Hello everyone !
i have just bought this device. not yet received it ...it's on it's way. I want to find out what do i have to do with the rom or whatever to make this device work on vodafone romania network?( vodafone bought CONNEX )
I'm not sure what rom it has, most probably T mobile .
And further more, can you tell me how to upgrade to this rom?where can i buy it from and how to flash the deivce. I've read that u can only flash the rom with a specific ver...an older version.
HELP?
10x a lot
after searching a little bit ... it's not the rom i need to flash to use it on vodafone, i have to unlock it.
ok, anyone can tell me what DO I NEED to unlock and make it useable on vodafone romania?
PLS ! 10x again
Unlocking
If you do a little search around here, you'll find a software called Lokiwiz, and all you need to do is follow the instructions and you can unlock your device. it's a good Idea to do a CID unlocking as well (with the same software) before you upgrade the ROM. Right now I've been using the Mr. Clean ROM for a couple of days, and it's working fine. I would recommend that one.
Hai Noroc!
If it's T-MO branded, you will definitely have to unlock it before using it back home in good old RO
like i said in a pm, i kind of know what do i have to do. my only worry now is the downgrade to a 1.xx rom.
With the mda still CID locked & sim locked i have to downgrade to a 1.xx rom in order to use the lokiwiz right?
So, to avoid any problems while doing this, which rom should i use for 1.xx version?
after i installed the official TMobile 2.21.2.108 rom version, i am not able to unlock the unit.
I would like to try and install original Qtek/HTC roms or Custom Roms created by other users.
Is there a way to unlock the Vario when it has the 2.21 rom installed? A friend of mine has an older version, and he can do whatever he wants with it.
Are you talking about CID or SIM unlock?
It would help also if you told us what unlocker software and it's version you used.

You cannot CID unlock 2.xx Roms yet.
1) You simply had to unlock before you upgraded to 2.21
2) Or lookup the thread for upgrading your device without CID unlock.

I´ve a HTC 3600 and installed Hard-SPL Olipro 1.20 then executed the application for releasing the Sim and CID restrictions of my HTC.
I keept the WM5 ROM and tested the device. The Sim is now unlocked, i suppose so is CID, how can I check this before installing a new cooked ROM?
My gps was working fine, now I can´t get gps signal, do I need a radio update? Which is recommended? Did the sim unlocking process downgraded my radio rom
ROM: 1.23.410.2
RADIO: 1.16.00.00
thanks in advance
you are right
Unlocking P3600 downgrades the radio...
Therefore you cannot use GPS until you upgrade the radio again.
Take a look here, http://trinityguides.info/index.php , choose a gps enabled radio and upgrade...
Thanks, I also thought that.
Which of the Radio Rom´s should I choose?
Radio 1.38.00.11
Radio 1.41.00.11
Radio 1.46.00.11/30.11
Radio 1.50.08.11
How I can I check if my CID was succesfully unlocked? I want to install a new ROM with a different language.
If you installed hard spl on your device, it doesn't matter if you have cid unlocked or not, cause hardspl let's you install any rom in any language.
As for the radio, it depend's on your carrier and the country you are in.
I see you are in Portugal so you can use the latest version (Radio 1.50.08.11), it works just fine for me.
Humm, I´ve read that the latest ROM cause mora battery drain than the others, is this true?
What improvements are present in the latest ROM´s compared to 1.38 ?
Will be receiving a HTC TyTN II. It will be Orange branded and sim locked.
I understand the first thing will be to install Hard SPL.
1. Now, I read somewhere that HTC haven't released any official ROMs of their own with Windows Mobile 6.1. Why is it that the Shipped ROMs wiki page has them here?
2. Whether or not they are HTC's own 6.1 ROMs, there are three I'm willing to try. They are (and I'm just copying and pasting these from the Shipped ROMs wiki page):
3.03.405.0 (Radio 1.64.06.04) updated original WWE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365047
3.02.405.0 (Radio 1.58.26.20) original WWE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365068
3.28.405.0 (Radio 1.65.16.25) original HTC WWE (World Wide English) found here http://rapidshare.com/files/1170540....0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.16.25_Ship.zip
These three seem to be "original" HTC Windows Mobile 6.1 ROMs. All are worldwide English. So what's the difference between each? Should I simply assume the one with the higher version number is the better one?
they have released wm6.1 check htc.com....
htc e-club...

Thanks for confirming for me. I can't check the e-Club yet as I will be getting the phone maybe tomorrow. Anyhow, I really just want the original (and latest if possible) HTC Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM. Which should I pick form the list in the original post. Is one of them the same as the current one on HTC's e-Club?

As your kaiser is Orange branded you will not be able to download from HTC, i wont recognise your imei. You should be able to find a link here, just root about the threads a bit. I'd start with the XDA kaiser wiki.

