I tried to downgrade my DHD to 1.3xxxx several times and the end result was always the same "CID incorrect". Can someone help me please I really need to root my DHD.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LINKSLOVESANDROID:

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-make-gold-card-for-htc-desire-hd/

just make sure u follow the steps properly
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawks556:
Reading the whole guide might help

So as LINKSLOVESANDROID, the problem is with your goldcard, if you ever made one...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sodocacai:
After receiving commands via the cid adb you have to reverse with a program (qmart), after you go to reversekills and you send the iso via email .. gold card uses tools, tell you put the disk in units and debugging issues that gold See your card mmc tool loads the image of your gold card you received by mail and then click patch mmc GoldCard created ... ..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
and in English please, and I know what your trying to convey.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flupo2000:
I used this guide and I even bought a new card for it only and I have the same problem. Before trying this guide it used to say CID Incorrect then after making the Goldcard using your guide, it doesn't give me any response and just goes back to the original boot loading screen after saying image not found for like 3-4 times. Please help with any simple way
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flupo2000:
Thanks for trying to help but this is too much technical that I don't understand it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zulmacher:
After creating the Goldcard with ur new card, did u put the PD98IMG.zip file in the card itself?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flupo2000:
Finally it worked after trying soooo many guides and videos I used this simple direct one http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/ and it worked. But to be frank with you it looks like the issue is the SD card itself, not all SD card accepts the Goldcard process. My last attempt after trying 4 different cards I pulled my camera card and I said this is the last trial and it worked although it is SanDisk same I tried with 3 before and I even tried Toshiba brand. Any ways thank you all you are the best to help now I moving to next step S-Off
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonflame2045:
I have been reading through the threads and was wondering if the ROM's listed in the following thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=842000&page=8# will not only take out Clockwork Mod but also allow for the new update to 4349? Does anyone know?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimcpl:
My understanding from all the threads, and mostly roebeet's comments is that you have to be on stock 3588 and with NO CWM, to safely upgrade to the new 4349 firmware (note I haven't taken the OTA yet, so take that with a grain of salt).

As far as the list of older stock versions, I think (not sure) that 3588 is the only one of those that overwrites CWM and replaces it with stock recovery.

There was another one, before 3588, that's not on that 1st post (see my signature - it was the one I had before 3588) that also replaced CWM with stock recovery.

As the title states looking for opinions on what non-CM Gingerbread ROMs are working best for other users. This also excludes ROMs based on CM. As much as Im not a Sense fan, Im at the point where I dont care if it is Sense or not. Im thinking of switching from CM7 mainly cause the GPS issue has finally gotten to me (ive tried all fixes and have GPS working but its so crappy compared to stock). Enough of that, time to move on. Welcome to opinions on some Gingerbread roms.
[G2 and Desire Z General] MishXT:
well i find the meXdroidMod meXperia remeX really awesome, though its cm nightly based, i think a good non cm would be the ginger-sense by gingervillian
[G2 and Desire Z General] dustrho:
I never was a Sense fan until I came across Virtuous. Best ROM for the G2 in my opinion. I'm always trying other ROMs just to keep up with what's out there, but I keep coming back to Virtuous as my daily driver. Everything just works with it, including GPS.
[G2 and Desire Z General] BoscoTM:
MIUI hands down. I love how fast and smooth it is, especially with pershoot's latest kernel.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
miui for sure...

was gonna suggest ultimate droid. but its cm7 based. sooo.. miui. best rom IMHO
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Yea MIUI! My favorite. I think you will like UD( UltimateDroid) Its based on CM but I think its a little bit better but that's just me of course.
[G2 and Desire Z General] slider6000:
ultimate droid 3.3 is the best i've come across thus far.
[G2 and Desire Z General] MajorTom_:
I wouldn't recommend MIUI, it's boring.

mexdroid and pyromod are great but are CM based yet I don't experience GPS issues.

non CM7 based I recommend this.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=983991

it's sense but one of the best sense roms out there.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xsteven77x:
Ultimatedroid definitely kicks ass. I really want to try the miui, but there are like five different ones in rom manager and two or three on the forum, no idea which is most up to date, supported the most, or used by the most people. Is miui supposed to be iphone clone?

