Windows Mobile 6.1

Hey,
is there a offical HTC-update for "Windows Mobile 6.1"?

Yes there is. I just downloaded it and installed it last night.
You will need to backup all your information because it wiped my device (contacts programs and everything) except for my storage card.
You can get the official update from the HTC website. Just go to the Touch for whatever carrier you use and go to the support page for that phone. You will find links there to download.

I can't find it

Is this an update for the CDMA version, or the GSM version?

CDMA Vogue

http://www.htc.com/us/FAQ_Detail.aspx?act=faq&p_id=76&cat=66
that's where I got mine. Like it said, that's the one for Sprint so dunno if your carrier has one out yet.

Vogue, Not Elf...
Hey boys... you might want to put this update in the Vogue Section... some people might use this to update their Elves and end up bricking their device.
Other than that, am glad WM6.1 is out for Vogue already. Elf should be up next shortly...

hmm I see. I thought this was for the Touch since under "Elf" it says "also known as Touch."
I have what is called a Touch and the update worked for me so yippie?

Are you sure that they will make an update for the Elf GSM shortly?
I am not sure about that.
I asked them about that a few week ago and they said they won't make an update soon.

Yipee!!! There.
Kidding aside, pal, Both the ELF and VOGUE are HTC Touch devices. The Elf is the GSM version (meaning you have to use a SIM Card on it) and the Vogue is the CDMA version. If you don't use a SIM card, then that's the CDMA version. You have a Vogue Touch.
If it worked for you and you use a SIM card, let me know, 'cause I'm gonna update my device too!
Thanks.

I read somewhere in these forums where this guy posted HTC Customer Service's reply to his email. He was asking if they had plans of releasing a WM6.1 update, and HTC replied that there will be one very soon...
I really hope they pull through this time.

After reading this thread I checked out HTC's website and they show an Operating System Update for the HTC Touch (GSM) from August 4th.
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=88&cat=2&dl_id=25
At the bottom you are required to enter your S/N. I get an error (upgrade not suitable for your device) after I enter the S/N for my Rogers Elfin. Is this an update to 6.1?

I think so, Even I am getting same error when I enter serial no of my phone. I think this update has been release only for specific versions of HTC Touch GSM phones. It might be for elfin, which is also called as HTC touch..

Link removed..
Link for downloading the Rom update has been removed from HTC website.. I just checked it...

Umm...the link is still the same since the last time i checked it. However, the "invalid serial number" issue continues...

i try my on my elfin and same problem===>Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.

I have a Touch GSM and I'm getting the same error message

Ok, it was already confirmed a couple of weeks ago that it's not going to work, so don't waste your time trying.
HTC mixed up their CDMA Touch with the GSM Touch... so the download link was on the wrong page (the GSM Touch one).

In official RU ROM it works perfect...

How was this link found? The download does not exist in HTC when trying to find it from a number of routes. It always says the message "There are currently no software downloads available in this category."
Anyway, thanks for the link. My serial number worked and I have flashed the ROM. As has already been noted it looks the same as the one udk released recently.

Can upgrade from SD Card , i lost the cable!!!!

Missing FM Radio + GSen crashing on boot

Hi friends,
I purchased an unlocked version of GSM Touch Diamond from newegg.com while I was in US. I realised later that I could not find any FM radio in it. How do I know if its just hidden (though that would be absurd) or not present at all ? How can I get it, if it can be done (and I would assume a rom update) ?
Secondly, I installed the latest version of GSen, got it to be run at startup and when I rebooted my phone, it said that GSen would not start bcos of some damn error. I had to uninstall. Any ideas how I can get around this ?
My rom version is 1.93
Thanks,
Kunal

In order to 'unlock'the FM radio you need to replace your ROM with a cooked ROM that has it built in. There is no way to enable it without doing so. Also GSen is an old program and I never had much luck with it. I would recommend Gyrator2 as it is a much more stable and gives more options for customization. Hope it helps!! Both of these answers could be found in the xda forums with just a little bit of searching...

I was able to get the FM Radio without replacing my original ROM by downloading the radio cab file from this post -

This could probably help others like me.

