I searched and couldnt find anything,
New update released by HTC today.
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=0&dl_id=839
New update for SIM Contacts?
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=0&dl_id=839
This update for HTC HD2 allows for contacts stored on your SIM card to be properly displayed on your phone along with Phone and Exchange Server contacts.
The problem is, unlike last hotfixes, this comes in form of a RUU, so you'll loose your stuff on the phone.
It also says it's for ROMs equal or inferior to 1.59.XXX.X., which either means we'll have a new ROM soon, or that this is the new ROM (1.59). I haven't tryed it yet, but I downloaded it in case HTC deletes it. Anyone had a go yet?
What do you mean we will loose the stuff on our phone?
Funny, how did you find this update. Because its not listed anywhere in their support section......
Indeed, it is not listed on Worldwide or UK software downloads for the HD2. Could be that this is a leaked link that is about to published or a malicious link. Im not in a a paranoid mood but I'll not install until its visible in the official software download list.
Ah, if you select "Update" as the category it appears. Bad web site management means it doesn't appear in the "All" category.
I follow their RSS news. The minute there is an update, my RSS reader notifies me =)
That's how I found out.
jrvenge, using the RUU (ROM Update Utility) it warns you that "Installing this update will delete all the information on your pda phone", because it's installing a new ROM.
I just don't have the guts to backup everything, do it myself and then through all the trouble to get everything back into the phone, just because of SIMs contacts...
I did that but still nothing...

It is the latest Radio-ROM 15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07 and nothing more.
Nope, it didnt even show up on RSS...strange, anyways Im still waiting for the Swedish ROM update to come. Strange why it takes them so long just to translate the rom.. :S
I got it before it's gone. File name RUU_LEO_07662_20091217.exe with file size 12,636KB.
Whats gone ? I can still access it trough the link given..
It's back online!

Why would one mask Radio ROM update for a "SIM Contacts fix". HTC should fire cryptoidiots that have occupied their site. Guessing what another update with a silly description actually does never been so hard.
How are you so sure it is the latest radio version?
Did you install it?
I downloaded the update from their Asia site. It's a ~12 MB file. It showed up on my RSS feed, but, again, I subscribed from HTC SEA site.
Anyway, even though it looks like a RUU, it's not very drastic. I've applied the update. The only change I've noticed is that it upgraded my radio to 2.06.51.07. I was - and still am - using the stock ROM 1.48.707.2 (71294) WWE. I didn't have any contacts saved to my SIM sard, so can't really comment on the the efficacy of the actual objective of the target. :-S
Didn't delete my data or anything like that. So, didn't need to restore any backup.
Hmmmmm
donest work form Vodafone stock roms

The radio version is the same as rom 1.61. Battery life of rom 1.61 is a lot better than the 1.48 version. Is this also what you experienced.

No need to flash, a comparison is enough. It is binary identical to the Radio ROM from 1.61.

