HTC Victor/Diamond - Stock - German - 1.93.111.2 - ROM - here at official T-mobile Germany www.
http://www.t-mobile.de/fremdcontent/1,2790,123416,00.html
I can not say you what is new in that ROM, because it is in German and I'm waiting in English But may be somebody will be interesting with it.
Enjoy!
PS: Sorry, It's my 1st thread, if I made something wrong please let me know.
Anyone know when this is likely to be available for UK customers?
T-Mobile are so unfair as it looks like the whole of Europe has it except for the UK!!
Its available on the Czech T-Mobile site and now Germany!!
Come on T-Mob UK, Bring the UK MDAs up to date as well....

Be polite
Joking. Today I sent e-mail to T-Mobile UK with question when will be available new T-Mobile MDA Compact IV ROM, preferable 1.93 or higher. When I'll receive an answer, it will be posted here.
PS: either T-Mobile MDA Compact IV doesn't presented AS A MODEL! in software download section at http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/phone-support/software-updates/
Its ridiculous how the UK customer base gets treated
We are always last to get these sorts of updates. The really annoying thing is that with the Stock ROM the phone is almost unusable!
Its so slow and the battery drains so quickly. Hence people have to resort to non-recommended ROMS to get over the issues.
I would much rather have the official ROM on my phone.... But a prerequisite to that would be that its a decent/working version of the ROM!
COME ON T-MOBILE UK, do the right thing for ONCE!!!

Today, I got an answer from T-Mobile UK
Unbelievable
"Thanks for your email Alex, asking me when the version 1.93 or higher on MDA Compact IV will be available with us along with the new software for PDA and the manual.
I'd like to tell you that as of now we have version 1.37 for compact IV and we haven't released 1.93 version with us. Also I wouldn't be able to let you know when this version will be available."
Sorry to raise an old thread, but this reply from T-Mobile is rubbish. I had my Diamond in for repair (overheating, they just replaced the battery - still doing it ) and they upgraded the ROM to 1.93.110.3 and Radio 1.00.25.16.
That was on the 6th November!!!
Keep pushing them! Esp. as I'd like a copy of this so I can flash something else, but still have the original in case of (more) warranty work.

martins40, do you have HTC Diamond or T-Mobile MDA Compact IV? Was it in UK?
T-Mobile Compact IV. Standard UK stock from my local T-Mobile store.
Since the new firmware sucks for me, I wanted to ask how to restore the old version 1.37. I want to do a restore to the original T-Mobile firmware without some hacked SPL etc.
So what do I need and where do I get it?
Original German 1.37.111.3
Updater
Anything else?

First:
I meant the above mentioned new 1.93.111.2, which has an autostarting ActiveSync, uses more battery on my device and has the Opera landscape mode bug. So there is no reason for me to stick to the new one.
Second:
Thanks very much! That is really really the original, not hacked, warranty-friendly ROM?

Now that the official WM6 upgrade has been released for the D810, does anyone have any updated information as to whether it will be released for the P3600 and if so, what time frame?
I don't believe HTC has agreed to release it. Why don't you just flash hard-spl and a nospl version of it posted here?

I'm just being cautious. I'm on T-Mobile USA and developed SMS sending problems with the official WWE GPS upgrade, so I'm now hesitant to try a ROM not intended for my P3600. Perhaps if someone on T-Mobile USA has successfully used the D810 WM6 ROM, I'd be willing to take a chance. I sure would like HTML capable email!
Their excuse...
Hello Sir,
The network partner from HTC did not request the upgrade for the Windows mobile 6 for the P3600, that's why unfortunately the HTC P3600 will not have this upgrade.
Thank you for your enquiry, Should you have any other problem, please do not hesitate to call us. Your Local number can be found at http://www.europe.htc.com/support/csbyphone.html

You just need a setup cab file for t-mobile's settings here in the US. I'm on cingular so I don't have one off hand, but let me search for ya...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=42298&d=1182761296
I think that's what you'll need... And of course you can always flash back to your original wm5 rom if needed...

Thank you, but all the settings are correct and everthing else (MMS, EMail, Internet, etc) works. The only setting I've found for SMS is the Service Center Number and that's correct. Receiving SMS works and sending works from some some areas - just not where I live.
So installing hard SPL and then flashing the non SPL ROM is all that's required to update to the D810 WM6 upgrade?
Yes, however after reading some of the posts here I question if the non-spl roms posted are in fact, non-spl roms. I will make a proper safe version of this update to flash when I get home in about an hour or so and post it up...
There are 2 others posted, but I don't know that they are safe as there were actually two spl's in the release and it's possible the posters only removed 1.

Thank you, that would be nice for all those P3600 owners that are getting into flashing trouble.
Any news?
Did anyone make a safe WM6 upgrade for p3600 yet?
read the posts! there are many wm6 roms overhere.
I'm new to this forum, which is a great one. I might be selling my 8525 to a serviceman stationed in Germany.
I currently have VP3G's latest WM6 ROM on it, but I'm not sure if that's the best one to use (or is it?). I think he is using T-Mobile, but I'm not entirely sure (will find out and update this thread).
Can anyone recommend me a WM6 ROM?
If it were me I would load the OEM ROM and be done with the matter. This way any questions he has can be directed towards At&t, google, or his carrier and not you.

I would do that, but I did advertise it as WM6, so I can't back out on that now.
Load the ROM in this link - he can change his own carrier settings..

The question is if the serviceman in Germany speaks even German!
Is it an US soldier stationed there? Then he might be happy getting the device in English! If not, ask him what SERVICE PROVIDER he is using over in Germany and install the correct ROM. As far as I know: all of them have a WM6 version out there!
You also should inform him about the US keyboard and provide him with the keyboard fix cab for 8525.
Use Schaps 3.57a in Germany with Eplus as Provider and it works without problems, better to say unbelievable good!
Thanks again Schaps!

good question. I would like to know too
I have phone the oem spl at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2324837#post2324837 just need to know the version to install now
Don't worry. I returned my previous phone with a Dutch T-Mobile ROM and they didnt notice. They just reflashed it / swapped it out....
well tmobile pulled me up on a flashed n95 and said it wasn't in warranty so dont want to risk it again.
My friend had 1 and when i flashed hard spl for him his was on 1.37
Just put that rom and the 1.37 stock spl and it will do the job.
Just 1 quick question why do you want to return the diamond? any problems?
returning it for the touch pro cant stand the crap battery life. Plus had a vario 3 and cant get on with out a keyboard.

Sorry to go off topic but just on Monday I asked UK T-mobile about the Touch Pro and they had no idea of availability. Are you suggesting they are now available?
i rang up today i they said they had them in but some of them called it the vario 4 or some called it the vario dimaond, but they said it was 89 quid on flex 35

SPLs are HTC produced.
No operator has it's "own" private SPL (afaik).
So SPL version 1.01 (random number) is exacty the same for all operators.
okay, so i'm not realy into all this hardspl-stuff ;D
i thought it was also providing me from flasing original HTC-Stuff on branded phones ;D
sry for newbie question its my first WM
but thank you for stating this out ;-)

Hard SPL won't allow you flash any other SPL..
You'd need a Soft SPL (sSPL) to do that.
Basicly you take the Hard SPL kit.
Replace the hard-SPL nbh with a factory-SPL.nbh and flash that.
(don't know if anybody has posted any "factory-SPL.nbh" for diamond yet)
After flashing the factory SPL you can reflash your shipped ROM to bring the device into Factory condition.
okay so i mixed up with soft and hard spl...
so thanks again, now i got it!(i hope ;D)
Hello Guys!
Since my Vario IV is with its original ROM not as fast as it could be, I want to install another ROM.
But before I do that, I need the original T-Mobile Germany rom, so that I can install this again, if I have to send the phone back for some warranty-causes, or if I don't like the new modded Rom.
So, is the original one released yet or is there any way, how I can extract and maybe release it?
The other thing is that I don't really know which rom I should install then, since I'm quite new in the xda-business. There are so many roms out there. I'm basically looking for a factory HTC-rom, that hasn't installed much stuff from the start. It should just be faster and has the original htc manila interface, not the ugly T-Mobile one.
edit: And the new rom should be German.
I hope you guys can help me!
Thanks!

For further official T-Mobile downloads, can you tell me how I can get to this site, without having the link?
I found it.....
Problem is, I need the stock rom for the mda VARIO IV.
Do you have a link for this, too?
-I know, the thread is posted in the wrong section-
It's seems that VARIO ROm is not presented at t-mobile.de yet.
you may check here (I don't know German) http://www.t-mobile.de/shop/handy/0,4855,2963-_10093-0-1-4,00.html
May be you'll find something helpfull. Or you can write to service support t-mobile and ask about ROM.
Wrong forum, this one is for the HTC Diamond, what you have is the HTC Raphael. You may have a look there.
thank you guys!
you also need original Boot-Loader from T-Mobile !!!
Hi all,
I am new here and I have been snooping around. This is a great forum.
anyway, So on tuesday I recieved my rogers HTC touch diamond with a 3 year term extension. The phone came in WIMO 6.1 FRENCH. I was a bit pissed because I'm pretty sure that I specifically asked for the english version. After reading another forum post, it seems another user ran into this issue with rogers. they don't seem to carry the phone in english.
I wanted to return the phone but then i stumbled upon xda developers and hard spl'ed the phone and loaded new roms on it. the thing runs pristine now. I am in love with this phone. I do want to keep it but I dont want my 3 year lock-in with my carrier.
So, I was wondering if anyone has a dump of the french version rogers rom for the diamond? this way i can revert it back to manufacturing defaults and return it within my 30 day trial window and then just buy one BNIB off ebay or someone off howard forums.
can anyone help me out here?
I also got a French ROM on my Rogers Diamond. They do have english versions as well though. If you do a search you will find a link to the english Rogers ROM.
My guess is that they would not check if the ROM was supposed to be french or english. They would just check that it is a stock ROM and spl.
Check this thread for the English version:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455347
To restore back to orignal state,
1) Flash the OS ROM
2) Flash the original radio
3) Flash the original splash screen
4) Finally, use the Soft-SPL method to change the HardSPL to the original Rogers SPL
5) Return it

thanks for the reply. I hope you are right about them not checking.
the contents of the box have french documents. I hope that they dont clue in
well I guess I'll give that a go. I hope they they dont charge me the $200 policy for used or damaged returns. but if they do its worth not having to lock-in for 3 years.
