Hi,
I would like to know is it safe to downgrade from android to winmo 6.5, with custom rom eg .Duttytroy, Energy rom ? Isit safe to downgrade without official/ stock rom ?
thanks
update; Flashing back to winmo require Main rom & radio rom, custom does not have the radio rom (which is not advisable) ..

Hey guys, so I'm attempting to flash a custom ROM for the first time on my hd2, let alone any phone. I've read through all of the guidelines, and have already installed HSPL on my phone. I'm planning on installing the newest available energy ROM, however, I notice that it's recommended that TMOUS users flash the radio rom to 2.07.50, though it's not necessary. First off, for those of you who have flashed it to 2.07.50, are there advantages? On my stock phone, the radio rom is showing as 2.10.531.1, which I'm not seeing anywhere else in this forum. If for some reason, I do want to revert my phone back to the essential stock form, including the radio ROM, would I be able to do that? If so, I guess I'd have to find the stock 2.10.531.1 radio rom too right? I'm also assuming that there is the TMOUS stock ROM available on this forum if I want to revert everything back to flash, correct? Sorry for all the questions, but as a first time flasher, I'm trying to be cautious!
Thanks!
2.10.531.1 is you os version (rom) not your radio
You're right, that was referring to the ROM itself, not the radio rom. In any case, do any of you still recommend flashing my radio rom from what it is now (2.08.50.08_2) to 2.07.50? And lastly, where would I find the stock ROM and stock radio ROM on this forum in case I wanted to revert my phone back to stock form? I'm guessing that once I have those stock ROMs, flashing from the energy ROM to the stock ROM would be the same exact process?
Hey all, I think I actually have it figured out now. Let me know if this sounds right to you. To go from a custom ROM to the original stock ROM (2.10.531.1) I would first download the "2.10.1 *no stock SPL" ROM from the stickied http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655653. I am assuming that 2.10.1 is short for 2.10.531.1. After downloading 2.10.1 I would use customRUU.exe to flash back to the stock rom. To change my radio back to the stock 2.08.50.08_2, I would simply do the same by downloading the file, and again use customRUU.exe to go back to radio 2.08.50.08_2. Lastly, to get back to the original SPL, I would run HSPL2 and choose option SPL 2.08.0000 to revert back. After all of this, my phone would be back to bone stock, correct? I am just making sure that I've got it down before tampering with my beauty! Thanks guys.
P.S. - Anybody have an answer to my original post's question about downgrading my current radio to Energy's preferred 2.07.50? Is it worth it?

there is a thread is the beginning of the HD2 forum for radios...
Yeah, I saw the thread for radio roms too, but I am wanting to know specifically if people have any input on whether or not it's really worth it to change my stock radio rom to use with the energy ROM?

No need to change your radio. Keep the one you have. Flashing radios is by far more dangerous than flashing ROMs. Just make sure when you are flashing ROMs that it is compatible with the TMobile USA and you will be fine.
Thread closed. PM me if you need further assistance.

Yes you can change you stock rom to any custom or upgraded version of stock roms by Htc.
to do this.. you need to have HSPL2 installed into your hd2.
read sticky for more information on this topic and Remember Do not Flash rom through SD card if SPL version is latest than 2.08 .

i know what you meant.....is there any possible way that i want to change my stock rom in my firmware.....so that when ever i'll return my 2nd htc hd2 phone, i could just flash it with the new stock rom......
can i rom upgrade to downgrade on htc touch hd
Do you mean will you be able to flash back to original rom from a cooked rom? You certainly can. I flash cooked roms all the time but I always revert back to original 1.56 rom
I was wondering if it was possible to install Android on the stock ROM 3.14 WWE (radio 2.15.50.14). I would like to install android without having to use HSPL because I'd like to keep the phone under warranty
Nahh
Tried doing that. My WM locked up totally. It would start, but NO 3'rd party progs worked. I could not uninstall, nor install.
The only thing that worked was to reset WM.
So i ran the HSPL part, upgraded WM to Dutty, upgraded the Radio, and Android ran smoothly.
I'm not sure if all WM's will lock up, but i only speak for my self.
Btw, my was stock Norwegian.
Good luck
It does work on the latest ROM (3.14). Plenty of people have had it working, me being one of them. It's definitely a good solution for those who don't want to have to upgrade HSPL in order to get a newer radio.
I've been always using Stock roms, and Android has always worked perfectly here.
Currently using 3.14 German Stock Rom + MDJ 1.7 Android room. working flawlessly.
stock orange rom
I am using a stock orange rom. I did HSPL3 and updated the radio to 2.14.50.04.
I went for the FroyoStone_Sense_V3.2 build, and have had no stability issues. I use this as my main phone and never revert back to winmo.
Like most I do suffer from data drops, but get around it by toggling airplane mode.
Hi, two seperate things here, you can run it on a stock rom see my sig, but you must install HSPL3.
Mines working just fine...
Didn't alter the WinMo ROM, radio, or even SPL. Just cut & pasta the Android ROM files to SD Card, and magic!

No, you don't need to install hspl. A radio version >2.08 is enough. Recent stock ROM has 2.15
having HSPL is safer .. I am running the Tmobile stock with hspl ,running Mdeejay Evo and works like a charm .
I don't see how having HSPL could possibly be any safer for running Android from your sd card, as Android doesn't use or touch your SPL at all. You are perfectly safe to run Android on a stock rom, as long as you have a X.XX.50.XX radio everything will be as if you were to run it on a cooked rom

Thank-you for correcting me this change to the builds had totally passed me by
Hello,
As I'm selling my HD2 shortly, yesterday I flashed it back from android to stock wm6.5 rom. My question: after taking out the mini SD-card then flashing to stock rom wm6.5, is there any personal information left on the Phone (except HSPL)?
Thanks in advance,
No.
You are welcome

No it won't. If you flash a stock ROM via USB, SPL version won't be affected. If you flash a stock ROM via the SD card then it will revert to stock SPL.
