Hi,

I tried several custom rom, but I would like now test a fully original android rom :
a rom without any HTC graphical layer, HTC graphical effect, or HTC App.
I would like to test how is android from stock.
I found some rom, for Desire, but not for desire HD.
any idea where I can find it please ?

Try cyanogenmod. This has no htc overlays. Cm nighlty 92 works well.

Hello,
thank you for your feedback.
I just tested it, and it is not working well.
I can't configure another account except exchange one.
there is no Android market app or Widget.
the wifi is not working well. I am near the wifi box, and it says to me that the signal is too low.
I continue to look for a good pure android rom )
thank you
Olivier

In order to get the google apps (market, ...) in cm7 you have to flash the gapps. You find those here: goo-inside.me/gapps/

[Q] Recommended ROM (Eclair) for HTC Desire

Hello.
Today I received the final answer from Parrot:
Hello again,
We've already exchanged
We now have the confirmation that the HTC desire has to be deleted for the compatibility list of the 3200.
It used to work with the 2.1 version it's not working anymore on the 2.2 version.
You cannot use the HTC Desire with the 3200 car kit and we're sorry for that and will correct our web site accordingly.
So it seems I will not have success with my Parrot CK3200LS-COLOR car kit, if I use Desire with ROM based on Android 2.2.
So my questions:
1. Could somebody confirm the compatibility of Android 2.1 (Eclair) with 3200LS ?
2. If yes, could you advice some custom ROM based on Android 2.1 for my Desire ?
Many thanks for suggestions.
Eclair custom roms were dead for long. Maybe AOSP is your way

A very good 2.1 rom is ammeruxh roms... (Amer_Bravox)

Moved to General as not development.
I have stock HTC 2.2 and it works perfectly with the 3200.
Try breaking the facebook links the desire puts in your phonebook if you add a facebook accounts and so on. I had problems until I did that, it worked perfectly afterwards.

I have no facebook links and I disabled Syncro in Parrot's pairing menu. So problem is not in phonebook.

I'm going to roll back from leedroid_v2.1a to r3.1 MoDaCo Custom ROM for HTC Desire with Online Kitchen (2.1 / Eclair). Must I reflash radio also? Now my radio is 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2. Is some difference between procedures of reflashing from 2.2 to 2.1 and from 2.2 to 2.2 based ROM's?

[Q] roms & bt keyboards

I have desire hd (rooted 2.3) & igo stowaway think outside bt keyboard, which has never connected; before rooting etc too.
Anyway, I got this app off the market because some comments said they'd got this same keyboard working with this app, but they had normal desire, rooted & running oxygen rc7 2.3 Rom. (can't get this Rom for hd)
So does anybody know what its got that I haven't, & further more a hd Rom that'd work for me?
Thanks in advance
CM7 seems to work with everything i throw at it
Ok ta, I'll try it.
One question though - I've downloaded the cm7 file from Rom manager, but it's named 'update cm7....' & is only 90mb. Is this the right Rom to flash? (i haven't had a cm Rom on my phone before)
Yes it should be fine. CM7 ROMs are well under 100 MB.
CM7 rom flashed.
Initial impressions are... i love it.
Just need to work out how to get onto the market.
Do i need to do the google apps thing too? (yes - how do i then install it?)
Not tried the bluetooth keyboard yet (might still need this app off the market)
You will need to flash GAPPS to get the Market. Look in the CM7 thread for the link.
Think outside igo stowaway bt keyboard now up & running )
No other apps needed, works staight off CM7 RC2.
Over the moon...

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.
Is this what you're looking for? Sense on Gingerbread based on Ace S (Is that Desire S??) Anyway , it is Gingerbread and Sense , as long as it works it should be fine whatever it is based on right?

All custom Roms are found in here if you wanna take a look.

Thanks 71baker. Yes that's basically it but I understand the Desire HD roms are safer.
Any idea where I can find a Desire HD (with Gingerbread) rom which works with the Desire and has installation instructions?
Try this one m8 i think you will find its what you are after.

there are some bugs in these roms at the present as they are early versions.

Thanks. That looks like just what I'm after. I'm not bothered about losing the video camera. It's absolutely rubbish.
720p is totally pointless when the lag is so bad, with even the slightest movement. My ancient VGA digital camera produces better videos (much lower res but perfectly fine motion).

what rom to use

Hope someone can point me in the right direction here, I have a rooted Telus HTC Desire HD. I have tried several ROM's and so far none quite fit the bill. I am looking for a ROM that is basically a rooted version of the stock rom. I only rooted my phone so I could use a clockwork recovery and be able to backup my device. Also Sense is needed as I use google calendar along with pure calendar to display my appointments, contact birthdays and facebook contact birthdays. Facebook for sense seems to be the only way to easily do this. I have RCmixHD which is supposed to be a port of Telus stock rom & I like it except that it does not have Canadian or US English options. If anyone has some ideas on where to look next I sure would like to know.
Hi jmc7895
Since you like sense.. you can try Android Revolution HD and LeeDrOid. Well you can try the Gingerbread version of them, you also have the option to try out the Froyo version.
Cheers. =)
I have to say I am no Android freak, I just started to use Custom Roms for 3 weeks.
But I could honestly recommend Android Revolution HD 5.1.x to everybody.
stable, fast, almost a rooted stock Rom, no trash inside, no problems until you do not install any "Sense 3.0 Addons"
only follow the guides and you will be happy with that rom.
I am currently using Revolution HD.
First custom rom i've tried, I love it. Looks exactly like stock Gingerbread, only waaay faster and with better battery life. Plus there's 24/7 support on the rom's thread
Just follow the tutorials, you'll be fine !
The only downside I could think of is that the rom is not directly available in ROM Manager. Not a big problem anyway =)

[Q] [Request] Need a Stock ROM without Sense..

i need a Stock Nexus S rom for my Desire HD as i am dam bored of this Sense and those lock screens.. more over any one can suggest me to use some launchers... but as i am need a stock ROM..
Use Android Rev HD with no-sense or no-sense++ script (HTC base 2.3.3 without sense).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840040
or CyanogenMod rc-1 (google base 2.3.4)

This is an alright solution though i do not recommend the no sense script, it only removes certain apps and pieces of sense, not altogether... Cyanogenmod is one of my favorites, but the best rom i've ever ran (No longer fully supported, dev kept inspire but bought evo3d) is Gingerbeast on the inspire 4g forums, by Dilligaf, i definitely recommend it.
I stand by Cyanogenmod. Its stock with a steroid injection.

Thank u guys i just got Cynogenmod 7 installed on my Desire HD it works really well..
But i have another Request for you guys ... i have to use my home internet connection .. tht is internet pass through on my Cynogemod 7 could u plz find me a soloution which suits the best to the phone.. as i do not have a WIFI at home.. i use the internet pass through which helps me to download apps faster as i have a slow 2G network...
A $10 usb wifi dongle can be plugged into your computer and used as a makeshift gateway to share your connection via wifi.
Unfortunately I don't use Windows, only Linux so can't tell you how to set it up.
The internet passthru never worked on Linux so this is what I did to get around it.
