DO NOT TRY TO FLASH ROMS FROM DIFFERENT PLATFORMS, you may brick your phone.
If you have supercid , try this:
http://rapidshare.com/files/45915194/RUU.rar.html
it's only the OS module of a modified version of WM6 from Tornado, without SPL, IPL (bootloader), etc. so it will not brick your phone, even if the update stops. if it's not compatible, it will just destroy your os which can be flashed back very easy (if you have supercid), otherwise you have to do extra stuff..
PS: i don't know how to supercid/sim unlock monet. don't know if spv-services (the app for supercid & simunlock) is compatible with this.
sorry for my stupidity/total lack of knowledge but where can you get supercid (have searched but cant see anything obvious) and are you saying that I can try the RUU ? And what is the correlation between RUU and supercid and simunlock (and why do i need them). I could really do with an FAQ /noobie guide, can anyone point me to one??

then remember if any thing goes wrong then you wont be able to get you lobby back because virgin haven't realest a rom upgrade for it
does anyone have a stand-alone app that can be used for the DAB radio on the monet? I wouldnt upgrade my monet if it meant losing the DAB functionality...
dt_matthews, you could easily extract the TV Dab application from the lobster if the WM6 update works.
What an interesting idea though, I remember the doctor telling me that this theory may work as he was going to extract the OS from the Tornado and flash it on the Hurricane but never got round to it.
I will ask him on msn he if thinks this should work.

wicked, cheers dude, that would be great to know as i love the DAB and coldnt do without it but would love to get my monet running wm6 ;-) any info/guidace massively appreciated!
Sorry I never got back to this.
It's a no go, apparently you cannot just flash the OS section from a different device.

I have to ask this - WHY??????????
-There are some programs that are not WM6 compatible
-There are some features/programs missing from the cooked ROMs
-If you sell the phone, and the person needs warranty work done, you want WM5
-You need to send it in for warranty repair
-You want actual tech support from your operator or HTC (even though this forum is better)
-You like being behind the times?

You don't NEED to do ANYTHING! Personally, I'd keep 1.40.Oli as your SPL, and 1.38.00.10 as your radio, and put on Cingular's 2.06 rom if you want WM5. Use Black 2.0 if you want WM6.. You can always downgrade radio and SPL if you need to later on, but, for now, leave it alone.
Well the only reason I ask is because I do plan on selling the phone, so I just want to make sure That I'm doing everything right...if that makes sense? I did super CID the phone though...

Leave the radio and HardSPL on the phone if you are selling it. Id say they were a good upgrade to sell alongside the device.
To mrvanx
In your this guide you use romkoch to generate NBH from NB files.
http://www.mrvanx.myzen.co.uk/hermes_guide/Downgrade/
But in the romkoch software there is a tab NBH to NB tab, why is it that your quide don't use this to extract the NBH file?
I personally prefer to use NBHextract.
Im changing to guide to use a different app soon anyway.
Do I need to use that app to downrade if I am going to use an official rom from Cingular... their updated one?

I had the same problem with the 8525 using the stock ATT ROM and MMS. The only way i could make it work was to use a cooked rom(which you will like better anyways IMO). Make sure if you flash ur phone to use HardSPL to keep from bricking ur phone.
Here is a link to a good howto for flashing: http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/
Also if your going to flash it then you will need the keyboard layout fix here
We've already got HSDPA, thankyouverymuch ;-)
What ROM are you running on the 8525? Have you upgraded it to WM6 or is still running the pre-installed cingular WM5 one?
Smiffy.

umm and just forget the fact that it has 200mhz...vs. a 8525 a 400mhz...not the smartest comment lol
I have no idea. I am still trying to learn how to access all the features.
I had Nokia 9500 before that and this phone is slightly different.
WM and ROM info should appear when i am restarting the device?
I am pretty sure i had WM5,but i am not sure....
Just go into Start --> Settings --> System --> About and that will tell you what OS it is running
Oh..Thank you
It says:

I really like the shogun rom. Here on XDA he has some v2 basis but on the japanese site he has the shogun roms.... I love this version. I had schaps but I found it slow (3.54c). This version of shogun (freedom) is great. Very quick and something like 57mb free storage and instead of have a bunch of apps coming installed, he gives you a folder called Shogun OEM with the cabs to the apps in it so you can install them if you want. For example, if you like HTC HOME, you can install it after with one of the cabs instead of having it integrated and not be able to remove it simply as in schap's.
Talk about freedom! This is the first samurai-me rom I have tried.
Well well well,you know what?You convinced me!I'm going to flash it with this last one!Thanx again for everything!Woow i can't wait!

