Rom Upgrade Advice - Tombile Compact IV - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi All, really need some advice.
I have a T-Mobile Compact IV with a really old rom:
Rom Version: 1.37.110.3 WWE
Release Date: 06/20/08
Radio Version: 1.00.25.03
And I am wanting to upgrade to the latest HTC Rom as supplied by their website. I managed to download it (using a sieral code from a HTC Touch Diamond) and when I try and install it, it says Invalid Vendor ID.
I have downloaded and installed the HardSPL and flashed that on to the phone and when I start up in the Serial mode it says on the screen:
DIAM200 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) V11
PSOC-VICT STAGE_PVT v0x20
When I try and run the Rom update after that my screen goes black and after about 5 minutes of the upgrade still at 0% the computer says connection failed and tells me about recovery steps which taking the battery out and back in works and it all comes back on fine.
Can any best advice me on what to do next to get it to the HTC rom MY PHONE.
Thanks,
Max

Did u only try to flash the original HTC ROM?
You should try some custom roms; I'm using AZTOR's latest on my MDA Compact IV and I had no problems falshing it.
Btw. his ROMS are original HTC Roms with some changes. Try it

I might do, I am waiting for HTC to reply heopfully giving me the standard T-Mobile Rom I am playing around a bit I think I need a different radio version as that is what seems to be playing up with at the moment as I am getting:
1: Bad Signal
2: Hot Phone
3: Crackling/Fuzzing while on phone
I also get:
Distorted loud speaker
sometimes the graphics doesn't update straight away
and certain programs will not use the internet at all.

Hi Mar'Cel,
I have taken your advice and flashed my rom to the Axtor X Rom and I must say it worked first time, the sound quality is perfect the phone doesn't seem to be getting warm I have yet to check loud speaker and not sure about signal yet
HOWEVER!!!
My Active Sync still won't work over the internet to our exchange server. I have re-set it up several times and all the other phones including one I have just re-setup is working fine. The error on mine is:
Result:
ActiveSync cannot reach the server. Check that the server address and proxy server settings are correct.
0x80072F78
But all the other mobiles we have in the company are working perfectly. Anyone else had this?

How to find out my IPL/SPL

Hi guys I have a new HTC Wing phone which has some issues with the GSM radio, I was going to update the radio for my device to solve the problem but I see that it requires an SPL/IPL version equal or higher than 4
Unfortunately, the IPL/SPL version numbers are not shown when I boot this device, is there any other way to find out
Here is the info I see on the device.
ROM version 4.10.531.3 WWE
Rom date: 03/15/07
Radio version: 02.83.90
Protocol version: 4.1.13.37
ExtROM version: 4.10.531.103
One other thing I have is that I have editied the registry to be able to see the band settings, however, the band information info is blank
Thanks in advance
Also a new Wing user (got it last week), and found out my IPL/SPL yesterday
You will see IPL/SPL info in bootloader
How you get into bootloader you ask?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327046
Try the following links as well. Keep reading, as there's a "wealth" of information on this site. I don't claim I am an expert on Wing, but I've been "soaking" in this site the last few days, and I "think" I know what I want/need to do

Hope this help
From another new Wing fellow
hey pal, yeah today I figured out I would check with the bootloader option and I could see the IPL/SPL version, did the radio update to version 8.xxx which is supposed to be the one everybody is using but still can´t get signal inside my apartment, I dunno if it is a particular problem of this one I have or if it is a more general issue, maybe I will try a ROM update...
anyway, thanks again for the reply
Just flashed my wing to Open Touch 3.0 Biggy, which include a new radio: 03.07.90
If you hate TMo ROM, or wanna try something new, maybe you should look into it
I flashed it to Toich It V2 but nothing has changed regarding reception quality while a wizard I have has perfect reception, I will try to install a ruu rom image instead and see what happens, the rom i have now shows nothing under device information which is weird to say the least

