Open the bk_06_0001.img in the notepad and search for this string: "bootloader version" (without quotes)
When you find it, on "Built on" check date. If your date is < march 26 2008 then you have an old gene. If your date is >= march 26 2008 then you have a new gene.
Sorry for any problem that the old method has caused.
With this method is more secure to determine wich model you have.

Oh yes, i remember this one. I will update my tut with a link to this thread. But Ramerson, it would be better if you provide a link to a good tool that can be used to compare these two files, as this is the question, i am sure, every noob will ask next
You're right. I've updated the first post with a good freeware.

This test was not made by me. I used it to know the model of my gene and it worked. So I re-posted it here.
But if your device has the serial HT8xxx and already came with the WM6 most likely it would be a new gene. The test would not be necessary.
Could you send me your bk_06_0001.img. I want to analyse it.
I'll update the first post with a warning.
its not so
hi
my phone is 8XXX slno and while i did the HSPL (thanks to help from Krazy) i found out that even though my phone was around 7 mths old came with WM6 and p3400i it turned out to be old gene so is suggest( i have also posted a thread on the same in this forum) so kindly dont assume new or old gene by ur nos u need to test with ramersnows testers or use Krays stiky and do the what it says it also has all the tools
this is just for ur info giving u my experience thats all

Hi Rony : The ROM you flashed has issues and get stuck up at boot stage. Flash your gene with any other ROM like Krazy's WM 6.1 v 2.7 or Besfen WM 6.5 or Helgee ROM. The same will get your gene back. & Avoid creating multiple threads.
Hey Buddy
many people include me having same problem , use spl batch and folow Krazy tutorial ,and this will not happen again

Have you checked that your Gene is old or new if not then check Here after that go Here.
I did the same way and no problem with 6.5
you can install WM 6.5
Depending on you old/new gene version u need to flash your SPL version.....
then install any rom that supports your gene...
u did the unlock ur spl or what......?
sorry for my bad english.....
plz unlock ur SPL first......then & then only flash ur gene......once u put the wrong rom the only method can help u is JTAG......plz read the 4th thread carefully......

You must know that your HTC GENE P3400 is old or New...
if your phone is OLD it means it has Unlocked and you dont need to unlock it...
if your phone is New it means it hasn't Unlocked and if you want install WM6.5 ROM (or any Coocked ROM) you must first Unlock it and then install ROM...
i installed WM6.5(karanz_Ultimate V5) it works very prefectly...
dont worry , Have Fun !!!

Who told you that if some one's Gene is old you do not need to HSPL it? Please do not say something you do not know about .
These kind of careless remarks result in people bricking their device. And this forum must be numero uno in Bricking devices .
