Hello everyone

My friend told me about flashing ROM's and how it is all so good LMAO

Anyway, I do not have this phone yet but I will be getting it in about 2-3 weeks. I am aware it is a new phone and I am not the most knowledgeable on this subject but around what time is a custom ROM coming out for this phone? How long does it usually take?

Also, is flashing ROM's safe? Is it any more dangerous than flashing firmware on a Samsung Jet? Because I have done that before :D

I would usually leave my phones on stock but I am hearing of some software related issues with the Desire HD and wondering if they would be fixed in a custom ROM?

Thanks.

My phone was rooted and lag-fixed using RyanZa's OCLF but I removed everything and unrooted and just applied the JI6 update using the tutorial posted by youneek.

I completed the 2nd part and I tested my phone and everything is working, but I still get the message saying "Congrats, T-Mobile has sent you an update..." Shouldn't it recognize that I'm already on JI6?
[Windows Phone 7 General] ryotgz:
Link

When you remove the battery cover, you’ll see the SIM card slot and next to it a metal cover that’s just about the right size for a memory card. The cover is secured by the phone’s backing that is riddled with tiny screws with "VOID" stickers covering them. You also have several metal tabs/hooks that pinch into the backing to help hold it in place plus, what appears to be, a plastic rivet holding things down as well. On top of all that, there’s no mention of accessing the microSD card slot in the User’s Manual.

Hi, I've just installed OpenDesire 4.0.36 on my HTC desire and I see the wallpaper faded. The same wallpaper on other ROM (original and modded) doesn't have this problem. Can U tell me why?

Thanks in advance.
[Desire General] Bister57:
Hi,

This is my first post on this great fora and I'm happy to use it.

I'll get soon a Desire which SIM locked on Orange. I'll have from Orange the code for unlocked the phone.

Should I do that before I root to to put an other ROM?

Yes, I don't want to keep the ROM from Orange and I'd like to try some homemade ROM :)

Thanks.
[Desire General] lolka23:
Hello mate!

I did unlocked my phone first(orange UK) and then I used the unrevoked method.

Worked first time.

I have froyo now. :)

I am not sure but i think it should work the other way around as well.

Good luck!
[Desire General] church473:
On the flip side I didn't unlock. Rooted using unrevoked and now using miui rom. Briefly also installer opendesire and defrost without unlocking. Also the last few radios haven't locked the phone either.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] i n f a m o u s:
Something feels unsettling... I used KiNgXKxLiCk Hero/Sense ROM (from G1 thread) that was ported from the HTC Legend, and I ignored a step but my phone functions just fine with some minor bugs and lag.

The prerequisite for this ROM is any radio and Death SPL, however I couldn't I couldn't get the required SPL to work with this ROM and I would get a blank screen whenever I tried to boot up my phone. I'm not even sure if partitioned my SD card properly as well...

Anyone here have any experience with this Rom that can explain to if there's something I'm missing?

BTW, I'm using myTouch 1.2 with stock SPL and radio.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] AdrianK:
What you were reading was specific to the Dream, not Sapphire. You're fine, carry on... As for the lag you'll probably want to try a 2.1 Hero port, Legend has 384mb RAM, Hero and Sapphire (32A like your myTouch 1.2) has 192.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] i n f a m o u s:
The ROM I'm currently using is a 2.1 Android port. Also the myTouch you're referring to is the one without the 3.5mm headjack, my myTouch (3.5mm headjack) comes with 288mb of memory.

Anyways, is any other Hero/Sense ROM ports that are stable enough for daily use?
[Vibrant General] Sincitybronze:
I woke up this morning and was unable to use data services (2G and 3G) unless I use wifi. Tmobile walked me through the usual troubleshooting steps (reboot, remove battery/sim card) and found no network problems in my area. I would be grateful for any suggestions. I'm using Bionix Fusion with Core V1 Kernel.
[Vibrant General] mrsbelpit:
I had this problem last week with no "network outage". For some reason my phone, which was set to gsm/wcdma(auto) would not switch to edge automatically even when 3g was not working. try switching to gsm only, and see if you can get edge. I had to use it at my house for a few days, but I called tmo and they ended up opening a service ticket because I usually get great 3g. Well, it is fixed now, and turned out to be something with the network.

eta: I went through all the battery pull, sim card, etc, as well.
[Vibrant General] turbosix:
im odin'ing my **** back to stock and taking the phone up to tmo to get a new sim card after work hnnnnnnggggggggggg i cant take it anymore. 3g signal, 4 bars service, and i get like 300kbps down and <100kbps up. something's got to be wrong.
[Vibrant General] Sincitybronze:
I always use edge anyway but it's not working right now. It's good to know the service ticket resulted in an eventual fix. Thanks for the response.

[Fascinate Android Development] cmanbrooks:
Well I decided to disable Voodoo to try out this 1.6 OC kernel. Pretty routine disable, robot voice confirms it worked, reboot, but now it seems to be stuck on the boot animation?

I know it takes a long time to boot, but I waited 50 minutes on the first boot and 30 on the second try with no results at all. Should I try leaving it for more than an hour or am I going to need to flash with Odin. Obviously I'd like to avoid that, so what are my options guys?
[Fascinate Android Development] chopper the dog:
Average voodoo enable/disable reboot for me has been 12min. Sounds like odin or the remove voodoo thread in development.

good day.
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
No need to flash with Odin. Old-school, man. Old school.

Hit up the "remove voodoo lagfix" thread for the voodoo uninstaller CWM zip.

Flash, reboot, and be sure to wipe when yer done. ;)

[Fascinate Android Development] cmanbrooks:
Yeah I've been working on doing that. Only problem is mounting my SD to get the .zip on there. Computer recognizes it as a removable disk fine, but when trying to access it, it comes back with "please insert disk into removable disk drive"
[Fascinate Android Development] suppliesidejesus:
Forget mounting it as a drive. When in CWM, use adb to push the file onto the sdcard.

adb push [filename].zip /sdcard/[filename].zip

Then follow the according instructions.

Looking for a Overclocked nonvoodoo kernel that will allow a custom boot animation. JT and Dirrk seem to have plenty of kernels but none seem to say that it supports custom boot animations.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snoopXR6:
You will need to set rw access before it will work assuming your using adb use the command

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system

then proceed to remove files

(i think thats the right command atleast)

The other way would be to use ti backup or root explorer (button on the upper right to set rw access)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ttxdragon:
Email can be safely removed.

Latitude, Places, Navigation are all part of Google Maps, so if you don't care for it you can go ahead.

Google Talk you should be able to remove the main application safely, but the market (and gmail) depend on some functionality within the talk service providers (for one or another odd reason) so I'd be careful on that one. (At least it was that way on 1.6, didn't experiment with gTalk yet, since I tend to use it)

Inside APP EVERY APK is sitting there which will be installed. I've removed a lot of Things i've never used (incl. Moxier and Time-/MediaScape) and after a Factory-Reset everything was away and not installed anymore.

Additional, the SuperUser.APK resists there therefore the Phone is still rooted after a Factory-Reset.
