Hi

You can absolutely flash the device with any stock or cooked ROM.

If you prefer to go for a stock ROM, the latest one is WWE 1.66.405.2.

You can download ROMs here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Leo/ROMs

If you go for a cooked ROM then obviously look for the developers page and read up on the ins and outs of his/her ROM.

If this is your first flash, I would recommend having a read of this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=609477

You are also welcome to pop over the Whirlpool forum where you will find several people who have flashed their devices with new ROMs (stock and cooked).

The thread is long and there are several preceding thread; however, read the last few pages and jump on in. There are plenty of folk there happy to offer advice and support from our sunny shores.

By the way, I flashed the non-Telstra device from WWE 1.48 to 1.66 without a problem. :)
[HD2 General] Sentinel196:
Perfect! Thankyou for the reply!!!
[HD2 General] Sentinel196:
OK so I just finished reading through all the info on flashing and am feeling much more confident now.

Just one more question, what radio version did you install to go with the 1.66 ROM? or didn't you need to upgrade it, if so what version are you running?

EDIT: Depending on what image you use, it would appear that the radio ROM is flashed with the ROM? correct?

Thanks :)

EDIT2: I just figured out that I can download the official rom from the Hong Kong HTC site. It accepts my SN so I wont need an additional bootloader to install the rom.

The version is 1.72.831.1

The URL is http://www.htc.com/hk-en/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=906
[HD2 General] Sentinel196:
Successfully flashed 1.72.831.1 last night using the standard bootloader.

Took about 6 minutes and no issues at all. Took about 40 minutes to get everything set back up the way I had it before so not too bad.

Straight out of the box the phone seems far more responsive than it did with 1.48. Faster still with the Glyph cache tweak and VSYNC off.

Radio signal seems better and the WiFi seems to be reliable with automatically connecting to my configured netowrks as I move around.

No negative side effects as of yet!
[HD2 General] Franwella:
I'm sorry I didn't get back and respond last night; however, it sounds like everything has run smoothly and been a success.

Excellent news!

I find it so satisfying flashing a new ROM. It's kind of like purging the old and starting afresh with something new that suits your needs.

Have fun!

What is the fastest 1.5 / 1.6 ROM with no need for partitions on SD?

As close to a stock 1.5 ROM as possible :)

you're not going to find a faster 1.5 rom that is fully functional.

Has anyone got experience of a Vodafone supplied Desire? Is the ROM different to the standard SIM free option, and is it locked to Vodafone?

I couldn't get any clear answers from my local Vodafone shop.
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Phone will be unlocked as in you can use any SIM in it as all their phone these days are like that. You might get a splash screen or something, though, on turn on/shut down
[Desire General] smeeg:
Not even a splash screen, whoopeee
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
sorry, but no.

The phone may well be sim unlocked, but it wil be locked to the vodafone ROMs.

Your rom version will be 1.15.161.4

Of course, if you bought it from carphone warehouse or somewhere like that, then you probably got a sim free handset anyway, as vodafone don;t have them in stock yet...
[Desire General] th3d0g:
Yea my Vodafone Desire arrived yesterday (typing from it now hehe). It will be locked to Vodafone Roms only. Keep meaning to check out the validity of the Desire root info on the net.
[Desire General] Tyler1981:
Hi All,

Anyone with a Vodafone Desire care to comment on the Vodafone ROM? Is it as bad as the Orange ROM some users have been complaining about? Are there any bad / good points with it? ( Apart from not being rooted and being able to install A2SD and so on, which i might do later ). I am getting my Vodafone Desire tomorrow, thanks.
[Desire General] spooki37:
I've been using the Vodafone rom for three weeks and there's no Vodafone customisation at all, not even a Voda logo, the build is 1.15.161.4.

I got my Desire straight from Vodafone online. Registered the phone on HTC's website and it happily accepted the serial number.
[Desire General] b0yce:
I too can confirm this. Ordered from Vodafone themselves the ROM is 1.15.161.4 and is Unlocked (SIM Free). No Vodafone customisation, logos at all.

