Hello everyone,
I just got myself a new HTC Desire with Vodafone Branding.
HBOOT : 0.800
Software number: 1.19.161.5 (I believe this should be Android 2.1)
Kernel version : 2.6.29-b7e82785 (I guess this is still HTC original)
I wanna root my phone and if I guess that I can do further, I am also thinking of using another rom.
My main concern is that the internal memory can not fit any more apps and I still want to add more, after searching in the internet I found out that I need to root and/or to use other rom.
Second concern...I just wanna learn..
I have downloaded Unrevoked3 and the H-Boot USB driver.
From what I have read, I am all set for rooting (gonna do this tomorrow evening after work and after I have calmed down a bit, I am a bit nervous cause this is my first time ).
I have removed the HTCsync but still keeping the drivers.
I also know that I will need ClockworkMod. Make EXT2/3/4 partition with at least 512MB (I would like to make it 1gb) and optional SWAP (perhaps I will make it 256mb, do I really need SWAP?).
So, please teach me on :
1. Now about the rom, I need an Android 2.2 with optimum stability and speed, to tell you the fact, I don't even now which one and where to get it.
2. Beside the main rom, do I need also the camera and radio rom to get them running? again where to get them? How do I install them? The same way as installing the main rom (from HBOOT recovery)? Before or after installing the main rom?
3. How to make the back up of my current rom, setting, and apps? I don't have much apps yet but perhaps I would need the backup if something went wrong.
I still a whole bunch of questions but I guess those will do for now.
Please be kind and help me one this one pleaassssseeeeeeeee...
Anyway...thanks in advance.
Read in development.

1. This thread has all the rom's in it. It's all about personal taste but if you like sense i would recommend Leedroid to start with.
2. When you come form 2.1 you will need to upgrade your Radio, if you OTA upgrade to 2.2 before rooting you do not have to update your radio but you can. A link to the radio thread is also in the above link.
3.
Once you are rooted with unrevoked you can preform a nandroid form recovery or you can download Rom Manager from the market and backup via that.
If you just want to backup apps you can use titanium backup or you could sync your apps with appbrain and reinstall them.
About the ext partition, i think swap is not necessary and if you want a 1 gig partition use Gparted
Thank you very much for the answer.
I will look into those first.
If I found any trouble, I will ask you guys again.
Thank you again.
First, I wanna say thank you again.
I have read some review about the LeeDroid. It sounds very good.
I will pick LeeDroid as my first after market rom.
I will thus flash (.zip files are already downloaded in the PC) :
Leedroid 2.2e
Latest Radio ROM; 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.27
LeeDroid 2.2e Kernel Boot Fix (Just to be sure, because I don't how my desires proc can be OCed)
DSP Manager.
My last questions:
- Is there any particular order which rom I should flash first?
Example : LeeDroid - Radio - Kernel Fix - DSP manager
-Can I flash them all with only 1 reboot (flash everything and choose reboot only once in H-Boot recovery menu)? or Do I have to flash only one at a time, reboot, and flash the next one and reboot again?
I'm not sure about radio's.
But if you flash leedroid 2.2e you need to flash it and after it (without reboot) flash the bootfix kernel.
Addons and theme's should be flash after the first full boot.
that is the correct order
you must flash the rom first, reboot, then flash the rest all in one go. REMEBER the first reboot is important!!
Got it!
Radio (I need the radio rom cause my radio rom is old, belongs to original 2.1) , Leedroid main rom and Kernel Fix in one go, then 1st reboot.
And then the other addons in one go.
and of course reboot again.
Thanks a lot guys!

