What do you mean? is it stock ROM or custom ROM?
If stock ROM, for non-branded HD2, you can go to HTC website (www.htc.com) and download from there. For a branded HD2, you can go to your carrier's website and download from there. You have to prepare your phone serial number or IMEI (for TMOUS)
For custom ROM, all custom winmo ROM here, I believe, is the latest version.
Cheers..

No, it doesnt. You have to manually update your ROM, there is no such over the air (OTA) update in Winmo's world (unlike android)

O2 v1.72.187 apps

On sourceO2 it says that you can download the latest O2 ROM. Now, I know this link isn't up and running yet, but it does give some interesting info.
The bit I'm interested in is the new applications that come with a new XDA2. It says on here you can download them, but then asks for a username/password.
Anyone have a SourceO2 account and could pull these off for us?
Thanks!
Thanks for the heads-up, doh, but when I click the link to continue... (in bold below)
Xda II ROM upgrade
The latest and final Xda II System Software is available for you to download.
New and changed in this version of software, v1.72.187:
- Incorporates end user update 2 from Microsoft
- Improved power management with the Bluetooth Manager
- O2 Active
- Improvements to listening to music or video when streaming via GPRS
Please click here to continue (links to T's & C's page and then download page)

...I'm redirected to the standard 1.60 ROM download page on my-XDA.com.
I don't have a password for sourceo2.com but I just wondered whether the download page had changed since you saw it?
Still, perhaps the update to 1.72 is imminent? 8)

Oooh, thank you M4io!
Perhaps I can get SRS working after all!
Thanks, but what I was interested in was the new apps that O2 are bundling with the latest ROM version...
me too, but I thought you could get started with 126.
If anyone wants to put the 187 on the FTP, I'll check it out.

Extract the 1.72.187 ROM image
I was wondering has anyone try to extract the ms_.nbf in the 1.72.187 update from sourceO2 website? I have tried to extract it with xda2nbftool and er2003edit (password: 0x20040305) but failed. If anyone got it, please let me know how to do it. Thank you for all suggestions and advices.
Where did you get the 1.72.197 update from? SourceO2 are still linking to the 1.60.50 update at my-xda.com.
Sorry for the confusion. I don't have the 1.72.187 ROM. I messed up by my own "folder system" . The one that I thought it is the 1.72.187, well actually, is some kind of customization ROM and I named it as 1.72.187. Sorry for all confusions I have created!
O2 ROM updates are out!!!

Updated the ROM but these won't install until "the ROM is updated".

What won't install? Where does your quoted "the ROM is updated" message come from?
The three new apps won't install.
The installer runs on the PC,
then on the XDA there is the same error each time.
Setup Error - Unable to install application, Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again.
I've upgraded to v172187,
restored by backup,
synchronised
and everything works fine.
Except this.
It could be that the restore overwrote the ROM version in the registry. Check your device information to see what version it reports. If it is incorrect, change it by amending the registry value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\3rdversion\MSYSTEM to the correct value then try the installs again.

Yeap and this is the 2nd thread i posted seeking help but so far no reply , im also thinking to install Android and use duel boot as well, but without knowing these ROM and Flash update info i dont want to do anything
Your device x.XX.720.x is a Asia/India rom device.
If you don't have a branded device, than yes you can update to this rom Asia_India_3.14.720.3
If it is a branded device you need to wait till your rom is available.
Hey guys, I'm from India too.. I faced a problem at first as I was checking on HTC global website. Latest version (v3.14.720.3) is available on HTC India website.. Download by entering serial number and enjoy!

Hmm, I have test my stock rom 3.14 NLD, and Android worked very well.
But I don't use HSPL, because HSPL and stock rom 3.14 caused lot's of problems.

nice to see you have updated your device
Okay, let get clarify some things before:
- You don't install Android on your device, but on your SD
- Better?? is a big word sir. I must say I'm a WM user fore about 8 years, and I'm now a Android user (follow the mode) fore 3 weeks.
But I must say both are different. Personally I prefer WM, but it depends on your needs, wishes, feeling, taste.
- No sir Android don't over-wright WM, you used it from your SD
- Two way's to launch Android, launching from WM; ore using duel boot (I test ons and I was't satisfy)

It depends what you have now.
.
Latest stock ROM have some updates.
- Manila 2018
- Update SMS messenger
- Some drivers are bean update.
- Update SPL version 3.03
- ...
Personally if you are on stock ROM 1.47 ore 1.66 (no custom ROM) this is a nice update.
Important is that if you upload your device to this newer stock rom is to remove HSPL in case it is installed. (Stock ROM 3.14 and HSPL aren't compatible)

[Q] Windows mobile 5 to 6

Hello, I've bought my new HTC Hermes with Vodafone logo on it.
It has Windows Mobile 5 in it, and I want Win Mobile 6.
I've did HARDSPL already, and tryied to put on new ROM, but before installation I've had error 320.
Should I install any other ROM for 6.1-6.5 or try to find special upgrade ROM?
Phone is still working!

Just be sure you have all the updates between those builds and don't forget 8862 as well.
I followed the instructions exactly and it all installed perfectly and had no problems.. But in the About Phone. Still says version 7.5?
