Hey all,
Finally got my XDA/ Wizard sorted. Can now install ROMs. I installed WM6 but my phone didn't like it, memory wise.
Can anybody recommend a good WM5 rom while please providing a link?
Many thanks in advance.
Ok, I've done a bit more research. God these things aren't easy to figure out.
When I first got my XDA/ Wizard it had a version of Windows 5 installed which was a little buggy. I thought I upgraded but it seems to have "downgraded". It's lost a lot of the features I thought were standard. I'd like to go back to the firmware/ rom which was installed as I've found bug fixes.
I don't know which rom it was, I'm new to all this
If I could describe the boot up perhaps someone might recognise it?
When it booted up, the boot screen there was some kind of Manga/ Final Fantasy type picture of a man and woman, I think. The Windows screen was green with some sort of squiggle/ circle.
I know this is very vague but I know you guys know your stuff
I think it's the 2.26 Wizard Love ROM
Hey Mestrini,
I searched extensively, unfortunately I wasn't exactly sure what I was searching for. I'll try and find the rom you mentioned, thanks.
hello, i just purchased a htc S740, and it seems to be going very well, i would like to know if anyone can point me in the right direction for a tutorial to be able to flash the rose with another rom, as i would like to get certain java programs running which at the moment dont work. i been trawling the forums for a few days nowto no avail, and quite scared in case i brick my fone choosing the wrong tutorial!
many thanks
waiting for the answers~~
when i use th RUU to flash a new rom, met an error.
You don't have to flash a new ROM to get Java programs to run. Just install a different Java-App. Search the forum and you'll find a couple!

You could just easily flash the official HTC WM6.1 ROM to it.

Make sure it is not locked to any phone provider. If it is locked, flashing will stop before it is completed, and you'll need the original phone provider's ROM to fix this problem.
Hi All,
I have bought an HTC T4242+ via the internet from China, and when I received the phone I found WM6.1 loaded in the phone and I have a problem with it as my voice is breaking or not hearable when I do a phone call!!! I asked many people and they told that I have to upgrade the ROM but infact, I found that there is no Boot Loader in the phone and did not know how to do that, as I am new in this, I contacted my supplier who sent me a .rar file and he told me to open it to be UPR file and load it on the TFT card by a TFT card reader, then to press three buttons together, the power, Middle and green buttons until I see bar showing upgrading, then to restart the phone!!! I did all that many times but nothing happend, the bar showed no progress at all, and I still have the same ROM version with the same problems!!!! anybody can help to instruct me to how to upgrade the ROM..................??????????? I will appreciate your help guys
hey man, take a breath!
go to
Settings
System
and press Clear Storage.
try this. maybe it will work.
good luck!

This question is not related to the topic, please ask it in another thread...
Regarding the topic, beware that the T4242+ is NOT an official HTC product, but seems to be a cloned based on other hardware.
It has a Marvell 624MHz processor, while our regular, official T4242 uses a Qualcomm 7225 @ 528MHz.
Based on the pictures we can see here, the phone IS different, for instance the wheel looks different than the one we have on the T4242 (grip is much larger on the "clone").
The space between the htc logo on the front and the wheel is much bigger than on our T4242.
Even the stylus is not the same...
Therefore, DO NOT try the roms on this forum, as it will most likely result in a brick of your device!!!!
HardSPL will not work either!!!
The hardware is different (at least regarding the processor), so the devices are not compatible!
There are other people in your situation, so you should look here, and after here.
Basicly, the T4242+ and T3232 clones seem to share the same hardware, and may be compatible...
Good luck, and keep us posted!
EDIT : i don't understand chineese, but if you do, you may find what you are looking for here, as they seem to have roms for t4242+, including WM6.5...
Again, good luck!
EDIT 2 : there are comparisons between the two phones here, you can easily spot the differences...
EDIT 3 : well those pictures don't even look like my phone, and may be two clones indeed!!! lol

Thank you Blubster,
I think what I have is the clone T4242+, but when I bought it I never knew this, I thought that I am buying an original T4242+!! anyway, I contacted the supplier and he forwarded me the english ROM WM6.5 as a SMART.UPR file and he told me to load it on the TFT card then to insert the TFT in the phone and press three buttons together until the flash will start and until I see and upgrading green bar, but in my case nothing has been started! so anybody can instruct me how to load the ROM on my phone???

Please be careful not post links to warez or their related sites. Thanks!
I found this rom for the t4242+ from a chinese forum. Its a 21734 build and has integrated manila 2d(build 1818.3719). All buttons are working including wheel. Footprints tab does not work(for now)
http://sj.3zrr.com/4242/201001/2532.html
I tried to translate this rom using these files (21734 build)
http://hi.baidu.com/xulihanghai/blog/item/4d16b9ca389739f453664f46.html
and using this kitchen (3238 kitchen for clones)
http://www.load.to/dyLKs4KVeR/3238_kitchen.zip
I can extract the rom then edit the SYS and OEM language files
I put boot registry files (wich are included in the language files i posted) in ROM/XIP
Repack into new rom doesnt give any errors if i rename boot_ms.rgu to boot.rgu
But the rom wont load on my phone. cant get past the first screen. Is it cause i dont have the right boot files?
Ive tried extracting the boot files from other roms with no success.
Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks
Joe
Thank you so much guys, my problem has been resolved concerning the T4242+ and thanx Joe for publishing the new ROM

...it's not a ROM issue, it seems to be a hardware problem, since it's a clone.
I have bought a similar one, upgraded ROM, but still the voice quality in phone calls is below average.
I just changed the device to an oriignal HTC, it helped.

hey guys, i just bought my hd2 this week from ebay and it freezes up already usually when i'm trying to use htc messaging or trying to login to the facebook app, so i am seeking to fix this... i have searched through the forums and got a little bit of an idea on roms and hardspl... in my software info. it says under rom version: "Artemis A 22.0 WWE".. this is a cooked rom yes? and if so does that mean i can just go ahead and flash a different rom without having to flash the hardspl?
sorry if there's a thread on this already but i couldnt find anything that fully answers my questions
thanks in advance

It should mean that HSPL is already and still on there, but it may not be, HSPL is only needed to flash the ROM and could be removed after the custom ROM is on there ... best way is to go into the bootloader, (hold vol down, power on) and look to see if HSPL is on there, save you a headache before you flash.
If it is not on there search for HSPL3 and load'er up ...

This is what you are looking for, read it carefully and it will explain everything you need to know about flashing a new ROM.
The whole flashing process seems a lot more difficult than it seems. You can flash via USB connection or via SD. The USB connection requires a windows PC. You need to install HSPL, 3 is the latest version. HSPL allows a custom Rom. For both steps you need to have an active sync connection. You download the hspl, radio, or rom file. Open the RUU file and there will be a GUI guiding you through the process. Just read as much as you can to avoid mistakes.
thanks for the help guys... seems to have hspl after all... and the freezing issue pretty much dissapeared when i turned off htc sense and just used windows default
thanks again
