i would also like to have the Htc Touch Viva Blue Theme.....i dont Know what its called but i saw it on my friend phone and it was pleasent...
Hey, u know that your phone can brick, right?
You really should read a lot about flashing before doing it.
Start >here<
After that proceed here
If you read everything carefully and want to flash a new ROM be shure to
do it step by step as it's suggested.
And I guess you have read it quite often, but you have to find your own ROM.
Try some and then decide which to use. It's most satisfying^^
And yes, 6.1 is more stable than 6.5 for now so you should take a 6.1 ROM.
But have a look at these two ROMs. I have tryed them both besides many other and I used the A.Z.T.O.R. series for a long time -> very stable and really fast! Will use it again when X3 will be released I don't know if they fit all of your personal needs, but especially for some special theme or so on you should search the Thread you posted this request
A.Z.T.O.R.

Good luck!
PS.: Please use a topic that contains some more information next time
oh dang i could only get to the first sentence because i have cdma
Thanks for the reply marcel .....i know that i am risking it...but hey...better to die than live a coward all my life ....i want to go thru this...
and okay nxt time i will name the thread more appealingly....
I would recommend two options. You can use Cloudy 1.1 with and without Manila. I have tried both. The WITH Manila has the TF3D with it which is very nice. However, my preference is WITHOUT Manila and then add SPB Mobile Shell 3.0. This is more user friendly.
Both options are very fast and with lots of free ram (more than 50Mb)...
I am not sure if these work with CDMA - please check first.
By the way, I think there is so much great help on these sites (and PPC Geeks) that you will always find a way to get your phone looking and feeling the way you like.
Good luck!
Oops...!!!
Sorry i forgot to mention..the Diamond i right now have was flashed earlier...so right now its having a custom rom by diamond project team....well i am looking for a move basic rom.....which is almost or most likely official rom...
if you want a official rom you can visit HTC.com and download the latest official rom that have been released. whether or not you can use the custom spl without doing any harm i have no idea about since i do not know anything about roms and flashing i just know that HTC has official roms on their site
I think u can download ROMs from HTC if u own an original-HTC device, right?
I wasn't able to download their ROMs because I bought my Diamond from a German reseller
-> Same phone, nearly the same look but an unsupported IMEI (?)
And again I can propose an A.Z.T.O.R. ROM^^
Alpha Zero Tweaked Official Roms = A.Z.T.O.R.
And as your phone was flashed before you should have no probs flashing a new ROM^^ So try some and then choose
The Whole Story!!!
Actually The Diamond i Right now have was bought off the gray market..it was actually a orange network locked phone...so the phone is right now unlocked,gray market product....
Okie....i will take a look at AZTOR..
Ahem...
Well i decided to go with this hardspl....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400402 but i cannot seem to understand which radio file to choose....and Roms are Relatively not a big problem...i will try AZTOR OR Duttys..plz gimme a latest stable Radio file...

Rom Ver : 1.93.921.2 WWE
Rom date : 14/08/08

Hi
i have been here for some time and i have searched but was not able to find anything on the same anyway their was one nice person who was kind enough to reply to my PM regarding the same and now i seem to understand its like the Hard SPL done for Win Mo
root/
firstly to understand root you need a little linux understanding, a simple definitive answer is here...
http://www.linfo.org/root.html
now back to the tattoo, you will see in the first few threads that guides and how-to's are available to help you root your phone, its easier now than ever,
theres a simple click and wait method, (it works well but you wont really understand whats going on using that method )
the SPL is not the same as root, hard spl allows cooked roms to be flashed and on some devices it re-maps the device memory to give more space ( see G1 danger spl for details )
follow any instruction very carefully if your used to windows mobile - its all a bit different with android, there is so much scope though and lots to learn which is the best bit i feel..
===== have fun =====

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general
nice info guys thanks, from me too

OMG where do I start?? Blackstone Upg?

