how to downgrade to original rom - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

can anyone tell me how i can downgrade to the original rom as the 1.93 one has messed up my phone big time

Same here. its back to the stock rom for my mda!

If you go to the HTC website, you should be able to log in to the "HTC Club" and download the 1.37 ROM.

Have you tried to hard reset the phone? and stert the setting from 0, how did you manage to mess up your phone

How about backing up rom that i've got i my diamond.
I'm asking because i have polish localization and very nice keyboard.
Is there any way to extract from my rom that localization and other interesting apps and then install it to the roms that are here on that forum.

When I log in to HTC Club I can only see one ROM to download and that is the 1.93. Can someone post a link to the Original 1.37 ROM on the HTC site?
Thanks

Never mind, I see they completely changed their ROM download system. No idea how to get it from there now.

Thanks for that. Anyone know where I can get the 1.37 ROM from in case I don't like the new one?
Thanks

If im not mistaking, the cd you got with the original package contains the 1.35/1.37 depending on which rom you had when you recieved your phone.
But the rom messing up your phone isn't logic it's more likely you didn't close all programs during the flashing proces or that the blame is on software you installed later on.

just to let you know i rung HTC and they told me that there is no way of officially downgrading your rom to stock again. They also said the official update works fine so if anyone is having problems they wont help you with that. Thankfully i changed to a new sim card and that seems to have sorted out some of the issues

WM6 for Herald (P4350) announced in http://www.europe.htc.com/en/

... but, the link doesn't work properly!!!
They are working in wrong direction
They announce it on frontpage, then later they might add it as a content for us to download
Usually ppl set up things to work before they announce, lol
Very good news.
But I think it is the same ROM that ftp://210.136.175.150/romcode/RomCode/HERALD-C9
How safe is it to do the update right now? I dont want to brick the HTC again

As long as we are talking about a P4350 (not a wing, or dpod), and updates are available in your local language, you shouldn't have any problems with the current Herald updates.
Well look at the image below:
It looks like I am downgrading!
yeah, i also wonderd about this fact, but it's okay.
Well it worked like a charm...!
And now is WM6 ROM available on HTC website!
Sign in to HTC eClub, and you will be able to download the official ROM (same version as the one that showed up last week)!

Hello
Is there someone installed this ROM.
In the e-club I can see the ROM version and the radio version are different than ftp://210.136.175.150/romcode/RomCode/HERALD-C9

No they aren't... Don't mind the printscreen of the rom info they placed there. If you go directly to the download, you'll see that it's the same rom
Why can't I install it on my T-Mobile wing?
It wouldn't work?
I am sick of the t-mobile rom.

Because it's a Wing, not a Herald.. You probably get the wrong Model ID error?
Just try to install WM6 in ASerg way.

You must reflash with a 6.1 ROM. With an Hard reset you have simply reload the 6.5 .

HTC HD
Hello can some one help i have an htc hd and currently running 6.5 rom, now i have some phone damage thats not caused by the rom this is a factory issue but anyway i want to default to 6.1 rom like it originally came from factory that way i can be covered under warranty phone is european was purchased in london i believe thats what the seller told me but anyway some one please give me ideas and brief instructions on how to flash the 6.1 original hd settings???
You can reflash to 6.1 using the ROM on the HTC website:
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=533
That should get you back to what it was for a claim under the warranty.
May be you not already run HSPL

Firstly, you need to first reflash to a stock rom. Many stock roms can be found here.
Next, you need to revert to a stock spl which matches your rom. Depending on the rom you use this could be either 1.13, 1.14 or 1.54. You may need a little trial and error to find the right one. You'll have some colour issues with the rom if you use the wrong one (ie blue/green low res graphics). The procedure to follow and the stock spl's can be found at the bottom of this post
Follow ClydeB1's advice and you should be fine. Any further queries on returning to stock, post in this thread

Orange Branded HD - Upgrade ROM

Hi Guys
Ive done a search but cant find anything specific so im starting a a new thread.
I have a Touch HD which I got through Orange UK.
Rom version sis: 1.19.61.1 WWE
At the moment im told that I cant receive any updates directly from the HTC site and orange dont really seem to care about offering a good after service.
So my option is to flash my phone with a new ROM, however which version to go for is my biggest question and I really dont have any idea. I understand the flash proceure. WIll any ROM allow updates from HTC site?
Thanks
Craig
hi
i also have a uk branded orange touch hd
i flashed it with the latest official rom from htc (the one that needs a serial number to download and the orange serials dont work)
just use a serial provided in the offical rom upgrade thread to download the rom from htc and use uspl 2.5 to flash it
i used uspl 2.5 to upgrade the rom
all info can be found using the search fuction on this forum
i also made a dump of the phone before i flashed it, just need someone to rebuild the .raw files to a flashable rom
hope this helps
math
Nice one Math, that helps a lot! Will give this a go over the weekend.

