Today, I upgrade my HK XDA2s from eng to chinese, the chinese rom which was download from ftp , named "XDA_IIs_Chinese_CHT_1.31.00_ ExtRom_1.31.900_Radio_1.08.00.rar" (Thanks the giver)
During the installation, I have successfully to edit the 3 rom header file to avoid the country ID problem.
All thing go well, and the PC screen saying "Congradulation" at last.
However, after I soft reset my XDA 2s, the device hang on the start up screen, can't reboot further more.
Can anyone tell me how to solve it OR any steps I miss ?
Thanks
Did you do a Hard reset (power and reset) after the install like it told you to do on the screen?

Thanks MDAIIIuser, you already help me a lot.
Hope other member who 've encounter the same problem can sharing with us.
Furthermore, MDAIIIuser, while using the rom mention above
"XDA_IIs_Chinese_CHT_1.31.00_ ExtRom_1.31.900_Radio_1.08.00.rar"
which is download from ftp server.
After upgrade, the start up screen is "Qtek" with KPN wording. It is very strange that why the chinese rom got "Qtek" wording.
It is there have something wrong on that files ?
You did what we all would have done, sorry that it was a waste of time.
This is another case of
FUNNY HA HA ... NOT
Check the thread on the t-mobile new rom found (cant post link am on mda). Here you will see that i found a new rom on ftp, posted it to wiki, downloded it and then cooked it to find out that it was a qtec rom.
What a waste of time that was.
We have one very sad person that thinks its funny to delete Ftp files, Ftp dirs and now post files that he/she knows would intrest some of us based on the threads that have been posted.
I for one will take more care when posting to wiki, pity as it takes the fun away.
after i finished update, i discover this topic....
I also hit this problem right now.
Can anyone tell me what can i do?
Dont think amy of our CHT are good, might try to download then and see if they work.
The link is in wiki, see my signature, you need the page with ship.exe in it.

re-flushing rom again , it's happen to me before,if you see usb 2.07 that need to re-flush again
Thanks for you two reply.
Yes I had thought about to it that way. But my problem is more serious the XDA stop at start screan the computer even can't detected it. I can't even do synch how can I flush it back? Is there any other way like "PC safe mode"? Anybody got a idea?
OK, move battery out wait 15 min , and put it back ,also reboot your pc,if don't work , try to remove and re-install ActiveSync .
try to doing soft reset first.
Thanx MWang.
Yes I tried what you said, still not working. The xda freezed at the first second it start. I think that is why pc can't detected it. Also soft reset will only turn off the xda and it won't start unless you use hard reset.

I recently got myself an X1, and I have to honestly say, its brill!
I am mainly using the spb shell panel, and like it for the reason that I can use my thick fingers to operate it. Is their any other user interfaces like this one?
Ok, I am a smart enough guy…(sometimes)…but I cannot for the life of me understand roms…and what you guys are going on about in these forums.
What I am looking for is a good selection of panels to choose from, however from what I can get from these forums is that I am better installing something completely different on the phone.. I assume this gets rid of my panels?
Do roms completely overwrite what is currenly on the phone? Ie. Panels, tomtom, etc.
Any tips would be much appreciated, as I am interested in a user interface that I can better customise to suit myself (cant customise spb mobile shell)…..
Thanks..
Roughly said a ROM is a collection of appz put in one file together with the WinMo OS.
What those appz are, and which version of winmo, totally depends on the creator of the custom cooked ROM. In the threads of the custom ROM is always a summary of what is included.
Most chefs delete the panels from their ROMs, except for the standard panels and the panelmanager. So you can install the panels you want to use.
When installing a new ROM (custom cooked or stock) it always deletes the phone memory, not your SD-card! So you need to install appz, change settings to your own need, and ofcourse put contacts, agenda, etc back from back-up.
Nice, thanks.
I think in that case that I will avoid them for now, as I do not have a good enough understanding of how it works. I will how ever make more of an effort to read into the process to understand how it will benefit how I use the phone.
Thanks for the heads up.

Ok, took the plunge, and installed a custom rom....
I installed Touch_IT v4.5 and it is excellent..however
Anyone else experiencing lots of crashes? I am getting lots of crashes for stupid things like trying to open the X panel....
Whats annoyed me most is that I have taken off the back cover so much to remove the battery (to restart) I have cracked the part under the camera :-(
Just out of interest...to convert back to the stock o2 UK rom do I simply download "X1i_GENERIC_UK_CDF1215-1832_R2AA010 - uploaded" from:
NEW ORIGINAL X1 ROMS (all released variants) update 14.3.2009
Then Hard SPL, and install this original rom?
Thanks..

Yes, and yes.
Edit: You don't need to HARD SPL again before you flash it.
I believe that ROM is the generic SE one without any of the O2 branding.
If you need to return it for any reason you will need to reflash it with the O2 ROM (which I believe is available in the same thread as you found the one you pointed out).
You'll also need to change the hard spl back to the original.
Shame about the crack under the camera, did you know you can soft reset by holding down the power button for 3-5 seconds?

How do I change the hard spl back to the original??
I do assume though there is no way to reset the phone when it has completely crashed, without removing the battery. Holding the power button down has no effect.
Its a shame as I love the touch-it 4.5 rom. I almost would live with it being unstable just for some of the features (i.e Camera with autoflash, and the touchflo 3D interface).

Did you hard reset after flash, because I've been using Touch-IT 4.5 since the day after it was released and aren't experiencing big stability issues (hard reset is press the two directly under your screen and press reset button with stylo).

When the batterycover is removed there is a tiny hole next to the battery, you can use your stylo to press the reset button inside the hole (soft reset).
hard reset after flash? no...how do I do that?
As I didnt do it, will I have to reflash it again and then hard reset?
I dont understand "press the 2 under the screen" sorry...
Thanks again..
Hey guys I just too got an X1a and want to install this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485624 But still not really quite sure what to do. So I just download the ROM and ROMUpdateUtility.exe yes? (where can i find the rom update utility for the Xperia?) Then I just install it onto the phone? I know I hav to backup etc. Will this void the warranty though, will I be able to get it to factory settings if I want to change it back?
Thank you.
Need a reply asap..

Hard reset:
1. turn off the phone
2. Hold both right and left buttons (the ones right under the screen, dont know the name)
3. press reset button with stylus, while still holding the others

Ok, so the reset button is the one underneath the battery cover?
and the right and left buttons are the silver rectangular ones that you can assign as anything?
Should I reflash the phone and hard reset it then, or might hard resetting it now work?

Hard reset without reflash should do the trick
ps remind that hard reset will set the OS back like it has never been used before

Don't know Resco first handed, but looking at the screenshots (http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/explorer/indepth.asp) you should be able to enter the registry at the base of the folder tree.

If a soft reset (stylus in the reset hole or just a power cycle) didn't fix it, do a hard reset.
i did hard reset and now the phone boots up uptp the "windows mobile" screen and stays there...what would be next option?

Hi, read this post. It worked for me. Don't forget to backup first so you can restore once your original rom is back on the device.
Problem solved..HTC is great....i did hard reset again and used sprite backup to restore...
the trick is to be very careful when pressing softkeys..they are so small that one can be pressing the red or green buttons..and stylus should be used for very short time (almost as if to touch and retrieve)..anyway all is well that ends well . Thanks gurus and this great site...long live HTC.
I've just recently gotten into different ROM's for my Sprint Touch Diamond. I am currently running Mighty ROM6. Now it flashes fine but after about a day of use I notice the phone starts acting up. Programs disappear, Opera browser stops working and I have to reflash. Is this a common flaw with the Mighty ROM6 or is it something I am doing wrong? I just don't understand how it works fine and after a day or two of use I have to reflash it. Any and all input would be great...

I'm not sure about Mighty ROM6, but issues can occur when you don't clear the device from the previously cooked rom.
2 Choices to clear device:
• flash a stock rom first before flashing
• use mtty (link found in my signature)
Regardless of choice, after flashing the selected cooked rom of choice, don't forget to hard reset your device.
Doing this takes out the variable of it being your devices fault and thus puts back the onus to the rom.
Good Luck!

Well that leaves me with two questions....where can I find a stock rom and how exactly do you hard reset a touch diamond? I've tried the volume down + enter and then the reset button but it doesn't seem to work...any other tricks? What exaclty is MTTY? another rom?

Looking for you re: stock roms
as far as mtty is concern, it's a tool that clears your device. Not too newbie friendly though.
HARD RESET DEVICE:
Right after you soft reset reset (red button) simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format)

Look at the 2nd post, of edited my response there.
By the way, another trick is to flash a radio or a rom via Internal Memory Method found below:
COOKING ROMs & Radios from phone =-
1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the BIG .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH
3. copy the renamed file into the root dir of your "Storage Card" or "Internal Storage" (the one of 4Gb... NOT to the internal phone memory!)
4. soft reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)
5. soon as you see the bootloader stop to press those poor buttons
6. a very simple gray menu will appear asking you what to do, simple press the power button to perform the ROM/Radio upgrade
7. while the upgrade runs be patient and don't press again the power button, reset the device or play with it until it finishes, when finished a message "UPDATE SUCCESS" will appear, now you can safely reset your device
8. who prefer can perform a hard reset after the fresh cook (soon after reset simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format), even if this has no-sense because internal memory is pre-formatted during flash, but... there is always a but... for some unknown "scientific" reason sometimes an hard-reset can save time & headache
p.s. still looking for the pesty stock rom thread....
