Apologies if this seems a basic question.
I know this is a place for experts but i've honestly checked for hours for an answer to this and cant find one. I've a second hand touch diamond which was bought on ebay. I dont know whether or not I need to update the ROM from the HTC website( as i've heard it improves certain aspects of it).
My present settings are as follows:
Rom Version: Duttys DiamV2.5 WWE
Rom date: 12/10/08
Radio version: 1.00.25.08
Protocol version 52.33a.25.17U
Its originally an orange phone (UK) and I'm using it in Ireland.
apologies again if it seems too basic

Just received my MDA last monday....brand new....
Been reading this forumn extensively and I wonder...
My rom is
Rom Version: 1.06.00 ENG
rom dat: 08/05/04
Radio version: 1.00.00
Protocol version: 1337.3
ExtRom version: 1.06.118 WWE
Questions:
- Is it correct that there are no rom upgrades available for me?
- It is possible to only upgrade the radio version? Bluetooth headphone is echooing on the other side.
- I have already upgraded my bluetooth to 3900 with the audio.dll
Top left side of your screen is a link to wiki, your phone is a blueangel, getting started is always a good place to start.
Below this thread there a 2 threads with tmobile in the topic, read them.
There is a search funtion, which you will learn about in getting started at the top and middle of the scren you are looking at.
And after all that, have fun and welcome to xda.
Hi Guys,
I know this might sound like a stupid beginner question but
a. I read the forums and didn't find good info on Dutch T-Mobile MDA-3
b. I promise that if I get help from you guys - I will pitch in and help others. So thanks for helping out !
I have a Dutch MDA 3 from T-Mobile with the following:
ROM Version 1.06.00 ENG
ROM date: 08/05/04
Radio Version: 1.00.00
Protocol version 1337.30
ExtROM version: 1.06.118 WWE
My questions:
a. Is there an upgrade ROM for this phone? I called T-Mobile and they said that they are not sure when and if there will be and upgrade.
b. Is it worth upgrading? I guess newer is better but still - what becomes better - is the bluetooth clearer? is the WIFI range improved? is the phone's stability better?
c. Again, thanks a lot for the kind help
It does not necessarily need to be a T-MOB ROM...please study the forum and read the link in my signature.
All the info you are seeking can be found here.
Hi everybody.
First of all, thanks for this really nice forum.
I am a complete newbie in Pocket PC world. I am coming from Palm world. In fact, I was so much disapointed by palm that I decided to switch.
So, I have just purchased in London a second hand T-Mobile MDA III. I have unlock really easily with the program I found on this forum.
Now I want to upgrade the ROM because regarding the version of mine, it seems pretty old. Here is my version description :
ROM Version : 1.06.00 ENG
ROM date : 08/05/04
Radio Version : 1.00.00
Protocol Version : 1337.30
ExtROM version : 1.06.117 WWE
Model No. : PH20B
I have read a lot of information about this subject, but to be honest I am completly lost.
First I don't understand what is an extended rom ? I mean why there is two roms.
Secondly, what is the last version of the ROM I can use to upgrade my MDA III. I don't care that much about the T-Mobile configuration since I am using it in France. So anyway I will have to put another configuration for my carrier. So what ROM can I put and what is the process to do the upgrade. For the moment I don't want to upgrade to WM5 just new version of WM2003 SE. In fact, if at the same time I can get rid of the T-Mobile branding, it would be great, but it's my principal reason for upgrade.
Also, my last question is that sometimes after using my mda, it seems to run quite slow, specially display. Do you know what is the reason ? I am thinking it might be relating with the use of WM9.
Thanks a lot for your help guys.
Julien.
Hi
First of all: read all the wiki section for BA (BlueAngel)
It's quite well explained there.
Your roms are indeed old.
Go to the wiki section and download newest rom update.
( I think that I-mate's update has ROM 1.40.00WWE with Radio 1.12.00 and ExtROM 1.40.176WWE )
Upgrading is very simple, when you follow wiki.
ExtROM is a portion of ROM that contains installation files for provider-specific applications and some hotfices (CAB files). ExtROM can be edited by user (cooking) to personalize your device best.
At your point I suggest using extROM from this update.
Thanks a lot Robal.
I had to check some other post, because my current ROM was in ENG. So I use some trick to use WWE Rom.
But now it is working great.
Julien.
i have the following on my device:
network: orange uk
operator ver:34.119.1.611
rom vers: 1.19.61.1 WWE
rom date: 11/25/08
radio: 1.09.25.14
proto: 52.49a.25.26U
have got my new hd for a few days, have been reading forum for a few weeks - to the extent that im now cross eyed and confused - i think - lol
Couldnt c this on the wiki or any where else on the forum, if ne 1 needs lemme know i will try to do a rom dump - Never done one but i am getting ready to start flashing but wanna backup this rom first for warranty purposes!
do i need to back up this rom or is it already on wiki - stupid q maybe?
This is the UK Orange ROM

Hello
I had the same Rom on my Touch HD from Orange.
There isn't an shipped version of the Rom, but in the Wiki exists an Dumped version. If not, I have the dumped version AND the four raw files (the dumped files).
But don't worry. For warranty issues you can choose the old Orange ROM (1.14), where the Link of the shipped version is one post over this .
Some people which sended their "1.19 ROM Orange HD" back for warranty got it back with the 1.14 ROM. Crazy...

thanx for reply ppl, so no one needs/ wants this new rom then?
the rapid share link is for rom 1.14!
Hi All, I have had a search and can't find the answer to my question. I am about to flash my HTC Touch HD to Dutty's new 6.5 R8 ROM and I wanted to make sure I can go back to my default incase I either don't like it (which I doubt after reading everyones posts) or the phone has to go back for warrenty.
I have found some original ROM's on Dutty's site but the version numbers don't look like they match. mine are as follows
I am on Orange and in the UK
Operator Version: 34.119.1.611
ROM Version: 1.19.61.1 WWE
ROM Date: 11/25/08
Radio Version: 1.09.25.14
Protocol Version: 52.49a.25.26U
The closest one I found on Dutty's site is BlackStone_HKCSL_WWE_1.19.831.0_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14 or RUU_BlackStone_Orange_UK_1.14.405.3_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14
If I restored either of these would I still be ok on the warrenty front? or is there away that I can extract my currently installed ROM and then restore it if needed?
Any help would be greatly recieved.
Try http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Ship_exe
Brilliant Thanks. There is a closer match there but still nothing with a complete match. If I send it back can they tell from the serial number what versions should be on there? or is there a particular version that is more important than the others? i.e. the ROM version?
there is a release of a newer rom than yours on the htc site
so i guess that if you had that rom installed and your hd needed to go back under warranty then you should be fine as it can be considered an official update by the manufacturer

Thanks, I didn't realise that HTC released ROM's for download. Thanks for both of the replies. Much appreciated.
As long as you have an official HTC upgrade rom on your device you will be fine for warranty
