[Q] desire hd flash rom help

guys hello,
i am new at the android "scene"
andd i need some help. a lot of people report that oxygen v2 rc5 is a lot
faster-smoother than htc sense. now from what i read it's based on gingerbread
right? and if so if i flash my DHD will i be able to root? and if yes could you provide
a noob's guide to flash my DHD?
thanx in advance.

Oxygen, isn't that for the standard desire? CM6.1.3 is fast and android stock. Isn't gingerbread yet though.

It's for the standard desire.

ok so do you have any other rom to suggest.
i am looking for one that isn't lacking any features,
is stable and has a smoother scrolling look on like an
iphone.
ps: no i don't want an iphone i just want my brother
who has one to stop using the only advantage of his phone
over mine to annoy me.

Just backup your existing Rom and start flashing Rom's. LeeDroid is popular, I run CM6.1.3 which I think is very good. Have a play and see what you like. Enjoy.

one last thing --> how do you flash a new rom???????

Read the sticky threads on the developers thread. You really need to understand what your doing before going any further.

ok thanx, will do.

ok so i got everything figured out. it's not as difficult as i thought
but there's a small problem. i install clockworkmod recovery from rom manager
but when i get into recovery i see the phone with the triangle. then i press
volume+ and power and the menu appears but it only has the 4 basics
no nandroid. what do i do?

Sounds like you don't have s-off. If you don't have s-off your recovery will be restored to the factory version when you reboot.
Go to the development section and grab the "one click radio s-off" tool. It will take care of the problem for you.

ok gonna try that thanx.

read and do this first
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841076
then choose any rom from the development section .. place the downloaded file on your sd card .. reboot into recovery choose install zip from sd card .. navigate to your downloaded file and install
I would recommend Android Revolution HD or Leedroid if you are looking for something very stable ..

ok guys thanx for your help but idecided not
to flash because i did some tricks and now my phone running fine.
1)uninstalled task manager (i am on froyo and you know the rest. haha)
2)uninstalled setcpu (i read somewhere that it may cause problems when running even if not profiles or any sort of overclock are active. that was the case with me, although i will miss the 245mhz screen-off profile.)
3)reduced my widgets and pages from 9 to 3 and 6 to 2 respectively
4)changed some options in launcher pro
these resulted in no more fc's and a lot smoother scrolling in menu, sms, homescreens etc.
despite the fact that when i scroll slowly between homescreens it's a bit laggy.
overall great.
thx again guys. if nothing else, i learnt a lot.

[SOLVED] Camera+flash+proximity sensor not working

EDIT: SOLVED THis was a hardware problem, solved by htc
My Proximity Sensor, Flash Lite are Not Working Now... And the Camera has become worst.. it is taking lower than VGA type images...
Do you think that the camera and sensor and flashlight are wasted or.. it is a software problem which can be solved
How will I know that my phone is BRICKED...
This is Happening With me
My desire is not waking up by pressing the power button and track ball..
It is happening again and again tried many ROMs aosp's too.. Different kernels..Even different recoveries.nothing is woking out
It is also happening with and without the a2sd scripts of different types..
After everytime this happening I have to reboot my device and after rebooting it works well but as i puts it on sleep be pressing power button and leaving it for few mins again same thing is happening ....
Despite of all this Battery is working just fine..
Only ONE thing is WORKING, as i'm using ext recovery. After the freeze happens I restarts it into recovery and do USB UNBRICK.. than it works flawlessly foe cou[le of hours or may be for one and half hour... then again the same type of freeze is happening .. It is happening with me from last two days..
I think my desire is getting USB BRICKED again and again..I don't know why..
Have you face this problem and may be know the solution..
: Now I've installed RMD recovery which seems to be far stable than others specially 4ext recovery..
: Today I've installed revolution 3.0 from tamirDa the ROM and it is working good...But instead of having 160MB internal space..I am having only 35MB space.... even after flashing leedroid's dalvik to ext.. it is only 133MB..
: I can live with all above as my desire actually started a little functioning ..
But as soon I restarts my phone weather in recovery or normal the phone starts after very long delay and says that battery is 0%... in normal mode it again shows 0% and gets power down..
: Again when I restarted it in recovery and in advance menu put mount on sd, ext, system, boot.. and restarts the recovery it starts very quickly and shows battery as normal.. and after that in normal boot.. it surely takes time but shows the battery as normal and starts functioning...
One strange thing is happening... after all thing phone is flying like hell..so smooth so fast never saw this before...and the battery is going upto 2days normally...
May be this is because I've not installed any extra applications..
My Problems are
1. Internal Memory is 35MB only(I have 1GB of ext4 part.)
2. Phone is taking too long to boot in recovery and Normal too
3. I am not able to downgrade or upgrade hboot..it is stucked at cm7r2
4. no rom except aosp's and revolution 3.0 is working
Here is What I've tried
1. In fastboot mode oem enableqxdm 0, and oem eraseconfig...In windows command prompt
2. Changed several recoveries like 4ext, clockworkmod v5, RMD, 4ext touch by android flasher and command prompt too
3. Tried a AOSP rom mildwild and revolution3.0, Runnymede Ai0 5.0, by wiping boot, system, cache, dalvik, factory reset, ext and everything came along in the list...FULL WIPE CLEAN INSTALL
4. reprtitioned sd card by gpartedlive cd
5. tried changing hboot..both from command prompt fastboot and by putting image zip on sd card.. both says successful but hboot didn't changed..
6. tried flashing stock htc ruu's ... phone stucked with the attention kind of sign
7. to solve battery 0% issue tried mounting all mounts inrecovery then it worked but long time .
since all this i've not estarted my phone.. it is working well but...as above..it is not working
can someone help please

