Newbie question for Kaiser:
is that possible to flash to WM6.1 latest ROM from this?:
WM6.0Pro version 5.2.1620
ROM: 1.82.721.1 WWE
Radio: 1.27.15.32
Thanks for your help!
no you can't...you have a special version which doesn't allow you to flash to any new rom.
seriously. read around. as long as you are CID unlock and you read instructions, you are fine.
Yes

Just make sure your phone is CID unlocked first, install HardSPL then you can flash to any ROM on here.
You will also need to flash to a 6.1 compatible radio otherwise you may get no sound.
Good luck.

OK, thank you! So that means must use all the time the same ROM.
So far I don't have any problem with that.

i guess you can't sense sarcasm on my last post. you can flash any rom you want, as you long as your phone is CID unlock. I'm assuming you haven't flashed any rom yet. Please read everything in the wiki to find out everything about your device. We get a lot of new people here, and we can't have newbies ask such simple questions when you can learn everything by reading the wiki. For my last post, I'm just joking. You can flash a WM6.1, but read the stickies and the wiki first before anything.

This is the new question I want to ask. (13 Aug 4.37pm London)
As mentioned in the Wizzard-wiki, there is no free way to unlock G4.
BUT !!!!! today, I just did an update (look at my signature). First of all flash the Radio and ExtRom. Then use aWizzard, enable Rapi (e),
UNLOCK CID (u) and last write new OS (w).
In the Unlock CID phase, I finally get something like "your device is successfully CID unlocked" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! does this mean that my G4 is unlocked and is it the same as we pay 20 pounds to use IMEI number to lock the CID (as mentioned in wiki)??????????????????????????????
The following is the original post.
I am using a CID locked O2 XDA Mini S. It took me about 6 minute to upgrade to TNT4.0, but after that the device rebooted. And then the old wm5 shows up...... (2.21.4.1)
what's going on here?????????????
Please read the wiki before you ask questions.

Hey, thanks for the reply. Maybe sorry for this naive question.
But I have been reading the wiki many times. Being a foreigner, I don't quite understand many terms and abbreviations in the wiki. After reading the describtion from the TNT 4.0, i know that it is safe to flash it to my O2 MiniS.
But I still don't know why it doesn't work. Here i want to ask 2 questions.
I have read the "how to flash ANY rom to a CID Locked device". 1 question I want to ask is that Any rom includes a rom like TNT4.0, right? I.E. I can flash TNT to my CID locked O2 MiniS, right?
2nd question is that, I noticed that many posts mentioned that they will need an official rom as the base. Where can I find any Official roms for the MiniS. are the following 3 the ONLY OFFICIAL roms for O2 Mini S? I apprecaite any help. Thank you.

You need to use the shell tool to flash to a G4 CID locked device - follow the instructions.

Does that mean that I can flash any rom to use the shell tool, like I can flash TNT4.0 or Faria etc. ?
The answer to EVERY Question and problem you are having is:
Unlock CID your device!
For Crist sake!
You CAN NOOOOOOOOOT put any rom in your device until you have done that, and no matter whatever anyone else says , just do it, and your problems will go away...
Some poeple just dont do what the instructions tell you to do, and then fill the forum with repeated issues...

Man, you scaried me. But there is a post saying that I can flash any rom without CID Unlock, right? Just don't have money to do the cid unlock.
dleeming is right.
According to your signature you have got a G4 model. Follow the instructions in the stickies about upgrade of a G4 model.....

Understand.
I just want to make sure that in theory I can flash to any roms according to thread "how to flash any rom with a cid locked"
As most of these ROM do not incl. IPL/SPL or the radio you may want to check whether your IPL/SPL and radio version work with the respective ROMs first.
If I remember correctly they require 2.x or higher IPL/SPL. But, check for yourself.
BTW what kind of Chinese support you are referring to?
The best I've used for Chinese support is CE-star specially made for WM6 release from the ppda forums. Penpower works like the transcriber for Chinese.
Monster Chinese, I have never gotten to work correctly. You can't uninstall it too.

