HELP!! How can i install operating system on my phone? Demo Version finished - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hi, I bought a HTC touch pro 2 phone a couple months back with windows mobile 6.5 on the phone and today i woke up to find that the operating system was some beta version and that it has run out so now the phone is not working. There is no information anywhere what to do.
I have tryed going on the htc site and downloading software but when i put the serial number in it says that it is not suitable
How can i install an operating system that will work or even get this version to work
Any help would be apprecitated

What an incredibly weird problem.
Your best bet* is to go to your carrier's website (rather than HTC's) and download their most current ROM.
Alternatively, you could download one of hundreds of custom ROMs here or on other sites. Just make sure you use a GSM ROM if you have a GSM phone or a CDMA ROM if you have a CDMA phone.
*Many are going to insist that a custom ROM is your best bet. Since you don't seem to be very familiar with these concepts I really think a stock ROM from your carrier is the best place to start in order to get your phone working again.

What model of the TP2 is it, where did you buy it, and what carrier are you using it on?
EDIT: I'm guessing I already know the answer to the 2nd question

It sounds like you bought a used phone that someone had put a custom rom on. Ive heard people discuss in the NRG Rom thread that some of the roms previous to April 1st would expire on the first of may. This sounds all too similar.
My advice... flash a new rom. Especially if you DID but the phone used. That's like what is going on. Do some reading in the Rom sub forum and you'll see what I'm talking. find the NRG Rom thread and search "expiration" or something.
Hope this helps some!

Hi, It expired on the 1st may so i guess that might be what the problem is. How can i instal i new rom? and where can i get this information. Do you have any links?
Thanks

All,
Due to good success in the Blue Angel section, I have decided to open a Questions and Answers thread on this section of the forum as well.

GOOD IDEA!
Hi there Gents any input
Barogi awesome so far for v2; media player not staying in full screen mode though, and manila home weather under clock wont update when you push update now also getting error message for manila home on reboot
Great idea for a faq page!
I have been using a NFSfan rom on my bell vogue for a while, and it crapped out today for some reason. Rather than put another WM build on it, I wanted to change to Android.
I have looked through many pages in here, but I can't find a simple tutorial on switch from a custom WM build to a Android build. I prefer to use the NAND method so that I don't ever have to see WM again...
Can someone create or point me towards a step-by-step guide for installing Android? Keep in mind that I have absolutely no Android experience, and that my custom ROM is completely messed up, so would it make for sense to flash the a manf build and upgrade from there?
Thanks

As far as WMP, Barogi will have to look into it since it is his rom.

I have a question:
I recently flashed the Bell rom with the latest radio (I couldn't get the radio only nbh to apply properly), and then subsequently flashed with the latest NagROM rom (which is awesome btw).
Now of course, at startup i have the nice HTC screen with the rom version etc, followed by an AWFUL blue BELL screen (and then the nice orange wm6.5 screen).
Is it possible to change the blue BELL screen? And if so how?

There was a cab to change that somewhere around here in this section of the forum. Alternatively, you can flash NFSFan's rom (which will get rid of it), or you can try mine as well and then reflash Nag's rom.

Question from mac+htc
mac+htc said:
Hey everyone,
So I was running NSFANS 6.5 ROM on my device (Amazing ROM btw) But I needed to revert back to the stock rom. I used the VZW updater to go back to the stock rom and I changed the esn on line. When I dialed the *228 and choose option 1 I got a failed message. So I called customer support and he walked me through a manual programing. Well that got voice working but when I went to use the data it wouldn't work. I made sure all the network settings were right, and I still couldn't connect. Well then I hard reset the device and now I am back to square 1. No voice no data. Is this something from NSFANS rom that is messing the phone up? I don't want to call again because their tech support takes forever and I am afraid they are just going to tell me to take the phone into the store. Thanks in advance!

Why did you change the E$N? Where you using the device in a different carrier?
Back to your problem. Your EPST settings should survive a hard reset as those are parameters that are not stored in Windows (afaik). It really makes not difference which rom you are using (at least for Voice and SMS).
Lets focus on your main phone's capabilities first. If your EPST settings truly got lost, you will need to get them from Verizon again. The main ones are the MSD and MIN. Make sure that you write them down this time as you will need them again if they go bye bye.
As for your internet, you will probably need to set the correct username in the phone's programming as well (also info that you will need from Verizon, but it should be something like [email protected] or something like that)
Do that and let me know if this works. They will have to program this for you this time, but once you have the values that I mentioned before, you will be able to do it yourself.