Use HBOOT downgrader and flash stock hboot. Run HTC GB RUU to get back to stock.
Start again from scratch.

htc replaced the entire phone or just the parts...and how much time it took

They replaced the part. The whole process took 3 weeks. I live in iceland so it had to be shipped abroad and back which added some waiting time

[Q] Help

I'm not sure, if I'm right here. I use this site for the first time.
So, I have a little problem, and maybe you can help me.
Yeah, it's right: I've a HTC Wildfire S.
Now:
You know the phone well I think. My english isn't that good. At the top of the smartphone there is a button with which you can unlock the display/screen. But right there is my problem. This button doesn't work anymore. And HTC won't to that for free.
My question is: Could somebody of you - if it isn't difficult - make a ROM or something like this to change it? So that I can use something different for it? Like the buttons on the display or the loudspeaker buttons?
And there is another question: How I could lock the screen, if this button doesn't work?
I hope you can help me!!

In fact this is not only lock/unlock button, but the power on/off button. If ever your phone gets off, it's dead.
It is not possible to remap the hardware buttons. don't you have guanrantee?

Yes, I know that. But with changing the battery the phone could power on..
Do you mean that you cant do something like I want?

Yes. It is not possible. There is a way to wake up your phone with vol. buttons in a custom rom and locking can be done automatically in the security settings. but when your power button does not work you will not be able to flash a custom rom.

Thanks. That's not that what I hope. But better than no answer
To the guarantee question..normally yes..but they say it's my fault..I dropped it...but yes I dropped it but after 3 weeks the phone doesn't work..can tsomething like that be?

Try claiming on insurance for accidental damage.

Root using GUI on xda, install cwm recovery by alquez, install rom manager using insinks workaround then using rom manager install Henry's Hensemod that allows you to wake by volume
I'm on my phone. So no links yet

Did you try to put off the button and see if you can "fix" it manually?
I mean, if a small piece of plastic is broken, you should be able to stick it...
I don't know the exact condition, I'm just guessing and trying to help you.

since wfs has only 3 buttons, u broke the third of your phone.... and to make things worse, its power button ...
why dont you go to some phone service, and see if they could fix that button, it shouldnt be expencive, i did that on my htc tytn II....

First of all, I want to thank you all !

Thanks, benjamingwynn. I'm waiting 24/7.

Okay 5 days later I come back. I'm sorry for the lateness but I never normally go on XDA on my PC so getting links = problem. Here's step by step instructions:
1) IF YOUR NOT S-OFF - Use HTCDEV and unlock the bootloader.
2) IF YOU DONT HAVE CUSTOM RECOVERY/ARE NOT ROOTED - Click here, sign up, click on resources then click testing resources. Download the Auto-Installer GUI. Run the installer (Windows?) and then install cwm recovery and root.
3) Download Rom Manager from the Android market
4) Download Hensemod here, flash it using rom manager.
5) Enjoy Henry's wake by volume feature his amazing sense rom.
Any problems then DON'T BE AFRAID TO CONTACT ME! I will always reply even if it is a few days later.

[Q] Disable trackball unlock - rsk sense 3.5 rom

Hi guys,
I'm using the 'RSK team sense 3.5 with amaze cam' rom on my desire and was hoping to disable the trackball unlock feature. It keeps unlocking in my pocket and it's really frustrating. I've seen a few fixes around: one that fixes stock and one that fixes cm7 and was wondering whether these can safely be applied, or whether I need a specific fix for this rom OR, alternatively, whether there is a menu option hidden in the rom somewhere I'm just not seeing.
The fix I found for stock and cm7 is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14453689&postcount=10687
Thanks for your help!

There's an option in the aroma installer, but it doesn't appear to work. And although there's an option in the tweaks 3D settings for volume-key wake, there doesn't appear to be one for trackball :S

yh the option is in aroma setup like said above. u could look in the attachments of the rom thread coz theres sometimes zip files u can flash in recovery to disable/enable trackball wake etc etc

Did you ever get to the bottom of this? I'm also using the latest RSK rom and the trackball unlock is really bothering me and there doesn't seem like a way to turn it off.

Like i said above, the answer and zip file is there. Go to desire android development, go down to RSK rom and at the end of the rom title there is a wee paper clip (thats the attachments) click it, zip file there + other usefull sh*t.

Hmm... Ok. U could try look in other sense 3.5 roms for the correct 1. This is probably not recommended but i used to do it all the time with sense 3.5 roms and never had a problem. Just nandroid first before flashing anything