anybody upgrade ?
A New Official ROM has been released????
Upgrade available on Europe site but does not yet appear on HTC Australia website. None of these fixes/upgrades look very useful, apart from maybe "Enhanced Opera’s browsing performance while running other applications" but I never had any problems with Opera anyway...
Is it possible they may include other fixes not listed on their site (such as the memory leak problem?) - here's hoping!!
I'm downloading it from the global website...
I'll try to upload and post the link here when I'm done.
*edit*
Got it... did not flash it yet...
Here is the link:
Code:
http://rapidshare.com/files/221229743/_HTC_Touch_3G_MR2009_RUU_Jade_HTC_Europe_2.32.401.2_Radio_Sign_12.41.30.16_0.41.30.12_Ship.exe
I installed it, but it has become extremely slow.
I do have to add that my phone just had the Hard-SPL stuff and the other update on it which or both unofficial.
I am currently doing a hard reset and hoping for the best.
I have no idea if it is because of the other updates. My guess would be not, because the rom is overwritten.
I installed the ROM upgrade from HTC, it ****ed up my device real bad: phone module not working, device boot up in aprox 1 min, after 3 mins Touch Flo not started, it restarts by itself.
I did hard reset and nothing happens.
I,m reinstalling jademan superrom!
I hope that works!
I reverted back to the original Dutch Rom dump.
Which is the thing that works for me.
The phone boots up normally, but starts to get slow at the moment when it is installing itself. I am going to mail HTC about it.
I might try to install it with the original rom I have now. But I believe that it isn't an update, but a new installation anyways. Which means that it doesn't matter what you had before it.
HTC Touch 3G ROM Upgrade (EU)
Hello people,
I downloaded the official european rom upgrade from HTC Europe just an hour ago, but I'm not able to flash. When I start the procedure, active sync just quits and the flash procedure also quits with an error message after a couple of seconds. So how can I make active sync not to quit? Did I miss something?
Thanks in advance for your kind suggestions!
Rom Upgrade successfull
I just did the rom update and yes after installation my unit was very slow...
A few reboots later (after the network wizard has run) the unit was still slow.
I verified the network connections settings (did not change anything!) and strangely after that my unit was'nt slow anymore but as fast as before the upgrade.
For the moment I'm staying with this new official rom...
Kind regards,
Jos.

just did the upgrading, everything seems fine, except can't use M2DC anymore (cause touch flo stop working), have to find a new way to remove "starhub" craps
I got it and my phone is much better. It seems to work faster and the radio signal is best.
Did you see that the upgrade is only for a few languages? Maybe you should do the upgrade after insert the serial number and see if the new ROM is good for your phone.
[The update is available for the following languages: English (Pan Europe, UK and East Europe), Italian, Dutch, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian.]

After the update, M2DC crashed on me... BUT i realised if it was disconnected from the PC, it works perfectly fine.
However, i faced 2 other problems...
1) Date is no longer displayed on the main screen
2) No more footprints
Do you all face the same problems? or is it just me ?
Footprints is not a feature of Jade but from Iolite.
However, you can install Footprints, but the tab in TF2D is not available:

that was the same with the original ROM, I have not upgraded and my activesync always comes back even if I close it.
the activesync is on more frequent with the new rom
i notice its on only when i use my gps
after upgrade its constantly on
but the plus point is the gps really react a lot faster now
so what can we do ...
With my serial number, I got this:
RUU_Jade_hTC_Asia_WWE_StarHub_2.32.723.2_Radio_Sign_12.41.30.16_0.41.30.12_Ship.exe
But I don't want the StarHub things because I'm not from Singapore and I need a normal Asia rom so I borrowed my sister's serial number and got this:
RUU_Jade_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.32.707.2_Radio_Sign_12.41.30.16_0.41.30.12_Ship.exe
Who needs the 2 above roms, let me know.
For the Asia rom, it works fine for me so far, the active sync problem can be resolve by adding server source and change the settings to manually. But funny thing was, I cannot remove the server, once I remove it will come back again everytime so I just leave it there and active sync won't on anymore until I use it.
Does the second asia rom upgrade without the starhub logo when you finished? Please share. I hate the logo after my upgrade with the first one.
can you give me the two roms?thanks.
i have found the rom in htc.com ,but only found the last version.
can you give the 2 roms for me ?
thanks.

Just a quick question about the new Rom Update.
I'm currently waiting for T-Mobile to release there version of the Rom update from version 1.43 to 1.66.
I can get a copy of the 1.66 official Rom Update from the HTC website (my mate has a HTC HD2 which is unbranded).
Could i update my Rom using the download? Would it cause any problems to the phone?
Many thanks.
any noticed anything different?
I have an Uk version on O2 but its not taking my serial... any ideas?
surely I don't have to wait the O2 customised rom?
Does this at all stop the sluggishness and freezing from time to time
O2 and VF both run locked ROMs - the S/Ns need to be cleared by O2/VF/HTC to allow download...
any workarounds? ;-D

After I update the rom to the latest 1.66, do i need to install the previous updates on the htc website such as the sim contacts and camera fix.

