I bought from Australia with ROM update to a Generic?? WM6.1 ROM and TOMTOM GPS. Was fine but died, would turn-off when answer call and you could not turn on the display again wait reset and then would seem OK. Tried reverting to the Telstra again - same issue. HTC repaired hardware under Warranty-but Telstra again and TOM wont work - new IMEI now??
This took a long time so picked up an AT&T HTC Pure but I would rather use the T8582 and Flash to WM6.5 So now the questions:
1. The "threads" don't seem to say T8582 or T8282 - just Touch HD. So is this because as far as the ROM is concerned it doesn't matter??? - Just a radio issue. Also in the Dutty threads it would seem that he has a version that is based on and HD2 ROM LEO, but for the HD. OR do I mis-understand?
2. Can USPL be installed from the sd card like the new ROM or along with the new ROM to avoid the loss on the Reset of the USPL at the end of the first step ?. The HD has the 1.54.0000 spl now - I have new laptop and it is WIN7 - doesn't use ActiveSync - got it to work with PURE but would like NOT to play with this until Touch HD is re-flashed and all OK - I want to stay with the USPL for now as I don't know that HTC has fully fixed the problem yet and it might have to go back again.
3. I thought about going to HD2 but don't want to give up stylus for some applications - like SuperCalender. Has some very small ICONs to click.
4. Pure touch screen operation is far smoother then the HD. Is this a hardware issue or a function of 6.1 versus 6.5 windows.
5. I like the PURE Voice commands so would prefer a new rom with the same MSVC??? installed or a .cab to upgrade.
6. Want a stable 6.5 ROM as I likely will only do this once. I hope.
As mentioned in one thread - I have done extensive reading here, but due to the warranty issue I want to be very carefull. I would like to do ALL from the Flash Card before work on usb connect to WIN7.
I am on the road for next three weeks with the two phones and laptop.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello all,
A simple question.
How can one tell what kind of a unit he has, is it WWE or is it ASIA or maybe another, I have bought my unit 2nd hand and since then had problems with the softwares and radio roms.
I have used WWE rom, and I just can not get all my contacts in, I have used ASIA and for a few days all was working fine, till something happens I reset the unit and either data is lost or the radio has no signal etc.
Another question, is it possible to stop the Automatic Customization after a hard reset???
Your help would be much appreciated.
WWE or Asia depends on installed ROM. Type can be Polaris 100 or Polaris 200, AFAIK, and is visible during hard reset.
What ROM are you using now? Looks like trouble with ROM or bad device.
Customization can be stopped, if I remember correctly, but you should check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355277&highlight=Polaris+tips+tricks
Hi,
Many thanks.
For the moment I am using a cooked rom Khanx 1.6 Pro.
I was really fed up with the Original Rom as I said it was fine for a few days, working smoothly, even backups by SPB were fine, and suddenly one day the unit froze and I had to reset after the rest nothing worked, all data lost.
Even after Hardreseting I was having problems with 'VDDemon' each time, only after re-installing the rom for a few times I was able to go back to working with it.
I mainly use the unit for telephone (ofcourse), mail, notes and sms.
By the way when I enter bootloader, I can see POLA100 MFG, and the SPL-2.20.Olinex, CPLD-2.
And what I meant about the Automatic ..., when you hard reset the unit you get a windows saying that in 3 seconds and automatic instal is beginning, how can one stop this instal????????
So really I am not even having fun with it at all.
OK, Pola 100 is here too, but SPL is original HTC.
Could you try device for few days with "bare" ROM, meaning no other software installed? Maybe it's software incompatibility.
For stoping customization check thread I mentioned, think it's described there. But I might be wrong, it could be some another thread. In any case, I remember reading about it here and a way how it can be stopped.
My Polaris is stable as stable Windows device can be...

Dears,
I have been using my HTC P3600 Trinity for 2 years, last 1.5 years, I am using with ROM: 31XiTNY-STD.
