Hi,
I bought myself yesterday a Magic (32A), but the pre-owner flashed it with Capyslide. a few things annoy me (GPS doesn´t work properly,...) so I want to recover the original status. Therefore I downloede the original Update (RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_3.05.401.3_release_signed_NoDriver.exe) but it doesn´t work - what shall I do?? please help me
Download and flash CursorSense rom from here....it's based on the last official 1.5 release and with little changes to it's integrity....it's also faster then official release is. But of course there are ways of making gps work. Btw if you wish to have gps working on cursorsense or even your original rom (which can also be found here, rooted), you first need to reflash the radio because 2.1 roms don't get along with 1.5 on new radio.
no link
sorry but there was no link - how can i install it?
For that, I cannot help you because I would have to write a looong text to explain it all to you. First of all, you need to place rom in zip format to the root of your sdcard, reboot into recovery and wipe data and after that flash the rom....you can find lots and lots of tutorials here and you need to read them all....very carefully. Btw this is not for dev related, but general. And as for the links, for pit's sake, there's a search function here and also numbers down below for you to select on what page you wish to go....you'll find it probably either on this first page or second.
Moved to General since it's not about ROM Development.

Heya everyone,
I have browsed this site before and loaded software onto my P4350 before.
I now have a Touch Dual (Nike), and would like to put the same software on the phone. I got it right a while ago... sort of (some apps still had bugs).
Could someone make it real easy for me and post the link to the latest version THAT WORKS ON MY PHONE.
I don't need footprints.
The issues I had before that might have been fixed in later versions are:
Weather app crashed EVERY TIME you opened it
Opera browser would NOT save the home page
Thanks guys.
BTW... this software f*ing rocks. You guys at XDA and whoever else is working on mods for it are doing an awesome job!
Hi !
1)
First you need you HardSPL your Phone...
Read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355730
And search further on to get Version Hard-1.22.
2)
Afterwards, you need to Flash an Original WWE Rom like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=373452
You NEED to flash this in order to get the newest roms working right !
Maybe, you need to do the HardSPL again after that.
3) Radio
Head here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369502
And get Radio 1.71.x or 1.6x...
4)Custom Rom
Finally, you can flash anything you want, i really like gullums rom as it is fast and stable:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472343
5) Android
If you want to try it, have a look to the Android Thread - And give it a try:

Greets !
CHEESE N RICE!!!!!!
I dont remember it being that difficult last time!
But now that you mention it my Nike has been rather hot... (radio update not done)
I will religiously follow the steps provided and let you know the outcome.
Thanks for the help.
When I'm running thr RUU.exe I keep getting Error 262....
what am i doing wrong?
I have just bought htc touch hd with dansih OS rom. the phone is locked to danish 3g (www.3.dk).
#1. Any thing I need to take care to flash a new OS on a locked phone?
#2. Do I need to find&save the configuration for 3g setup thus after I
flash to english OS, I will still be able to call&surf?
#3. How could I backup the complete ROM thus when something goes wrong
I could revert to original ROM and retrun the phone?
I tried to find the answer int he forum, but failed. Thanks in advance for your answer.
Now I started to get some answer to my own question:
#1. I will need to have SSPL or HSPL to flash my rom to another language
I prefer to SSPL.
#2. The phone will still be locked to 3.com after flashing which I don't care
Still questions:
#1. Any setup related to 3.com for internet surfing?
#2. How I could backup original ROM and revert to the original ROM?
I am living in DK and got the same phone from 3.
Used USPL when flashing, and no problems at all.
The phone will automatically get 3;s settings from the network.
The original Danish rom is available in the rom development forum in one of the stickies
Thank you for the answer. I will try to flash it then.
Just a piece of advice - MUST read wiki pages regarding flashing ROMS. This will enable you to flash the device with confidence and will prevent any possibility of DAMAGE you may cause during flashing.
Credit to those pages goes to respective authors.
Thank you. I have just successfully flashed HD to the latest english version
with the advice from wiki and you.
Everything works fine.
Got another couple of questions:
#1. What is the difference of "fully power off" from "soft reset"
#2. GPS and AGPS. How does GPS work in HD?
Is that possible to turn it on/off manually to save power if navigation is not needed.
#3. Do you have any recommendation of a cooked ROM? My taste is to have a lite version. e.g.: I don't really need google maps which I could install at any time when needed.
Thanks.
Hi guys!
I bought Touch HD while ago and now it seems to be broken. Problem is that it turns off randomly and don't wake up until you keep the battery off about half an hour. There is wm6.5 and hspl inside and I've tested mtty and different rom which didn't help at all. So the question is where I can get original spl and rom because I don't have them and of course without them warranty is gone. Cheers!
I'm not sure what stock ROM version you originally had, but see this link
Note: you can also download a ROM image from HTC's website in the support section.
Please refer to the following link for more information and the necessary files you will require to re-flash back to Stock (see and read the last section of post #1):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431217
Regards.
p.s. also remember to flash back to the original Radio version of the phone, if required.
Ok, so i had an optimus one, but this is completley different so please help...or point me to some help pages and stuff
I bought an HTC DESIRE HD , as i notice is rooted, it has RCMixHD 6.0.0.1(android 2.3.3 Sense 2.1) ,
kernel V2.6.35.10 - [email protected] march 29
So :
What do i need to install a new ROM ?
I read something about some radio vers, what up with that??
And if i find something else to ask, i will write here !
Thanks in advance , sorry for being a noob
reading is fundamental. i researched HTC phones months before i bought one(came from blackberry). after i got my DHD i stumbled across "rooting". so i did months of research before i rooted my phone. i still feel like im a noob because im still learning and finding new things out. my point is...you should do the research and not expect people to feed you the answers you are looking for. im not trying to be a ****. just shedding some enlightenment.
sent from the Penh.
Yep, no one can click a button and make you learn things like that.
Check the how to threads in the subforum "Desire HD Android Development".
Everything you need is there.
Read, read, read.
well i have experience in android , had 3 devices before but htc devices are a little diff . since my device is rooted , just needed some small steps to move around here
OK ! at least please tell me if can safely update RIL ... i have an older vers and how i can install android revolution ROM
THX!
Start here:

See point number 3 (last lines in the first post), to check if you have ClockWorkMod Recovery installed (you probably have). Do it anyway, to update to new version, if it's the case.
You will flash your roms through ClockWorkMod Recovery.
To reach it, shutdown your phone. Then hold the volume down key and press the ON button (top one). You're in bootloader mode. Choose recovery from the menu, using the volume keys and the On/Off button to confirm.
You will boot into ClockWorkMod Recovery. To install a rom, you would already have downloaded the file in the developer's thread and copy the zip file to the root of the sdcard. Don't mess with the zip.
From the ClockWorkMod Recovery menu, choose install zip from card.
To install radios:

thx joooeee !!! so i found out that my phone is ENG s-off ! that is some work not needed to do by me!
About the RIL, you will only need it if the rom has Sense. No Sense roms don't need it.
And you need to match the RIL to the Radio version installed.
ok so despite what you said, i managed to learn some stuff , i updated radio and RIL
and i have the phone for 3 hours
thx jooooe ! you really helped
Nice. You are ready to become a rom flasher addict.
yeaaah ) and the thing is that this phone has a loooooooooooot of roms ) boston and LG optimus one had few ...and those few are buggy
L.E - flashed 1st ROM ) i haaaaaaaa
As stated everything you need to know is already posted in the forums. Calling your self a noob doesn't excuse you not doing your research before opening a new thread. Come on really? No matter the device there are stickies for them all with all the info a new flasher needs to get started.

