Update doesn't work at all / stops at 1%
Short answer: Your device is needs HardSPL. See links at bottom to get it, read on to understand the difference between Standard/Developer Edition!
Long answer:If your Diamond refuses to be updated completely, you're probably missing HardSPL. The SPL is the device's bootloader. It controls what can be flashed and what not. In order to flash anything not signed by HTC or your cell operator, you will need a "custom" version, called HardSPL.
There is two versions of HardSPL, the links are at the bottom, but please continue reading the next section before downloading.
Update stops at 0%
Short answer: You're running the normal HardSPL and you're trying to flash an unsigned (not signed by olinex) ROM. You need the developer version which fixes the 0% issue. Link is at the bottom of this post. Read on to understand the difference between Standard/Developer Edition!
Long answer: First you need to understand that there are two definitions of "signed". HTC and the mobile operators sign ROMs so that the RUU flash utility allows them to be flashed. Usually this is what the word "signed" in the filename means.
Then there is another definition of signed: The developers of HardSPL introduced their own signing process. They want to ensure that people flashing cooked ROMs can rely on a certain quality standard. The normal version of HardSPL will only allow ROMs signed by OliNex to be flashed. If the ROM you are about to flash is signed, it will say so in the thread you got it from. If it isn't signed, you will need the developer version of HardSPL. That one will allow any ROM to be flashed. Get it at the bottom of this posting.
A note on this: The signing process by olinex makes sure that the ROM you're about to flash won't brick your device. It doesn't mean all other ROMs are necessarily evil.
Update stops at 5%/Invalid Model ID is displayed
Short answer: The model ID hardcoded in the ROM image doesn't match the ID of your device. Read on for a fix.
Long answer: Don't Panic. Your Device isn't broken
Each Diamond Model has it's own ID. My German MDA Compact IV is a DIAM200. Other models are DIAM150/DIAM300/DIAM100....
Now ROMs might be configured to be flashable to a specific Model ID only, even though technically they would work fine on any Model ID.
In that case the ROM needs to be "reconfigured" - this process works for full ROMs as well as Radios.
If you are running a foreign Version of Windows or have Regional Settings other than English US configured, please set them to English U.S. temporarily. Otherwise NBHUtil will not function correctly.
First you'll need OliPro's NBH Util (0.92 works for the Diamond).
Fire it up, switch to "Extract NBH"
Select the nbh of the ROM/Radio to be flashed and hit Go
Extract the components you need. Radio/Splash/OS. If there's an SPL in there, you can safely discard/ignore it. You have HardSPL for that.
Make note of the Target CID, Version, Language and Chunk Size. FYI the Model ID is the problematic setting here. If it says DIAM10000 and you have a DIAM300 you're screwed.
Switch to the Build NBH tab and select the Diamond as target
Note how the Model ID is preset to DIAM*****. The wildcard allows any device
Change target CID, Version, Lang & Chunk size to the values you wrote down.
Select each saved component under the NBH items
Hit Build NBH and save the file as RUU_signed.nbh to a folder of your choice and flash it with the DiamondCustomRUU.exe or ROMUpdateUtility.exe
Donate to OliPro because he just made your device useful
Hope I could help

That looks like a problem with your system. Do you have the latest .NET Framework installed? Do you have another computer or a clean installation you can try on?
Yes, ı try it several computer but there is no success? could you please do modified nbh file for my diamond200? This will be good solution
I solve my problem, the problem is language setting, when i set my language settings to English, everything is fine
Thanks for your help.

Do you mean your Windows XP regional settings ?
Yes, you are right.
Why don't you build a DIAM***** nbh file and put on this forum!
For many got it can be a general thing for all users!
because you need a different .nbh for each ROM in the forum and i don't think he wants to do that...
mihaixl: Just what racerx_ said. Would you rather have the single fish or learn how to fish yourself ?
dtosun: thanks for the involuntary debugging help. i added a note to the original docs.
maybe a mod can cleanup the postings?
Tones thanks for this, but i have not done it yet, i don't know which one to pick, i have the ERROR 294, and the update stops at 1%
not 5 or 0
should i go with the olnix rom then the HK version?

You need HardSPL, yes. I updated the original posting. Please follow the Guide For the 1.93 HK WWE ROM you need the developer edition.
HARDSPL works thanks, but only thing now is that i miss my TF3D bottom effect, the moving tiles don't move anymore.
this is because of the HK rom.

