Possible to restore original OS after flashing? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

Total noob at flashing so was wondering...
I've got a Vario II and was looking at dumping the ROM and putting on the HTC ROM.
If it doesn't sort out the issues I've been having like the screen alignment stuff how would I go back to the original TMob ROM?
Thanks in advance,
Colin.
BTW I'm upping my dumped ROM:
TMobile_Vario_II_1.21.110.3_WWE_Dumped_ROM.zip

It is not possible to flash the dumped rom, and it will not be possible for you to return to the original TMob ROM because there's no known method to dump / restore your full current ROM image using the bootloader yet.
If you flash it with another vendor ROM you'll need to wait until t-mob releases an official upgrade if you want to return the unit.

Thanks pof - that's what I was afraid of
I think I may leave it for a while

Thanks, I think this is very helpfull.
Great! Always usefull when you need to restore your device
Has anyone tested if any of these ROMs flash properly.. for me it would be the Dutchversion then... But I can not test right now can not have my phone broken down. Once Kaizer is out I am going to buy that one and then I could test, but would be nice to know if these dumped ROMs work
Unfortunately I do not know, I haven't even tested the UK version as I am not sure if it will work, however I did update the RUU.
Shame we cannot emulate the firmware install!
The T-Mob UK dumped ROM isn't quite right - the w'n'w home page doesn't work properly.
Minor thing but, one of the first things I tested
I dumped my friends ROM the other day. I'm currently working on building it and testing it - will let you know when it's done
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Hmmm...humble pie - lovely
Well, after flashing the ROM i dumped the other day, I had exactly the same thing with IE.
It took me about 3 seconds to realise it must be because the extROM had been flashed by one of the WM6 ROMs I had been using in the past.
As it turns out, this is the case so I can confirm that if you have the same issue, download the extROM dumo from the wiki (from this page) and delete the current contents of your extROM and copy the downloaded one back to it. Hard reset, and voila - everything back the way T-Mobile shipped (apart from Radio ROM, IPL\SPL etc...) but WTH ;-)

Trapper,
I assume you mean how can you put the correct Extended ROM onto your device? If I understand this correctly, the ROMs mentioned in Jygar's first post are the original main ROM but the Extended ROM is in fact from a Windows Mobile 6 ROM (I do not believe that flashing a ROM will affect the Extended ROM - the problem is that the re-flashed (downgraded) WM5 ROM is starting the Extended ROM installation after the basic OS install (as normal) but that Extended ROM is still a WM6 one.
The page that is linked to includes many Extended ROMs from many countries and devices - one of them an original T-Mobile ROM (here) and if you were to unlock/unhide and mount your Extended ROM you would be able to delete the incorrect (WM6) ones and then paste in these original Extended ROM files.
The Extended ROM files are executed during a hard reset after the OS has been installed - details of how this works are within this forum. I am not sure that you need to do a hard reset but it all depends on whether you stopped the device completing a normal (complete) install. After a hard reset the device will start to execute the Extended ROM files/.cabs and if you stop that with a soft reset as soon as it starts then the device will re-boot with a basic WM build (with no service provider fixes/updates/customisations/settings)
If this is all explaining what you already know then sorry but your question posted is rather open... Hope this helps
ExtROM.nb attached Just put it into an NBH and flash
@tony.wheeler - What was the original radio version of your Vario II? I'm in the process of creating a complete upgrade to restore UK MDA Vario II's to their 'out of the box' state with the original ROMs (IPL, SPL, MainSplash, SubSplash, OS, Radio ExtROM)

eek, think it was 1.03?
[edit]Have done a search it appears it is 1.05!
only problem is this is HTC_BOOT 0106 and most ppl are now patched to 0108 so I would have thought we cannot downgrade our radio rom.
TBH 1.43 is the best radio rom out and i cannot say a bad word against it. I have only eva updated my radio rom and since the radio update have not had a problem with the origional t-mob os.
Hehe, yeah i found out it was 1.05 as well. Oh well, I'll use 1.07 in my NBH. I now have a complete ROM backup (IPL, SPL, GSM, OS, MainSplash, SubSplash, ExtROM) to revert back to should anything ever happen which means I would need to claim on the warranty.

The dutch rom seems to be in *.raw files. How can i open of re compile it?

I keep loosing connection with the 1.50 that came with the WM6 test ROM, and also falling down to GSM even though I'm in a good 3G reception area.
Didn't seem to notice these problems before. I was running Radio 1.48 onto of the old radio.

Any chance of you posting this backup ROM? There are many of us who would be very keen to have this as a safety net for when we have to return our Vario 2s under warranty.

I too am running with Radio 1.50, after a short-lived update to WM6. I have had no problems at all with 2g or 3g, steady as a rock.

Backing up T-Mobile Ameo UK original ROM

Hi
I have a UK T-Mobile Ameo which has the original shipped ROM (WM5). I would like to know of a way of dumping/backup the ROM so that if I upgrade to WM6 or Hard-SPL my device, and I inadvertently brick it in the process, then I have a ROM to fall back on.
Is there any way of backing up the ROM? Also is there a way of restoring the ROM to the device, should I brick it?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Back to Stock ROM (NLD)

Hi All,
I'd like to go back to the original stock ROM (Dutch version).
Now, I have the DCS ROM on my Raphael device, and like to get it back to the original version. This, beacuse I want to sell my device and buy the Blackstone (a.k.a. HTC HD). I have read this thread and lost it at step 2 (see head: UPDATE: STEP BY STEP HOW TO RETURN TO STOCK SPL - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!). What is the 'original HardSPL'? Is that the 'RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_1_90_3.zip'? Or is it another file? And if so, where can I download it?
ThanX in advance...
Greg
Just flash your phone with the HTC NLD rom. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Raphael_WM6.1_ROMs
Nobody will look at the spl crap.
Of flash em met deze Engelse ROM als je de orginele spl terug wilt.

yeah not unless you are trying to do a warranty return reverting back to stock spl doesn't really matter. But if you really want to than just extract the spl from the nld rom and flash that to your device (ofcourse using a sspl).

old rom

Hi
Following instruction from this site i changed the rom of my lolite
unfortunately my lolite operates worst than before(slow, stucks etc)
How can i go to my original rom?
This is the reason I've decided to wait with flashing any custom roms/patches until I can obtain a proper HTC rom to go back to if something fails... The only ROM I've seen as an official release is listed in the Iolite device page, but if I can remember right, it is a French version. If you've got this kind of problems, you might as well download any cooked ROM, but ready and tested and flash your phone with it - at least it should be more stable than the modified one you've got now? If you would find any original shipped ROM, though - post it here, please!
Iolite WWE(english) stock rom:
