[Q] How to get Windows Mobile 6.5 Back - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Last night I installed a different operating system on my HD2.
Its called Leo AF WWE. Dumb me, I thought I was installing Android.
Is there a way for me to get the original WM 6.5 back?
Any help or advice, other then telling how dumb I am, LOL, will be appreciated.
Or if anyone has any comments on the Leo AF WWE Operating System...
Thanks.

I don't think it's an OS, but a ROM. So you still have Winmo 6.5, just a different ROM.

What does that mean???

Thanks, but I have no idea what that means...Can I go back to WM 6.5?
Thanks...

Yeah you need to download the original WinMo ROM which is somewhere on these forums and install it just like you did with that other one.

LEO AF WWE is not an operating system. Leo is the HTC code name for the HD2. WWE means world wide edition. Rom = Windows mobile. This means you put a worldwide english Windows mobile 6.5 rom on your phone. You need to give us more details if you want any help.
In addition: You need to read a lot more before you screw up your phone.

Just put HTC ROM WM6.1 WWE on my Kaiser. Will this run on Hermes also?

Hello-
I just successfully upgraded my Kaiser to the HTC WM 6.1 WWE version. This required JumpSpl and HardSpl3.56 Could I use the exact same files to upgrade my Hermes? I am new to all this and do not understand if the software is ROM specific, or is it just like loading Windows XP on a HP or Dell computer?
Thanks

No, check the Hermes WIKI if you want to update your knowledge quickly.
Each phone is different. Your Kaiser is like an Apple and your Hermes is like an IBM. Each os uses a different language base BUT, just like an Apple and an IBM, some apps are usable. The os language is different BUT when executing the cab files most will work across the HTC range as the os is Windows and reads things similarly. That doesn't mean you won't get a few surprise results or apps that don't work but mostly the apps work fine...
Now that I've garbled that up, the short answer is no, Kaiser roms for Kaiser, Hermes roms for Hermes. They can't be ported unless they are re-encoded...
Cheers...

You mean to downgrade not to decrease So, if it is a "virgin" phone you first have to unlock it than look for a WM 5.0 OEM firmware, there are a lot of links in one topic, just search for it.
Is there any WM 5.0 for Nike?
downgrade
ok
it is not virgin
if I have WM 6.5 ROM which is running only with specific radio can I change it to see the diference
because my real problem is poor gsm signal
and one more
if want to install WM 6.5 ( beta of course
do I have to downgrade from WM 6.1 to 5.0
@vcdwelt yes, there is a WM5 version for Nike 100, mine comes with this (from Orange)
@ciawarhater if the radio reception quality is your problem, you don't have to install another OS, most of the cooked versions doesn't contain a RADIO firmware, so you have to look only for another RADIO and keep the existing OS. From what I read version 1.65.28.25 is the best original RADIO for Nike (good reception and the best power consumption). You can get this RADIO if you flash an OEM WM6 which comes with this RADIO built in. Look for this version RUU_Nike_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.1_Radio_NikeMR_1.65.28.25_signed_Ship.exe. You can also try other RADIOs to see which one is the best for your needs.

@mishu
ok thanks
but if I have WM 6.1 and want to flash another WM 6.1ROM do I have to downgrade to 5.0 first??
or just install another ROM ??
maybe this is stupid question but I am newbie and don't want to crash my Niki
You said that your phone is already "prepared", I mean it is not virgin. Is it HardSPL? If it is you can write any other ROM, cooked or OEM. If it is not, search for the topic how to unlock your phone then you can start playing with ROMs. DO NOT ATTEND TO FLASH ANOTHER ROM WITHOUT UNLOCKING YOU PHONE! Good luck! Only the first time is difficult, second time is always better!
ok
yes
I allready did HardSPL and SIM&CID unlock
so now can I flash any ROM ??
I mean even WM5 if I have WM 6.1??
or WM 6.5
yes, you can, even Android if you like!

Can I upgrade to WM6.5 from WM6? it looks so good!!