Thank you. mhm nice warm fuzzy feeling.
I just updated the original posting, I tried to make things more clear and easier to understand. Everyone: let me know if something doesn't make sense to you.
Mods: I'll risk sounding selfish. Wanna stick this? with proper care it might evolve into a basic ROM flashing FAQ... Maybe I'll port it over to the Wiki as well...
I realize there's _ a lot _ stuck already, but a lot of that could be consolidated in as little as 2 or 3 index threads. I'm willing to do that, please contact me via pm if you want.

OS: 5.2.19209 Build 19209.1.0.2 base on Chinese ROM (crazybian @ asuspda.net)
SYS: From swtos (xda-developers.com) and vivi @ pdamobiz.com
Rom date: 2008/4/3

Download Links:
Outdate and deleted
New flash tools. Passwd is 'p526club'.
Instructions:
1. Backup your data. Copy the xml network configuration file in \Windows to your PC. (File name look likes install.xxxxx.xml)
2. Flash HK ROM version 6.1.6 HK by using the official tools, download from Asus Official site or
here. This for making your boot loader to be 6.1.6 HK version. (It's the important step, unless you'll brick the device).
3. Flash my new WM6.1 Rom using the new tools. Double click the flashrom.bat and follow the instructions.
4. Wait until 100% completed and your device will reboot to new OS.
5. Copy the network configuration files back to \Windows and you can setup your GPRS, MMS configuration.
Recommended: You should not restore PIM from WM6.0 backup file. This will bring your device to unstable state.

Czech : velice dobrý, funguje na 100%. Zadny problém.
any idea how to flash to official ROM ?
so far so good with the custom ROM, want to know just in case
Here you go, check the countries.

By the way, the genius that is Somphon_r has now done another 4-5 versions since this one, I am currently using Version P526_WM61_26_Clean, and radio ROM P526_Radio_445 with out any issues. Waiting for a mirror to dl wm61_27_clean as well. ( From the Thai sites)
Obviously, I may have been lucky, but Somphon, has been more than helpful, for all kind of issues. Good friend to have on your side. But you still have to flash at your own risk.

hi, thanks for your reply.
I have the official rom, but everytime i tried to flash, always give a wrong ext error.
Used to be able to fix this by editing .ini files, but its somehow not working now.
btw, also tried to remove thai initial from startup, before, threaded sms stopped working. Its working fine after i put back thai initial into startup. Something to do with font service ?
update....
feel bored at office, then tried to download official firmware again, this time it works! (only need to edit .ini to ZHH)
plenty strange but not complaining
btw, looks like the mighty somphon released yet another update !

you can try d/l-ing the newer rom version (2.81) from the link i posted few days ago (pdamobiz). There are few mirrors for this version. Rapidshare for sure is working.
currently using this version, so far so good.
Unfortunately I can't get this one to work for me, every time I try to update, it errors with 'FUU has stopped working' and thats that. I might try again at the weekend.
Keep up the fantastic work Somphon_r!
I am not sure if it is Vista thing or a mistake that I am making, but all the others worked OK.
I have just had a quick look and the .ini has .wwe and THA, is that where I am going wrong. Change the THA to ZHH?

What i did last time is: I flashed HK ROM version 6.1.6 HK, and then replaced the file in the extracted HK ROM folder with one from somphon, and then flash for second time.
Since I already edited the .ini file when flashing with HK rom, the second time did not complain anything.
Thats it. hope it works for you !

the problem may lie with the file 'flash.dio' itself, meaning the file Football uses to flash is different from the one released. The rom date and version may not have been changed on the one released.
i tried flashing different versions of official 'flash.dio', from version 16, 22, 23 to 24, each time the rom date and version will change, thus i reach the conclusion that the problem lies in the 'flash.dio' that Football released.
nontheless, this still remain only to be my guess until Football respnds.
great many thanks to Football and his team for coming up with this 6.1 version, very much appreciated!
Many thanks for this release - much appreciated. There may be a couple of bugs in it though but I will report back later - I want to ensure it is not something I have done wrong. One issue though is when you connect to Wifi, the connection info on the top bar is blank so you need to use Wifi settings to see the connection info.
I also have the same issue where the OS information is not updated - it still shows Rom revision date: 20070502 and ROM revision:v1.00.24 even thought it has been updated to WM6.1.
Yes it`s great!Thanks a million!
waiting for the bugs fixed edition...

