[Q] htc desire z rom ported to g2? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am not usually an expert on porting ROM's and stuff but i was wondering if you can port the HTC Desire Z rom over to the tomobile version the G2?
The desire z actually has couple of different features that i would like the maps that are already stored on the phone.
If it its possible please do let me know
Thanks.

Once you are rooted and s-off using the guides in the Development forum, you can use any ROM you desire

[Q] Htc Desire Z Roms vs. Tmobile G2 roms

Hi guys, I'm hoping i'm posting this in the right section.
I was just wondering if the HTC desire Z off the bell store in canada is compatible with G2 roms (after rooting it of course)... I was also wondering if the rooting methods are also the same.
Please and Thank you
P.s: I'm assuming the radios are interchangeable as well... ?
I'm sure the original G2 ROM's won't work on the DZ, but I'm not entirely sure... custom ROMs are compatible with both devices though
Although I think the stock ROM will work (someone posted up yesterday after flashing G2 stock on their DZ), you're probably best sticking to the custom ROMs.
Yes, the radios are interchangeable.

[Q] ex milestone, new Desire z - first steps to custom ROMS?

Hi fellow droid users,
I'm new to the HTC desire z world, coming from using a Milestone! Just curious what the first steps are to get myself up and running a custom ROM asap.
I did some peeking in threads, and as usual, the jargon is insane. Not sure which apps I need to correctly root / install custom ROMs?
For the Milestone, I had to flash custom .sbf files with RSDLite... what are my first steps for the Desire Z?
Also, will ROMS for the vision / G2 all be compatible?
pardon my n00bness and thanks in advance,

try that...
and you can flash g2 and desire z custom roms
This is where I started....................

I know I used to be new to rooting and stuff but back then I know how to use search function and read some obvious thread especially this one.
So, I would suggest you to read more about rooting your desire here:

Where can I find the Desire S GSM ROM for the Desire GSM?

Unbranded/Unlocked/Stock/Rooted HTC Desire GSM with Froyo
That's all really.
I don't want to move away from HTC Sense (even though I hear Cyanogenmod is very good) but would like the latest version of HTC Sense and Gingerbread. A few questions please:
1. Where can I find the Desire S GSM ROM for the Desire GSM? With installation instructions. I've already rooted.
2. I take it this is the best HTC Sense ROM to install? HTC Sense 3 (HTC Sensation) looks to be in it's infancy.
3. Will this ROM allow me to remove some of the preinstalled bloatware so I can install more apps?
Reasons for wanting to upgrade:
1. Increase storage, so I can install more apps. I'm always running out of storage.
2. Increase battery life.
3. Latest HTC Sense + Android.
Thanks
I should add:
1. I've tried searching but it drew a blank. All I could find was stock Desire S ROMs. I don't have a Desire S, so am guessing these won't work on my Desire.
2. I've never installed an Android ROM before, please bare that in mind when replying but have rooted my HTC Desire without trouble and also years ago installed TomTom on a cheap Chinese (Windows CE) satnav, again without much trouble.
Thanks.
p.s. - Apologises for posting this in two forums, it's not exactly clear which is the correct forum. Please delete whichever thread is in the wrong place.
There isn't a decent Desire S ROM available, better looking at a Desire HD one (or my normal Desire 2.3.3 ROM )
Well you are right when thinking you can't use the desire s roms, as they need to be fitted to the hardware.
And if you want more space, i will suggest you stay on stock desire rom, as desire s roms fills quite a bit more. You should start looking at some a2sd scripts instead(those are also used to make desire s rom fit into desire).
If you want the new sense and gingerbread, we have a forum just for roms(development) in there you will find 1 thread for every rom. The one you will be searching for is "rcmix s" and yes as eddyos states try to go with desire hd instead.

Thanks for this Eddy. Can you point me to the link or what to search for?
It looks like you're running an HTC Desire HD ROM with Gingerbread. I'm pretty sure the Desire HD officially still runs Froyo. Cool.

Thanks for this Mortenmhp. I'll have a look, instead of muddying the water in this thread.

Got it thanks. It sounds like I want the Desire HD ROM instead. Does that have the same version of HTC Sense as the Desire S? I thought it was newer again, no?
I'm not running a DHD ROM - I'm using an original Desire 2.3.3 ROM
Look for SuperDuperAwesomeROM in ROM Development if you wanna look

Funnily enough I've just been looking at that thread. If I was to flash a new ROM, I'd definitely want the newer HTC Sense and Gingerbread. Any idea where I can find the ROM for this (I'm guessing Desire HD)?
Cheers

[Q] How to get back to stock from ICS

I have used ICS custom rom on my Desire z, but now I am selling my phone and new owner wants stock rom. So how can I unroot, S-ON and get stock 2.3 rom to my Desire z? Is there any easy guides? I found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1442988
Will it work? There is said that "This will work for Vision, Ace and Glacier devices.", so will it work on my european Desire z?
Please help me ASAP, new owner is waiting hes Desire z.
Yes that guide will work, I used it myself just under a month ago to return it to HTC for replacement, worked perfectly.