HTC TYTN II Weird Behavior After Upgrade to 6.1

Hi Guys,
thanks for the good job you'all are doing. Will appreciate whatever help i can get to resolve this issue with my phone. I have the HTC TYTN II which i recently upgraded to WM 6.1 using the official ROM which i donwloaded from HTC website. Since then i have noticed that sometimes it seems my phone is dialing itself or a call is coming in. The funny part is though every other function is working i wont be able to answer this phone. It will seem to hang. Then after a while i will get the cprog.exe error. To be able to make phone calls i have to soft reset the phone. i have had to hard reset my phone twice already with no solution. Also googling has not been able to provide any answer too. I just sent an email to HTC Technical support now but with experience i doubt if i will get any useful response. So this is my last resort.
It is also pertinent to note here too that intermittently i do get the tmail.exe errors.
Hi,
I am having the same problem after the upgrade..frequently its becoming stoned! requiring restart many time during the day...which was not the case before...anybody has got any solution???
I love my TyTn II but not the 6.1 ..its not stable!

Azuka, who so ever upgraded to 6.1 from HTC experienced the same problem even i myself suffered the same. So your only solution is to downgrade to 6 but before doing that you must HardSPL your phone ...
Two words... bad flash.
Regardless of what you might hear about WM 6.1 being unstable/unusable, it's simple NOT TRUE. Head over to the Kaiser Wiki, read up on flashing HardSPL (really read), and then once you have HardSPL'd your phone, flash a different ROM.
But please do not make the mistake of asking for recommendations on which ROM to use. The ROM that works best for me probably will not work best for you, in terms of programs loaded and cosmetically.

Thanks for your reply. Your two words "Bad Flash" got me thinking. How could that be. I thought so too and had to re-download the file from htc website and re-installed.
About HardSPL'd your phone, from reading the wiki i now know what it is. But there is no instruction out there to HardSPL'd. Do i need to get the file and copy unto my phone or what?
thanks.
Head over to the Wiki, and under ROM Upgrading - Tools, I added an entry to HardSPL v3.xx. All the instructions needed are in that thread.

Thanks for your help for far. This is an update of where i am today and a few questions i need your help to answer:
I took my phone into the retialer where i bought and who serve as the service center for HTC here in Doha, Qatar. They re-installed the WM 6.1 OS and so far i dont have the issues i was having before. However i do experience momentary screen freezes which eases off after a few second. Right the device information is as follows:
ROM Version: 3.28.405.0 WWE
ROM date: 05/02/08
Radio Version: 1.65.17.56
Protocol Version: 25.83.40.02H
Going into the bootloader the i see the following information:
KAIS130
SPL-3.28.0000
CPLD-8
Which i believe confirms that the HardSPL is 3.28 - please correct me if i am wrong. Now my questions are as follows:
1. How do i resolve the momentary freezing?
2. Do i still need to do a HardSPL giving that mine is showing 3.28?
3. And your answer to do above is Yes which version do i need to do? 3.28 or 3.29 or even 3.56
Thank you once again.

I have the freezing issues too. Two things has helped me reduce the frequency (and improve general responsiveness of the device):
1. I've disabled the HTC task manager application - that helps a lot on responsiveness
2. Each time I soft reset the phone, I manually kill the mstli.exe process - that helps a lot on the freezing issues.
regards,
Spip
Just to share some experiences
So I have the TyTN II and I recently upgraded to the official HTC WM6.1.
I have none of these problems of screen freezing, unstable rom, etc etc etc...
However, I do suffer from occasional program error message and asks me quite a few times to send the report to microsoft.
But this only happens when I load certain third party softwares and then close them down.
I attribute this to compatibility issues with WM6.1...maybe I'm wrong. But that's what I think anyway.

You do not have HardSPL on your phone. You have SPL 3.28, which was flashed to your phone as part of the WM 6.1 upgrade. If you want to try out custom ROMs, you will still need to flash HardSPL 3.xx.
I recommend flashing HardSPL 3.56. It was ripped from an AT&T build, but seems to work great with all flavors of WM 6.1.
As for the freezing, it cannot be eliminated 100%. But with a good cooked ROM and the right HardSPL, you will rarely experience one.
I had this issue and it was just down to previous HardSPL being left at an early version (I think around 1.02) on the device and if you apply this latest HTC stock ROM update you get a bad flash and freezing especially in the threaded SMS app.
Install any HardSPL later than 3.00 then redo the ROM update and it should cure it.
Thanks guys. I just did the HardSPL 3.56 and re-installed the HTC official 6.1 ROM. So let's see how it goes.
Btw, HardSPL-ing is not as difficult as it seems though.
Right now the following is my configuration:
KAIS130
SPL-3.56.Hard