can you please help i got htc desire hd i would like to update over air the new FIRMWARE 2.3.5 ?
I have rooted my phone with aahk software all I did was just run the program NO custom firmware that's it and it unlocked my phone
can I update over air the firmware 2.3.5 I don't mind if loose the rooting
THANK YOU
OTA updates are dependent upon your network releasing them... so you'll have to wait, or perhaps contact your network to see if you can get an eta out of them. You also might have to get AAHK to 'return you to stock RUU' in order for the OTA to even kick in.
...however, since you've already used AAHK anyway, you have the option of flashing your '2.3.5' roms of different flavours, or even the 4.0.x ICS. Though bear in mind that flashing the latter would give you an early development rom that probably won't be as stable nor have the complete set of features as say... some of the more established gingerbread roms.
Were I in your shoes, I'd just flash the custom roms that will suit my individual needs, no rom is better overall... its literally 'horses for courses' in regards to what's currently released.
Just do your homework and read as much as you can in regards to the rom you want to choose, as well as the RADIO/RIL/Kernel you want to pair it up with.
The 'search' tool here in the forum is quite good for doing this, and the stickies... though not updated frequently, does have the important threads still linked.
Good luck and happy hunting. ^_~

Downloading an OTA can mess up your phone since you have rooted, so technically its S-OFF. In theory you could download the OTA and it MAY appear as available but hearing mixed replies on similar topics, the results vary from returning the phone to stock to seriously messing with it.
I'd do what the man above me suggested, browse through the dev section and stickies, use search and read as much as you can about custom ROM's. Some are seriously amazing and will give you more then any custom ROM can offer.
Good luck.
thanks
thank you guys for your advice
where can I get custom files for HTC desire HD t-mobile UK
also if anyone know how can I fix my GPS it takes long before I can get signal
that's why I wanted to upgrade the firmware IF I CAN FIX THE GPS I DON'T MIND STAYING ROOTED PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
...you're supposed to do the research yourself.
However, since I'm in an ok mood, here are links to the roms you might want to flash.
BTW, assuming you ran the Advance Ace Hack Kit successfully, you're phone is now technically SIM unlocked... meaning you don't have to get 'custom files for HTC desire HD t-mobile UK' ...so all the ROMS i've linked below will work on your phone.
Note - General direction on how to flash these ROMS/RADIO/RIL/KERNEL:
download the ZIP to your SD
reboot your phone to recovery by shutting down, once its completely shutdown... press and hold vol-down and power, then choose RECOVERY on bootloader menu
choose 'install from SDCard'...
find the ZIP file of the rom and let it to its thing.
However, PLEASE READ the thread's first couple of post, and consult the support threads which the ROM links to in order to get a more detailed info on installing and confirguring the rom
Sense 3.5 ROMS:
RCMix3D 4.0 Runny
EREBUS XL3.5
Virtuous Affinity 1.48.0
Sense 3.0 ROMS:
Android Revolution HD 6.3.1
Beatmod FlyerDOM V2.0
RADIO & RIL thread
(YOU MUST FLASH THE RECOMMENDED RADIO FOR YOUR ROM, or at least the recommended one on the 1st post of the radio thread.
YOU MUST ALSO FLASH THE MATCHING RIL TO THE RADIO IF YOU'RE USING A SENSE ROM!
Kernels (flash the one that 'feels' ok in regards to your phone performance):
LORDMOD (latest is V5.0)
KLquicksall RCMix3D (Latest is V12, but most stable is V11.1v2)
...there'd be more, so search the forums for them... the above is the most popular ones.
For everything else, please consult this thread... or perhaps use the SEARCH function of the forum.
...I think that's enough spoonfeeding from me... =P

Hi Basehumax, here's a fix for ur GPS:

I'm in the Uk myself and can confirm it worked for me. I'll get a fix in 5-10 secs outside and 10-15 inside. If that doesn't work there's also this fix, but it's a hardware job and will take some phone dismantling:
