Sorry I did use the search tool but couldn't find an answer... What are the differences between these as well as advantages/disadvantages of each? With so many ROMs available I'd like to have something more to help me choose.
Thanks
I'd like to know this as well. All these different versions and ROMS using different ones etc is confusing. Also, the HSPL versions.. all confusing!
Base 2.10 has an awful and distorted noise in phone calls and awful bluetooth management not to mention more power consuption, these are the main disatvantages from my point of view.

A chef or somebody knowledgeable in cooking could answer this. The only thing I know for sure is that if you have HSPL (for the 1.43 stock roms), you can flash all base 2.10 roms and you can enable the 576 mb ram if you use a 2.07.50 or 2.08.50 radio because this what I got on my device as my signature states. Actually, I also managed to flash 2 1.72 roms, but I found them not to my liking so I stick to the 2.10 ones and I'm happy with them. Just to name a few: Astriaios, Energy, RTT Shock Star RTM, Leo firestorm, LIA Glass series, Ahen L6 series from xda, and from VIETPPC: Hoang An Leo, from PDAVIET: All, because they use only the 2.10 base. Most of these roms exist in 6.5 and 6.5.x so you guys will have the choice.
I stick to HSPL(1) because I think there is more choice in the 2.10 roms than in the 1.66 or 1.72 ones and because I don't want to limitate the choice of roms with HSPL2 for only a certain variety or roms (1.66 OR 1.72).
Hope that will help you guys to make a decision
Big thank to all the Chefs I mentioned above and to the others, you guys make all an awesome job!

The noise distortion and the battery consumption are RADIO related issues (if your radio keeps on searching for a signal, it will drain your battery quickly), not rom except for a well-known program whom shortcut had to be deleted from the Start menu because it was creating battery drain, I think it was Ameba or Swype, but I'm not sure. As for the bluetooth management, it may be issues concerning the Voice commands, but for the data sending/receiving, I never had problems with any of the above mentioned roms, except if the chef uploaded a version with a problem and reuploaded another version later.
Radios 2.06, 2.07 and 2.09 are said not to be power angry.
Miri has just lauched a version of his ROM with both bases over at HTCPedia for us to test.
I've been following this and it seens that, indeed, 1.72 (along with radio 2.09, that is not compatible with 2.XX) is better in terms of battery life and signal.
2.XX with latest WM builds seens to be much faster, on the other side...
Is still partial conclusions...
So is it basically a case of better all around performance in 2.10 and better battery life and signal in 1.72?

Don't know yet.
It seens that, in some places, radio 2.09, wich is incompatible with 2.10 base, performs much better in terms of battery life and signal.
I've experienced it myself.
Regarding performance, I can't tell you for sure it's base related of WM build related.
At this moment, considering the same ROM with the two bases, like Miris, I would go with base 1.72 with radio 2.09, but that's for my region. Don't know if it applies to everybody.
Just as reference, here's Miri's 2.10 base thread, where people asked for a 1.72 version for testing: http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1786
And here's 1.72 version with some valuable feedback: http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?p=52190#post52190
I think this is the best case for testing, since it's almost the same ROMs, only with diferent bases and radios (because of compatibility)

How does HSPL2 limit you? If anything it gives you more choice. With HSPL1 you only get 1.42.hspl and while you can flash any rom with that hspl version, with HSPL2 you can choose between either 1.42.hspl, 1.66.hspl or 2.08.hspl and still flash any rom you want - so you aren't limited to only 1.66 or 1.72 based roms.
The advantages of HSPL2 is that supposedly by matching the hspl version to the rom you get a more stable combo according to Cotulla. Another benefit of HSPL2 is that in order to revert to the original spl version you just choose this from the tool. No need to flash a stock rom via sd card etc.

