Hi, i had a wizard for 2 years and buyed a xda terra now.
I have standard O2 German rom on it
I dontt know how to start with all the stuff.
I have wm6 on it and want a other cool rom.
What i have to do first?
Can you please send me then the link of the threads?
Sorry for my bad english , im german
ok so heres the problem. the xda terra can flash, but it cannot recover because a RUU has not yet been released yet.
The problem here is two fold
First, to flash you would need to install a fresh copy from the RUU, which is impossible.
Second, if you were to try to flash from your current OS, it would brick and you would not be able to recover because there is no RUU.
Sorry
hmm. i flashed it :S
it worked. with the touch it 2.3 rom.
i installed it over the original wm6 from o2.
hope i didnt a big mistake
oh wow, it worked? in my experience, i've always had to flash back to ruu before flashing. That said, you prob won't be able to flash again. Also, if you do try, make sure YOU DO NOT TOUCH THE USB CORD. I've like hit it a little and the entire flashing process goes to hell. Remember, for you, hell=dead forever.

I know there are others experiencing the 28% death wall while trying to flash WM6, but there doent seem to be any specific solutions to this.
I have a Dopod D810 and has already installed 1.30 olipro. Just trying to flash to the official WM6 ANZ Rom. No luck.
Any suggestions guys?
Should just be a very straight forward procedure. Flashing a Dopod with an official Rom.
should be, but it's not... mine is Dopod asia, and stuck at 28% when flashing. Not too sure, but really seemed to me that it was something related to hard-spl. After the 28% error, i reflashed an unofficial rom and tried the official again.
eventually it worked for me.
i guess you don't technically need to manually enter hard-spl first before flashing official ROM.. if anything went wrong i guess you could send it back to them..
safest is to use a modified RUU so it just flashes ROM without IPL + SPL.. i thiiiiiink problem is something to do with SPL
which unofficial rom did u reflash it to? I've been going back and forth with AX3L_OS v3.0.0.2 and the official ANZ dopod rom.
tried about 5 times now. still trying. each time it fails at 28% it's another 10 minutes to flash backto the unofficial rom.
maybe if i try to trce ur steps exactly it might work.
i was flashing to some pdaviet ROM, but i don't think that would make any difference from ax3l's...
have you tried flashing the official ROM with a modified RUU, or you really want the whole package...
If you're just trying to keep everything official i guess you could try to flash the official rom without manually entering bootloader and take your chances. Being that its an official ROM i guess it's safer, or at least covered in warranty..
One question, why don't you try to flash to official WM5 ROM, then to official WM6.. since technically it's supposed to work that way
seriously, i'm not sure why you'd want the official one though.. it's nothing special
Yeah I've tried flashing back to the official WM5 and then WM6, same story.
Tho I havent tried flashing the official WM6 through modified RUU, mainly coz i dont know how to.
Also, In the AX3L version of WM6, there doesnt seem to be a phonepad input method. only keyboard and block recongniser and one other one. Is that coz it's a modified rom, or does WM6 not have the phone pad input. if that's the case i can forget about flashing to WM6 all together.
can't remember if official wm6 has phonepad, but you can just install a cab for it, so it's not a big deal.
look on my site for a link to modified RUU official ROM... instructions are here
i had a lot of problems being stuck at 28%
what eventually i got it to flash to the aus rom was i used SPL 1.20 then it seemed to flash fine.
for some reason my phone doesnt like any other version of SPL besides the one on the latest aus rom either, i flashed to a cooked rom and couldnt flash back until i had put spl 1.20 back in then flashed back to the aus rom.
I have the same problem with 28% stucking
I try to reflash but I still have the same
do you have hard-spl? if so, which version? If you do, flash back a cooked ROM..
if not, you need to try to flash official ROM..
if neither is working, use splxploit. I think all links you need are in this thread already
I have a same problem.
I was upgraded from WM5 to Hong Kong Official WM6 chinese ROM, then I want to change to Official English ROM, I did the Hard-SPL 1.3 and get the SuperCID, but when upgrading the WM6 English officeial ROM, this was stuck at 28%.
Now I was able to flash back to WM5 rom, but I world like to Upgrade to WM6 official ROM, anyone help?
I had this problem when upgrading to the Australian WM6 official HTC Release. The way around it is to run the Trinity Service Provider & CID unlock program from the link below. Dont know why but to use either release, Dopod or HTC WM6 you must run this tool first.

Hope this helps
you don't *have* to CID unlock your device to use these upgrades..
again, sometimes it gets stuck, sometimes it seems to work.. you can just keep trying.. mine magically worked after a while. the most sure method is to use a modified RUU, of which there's a few on the forums and a few threads regarding these issues..

