is there any tool to dump my HD2 stock ROM?
i don't want to change my ROM since i'm really satisfied with it, i only want to flash a newer radio (2.1 or up) in order to try to run the new android ports.
but i need it dumped in order to revert everything back the way it was if (for any reason) i had to send the phone to repair

you can just hard reset the phone if all goes bad with the android builds, shouldnt though seem to be ok, just glitchy and not very smooth,
as demon said, running android has no effect on the installed rom, you dont 'flash' android, it runs kind of like an app on top of windows, it dopesnt replace anything
yea i know how the android procedure goes, but i was talking about reverting to the old radio/SPL versions...any solutions?
when you wanna revert,
flash your original radio then run hspl2 and choose your original stock spl. that's it.

As said above, all you do is download the stock ROM and flash it , after removing HSPL, you don't need to "Backup" your stock ROM, all you need to do is either download it from one of the ROM threads here or from TMO ....
so...i can downgrade the radio without problems? then run HSPL2 to revert to the original SPL...many thanks!
so what about the ROM itself; even if i find and download it, how can revert to the original date? (settings tab/about phone/software information/ROM date) or what is that date?
another noob question what is TMO?

dont forget the hspl version is excatly the same in 2 and 3, only the installer is different, AND for non tmous users to switch back and forth between hspl and stock spl, we need hspl2 anyway because hspl3 only has stock 2.08.0000 and none of our phones used that as stock.
hspl3 was only released because tmous users couldn't be trusted to not brick themselves, and telstra users couldnt use hspl2.
This is not a 'highest version is best' situation.

Yes that is true, all good points that I had not considered ...
Since I can't figure it out anymore, what is the correct answer, I will make the question...
Have you been able to downgrade your NON ROOTED Hero from official 2.1 to 1.5?
YES or NO???? In case you're answer was YES, tell us how you did it.
I downloaded the RUU from HTC and installed it as always.. If your phone looses connection after rebooting to bootloader, you will have to reinstall the "My HTC"-driver from Device manager..
BTW. shouldn't this be in Q&A section?

what? you simply downloaded the RUU and intalled it?
What should be the problem about that?
It took 1,5 minutes to reinstall some certificates/signatures, but then it just installed as always
No, you have to use the goldcard method. But yeah, then you can downgrade official 2.1 to official 1.5 and root again.

Never used goldcard at all?
Really?
I didn't check without but you might as well be right, I thought HTC wouldn't make it that easy... Especially since all xda members warn us that if you install the update you'd never be able to root again. So wrong.
I've tried to downgrade from Chungwa official 2.1 rom, back to official WWE 2.73 and it didn't work even with the goldcard, it gave and ID error. Do you think the goldcard procedure hasn't been done correctly?

But they cannot lock you out, as they haven't made a new RUU.. So you will have to be able to reinstall the original software to update
Not sure what you have flashed, but a few people have come over to villainrom looking for help.
They definately ended up with a locked bootloader and even the goldcard method was not going to help.
Don't say you were not warned well in advanced, been threads saying do not officially update for months now.
Just download official 1.5 RUU from HTC website and install. Goldcard isn't necessary.

I have the the original HK 2.1 update. I have managed to run the RUU which you suggested above. I have also managed to locate the ROM ZIP and change it to " HEROIMG.zip" which was sucessfully detected.
The update process starts automatically and after a few minutes I get an error message - UPDATE FAILURE- saying that " THE MAIN VERSION IS OLDER!".
Please help.

So noob question: what's the difference b/t this rom and the rom the Radar shipped with? Why would people flash this one over the original?

Hey shadow,
Would installing this rom downgrade the SPL? Im trying to flash the new DFT hspl for my radar and the 2.05 SPL they include isnt flashable via RUU. Is there another way to downgrade the SPL maybe with an alternative .nbh or RUU package?
Are you going to start working on custom Radar roms now that second gen Windows phones are hacked?
Have you seen the new wp7.8 update that is coming? Its adding resizable home tiles! I believe its only availabe for current 2nd gen wp devices.

you have the TMOUS Omega? you will need to use goldcard method. so, shouldn't need to downgrade OSPL.
about ROM development... see here.
yes, i have seen WP7.8. watched the keynote. it is unknown which devices will be getting it. Tango was only supposed to be coming to Gen2 devices, but it is coming to Gen1, as well... maybe Gen1 will get lucky? only the future knows.