It needs to install the boot images for the Rom.

lots of things came up to me this weekend, I am not able to flash my Desire.
Since I am doing this for the first time, I would like to have a quite time for myself alone, so that I am calm during the flashing just in case if something went wrong.
well...I will do it (I hope) on next friday evening...
I will write again the progress next week.
Untill now all I have done is the rooting via Unrevoked3, and installing the rom manager from android market. I haven'T even formatted the sd card.
Thanks again.
OK, Go to hell with quiteness.
I can not wait hehehehe just to anxious to start flashing.
and.....
I did it...it works...
Thank you
Flashing is not that hard...hehehehe...
I have played with LeeDroid and I have to say...This can do a lot more than the original.
Hmmm...I a fan of Sense although some say it slows down the phone.
I have tried the HTC HD ROM on my Desire, I like the new sense but too bad the camera still doesn't work. I have to go back to LeeDroid just because of the camera problem.
|OP|,
I joined this forum because I am a newbie just like you (before you got your Jedi-Flashing Wings).
I too have a HTC Desire running Android 2.2 (Kernel 2.6.32.15). I have exactly the same problem as you had - I've run out of room for apps on internal memory and the standard Froyo apps2sd thing can't shift anything else to the SD card.
I'm really interested to learn how your phone handles apps now. Does your phone think it has 1 gig of internal memory? Are you able to shift every app to the SD card? Did you have to give up your HTC apps and widgets?
I would really appreciate any feedback.
Cheers!
Yup...limited room for installing apps is my main or perhaps my only reason of flashing my desire with modified rom.
- About the 1GB thing, well I didn't do it since I wanna try the flashing procedure just as it is described in youtube desire rom flashing guide (not confident enough to do it all alone), and it is shown in youtube using only 512MB
But, I will try it later (planned on december after I finish my university assignment).
-Well, I have flashed and used it only for about a day or two, so I am still not 100% sure, but all the apps I have downloaded and installed are all going to the SDCard. I guess all of them will eventually go to the SDCard.
-HTC Apps and widgets? Everything is there, as far as I noticed until now.
Now, I am enjoying the DSP equalizer, apps to SDCard (16GB ), but still afraid of OCing.
SMS, WLAN, Camera, E-Mail, etc. seem to work smooth, no bugs found so far.
My Desire seems to run faster than with the original rom, but it is just my subjectiv comparison.
The phone won't 'see' your EXT partition but when you install apps the quoted storage will barely go down...I have a 1GB EXT3 partition on my SD card for when I use a custom ROM, its 16GB so I don't miss the space as I'm on a stock ROM at present and don't use many apps

If the storage are going down or used slowly, is it worth to have 1GB as EXT3 or just leave it be at 512MB?
Depends on the ammount of unneccessary apps you plan to install

Hahahahahahaha....
You got that one right on the spot.
Most of my apps are games.
Games are not considered as necessary apps.
I will stick with 512MB
Thanks EddyOS and |OS|,
This sounds awesome! I've got 14 MB remaining on my internal memory and a long list of apps I still want to play with.
With this news I'm going to jump into the whole flashing/rooting thing (incidently why do both of these terms have sexual overtones?).
LeeDroid here I come!
|O2| did you use the Unrevoked root method? Could you possibly post the youtube link that you mentioned? I am, as you were, quite anxious about turning my beloved Desire into an expensive paperweight so any extra tips would be very appreciated. (I have heard that it is fairly simple and has a very low risk but I'm still a bit hesitant)
Thanks again! What a wonderfully helpful community this is!
Hi everyone i rooted my phone last night for the first time with LeeDroid, all that seemeed to happen was that it went back to the way i got the phone in the first place
I dont have Market, and if im honest i have no idea what to do
Can anyone help at all please ?
Thanks
Phil
Would i be better just downloading the 2.4 rom and trying that ?
How will i know that the ROM is installed correctly as like i said before it just seems like a new phone i got straight out the box ?
thanks
When you flashed the ROM did you do a full wipe? and Dalvik Cache too?

Honest answer , dont know
i think i rooted it correctly using Revoked, or it appeared like it did
in the software info on the phone it has this which to me means nothing but to someone it will
android 2.2
kernel version
2.6.32.15_leedroid_2.3 [email protected] # 1
software number
LeeDroid_V2.3d
Can you help ? thanks
That is a successful flash mate by the looks of it. Of course you lose all apps and settings after flash, and as far as I know leedroid is a sense Rom, so it looks very similar to what you got out of the box, but now you can mod it and flash different kernels and scripts, like data2ext.
Oh, and regarding market, just search for market apk and install it the way you'd install any app.

