Htc Touch HD Wm 6.5 - General Questions and Answers

Hi
i searched for hours but i didnt find something that could help me.
I have a Touch HD and i want to flash the Rom from 6.1 to 6.5, but this is my first WM Phone so i have absolutely no idea what i should do.
Could someone help me with simple steps?
thanks

Welcome at the forums!
With a quick google search, look what I found:
Custom ROM Upgrade for Dummies
Where instead of file #4 in the 'files you need to download' list, you need to download a 6.5 ROM from the 'Blackstone' forums.
Good luck!

thanks

<<HERE>> is where you will get everything from Radio's to Roms. But start <<HERE>> first and get your device protected using HDSP or USPL.

and use the wiki, it has a world of information, after all, if your going to flash your HD, its wise to understand what is actually happening..... good luck.

How do I update to Windows Mobile 6.1?!!

I'm so confused guys! I downloaded this ROM and am trying to get it installed on my phone. Can someone please give me a complete walkthrough on how to do this? Like step by step, everything I need to download, etc.?
I searched Google/these forums and didn't really find exact instructions. Is this the best ROM? Thanks in advance!
You have to install Hard-SPL first to be able to install this ROM.
Follow the instructions given here:

And then you can flash the 6.1 ROM using the SD card method.

Awesome, now running 6.1 on my Treo . Which 6.1 ROM do you guys think is the best? I used the one that I linked to in my first post which i found on these forums.
Also I dont need to flash the radio or anything do I? All I did in that Hard SPL thing was just the Hard SPL, not the radio unlocker and all that (what is that anyways?).
Also what's the deal with the SMS style in the WM6.1 cooked ROM? Font is huge lol. Everything else seems cool though.
Ok, so I didn't like that this ROM was missing SMS, battery, etc. so I updated to the other ROM listed on this forum that is basically a vanilla windows mobile 6. I love it, so fast and everything.
Which radio do you guys think is best/most stable/best service? I'm pretty sure I'm on 1.54.07 or something like that (I'll check once my Treo is done rebooting).
My TREO after flash to WM6.1 view in about FW 1.12c.00..... its O.K or No?

Updating my HTC Kaiser from Win 6.1 to 6.5

Sorry all but....
I am simply trying to find out how to flash my HTC TYTN II from Windows Mobile 6.1 to 6.5. The only thing I have sucessfully managed to do so far was to re-flash the orginal ROM the phone shipped with from the HTC web site. Is it a problem with my phone or is the HTC ROM update program user friendly in some way (looks identical!?) that no others here would seem not to be? I have read no end of programs that seem to need to be used or installed on the PC and\or phone but no clear set of end to end instructions when using the images from here!? I have tried 4 or 5 different ones and all lose connectivity as soon as the program starts to try and flash my phone. Fortunately pulling the battery and powering back up restores normal functionality. This leads to my final question please. Do HTC write user friendly ROM update software for their devices that work without anything else needed where no else seems to or am I missing something? If nothing else assuming I need to this manually could someone please point me to where I can finda full set of instructions please?
What other than updates that simply seem no to work on my phone am I missing soemthing. I am even more seriously considering the Nokia N97 now as Symbian updates are simple to apply and work out the box! Not like these nightmares it would seem!
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Paul L
Welcome to the forum
Have a read here, I´m sure it will help you

Good luck,
WM 6.5 has been announced but not officially released, so there is no HTC update. I don't know what you have been trying to download.
The only 6.5 roms available are cooked roms derived from leaked betas of WM 6.5 or roms derived from M$ development tools packages. So if you want an HTC/M$ 6.5 rom, you are out of luck, because it does not exist.
If you want to " unlock your phone and flash one of the many great custom 6.5 roms, then start here

Problems after flashing ROM Kaiser 130

Dear Community,
i´m a new user and an informatican but i´m a newbie in flashing smartphones. So i can´t understand the following Problem:
I have a HTC Kaiser 130 from German Provider T-Mobile. Because this wonderful WM 6.0 is so extrem slowly i decided to flash my ROM to new WM6.5. I went to this forum because here you have the best xda-developers ;-) so now to my problem: After flashing (and i was doing it by the newbie flash tutorial!) in each WM6.5 ROM version i found here for Kaiser, i have NO Sound on my device. And when i try to make a call the connection will be established but the speaker and the mic doesn´t work. so what have i done wrong? can anybody help me? i really really don´t want to use the original ROM :-( i´m a power user and i will throw it out of the window when i have to work with 6.0 T-Mobile Brand anymore :-D
so many thanks!
I guess you forgot to flash your radio rom.
Try 1.70.19.09 so it will work.
hmm... sometimes i ask my self: HAVE I EVER BEEN TO SCHOOL? Or why CANT i read sometimes^^
i think exactly that is the problem
thank you very much

Noob question

Hi first time poster.
I am the proud owner of a HTC touch pro 2.
Ive been reading on this site about the different roms eg Manila but goodness im so confused, im not really that tech pro. In my settings screen it says "TouchFlo 3D 2.1.38158.2", after some reading on this site it seems to me thats the manila version. is that right? if so how do i upgrade it so i can use the custom themes and skins.
Also i have windows 6.1 on my device atm. should/can i flash it? If so what is the recommended rom to put on (if thats the right way to put it)
Thanks in advance.

Welcome aboard
have a deep read here to learn hot to upgrade your ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
You can upgrade to wm6.5 if you want.
I can recommend Energy ROM´s
Leo= Manila 2.5 (slower for Rhodium)
Phoenix2= Manila 2.1 (better for Rhodium)
Good luck and enjoy!
thank you so much for your reply.
I just flashed my fone with hardspl but have yet to install a rom.
should i (do i have to) update my wm6.1 to wm6.5 to use the Energyroms?
i guess another way to put that question is, is it worth installing roms on my 6.1 or is it just simply better and wiser to upgrade to 6.5 and then flash a rom?
Give it a try!
Don´t be afraid, if you follow instructions all should be ok
And if you don´t like 6.5 you can always move it back easy!
thank you so much for your replies.
I cant seem to locat.e an upgrade rom for my fone and ive searched these and other forums like crazy, ive googled everything, been on the HTC website i just cant seem to locate it.
Rom version : 1.19.707.2 (51489)
Rom Date: 06/22/09
Radio Version: 3.55.25.27
Protocol Version: 61.25t.25.19U
Thats the infromation on my fone. i put up a thread in another forum and they just showed me the google link for the search and closed the thread. The search didnt help at all. Does anyone know where i can find the update FOR THIS.
Thank you so much
Do a search for Energy ROM´s