I suppose anything's is possible. It 7.8 is still the same windows CE kernel. Wp8 is going to use windows NT kernel, what windows 7 and 8 PC is based off of :d!
Right now I am living abroad and don't have a credit card so the materials required for the gold card method aren't easily available compared to when I lived 5 min from a radio shack. I just have to wait patiently for a RUU that includes the TMOUS Omega.

I want to ask a question. For the Tmous Omega, when you flash to stock rom, do you have to use Goldcard method? I downloaded a stock rom from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094366
And I used some RUU update utilities I had downloaded before with this rom and it starts to flash the stock rom but stops at 5 %. Now actually it seems the phone doesn't boot anymore to windows and just boots back to the bootloader. Any ideas?
I have a new Titan coming (be here Tuesday) from AT&T (warranty replacement for the caller's poor sound quality #6).
My question to my fellow US Titan's that are stuck on SPL 2.5 is:
If given another chance with a new Titan at 1.10 SPL, what would you try first to unlock it?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
We all tried the DFTs / Cotulla's SPL / HSPL and got stuck at 2.5!
But what if we'd tried the debranding method first?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Or if we had tried the HTC 2.6 SPL first?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I wonder, what would you do?
HSPL worked on my phone after several attempts. It actually did not look like it had worked, but it did. I had almost given up.
I would try and reporduce my steps to more accurately share the sequence I used, but sadly I only have one Titan.
I would debrand it with the 2.05 Europe ROM.... And then tried HSPL.
As i see its a win - win because If i don't HSPL atlease all the AT&T crap is gone and i'll have a new radio. :highfive:
I stayed stock, pushed latest OS cabs to Tango
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1736982
and use it as a developer phone (I am a dev) so I can put some stuff on it, and develop on it.
Don't really care about lack of root for this phone, waiting for WP8 which will no doubt be completely different.
Well here goes nothing!
Success!!!

:good: Good to know that you finally installed custom rom, looking at your post signature Out of curiosity, what route did you take to install hspl? did you debrand first or went straight with dft spl installation?

Oh I debranded first. Worked like a charm. After installation of the HSPL I did have to remove the battery for a few minutes, then let it boot all the way back into the EUR 2.5 ROM before I could get back into SPL mode to load custom ROM.
This new Titan doesn't seem to have the memory capacity problem and all phone calls made so far, the person on the other end has good sound quality, however, the headphone jack doesn't work! I didn't use the headphone jack prior to custom ROM, so I'm unsure if it is a ROM thing or a phone thing. After my experiences with HTC Titans, I'm sure it's a phone thing
I'm chose the Dynamics ROM to install and I haven't really checked there if others are having problems with headphone jack yet.
I'm just glad to have custom alerts tones and full control of the device I purchased instead of being prison-ed with limited control.
Here are the two available radios posted by other users. The radio "17.5006.08.27" has been reported to have issues with the US AT&T Titan so be warned.
You Flash at your own risk!! If your phone explodes and kills your entire family, that's on you.
RADIOS
17.5006
16.23
Once I find out how to extract them myself I'll post the others.
May I also add here that 17.5006.08.27 radio in general *may have* problems with Titan?
Once that was flashed, I am unable to get rid of that radio and thus, no other ROM boots on my phone any longer. Not even the one with radio 17 or stock!

This is strange, why just now this is happening considering we been using this radio version for a while since hspl became available with titan. Could it be that you got a bad flash from one of the radio v 17 that came with custom rom you flashed? Just on the weekend I flashed roms with radio v17 (WPV rom7.8 4.1) then tried nhatoa's 7.8 with radio v16 and now I'm back with WPV's v4.2 with radio17.
I think I might have had a bad flash with radio 17 then. I am not sure how to revert it though.

Yes, I was suggested that too earlier. I'm a little skeptical with goldcard as I've never taken that route.
I'm more curious in terms of what could have cause a bad flash where a radio cannot be changed at all?

I'm sure you'll share your findings if ever you find out what've cause this issue with your phone and save us this trouble of "bricking" our phone. As to the goldcard method , you're rigght to be skeptical, initially it's a hit and miss but once you got the Y cable and micro sd card going it is really quite straightforward process. I have an ATT titan so the only way to flash custom from stock is by GC method and been doing this quite regularly (being a flashaholic)

Hi Do you perhaps know if this upgrade will come to us in South Africa as we also have AT&T HTC Titans (2x)? Zune says that no updates are available.
Otherwise can the experts please enable this upgrade via the CAB sender method?

Hello guys,
Can anyone reupload radios for Titan? Links are dead.
Thanks in advance.