HI, Thank for your reply, how can I do the modified RUU?
Hi all,
I have success to flash the WM6 official ROM.
this is my experience:
To flash the Radio ROM first, I has flash the 1.50.08.11 Radio ROM.
Then to download the Dutty NBH Tool to take off the Radio DOM of WM6 official ROM.
Then to flash the modify ROM.
Now, my phone is running WM6.

Learn something new everyday. Never knew that simply modifying the RUU would itself allow the updates. Just tried it, and yes it works also.

I had the same problem and I resolve it by extract the rom and re-build it ... look at the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327667
Good luck
At the point I am I need the help of experienced Users from the community.
I flashed a original HTC Wings (S730) with WM 6.1 ROM. It runs perfectly until I got a hardware problem (radio) . This is the reason I have to send it back to the official service.
Therefore I tried to go back to an official ROM from the http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WINGS_WM61_Alcaline
At first I flashed the earlier backuped Bootloder via sspl-0.91-wings.exe. This seems to be okay. But as I tried to flash an official ROM from the site mentioned above, during the flashing process I've got the note 'ERROR 294 Invalid vendor ID'. What was wrong? Did I forget any step?
Please, is there anyone who can describe the correct way back to 'warranty' for a newbie?
Thanx a lot.
have you tried all the ROM's? there is one prerelease and two release ROM's.. try both of the release roms, they might be for different production models/locations.
I tried both official released ROM's (signed as 'Ship'), not the prerelease version.
and if you first flash the shiped rom (with hardspl) and when done flash the back-up of the spl
With reference to an earlier statement of bigflavour in the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=383617&page=17
I flashed back the original SPL at first.
Too bad It seems to be that I have a new problem now. Few minutes ago I have tried to reinstall hardSPL on the device via the well known sspl-0.91-wings.exe running on the Wings. But as I started the sspl, the device shows on the display that 'Access denied....is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate'.
Thereupon I thought I had to 'application_unlock' the device. After running the SDA_App...Unlock on my PC the display message shows succesful unlocking process. B U T, the sspl doesn't run as before.
Now, I'm totally confused. What has happened??
It's flavor, and unfortunately, I have no idea how to help you.
Probably tried the European english's spelling hehe.
Also This does seem like an odd problem, have you tried for kicks doing the factory reset to see if it will reset some of the registry and maybe fix your issues? I dont know anything about the spl's since I have no need to upgrade to 6.1, I wouldnt imagine it causing any more damage but again I dont know what all was done. I havnt followed those threads for a long time.
Thanx a lot. Apparently, the hint to make a hard reset hits the mark. Now I flashed back the HardSPL. So I'm back at the starting line . Does anyone knows if the official ROM from the http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index..._WM61_Alcaline is the latest one and can I use it for the warranty return?
Or should I look for an original German HTC ROM?
I was a little bit to fast. I will need a German ROM definitely, because the ROM from the Wiki doesn't include a the german language option.
Is there anyone who can help me with a original HTC S730 ROM for the german market?
Thank you in advance.
Hallo HSN,
if you give me a introduction how I backup my ROM, you can have my one. I own a German HTC S730. But I am confused when I read all threads about flashing etc....
One page introduction how to back up and you can have my one.
But I think that the Repair center here in Germany, doesn't care about the Rom you have installed.
Hello people,
My greetings to all in this forum.
I just got my HTC Diamond (upgrading from htc excalibur) from Rogers Canada. But to my surprise they sent me a French phone instead of english one. I called Rogers and they are asking me to send it back and then they will send me the english phone. I cant wait for that long. I had to flash it anyways. So i will be flashing the phone on the weekend.My question is ..
Do I need the phone to be SIM unlocked to flash it? Coz I dont wanna spend 30 bucks right now.
If I brick it... god forbidden.. is there a chance to recover the phone?
Thanks...
Update: Rogers is out of English Stock.. and will not be replenished till one month
you do NOT need to be SIM unlock to flash your rom, remember you are not changing carriers.
the stock Rogers WWE ROM is on XDA here, just search.
Thanks Blaze.
I appreciate your help.. I am still deciding to flash it or not. I am kinda unsure if It will lead to bricking of my phone. Although I found the English ROM but it seems I still have to HardSPL it before flashing to Rogers WWE.
Not sure If I have to flash Radio too or which HardSPL to use. You know all these things ... I am not sure. ... but I really dont wanna send my phone back......

OK i think i ****ed up bigtime.
I was on HSPL, and at first i flashed a stock rom.
After that i flashed DUtty's rom and it went ok.
It booted up with green screen problem and loads of locks and really really slow. After that i tried to use uspl but i was getting connection problems. After that i thought i should go to 1.15 stock spl and so i flashed that one, in order to use uspl. But the problems still persist, and now i cant revert back to a previous cooked rom.
Any suggestions ?
Use Manually Bootloader
Go back to stock spl, first flash stock rom, use sspl manual turn olinex and flash stock spl and then u can hspl again.
Hope it solves the prob. Just take a look at my Grafik Problem thread!