Edit: UD is based off cyanogen also but actually feels like a rom all its own and not a CM ripoff.
[G2 and Desire Z General] eioous:
+1, its pretty awesome
[G2 and Desire Z General] MajorTom_:
yup that's what it's supposed to be with a little bit of android.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Aha... we were just saying. It matters how you like a rom.I like Miui, haven't been in any other rom for a long time.
[G2 and Desire Z General] niai_mack:
is there any rom that has the tweeks from Ultimatedroid but gingersense based?
[G2 and Desire Z General] DROITURK182:
Use gingervillian 1.5 its stock with cm7 settings which you can use optional if you want.

Sent from my 7 inch HTC Space Banana running Gingervillain 1.5
[G2 and Desire Z General] astriaos:
Some issues with ultimatedroid(for g2) are thus follows:

~Gps is still borked.

~After you select one alternate theme no other one will install, same goes for boot animation though in the case of boot animations once you have selected an alternate you cannot change it.

~Font changes do not work.

~Applications like to uninstall themselves.

UD "seems" snappy but it is entirely due to sped up render effects. I pulled just as fast & faster quadrant scores running CM6.1.1 with pershoots latest kernel.

Speed is in the eye of the beholder people. So far virtually ever rom I've tried that is based on CM7 code has some sort of "gotta pray to machine gods" type element to get GPS going. Virtuous is laggy even with overclocking past 1ghz and if you don't dig SenseUI you're up a creek. The only major rom I have yet to try is MIUI but I really don't dig iphone style integration so I guess I'm just going to be stuck on CM6.1.1 till the official Gingerbread release for the g2 comes out.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xsteven77x:
I think the gps varies partly on hardware also, because I have never had any of the aforementioned problems on UD (given I never tried to change the font), and gps worked fine. As in accuracy three meters and under and no drifting. Gps works for me on all these roms that people say it is broke on when the OP states the technically it is working correctly. Coming from a vibrant before I have seen how wildly gps hardware quality can vary with a given model, I do believe people when they say it doesn't work for them but there are also people who never expierience these problems.
[G2 and Desire Z General] niai_mack:
you can use miui with a different launcher then its not really all that iphone'ish, i have used miui as my rom for most the time i have had my phone and it runs grate i used it as i love the luncher others seem to swear by it with luncher pro or adw though.

atm i am trying to get over my app drawer hate so i can try some more roms out there, sense seems to work best with the phone seen as it has been made for the keybaord or so i have have found anyway.

is there any luncher/mod out there that will remove an app form the drawer when its on a homepage?
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
Launcher pro and adw have to option to hide apps in the app drawer... I'm like 98% positive... I think adw is called categories..
[G2 and Desire Z General] enp82003:
I was using GingerVillain for months because my GPS wouldn't run on my old radio with CM7. Once i upgraded my radio I used CM7. GingerVillain was great considering it was would before CM7 but did have some issues with randomly restarting.
[G2 and Desire Z General] enserio:
I don't believe the xboarders rom is CM based. It's just straight up, no bs, stock gingerbread.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dustrho:
Sorry to burst your bubble, but you're wrong. All Gingerbread ROMs for the G2/Desire Z are built off CM7 code. There currently is no pure stock GB for our phones at the moment.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lainvalenajr:
Yes that is true. But its better to have something closes to stock right. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] enserio:
No biggie. I guess were just talking sense roms, if were answering the op. I've actually never used xb's rom, just got that idea from idk where.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xsteven77x:
Come on source code come on!
[G2 and Desire Z General] BootloopedMillennials:
Just an update. I tried Virtuous and like it but it was too laggy for me. Not a fan of MIUI roms, so I didnt try those. For the amount of ROMs we have, it is still limited.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dustrho:
You're not kidding. :(
[G2 and Desire Z General] solracarevir:
Im using MIUI after being a CM user for a lot of time (had it on my G1, then on my MyTouch Slide, then on my G2) and all I can say are good things about MIUI (Although I miss the Wifi calling feature)

If you don't like the iPhone'ish look you can try installing another launcher, like launcher pro or Zeam
[G2 and Desire Z General] slider6000:
Agree with xsteven. Couple hiccups but all fixed with dalvik wipe and reflash
[G2 and Desire Z General] twelvebit:
I have been happy with Gingervillain 1.5 but it seems to have been abandoned and I'm ready to move on. Any suggestion where to go from here? I don't want to lose GPS, which has been working fine with GV1.5
[G2 and Desire Z General] shady503403:
soo much hate on miui.. if you want something "different" then miui is the way to go. the only thing "iphone" about it is the launcher.. which im sure 99% of you use another launcher anyways.. miui ftmfw in my book by far.. other roms are just boring imho.. im big into themeing thou.. so ofcourse miui is my goto.. plus much more stable and i have zero bugs..
[G2 and Desire Z General] astriaos:
I flashed Virtuous three different times and finally got it going smoothly. Here are some protips for this rom:

~Full flash and wipe are needed to get past bootscreen. Good practice is doing this every time anyway.

