Dear poeple,
I have this question about an upgrade i have put on my artemis .
I have upgraded my artemis to wm6 rom Gibs217 now i wanted to roll back my phone to the old settings and the old rom.
I have upgraded it so my question is can somebody please tell me how to downgrade my artemis to the old settings and rom again .
Very much appreciate the help.
Greetings,
Vibes.
the same way as you upgraded just with the old rom insted of the new one
the old rom is gon from your device and will have to be reapply'd
upgrading error
But thereis the problem when i reapply the original rom after 1% it crashes and say that the rom is corrupt i tried it with 3other images and they all did the same so what would you do if you were me ? isnt there a way to remove the new rom and let the original rom install itself or something ?
sorry dont know much about flashing artemis
but when you flash a new rom it's kinda like formatting your pc harddisk
and installing a new os
you cant roll back
i would wait and see if a more spc artemis expert flasher comes along and tell you what to do
or start reading threads about how to fix your flashing issue
few issues comes along that nobody before have encountered
so it could be that search would lead you do a fix
Hello
Sorry for that Asking Stupid Questions again. (my English isn't very good too)
I have Read many Posts for some Hours so i could Help myself Solving the Problem
How to Hard SPL
Flashing Roms via HardSPL
Flashing Roms via MicroSD Card
other Threads with possibly same Problems
...
Now i think that i have Forgot or Missed Something quit Important.
Either i Forgot something or probably didn't Understand the Guides and HowTo's....
About My Problem:
Ok i have an German O2 XDA Orbit 2 (HTC Touch Cruise or HTC Polaris)
December last Year i easily Flashed my Device with the "M-Amine 2.0 Final GER" Rom.
My Device worked after Flashing via HardSPL Perfectly.
Now i wanted to Flash the "Kostas244-Rom-WWE-WM6.5 Because i wanted to try the new WM6.5 on my Device.
But i simply cant Flash my Device, no matter waht Rom i try.
The Officially O2 Germay, the Flashed M-AMine 2.0 Final or any other Rom.
I can verify that i have the Required HardSPL, done all this by Flashing "M-Amine 2.0 Final".
But every Time i try to Flash via HardSPL i get these dammit "Error 260 Message".
Now Matter what Rom Upgrading or Downgrading...
Even the Flashing via MicroSD Card wont Work.
Please is there Somebody willing to take the Time and Help an Newbie Like me?
Thanks for Helping

The only thing I can suggest is to check your radio version... if it's 1.65.XX.XX then that could possibly explain the issue. You'll need to downgrade the radio before doing anything else. Here is the link (from Pcar's ROM thread) which contains a radio that can be flashed over 1.65.XX.XX.

3LIT3_VIII_Full_GER....is wm6.1...
@Alexander
Ah yes sorry that was right. I meant "pcarvalho eXtreme ROM 3.19 WM6.5" Rom.
Also gave "Kostas244-Rom-WWE-WM6.5" Rom a try, same Problem.
@dlotters
Thx for the Tip...
Sorry it didn't Work, same Problem like all the other Roms, Radios,...
I simply can't Flash my Device, even after an Hardreset!
Everytime it goes in Bootloadermode it got Stuck and then the HardSPL aborts with same Error Message. (Error 260)
And i absolutly dont know what i'am Missing or forgot to do. There is only one Thing im sure about.
That the Problem is on my side, the Flashtools are fine.

Hallo

Please help, Anybody know to re flash ROM from Taiwanese Chinese version to English version?
Will this process damage the phone? I heard the hardware is different for Taiwanese version (from the customer service in Taiwan)
I called HTC customer service they wont help me!!, I bought wrong I thought is easy to change language. I wish I knew
Thanks for your help
uhm, by reading the Tutorials in this forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
Don't worry. Also I bought my HD2 from Taiwan. Official Rom was Taiwanese. Now, I use Customized rom which is English
Firstly you need to install HSPL, and then you can install any of customized rom. It's very easy. You can use an English rom in few minutes. I use XannyTech Pandora 1.6 and I'm very happy with this rom. You should use too.

before you install hspl to your hd2, you must back-up your Official Stock rom, so that you will have no worries uninstalling your hspl by flashing to sd card....
Hi volkansa, Thanks for help to answer my question.
Dio you mind to give me the link and instruction to do this HSPL and how to back up the original ROM just incase I got in trouble. Im very rookie on this
Thanks
Actually, I don't know any backup tool for full rom. But you don'y need to backup current rom. If you install HSPL, you can use any customized rom when you are any trouble. For example My first rom was crashed, and I downloaded another customized rom and I had easily install another customized rom with CustomRUU.exe file.
- For HSPL instruction, you should check first page of HTC Leo: HD2 > HD2 ROM Development section. You will see "[HSPL] How to Flash Everything " on that section. Then click it the link.
- and find the link of HSPL.zip then download and install it from your computer while your phone connected to your pc with ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center which are depends your Windows Operation System. If you use XP you should use ActiveSync; if you use Vista or Windows 7 you should use Windows Mobile Device Center.
- After installation your phone will restarted and then it will be ready for new customized roms.
- Now you need to get backup of your personal datas such as Messages, Contact List, Call Logs, Speed Dial records etc. I use PimBackup utility for them you can try it, if you want. It's very easy. And also you should use Storage Device for backup. It's very important. If you use main storage, you will lost your backups after flashing new rom.
- Then pick you favorite roms and download it. Then use instruction of that customized rom. That's it. You have a new rom

