Exact HTC HD2 ROM? Is there any way to get it?

Hey all,
I have been reading around the forum and I know ENERGY's ROM is quite popular with the manila 2.5 like the HTC HD2. However I was wondering if there was any way to get the official HTC HD 2 ROM? The OEM version that came with the HD2 instead of one that someone made.
Sorry as I am still new to the WM community and not very familiar with ROMs and stuff like that.
Thanks!!

That energy ROM is based on Leo ROM...

I think he is asking for a much Stock-ish looking ROM.
I'd advise the OP to check out Ark's ROMs, as they tend to look very similar to stock ones. It's the one I'm currently using, and it's the most bug-free version of Manila 2.5 I've found to date. And it looks like a stock ROM.

Any idea where to download this ROM. Also does it support support arabic language?

Thanks for the replies!
Thanks NoWorthWhile, I'll definitely look into ark666's development.
ahmedraouf: You can find the rom hes talking about in the rhodium rom development section. Its developed by ark666
Cheers

Which kind of ROM do you use ?

Let me know which of those ROMs do you use on your Leo ! If your isn't in the list, please post and comment

Official Rom LoOOOL

No stock rom option? bah

Havnt Had the ball's to run with other than the stock one... Even tho now with the nexus one out and all H hope someon could work something out.. Would love to try on the Android OS.

Only 6.5.3 or 6.5 with 2.02 package are considered. That mean that modified stocks ROMs are not considered.

The OEM ROM that came preinstalled on my HD2!!
I've had no issues with it so far. Very happy with my device.

I don't think this poll is representative without having the stock rom as an option on it.
If you are not keen on the stock rom then you should change your post title to read "What Cooked Rom Do You Use".
WB

I use the original rom!

I agree. I'm also on the stock ROM.

Nice poll, maybe it could help me choose which cooked rom i should flash

I agree - the stock rom should be included as most people are still happy with it.
And I'm using the stock rom. Although I am tempted.....

I use the Stock Rom!
More than good enough for my needs no performance issues and none of the 'cooked' roms offer anything significant for my needs.

First theres a ROM section of the forum
Second there's no option for Stock, which is what I'm sticking too

I'm new to the flashing ROM scene, all my previous phones being Nokia. So this might seem like a n00b question, but is there a post that compares between these ROMs? I'd like to go through the strengths of different ROMs before I flash.

You're in the right post, look on message #6, which will inform you about Windows version (6.5/6.5.3), Sense version and ROM (& drivers) version. It's a beginning which will help you to choose a ROM.
You have to choose a WinMo version. There's two choices : Windows Mobile 6.5 or Windows Mobile 6.5.3.x
You have to choose an HTC (Sense & drivers) version : stock version (1.48), 1.61 or 2.02.
Next, choose you ROM considering to this items. I can help you for your choice, giving you a ROM list, if you give me your choices (1-2).

the poll is lol. no option for stock rom an no option for "my rom" (literally).

Xannytech?
I personally think that stock roms should be considered - at this stage many prefer 1.61 over the cooked ones. this is looking like a disguised 'which is best' thread

Yeah - I agree. I'm still on a stock ROM and won't be changing any time soon. We need an option on this poll for that.

New Questions here, old one at the bottom.
hi and thanks to everyone for your answers... you helped me a lot.
but:
I tried various 6.5 and 6.5.3 roms and found a lot of bugs in all of them... and that's not really my style. I want to go back to stock firmware 6.1 and there are not many options (or maybe i wasn't able to find them). Where can i find the Stock Firmware section or something like that, if they are unbranded even better, and if you can direct me to the latest one even better... i have installed the one from Orange in spanish meanwhile, i think it's Ver 1.57.75.3 found here. forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=566929 but if there are better unbranded ones i'll be very happy to install them... (how about this one: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521354).
Thanks a lot again in advance...
old Question:
Hi, i bought yesterday my new Opal and i have no idea how to update the rom to windows 6.5... I´m a bit of a perfectionist so i wanna get things right from the beginning, and i used to mod motorola phones so i understand some of the technical stuff, but htc is completely new to me.
So far, this is what i have understood:
to update:
1.- install hard_spl
2.- install custom ruu
3.- install new rom.
But i have a lot of questions on what is each one of those things and the advantages they give.
What does Hard_SPL do?
What is the Custom RUU for? (what is the RUU?)
What is the most stable and least customized rom with winmo 6.5? which rom is the most used by this forum?
What is titanium?
and last: how is the Opal unlocked? (if posible)
Mi goal is to update to winmo 6.5 but keep my phone looking as stock as possible and as stable as possible...
all the help i can get will be very appreciated...