I can't confirm the ROM locked to a Vodafone ROM though, but it runs very well!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Hi,

Made this for myself. Maybe others find it useful too.

It is a little mortscript script that launches the program you want by pressing and holding the endkey. Install the cab and edit "endkey.mscr" (which you will find in the windows directory) to define the program you want to run.

I use the script to launch (the great) iPhoneToday app as an alternative for the "action screen". To do so, I wrote the following line in "endkey.mscr":

Run("\Program Files\iPhoneToday\iPhoneToday.exe")

Of course you can enter any mortscrip code you want in the script...

Happy endkey-ing

----

BTW, I've added a seperate "endkey.mscr" file, in case you find this more comfortable. You can edit this file on your computer and copy it seperately to the windows dir on your device. (after you have installed the cab)

ThX!!

I searched for this a while and found nothing, work's nice ^^
[Desire General] nprussell:
EDIT - Scrub that... it's a known issue.

Hi all,

Anyone else noticed this issue?

Try searching for:

Paypal

Rockon

Google Earth

They're simply not there...

I know how to fix this on a custom rom, but not a clue on a stock rom where we have no access to write to /system.
[Desire General] Wekkel:
For the search, it is nice to have this issue clarified for future reference. It will probably cross the minds of many others in the near future.
[Desire General] O and O:

Still an issue!

But why, you state known issue, any threads on it?

Hi guys, I'm pretty new here so I hope someone can help me.

I am having serious issues trying to load ANY new ROM onto my missus HTC Vodafone Magic 32B Details -

SAPPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G

HBOOT-1.33.0004 (SAP10000)

CPLD-10

RADIO-2.22.19.26I

Apr 9 2009,23:30:40

Since getting the phone second hand from eBay it has played up like nothing else, it now will not even boot into the OS, I’m pretty sure the guy I bought it from, who I cannot get in contact with, stuffed something up when he unlocked it for different carriers. But I'm positive it is an OS issue and not a straight hardware fault.

Anyway I have spent about a day and a half mucking about on here trying things and reading a HEAP of stuff and I just can’t seem find a definitive answer to my problem.

I have tried installing many different roms:

Qteknology Hero (WWE Dump) for G2 Magic-Voda 32B v1.7 Swap

Qteknology Hero (WWE Dump) for G2 Magic-Voda 32B v1.6 Swap.zip

st0kes-v1.4.1

HTC_Magic_Vodafone_AU_Original_ROM

and a few others I cannot remember.

I am using Amon RA recovery ROM, I have rooted the phone based on method 2 in the magic rooting wiki (everything went smoothly), I have updated the SPL to version 2005 which are all the apparent pre requisites for performing this kind of operation.

Anyway down to the problem every time I try and apply a ROM, by renaming it to update.zip, copying it to the root of my SD card, then loading up RA recovery ROM and going to flash zip from SDcard I get the following messages:

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Install from sdcard...

finding update package...

opening update package...

verifying update package...

E:corrupt file:

<various file names based on which ROM I’m trying to use, always the same one on each ROM though>

E:verification failed

Installation aborted

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

This is starting to drive me insane, I really need to get ANY usable ROM on there I don’t care which one, otherwise I have a AU$400 lump of useless technology.

Any help people can provide me with be unbelievably appreciated.

Thanks in advance
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sanman1185:
i cant guarantee i can help, but i will try to see if i can, or also help wit some research for ya

first, what version of amon ra are you using???