For future reference, it tells you the max ROM version that you need the hotfixes for, on the page where you download them.
In this instance, there haven't been any that have had a ROM version higher than 1.66, so no - you don't need them

I haven't found anything noticeable except a lower screen sensitivity and some value added applications.
Before I update my ROM, I read this
"The update will take up to 30 minutes, DO NOT interrupt the update process, make/receive phone calls, disconnect the device from the PC, or press any buttons until the process has been completed."
And wondered how I can stop any incoming calls, messages, mails etc. Should I just put it into airplane mode or something?
After installing the new 1.66 ROM, is it necesarry to install the peviously released hotfixe's, or are these already implemented in the newest ROM?
Already integrated.
Depending on your language, however, the latest SMS fix (of 24/01) has to be applied, too. If you are using a cooked rom with 1.66 base you'll also have to install the latest SMS hotfix.
Doesn't say it's for the UK WWE 1.66 ROM and it's not on the UK support page so not gonna bother unless it appears...I delete every SMS after reading anyway so never been an issue...
EDIT: OK, I lie it is there, didn't see it beneath the ROM update itself. Might give it a go, can't hurt can it?

If you are using the version they have in their support section, you as UK client don't need to apply it .
It is in the support page BUT if you click on the download button it goes back to the Support front end so guessing it's not needed as I've got the new ROM...

It normally states in the update which ROM it applies to. Which means that all of them (excluding the Valendar View) don't need to be applied to 1.66.
The only one which doesn't is the Calendar View update which says
"Note: This update is only applicable to all ROM Version" now I don't beleive this as they would surely apply it to a ROM.
Maybe someone else can help whith this one.

Yes, because the UK version has been released AFTER the SMS update, you are already good to go and fully updated. However, in other countries the ROM update came earlier and the new SMS fix is probably not in those yet.
Thanks for the help.
I'm on the Norwegian ROM, so i guess I'm ok then. (Sms update has been removed from HTC site after the ROM update came out.)

I second that. Send a mail to HTC yesterday to make sure the WWE rom update I was about to download already contained previous updates and they replied that it wasn't necessary to install them again. (It was in Dutch so that's why I'm not attaching the mail).
what version after hard-reset?
i have a question. I had update the ROM with the 1.66 version. If i now execute a hard-reset what version should i be with? 1.43 (original) or 1.66?

1.66 (if flashed officially).

HSPL = Hard (flashed) SPL so it will be 1.66 still..

Greetings to you all...
I apologise ahead of time, my noobness is about to show through...
I will be getting my HD2 on the 3rd from Phones4U with a Vodafone contract and will be wanting to do the ROM update to 1.66. I am wondering about the following things:
1. Has this gone wrong for anyone and should it go wrong what is the fix?
2. Having never done this before and not wanting to get it wrong - does the downloaded update have all the tools I need to do the update? Or is there a specific piece of software I need from HTC?
3. Tried to follow this thread regarding the new SMS update and am not sure regarding the outcome - if I am on ROM 1.66 do I need to do the SMS update as well?
Thanks in advance for all willing to answer what are probably basic question - this is my first real smartphone and I am keen beyond belief but also do not want to mess it up...
P.S. Is there a manual in the box? (ROLL ON WEDNESDAY!)
Scott (In anticipation)
Double post - sorry!
Hi,
I got my HD2 from Dial-A-Phone (Phones4U) and it was an unlocked version so all updates from HTC are available. It'll likely come with the 1.48 ROM on it so first thing to check is whether this is correct. Go into Settings>About phone>Software version and it'll be in there.
Assuming yu are on 1.48 then go to the HTC UK support site and download the ROM update from the 25/01/2010. The other updates are rolled into this so you don't need them.
HTC UK Support - HD2
Now, charge up your phone and connect to your PC. If using Vista/Windows 7 it should recognise it being a Windows Phone and connect up using the Windows Mobile Device Center. Once done, make sure it says connected and then run the ROM file (which is an .exe file) and follow the instructions.
If, however, the phone is already on 1.66 then nothing more is needed!!
Excellent - really appreciate your feedback - I am, for once, wishing my weekend away so that Wednesday will get here quicker...