~The first 30-45 minutes will be laggy as you're still getting all your old apps down off the market. Put yourself on the charger and ramp up your cpu to expedite this process.

~For the first two days this rom likes having at least 900mhz at all times other than screen off. After this time you can set up multiple (very easily and to great effect) Setcpu profiles to downclock you to a minimum of 475mhz depending on how your battery life is. Several profiles with increasing priority the lower you go extend out the life of this rom.

Battery life is pretty average but not exceptional. I pulled usually 24 hours with near constant texting, no data and intermittent wifi usage. For the most part I tend to have 3-4 bars on Tmobile where I am at so the radio wasn't going ape**** trying to find a signal. I crank down the cpu when the screen is off.

I enjoyed the themes available but found the amount of extraneous HTC based apps to be mildly irritating. Perusing their selection of backgrounds & additional themes, I was not terribly impressed. I disliked the limited toggle options on the main dock. Wif toggling was relatively slow & the main dock that you could slave to do this task wasn't really very responsive.

Virtuous is a good rom, but it does take some time for it to settle in properly and you to adjust to the SenseUI. The camera overlay, addition of alternate alarm sounds, and generally highly accurate battery prediction all lend me to believe that it is a good daily driver for those it works for.

I''ve tried stock, cm6.1.1, cm7.0.0, virtuous, and xboarders gingerbread 1.9.3. They all have their merits. Most all of them are fast, fairly easy to customize, and aren't a total pile. Out of all of them CM6.1.1 with preshoots kernel, and xboarder 1.9.x have been my favorite. They're clean, reliable, and give you very regular battery life.
[G2 and Desire Z General] I AM VS4:
meXdroidmod meXperia remeX is extremely tacky and unstable as hell. MIUI has the best UI and feel so far. The developers are more expirienced and the customization features will leave you jaw dropped try it from ROM Manager and tell me what you think.
[G2 and Desire Z General] solracarevir:
I have to agree with you. MIUI Roms are great. if you are about themes, you can't go wrong with MIUI. I replaced the Stock launcher with Launcher pro...
[G2 and Desire Z General] Uniquee210:
is ultimate droid for tmobile g2?
[G2 and Desire Z General] xsteven77x:
Yes. Unfortunately it's becoming quickly outdated. Has not been updated since March. Word on the UD forums is that they have abandonded at least OUR version.
[G2 and Desire Z General] naturallyfrozen:
I'm loving the MIUI so far. I wanted to get away from the "android experience" so if that's what you want, I recommend MIUI
[Defy General] Deonix:
So, i just bought my Defy today (very excited, works ok out of the box) and i looked for the model number but i could not sort it out. ( i bought it from Europe)

Mine is BT33, MSN L596QA2875 . Will it be ok?
[Defy General] MrBelter:
Up to press models showing BT or a blue dot under the battery have been unaffected by earpiece failures so yours should be OK.
[Defy General] elvispreasley:
Unfortunnately nobody knows( But by the reason - that you have a this year made Defy - you have much more chance, that all will be OK, cause most hardware problem had devices made in 2010.
[Defy General] MrBelter:
The official Motorola response is phones with the BT or BF code or the blue dot will not be affected and handsets made from March which no longer use the codes or dot will not be affected so to say no one knows is wrong.

That isn't to say the ear piece definitely wont break, it might fail for a different reason.
[Defy General] nicksti:
Here is a better question:

Has anyone with BT or Blue Dot had an earpiece show the same fault as the previous designed one?

I considered buying a backup earpiece just in case but I put that purchase off.
[Defy General] drakeM:
unfortunately yes...here in italy some people with bt/bf defy had the same problem of previous version. Me and others defy users have a theory about this problem: because of the ip67 protection against water, the cell is ermetically closed so if you press on the backcover near the M logo during a call you can hear a distortion (try it yourself). After few time the stress caused by the pressure on the earpiece can cause its break. That's all.

ps: sorry for bad english :D
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidDualCore:
Verizon will upgrade the Xoom to 4g in May or June. If I have a wifi version that I don't intend to purchase a data plan for, is there any reason to wait for the upgrade (I prefer not to send in the device for upgrade after purchase).

