HTC Europe No Upgrades??? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

Well I was poking around http://www.europe.htc.com when I found this http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=44 which says:
"What is the latest software version available for my device? Updates are made available via your operator's web-site. You will need to visit their site to find the latest version."

Build number differences?

Hey guys, new here and I just got my brand new HTC Hero
Yay me!
Apparently the store I got it from bought it off Asia since when I first booted it I was asked to choose from Malaysia, Vietnam and some other country and further more I have checked and saw that my ROM version is:
2.73.728.5
which I read somewhere comes on Asia phones, I understand that there is another version: 2.73.405.38.
It also appears as the official version on the HTC site and I some guides all referring to 2.73.405.38 and not my version, also some apps like the market seem to have trouble with it.
My question is:
Is it ok to install the 2.73.405.38 version instead of my current one?
I could not find a changelog, are there any differences between those version except for Asia .vs. Europe?
If I choose to install is it the same process as any other rom upgrade (since this is actually a downgrade)?
Does it have any effect on my location? If I'm in Europe and use an Asian ROM instead of the European one?
I guess what I'm asking is, is there a point in changing the ROMs?
Thanks

[Q] Latest Firmware for Orange UK Mozart

Hi, so I recently updated via the send cab program, the 2250.21.51101.401 update from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429339
However because it is .401 it is generic HTC Europe.
Is there an equivalent Orange UK one, or know what the latest Orange UK one is?
The .061 release.
Coz I am missing the Orange Apps from the marketplace. and would like to have them back. Thanks!
The latest I could fine is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281195
2250.21.40600.061
Would prefer something that has Internet Sharing enabled
Orange UK and Iternet Sharing

Hi jamieostrich
Unfortunately Orange UK have blocked Internet Sharing so you won't be able to get that on stock Orange UK firmware.
The latest Orange UK firmware that I have seen downloadable is this one: http://www.filefactory.com/file/c09..._1.30.061.01_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50_RELEASE.exe
There are two options to get this functionality. Firstly, developer unlock your device and then interop unlock it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271963).
Then install this software: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271264 I had a little trouble with the driver because the Hardware ID for the Orange UK branded Mozart is different to the normal HTC branded software. The work around is to examine the Hardware ID in Device Manager and then manually edit the driver .ini file accordingly. There are guides linked in the app thread.
The second option for you is to debrand your device which you can do as per here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002391 However, by doing that you will not get the Orange marketplace and Orange Maps, which is the deal breaker for me.

Hiya, sorry but I dont know where you get the idea that you cannot get the Orange Apps. I have ran both the unbranded Rom and i am currently using a custom rom and all i need to do is downlaod the apps manually. i.e. Orange maps and orange wednesday. Just search for one of them then in the description look for the part that says more from orange and click that, That will then take you to all that orange do. even the ones they did give away free. However I have noticed that I can no longer get all of the free stuff they had on offer any more. but not sure if thats because they have removed them or not. But I haven't used a stock rom for months. Hope this helps.

[Q] Is there a generic non-regional firmware?

Hi,
When I was using a blackberry, if there was an update, there were a generic non-regional firmware where there is no region specific bloatware. Is such a version available for the XS? I ask this due to the fact that over in the development section there are a few region specific firmwares available however, flashing them will also mean you get that region specific bloatware as well as being limited to the restrictions of that particular region (ie. some apps not being allowed to install with the Singapore version). Thanks.
There was a generic version for .67, but I do not believe a region-agnostic version has been uploaded for .73 yet.

Unsure about sammobile version (austria österreich)

The phone says its baseband version is i9300neugna2. sammobile doesn't list the neugna2 version at all. A google search gave me this website
Code:
https://samsung-firmware.org/download/Galaxy-S-3-%28International%29/9790/HUI/I9300XXUGNA5/I9300HUIGNA1/
Supposedly it's an Italian version. Apart from the fact that it doesn't make any sense since the phone has been bought in Austria from Hutchison 3, what version am I supposed to take? IIRC it doesn't matter, but I dont want to screw anything up.

Unknown "LAO" firmware, please help noob flash

Hi,
I bought a G850EMW from China to work in the UK. It has Android 10 and works perfectly. However I would like to update to Android 12. I have seen guides for this involving downloading a Rom from LGRom.com.
My current phone is running "V20a-LAO-COM". LAO seems to be hard to find information about, and there are no LAO roms on the site. I saw on one forum a reference to "Latin Amercian Region".
My question is can I go ahead and flash my phone with a Rom from say Germany (DEU) or will this cause a problem (is this a "cross-flash") as I'm supposed to find a compatible "LAO" region firmware? I don't want to brick my phone, but I would like the latest security updates, battery improvements, etc.
Thank you.