Thanks mate. Now I've got my new signature. I can show this off to myself now hahahahaha
I forgot the name of the forum, but you can do a search on Leies edition of CE-star.
Idealy, I want to use the English OS system but with full Chinese support. e.g. I can install Chinese software, browse Chinese web-site etc.
But just now, I flashed a Chinese OS system. Quit happy with it now, though maybe later I will try to find a way to fullfill my ideal system above.

If you don't need to enter Chinese characters but just have your Wizard to show them, the easiest way would be to install a cab with the Chinese font set.
The cab is somewhere here on the forum...

Are you sure? I think this thing works similar as PC. Not only we need the font, but the encoding thing (like uni-code or something). Personally, I don't think your suggestion will work. If you find such thread, please do show it to me. It will be highly appreciated
Cheers
I am using it that way. Haven't check Chinese websites but chinese SMS and the menu of the SIM card are shown in HanZi.

Yes the fastest one way to figure this out again is to read the stickies labeled unlocking and UPGRADING. That is usually pretty helpful.

which DOC chip version you got,a G3 or G4 ? to verify post your IPL/SPL...? or download the WST Tool,install and run it and post the report to determine if it's a G3 or G4 device.You can download the WST tool here :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329170
If it's a G3,it's required to first CID unlock the device and than upgrade to wm6.

Hi all, i got installed HardSPL ver 1.x on my Tilt for use HTC and custom ROMs, but i got a question... what do version 3x of HardSPL? i can flash more ROMs? its better perfomarce 3.x than 1.x? i am a little lost in this aspect
1.x is primarily for the unlocking process, most to ALL Custom roms reccomend 3.29 these days, check with your chef.

not 3.56? i thought this was the newest and "best"...
I am using 3.56 and all works fine...
Did not noticed any difference between 3.29 and 3.56
3.29 SPL is extracted from the 3.29 Kaiser ROM, which until recently has been the latest official Kaiser ROM. (the 3.34 SPL from the newer 3.34 ROM has not been hacked)
3.56 SPL is extracted from the 3.56 Tilt ROM.
Anyway, you could all find these answers in the sticky SPL threads and not make *another* SPL thread.
"Anyway, you could all find these answers in the sticky SPL threads and not make *another* SPL thread."
Thats why i did this thread xD, i dont find or understand the other one xD thx for the replies, i got HTC WM 6.1 Spanish ROM with the hacked 1.X, so i can safely updated to a 3.x one? Regards!

But you could post this in the SPL sticky. I believe you understood enough to find it, didn't you.
To be constructive: it is recommended that you update to a 3.x SPL with a WM6.1 ROM.
It's as safe as any other flash, meaning that you can brick your device if you don't now what you're doing, but not more.

He Sure could have posted in the existing thread to get a clarification. In fact he should.
Thread Closed pursuant to the guidelines set forth in the Kaiser Section Announcement and the Forum Policies.
I just bougth a used ATT Tilt and it's SIM/CID unlocked and has HyperDragon IV installed on it.
My question is, as a noob, on the Tilt, do I flash a new rom as I would do on my Wizard?
When I flash a rom on my Wizard I usally flash the original T-Mobile WN 5.0 rom and then flash a new rom. Does this apply the same for the Tilt?, or is there a diferent procedure.
I usually don't post much here but I read a lot (Wizard Section).
Thanks, for clearing this up for me.

you should never have to do the first step again unless a major rom update (like an official Kaiser Windows Mobile 6.5 version comes out), and the Flashing a radio step is optional, because some radios get better reception/battery life than others. Look here for a list of radios:

Hi, I bought my hd2 and it was with a Greek Rom. I used goldcard (thanks to this forum) and changed to wwe. If I now want to upgrade rom to 1.66 or any new release will I be able to download normally or I will have to use goldcard every time to upgrade roms?
Thanks

As the Goldcard is a "temporary" solution which does not change the SPL on your phone (as HSPL would do), you have to use your Goldcard every time you want to flash an "official" ROM.
For further information, I do recommend the stickies here in the ROM forum.
thanks for the reply, what's HSPL ?