I got my HTC HD2 yesterday and i now know what love feels like.
My question is what is the latest radio's and roms for o2?
My handset is currently running rom 1.43.206.4 and radio version 2.04.50.22_2
Any advise will be greatly appriciated.
there are no updates for o2 yet.
I can highly recommend hspl2 your phone and install the wwe 1.66 rom.
(read the stickies in the rom development section)
there was supposed to be a new rom coming at the end march but nothing happened. i was told by a customer services guy that there were problems with the rom and it had been delayed.
unfortunately the version you currently have is the latest, for o2 UK any way.
why dont you flash another ROM theyr miles better, plus the o2 stock rom is floating about in the rom dev area so you can reflash if incase you return your phone!
Thanks for the tips guys. I will hspl2 it soon, ive got enough experiance from doing my xperia every other day lol. Which radio version is the best to use?
I've not really noticed much difference across the radios, im on 2.07.50 at the mo, in west yorks, and ive used the 2.08 one too. The only one i noticed a difference with was 2.09 but i use a 576 rom which it doesnt work with, so i only used it for a day.
Thanks. Last question, what is the diffrence between 576 roms etc? This is what has left me scatching my head.
I'd recommend radio 2.09 which I'm on, it's the best so far I've found and I've used all of them on my O2 HD2. I'm based in the Buckinghamshire area and it does me well round here.

the leo we all have (not tmous) have 576 meg of ram, but for whatever reason htc decided to hide 128 meg.
the leaked tmous roms a few months ago unlocked that ram, so now, if you flash a rom based on the 2.10 roms and a matching radio you will get 576 meg ram.
to be honest the ram rarely gets fully utilized anyway, don't base your choice of rom on it. (and you can't get it on official roms like the 1.66)
This link: http://www.4shared.com/dir/22189940/b8552fa0/Shipped_Leo_ROMs.html shows the latest Shipped ROM being Leo 2.10.
That's strange, the XDA WIKI doesn't show such shipped rom with such version!
So I am totally confused here.
Currently I have this ROM installed : Worldwide 1.66.405.2
(RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.66.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe)
But I am wondering if there is a MORE RECENT SHIPPED ROM than that?
And what are the enhancments. Any new programs or stuff in it?
Seems ROM 1.66.405.2 which I have is quite old, didn't HTC release anything newer and improved / better performing after that ?
Would appreciate you guys replies.

ROMs for TMob USA devices come with a 2.xx version - this base is frequently used by chefs for cooking custom ROMs.
European and ROW HD2´s (as of today) are still at 1.6x/1.7x (depending on the area where the device is bought).
As you are not really more specific about some key details, this is the best answer I can give.

Hey, thanks alot for the reply, I appreciate it.
My current ROM as I wrote is WWE 1.66.405.2. No language specific.
I am just wondering if using the 1.7 or 2.10 have improvments in terms of speed, bug fixes or functionality over the WWE 1.66.405.2 which I currently have. Or maybe they would actually make my device more 'T-Mobilish' giving a bunch of non usefull stuff and overhead.

Hey mate I think it goes like this, TMOUS and EU ROM's only differ in whats for your device, so you are expressing you use 1.66 meaning you have a European base on you phone so the highest in the base 1.xx is what your searching for. As for whether the latest is the best that's another question I cant answer.

If you don't have a TMOUS device, so you better not install a TMOUS ROM, due to radio and SPL differences.
i think 1.72 based (official) ROMs could have some improvements over 1.66, but mainly they are the same... only 1.72 are released a bit later for branded devices (1.72 ROMs carry the 1.66 SPL).

Thanks. I saw some snapshots of HD2 Running newer ROMs (I think above 2.0) and they had another home tab called 'Documents' I would call this is a good improvement over the 1.66 I have which doesn't have Documents tab. So I guess that the 2.0 (Tmobile ??) Roms are more improved. Pitty Euro versions don't have that. But since you warned against putting t-mobile US rom on a european device I will just wait.

some custom roms, that run very well on non TMOUS devices (all over the world) do have the document tab incorporated (see my signature )
all the roms and radios, regular and tmous, cooked or ship, will work just fine on the normal hd2. its only tmous users that can't flash our roms, we can flash theirs.
the 1.7 rom seems to be just 1.66 with the updates already applied.(though i'm no expert on that)

Wow it's pretty cool, why is the Telstra version always more compatible and in the HD case it was reported to be much more stable, is it because it is released 6+ months after US?

ermm, , , us version came out way after telstra, telstra is identical to euro/asia hd2, All roms will work on any spl on telstra and euro.
you are on 1.42.hspl because hspl2 doesnt work on telstra, nothing to do with stability or compatibility. if anything its less compatible than the euro/asia, cos teh euro can take all spl and all roms, including tmous, everything.

