Hi there I know this might seem like a bit of a noob Question, but I am a little nervous to proceed without advise from someone that knows a little more about this than me. I downloaded the WM6 file from HTC Club a while back but have been busy and I have finally gotten around to trying the flash, but when I run the app, it says it is going to "upgrade" my Rom from Version:5.4.405.1 to version:4.17.405.2. Now that seems like a downgrade to me, but like I said, I don't know everything... I have obviously checked my version in my settings menu and it is defiantly WM5...
If anyone could Shed some light on this it would me greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!
Don't worry about the version numbers. They could just be the build of that particular ROM. If you have a WM5 build 787.23 and a WM6 build that you're upgrading to of 201.01 which is newer? Anyway, you can always reload the stock rom and start all over again if it isn't what you want. Cheers.
Thanx man, I thought it might be something like that, I will try the rom then, it is the official one from HTC, so it should work... if it does then I know I have a safe rom I can use if I flash a cooked rom and don't like it.
Thank you again.

Does anyone know why I'm not able to see the phone settings on my MDA Vario?
I'm currently using the new T Mobile ROM 2.6 . I tried to reinstall it but its the same. Do you think is the new ROM version? I didn't have this problem using older versions
Please help!
i can't believe none of you guys who are sou posed to be great programmers do not know anything about my problem thanks for nothing
u can try to reflash your rom to see if there a problem with the rom. if you still have the same problem. You should try a different rom.
re
i have tried all that Roms available but still the same
you can jump off a building and i think you'll find your solution there......somewhere between your small intestine and the tip of your anus...be careful though your head might be in the way...so just push it aside.
Remember follow these directions carefully because if you won't then us "thankless no good for anything great programmers" won't be able to help you further...
But seriously.....what are you looking for exactly?
Hi all,
I just did a hard re-set on my phone, and it looks like it has cured the problem that i was having.
But my question is...do i have to update the ROM again? Or will it still be the updated version? I have checked and it says 1.93.405.
Thats the latest one right?
Thanks!
no u don't have to update it again...
about your rom being latest, i don't think so.
Is it really not the latest one?
By latest i mean the official one, im still a bit scared to try the cooked stuff!
I'm with you on this one!
... yes, that is the latest one released officially from HTC. Other users in this forum may have newer versions, but like you, I'm keeping to the official version for now. I'm certainly not having any of the issues people are discussing here, which makes me wonder... would they still be having these issues had they not upgraded their device with an unofficial ROM?
A hard reset on a PPC is like using a restore CD\DVD on your desktop computer. It will place the initial software back erasing all data.
So there is no need to update. Also, the latest build or number does not mean it's the best. So if you like your device just leave it as it is.. ..meanwhile read about other users experience about different ROM's this way you stay on the save side
Thanks for the replies.
I am having no problems at all with it now, its running really well, so think i am just going to leave it as it is for the moment!
I am trying to find information regarding the Rom that is on my HTC 8925.
When the phone boots up I do have a splash screen that says Dutty's Series.
I go into Settings>System>Device Information to find:
ROM version: Touch v6.1 WWE
ROM date: 02/19/08
Radio Version: 1.70.OliNex
Protocol version: 25.65.30.04h
What ROM do I have and where can I have find some information regarding this ROM? I have done some searches for Touch v6.1 WWE and Dutty v6.1 WWE, but to no avail.
Thank you in advance.
from the ROM date and the fact that u have a dutty's splash screen (which doesnt really accurately show what rom you are using) this would most likely be your rom.

Thank you for responding.
How do I update my radio?
I am pretty green, when it comes to modifying anything like this. Plus, I do not want to do anything that I could possibly render my phone useless for awhile, since I do not know what I am doing.
Thank you for your assistance.
Radio Upgrade
Do I really need to upgrade my radio?
I am frankly scared to death to do anything like this with my phone in the fear of bricking it.
Thank you.

Ill help you out. What you do is go into the radio thread and down load a different radio. I use 1.65.21.18 with Josh's new 6.5 super ram. When you download the file it will show up like a new rom. Flash it like you would a rom. and you are done. It really is trial and error to find the one that works best in your area. If you need any more help just let me know. I was the new guy not to long ago so I feel your pain. While in the radio thread read all the posts when you can and it will help.

