New rom for HTC diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I know that i may sound like a noob to you guys
But i just got my first ppc (the HTC diamond touch) with a dutch (i am) rom installed.
now i've tried to get the new rom from HTC but they say my ppc is not compatible.
What i like to know is, if i get a new rom and flash it do i need a new WM 6.1
or is that in the rom or does it install ( like a backup on the phone)
If it is the last option, where can i get a "clean WM6.1"
If this question has been asked before then i'm sorry i probably didn't see it
Sincerely yours
Harry

Try this S/N on HTC :

Why would you look like a noob to us? Just because you've just got your first PPC? Everybody has to start somewhere.
First question I've got is, do you own a real Touch Diamond or do you own the T-Mobile MDA Compact IV? If you own a Diamond touch you've should be able to flash the latest Dutch rom without problems. If you own a MDA Compact IV you've need to flash a hard-SPL into the phone otherwise you can't flash original Touch Diamond roms.
You can use this S/N for downloading the original Touch Diamond rom from the HTC homepage.
To upgrade to Hard-SPL you can follow this tutorial. Only do this when you know what your doing and if you understand the risks.

Another one here also. So how about a SN for a Sprint US Version?
I did search and all i found were the Two Dutch SN's for the EUR Version on HTC's Site.
Thanks,

Hello Iceman67,
I have made it !
Go to XDA-Wiki download Rom eng (i have taken RUU_Trinity_HTC_WWE_1_1_.23.405.2_103_6275_1.38.00.11_108_GPS.exe as i guess it is the good one), download also your original rom (in case you need to fall back) plus a small app SSPL-TRIN to trick the device.
It is quit simple but it could not work at first time.
Here it works only at the second time... but it it work

Hi Yonixxx
The ROM in WWE gave me error 294 Invalid Vendor ID and the SSPL-TRIN I don't know how to use it, can you tell me how to do that?
thank
Put the SSPL-TRIN app on your phone, run it, then run the RUU.

Hi Plastriq
Can I put it in any folder or there is a specific folder to put it? When you said run it you talking about the SSPL, because this program doesn't run and I don't know why.
Thanks
I have made it and works good.
Thanks

Dopod Touch Diamond (HTC touch Diamond) switching from chinese to english

Hi All,
i am new here, i made a mistake and bought a Dopod Touch diamond in China (HTC Touch Diamond) but i am not able to read or write in chinese, is there any possibility to flash the rom to have english SW, where i can get the rom soft, but i would still need the chinese language support for the english chinese dictionare which is already installed
I know these are a lot of questions,
Thank's a lot for helping
Rostei

As for Chinese support, I find CE-Star really good.
In short, try to install HardSPL. That way you can flash your ROM with minimal chance to turn it to a brick or flashing halt in midway.
Then, you go to Diamond ROM section and look for a good ROM to flash (either a "cooked" (modified) ROM from our fellow diamondier or an official ROM from HTC. All are available from the forum). Since the diamond is new to you, you don't quite need to backup anything. Scary at the first try but you will be hooked onto it and keep flashing different ROMs once you get the hang of it.

What do I need to flash

Yehys, I already hear people saying "search the forum" and "oh... why does nobody read"
but I actually used to have dutty's rom for my TyTN II, but after a repair for my keyboard, they flashed the original rom back again...
so now I'm searching the forums, found the stuff I need again (I guess)
now I wonder, is this the lastest rom of dutty: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=388947
since dutty doesnt seem to have any kaiser roms available on his own site anymore, and I couldn't flash the diamond or the touch hd versions...
What if I want to flash diamond or touch hd roms, how do I get these on? change the device id or something?
Any recommendations?
thanks for any answers
and a happy new year

First port of call should always be the XDA-Wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_Cooked_ROMs you will see all of dutty's ROMs and can check when posted via thread date & also find all the relevant info, you do not want to flash a ROM that is not specifically for your device.
Link to flashing your first ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433835 worth reading again.
As an experienced flasher you should know that flashing a Rom intended for another device will most definately brick your Kaiser.
Closing this thread because it serves no purpose.

Changing Dutch rom to English

Is there a way to do this? I bought my HTC Touch Pro 2 in The Netherlands but my Dutch isn't that great and I get lost in my phone a lot... Does anyone know if there's a way to change the ROM from one language to another? Thanks.
Flash HSPL so you can flash any rom you want... like the stock WWE version, or any custom rom found on this forum
This voids all warranty i believe, is there a way to put it back to the way I bought it, incase i need to send it in?
You can re-flash your TP2 with the original rom (i did it).
What kind of backup tool will I need to use on my original ROM before I start? I'm seeing instructions for the Magician etc but not the Pro2, is it model specific?
Please search before starting new threads, both of these are very common questions and have been answered on the forum and the wiki many times.
Thanks

Downgrade from WM 6.5 to old WM 6.1 (original)???

Hello!
I have a huge problem. I've had some problems with the battery on my HTC TP2 and in service they changed it. The problem is that they made an update to the software to what they call it is the last version: WM 6.5 with HTC Sense. I didn't ask for this and since it was a hardware problem I don't know what happend.
I asked them if they can downgrade to WM 6.1 like it was in the original phone and they said they couldn't do that.
I was wondering if I can get any help here?! Is there a way to find the original WM 6.1 from HTC? They don't have a version for HTC TP2 on their site ... So, how could I solve this problem?
I hate WM 6.5 with Sense because it moves really SLOW! Yes, it has many interesting things but there are a lot of badly made things . This is why I want to erase it from my phone.
Regards,
Laurentiu

Yes the 6.1 stock roms are there too
cheers
Thank you!
And that is the original ROM??? From HTC? Released especially for this phone???
Well not all off them on that page!
But the ones that start with "RUU_Rhodium_HTC_" are the official ones released for the rhodium (HTC Touch Pro 2) by HTC.
You just need to pick your language or the world wide english(WWE) variant.
In my case i am from the netherlands and would have to choose: RUU_Rhodium_HTC_NLD_1.19.404.1_Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.27_Signed_Ship.exe
Cheers
ps. in my signature is one of the best wm 6.1 roms i have ever stumbled upon. If you are not persistant in keeping your phone "official" HTC, i can really recommend that one. Loads of RAM very stable. Beats the stock rom in every way. But you would have to flash your htc touch pro 2 with a non official rom. (check it out at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618063)
Bear in mind that if your phone doesn't have HardSPL, you won't be able to flash most of the official ROMs (there are loads of them), you'll only be able to flash official ROMs designed for your specific model/branding of phone. e.g. I have a Vodafone UK-branded TP2, so without HardSPL, I can only flash Vodafone UK official ROMs, I can't even flash a generic HTC official ROM.
With HardSPL you can flash any ROM you like for your phone (GSM Rhodium), official or "cooked" (custom).

Since i have the "luxury" of an unbranded rhodium, i never had to think about that, but your absolutely right! Sure hope TS has an unbranded model so the choices are not too limited
hi there:
I have the HTC TP2 for Tmobile and I want to go back to wm6.1. there are two versions:
RUU_Rhodium_TMOUS_1.04.531.0_Radio_Rhodium_3.43.25.13_Signed_Test.exe
and
RUU_Rhodium_TMOUS_1.12.531.2_Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.17_Signed_Test.exe
which one should I pick?
TIA