LeeDroid looks and feels like a stock rom but with added extra bits, and speed.
you can overclock or underclock with setcpu run rooted apps.
the good thing about LeeDroid is that it looks familiar so it's a good starter rom to play about with. if you want something other than sense try a Miui rom or Redux.
Ive got 2.4 now but i have 2 issues
1. the market force closes when i select an app
2. when adding the htc people widget it lists no people in where they usually
Thanks
Now my SD card is saying Mounted Read only ?
any ideas ?
did you make an ext partition and a full wipe?
I don 't have any issues with this rom
Yes and i just tried to go back to delete and redo a new partition but its not showing only my pc is ???
i just reset it and now im getting the leedroid background i wasnt getting before , ive had to setup everything back from the beginning , facebook passwords etc
market is now working but im still getting the mounted read ony error
Either corrupt card or bad partitioning. Just partition it in recovery and search for ext align tool on Baadnewz blog. Google is your friend.
If partitioning doesn't help, try different card.

ok sorted that last issue but how will i know if ive partitioned the sd card correctly ?
ive got a 16gb one and it says total space 13.75 & available space 13.47gb
and on the internal it only says 129mb
why is this ?
What was the fix for the last issue? If you don't provide full info we won't know where it could have fine wrong.
Sent from InsertCoin 2.0.1
tinky i partitioned it as you said in recovery but then i couldnt get past the loading screen with the joker on it aftwerwards
So i went back into recovery and i had to do a restore that was the only way i got it working and the memory card issue also vanished
Now its working properly should i backup my current ROM in ROM manager ?
what else do i need to do to make sure i dont **** it up in future ?
Also how will i know if ive partitioned the sd card correctly ?
ive got a 16gb one and it says total space 13.75 & available space 13.46gb
and on the internal it only says 116mb
How much space you assigned to ext? Also, not all roms support ext4, so if you did use align tool, then quite possibly that your Rom just can't see ext partition. Solution, partition again but this time don't use align tool which will convert any ext partition to ext4.
Regarding not loading after partitioning that is sort of expected, restore done the trick for you. Regarding not getting into this situation again, once you get it right just use recovery to do nandroid and ext backup, and keep it safely on pc, in case you need to change SD card. Then you just partition new card and do restore.

Anyone having issues on the latest Leedroid 2.4 with apps that have been updgraded from in-app billing?
Have one app (quota) which is now disabled due to the fact that the upgrade is now in progress whereas it worked fine on 2.3d.
The app dev suspects it is ROM and market related as other stock ROM users haven't had the same issue.
Hello guys!
First of all I would like to thank everyone who participates at XDA Developers. Incredible Job!
Since a few weeks I'm having problems with my HTC Desire using several ROMs.
I've been using Mildwild 3.2 since a few months and it went like a charm, so there was actually no need for me to change it. But then Mildwild 4.0 was released and for some reason I thought it might be a good idea to update my Desire to the latest Version.
I took my AData 16GB Class 10 SD Card and used GParted to partition the Card like it was supposed to be. 1GB Ext3. But when I installed Mildwild 4.0 I always had the same problem that when installing Apps the phone just "rebooted".. I'm using quotation marks, as it does not completely reboot, but instead only shows the "Mildwild" Logo (not the green HTC text on white background). The app is not installed. When i completely reboot the phone it is most likely to happen, that i can install the app without any problem.
As I did not find any solution to this and Mildwild started working on an ICS ROM i decided to switch to a different ROM that i already experienced a few months ago (at leat its predecessor) - Redux2 ZM 4.4. As I always thought that the problem is caused by my SD Card i decided to buy 4EXT Recovery from market and clean up everything before installing it. I formated everything /boot, /sdcard/, etc. - everything! And repartitioned the SD Card with 1GB Ext3 and 15GB Fat32. After installing Thalamus r4 kernel and redux2 everything has been restored from google servers like a charm, but for some reason some apps could not be downloaded. When I tried to install them manually after the automatic download finished.. guess what happened? The phone rebooted with the "redux" animation..
I actually dont have any idea anymore, what the reason could actually be. Maybe you can help me with my problem, as i just want to use a stable ROM on my beloved desire.
Thx in advance and sorry if i didnt find a thread that already discusses this problem!
i suggest you unstall some apps,because i've gone through this problem.It happens when there was a little space left.
Well, it says 130 MB left on internal storage
Same problem - no solution yet
Hi - I have also been having the same problem for the last 3 or so days. However, I am on an HTC Desire using LeeDroid ROM - so it would seem that this problem is not dependent on the ROM. Would be very grateful for a solution. This is starting to drive me nuts.
Im still struggelin with the problem. I thought it might be caused be a corrupted partition table? The idea with low space might also be the problem. Actually there are like 110 MB free whenever i look it up, but there might be peaks where it is lot less.. seen 40mb space left already. But why is this possible anyway? Thought this is the reason i have a sdext partition..

