How to install WM 6.1 on UNBRANDED treo 750 - Palm Treo 750 ROM Development

I was just wondering how can I install wm 6.1 on my treo 750 unbranded version. I don't want to install unnecessary olipro SPL/IPL as mine is unbranded.
Also i need to be sure that i can put back official WM 6 back after WM 6.1
Please suggest....

Olipro is required for 6.1. It does more than SIM unlock, it also disables ROM signing verification, that prevents you from running non-official ROMs.
There is (currently) no official 6.1 ROM for the Treo. There may never be, but there hasn't been a firm announcement one way or the other.

You can always revert to 6.0 by running one of the standard desktop updaters.

Will it also do away with the Olipro SPL/IPL etc-meaningto say will it roll back EVERYTHING

Yes it will.

I got my 750 ipl/spl updated using the Olipro.. how do I get 6.1 on it now?
I see pieces of information regarding the 6.1 update, but no links to the files needed and what not..
just lookin for a little assistance =P.. I search for Olipro and see it in all sorts of other threads.. is this device specific? or will any version work on any device?

Treo 750 ROM Backup

Could someone point me in the direction of how to backup the current WM5 ROM image from my Treo 750?
With the coming release of WM6 I would like to have some way of having a copy of WM5 incase I would want to go back.
Thanks.

it"s easy www.palm .com sprite backup
You don't really need to create an image, you can get an official ROM from Palm. Since there has been an official update for WM5 devices before WM6 came out

Where is this official ROM on Palm's site? I have never seen one.
It does exist
OS 5.1.195 (Build 14995.2.3.2)
Firmware version: 1.12.0c.00
It has been removed from the Palm site, but it has to be available on serveral sites I guess

Unlocked and Installed WM6.1 on ATT Treo 750

I read alot, but thought i'd post. I purchased a like new ATT Treo 750 (Locked) and was going to go somewhere and have it unlocked, I get on here and unlocked it following Summiter's steps here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335661 and then installed the WM6.1 (Rom is here: http://rs86.rapidshare.com/files/97839859/Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD.rar) Standard rom using the KaiserCustomRUU.exe and man, it is awesome.
The Treo is up and running with WM6.1 on T-Mobile and everything works, even the data connection automatically is configured.... Phone is still branded ATT and still has the built-in crap for ATT .. haven't gone that far, but hey, it works great, a few extra icons, I can live with...
This site is great, and as from reading ALOT of posts, I must say if your looking to unlock or upgrade then do what most people say -- SEARCH & READ -- instead of waiting for someone to hold your hand ...
Any how, saved me $40 from unlocking so I have to donate to xda now
To all ... keep up the good work, especially the ones who take the time to write the step by steps (er..hrmm... cough .."Summiter"..cough) .. You ppl need to appreciate it! ..
Keep it up guys!!
You have 6.1 with AT&T stuff in it? I did not know there was a 6.1 with AT&T stuff in it, are you sure it's MW6.1?
yessir ...
software version treo750-2.25-att
firmware 1.16
win mobile pro 6.1
I didn't unbrand it or anything, i was jus trying to unlock it, and kept crashing at the 2nd step, so i said screw it and just poped in my tmo sim and it worked ... never flashed the radio since i had full bars (sacramento, ca) and them just flashed the 6.1 cooked rom on it afterwards.. and boom! it werks fine ...
but yea, it finally rebooted a 3rd time and proceeded to install the att junk...
ok, installed a unbranded WM6 rom over the 6.1 and no more ATT junk, then installed the WM6.1 rom again and now is clean 6.1 install ...
Ok, now I get it
HI, can you please expalin a little more how to do this.....is this KAISER a program??
I want to upgrade to 6.1 but I'm just afraid to damage my Treo 750.
Is there a step by step tutorial??
Thanks!
PS: I'm already downloading the ROM
I too have downloaded the rom and am ready for or looking for the instructions on reflashing my unlocked palm treo 750. Thanks
Euhm the Kaiser stands for the HTC Tytn 2, so you have tytn2 rom on your treo 750?

