but it`s all gone over my head.
can someone please tell me simple steps of what to do.
i want / no sorry need to upgrade my svp m2000 orange upto
a 1.4 rom.
i originally had a 1.4 rom on my blueangel.
but i had a problem with playing video files,
so i took it to someone who knows a bit about these,
he said to downgrade the rom to a 1.3 which he did
but now i dont have my camera or video working even tho it did before he downgraded it.
i have tried to install a 1.4 rom but i keep getting country code error
i have been trying to read about this..but to be honest not sure i know how or what i need to resolve this problem.
there that is my problem..so does anyone know the solution.
1. what software do i need apart from a 1.4 rom
2. which is the best rom to install
3.do i need to do anything else to my blueangle before trying to install the rom...
i hope someone can give me a bit of a clue in easy laymans terms.

Just do as it's written on this page
READ
First Method (Quick/Easy) (TYPE II)
Download update to desktop
Unrar or unzip all files in exe or rar into a new folder (Yes you can Unzip the .exe file)
Open the folder with the extracted files
Download this file: MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP
Extract MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from this file and place it with the other upgrade files.
Run this new exe file instead of BaUpgradeUt.exe to update your rom
If you get an error the first time, run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe again
And perhaps pick a Rom that comes from your Vendor.

First of all, you have to hard reset your device.
Then, you said that originaly you have the 1.4 ROM version which is the latest and includes radio version 1.12
All you have to do is to up-grade the radio version to 1.13 and do a hard reset again.
You can get the radio 1.13 from the below link.

I hope this will solve your problem.

@khaledelfeki
he is on a 1.3x Rom with no camera support.
He needs to reflash, and then why not 1.40 with all customizations that fits he operator

Need help with Updating Rom

Just got my X1 today and I'm trying to update it before I play around with it. My first problem is I'm trying to run the Hard SPL Utility, but when it asks me to update the image my image # is higher than the version it wants to update it to.
Image Version: 1.05.948.11
to
Image Version: 1.00.X1
Should I let it?

I'd like to add that I updated from R1 to R3 this afternoon also.

Yes, it's supposed to be like that. Try this guide, it helped me:
Tutorial:
http://www.xperiax1.net/forum/how-t...rom-custom-rom-quick-fast-easy-10-15mins.html
Videos just in case text tutorials aren't enough:
http://www.xperiax1.net/forum/how-t...deo-guides-thread-new-home-now-completed.html

Thank you NeoXero. One more question, and I haven't been able to find this using the advanced search either, but can you backup and flash the X1 with the PC. I don't have a MicroSD card, yet...should be arriving sometime this week. Thank you again.

Well, unfortunately I've never tried it on the PC, because my connection with PC and Phone isn't too good. However, I'm pretty sure it's just like installing Hard-SPL, just run the exe file that comes with it (after hard-spling of course). Look around, I'm sure there's some stickied threads that explain it in more depth.
Also, I don't know how to back up anything. I've never done it because I saw no need to.

Sorry for all of these questions. Where do I find my stock rom to extract the RUU_signed.nbh to the baserom folder?
I'm just trying to take all the precautions possible.

Ok, I think I've gotten one step closer. Forgive me everybody if my lack of skills frustrates anybody.
I've downloaded the R3 Rom from the library.
Extracted it and renamed it to RUU_signed.nbh.
Placed that in my baserom.
I take it that's what I had to do because everything seems to be working so far.

Well, thanks to NeoXero I managed to get my custom flash done. I can't believe all the people on this forum and what lack of support from the members it has.

