You can install any rom to your device as long as:
a. Your device is unlocked (HSPL)
b. The rom you are trying to flash in meant for your device (don't change roms between CDMA and GSM phones)

If this is the rom that you are talking about:
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=250&act=sd&cat=2
Yes you can flash it. As long as you have hardspl on your phone, you can flash any Rhodium ( GSM ) rom you want.

yes exactly thats the rom,& but while downloading it,it asks for my serial number & when i enter my tilt2 serial number it gives me a message saying "this rom is not meant for ur device" & doesnt download,
but while i was finding a solution to this,i found a forum on wiki,which gave an other serial number to download official roms ( and again iam unable to post links as iam a junior member so below in red is wht exactly written on tht page)
Use this serial number HT95WLL03202 to download the official rom from htc.com if you have a branded Rhodium ie: Vodafone, O2,T-Mobile etc. If you have a branded Rhodium do not use your phone's serial number as HTC will not allow you to download because your operator wants you to get the rom update from them and not from HTC
so can i use that serial number & if yes then iam still left with my 1 unsolved question,regarding the keyboard layout at&t has,how to cope up wid it
P.S sorry if i asked many question & if its irritating

& also i live in india so on htc site for downloading rom which region shall i select asia1 or asia2, i have no idea wht differences it has

The reason that HTC requires a serial # is because if you do not have hardspl on your phone and you try to flash a rom not meant for your phone, you can brick it. So HTC tries to keep you from being able to even download it to begin with.
Most of the rom updates are all the same, whether you get it from the UK site or the Asian site. The difference is usually just branded operator stuff. So you can use that serial # to download that rom, or download thelatest official roms from here. WWE means world wide english. Just make sure that it is a GSM rom, Sprint or Verizon roms will harm your phone.
The AT$T keyboard fix, should fix your keyboard on a non AT$T rom. I have to ask however, how can you go back to a slow bloated official rom after using one of NRG's great custom roms ?

thanks alot for ur help,well the reason i want an official rom is tht i like the OEM look i mean the way,it says htc on the start up & the way windows phone comes up written after startup,i like that
but in the energy rom,theirs no htc written no,windows written,ill tell u hw an energy rom starts,it shows a black screan with energy rom written on it & then a blackish red screen with Energy written on it & then it starts,no htc logo & no windows logo thts wht i dont like,
& do mean tht the official rom (i mean the unbranded rom from htc) is slower than NRGZ, if that then i might keep the NRG rom
& thanks again for the help

The date is typically not posted on the page; the start of a thread usually lends a clue as to when the ROM released. The table is "loosely" organized by HTC ROM version and/or OS build.
This is the last ROM that HTC released:
HTC|RAPH100|HTC__001|5.05.405.1|1.11.25.01|52.58.25.30|20764|1.4.3 1.90
The thread about the ROM will sometimes include links to country specific versions.

HTC HD phonepad manilla problem

Guys,
I`ve installed some modified manilla on my HTC HD (got it from xda some thread don`t remember exactly) and now my phone pad keyboard got screwed in a minor but sick way.
The thing is that the voice/ video call button from left right got a text on it (Call Hi..)[exactly links to call history.]
i`ve trued factory default hard reset but the problem did not solved.
I really want that button to work as it was meant to, so i`m asking u any kind of help u can get.
i think some manilla from the original files was screwed.
The first option will be not to modify the original ROM.
curently using rom: 1.19.70.1 WWE from 11/24/2008
hey
its a fault of the original rom ur using, i had the same thing before i upgraded to official 1.56 rom, so if you wanna fix it i suggest you go to HTC site and download it. It also gives better gps performance etc.
Sorry but i can not upgrade from site.
Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
i get this by using my phone Sn.
any other way i can get the rom file?! The original upgraded one, no alteration with out interacting with htc.com

Hmm.. the versions for the ROM (2.27) and Radio (3.07.90) are quite old; in fact, over a year. Probably it's WM6.0, not 6.1. Strange.

