downgrade wm6 to wm5!

Hy...I have a G4 model, Qtek s200, and i was wondering if I will install a wm6 version, and if I will not be satisfied, can i downgrade to wm5 back?

I think so... Even if have CID locked, but i'm not quite sure. Anyone correct me if i'm wrong please!!

Hi:
I have one HK 818pro G4 model and have tried wm6.0 and downgrade to wm5.0,
it's no problem.

Yeah, it's no problem to downgrade! I played yesterday with some different WM5 ROM's (Orange UK, Qtek and O2) on my G4 XDA Neo and had no prpoblems at all time!

up
so, i don't have to follow some specials steps...the normal way, no?

Yes, just follow the normal steps to do it. By the way, which WM6 rom you will try?! Looks like the smart1 clear it's good.

up
first of all: i want to install a wm6 version, but i don't know which one ... I have G4 model..can you give me an advice? also, i want without bugs if i can (that's the first reason that i didn't try yet)... i mean, to connect on wap, to work fine the new wm6...if you know what is the "perfect" version to install on my device, i am waiting your opinion

There is no "perfect" WM6 yet but the SMART1 WM6 Rom (clear) it's quite good... in this thread they talk about it and is litle bugs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=295225

I tried Smart1's WM6 ROM and successfully downgraded it to WM5 (I-mate) portuguese ROM by just using the normal procedure.
The problem is it doesn't work properly with Windows Vista. Don't try to upgrade to WM6 on Vista as it wont work properly!
Cheerz!

up
so your advice is to wait another version more reliable of wm6? i supouse that wm6 = win vista isn't it?

Just a question about downgrading - I read somewhere in the forum that it is important NOT to downgrade to a lower IPL or SPL because it will brick the device. is it so?

Hi,
Would like to know too how to downgrade without risking to brick my device...
I have a G4 that I upgraded to WM6 recently (SMART clear rom).
I liked WM6 but I have to remove it because it is only compatible with ActiveCrap 4.5, which doesn't support outlook 2000 anymore (version used at my office) .
my IPL/SPL : 2.10.0001
I would like to downgrade to last AKU 3.3 (couldn't backup my wm5 rom since my prophet is CID locked). Can I downgrade to AKU 3.3 safely?
Thank you very much

Yes, you can do it safely! My Neo is a G4 too and I switched often between smart1 clear WM6, the official O2 update, ASerg's 3.3.12 US nad the Qtek 2.20 with no problems!

If you read the package list you would see Anryl WM 6.5 ROM includes Manila2D and not the WM6.5 Interface. You arent running 2 Roms you just have the splash screen from your old Rom stuck on your new Rom. I would assume the Rom you flashed doesnt have a custom splash screen but im not sure as I have never used it and it doesnt say in the package list. Read *HERE* about the splash screen and how to change it.

Hi,
Please take some time to read up about ROM flashing on Windows mobile devices.
If you had done you would know that a NBH image file that you flash to your device has many parts. One of which is a Splash screen. All these parts are optional (you need one part of course).
If AthineOS had a splash in his NBH file but Anryl did not then the splash screen would not change between ROM flashes. This is the same for the Radio, if Chef A includes a radio, but Chef B does not then the radio won't change.
Follow mskips tool for flashing your splash screen and you'll be back to normal.
Thanks
Dave

okayy =) thanks guys, sounds better now! I was afraid to have screwed during my flashes and have two roms on my cell ahahha

That happened with me when I tried Abu's v15 & then tried Uto's 6.5 beta. But that doesn't mean you have two ROM's. Don't worry thats really doesn't make your device a small wonder either.

HTC ROM Update from HTC homepage or shipped ROM

Hi,
my mobile is a VDA V (Vodaphone) and I hate this ROM. I tried to get ROM-update from HTC homepage because I would like to have a german ROM. But Homepage told my S/N is wrong (?).
So I found the alternativ solution in VOX wiki (the shipped ROM german).
Can I use the ROMs for my VDA V, or is VDA different to normal VOX ???
I'm I little bit afraid due to the HTC homepage didn't know my S/N-number and that VDA V is not compatible.
regards Odiad

i have vpa v too
just uspl like normal vox and then chose the rom you want to use
htc roms are on xda ftp!

Hi Hashtowent,
I've just tried ROM from XDA ftp (ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Smartphone/Vox/ROMs/Shipped)
Started ROM-Update (exe-file), followed the instruction and update process started. But after 3% proecess stopped and with message update is not suitable for my device.
Other possibilities ? I would like to have a german ROM. I think all VOX-Forum-ROMs are not in German, isn't it?
odiad

problem solved
hi to all
reading helps, because I read "Vox Update SPL (USPL) 1.16". And with 1.16 I could install new ROM. Yeah - no more Vodafon-ROM !!!
So thanks to jockyw2001.
Regards Odiad

What did you not like in the Vodafone ROM? I still use that (tweaked though) simply because it does NOT vibrate on boot. I have the phone do a reboot every night at 3am and the vibrate would wake me up then...
The languages in the ROM are also better distributed in the Vodafone ROM, the HTC has just GER and ENG or WWE (without GER).
Basic Tweaking requires:
- new JAVA (JBED Rose)
- new Radio (latest)
- some little de-branding