Hi, where did you find the unbranded 6.0 rom for your treo? I have the official 6.0 updated WM6.0 rom. I too use T-Mobile and would like to get the AT&T crap off my phone....Thanks for the help!
Do you need to unlock your locked phone to put on the att rom WM6.1 on an att branded phone? I have ATT service and wanted to try WM6.1. Currently i have WM6.
Thanks
Unlocker Application
Where is a link to download the unlocker application for the Treo 750? I did find the link to download the WM6.1 OS rar, but not the unlocker application.

Or you could just go to the phone manufacturers website and download the applicable file there and follow their (comprehensive) instructions. If you want to keep things all official, it's actually a very straightforward process. You only need to bother with hardSPL etc if you want to flash a custom ROM. A very important question you should ask yourself is why do I want WM 6.1. If you're thinking it's newer so it must be more reliable/better/faster etc etc check out the threads in Kaiser General relating to all the problems after upgrading - at least with regards to most of the official HTC ROM offerings (certainly the current UK one is included). I tried WM 6.1 for a while and had such significant problems, I had it reverted back to 6.0.
MMMMMM
To me WM 6.1 appearance is more sexier than the WM 6.0. Thats why am looking to upgrade my device in to WM 6.1
Flying Kiwi has a point about doing it officially - I'd forgotten that there was an official 6.1 rom. That said, for me custom roms are much more fun!
I've had both 6.0 and 6.1 on my phones and to be honest, I can't tell the difference.

What are you doing with your phone ......
Having tried both, there's very little difference between the two as far as the TyTN II native ROMs are concerned. It's only the customised ROMs that offer a flashier flash (but you can also get alot of that stuff through installing cabs - full details in the wiki and by searching/reading up on the xda-dev website).

Is your phone unlocked ? Is it a cooked 6.5 or an official ? If it is an official upgrade you can't go back without unlocking your phone and flashing 6.1 as a cooked rom.
This is a cracked version, from this forum.
Its also flashed.
I want to go back because i want norwegian keyboard!

The just look around or look in the wiki for a norwegian rom and flash it as you would any other rom.

There has never been released an official 6.5 rom for The Kaiser, So that is impossible. The kaiser he has is unlocked. So you can just download a rom and install it(Should read the post for fully compatibility).

Thanks for the redundant information, isn't that what I said in the post directly above ? Getting our post count up are we ?
P.S. This isn't the only site I try to help people with their HTC phones on, nor is the Kaiser the only platform I try to advise on. While you are correct in that 6.5 has never been released for the Kaiser, 6.5 has been released on many more european roms and devices than in the US

Having difficulty downgrading from WM 6.5 to WM 6.1 (SPL Issue)

Hi
I just bought a 2nd hand HTC Touch HD and it came with WM 6.5 already installed. I didn't like it cos it wasn't the official ROM so I decided to downgrade it back to the original WM 6.1 ROM. So I downloaded the official ROM and downgraded it back to WM 6.1. However, after a reset now, I'm having the "green screen" problem where the screen colours go bizarre every time I reset the device and after switching the device on/off it gets back to normal.
I then discovered that the SPL and ROM numbers need to match. My device's current SPL version is 1.56 and the ROM version is Orange 1.19.61.1. So how do I downgrade my SPL to 1.19?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Everything about flashing you'll find HERE
I agree (but it's just my opinion ;-)), that 6.1 suits better for HD, but I think that there are lots of better ROMs than stock and everything you can find on xda-developers (I prefer kwbr's Topix based on WM6.1 (3.5 or older 3.1.2) - they are one of the most up-to-date WM6.1 ROMs)
i agree with the post above. if you want to go back to 6.1, try the latest topix 6.1 version.
just as fast as the original ROM, but with lots of newer features
