In short: No, don´t do this.

There are quite a few custom ROMs which work with both HD2 versions.

However, factory ROMs, you should only install the correct version on your Leo1024, because most Leo512 ROMs come with Radio ROMs which may brick your device.

Even with custom ROMs, be careful and always read the description and instructions of the chef!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mulamustafa:
Thank you for answer.

I asked this becouse I'm planing to buy bricked phone in this way and I'm interesting is it possible to install again correct ROM version?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tictac0566:
If it´s really bricked, it will be hard or even impossible to fix.

Even professional service centers cannot fix some bricked devices at low cost, as sometimes the mainboard needs replacement. Even worse, ever since Android NAND builds are in use, there is a dramatic increase in total damages.

A German service specialist actually did exactly what you ask - and it worked to some extent, but even he said it was not 100% proper.

Personally, I wouldn´t buy such a device.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamiegoldsworthy:
I have seen some threads about un-rooting for warranty claims, but want a definite answer before doing anything.

My DHD has ENG S-OFF, Radio S-OFF and Clockwork Mod Recovery, and basically I want someone to be able to tell me/ point me in the direction of files and instructions for returning my handset to 1.32 stock with no superuser, custom recovery or s-off's of any kind.

Also, if the engineers where to update my phone like i know their prone to doing, is it still possible to downgrade back to 1.32 and root again to get my beloved MIUI back?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmohammed43:
you can download a stock rom from the links on this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=846248

And It'll take the HTC back to it's factory defaults, as if it was new. It'll probably be best to use the RUU (that's what it's called) for Orange UK (if your phone's locked to that, assuming you updated your operator)

HOWEVER! Running an OTA update to gingerbread from the new system'll leave you with a probably unrootable Desire HD (to check if it's still got the radio S-off at least, go into fastboot and check that the CID is just 1's)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamiegoldsworthy:
So I would install this like a ROM through Clockwork Mod?

So would this RUU remove all of my custom recovery, and S-OFF's? It's just I wanna make sure it's all gone just in case....

So there is no way that these can be downgraded like 1.72 can be?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmohammed43:
Narh, you don't flash it through clockwork mod, it's run from your computer. You'll need the HTC Sync application installed on your computer, and a sense rom to connect the phone via htc sync.

When you run the RUU, it'll tell you what to do. I think it removes a ENG S-OFF but but a radio S-OFF'll stay on the phone (it is more or less permanent). However, I don't think the radio s-off'll show up in fastboot that obviously.

The reason you can't downgrade the firmware on RUUs is because in the process of rooting, the phone's CID changes to 111111111 (or something) so the PD98IMG file for downgrading will refuse to work with the phone because of an "Incorrect CID"
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamiegoldsworthy:
So I need to flash a sense ROM, and then how do I use the RUU? Sorry if I'm a pain!

Right so i can't get rod of radio s-off :/ and if they upgraded my phone I can't root again? damn :/
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
It's been a while since i had to use a RUU, but I believe it should work with any rom.

Hello all,

I was getting that stupid 80180048 error trying to update to the mango beta. I'm on a student developer account and have never used Chevron yet still getting this error. After many frustrating hours trying everything I could think of I finally found this advice on the apphub forums.

1) Flash your phone back to its stock form... I simply search for "flashing rom focus" here and I found my rom at

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1131022

2) Start Mango process over

This removed whatever was causing me the problems that resulted in the 80180048. It's a pain to re-install my apps and settings but my phone is now updated to Mango Beta.

Hope this helps if you were stuck as I was.

for those who did "Walsh" their phones to get NoDo early...

ATT Focus in the US - not dev unlocked and no other modifications

I had originally used the "Walsh" updater to get NoDo early.

I used the "unwalsh" tool when it first showed up (well before the Mango beta was available), but I learned yesterday I used it incorrectly. Instead of selecting all keyboard languages present on the device, I selected only the active language.

I had the same "80180048" error when the 4.8 Zune software was trying to install the first of the two Mango-related updates.

I re-used the "unwalsh" tool, this time selecting all of the keyboard languages present, and the Mango Beta update installed successfully.

I did NOT need to flash back to stock 7004, thankfully.

unwalsh tool:

http: slash slash blog DOT walshie DOT me/walshed-phone-support-tool-official-fix-to-get-you-back-on-track -- see my comment at the end of this post about an updated version of this tool floating around, though.

The info about re-using the tool came from an apphub thread:

http: slash slash forums DOT create DOT msdn DOT com/forums/t/85769 DOT aspx

Make sure you read that thread before updating, look for posts from Rafael, specifically. He also links to an updated (June 29, I think) version of the "unwalsh" tool.

[Windows Phone 7 General] Demaar:
My sister had a brand new Omnia 7 that I went through the updating process a few weeks, and I actually got this error when trying to install Mango for her. Tried everything I could (such as using the WP Support tools, Samsung Omnia 7 tools), but nothing could get Mango to install.

Decided to take the plunge and try flashing and now the phone is better than ever and happily running Mango. I think it's possible that there was an issue with the firmware or bootloader (it was an earlier version number than mine, and I was using XXJID).

After seeing how easy it was I decided to take the plunge and flash mine to the latest firmware available too, and it actually fixed up a few problems/bugs I've always had with the phone. So yeah, if you don't care about losing your texts/settings/game saves and you're feeling brave, I'd definitely recommend flashing your phone to the latest available rom :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] jfreiman:
Neither I nor my buddy could update our Samsung Focus' to Mango without getting this error.

My buddy even spent an hour last night trying to get his phone to upgrade and always came up with the above error message.

Now today, BOTH of our phones were able to update to Mango via Zune without doing/changing anything.

It seems like MS was true to their word when they said they would have a fix for this issue.

I hope that everyone can now upgrade hassel free because Mango is beautiful.

Well my luck finally ran out with my Streak as my 7month old Spaniel puppy got his paws on it :(

Thing is the only bits he damaged were the outside edges, everything on the phone works but the glass about the buttons and camera is cracked and I can't seem to find any mention of this being mentioned as a replaceable part!

Any advice?

As far as I know those parts are hard to find.

There is a shop in the UK that mey have the parts. You are going to have issue with replacing the side with the buttons as it is attached with a ribbon.

[Verizon Droid Charge] cody.ivey:
First, thank you for taking time out of your day to read my post and assist.I am a fairly new user to the android, and the charge is my first smart phone so if I'm missing something, please stay with me.

A few days ago I decided to root my phone, and followed a step by step video and successfully rooted with Altered Beast. Not knowing too much about rooted devices I viewed several forums and eventually downloaded ROM Manager as it was highly recommended. After playing around with the tool, I downloaded gummy and installed that after making a back up of Altered Beast. In gummy I was unable to connect with my USB to the computer, so I decided to restore to Altered Beast, I initiated this through RM. The device turned off and then turned on and is now stuck in the boot loader screen. The following message appears:

-- bootmode=7 from cmdline...

-- Movi_check Start..!!

checksum confirmation need_checksum[0]

Not need checksum confirmation

--Movi_check already executed!!...

--movi_checking done!...

# MANUAL MODE #

None of the options in the boot loader work, so I have tried the following:

1. Downloaded the "update.zip" on a friend's SD card and attempted to boot from that.

2. Downloaded the entire ED1 on an SD card and attempted to load from that.

3. Used ODIN to flash Altered Beast back on, which reported as successful, but I am still unable to get past the Boot loader.

4. Attempted to Flash the PIT, and then ED1 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1111486

5. Attempted to use Samsung PST through the following walkthrough http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...harge-full-factory-tar-flashing-software.html

6. Cried.

7. Tried various walkthroughs on XDA to get out of the BL, but nothing is working.

Currently, when I attempt to use the following options, the following responses are given.

1. Reboot System now: System successfully resets; however it loops.

2.apply sdcard: update.zip: Loads 1/4th of the way and then errors by saying E: failed to verify whole-file signature E: signature verification failed Instillation aborted.

3.wipe data/factory reset: Wipe data complete, but unfortunately it does not reboot out of the boot loader.

4. Wipe cache partition: Same as above

5. Format Internal SD card: Same as above

I'm at a loss, but I've heard that it's not a total loss unless you can't turn it on (which happened last night, I just reloaded the PIT and it worked?). If anyone has an idea, please post it, and understand that although I'm okay at this stuff, there is a great amount of information that I have no clue about, so I need details if possible.

Thanks again for your time, I greatly appreciate it, and I apologize if I have overlooked any previous post, I have been at this for about 8 hours and can't figure it out.

your mistake was Rom Manager...Charge doesn't work with restore or backup with Rom Manager.....

I would put ED2 stock load on.....you load that with PST..it worked for me...then after you load that.....it will update over the air to ED4....then I would load Altered Beast with kernel and all so you can be rooted...then you can always install GUMMY

Hey everyone,

Pray tell: what is the easiest way to root my TF and keep existing firmware? I'd like to have the option of flashing new roms and kernels down the road. I keep hearing that rooting takes less than 10 minutes, but the guides I'm seeing require ADB (which requires JDK) and some asus crapware that I just don't want to fill my computer with.

I remember how easy rooting was on the Gtab (upload a new recovery.zip to an SD card and reboot) and I'm hoping that it can be as easy here.

Thanks!

Is this root it still valid for Tf with all the latest updates (3.1, 8445 build)?

http://briefmobile.com/root-asus-transformer-on-android-3-1

Please help, I am new to Tf and Android. I can do hackintosh and iOS jailbreak. But this rooting thing is all new to me. It's all very confusing. Why are there so many different out there, e.g., in the developer section of this forum? What is Prime?

Finally, what is the downside of rooting? Some seemed to suggest you may not getting a dock firmware update, or app missing from market? What happens with the next android update if rooted?

Sorry for all the questions, I couldn't find a nice intro guide on Tf rooting for dummies.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilmonkey1987:
Think of rooting as jailbreaking on steroids. "Root" in linux parlance means superuser: a system account with permission to do anything. Jailbreaking gives you the same thing, but jailbreaking does not give you the ability to install new firmware, which rooting does.

Prime is a ROM: a custom firmware. Unlike in the iOS world, android "allows" you to load a whole new operating system that you create yourself or someone else created (referred to as a ROM) onto your device. The ROMs are still Android operating systems, but there are a few advantages:

1) Unlike iOS updates, android updates don't get pushed out to everyone at the same time. Even if an update is available for your device, there is no guarantee that your phone carrier will push it out to you or won't sit on their hands for six months before doing it, effectively crippling your phone. A custom ROM allows you to bypass your carrier and load the updates yourself. This is not as big an issue on the transformer because there's no carrier to speak of. Still, if Asus takes its sweet time releasing the next version of android, you can bet it will be up here as a ROM first;

2) Most ROMs take out crapware that you don't want on your device; and

3) Many ROMs include performance optimizations or overclocks that wouldn't otherwise be possible.

I'm actually not sure if rooting by itself disables Asus updates...I don't think it does (but someone can correct me if I'm wrong). However, if you load Prime or another custom ROM, you will not have updates because there is nothing to update: you are not running Asus firmware anymore. You will have to wait for the developers of Prime to release new versions and flash them manually. Another downside of rooting is that you can lose you warranty. But if you root and need to make use of warranty, you can just unroot (see threads on that).

Hope that helps.
