Hi all,
Very new to this forum and android. Last december 2010 I got a new Desire HD which I have started using now lol!!! previous phone was a nokia n96!!
This there a voting list for custom roms for the Desire HD to see which rom's are mostly installed by fellow members.
I have had my phone unlocked by t-mobile, I really want to install a custom rom, currently it has 1.72.
not sure which is the best if any rom to install. I have been looking at Android Revolution HD 6.1.5 which seems good to me.
your help and feedback on this topic would greatly be appreciate.
many thanks
install rom
having your phone unlocked won't allow you to install custom roms, your phone has to be rooted with s-off before you can install roms, there are tutorials in this forum on how to do this and what software you need ie aahk, multitool etc. also search is your friend but do read the tutorials then read them again.
[Poll] which rom do you have
Threads like this only lead to flame wars. A search would have showed you this.
Thread closed
thank you very much for your help

ok firstly my mistake, i have a locked t-mobile Htc Desire, then root it, then install a custom rom then install stock RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed
then run software udate and you have a stock 2.2 rom result.
well done...
<slow hand clap>
Thread is pointless really.
A) Your title and content is completely wrong and how could you not know this when you posted originally and B) The actual rom details etc is well known to most people as there are already plenty of threads here and other forums with same info.
Wake up dude.
This thread should be torched by the mods before too many T-Mo users think this guy is a genius.

If you need an up-to-date list of Desire HD custom roms down the line - there's one here.
You can also find some links and help in the Desire HD section too.

Hello and welcome to XDA!
First of all, you need to learn how to root your phone. This can be a tricky process, but you will find many helpful people here.
After you do that, you can install different Android versions on your phone, also called ROMs.
The 4.0 version of Android, known as Ice Cream Sandwich, is currently in Alpha stage, so you might want to wait a few weeks/months until it gets more stable. Until then, you can try many of the ROMs in the Android Development section.
I'll come back with some links to tutorials
Edit: As promised, here are the two guides which I consider are easy enough for a newbie to consider:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928160
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833965
I would recommend thoroughly reading the guides, making sure you understand *everything* and informing yourself about ADB and rooting first, though. Remember, Google is your friend.
The reason is that if you mistake something, you might end up with a nice HTC-branded paperweight. But follow the steps as written and read beforehand about what you are doing, and you'll be a-OK.
Dear all developers;
1st, I know that xda-developers had everything, but really I become very confused what to use and how.
as ICS and JB ROM incresed, and Desire HD start to become limited resourced for these ROMs, and alot of leader developers start to switch to newer models, I start to feel that this forum become so confused.
1st request, plz, Can any interested developer build an updated comprehensive threat for kernels not like this threat because I spend 3 days of searching the whole net for list of compatible kernels for desire HD and its ROMs.
2nd request, plz, As I mentioned above, regarding limited resourced of DHD. Can any interested developer build and update comprehensive threat for app2sd, link2sd,.... that compatible with Desire HD.
3rd request, how to add international keyboard for stock IME, I read every where and can't find my request.
Finally, sorry to open new threat here but really I'm so confused.

1. That index thread is actually pretty updated; it's missing a couple of the newest JB ones and a couple ICS ones, but the maintainer is currently busy with school in real life and will get to it when he can. In the meantime, the currently active ROMs generally crowd around the top of the dev forum, since people comment on those threads the most. Are you looking for kernels in specific, or ROMs? If you are looking for kernels, is there a reason you don't like the kernels that come with the respective ROMs? Those usually work the best.
2. There are many apps in the Play Store that allow you to move apps to the sdcard (Titanium Backup, Rom Toolbox/App Manager, Apps2SD, etc.). Is that what you are asking for?
3. Can't answer that, no idea.
and 4. This is the development forum, for posting ROMs and other contributions. Please put things like this in Q&A in the future.
The questions and answers section exists for a reason...
I spent all last 2 months searching for a soulutions, I tried dta2sd, datalink, EXT4++, native ROM edit for sd-ext but nothing work, some advices was to change kernel, but till now nothing works, if scripts can create sd-ext folder & move all data folder into, the phone stuck in reboot loop.
Advice plz

Hi ALL
I am very new to this forum and very little knowledge about ROM installation or (upgrading Mobile OS). This is a fact that there is no official Operating System update (sandwich or jelly beans OS) for HTC desire HD. However, custom made OS for HTC are available. According to my understanding these custom made mobile OS are called ROMs (consfusing for non-technical person) but every day is a learning day. I come to the point, the purpose of this thread to understand all this process to update my HTC desire HD. I have got few questions to ask which are as follows.
1. My HTC Desire HD is locked on "3" network. Can I still install Rom?
2. I need to know A-Z process in a simple and plain english please. I need step by step guide or in simple words "ROM for Dummies"
3. Which Rom is better? ( I know that this question could not be answered but for your conveniance I am giving these options which were I found from some website
1. MIUI
2. ParanoidAndroid
3. PAC Rom
4. AOKP
5. Cyanogenmod
6. AOSP
Could anyone answer all these question please?
Thanks
Riz
The first two questions have already been answered time and time again on these forums. Start with the Ace Think Tank thread in DHD General. Your third question is not permitted because every person has a different "better" ROM. Each has different features; you'll just need to try it for yourself.