Yes I noticed after that it meant the Euro was still more compatible, which indeed was the first release? Then to AUS and then to US. Yes sorry I was thinking of the HD which was much delayed.
Sorry really to be a pain here, but if someone does not mind, can they explain to me ROM, Radio and HSPL? I think i know that ROM is the software running on your phone. but it that version number increased everytime someone make a custom ROM out from an official one?
Radio as far as i know is for wifi, radio, etc. is this correct ? And final we have HSPL, now what do need that for, and for what use it is?
I am ofcourse asking these questions because i started to look at all the nice ROM's out there and not sure if i should stick to what im doing and keep going for the higher numbers. Would be very happy if someone could quickly explain them all properly and then maybe guide me to other links where i can read more...
Thank you in advance...
SPL - Secondary Program Loader - Think of it as the BIOS of your phone. It starts the operating system loading, and when you flash it verifies cid and region locks.
HSPL - Hard Secondary Program Loader - This is the creation of Bepe and Cotulla and Co. and is a hacked version of the official SPL that bypasses the checks when you flash a rom. It requires SPL 1.42.0000 on your phone to use.
This is the only version that works for telstra phones.
HSPL2 - is an upgrade to HSPL that allows witching between most of the available SPL's, and also their HSPL equivalents. (So if you want to install cooked roms, you might choose 2.08.HSPL, whilst if you want to go back to official, you would choose 1.42.0000 in the HSPL2 dropdown)
HSPL1024 - Is HSPL specific to the tmous hd2.
hardware ROM - The Read Only Memory of the phone. Think of it as the hard disk in your device. This is your storage memory.
'the' rom - When we talk about flashing roms, we mean the file that installs the whole operating system on your phone. This file is 'flashed' to the rom storage space, where it installs itself. After it finishes configuring itself, whatever is left is your available storage memory. (usually around 180 meg on a standard hd2)
Official ROMS have version numbers such as 1.66 , 1.72. 2.10.
Version numbers of cooked roms are meaningless. They only apply to that chefs roms. He/She applies versions as they see fit, however you can get a fair bit of info from the ro mthread title.
Example, they will usually tell you the base of the rom, i.e what stock rom was used as a base, 1.66, or 2.10 for example, and also the windows build version, (the 5 digit 21xxx number, i dont know whats what with those, but the higher ones are winmo 6.5.x) and more as you get used to reading them.
radio hardware - The different models have different actual hardware that connects to the mobile network. That is why you cant get 3g on at&t with a T Mo USA hd2. No matter what software radio you flash, the hardware is wrong.
radio rom - The radio software sits between windows mobile and the hardware. It controls the hardware based on what you want to do. There are all kinds of reports of better/worse battery life, connection strength, sound quality results when flashing digfferent radios.
flashing a radio does NOT require a hard reset, so wont affect your install.
Some roms (example the 576 meg enabled roms) require specific radios, read the rom posts for info.
The big danger with radio flashing is only applicable to tmous users, , if they flash a radio with ..51.. in the version number, their phone dies.
