My insurance company has replaced my handset with an Orange branded HTC hd2 - it has the orange software preloaded and there is an Orange logo on the back of the phone.
However, I can't seem to find the Orange stock ROM anywhere on the site. Does anyone know where I can find it?
The software version is 1.72.61.2 (82124) WWE.
EDIT: But really, any stock orange software would do me.
theres an orange uk 3.14 rom, , for some reason the only rom on the htc website for orange uk is the 3.14. and yet no other uk carrier has a 3.14 yet. bastiges.
http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=all
oh and yes, it is perfectly valid to have that rom on your phone, it counts as stock, even if that version didnt ship on your phone.
You wont be able to downgrade to use hspl using that rom, but at least its a safety net should things go wrong. Plus you can use sspl to flash other 3.14 based roms, since you would have spl 3.03.0000

Thanks, I found that just before I read your comment .
Any chance anyone might have a 1.71 ROM though?

I have the Orange SPV M3100 and was wondering when (and if) they release a ROM upgrade, where will it be posted?
O2, TMobile and Voda all have download pages for various things, but Ornage don't seem to do this.
Now come on. Please put a ? on the end of your subject! I nearly wet myself when I saw your post, thinking that they'd pulled their fingers out and posted a new ROM :wink:
When they do post it, it will be at
http://www.business.orange.co.uk/se...4132772045&extarg1=Phone&t=SMEDeviceDownloads
LOL Sorry never thought of that :lol:
That's FUNNY!
I followed the link above to the Orange page about the M3100. It says that standby time is 6 days! ROFL!
I get about 1 day out of mine - and I hardly make any calls!
Being a little inaccurate - ok. Getting 18% of "official" figure - that's just plain old BS...
Have heard Orange won't be releasing an update until January so don't get your hopes up for one soon.

The link you provide doesn't have their first and only ROM. Does anyone have it. I need it very badly since I want to play with upgrading and using hard spl. I'm afraid if I brick it again while upgrading I'll have a chance to flash the original ROM.
Does anyone know when they will have an upgrade? Will they ever???????

I was waiting for 6 months. Gave up in the end and just took the cover and screen off my bricked SPV and put it on a knackered Vario ii.
I'm not sure what Orange's thinking will be with updating this ROM - if they start selling SPVs with Windows Mobile 6 they may just not bother releasing an Updated ROM at all (unless the need arises to release a newer ROM for handsets pre-installed with WM6 - in which case I doubt the older WM5 handsets will be supported by such an upgrade due to licensing issues).
Much as I would've liked to find a ROM update I really don't think they'll bother: there are no real issues with the original ROM (at least I never came across any).
I Cooked A WM6 Orange Ron Using Bepes Kitchen. It Has All Of The Orange Settings Installed, But It's WM6. Use The UK Orange Package Posted In Bepes Thread.

will that work?
Orange id needs to be 001 not 008 otherwise it'll say invalid vendor ID.
I've the same problem from November 2006 !!!!!! Please a rom with 001 cid !!!! Thanks from Italy
How does your cooked ROM perform? Does it have all the Orange settings for GPRS/MMS etc? Was thinking of cooking it as although I currently use WMXL, I would really like the Orange settings built in.

Bebes thread has a striped ROM(operator settings only I think). What I'm after is a complete shipped ROM for just in case I brick it again.
My intention is to keep the bootloader to 1.04 and use Hard-Spl. Then I'm able to upgrade to anything without worries.
Ok, Well The Cooked WM6 Rom Works Fine, @findus Yes All The Orange Settings Are Included, No Problems As Of Yet.
@sniper258 I Also Recompiled The Original Orange UK Rom From A Dump Someone Had Made, It Is The Original OS That Is Supplied With Your Orange SPV M3100. Search For Rom Reconstruction And You'll Find It.
Cheers
@sniper258 From The Sounds Of It You Still Have The Original Rom Installed, Could You Tell Me What Radio Rom It Ships With Originally So I Can Create A Proper Original Rom That Includes The Same IPL,SPL,OS And Radio.
IPL - 1.01
SPL - 1.04
OS - Orange UK 001
Radio - ??
Just A Quick Check You Are From The UK Yes?
Cheers
As stated the cooked rom as above does add all of the settings but the battery icon on the top bar does not work, after install it stays as the clock.
Changing the registry to show the via ms shell does not work either as the battery icon does appear but does not function.
@the.drone
Is This The WM6 ROM? I Didn't Know That Was The Case, I Use SPB File Explorer Which Uses A Today Plugin Whos Battery Meter Works. But I Can See How Annoying That Would Be.

this is on either the aku3.3 or wm6 roms, have been trying to find a fix for the past few weeks.

