Hi, I'm new to updating ROM's....
I want to update my S710 from its original ROM version 1.15.405.2 to the one i found on the site: RUU_Vox_HTC_WWE_1.34.405.1_4.1.13.54_03.10.90_Ship.
My radio version is 4.1.13.37_02.83.90. Can I use this update on my phone or not? Does the radio version's need to match?
Thanks

You should have no problem using this ROM to update your S710 as I used that ROM for a short while when it first came out, I then moved oveer to Dr. Gonzo's New Guava ROM, and I am now using his WM6.1 ROM, been using it since his first test ROM came out and I am now using his latest WM6.1 v1.0a ROM.
Roland
Roland, simple question. What is the advantage of upgrading ROM's? Newer features? Faster software? Just curious I guess. I just got my 710 and wondering whats the buzz with all this rom and 6.1 stuff. Thanks!

To have the latest on your Vox offcourse.
Just like Rolandh I have updated my Vox with the WM6.1 rom from Doc. Gonzo.
And the new features and the increased stability are great.
Futher more I noticed the response of the software in some areas is better.
So all pro's and little con's.

The official HTC WM6 Update added a Network Setup Wizard and Office 6.1 to the ROM. Dr. Gonzo's WM6.1 adds Threaded SMS, New Internet Explorer Mobile with the ability to set your own Homepage, a better Home/Today Screen and some extra apps that Dr. G has added and is more responsive and a little bit more stable than WM6, and as Chongie says to have the lates version of WM on you Vox aswell.
Roland
Having only added Gregory's HTC plugin to this phone, if I wanted to add Dr. G's WM6.1, what is the proper way to do so? Is there some precautions I need to take first?
Not much precautions
Hi,
There is not much precautions to take, apart from taking backup of your contacts, that is and making sure that there is battery backup to your PC, so that the update process is not interrupted. Because once you update the ROM, all your data will be erased. Its like formatting your hard disk drive. If your vox is network locked (mine was not) then you need to unlock the phone first. If you download Dr G's latest ROM, then you will find out how to do it (there is a step by step guide that comes with it).
Honestly, if you followed the guide, there is hardly any chance of screwing up. And once you start using the 6.1 ROM, you will surely wonder how the hell could you ever have used the original ROM that came with HTC Vox
Wow, appreciate the awesome explanation! Thanks! As far as locked or unlocked, I'm assuming its unlocked. Bought it off Ebay, stuck my sim card from t-mobile in it, turned it on and worked like a charm! Have heard the term "bricking" phone, which i'm assuming means locking it up, correct? Since I wasnt the original owner, are there certain "codes" or info off the phone i need to get first? You know, like some software info or phone specific info?
Thanks again and am looking forward to upgrading this slow pig that wont update windows!
Off to back up contacts now, lol...............
xda rocks
n all the members are really helpful too

if you want update with official rom go to ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Smartphone/Vox/ROMs/Shipped/
or at http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Vox
if custom rom look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Vox_roms
Hi guys,
as you can see im new here and new to the the rom side of things. I bought a T-Mobile MDA Compavt IV and its really slow. Iv heard that you can do a rom upgrade. Can someone please help me with the following:
1. is there a step by step to how to update rom? or can some1 make me one
2. what rom and where can i down load this and also the radio.
3. can i back my phone up i.e files, applications themes etc i have at the moment.
4. what is a hard spl and do i need it.
if someone has the original rom from htc please can they share it with me. Im sorry for all the questions but im really new to this and thing that the HTC is a great phone but would love it if its faster.
THANKS!!!!!!!
You should really direct this to the HTC Device that you own as each device has it's own process when a flashing a Cooked ROM.
Example: If you have a diamond, go to the Diamond thread and begin reading the stickies and the Wiki.
Hello there.
I'm a totally new as for modifying PDAs, and I've been reading the Topaz forums, since I recently got one of those, but I find it really hard to understand the needed steps to upgrade it.
I read about how good the Nataly ROM is, but I know nothing about how to install it. My questions are:
It mentions Windows Mobile v6.5, but my PDA came with v6.1. How can I upgrade it?
What does it mean "manila"? I've seen it mentioned with different versions.
Is there a difference between Nataly's and a radio ROM? Can I use them simultaneously?
Do I need to do anything special to upgrade to these ROMs? I think my phone is SIM unlocked already.
My GSM provider is TIGO, in Colombia.
Thank you very much for your support, and I hope I don't get hated for these questions.
1. to flash a cooked rom u need to hardspl unlock which u can find here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312
for more information go to topaz rom development section
2. manila is the graphical thing with the slider on the bottom
the latest manila is 2.1 and in the new official rom on htc.com
theres another version called sense and available only in cooked roms
3. about the radios: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547276
4. there is no need to sim unlock the phone. u need to flash the hard-spl of olinex (1.83 version )
nobody gets hated for questions just for the laziness of not using the search function
here u can find everything about topaz http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=478
I am new to all this, i just got my Hd about a week ago i already have a rom downloaded i was just wondering what software i need to download to install it and wm6.5 Thanks

Please check out the blackstone wiki and read before you flash so you understand the process, you dont want to turn your hd into a nice black shiney doorstop right?

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