Just a quick update. After HardSPL-ing my phone it worked well for sometime then the tmail.exe error surfaced. I have only had the cprog.exe error - where a call comes in and i can not answer neither can i make another call until i soft reboot - has only happened once or twice. Apart from these the phone has been working well.
Anyway i just got a reply from my earlier mail to HTC and thought i should post if here for people's information. Apparently they are aware of these issues and working on them. Read for yourselves:
New Response From [ Maha Mamer (Qatar Support (Tech)) ]
Thank you for contacting HTC Corporation Middle East Support Dear Mr. Felix First of all we are very sorry for our late reply Please, if your problem still exist with this error message, you can try one of two options. 1- go to Start> Settings> System(tab)> error reporting> and disable the error reporting option. 2- If this did not solve your problem, then you might need to get back to WM6.0 until we finish our update for the new release of WM6.1 with the new modification for our web site.

Just an observation here:
After reading somewhere on these pages that the erratic behavior of TYTN II could be due to bluetooth adapter i decided to go some days without my Motorola S9 bluetooth ear piece i am yet to experience any of the issues i had before. Could the bluetooth software for WM 6.1 be the issue?

Did you ever resolve your momentary freezing issues? I have a new TYTN II that I upgraded to WM 6.1. I used hardspl 1.0 to do that but after reading numerous posts, I loaded HArdspl 3.28. After installing hardSPL 3.28, the 5 second freezes are less frequent but happen everyday.
I am not sure where to go from here? load another HSPL? Reload '3.28.405.0 (Radio 1.65.16.25) original HTC WWE (World Wide English) ' ROM?
As you know these pauses are very annoying.

I am looking for a solution. Not using Blue tooth to use a device that costs over 600.00 just doesn't make sense to me.
Is there a ROM hardSPL combination that will give me freeze-free performance or is this an HTC problem that is not solvable. I just can't believe that every Kaiser user that has upgraded to wm 6.1 has the same issue that I have with momentary freezes that last up to 5 seconds.
Is the solution another ROM, another Hspl, another phone? Who can help me resolve this issue? Is there a better place to post this?
Thank you
Freezes and locks.
Prior to my upgrading my AT&T Tilt to WM6.1 which I did today. I was experiancing LONG freezes, listening to music or just waiting for menus. I could not determine any specific software that was the cause. I tend to install a lot. Did a hard reset, didn't install the AT&T bloat, reinstalled my primary apps MS Voice Command 1.6 (a Must). Still same issues... Occationally could NOT answer calls. Hit the green button, or the answer option on screen. the onscreen 'answer' would flash, but I could not use the phone until a soft reset. LONG process when you are waiting for a call back.
AT&T sent me a new phone which I got and installed the NEW wm 6.1 before anything. Worked pretty well, but I had not made any calls or recieved any all day. I did listen to several hours of music on my Motorola S9 headset and made sure Audible Player would work. Two apps I use daily.
All seems well, except NOW I get the cprog.exe error. I decided to test my phone with a simple incoming call. Before I ended it, it went dead. Not sure what the HardSPL is yet. Will look into that. Just thought I'd let others know that the lag, AT&T seemed to think was a hardware issue so they replaced my Tilt.
Software installed; MS Voice Command 1.6, Live Search, Audible Player, TCPMP, FlashBundle, GPSToday. Pretty much it besides the AT&T bloat that came with the ROM. Good luck

Tytn Ii Rom Upgrade

Hi all,
I have TYTN II which was bought in duty free and it is not connected to any network.
ROM Version: 1.81.415.4 WWE
ROM Date: 10/29/07
Radio Version: 1.27.15.32
Protocol Version: 22.51.88.13H
Bootloader (TriColor) screen showing following:
KAIS130
SPL-1.93.0000

Please let me know if i can upgrade my rom to the latest one HTC TyTN II-RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_3.28.405.0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.17.56_Ship.exe
which i downloaded directly from the HTC but without previously upgrading with HardSPL 1?
Thanks
Yes but why
You don't need to install hardSPL to run the HTC official upgrades from an existing official HTC installation. It's a very straightforward process but be aware many people have found the HTC official TyTN II Windows Mobile 6.1 upgraded ROM to offer deteriorated GPS performance with times to get a satellite lock taking significantly longer. I also found the latest WM 6.1 ROM and Radio combination (what you're looking at upgrading to) to contain quite a few bugs that weren't even in the original WM 6.0 ROM. If you upgrade and don't like it, it's not a straightforward process to put it back again (the HTC repair centre reverted my TyTN II) so make sure it's what you really want.
***Edit*** If your new ROM is for a different region eg Europe vs South East Asia, the ROM *may not be accepted either (I've never tried but I know flashing different languages is a definite nono the 'official' way). If the HTC Website offered up this ROM for your serial no, it should flash through ok.
Thank you for prompt answer Flying Kiwi ,
I have to try upgrading ROM to the latest one in order to try fixing problem i am facing described in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=434884
Now, is it worth trying to upgrade to the latest ROM or my problem is of hardware nature?

ROM flashing to fix such an issue not advisable

I've replied to that thread but I strongly suggest you don't go down the path of flashing a new ROM (even if you could) to fix a problem present in the device with an HTC official setup like this. It's time to call HTC and (possibly) send it off for Warranty investigation if you have correctly prepared the desktop PCs first. I'm sure that HTC wouldn't release a ROM which had issues that significant on a device so I'm sure the problem is not with the ROM itself.

Tmobile Compact iv Rom Upgrade

Hi folks, I have just got a T-Mobile Compact iv after handling a few HTC Touch Diamonds through my company and loving it in comparison with my old Vario 2 (HTC TyTN 1)
As I am on Contract with T-Mobile I have gone for the Compact iv version as it was free to me however Once receiving it I noticed the rom including the TouchFlow is a really really old version compared to what's on the Touch Dimaonds.
I have spoken to T-Mobile and they told me they can't supply a newer version but they have given me full permission to use the one on the HTC Website for the Touch Dimaond and if anything was to go wrong they will still support me.
I have a serial from one of the Diamonds we have here in the company in order to download the rom for my compact but I thought I would check here first as HTC refuse to give me any information as its a T-Mobile branded phone that the rom for the Touch Dimaond is perfectly fine for the UK Compact iv?
Thanks in advance for any information.

Max

A Touch Diamond ROM will work fine on a Compact IV. It´s a T-Mobile branded HTC Touch Diamond with a different cover. Hardware specs are all the same. So there's no reason why it wouldn't work. Just know what you're doing when flashing it. It could go wrong.
Thanks for the reply. I have flashed a few phones including HTC's and Nokias so I am not worried about flashing it, its part of my job being in IT I just wanted to ensure that the rom would work correctly encase there were any slight differences in hardware but I have got an HTC Branded Serial code so I will go ahead and download the rom upgrade

Rom's could be found here to. They are all orignal roms.
See I would do that but as T-Mobile would normally no longer support you if you change roms and they have told me they will but as long as its downloaded from the HTC website I think I am going to be safe this time.
I wouldn't mind trying the 6.5 roms I am very intrested but I think I will wait until I have a spare phone

HELP!! Won't run
:-( I tried to use the rom update but it says invalid Vendor ID then restarts my phone. It actually checking and finding I am running T-Mobile. Is there anyway around that?
Regards,
Max
Max, have a read of the wiki and you'll see there are a few things you need to do prior to flashing a new one. The most important one is installing HardSPL - this removes the invalid vendor id probs. Like I say, read the wiki and all will be clear.... if it isn't clear - don't risk it!

Follow this tutorial and it should work. You could take a look here to.
Hi, I had just read all the instructions downloaded and installed the HardSPL from the second link you provided and Installed the orginal version (not the latest on that link as its what it said to try first)
I flashed it ok came back on but the screen is jurky and very slow when it finally finished coming back on it went straight to the customization screen which is normal for a flash but took forever (alot longer than I have seen before) once complete I then re-connected it back up and went to run the HTC Rom upgrade and still says invalid Vendor ID.
Am I undesrtanding this wrong and I need to copy certain files out of the HTC Upgrade and use them along side the files I downloaded with the HardSPL and use a mixture of files to get it working.
Regards.

Did you successfuly flash the HardSPL into your device? You can check this by doing this:
To confirm is Hard-SPL is on your device, manually enter Bootloader by pressing the Volume Down and performing a soft reset at the same time. If successful you will see the tri-colour screen and the following will be displayed
Hard SPL 1.40.Olinex
DIAM100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
I've checked what mine said, and this is what I've got back.
DIAM200 64M
SPL-1.93.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
So I guess you need a different HardSPL. Can someone confirm this for me? Checked my own MDA Compact IV map on my laptop and saw to files that I've used for flashing the HardSPL. Used Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex.zip and RUU_Signed_1_93OliNex_HSPL_UnsignedEdition.zip. Needed to overwrite RUU_Signed.nbh in the map for Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex with the one out of the map from RUU_Signed_1_93OliNex_HSPL_UnsignedEdition. This worked for me then. Added the files for you. So maybe this works for you.
I get:
DIAM200 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
Have I done it with the wrong version now then?
I have tried using the files you have supplied and that worked as all the other flash things fail now so let me give it a go now that I have completed with your files.

I guess it had to work. Don't understand why it didn't. Because the HardSPL flash worked for you I don't understand why you stil had the invalid Vendor ID message. I hope my version will work for you.
Well after I did your flash and it finally came back on and finished the customization, the TouchFlo no longer appeared, just got a blank home screen and stayed like that. I have started the HTC Rom upgrade and it is actually flashing this time,
at 19% as I am writing this.
So I will post my results when it has finished.
Thanks,

I really don't have a clue. So the phone is working now with a original HTC Touch Diamond ROM? Very strange that it gave problems. When I flashed a phone (MDA Touch) for the first time it worked for me. When I flashed my MDA Compact IV I didn't have any problems.
Right,
I didn't use the HTC Rom as the last flash it was the one listed a few posts back and it reports:
Rom: 2.03.405.2 WWE
Radio: 1.09.25.23
However I have the following problems and I am not sure they are related:
1: Sometimes on call its crackling
2: Loud speaker is awful and very distorted
3: Internet not working on all programs (just phoned t-mobile and requested internet settings to be resent see if that works)
4: My hang up button doesn't seem to be working once the screen has gone off.
5: Signal seems to be very week.
Any ideas anyone?
Regards,
Max
Ok I have just spoken to T-mobile and they reckon if I phone HTC they will supply me back with the T-mobile Rom.
But until then as they are shut I might experiment with further flashes to see if I can get it working better because I do want the latest software runs so much smoother but the problems I am currently having I can't live with.
Max.
Ok, hmm I have in theory 'downgraded' the rom now on version
1.93.405.1 WWE downloaded directly from the HTC website radio version 1.00.25.05 and I still have the same problems:
crackling or fuzzing on calls,
the loudspeaker is a bit better quality but still a bit distorted (even at lowest volume)
internet works but for some reason, activesync wont work with our exchange server, msn mess doesnt work, you tube app.
still feels quite warm but thats prob all the flashing I am doing.
The latest HTC rom from their website still gets to 100% then fails and leaves no os on my phone just the bootloader.
One problem fixed the hang up key now works fine.
So I guess its just experimenting with the radio now and get a better signal.

