Hi,
I hv not rooted my desire HD yet and not aware of how to. Can someone guide me with a step to step process of doing it?
Is it advisable to root?
Will that hamper my phone?
As currently the battery life sucks in DHD, will it improve the battery life ?
And How do I get stable icecream sandwich with sense UI 3.5 ??

There are plenty of guides on how to do this, use the search function.
Yes.
No.
It can do.
you can't.
Thanks for the reply.
If not stable, how good is the ICS that's ported into DHD... as I was going through the forum found one . Should I wait for the rooted version from someone else ?? Will that b available with sense UI 3.5...?

I think the thread you refer to was started last week, and has about 90 pages already. It does say "devs only" or something similar.
If you read through it, you'll see if it meets your needs. It sounds highly experimental to me though.
Again, depends what you want. If it's ICS at any cost, well there you are. If you want more stability, go for a Gingerbread ROM like Leedroid/Revolution, the latest versions of which have updated Sense.
If you just want the ICS eye candy, you can make it look like ICS via a launcher.
All the same, read through the guides for preparing your phone for flashing a ROM. It sounds complicated at first, but it's actually very easy, just follow the guides.
You should wait, the devs are trying to make it work maybe next week or in 2 weeks we might have a version already but if not you can wait for cm9 which is coming in December/January as for the sense question it will come with sense 4.0 when htc releases it I guess

Try the link for rooting your DHD worked very well for me ,you wont regret rooting your phone it unlocks so many options to modify your setup you will wonder how you ever lived with a standard handset
Warning though it gets very addictive

Rooting voids your warranty. Just thought that this should be pointed out to you. Happy rooting
Hi
I am new to rooting to my phone and would like to know if any roms that supports traditional Chinese and Korean?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I guess that the MIUI ROMS support that...considering they are made by devs who are originated in china and all.
You can find the version for our phone in their site here
Hope it helps.
Edit: I don't know if it supports korean. Also MIUI is fairly heavy on the phone. If I find myself some time and no-one has already replied, I might be able to look it up.
Thanks for the reply, is there a leedroid Rom for the HTC Desire Z?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I'm not aware of Leedroid for Desire Z. However, if you do not require a chinese UI, only the ability to read and write Chinese, then any ROM will have this ability.
For input you may need to supplement it with the likes of multilang keyboard for chinese input, if you choose to go with a non-sense RoM. Many sense ROMs will have the HTC chinese input method intact.
If you are a Mandarin speaker I'd suggest Google PinYin method anyways since its one of the best, and supports both tradition and simplified chinese.

MIUI has been made by japanese third-party devs. also i like RCMIX3D 4.0 ROM. and i thought that it also supports chinese and japanese.android 2.3.5 sense 3.5 download: http://uploading.com/files/7c69c9c7/RCMix3D_v4.0.zip/
I am in favor of the MIUI..great interface, stable and great performance.
Just regarding about overclocking the processor, would some of the time include the application to do this? I don't really need the Chinese input. I would maybe go and try out a few different roms as I have just downgraded to 2.2 and rooted the phone.

You might try Andromadus if you're looking for bleeding edge. So far, its the smoothest and most capable ice cream sandwich build available. You can find it under the desire z/g2 rom development section, and I'll edit this post to include a link later. Or if you prefer a more stable, established rom try CyanogenMod 7.1 from CyanogenMod.com. both will support Chinese among other default languages, and are both far more capable than the stock sense rom and both include OC as well. Hope this helps..

Hi all,
I'm back and would like your input on good roms. I have been using Virtuous Quattro RC3 for sometime but I just don't like how the graphical glitches make me have to reboot my phone several times a day. I would like to use an ics rom.

I would HIGHLY recommend Ice Cold Sandwich, the homescreen is actually smooth and seems to be running at 60 FPS. It also has HEAPS of tweaks because it's based on AOKP. Give it a shot if you really want ICS.
Well, if u know chinese, u can go to the bbs.gfan.com to have to look at their rom. Although most of them are originally from xda, they may give u some different experience. U should check it out

Unless youre sold on the UI of ICS id give one of the Sense 4 roms a spin (taz's for example) theyre actually stupidly stable and smooth!

I would definitely try the MIUI roms. They're great!
I think Sense 4.0 is a disappointment. Tried it on my Desire Z and it's not what I expected. The stock Android is much faster and better.
The MIUI ROM's absolutely don't work for me... Found them very laggy, but it does have some great functionalities.
I just use JIBwich, a stock Android ROM as it is on the Galaxy Nexus.