A useful read. I hope you got a thank you...
heh, well i got one now, cheers,
Dear Samsamuel !
Tx a lot ! Although I study this forum now since I am a HD2 owner (who never flashed a cooked ROM) I start to understand these cryptic topic now by Your explanations, making me more brave to try it once. Tx
The only thing I still can´t figure out is: WTF are the REAL differences of the stock-ROMS eg. what EXACTLY is changed between ROM 1.43 WWE, 1.48 WWE, 1.66 WWE, 1.72 (no WWE methinks).
I got so far to understand that some ROM-upgrades are just earlier ROMs with all the following patches included, but some are a major switch from WM 6.5 to 6.5.x and Sense 2.5.19xxxx to 2xxxx, giving new features like rotation in all Sense-Screens.
Plz, get me right, I spend all bad-weather-weekends hours and hours reading in the ROM-cooker-section, read XDA on my HD at airports and train stations but the shere mass of info provided - a little bit here, an info there - prevents me to get the WHOLE picture. There is a thread about which ROMs are officially out till now but with NO Info about the differences between them and which is a major UPGRADE (WM 6.5 to 6.5.x, Sense 1xxx to 2xxxx) and which is simply a better working "older" ROM.
I got my HD 2 now by the help of the geniousses here (You, Cookie, netripper, Moonah, netdrg, BsB, TX, metaldetector-lady and, and, and -and SKTools ) to work perfectly, smooth and without any fault but still would like some features like full rotational capab of Sense, which is provided by later ROMS. BUT WHICH ROM IS THIS ?
Maybe someone could add some infos ´bout that as a sticky thread ?? to decide wether to flash or not to flash when a new official ROM is issued by HTC, cause every ROM upgrade causes a hell of a work to make the HD2 work as smooth and flawless as before (I have now about 50 apps installed and configured to my needs).
Tx for Your understanding
Hi.
I'm really sorry to ask, but i need some info on flashing for the first time.
I've read the tutorials, but i can't get my head around them. I've even watched some youtube videos, which have helped abit in terms of visually showing me what i am meant to be doing.
However, i am still not sure what ROMs i should be using. I know first of all i must HardSPL my HD2 which is ok i understand that bit; this then will allow me to flash my hd2 with custom ROMs & Radios, plus prevent this n00b from bricking the phone.
But this is where the problem lies, i havent once upgraded/flashed or whatever since i got the phone back in November, and i am still running the stock rom 1.43.110.2 (70315) WWE from T-Mobile UK - Radio 2.04.50.22_2 - Protocol 15.26.50.07U
I want to be able to get the increased 512MB of ram, so if i can get a ROM that already has that init, that would be great, also do some ROMs come with Radios configured inside, instead of me having to flash a ROM first then a Radio ?
Lastly should i flash with HSPL or HSPL2 ?? :S
Oh and if i were to flash i would go with one of the three from below (ps which would be best suited to me or be ummm compatible with my current stock rom, i know its trial and error, but which would some of you recommend)
ROM ░ 25.05.10 ░ © ★ Miri & DINIK ★ ™ ░ v.17 ░ WWE ░ 2.13.531 ░ 23569
6.5.5|ROM|WWE| Energy Series 23569/21905 |May 28| (something about t-mobile usa compatiblity in thread :s )
oh and Dutty's Leo Sense 2.5 Holy Grail V.1|WWE||Manila_Core_2_5_20121412_0|
thank you for any (no matter how small) and all help, i sincerely appreciate it.

