New to this...

Hi there... I bought my T-Mobile Touch Plus from UK a year ago, and have been trying to follow this forum ever since... but have had trouble understanding most of it, due to my limited understand of hardspls, roms, and all that stuff.

The phone has been very disappointing, as I had a much faster and reliable experience on my Magician.

Been to lazy to do anything about it until now...

My phone is still 100% stock standard from T-Mobile UK and its model is a NIKI200.

Can someone tell me what I need to do to make it a half decent phone?

I have also tried to get the official 6.1 OS update... but have been unable to due to my serial number not being right or something. Will it matter if I try upgrading it anyway with those files?

Thanks

1. download the spl files (flash-uspl-niki.zip (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=63944&d=1199227284)& sspl-1.16-nike (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=63902&d=1199210757)).
2. REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !!
3. connect usb cable
4. copy sspl-1.16-nike.exe to your device and run it (usb cable must be connected!)
5. after a few seconds "USB" appears on the display
6. unplug and replug the usb cable
8. you can now flash the USPL by running ROMUpdateUtility.exe from flash-uspl-niki
9. after installing the uspl the phone will reboot
10. after that you can flash the new HTC rom update.
Download the HTC rom update from the following location:

THANKS!! I will give it a go!

Seems a lot better now thanks!

Does that take the network unlock away as well?

Can I now try flashing most of the NIKI100 or NIKI200 roms onto it?
