Re flashing to original ROM /SPL - Touch Cruise ROM Development

Hi everybody, Martin from Argentina here.
I have a Polaris and I had flashed with the oli hard spl and test some roms last months.
The issue is that the wifi turn on doesnt work anymore and may be it due a phone drop-to-floor event...
I think I can ask the seller about the guarantee, but I think I will need to reflash to original SPL and rom. A friend of mine have an original untouched polaris so I think I canget the original spl and rom from there.
The problem is I dint find how to do it. Can you give some advise or link?
Best, Martin

later on I would like to flash it with the newest shipped rom. do i have to use hard spl v7 to back to an original rom??
Mys spl is 1,06. Rom is 1.18 and radio i 1.03.

RADIO: 1.58.21.23

Ok, pls upload, this is my last try.

it is the dumped OS, maybe its ok for all.
@ daze81
And, have you tried the image? Does it work?
had to search the tools for updating the rom with your version (after i tried the wm6.1 version
i let you know next days ...
thanks
cu camel
thanks would like to know if it works
Well, if the SPL isnt included, you basically can't brick your device (I might be mistaken about that though ). Youll always be able to fall back to the bootloader (multi color screen) and then just reflash a working ROM.
ok, there is no SPL included. i just dumped the original OS and rebuilded it. nothing else.
I guess I gonna give it a quick shot before I flash the next bepe... unless somebody else is first and confirms your working backup before I get the chance to do so.
Did anybody try?
Hi to all!
Did anybody try the original german Polaris dump (http://rapidshare.com/files/102226089/RUU_signed.7z)?
Or does anybody have a working original german ROM?
I don't want to flash another ROM before I don't have a working "backup" for warranty issues.

the user hyson told me that this rom seems to work. i did not test it for myself yet.
you'll need hard-spl and a custom ruu to flash it. then you can go back to original spl.

Thanks for the information! Let's trust Hyson
@ Schaggo: sorry for full quote, but I have to say thanks for both information....
I got fed up with those cooked ROMs. I'm downloading and flashing the dazes dump (thanks bro!) right now. I'll report how dead my orbit is afterwards...
<edit hmm... yeah, it's looking good. Its booting, definitively German and everything seems in order... />
The ROM looks good ... seems to indeed be the orig. German ROM.
But what Radio ROM did Daze81's Polaris have ?
Since I may have to return my Polaris to HTC for repair, I want to make sure it's the way it was before I used some cooked ROMs. (And I can't remember what Radio ROM it had ).
Cheers,
Andreas
It has no Radio included. And if you want to go for warranty, you can reflash Radio 1.58.21.23 which was the original Radio.
You'll find it in the original German orbit 2 ROM thread which is linked in my signature. I provided the Radio as well in the other thread...
Schaggo,
thanks for the info and the link !
Cheers,
Andreas
dumped german rom
excuse me, how do i flash the xxxxx.7z file?? must I unzip it in any way??
thank you for answering
www.7zip.org is the tool of your choice. use the file inside this archive with Custom_RUU for example.

Which official ROM should I upgrade to (Vodafone UK)

Hi -
I've had my HTD HD2 a few days now and want to upgrade to an official ROM which will hopefully sort out a few minor instability problems that it has at the moment, and more importantly battery life issues.
The current ROM version is 1.43.405.1 (70124) WWE.
Firstly could someone please advise me which ROM version I should upgrade to? On the European HTC site the latest is 1.48.405.2 but apparently there is a 2.02 out too?
Also, could someone advise me where I should download the ROM from? I can't use the HTC official site as my serial number is blocked due to Vodafone only allowing ROM upgrades through them. I've found this link from this site http://www.4shared.com/dir/22189940/b8552fa0/Shipped_Leo_ROMs.html but am not sure if i'm looking at the correct thing?
Finally, could you please tell me which guide I should follow? I was thinking this one... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591314
Thanks in advance for your help
1.48 is the official HTC one so I'd say give that a go first...
Best guide is the one for n00bs as it tells you how to install HSPL as well which makes life SO much easier (apparently, still on 1.48 myself)...have a good read and go from there...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
1.48/1.61 are the latest official roms.
2.01 and 2.02 are unofficial leaked ones.
Stick with 1.61 or 1.48 for stock. You can then always flash a new radio too.
Install HSPL, then put the ROM image you pick on an sdcard as LEOIMG.nbh. Or install via activesync.
Thanks for both the replies. Sorry could you clarify which is the latest official? 1.61 or 1.48?
I thought I need to use a gold to upgrade? Would the guide you linked to, EddyOS still be okay? Because it does not mention the gold car in it anywhere, wheras the one here does...
And finally, could you explain what HSPL is and how it would be beneficial?
Thank you!
bump.. any help is appreciated. thanks
These are questions best asked and answered in the ROM Development section, not here in General., but briefly, HSPL will let you flash any rom from any region, including cooked roms. Goldcard will let you flash OFFICIAL roms from any region, but unless you already have a goldcard, you will have trouble making one, as the free goldcard generator went offline a few days ago.
Having HSPL on your device will probably be enough of an excuse for your supplier to not support your warranty, though you can uninstal HSPL if needed.
Go read the Rom development section over and over and over again is the best advice.
1.61 is the latest official ROM, but it is localised only for WWE and Turkish.
Yes, and HSPL will let you recover from a bad flash too.

Rom newb questions about SPL / HardSPL for POLA200?

I have a brand new XDA orbit 2, which is offered with a warranty by the supplier.
I put the O2 official WM6.1 upgrade on it (RUU_Polaris_O2_UK_3.13.206.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship.exe) which flashed fine.
I intend to try one or more of the many great sounding WM 6.5 rom images, however, I have a few questions, mainly related to SPL/HardSPL, which although I have done a bit of searching for, have not found definitive answers for ...
Are there any differences between POLA100 and POLA200 devices (will HardSPL work fine on my XDA Orbit 2 / POLA200).
How can I restore the original SPL on the device?
Can I extract the original SPL from a) the device, b) the ROM image, c) source elsewhere?
With HardSPL installed can I reinstall the official upgrade rom with HardSPL still in place (in case of stability problems, with rom images).
Also - anything else I should be thinking about before flashing this device (note I am going deactivate copilot before flashing)?
Apologies if I missed the answers in other posts!
TIA

1. yes...main difference is touch cruise...polaris 100...o2 oribit 2 polaris 200
2.yes you can...flash original spl
3. don´t think so
4. now problem...but after you flashed original rom

Have fun
Thanks for the reply... Sorry to be slow, but...
>1. yes...main difference is touch cruise...polaris 100...o2 oribit 2 polaris 200
Is that significant technically, which is what I did not say very well?
>2.yes you can...flash original spl
>3. don´t think so
How do you flash the original SPL then (I am v. newb!)? I don't have that (other than on the device itself).
>4. now problem...but after you flashed original rom
The original rom has been flashed (over) with the official update, I am not really getting the point here? Do you mean my orignal O2 uk WM 6.0 or the original referenced from your thread (RUU_Polaris_HKCSL_WWE_3.19.831.3_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship)?
Thanks for the pointer to you rom thread which looks very useful (I am from UK BTW)
Thanks again