ok, i just wiped everything, formatted everything, repartitioned everything (1 gb ext4), flashed stock hboot, wiped everything again, flashed cm7r2 hboot, wiped everything again, flashed mildwild 4.0, flashed kernel r4.. booted once, set SD-EXT to active, rebooted, set sd-ext to default installation location, rebooted again.. now apps are downloading from the google servers and everything seems to work like a charm.. no "reboots" which i had the last few weeks.. ill keep u up to date
Sry for bringing this thread up again, but looks like I'm having the same problem as mentioned in the first post. Almost everytime I try to update or download new application, phone does the same as thread author described.
I'm on stock HBOOT if it means anything, Mildwild 4.8 based on Oxygen. Do I have to update HBOOT to fix this or is there another solution ?

Changing hboot doesn't help.
Just do what the OP did. Wipe everything, repartition your sd-card, and then see what happens.
I'll give it a try, I see Nobizzle did flash cm7r2 hboot so that is the reason I asked that. Nevermind, I'll stick with stock and report result after I finish.
Hi
I have recently tried to flash my Desire with some ROMs and all of them hang and i have to snap the battery.
Here are some details:
I have completely formated my SD card using GParted Live into 2 partitions. One fat32 ~ 6 GB and another ext4 ~ 1.6 gb
I performed a full data wipe> cache wipe> dalvik wipe ; before installing any ROM
Installed the ROM> booted > (phone hanged on first boot at the home screen or if not then while using)
Phone works for sometime and starts hanging every now and then... I am not able to use any ROM AT ALL!!!
First i flashed RunnyROM (but that time i did the SD card partitioning with windows) > got hangs and installed SuperNova > got hangs> learnt that the partition needs to be done by GParted > did that installed same ROM > got Hangs > installed Silky ROM > got Hangs> did partition again with GParted> installed Runny ROM.... HANGS HANGS HANGS................aaaahhhhhhhh!!!! BRAINDEAD!
PLEASE HELP!!

The problem is the stock ROM works almost perfectly but I'm not able to use any ROM that requires SD-Ext partition. I've tried with CPU governors and "smartassv2" with 384~998MHz setting seems to be pretty stable at the moment - second round of AnTuTu Benchmark and it still isn't frozen! If it survives the third round, I'll set these settings permanent.
When you try any ROMs, don't plug the charger - it'll propably hang.

What class SD card and is it a high quality one like Sandisk?
Sent from my HTC Desire CDMA using xda premium
Do a full wipe of everything:
>system
>data
>cache
>dalvik
Then use a ROM that doesn't use Anything2sd. Then I really don't see how you could get any hangs. If it is rebooting, then it's possible it's a hardware issue where it overheats and reboots.

Always did the FULL wipe... have been looking for a ROM without the App2SD ... but can't find any... I think everyone wants that... ... Why isn't it working for us????
At this point i wouldn't even mind the stock ROM... but strangely the RUU i tried to flash gave an error (mentioned above) now i don't know my compatible RUU.
Please point me to one and i should get over with this .... extremely sad that i can't use such wonderful ROMs... don't even know what's wrong!!
First: I had problems with EXT4 partition, try EXT3 instead.
Second: I recommend CronMod-bravo/bravoc ROM , follow the guide strictly (beware, there are two versions for GSM and CDMA phones).