My Uncle gave me his old HTC HD (Telstra Branded) running 6.1
I would like to upgrade it to 6.5 but have no Idea where to start or where I can get a cooked rom from .
I found a tute on flashing the 1.56 roms but the more I read the more confused I become. There is soooooo much information on here I am suffering from information overload and I cant seem to find a really basic step by step guide or where to download the cooked roms from all the links I follow are broken.
Its very frustrating for a newbie!!
Can someone please give me a leg up!

Hey Darkfibre,
Welcome to the world of phone flashing! First of all it's very important to know what kind of phone is it, is it GSM or CDMA? After that, you'll have to unlock the phone in order to flash a custom rom. If you've got a GSM device, then XDA is your best friend, if you have a CDMA phone then head over to ppcgeeks.com. Each site will have detailed instructions on how to unlock and flash your phone. Then it's just a matter of trying out a few roms until you find one that suits you. Goodluck and happy flashing!!

No worries, just follow this step by step guide:

It'll answer all questions.
Thanks the heads up guys.
I am just wondering what uncle is going to say when I tell him I turned his HD into a BRICK.
Here goes nothing
One can always use a good door stop! Goodluck!
Hi everyone.
Well I built up the courage and now its 6.5 Energy.Blackstone 21908.Sense2.5 rom.
WOW Wat a buzz when it boots up in the new rom.
Love the new ROMS its made the old HD a new phone. Now its smooth and responsive with great usability.
Just LOOOOVS the sense 2.5 interface.
Cant believe how much I have learnt in the last few weeks
You right Krook this could get adictive!!
I would like to get a pinch zoom working just to rub it in the nose of the apple buds!!
I loaded pinch to zoom but it didnt work. Is there a Rom where it works, or should I stay with opera 10.
I also run the android app on it but its a bit micky at the moment.
This **** is really exciting but HOW do you learn it all!!
I really bow to all you guys U the MEN!!!
Hey Darkfibre,
Pinch to zoom isn't really rom specific. I know I had a bit of trouble getting it going the first time. I believe opera 10 is still not supported but that may have changed. It works for me in Opera 9.7 build 35964. You may need to install a different version of opera to get it running. Still not really worth the effort imho but it's a great start.
Welcome to the community!!

[Q] Deaf dude need help!

I need some help. I wasn't sure what do I need to install the android on hd2? I know Froyo 2.2 is the latest update for Android. But do I need to put some special rom in it or what? HSPL? SPL? I don't even know what are these. Can anyone just make a short simple instruction how to install android on hd2?
instant gratification is why everything sucks. work for your knowledge read a little bit and you'll see that other people have put hundreds of articles just for us. search and you'll find them even quicker. i can't tell you how many times they're posted and re posted everywhere.
if you're going to be on a forum at least learn how to use it this is just a waste.
Try Your luck there:

But be sure You have the knowledge and ability to setup Your HD2 newly if You crash it. It took me an entire night stuck with the Radio-flash which corrupted my HD2 and I had to go back to stock-ROM without Froyo running.

[Q] Need some thorough guidance

Hey Guys,
Sorry for this post already ha. I am not familiar with this phone i am trying to help my brother out. The wiki and a lot of general info seems fairly outdated. Is this all still the most efficient way of doing things? I have not played around with the phone yet so i am going to ask some probably dumb questions. I have an SGS phone which everything seems much easier on.
The phone i need help with is the Mytouch3g 3.5mm (I believe this is the 32A from what i have read)
My question is after rooting can i use rom manager for recovery and to put a new rom on preferably the cyanogen froyo rom. I believe is listed.
If not is there any chance someone could walk me through the process. I have read up but I have not seen a step by step to getting a Rom fully installed and in the rom areas i see a lot about changing radio and such stuff.
If i could get a PM or post or even link to where i am referring to that would be great. Also how does one go about wiping this device before changing mess. Alright thank you so much for your time.
