my 1.6 version upgrade.android.32teeth.org/?step=1)
start here - http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=HTC_Dream
Yeah, start from there. I did it twice already for my phone, work 100%. I did it once when I flashed CM 6.0 (Froyo 2.2), secondly, when I almost bricked the phone trying to update new bootloader and radio to have working updated Froyo 2.2.1

I was wondering if anyone has been able to get it working on a GSM Hero? I have a telus hero and was wondering if anyone has gotten it to work, and what steps you did.
I would imagine the people who have it running on the G1 are on Android 1.6 whilst we are currently stuck with 1.5. Just a guess though.
Now here, but from v. 1.6. .... http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2009/11/happy-thanksgiving-travels-google-maps.html
meh.
I guess we'll have to wait till HTC releases an update 2.0 rom, someone gets this working on a 1.5 rom, or someone creates a new custom 1.6 rom.
I'm guessing that we'll have to wait till 2.0.
Alright, so I updated my phone with the official 2.1 android update from sprint, then rooted it. I hate 2.1 and my phone runs like complete crap. I even tried to re-flash it after doing a hard reset, that didn't help. I am very new to android phones, but learn fast. I downloaded the initial release ruu from sprint which has android 1.5 but can't simply run that to flash back to a 1.5 rom because it gives some type of error about not being able to update the boot loader or something. I gather that I need to get the original 1.5 rom in .zip form somewhere and then flash that rom using the menu at the phones boot up to get back to a 1.5 rom. Can someone tell me what I need to download, and the steps to do so? Also is there any 1.5 roms that are nearly identical to sprints stock rom but that have tethering enabled? Thanks guys!!

I would like to know this also as 2.1 runs like garbage I think and 1.5 at least worked for me and wasnt so buggy. I am not happy wih 2.1 at all. Also I really want my tethering back.
Pick a 1.5 ROM like Pancake or Gumbo and install it. The list of 1.5 ROMS can be found in the XDA Hero CDMA Wiki
Which Rom is closest to stock? Know where I could find stock 1.5?
Im going to say Gumbo ROM 1.5c FULL but I could be wrong. I am going to wait and see what some more experienced member/s have to say. For now I deal with this rooted 2.1.
You can not go back to 1.5 after running the 2.1 RUU. The hboot in 2.1 has a higher version and you can not downgrade below the version currently on your phone. The only thing to do is install a 1.5 ROM..
Just look in the Wiki, there are several 1.5 ROMs.
Before I went to 2.1 ROM's I used Gumbo 1.5c Bare. FAST as the wind...but there is the FULL version also, that has all the sprint apps.
Both here.....Flash them and see which you like better.

I am currently running Fresh 2.1.1 and it is amazing, everything works and its FAST! You might want to try this one also:

Good luck.
I read that the 2.1 update was released by Rogers but could not find any info if, like their Sense UI update, this would also install the perfect SPL.
Does anyone know if I can safely install their update?
Thanks
Edit:
Also, while I'm at it. If I want to upgrade, is it just a matter of installing the Rogers update or do I have to take additional steps? (I'm currently running CM6 with default radio and SPL).
Anyone at all?
Bump .....
Bump Wow, this type of question used to be answered in minutes .. now it takes weeks
I hear ya man no one ever replys :\
well your on cm6 no way to go back
but if you go to Theunlockr.net and go to android downloads > roms > magic
youll see a rom named RC rom
its based off of rogers 2.1 rom with sense but just added more tweaks
its also updated and ready to download at the developter tread
if we go back to CM6, meaning reverting back from perfect SPL, would the 911 glitch occur again?
I knew I "could" flash my Bell HTC Touch just after I bought it a few years ago. I was happy , after a lot of digging with what the Windows Apps could do.
I finally decided to take the plunge this week because I had to Hard reset due to it freezing up. Seems to be a problem after a while when you have too many programs installed on the SD card.
I'm running Myn’s Warm Donut - [RLS 5 - 04/24/2010]. I grabbed this .nbh
"voguimg-240x320-2.6.32-froyo-14-01-11_14.nbh"
The camera does not work with it and according to this thread "http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-770710.html" it is a known problem with 2.6.32
I have now updated to (downgraded) 2.6.25 , the camera still will not work.
this is the error message for both .nbh versions
"The application Camera (process com.android.camera)
has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Any help would be appreciated , I'm just learning to use Android now but I am capable of following technical steps.

Go there and download one of these - depending on the resolution you want:
voguimg-320x480-01-07-10.nbh
voguimg-320x428-01-07-10.nbh
voguimg-240x320-01-07-10.nbh
Any later ones are for Eclair 2.1 or Froyo 2.2
Since you're running Donut - 7/1/10 nbh should be the latest version you can use.
-------------------
edit: Looks like 7/2/10 is the last NBH you can use
As long as there is no Eclair or Froyo in the build name - it will work for donut.
If you want a great donut build - with everything working - try the one from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728797
Download link still works on mediafire
That was a great version for me - good on memory usage and pretty fast/stable.
If you grab the Hawks SOAD RLS 3 build - use the 7/2/10 NBH files.
That's great , thanks! What version of Android is that? The one I'm using is 1.6. I have read that the HTC touch has had a 2.x ported to it. My only concern is using SkyFire. I LOVED that browser underwindows mobile and the Beta for Android 1.6 does not function any more (If it ever did?) Sites that Skyfire 1.1 had no problem with under Winmo just won't display properly. Like my local radio station site to load the stream.
I changed my htc mp6900sp from sprint to a htc evo shift. I kept the 6900 and I am interested in flashing to android. Thing is that this phone does not como with wifi features but it does have a side slot for memory card. Can it be done? Is there a way to make this phone wifi? I don't need it as a phone just want it for my kids to fool around and lay off of my Evo.
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.