I ram Hard spl and then wat should i do and how should i install the coustom rom after it

Easy
I had the exact same problem when i first started to flash htc opal... didn't know how to do it, and didn't know what rom to use... maybe someone should create a complete, step by step guide (flashing opal for dummies) and post it as sticky...
ok, here it goes...
Flashing:
0.- if you'll be using a cooked rom (a modified Rom), you'll need to do a hardSPL. check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446446
1.- Make sure that you have activesync if you are using windows xp or windows device manager if you are using windows vista and the latest version of .net framework installed on your pc.
2.- unzip the new rom files on a folder somewhere accesible (desktop for example)
3.- connect the device as an activesync conection, make sure the battery is charged 50% or more
4.- just run the RUU installer (Rom Update Utility), sometimes named CustomRUU.
5.- Follow the onscreen instructions.
YOU ARE DONE.
that's it... no complications, no special drivers, no weird commands or files to copy and paste. so simple. Just one thing: make sure you don't disconect usb during rom update.
so, resumed: Download Rom, Connect activesync, run RUU, done.
About what's the best 6.5 rom: PhamQuang. check for the latest on the rom development section. but different users will recommend different roms, so i'll recommend to try several before sticking to a particular one.

Ran Hard spl and then wat should i do to install the custom Rom

Unbranding HD Mini to latest HTC ROM

Please not that this is my first guide on here and I'll make it as easy to understand as much as possible.
This has been tested on a Vodaphone branded HD Mini. Please reply to this post if this has worked on a different branded phone.
This is to help people to Unbrand their HD Mini's.
Have you managed to flash it to the latest ROM? If not you need to do the following:
•Download the SSPL_RUU.exe and put it into an empty folder (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694409)
•Add the RUU_signed.nbh that you want to flash to your device into the same folder (http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Pho...adio_Signed_32.2803.05.06_0.63.05.36_Ship.exe) Assuming you want Western Europe ROM. You can use a different ROM if you want
•Connect your HD Mini to your PC. Making sure you use ActiveSync
•Run SSPL_RUU.exe and following the onscreen propmts.
Once done your phone will reboot. Next is to flash a Radio ROM.
•Move your ROM from the folder which contains the SSPL_RUU.exe
•Using the ROM that you just used Extract it to a location of your choice by using winRAR. Look for
Radio_32.2806.05.06_0.63.05.40 and rename it to PHOTIMG.nbh
•Place PHOTIMG.nbh into the same folder as SSPL_RUU.exe and flash once again
•Once done you will have a unbranded HD Mini as if you bought it like that. This worked on my Vodaphone
branded HD Mini and worked a charm.
I'd like to thank DarkForcesTeam for the SSPL_RUU.exe and the rest of the developers that have made
this possible. Without them we would be stuck with these branded phones.

Could the Admins place this as a sticky please. Many Thanks

The phone hard-resets after radio flash ? I want to flash only the radio.

Thanks for your guide, wardy. Great explanation.
But it doesn't work with my HD mini.
It stays at 0% for quite a long time. Afterwards, there's an error saying something about a wrong ID.
I'm afraid I'll have to wait for a HD mini hardspl

As long as you are using the SSPL_RUU.exe to flash only the radio & renaming then you can flash it. Yes after the flash the phone does hard-reset.

Which part does it stay on? Please list the error exactly as it appears so that I can help you further.
If its ''Error 294, Invalid Vendor ID'' then download PHO03693.exe over to your device and install it then try to flash the radio again.

Thanks, I installed PHO03693.exe now. What happened afterwards:
-The error I get when I try to install any ROM via “DFT_SSPL_MINI” is “[202] Connection error”.
-If I enter boot mode via my endkey app and install via “DFT_SSPL_MINI” after that, it ends with “Error [262]: Update error”. When I click “view document”, it says: “dummy file”.
-If I try to install official HTC ROM “RUU_Photon_HTC_Europe_1.36.401.1_Radio_Signed_32.2803.05.06_0.63.05.36_Ship”, I get “Error [294] invalid vender ID”

Not sure about that error code. Have you tried doing a hard-reset first then trying to flash the ROM. If your using Windows Vista or Windows 7 then try running SSPL_RUU.exe as Administrator. Hope this helps

I tried both Windows 7 and XP as administrator.
When I'm doing hard-reset, I have to install PHO03693.exe afterwards again. So I did.

