Even with HSPL or USPL you can not flash a ROM which is made for a different device! It does not matter whether it is factory made or cooked. Even if you can flash it, that can damage your phone!
The ROMs on this thread are only for HD. They are "cooked", therefore those ROMs have a lot of components actually taken from HD2 and they look and behave exactly like HD2, but the cooks have composed and tweaked them to work on HD. Maybe slightly slower then on HD2, but they are flashable and they work good on a HD phone.
That is the purpose of cooking. It takes a lot of work to extract the important ROM components from HD2 or Topaz, make them work on HD and then compose a new ROM that looks and feels like HD2 and which still can be flashed on HD.
A ROM made for HD2, original or taken from HD2 subforum will not work on HD or any other phone.
You can chose original or cooked, but always take only ROM which is made (factory made or cooked) specially for your model.
Each HTC model has its own subforum here on xda and the ROMs on that subforum are cooked for it. There is also xda Wiki for each model.
You are right about HSPL and USPL.
SPL on your phone does not allow you to flash any ROM made for another region (even if it is factory original ) or cooked ROM.
With USPL you can fool it to let you do so, but SPL remains the same, original as it was, you need to fool it again each time you want to flash.
With HSPL, you replace SPL with a slightly tweaked version which will always allow you to flash whatever you want.
There is way back from HSPL to the original SPL if you wish so, the instructions are in the sticky topics.

ok for that
what hspl i need for yours rom ii i put on my hd is it 1.56 olinex and i can put any rom i wish on this
site for HD is that corectly
you have>
[Device: Touch HD

I have HTC HD with
SPL-1.56.OliNex
(when i press volume down key and press start button a three color screen appears and that is shown: SPL-1.56.OliNex )
I used HSPL.
I have installed this OliNex SPL long ago and flashed more than twenty ROMs until I settled for Topix 3.0.2 .
Just read "Dummys guide to flashing" carefully.
The ROM I use is old, there are newer ones on Topix 3.5.2 thread. You should read the changelog and users reports on that topic as well before you flash.
There are also many other good ROMs on this thread.

I think that the best idea is install new/cooked ROM from microSD card. You have to change name's ROM to BLACIMG.nbh, copy to Storage Card, switch off HD, press and keep Volume Down bottom and press for a while Power bottom. Rest you should do according to on LCD instructions. Internal downloader checkes is the ROM is correct.

Orange Branded HD - Upgrade ROM

Hi Guys
Ive done a search but cant find anything specific so im starting a a new thread.
I have a Touch HD which I got through Orange UK.
Rom version sis: 1.19.61.1 WWE
At the moment im told that I cant receive any updates directly from the HTC site and orange dont really seem to care about offering a good after service.
So my option is to flash my phone with a new ROM, however which version to go for is my biggest question and I really dont have any idea. I understand the flash proceure. WIll any ROM allow updates from HTC site?
Thanks
Craig
hi
i also have a uk branded orange touch hd
i flashed it with the latest official rom from htc (the one that needs a serial number to download and the orange serials dont work)
just use a serial provided in the offical rom upgrade thread to download the rom from htc and use uspl 2.5 to flash it
i used uspl 2.5 to upgrade the rom
all info can be found using the search fuction on this forum
i also made a dump of the phone before i flashed it, just need someone to rebuild the .raw files to a flashable rom
hope this helps
math
Nice one Math, that helps a lot! Will give this a go over the weekend.

