hey guys, I have been reading these forums but I am still totally stuck..
I have a HTC TOUCH DUAL - no network branding whatsoever, details:
rom version - 1.31.710.12
rom date - 12/05/07
radio version - 1.58.21.23
Everytime I try to download the new WM6.1 ROM from the HTC website, it says that my serial number is INVALID. So I found a serial number someone posted on the forums for the WWE 6.1 ROM and typed it in...and it worked, I downloaded the ROM. But then when I connect my touch dual thru activesync and launch the ROM install program, it says that the ROM is not suitable for my device....
My touch dual was bought in Australia. It is definately a REAL one.
Also I am a complete noob when it comes to those "custom roms" for touch dual. Can anyone recommend me one to install??? Do i need to change the radio and uspl also?????
thanKS greatly for your help guys---!!!!!
oH...AND my touch is a Niki100
I'm not shure, but maybe there is a Rom Special for Australia?
Other you can Flash HardSPL (or uSPL) to your Device. Tutorial for this you can find (pinned) in this Forum...
Be carefull and read all before do anything, otherwise you can damage your Device...
Never flash a ROM without HardSPL. Please refer to the HardSPL thread in this forum section.

Hello guys, first of all: great forum with a lot of info..
I'm a recent owner of the HTC Touch Dual (Dutch Vodafone branded)
I've read a lot of threads before posting, but some questions are raised: I'ts about flashing my Nike to the original HTC Dutch ROM:
After reading all threads about this issue I should follow this order:
1. install HardSPL 1.15 MFG, described in the "Nike SSPL, USPL and HardSPL" thread.
2. Dump my original ROM (or should this be step 1, cause it's deleted by flashing HardSPL?)
3. Unlock my device, described in the "Nike SuperCID" - thread, with installing the original radio-version --> 1.58.21.23S as suggested
4. Flash to the original HTC-ROM (dutch) which i've allready downloaded
5. Turn the dumped Vodafone ROM to a flashable ROM and donate it at this forum
6. Ready?
As I'm studying on this for 2 weeks now, maybe someone can confirm this steps to be right, because I don't want to completely mess up my phone, or suggest some better ways...
Hope to hear from you all!
greetz..

How did you get it done
Dear wpostma,
Nice to hear that you got it done.
I am curious how you went to work.
Did you follow the steps in your first post?
I am still doubting if i should update my Touch Dual.
I have an original NLD ROM on it right now.
What is your experience? Is the phone really more responsive?
Well if I can make a backup of my own ROM then I can always go back.
Regards, KoBuster
nearly exact the steps a described in my first post, but first make a dump, it's not so hard and described in the WIKI
- the next you've to install HardSPL 1.15 mfg
- i had to unlock my phone with CID unlocker, very clear described in the CID thread
- now your phone is ready to flash any ROM
Funny thing: I wanted to flash the original HTC ROM but experienced some problems with that ROM and the ROMS provided, and the most of them being WWE instead of NL turned me to flash back my Vodafone ROM again.. but in fact the switch to another ROM is availible now and that's very pretty!
Maybe I'll flash the Lite ROM if it's available.
that's the fact...
do you have the original vodafone boot splash it isnt in your rom i need it so badley please somebody help me thnxs in advance
no I haven't my original vodafone splash screen, interested too anyways...
First of all i want to say hello to everyone , now i have problems with my phone it looses signal and i have to remove the sim card 2 or 3 times until i can make again calls , the sim card is working on an old phone so is not the sim, so it could be the rom and the radio ? If it can , i also like to know if i change the rom (an official one ) it would also change the radio ? And one more thing I have the phone from NDL , but is in English and is a WWE rom if i change to a new rom from NDL section it will be in dutch (I DON`T WANT IT IN DUTCH) , and on the HTC official site is the only rom i cand download if i will flash my phone with other official rom from other country or the WWE version but a newer one than the one from NDL page I will have to flash something hdspl or something like that or just simply install it like a NDL rom ? Thank you !
P.S. Sorry for my poor English!

