I dont' know if this is the problem of onkolog rom or just the way i flash my phone.
First i use the old rom of davideuck Davideuck_V-7, CE OS 5.2.20769 on 29,March . I then got trouble with battery drained with this rom when i used SPB 3.0.
I try to update to new 6.1 rom of onkolog on 1, May
This is what i did.
My phone was on and connected to my PC. I then run HardSPL 1.56 successfully.
The phone was on again and i run the wrapper file in the same folder with onkolog rom. It run smoothly but when it recognized my O2 network it told me to be restarted after 5 seconds and when the "htc" words appear my phone hang.
i need to do a soft reset and this time it worked.
I then tried to install flip it. It required to restart after install and this time i got hang again.
I install htc Tweak and use it soft reset, some times it worked sometimes my phone hang and i need to do soft reset.
The same problem appear when i used A-A reset software.
I then decided to go back to early version of onkolog 6.1 rom (used older version of hspl) on 1-April and still got the same problem.
I tried to reflash with uspl but still stucked with usb driver.
Can anybody tell me how to show this problem . I really like the idea of onkolog but maybe he is too busy to answer me.
Hi,
I have just tryed to flash both newest laurentius rom and newes kwbr rom
Flashing goes ok, but when all files are loaded, phone just resets and starts all over again.
im on spl-1.56 Olinex
Help needed
Whenever you flash a new rom your phone will automatically reboot and start up again. The phone will need to be setup again with date/time etc but connections etc should automatically setup itself.
This is similar to a hard reset as everything has been wiped from phone apart from OS and whatever you had stored on SD Card
Once setup go to Settings > System and it should state which rom you have installed
Yes but it starts up again with setting time date and so on.
When finished loading files, it starts over as you says, but then rom starts loading again. its like it hard resets all the time instead of just resetting..
I flash. allign screen - set time date and so on - files load - phone restarts
And then i shall allign screen - set time and date - load files - phone restarts
and on and on and on

Ah, right. Apologies. Now I understand your problem better.
Had you ever successfully flashed a rom? Or has thius always happened with a cooked rom?

You can better ask it in L26 ROM topic, but I know that Laurentius ROM (2.3 or 2.4) KEEPS hardresseting automatically due to bugs in his cooked rom. After 2 or 3 times automatic HR it stops....
Yes i have successfully flashed roms, i came from kwbr 2.1
i have tryed with more roms than laurentis´ also with kwbr 2.3 and 2,3,1

Ok, sounds like a hardware problem to me. I've had only automatic Hard Resets with L26's Rom. No problems with Kwbr or Dutty's roms.
Try flashing via USPL and tell us how it goes.
had same problem with l26 rom will never use laurentius rom's again, dutty's and miri's roms are the best
I have tryed with USPL and its the same
Now i cant do anything from my computer. How is it that i flash from sd card?

"take a look at your SD card. direct folder storage card/sdconfig.txt. delete the inside code. im sure there is a code which means hardreset after flash/hardreset. i dont know what it means but i just delete it. but it still hardreset again. so let it hardreset again. then it will be ok until you hardreset your self. lol."
I did it and it worked as a charm. Have you flashed you device with the memory card inserte into it?
no i didnt flash with memory card in it, and memorycard is not in it now
i just managed to flash danish ship rom, but cant seem to flash stock uspl
i will see if phone starts up wit danish ship rom
It worked.. My phone is now alive with danish ship rom..
I will now try to flash newest from Miri..

I'm sorry for this post, because the answer is probelly somewhere on this forum. But I can't find it.
I have my diamond for about a year now and I like to install a custom rom with windows mobile 6.5. But I can't seem to figure out what I need for this.
I already chosen a rom, but I have no idea if it is any good, because there are so many roms out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563245
So my first question, is this rom any good?
Second question, what type of hard SPL do I need, Do I need the normal one that requires roms to be signed or do I need the developers edition?
Third question. Do I need MTTY for this or can I first try it without MTTY?
And the last question, if I don´t like the rom is it easy to install the original rom again or do I need to do something special for that.
I hope you guys can answer my questions so I can start flashing my rom.
Grtz, Eric
EDIT: I tried installing hard-SPL unsigned, but get an error that it can't connected to my phone. But it is connected using windows mobile device center
why do you want to flash a new rom?
ive recenetly done the same, i wanted to flash my rom as the original was tied to vodafone and some of the features like youtube, facebook, and opera wouldnt work as they wanted vodafone connection ( im on virgin mobile).
anyway after much trial and error i in the end found it versy easy.
3 simple steps. first flash your bootloader
i found the best and easiest one was spl olinex version 4.0
u need to softboot to do this ( hold the down volume and switch on phone, have usb cable connected then use the flash util provided with the above.
once thats done you need to flash rom the radio
again the one out there that seems the best to use is version 1.00.25.05 diamondruu radio
again soft reset so you get the try colour screen and run the flash rom update ( takes about 2 mins at most)
finally choose your version of win mobile 6.5 ( i got windows revoluton 7.1 ultra clean edition)
do soft reset again, then run the flash update and again this takes about 5-10 mins for this)
all worked perfectly for me and it was my first try.
though i will be changing it as the revolution is missing some vital aspects i like.
i know its basic but hopeully you can see its not the daunting prospect some people make out though any rom upgrade carries a minot risk i found this to be as easy as 1,2,3
good luck