2nd, do you know if you got 1.5 or 1.6 firmware???

idk too much about firmware, all i know is my mytouch was cupcake when i got it (1.5) then updated to 1.6 ota...

also are you making sure that you wipe before you try to load the roms???
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Ishraqiyun:
Hi mate, thanks for getting back to me so quickly

The version of amon ra i am using is recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.6.2G.img this seemed to be the right one as i have a google branded phone

I am not sure what version of firmware i have, is there an easy way to check? the only real details I have is what i get from the fastboot screen as i posted above

And yes I am definately wiping the phone before I install the roms, every single time

Thanks :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sanman1185:
well i just did a few searches and i couldn't find out how to check the firmware...

i dont want to tell you to try something and then crash your system, but...lol...

i would try to "Unroot" the device, basically placing it back to 1.5 firmware and then you can "Root" it yourself.

if you want to try this here is the link for the 1.5 software

link for tutorial:

http://theunlockr .com/2009/08/22/how-to-unroot-your-mytouch-3g/

link for file:

http://www.megaupload .com/?d=BLM4EDGE

no space in the url tho...

all you have to do is,

boot into recovery

go to wipe, and wipe the top three options

go back to the main screen and select Usb-Ms toggle

then plug your device in via usb

and drop the file to your sd card. (not in a sub folder)

then safely remove your phone from pc

then press home on your phone to disable usb

then choose power off.

now to turn it back on,

holding Volume "Down" + "Power"

DON'T PRESS ANYTHING YET

after it reads the image it should show at the bottom, Action:yes, and then click trackball,

let that run all the way thru, and make sure you have enough battery juice, for this to run all the way thru.

when it's complete it will ask if you want reboot, then click Action for yes (trackball)

i believe that should unroot your phone but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

do as much research as possible and also question others about this method and see if you can come to a conclusion in which you are satisfied.

as always, i am in no way responsible for the Bricking or Exploding of your device...

here is a link that has great tutorials & and also you might want to check youtube, thats where i findout how to alot of things...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] KAwAtA:
Um, you already have amon ra recovery on there. I assume you've already bought it rooted?

You can only check the firmware by booting up your phone and going into settings. Since you've wiped and aren't able to install a rom, you aren't able to use the phone right now, am i correct?

sanman1185, I'm glad you try to help but you gotta get more info from him first. Cause if he's already rooted, doing what you're telling him to do won't make much progress. Edit: Ok, he's already rooted. You're just telling him to do what he's already done? And he doesn't have any firmware because his phone lacks any rom right now.

Anyways, answer some of those and don't be too worried about bricking your phone. The main reason that people brick their phones is when they touch the radio and SPL.

Edit: Ok I just read that you rooted your phone so you don't need to "unroot" and root it again.

You also put on SPL 2005 instead, so post your boot info again. I assume it's an ENG SPL too, if you haven't found a solution, send me a PM and I'll help you on google talk / MSN or something.

Ps. You don't have to rename the roms to update.zip, his new recovery allows you to flash w/e zip you want. Try another SD card as well, maybe that'll help? but if not, yeah just pm me
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sanman1185:
KAwAtA - def. understand what your sayin, only reason i was thinkin to unroot and start fresh is cuz, when i started flashin roms, i ended up being stuck on the boot screen for over 30mins. pulled the battery, then read somewhere to partition sd card, then that wiped the zip from my card, lol...so what i did instead of placing another rom on the device, is "unrooted" and started fresh from the start. my theory is if you think your "Jack'd" then start from the beginning and find your mistake.

and if he did unroot and it ran Cupcake on device, and actually loaded wouldn't that have been making progress??? since he couldnt get it to load in the first place???

like i said just a thought, theory, or 2centz (sense)...

but again, i'm glad someone actually responded with a diff method or with additional ?'s, so this way he can get answers from all angle's ya kno...

and if you guys do figure this nifty lil'thang out, could you post what you guys did on here, so myself or future ppl'z that may run into this can have it as a ref??? thnx... Pce

audio out from hd2 to bridge :

When I turn on my phone i can use my sliding keyboard without any problems but when the phone hibernate and i awake it the keys react really strange. Every key send correct symbol to application but with enter key !

If I connect usb cable to the computer everything works fine, but when i plug out usb the problem starts again (with charger connected to usb problem exist).

I tried three roms: Orange, HTC and cooked WM 6.1, and two radio roms for windows 6.0 and 6.1 with no success :-(

sometimes i see removable drive win explorer, but after clicking on this windows tells me - please insert disk into this drive,

and hero detaches mounted drive with notification about preparing sd card for usage.

i faced with with problem not after next flashing custom rom, but after that i tried to wipe data and flash various roms, the same result.

how do you think this is hardware issue? or recommend me to try another steps to fix this, please

but it doesn't work completely.

