I was gonna post this in Development, but im a new user
Basically, I recently rooted, and s-off(ed?) my HTC Desire HD, and then proceeded to flash Android Revolution HD Rom to it.
How can I get a custom boot screen? I have an animation and stuff, but apparently I need Eng s-off? How can I get Eng s-off from my custom ROM?
Sorry for my noobishness
Cheers fo any help

i am new to but i think i can help..actualy is very easy....
First of all...if you didn't allready did this, instal Rom Manager from the market and flash ClockWorkMod Recovery
second...from the Android Revolution page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840040
just under the Themes are the "Extras" and in the extras sections, first ones are the "boot animations" (you actualy have some screenshoots there, and this is the link to download the first one
https://www.dropbox.com/s/qlrf5p3hw1dwr7h/bootanimation.zip )
download the "*.*.zip" files and put them on the SD card
after that ...reboobt on the recovery mod and choose from the menu...to install the specific ZIP file..flash it, reboot
and thats all

Sorry, don't know if I was very clear on my first post
I have already got bootanimations, and was looking to do a splash screen (the bit before the animation) but need a way of getting ENG S-OFF from a custom ROM.
Thanks for teyna help anyway
Then follow the instructions in my ENG S-OFF tool thread. Flash Raidroid Stockify Series 1.32.405.6 in clockworkmod before using the tool.
Figured out maybe
Ok, think I've figured what to do. It involves fastboot and adb drivers, but I cant get the drivers sorted in anyway.
If anyone knows anything let me know, but Ima keep reading into it anyway
Cheers
Jamie
You can follow radio flash guide (sticky), just replace "fastboot flash radio" with "fastboot flash splash1"
Where is that sticky? Can you link it...
Does it detail on how to install ADB drivers?
Cheers
ADB drivers come with HTC Sync, so install that. Go to sticky roll up thread in android development subforum, and you will find it.

I was about to install the FroYo update, but unfortunately it failed, so i tried to format everything from something called "ClockworkMod Recovery" (i'm an android newb). Now i can't boot up in android, the only thing i see is the bootloader startupscreen (idk what's it called).
Hope you can help
Thanks in advance
so you can not boot into recovery or fastboot?
if so, try running unvrevoked 3, it should flash you a new recovery where you can install froyo
if that doesnt work, just download a RUU from the sticky in the development section to get your bootloader back
use unrevoked to root it quickly
go into clockwork mod, just wipe data + cache and install official froyo + radio

I can boot into recovery. But where can i download the froyo update?
can you please give more info, i take it you used unrevoked to root
you dont need to download the RUU then
just download any working ROM from the development section and flash that.
this will get your phone working again
or you can download from the dev section here any of the official froyo roms and flash it via clockworkmod

Hello there,
As first I wanted to welcome everyone from Desire Z forums, as I'm moving from Leo section
I'm a bit confused:
I've followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905261
At the end there's information that I can install any ROM available, however there's also the matter of HBOOT.
Do I need to install HBOOT aswell to be able to flash custom roms?
EDIT: NVM. Post for deletion.

the guide has you download a PC10IMG.zip, that file contains the HBOOT. As long as that was installed and you have full root and s-off( to for s-off check power on by holding power on and volume up and look at the to) you can flash any ROM.
Hi,
I'm thinking to install Custom ROM to my DESIRE HD - "Android Revolution HD™ 5.2.5".
As I understand I need two things to make it happen: S-OFF and ClockworkdMod recovery.
#Question 1
As you see in image attached below - my phone is already S-OFF (why?! I did'nt do that!).
Is this means I am already ready to install ClockworkdMod as described in #Question2 ?
#Question 2
How to install recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.6-ace.img - really don't understand this part. Do I need to connect my PHONE to USB and boot in RECOVERY MODE, then do this on my pc:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.6-ace.img
fastboot reboot
(android sdk installed)
Is "ROOTING" doing after this step ?
Will my STOCK ROM will boot with ClockWorkmod ?
#Question 3
If everything goes fine and installation of Custom rom succeeeds. Is there a possibility to revert it back to STOCK using HTC official RUU ?
I couldn't enlarge the image you have attached but I suspect your phone hasn't been downgraded yet. Go through the development forum and find out how to downgrade your dhd thread and you will get all your answer. And everyone thinks of reverting back to stock but once you start flashing custom rom you will be always ahead of stock roms and you will never think to go back.
But reading is essential before you start playing with your $600 toy.

Sorry, I can't answer this question. A guru should take you through this one... But if you follow the threads below they tell you how to check the needed states.

To downgrad just follow this thread and then continue with this one here. Everything is written there and you should do excatly what they tell you to. Or just take this all in one thread.