I've this problem, too.
I've seen that the WM6.1-download has only the files
chain.lst
flash.dio
Are there no newer version of the files
EBOOT.bin
EBBOT.nb0
superipl.nb0
???
Is it possible that the ROM-Version comes out of this files?
I've used the old files from the original 1.00.24. Is this correct?

I dont think the ROM-version comes out of the files you mentioned above, at list not from the EBOOT files, I do not know what functions the superipl file serves though.
I have tried flashing earlier ROMS without the above 3 files and the ROM-versions change accordingly, leading me to believe ROM-version is hard-coded in Flash.dio and the version which Football released is not is not the version he screen captured with, he is bound to have a few working copies of 6.1 ROM around his desk :-D
If you read russian, you may want to browse the original 4pda thread (link in Football's first post), fellow users there have reported the same problem, but i still cant make out Football's reply to them, even with the help of babelfish :-D
After a few installs and hard resets, I know have this rom working quite well. I love the included SDHC patch as my 8GB SDHC card works perfectly. Thanks for this.
Okay, I have had to go back to WM5. WM6 was working fine for a couple of days until an application was hanging. I did a soft reset and the device hard reset instead! This has happened once before in the 4 days of testing this WM6.1 release.
If this stability could be cured then I would be using WM6.1 as I really liked it when it was on. I just rely on my n311 too much to take a chance with it just now.
Still stable without problem,Thanks a lot
I flash my acer n311 to WM6.1 for 4 days an d still happy with the stable and smooth working.
But still wait for corrected rom version in the next fixed from our hero Football.
Thanks
I've flashed to WM6.1 and the device has been working very well since.
The only problem I encountered was that I could no longer run my GPS software. It kept saying insufficient memory. This was with no programs running, using the default configuration after upgrade.
Using SKTools, I saw that "Voice Command" was automatically included as part of the startup programs. When I removed this from the startup list and soft reset, there was no more problem with low memory.
Thanks much.
thanks football
New versionof rom availible in first post!
How much ROM memory do you guys have free after upgrading? I have 9MB free wich seems very littlle .
Hoo La!!! Good news to make people happy!
Waiting for Football-message everyday.
It is wonderful job.
Thanks a lot for your hardwork and share.
God and your goodness bless you!
hi everyone!
can anybody tell me how to get the spectec 820 wlan card working with this rom?
i had problems with installing the card under wm6 too so i had to downgrade to wm5... but would like to have that fine new 6.1 on my acer n310 working with wifi.
spectec users - can you share your experiences?
any alternative wlan drivers working with that rom?
big thanks in advance!
Thanks for this. I really like it, however, I have 3 problems:
1) The device MAC address is set to 0.
2) BlueThooth doesn't work. I get the message that there is not enought memory (about 70 mb is free though) and I need to recet the device, which doesn't help. I also have tried to make a hard recet with no help.
3) After a hard reset there is this dialog that updates or whatever and then reset the device. Something is wrong with this process as it makes a hard reset bringing you back to aligning the screen and start from begining. Sometimes this goes on for a couple of times before you get it up and running.
I fixed the BlueThooth issues by upgrading the ROM.
I downloaded this file (http://www.mediafire.com/?fiwiwvsymdb), removed flash.dio - which was the final line - from the chain.lst file (you can edit it with notepad incase you are a noob) and flashed the bios.
Thanks goes to potatohead for uploading the file and silver surfer for suggesting it in the first place.
EDIT: I uploaded the rom only in a file with no OS image at http://www.mediafire.com/?bgpnwznmjei
Scared
Hello. I've never flashed this model.
First, I downloaded the file from RapidShare. I uncompressed each file in a SD Card with this structure:
\ACERN300
chain.lst
flash.dio
Later I pressed the two upper hard-buttons (Task + Messaging) while I pressed the soft-reset button. Then I pressed the power button for 5 seconds and the PDA started to "download from SD Card". Some progress bars appeared and the PDA restarted in a few minutes. The Windows Mobile 6.1 logo was displayed and when the OS was about to show the Today Screen, it hung here and doesn't even the Start menu.
It shows only the Windows icon in the title bar, with the WM 6.1 logo at the same time.
What did I make wrong??? Am I missing some other files in the SD Card? Did I flash it correcly?
Thanks!
2 more mirrors for 6.1 v2.00.01