Try to get Barogi's latest "lite" rom. Also, you can't go wrong with vin's 28014 or NFSFan's rom. I would recommend mine, but I think they might be a little heavy for what you want. Good luck.
i checked out NSFSfan. It was nice, but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much for what I want. Ill check out the other you suggested before i just flash back to stock rom

Try to avoid stock if you can... it has a bad tendency of being too heavy on the extra apps.
I checked out just SS's of both. Both look awesome, but theres something about the simple look ( or im just used to it since my 8125 ) of the stock look. I would like to have the look but the added memory of a cooked rom.
With NSFSfans, could you remove the today screen plug ins to get back to a more stock look?
Im runnin 2.1 android eclair at the moment, and im barley pulling a full day battery with no data/bluetooth. With the old winmo, I was getting 2.5 days-3days. Thats another main concern for me.

That's the specifications page for the unbranded (european) version. There are several GSM-only models, mostly for use in the US.
Energy ROMs are my favorites. They look really nice with good features thrown in. Unfortunately, I'm sticking with 6.1 since it's the fastest, most stable, with the most available memory. Need to do a lot of multitasking so the bling bling just wasn't working for me.

So, if I'll decide to install a new unbranded rom, which one I should choose? The CDMA or GSM version? My Rhodium is European version so I suppose the GSM version: that's correct?

This is VERY interesting. Now there is a branded WM6.1 (tim) version on my HTC. But I could consider to leave this rom. Have you done some trustworthy tests for a long time?
Anyway if I decide to update with a new rom, I should use HardSPL. I downloaded this program but my avira antivirus flash up a warning message: can I really trust in HardSPL? Or is there any trojan that I'll could inject inside my Rhodium?
Lets put it this way, if you don't have Hard SPL and you aren't CID unlocked then you will very quickly have a beautiful new shiny Rhodium paper weight.
Hard SPL allows non-carrier specific roms to be loaded... Without it you won't get far...
Had the same problem with my antivirus, you will need to disable it while running Hard SPL, and you will still need to be connected to the net.
As for the Roms, YOU need to read about them then decide whats right for you. Everyone you talk to will recommend a different rom but your circumstances will play a big part in the rom you choose... It doesn't help that every other day a new rom comes out.
Cheers...

Don't get me wrong. 6.5 ROMs work really well, I just had some issues with a particular software that I needed to use in most cases. But 6.1 does have more memory.

[Q] install androidOS after HSPL cooked rom?

I flashed HardSPL on my tilt 2 last year with the Energy Rom using the GTX theme. Ever since I've been noticing that android is so much easier to use and I have been reading on the android Froyo development.
What I need to know is if I have to reflash Stock Rom with SSPL to be able to Flash the Android OS to it.
I've read all the FAQs and I have not seen this question on it and am wondering if anyone can answer it for me.
I don't know if I missed it or if I was looking for the answer at the wrong place.
So can someone please give me a link to a guide on how to do it properly because I don't want to brick my phone on the process. Also tips and precautions if you got any. Thank you!
Android can't be flashed to the phone a la WinMo yet.
Devs are working on it. Works great on my CDMA RHOD, but GSM is still a mystery...
To answer your question, you would need an unlocked bootloader (hSPL) to flash any unsigned image.
Android in its current form for our devices will run on stock SPL or hSPL, it doesn't care... everything runs off the SD card.
more questions
What is an Unasigned Image and what does it do or what is it for? Thank you for your answers.
Also how fast does Froyo run on the SD card. Is it slow? Is there a program to make android to auto start instead of it having to transtion from WM to android?

Unsigned image = anything that's not a stock ROM.
FroYo runs about as well as you can expect on our hardware... which I might mention predates Android entirely... Proc+RAM dates to 2007 on the TP2. Thanks HTC...
For making Android auto-start, search is your friend. Gen.Y is your answer.

Have you guys thought about video instructions or image instructions for the forum?
I also had a question concerning your device. When you flashed the Cooked Rom on your device ( i know,not the android, its not cooked ) did it change the buttons on your keyboard? Mine did and Ive been looking like crazy for a program that allows me to set the keys to what ever character I want. I did come across it a year ago, but nowadays that post is long gone.

