I went to WM6 for a while on my G3 and then I went back to WM5 no problem. Personally, I don't know if you should risk it though, seein that you will be sending it back.

Im going to reflash my rom tonight and wanted to know the perfect way to do this.
Im using a MDA on cingular.
Should i start with the Tmobile rom then install the molski rom update?
OR just do the molski rom update?

If you have to ask now how to do it tonight, you don't want to do it. First, why do you want to change it? Is it a reason worth risking your phone over? If so, take a look around, there's plenty of information already here and it's not always a simple process. What do you do if you flash your phone and it doesn't turn back on? What do you do if you're flashing your phone and your computer dies? What do you do after you've flashed your phone to find there's no radio or you can't make or answer phone calls? Do you have a G3 or G4 ROM? Better know, you could easily kill your phone permanently dead if you don't. Take another look around and look at all the messages from people asking how to undead their phone because they had no idea what they were doing, didn't let that stop them and not getting much of a reply. Everything you need to know is already here. Many times. If it seems like too much trouble to go look for it, then find something else to do with your toy.
Ok let me try to ask it like this.. How do you go about flashing your phone? Whats the order that you follow?
Just curious on other peoples methods.
Hey guys.
i just wanner say first im a noob at phones so dont flame me.
Right, i got a brand new t-mobile compact 2 (htc charmer) with t-mobile rom on it. i really wanner upgrade to Windows mobile 6 so badly but i cannot flash my rom cus it aint unlocked.
So i tried doing it myself with the unlocker this website suggests, but that always fails .
What i think happend is this mda has been updated to the latest t-mobile rom. Which is:3.8.2.21 WWE and the unlocker is only for the old versions.
I actually dont know im right at all. but if anyone can get back to me either by pm, email or If you know your stuff please dont hesitate to add me on msn, and talk me though it. trust me its alot easier to do that then wait for thousens of emails.
Anyway any help will be amazing. remeber im a noob so please dont flame me, i just want to be able to experince the mobile 6 that all you guys are.
Email/MSN: [email protected]
Thankyou so much everyone. I hope you can solve this problem.

You don't have to unlock your phone to flash WM6. Considering you've already flashed the latest t-mob rom, just go to TouchFLO ver. 2.1 thread in Charmer Mobile 6, download the rom, read the instructions and flash. It will work.
Good luck.
Okiess gonner try it now. hopefully it will, will get back to you soon.
Ill describe the entire process.
Nope still not working, wont flash.
I run the flasher bat file the screen stays completely still nothing happens and i donno why. is it cus its not cid unlocked. i know you said it dont, but one of the guys said it did.
Get back to me soon

Hi all i`m always changing my roms and radio`s like you do lol i had duttys rom installed and hard spl olinex 1.93 also. my problem is and like a true div i used the wrong program on the diamond cos i have the tytn aswell so put that program on my diamond and now it is bricked lol the program was hard spl for the tytn or something can`t remember exactly what. can`t get into bootloader or reset as nothing at all and wont start up or vibrate etc can`t get active sync to find phone so i would say 100% bricked lol i am sending the diamond tomorrow for repairs to htc.
what i want to know is as it has a cooked rom and olinex installed and i bought it new from someone who was selling their upgrade will they be-able to tell whats on the phone if it is bricked and then refuse to fix it or cos it is bricked they`ll never be-able to see what rom etc is installed on it??? it was originally on the orange network uk so would that affect the repair??
any help would be much appreciated keep up the good work to all xda-developers and forum user`s cheers tony

If you flashed the Tytn SPL to a Diamond, you can forget it, it is a shiny paperweight...
Unless the JTAG points for the device are found it is most definitely a brick.
lol thought as much lol thats what happens when you have more than one phone lol would they know it has a cooked rom installed when they investigate why it bricked? cheers

If they unbrick it, then yes, they will know it has a custom ROM flashed to it. However, they will still fix it and just bill you.
damn lol is there a way of blagging it so if i say i bought the phone with the cooked rom installed already and thought that was the original rom from new?? just play dumb lol is it expensive if they unbrick it?? cheers
just to add that dutty`s rom was great and had nothing to do with me bricking my phone. just incase people interpret me the wrong way and think its a rom problem
morning all my phone is being picked up today and was just wondering if they do fix or reflash my phone will it be back to being locked to the orange uk network again even though i unlocked it??? cheers