Most AOSP ROMs don't need A2SD since they can fit into the cm7 or oxygen HBOOT.
CM7
Oxygen
MIUI (Choose the one without A2SD or D2EXT)
dGB
Devnull
I'm sure there are others too.
Also, maybe your SD-Card is just sh*t, because aside from the obvious slight performance decrease of A2SD, there weren't many problems with it. Have you tried other SD-Cards? I'm not saying to buy a new one because it could turn out to be a waste of money, but if you have a spare one which is Class 6 or higher, try that. You can always buy one from the store and return it if it still isn't working as it should.

Hello everybody,
I am trying to root my mobile phone on something stable, but it is impossible... I used more than 20 different root, and always the same :
Crash after some hours, by different ways :
- I want to unlock, but the screen stays off (the led of the hardwired buttons lights on, but nothing more)
- When I unlock, it stay in the unlocking phase
- In use, reboot without any visible reason
- When I receive a message, the app make the phone crashing (I missed the born of the child of my best friend by this way ^^)
- ...
My phone informations :
Htc Desire, S-OFF with Unrevoked3
Hboot : stock or cm7r2 (depending the recommandation of the developper of the rom)
Radio : 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23
4Ext Recovery touch
Thank you very much,
Olivier
I am guessing your phone is "rooted" and you are having problems with stable roms?
Do you have an ext partition on your sd card? Are you wiping all partitions in recovery before flashing rom?
Try good old Leedroid rom here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768703 using stock hboot
Thank you for your answer.
Yes, my phone is rooted and I'm having problems with roms, not root as I said, sorry!
All the roms I tried were "stable", except perhaps 3.
I have done an Ext4 a week ago, to try if it is better (with MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Editio), but before, I had an Ext done by the recovery. I think Ext2
I wipe all partitions every time (except SD card, for my data) before flashing.
I will try this one, and hope it will be good =p
Thank you very much!

Do you have an ext partition on your sd card? Are you wiping all partitions in recovery before flashing rom?
Try good old Leedroid rom here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768703 using stock hboot

This was very very very instable... I made installation (as they asked, from a to z), but it crash.
I tryed this one again with the new ext3 : http://downloads.nikez.nu/
We will see how many hours without crash (yes, I count it in hours =( )
Thank you for helping, I tell if the ext3 made with this method was helpfull!

What make of sd card do you have? Some are better than others?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
The SD Card is a SanDisk 16GB Micro SD
I tryed the leedroid rom again : 2 crashes in one day... As for every other : unstable for me... But why, I don't know.
I put my very old version back (the one which was on my phone before beginning rooting and other pretty things like this). I need something stable before having an issue.
If you have other ways to explore, I take it! I want a new version of android, and not the original 2.2.2 as back now
Thank you
Same Problem

Hello everybody,
I am trying to root my mobile phone on something stable, but it is impossible... I used more than 20 different root, and always the same :
Crash after some hours, by different ways :
- I want to unlock, but the screen stays off (the led of the hardwired buttons lights on, but nothing more)
- When I unlock, it stay in the unlocking phase
- In use, reboot without any visible reason
- When I receive a message, the app make the phone crashing (I missed the born of the child of my best friend by this way ^^)
- ...

Ive been having the same problem with my Desire since the last year or something. I haven't been able to find a single stable ROM since I rooted my device. I'm pretty sure I have tried almost all the ones available in this forum. I'm also quite sure that I have rooted my device properly.
In addition to the above mentioned problems my phone also has problem accessing data from the sd card. I am using a SanDisk Ultra 8GB, with 512mb ext4 partition made using Gparted live boot cd.
My phone information is:
HTC Desire soff with revolutionary
hboot - 6.93.1002
radio - 5.17.05.23
ROM - currently trying out PARANOIDANDROID v2.99 betaNINE+ | PIE | TabUI | QUICKTOGGLES
It will be of a big help to me if someone can help out with this issue.
Now, we are two with the same problem...
I have two crash in one day since I put my original version back. Not so bad, but so old! =p