What happend if i don't do that???
Ok i have to flash it from WM5 to this new Rom WM6_SHOGUN_FREEDOM_b_SBM2

I am not sure if the wm6 shogun freedom rom includes hardspl (it might).. but I would flash hardspl first because it will let you flash to ANY rom ANY time without worrying about flashing a rom with a different CID.
Remember your phone was bootloader only? It is because you tried to flash a rom that was a different CID... if you had hardspl installed, you would not have had any problems before.
Hardspl v7 will change your IPL to 1.04 and SPL to 2.10.Olipro.
Ok thanks for your advice!
Here is an RUU that i patched with guidance from Olipro and Cmonex to not (always) hard reset when it has finished flashing (useful when you want to flash just a splash screen or radio update). This should be used in conjunction with a patched SPL (e.g HardSPL) and shouldnt be used for full OS ROM updates.
Have fun
Edit: new version attached: asks about hard reset. packed properly

Could anyone possibly tell me how I would go about using this to flash a Kaiser Radio Rom update to my Dual?
I've got the HardSPL on my device now, just wanted to see if it would work.
I did try it using the updates on the FTP site and this RUU, but I got a device ID error, probably cause the Rom is signed for the Kaiser.
Suppose what I'm asking is could someone take the kaiser radio update and sign it so the dual will accept it?

I can do that for you, and if you are willing to risk you're device then fine by me but i make no guarantees at all that it will work, let alone it wont turn your device into a paper-weight.

If there is a chance updating the Radio will activate wifi I'm willing to try it on my Dual, but would need some help with the required steps.

I have tried kaiser's radio you give,after flash,noting happen,the radio rom is 1.58.16.27,is it right?
Oops, ok, looks like you beat me to the punch.
Using the CustomRUU.exe I'm not seeing "Image Version : 1.31.73.09" to "Image Version : KAISER RADIO" - are you seeing that too ?
Had you dumped the default Orange radio first, need to look into how I can do that.
I saw that,but I didn't dump
ok, haven't found a way to do it either, so it seems the flashing lef your device in its previous state, odd !
I try again ,it's from 1.31.753.13 to kaiser radio
sorry i packaged it up wrong, ive done it properly now and flashed myself and bad news it sim-locked my phone and i now cant use it
my phone already locked sfr,so doesn't matter
Every since i SPLed and changed to windows 6.5, my phone has been really funny.
Sometimes people cant hear me, sometimes they can, sometimes i get this crackly fingy on the line, just some funny noises on the line.
I have done the SPL thing a few times and HSPL as well and tried different flavours of ROM and radio ROMS but naaaa. Anyone had this issue and any suggestions on how to fix at all please?
Thanks
Sometimes you need to install a stock HTC rom and then reinstall the rom of your choice. I noticed weird things only in WM6.5 roms also, I thought my phone was almost dead, then I flashed an old stock rom, redid the radio and installed the rom again, and all was fine...so I tend to now go through this every half a dozen flashes, just to keep the phone running smooth.
As far as radio - I find 1.65.28.25 gives me the best battery life and WM6.5 needs a 1.65 radio (from what I understand).
I assume that the phone is CID unlocked - what version of HSPL did you install - 1.22?
DT
hey dt i think for a 20 key nike the best radio is 1.65.29.22
for a 16 key nike its 1.65.28.25 i think
cuz 1.65.28.25 sucked on m phone initially
.......about flashing a stock rom.... totally agreed
I installed HSPL 1.22 and am not too sure what radio but will try radio 1.65.29.22 as stated. Stock ROM... what does that mean please??? Oh yeah and its a 20 key NIKI
thanks guys

That means an official ROM version (like the one you had on your phone before flashing a custom ROM). There is a thread with many original ROMs here. Perhaps one of those helps.

Are we allowed to swear on this site? I have just about had it with my NIKI but cant bear to see this beautiful device go to waste. Could it be faulty? It works great with the earpiece connected. All these issues never happened until i decided to go high tech and change the ROM
