I've been reading ALOT about WM6. There are many versions out there now (thanks to the awesome folks here).
This might be a dumb question, but can I switch between them without a problem? I know that some don't have radios and SPL, but does it matter? Some do have the BL (OLI), but would that prevent me from downgrading or changing later?
What about if I decide just to go back to WM5? Is that possible then?
TIA!
yes you can back to WM5

Hi everybody. I as probally most of u have a Diamond. I've been reading freaqently about Hardspl roms and such since it seems to make your diamond alot faster and better I would like to update/change my rom. As I understand HardSPL is usefull in the way that you can't brick your phone with rom flashing once you have HardSPL flashed. Am I right?
Then there is the choice of hardSPL. I've been looking at OliNex's unsigned 1.40 and OliNex signed 1.38. It seems signed is safer but Unsigned is more open, since you can flash any rom at all. I'm not real sure which one to get since I don't really know what rom seems most suitable for me.
I'm looking for a fast rom, ofcourse, most preferbly a swedish rom but I can survive with english as long as it's possible to get swedish (full and compact) QWERTY. Any suggestions on what rom I should use?
Then Radio I have kind of no idea what that is, can someone explain that real quick?
I guess i'm not the first of making this kindof thread, but please help a guy out. Thanks alot for all hard work so many of you put in to make the diamond more usefull!
Also it would be nice to be able to restore the diamond back to it's original spl and rom for warranty reasons. I have the vers and all written up. I've been looking at swifts rom, and duttys. Are those to recommend and what kind of HardSPL would I have to use to get either of them?

Hi,
Are there any Roms out here whice are made specifically for a hermes with no GSM?
i.e. Without the radio (and settings/ programs for the phone section).
FYI - I some how bricked my radio and have no way of restoring GSM so i want to make the best of a bad situation and turn it into a stable PDA!
Thx

Most cooked roms don't come with a radio anyway, and tbh, just pick any rom and flash it, because I dont think there's is one with all the settings removed.
Check the stick for active chefs, PDAcorner and CRC's are my personal recommendations, CRC's being more vanilla.

Thanks for the advice but unfortunately normal flavours do not help me. I've tried Schnaps 4.30, Crc 12.9 and MRH 9.0 but all of them still leave me with a slow, unresponsive, crash prone device (they were all fantastic ROMS before my radio went kaput).
Idealy; I would like to Rip out parts of a CRC ROM which are causing my device to crash but don't know what they are... I will have a look at some cooking posts for clues unless someone can point me in the right direction?
Hi guys,
I've done lots of research and searching but can't find a definite answer to this so i'll ask.
I'm running duttys latest V2 rom, but ever since I've changed the rom from the stock on my MDA Compact IV I keep having random dropouts of sound, this is really annoying as you can imagine! after much readingg it seems to be that the problem would reside with the SPL, anouther reason for this logic is that i've tried all the different HardSPL's and they seem to make the problem more or less freqent depending on the SPL but not disspear intirely. Now the question would be, if I have already installed the ROM I want and am happy with it, could I flash back to the original SPL and keep the ROM? or would this cause difficultys?
Thanks
Damian
Since you already have your desired ROM, you can go back to original SPL.
It should be no problem.
hi i am new to this scene although i have been hacking devices for several years so am not a complete N00b. I just want to know if i have got the right idea here:
I follow this guide: http://modmydiamond.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=26
With this hardspl (v1.24): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408621
This Radio Rom (v1.00.25.05): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407956
And this rom: http://www.duttythroy.net/download-area.html?task=view.download&cid=149
Is this right? Will this upgrade run smoothly with these options? Also i have not yet recieved my fone, will do in the next few days, it is an Upgrade from Orange UK. Will all this run smoothly on my fone? Or does it depend upon product versions etc of the software/hardware on my fone? Its just that i have been reading around all the info and have noticed that sometimes it does matter.
Thanks for any help,
James
once u hard-spl u can flash any radio and rom. not necessarily just those two.
make sure its hard-spl DEVELOPER edition.not SIGNED edition
Yep i know that but i think those are the recommended radio and hardspl for the dutty rom i have chosen.
Thanks.

If you just want to flash Dutty's ROM, those choices are OK and will work.
I tested/used a lot of Dutty's ROM's and I can say that they are solid and decent ROM's but not the fastest (fast enough though )
Read the WIKI
There's alot of Topics on radio rom's posted in the wiki
Peace

Hi, i dont mean to sound stupid and annoy you but can a few of you tell me which are the best roms for performance/features? I have read the wikis and guides, however there are too many different roms, and the guides do not fully explain the benefits of each one.
Thanks, i was gonna go with dutty's as i thought it was the most popular?

Hi! Have you tried flashing original carrier ROM & then flashing the ROM of your choice??
original carrier rom?i think i didnt do that....where i can get this original rom?is it we must flash to wm5 1st then upgrade to wm6?thanks
I hope you had Hard SPL installed.
Do a search to see if you can find your carriers WM06 rom, it doesn't need to be WM05. Search is your friend here.

Hi!
The radio ROM provides improvements on the GSM radio stack and this has effect on the GSM signal, AT command interface, GSM data modem (3G, GPRS, EDGE, HSDPA, etc...) functionality that is controlled by the Radio Interface Layer (RIL)
Please go trough this page you have plenty of information related to all Hermes related queries one may have.. Hope it will be useful for you
Just remember though that if something stuffs up while flashing the radio rom, you are pretty much gonna end up with a brick... You may be able to use the PDA functions but phone will be gone forever...
same problem
I have a dopod 838 pro. Hardspl by olipro. Flashed roms with manilla 2d and right now suffering the same problem like kahwah..
Tried already the method of flashing original rom then to the cooked rom but still the same problem persist.
Can someone give me an idea on what to do next..
Seriously guys, both of you, READ the Hermes Wiki and the Noob section, they are set as stickies at the top of the thread. I mean, come on, you have not even posted 7 posts on XDA-DEVs and you already are close to bricking your phone.
READ the Wiki first!
