Orange Branded Kaiser to Official HTC Rom

I am getting an Orange branded Kaiser next week and will want to revert it to the official HTC Rom, I have never done anything like this so am a bit green. I have downloaded the file RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.rar
Can any one tell me if this is the official English version of the HTC rom and also is all I have to is follow the idiots guide in the other thread on this forum.

I'd recommend you ask orange for the sim unlock code before attempting this.
Unless you're happy to flash your phone and be unable to use *any* (including oranges) sim in it.

is it the same for T-Mobile? Had a HTC TYTN and now a T-Mobile Vario III and prefer to have the HTC rom because I cannot get the Windos live to auto sync / as messages arrive post a SR ever

Your fine to upgrade as long as you don't touch the radio portion of the Rom.
HardSPL your phone, then decompile the HTC rom and create a new rom using only the OS portion. then install using Pofs custome RUU installer.
Cheers

I held back on changing my Orange UK ROM for the same sim-lock reasons. However I simply used HardSPL first & then flashed my phone with the Sleuth ROM as it doesn't touch the radio & therefore bypasses the sim-lock issue.
Am now very happy and de-oranged.

Apologies in advances for the noobness of this question. I have an Orange Tytn II and would like to use it on O2. I've been using the phone for calls, so it's unlocked. I've got Internet settings for the O2 Stellar from O2 and entered them but it still won't connect making it rather useless to me.
From reading it seems to by because the radio is locked to Orange? CID locked? is that right?
I've successfully run the HardSPL, which I understand will now enable me to install other ROMs. What I'm not clear on is if I do this if I will permanently SIMlock the Orange phone or if the HardSPL gets round this problem and I'll be safe to put on another ROM and so letting me get online and 'deOrangig the phone'.
I've read that I can put on a ROM as long as it doens't touch the radio. But does this releveant only if you want to stay on Orange? Will it let you use another network SIM? And which ROM would that be anyway.
Bit confused as you can see. Any help appreciated.

How to flash Fuze for warranty purposes?

Hey, I just got my Fuze yesterday, and I'm loving it. I just have a question that I couldn't seem to find by the search.
How would I go about returning the Fuze to the stock SPL after flashing it to HardSPL? I'm asking just incase I need to return it. Would I just flash the default AT&T ROM to restore everything? Or does more have to be done? AKA Do the directions in the Hard-SPL thread apply to the Fuze?
Sorry if this is a dumb question--it's been a while since I've owned a WM phone. (Wizard to be exact =])

NVM Found the answer.
Here for those that want to know:
No need to have the SPL 1.95...I had to exchange my Fuze today because of a problem with buttons...
Just follow the steps on the front page and then afterwards reflash the stock att rom(the one with SPL 1.95)...it will flash SPL 1.95 with it
confirm by going into bootloader

what front page? i want to reflash to oem to exchange for a new fuze

hard spl has overwrite protection. you will have to flash the unsigned spl to overwrite ti (just search for "stock spl"). However, my question is, if you flash the stock rom, do you have to go thru flashing the original spl as well or the hard spl will work with the stock rom as well?
thank you all!

ROM Upgrade + Warranty Question

Friends,
So far I have had no problems flasing hardspl and chef roms. I know this is a stupid question but I would imagine this would void the warranty of the device with my at&t provider?
I have my own personal insurance on the device (not with at&t). But what if I start experiencing problems with the device. Would there be a way to revert back to the custom rom and change the hardspl?
Please advise.
tvos

just find the att stock rom on this forum..not sure where it is as i havent looked through the roms as i dont own a fuze but have been active in the forum because i plan on getting one SOON..and for hardspl..dont know about ehre but like in the kaiser forum they have att stock spl and you revert back by using a SSPL (Software SPL) that is in EXE format and you open it in the file manager and it loads up the bootloader and then you flash the old SPL from there because you cant load a SPL from the normal bootloader because SPL IS YOUR BOOTLOADER so just look for those or wait for someone to post the needed files (you can find the att stock rom for sure) but in actuality alot of people have gotten away without reverting the SPL (i havent heard of anyone getting charged for voiding the warranty) but if you want to be safe you can always go down to a DSC (Device Spport Center) (http://www.wireless.att.com/answer-center/main.jsp?t=solutionTab&solutionId=KB91429 for a list of DSC's) and once they swap it your home free and they have never checked the bootloader for me (well everytime ive broughten it in it was stuck in bootloader but they never examined the screen) so yah thats my 2 cents ;-)

ive exchanged multiple tilts with warranty exchange, and never had an issue with the hardspl. i would always flash the stock rom back on though

ATT Htc Fuze

I want to know what my phone should look, so that I can change it back in for a warrenty.
And is there a video out to show how to STOCK SPL - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY.
Can you please provide all the information that is needed so that I will not be charge or mess over my contract. Thanks.

If you have HARDSPL installed then your boot screen shows 1.90olinex if you are at STOCK SPL then it shows 1.90.
Before I returned my phone I flashed the HTC ATT ROM that includes radio, then I flashed it with STOCK SPL to return my bootloader from 1.90olinex to 1.90.
That is as much info as I can give you without doing searches of the forum. I think you can handle a few searches from here. Just look for Stock SPL and use the Wiki.

Warranty??

Hey,
I am going to send my phone back to the warranty service because i have a very poor Wifi reception and dust under the screen...
But i have a custom ROM installed..
Do i need to instal a original HTC ROM??
And how do i unistal Hard-SPL??

I think you have to go back to original ROM, perhaps you can find it in the Wiki here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Topaz
Or in Topaz section

I allready have a rom from the HTC.com website, official
But how do i unistall Hard-SPL??

If you read the link I posted above, there is a section on how to hardspl
Extracted: NOTE 2: this is unsigned Hard-SPL. no limitations on flashing ROMs. also, this has overwrite protection against HTC RUU's overwriting HSPL with a stock one, so if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty reasons, a stock SPL downgrade package is posted here below. use this relocker *only* if you need to return the phone for warranty, and only use it as last step - after reflashing stock OS and radio. see steps at the end of this post about how to reflash stock SPL.
