All,
I bought and US UNLOCKED HTC Diamond.
When I try to download the ROM from HTC US it displays "Sorry... download is not suitable for your device".
I can't download the ROM from any country. According to HTC support my phone is from US however they do not inform how to find out where I can download an "unlocked" ROM.
Is there any non-carrier branded US version official ROM I can download?
I installed and modified version and my wifi stoped working, it does not make sense, anyway I want to install the original one just in case.
Thanks a lot
no firmware for htc diamond us unlock
same here... I have the diamond gsm us version...htc us doesn't have touch diamond unlock in their site...so I think there is no support....I don't know if it worth to flash custom rom or stay with the official rom...any suggestion?
They don't allow to download in India as well!!!
What a stupid update if no1 can download it!!!
hi
Do a search on the diamond forum it has a thread with a collection os S/N for firmware for all over, us, india, ek, etc. or just take a look at the xda-wiki it has a stock pile of all offical htc rom for all phones kept on hand for chefs and for others who are unable to download it.
also make sure u got hardspl on ur phone as usual: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Diamond_Upgrades
I also have a US 3g version of the diamond that was unlocked. I contacted HTC about support for roms/fixes and they said that the product is sold by Brightpoint in the US. Baiscally I was told SOL. HTC said it would only release a rom/updates for the US version of the diamond if Brightpoint requested it. I asked them for contact info for Brightpoint, but they said they didn't have it! ANyway, there are loads of great roms here on xda to choose from. Just make sure you read and follow all the sticky threads related to flashing. Let me know if I can help out with anything.

Then you must sit and wait, because if you get the message this is not for your device the rom isnt uploaded yet by htc

Or: If you have a branded Diamond (like me), you'll never get the ROM updates from HTC. They check the serial and know that it is a branded one .

yeah but hey why do you guys need that rom when you have got far superior roms available on this very site
strange, shouldn't they be directing their questions to HTC? I mean, they are talking about official ROMs and download locations on official HTC site...
i m also from india d problem with indian diamond s that it has a 7206A chi whereas worldwide processor chip used is 7601A i also heard that indian verson r not 3g its only 2g so i am also afraid to upgrade bcoz it would brick my dvice i read in forum that we can upgrade rom but expect radio part how much is it true i dont know but we need some experts comment which will help us
be careful with that rom not sure why but they say
* Once you proceed with the upgrade, the system can not be downgraded again.
Mine is not branded it came from HTC and is unlocked so why would they say this?
You need to install hard-spl first before you could update the roms found in this forum.
Regards,
Carty..
Also, first search for the Indian 2G ROMs in this forum to keep ot handy in case if you brick your device.
Before trying out other ROMs, first update the Radio to the latest one, else the 2G Diamond will not allow phone functions.

Carty..

Hi guys
I'm wondering if I can install the generic European ROM here: http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=250&cat=2&dl_id=629
I didn't think I could, but it does say "This is a generic software update. Any additional software or settings provided by your mobile operator or company will be lost. If you require this customization, please contact your supplier first before upgrading." which implies that it might work.
I've seen methods with hotfixes which enable installation of the upgrade even if the ROM version is incorrect. Does anything like that work with this?
One issue is that my ROM version is 1.14.161.5 which doesn't seem to match any of the 1.19 ROMs that everyone else seems to have.
If I have to wait for an operator specific version, then where will I download that from once it's available? I've not seen anywhere on vodafone.co.uk that lists phone updates to be downloaded.
Thanks in advance
I tried but htc would not let me pass serial number page saying it wont suite my phone
INstall HSPL from the ROMs section and you should be ok
Hello,
I bought a new fantastic TouchPro2 Orange-branded.
I would like to install the lastest official no-brand ITALIAN ROM WM6.1 from the HTC website.
But I cannot download it because my serial number is associated to the Orange phones.
Can you help me to find this ROM or give me a valid serial number (so that I can use it again as soon as HTC will release the official WM6.5 ROM)?
Thank you in advance to all.
P.S. If someone is interested to my unlocked Orange-branded ROM 1.19.61.3 (51489) WWE no problem for me to share it !

