You can only install ROMs made for your device. You can flash HTC Rhodium ROMs on your Tilt2 and vice versa because they're both Rhodiums with compatible hardware. However, you can't flash blackstone/Kaiser/Athena/Diamond2 etc. ROMs because if you actually manage to flash them, you'll probably brick or at least f**k up your device pretty badly.
However, you can flash radios from the Diamond2 (not any others like the Blackstone, Kaiser, etc.) if you're security unlocked using the Rhodium Security/CID/SIM unlocker from this forum.

Thanks a lot, that cleared up everything.

What do different ROM's do?
Tom
Different ROM's can do a million different things.
It all depends on what the creator put in them. Dutty's ROM is probably the most popular at the minute, because it contains all the software people are after.
Remember, a ROM is basically the OS with a collection of Software in it. In Dutty's case, it's also got a number of registry tweaks which improve performance.

There's now "best" ROM to install. Each ROM has their advantages based on what the person making it wants. Dutty's ROMs are pretty good - he has lite ROMs and full blown ROMs and ROMs with the touchflo/cube. There are other ROMs : Alex's, Quentin, CUSTEL, etc.
Read about each ROM to see if they include what you want and try it out. You will have to make the decision on which ROM is best for you. If you want to make your own try using Alex's ROM Kitchen (link in my sig).
Good luck.

Roms and Radio

Starting of with that I'm a Newbie to these Roms and radio will probably get alot of posts with comments like "did you try the search bar, ..". But i'm giving it a go this way
my rom now is 1.56.00.00 and radio 1.27.12.11 - quite old yeah ? Anyway its a NL ( belgian ) radio i presume.
What can i do best to get my tytnt updated to wm 6.1 with a latest radio for my needs.
Does it matter wich rom i take ? is it regio-bounded ? if yes which newest radio file is available for dutch-belgian people ?
2ndly i heard that i need to unlock my phone first before i can flash this new rom on to it. do i lose my warranty on this tytnt then ? or can i backup the system and reinstall it later back if it has to go back for reparation in warranty?
remember im totaly new to this and it would be friendly if someone could give me a descent answer. Thanks
I would also be interested in this, i have HardSPL'd and managed to flash a HTC Asian WM6 ROM + latest Radio, but after 4 hours of reading these forums, cannot find a answer as to what i need to do to get to WM6.1. is it now just a case of flashing a 6.1 ROM?
Cheers,
Check the ROM development forum, there are several ROMs posted there.
You first need to unlock your phone, as it comes it wil not let you flash any ROM
To get Windows Mobile 6.1, just flash any of the many available ROMs, some of them are HTC official ones. The radio depends on the ROM, but basically they are divided between 1.64 or older radios, and 1.65 newer radios.

Yours is new, but it's a WM6 radio
Recent WM 6.1 radios are 1.58.XX.XX, 1.64.XX.XX. or 1.65.XX.XX
Check official HTC and AT&T shipped ROMS here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_ROMs
Or try any of the cooked ROMS, they come with a lot of stuff preinstalled and different looks.
cheers trying NoThrills WM 6.1 V3 ROM atm, simplicity first
please read kaiser wiki ... its in english
a rom is a rom. As long as it is for your phone it's all the same. You flash the 6.0 the same as the 6.1..

Original HTC TouchPRO2 ROM

Hey guys, where could I find the latest ROM version for HTC TouchPRO 2 (Rhodium 300) shipped from HTC? I have a Tilt2 from AT&T, is it posible to run this ROM in this phone?
Thanks in advance ...
There are threads on official ROMs here, as well as the "cooked" ROMs. Also check the Wiki, at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Rhodium/Shipped_Roms
If you install HardSPL, then you can install other official GSM ROMs as well as those official ones specifically designed for your model/carrier/branding.

If he's got a Tilt2, then I don't think the official HTC site will let him download an official HTC ROM, because those are designed for HTC-branded phones.
you can download it here http://www.htc.com/sea/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=250&act=sd&cat=all it will ask for your serial # to download.
There is a problem ...
The problem is that my phone serial number doesn't let me download the ROM, I'm not sure if it's possible to run a ROM from a HTC branded Rhodium 300 on a AT&T Tilt 2, even though they're the same device, and where can I download the ROM without a serial number, because I've been reading the Wiki and there is no post for that device (RHOD300).
Thanks you guys for your answers.

If you have HardSPL, then *any* official *GSM* ROM will work on your device (though you may need to install a cab to map the keyboard). So RHOD100/200/300 ROMs will all work on the Tilt 2. There are links to places to get official ROMs on this forum, try a search.
Did the RHOD100 ROM work for you?
I haven't tried ...
I've been around the Wiki but there's no RHOD300 ROM, and I don't want to try the RHOD100 one because is not the same device, time ago I had trouble doing that with my Kaiser, if anyone knows about a link to a RHOD300 ROM (HTC) it would be much appreciated.
I heard something about an update from Verizon for TouchPRO2 users, hopefully there's one from AT&T in his way ...

Don't count on ATT doing any update. You can run any gsm rhodium rom as long as you have hard spl.

All the roms are on there.
Thanks!!!
That's what i'm talking about, i'm gonna give it a try ... thanks bro!!!

Just to let you know (and anyone else who is interested), I flashed the RHOD100 ROM on my AT&T branded Tilt 2, and it works perfectly. You can download the ROM here: http://rapidshare.com/files/2924648...Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.17_Signed_Ship.exe.html
It's the OEM unbranded Touch Pro 2 ROM, like I said, no problems what-so-ever with my Tilt 2, I've been using it for a good 2 days now. I wanted the exact same thing you did, and trust me, I'm happy with it! Good luck
hi
im in the same boat as you. do u need to install cab to re-map the at&t keyboard?
cheers

Yes, if you flash a generic HTC ROM, then you will need a cab to map your non-generic (i.e. AT&T) keyboard.

Rhodium - stock ROM with TF3D2.1

In your opinion, between the three types of ROM, which one is more stable? Which one is better? I'm using the Sense 2.1 and it has a couple of bugs with the music tab, and some other that i don't remember right now, but i want to know what to use in order to avoid this little bugs.
To be honest, they all suck. But if you work on them with brain, all of them can be great. I suggest that you start with the Rhodium S.
Thanks for the advice ...
Yesterday I flashed the Rhodium_S2_HTC_Europe_2.07.401.1_Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.91 ROM on my phone and i'm lovin' it, it was a good choice, the new Sense 2.5 has some improvements that make the Tilt2 an awesome phone, that's what i think ...
sorry to dig up an old thread, I have a stock tilt 2 (at&t) that has not had the hard spl done to it and wanted to know if I use Rhodium_S2_HTC_Europe_2.07.401.1_Radio_Rhodium_4.4 9.25.91 would I have to hardspl it or no because its an htc release?

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
http://www.xda-roms.com/
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).

[Q] Flashing Xperia X1

Hi all.
I have Xperia X1. I have flashed windows mobile 6.5 on my xperia with hardspl and my coustom rom.For example i whant flash htc diamond or htc aria or any pocket pc.Can i use with same hardspl and rom with which i was flashed my xperia or no.Please ask me all about pocket pc flashing.
you can't flash ROMs from other devices to the X1, they have different drivers etc. It won't work, maybe you will brick your phone. In one word: No it doesn't work!
ONLY X1 ROMs on the X1

But i whant WM 6.5 ROM, which will work in any pocket pc, from where i can get that rom.And one question, i have 2 HardSPL for xperia x1
1. 0.72 OliNex
2. 0.78 OliNex
Which are difference in these 2 SPLs, i dont understand.I installed my rom under 0.72 OliNex , working good like under 0.78 OliNex.
And can i use same hardspls for flashing different pocket pc, or any pocket pc have her hardspl.
0.78 is the newest version. Use this version.
You can now choose every ROM in the XPERIA X1 Rom Section.
You can flash your X1 by using the SD-Method or the normal one.
There is everything explained.
Hope I helped you.

Yes, i know that 0.78 is newest version, but what are difference, please explain me all about SPL.And i have downloaded new ROM and i like it, but processor working 100-120 MB, very high, but when i flash different ROM procc. working 70-80, what are problem that procc. working 100-120 MB (More than 50%).
I don't know the difference between 0.72 and 0.78 but there will be a reason why they updated this version. The processor load is depending on the different roms. For example the Energy Rom, needs more battery than Dynamics odr x826 do. Now it's up to you which version you prefer. Roms with HTC Sense (Manilla) need more RAM than clean Roms

OK my friend, thanks very much for help.Please send me your Email adress for questions for faster contact.Thanks again very much.
you can send me a PM if you have problems, but now it's your turn to find your favourite ROM.
I can tell you that I prefer x826 rom but now I am thinking to switch to Dynamics. I had Energy rom but that needs to much batterie.

Yes, I have a X1
