Changing the ROM of my kaiser...steps to success

Hi, first of all I tell you I'm new in this forum. Afterward I tell you that before posting this thread I read the different FAQs and guides posted hera and I search for my following question but I didn,t find any answer.
I want to change my original ROM that came with my phone but I have few things I want to know before beginning the process. These are:
1- Any ROM will work with my phone? I brought my phone from US and it was unblocked, so I can use it with any SIM from any company here, in Argentina.
The problem is that in the page where all the ROMs are described I don't find my ROM version. My ROM version is 1.82.707.0 WWE and the Radio Version is 1.27.15.32. The protocol version is 22.51.88.13W and the ROM date is 11/03/07. In the Model No it says "Kaiser". The most aproximate version I found in that page is 1.81.707.0 and the Radio associated with it is 1.27.12.11. What I want is to change my ROM to beging using WM6.1 cause the version of my WM is 6.0, but I don't know if I chose any of the ROM that are available or I have to take care of something I don't know.
2- Suposing I can chose any ROM available, is it convenient to use it with the radio that is associated with it or I have to continue using my radio version (1.27.15.32)?
3- If I change the ROM following all the steps that are described in other FAQs or threads, the phone will continue unblocked in order to be useable with any company or it will be blocked for a certain one, for example AT&T? Remember I am in Argentina.
4- How can I do to backup my current ROM and Radio so, if I have any problem I could restore it to my phone? It is supposed that if I do so (restoring the original ROM) the phone will operate as it's doing now, insn't it?
Well, that all for now.
Thanks a lot.
Guido.

My dear friend all the questions you ask have been asked many times and answered many times. I have a hard time believing when you say you have read everything .. because your post makes it obvious you haven't. Nonetheless i'll answer these questions here for you:

Yes "any kaiser rom" will work with your phone. But first you need to get Hardspl than you can flash any rom that is available here to your phone. Looks like you have a wm6 rom and wm6 radio. When you upgrade to wm6.1 you will need a wm6.1 radio. Most roms come with radios so you don't need to worry about this. If a rom doesn't have a radio the cook will specify that and most will often suggest which radios work best with their rom. To see a list of different radios available please check link in my sig for Alltheway's thread on radios.

i already answered this in my above answer. But to reiterate wm6 rom will work with a wm6 radio i.e what you already have; a wm6.1 rom WILL NEED a wm6.1 radio so it won't work with your current radio.

flashing a rom in no way changes the unlocked status of your phone.

umm okay you don't wana do this yourself as i don't think so you know how to. Most of the stock kaiser roms are available in the wiki and have links to download them. In the even that you want to return your phone back to its original rom you can download from kaiser wiki.
Secondly please do extensive reading... your post shows that you really haven't done your homework. A kaiser is a expensive piece of equipment and you definitely don't want to mess it up just because you were lazy and didn't want to first understand exactly what you were doing.
Having said that i wish you good luck and happy flashing.

Thesire...first of all I really appreciate your quick answers tomy questions. I have to confess I didn't think to get an answer so quickly.
Anyway, I have to tell you that I didn't write anywhere I had read "everything" as you say. Of course I didn't, all the time in the universe life would be enough to do it. But you can be sure I followed all the instructions that are posted to do before posting a new thread, and those include reading the FAQ of ROM Developing, seeing the charming video of "what to do before posting a new thread", search my questions, and I tell you I spent all the last thursday looking for any answer to my questions, but I didn,t find them. I am not saying that they are not, of course they may be, but I didn't find them. Perhaps, of course, it's almost sure is because I didn't know how to search. But I did it. I read about the different SPLs that I have to download, the different version of them I have to try if I have for ie. the blank display, etc.
Another thing, when you say that always I can have the posibility to restore my original ROM downloading it, I told that in the thread that appears all the ROMs my actual version is not there. So, I wonder where my ROM is comming from and who cooked it.
At last, but not for that less important, I want to really thank you for your and for the time you spent answering my questions. Just remember I'm a newbie and perhaps, someday I'll be answering a question from you in this theme or another, ie. communications!!! Also remember that for us, the people who don't have the english as our natural languaje, sometimes reading the posts can be a little difficult and can be reading something that is answering our question and don't actually realize it or don't understand it at all.
Thanks.
Guido.