Thanks. Yup, I found 3 that seem to be HTC originals. Don't know how up to date they are with HTC's e-Club but they should do. From the three I have found below, I'm assuming the higher version is the latest (3.28.405.0), but why does the Shipped ROMs Wiki page not just delete the other 2 and keep the latest one?
Here are the 3 I found:
3.03.405.0 (Radio 1.64.06.04) updated original WWE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365047
3.02.405.0 (Radio 1.58.26.20) original WWE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365068
3.28.405.0 (Radio 1.65.16.25) original HTC WWE (World Wide English) found here http://rapidshare.com/files/11705402...16.25_Ship.zip
Question 1: Which should I go for, the one I'm assuming as the latest (3.28.405.0), or are all three completely different things?
Question 2: Do these HTC ROMs include all the bundled HTC software that would normally come on an original HTC TyTN II Kaiser?
I'd really like these 2 questions answered before I try the upgrade.

Some users have better luck with older versions, or older radios. Newest isn't always better

Appear to be different build versions an different radios, Some builds/radios work better for some users than others.

Read the thread attached to them., it will tell you what comes with the rom and what doesn't

Hope this helped in some way. The best way to find the best ROM/Radio is to try them all and see what suits you the best.
Just remember that you will need to unlock the phone too, otherwise installing a new radio (which is needed for WM6.1) will lock your phone and require an unlock code. There is free software on this site to do that for you. Just follow it to the letter and try and use sim cards that are not sim code locked (which i done and had so many problems getting it unlocked)
If it arrives soon you have a very good chance it will have 6.1. If not there is a 6.1 update for download on the Orange UK 6.1 thread. With this you wouldn't have to 'crack' it and invalidate any warranty?
This is what I did and then load the cabs you want. I think every htc cab you could ever need is in here.

I think we are referring to Security unlocking. This process ensures that you phone cannot become bricked by installing the latest radios from HTC that have extra security. Without security unlock you cannot downgrade these radios without a tool called FrankenKaiser.
I'd recommend Sec Unlock for every user, It can be re-locked later if need be.
Thanks
Dave
Yes but the Orange UK phones are radio locked too, which requires the phone to sim unlocked and HardSPL installed to (To prevent Bricking)

Thank you all for your replies.
The phone will have Windows Mobile 6.1 on it, but it's Orange branded with Orange's bloatware. I would prefer just installing the default HTC ROMs. It's also going to be SIM locked to Orange (I confirmed all this before purchase). But, buying the Orange one also worked out cheaper for me.
Question 1:The first thing I'm going to try is SIM unlocking it, while keeping the Orange ROM as it is. Then I'll try a non-Orange SIM card and see if it works. Will I be able to simply unlock the SIM by just using KaiserUnlocker.exe?
Question 2:After that, if I don't like the Orange branded Windows Mobile 6.1, isn't it simply a case of installing HardSPL v3.x.x (latest) and then continuing with the HTC ROM flash procedure as found here?
Question 3:I've just read some replies above about security unlocking. I'll need to do that as well? Is it automatic as part of HardSPL version 3.x.x?
Sorry for all the questions, I've done and still am researching the Wiki/stickies. I figure it'll save time if I clarify the steps now before attempting anything risky.

You must have Hard SPL v1 OliPof to use the Kaiser SIM Unlocker (from here)
The security unlock is not part of the Hard SPL 3.* process, there is a seperate thread by jocky on Security unlocking.
Thanks

Ah, but then the KaiserUnlocker says I must also be on a Windows Mobile 6.0 ROM to SIM unlock it, and my Orange phone will come with a 6.1 ROM. And on the HardSPL v3 FAQ, it says if you're on a 6.1 ROM, you should use HardSPL v3.
So, does this mean I can't unlock the SIM, without first installing HardSPL v3, downgrading to a HTC 6.0 ROM, then installing HardSPL v1, use KaiserUnlocker, then install HardSPL v3 again and upgrade to HTC 6.1 ROM?
Or what better option does an Orange-branded HTC TyTN II Windows Mobile 6.1 Sim-locked phone have?

Install Hard SPL v3 and try the SIM Unlock, sometimes it will work, if it fails, downgrade to Hard SPL v1 and Flash a WM6.0 ROM. Then Sim unlock, then Flash the 3.* Hard SPL and a WM6.1 ROM & Radio.
Thanks

Excellent, I will try this method and let you know how it goes. Thanks.
HI people I am a newbie here, I have upgraded my HTC phone from the stock ROM to the official version 1.93.XXX and its not allowing me to do a hardSPL, I am unable to unlock the phone (the carrier is Airtel from India), could someone upload the stock ROM 1.34.XXX ASIA WWE
The phone that I use is HTC touch diamond P3490 ROM current 1.93.XXX
what am i trying to do? I am trying to unlock the phone from Airtel carrier but unable to do because I am not able to install Hardspl and I am thinkin of downgrading the version to 1.34.XX and then try the HardSPL and unlock the phone using diamunlock.exe that I found in one of the threads here.