most cooks recommend flashing the radio first then rom i use the cleanex rom its not 512mb enabled but its v good and stable also leaves you with around 260+mb after flashing so you may not need the extra wee bit of space.if you are in the uk you want a rom with wwe that should work with no issues hope this helps u a little bit
heyy greg1fraser thanks for the reply. some quick questions.
I wanted to know what should i use to flash my HD2 HSPL or HSPL_2 ?
Then do i just use any Radio to flash my HD2, afterwhich i go about flashing the actual ROM itself.
I want to flash to either Radio 2.07, 2.08 , 2.09 or 2.10 and then can i just flash my current 1.43.110 ROM to the new Miri & DINIK - BASE ROM 2.13.531.1 ???
thanks again for any replies.
if you read the rom thread you are going to flash it will recommend the best radio for it i advise listening to them as it makes a big difference i flashed my phone several months ago just using hspl but i believe hspl2 is a newer better way so i would be inclined to say hspl2,please double check b4 as i dont want you harming your device goto the rom thread and stickies they should help you decide what hspl to use,
once you starting flashing rom v addictive i said ill do it once several hundred times later still doing it

Salaam, I would recommend you start with HSPL 166. as for radio and rom go window shopping you'll be spoilt for choice. any way I'm on Tmo uk aswell and I can say that most radio's work well ie signal etc, oh and yes as Greg said HSPL2 is a better way as it allows you to roll back to stock sspl if you need to send the phone back to Tmo for repaires
ps the 512 ram is just a trick as you can make it show up but you cant use it as its reserved for the system, same case as the processor it does not run at its full 1ghz speed but a lot lower.

that's wrong, all parts of that statement are wrong.
ROM's wise, miri & Dinik and NRG both are enabled for 576mb RAM, just use a radio they recommend in the thread, and the bit bout the us hd2 is that there roms will work on the us hd2 as-well so dont worry about that bit, ok so NRG ROM's are excellent but they have all the extra apps installed, for tweaking rotation, etc, the miri & Dinik ROM is basically a Miri ROM they are fast and close to stock ROM but cleaner and faster, and dinik is in there because he has added all his mods in the rom, if you took the time to look in the rom threads you would see, the thing is no one can recommend a ROM to you as its each to there own, I like most on here have used loads of several ROMs and just chose the one that suits you the most
Hi, I'm running Radio 2.06.51.27 with the stock WWE 1.66 ROM in the UK.
Would I be OK flashing a .50 radio, e.g. 2.07.50.27? If so, do you think I'd notice any benefit at all? Or is there some other radio that's better? (I live near London, and use an unbranded Vodafone HD2.)
Many thanks,
David
Hey
Yes you can flash a .50 radio, id recommend testing a few of the later radios 2.10, 2.11 & 2.12 (although 2.07 may work best for you), the most noticeable benefits are better battery life, faster gps lock & clearer call quality. the only thing is you will need to try for yourself as radio performance really does vary from person to person (depending on your location & rom).
i prev had the best performance with 2.12.50, however after switching roms i get the best from 2.11.50.26 so its a trail & error thing!
Thanks
Thanks for the advice. I've just flashed 2.07.50.27 and will test it out. If there's no improvement I'll try one of the radios you recommended.
Much appreciated,
David

Radio ROM
Living in Germany I use a non branded HD2 with custom ROM. Upgrading to a 2.12.50.XX radio resulted in battery drain issues every time I tried (tried 3times with different ROMS). Presently I`m using 2.10.50.28_2 which gives great data and call performance. Using 2.06 for a long time I always had issues with Radio dropping the data connection. Flashing the 2.10.50.28_2 ROM fixed the issue.
hi, i am also running Radio 2.06.51.27 with the stock WWE 1.66 ROM, just want to know whether flashing a radio is similar to rom flashing. will the radio flashing delete all the cabs installed on my phone? i have never done that nor rom flashing, kind of scared to brick my phone.

Living in Germany I use a non branded HD2 with custom ROM. Upgrading to a 2.12.50.XX radio resulted in battery drain issues every time I tried (tried 3times with different ROMS). Presently I`m using 2.10.50.28_2 which gives great data and call performance. Using 2.06 for a long time I always had issues with Radio dropping the data connection. Flashing the 2.10.50.28_2 ROM fixed the issue.

Do not fear
Nothing to fear. Just make sure HSPL 2 is installed on your storage card, then watch the following video. You won't lose your cabs, only the radio is updated, not the whole ROM. I just did it, and was anxious like you, but it updated fine. I'll wait to see the results.

hi, i am also running Radio 2.06.51.27 with the stock WWE 1.66 ROM, just want to know whether flashing a radio is similar to rom flashing. will the radio flashing delete all the cabs installed on my phone? i have never done that nor rom flashing, kind of scared to brick my phone.