Hi, how can you tell if your HD2 is unlocked?
I recently bought my HTC HD2 from Vodafone UK, it has a ROM 1.43.405.1 and I cannot update the ROM from HTC website because after insert my SN in the validation box it tells me I cannot get the update....
What should I do?
I saw many ROMs on 4shared but I think they not the same in the HTC site...If they are which one of the should I get for my HTC and why? Will I be able to use my phone with my UK Sim?
Help please...
Windows on your ROM is licensed software, and you bought the license implicitly with your Leo, therefore is it "not possible" to just change ROM.
Having said that , google the forum a bit for SSPL and/or HSPL. there are several (graphical) guides that will tell you how to use them (sticky threads).
good luck!
anyone? someone? help me!

No, doing a hard reset will only ever restore it to the rom you last flashed.
To get back to 'as you bought it' you need to find the rom that matches your device.
(for example in your case, voda UK, you find this rom
RUU_Leo_Vodafone_UK_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26. 50.07U_2.04.50.22_2_Ship.exe
)
If you then need to get back to stock, and remove HSPL, you can do it with that rom. (not quite as simple as just flashing it, , see the HSPL thread for how to remove HSPL)

Like I mentioned I am a noob lol....I got here just by trying to understand why couldnt I update my ROM.
One more question, each ROM completely cleans the before it, right? The features do not stuck up (add on)?
I would advise AGAINST blindly leeching any ROM from any online file sharer.
check this forum, read a bit, and select a ROM from a chef that has cooked something you like (speed, looks like stock, removed HTC, removed bloatware, etc etc). I've tried many, and almost all on this forum are excellent (some are more excellent than others though)..
Flashing a ROM completely cleans ALL settings on your phone, all data is gone, besides whatever is on your SD card.
same if you select Settings/Wipe Device option from the start menu.

Be aware that whilst flashing wipes all your old data/settings and such like, it doesn't necessarily wipe the old rom before flashing the new one, just flashes over it.
Roms can be different file sizes, (just compare a few RUU_Signed.nbh file sizes) so sometimes files can be left over from the previous rom. If you start getting random resets and freezes when you didnt before, it could be a sign of a bloated rom. Have a read of the mtty sticky. It looks a little overwhelming at first read, but dead simple really, and basically formats your rom before you flash the new rom.
my 2 pence here...
get the official WWE 1.66 ROM and see if that helps the phone, the 1.43 VF ROM is crap and both 1.48 and 1.66 are miles better so first thing is to give these a go. If, after successfully installing it, you wanna try something else then do so...
and read the n00b thread at the top of this forum...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
it tells you what to do, with videos if needed...
Hi, I have the same vf handset and was sick of the crappy ROM, I upgraded yesterday after weeks of research and was surprised how easy it was.
However, having had a day to test out my new 1.66 ROM, I have unfortunately found some problems and part of me think maybe I should have waited a little longer for vf to release it officially.
I'm hoping you guys will be able to help again as it may just need different tweaks to the settings...
1. The first problem is that Opera is slightly different, the settings tab has changed, it no longer allows zooming (including pinch zooming) and the pages are not displayed as full width. I have played with all the setting I can in Opera and BsB Tweaks but no joy.
2. I can no longer access TV catchup through Skyfire. The advertisement plays as normal and then it says "non-UK, unauthorised". Is this because it is a WWE ROM and not a UK one? Why isn't there a specific UK ROM like there was for 1.48?
3. Although the alarm volume bug seems to have been fixed, the alarm popup doesn't come up any more when it goes off, making it very difficult to "snooze" or "dismiss".
4. Several error messages have come up relating to the actual phone app, messaging app and audiomanager. The phone has also crashed and gone slow a bit and overall the messaging app is a little more buggy despite it appearing to send all messages.
Any advice would be much appreciated as this does seem as though it could be a much better ROM with some great benefits.
1.48 was also a WWE ROM - there hasn't been a set UK one other than ISP-based ones