Because it overwrites your IPL/SPL if you don't have Hard SPL, which may turn your device into a brick.

This goes straight to the HTC Support page instead. If you have the correct link then just upload it to Mediafire. Thanks.
However, since it's ROM verson 2.27 I doubt it is very much new. The latest one is 3.14, which was almost a year ago.
i got a valid HTC ELFIN serial number. been downloading in HTC.com for updates way back before i was using the Stock ROM and no idea about this xda-developers.com upgrading etc..

HTC diamond 2 - advice on flashing a ROM and retaining operator settings

Hi,
I have a Dutch HTC diamond 2 and would like to flash the ROM to get windows 6.1 to work in English. I have never done this and have a couple of small questions i hope you guys can help me with. I have read some guides and i think i understand what i need to do:
1. install hard-spl 2. find a ROM (i will use a signed one) and install 3. update radio ROM if required.
The only thing im concerned about is i read in some places that i will lose my phone operator and MMS settings in the process - (i am on the dutch vodafone network). Can someone please advise me what details i need to record before flashing the ROM or if there is a program that can do this for you as i want to be able to easily use my phone without going back to vodafone afterwords!
Finally i would appreciate advice on a good ROM to use and a good radio ROM if anyone has this.
Thanks in advance!
hi,
Check theis thread out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509708
Its here you find the anser relating to you model of phone.
As for the operator settings - these are easy to put back, if the ROM does not do it for you.
I think all ROMS asr great in there own right - so try one, and if this does not suit your needs then flash another.
Good luck

Hi Mobucl
Welcome to XDA
I have a Diamond 1 and can't give you exact Details, but i doubt your phone will stop working with vodaphone network after you flash, Have a look in the Topaz Forum, it's near the bottom of the page
Goodluck
Badwolve1
Thanks
Thanks R3PUBL1K and Badwolve1 for you're advice, i will have a look and give it a go.
If i have problems ill be sure to post again as my girlfriend already mentioned that she wouldn't be 'too happy' if i brick the phone

Need Bloatware remover & list for Att Htc Warhawk

Hello, was wondering if anyone here has a list of the bloatware and files to remove from the htc pure, and how to customize the start screen and get rid of unused programs?
This has been answered before, but for the start menu, use the file explorer (I think ATT put it in tools) then go to my device > windows > start menu > programs. From there you can add or delete items from the start menu
i understand that it has been answered before, i have been searching all the forums and still have not found an actual solution! Pointin me in the right direction with a link would be appreciated.
just flash a new rom

Flashing a ROM is a little more indepth than just finding it.
Read the flashing guide from the Wiki.
Start here.
HSPL must be first!
ice thanks, but i have been there and nothing states HTC Warhawk (Pure), everything says TD 2 or Topaz. Been searching for 2 days, I need a specific pure rom! I have flashed new roms before on the Samsung Blackjack II. just need specific instructions and rom files to do it!

They're all the same. Topaz = Pure = Warhawk = TD2
If you're looking for a stock ROM upgrade, you have to do it from HTCs site with your S/N.
If you want to flash a custom ROM, once you're HSPL'd you can flash any ROM in the Topaz forum.
cool m8, thanks! Now does it update the radio, or do i need to flash the radio to the newest version

Cooked ROMs may contain a radio but usually not. It would be denoted in the title of the ROM, i.e., WM6_5_23541_4.49.25.91_TOPAZ
There is also a radio thread where the radio ROMs have been posted separately in the Wiki.
I have tried a few Topaz radios but have not noticed the difference I've noticed with flashing radios on other devices.
ps, there have been issues with HSPL so if you aren't able to flash per the instructions in that thread, you will need to download the autoinstaller and "make a donation" for it to work. They have been fairly slow to respond to requests as well.
Bruce any recommendations on a rom, i hear Dutty is good but does he do Pure or Topaz? And how do i choose the best one out of the list givin?