BTW, an off topic question, isn't our Cavalier a "he"? 'cos I've seen somewhere addressing him as a "she".
lets pray that Erofich will find a way to fix the setting issue
BTW
profile oso cannot work in setting

where the ruu?
I'm downloading it, but will not be able to test it until tonight. Gonna have to attend a meeting soon. Will keep you informed If finding any more bug, apart from known ones.
Edit: I just saw a new post by Erofich in the previous thread, maybe I'd better wait a little until you try the new way with shellcelog.dll?
I just went home and flashed my Cava with your rough ROM. First of all, it didn't brick my phone That says, the ROM basically is done, only some issues left to address, and they're as followed:
+ Sounds and Profiles problems as known; Selecting Sounds gives me the "Setting couldn't be opened" but doing the Profiles does allow me to open it; however, I can't either edit any profile or switch among them. The overall system sound is pretty low, may be because of this setting issue.
+ Beam applet inside Connections is able to be opened, but can't be saved when the option's checked, giving the "Settings couldn't be saved".
+ Accessibility applet can't be opened also, giving the error related to accessib.xml, saying that it can't be loaded.
+ Unlike WM6.1 HTC Excalibur I used before, Contacts just doesn't display contacts I've stored on SIM. I also checked the registry key, which is ShowSIM under HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\ , the value is 1 which's supposed to show SIM contacts as it should, but It doesn't.
+ The OS is not application pre-unlocked, that's not a prob, but maybe the reg key 0000101b under HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies should be pre-changed to 1 to ease the unlock procedure after each HR. You know, to unlock it, PC connection is neccessary to run the tool, so when we're not near one, our apps just boo at us challengingly
+ The Java Manager is probably out of date, I got a new one and it's proven that It's usable with most of java apps I've tried to installe. I couldn't do it with the one that came with the original WM6.0 Cava ROM. Just guess this one is the same, 'cos the version and icon look pretty much identical.
+ After using for a while, when I go to Start menu, out of the blue, the two softkey letters on the bottom bar are just vanished, I can still press them with guess though.
+ The Streaming Media tool seems to be un-usable, 'cos I've tried both WIFI connection and Wired connection (with my PC to the NET, and my Cava to it), but I just can't get it to play any youtube file on m.youtube.com (which it's supposed to be able to handle this).
+ Just my suggestion, but in the official release, maybe you can consider adding those useful tools to the ROM, on my previous WM6.1 Excalibur, they were pre-intergrated and quite useful. I'll attach (some of) them here as well. Here's the list:
. ClockOnTop: http://www.2shared.com/file/3918722/1cac6006/ClockOnTop_QVGA_WM5.html
. SRS WOW XT High Definiton Sound: http://www.2shared.com/file/3918721/85a531bc/SRSWOWHDv12850.html
. Esmertec Java Manager: http://www.2shared.com/file/3918712/378133c5/EsmertecJbed_2008022231.html
. PIE download plugin: http://www.2shared.com/file/3918731/9cbe00fd/SN_PIE_Download_Plugin.html
. Opera Mini 4.1 (requires Java manager- Esmertec, but is a great alternative for PIE): http://www.2shared.com/file/3918738/e562b859/opera-mini-latest-advanced-int.html
Just out of curiosity, why wouldn't you port another newer build of WM, say 19513 or something? 'cos I've seen somewhere in this forum about some new builds for WM-based Smartphones. Maybe those builds are just incompatible with our Cava or something?
Edit: having some prob with the file attaching system, so I'll upload them onto some other file upload service, and just post links to them here.
good work
I threw my cavalier in a corner for nearly 5 onths and now im back on it thanks to this wm 6.1 youve worked so hard to bring us. Thanks. Hopefully i can help by letting out some problems im having with it.
-cant connect to a secured wifi
-couldnt install apps until i did another app unlock but i guess that's normal.
-And have to manually add txt messge call center didnt upload from carrier or sim. Tried to manually add it but only gives errors.
-Also i dont see the built in msn messnager tool i had. Does anyone know where i can find a cab for it?

