Read, read, read, and then read some more.

yea i learned how to flash but where do i get the actual wm6 rom file? thanks

You find all answer to your question right here at FTP site!
ftp.xda-developers.com
So, connect there and spend a little time digging what you want! There're HTML files pointing directly to some sites keeping WM6 roms...
Just read as already said above!
Reading is still the best thing to do
Good luck!

Just go to the individual threads for each WM6 build. There are links on the first page of each one. READ!!!!! (please)

i got faria's wm6 rom and tried to install. everything went fine....or so i thought. when i reset it it boots up HTC and then geos straight to the bootloader screen. no matter how many hord/soft resets i do, it always does the same thing. what should i do now? thanks

If you have the bootloader up, you have access to your 8125 via the USB cable. Download the original 8125 ROM and re-flash it. The Cingular ROM is available from quite a few locations - a quick search should get you that ROM. You can also visit the HTC website and download the Cingular ROM. That'll put your 8125 back to the original configuration. Do this quickly, since right now your 8125 is not charging at all - soon your battery will be dead.
Instead of starting a new thread, you should post your "how do I do this" question in the applicable Faria thread.

Yes you battary will have to be 50% or more to flash your phone with the cingular roms. FYI

Place for Newbs to get Started-Want Tilt to Look Like Touch

Any advice? I am new to this whole thing. Have done some overclocking and what not on my PC, but this is a whole different game.
What types of things can I do without risking really f'ing things up?
What I hope is the simplest things I was hoping to do was to make my TILT screen look like the HTC Touch.
I thought about downloading Dutty's tweaks, but I am thinking I might be out of my depth starting out.
I would like to learn some things, but don't want to annoy the veterans that are here. Any direction would be appreciated.
Thank you.

What you could do is read, all the post people have put to do exactly what your asking. All the info is there you just need to search and read or use the wiki.
Have fun

Thank you.

Download and run HardSPL on your phone from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
Then choose a dutty rom to install, since you are on a tilt try:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345385&highlight=dutty+tilt
This is all you have to do to have a fully functional htc looking rom with the touchflo cube with the newest drivers and radio for AT&T. I am using this one on mine right now. This rom has everything that you will probably need already installed. Anything else will just be for personal preferences. This rom has an advanced config program which is great but also download kaisertweak for some nice settings.

Thanks for keeping it simple for the newb. I read a couple of things about the "radio" portion being an issue. What does the "radio" tweak mean and will a HARD RESET fix problems if I decide to revert back?

The radio that comes with this rom will be the one you need. A hard reset only reinstalls the rom you currently have on the phone so to revert back you will have to choose another rom and install it. As long as the rom you install is an AT&T one or one made for the tilt then you won't have to do anything with the radio. If you change and use an HTC ship rom or one of dutty's other roms then you will have to download another radio and install it. Radios self install the same way as roms do.
This is the wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser
On this page is the link to the ftp area where you could download the older radio if you decided to go to a non tilt rom.

Did you have any keyboard problems when doing the HARDSPL and installing the dutty rom. Also, which of the dutty roms did you install? Beta 2?

I am still on the Beta 1 and have been too lazy to changeover yet as Beta 1 is solid.
If you really want a good "How To" check out Mr. Van X:

Every place he says "Hermes" you just think "Kaiser" or "Tilt". All the steps are the same. It is a great walk-through. He has you download the .net framework first. I know I didn't have it. Then he steps you through hardSPL and finally the ROM.
A few weeks ago I followed this exactly and have never had any troubles. Why a walk-through like this is not in the Wiki for the Kaiser/Tilt I have no idea. It'd be a lot more helpful to newbs (like myself) than the forum fav response, "Read Dammit".

Why don't you write an entry for the wiki? That's how the Wiki is updated and maintained, by contributions by everyone.

I just used HardSPL and Dutty's Hybrid Rom No 5. I'm not sure what the difference is from his Tilt Beta version but I tried both and decided to go with the Hybrid. Point is, until last night I did not know what a Rom was. I read the forum and followed the directions. Here are links to what I used.
HardSPL (you need to do this first). Everything you need to know is in the first post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
Then find a ROM. I downloaded several including the stock ATT rom just in case I decided to go back. The steps for loading a ROM are almost the same as HardSPL, just follow the directions on the screen.
This is a link to Dutty's Tilt Beta ROM (all you need is the link to the ROM at the bottom of the first post). If you want to try Dutty's Hybrid ROM, scroll to the 3rd post made by username "alltheway" and click on the red Hybrid No 5 Rom link in his signature block.

It is very simple to do.

Do I need to SIM Unlock?
I have been reading through the posts, and I can't find if I must SIM lock my phone before trying to install Dutty's ROM. On my 8125 the general concensus was unlock both. I don't have any need to run other radio's on my phone, and I won't be traveling out of the US.
Also I am currently running SPB Pocket Plus 4.01. Should I do a hard reset before trying to CID unlock and load of new rom?

duttys dual touch rom v2

hi all what happens if the rom installation goes wrong??
i am going to use duttys dual touch rom v2.

if you follow the simple guides floating around in the forums you cant really go wrong. Remember once the rom has installed to do a hard reset to get duttys rom working at its best.

You could brick your phone.