Mark
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keitht:
Not sure I understand the question or which version of Xoom you have. If you have the WiFi only version without the Verizon logo, then there is no upgrade for that device. If you have the one with Verizon logo, you already have 3G which you do not need to use, and you do not have to send it in for 4G either if you do not plan to use that. You may consider resale value though and get the upgrade even if you do not plan to use it. From what I understand, the free upgrade will be available for a limited time.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhconcepts:
Need help fixing 4g. Dont know when it stopped working but I have tried other roms and no luck. I have updated the radio then the profile and then the prl, I rebooted and then did the wimax and profile and prl and deleted some wimax file like one of the post said to do. No luck at all

I then tried to unroot to see if sprint would swap it out. When I try to unroot it tells me my battery is less then 30% and the other ruus say they dont see my phone. I dont know how I rooted it but I think it was with unrevoked not sure.

4g says scanning then connecting and back to scanning thats it. I use mikrom 4.61 right now

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jstalford:
Did you check your RSA keys with the app from the Market?

Is your battery less than 30%? If it is, plug it in. If you want to unroot, just dl the s-on zip, flash that, then place the PC36IMG.zip on the root of your SD Card and go to hboot and let it update.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhconcepts:
I got it unrooted. I did the unrevoke on patch and tried like 5 zip files and one of them worked. So its stock but I don't think 4g is working yet ill know tomorrow when I goto work.

Now what is this thing from the market for? Never mind I looked it up. So if my key is lost what do I do then? Send it in?

And no I didn't have any backups :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rem3Dy:
You should have to buy a new phone for being a moron. This is why every post about rooting reminds you to make a backup. You messed up live with the consequences. Sorry that is harsh, but this is preventable and all to common. People are way to over their heads messing with their phones like this. Now you will try to get your phone replaced and because of people like yourself replacement warrenties get more strict and costs go up. Sorry for the rant it just really annoys me that people keep ruining their phones because they are clueless.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhconcepts:
Your not being harsh at all... YOUR BEING A DINK,, And what would a backup do for me because I dont know crap right.. I did find my very first backup from when I first rooted the phone and that didnt help at all. So I unrooted it and its still not working. And thanks to the rest of you guys for the help and info, Im thinking the wimax key is gone but I didnt want to root the phone to find out. Sprint is doing a swap right now so Im all good..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] novanosis85:
Good for you, hope you learned your lesson.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhconcepts:
Me? No I didn't. Everyone says to do a backup but when I found my backup it didn't help. Even the stock Rom didn't help. So if someone can tell me how to backup the wimax key that may help next time. But what I see is once its gone its gone, not even a backup will help. One thing I did learn is that I'm staying with mik's Rom lol.

I rooted my evo and now I see a wimax backup in the recovery. I have never seen that in the backup of the recovery before. But many things have changed so could it be something they added in down the road? I rooted the phone when it first came out. But now I see what you are talking about the backup. Maybe next time someone can fill me in on that and not be such a ass.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aksharpatel417:
i agree man chill out
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eventer289:
It's easiest to do with Amon-Ra recovery, which you can find out about installing if you do a search for Amon-Ra 2.3. When using Ra, go to backup, and just check "Wimax." It'll backup just your wimax. Now, just go into your nandroid folder on your sd and add a "-wimax_key"to the end of the file name so you can remember it, and then put that backup in multiple safe places.

Are you sure it's your phone that is having the issue? Sprint could just have an outage. I've had some janky 4g coverage lately.

If it is your phone, what recovery and version are you running? All the new recoveries backup the Wimax keys. It's not true that "once it is gone, it's gone." I imagine you ran Unrevoked to root it which installs Clockworkmod recovery, so your original nandroid backup should have the keys backedup already. In that case you'd just need to wipe and then restore the nandroid. Upon doing that, it will also restore your Wimax key. DL the Wimax key checker from the market as previously mentioned and verify your RSA (Wimax) key is present. You are good to go if so.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhconcepts:
Thanks for the info. It was the phone for sure and I must have had the very first recovery version because I never seen the wimax backup before. Now on my new phone I see the wimax and other things I can backup. So on this one I checked them all and did my backup :) So that must be why the backup I found didnt help me. I never thought about checking to see if the recovery had updates.

What the F#*K is going on with this thing?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
since the stock i9020A works fine, then the thing is most of the ROMs were cooked for the i9020T

not the i9023 or i9020A, which both share the same issues.

there seems to be some other hardware differences between those 2 vs i9020T

radio is different for sure, but partitions seems to be the next, that aside, there might be some other hidden settings that needs to be adjusted for the i9023 & i9020A
