Hi guys,
I've got couple of questions for you.
1. Is there a guide to flashing my Blackstone? One which noobs can understand. I'm a real nerd but I've never flashed something.
2. Can I backup my messages and contacts, and restore them after I've flashed my Blackstone?
Thanks in advance,
Bernd
stickies above tell you all you need to know

please help me...how flash my kaiser without lose my prgm.thanks...
you cant, you should backup your program files/my documents before flashing, and you should have cabs for all your programs ready.. also use "pimbackup" to backup your sms/contacts/calendar...
hes right updating a rom erases everything back to factory settings, i suggest you read about the process before posting aswell senior members and mods can close threads that are redundant, and some can be rather rude about the answers you want
here is a link to find out more about rom flashing
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser
and as for updating search the kaiser rom board to find out which is best for you
backup
with spb backup i am ok?thanks my friend...
im trying to help as many as i can, where i can
just be wary of senior members and mods being a bit rough with you, do a google search for the software you want or search this forum first theres a button on the top right of the forum to do this
if then you cant find what you want then ask here
or the higher ups will get mad
no prbs

Yes that is ok. I always sync my contacts to my PC just in case.
just back up your contacts with either AS or PIMbackup...then go search and read about UC-user customization and then when u flash it will save u a lot of work

All the ROMs are good so just pick one you like.
As for everything else, I came across this gem of a thread about a year ago. It still seems to work and it has EVERYTHING you need.
Awesome huh

Check the wiki...all your questions are already answered there
Edit : - got beaten to the punch
Please read the WIKI and all the stickies, they will guide you through the steps for installing hard SPL, unlocking and upgrading your device.
As for choosing which ROM to upgrade to, that will be personal choice for you. Again, read the threads on your selected ROMs and make your final choice from that. Or better yet, flash one and use it for a few days, then flash the other and see which one works best for you.
OMG Jimmy is around and I feel like this thread will be closed.
Jimmy hardly lets me have fun anymore. He's all serious now with his MOD rights.

Mskip has made a great guide on how to flash your ROM. It might not be for the Touch Pro2 but it will give you what you need to know on how to flash a ROM.
Mskip ROM Flashign Guide
Maybe this should be a sticky too
I asked mskip if he is making a guide for us or if he is not if I can modify his guide for Touch Pro2 but just follow the instructions in there for now.
Should help the noobs and help avoid "i can only get into bootloader , HELP" threads, good stuff.
I'll write a guide on how to flash OUR phone, don't worry.
Flashing your Raphael rom? Is this thread in the wrong section???

The proccess is similar. He said it wasn't for the Touch Pro 2, but it's close enough.

mskip is working on it and is almost done...just a heads up.
The only difference between flashing them is that you don't need Raphaelwrapper if using the RUU and that the IMG name is RHODIMG instead of RAPHIMG, right?
Thanks!
Just the comprehensive, all-inclusive guide I needed!! Just got a Vodafone branded TP2 yesterday and HardSPL is just out, couldn't get my timing any better me thinks. Thanks again for pointing out the guide for us clueless newbies.

Correct. You need the RUU file found in this forum. It is a sticky so it is up top.

Excuse me, am I blind. How much WM6.5 Roms are you seen here in this Xperia Tread. Do you have a X1 ?
Sounds like someone who does not apply hardSPL to his X1 before trying to flash a cooked rom...
"it doesn't work"
doesn't tell us how to help you!

Come on guys, a new user ....... let's try to give him a hand:
1. READ the fist xperia thread.
2. READ the second xperia thread.
3. etc etc
Basicaly: install hard spl (hard spl is the pretection against flashing these roms)
Find a rom that you like (most of them have few screenshots in the thread) and flash.
Enjoy. Or flash the next one.
Simple i guess ........ but remember ..... READ the threads. Will give you all the ideas you need.
G.
Wheal I have read them... but don't get it really, and yes, I have X1 for a long time... Since it is out there and wanted to update it. I tried to install from that guy as I said but it doesn't go...
I know You probably don't wanna spend your time helping me "noob" but please, how can I do it? I read everything but there is just so many things to do that I get lost... If any possibility that someono wants to help me out and put on my X1 I would like that very much.
The post just above yours details the procedure, and if you look at the stickies, the apps you need are there.
1) Install HardSPL
2) Flash ROM
3) Steal underpants
4) ???
5) Profit!

NO.
I can't find it. I searched for that "hardspl" and can't find it.
OK. I'd like to be tolerant and helpful but are you that stupid? WTF there are tonnes of stickies at the top of this forum. Here is the direct link to the HardSPL thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218
Read it, understand it and come back if it still doesn't work AFTER YOU HAVE READ IT.
There's even a video on youtube of the whole process somewhere.
Damn, so many threads lately of people asking to be spoonfed information that's CLEARLY AVAILABLE. Stop being lazy.

Ok, I'm sorry that it seems this way, but I really have read lots of things, I'm not stupid or lazy, I really read loads of posts but didn't find this one.
Ok, later I'll try. So basically what I need to do is run 1st this "X1_HardSPL_v1.zip" content and than after that is finished I have to run for example "WM65_ROM_X1i_23060_SB12_Sonblack" rom and that is it.
I'm asking so much questions so that I don't do harm to my device.
Thanx.
If you don`t understand the post from Hard-SPL and flashing roms, plz. let it be. You crash your famous X1. Stand by your WM6 original SE X1 Rom.

Yes you're right. You have to install the hard-spl first and after that you can flash an custom rom to your phone.

Installing a ROM

I don't know this ROM, but the way of installation is for all CustomRoms the same.
Look in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2400123
The same principle is valid for your ROM.
Works also if you are using TWRP instead of CWM.
If it is the first time that you try to install a custom Rom, you should be carefull, read the whole thread to learn about the procedure!
