Just upgraded from wm 6.1 pro to t mobile wm 6.5 official rom on MDA compact V,not very impressed it`s pants,my question is if I use a cooked rom from here do I still have to hard spl the device,can some please help ,
Maybe some links to help me on my way,ie hspl links and best roms ect etc
Desparate.
thankyou.
Yes, you must install HSPL first.
Have a read here to get you started.
IMO the stock ROMS don't get anywhere close to the cooked ones on here. I changed my T-mobile ROM to one of Dutty's and have never looked back. The speed and the look of it is just unreal in comparison to the original. Go for it!
Ps It's really simple to do so don't worry.

I am using Pdaviet for a few months and i like it actually.
As far as i read on the forums there's a pdaviet 6.1 version but the original site is in vietnamese and i couldnt find any download link,
moreover there are different roms that are easy to find around but i didint try yet like touch-it etc..
I have some questions..
Does it worth to update to 6.1 version?
If the answer is yes, anybody has link for pdaviet for herald 6.1 or do u advice other roms..
And if other roms are better, do i have to load original firmware before replacing the roms?
Yes it is worth it.
What phone do you have? You should be able to install the Rom using HardSPL or USPL without having to reload the OEM software... but that depends on what phone you have and the IPL/SPL on it.
I have hera110 aka wing..
So i better try it at weekend
Check out Aserg's rom or ITJE's roms. They are both amazing cooks. I've used both of their Roms extensively and have found them to be the best in my opinion.
Sorry im sort of new to flashing....but is Hardspl a rom like duttys? or is it a software program that improves your tytn 2 or something? what is its use and what does it exactly do. I saw that theres a version for WM 6.0 and 6.1....so i wanted to know exactly what its use is. Also if you instal a cooked rom, can you still flash your rom back to original att rom so that ATT doesnt know you put a cooked rom like duttys or so.
please read the wiki and stickies...like seriously...read them

Or you could just go to the phone manufacturers website and download the applicable file there and follow their (comprehensive) instructions. If you want to keep things all official, it's actually a very straightforward process. You only need to bother with hardSPL etc if you want to flash a custom ROM. A very important question you should ask yourself is why do I want WM 6.1. If you're thinking it's newer so it must be more reliable/better/faster etc etc check out the threads in Kaiser General relating to all the problems after upgrading - at least with regards to most of the official HTC ROM offerings (certainly the current UK one is included). I tried WM 6.1 for a while and had such significant problems, I had it reverted back to 6.0.
MMMMMM
To me WM 6.1 appearance is more sexier than the WM 6.0. Thats why am looking to upgrade my device in to WM 6.1
Flying Kiwi has a point about doing it officially - I'd forgotten that there was an official 6.1 rom. That said, for me custom roms are much more fun!
I've had both 6.0 and 6.1 on my phones and to be honest, I can't tell the difference.

What are you doing with your phone ......
Having tried both, there's very little difference between the two as far as the TyTN II native ROMs are concerned. It's only the customised ROMs that offer a flashier flash (but you can also get alot of that stuff through installing cabs - full details in the wiki and by searching/reading up on the xda-dev website).

guide how one flash roms
unless otherwise stated all roms are flashed the same way
hey thanks for ur help..i understood the procedure for upgrading the ROM,but it stil doesnt answer my question.Can i install a WM6.5 ROM on my WM6.1 diamond?
Yes you can.
Flashing a 6.5 rom is just like flashing a 6.1 rom. All you have to do is find the rom that best suits your needs (easier said than done). I've flashed my phone many many times (warning, it becomes addictive).
As a matter of fact I assume that most diamond owners on this forum are already running winmo 6.5.
Check out the rom section of this forum.
hey thanks a lot..thats what i wanted to know.ya m already getting addicted choosing a good ROM)
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

A guide for downgrading already exists. Just scroll down to the ottom of the first post in this thread
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.
