Hi,
when i connect my XDA with the USB Cable, it turns itself off.
Ordered a new battery, cause i think thats the problem.
But if not i have to send my XDA to O2, so that they can fix it.
For that reason i want to reflash original O2 Rom.
I think i remeber somthing about flashing a ROM via SD-Card, so you don't have to connect a USB Cable.
I used the Forum-Search, but didn't find a Thread.
Can somebody please help me out?
thx in advance
found it myself ... (-_-)
forgot to Look into the Wiki ... d'oh.

thx mate!
nice to know!
has anyone worked out a way to CID unlock using the SD card so that we can flash any of the custom ROMs found on this site rather than just the official ones?

If you want to flash the original "complete" rom, you don't need CID unlock...
In other cases you must use USPL first, it changes SPL with a modified version, than you can flash all you want
Actually it's not possible write SPL via SD...
is there a step by step video on how to flash a rom from a sd card

You can flash in advance the original rom through SD and later when it works fine you can flash through USB cable...

Dear Expers of Hero my Hero has Asia rom 728 which is don't have market icon installed.
I have 2 quesions.
1st should I install market apk and keep this rom?
2nd is there any way to flash another original no touched rom WWE from this forum download section let say RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.66_WWE_test_signed_NoDriver to this one as I tried with flasher it came it gaves error when chegking signature.
Please explain me if there is good way to do that to change WWE version and keep coming later updates on that version.
Thanks in advance
Google phones in certain areas of the world, mainly asia etc Do not have google apps installed.
Not sure why but it is the fact of the matter.
As far as I know the best thing you can do is install a custom rom with market included.
It doesn't matter what rom you install as you can always install a proper rom back anyway, and all official roms with do a full wipe of your phone.
So you can take the dive and go for any custom rom you want, it maeks no difference and will give you better perfomance (usually) and google apps.

In reply to the above
You can get a custom rom the same version as you already have installed, unzip the img file using 7zip etc on your computer and copy the vendor.apk file to your memory card and install it using Astro file manager and see if that will does the trick and also you could install market enabler.

I meant modified only to the extent it has been made into a .zip that you can flash. Not that it has been changed.

Yes, but you need to create a Goldcard to bypass the CID checks.

Ok can you give me link to tutorial where it shows how to make goldcard and what to do after that because now my phone have RA recovery and I can flash every rom from my card. I need to use RUU flasher and not get error in midddle thanks
One more question if I make goldcard and then use RUU flasher and flash my Malaysian 728 rom Hero with WWE rom let say 2.73.466 so after that my phone will be WWE region and I can flash back to this 466 rom as now I can to my 728 or any time I need to use GOLDCARD?

hey i want to flash stock 2.1 on my htc desire because i am on orange and they dont get updates quick. if i do this will this wipe memory ? tbh am not bothered
you need to root your desire to debrand.
What do you mean wipe the memory, which memory do you mean?
if i root and get the stock rom can i still get htc updates ?
wipe the internal memory
If you wipe the internal memory you wipe it, so unless you have done a backup you will not be able to get it back. I would assume the Branded rom still has the auto backup to sd which you could enable. This will backup some settings but your apps etc will be lost.
If you flash with stock rom yes you can get updates (if there are any) but even if you cant someone on xda will release the updates, if you use the stock rom your phone is the same as stock except for cosmetic differences
Okay thanks for your help I am usin the auto backup but what will that backup? And can you direct me on how to root on Orange and how to install the stock Rom ?

You do not need to root to debrand - you just need a goldcard to bypass CID checking so you can install a generic RUU.

Dave
thanks dave can you show me were i can do all them things please and also why do i need a gold card ?
You need a goldcard to force your Orange branded phone to accept a non-Orange ROM. Instructions on how to create one are given here.
Other than that, you need to download an HTC RUU file (from here, the second WWE RUU is the one you want) and follow the instructions - it is a Windows executable.
Regards,
Dave
thanks for this now which one do i downlod fromm these ?
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122704.exe
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.
06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe
The second one is the later one.
Regards,
Dave
Thanks dave after i make the gold card i put in to the phone right?
then if i want to debrand the the phone shud i opend the RUU file that i downloaded and follow instructions on there or shud i flash it on the phone?
am sorry am new to all of this
Correct on both accounts. However, if you have problems with the RUU process, you should be able to extract the rom.zip from it and flash it manually if needs be.
Regards,
Dave
okay if i do it on the computer and follow instruction do i need the phone in reovery or not ? If i do debrand will this errase all my apps and also contacts,sms etc..
if it does i have the auto backup what will that backup ?
Don't use the 2nd one unless you have bought an unlock code or have a generic desire that's not branded. Orange lock certain radios.

thanks i havent got a spare sd card but if i copy the 4gb card on the computer then format it on the phone and make it into a goldcard then if i foramt the gold card after i have flashed the rom can i copy back everything back to the sd card ?
I have rooted my Desire successfully yet I can't switch ROMs. What I want to do is change the stock ROM from Asia to Europe. I keep getting Error 131. Any suggestions?
I already tried wiping everthing including Dalvik
Sounds like you are trying to change to an official rom?
If so, you need to use a gold card.

