Hi there,
I was just wondering how to install a Froyo Rom (With A2SD Support, and 2.1 Android Version). I was wondering about this because they're saying something about "Radio Versions" and I have absolutely no idea what that means. Is it to connect to your mobile carrier? Mine's Virgin Mobile Canada, does it make a difference? I really need to know, because I can't take my chances with this phone. How do I know what radio versions I need for the Rom? Do I install it like a normal Rom? I also want one that has root access. Does that make a difference? Thanks for the help because I'm really confused at the moment. Thanks.
PS: I've searched everywhere for a 2.1 Froyo Rom but still can't find one, can someone please give me the link? The reason I don't want 2.2 is because the last time I used a 2.2 Froyo Rom I couldn't get reception to my carrier (Virgin Mobile), and I know I did something wrong, so I'm asking for advice now. Thanks.

Hi, firstly, please read as much as you can before posting
Now, the reason you can't find 2.1 Froyo is because there is no such ROM. Froyo is a codename for Android 2.2 ROMs, just as 2.1 ROMs have codename Eclair etc...
So if you want Froyo, you want 2.2.
As I have told you in the other thread, read stickies in Development. To get root access, you have to root first - not sure if you have done that, but anyway, read some howtos on rooting any other techniques and you will find out how to fllash a ROM.
Abot the Bell canada thing, I think you are on WCDMA there,which means you have to have a Radio for that - that's what the fuzz is about(about different versions of radios and their receptions). But I'm not sure if you even need a special radio, you'll have to find out in development.
Here are STICKIES
Good luck!

what i want to do is update to windows mobile 6.1,i am not really concerned

i have read the faq and have been searching the site for 3 days and i cannot yet understand which rom i am supposed to download.so many different roms to choose from.
i can find no telus specific rom or program to flash my phone.
if anyone would like to point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Best rom/radio combo for p4000 telus
hi
i have the 2.40 bootloader on the phone and i have flashed to the original telus software.
what i would like to know from a p4000 user is what is the best radio/rom version to use on my phone.
there are so many versions and none seem to be specifically for telus phones.
can you just pick the newest radio version and rom and flash away?
thanks from a noob
Yes i use radio 3.42.40 and then pick whichever rom you like best
Hi, I want to put my Semse 2.5 of TP2. Can you give me a link to download instructions on how to put it that something I own. Thanks!
Only way to install Sense 2.5 is to flash a ROM which contains it. Its too integrated with the OS to be able to install after the fact.
The website of htc.com in the last ROM that has a Sense wrote it? But I can not download it from there ...
Try here:
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows%20mobile&model=Rhodium
Thanks for the link, downloaded him. I have another question, is not this an official ROM, Can you upload it without making Hard-SPL. I do not want to do it again, I had problems with it. I just want to do frequently updated to the latest version of the site ... Can you?
You will only be able to flash the "official" ROM allowed by your carrier. Or the official HTC unbranded ROM if you have the unlocked Euro version.
I saw you relocked the SPL on the other thread. What problem did you have with it?
Just did not want to do a new Hard-SPL. But .. May will have ..
What problem did you have with HardSPL?
As far as I know, there is no reason to ever re-lock SPL, unless you need to return the phone for warranty repair.
If you mention which carrier you use, we would be able to point you to the latest update for it. I think AT&T is the only one to offer an upgrade to Sense 2.5. Everyone else is still on Sense 2.1 (TF3D).

Probably because the new HTC Sense 2.5 ROM suffers from all kind of performance problems? The carriers don't want to make the phone even more slow Only AT&T is stupid enough ;]

Haha, too true! Sense doesn't have to be that slow. They're just too lazy/greedy to make a decent ROM with good compression and without all the bloatware.

that walkthru seems to be what you need, but the rom is a Clockwork Recovery Mod rom that is flashed from the sd card, so you need to flash the CWM after the MGLDR, but before the rom, you also need to find out what rom partition you need for the CWM, sense roms usually use around 400mb, so look in the sticky roll up thread where you found the walkthru and you will see the Clockwork Mod thread, and you'll have to ask in the rom thread what partition you need.
how to get the latest and best sense version of android working on it?
- Seems difficult. At first, you have to know how to make a ROM
How do I know what Radio Version I have?
- In the setting meu, you will find out the radio versio.
Look, you don't have to know how to make a rom, you're not reading what I'm telling you, if you want a rom with the latest sense, find one that you can flash that has it already cooked in it, like the incredible s/vivo port. Just find any sense rom that you like and learn how to flash it, you don't even know how to flash and you're getting concern with rom making! There's a bunch of roms with sense on them but only a few with the sense 2.1, is not like they can just throw it in a rom and that's it, they have to work out the bugs and make it compatible with our hd2.

You can reboot your phone and there are three lines of numbers in the first boot at the bottom of the screen that will look like this example: R.2.08.50.15, or this if an old Europe hd2, R.2.07.51.xx, the radio has to be a 50 on the 3rd section of numbers if US, if US hd2 you cannot flash a 51 radio or YOU WILL BRICK IT, TOTALLY BREAK YOUR PHONE!!!!! you need radio 2.15.50.14 for best performance in android, US or EU.
You can also go into your settings in windows mobile and check your software info and it should give you the rom and radio number.

Hmmm, if you don't reckon the differences between FroYo and GingerBread, it's probably not usefull to change ROM...
AFAIK there are several threads about rooting your Tab
Most ROM's are stable and fast, I personally prefer those made by AF974. Mind you, his latest ROM/kernel isn't supported anymore while he joined the Hyperdroid. You might get lucky there...

sorry but my english....i know the difference between froyo and gingerbread.
And my question was not complete. I´m from argentina and my tab is gsm (with chip) P1000L (or N) i dont remember, lol.
i read a post about cant change rom is the tab are from latinamerica or something.
Can i use the roms from afaik in my tab?
And More questions, worth it the upgrade, really change the tab perfomance
(when i start to use, the roms from Erickwill in my Xperia, the phone speeds up about 500% lol)
I will check other ways to root it, thanks about it.

Hola!
It is definately worth flashing a ROM. I think you are right that there are certain limitations with the P1000L/N - there is lots of information on here so get searching...
Have a look at the Hyperdroid thread, it might work for you, but check with your Tab version first.
Hi guys, I'm pretty much a newbie to this all and was wondering if anyone could help me get my HD2 back to its original settings of being on WM6.5.
I recently upgraded it to 2.2 by NAND ( no idea what that means) but I was successful on getting it up and running on android.
Im now trying to be more adventurous and see if I can boot the rom to 4.4 but just for safe measures, I'd like to know how I can get the system back. Also if anyone can post the links of what Id need to download to get it to 4.4 and how I need to do that from 2.2 would be great. I don't know if I could just upload another android version on top of the 2.2 or if I would have to remove that first.
Thank you in advance

In future search before posting. To flash a higher version of Android (although 4.4 doesn't exist yet and probably never will) check out the guide in my sig. To flash a stock ROM just download one from the HTC website and flash the RUU in the bootloader.
I tried looking for previous posts that would hep, but this stuff is completely going over my head and I am still determined to get my HTC on an upgraded android version. What android version would you recommend? anything more up-to-date than 2.2 would be great (with everything working, I have read posts where some people have had problems with the camera not working)
I have had a look on the HTC website and they no longer support HD2 :-/ How can I restore it? *confused* I'm a complete newbie and a noob, yup both, but I will not be giving up
Further guidance would be great.
I think a JB ROM would be good if you want functionality and the latest version. If you want stability then 2.3 is probably best. The only real solution is to try a few ROMs out and see what you like best.