I'm having probs with sending SMS, seems message center has not been added as you said. I believe MSN messenger has been replaced by Windows Live in WM6.1, however I don't see it too. I don't use this much so I hardly noticed the absence.
*********************************
Jerome! has released a beta rom - see below for details - please help to test
*********************************
I noticed that a P750 Kitchen was released at asusmobile.ru, problem is that it is Russian base.
Using the following steps I was able to compile a rom that worked, abliet one I could not understand
1) grab your preferred kitchen from http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?t=14829 ( I used Manila Version)
2) extract
3) Copy your OEM files to the OEM folder
4) Run Build_ROM.cmd from root
5) When BuildOS comes up select your packages, press play, close when done
6) When prompted to select "B" or "X" to backup or delete dump folder
7) When NB0 Kitchen starts enter password: mrtoto
8) Load ROM and select PegasusP.nb0
9) Fill in and Select ROM version ,ROM date , CPU speed or pagepool size you want and click [Pack Image].
10) Select [XPR Compression] or [LZX Compression] and click [Build NB0]
11) Wait until you see the words "ROM.NB0 complete" in the message box, Exit the nb0 Kitchen and wait until you see its done
12) Open PegasusP.nb0 in a hex editor and change the bytes at offset 00001c5c from 00 10 85 05 to 20 00 00 0a, save.
13) Extract the attached ASUS_P525_NB0_Kitchen ENG.rar, open ASUS_P525_NB0_Kitchen.exe, load your nb0 and choose fix crc.
Flash by copying to root of SD card, hold power up, voice record in, joystick down while pressing reset and the bootloader will initiate a flash.
Next step is to convert to english, I have seen a tut at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=312704 on how to translate, just wondering if there is an easier way that someone here may know of as with my limited knowledge I am likely to have missed something.
I tried dumping a rom from the guys at pdamobiz.com to use as base but packagetool would not work (no RGU?)
So anyway that is where I am at, if anyone wants to help that would be great as I reckon there is a few people out there that could do with an English P750 kitchen - I intend on getting this working at some point although time is limited.
HAt's off to the tool creators and contributors here at xda-devs, pdamobiz.com (feel like releasing a kitchen Undetect?) and asusmobile.ru.
Oh yeah if you decide to do anything I said and break stuff then don't cry to me, I have had a few bad flash's but each has recovered, YMMV.

Looks great I have a P750, and i'm looking for a good rom -- can't wait to see what you come up with
Just wondering -- are you planning on implementing Asus`Multihome too?
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=481616)
Also since its VGA will you be porting the P522w software over? (Camera, UrTime, etc.??) Just wondering cause Sorg's original one has replacement problems but they weren't as clean as the original

My plan is to make a 'clean' rom soon. All the basics should be working. When this works I'll focus on porting some applications. Feedback and ideas of which it should contain besides the Camera, Urtime, Multihome, let me know.
Again good work, are you planning on releasing your kitchen when stable?

Yes, I will, when I finished translating the OEM files, they are still Russian now. Just to make clear, it's not my kitchen, I'm modifying the work of Barin, Vivi etc etc.
Time for a bèta release - testers wanted
To digg out all the bugs I've created a beta release. I will need your help in testing and reporting bugs. Please reply in this thread when you find something odd:
Please note this is a beta release. Not intended for every day use, however, I have been running this build for a week now and it's working well for myself. There might be things that I've broken though.
Also, since this is a bèta release, I will not be held responsible for any problems on your device. Flash at own risk.
How to upgrade:
- Place the PegasusP.nb0 file on a non-sdhc storage card (128 megs or more)
- Plug in power
- Press and hold the following keys when softresetting:
Voice record - Joystick down - Slider button up (e.g. power on button)
Wait until device restarts. Do not interrupt!

Please report any issues you encounter! Except for:
Known issues:
- When clicking on softkey to open a menu e.g. contactsmenu, the size is bigger than normal.
- Core systems settings as Power, Device info, Brightness still in Russian.
- Some ASUS apps still in Russian like Asus switcher, CPU mode, Asus profiles, Wakeupsource
- Sometimes after first boot "unknown usb driver" message appears. Reflash the rom to resolve.
Nice one - testing now.

