Flashing a Jade from scratch with windows 6.5 - Touch 3G ROM Development

Hi all
OK well im probably not the only one new to the forum but i seem to be going blind trying to find all the answers to all my questions so i thought i would post some and see what happens.
I have an orange htc touch 3g on contract but HATE this os etc. (win 6.1). NOw from what i can gather there are some coolie builds for 6.5 out there or similar but i need t really really easy guild to flashing it.
Its got SPL 1.71 on it. so can someone link me to the right areas to go from where i am now with a turd os to an all sing all dancing 6.5 Please
Thanks
Jeff

Now just that wait for WM7

Schap's WM6 ROMs for Kaiser?

Dear Kaiser users,
After many of you aked me for making WM6 ROMs for Kaiser, I am now thinking about it but I wouldn't like to such a work if there is not a serious demand...
So I would like to ask you (especially former Hermes owners who used my ROMs) if you are really interested (or not!) in having a Kaiser version of my last ROMs (and eventually some multilanguages versions):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1696394&postcount=1
Yes! Definitely interested!
Schaps,
Not a former Hermes user (TyTN II is my first HTC unit) , but I've seen enough of what you've done elsewhere to clearly answer: YES, Please!!
Cheers,
Søren
Hell yea!
I've been flashing my old tytn 1 soooo many times and ive always ended up with your latest stable release, i love everything but the color but thats something i can live with or change myself.
to be honest i still havent flashed my tytn 2 due to knowing myself and how i get carried away my tytn 2 still feels "new" and im not sure if there is a swedish official rom to go back to in case of trouble that would result in sending my phone for warranty.
but then again... still browsing this forum atleast a couple of times a day i know it wont be long until i put it i hard-spl mode and flash myself untill insanity.
please shaps keep up your good work for the hermes and atleast through us at kaiser a few breadcrums every now and then - that would make atleast me happy
cheers
//jonte
I am a previous Schaps ROM user... & YES is the answer
Schaps..... we had some communications in the past, I even donated.. I would donate again when my means change very soon.... i just received my first Tilt from AT&T (HTC 8925). Looking forward to tweak this puppy up...
As I am a ROM junkie, I always appreciate and welcome a new ROM cooked by experts like yourself.
I know you have just released the 8525 Hermes 4.2.0 ROM...Do you have one for the Kaiser II ( HTC8925) yet? Please post as soon as possible.
Thanks for all the work.
We are very happy to hear that Schaps is in Kaiser team!!! And we surely say yes to a cooked ROM from Schaps!!!
Shaps definitely after tour breakthrough in the hermes community can't wait even from a small time cook as me. I would really love to test your roms. and also hope you can find a easy way around the xip porting for kaiser

Previous Hermes user. One more ROM for Kaiser? The more the merrier.
Maybe without the purple.
Was also a Hermes user and loved your roms so please bring on a Kaiser rom
Schaps - Was a huge fan of your roms with my hermes. Please set into the Kaiser kitchen for us!
Hehe, that's funny: I was about to write I loved everything ESPECIALLY the color!

YES please.
I have not yet got my hand on Kaiser or Cingular 8925 but it in mail and first thing that i want to do is Unlock it then flash with your ROM. Your ROM's are the best that I have ever used. Please continue good work.

dont hate the game hate the noobs

hi there people, dont hate me and apologies if this question either seems ignorant or whether its been answered before.
so here goes...
ive got a branded vodafone tp2, its sim unlocked so im using a Tmob UK sim inside and loving every minute, awesome fone.
now i can see there's a buzz about getting wm6.5 official ROM onto my device so im wondering a few things.
I went to the HTC web site and tried to download the official ROM but it mentioned it wasnt suitable for my device, ill put that down to it being branded/raped by Voda..?
what im wondering also is, if i could get the official unbranded wm6.5 ROM onto my unit (my mate has just upgraded his from HTC as it was unbranded at POS so will try n get him to upload onto my unit)would it work?
ill have to admit ive been a fan sice getting my first HTC fone (the Universal) years ago but have now realised that if u want a decent experience to next time go unbranded.
do you guys think ill have to wait for Vodas bastard son of a thousand maniacs ROM (Voda wm6.5) to be up on their site before i can have winmo 6.5 on my device and has anyone seen if its that God horrible red n white which i just cant stand.
im using manila 2.1 atm yto cover it up and have been pleased how it got rid of the Voda rubbish.
again apologies if ive asked some thing answered and thanks in advance for any help.
i am a toatl noob to "flashing" etc so any advice would be awesome.
id also like to give shouts out to all developers for keeping us all up to date and connected.
you guys are the unsung heros of win mo so please keep up the good work as im sure we all would agree, its greatly appreciated
with thanks graph1uk
Mate...you should do some reading at those sticky threads...
No one will answer those questions.
if u cant wait ur official 6.5 rom come out. Just do the hardspl and flash using 6.5 europe official rom. do more reading please. thanks.
I have a Vodafone TP2 too, and don't have any vodafone software on it anymore. All you need to do is flash with HSPL, then you can install any ROM you like from this forum, but seriously read the stickies. This one specifically:

Like others are saying, you just need to HSPL your phone and flash the hell outta it After the flash, you will have your new 6.5 ROM, without voda crap Good luck!
Ok.. If you are new to the flashing world... you must first understand a few things. A bit of reading around would definitely help you understand better.
- First you would have to Hard SPL your device. You can find our how to do that from this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550131. At the end of the 1st post you would have to download this file: Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3_185HSPL.zip
Once you do that, you are all set for the world of fantasy... Screw the official release of WM 6.5 release.. you have better than official release here at XDA. You can try the latest WM 6.5 and 6.5.1 ROMs cooked with Mannila Sense 2.1 and 2.5
So, Flash away dude... and Good luck.
The voda update is here : http://devicehelp.vodafone.co.uk/firmwaredevice.php?ModelID=384&e=0
As stated before, please use the stickies and the wiki for reference before starting a new thread.
All the answers are there somewhere .

New to Flasing Roms

Hi,
I've been reading through a few posts on the forums and am considering taking the plunge. One thing i just wanted to see if anyone could clear up for me is
1) Is any roms now using the RTM of windows mobile 6.5
2) I have a UK O2 Ignito which looks exactly like the HTC Diamond. As not sure is exactly flashing any roms for the HTC Diamond will this fail?
3) If there is roms compatable with the Ignito and is using the final RTM of 6.5 which roms are recommened and proceedures to do.
Thanks in advanced to any answers
MK
Read this...
All the answers to your questions regarding flashing are here.
As for WM6.5, they are still a little buggy for me at the moment. I'd wait a while until all the little issues are ironed out. Of course, if you don't mind the odd little bug here and there, try a few yourself.

7/10/10 Pegasus V3 6.5/6.5.1 21895/23557 ALL CDMA CARRIERS NEW!

Please see this thread:

Thanks!
Make please Rom with Titan and Manila!?
are the screenshots of diamond?? 200+ program mem!!!!!! :O
i think its tp
Regarding to the 6.1, Black Manila is not my favorite. Could you please change it by red or blue Manila in your coming Premium version? Thanks for your hard work. Basic rom is my prefer, only black manila.
confusing
why the screenshot shows that your device has so much ram,not diamond?
Warning!!
I Flash Pegasus Basic M3Dv2.1 6.1 v1 on my touch diamond, Phone crash after flash. Stuck at "smart mobility" screen.
Not sure what you guys are testing on, but this is for the CDMA version of the HTC Diamond
This is a CDMA rom but why did not you tell us before. You should write it very clear in your Thread TITLE. Please be professional.
It CLEARLY says SPRINT. If you don't know what Sprint is, or what CDMA carriers are, then you shouldn't be flashing your ROM in the the first place. Please be a little more intelligent next time and know what you are doing.

Not everyone can know what sprint is... It's also possible, that's a name for a ROM serie... like Benko's ROM, EnergyROM, and so on. The most ROM here are GSM, so you should write clearly, that your's is different....
this rom is for cdma , don´t flash it! HE SAID : This has been tested on the HTC Diamond (Sprint).
DON´T FLASH IT , OR YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DIAMOND
Exactly, yes, it cannot be said any more clearer. Thank you.
new version ROM up basic titanium 6.5.1
new pics up
Sprint Name - Be polite
I think that you must to know that you are posting roms tha everyone in the world can to download for example I´m from Brazil anda I did not know what sprint is. You really must be more polite and professional.

Hello, I downloaded the pegasus basic 6.1, assuming 6.5 and 6.5.1 were references to Window Mobile versions. I like it! Since updating to this ROM I can't seem to find the setting to allow an app to be completely closed when clicking the X in upper right corner. Can you help? Thanks.

I belive a better place for your rom is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=515
You are putting a lot of GSM Diamond users in DANGER!
Ask the moderator to move your thread!
Good luck.

DIAMOND 2 Nooblet Questions

Hi all firstly great forums, secondly i am a complete tard when it comes to technology so be gentle please..........
Ok i just recieved my Diamond 2 and i was wondering if you could help me with the basic upgrades i should get right away before i do anything with it and how to do those ie 6.5, ROM stuff etc bear in mind i havent a clue about these phones as it is my first new phone for along time.
Also which memory card should i buy for about £20...£35 i want an 8-16gb, do i need to get a micro or normal size ? a class 2, 4, 6 ?
The phone is from London and sim free if that helps.
So is there any upgrades that are a must or i should definately get before i start playing around with it.
Thanks in advance for any replies and for your time.
Peter
Peter, you better post this in the right forum, this is the Diamond (1) forum, and you have a Diamond 2, that's known here as Topaz.
btw...to upgrade your Topaz to WM6.5 i believe there is an official ROM released by HTC, i'm sure there's a link to that one in the Topaz ROM development forum; this ROM you can flash 'out of the box' cuz it's an official one.
However, if you want to upgrade to another, custom WM6.5. ROM you have to run HardSPL on the phone to be able to do that.
Start reading the Topaz ROM development forum (esp the stickies with very usefull info) and you'll figure it out i'm sure.
Good luck and congrats with your new phone...it's way faster then the Diamond 1, but not as beautiful
Thanks alot for pointing me in the right direction i was abit lost on the forums as to where to post.
Thanks again.
