I'm currently out of town on business and will be back Saturday morning. That is what's currently delaying me and the rom progress.

My apologies and Saturday I will be distributing tasks to users so to take some of the workload off myself.

Thanks again for your patience.

Are you referring to the Downloads & Resources link?

If so, I have changed the link to my profile on AFH. Should let you view my devices which will lead you to the original HTC Desire page, but I have created a temporary folder named Desire 530.

I pulled the Metro-PCS and Unlocked variant Alpha builds due to them being stuck on boot animation.

Stay tuned for updates.

I'm so happy that someone is giving some attention to this device! Following this thread and can't wait until you hit a stable build .
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AndroidSamurai:
Quick Update:

I have spoken with numerous users here at XDA over the past few days. What I've gathered is a large network of information that we will be compiling about our devices.

I apologize about the Alpha builds boot issues and hope to solve this issue very soon. While having a "Stock/Debloated" ROM is a good starting point for the Desire 530 community, I think it would be in our best interest to focus on AOSP.

If you have any questions or concerns, please Join Us On Hangouts and show your support.

Thanks and keep posted.

When i did reboot they showed 4 balls and waiting 1hour and nothing :(. Mayby i wrong install "PACK"?. I thought i broke the phone... but installed Desire 530 1.01.617.27 Boot System.7z from -> cmd -> comand "fastboot" and finally everything works :).

Sorry for my english.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AndroidSamurai:
Hi and welcome!

The 1.1 build is an alpha and does not boot. I put a specific description in AFH stating that it's for developers only. :)

Please do not flash unless posted as stable in the OP. However, I am glad that you got your device back up and running.

More builds are coming soon, we have 4 devs working on specific projects.

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to update everyone on our project status as of now. First off, Bombastic11r has been working his fingers to the bone on this new custom kernel and he's already had an alpha working on a test device. I have been working on my build environment and I'm currently syncing the AOSP source so hopefully the SlimDesire crew will have a stable release soon.

Thanks for the support all!

Good Evening,

Well, I hope that everyone had a great and safe weekend! Most of this weekend The SlimDesire Crew has been spending time with our loved ones and taking care of business as usual. We hope that this coming week will bring great things to the Desire 530 community at XDA and we're also glad to add another Rom/Kernel Developer to the crew.

Please keep at lookout for Reaver385 and the great things he builds.

As always, Thanks for the support!

Good evening everyone!

As you've noticed I've been absent lately and apologize for this. I have a new job and I'm working 16-17hrs per day which leaves me a small amount of time with my family and sleep.

Don't worry though! I am still working on the SlimDesire Project and we will be releasing something soon.

Thanks,

Don't push yourself too hard.Haste makes waste mate .
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] teknoweanie:
Are there different models of the 530? Is it the T-Mobile/metro version this is being deved for?
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
It's being made for metro/t mobile, unlocked. I think there was a third that i can't recall just yet.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
Watching closely but I am confused about unlocking a 530.

Kanga root doesn't work and TWRP doesn't list a 530 on their supported list.

How are you guys rooting this phone.

I have a Metro PCS on ATT with Consumer Cellular.

You know I'm wanting a way to get it un-bloated.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
You first have to s-off the device this can be done with either cmd prompt with required files installed on your PC or with sunshine which requires a payment, flash twrp as your recovery, then flash supersu zip file.

Unfortunately, I do not have links to any of these. But easily found with a Google search, or a search on this site.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
Thanks for the reply.

I may have the files you mentioned, just not the command lines.

I have unlocked the bootloader but still with S-on

So the new TWRP 3.1.~~ will work even if it's not supported?

I get spooked when I see "Bata" and "experimental" .
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
The beta twrp for this device is pretty stable, I haven't had any issues running it. So don't get spooked with it. But do make a back up, in case it glitches. I'm not sure what version it is for this device.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
That's what I was hoping to hear. As the reports of the stability come in for this new "SlimDesire" ROM I hope to by then have learned a lot more about how to do all of this. I must say that the 18 pages of discussion over at the [Root/S-OFF] Desire 530 Guide to Root thread were a bit confusing for someone with no more understanding of all this that I have. Some talk of instability or touch screens not working and patches. Definitely a learning curve. But I'm all for learning new things.