Because I would like some new features on my phone. Like wm 6.5 or a new version of manilla. It's getting a little boring having the same phone for over a year.
@miramele, thanks for your response. I'll give it a try tomorrow and hope I won't brick my phone.
let us know how you get on, it took me several attempts as each time i was trying while within the phone itself, if you hold the down volume key and power on the phone you get the tri colour screen, in this mode i had 100% success each time.
doing it within the OS with phone on it just stuck at 0%.
And since then i have re flashed it with a diff version of wm 6.5 that i prefer and all is good.
the version i flashed to is the manila 2.1 with the latest touchFLO 3d so ive not even bothered with Spb mobile shell though may add this later.

Thanks for the advice, if I understand correctly I have to get to the tri-color screen and then install hard-spl? But can I connect to my laptop while in this mode?
I'm gone try it tomorrow because I didn't have any time today.
Thanks for all the help, especially miramele.
I made the step and am now running a custom rom without any issues. Many thanks for the help and for pulling me over the line.
Hi guys i got a problem with my HD because suddenly no rom is working for me anymore. Every rom i flash gets stuck at the booting screen you know "The device is getting prepared for first use" after this message dissaperes it gets stuck. The only rom for me working is the standard 02 Germany rom.

Update your Hardspl making sure its unsigned and do a task 29, there is a thread on it
mmh i don't think it's the SPL , cause i got 1.56 olinex which should be right for new roms, but i will try task 29 thanks.
okay performed task 29 and installed black dragon 3.3 [ger]still not working, but i will try diffrent roms. clean rom 7.0 not working either.
SOryy but i gotta correct myself XTROM GRID LEO 3 was working but very unstable crashing after a minute or even while booting.
Need help i don't want to walk around with the stupid original rom
Use original ROM for few days.
I guess you could survive that.
If HD is working with original ROM, you're doing something wrong.
Since I believe you know what you're doing, and you're not doing anything wrong, I guess HD will crash with original ROM... and that will mean it's service time...
Ah... and I believe you're from german speaking area... right?
I don't know what i could be doing wrong i flash my roms as usual as it worked before ? But i found another rom working it's a stock rom "OrangeUK_HTCTouchHD_1.59.61.2_Radio_52.64.25.34_1.14.25.24_Ship_phone_software" but at least it is a pretty new one.
Is that ROM still working on your device?
I used that ROM for a long time, and I still have a radio from that ROM on my device...
Would recommend flashing stock rom & stock SPL to see if problem is with device. If you are still getting problems with device after flashing stock SPL and rom, then problem may be with device, i.e. service required
Hi there,
It's not a hardware issue, it always happens due to ROM-Radio incompatibility.
Most of cooked roms are compatible with Radio version 1.14.25.24
There's a lot of beautiful ROMS for our device but most of the new ones face one problem SOD (Sleep of Death) when the device goes to sleep you can't wake it up.
What "causes" SOD?:
* Bad Flashes
* Residual code for flashing you device a lot
* Newer SYS cooked in ROM
I've been searching for a solution and this is what I've found.
qbus00 said:
That's something which I have to do...
I'll downgrade SYS to 21896 soon which does not face SOD problem.

MTTY is a software that allows you to format internal storage before you flash a new rom.
By doing this you will make sure that no residual files or past informations are kept in the system. This usually fixes random crashes and weird behaviours on PDAs.

rjd1 said:
I started having issues similar to this and a few other non-normal issues with NRG ROM. I ended up loading carrier ROM again, re-flashing 2.08 radio and then 23544 COokie ROM and all cleared up. It appears alot of risidual code happens with the HD2 ROMS regardless of AS or SD card ROM loading. I added to my flashing every 2 weeks or so - I am a flashaholic...

Hi,
(To make it short, follow the red sentence to format your phone to avoid roms problem.)
I hex-edited RomUpdateUtility.exe so it runs task 29 right after flashing ruu_signed.nbh
Task 29 formats your phone memory (=binfs). It prevents weird error appearance when you flash new Roms.
you stile need something to flash, it may be a radio, a splashscreen nbh or a blank nbh file (shadrack repack provide a tiny blank nbh).
Usually you don't need anything more than the file provided in the packs. so:
Just unzip and run task29.exe .
Eventually, you may replace ruu_signed.nbh with the radio/splashscreen of your choice.
When update status reach 99%, press vol down button, and keep it pressed until the phone reboot to the three color bootloader.
After the phone reset itself, your old rom will be gone, so it can't boot to winmo: binfs has been formated, your phone memory is clean.
if you fail to press vol down key and your phone get stuck on the white screen, just remove your battery, then try again: press power, and keep vol down pressed immediatly next, until the phone get to RVB bootloader.
When your phone is back to RVB bootloader screen, use the leocustomruu.exe provided with your favorite rom package to flash a new rom, or flash it from memory card using standard procedure.