Ok, where do we start? Which ROM you choose is really a bit like asking what car should I choose to buy. The choice is entirely yours based on what you want and what you like.
I think the first question to ask yourself is what do you want? What Windows Mobile OS do you want? WM6.1, WM 6.1 with Touch flow, WM 6.1 with the latest version of Touch flow or WM 6.5 Beta. I'm sure there are more but lets keep it simple.
WM 6.1 or 6.5? HTC Touch Flow or not? What is your native language as you have nothing set in your profile etc?
May I suggest you have a look through the first few posts of each of the ROM threads for this month and see what takes your fancy. If you ask ten people you will get ten possibly different answers.
Look at peoples signatures and see what most people use as most display what current ROM they are using. Maybe try a few, but I suggest use the safest route and follow the instructions to the letter.
Its always a matter of personal opinion but I like Duttys current WM6.1 with TF3D XT3. It's the latest and well tested with fewer bugs than the stock ROM from HTC (IMHO) and is based on the latest technology from the next gen HTC phones.
Do your research and enjoy!

Yes, the choose is your, but as an Orange user myself. I was bored with the official HTC Orange Rom and decided to flash my rom. Did manage to keep the back up on original rom in cause of warranty reason. I have try quite a lot of cook rom the only problem I had was mainly with battery life wasn’t good and will not last for a day or so. Since with this rom, HD|ROM||WWE|| ** EnergyROM HD Series 21042 - Final Topaz Manila ** || Build 40909 || man!! The software and battery life is incredible. Yes I would recommend to you

where did u get this rom from? link?
couple of newbie questions. I also have orange phone ...
If I upgrade to the latest HTC rom will I loose all my programs installed in the phones memory?
Will I loose my programs/they stop working (e.g. Tomtom) that have been reigstered with the phone (in add/remove programs) on my memory card?
Can I restore everything from a backup (sprite) ?
Is there any way of goign back to the older ROM if I need to send my phone back for warranty reasons?
Thanks

Thanks for info. Just to clarify a couple of things..
Will my sprite backup restore all programs and settings to the new rom version?
How can I backup my existing ROM? I'm guessing the official ROM is a HSPL?

USPL and HSPL these are different method of putting new ROM to your phone.
you will find more information in here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Flash1
with this method you can get a backup of your current ROM

Thanks again. I never thought it would be so complicated. I thougth someone would have created a GUI for this stuff, its amazing what they have GUI's for these days and this is still command line.
Still unsure as to wether I can restore my sprite back up after going to 1.56 rom though. With the amount I have installed its probably not worth the effort for now.

change firmware on my HTC HD

My HTC HD have
RUU_BlackStone_HTC_GER_1.56.407.2_Radio_52.60.25.33_1.12.25.16DE (german rom) installed and i would like to change to English ROM.
Can i just use a new English Firmware ROM and install it on my HTC HD. If yes where can i fnd the new English ROM ?
thank you

It depends what you want.
If you want to flash a custom ROM like Duttys v3.4 or a windows mobile 6.5 ROM, you need to start at the link posted by zuadao.
In this case I recommend that you read a lot about HSPL, USPL etc. and try to learn how it works.
If all you want is to get an english speaking standard ROM from HTC, you'll find them in the wiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Ship_exe.
You can pick any ROM that has the word "WWE" in its name (WWE means world wide english).
In this case, all you need is to download the ROM and run the exe.

No he can't flash directly any other rom, only Ger version, cause spl local control the zone of the rom corrispond to spl zone!
To perform a flash of a rom with another language you must use Hardspl or Uspl!

I stand corrected!
I didn't think it through.
Sorry.
In the case of changing language using a stock ROM, I would use cRaCKwHoRe's USPL GUI v 2.5 Application to load USPL and the flash a stock ROM from the wiki.
There are instructions on how to run USPL GUI in the download and thread.

Royan
Thank you mate's. One more question: is there any risk if i use USPL GUI v 2.5 Application and then i flash a Stock ROM? If i install a english ROM and then i want go back to the original German one , can i still do this ?
Which one is better ? Hardspl or Uspl ?
Is the USPL GUI v 2.5 Application only for Stock ROM or for all ROM ?
Do i also need to uninstall "USPL GUI v 2.5 Application" after i installed the Stock ROM ?
thank you again for your help
No any risk, you can go back aslo using Uspl or Hspsl, but you must have the original rom and stock spl for you device!
You can use Uspl for every rom you want flash, read instruction in the uspl gui thread and uspl thread!
Why uninstall? It's on your pc, not on pda, you must use it every time you want flash a rom!
Good Flash and read very carefull the instruction!