Fair enough. I was just going by what it was implying on the HTC support page. 1.48 specifically says UK whereas 1.66 simply says WWE and makes no mention of UK.
Does anyone have any advice on the issues I'm having?
Also, if I wanted to revert back to the vf 1.43 ROM using the SD card to remove HSPL, how do I know the file I've downloaded from the shared folders is exactly the same as I had before? I read that it is more risky flashing without HSPL as you have less chance of fixing it if something goes wrong, does this also go for the method of reverting back using the SD card as it is removing the HSPL?
Sorry if other people have already seen this, I did a search and couldn't find anything. I just noticed that T-Mobile have released (via HTC) an official UK (and Germany and Czech Republic) a 1.72 version of the ROM for the HD2 on the 26th April 2010 (2 days ago).

Im installing now...where do I find that info ? biggest noob of em all
Is this just for T Mobile usres as the name sugests??
Im on O2, completely new to Winmo and smart phones at that!!!
Not rele sure what i need to do, but im trying to sort things out.
No to 3.5..... shocker
Manila 2012 but I can't see any differences over the former 1920..... please feel free to correct me
Personally, I can't see / feel many if any decent changes.......
If you install, your phone will be as you originally received it (save the updated software) so you will have to re-install everything...
If I had the previous 1.43 I would flash back...
I havent added anything as yet as i only had it since monday!!
Sorry to sound dumb, was is flash back??
Then you have nothing to worry about....
is there some sort of changelog for this?
please do report on what its like, particularly stability and messaging
then i might do my first HD2 flash...
i upgraded from original 1.43 stock rom and must say its a lot smoother than before, doesnt freeze up as much very little lagging.
no real difference in battery life, maybe a touch better but the main difference for me is that HTC messaging works instead of me having to rever back to wm messaging.
also, it came with .net 3.5 so i dont know why others have said it doesnt.
well im sold!
will DL and flash tonight!
thanks for the report jonyid
Any Ideas
Hi Guys
I cant seem to be able to download the T-Mobile rom from HTC's site. When I enter my serial number the site says that Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device. Yet I am a UK user on T-Mobile with rom version 1.66.405.2 what am I doing wrong?

What ROM are you using, as T-MobUK have only had 1.43 and now 1.72?
I am also with T-MobUK but I quickly dumped ROM 1.43, HSPL'd and went for the HTC standard WWE 1.66 ROM. Since T-MobUK 1.72 is WWE1.66 with T-Mob bloatware added, then there is no point updating.
If you really want the 1.72 ROM, I'll get it for you.
Hi Please ignore above I have just discovered even though I bought my phone as a t-mobile one it is in fact the unlocked phone, so am I right in understanding that the latest rom for my phone (according to HTC's Site) is 166.405.2

I recently upgraded my Tmobile 1.43 Rom to the new 1.72.110.4 from the HTC website. So far it seems to be ok. Not much of a difference: Solitaire and Bubble breaker have been added, You Tube, Bing search and one or two additions as well. Most importanly however is the performance of the HTC messaging program. I used PIM back toback up for my text messages, contacts, calender. Ugraded the ROM, (took about 10mins or less) and restored text messages from the back up file.
Restore process showed me 7000+ texts copied to the device. Restarted the device, checked messaging and got the "restoring messages" status bar. Took about 1 hour since then, I have noticed a marked improvement in the HTC messaging application. Can now continue using the phone even when a text comes in, can delete without having to wait ages for the device to start up again.
BTW I have some apps installed: TomTom 6, Swype, Skype, TCPMP player, Registry editor, etc.
Hope that information helps or encourages someone!
does anyone know if its possible to go back to the 1.43 ROM??? (just curious....)
Noob question here... as I have flashed my device and installed a custom ROM (or many) already will this take HSPL off my device? Will it be ok to do the normal install or will it brick my device?
I'm just trying to get my phone back to stock Rom levels as I need to return it to Tmobile and this is the only place I've managed to find the TmobileUK stock ROM.
Help? Please?!
Can anyone help with this at all? Please?!