To do:
remove the "reset" command from task29.exe, to stay into boot loader screen. Then, one should flash the new rom immediatly using their cook's flash utility.

I've tried some of these suggestions, but none work. I tried Task29 flashing a boot screen and everything was erased. I flashed a new ROM and guess what? SOD even with task29
If you want to try any of these procedures do it "At your own risk" task29 for Topaz will flash a custom boot screen and erase your WinMo.
Use it at your own risk
And you, got any solutions that want to share?
PS. I'm sorry for my english, remember I'm El Toro not "The Bull"
I have an ATT Pure and have flashed every ROM on here that is in English and not once has one failed to boot or contiunue running till I get tired of it. You do have to use HARDSPL with all of them. My only ROM issue are the ROMS that have everything in the Start menu instead of separate folders. It seems so disorganized but that is a different topic.
I just wanted to point out it must be your phone or you have not used hardSPL or maybe your phone vendor bugged it so you can't flash a new ROM.
Oh I also noticed you say it's and ATT thats unlocked. That could be the issue. Mine is not unlocked. BTW being unlocked would mean it is not an ATT unit any more right?

Thanks for replying, my pure is Hardspl'd with the latest 2.51 Olinex. It's unlocked meaning Sim Unlocked that I could use it with any Operator that uses a Sim Card, and yes I could flash every single ROM that it's posted in this Topaz ROM Development thread. I've been using Dutty WWE Official Test ROM since he posted it and no problems have come up at all. The "new ROMS" are the ones that caused the SOD even our chefs have suffered from this bug. So it's not the device.
I never had the SOD happen to me. And i have htc pure too.
Apparently, the great majority of us do not have this problem, and have never heard of it. As long as MTTY is run, I've never heard of anyone having a sleep of death issue.

Qbus13 Com2 ROM with SYS downgraded doesn't face SOD.
If you want to try any of these procedures do it "At your own risk" Keep in mind that HD2 task29 files are intended for that specific device not for the Topaz I put them here just for reference, If you want to try the task29 for Topaz I could post it here, It will flash a custom boot screen and erase your WinMo.

Standby?
I've ran a few Rom's here from energy 6.5.5 to Dutty R6 - R10
with the latest 6.5.x builds, every once in a while after coming back from standby the device will be unresponsive. The touch screen seems to not do anything, but the hardware keys work fine, typically placing it back to sleep and waking it up again seemed to fix it... I have had to pull the battery once.
This didn't happen on the 6.5 builds, only 6.5.5.
Mostly running Energy Aprl and May releases.
I had SOD. I've solved it by changing my SIM card since previous one was more than 10 years old. With new one I never had this problem.
I'm using NhatHoa TopazRom 23563 WWE so far no SOD after 2 days of using it.
I flashed the Dutty's Topaz Sense 2.5 Holy Grail R10 |WWE| rom last night and get my phone goes into the SOD pretty much every time I leave it alone for more than 10 minutes. I have an HTC Pure as well. From the searches I've done it seems solving this problem is pretty much a turkey shoot. I just wish there was a concrete solution, as I kind of like being able to use my phone.

The same thing happened to me with that ROM but if you flash Dutty's Topaz Holy Grail R11 WWE it's fine no SOD
On the Touch Pro 2, Tilt 2 section they have a lot of theories about what causes SOD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=648134
but still no solutions.......
They said that Task29 is the solution but is not I'm posting the Task29 files if you want to try it yourself

Connect to PC via Active Sync/WMDC.
Execute Task 29.
When phone boots to "Touch Pro 2" screen (or whatever your splash screen happens to be), I hold down the volume down button while hitting the reset button.
Once I'm on the Bootloader screen, and it shows "USB", I flash the new ROM from the PC as I normally would.
When the phone vibrates, indicating the ROM upgrade is complete, I disconnect the phone from the computer.

As every one understand this command format the rom,
Just unzip and run task29.exe . You may replace ruu_signed.nbh with the radio of your choice.
After the phone reset itself, your old rom will be gone, so it won't boot: binfs has been formated, your phone memory is clean.
You'll need to power up in bootloader mode (press vol down right after power key), then use the leocustomruu.exe provided with your favorite rom package, or flash it from memory card using standard procedure.

This files are for Topaz only it will replace your Boot screen or if you want to replace it with another boot screen or radio is up to you. I like the boot screen because the process is faster. **Use it at your own risk**
