Hi,

my mobile is a VDA V (Vodaphone) and I hate this ROM. I tried to get ROM-update from HTC homepage because I would like to have a german ROM. But Homepage told my S/N is wrong (?).
So I found the alternativ solution in VOX wiki (the shipped ROM german).

Can I use the ROMs for my VDA V, or is VDA different to normal VOX ???
I'm I little bit afraid due to the HTC homepage didn't know my S/N-number and that VDA V is not compatible.

regards Odiad

Hi Hashtowent,

I've just tried ROM from XDA ftp (ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Smartphone/Vox/ROMs/Shipped)

Started ROM-Update (exe-file), followed the instruction and update process started. But after 3% proecess stopped and with message update is not suitable for my device.

Other possibilities ? I would like to have a german ROM. I think all VOX-Forum-ROMs are not in German, isn't it?

hi to all

reading helps, because I read "Vox Update SPL (USPL) 1.16". And with 1.16 I could install new ROM. Yeah - no more Vodafon-ROM !!!

So thanks to jockyw2001.

Regards Odiad

What did you not like in the Vodafone ROM? I still use that (tweaked though) simply because it does NOT vibrate on boot. I have the phone do a reboot every night at 3am and the vibrate would wake me up then...
The languages in the ROM are also better distributed in the Vodafone ROM, the HTC has just GER and ENG or WWE (without GER).
Basic Tweaking requires:
- new JAVA (JBED Rose)
- new Radio (latest)
- some little de-branding