Rom upgrade for HD2 from o2 (UK) - won't let me!!!

Hi guys, anyone know the way to overcome this?
How to upgrade to a higher ROM?
Even HTC's website won't let me downloading the ROM saying that the upgrade aren't for this device!!!
Please!
p.s. sorry I'm new to winmo...
regards!

use a gold card in sd slot or just install HSPL first

wtf is a gold card? i keep seeing people refer to it but never what it is, i imagine its a sim card with a toffee penny wrapper stuck to it lol

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591314
Basicly its a sd card with its unique serial number run though some software but as its no longer free just use hspl if you dont have a goldcard.

Forget about the goldcard, you don't need one so long as you have a copy of the original rom available, which you do. Hunt it out in the official roms forum. First post, first link, 1.43 section, its listed there. Thats your backup, then instal hspl and you can flash what you like.

Your HD2 is locked to o2 (UK) ROMs only so you cant put any of the official HTC ROMs or any of the custom ROMs from the "HD2 ROM Delvelopment" forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
because of this your always be running out of date software as the phone operators are always so slow at releasing updates if they do at all.
BUT if you download HSPL from the above forum thread "[HSPL] HowTo flash everything"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
and install it to your phone your then be able to put on any ROM you like. Don't worry its near impossible to muck anything up and you can always put the phone back to its original rom, just do a little reading if your still not sure.

Great Guys! HSPL helped!!! I've upgraded...shame I can't manage to download Rom 1.66 as it always crashes and the download in general is sooo slow (not the internet issue)...but maybe with a bit of patience I'll get it at the end!
Cheers once again!!!

HTC have now listed a new ROM upgrade (1.72.206.3 released 27/04/10) for the HD2 on their UK support website (htc.com/uk)
Let me know how you get on with it as when I enter my o2 serial number I still get the error message you mentioned. I have sent a message to HTC support...just waiting for a reply.

all you o2 guys that cant down load have been able to get 1.66 from htc's site for months now this rom is purley for the forgoton few (like me) who got the phone as o2 launched and locked down (no wifi router etc) I ran this rom for a day and it nice and snappy fast but its still not wm 6.5.3 so i am back on touch-x again now the 2.07 radio in the o2 rom was quite ok in my area when I used it a few months ago but the 2.10 in my opionion is a match for recption with better battery life just my 2 cents hope it may help some of you

What about Virgin Mobile? Will they get a Rom Upgrqade???? they seems to have been left out of the loop even though they were the first (technically second) carrier of the phone.

Blackberry connect on HTC Touch2

After 2 years using Blackberry connect in my Elf (HTC Touch) now it is time to try it on my new Mega, however there is no way I can get it to work. I have tried all versions from 4.0.0.97 to 4.0.0.106 changing the AKU in the register with no success, PIN pending error always.
I would much appreciate any suggestions.
Best regards

search for taiseer .cab for your solution

where can you download this from ?

I´m trying the same without success.
Did you find the solution?

Not yet.
I have tried several cooked ROMs changing the device ID to Elfin or Rapahel hex-editing the ROM and then changing the AKU with no success.
I am waiting for a cooked ROM with Windows Mobile 6.1 as a last chance.
I will keep this post updated.

Would be a bummer to go back to 6.1 wouldn't ? I may also consider this as an option. On the bright side is that with 6.0 I may be able to run BBC2.x instead (with hexed model and coredll) - I am only interested in receiving emails. Anyhow - looks like we are on the similar path of trying to get BBC working on our new devices (HD2 for me).
If you still have your Elf[n] or maybe know Elf comrades with that device - maybe you could check this post and help us out with some info ? TIA

HI Moisha!
I upgraded my Elfin to 6.5 but I downgraded to 6.1 as I feel more comfortable (I love the stylus!).
Well I have checked the post you point but I prefer the ROM hexediting method as it easier although is not working indeed.
Let's hope someone cook a 6.1 ROM to try.

Forget it, YOU CAN`T, I ended up changing my Touch2 for a Blackberry Torch, what a nice machine!, I do not regret, I love my Blackberry Torch and I do not miss my Touch2.
Trust me, throw away your Touch2 and get a Blackberry Torch.