Edit:

I should say that I do think I have a good understanding of the steps to root, I'm just not sure which TWRP and SuperSu to download. If you guys could give a link here to the known versions to use I could have that part out of the way while we wait for this ROM.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
Supersu for flashing can be found here: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/

Twrp: 3.0.2-0

Remember, in order too install custom recovery, your s-on needs to be turned to S-off.

Before flashing supersu, or twrp make sure to do a backup via computer, in case anything goes wrong.

Btw, I wouldn't run an unsupported recovery. Could cause issues with your device. Better safe than sorry in this situation, as just routing will most likely void any warranty you may have on it.

To be blunt, DO NOT do it. You may very well regret it later, when/if your device bricks, of your provider locks you out of your device, and the unsupported twrp can't restore it to functioning condition again.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] omnifarious:
You can have s-on and still have custom recovery as I never paid to s-off my device. My bootloader is unlocked and it's also network unlocked.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AndroidSamurai:
Good day everyone,

As you know I've been working my butt off 50+ hrs a week and haven't had development time here in the last 2 weeks. I will have a small window of time today and tomorrow so I'll keep everyone updated on my progress.

From what I've read through other sites, the latest update for the device is the nougat update. Sadly my computer had Linux, and I can't find a way to run the installer with twrp on my device.

---------- Post added at 09:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

Btw, the update version is: 1.36.1550.14

That's odd. I've had Marshmallow. I've already got the 6.0.1 it came installed on my device since I've first purchased it.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] unicron_85:
So are any of these stable yet?
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
Not as of yet, as far as I'm aware.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
I guess I have the same problem. My problem started with trying to update the RUU Via Home Sync.

It failed and now won't complete the restore with TWRP. It gets to about 6% and and tries to reboot and stops at the HTC logo page.

I can get it into TWRP and can get it to power down but that's about it. Any suggestions would be great. Is there a cyanogen 14 ROM for this desire 530?
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
You're going to have to download the factory image, then put it into your sd card, then install it using the twrp recovery. And btw, cyanogenmod creators went separate ways. The closest is now lineage.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
Thanks,

That's what I thought. I can only guess that I will have trouble getting factory image onto the SD card.

I think I would have to put the SD card into a card reader and transfer it via my computer because the computer doesn't see the phone now. I can't transfer anything from the computer to the phone via USB cable.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
I had this same issue, but as long as you can get the computer to read your phone as you cycle the phone into the on state, can just drag the image into your sd card from the computer. Luckily I was able to do this, hopefully after a little tinkering around with your device you'll be able to do the same.

Good luck in recovering your device.

Your best bet is tho find someone with the same device, with twrp installed, and malicea back up from their service, or contact it directly about making the rom available. Unless someone has that device, and can or is willing tho try too make a back up for you too use. But I don't know otherwise.

[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
It started out on Metro PCS and T mobile, It is now Consumer Cellular and ATT
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
is your device unlocked for use with any provider?
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
Yes, rooted, Twrp, SuperSu, and until the problem it had Titanium backup but it is not there now and will not reinstall.

then it stopped and now only shows the HTC start up screen. Or it will boot to bootloader/download/recovery (twrp)

Nothing from twrp's install selection seems to allow it to install (the swipe to the right slider does not come on for anything in "Install". From "Restore I can choose the backup and it will get to about 460 mb of 4000ish and stop it then goes into a reboot that ends up at the HTC boot up screen.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
Try one of those, hopefully one of them will work for you. Though, you should be able to transfer the file into the device and move it into the sdcard, hopefully. my device did what yours is doing, and without removing the sdcard, i was some how able to put it into the sdcard. mind you, i was able to do it with linux, not windows. windows, you'll most likely have to plug the sdcard into your computer directly (i think).

I have the 530 1.01.617.27 (Unlocked/Developer). It is the only one of 3 that even tries to install via USB cable. (but it stops at about 460 mb.

The one I had before the problem won't try to install because it says the battery is to low. (it's not).

the phone is no seen by my computer but it seen to respond to some things.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
Try wiping the phones memory via twrp before attempting to install the new rom. that issue may be due to low memory. i had that issue as well when i recovered my device, as well.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
I tried that too (a few days ago)
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] thatone:
All i can recommend then, is inserting the card into your computer. Then transfer the rom onto the card, that way.
[HTC Desire 530 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AGummyBear:
I'll try that in a few days. I'll have to get a card reader 1st.

Just remember to completely wipe your phone before you try to overall the rom otherwise it'll fail.