Asking people to give you an opinion on the best ROMs is against forum rules. Not to be a stickler, but as it is peoples opinions, there are likely to be many different views as to which ROM is best. The best thing is to read this thread to be sure you have set up your phone correctly. You have 2 choices, either going the USPL or the HSPL route. You will see the pros and cons of each route in the thread.
I would also suggest reading the ROM threads in this forum where you will get a sense of how well the ROM is working ie any major bugs (or not) and then try a few of them yourself and see which one suits your needs best.
i still do not understand why opinionated posts are forbidden but anyway. until this thread gets closed, here is my opinion:
check out miri's rom because it has been very stable for a long time and a day after a new build is available you will get an updated rom.
just make sure that you also flash the latest radio rom.
prior to flashing make sure that you install hspl on your device.
for everything you need (hspl, radio, wm6.5 rom) there is a link in my signature.
Fast becoming a one-to-one Q&A thread

Downgrade To W.M 6.1

How To downgrade w.m 6.5 To w.m 6.1 ?
I Search All The Fourm , But Not Find Anything ..
down a 6.1 rom
Your search was flawed.
If you really searched, you would find this: Blackstone Wiki with all informations you need.
download a 6.1 rom you like, do task29 first and flash it.

It's so easy! if you have already done HSPL, and I'm sure you've done it before, if you have wm6.5 now
I by myself several times switched between 6.5.x & 6.1, all you have to do is to download a ROM of WM6.1!
here below you can see some of them!
1. Topix 3.5 WM6.1 Manila 2.1
2. Park Basic 1.3
3. Cloudy 0.2
4. Black New III by Kenia
And USPL will do nicely - my HD is working proof...
Performing Task 29 would not be bad idea if device was flashed often.
I recommend to flash latest stock 6.1 ROM you can find for your device. If not, latest Orange UK will be pretty good choice, due to later version of radio (1.14).
AFAIK, Park Basic is discontinued...
I would suggest to flash a stock ROM since it already has 6.1 and then flash a 6.1 ROM of your choice. I've experienced issues when i downgrade from 6.5 to 6.1 sometimes.
Just to be on the safer side, flash the stock rom and then flash the 6.1 rom of your choice.
I would suggest to flush stock rom and to stay with it The last one for ORANGE is a perfect rom imho

Reservations about Orange ROM
Hi, I wouldn't use the Orange ROM. I spent some time getting rid of it. Main drawback is the AGPS. It insists on making a data call everytime you want to use GPS software. Also, no Google mobile map, and when downloaded from Google, no satellite view. I would recommend the standard HTC 1.56 ROM, that uses just GPS and is just as quick.
Regards
Mike
I have Garmin and Igo software working flawlessly. No data calls made ever. GPS works fine. I dont use googlemaps so no opinion on that
I made a 6.1 ROM a while back.. check my "Energy" thread for it.

Well, a-GPS can be easily disabled, so that's no big deal. There are several tools to do that here on forum, like HD Tweak. And you HAVE TO disable it if using iGO...
But standard ROM is also not a bad idea... not bad at all...

Can't agree more With all due respect and gratitude to the cooks and the hard work and efforts they put into their roms, for a basic user like me the stock rom turns out to be the best and Ive tested quite a few custom ones.

I would advice to upgrade to SPL 1.56+ and than flash one of the roms already cooked by the chef's. Use the method that they advice. usually its pretty straight forward. You unpack the zip/rar and find two files in. execute the exe while your blackstone is connected in active sync to your pc and follow the steps. you must have at least 50% battery. I use Energy roms v21916 which are the most stable ones in my opinion but thats for you to find out... gl
