Hi, XDAers.
I am gonna to sell my HTC Diamond but I need to falsh back the original rom before I trade-in my phone. Is is possible that I can simply download the Rom update from HTC Website and install it? Or I need to use MTTY to flash the offical rom back? If so, where can I find the Image file?
I am currently using ETO.Y (WM 6.1) and radio version 1.17.25.09.
Thanks for your help.
Any updates / answers? Im also wondering thank guys
Not able to use search?
I suppose this should help:

Basically you need the right combination of SPL and the ROM (incl. the radio)
Good luck!

Are there any issues rolling backwards with ROM's?
Joel
I rolled back to the original ROM from the Dopod ROM without any problems.
thanks for directing us to this ROM... now that i have this, i can test the Dopod ROM with/GPS and return to the HTC version if necessary.

Hi Raeldor,
Do you have a P3600 or DOPOD ? Did u use SSPL to install DOPOD ROM or you have a Super CID phone?
Thanks.
I have a P3600. I used SSPL.

Did you use SSPL to go back to HTC orignal ROM or did it directly using standard boot loader etc.
Thanks.

Good question
Confused Tofush
I just got my HTC P3600 few days ago. I am still researching about flashing ROM and stuffs. If I somehow want return back to the original ROM (ROM ver 1.15.405.5 WWE) from RUU, will it include the ExtROM ver 1.15.405.101 in the download? If not, do anyone know where I can access the ExtROM ver that came with my phone initially? Thank you very much for your help.
can anyone tell me how i can downgrade to the original rom as the 1.93 one has messed up my phone big time
thanks guys
Same here. its back to the stock rom for my mda!
If you go to the HTC website, you should be able to log in to the "HTC Club" and download the 1.37 ROM.

Have you tried to hard reset the phone? and stert the setting from 0, how did you manage to mess up your phone
How about backing up rom that i've got i my diamond.
I'm asking because i have polish localization and very nice keyboard.
Is there any way to extract from my rom that localization and other interesting apps and then install it to the roms that are here on that forum.
When I log in to HTC Club I can only see one ROM to download and that is the 1.93. Can someone post a link to the Original 1.37 ROM on the HTC site?
Thanks

Never mind, I see they completely changed their ROM download system. No idea how to get it from there now.
Thanks for that. Anyone know where I can get the 1.37 ROM from in case I don't like the new one?
Thanks
If im not mistaking, the cd you got with the original package contains the 1.35/1.37 depending on which rom you had when you recieved your phone.
But the rom messing up your phone isn't logic it's more likely you didn't close all programs during the flashing proces or that the blame is on software you installed later on.
just to let you know i rung HTC and they told me that there is no way of officially downgrading your rom to stock again. They also said the official update works fine so if anyone is having problems they wont help you with that. Thankfully i changed to a new sim card and that seems to have sorted out some of the issues
hi to all, i have installed 6.5 rom but i do not like it and now i do not know how to downgrade to 6.1, i have tried with 2 rom but only with error.
Please help me.
Thank's

You must reflash with a 6.1 ROM. With an Hard reset you have simply reload the 6.5 .

HTC HD
Hello can some one help i have an htc hd and currently running 6.5 rom, now i have some phone damage thats not caused by the rom this is a factory issue but anyway i want to default to 6.1 rom like it originally came from factory that way i can be covered under warranty phone is european was purchased in london i believe thats what the seller told me but anyway some one please give me ideas and brief instructions on how to flash the 6.1 original hd settings???
You can reflash to 6.1 using the ROM on the HTC website:
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=533
That should get you back to what it was for a claim under the warranty.
May be you not already run HSPL

Firstly, you need to first reflash to a stock rom. Many stock roms can be found here.
Next, you need to revert to a stock spl which matches your rom. Depending on the rom you use this could be either 1.13, 1.14 or 1.54. You may need a little trial and error to find the right one. You'll have some colour issues with the rom if you use the wrong one (ie blue/green low res graphics). The procedure to follow and the stock spl's can be found at the bottom of this post
Follow ClydeB1's advice and you should be fine. Any further queries on returning to stock, post in this thread

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

if you take backup from your current ROM you can restore it later

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?
Thanks

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.
Here we go! I got HTC TD2.
Rom version is: 2.16.405.4(67041)

Here is what I learned. Please correct me if I am wrong
- I have a Touch Diamond edition with official OS installed.
- I want to use the latest OS available, but that is not possible officially so I am here .
1) I need to install Hard-SPL Unlocker for Topaz, from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312
2) The touch diamond radio is already 4.49.25.91 so no upgrade require.
3) I need to select a OS from here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=486) and upgrade.
Now I am not able to ask any question on the above forum as I am new here So I will keep reading to find my choise...

You are in right track
You need to do the Hard-SPL to upgrade the ROM. Once you are done keep trying some ROM and you should get one for your style .
