Modifying the extended ROM - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

The question is in the title...how can i do it plz ?

You have to take a brick and throw it three times on your device. Afterwards, you have to put the device for one day in a coup of coffee.....
Maybe you should specificy about which device you are talking, btw. search here in the forum, btw. post your question in the forum for your device....

Original OS of the Diamond

Hello everyone,
I hope I posted my first question here in the right area (if not, shame on me )
In the next few days my HTC Touch Diamond will arrive from Vodafone. I do not know if this is just in Germany but my last phone from Vodafone, a Sony Ericsson W810i, also had a "special" Vodafone-OS on it. On the W810i I was finally able to look up all the necessary information myself to make it a Vodafone-free phone. But as I read through all the available Wiki's, FAQs and other threads I am starting to see that this might be another level compared to what I have done before.
My questions concerning my new device are whether there is a possibility to change the "Vodafone-red-theme" to the original one which you also can see on HTC's homepage. Of course, the whole device should be in its original form, not just the theme, whereas the Vodafone-Services (SMS-Gateway and all the other service numbers which are needed to use the device). I think it is possible, maybe it has something to do with a "ROM-Upgrade" or so, as I have seen in a FAQ around here.
My other question is, of course, how to do that, what tools are needed etc.
In short, I need you to provide me the right link to a tutorial since here are so many and I do not know which one to take (and I do not want to screw up the device).
I hope that you can help me, if I accidentally posted this thread in the wrong forums might a moderator please be so kind to move it to the right section and notify me of my fault.
Thanks in advance and greetings from Germany (or Bavaria, to be more exact )

We'll let you off!
Yes, you are in the wrong section... you should be in the 'Diamond ROM development' section, but everyone is allowed one mistake (Except, myself... I have infinite mistake allowance!)
My device was vodafone branded when I got it, and that's the first thing I wanted to get rid of too.
First you need to 'Hard SPL', which unlocks the device so you can flash any ROM you wish. Then just flash your required ROM. I would highly recommend AZTOR's X2 Ultimate. He has the philosophy of keeping the ROM as close to the original stock ROM as possible, only better, stronger, faster... like the bionic man (I'm showing my age now!!).
Everything you need is in this tutorial. I followed it to the letter, and now my device is everything it should be. It's always very nerve racking the first time you flash your device, but what ever happens, there's some sharp wizard in this forum with the knowledge to get you out of the brown stuff... have fun
Hi grahamkdt,
thanks for you reply. I already thought after submitting that it would have been better to post this in the development area. I will contact a Mod immediately to solve that.
Thank you for the recommendation about the ROM, but there is still one problem for me:
Should I upgrade the "Radio" first, since in the tutorial you gave to me it is step B. Or is this just a prerequisite to not breaking anything? Are there also different versions?
Regards,
Zuzler
thread moved
now we are all happy
Wow thanks, I also contacted tnyynt for that
Can't remember...

I can't remember if AZTOR's ROM's include the radio. It might be worth flashing a radio first from here. I use Radio v1.09.25.23 (Quad Band) (52.51.25.26H) - no issues at all.
Or, you could ask AZTOR if radio is included in his ROM's if you're really concerned. Personally I'd just flash one first anyway...
Ok, I will ask him personally (just seen hes from Germany, too - might make some things easier)
Thanks again!

Flash a stock rom and read carefully the STICKY in the first thread of this page/forum. You will find your answer, you only need some time for reading.

When a forum member requests help to "resucitate" his phone the nice thing to do is what you did: send the user DIRECTLY to where help is.
And before any moderator jumps to tell me about forum rules: YES, I have read them.
If someone comes asking for a better looking icon or some other cosmetical stuff, and you know a search will quickly yield a million answers by all means send user to search.

I'm not talking on behalf of the mods and can only state my opinion with regards to threads and posting, if 100's of people do not read the STICKY and just post the same question what do they learn apart from that a post will be answered by someone, so no self gratification & no learning involved, over the last year or so many of us on the Excailbur forum have put things together so as to stop the situation mentioned above.
But i also do understand how a link is the appropriate action or @ least a point in the right direction
Mods are human and we don't jump to tell people to read the rules "that is said in comedy"

Helo my friend, can you try this??
With the Excalibur turned off (remove the batery for 5 seconds to restart the device settings and remove the SD card), hold the camera button and press the on/off (hust press, not hold like ou do to turn the device on or off)...
If it works, the screen will turn a colored screen, in that, plug the Excalibur on your PC, a message will appear on the back of scree show "usb' and te sound of ActiveSync will be hearead, but ActiveSync will not be started...
With a stock Rom (Shiped HTC Rom), make the flash of device...
If everything goes ok, your device is now an stock one, and you can make the flash of Kavana's Rom following the instructions (SDA unlock is very very important to a flash go well, pay attention in this).
If you don't have a stock Rom, this link could help you with this issue, lookfor your device rom in there and made it well

Put on your reading glasses and start reading this forum!
Use the excellent search function in here, and i'm sure you'll figure it out, just like we all had to at some point.
Solidpowder gave you some good links to start, this one might also be usefull:

Sorry, not meaning to be rude, but if you really want to solve your devices problem you really have to educate yourself, no one else can do that for you.

Welcome to xda-developers, solaabdul.
First of all, why all those caps? It's perfectly readable in normal letters.
Secondly, everyone wants a "flashing for dummies guide" and a personal trainer to get the latest roms on their device. The trick is, finding those guides by using the "search" function, on top of this forum.
You can use the advice given by Raving_nanza to get your device updated.
Good luck in finding the right rom for your device.

So, on these forums, people are doing voluntary/non-profit work to post their findings and write tutorials to help others. That's ok, it's their choice.
This forum came equipped with a search engine that helps you find information based on what you want. It's great, thank the webmaster for that.
If this forum doesn't have the information that you are looking for you can request it in a nice way, well written, etc. That again, is okay and acceptable.
YOU! You, skipping all those steps and making a brand new thread... just because you can, filling this board up with junk... not even trying to use search or just browse page by page the specific sections... Are simply scum... You think people here should write a tutorial just for you to understand, losing their time for free?
How are mods keeping these threads up? No, really... is it that mods need to respond only to tickets and reports?
Theo said it correctly, I will say it simply .......Search......... really search, then if what you are asking you find no existing threads of help (which is a 1% chance) Then ask, not before
Thread is going nowhere, as such, this THREAD IS CLOSED