I would very strongly recomend the ILWT CM7 build (available under the development section). You will never want to move away. Atleast that has been the case with me, after trying sense and miui, I found home with this one.
Its fast, issue free, pretty optimized (although got further optimization you can use v6, akmo or rmp) and is pretty frequently updated (generally on every major CM build).
Been using it for almost a few months and can't even think of moving, not to any ICS either (personally, don't like the virtual keys always on screen on the ICS).
Hope it helps - cheers!

You can try Andromadus Audacity! Very fast and stable for a beta! You can find this rom on android development thread of this section

I flashed to that rom. I really miss how the the suggestions for the keyboard in ics. Im glad to back on a fully functional on-screen keyboard that doesn't lag. I was using the unofficial cyanogen mod 9. It had issues here and there. I kind of miss ics for its looks.

Hello,
Just pre ordered today! Are you going to run a ROM? If so which ROM suits best for this device. Just curious.
none of them, because you have to read the instructions and the rest of the posts in each thread to be sure you want to install it. =]
definitely stay on HTC factory, but check for updates in the settings.

Why don't you stay with the stock ROM and just root it?I have a stock 1.28 on it and root and that is more than enough for me.If you want a custom ROM i recommend the ARHD (Android Revolution HD).

Agreed. It's close to stock but with some great tweaks and optional mods. Not to mention support from a skilled developer.

Im using InsertCoin and loving it. But am considering going to ArHD
HTC 1 X
I believe that using the standard ROM is the way to go, just unlock the bootloader and root your phone and that is all that is needed really. I used to change the Rom on my HD2 all the time and also ran ICS but this phone runs smoother on the stock rom.
leedroid
Leedroid v.4.0 awesome!
Thanks for the feedback!
I think I want to give ARHD a try.
The best ROM is whichever one you want.
Heard that arhd has better battery life with more than 6hr on screen time.

No one is getting 6 hours of on screen time with this phone, I don't think. I see some people get 4 or so, but they can't be doing much with the phones then. Also, that's probably with real low brightness.
what are the chances of it getting bricked?
Yea the one best for me won't be the best for u..
I tried insertcoin, leedroid, JDroid, but didn't convince me..
Right now I'm on VillainRom and to me it's the best..
Keep tryin and eventually u'l find out what works for u..
Don't go by the number of views/ comments..

I get more than 5 hours of on screen time with low brightness.
Won't we get more on screen time on custom Rom as most of the software were tweaked and removed for better performance which will eventually increase battery life.

Hi guys,
After a long day and a full ash tray, I've my wildfire s rooted, I've got some experience with what is going around but I'm so much enthusiastic to try new roms (I'm still on my 2.3.5 stock) or even customize my sense with some MODs (I'd love to remove that bottom bar that has "phone" and "apps"...may be edit how many pages in the home screens).
I'd be more than happy to know your thoughts...
last question, how can I know from the rom name that it supports arabic for example ? are there any nomenclature rules unified ?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using XDA
So you're looking for ROM recommendations?
It all depends on what you like. I'm not very much a sense liker - I find it too cluttered, slow, and I feel as if I'm fighting with the UI just to get simple tasks done. I use CyanogenMod 9, it's got some awesome features and deep customisation features.
What I'd recommend is that you take the time to give a sense 3.5, CM9, CM7 and MIUI ROM a 24hr trial run. That should be more than enough time to figure out which ROM you feel is best for you, and what you'd enjoy
Thank you dudeman for the recommendations, you assured my thoughts...
I'm still looking for a way to understand how nomenclature goes

Hi,
today I got the idea of changing my current ROM to one that is 100% stable, runs very smooth and has a good battery life/low resource use.
I was thinking of a modified Froyo rom like Starburst. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=916417 )
I'm not interested in any extra functionality besides phone-music player. I just need it to do those two things perfectly and to never choke, freeze. (for example my current ROM has frequent freezes of the music app during playback).
What do you think?
Thanks for your time
CyanogenMod7 or MildWild Oxygen, both small, smooth, stable, u wont have any problems. Ul find them both in Desire Android Development. If some1 recommends JB/ICS then just ignore them haha

I think I found CM7 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957344) and I know MildWild and I am using it now. I would like to change it. Overall it's smooth but the music player glitches are getting to me, since I use that several times a day.
CM7 seems incomplete by the looks of some comments. I would like something final.
That being said, thank you for suggesting those two.
You wont find anything more complete than CM7, lol.
Where did you found those "comments" ?
Redux. I think v 2 was the best. Development has long since stopped but it was the most stripped down, battery friendly when I had my desire.

Before i was using that, I was using MIUI-XJ which is nice but not that lightweight.
Currently I am trying out Jelly Bean but wi-fi doesn't work for me so I'll probably return to MokeeOS
