S: Original HTC Polaris ROM German - Touch Cruise ROM Development

I'm searching for the original german ROM for Polaris. In the ROM Section there is only O2 Version of it.

I am searching for it too...

i dumped mine. but i did not yet reflash it. i can upload it if you want to test it. but at your own risk.
ID: POLA100
ROM: 1.25.407.1 GER (12/17/07)
RADIO: 1.58.21.23
PROTO: 25.65.30.04H
SPL: 1.25.0000
CPLD: 2

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.

searching for Proximus ROM for Hermes

Hi All,
I wonder if somebody knows where I can find a rom of Proximus in Belgium.
Hi,
I'm from Belgium also ... why would you like to have that rom? Just install the latest ROM version here available ... I think that's the best ROM you can have ...
Well, I'm also looking for that rom and more specifically for the extrom.
Proximus added some special items in that extrom which I would like to have :
The mobile TV player (and I guess you also need the certificates), a custom version of MMS composer and a cab file which sets all connection settings, etc.
So if anybody has that rom (or ExtRom), please post it here.
Regards,
Bendalf
UP!!
Anybody can HELP with that?
Up I'm really interested in that too...
In fact I want to try upgrade to WM6 but I also want to be able to put the phone back to it's original state.
I don't know if it's really possible cause I have to update all software parts...
The reason is for warranty...
Guys,
Don't know exactly what part of the ext rom you're referring to? I bought a regular Dutch TyTn and have been flashing and reflashing and reflashing again From WM5 to 6 and back again, changing SPL in between and even started a little cooking of my own.
Most of the cooked roms work (very) well, but if you really want to make sure, you need to dump your original rom first before you flash a new one. (read the wiki and all the threads you can find first)
Anyway, I hope you have as much fun as me discovering how to customize your hermes and make it do what you want, how you want it and more important, make it do what you want it to do.
Grtz.
Hi aeroke,
Thank for your answer.
In fact, I'm just waiting to be sure that I can if needed (ie: hardware problem that need warranty) I can restore the phone to the exact original state to avoid any warranty problem.
So tell me if I'm wrong but full original state is:
- original IPL
- original SPL
- original radio rom
- original rom
- original extended rom
For now, I try to find each "original pieces" before upgrading
- for extended rom: I unhide it and simply copy/paste content of "Extended_rom" folder to my computer. Is it the right way ?
- for rom: I find a tutorial on the wiki and I'll follow it this evening, I hope I can do that
- for radio rom, IPL, SPL: for now, I don't know if it's possible to get (by dumping or downloading) the original ones and restore them after
I write all the informations I found in my phone for the original versions, here there are:
HERM200
IPL-1.00
HERM200
SPL-1.04
version ROM: 1.18.256.2
Date ROM: 07/2/06
version Radio: 1.03.03.10
version de Protocole: 32.34.7010.01H
version ROM Extended: 1.18.256.9643
So, as soon I'll be sure that I can roll back to the original state, I'll upgrade to the WM6 schaps version by following the vanx guide.
I found a guide for backing up and restore the TyTN by dumping the ROM just here. But I never found any guide to restore SPL, radio ROM, IPL...
I'll be happy to have any informations about that.
Thank you in advance
Don't worry about the warranty, i bricked my Hermes once (only after that i found out how to do it right ) and it was repaired with no extra costs. So i wouldn't worry to much about it.
Just go ahead and flash that thingy. Btw, the Black Satin (JJ) together with radio 1.47.00.10 works perfectly with Proximus.
Thanks for your response, I'll look about Black Satin.
Just another question, is there any incompatibility with any WM6 and Extended_Rom software provided by Proximus ?
I haven't used any software from Proximus untill now, bought my Hermes with standard WM5 and flipped in my Proximus SIM card. The software you find here on the forums do everything that you can imagine, so there is really no need for special proximus software i guess.
As far as I can tell, the IPLdoesn't change normally, but the SPL does change. Anyway no worries as you can restore your original SPL (I still have the 1.04 somewhere)
The radio rom can always be flashed back with the original duth rom you find here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
This rom also reflashes your IPL and SPL back.
As far as compatibility between the WM6 roms and Proximus soft goes, I don't know, but I can't imagne you need more/other soft than you find available right here.
EDIT: This is only my personal opinion, but I think I tried about al the WM6 roms and find the one from Schaps the most stable one, perhaps not the most graphicaly exciting one, but the most stable one.
Grtz
Settings Proximus
Hi, I'm also on Proximus here in Belgium. Has anyone found an Ext_rom yet from this provider? Or maybe any ideas when they will launch their wm6 version?
I haven't got the settings for proximus. Any help?
Tnx in advance
Hi,
I have one Hermes from their "Proximus Collection" so I have a Proximus Ext ROM on it. I can do a Backup of it and upload it to the xda wiki. (I'll do that this evening if I can).
I don't know if Proximus will provide an upgrade to WM6...
Thanks Genyam for your help.
Can you tell us the rom version you have ?

Would that work with WM6?
I don't know if it works with WM6 but as this is only a set of CAB files, I suppose that they are compatible.
I've already created and uploaded to xda ftp a dump of my ROM.
My infos:
ROM: 1.18.256.2
Date ROM: 07/2/06
Radio: 1.03.03.10
Protocol: 32.34.7010.01H
Extended ROM: 1.18.256.9643
The CID for the Proximus Hermes: QTEK_203
OK thnx, grabbin it right now. Is it French only?
The dump that is already uploaded is for ROM, not Ext_ROM, I'll put my Ext_ROM this evening.
I suppose that it's not french only cause when I hard reset my Hermes it's in Dutch.
yeah thnx i noticed. Np, i'll grab it tonight then.
The Extended Rom is added to this wiki page: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtendedRoms

New oficial Radio...

Hi.
I post in a couple of threads but think may be is best to create a new one.
Got my Cruise for almost a week and notice that it comes with a new official Radio version that is not mentioned in this forum.
WM6
ROM 1.40.410.1 PTG
Radio 1.58.25.21
For me the device works perfect. No BT problems, no weird sounds, good quality pictures, camera ok, good network coverage, wi-fi, etc.
I'm looking for somebody that could explain me the complete process to dump the ROM and Radio and create the RUU_signed.nbh ready to flash like the cooked ROM's or Radios. I now there's a thread talking about this but is a bit confusing... 4 rar files, etc... my english is not the best.
If somebody want to help me, I could dump it and upload the Radio and ROM... maybe this could help somebody to solve some problems.
Thanks
1.58.25.21
but where is the download for it..?
There's no download for it. It's in my new Polaris and I want to dump the Radio and the ROM, but need a little help for an expert to do it, and after that, I'll be glad to share it with the comunity.
Isn't there already a topic for How to dump a rom???
But thanks for sharing..it sounds verry good.
Is the rom for the rest good working..fast and stable..because maybe you can make a whole pack of the rom and radio for us.
I will look for the topic for ripping the rom.
Here you can find what you need to dump and to rebuild a rom:

Hi ...
but is this one not the newest?
1.64.08.21
I thought that the .64. is newer that a lower number ...
and when do we get it - 'cause I have some problems sending sms (will open other thread as I do not find any answer ...)
ciao
Isidar
1.64 is from other HTC phone with same radio hardware module ( I forget the type). But radio ROM should cowork with protocol version. Therefore 1.58.x is best for Polaris, please dump your radio ROM
Hi tswu8
tks for your answer, so the newest one for the Polaris should be the 1.58.26.20 is it correct?
To solve my problem I tried the 1.58.21.23 and it did not work while I was in USA, then I came back home in Spain and the only thing I did, was reputting the service center nr. by hand (but this I did it before too) AND I put the +34 in front of the 177 the voice mail number ... and IT WORKS NOW a very strange thing ...
another thing I do not understand, the newest Radio ROM for Polaris seems to be the 1.58.26.20 (it has the highest number) but in this post a colleague from PT says he has the newest, but it is a lower number ...
I really feel lost ... can you explain a bit more?
tks
Isidar
Radio 1.58.26.20 is from kaiser and should work on polaris like the two
1.64.XX.XX radios which are from kaiser aswell.

Hi
Sorry for my english, i´ll do my best.
Finaly y think that i've done a dump of my radio (1.58.25.21), but now i don´t know how to make it flaseable.
I've put the dumped files here: http://rapidshare.com/files/142624368/R_1.58.25.21_-_G_25.69.30.05H_-_D_1.30.00.00.rar.html
Is from a rom in spanish (1.30.412.1 ESN) but i think it doesn't matters.
I hope someone can do something with the files.

Re flashing to original ROM /SPL

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

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

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)?