HTC will flash the most recent ROM available for your device. If your phone is Orange branded, then that is the ROM they will flash to it.
thanks for that mate but i need to know if it will be locked back to orange uk meaning can i use any sim card or will it be on orange uk only cheers
anyone else with any suggestions please cos i`m getting a bit worried that htc will refuse to repair and if they do how much the cost will be. has anyone from the uk had the same problem and bricked there phone? and how much does it cost for them to repair?? thank you
just an update about my repair got my diamond back today and they replaced the main board cos i bricked the diamond so i have a new imei number and life time call counter is back to zero i never got charged for this repair and now i can even hard reset the phone where before it wouldn`t work so have faith if you have bricked your diamond
Hi,
I have an att tilt (8925). The other day I happend to upgrade the ROM or flash from 6.0 to 6.1 from htc official site there after the phone doesn't get the signal(wireless).
The following is the device information.
ROM Version:3.57.502.2 WWE
ROM Date:07/17/08
Radio Version:1.65.21.18
Protocol Version:25.88.40.05H
Please any kind of help would be really greatly appreciated....
Thanks in advance.
And you used the ATT rom?
Thanks for the reply but I am sorry I am totally new to all this wat do u wat me to do....
yeah looks like you did.
Could you give us more data ?
Where did you find your phone ? Was it unlocked ? Did you do hard-SPL in it ?
What is the OS version, exactly ?
Maybe you must change the Radio, maybe you must flash with another ROM version.
Maybe you only must enable the phone...
Please enter the boot screen and write here all your data numbers (then, switch off the device, you'll boot normally again), and also write all the data you can find in Start-Settings-System-"Device data" (or similar the last screen)
(don't write here the IMEI as it's not needed and could be used for third party people to lock your phone) !!!!!!!!
With all the data we'll know what exactly is your device and what exactly may be happeing to it.
Hi,
I got the phone from ATT with windows mobile 6.1 Professional.

What actually happened and why the difference? Surely if you have an AT&T phone and put an AT&T ROM on it (with no other modifications) as per how AT&T intended, if that causes it to fail, AT&Ts warranty department should be informed and should come to the rescue? If you've already hard reset the phone and tested again (it's important to hard reset after a ROM flash) and have tried reflashing the new ROM again and hard resetting afterwards with the same results, it's time to contact them?

Did you try this process twice (in case of a bad flash)? How do you explain the different Windows Mobile versions you referred to as being on the phone originally? How old is the phone?
Hi,
I tried that not twice but many times....I told you that I originally had win 6.0 then I updated to 6.1 given at htc.com its just out of warranty by a month, its like 13 months old.....

The reason for my question was because in your 3rd post you said the device came with WM 6.1 from AT&T.... My HTC branded TyTN II had a warranty for 15 months from new and even if yours is just out of the warranty period for Tilts, they shouldn't completely ignore you if you can prove the problem was caused by using their ROM upgrade. That said, given no-one else with this phone and ROM has complained about the same issue as you here, either your local celltower has coincidentally failed at the same time as you carried out the flash or some damage has occurred to your device (such as to the aerial sticker perhaps). The simple way to find out would be to test it out in other areas where you know reception to be good, also to revert its ROM/Radio and SPL back to the original Tilt setup. You can find all the required files and instructions here at xda-dev via the wiki about how to do that.
As Flying Kiwi says, you can revert to 6.0...
I'm also intrigated by this change of versions from 6.0 to 6.1 (not WM versions but your posting versions)
Well, le'ts imagine you flashed the correct 6.1 ROM to the correct device (the data you wrote here allow us believe in this, I think, but I'm not an expert in SPL and radio versions). It should work. If not, you may try to download the old SPL and 6.0 ROM and flash them. (You'll find their links somewhere in the Wiki, here). Maybe you need to change the Radio to get the phone working ? Did you use the correct ROM for your S/N device ?
On the other side, you may try to do the entire Hard-SPL process and then flash one of this wonderfuls ROM's you may find here.
Or reverting to the original 6.0 and SPL "from" a cooked ROM ?
I'm thinking about my most terrible enemy, the electricity down, and thought you might download a bad version, or it got corrupted but you could flash it...
Please, don't follow my instructions till one of the masters will read my post and tell if I'm (or not) mistaken.
Hi All,
I thank you frm the bottom of my heart for all your responses, surprisingly when I when to att device support center today they said that my phone is still under warranty and they replaced my phone with a new one....
Thanks,
Srinivas
