[Q] HTC Desire HD Starter - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
my brother has htc desire hd and he's requesting me to root it and install custom rom because he has seen my desire rooted with s-off and running with sense 3.0 rom which is amazing.
i would just like to request for some beginners thread on how to root htc desire hd. maybe have it s-off also and if it has also hboot partition just like what desire has.
Thanks in advance.

i would start here: "Desire HD Index"

Are you talking about which Sense 3.0 based ROMs are the fasters and smoothest? IF that's the question, then RcMixHD's ROM is the best 3.0.
However, the best ROM is still Cyanogen. =P
Take note that these are just my opinions. Different people have different opinions on which is better or worse.

i want sense 3.0 based rom. i will try that and Virtuous Unity as well. because Virtuous Unity is posted in coolexe thread and i'm a big fan of coolexe's rom. thanks!
when you say rcmixHD's? are you referring to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074191 ...? thanks

If you want a sense 3 rom thats close to stock in appearance but with performance tweaks, try Android Revolution HD

You should really try Virtuous Unity!
They update on a 2-week base and it's the most stable & smooth ROM I've ever flashed.
One small thing, they didn't update this Monday because they're working on implementing Sense 3.5 features into their ROM!
You can find the ROMs, updates, changelogs, ... on http://www.virtuousrom.com/

There are requirements every rom needs which are stated in the main post. If you download cm7 version you need cm7 hboot. Then you must decide if you want something built around newest official release or you want a port, a 2.1+3.0 hybrid etc.
But as you wrote in such fashion your first post, it seems you have some reading to do nevertheless as it seems you mix a rom and hboot. Sorry if I'm wrong.
Search before asking. If it's been asked before there is no need to ask again.

Try oxygen 2.2.1 which is fast, stable, fully functional, works with stock hboot and is running gb 2.3.5 - its what I'm using right now. Its not sense but its a great rom.
You wont find it on xda as the dev has started his own forum - search google for oxygen forum

Guys, cool it, there's no need to be hostile. XDA is all about helping others, and the Search function, as we all know, is far from perfect. It's not the most efficient way to get to the bottom of what msdl28712 was asking--which is user's feedback of different ROMs. Actually, this is the most efficient way of getting that info: by posting and letting users answer, then let the post sink into oblivion a few days afterwards. So you don't have to PMS over something so trivial.
As to which ROMs are fast, I find that Oxygen and InsertCoin are the fastest GingerBread ROMs. Oxygen is AOSP, built with minimal hacks, while InsertCoin has Sense 2.1 from HTC. They're both lean, as can be seen from the less than 60Mb-sized zip files (less half the size of other ROMs like LeeDroid or Stock ROoted GB). MIUI is pretty slim too, only 85Mb zipped, although that's because the English language pack is itself 25Mb. If you're Chinese, then MIUI is only 60Mb zipped, which makes it a lean, sexy ROM like Oxygen. Those 3 recommended ROMs I've used myself, and have had not one single bootloop (I always do full wipe before flashing, even if I'm flashing a newer version of the same ROM). I think those 3 are the cream of the crop.
I haven't tried your others yet, but that's because I've been so happy with InsertCoin.
I haven't had any issues at all and is nice and smooth. Also the tutorials on the Devs own site are really useful.

Android gingerbread 2.3.5 is the base of the rom. On top of it, htc added an user interface called htc sense.

Help finding a good Sense ROM.

Hello guys!
I recently bought a Desire Z and I want to change my ROM cause the one I have one is slow.
I have Android Revolution HD 6.3.3 (actually I installed it) but i think it's a little slow. I had before stock ROM and I was smooth and really fast but the backup got corrupted and I couldn't restore.
So now I'm searching for a Sense ROM that is fast and doesn't lag. And instead of trying every ROM I thought you might help me.
My phone is rooted and is S-OFF so if you have any suggestions I'm ready to flash .
Thanks in advance!

if you want GB then go for Energy!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1799376
with affinity, you wont be able to play games like temple run because its the most ram consuming rom ive ever tried, and i tried them all.
energy a bit better then affinity, but being sense 3.5 you wont be having more then 60mb free ram after some using.
i dont think you would like sense 4.0a roms either because of the poor battery life and screen glitches related to 3.x kernel.
imho, untill the 3.x kernels gets fixed and optimized enough, sense 2.1 is the best sense rom we can have.

Course if heavy android gaming is your thing, then I wouldn't recommend Sense at all for the rom on such a phone and rather something more along the lines of a AOSP style rom (aokp, cm, etc).
PS: The 3.0x kernel roms are always going to be slower than their 2.6.x counterparts.
I guess at the current time, if it must be Sense, shoudl go with something based off of Sense 3.5 or earlier (3.6 onward is ICS). But even 3.5 is considered reasource heavy, hence the 2.1 btrst mentioned.

Im not in to gaming anymore...i had a xperia play and had enough. I have the Gen Y rom right now and I like it...its pretty fast but it lags from time to time. I'll try the Energy rom tomorrow and see how it runs.
@PNuT
Ive tried that rom but some reason i got bootloops.
Or if you know a rom that doesn't have sense and runs gr8 i'll be happy to try it out.
Well for senseless roms try audacity or mimicry, they are the best ics stock roms I can think of, but there is this crazy dev working on a jelly bean Rom and its quite good but it is still a test build. The beta will be out soon. Am using my phone so can't post a link now so you have to search ..........hope I helped

are you wiping absolutely everything before flashing?
also might be worth trying to download it again
Yeah i did a full wipe...actually i do it everytime i flash a new rom. It might corrupted the zip while downloading so i'll try again. Oh and btw...whitch one you've tried? the one with root and busybox or the deodexed one?
I recommend you Gen.Y VisionX R1.

Sense can upgrade only whole rom
OK, so the only way to upgrade Sense is to upgrade the whole ROM?
OK, next question, which is the best ICS ROM with Sense 4.0?
Thanks for the help so far!
First of all wrong section, post questions in "Q&A" section.
Second of all you cannot put sense 4 on a sense 3.6 rom. If you want sense 4 you will have to make a full wipe and than flash a sense 4 rom likse sabsa prime or trick droid or virtuos infinity( this is my daily driver for about a week)
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda app-developers app
Why not try Sabsa Prime v5.0 | 4.0.3 | Sense 4 , It rocks
Because he wants Sense 4.0
This is the wrong forum for this anyhow, this is the Development forum, not Q&A. Go read and search before asking, much less creating a thread.
Thanks.

Wrong section, maybe a moderator can move it? But worthy of a thread, if it raises useful discussion, why not?
Not really, when you consider it's not something that can't simply be upgraded. It doesn't just sit on top of a ROM, it's attached to every part of GB, ICS, etc. I understand why the thread creator would like to keep Blackout and have Sense 4, but it just doesn't work that way.
However, the good news for him/her is Team Blackout is working on a Sense 4 ROM. So if he's patient, he'll get what he's searching for.