Anyone else experienced the same? I've flashed mine more than 50 times and never had this kind of error. There is a lang unlock tool available. Perhaps it has got to do with that?
I've upgraded from an Extreme Ultralite Rom VGA WWE 3.1.0.7. Perhaps you can flash this one too and check if the same error occurs?
The bootloader of my device is exactly the same. This is a radio/bootloader/gps/free ROM update, just the OS.
thanks for the same
it seems great till now
well i just wanted to ask you is there anyway we can have a manila version in vga p750.
just asking .
cause it take a lot of memory installing it with cab.
if it can be done on the Rom itself it will be great.

Here is what you’re going to need:
1.Fonts/Language support: this is the most important part. I took the required files for Arabic support from this site
http://code.google.com/p/arabicandroid/downloads/list
all credit goes to Mr. alsanad for his great code
Persian and Hebrew seem to work fine with the font I'm using right now, but I can read both, so I can't say it's 100% working.
Persian: you may want to play with it a little, maybe add newer fonts later by yourself.
Hebrew: when I search Google I found only fonts for Android 1.5. however if you find the fonts, the process should be the same
anyway, the Arabic font package I am using right now apparently can display Hebrew characters...
2.7-Zip or any program that can create “tar” files
Please note that the fonts you get in most of the cases are made for HTC android devices in mind, not for WM devices. And they require recovery mode and other stuff (I can’t explain a lot because I don’t own Android device). So we’re going to convert the file, and make it suitable for our devices.
Steps:
1.Get the fonts file and extract the content to whatever place you like
In the case of Arabic, you should see two folders:
PHP:
META-INF
System
2.Select the folders, and right click on them, them choose 7-Zip > Add to Archive
3.Make sure you choose archive formate as “tar”
4.Name the file “androidupdate” and save
5.Copy the file to you SD card: put in andboot folder
6.Installing the update: I quote this from “How to replace Windows Mobile with Android”
Place the SD card in your phone and power on your Kaiser. When you see text on your screen hold down the D-pad. D-pad is that button in the center of your up, down, left, right buttons. Keep holding down the D-pad until you see something like this appear on your screen.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
7.Choose install update: you will see then some lines and then word Installing.
8.When finished, choose quite, or soft rest.
9.You’re done
Make sure you choose the right font for your Android. Apparently each version of android requires some modifications.
You might want to add some specific keyboard. I recommend Smart Keyboard... it is super fast, very accurate, and has support for different languages, such as Arabic and Hebrew.
I tried these steps on Kaiser running VaniljEclair RLS7c with the latest kernel.
I know this guide is basically unpacking, renaming, then installing... But it might be a little hard for some people..And I hope it will help them.
Make sure you back up you date or whatever important information you have on your phone and SD card before you start.
I have uploaded the files I used for my device. these fonts are meant for android 2.1
Cheers
Duke that has got to be the best timed guide I've ever seen, just finished making up a hebrew fonts update for shar1r, lol
Excellent guide, this deserves a sticky, since it is a question that has been asked before, and will be again
I usually edit an existing androidupdate.tar using 7zip, but this method is more complete, ( my method is mostly a lazy hack ).
Awesome!! I just posted a question about this - and voila this great tutorial!
Thank you!!
Sure, no problem. glad I can help
first i gotta tell u this thread is cooool
and thank u for ur effort
but i gotta a porblem
which is first of all i couldn't download the file cuz i'm in syria and google doesn't allow to download from it

If the guide isn't working for you then you can always try a multi language build. I know both Scoot and I keep our multi language Cyanogen 6.1 based builds updated. You might want to look towards those.
Link in 1st post doesn't seem to be working for me either.
Yet i think you should change the title of the thread, something like:
How to add YOUR language to a build

Avoid return key, learn to use space. For a moment i thought i was reading a poem...
the coder apparently switched from Google code. here is the new website
http://ardoid.com/
I would recommend using generic Froyo libs as they might work. I don't have my TyTN II anymore... all my testings are on HD2.
http://ardoid.com/?p=64
most of the mutlilang builds will have native support for Arabic/Persian fonts, however, they won't look connected.
you migh need to use "libskia.so" and/or "libwebcore.so" only in this case.
Adding language support is trail and error, so give yourself plenty of time before trying this out.
I am using the libs for the Desire HD on my HD2 and they work perfectly fine.
And yeah, you can try a program called Tor www.torproject.org or Hotspot Shield www.hotspotshield.com to change your IP address.
