Database Develop

Lots of research done, nearly ready to start. Some questions...

Will be receiving a HTC TyTN II. It will be Orange branded and sim locked.
I understand the first thing will be to install Hard SPL.
1. Now, I read somewhere that HTC haven't released any official ROMs of their own with Windows Mobile 6.1. Why is it that the Shipped ROMs wiki page has them here?
2. Whether or not they are HTC's own 6.1 ROMs, there are three I'm willing to try. They are (and I'm just copying and pasting these from the Shipped ROMs wiki page):
3.03.405.0 (Radio 1.64.06.04) updated original WWE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365047
3.02.405.0 (Radio 1.58.26.20) original WWE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365068
3.28.405.0 (Radio 1.65.16.25) original HTC WWE (World Wide English) found here http://rapidshare.com/files/1170540....0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.16.25_Ship.zip​
These three seem to be "original" HTC Windows Mobile 6.1 ROMs. All are worldwide English. So what's the difference between each? Should I simply assume the one with the higher version number is the better one?

they have released wm6.1 check htc.com....
htc e-club...

Thanks for confirming for me. I can't check the e-Club yet as I will be getting the phone maybe tomorrow. Anyhow, I really just want the original (and latest if possible) HTC Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM. Which should I pick form the list in the original post. Is one of them the same as the current one on HTC's e-Club?

As your kaiser is Orange branded you will not be able to download from HTC, i wont recognise your imei. You should be able to find a link here, just root about the threads a bit. I'd start with the XDA kaiser wiki.

Thanks. Yup, I found 3 that seem to be HTC originals. Don't know how up to date they are with HTC's e-Club but they should do. From the three I have found below, I'm assuming the higher version is the latest (3.28.405.0), but why does the Shipped ROMs Wiki page not just delete the other 2 and keep the latest one?
Here are the 3 I found:
3.03.405.0 (Radio 1.64.06.04) updated original WWE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365047
3.02.405.0 (Radio 1.58.26.20) original WWE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365068
3.28.405.0 (Radio 1.65.16.25) original HTC WWE (World Wide English) found here http://rapidshare.com/files/11705402...16.25_Ship.zip​
Question 1: Which should I go for, the one I'm assuming as the latest (3.28.405.0), or are all three completely different things?
Question 2: Do these HTC ROMs include all the bundled HTC software that would normally come on an original HTC TyTN II Kaiser?
I'd really like these 2 questions answered before I try the upgrade.

Some users have better luck with older versions, or older radios. Newest isn't always better

Appear to be different build versions an different radios, Some builds/radios work better for some users than others.

Hope this helped in some way. The best way to find the best ROM/Radio is to try them all and see what suits you the best.

Just remember that you will need to unlock the phone too, otherwise installing a new radio (which is needed for WM6.1) will lock your phone and require an unlock code. There is free software on this site to do that for you. Just follow it to the letter and try and use sim cards that are not sim code locked (which i done and had so many problems getting it unlocked)

If it arrives soon you have a very good chance it will have 6.1. If not there is a 6.1 update for download on the Orange UK 6.1 thread. With this you wouldn't have to 'crack' it and invalidate any warranty?
This is what I did and then load the cabs you want. I think every htc cab you could ever need is in here.

I think we are referring to Security unlocking. This process ensures that you phone cannot become bricked by installing the latest radios from HTC that have extra security. Without security unlock you cannot downgrade these radios without a tool called FrankenKaiser.
I'd recommend Sec Unlock for every user, It can be re-locked later if need be.
Thanks
Dave

Yes but the Orange UK phones are radio locked too, which requires the phone to sim unlocked and HardSPL installed to (To prevent Bricking)

Thank you all for your replies.
The phone will have Windows Mobile 6.1 on it, but it's Orange branded with Orange's bloatware. I would prefer just installing the default HTC ROMs. It's also going to be SIM locked to Orange (I confirmed all this before purchase). But, buying the Orange one also worked out cheaper for me.
Question 1:The first thing I'm going to try is SIM unlocking it, while keeping the Orange ROM as it is. Then I'll try a non-Orange SIM card and see if it works. Will I be able to simply unlock the SIM by just using KaiserUnlocker.exe?
Question 2:After that, if I don't like the Orange branded Windows Mobile 6.1, isn't it simply a case of installing HardSPL v3.x.x (latest) and then continuing with the HTC ROM flash procedure as found here?
Question 3:I've just read some replies above about security unlocking. I'll need to do that as well? Is it automatic as part of HardSPL version 3.x.x?
Sorry for all the questions, I've done and still am researching the Wiki/stickies. I figure it'll save time if I clarify the steps now before attempting anything risky.

You must have Hard SPL v1 OliPof to use the Kaiser SIM Unlocker (from here)
The security unlock is not part of the Hard SPL 3.* process, there is a seperate thread by jocky on Security unlocking.