i've read lots of articles on this site. i suppose i'll need to instal another rom on my phone. i read a lot but i get little confused. i think first i have to instal HardSPL (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614) second i have to flash a radio and i can instal a rom. and on this page (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591784) it says i don't need to flash a radio. which means that i just install hardspl and instal this rom... am i right?
can you guys help me what am i suppose to do... and which version of hardspl, radio and rom works well for me?
sory to ask lots of questions but i don't know enough about wm phones ( thanks for guides...
Hi, basic steps are
1. Backup your important data like contacts etc..
2. Its very IMPORTANT that you Flash HardSPL first before flashing any ROM (No worries,it only needs to be done once for you to enjoy subsequent custom ROMs). Version 2.08.HSPL is ok.
3. Browse the threads for a suitable "TMobile HD2 compatible ROM" or visit this link for comfirmed ROMs.
4. Perform a Hard reset after successfully flashing any of the ROMs
5. Enjoy!
i suggest u clear your schedule, get coffee, tea, drink(s) and visit This Link . It contains info and links to all the guides you can possibly need to push you and your device to a higher level. i wouldn't recommend trying android till you are very comfortable with flashing ROMs.
you dont need to worry about the radio just yet, because since you have a tmous phone, it already has a radio that will work with all tmous compatible roms anyway.
Well I'm gonna just say right now I'm not an expert or anything since I'm relatively new too. I'm just trying to help, I would however advise wait for a more experienced person to answer.
First, if you want to flash a ROM follow this guide for the TMOUS HD2's. It goes over how to do it, which ROMs are compatible and all that.
Yes, you do have to get HSPL (except I think there are methods when you don't, though that might just be for the international phones...). But to get HSPL you should probably use this. I don't know if it is the only thing that does it but it, from what I understand, is the most well known. It also keeps you from "bricking" your phone.
From what I understand the only time you have to flash a radio is if the ROM needs it, and the chefs will say if it needs a certain one or list ones that it works with on their ROM page. I think most of them support the radio that comes stock, though don't take my word for it. I would wait for someone else to confirm or re-explain this paragraph because I'm not completely for sure.
As for which ROM is right for you...well only you can answer that. They all are different and different ones have advantages over the others. You just gotta explore a little and see what looks nice. This is the list of ROMs that support the T-Mobile HD2 so stick to it. I don't know how up-to-date it is (meaning I don't know if there are any new ones or not) but stick to those, you can "brick" your phone otherwise.
I would however advise if you're new to WM phones to try out themes first. They are a lot safer and I don't think there is any chance of ruining your phone (the only reason I flashed mine is because I've done it with a different phone before and felt comfortable doing it). Don't do anything you are uncomfortable doing and understand all the risks that go into anything you do to your phone before you do them.
Sorry for the long post, just hope this helps a little.
Edit:
I just got double ninja'd

That's d spirit...You'll be amazed @ what the search function on XDA coughs up...Everything'll go well once u stick to d guides and TMobile compatibie ROMs & Radios.
i picked up this rom (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=652649) but there is two options. 1) com5(c5) 2)com2(c2). i don't know what it means... and if want to install one of these roms do i have to flash a radio after installing hspl?
and what is the stock rom?
thanks again...
It looks like COM5 and COM2 are just different versions. COM5 offers more options it looks like though, but I'm not sure. Someone else can probably answer that a lot better than me. I am also unable to answer the radio question. Sorry.
As for stock ROM though, that is the ROM that came already on your HD2 when you got it.

I see u picked out Kumar's ROM...Click Here for a thread on the definitions and differences between COMs...And No, you won't need to flash a radio after installing HSPL or a custom ROM (Unless you are having problems connecting to your network in which case, u need 2 be careful 2 flash a radio known to work with Tmobile HD2).
Stock ROM is the original/default ROM which TMobile shipped with your device. Follow this guide and you can grab the stock ROM from here. The Stock ROM has to be re-flashed to your device if u ever have to return it to Tmobile as flashing a custom ROM voids your warranty. Grab useful links and watch video tutorials here.
Hope dis helps ya.

Hi Everyone
I'm really hoping that someone can help, I'm stuck with a slightly newer WM6.5 ROM on my UK O2 HD2.
I had WP7 on it a while back and liked it, but then the device had a hardware fault, so I flashed it back to the latest O2/HTC official ROM and sent it back for repair under warranty.
Now it's back, I can't get back onto WP7, because it needs Magldr, and Magldr needs spl 2.08 or older, and I'm stuck with spl3.03!
I've tried to flash it with two older ROMs (1.48 & 1.66) as they seem to be factory stock ones, but the device is still showing:
SPL-3. 03. HSPL
CotullaHSPL
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I can't seem to download any old stock roms other than the two mentioned above, so I can't get back!
Can anyone help me please? I'm desparate to get it off of WM6.5!
Thanks so much for any help you can off me...
Regards,
Fred
you cant change (HS)SPL by flashing ROM
boot to bootloader and flash HSPL 2.08
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5279236&postcount=4
Ahh!
Thank you - that wasn't very clear in the threads, and I thought the only way to downgrade HSPL was to go back to a stock ROM first.
Thank you again - I'm downloading & flashing shortly.... I'll be back in a few minutes!
Perfect - HSPL4 allowed me to flash it back to HSPL2.08, so I can now get on with a new ROM!
Thank you so much much for explaining that
Shame it isn't that clear elsewhere!!
Regards
Fred
congrats! next time please use search function before open a new thread, and do not post questions in dev section.
