So here it is.. this is an official release, just not officially to the public... I have posted 3 flavors of it... although word of warning, cingular definitely had their fill of bloatware with this one...
1. The original (WWE_2_1_.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108)
*edit if you have 1.01MFG bootloader the original will fail and your phone will be stuck in bootloader, you can fix this by using mtty and issuing the "set 14 0" command and soft resetting
2. Oli SPL 1.40, OS, Ext Rom, and 1.40 radio
3. Oli SPL 1.40, OS, Ext Rom
and as pof mentioned earlier you will need hardspl or sspl to flash #2 and #3
*thanks pof, i forgot to mention that
intentionally left blank
Thank You
Thanks Shogunmark. I downloaded them and will flash them tomorrow after getting some sleep. I've only been flashing roms for a month, but i've learned quite alot reading posts from you and the others who are far more knowledgable than myself.
gracias time to do some snooping
WOW!
Answer to my prayer....been going on here everyday, today the 11th 3am, and here it is waiting for me....thanx BuD-Dy
Yes It Works
ok i downloaded and installed the 1st one (original)
its great so far very stable but it is 335am in NJ...so you never know...but so far its working great....no flaws that i can see boot time is a lil longer..but other then that very stable..time will tell....
The full rom has IPL-1.03
Sounds Awsome...
Now can anyone PLEASE tell this newbie,
(1)
what's the difference between 1st ' The Original ' and 2nd ' Oli SPL 1.40, OS, Ext Rom, and 1.40 radio ' ... (i figured out 1st one is .exe & 2nd is .rar,so possibly more files; but which one is better?)
(2) How to flash / upgrade either of 'em onto Brand New Cingular 8525?
(is it possible to upgrade / flash from 2gb micro sd on the device itself?)
Thanks a million in advance, Jags
shogunmark
Can create one with
Oli SPL 1.40, OS, and 1.40 radio
i.e. no ext rom?
Thanks
Truthfully, if you don't already know the difference, use the first "original" file. Or, read the wiki, then decide. Either way, you got some learnin' to do before you try out #2 or #3. Good luck. If you do read thw wiki, you will become unhealthily addicted to your phone - just a fair warning.
Edit: Oh, BTW, the wiki will answer your other questions too. Too long of answers to rehash here. Finally, try forum and google searchesnext time. Great google search "tool" posted at the top of the Hermes forum.

Wow....
that was some reply...
been on many online forums & helped many on Sun/Solaris forums...
But here even "junior" members have attitude problems towards other junior members ( I would've NOT mind that from any senior member / moderator)...
Instead of typing all that, either could have said in two words "google & wiki" or could have saved typing that all (by NOT replyin)...
nevermind, I got to know xda developers firsthand.

Don't get upset for that... junor/senior/moderator means nothing

The original is signed by HTC and unmodified, will upgrade all your rom parts (including radio which can be dangerous if the upgrading process fails for some reason), and will upgrade also your SPL to 1.11.
The one including SPL-1.40 is not signed with the valid key, so you need to start the upgrade either using SSPL or by having flashed HardSPL on your hermes first. These are modified bootloaders which allow you to flash code without the proper signature, and will allow you to flash any rom on your device.

If you want the upgrade as provided by cingular use the first one, you will only be able to flash it if you have a 8525 (or another hermes if you have flashed HardSPL or made your device SuperCID previously). If you are somehow a bit "advanced" user and like to play with rom upgrades, and flash your device frequently, go to one having HardSPL.

Does this rom have Internet Sharing?
yes, all aku >=3.3 have internet sharing.
I apologize for displaying an attitude. I was really just trying to point you to a good source to get you prepared to do the kinds of things that the other versions allow. I was not trying flame you, just help you not brick your device. I do sincerely apologize if I offended.