Cheers
I flashed my tytn tmobile dutch phone to the cingular 1.34 but want to go to the original english Tmobile rom (no problem with vender id)
any one has the original rom available for me?
This cingular rom freezes the phone often!
Often, you can't upgrade until an official ROM was made by T-Mobile.
As far I know T-Mobile hasn't made ROM upgrades yet.
I could be wrong though, and interested in such an upgrade.
Every few hours my phone now is stuck!!! I hate this rom and videocalling is off....
I made a mistake upgrading to bootloader version 1.06... I need an official rom now...
Is there any other way?
Tnx!
Check the wiki, there are a some roms available there.
you cant flash another rom since the 1.06 bootloader enforces Vendor ID checking! otherwise i would have changed allready....
All,
I need to get hold of the original shipping Orange UK M3100 ROM, I have had a look at the RapidShare links here and the one posted is Romainian
If you flash with this All Connections/GPRS/ etc dont work, have tied setting up the comms settings from info available on the web.... no luck.
Only option is to reinstate the original ROM, anyone know were I can download this. Orange site has no link....
TIA
is it here?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
Nope ...
Nope.... this is the Romanian ROM, need UK ROM ...
I Manage To Get My Orange Settings To Work On Any Rom.
Just Follow These Instructions. Hope They Help Their Not Formatted Just Copied And Pasted Of The Web.
Cheers
As far as I know, only the Romanian one is available.
I'm using the Romanian Orange ROM in the UK on my M3100 (believe it or not, it's the only one I've tried where everything works perfectly - if a little slower than I'd like).
I've got a T-Mobile SIM in mine, and to get the data connections working I had to remove all of the preinstalled Orange connections from the Settings menu, then I used a registry editor to delete all the remaining Orange connection bits which I think were in "HKCU\Comm\RasBook".
Once you've done that, try entering the Orange UK settings manually (as provided by mousey), and it should work?
Also Orange UK Have Never Released An Update To Their Shipped Roms So That Means Theres No Upgrade Tool And Therfore You Won't Be Able To Flash Your Device With A UK Orange Rom.
Cheers
This is the same for a UK tmobile rom...there is no offical release so you will not be able to roll back to your shipping uk rom.

this should be the UK ROM:
http://rapidshare.com/files/17338987/HER_ORRO_123702_1060400_WWE_SHIP.exe
Recently I had to return a Hermes to Orange and I used the components from this to restore my device to their OS etc.
if for whatever reason that turns out not to be the UK one (it should) then I have it on my computer and can send it to you somehow.

I also would be very interested in the UK orange ROM. I would also really appreciate if you could send it to me.
I am now downloading what is on your rapidshare link, but it appears to me to be the Romanian one.
I Would Also Like The Original Orange ROM As It Would Come In Handy If I Ever Have To Take My Phone Back In For Repair.

I just looked and that is the ROM version I have; I've installed it on a PDA and it's in english; how can you tell it's Romanian exactly?

Go to your "Home Page" in IE, tries to go to orange.ro, also in regional settings it is set to Romanian
Could Someone Extract The Connections Settings CAB From An Orange ROM As This Would Be Really Helpful To Anyone Changing Their Phone Images.

that means I've sent Orange a PDA with the Romanian ROM... just as well it was a swap!
to be honest though... if that's the only customisation difference, it'd be trivial to rectify that by changing the setting post-install

Anybody who have the original orange UK Rom not this one from orange romania? I need it, please let me know

I've finally managed to get WM6 on my 3100
However took the opportunity to dump the rom I was using before hand just in case...
This rom was the rom the phone was shipped with (UK SPV m3100), however I had used pof's v2 unlocker when I first got it to unlock it, would this have modified to rom in anyway? Or just the radio rom?
So I have a (what I believe to be) a UK m3100, I have a Part02.raw (written with no errors) if anyone would like to reconstruct it.
Hi, i have to know if updating my ROM (1.43.206.4) to 1.72.206.3 from HTC website can affect the phone being unlocked. I would also like to know how to upgrade my Manila from 2.5.1920 to a better one that supports Sense in landscape.
The cell on restart reads O2, is there anyway to get rid of that screen????

