i have from today htc hd2 on contract from o2,and after reading about this phone i was find out i have all old softwares,i was trying update on htc web site but this link dont like me after when i was writing my serial number.
At the moment i have OS.Vers:5.2.21864(21864.5.0.81), Manila vers: 2.5.19202525.0 and my ROM Version is !!! : 1.43.206.4 (70315)WWE ,well to be honest with you guys im not sure what to do with that?i was upgrade from that popular iphone3gs,they don't do it this for the users buuuu
Thanks for any help,would be great if i will know what i can update on my phone
if that is important i running windows 7 home premium 32bit
what version were you trying to upgrade to?
If you only just got it today, try it for a bit first, i got an o2 one two weeks ago, no problems at all. Dont go rushing to update if you dont have to till you need to.
The O2 HD2 also have a branded ROM, so you wont be able to download from HTC unless O2 permit. Even if you get a hold of the ROM it will still fail unless you HSPL (or other method).
As samsamuel said. I've also not had the problems that others have written about. That's probably the reason O2 haven't issued an upgrade.
Leave it be and enjoy

Hello,
I just tried to download the official 6.1 upgrade from HTC's website, but when I submit my serial number (verified under the battery and on the Touch's box) The website denies access to the download saying that Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device..
Is this problem common ? Is there a workaround ?
Are you from France? If yes - try official 6.1 FRA ROM here:

No s/n needed!!!
Thank you !
Not for India..
Yeah its not available for India too... although I don't know if this applies for Asia in general. Also we get the Mapking gps and not Tomtom. I guess that may be one reason... or something else...

Ok I see.. well here is the Radio ROM version according to the Device Information screen: Radio Version: 1.58.25.14 Protocol: 25.69.30.05W. Hope it helps.
just got my cruise yesterday, already did hard-spl using olipros hard-spl. also upgraded to wm6.1 i got my wm6.1 rom from wiki of polaris. wm6.1 has tomtom but i didnt use it, i installed mapking(comes with the package) on my polaris. you can also find the radio rom in the wiki.
thanx a lot guys... with the info i was able to downgrade from the official HTC WM 6.1 ... am able to use custom ROMs now... am basically at the same version levels as KULL now... the only difference being the protocol... i have 25.69.30.05H to his 25.69.30.05W... dont know what that means... from what i could gather 'H' supports a few more bands for GSM and UTMS than a 'W'. doesnt really make a diff to me... but i havent been able to connect to GPRS on airtel... dont know if the W/H diff is doing that... sorting that out now... thanx again
WM 6.1 for Asia / India
Hi,
I'm in India too and want to find out if others in Asia / India have upgraded to this official WM 6.1!
Is it worth moving to 6.1 and if so where can I download that WWE 6.1 ROM? As someone mentioned, I cannot download it from the official HTC site with my serial number as it seems its not available for my region.
I did hard SPL earlier and now running udk version on that which is very stable and I'm using it for about 5-6 months now - no issues at all. Dont want to get into any trouble while upgrading to this official one, but if its smooth and similar stability, I would like to move to the official ROM for now.
Thank you.
I don't know about the rest of Asia, but surely not available yet for India. I also got an email confirmation from Support recently. Will have to wait and watch, I think they were in a hurry to bring out ROM update for the Diamond since the launch it has received very luke warm response also got some bad word of mouth publicity where people found it buggy. Guess it should come some time...
As any one tried the new ROM update from HTC in the UK ?

Bit outdated mate. Dated 7th April 2009. Looks most likely like version 1.56 which has been incorporated into a lot of WM6.1 roms. However newer releases including 1.57 & 1.59 have been released. Latest cooked roms already include either 1.57 or 1.59
Shipped roms can be found in wiki here mate
not in date ?

If your phone if orange branded then this is the reason why HTC says the firmware update is not for your phone.

My new Touch HD came last week with this ROM on it - it's on T-Mobile but SIM unlocked. very stable, no major problems other than the fact I could do with a better radio support since the T-Mobile coverage where I am is lousy, but the Touch is still worse than my SonyEricsson W950i.
Will 1.57 or 1.59 ROMs help on the radio side ?
answer from HTC
Dear Customer, Thank you for contacting our Customer Support Center. An IMEI check of your device indicated that it is an exclusive product, branded to the HT849KD09700 mobile network.

As your handset is an exclusive product from a distributor, you will also not be able to get the HTC website support files as this is only for genuine original HTC branded devices.
Im asking orange now for more infomation
Please let us know how Orange responds. I too would like to try a new ROM update on my Orange TOuch HD.