This questions should be answered in the above threads and how you do it...
If you don't have to downgrade your phone or once it has been downgraded - simply follow this short video.
i bought a wildfire s that boots into the bootloader but i can't find any information on how to put the rom onto it. it doesn't have cwm or amon ra so i can't load any custom roms onto it.
any help or suggestions would be awesome
<-- Wrong section -->
Can you give us some more information?
is the phone S-OFF, can you access a custom recovery?
Willing to help, but need to know more...
yeah the phone is s-off, ill take a picture of the screen and upload it in a second
thats all i can get from the phone. when i click recovery it just hangs at the htc logo
You need to flash a custom recovery.
Follow the instructions here. After that you can easily flash roms such as CM7

hey, thanks for the speedy reply. that worked, but its just hanging at the htc screen when i try to go into recovery to flash a rom to it. its kinda bothersome... lol
You can install official ROM by putting the zip on the SD card and open the bootloader
Try to use the RUU program by htc. Reflash the custom recovery, and enjoy! (Footballs thread)

woops not silver... must be grey... anyway my bad.

Hi,
Just followed bagocrap24's excellent step-by-step guide for unlocking the bootloader on the One X and am about to install Clockworkmod Touch Recovery 5.8.2.7.
I'm on branded T-Mobile ROM at the moment (v.1.26.110.5). I have downloaded this ROM posted by rogersnm here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25310993&postcount=518
Once I've got the CWM recovery installed, is it a simple case of installing the stock 1.28 ROM or have I missed something? There seems to be so much information spread across so many threads, I don't know what I need to know and what I don't, if that makes sense.
I really don't want to screw up my phone, and would just like to be running stock v1.28 ROM.
Thanks for your help folks.
Hello there,
I flashed the InsertCoin ROM, it works very well and stock 1.28 with tweak options up to your choice!
Download the Rom.zip, copy the boot.img from within the download and put it in the same folder where u have the fsstboit and cwm files according to the noon guide u just followed, copy the zip of the ROM to the root of your HOX storage...
Power down the HOX and boot into hboot, select fastboot, connect your HOX, open a cms window on your computer type in
cd c:\fastboot
then
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You can flash first the zip from within cwm and then the boot.img as you have only your (backed up in cwm) shipped Rom on it, right? Take good care of the backup....
So, put the zip on HOX, boot into cwm, choose zip, install zip follow on screen guide, boot into hboot, select fastboot, do the cmd as above, re-boot and you good to go!
Be aware to not let the battery drain as in OFF mode it won't charge for the time being...
Let me know how you got on...happy flashing

Thanks for your reply. I've updated to the latest CWM Recovery and am now just looking for a stock, unbranded HTC 1.28 ROM.
I'm weird in that I actually like 'Sense', I'd just like to be rid of the T-Mobile crap they shoe-horned in (for no apparent reason or benefit). Would be nice to be network-unlocked too.
Is there a stock HTC 1.28 RUU for download yet?
Edit:
Am I being dim? Further reading suggests I may need to be on stock recovery and locked bootloader to install RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.9_Radio_ 1.1204.103.14_release_256469_signed?
edited. CWM was updated. ;p
Updated again? I'm on 5.8.3.1 which seems to be the latest.
I'm still being dim. How do I remove the T-Mobile RUU (1.26.110.x) and flash 1.28.401.9 which I've downloaded?
Folks, I'm still a little confused as to what I need to do to get the unbranded ROM on my phone. Do I need to flash a stock recovery, re-lock the bootloader, wipe the phone and then install the unbranded ROM?
Many thanks, I just don't want to delete the ROM on my phone without knowing I've understood what I need to do next...
Edit: With stock recovery and relocked bootloader, attempting to enter recovery brings up the red triangle with the exclamation mark.
Anyone...? I was really hoping someone might be able to help me out.

Start by following the Everything HTC One X link in my signature and deciding what you want to do. Come back if you have further questions.
Thanks pdagenius, I've already read through that thread.
As I understand it, I have two options:
1) install a stock, unbranded HTC ROM. This requires a relocked bootloader and stock recovery. When I reset to stock recovery and relocked the bootloader, I couldn't get into the recovery to flash the unbranded ROM. I get the red triangle with the exclamation mark.
2) I can use a different ROM such as Android Revolution HD (which I like the look of as it looks stock). However, there seems to be conflicting information wrt to whether or not to flash new firmware (seems this isn't possible with S-ON?). Additionally, the boot.img link for download in the OP is broken.
As great a community as this is, I've found that often there is simply so much information out there that it's overwhelming, and difficult to find what I need to know and what I don't need to worry about. I think to think I have a little savvy about me but tbh it's a little bit 'information overload'.
With the phone being so new, I really can't afford to brick it....
OK, I've gone with ARHD now..
Thanks to those who offered advice, this thread can now be closed.