It has confused me now mate :$ You'll be better waiting for the HSPL instead. Hopefully it won't be too long now for it.

I have a cracked hd mini with vodafone branding..........i wanted to install the latest official rom......but i'm unable to do so........also i'm new to all this stuff can anybody please help me with this.........thanks

Hi, I just extracted the ROM "RUU_Photon_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.36.707.3_Radio_Signed_32.2803.05.06_0.63.05.36_Ship.exe" with WINRAR, but I don't seem to find the Radio file inside, I only see the "RUU_signed.nbh" file which I intend to update, am I looking at the right place?
Thanks

Found the file now, download the latest HTC update http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=314&cat=0&dl_id=1024 & you can extract the file from there.
Can anyone confirm if flashing the Radio rom is safe? - the DarkForcesTeam original link warns against it! > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694409
Im using an O2 UK HD MINI but have upgraded the ROM to the latest just the radio has remained at 0.63.05.18

I flashed with east europen ROM and now (and before flashing) I don't have GSM signal on phone, strange is that signal show up sometimes 1/5 and disapear again after few seconds but nothing else.
I have one phone with original Spanish language and have same problem with signal. dunno why that happen.

can anyone send me the steps in german? i dont really understand it xD
sorry but my english ist not perfect

Managed to carry out the Radio ROM update with an O2 branded phone.
However the Radio rom listed is still the old one (0.63.05.18)
The update process appeared to take but the radio ROM has remained the same. So take from that what you will?!

help
Please help me guys! I think i've done exactly like u said but when i want to flash the RADIO (PHOTIMG.nbh) after i've flashed the RUU i get this message: the update utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get newer Update Utility
I downloaded the Radio from HTC site, it was 2 files dont know why? 1 small for like 700kb and the other 12mb....

[Q] How do I flash ROM

OK, I'm new to all this, and very confused.
I am trying to flash to a new ROM, "Energy.RHODIUM.28244.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.DinikGlass.Feb.27.7z"
What specific steps, one by one, do I have to do to flash my phone with this new ROM? It looks like, to start with, I have to rename this file I downloaded, right? No thread has said to do that.
I have AT&T HTC Tilt II, Windows Mobile 6.5 (5.2.21887[Build 21887.5.0.86])
Manilla version 2.5.20133329.2
ROM version 2.10.502.4(93577) WWE
Radio version 4.49.25.95
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
PS, I've gone to threads that "Explain" how to flash, but they leave me with more questions than answers.

The file you downloaded is a 7-zip package. You need 7-zip to uncompress.
Read [Resources] Flashing your First GSM Rhodium Rom (For Noobs) for very detailed instructions on flashing a ROM.

Thanks for the info.
I'll download the 7-zip program, and uncompress the ROM to a directory.
I've downloaded the "HardSPL" and will run it with my phone synced.
Then I can run the RUU from the folder with the ROM?
Then I should have a phone with the cooked ROM on it and no bugs whatsoever, right?
And I notice you have the same ROM but the sencity version. Does this ROM not use HTC messaging? The main reason I hate the stock ROM is the HTC messaging. I saw on one of his threads he said his ROMs don't use it, a very good selling point.

hey: I'm a energy rom fan too
first of all ,you should find out that if you device is unlock ,which method is that 1，tune off device ,2，press the lower volume button and press the power button to enter the “3 color interface”，if there‘s any “olinex” word on that，it means you device is unlock ，and can be flashed the cooked rom like energy rom.
as to flashing，I recommend you use storagecard for flashing，’cuz this method is the easiest and less risky，the method as followed：
unzip the energy file and copy the "rhodimg.nbh" to your root of tf card，and enter the “3 color interface“ above metioned ：
1，tune off your device，
2，press lower volume button ant power button，
3，wait for few second
4，you device will check out the rhodimg.nbh automatically，
5，if your device checked out the ”rhodimg.nbh“ existed， it will ask you to press the power button,then press it,
6，wait till process completes successfully ，
7， reboot you device