I just changed the title to refelct the subject mater better.
You are facing the same problem as most of us which is why this site is loved so much.
In my case I have 1.14 German rom sold by sunrise.
My S/N also does not work on the 1.56 shipped roms from HTC.
They will also not sell me a WWE version of Blackstone.
So the only choice I have is to USPL / HSPL the device and get myself either a cooked or shiiped rom.
Now I am lucky as the branding of the device (flash screen, ect) is on no intrest to me, on top of that Sunrise gives me no add on Cabs that I need or even want.
My aprroaching sunrise has got me no were.
My hope is that you might get somewere and that we might beable to get a shipped rom that we can add to our collection.
Good luck
slightly off topic, but what is the difference between the WWE and European versions of the ROM available on the Wiki ? I'm currently on WWE 1.56 (T-Mobile UK) and have upgraded the radio from 1.13 to 1.14 without any effect. Wondering if the Europe version is any different, also wondering if it would help any of you locked onto Orange ?
no responce from orange
No responce from orange yet , will keep you guys upto date , chnaging the radio wont work on the Orange ROM , in the forum there are loads of folk who have kiled there phone and had to go back to " factory " settings .
I have written a letter of complaint to orange as they have said that there are no plans to release any updated ROM versions in the future. I await a call from orange complaints department. Im not expecting anything. If you put a non-orange ROM on your phone then you void your warranty. Great service me thinks not!
This is the latest rom from orange. check this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517803
still nothign
still nothing from orange, I cant see wht orange wont " upgrade " the rom , even HTC this fixes certain problems... I will ask them again and get back to you ..
This reminds me so much of a past experience I had with a phone network company. Yes it maybe Orange!!!
Same thing as you I wrote and wrote. In the end I got so fed up I upgraded with a custom rom that suited my needs. I DID however take note that by doing a custom rom/radio upgrade screwed the warrenty...HOWEVER I read on xda dev many threads on backing up the original rom along (and more importantly) HOW TO downgrade back incase the phone needed replacing via the Networks Warrenty.
Orange IMHO are the best network out there for many reasons. But I guess they are of the opinion, that as the rom that come with it works without too many customers complaining, then they won't and need not offer an update.
For the record. I updated to Miri v12 and have followed this rom genious for months. My Blackstone runs like a bullet from a gun, and is as reliable as I want. Everything works on it and I now know exactly HOW to downgrade the phone should it happen to go wrong and need to be shipped back to Orange for replacement....or repair.
Read....read and read some more...and you'll end up loving you Blackstone more than you would have.
I have just spoken to customer support. They are now saying that the first year of warranty is with HTC and that in her opinion they would not void the warranty if you install the official rom, even though HTC say the ROM upgrade is not compatible !?!
Yea I am having exactly the same problem, I did try two updated roms from the wiki, The WWE 1.59 and the EU 1.59 both worked as far as resetting my phone got to 1% and then came up on the PC screen to say it was not supported by my provider? Would I be able to use one of these roms and flash it using another method? I have seen a few other methods of doing it?
Also would it be benificial to just use a cooked rom if I can't get one from Orange? Would I still be able to connect into their network afterwards or would I need to input a whole lot of settings?

may be worth checking my posts at the end of the "Dummys guide...." in the ROM section and adding your voice
Cool thanks will do

are there any updates i need to apply?
thanks
mark
well go to the HTC website... you'll be in for a surprise!!
i see theres an update to down,load but the serial number i have has lots of IO or is that 10's in it
also if i do the rom upgrade will i still need to install all the other updates or is this a fix-all?
Ive entered loads of combinations all seem to be invalid except one which states
Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
???
It sounds like you got your phone from O2, Vodafone or T-Mobile rather than a 3rd party like Phones4U. This means that you can't just download and apply HTC updates.
Fear not - go to the Leo ROM development section on this forum, put HSPL on your phone and then load the latest ROM update from HTC (v1.66). This includes all the latest updates.
Use this UK serial number to download the ROM upgrade:
HT9AZNW00968
wow thanks for that...
only 2 days in and im flashing a rom... how l33t of me lolz.

thnx 4 the quick reply dude.
can you specify what i'm downloading?
by the looks of it, its an original release right?
Sure, this is Blackstone Shipped ROM, your phone will return to the original state
Why don't you go to the htc website and download the latest version they have for your phone and region, remember that the last radios aren't always the best, the radio it's suitable for your region.
"Why don't you go to the htc website and download the latest version they have for your phone and region"
Because according to phone IMEI he (she?) might get wrong/unusable language.
Or might not get a choice at all, since some IMEIs are not supported for update...
For instance, I'm getting choice to DL latest 6.1 ROM in German... which I don't speak or understand.
And yes, Germany was closest land where I could get unlocked Blackstone at that time...
allright thnx you guys

Hi
I've been waiting ages for the T-Mobile UK ROM upgrade for the HD2 but nothing has appeared on the HTC downloads page as yet, even though Vodaphone, Orange and the generic one seems to be available. I get the feeling that T-Mobile won't be releasing the update
Anyway, I've been looking thru the stickies on XDA-Dev and found a ROM update for branded T-Mobile called RUU_Leo_TMO_UK_3.14.110.1 which I am now downloading
Is this an unofficial update? Or maybe a pre-release from T-Mobile?
More importantly, is this safe to install? My specs are:
Manila: 2.5.20121429.0
ROM: 1.72.110.4 (86525) WWE
ROM date: 04/02/10
Radio: 2.07.51.22_2
Protocol: 15.32.50.07U
I've been hanging around confused on the XDA-Dev forums on and off for the last 6 months or so. I'm pretty apprehensive about installing anything ROM-based for fear of bricking my lovely HD2. I don't wanna get a new one as I'm not even halfway thru my 24-month contract!
Anyway, hope you can help. I hate sounding like such noob. I fix PCs for a living, but this is doing my head in!!
The RUU_Leo_TMO_UK_3.14.110.1 is a leaked UK T-Mobile stock ROM.
Don't worry, this rom will not brake your device, I have uploaded these rom sins 2011-01-06 and in the meanwhile it was bean downloaded 293 times without anyone mentioned that thy have a problem.
Hey where to find the download link for T-Mobile Uk rom upgrade
Can you please guide me in this??
Many Thanks in Advance