I was not happy of the memory and decided to use another ROM and problems started.
After flashing different ROMs such as 31XiTNY-SXY, FInixNOver v3.7.2 - M2D, allmost all, etc. everyting go well at the beginning and suddenly (eg: changing some contact info, or adding picture to a contact or afrte new software) it bloked itself. Even soft reset can not be a solution, it stay at the first screen (I can not see windows again). The only solution that I found is flashing a new ROM but after few program installation it happens again and again.
Can it be a hardware problem or have you faced such a problem before,
Please help, I do not want to use my Nokia 6310i again
If it can be a hardware problem, any idea about repairment.
Best regards from Istanbul.
Hello.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask about this, but i'll just give it a try.
Recently my diamond started acting weird. Suddently some data wasn't there (Like contacts), and then after some time the phone freezes. Then i reeboot the phone by pressing the Reset button in the back, and then when it boots again, it is trying to make the firstboot screen again, but it cannot configure again because there is no more space for that. :S
Then i Re-flash the phone, and it works for like 3 hours and then Does the above again.
Anyone know what this can be, and if i can correct it?? I think it is some sort of hardware thing, but hope you guys know better
I know how to flash and some other things, but see me as a newbie (no fancy Words pleace )
Phone:
Diamond GSM 100
Rom: GEN Y DX2
Hard-SPL 4 Olinex
Radio: 1.11.25.01
Hi
I don't know if your problem is similar to the I had, where my phone would freeze at a random point and resetting was the only option. After the reset the phone would delete everything on the main memory (including messages and contacts). After a month with reflashing different roms, I think I kind found a solution that I hope also works out for you:
1. Download the original stock rom from HTC:
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=483
2 Install it by following this guide:
The DEFINITIVE MTTY Thread!! - Diamond Edition
by MysticGenius. (The method basically deletes everything and gives you kind of a fresh start)
3Now everything should hopefully be working smoothly and you are free to reflash it with your favourite rom
Good luck (^.^)
Two days ago I was forced to do HR and installing everything from the beginning (including a program S2U2). Previously this program had a perfect set up there that everything worked as it should. Unfortunately, after HR had to set options from scratch since it abolished the settings file.
And here the problems begin ... see if I have locked the phone S2U2 program and comes to me is a combination of:
first screen (turns and shows the caller's picture) inform me of this after about 3-5 seconds
second ring with the vibration is also included in the time (despite setting a ringtone + vibration)
thirdly, when I answer a call by sliding it all hangs ... slider is not working, the game is still ringing, vibration "beeps", the keys to lock the phone (along with the key with a green handset). Only one I can turn off the phone by removing the battery.
And what is strange when you restart your phone, such a combination is not recorded in the history of the device (as if it was not at all).
What can I do about this? Do you have any solution?
PS. Just please do not force me to re-HR (the latter has already resulted in almost two days removed from the life of uploading and installing everything back on the phone)
After several hours of testing anything new did not work.
And I tried off the SENSE (on a clean windows), enabled SENSE but uninstall S2U2 still the same: when I receive a call the screen locks up and I can not in any way to answer this connection (shown a picture of the caller and a ringtone that lasts indefinitely until the remove the battery) ... Sometimes when I set S2U2 slider can receive and answer the call even talk during conversations, but everything is blocked and only helps to remove the battery.
I also noticed that it stopped working light sensor which is not to extinguish the screen ...
OS: 5.2.21869
Manila: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.48.479.1 WWE
Radio: 2.05.51.05_2
are you still on official 1.48 rom? i suggest you to upgrade to a newer rom and, if you go for a custom rom, make a task 29 before that. I think there is not better option, sorry. btw, it is only my opinion. good luck.
You think so?
Previously (before HR) also had the same ROM, the same programs installed and everything worked well.
Or is it a problem or some settings SENSE software like S2U2, BSB Tweaks, XT Hacks2 etc. ...??