Sorry to hear that you are having problems; however, you might not find help here since your device is not an HTC windows mobile device and there might not be many people familiar with your device. You might be better off returning it to the vendor for warranty repair or replacement.
You won't be able to upgrade to WM 6.1 as your device is not supported in this forum and if you flashed a WM 6.1 ROM for another device to yours you would likely brick your phone. There might not even be anyone here in this forum who could even tell you how to unlock your phone or even enter into bootloader. Contact the manufacturer of your device to see if they have official upgrades available.
Sorry that this might not be much help but most people here are only familiar with HTC Windows Mobile devices and other HTC made devices. I researched your device and it does not seem to be made by HTC. Good Luck

It seems that you have a settings problem. I would check with the carrier or the manufacturer.
As far as WM 6.1, you'll probably have to wait until either Spice releases an official update or until someone is able to port it. So far, hotrod101 is correct, I have searched a while and there doesn't seem to be much information regarding your phone (let alone development on it).
Good luck!

Thanx guys, for ur valuable time and help.

HTC diamond 2 - advice on flashing a ROM and retaining operator settings

Hi,
I have a Dutch HTC diamond 2 and would like to flash the ROM to get windows 6.1 to work in English. I have never done this and have a couple of small questions i hope you guys can help me with. I have read some guides and i think i understand what i need to do:
1. install hard-spl 2. find a ROM (i will use a signed one) and install 3. update radio ROM if required.
The only thing im concerned about is i read in some places that i will lose my phone operator and MMS settings in the process - (i am on the dutch vodafone network). Can someone please advise me what details i need to record before flashing the ROM or if there is a program that can do this for you as i want to be able to easily use my phone without going back to vodafone afterwords!
Finally i would appreciate advice on a good ROM to use and a good radio ROM if anyone has this.
Thanks in advance!

hi,
Check theis thread out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509708
Its here you find the anser relating to you model of phone.
As for the operator settings - these are easy to put back, if the ROM does not do it for you.
I think all ROMS asr great in there own right - so try one, and if this does not suit your needs then flash another.
Good luck

Hi Mobucl
Welcome to XDA
I have a Diamond 1 and can't give you exact Details, but i doubt your phone will stop working with vodaphone network after you flash, Have a look in the Topaz Forum, it's near the bottom of the page
Goodluck

If i have problems ill be sure to post again as my girlfriend already mentioned that she wouldn't be 'too happy' if i brick the phone

You will find a bunch of different roms for the Gene. Also, if you haven't done so yet, look at the stickies to learn how to unlock your device. You have to do it right, else you will brick the device. Do not flash a rom until you have unlocked it!!!!
Good luck!

thnx a lot for it

[Q] Is there any way to improve the accelerometer in a phone?

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum.
I was wondering if it's possible to increase the accelerometer speed in a phone? I have a Huawei u8100 from Wind Mobile in Canada.
Specs are:
Android 2.1 (as far as I know it is not upgradable to 2.2.)
clock speed of 528 MHz
I find the rotation on the phone to be quite slow compared to other models. Is there anything I can do to improve that? Just an fyi, I've never rooted a phone before and have no clue how to do it but I'm willing to learn if that's what it would take.
Thanks a lot

Welcome to forums
On my experience cooked ROM´s made by great Chefs @ XDA have always presented much better ROM´s than the "original" ones, so I would try to root my device and try any of them (not sure if your device is covered in here)
Also you can see if there is any over clocking tool for your model.
Good luck,

I think that comes inbuilt and cant be changed, but hey i coudl be wrong

Your device is not covered in XDA sadly

Ahh ok, thanks anyway.
Does anyone know if changing the ROM would even help, assuming I was able to find a new ROM on another site? Or is it a hardware issue and not something I can improve?
Thanks!
