I have an HTC P3600 from france (Originally with SFR then deblocked and serial was accepted at HTC site for update) working with english Ausdim ROM and SPL 9.99-CF and i would like to try the original french ROM i downloaded from HTC site or the original english ROM from HTC wiki.
Would that cause a problem or reblock the CIF or block install of any modded ROM later
also if i try the DOPOD original ROM would it cause same problems or not??
THX for your help
should i flash SSPL before using original rom or still use Hard-SPL??
anybody there??
Since nobody answered and I actually tried it
YES it is possible to downgrade from cooked roms to original version but always use SSPL as recommended by trinityguides.info and it will propably revert your SPL & radio version to original But not CID as I have seen.
But you have to install Hard-SPL again before installing a cooked rom.
Sometimes just installing the original rom can unbrick the phone stuck at boot screen even if failed to complete but of course this is not done using SSPL so i dont assume it is that safe
these remarks are from my personal experience
My brother bought for me X1 from Leipzig Germany its factory unlocked and has no branding. But it has windows in German.
My question is can I flash english rom vithout any spl unlocking?
and if yes please give me link which english wwe rom can flashed to my device.
I have experience with Elfin and Elfin was bought from china has chinese wm so I used wwe elfin rom and directly without unlocking it flashed.
So is there any chance that I can have englisj X1 rom original not cooked that can drieclty flash to my device?
You will need to flash HardSPL for X1 first (it's sticky on this forum), then you can flash UK rom. Remember that German version of X1 have qwertz keyboard, so if you will flash UK rom then some keys will have another function then they show.
But after that hardspl when I will change to UK can I go directly SEUS to recoknized my phone as UK phone and update via website? So if somebody have experience flashed German rom to UK generic and after that tested SEUS service please share here the results.
Can somebody give me link for UK Generic non customized rom I found on forum but it says at then begingn of link Customized UK I need original genereic UK rom please help me to find also if you tell me how to dump my rom I can dume German Generic rom for share with forum
When you've done HARDSPL you can use the SE update service

One more question I have conected with SPL things.
I have experience workign with HTC TOUCH XL USPL tool and flashed lot of roms with that tool but in HTC any time you need to flash another rom you should use USPL tool and then at some stage start RUU and flash your rom.
also if you stack in bootloader or in other stage you can always recover your phone using RUU and your device default rom.
Is this possible in X1?
Lets say I have German Genereic rom deivce I want to flash to UK rom direclty without any SPL tools and stucked in some stage with error. Can I use Kovski RUU and German Genereic rom (which is the my device's defalut rom) and recover from that stage?
Thanks in advance

You should be able to yes, obviously make sure you've done hardspl before going to the UK rom.
The SEUS uses RUU to flash the rom.
If you have your own rom (such as stock german one) then it's much much easier to flash from the SD card. Jack did a decent walkthrough of that.. but just rename the file to KOVSimg.nbh and go into bootloader (volume down and reset at the same time).
is USPL available for the X1?? or its just the HD?
USPL is not available for Xperia... would be cool if it is made available at some point, though I've already flashed HardSPL!
i'd like to restore to a valid update from the sony update service.. so i restore my stockspl successfully , loaded update service however it says there is no update for my device.
currently i have x1_firestorm_v5.0.28005LEO-MAX ... it works well however like i said above i need to restore to the original sony firmware
i dont know why it says no update is available?
pls help?

Hi everbody
I used HARDSPL to flash cocked roms on my X1
the point is I have to send it to repair the keypad, I tried SE update center to flash the stock 6.1 ROM, but it didn't work as I expected, so I flashed the stock RUU_SIGNED from the sticked Hard SPL thread here, tried to update again using update center, and bingo, it's working, but my point is, what should the boot loader screen now be showing, mine shows
"KOVS110
SPL-0.78.0000
MicroP1-787
MicroP1-707"
any problems if I sent it to the repair center now?
thx

you're fine, that's how it should look like.
(actually, you reflashed stock-spl 0.72 and SEUS updated it to 0.78)
if you still had hard-spl on it, it would read "0.72.OliNex".
edit:
did you flash a stock-rom first or not? you should do that BEFORE flashing stock-spl... (in case you're using a custom rom)
Thanks dreaminside

well, I couldn't flash stock rom using SEUS without first flashing Stock SPL, so yeah, I flashed SPL first, then ROM, but boot loader is still showing the same msg, so am I still fine ??

well, if SEUS didn't complain...
concerning the bootloader-figures you're fine.
Looking at your SPL its looks like you've been successful
A few questions:
my diamond (mda compact iv) is hard resetting everytime i soft reset after installing the gen.y r5.5 sense 2.1 rom. i have hardspl 1.4.
i've spent all day today ****ing around with the phone. i think my next step is to try flashing an official phone, hard reset, then reflash a different rom, then hard reset again.
1: since it was originally a t-mobile branded mda compact iv, do i need to find the original t-mobile rom or can i just flash any official htc 6.1 rom?
2: do i need return all the spl, radio to the original as well before i flash to an official rom?
thanks.
Hi, since you have hard spl, you can flash any official diamond rom. You don't need to revert spl, or to change the radio. If the official rom has radio inside it will be flashed.

I have a problem with my Diamond, HTC USB Sync Drivers which i downloaded
wouldn't work, i can't extracted them. No archives found????
Hi and welcome to xda , what is the os on your pc. From what I remember the hotsync drivers were installed automatically. Try to download the rom again, maybe the RUU was toasted.
