making sense of ROM numbers

---

By a convoluted route I thought I had bricked my Mozart, but then recovered it by flashing Ansar's RUU_Mozart_Orange_UK_1.30.401.01_Radio_5.54.09.21_ 22.33b.50U_NoDo_by_ansar ROM.
But I now have ended up with an odd pre-NoDo ROM which I surprised is working at all, alongside a 5.1 SPL and I think latest Radio. Here below is my phone information:

Name: HTC PD6700
OS: 7.0.7003.0
Firmware revision: 2250.09.10916.001
Radio software: 5.71.09.02a_22.51.50.21U
Radio hardware: A.102.0.D4
Bootloader: 5.1.2250.4(131830)
Chip SOC: 2.2.5.0


using Ansar's excellent guide to ROM numbers:

In order to identify your phone ROM version see in the settings>about>more information:

Firmware revision number: 2250.09.16101.707

Your phone ROM version will be: 1.61.707.01

The characteristic value (CV) is: 707

You Operator name and CID i.e.: hTC_Asia with CID HTC_044. HTC_622 can be found with this CV from following classification:

1. 707: hTC_Asia operator, with CIDs HTC__044, HTC_622, HTC__021, HTC__038

2. 728: hTC_Asia_SEA operator, with CID HTC__023

3. 401: HTC_Europe operator, with CIDs HTC__001, HTC__Y13, HTC__405, HTC__016, HTC__032

4. 206: O2_UK operator, with CID O2__001

5. 073: Orange_FR operator, with CID ORANG202

6. 061: Orange_UK operator, with CID ORANG001

7. 841: Telstra operator, with CID TELST001

8. 112: TMO_AT operator, with CID T-MOB102

9. 113: TMO_CZ operator, with CID T-MOB004

a. 111: TMO_DE operator, with CID T-MOB101

My ROM is Firmware revision number: 2250.09.10916.001
My phone ROM version will be: 1.09.001.16.
And CV Characterisctic Value is 001 which corresponds to HTC_Europe, but the figure should display as 401.

QUESTIONS: Am I correct with how I interpret the ROM number?
What ROMs can I flash from here, ideally to progress to a standard MANGO Europe ROM?

Huh? What else is WP7 build 7003? BTW, how could you get Bootloader 5.xx?

Sorry, I can't answer your question. Otherwise, I guess you may try to flash your phone with HTC_Europe custom roms with your branded operator. (I didn't even understand what I was saying..). your version is kind of weird. Or, have you ever flashed it with something else?

Thanks for your reply on this. I'd forgotten about this.
I ended up using GoldCard to flash complete new ROM to the Mozart and this worked perfectly.

Hmm, I wonder, what is GoldCard? what is it used for? O.o

I think that is a question for elsewhere. This thread can be considered closed now thank you.
