NOOB - HTC Touch 2 - Firmware
 
Hi,

I have recently bought the "HTC Touch 2" on contract from T-Mobile. I wanted to put my o2 sim card in the phone so had to pay for the unlock code which has worked fine.

The problem I have is that the phone menu's / internet pages are all T-Mobile related. I would much rather have the standard HTC Touch 2 menu and unbranded internet provider. It also prevents me from changing a couple of settings.

I understand that I can fix all of this by upgrading the firmware (maybe back to HTC standard). Can any one please supply me with some information on what needs to be done here. I have seen the term ROM used before (and custom ones) but not sure if this is the same thing.

Many thanks,
Dave

1st off, Im assuming you mean Touch Pro 2? As the Touch 2 isn't released for T-mo?

Thanks for your quick responses.

It is definetely the HTC Touch 2. http://www.htc.com/www/product/touch2/overview.html

I want a universal firmware version. Nothing relating to any network.

Does it matter what ROM I use? I want a decent one that is very stable and has no issues.

How do I update the firmware?

Many thanks,
Dave