Ok please go easy on me, I have been trying to look for an answer and can't come up with anything
I followed all the instruction here on how to set up a new ROM, installed NATF and everything was working fine
I just did a reset on the phone, but keep getting the following message
Your OS ROM isn't customized for your hardware. Please reflash the proper ROM code or contact the service centre
And it won't connect with Vista Mobile Manager anymore
I went into boot mode and tried to reflash the rom as per the instructions here, but after it hits 100% on the load status bar I just get the same message
Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
I've tried different ROMs, redoing HardSPL and I keep getting that message
Pretty sure I'm screwed
and your phone is raphel?and use things for raphel?
Maybe you write what exactly you do.
And tried flash by SD card.
Sorry
Yes it is a Rapael, and I following the instructions in the Noobs thread in this forum. The ROM I updated was a Rapael ROM
If you have NATF's rom on your phone you need to post in NATF's ROM thread. You will get faster help specific to the rom and we will have less threads to dig through when we need to find something .

edit: ok looks like it worked, I'm up on the stock at&t ROM now, that is really weird that the NATF ROM just went down like that
Not as weird as you not reading or searching and starting your own thread instead of posting it in the appropriate ROM thread. To just figure the issue out yourself. Mods close this thread please.

It's a crazy world little buddy
When I came to this forum I see people damaging their gene by flashing a ROM with IPL, SPL or radio (GSM). Even with so many warnings people continue flashing original roms without taking any care. Thinking about it I decided to make this thread to see if these errors decrease.
How to know that rom has IPL, SPL or GSM?
It is very simple. Download htcRIE which is attached. Run the program and open the .Nbh file of the ROM who you want to flash. If in the right panel appears IPL.nb and/or SPL.nb and/or GSM.nb this rom can damage your unit.
How to remove these files from my ROM?
Using htcRIE select the files (IPL.nb, SPL.nb, GSM.nb) and click <delete select files>. When finished click <save current file>.
Now you can flashing your rom without fear of brick your device.
Please don't flash a rom who contains IPL, SPL or GSM. It will brick your device. Sometimes in a irreparable way.
PS.: if you are brave enough to use JTAG method you could revive your gene or send it to service center if the worse occurs.
I hope I have helped.

Buying a smartphone does not make you smart......
Dear sir,
Why do you try such risky things?
Please read forum before atempting to flash.
Read the forum start posts! (Stickies under rom development)
Do you really want to destroy your phone?
First read then ask.
Even the first rom mentions HSPL.
Read this
Follow all links before flashing....
have you applied hspl yet? canty flash roms without it.
get hspl3 from my sig, run it, choose 2.08.hspl and then try flash your rom again.

Maybe you should tell us a bit more about ur phone- att vs euro version, if its att did u debrand to euro version or flashed to dft spl2.05 straight away, what methods have u tried that didn't work?

Believe me, buddy, I searched alot before posting this. I just can't seem to find a way to install the stock OSPL back again. Now I am running HSPL by DFT. I want to install the old OSPL again so that I can have the stock rom(original). I have searched everywhere, but there is no post regarding the stock OSPL. Yes, the program for installing HSPL by DFT has this choice where u can choose downloading the HSPL or the OSPL. I have tried many times to install the OSPL, but I get an error. Besides, I don't know the right structure of this whole process; Am I going to install the stock radio first or install the OSPL first? And what about the Stock Rom, when do I flash That?
RUU stands for RomUpdateUtility =)
hello bud,
pay no attention to the "know it alls" who post just to post, without actually answering your question. Thats what the forums are for, developement and questions no?
But as an attempt to be helpful, what type of device do you have?
Have you tried just flashing the stock rom found on Football's rom thread?
If not try that using a "RUU" because from what DFT's HSPL page says you should overwrite their hspl if you reflash the original Rom for your device.

I have an HTC TITAN(EURO VERSION I THINK). I do have installed ultrashot's rom(dynamic's.......) i don't know what to flash first. What AM I flashing first?
where do i get that RUU? and what AM i overwriting with? I AM getting so confused :-\
You just look in the development thread and download any RUU, like ansar's for example. Then download the stock "euro" rom from football's filefactory. Then you simply put the rom In the same folder as the ruu, run it and follo the instructions! Good luck.