If everything is working ok for you then not really but the right radio will help with batt life and signal. Are you having any issues at all?

I have only had the phone about a month, so I am just trying to get use to it. So, If I am having trouble with signal and/or battery, I may not know it as of yet.
Once again, I am very leary about flashing.
I was to My first time, but once you learn how and get used to it you will love trying out different roms

I know exactly how you feel Grey, but I thought sod it, best bet (someone correct me if i am wrong) hold down the camera key and hold in the soft reset button. If it comes up with the tricolour screen and it says something like SPL-1.0.OliPof. If that comes up the scary bit has been done and someones already put HardSPL on the phone. Chances are they have if you already have a custom ROM on it.
Now the hard bit will be is what ROM to put on it. Just read how to flash it but the easiest way is to do it from the SD card, and always flash the HTC stock ROM between custom ROMS, it helps u avoid any problems.
hello i am sort of a noob on flashing phones, i just got my T-MOBILE Touch Pro 2, im very pleased with it, i downloaded the EURO WM 6.5 and..3G wouldnt work..and my keyboard mapping was wrong, i switched back to TMO Stock ROM, now i am look for the best stable fast running fun ROM,
ive seen many impressive ROMS outhere, but again im a noob, iam looking for a ROM that supports TMO 3G as in CoralSprings FL i have full 3G signal, please i would really appriciate your help, thanks in advance..
It all depends on what you install and what you use your phone way. Best way to find out is to read ROM threads, and flash and enjoy. Just make sure you have HardSPL before you flash custom ROM.
Mate I'm a complete noob as well.....
You just posted the same thread two days ago.
People posted help there.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572868&highlight=tmobile+keyboard
now go here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550559&highlight=tmobile+keyboard
It has all the T-mobile keyboard fixes.
Now you can use any ROM you like.
Don't ask people for the "best" or "most stable" ROM. Cause nobody knows what "the best" or "most stable ROM" is. It will depend on your own personal taste and situation. Give 'em a try and find something you like.
Oh and finally. I started on the Touch Pro 2 a couple of days ago. Had never used a WINMO phone before, never flashed, applied a cab, or anything. Although I've managed to do all of the above with a bit or "searching" and reading of this forum. Use the "Search" tool, it's excellent. And only ask a question if you've searched and searched and searched and still can't find the answer.
Best of luck
HDSPL then flash them all and you will find one that fits for you.
ikno guys, i already hardspl, but idont want to keep flashing and flashing, but yea isee what you guys mean, im downloading the energy rom, looks pretty cool,and alot support for TMO users,

No problem, that's the way to start and that's how we all started.
ooo yeah i had 4gten bout that post, sorry,
so i also read that the 3G depends on ur radio, can u guys help with that? please,
I haven't heard about that because my 3G worked right out the box with stock radio.
But I have the latest HTC and it seems to be working real well. Also read positive posts about it so give it a try.

BTW, their is NO WAY to return back to the stock radio once you flashed a new radio. UNTIL someone finds a way to release it to us.
wel mine too, but when i had the custom rom, it didnt work.
Please find your own ROM, today's best might nott be tomorrows best, and you might not like what someone else likes.

You are still running a stock 6.0 rom, check the wiki to upgrade your phone to a stock 6.1 rom.
If it is custom roms that you want to delve into, then you can't do better than stylez, but you are going to have to unlock and Hardspl your phone first, before you can flash a custom rom.
Read and understand here first.

Thank you denco7. Yes i'm going to try the custom rom suggested. Just trying to work up the nerve to get started. I'm sure with the great people here in XDA that i will be just fine. I've modded an lg incite, but it was way simpler than the Tilt. o'well....i need to stop procrastinating and just do it!!
ok....just did it. now i have stylez black. now i'll spend the rest of the evening tweaking!!
i have another question already......how do i lock my phone now? thanks!

Take a good delve in thread there is a S2U2 not newest version but a stable release pimped you can also just use long press end to use default lock.
ok...i found it. thank you all for your patience and knowledge. my phone is now a lot cooler.