Actually, I've tried to connect my Hero via usb with XP, Vista, Ubuntu, OSX

and got the same problem,

host loses the connection to hero,

sometimes host can't connect after plugging cable ,

sometimes host can transfer small files, but when I try to copy large file to the device and host loses connection during the copy process.

looks like a problem with usb connector/controller on device side,

like power trouble, low voltage on usb

your opinion?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raikalo:
I have an Eris that is running the first 2.1 leak from RiverRunner. Yesterday the phone took a fall off a balcony onto concrete. Gravity + hard surface = phone malfunctions.

Basically, here's the problem. The phone still works fine, but the screen won't display anything. The screen won't turn on at all, actually. The menu/search/home/back buttons still light up, the phone still rings and makes notification noises and everything. I called in insurance and they sent me a new Eris.

Problem is....I don't have a backup of my old Eris, and I can't remember every app that was on the phone. Most of them were free, so the market doesn't remember my downloads. I CANNOT see anything on the screen.

Is there any way I can backup the old eris' apps without being able to see anything on the screen?

(My new eris is running 2.1 root, Ivan's version, in case that helps for any reason.)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gohamstergo:
you could try to plug in your eris and hope you left usb debugging enabled. if not, maybe mimic the presses on the touchscreen and hope youre navigating to the correct place to turn it on, then:

adb pull data/app desktop

or, i guess you don't really need the apks, you just need a list of installed apps so you could

adb shell
cd /data/app
ls

(thats a lowercase L)

mind you, if you 'pull' all the APKs, you wont be backing up any saved data, just the app itself. so in that case youre better off just installing from market.

**MOD move to general thread please**
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raikalo:
I don't need the user data, I just need a list of what I had installed. I can't remember them all.

The touchscreen doesn't work anymore. The home buttons, etc, still respond to touch but the screen doesn't.

I'm pretty sure I didn't have USB debugging installed, but it's not a huge deal. Can I still pull a list of installed apps without usb debugging?

Also, is there a way to wipe the eris, since I can't see anything?

Sorry about the wrong forum. I forgot to change subcategories before I asked.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gohamstergo:
How do you know it doesnt work, you cant see it :P And I'm pretty sure the home buttons ARE part of the same touchscreen surface, since you can drag your lockscreen, etc into that area and you still have control of it ;) so perhaps it IS really working. so try to mimic the touches to turn on USB debugging. (Menu > Settings > Applications > Development > Usb Debugging.) do it on both phones at the same time so you get the movements right.

But without USB debugging turned on, you can't use any ADB commands
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raikalo:
True, I guess the home buttons etc could be the same surface.

I'll mimic the debugging movements when I get home.

The main reason I thought the scteen was completely gone was that the buttons respond with haptic feedback when pressed, the screen does not. Then again, the lock screen coulda prevented that.

Hello everybody

i have a att htc tilt2 phone & the keyboard remapping software "RhodiumKbdControl_GSM" by tarkim works great on it,i remapped my PTT button to camera button so now whn i press my ptt button it opens the camera application,but i dont want this, instead i want tht in camera aplication whn i press the ptt,it should click the photo,now is this possible? if yes can any one tell me how to do this
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
Yes, possible. You can map any button to perform differently depending on what application is active.

You probably have your PTT button mapped with the parameters similar to this screenshot. And your "Run program" action is pointing to your Camera application.

The asterisk (*) in the "Rule" means that the action you specified will happen every time you hit the PTT button.

You now just have to set a new rule to specify another action that will only take place when the Camera application is active. To do this, tap the plus icon (+) next to the "Rule" dropdown menu. Pull your stylus out. Open your Camera application. Stick your stylus back in.

Then set up your new rule like the following screenshot. (You're basically telling your device to use the PTT key as the Enter key only when the Camera application is active.)
