kaiser rom update for t-mobile handset uk - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

hi there,
i got a kaiser (mda vario 3 ) from t-mobile in 2007 december...
i been waiting for the new wm6.1 to come out,
i tried entering my serial number from my phone to the htc support website and it doesnt seem to recognise it,...
i spoke to t-mobile, they say it should recognise , other than that they cant help me?
does any one else have this problem or, i wud be great full if sum lend me thier serial or put up a official htc rom link to wm6.1
thanks

Since its a phone branded t-mobile, the SN is not recognised as an original HTC phone...
But it also seems a lot of people are having problem with their SN on the newly created HTC download interface, so it could also be HTC website's fault. (see other "New HTC ROM related threads" in this forum)

i updated with the first 6.1 HTC ship rom . That works very well. Havent tried this newer update yet. look at the first sticky in the rom section and try downloading it from here instead

No official WM06 upgrade from HTC

Hiya
Sorry if this was already common knowledge but the article about a WM06 upgrade for the HTC3300 led me to contact HTC it see if one was due soon for the HTC3600 / trinity

The P3600 is an HTC Branded device, they should at least get one consistant answer
Good day for everyione,
I have to say that the d810 update was made by DopDop and not by HTC. That's why there is a WM6 vertion for DopDop.
Best regards,
Dave
DODOP it is the reseller of HTC...
anyway it's like orange who sell the HTC as QTEK9100 if i'm not wrong

No, Orange did not sell the wizard as Qtek 9100. It was sold as SPV M3000.
SPV is Orange's Brand for HTC phones.
That was in the past. In the future, Orange will not personalize HTC phones anymore. They will be sold as HTC, just like the plain unbranded phones.
As far as Dopod and HTC are concerned, I think the problem is different. Obviously Dopod BELONGS to HTC.
That's why there isn't any dopod's support website anymore, and Dopod customers must download their updates directly from HTC website!
So HTC has got the responsibility of the Dopod rom and make the support for it.
SPV roms are downloadable from Orange websites, not from Qtek or HTC one.
HTC gives NO support to SPV (Orange) roms and takes no responsibiliy about them.
You cannot compare the two cases.
HTC is fooling people around, because DOPOD = HTC. It's just that they don't want to give wm6 to Western customers!!

Hi everyone,
I have downloaded the Rom from the HTC Australian website but it will not complete the Rom upgrade on my P3600, I keep getting an error message saying ‘update error’ (Error 286). I have tried the suggested solutions like soft reset and taking out the battery but the error message keeps coming up after several attempts.
Any suggestions?
You should take the SPL/IPL out of that ROM, this is why you can't install it, it is protected to install only on dopod's phones.
You sould, first of all install a hard SPL on your phone to prevent bricking it.

Hello again
Thaanks for your suggestions. if I understaood properly: I deleted the file (SPL.nbh) from the rom folder, i installed the files called hardspl_120.zip) and (Hard-SPL_ZakMcRofl.zip) to my device P3600. but, the error message keeps coming up just as the rom update reaches 28%.
Thanks again

If you still having this kind of problem, it means your device is not CID unlock yet.
The Hard SPL you should install are not those (I don't know which file you are refering to). Check out this Trinty upgrade thread, there should be Hard SPL Olipro or Des available. These are the ones you should install.
I'm afraid the ROM you are trying to install still have some kind of protection too. On this site, you'll find Dopod ROM, without IPL/SPL, try to install that one. this is what I did, and I never had any 28% error.

(problem) Register @ HTS E-club

well
got the following problem
I have HTC tytn2 (Mda vario 3)
but i want to download updates from E-club site.
when i enter my S/N i cant register
does anyone have a fix for this, of has en S/N from original TYTN2??
thnx in advance
On the site it tells you that you can only register HTC branded phones i.e. not T-Moby, Organe, etc ones.
I can tell you that from personal experience, because I got the same thing with my vario 3.
On a side note, lots of people are having issues with WM6.1 anyway, if that's what you are looking for, so I just stuck to the tried and tested WM6
already using wm 6.1 dutty nothrills rom v3
What you need is in my sig. If you have additional questions, post in the existing HTC WM6.1 online thread.

Official HTC ROM

I want to install the latest official HTC ROM on my trinity, but the download is no longer available for me on the HTC e-club site.
I'm keen to keep to an official ROM and, even though I know that 6.x is cool - I want to stick to what's official and legal.
Does anyone know where I can download the latest official rom?
no-one got any idea?
Here's my HTC WM5 version, as far as i can recall it is the genuine HTC one with GPS enabled.
ADrive
Just to confirm that HTC released a very leagal and offical Windows Mobile 6.0 ROM & it is still available for download from the HTC web site.
Look for "D810 / HTC P3600i WM6 GPS Enabled ROM code" for your area/network, relelased october 2007 (version 3.00.707.XX where xx = localised release per phone network).
I've just logged into the Australia HTC web site & can see these roms & the links do work.
Unfortunately without the serial number of an AU issued Trinity i can't get to the downloads. My UK issued one "doesn't exist". And to make it even more annoying the new ROMs are not on the european site.

Whats that new ROM update on the HTC website

I posted below in another thread.... but that was not specific on this new update ... so i start a thread on this
YES the windows 6.1 update is the one from april may ... AND YES its not new .....
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=13&cat=2&dl_id=21 ( FOR THE "OLD" WM 6.1 upgrade )
.... its the system operating rom update thats new . It is on for download since about a week since they started with the new download system.
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=13&cat=2&dl_id=23 ( For the NEW and UNKNOWN upgrade )
To me its weird that a lot of website and press were talking about the new 6.1 update a few months ago. Now there is a second ROM on their website since a week and no one seams to be interested in that. What if it contains HTC solution to the videodrivers or something ??? But again .... nobody seams to have spotted this new ROM in the "press world" .
So again .....
ITS NOT the normal wm 6.1 update ....... its the " HTC TyTN II - Operating System [ROM] Update " thats new on the htc website!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was not on in the old HTC download system (via ECLUB) and is just on there website since about 7 days .
maaaaaaaaaan
Small note : the NORMAL wm6.1 upgrade is stated as a "HOTFIX" on the HTC download site and the operating ROM upgrade is stated as an "ROM upgrade"
Now the problem is ... my S/N works with the NORMAL WM6.1 download. But the NEW "ROM UPGRADE" does not accept my S/N .
OW AND ABOUT THE DATE OF 2008-08-04 ......
thats august the 4th 2008 .... thats the date the new HTC download system went in operation and probably the date that page was made. SO ALL DOWNLOADS for the tytn 2 have this date ..... also the older ones. The date says noting about the release .... the second ROM UPGRADE in the tytn 2 download list ..... THATS THE MYSTERY because it was not on for dowload PRIOR the date of 2008-08-04 ... just the 6.1 upgrade and some other small bugfixes
Can anybody tell me what this secoind rom does (changelog)
*update* today it accepted my serial but now i get : Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device ..... weird i really have a htc tytn II
*UPDATE ** Now the links changed and i also see touch diomond "HTC Touch Cruise Operating System [ROM] Upgrade" in the downloadlist ......... sigh
I tihink it's an older update, but because the support site changed they put it on again with the same date (2008-08-04) as the 6.1 rom upgrade...
Well like i said in my post ....... before there was ONLY the 6.1 ROM update.
To my knowledge there NEVER was an ROM update EXEPT for the 6.1 update.
Before the 6.1 update there were only hotfixes and patches on the HTC website. So how could they post an older ROM when they never posted an older ROM
This message is from htc support (June 19th):
"I am sorry but are not still ready the patch post 6.1 update
I sugegst you after save your details and personal data to perform
hard reset
start.settings.system.clear storage
If not solve please call us at your local number for investigate on line"
My english isn't very good but this answer is in terrible english.
Reading the message I understand there is a 6.1 patch coming. Maybe it's the rom update that's on the site now and maybe they still need to add the device serial numbers for us to download it?

Guys My Serial No. Works For the The Updates.
WM 6.1 update is the same old update but with a new radio so it might be having some patches.
The second one is WM6 rom which came originally with my tytnII its a very old rom with nothing new in it.
Yup could be the 6.0 Rom. The thing i can't understand is why it was never on before ( could not download the 6.0 ROM 1 year ago after i bought the TyTn II and 2 weeks ago it was not on either) and why my device is not suitable for that Rom with my serial.... i origanally bought it with the 6.0
*UPDATE ** Now the links changed (i adapted the in the starting post ) and i also see touch cruise "HTC Touch Cruise Operating System [ROM] Upgrade" in the downloadlist ......... sigh ... perhaps this is a mistake while the are working at the website .... wonder what happens if i use the cruise upgrade at my tytn II
These 2 files are on HTC website:

Umm, I know this is not as exciting as 1080p playback and 3D drivers supporting DirectX 11.0 but perhaps it IS just a new radio and nothing else?
The Swedish ROM has also changed
Old: 3.29.413.0 & 1.65.16.25
New: 3.29.413.0 & 1.65.17.56
I logged in to HTC Club and checked and there they said that there where no upgrades awailable for me but then i checked the link in the 1st post
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=13&cat=all
i found a file to download
I guess is that this is only an radio upgrade
or...
From a HTC rep we heard that there will be a full ROM update next week. Just hope this news actually is true. I would like to see a new official ROM.
Next week could be the time ..... but I'm a newb, so what do I know?
well what no one seems to be able to answer is if it is possible to download the tytn II update and install on the tilt (essentially the same phone) and if it is possible how do you go about downloading it? (htc requires a serial number)
You can download the TyTn II ROM for the Tilt. Its posted on here somewhere. And yes it works.
This Is The Best update
Now my TyTN works better then ever.
This ROM was the best.
The GPS starts imidiatly. I mean, when i start iGO 8 and i go directly to check the satelites they are green and ready.
As soon as i start iGO im ready to use it, NO waiting at all.
Before when i was talking on the phone the battery got warm and it wasnt so nice to talk for long.
Now it never change temp or if it does i dont feel it.
And with the new camera that the cool Navida supplied, i am very satisfied with my TyTN II

Can not get update from HTC support? anyone have this prob?