Sorry for ignorance: if is the official HTC Rom, why do I need to installa HARD SPL?
your phone is set to only allow Orange ROMs - I think it's the CID
if you install HardSpl it allows you to flash ROMs not intended for your device and they also don't need to be signed
if you SIM-unlock your device using this forum you'll have the option to change the CID of your device - this will allow you to use any signed ROM even without HardSpl
but as I'm new to all this please wait till someone more experienced verifies this post
I think the previous Orange ROM was better than the official HTC ROM, anyway it was in english so this one is OK for me.
I'm looking forward to the official release of the WM6.5 HTC ROM !

sim/network locking is illegal in south africa. has been for a while now
unbranding HTC fuze and load new SA rom
I have a HTC Fuze At&T phone which I sim unlocked to use on Vodacom/MTN network. The phone software is really crappy and I was hoping that I can get a rom update on this site so that I can flash the SA version and hopefully get the GPS and browser to function.
I successfully did that for my Experia but cant find simular info for the HTC fuze or Touch pro as it is called in SA.
Any help will be great.
thanks

Good luck,
I'm curious
From what I've read only people with Hard SPL unlocked TP2s can upgrade to the official WM 6.5.
What will happen for CDMA users who cannot yet unlock their TP2's?
Will HTC provide an update tool which will work regardless or will we still be waiting for the Hard SPL unlocker in order to update.
I'm thinking the ROM update will include a tool as it wouldn't make sense to offer a ROM update without a way to actually update.
Am I wrong?

The only way of doing it is using the GoldCard way...
wow. no only cooked roms need to have your phone to be unlocked. stock roms from the carriers do not need for your phone to be unlocked.

Which is what I thought but I read a few places that T-Mobile users had to have theirs unlocked to update it to one on HTC's website.. ok well nevermind then!
The T-Mobile TP2 and the Unbranded TP2 are different devices. The official ROM on HTC's website is intended for Unbranded devices. T-Mobile users (such as myself) have to wait for T-Mobile to release a ROM for their own devices
I went to the htc support website and tried to download the official 6.5 rom.
After i inserted the SN it says that this update is not suitable for my device.
How is that possible?!?!
I have the EU GSM Version.
PS: Can someone point me to a link where i can download the official 6.5 Rom upgrade?
Thanks.

Have you tried the official post in Rhodium development section? they're same like in the htc official website.
I finally downloaded the 6.5 official update but it says its not a good vendor or something when i try to install it. I guess its not made for my region/country.
Oh well...
Hi, I faced the same problem on HTC official website. What did you do?
Thanks,
I found a good SN on a website so i could download it, but you wont be able to flash your phone to the rom because its not suitable for your device, meaning in EU only Western Europe has an update. Eastern Europe still doesn't have an update to 6.5.
I bought a HTC Touch Pro 2 in Malaysia
I went to the HTC South East Asia site but when i enter the S/N it gives me this error
"Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=736&news_id=318
Have anyone found a way around this ?
Also had this issue with a UK Orange branded TP2
I mailed HTC and got this reply;
You recently wrote us about an issue that you have encountered with your device.
To clarify your issue, you stated that you have not been able to download an update from our website.
If your device is network branded or locked your network has restricted your access to our downloads. If you wish to download an upgrade to your device you will need to contact your network. They may have customised updates available on their website.
Another possibility is that you have been trying to download a version which is not suitable for your region (as example an Eastern European ROM for a Western European device) which is not possible.
So looks like its Orange that's at fault in my case. I contacted Orange and kicked up a stink as they advertised the phone with the feature of being able to update to wm6.5. They told me that they are working on it and it should be available soon...... :/
When they get it sorted they say it'll be here;

Anyone else got it sorted on Orange already tho?

I had this issue too on the SEA Website.
I told them, they fixed it and all good now...

The branded phones need to make their own updates. Thats HTC's rule.
Some mobile operators might release updates, some might not.
Yip...had the same problem today. I brought my TP2 from NZ 3 months ago and wasnt locked to any one provider there.
Now back in Indonesia I've tried getting the 6.5 Rom upgrade on both HTC's euro website and Asia/Pacific website and have come up with the same message....bummer.
I hope it gets sorted cos I was told by the vendor that it was upgradable....