Well, but if only to help it load a new ROM to install the new Windows wchciałbym 6.5.x, the new ROM, the new SENSE etc ...
Can you describe the order in which what can I do?

are you using xt hacks2? leave that program, it may be the cause of your problems. still, you need to upgrade
i cannot guide you step by step as i'm not so good in english, anyway, if you go for custom rom first you have to HSPL your device
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
then you have to choose your rom, there are plenty out there, in the end you have to flash, it's not that complicated believe me, you will need 15 minute to do all these things. if you never flashed your phone you don't even need to perform a task 29 right now, just remember to do hard reset after you flashed the rom.
flash rom, radio, hspl are all done with same operations: plug phone to pc with activesync, launch exe files, wait
Ok I understand.
But in what order do I install it?
First install the ROM, next RADIO , then WINDOWS 6.5.3 (I have Windows 6.5) and HSPL?

windows mobile is already included in rom
1) HSPL
2) RAdio, this step depends on what custom rom you pick, there are custom rom with radio included, others without the radio (in this case you have to install suggested radio), see the rom thread for more informations
2) Flash rom
3) hard reset
take a look here, there is a tutorial for noobs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
easier way? install a stock rom 1.66, you don't have to HSPL and worry about which radio choose, it is all included
my GF has the same prob on her HTC mega (touch 2)!
on mine HD2, all works fine....
So I recently went to vzw to check if my warranty would cover unresponsive buttons and it does, so they sent me a replacement ozone in the mail. I checked the multicolored screen and saw spl 0.44 and remembered that it couldnt be flashed to hardspl. So I said to myself, "ok, stock windows mobile 6.5 on the ozone can't be so bad" and booted it up. OMG I got used to the 3vo rom sooo much that the phone is crippled with the stock rom. So I want to send the replacement they sent me right back to them and just say f-ck it!! I would rather live with the phone the way it is now.
My question is.... Can I flash a Hardspl to it? has anyone tried and if so did it work. Is there going to be a Hardspl 0.44? Should I try to flash the replacement and if it bricks or fails just send it back? I'm going to send it back anyway if I know I can't install custom roms to it.
Yes, it can be done - apps unlock it first, then flash from 0.44 to .39.hard
Yes, it can be done and I've done it with mine. Read & print out the detailed steps, instructions & review the notes of errors/steps for recovering, etc. - backup your own data/contacts/settings, etc. on the phone - remove the sim card & microSD memory card. I used oem LG usb cable on Windows XPP SP3 desktop & do it without interruption (got a PM story of a ruined flash due to a dog jumping on the link & killed the process, for real ....)
Mine was originally running WM6.1 from VZW, did the HTC official upgrade via the link to WM6.5 and then decided to take a chance with the 3VO flash.
It's very important to do it carefully and get it apps unlocked first.
When that's done successfully & tricolor bootloader confirmed it, pull the battery out for a few moments to reset, and then re-insert & boot it up again before resuming the flash with the unzipped 3VO rom file.
When the HTC ROM Update Utility is finally connected & the phone screen is blank (black) and your pc has finished switching from Moto drivers (ActiveSync) to HTC drivers (re-establish active connections) - and you can see both your "current" version and 3VO version, you are ready to take the plunge & finalize the burn process - took less than 10 minutes at that point.
Then, it's a matter of watching the phone reboot, initialize & preparing the phone for 1st time use and waiting another 5 to 10 minutes, and wow, the 3VO startup & WM6.5 screen will greet you. Then, it's just of customizing the options, restoring the contacts/settings upon putting the sim card (used my owned sim, phone already unlocked) and memory card in the slots.
Good luck.
I tried everything. All directions as closely as possible. I had no errors happen to me on anything and everything flashed as it should have and still no hardspl 0.39. No big deal, I'll just send it back. This phone must be very very locked. Oh well. Thanks for the help.
Where do we find the drivers...after disconnecting. my device comes up as unknown