Ok, where do we start? Which ROM you choose is really a bit like asking what car should I choose to buy. The choice is entirely yours based on what you want and what you like.
I think the first question to ask yourself is what do you want? What Windows Mobile OS do you want? WM6.1, WM 6.1 with Touch flow, WM 6.1 with the latest version of Touch flow or WM 6.5 Beta. I'm sure there are more but lets keep it simple.
WM 6.1 or 6.5? HTC Touch Flow or not? What is your native language as you have nothing set in your profile etc?
May I suggest you have a look through the first few posts of each of the ROM threads for this month and see what takes your fancy. If you ask ten people you will get ten possibly different answers.
Look at peoples signatures and see what most people use as most display what current ROM they are using. Maybe try a few, but I suggest use the safest route and follow the instructions to the letter.
Its always a matter of personal opinion but I like Duttys current WM6.1 with TF3D XT3. It's the latest and well tested with fewer bugs than the stock ROM from HTC (IMHO) and is based on the latest technology from the next gen HTC phones.
Do your research and enjoy!

Yes, the choose is your, but as an Orange user myself. I was bored with the official HTC Orange Rom and decided to flash my rom. Did manage to keep the back up on original rom in cause of warranty reason. I have try quite a lot of cook rom the only problem I had was mainly with battery life wasn’t good and will not last for a day or so. Since with this rom, HD|ROM||WWE|| ** EnergyROM HD Series 21042 - Final Topaz Manila ** || Build 40909 || man!! The software and battery life is incredible. Yes I would recommend to you

where did u get this rom from? link?
couple of newbie questions. I also have orange phone ...
If I upgrade to the latest HTC rom will I loose all my programs installed in the phones memory?
Will I loose my programs/they stop working (e.g. Tomtom) that have been reigstered with the phone (in add/remove programs) on my memory card?
Can I restore everything from a backup (sprite) ?
Is there any way of goign back to the older ROM if I need to send my phone back for warranty reasons?
Thanks

Thanks for info. Just to clarify a couple of things..
Will my sprite backup restore all programs and settings to the new rom version?
How can I backup my existing ROM? I'm guessing the official ROM is a HSPL?
Thanks

USPL and HSPL these are different method of putting new ROM to your phone.
you will find more information in here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Flash1
with this method you can get a backup of your current ROM

Thanks again. I never thought it would be so complicated. I thougth someone would have created a GUI for this stuff, its amazing what they have GUI's for these days and this is still command line.
Still unsure as to wether I can restore my sprite back up after going to 1.56 rom though. With the amount I have installed its probably not worth the effort for now.

[Q] 'Original' ROM?

Hello,
I am new to this, I know the drill. So what I needed to ask is if someone can attach a 'original' or as you call it shipped or stock ROM so I can download it. I have tried to download from the HTC site, but it didn't allowed me even if I entered my S/N. I will be very thankful to the whole community. The phone was with SFR v1615, but I wanted to change it to the English version of the not cooked ROM and being able to use all features as it supposed to be since when I installed a ROM it went well, but there were problems in the menu, camera, wi-fi, sound. I just need the 'original' one...
Best regards,
Nick.

hey guys!! i need the official upgrade for my device henever i go through the htc website they say this software is not suitable for your device, can somebody give me the direct link, heres my device serial number (S/N) :HT823GN22600
Hi guys I am looking for any compatible rom that is English. I have Diamond unit with Spanish ROM on it. I need English compatible ROM. I tried one from mediafire link above but installer gave me error saying invalid vendor id. I guess I can't just install any it needs to be specific carrier or vendor.
Here is info from about:
version: 1.93.476.3 ESN
Data 09/02/08
version 1.00.25.08
version 52.33a.25.17H
I really don't know anything about this unit I do not see any carrier markings on the box or start up screen , it looks like unbranded unit made for Spain may be. If possible provide direct link to rom I can use or may be some advice where I can look.
Thank you !

Thank you very much for your reply. Unfortunately I tried several roms that I thought are English and all of them showed me "INVALID VENDOR" error. is there anyway you can specify ROM I can use with my unit, if you not sure what I have to begin with I'd be more than happy to provide any info needed to identify unit I have.
Hard spl and you can install whatever rom u want....

CID lock (aka vendor lock): put on your device by the manufacturer to prevent installation of a ROM not released by them.
HardSPL: This modified bootloader allows a much safer flashing process to take place since it reduces the chance of permenently bricking your device. It also removes the need to CID Unlock the device since it ALWAYS reports SuperCID when flashing. See the official thread for more info.
