I'm a noob when it comes to flashing Roms. I've never flashed a custom ROM before, only AT&T's WM6.0 upgrade when that first came out.
I have an 8525 and want to flash ROMeOS v4.21 onto it. I know I need Hard SPL which I downloaded (Hard-SPL-V7.zip). I downloaded this file http://rapidshare.com/files/136228827/_ROMEOS_421_ROM.ZIP, but now I'm not 100% sure what to do here. Do I need to download anything else? Did I even download the right thing? I downloaded it from here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=411692
Could somebody hold my hand and help me out a bit? What exactly is the next step. How do I flash this ROM onto my 8525 now w/o bricking my phone?
I appreciate all the help, and plan on paypaling the creator of this rom, and hopefully somebody who helps me out w/ flashing the rom as well.
It's always good to start at the beginning, especially when it comes to flashing ROMS. Start HERE; this is a page I created for newcomers that has most everything you need to know about your phone. Especially important for ROM flashing would be MrVanx Upgrade Guide.
Best wishes,
hi, i cant find an answer so im posting my problem here,
i bought an htc p4350 WING US through ebay, it had an UNICEL splash screen but the ROM wasnt branded with unicel stuff, it was clean, i think it came with htc original rom wm 6.1 or 6.0, i wanted to try those custom roms so i flashed my phone with the wingster instructions, i didnt like them so i wanted to flash back the original htc p4350 WING us but i couldnt because it always give me the wrong vendor id error even though im hardspl, i saw a post wich explains how to downgrade to tmobiles rom by putting some spl, but i havent tried it yet cause i want the original HTCs rom not the tmobiles one, what can i do? :'(

Alrighty, put my TribU2U v3 ROM into the HardSPL folder and take out the one that is there. Then run the Rom Update Utility. If that doesn't work, reinstall the three cab files again (that were in the HardSPL folder) and then run the canonyang rom and then run my ROM, I think you'll like my ROM..

thank you for your help man, i really appreciate it, i really do, but the thing is that i dont want custom roms anymore, i took a look to your tribU2U v3 and it looks great, but all i want is to downgrade my HTC P4350 WING US back to its original HTC windows mobile 6.0/6.1 rom without any changes, if you could help me to get rid of the WRONG VENDOR ID and put original HTC rom back i would appreciate it A LOT...
i dont want wm6.5, m2d, touchflo, plugins, programs nor nothing of those stuff, they make the phone buggy and very slow... and dont like'em
i just want the original cuz it comes clean, no visual pimping, no programs added or removed, ultra stable, and because of that the phone works great without errors and very fast... just as i like it
No problem. Thank you for at least trying my Rom.
All you have to do now is insert the original tmoble rom into the folder and take out mine and then run the rom update utility again. Look in my tribu2u thread and I should have the original rom somewhere for you. Just go the the last page and look backward.. Should be 10 to 20 pages backward.. I'd find it for you, buti'm on my phones browser..

Actually, wait one moment; I am going to upload the ROM instead of the setup executable. I'll post back here when I have it uploaded.
why? whats the matter? do i have to use another RUU? i could extract the rom from the executable with 7zip if thats the problem

Oh alrighty, lol. Not many users have an intermediate to advanced skill level as you. So I usually try to make everything as easy as possible. But yeah, that is what I was going to do for you - take the nbh file from the exe and upload it.
hahah thanks, yeah i have some good skills, but as im new in flashing WM roms i want to be careful cause i dont want to brick the phone, i used to flash motorola v600 to v3 flex in my time, psp's and those things, i just only need to now if i need toput the rom in the hardspl folder and install again the 3 apps or could i do it with the exe you just gave me?
man thats the tmobile rom not the HTC one :'(
can anyone help me pleaseeeeeeee :'(
Hey, Im new to this so im very sorry if ive posted in the wrong place.
just wondering if any one has any news on the new hd2 rom which is for the tmobile range. i would like to know if this rom will be coming to the non tmobile hd2's.
Thanks For All Your Help
You mean the US T-Mobile ROM? It's already available on the normal HD2 and has been for months. It's usually best to either use the search function or just read posts (you're going to get flamed for asking btw).
Just in case you haven't searched it, or couldn't find it.
This is a post from xmoo, with the new TMO-US rom.

Regards,
Flash an HardSPL and DON'T FLASH THE TMOUS ROM FROM SDCARD: it will overwrite your SPL with the new SPL2 and you won't be able to reflash the HSPL.
Flash from PC, it'll work flawlessly.
He PM'd me after my post and he knows
Thanks
Thanks For All The Help People!
Much Appreciated, Hope You All Enjoy Your HD2s As Much As Me!!
when you buy a new t-mobile HD2, make sure to flash your rom in order to get the best out of your HD2
here are the instructions to safely flash new rom (use any rom from the link provided. 2.10 is best):

Ok I've installed several different roms since getting my phone yesterday, but I haven't really found one that would stick with me like the original T-mobile rom does. Call me crazy, but I kind of like the rom that came with the phone. I was wondering if I could revert to that rom and how it is done? Also if I did this would I be able to install hardspl in the future to put cooked roms on the phone if I found one that I ended up liking? Sorry if this has been asked before I did a search and didn't really find my answer.
here ya go....

I flash the 2.10.1 ROM whenever I want to go back to the stock stuff and the Hard SPL is still in place with no need to reinstall it.
Thanks I seen that thread earlier lol I just needed some confirmation that that's what I needed to do thanks man I appreciate it. Going to install the version you said and see what happens do I flash it the same way as a cooked rom?
Never mind I figured it out thanks for the help I love this website been a member for a long time, but hadn't had a htc phone since my tilt thanks
NP man!!
My first HTC phone was a Tilt ... then went to a G1 and now HD2

Hello everyone,
I am in need of any 1.2 spl based rom. I have spent 7 hours searching for a 1.2spl rom to reflash my athena.
After a downgrading process from spl 3.5 to 1.2, i couldnt find any 1.2spl roms and i am stuck at the boot screen.
I have read all the instructions on this forum and the process is very clear to me, however, the files are just not available.
I looked through the forum, i looked through google, i looked through chinese and arabian forums, i looked though rapidshare, 4share, heck even the chinese links are dead! I looked though every link i could find on the internet but i can only find a couple 3.5 spl roms. So as a complete last and final resort, i have decided to use this old account of mine and ask a professional for the files.
If any kind user out there could please take a few minutes of their time an re-upload a copy of any 1.2 spl rom then it would save me and any other users who have this problem in future.
Thank you kindly.
