Hello dear Xda-Developers forum,
i came here because i want to upgrade my XDA Guide (HTC Iolite) to the new WinMo 6.5 from Iomega staff.
First things first,
i have already read quite a few "how-to's" but still cant solve this issue.
I wanted to dump my rom first before i start to install the new one, so i've dumped 4 .raw parts from my phone but as i wanted to merge them into a rom with ervius-kitchen it just deleted these parts and gave me an error.
Also when i dump my phone via an exe and not by typing it in a cmd window i only get 2 .raw files. Is this an error or is the rest just not needed?
Next i have some quite basic problems:
-What is a .nbh file and where do i get it to cook a rom?
-If possible is there already a Stock O2 German rom i could download? (Google gave me no results)
-I have no idea how to install a new rom
Thanks in advance,
Micha
Solved.
I've been able to install the rom but however am not able to form my dumps into 1 .nbh. Anyway since i don't seem to get an answer to that i see this thread as of no further use and would admit and Admin deleting it.
Merry Christmas

Hi,
sorry for that noob question but I have already downloaded the WM6 upgrade for the 4350.
Before installing it, I would like to know if it is possible to downgrade the WM6 to WM5 if I dont like that new version.
Thank you !
Yes, get your WM5 package ready (i.e. download your official/prefered WM5 ROM).. and you can flash it back later. It is not possible (I think) to backup your ROM to be flashed back later.
Hi Hanmin,
thank you for your answer.
My second noob question is... where can I download the WM5 ROM ?
There is no WM5 download on HTC club so I don't have any source to use if I want to install WM5 again.
Am I missing something ?
Thanks
Hmmm.. this seems tough. As most of the phones were preinstalled with the first version of WM5, chances are, we do have a AKU ROM upgrading package, which is the entire ROM itself. In cases where we do not like WM5, we use that to flash it back. For Herald, it seems that it came with the new version of WM5, as such, probably there isn't any ROM package that youc and download and flash.. unless someone made a dump on it, or there are to be leaks.
UPDATE: There are available at
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Herald_Upgrades
Get your version from there. Get it before they are gone.
Thanks Hanmin,
what a pity that there is no French version :/
Do you know if it is possible for me to dump the memory (and to made it available for the community) ?
Thanks !
Sorry. Can't help you on that. Whooss way over me. I'm not much into the ROM stuff. However, I think if you sniff around more, there are certain threads teaching you how to dump it
hey guys...i found this update on htc web site http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=88&cat=2&dl_id=25

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379034&highlight=original+rom

If there's the ROM you're lookin' for in the thread linked by jeremy, that'll be the original ROM
If not, you should CID unlock your device and flash one of these ROMs (WM 6.0) or you can even try other WM6.1 or 6.5 systems
Hey guys...i tried to install the software i told u about which i downloaded from htc website...but it didnt continue..it always breaks and give me connection error message...
but later i tried 2 install onyx again and it went fine...so am i now stuck with onyx and cooked roms?!!!
Connection error?
Can you flash using SD?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_SD_Card_Flashing
Make sure the original roms fits your phone.
well..i've read the SD flash, but the problem is that the rom file is exe file not nbh, and secondly what's the stylus, sorry to ask for many question but i'm very new to pocket pc's!
Stylus is that 'stick' or 'pen' where you use for the touchscreen.
I thought there was a nbh version, that someone has stripped from the original.
Can anybody tell me how i can get WM 6.5 or 7 on my HTC Touch Diamond?
Where do i find it and how do i install it? I currentlly have WM 6.1
Thanks!!
Someone would tell you to use the search engine, but im also new on this board.
Windows Mobile 7 is not released until now. Windows Mobile 6.5 or 6.5.5 you will get on this board. Its important that you save your Files from the Phone before you flash it. Its also important to have .Net Framework 3.5 on your PC or you will get an error from RomUpdateUitility in Windows. I had this problem yesterday when i was flashing in WinXP and i tried a new installation. Get the installer from the Microsoft Hommepage: microsoft. com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6
IMPORTANT: You have to erase the space between microsoft and .com. You have to do is at ervery link i posted. Because its not allowed to post links for new members like me and so it works only this way.
Now you need HardSPL, a bootloader, from here: forum.xda-developers. com/attachment.php?attachmentid=93362&d=1213719705
I installed this version yesterday, its unsigned but it works.
Here you have a howto to flash HardSPL, Radio and Rom: modmydiamond. info/index.php?option=com_content&task=category§ionid=4&id=13&Itemid=26
Then you can flash your Radio to a new Version, get it from here: rapidshare. com/files/353046193/1.17.25.09-SR.rar.html - this is the newest Version i have found, but if you have Problems with it use 1.09. Users on board say thats the best one (but older): megaupload. com/?d=JRJVNC4U
And now what you really want, to flash a new Rom. Its works the same way like HardSPL and Radio flashing. You will get a lot of roms with WM 6.5.x on this board, but you have to look. The are all a little different. Here some examples:
forum.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=517300
i dont have use this but i try to flash it today
forum.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=635028
is see it now for the first time.
forum.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=648771
Finally you will get all this Roms here by searching the board:
forum.xda-developers. com/forumdisplay.php?f=430&order=desc
If there are questions, reply in this thread and i will answer in time.
Hope i could help you and sorry for my bad english
The Diamond is not have the hardware to support 7. Plain and simple. There are countless of ROMS available on the board... http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=430
But becareful as the roms don't work for both GSM and CDMA. Do some research.
These steps that you have to do:
1.Do hard spl 1.93 by olinex. (do MTTY also if you can)
2.I flash more than 5 wm6.5 ROM, This is the best http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593678.
3.Do hard reset after flashing any ROM. Flashing ROM will DELETE all your data.
Wm 7 has not been released, But if you want wm7 theme, check this out http://www.mobilecustom.fr/forum/index.php/topic,4007.0.html. Good luck:

Go to HTC Diamond section. U can find everything there.
Hey guys,
hope you can help me with a problem. I flashed my X1 about a month ago to install Xkans Rom (WM6.5), but now it is totally slow and I want to reflash to the original firmware with WinMobile 6.1
I just downloaded the files of "Generic Germany R3AA007 Software Update" from the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475482, but I dont know, how to install that file now, because it is a .image file. I just put it on my microSD card, but the phone couldnt find any image on it (volume-down + power button, 3 color screen)
Please help me, I am totally desperate now. If you know any other german Windows Mobile 6.5 Rom for the Xperia X1 which is faster than the one from Xkan, I would appreciate your help as well. I actually like the WinMobile 6.5, but it is so f***ing slow
Thank you so much!
Simply rename the file Kovsimg.nbh and you can flash it using the SD card method.
Thanks, seems to work
ported wm6.5 is so much slower as it contains many many more files than the original wm6.1 ones
never forget that X1 was never meant for an official wm6.5 rom (and will never be), therefore it's technical specs are lower than would be needed, thus slowing it down on ported wm6.5
there are not that many GER roms, but more than the one you named, check rom dev for the others (search GER) and have a go to compare them
enjoy
as your original request was answered I will close this thread, if follow up problems occur, pls don't open new threads in general, post in the respective rom dev threads, thx

Hi
Yes it is possible,you have to DUMP you original ROM at first and save it on you computer, you get 4 files from you ROM.ROM Dumping is already explaind in the (WIKI)you have to convert this 4 files to one NBH file after that you can cook it to you phone again.You have to apologise me, to explain everything again, it is explained in the Wiki,be aware it is not that easy, but doable