Well i fixed it and flashed everything ok.
A message to all flashers, DO NOT TRY TO FLASH ON WINDOWS 7. You may brick your device.

Hi,
Why, Windows 7 has the same drivers like Vista???
Can You express more crearly?
i flashed on Win 7 (build 7077)... i had to roll back the HTC USB Sync driver as explained in many threads about flashing the latest HD ROM v 1.56. i think some of our fellow members are not following all the steps to flash with the new ROM/SPL.

A message to all flashers:
Read the instructions thorougly. If you cannot say that you understand 100 % of what the instructions tells you, read them again or do some research.
After following these steps you will almost certainly have a much better experience with custom ROMs.

i tried reverting the drivers but it is simply not working. i am thorough and i do read the details.
I had no problems with the drivers. I just followed the correct procedures mentioned in the wiki and post#6 of Duttys v2.8 rom
Have you tried rebooting pc afterwards and pressing F8 as per the instructions to help load them?
i flash on windows 7 7068 almost 10+ times already with no issue , using custom ruu.

Same here. Use Windows 7 (7068) as my only OS and I've been flashing 20+ roms without any problems.

The instructions for all the different flashing methods are a big mess if you ask me.
There is no red thread, they all just blend together in a big mess and leave out answeres to simple questions that would clearify stuff for newbies.
The more i read the long pages of instructions the more confused i get.

I agree, they can be confusing, but once you have mastered it, you'll wonder what the problem was!
What exactly are you confused with? What steps have you taken? Where are you now in the process?
Don't worry about the phone it will be ok.
The steps are as follow:
1). Flash hardspl
2). Flash a stockrom
3). Flash USPL 2.5
4). With USPL on your phone flash to Dutty
To revert back to previous roms:
1). Flash hardspl
2). Flash your previous rom.
Grtz,
Leo

Im fine, thanx, I have flashed my phone twice without big problems.
But the second time I got really confused when i tried to really understand it and followed the instructions step by step, it just sent me in a loop between all the different pages.
A simple question and a simple answere in the ROM-thread solved my confusion then, and now I just ignore the ramblings in the instruction pages.

I have a question about this. As my HD was replaced (warranty) I don't know which version I have (O2 or HTC). My first HD was a O2 branded with 1.14.207 ROM, the replaced one (from the same supplier) came with the 1.14.407 ROM which is the official German HTC ROM. I've just tried to download the newly released ROM by HTC, but the site states that the new ROM is not available for my device (but I could at least register the device). Could be that this is because it's an O2 device or probably because the new ROM wasn't yet released in German?
So is it really important to flash exactly the stock ROM (as the CID has to fit) or is it okay - like Laurentius said - to flash any stock ROM? Don't wanna brick my device when upgrading to 1.54/1.56...btw...why one has to go to a stock ROM when upgrading to 1.5x afterwards? Is there a difference when upgrading from 1.14 to 1.5x instead of 1.19 to 1.5x? I didn't get it yet...
Thanks in advance,

Any stock rom should do it as Laurentius said
A lot of confusion has come about from these newer cooked 1.56 roms so I wrote a guide. If you still have confusion please read the guide in my signature
Windows 7 is also most definitely not an issue. Several of us here are using it successfully.
Hi there, I installed "RUU_Rhodium_HTC_ARA_1.19.415.1_Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.27_Signed_Ship" on my phone, and now it is stuck on the reboot screen, and it keeps rebooting constantly. it won't boot anymore.
I tried to install a different Rom, and it still won't boot.
I tried the hot fix rhodium radio 3.46.
I tyried SPL loader. no luck
Any help is greately appreciated.
Do you have Hard SPL?
Have you tried re-flashing the stock ROM for your device, not just "another" ROM?
Dave
yes I have, I tried both.
How I got it to work, is by using rollback SPL.
But now I can not load the Arabic ROM anymore
Because I used my 1 trial.
Is there any way for me to install the Arabic ROM?

Can you boot Windows Mobile? If not, can you re-flash your carrier's ROM (hopefully they have a Ship Exe) whilst in the bootloader (see the Rhodium wiki pages)?

Have you tried Mtty?
Mine got stuck at bootloader a couple of days ago, because my computer hang in the flashing.
Second time Mtty saves me
I am able to boot into windows now, but i am unable to load the Arabic ROm.
Help please
I've had something similar.
But my phone kept reinstalling itself every time it booted.
Now I know this was a diamond, but I think it might help.
Maybe someone else could look at this as well and give his opinion about it.
The thread about this case is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493131
Hope that helps
i had this problem.. the only way that seemed to work with me is flash stock spl then flash rom.. once the rom is flashed succ run the arabic localization.. finish it n the re-flash hspl.. thats is the only way around it.. i think there's a conflict between the ara setup n hspl.. dont know if it'll work with u, but did with me since my device accepted the rom in stock spl.. hope it works for u ;-)
