Confused Downloaded ROM 1.66, HD2 says 1.48 - HD2 General

I´m a little bit confused now: I downloaded ROM-Update Ver. 1.66 from the German HTC-Support-Website and installed it.
Now - when installing all these wonderful tweaks from XDA - I looked up the Page "Software-information" and I read now:
OS: 5.2.21869
Manila: 2.5.1921
ROM-Date: January 11th 2010 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ROM-Version: 1.48.407.1. xxxxx GER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rechecked in my files: I updated ROM on Feb. 3rd with HTC-ROM-Update 1.66
Rechecked on HTC-Support-site: still reads ROM-Upgrade 1.66 on Feb. 2nd 2010 (which I installed !)
How the heck does this come ?
(Now I don´t wonder anymore why some tweaks don´t work on mine )

Did you use SPB backup at all?

Yes, Eddy !
I backed up entire ROM/RAM/System State with SPB Backup, did the ROM-Update and saved back with SPB-Backup after successful ROM-Upgrade.
Shouldn´t I have proceeded like this ?
Tx in advance for Your taking care of me

thats probably the issue, you have restored registry/system settings fromthe old rom
ideally you should just back up the contacts, txts etc but not the system files

Wow, Tx ! But that would mean to always reinstall the 40 progs I´m running on my HD2 and the reg hacks, and the themes, and the tweaks ..........
THAT´s hell !!!
Any easier way to do it ?

That's what I had to do....!
GoodLuck!

It's usually a bad idea to do restores from different ROM versions, e.g. 1.48 to 1.66 in your case. Sucks, but the problems you'll avoid are worth it.

Tx ! Next time I will undergo the hassle to reinstall everything manually
BTW: Can anyone give me now the specs for the 1.66 GER stock-ROM esp. which Manila Version it runs ?

Might be worth looking at SASHIMI.

Tx mate, will go through the tutorials, though was hard to find the original SASHIMI-site . Hope it works for me, I´m just a noob ...........

SPB Backup says: ROM-upgrade mode is dedected automatically. Can I trust this ?

If you don't have any other reason to flash, you don't need it. Maybe the radio is a reason.

update from wm6.0 to wm6.1 - easy

hi,
today i test the bepe 0.66 german wm 6.1
1.) before i made a backup of my full system.
2.) dump my old german rom for reverse chance
3.) then i upgrade the rom from bepe 0.66 german wm6.1
4.) (and now the funny part ...) i restored my system from the old wm6.0 so that i waste a lot of time to install ~100 programms and a lot of reg hacks
-> and its working almost perfect.
but it was not really good, i think, and so it is better to install it brand new all apps.

I just got my HTC Touch Cruise back from repair and have the newest Roms installed (not WM6.1 but WM6.0. I can post the RAW files too if someone wants them.
Since the repair my connections and sound are very very much better than before. I have no problems anymore.
I only dumped my Rom and rebuild it. I have not tested it, because my device works great now. Please let me know if it works for you.

It is only the OS. I wasn't able to rebuild .raw files to Radio and Splash rom. Maybe someone can help me with that.
And here I have uploaded my .raw files. Maybe someone else can extract the radio rom than?

And here I have made a compile of the original Dutch dumped rom with my version 1.28.404.2. It is WM6. Please let me know if you like it.

Warranty is most likely to be declined if using a custom rom.
As said before, the dumped rom i tried, it's incomplete. HTC home and some other programs are not installed by default. I suggest to wait a few days till I have some time to make a custom rom from the dump that is complete.
If you have some time, you can make a dump of your rom. (maybe i can try that one also?) So you always have a base to return too.
b.t.w. wait for syrius R1, the r0 has some irritating bugs (or some call the features)
Here you can find the original warranty Dutch Rom.

thank you for the answer
i guess installing the official upgrade when its out is also good for warranty? or not?
I quess but since it's not available, the previous post of a dutch rom is a good resolution
Or try this rom:

Noob Needing Help With Rom Flashing

Hi all
been on this site a while now and with 02 stopping the download of there official 6.1 release it has forced me to look elsewhere,
I have looked online here and decided i would like this one,
M2D Diamond W/3D Drivers - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441079
I knwo i will need to install hard spl first, the main quetsion was that this says that no radio come with it,
Do i need to find a radio rom? or will it use my existing one?
I really have no idea! any help would be appriciated!
Thanks
From my minimal experience, I think that the ROM will use your existing radio. At least this is what happend to me when flashing ROMs without radio. As a suggestion for radio I say the 1.59.42.23 version. I see better signal.
If you don't flash a new radio it will use the existing one.
Normaly cookers say what radio they recomend, i'm using myself 1.59.42.23 with good results.

Hi,
Radio 1.64.08.21 is not compatible with latest WM 6.1 ROMs, if you flash it you will not have Camera and phone working correctly.
regards
What would you reccomend to be the best verison for it?
1.59.42.15 or 1.59.42.23
The best and most compatible radio for cooked Wm6.1 is in my opionion 1.59.42.23!
1.64.08.21 is NOT the newest one - don't wonder about the higher version number - it was portetd from another device!
I have now downlaoded 1.59.42.23 radio,
if it doesnt work can i always revert to an older radio rom?
also does anyone know what radio the official 02 xda 6.1 relase has since i think i have them at the momnet,
Anyway i can fin this out?
Is it worth upgrading?

New Manila 2D for Iolite WM6.1

Can we install (eg. with a .cab file) the new Manila 2D (see attach picture - Weather/Flipclock) on our orginal WM6.1 ROM ?
Hello Treo, try this thread.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541750
It will work. However I would recommend you to install first hard SPL and than a new WM 6.5 rom with this theme.......is much more complete, smoother and functional....
succes.
Frank C.
it doesn't work!

it doesn't work!!!! i try it right now...
i can't change original rom before a year because i could lose italian guarantee...
The thread is verry confusing me and it isn't entirely coordinated on the Iolite.
When I update a non-HTC ROM I will lose the guarantee, So I preffer an installation of Manila with a kind of .cab file.
After you install the HardSPL, you can always restore the original SPL to your device, if you have an issue with it... And then send it back for guarantee...

But how to restore our stock rom ?
You can dump it from your device before you flash a custom rom, and then rebuild a "stock" rom with the dumps with ervius kitchen...
Then if you need to send it back for warranty, you can flash the stock rom, then the stock spl, and you are good to go!
That is IF you can flash back, ie your screen and your usb port are still working...
I have this running and it works fine, the only problem is that the default blue O2 background is still behind the flip clock. Any ideas how this can be fixed???