Can't make phone call or recive it after upgrade ROM

Hello to all,
I have big problem with my BA GSM... I have done a lot of research but I can't solve my problem...
I have upgraded my BA (SPV M2000 ORANGE UK) from win 2003 SE to Win 6.1, Win 6.5 Win 5... But in all ROM versions I don't have a possibility to make or receive call... Phone is on automatic search for network and always founds my home network, but when I'm supposed to receive a call, network is going down (just loose it). When I want to make call same thing happens. When I switch to manual searching for network I get this message: "Cannot read settings from the network. Try viewing settings later, or disconnect data connection and try again"
I have tried to change radio ROM to every version you have on forum (right now I am on last 1.15), but still same problem.
When I was on the win 2003 SE, I have to use unlocker to make GSM working and that is working just fine... But when I upgrade to any other version of ROM or radio ROM, GSM doesn't function like it should...
Device information for my BA:
Operatior Version: wm 6.1 ppc Pho...
ROM version: Black Skin HT4...
ROM date: 08/08/08
Radio version: 1.15.00
Protocol version: 1337.45
ExtROM version: 1337.45
ExtROM version: Black Kernel
Model no: PH20B
Many thanks in front for any idea
Try going back to the original ROM or reflashing you current one. I had a similar problem where my sim was not inserted completly and would keep dropping in and out.
Thanks for respond I already tried to change sim card, but same thing happened... I don't know where I can found the original ROM for my SPV M2000 orange UK to try to fix my GSM... Does anybody now where I can found the original ROM for my baby ?
Here are 2 places for the original ROMs, also with original radio ROM.

Thank you for help, I restored phone to shipped ROM RUU_v2.5_OrangeUK_v5.40.1.179.ship and everything works fine... I have don't have any problems..
Is that mean that now I can't upgrade my windows to any other windows for my phone, or I should try again with some differed ROM...do you have any idea what is best ROM for my BA ?
Working Device information:
Operator version: 5.40.1.179
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radio version: 1.06.02
Protocol version: 1337.38
ExtROM version: 1.40.179 WWE
You should be able to upgrade to other ROMs, I am not to sure why you had the problem with so many different ROMs. I use xplode's R7.1 WM6.5 ROM, but there are other to use. swampy395 also has a pretty good 6.5 ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482997
also make sure to remove the sd card AND the sim card from the device before upgrading and have the battery charged 100%, that should do the trick
please delete
Unfortunately its impossible to change ROM...I tried every Xplode ROM from ver 5 to 6.5, and also I tried swampy395 ROM... Always the same problem remains - GSM drop after I try to call or receive phone call, and after that, no SERVICE at all... I switched to every radio ROM from 1.00.00 - 1.15
I think I'm doing everything ok:
1) removed SIM card & memory card and confirmed that battery is 100% full
2) Entered bootloader and start MaUpgradeUt_noID
3) After upgrade is finished, I have done hard reset and entered in boot menu then do NO YES YES
4) After system is normally booted, I inserted SIM card, switched phone ON and reset it after that, because radio ROM need to boot also
And that's the way I have done upgrade
wow, that's a tough one.
question: i saw, the shipped rom you used, was orange uk, is your phone actually a british orange branded one, or was that just a test shipped rom?
have you ever, in wm2003 or wm6 tried running xda unlock? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=240784 to get a sim unlock or just for fun?
and let me just throw one more thing in the discussion, the newer roms seem to support newer sim cards that wouldn't have worked with wm2003, maybe that is true the other way around as well, maybe your sim card is too old to work in "your new phone". happened to me once with another phone. contacted my operator and they sent me a new sim card, with the same number. a copy of my old card, just on the new ones.
have you ever tried it with another sim card?
wow, that was all i can come up with, your problem is really complicated and you already tried so much yourself, there is hardly anything to suggest anymore
Chef Tony my friend,
I have to unlock my phone when I receive it from UK (ORANGE UK is phone for sure) I do unlock with xdadev_all_unlock-v1.6_138.exe and its successful. I do unlock again for many times with new ROMs but nothing happened. I also try 4 different SIM card and there is no change... I will contact my network operator to see what they think...
Many thanks for helping me

And after i upgrade the rom my youtube player doenst work!
please make sure, you tested all the things suggested before. plus after posting three posts in a row, i would have expected a little more information, like rom version, country, carrier, radio version and so on. there is nothing new to say, if we have to guess everything.
about youtube, well, that depends on what rom you are using, you might even be able to just go on the site in your browser, of if you want a faster and more reliable solution, try -=this=-
Im still on wm2003... there is no solution for me