HI
Can anyone tell me if I can upgrade to WM6.5 (english) from WM6 (CE OS 5.2.1622 - Build 18128.0.4.4)
HTC Touch Dual (NIKI100) Radio is: 1.58.1627.
Do I have to update the radio to 1.65 ? if so,...um...how do I do that?
Which WM6.5 Rom would I then need to flash to end up with 6.5 in english on my Touch Dual?
Could someone please put me out of my misery if it's a "no"..........I think I can handle it.....
Have you even looked at the rest of the threads here? There are quite a few WM6.5 roms floating around and a lot of them are english.
Upgrade yes or no
Yes Lukesky,
Thanks for your reply..yes. I've been reading these forums for around 2-3 years now so I know the roms are out there of course, but that wasn't my question. I have seen some horror stories too of some people upgrading and having the wrong radio version installed and ending up with big problems. My Touch Dual is quite old now with an older radio version than most I see here. So, of course I can download a WM6.5 in english, but my question is firstly, can I upgrade the radio version (without my phone being rendered useless !)because it seems that most 6.5 versions require a radio of at least 1.65 , and then a suitable version of WM6.5 after that. Just need a yes or no answer really...

an official 6.5 rom for the nike is not available! the last available official htc rom for the nike is a 6.1, but i think htc dont release a official 6.5 rom .
here a french rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529795
i think only this french 6.5 rom for the nike is available, but I'm not sure
Ok thanks !
upgrade 1st to latest version of 6.1 available from HTC ( official version that match you CID/language).
this will upgrade your radio so you don't have to upgrade radio, also you will have a original rom that your original spl will accept if you mess up ( forget to HardSPL ).
run SoftSPL and flash HardSPL 1.22
flash a WM6.5 rom
you could brick your phone but i think the dangerous part is flashing HardSPL.
while original SPL is there u can flash original rom (WM6.1) and after anything by starting into bootloader tricolor screen (Pwr+Camera after reset).
Syre....thanks for your guidance..just what I needed.
Syre,
Thank you so much...that is what Forums are for....help from other users who know about specific situations without all of us having to read through hours and hours of threads. You da man...
Have a drink on me and tell the barman that keeezy will pay for it !! (don't think that's gonna work somehow !!! still, thanks guy)

RQ: The cleanest possible 6.5 rom for prophet

I am looking for the least modified 6.5 rom for prophet, i tried a few but they were all heavily modified or there were too much programs preinstalled, or the worst either the camera or the wifi did not work, so i am trying to get as close as possible to the original stable rom.
Thanks in advance.
yeah i am looking for an original release of Windows Mobile 6.5 for my Prophet i-mate JAMin too!!, thanks in anticipation....

Original ROM for Prophet is WM5 !!! no updates from htc.
Buy a new phone with WM6.5 if you want original WM6.5.
how do you cook ROMs in 6.5 then?? :S

ROM upgrade/downgrade help

Hi,
I have an XDA atom which originally had windows 5.0
After looking around this site i upgraded to 6.5
I was wondering is there any problems/issues with downgrading to perhaps 6.1 as i read somewhere on here that 6.5 uses a lot of RAM.
Also, is 6.1 a good choice? Or should i stick with 6.5? The version of 6.5 was developed by Khoa ha if that helps at all. (
Code:
showthread.php?t=513809
)
I'm new at this so apologies if these are 'newbie' questions or if i have posted something incorrectly.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Paul.
Can anyone help??
Hi luapb,
If you are comfortable with 6.5, you should just stick to it, unless the performance is actually bothering you as WM6.5 is meant for devices with bigger ram and memory.
Anyway, you can upgrade and downgrade back and forth between 6.5 and 6.1 and 6 without any special downgrading or upgrading procedure. Just do the usual by going into bootloader or via activesync, make sure DSUU and other required files are in \window\temp and execute the DSUU program. You need to make sure the temp directory is cleaned out before copying new ROM's into it otherwise you might get undesirable results.
As for WM6.5, you can try Helloworld1, Glossyx1, Searcher or Tabbe's version, I think theirs are better than Khoa Ha as I remember reading somewhere, Khoa Ha's version are not very RAM and battery friendly.
As for WM6.1, you can try Helloworld1, Glossyx1 or Pdaviet's built 20764(get clean ver) as these are the clean and basic without those additional applications put in as OEM.
I would suggest you try first Jiggs ROM(0.7a.0 B3) WM6 first and then work your way up to decide which ROM suits you best.......
Happy flashing and discovering....
Thanks vincentshjuan