Your Manila version will be upgraded at the same time you upgrade your Rom if it is build in! not every Rom Upgrade have a new Manila version, but the majority have. Way not take a cooked Rom thy have the latest manila version?

@ Kurt Willems
Thanks for your answer but when i said unlocked, i meant that my cell is already "unlocked" right now (using another network in India). What i need to know is whether the ROM upgrade will "Lock" it back to O2 since the upgrade that i will use reads:
ROM Version:1.72.206.3 for O2 only
NOTE: This update is for O2 UK devices currently on ROM version 1.43.206.4 only. Users with devices on ROM version 1.48.405.2 please click here (on the official HTC site)
So will this upgrade "LOCK" my phone back to O2???
and I guess i should ask a complete question.............please tell me which ROM to go for apart from the one mentioned above............i dont wanna brick my HD2
The complete specs are as follows:
OS Version 5.2.21864 (21864.5.0.81)
Manila Version 2.5.19202525.0
ROM Version 1.43.206.4 (70315) WWE
ROM Date 11/06/09
Radio Version 2.04.50.22_2
Protocol Version 15.26.50.07U
Okay, I sea more clearly now what you mean.
unfortunately I don't have a idea if it will lock again your device. In Belgium we don't have locked device so I don't have experience on this.
And I will not give you a wrong information.
Sorry!
no it will not re lock your device. Once unlocked, its permanent.
yes you can change the o2 splash screen. flash a different rom (some cooked roms dont have them, some do, all oficial ones do, flash a t mo one, you get a tmo splash, flash a generic htc one, you get a htc splash) or you can make your own, see my sig and many threads like it.
@ Kurt Willems and Samsamuel...............thanks a lot. There is one more thing that i need to know; i read somewhere that a wrong radio can damage the cell bad........wanted to know if the following Update would work on My existing ROM:
RUU_Le2_UK_1.72.206.3_Radio_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Signed_LEO_Ship (this is the ROM update file)
Existing :
OS Version 5.2.21864 (21864.5.0.81)
Manila Version 2.5.19202525.0
ROM Version 1.43.206.4 (70315) WWE
ROM Date 11/06/09
Radio Version 2.04.50.22_2
Protocol Version 15.26.50.07U
your current version tells us that you do not have a 'tmous' hd2, so you do not need to worry about the radio bricking your phone. That only applies to tmous hd2s, you have a 'regular' hd2.
Ok bascially my hd2 is locked to 02 and has an 02 rom (i.e. Displays "02" when booting) but I want to update it to the generic official rom and not the official 02 rom (long story)
I know my phone will remain locked on 02 but can I go to a generic rom without risk of bricking or is there some sort of security in place that means the phone has to have an 02 or a cooked rom installed?
Thanks

Take a look at this:

Follow the process A,B and C
That will get you to the stock 3.14 ROM.
I used the 2GB microSD card which came with the phone and the CID was the one mentioned in B.O.2 so I was able to do it for free.
When you say "locked on O2" have you tried other sims? I've been with O2 for years and never been locked to them, I often use an orange PAYG sim for Orange Wednesdays and I've used a friend's Voda sim to test something before too.
Tyvm that is the anwser I was looking for
for a nice bit of reading - * HERE *
If your O2 phone is running ROM version 1.48 or 1.72, then you can simply run HSPL2 then flash HTC stock ROM 1.66WWE. 1.66 is the same as 1.72 without the guff.

Well if O2 are anything like T-Mobile UK, then there is their Web'n'Walk software. It doesn't take 3+ months to bring out the 1.72 ROM based on the 1.66 ROM without some major mucking about.

Ah thankfully the O2 ROMs are very clean, and in my experience stable.
Other than the O2 APN settings app, and the O2 splash screen before the horrible orange MS one, that's about it.