Video/image instructions...? A few have made videos, but stuff changes so frequently it would get outdated very quickly. A PITA to maintain... It's really not that difficult, is it?
I assume you're talking WinMo. I haven't used it in over a year - but there was some weird issue that effected only Sprint devices, and there was some cab that I installed that fixed the issue. Sorry, I'm not much help for WinMo. Ask cajunflavoredbob, I just tell people not to use it .

It runs 2.2 (as mentioned on the web), I don't have any idea if it can be upgraded, as you may know 2.2 isn't the latest version.
For GPS, you can check its specs if it has GPS or not, if yes then you can install the apps from the market otherwise perhaps connect an external GPS, although I am not sure weather an external will work or not.

Info about new HTC 10 Please

Hello guys im a big fan of HTC using them from the last 15 years.
I moved yesterday from my belowed M8 to HTC 10 because i get a"Brand New"" Mint condition never used HTC 10 for exactly 200 USD and i saw its a super Offer for this Carbon Black device no single scratch still sealed
I cheked the phone and is writen to beb USA WWE Version Factorory Uncloked etc.
All work perfectly fine i chek it via HTC Diag and few more alternatives the only one thing bother me when im using a program to identify the device in Main bord is writen "QC Reference Phone" What this mean its that a normal?
The phone is 32GB Black Carbon USA unclocked WWE version i update it via the OTA to android 7 exactly the latest Security Patch is from September 2017 and the build of the android, 2.51.617.21 the official one since the phone was never Rooted or Unlocked Bootloader or S-Offed i have to do this this weekend)
so if you can give me more info about this will be perfect
Thank you in advance.
My other question is regarding the Unclocking things, since 10 is new device for me i will unlock the bootloader with HTC devs 1st then will install costum recovery and root it do i have to S-OFF it just to use a Custum ROM? like Viper and some mods all i want is to be able to flash Viper ROM plus Ainur Aidio Mod Sauron plus Infinity Sound mod by Zero thats it..
I know if i S-OFF it will be able to flash diferent RADIOS firmwares etc but in case im with the latest official Nougat firmware why i will need to do that? or do i really need it if i want to be able to flash only the above things i need.
Of course later with the change and OREO firmware update i will S off it anyway but do i need to do it right now what exactly i will be not able to do if im S-ON only the RADIO firmware?
THANK YOU much appriciete

Basicially S-OFF is needed if You want to change MID and/or CID to flash any RUU You want or, as You said, to be able to flash different firmware (older for example).
In matter of flashing custom roms, You don't need S-OFF to do this. If You have latest official Nougat firmware You can flash Viper ROM plus extras You have mentioned
Remeber one thing, before flashing first custom rom it's always nice and handy to perform backup in TWRP.

Remeber one thing, before flashing first custom rom it's always nice and handy to perform backup in TWRP.

I think the best way would be to contact HTC Support directly and give them all the details about phone
For all the people who wonder there is nothing WRONG with that and is not only ME also the thing about test unit or some kind of protoype is not true as well finally i have a chance to talk directly with HTC Tech support for many things including this QC Reference phone readin of the MotherBoard.
Also they did a nice lookup chek for me and told me the device i got is Perfect USA Factory Unlocked Aka Developers Device in perfect condition. And also that the dive is bought directly from them from the Official HTC site because they had it in the databes there when who and how did he get it.
Lets make it short here is the reason WHY this heppans and not only to me they are already familiar with that wrong reading.

Virginia P.: Great, Tsalta. Based on your IMEI number, I was able to check in my system that you have an original HTC Device manufactured in the US and bought through our website.
The message you are having is not an issue, your phone is in perfect state. The database of some applications does not have all the sub-versions of the processor references. The mainboard does not handle like in the computer that has apart ram processor and video. They handle something called SoC (System on a Chip), therefore the processor handles the whole system. But as there are so many versions depending on number of cores, type of video, amount of ram, etc. the application may not recognize the type of processor.
But, I promise you, there's nothing wrong with your phone.

Thats the answer its something related with the revision version Some programs read it on some devices some cant handle it BUT all the device are THE SAME.