Ah, but then the KaiserUnlocker says I must also be on a Windows Mobile 6.0 ROM to SIM unlock it, and my Orange phone will come with a 6.1 ROM. And on the HardSPL v3 FAQ, it says if you're on a 6.1 ROM, you should use HardSPL v3.
So, does this mean I can't unlock the SIM, without first installing HardSPL v3, downgrading to a HTC 6.0 ROM, then installing HardSPL v1, use KaiserUnlocker, then install HardSPL v3 again and upgrade to HTC 6.1 ROM?
Or what better option does an Orange-branded HTC TyTN II Windows Mobile 6.1 Sim-locked phone have?

Install Hard SPL v3 and try the SIM Unlock, sometimes it will work, if it fails, downgrade to Hard SPL v1 and Flash a WM6.0 ROM. Then Sim unlock, then Flash the 3.* Hard SPL and a WM6.1 ROM & Radio.

Thanks. Not too concerned about the Radio if it isnt hard to Flash. Is it true you have to do a SIM Unlock to flash a Radio? I looked at the top of the Radio Thread and it doesnt mention it.

Sim Unlock required to flash a Topaz radio. Check radio thread. I am using 4.49.25.17. No SIM unlock required for that one. Just HardSPL.

4.48.25.20 is not yet available...

Thanks Eras2r. It works.

Thanks Eras2r! It worked for me too.
Now if I could only get the Topaz 4.48.25.20 radio loaded up - in theory the rilphone.dll is already on the AT&T ROM so it should work.
I have HardSPL and unlocked sim. Yet, the Topaz radio will not load for me. Any ideas how to get it to load?

Not SIM unlocked, it has to be SECURITY unlocked if you want to flash a non-Rhodium radio. If you want a Rhodium radio, only HardSPL is needed.

I am SECURITY unlocked - I've done the HardSPL thing and can load ROMs, Radios, etc. without a problem. I am also sim unlocked, but I guess that isn't required.
I still cannot load the Topaz radio on to my Tilt 2 though.

Any word on if/when the splashscreen upon bootup will be included or if you can go back to the stock SPL?

this build is very stable (i installed it on my tilt 2). Wierd thing tho is that the HTC Youtube app is missing.

....so you purchased the complete unlocker package from olipro WITH the security unlock included?? If not, you may not be security unlocked. When in bootloader mode, does it say "security unlocked" on top of the screen?

Security unlock, SIM unlock, and HardSPL are 3 different things. Unless you purchased the complete package from Olipro as mentioned in the thread (or were given a code directly), you won't be able to flash a radio from a different model of phone.
SIM unlock = use of SIMs other than the carrier locked ones
HardSPL = use of other ROMs, as well as other Rhodium-SPECIFIC radios
Security unlock = use of radios from other phone models (such as Topaz)

Thanks so much OP
still cannot get the whole package with rom radio huh? I guess I will wait longer. Too itchy to try different rom. ahhhh

was just going to suggest flashing Shipped ROMs, but you already seemed to have done that.
why hadn't you just flashed the stock Shipped ROM with Mango?
supposedly, that one OTA update after Mango fixes issues with Compass.
can't say for certain, though, haven't gotten that update.

Hi Shadow,
its a O2 germany handy and i have flashed it to shipped europe.
my device was on mango and i have the troubles with the compas
because of the problem my flashing orgie begins and the result was a halfbrick...
ok the update is done and can i tell you IT WORKS... i think it works my first try to check the function was the JaefreyGPS lite and now iam able to set the internal compas.
I think I was too hasty with my request
sorry people but many many thanks for your help and to this forum

[Q] Unlocking HTC HD7

Hello,
I want to unlock my phone HTC HD7. I've read a lot of threads regarding unlocking and as far as I understand, i need to downgrade my os to version 7008 ( my current OS version is 7392 ). I'm completly new at this so I wanted to post my phone specification so that someone could direct me, so that i don't mess anything up. I'm affraid of bricking my phone so please help me out.
My phone specs:
Model: HTC HD7 T9292
OS version: 7.0.7392.0

Radion hardware version: A.102.0.D4
Bootloadrer version: 1.69.2250.0(117833)
Chip SOC versionL 2.2.5.0
DIM : PD20100 5VDC == 1A
I don't know what kind of ROM i have and I don't know where to check what it is. I've tried unlocking my phone with ChevronWP7 unlocker, i've installed the sertificate, but the unlocker doesn't recognize my phone.
P.S. Is there a way to unlock my phone with the current OS version on later, or do i nessesarly have to downgrade it first?

your bootloader is below 4.x (1.69) so you can flash whatever custom wp7 rom you want after having h/rspl your phone (go there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295068)
chevron is working (with many conditions) on 7004/7008 roms only...so i suggest you to flash custom roms, should be more easy...
you will learn more about rom specificities there : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876451

yes your bootloader is below 4.x, so you dont have to downgrade your HSPL....
but first you have to goto bootloader screen and check you model number !
and see if you can install HSPL from cotulla, if your model is not supported by cotulla HSPL then you cant do anything, like me, wait and prey cotulla releases more support
have a gr8 day

