Recommended re flashing to official roms?

Everyone says it is always safer to flash an official rom between custom rom installs, but when I do, it changes my radio and ipl/spl to an undesirable version.
Is there an official nk.nbf file without the radio or ipl/spl available that I can use? I searched all over, even wizard wiki, but cant seem to find any.
Thank You in advance!

I will upload the T-Mobile Official Rom without IPL/SPL/GSM shortly. I can even leave out the Official Splash screens if you like. Just let me know and it will be done.
EDIT:: Rom is uploading as we speak. Rom includes T-Mobile Official WM5 OS, HTC screen, Splash screen, Extended Rom.
Removed from Official Rom:: GSM/IPL/SPL>> Link Will be added shortly.

Wow, thanks dharvey! Splash screen omitting not necessary.
Thank You for your assistance!

Here it is.
This is the Official T-Mobile WM5 Rom exactly as it would come on a brand new T-Mobile MDA only this version has the IPL/SPL/GSM removed so that you do not have to re-flash the 3.08 IPL/SPL and your custom radio every time you upgrade.
Click here to go to download page.

Downloading now..
Thanks again!

I did this as much for me though as I did it for everyone else. When it comes to flashing new roms, I must say I am an addict and I like to have a clean base to start from before flashing a new rom and this is perfect because I don't have to reflash my IPL/SPL and GSM every time.
Hopefully someone will upload that to ftp so everyone can access it easily.

Use 'Romupdateutility' also called as 'RUU'. Rest on screen. Follow. If you don't have the RUU, download it, search for it first.

Thanks for the share..can't use this one because its not a 1.58****.
But because you put only the .nhb file over here i made a new file incl. the custom rom update utility.
Download here:

Yes. It is not full web address.

RE:
I've already install after 1.59.44.02 and i don't see any changes but works fine.. GPS also it so fast like prevision..
Best Regards,

thank you all perfect

1.59.46.12 vs 1.59.44.02
Rom 1.59.46.12 needs to be really better than 1.59.44.02.....can hardly imagine that new rom offers faster and better GPS/signal....I have almost always 100% signal and GPS in 15 seconds...
Perhaps longer battery life.....this is always welcom......
Let us know.

Yes...I am now use on and DL,Official ROM from HTC HK WM6.1CHT.

So... i´ve got say that this radio is far more better in the battery.
I charge it every single day and since i´ve flash this radio i manage to
have extra half day of battery!
As far as the GPS or reception i saw no diference.
I´m with the M-Amine 2.0 Rom that cames with radio 1.59.42.23.
So thats my experience so far..
Thks for sharing.

I have tested it and must say it works great. Much better battery life and very quick GPS Fix. Allso verry much better signal strengt.

HTC 1.48 WWE Test ROM

There is a 1.48 WWE Test ROM in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578920.
The file is posted by SatScan.
I have been trying it out since yesterday evening.
For me the device has better reception, there is a new build of Manilla 2.5, plus some bugs have been fixed.

Can you flash this directly from a UK v1.43 ROM?
Does this ROM has a timebomb?

yes it can. but we dont know any of the consequences of fllashing it yet.
it could be timebombed,
it looks like theres multiple languages of the test rom appearing, so maybe it well become a 'ship' rom..

Do you have enough battery?
As it is known that the flash stops working after a certain percentage...

So, is it worth flashing at your opinion?

Cant flash it here, complains about Vendor ID.
I have a UK model one of the 1st batch from Vodafone UK, stock rom 1.43.405.1 (701240 WWE.
ROM date: 10/26/09
Any ideas?

You are out of luck sorry you'll have to wait for hardspl to be hacked so you can flash original htc firmware.

No problem waiting, it's confusing tho how some people with UK phones can flash and some cant, any idea how they differ?

There is really no need to start a new topic for every little detail ppl, a thread already exist where you must have downloaded the ROM, try to keep your questions there otherwise it ends up all over the place.

Please have your reviews and bug report back to the original thread.

HTC will only let me download T-Mobile UK ROM, where can i find alternative serials?

I would ideally like the most open and functional ROM possible, but i would like it to be stock, do HTC offer a generic ROM for all carriers perhaps?

I've been looking at that thread for a while now and i can't figure out which ROM to choose.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=577717
For some reason the releases go 142 166 143 by date, but the numbers are not acsending, so i'm not sure what to make of it.
Then there are the letters besides the dl links WWE NLD PTG, there are also multiple WWE ones for some reason...

please for the love of Jesus this is my last question, i can follow the guides after this point!

they are regions
wwe = world wide
the versions are by date of release, such as a specific rom for a specific vendor might be and earlier version tha nthe latest that htc provide

Calm down. Many members work during the day so don't get so fired up if replies take a while.
Go on like that and you may find you don't get any!

I was only being half serious.
In any case it's all done now, running 1.66, the improvement over t-mobile 1.42 is amazing, much more responsive, internet actually functions smoothly, files load faster, opera pinch zoom works way better and now actually loads full web pages rather than mobile versions.
Thanks for all your help.

Have you flashed your HD2 with this ROM yet? Are there any dead links in the start menu? Does everything work?

It worked. I just installed it. I haven't noticed anything not work yet.

This is the official rom for the tmous hd2. The rom that was leaked early was still in the early
stages. If u install this version u get a new radio. The earlier build was 2.14, this one comes with 2.15 radio. From what i can tell this version is alot more stable faster than the one that was leaked earlier. The reason there are these updates is to address issues that users experience. So if u wanna give it a try id recommend it.

Why would there be dead links in the Start menu? This is an official carrier ROM update...and I can myself confirm again that this is the real deal.

I've tried radio 2.15 and went back to 2.14. Loss of signal was very often.

MR
What does the MR mean ie "T-Mobile HTC HD2 MR" on the original update page the MR wasnt there .

does this update your location in the weather panel? I installed the leaked rom, which isn't.

this has nothing to do with the ROM its with the tower within your area. try switching to EDGE instead of 3G and see if it updates for you.

updated to official 3.14 ROM
I just updated my HD2 to the official ROM 3.14, so far I have not seen any slow downs loaded all of my cabs and messages from back up and it just zings. Will report back if I found any bugs. Cheers!

What does "MR" stand for in this?

I have yet to be able to find updates on the HTC website by scouting on there on my own.
Do they have a specific section for it because they don't even show the 2.13 update under the Tmo-HD2.

This is live on the TMO website now under wmupgrade.

I am still using stock rom (2.13) on my TMOUS HD2. I have not done hard-spl yet. Soon I'll like to do hard-SPL so that I can download custom ROMs/Radios.
Would it be possible to hard-spl even after updating my phone with the official 3.14 ROM? or should I hard-spl it first and then install this rom?
Thanks