If I remember correctly there was a thread which discussed devices that would not flash even though all of the instructions were followed. I think it had something to do with devices that had a certain date stamp on it.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. I did a quick search on the forum titles but didn't see anything that rang any bells.

Dont worry yourself over nothing
Just follow the very simple steps as mentioned above. Been flashing for a couple years now and as long as you install the hard spl and follow the steps I see very little that can go wrong. Plus you really dont need to start new threads for a question, just ask in the existing thread or do a bit of research but like I said I wouldn't worry about it.

Make sure you install Hard-SPL first, then just follow the guides in this forum and you should be fine.

go for it bro would be very nice but the closest is dutty,s rom which is winderfull

Which SPL
Hi, I have researched a fair bit on flashing roms, and I am very newbie so please be easy. I just got a ATT Tilt and realize you have to flash Hard-SPL then dutty's rom correct? But which Hard-SPL do I use. I see there are different versions, is there any difference and will tehy all work? Thanks guys.

Use this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679.
It is working well on my Tilt . Just read the instructions carefully and almost* nothing can go wrong. Then flash the ROM of your choice.
*never say never ;-)

Touch Pro 2 Flashing

Hello there. So I have been reading on how to flash a Touch Pro 2.
The Version I have is the Unlocked T7373. Serial # HT96xxxxxxxxx
I have downloaded HardSPL from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550131
The ROM I intend to use is here - http://htcpedia.com/ruu_rhodium_s_htc_europe_wm65/soft/htc-rhodium-rom.html?page=1
My question is will this version of Hard SPL work with my phone. And after I flash it all I have to do is sync the phone with my desktop and run the rom update ?
I saw a guy brick his phone here so I dont want to do that. Thanks in advance.

As long as your phone is GSM and not CDMA that is the Hardspl.
Just read and follow these steps and you will not brick your phone . mskip is the man when it comes to handholding noobs during their first flash. Just follow the steps and the links and happy flashing
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540

Did the flash in 5 mins and worked
Much thanks for your advice man. The flash worked. Now my question is if i flash a wrong rom or cooked rom will it briick the phone. Can you give me a link to download a cooked rom? My phone is GSM. T7373. People post cooked roms but they dont post the exact version of the rom or for what phone it is for. Thanks again.

Once your phone is Hardspl'd it is near impossible to" brick it ".
Only flash roms from the rom development section in the Rhodium forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=490
All roms are posted in the phone forums they are meant for.
The Energy rom series is definitely the most popular, but twopumpchump is my favorite chef. Now that you are Hardspl'd try one or try them all until you decide for yourself which one you like best. Flash, live with it for a couple of days and then flash another. it will not hurt your phone. I have flashed mine hundreds of times.

I will try the Energy Rom
Will give it ago with the flavors you suggested. Thanks.

question

ive searched and havent really found anything on this but i was wondering if you can flash a fuze on a vista 64bit laptop and another question. I downloaded a rom it was called "Energy.RAPHAEL.23557.Sense2.5.Cookie.HomeTab.Apr.14" i was wondering if i have to flash a radio after i flash that rom or is it an all in one rom any help will be much appreatied thanks

For the first question, yes. I've Flashed ROMs using Vista x64 and Win7 x64. No issues yet-to-date.
For the second question, be safe. Flash the new Radio BEFORE you flash the Energy ROM.

thank you for the replay ive read the radios form but im still not sure which ones will work for a fuze could you please tell me a radio that will work

Do yourself and us some favor:
Read this thread at least the first few posts
Know if your phone is hardSPL'd or not
Know how to backup and restore your contacts
ROM and Radio are independent, almost all ROMs come WITHOUT Radio so a new ROM wont override your Radio and vice versa
Stay with a 21xxx ROM in the beginning
If the flash with your vista PC doesn't work, flash from SD card (use search to find out how - hint: read what I linked already).
Raphael and Cingular Radios will work on the Fuze B U T none of the Blackstone, Quartz and Xperia will for them you'll need hardSPL AND a CID unlocked phone!!!
I H I G H L Y suggest hardSPL prior trying to flash ANY ROM here in the forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im pretty sure my phone is already hardslp it was already flashed to a energy rom when i bought it thank you for the reply

Cool that saves you some reading.
What's left is a good Radio rilphone combo (try 14.25.05 Radio) and a ROM you like. As said I'd start with a 21xxx based one (either Sense 2.1 or 2.5). There are plenty around.

Thank you I think I got all the information I need except on the back up program to use I have sprite backup but I've read that some people have problems with that is there any better ones to use and if I back up my phone cuz I use the backup on the rom I flash to?

It depends on what data/information you wish to keep.
If you wish to keep your Contacts, Calender Entries, Texts, Pictures, etc.. Use Microsofts' MyPhone Service. *Recommended*
If you wish to keep all of the above + installed Apps, & Registry Settings, I'd suggest checking out SPB Backup. *Not Recommended :: Registry Conflicts may Occur*

ok so i think i got all the info i need im going to try to flash my phone now im not going to do a hardspl cuz it was flashed to an energy rom when i bought it

Sounds good. Hope all goes well.
Be sure to reply with updates.. or if you need any further assistance.

everything went great! happy with my new rom had no problems flashing at all thanks everyones for your help!

Glad we could help you.