I also need help!
Dear friends! I also newly bought HD7 and I downgraded my version from 7390 to 7004. Now, I have no idea about how to unlock it! I checked this website but I am really confused... Which programs should I have and what is the process for unlocking? Could somenone post step-by-step instructions both for me and our other friends? We are new to this mobile so your help will be appreciated. Thanks for your understanding and politeness...
Here are the specs of my HTC HD7:

hi gargamel35
i dont think you had 2 downgrade as your v7390 shouldnt have bootloader higher then 4.x... but any way,
first boot into bootloader and check model mids number?
step 1 check to see if your phone will accept Cotulla HSPL, if NOT you cant do anything !
cheers

Thanks jhonny for your help but I have no idea how I can do the things you told me. I am totally new to this subject, as I told you before. I will be glad if you can write down the step-by-step instructions. I have no idea about HTCs since I have always used Apple products. Thanks a lot...

first turn off the phone
once phone is off ... press power button and volume down
you should then enter bootloader screen... tri colour

ooooh okay..i see yea they are 2 differ totally things ....also I been looking up how to do custom roms for 2 months now still havnt figured it out I did learn a bit tho..but ya now I do no that I have to downgrade my os and bootlloader both together or can I just down grade my bootloader only and that's it ..and then I can just install custom roms.im probly the dumbest slow learner on here about custom roms lol but smart on everthing else but I got your link lets see … also I don't have the ability to make a what u call Y cable and I don't have a micr sd or card reader slots built on my pc cuz I built a custom pc without a card reader ..as I just use usb slots only so the y cable and gold card method cant be used at all so .only way to do custom roms is thrugh my usb 2.0 or 3.0 connections . probly no other ways invented yet …Any how I downloaded task 00 and task 29 then 2nd step I got to Where it says if your bootloader is 5.xx..wich mine is ..can I do any of those methods even ansars? downgrade process

hi mate
you have to downgrade your HSPL.
when you flash a stock rom that will aslo downgrade your HSPL at the same time.
try any stock rom, ansar has a couple
check bootloder...HSPL to be less then 3x
after each go

out of curiosity following those steps to reflash and unlock a hd7 would it re-simlock to default carrier such as O2?

no

First you need HSPL or RSPL this is requierd to flash any custom rom or radio firmware.
your SPL version is 5.10 you have to follow this first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411904
Here you have the link with many roms to downgrade your spl http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427890
i choosed the rom : RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.60.401.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE.rar
Choose one listed in the dft RSPL software you will understand when you will run the software read carefully the instructions or you will brick your device
Then follow this :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647 to HSPL RSPL
Thats what i did to install nextgen rom

So first i have to follow the anasar technique to downgrade SPL(in this i have to install a schubert shipped rom> which is in the 2nd link u gave right?! )
Then i have to use HSPL RSPL.And while doing HSPL RSPL i have to flash a rom ( nextgen+ ) on my HD7 right?
And if i brick my phone is there any way to fix it?!

right i flashed the RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.60.401.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE because in the rspl software there is a version for this spl
then you do rspl then you do hspl then you flash nextgen thats what i did what all worked fine for me
And if i brick my phone is there any way to fix it?!
hum i dont know , but maybe theres a solution on xda

Hello , me and yashf50 talked by pm , and he told me his HD7 was on T-mobile , the steps i puted are for unbranded phones i think for Hd7 phones that are branded they need to follow this method first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893152 i think so , just wait the opinion of the experts

so here's my question then !! The preNodo method only works with unbranded devices ??? like it won't work with a Tmobile HD7 USA ???

The Tutorial thread explains what needs to be done in the clearest way, if you haven't read it, check it out
Basically, if you have a Pre-Nodo backup in Zune, it shouldn't matter whether you've got a Branded or Unbranded device. If you don't have a pre-Nodo backup, and you're device is Branded and on SPL 5.xx (which from what i'm reading, your's is) then the easiest way to donwgrade SPL (and therefore have the ability to get a custom ROM on your phone) is to use this GoldCard method.

thanks,,,that made things clear...so since I currently have the 7720 ROM on my phone and the last backup is of December 1 2011...is it safe to assume that its NODO or Pre_nodo ?? Cos if it is I might go ahead with it...for some reason Goldcard method looks more vulnerable to bricking the device...(opinion)

Well i guess it depends when your device was updated to NoDo. I think it came out early last year didn't it? Like March/April? So a December 2011 backup is likely a post-Nodo backup and therefore you won't be able to use it.

ok...I see....that means...goldcard method is the only hope !

I have a TMO w/5.10 BL and need to get the NoDo Rom for TMOUS w/BL 3.1.2250.0(119314). Unfortunately the link is for FileFactory and it moves like molasses and just times out. Anyone have another link for that ROM or know where a mirror might be? Thanks.

about your last question...
yes , there is a way to repair the device that has been bricked!
it's like flashing computer mainboard's bios , if it's not even loading it can be programmed again! but unfortunately i haven't been able to find see how they do it.