Hi guys. Just upgraded from an original Touch to a Diamond. Before I start setting it up, I went to HTC's site to get the latest updates.
I love cusotmizing my device with themes, pic etc, but I am not into flashing cooked roms (yet).
HTC has 2 rom upgrades on their site. One from like July last year and one from Jan of this year.
When I enter my S/N it says my device does not support this rom???
I have a Diamond P3700
The current rom is Rom Base 1.93.422.4 Dated July 18th 2008
Radio 1.09.25.23
Am, I missing something? Was the January 09 update not for some Diamonds?
I know when you flash its like a hard reset, so I want to have the latest official rom on my device before I start putting in all my info.
Anyone have this issue???
thanks!
Mike,
if you got your device from a mobile operator or have a "branded" phone (T-Mobile, Vodafone, Verizon, Orange, whatever), you'll probably have no access to updates from the HTC website. Operators make some changes to the ROM (themes, settings, applications) so they reserve the right to select which updates they make available to their customers. (Booooo.)
In that case, the only thing you can do is ask your operator (visit their website) if there are any updates available.
You'll have unrestricted access to HTC's updates only if you have a "free" device.
N.
FYI : Bell is currently working on a ROM version with HTC guys. It should be out somewhere during this year. (I hope so, because the ROM Bell gives is really retarded)
I have a unbranded unlocked phone and have the same problem. Support replied that the 2.03 ROM is not yet available for Eastern Europe phones (my case by the looks of it). No info on release date for us though.
There is a new Touch Diamond ROM posting in HTC website here:
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=483&news_id=68
You may input your serial number to see whether this new ROM suitable for your device or not.
Same here
I've tried to download the new ROM but get a out of service message. Someone must have this ROM and can give access to it?
Thanks
upgrading ROM
my experience with upgarding via HTC website.
i have a HTC Artemis + HTC Touch Diamond, both came with English WM OS.
Bought both in mainland China though they both imported, Artemis via Taiwan, and Touch Diamond via HK.
when i tried to obtain latest ROM via HTC HK website last week of Feb 2009, basically i could only download the RUU 2.03 CHT_CHS ROM. i was not allowed to download the English language version of the ROM. Here's HTC explanation.
The two phones were shipped via the original HTC agents in both countries with HTC CHT (Traditional Chinese) ROM's. Even though i bought both phones in mainland China with English ROM's. (Obviously the store or a supplier on the mainland had flashed the English HK ROM's).
Basically HTC's view is that flashing the ROM's with any other ROM outside what it shipped with OEM voids the warranty (if one is not careful, one can also brick the phone too!) LOL
Interestingly this means that my new phones were void of warranty initially anyway the day i bought them, since i bought them from the dealer with English version ROM (official HK English ROM), though both phones were meant to be CHT ROM's. If i sent either phone back to their respective HTC service depts. artemis to Taiwan or Touch Diamond to HK, i would have been out of luck claiming warranty!
(anyway i got my hands on the official HK/Taiwan English ROM's and flashed my phones myself... HTC have been a fat lot of use over any technical support issues i have contacted them about in the past).
Note that not all ROM's are the same, service providers and manufacturers can decide what is and what isn't included in their respective ROM, which consequently locks the phone to that ROM and any future updates. Even though one may think they are buying an unlocked phone, with no restrictions etc. how certain can you be of how it was shipped ex-factory, or the route that the phone took before arriving in store?
OP, it sounds to me as though you have a phone that had been altered somehow before you bought it, and is not supported for the upgrade ROM you want. The same situation that applies in my case.
One way to check is try downloading all the different ROM's there are on all the different HTC region/country websites using your serial number... sooner or later you will find the right ROM even you may not want it, but at least you will know the status of how your phone was setup ex factory... because if the ROM was changed somewhere between ex-factory and the store without HTC's okay then your phone is void of warranty (unless you flash it back to OEM).
sinned69 is right, you can't just go to any HTC site and download a ROM, your serial number matches a certain region and you must go to that HTC region site, from there you will be able to download the ROM. Where (which country) did you buy the phone, or do you know where it came from? If you know this information, then just go to that HTC region site.

By the end of January, I called HTC hotline. They said they'll upload East EU version next week. It's March and I can't download anything. How do you think, isn't it time to remind HTC has to release a East EU rom?
No luck-
I tried downloading the newest HTC update from Feb 09-- still says your device is not supported.
I downloaded the file using a provided serial in another thread for the WWE version.
Can I use this file to flash my rom????
My diamond is an UNBRANDED and UNLOCKED version.
It's a 1.93.422.4 WWE currently...
Any idea if this will work ok for me?????
HTC Diamond in South Africa
Although I am a member of the HTC europe club, I do not have access to the 2.03 Jan release ROM at this stage.
The reason for this is that the SA agents have still not had the ROM approved by our Network Operators, so the HTC Club site continues to post the old Rom.
Once the approval is given, HTC will post the new ROM for us to upgrade.
HTC uses the serial numbers to control who gets what ROM upgrades.
Our phones are HTC branded and not network locked. It is illegal for networks to lock phones in SA.
