How to remove Starhub button - Touch 3G General

Hi all,
I've just purchased a HTC Touch 3G online from a Sigaporean seller. I'm in Australia by the way. When I put my 3 sim card in I do get reception and everything works fine.
However I've noticed this Starhub button at the bottom of the screen to the left of the Programs button. Also towards the top of the screen, right underneath the Start menu, I can see 3G on the right, but I see another sign/picture that also says starhub.
I think that Starhub is a mobile provider in Singapore, but my question is: is there anyway of removing those buttons?
Thanks in advance.

I solved it
Hi guys,
Just wanted to let everyone know that I've got rid of those starhub buttons by doing a rom flash to the stock English rom. Thanks to all the people who viewed this and might be out there looking for an answer for me. I really appreciate it.

May I know what you've done/used to flash and the process involved to get the stock HTC ROM without all the telco extras? Thanks.

It's actually pretty straight forward.
You just need to download the stock ROM from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441673
After it finishes, run it on your PC, make sure your phone is connected to the PC and you have an active ActiveSync link.
Then just follow the prompts in the installation package. Hope this helps.

You can edit the registry
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Home

HTC Jade
Could you please tell me how to remove the STARHUB TV using regedit without reflashing the ROM?
Thanks

Try using M2DC from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392 to customize your Manilla2D internet tab. I have not tried it before though.

WM5 Rogers ROM

Does anyone have, or know where I might be able to find a Rogers WM5 ROM for the TyTN? Is this even possible to find or am I SOL?
I'm looking for one also
Same here.. I would like to have one onhand just in case something goes wrong with my phone and I need to send in for repairs.
I have the WM6 Rom from HTC's official site installed right now (working perfectly by the way), and not too sure if Rogers would support a return if something went wrong.
Thanks
i just got my new rogers tytn today. I was planning on making a backup and updating ROM. if this is WM5 i will post backup file once I figure out how to do this.
That would be awesome as I am sure lots of here would appreciate a backup incase of warranty triggered
Alright... so I am going to get to this tomorrow morning - but I have no clue how to backup the existing ROM. I see a lot on how to install a NEW ROM, but nothing that I can find about the backup.
Can somebody guide me in the right direction so that I don't screw this up! LOL
Thanks

Bump......
If I am not mistaken somebody has already done this.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_DumpedRoms
I will just have to find out how I check which one i have.
Is there somebody that can do this to the Rogers ROM?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoReconstruct
I believe that will do what you need in order to flash the original ROM back onto your device.
My brain is getting sore from all of the reading about all of this. Sometimes I think life would be easier if I wasn't a "geek".
I'm probably a newb to this, but I've managed to create my own rogers ROM and have it successfully work. The only thing missing my own precompiled ROM was the Rogers splash screen and the Radio which is suppose to be 1.42...
If there is somewhere I can upload the packaged Rogers ROM please let me know and I'll quickly upload it for everyone.
the files in the Rogers rom are all RAW files. how do you load it to your device?

ziadsa, thank you very much. I am looking at moving to a new phone, even though the TyTN has served me well, so I want to pass it on in original condition. Of course, I will be pointing the new owner to xda-developers. The next owner may want more from the phone, like I got.

I now have the original ROMs back in place and it works beautifully, but the splash screen still shows PDAviet.
Does anyone know how to correct this and get the Rogers screen back in place? I know this forum has been quiet for a long time, so if I don't get a response here, I will try with a new thread.
Thanks in advance.

Backing up ROM image "Orange UK" Help please.

Been running the Touch 3G (jade) for a month or so now...
Very impressed with it, running TomTom 7 etc without any problems...
I would like to get rid of the Orange UNIQUE service so I can run either Wifi or GPRS not the wierd Orange idea..
Is there a way I can backup my installed ROM in the phone should anything go wrong or I not like what I want to use in it's place... ???
Next question...
Having made sure I can get phone back to original should I need to, can anyone direct me to the location of a STANDARD HTC rom image to use on the phone. I have previously flashed a HTC TyTn (one) with a new schaps rom with great success but not sure what is available for the Jade..
Any help much appreciated...

Hi,I have just unlocked my Orange touch HD phone and am using T-Mobile,if I try to get on the internet there is still Orange world as the default,can I remove this in some way ,either windows or the registry please.
Don
you can remove the whole branding e.g start up screen and your issue. you will have to flash a stock original rom or a modified cooked rom. you can search on how to do this.

Orange branded Jade question.

Hi all, im thinking of getting a Touch 3G (Jade) as a second phone, my first being a touch Diamond 2, and am thinking of buying one from E-Bay orange branded.
My question is if i get one, it seems i can get it sim unlocked easy enough, but once i get it sim unlocked can i dol the hspl and flash any rom i want as i have been doing with my diamond 2? Or will being originally a branded Orange one prevent me from doing this?
Thanks in advance.
You can easily SIM unlock it via ebay, i did it this way. And after that when you do HSPL you can put whatever ROM you want.
Thanks for the reply, yeah i thought that but i think i will get it unlocked by Olipro/Olinex from the link in the hard spl thread, i feel i could trust their service more
Hi again. Ok i have bought a Touch 3g that was Orange branded, i have purchased the sim unlocking utility from Olinex, got hard spl running and tried a few roms to see which suits me, but whichever rom i use i am still getting the Orange start screen before the rom loads up. Not to big a problem really but if possible i would like to remove it, any ideas guys n gals ?

I'm using an Orange branded Touch, after flashing a 6.5 rom it changed the boot picture to the HTC one, then I went back to a 6.1 rom because I like the start button at the top.

kindly help me to debrand my T-MOBILE HD2

Hello everyone!
i have one t-mobile branded firmware htc hd2 which i bought it from and uk based ebay seller..its unlock..and i can recieve and make calls..
but im not able to use internet on the phone bcos it has settings for t-mobile network..
and i also tried to upgrade it through htc website but whenever im trying it says these updates are not for this serial number...
kindly help me in debranding my phone so that i can use this in australia with full functions..thanks a lot in advance..
trust me that would be a great help from you.
If this is a UK T-Mob HD, then its a contract phone and seems strange that it is up for sale so soon. Unless it has been stolen - I don't think we should help with stolen phones, unless you're willing to gvie me the IMEI number so I can check here with T-Mob.

Hi ABBABY,
i donĀ“t understand your problem. Use either SPSL or HPSL (guarantee issues) and try the image you like.

Im not exactly sure if you want help making your internet work with your sim, or if you want help taking the tmobile rom off and putting a stock or custom one on..
If you just want help with internet settings then download the attached file and install on your phone. Then run the connection setup program in the start menu, connections screen and it should set up your internet and mms settings for the network you select (if its available).
If you want to put a custom rom on your device then follow my flashing a leo rom for noobs link in my signature to install HardSPL and then you can flash any of the roms in the rom development section to take off the tmobile branding and give you whatever you want.

What network are you trying to use it with?
I'm not too sure if you can change the connection settings easy on the T-Mobile ROM, I'd recommend flashing with the HTC unbranded ROM and then you can just select your service provider and it all works sweet.

I work for T-mobile and the only way you can change these settings is indeed to change to HTC unbranded ROM or any other ROM of your choice.

You must have flashed one of the TMobile Test Roms during your travels, which has that splash screen on it. Custom Roms dont include a splash screen so it wont be overwritten when flashing other roms afterwards.
Download the attachment and unzip to a folder on your pc. Sync using your usb cable and run the included customruu.exe file to flash back the original htc splash screen.