You are correct
OK so gold card is the only method, even if rooted otherwise?
(I used unrevoked)
I guess I could just put a custom ROM as they seem to work.
You need a goldcard to flash an official ROM, you can flash any rooted ROMs without the goldcard.
Thanks all!

You don't need root for that. All you need is a Goldcard to switch between Official ROMs.
EDIT: oops, too late to answer..
Or install this ROM
http://android.modaco.com/content/h...ustom-rom-for-htc-desire-with-online-kitchen/
its based on an official WWE ROM and has the best features/performance around i think.
Done. Borrowed my mom's unbranded 1Gb sdcard and it worked fine. Gold card worked on the second try. Now I'm on stock wwe latest version. Again thanks to all

Does it not tell you how to do that in the rooting guide?
Which rooting guide you referring to mate the one u read told you how to backup the apps but not the original rom
before you install a new rom you'll want to flash a custom recovery image anyway, which supports backing up the whole system. Make sure to go through this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696189 before you do it, or just use unrevoked^3, which does it automatically.

oh i think yes...but make a copy of the sd card after you backup your rom...if you make a ext3 partition for app2sd your sdcard will be formated
Also you can download a stock rom which will replace all....(tested with my o2 original rom)

Hi guys
I installed a few custom roms into my dhd in the last few days. I had to downgrade to the 1.3X version of stock rom to do this. I got tips from the xda post.
After this whenever i go to bootloader, i see that the
bootloader is searching for the ruu rom. If i put the ruu zip file in sd card, it will try to do an install. Is there something wrong with my bootloader? Please advice.
I also want to try and restore the phone to the stock condition. (No gripes with custom roms. Just want to give this a try) Will an ruu flash the old recovery back in? Or should i do this seperately? And what about the radio? Will it come with ruu?
I use a goldcard now. Will it void my warranty if i dont remove it? I dont have ruu roms specific to india with me.
Please help me out. Searched the forum but :-(

1-maybe not, only that u need to re-name the file to "update.zip" or pd98img.zip..
depending that you want to do..
2-yes, an original ruu flashes the originalk recovery...(u can´t do anything in this recovery...)
3-radio not comming with the RUU or with a custom rom... you should to flash it apart... via fastboot or with a tool..
4-goldcard don´t removes your warranty... its maded into the sd card- remove it or format... and gold card dissapears
5-If u don´t found An official RUU for your country... always can enjoy the WEE ruu (generic) without problems...
Thanks Sergi.
But why is the bootloader searching for the zip? I think the downgrade process caused this issue.
Or will all bootloaders search for the zip?
How did you get the name pd98img.zip? My bootloader is indeed searching for this zip file! I never mentioned it in my post
edit:: A few more hours in the forum gives me the impression that all bootloaders will search for this file. Am I right?
Also the RUU has a radio in the name of the file. Should I flash this radio seperately using fastboot?
I see a link to RUU PD98IMG_Ace_hTC_Asia_India_1.84.720.3_Radio_12.28g .60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3_release_175158_signed.zip. Why is the radio name in the file? Will it have the radio inside or should I flash the same radio separately?
I installed RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.3_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.15_M3_release_155032_signed and you know what. Even the radio got changed!!!

AAAH ok ok you tried an .exe pack... I forgot to tell you that this is the exception.. sorry... This RUU'S goes with his own recommended radio... Are the original htc roms pure..

And yes.. bootloader always search pd98img...but then shows you the menu true??its normal.. this file can reflaah your phone if anything goes badly...
sent from my amstrad CPC powered by LOL..(premium xda)
Yes all set!!
what I did was to flash with a 1.32(non indian) version first, temp root it, then remove the radio S OFF.
Then I flashed it with the 1.84 indian version, and all set!!
Thank you!!
One more question, will the RUU exe flash the kernel as well?
Another question too.. Will multiple flashing and reflashing harm the phone in anyways?