Congrats for your Htc touch viva!
Ok now initially Htc touch viva has its official spl which would not allow your device to upgrade to custom roms. You can only upgrade to official roms. So Spl is a kind of lock To unlock that only we use Hard SPL After installing HSPL you can upgrade to custom roms.
And you understood slightly wrong because Ruu = Rom update utility its just a app which is used to upgrade your rom in your device. So u dont install that. After HSPL directly rom
And about the roms i cant say coz every one has different flavours try them all At last titanium is a new interface made by microsoft and introduced in wm 6.5 and above.

A Word of Caution....
I want to add one thing...(IMPORTANT!!!)
#1
WM6.5.x has not yet been officially released for HTC Touch Viva T2223.

#2:
If you are looking forward to experiment with it...go ahead on your own risk as your phone will be void of warranty after 'HardSPLing' it.

#3:
Don't think that a particular WM 6.5.x ROM will work for your device just because it worked like a charm on somebody's device. Believe it or not, though it may be the same model ex: HTC Touch Viva T2223, there are variations depending on the country.

I learned the hard way...I took a roundabout ticket....i HardSPLed my device, flashed custom roms, tweaked and played and fooled around with it and has come to a conclusion.

I want to add one thing to what freelancer said:
Imo it is not ALWAYS the best to stick with the stock version. I had branded ROM shipped with my phone, hardSPLed it and installed custom translated unbranded ROM.
Does the same thing as branded ROM did but way faster. And some features like the HTC task manager didn't work with branded rom at all. Now everything works just fine.
I agree that stock ROMs are the best/fastest, but just not if you have a branded one. It slows down your device.
Just my opinion

Lol, who said that stock is rom is best as far as about opal you should go ahead with custom roms i have seen that custom rom gives more free ram then stock. Plus task manager in stock rom that can be done in custom also the thing is the more the rom is lite the more efficiently your device will work do you know the stock rom .nbh file size is more than 100 mb whereas a normal custom rom is around 90 mb if there are many app and you can create less than 50 mb stock rom also. Wm 6.5 is perfect for opal inface wm 6.5.x also.

#1 >>>>> And it will never be announced!!! LOL

#3>>>>>>> WELL I have to disagree!!!! The hardware is all the [email protected]@@@ LOL
#>>>>>>>>HMMM It all bottles down to personel Taste,, bro
THE VERDICT!!!!
Custom Roms RULE!!!!!

i don't mean to disagree with you guys (you know better) but i didn't mean to say that WM6.1 v1-vx is bad but as far as WM6.5 is concerned....they have disadvantages like they are buggy and also consumes battery quite fast.
Appearance wise...WM6.5 is way ahead...but performance wise....I'll stick with WM6.1 anytime.
currently i am using WM6.1 v14 by PDAVIET it is nearly perfect!!!!
regarding differences in hardware...i was meaning the CARRIER...like Verizon, DoPoD, T-Mobile (MDA Basic), iDea (India) and so on...sorry...
regarding stockspl...mine was SPL 1.35.0000...i couldn't find any download link for that..

hey brothers i think tht opal also should have a completely cleam winmo 6.5.3 rom plxxxxxx i love it on mi friends wizard which has less ram....i know ya guys can do it...and also brother winmo is all about customising and making changes to interface wen ya want... its not only themes..it has completely different uis tht can be swithched ezily... so ya gotta try these.....i guess after trying diferent lock screens games today screens thn aftr tht rty theroms

There is no stock 6.5.X for HD2 only 6.5 sir

is there a wm 6.5/6.5.x rom without any customizations from HTC or others?... plain clean MS stuff...

So what is the best 6.5.x rom to use as a base when creating own rom for HD2?
After somthing that looks liek stock visually so I can adapt to suit my needs but back end should be stable etc.

As already stated many times, HD2 does not come with any WM6.5.x Stock ROM ...
What you need is a Wm6.5.x build + WM6.5 Stock ROM and mix them up...
Best way is to go through threads over at Chef Central : http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=612

Dude I know HD2 doesnt come with a stock 6.5.x rom, I didnt say or infer it did!
I was simply asking which is the best base rom(s) to use, didnt say say anything about using a hd2 stock rom.
Thanx for link though will check it out.