I would also like to mention that i get beside the signal looses a manila.exe don`t send error
BUMP sorry but anyone please i really really need to know this
Have you tried a hard reset?
That would be my first attempt at fixing your problem..... it should certainly fix the manila problem even if it doesnt work for the sim card thing.....
If that fails you'll be able to find everything you need to flash a new rom in the rom development section (in the first sticky) you can download any of the official roms from xda and try as many as you need to.....
Im not 100% sure but I think you might need to use hspl3 to flash the official roms if your hd2 is carrier branded.....
All the info you need is in the stickys in the rom section though.......
Thanks a lot !
I'd update that old ROM to the newest Stock ROM
http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped...CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship.exe
I suggest updating to a newer radio if you are having problems with making calls. Look through the forums for comments from users with your provider and what radios they have success with. In addition I would flash a custom rom. For me, there was a night and day difference between stock and cooked roms.
It could, also be a bad sim card, seen stranger things ....
since i've got HD2 i have been tryng lots of combinations for radio and rom
but nothing works fine.. poor signal, data keeps droping and changing a lot..
does anyone know what configuration is best to use with vodafone uk? (my sim card is new)
ROM:Artemis 41.0 WWE (02/11/2010)
RADIO: 2.12.50.02_2
2.08.hspl
thanks!!
Sir you mention to have Artemis rom v41.0! but at the same time you mention to have HSPL!?
Did you have read/follow the install instructions?
I mean first of all you need to remove your HSPL from your device. Secondly you need to upgrade to the latest stock ROM 3.14 and than if you have don this; then you can install Artemis ROM.
This isn't something new, these information are mentioned step by step in the Artemis thread.
Pleas read again the hole procedure of installation, and follow them.
Ons you have don it correctly you will see that there aren't problems anymore.
We can give you lot of links to otter ROM/Radio builds but if you don't follow the installation instructions you will keep problems on your device.
I have the 3.14 ROM with 3.03.000 SPL installed on my HD2
What I`m trying to do is Install NAND Android. But to do this I need HSPL 2.08.
I read through a lot of Forums indicating that this can only be done if you flash an older ROM to phone, hence overwriting the 3.03 SPL.
Tried downloading one of the older stock roms (1.66 and 1.48) and then attemped to flash via SD and through the .exe file directly.
Heres what happened:
----------------------
From the .exe file it boots to the tri color screen and then reaches the progress bar screen. However it sticks there and the errors out with a code : 294.
At first I thought it could be an incorrect ROM but I doublechecked it.
Through the SD method after the phone detects the .nbh file it comes back with a "28002 : Not allow" error message.
Have tried this with various types of Mem cards but no luck.
I then tried SSPL with 1.66 and 1.48 as the ROM and i got it to flash the ROM with no problems but the HSPL still sticks at 3.03. And thats expected since SSPL is like a one shot go at flashing a ROM different from your region.
Question : Since this isnt working, will a task 29 help in this case? From what I understand it formats the filesystem that holds the OS. By doing so, will I then be able to flash one of the older Roms so I can install HSPL 2.08? Not sure if this will actually help.
Not sure what exactly i`m doing wrong here.

simple, you're using the wrong rom. It isnt just any stock rom, its a stock rom that is correct for your phone you need. so for example if its locked to orange france, you would need the orange FRA rom, if the phone came from o2 uk its the WWE O2 UK rom you need.
dont be confused by a phone that has been sim unlocked, it would still be rom locked.
Hi.
Just did this yesterday.
All you have to do is check the version installed.
Mine was 3.14.479.2 which is Eastern Europe.
So i downloaded the 1.66.479.2 and flashed.this flashed the 1.48 spl..
So problem solved.
forgot to mention the 3.14 it the rom version.the rest is region specific : in my case 479.2 means eastern europe.This is important.
Fox example i tried to flash WWE:1.66.405.2 (France Bouygues) but no luck. 0% and then error.
same problem - may be we need HSPL for SPL 3.03.0000
I experienced the same problem. may be we need HSPL for 3.03, or it is already available - i dont know....
Can anybody reply / answer / help us all who are having 3.03 and want to run NAND Android on their device ? ? ?
Thanks in anticipation.

Problem can easily be solved by installing the correct previous stock rom.
For example if you have now the 3.14.405.x stock rom you need to use previous version 1.66.405.x Red numbers need to be the same.
You can download the stock rom's on the HTC webpage, ore take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283

So downgrading to HSPL 2.08 didn't work ?
Ahh, dont worry i have got it working now!!
look like i had an iffy usb cable which was stopping HSPL4 from connecting correctly.
All sorted and WP7 now running, though after all that i dont think i like it!!!
