Hi guys,
I got my Desire Z since the very first day it was available and I am still very happy with this great handset. I can already tweak and adjust existing ROMs to my needs and I have some basic knowledge (at least I hope so ). Now I want to make the next step and try to port ROMs from other devices to the Desire Z. I already tired it but I just got stuck at the splash image.
So here are my questions: Do you guys have suggestions for guides to follow (is there anything DZ specific to keep in mind)? Also guides for debugging a port would be very helpful to me.
So long
Cid-Vox
PS: Maybe I have to add that my main interesst at the moment is to port the latest MIUIv4 to the DZ (so anything special in porting ICS ROMs?)

Hi,
I want to try and make custom rom for my desire.
I have rooted my desire already.
Would like to make roms to match my own needs.
Any tutorial for making it?
Also what tools do I need as well.
Currently I have a Macbook Pro to use, can use VMWare Fusion whenever need to use Windows/Linux.
Thanks
Kevin
No Guide at all?
Thanks
Theres a sticky called chef central. hard to miss
Been there and look at them , but then doesnt have a kitchen for Desire though.
But I found 2 website about create a rom for android.
I have download a few roms for desire and having a look at them currently.
I hope I would be able to figure out to make roms for desire soon.
If you have update information, please tell me.
Thanks

anyone? please help
please read the stickies in the adroid development forum
i did but there is soo many im new. so i dont know which to use. and i youtube the video its all in different language. so its confusing
The guides are made for new people. If you dont understand them I'd lay off rooting your desire as you could brick it
Hey buddy. I was in a similar situation as you, on the edge of rooting.
I also have a Telus-branded HTC Desire. The method I used was : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=763558 with this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788044 for reference.
Its fairly painless. I have been hoping back and for between AuraSense, SenseHD, Miui, and Leedroid.
Found if you don't have a dire need for Camera, SenseHD is the way to go.
Otherwise, I've been enjoying the latest Leedroid.
If you are having problems following the guides, it may not be a good idea to root. However rooting the Desire is very easy (at least the GSM version).
I used unrEVOked to root, just download from their site, switch USB Debugging mode on, plug in and start the app ... it takes care of the rest.
I have used DeVillain, LeeDroid, and OpenDesire. LeeDroid is very good. I have personally stuck with Cyanogenmod. Very easy to install and the fastest benchmarks of the lot. Only problem .. no Sense .. but LauncherProPlus can do most of the sense stuff.
Happy hacking.
Hello to everybody, I've just arrived from the Xperia X10 forum with my new Desire and I would like to know were I could find info about rooting and flashing new firms. Also, what do you think are the best roms available?
Thanks in advance.
The stuff is here.
Rooting tutorials
UnrEVOked is the easist way, tbh.
Best ROM? Different for everyone.
If you want 2.2 Froyo with extras, try LeeDroid
For DHD ports try InsertCoin, RCMix, ReflexTSense.
I did not try the gingerbread ROMs yet, mainly because of the bugs (waiting till an official release).
Next time please use Rule 1 of the forum - SEARCH!!
Hey all,
Well today I decided that I wanted to get more into Android Developing.
I know some java, not much but I know **** about bash scripting etc.
So I decided if I could cook a fully functional rom together before I really started developing stuff etc.
Now here's the actual question:
I have a HTC Wildfire and would like to make my first custom rom for this device.
Is there a way to have just the stock android froyo with the drivers for HTC Wildfire?
Or how do I strip the stock rom for a HTC Wildfire from Sense so I have a basic froyo rom with the drivers for Wildfire included?
With kind regards,
Seprs
bump, can no one help me? :/
hello guys, im a happy new member of the desire community .
I have came from a Sony Ericsson Xperia x8, which i a little different in terms of modding your roms and radios... I have looked around the threads for a while now and not really found anything what answers my question, so sorry if there maybe a duplicate don't burn me if there is i have tried.
I know how to root my phone and the recovery installation as i had an old HTC wildfire what i broke but am not familiar with unlocking and flashing bootloaders hence why i need your help.
But i would like some help or answers regarding my HTC so here we go...
Well first of all the HTC is locked onto the orange network, i am currently on three so how could i get my phone unlocked... possibly free?
Also when i get my HTC unlocked if i flash things like new radios, roms, bootloaders ETC... will my phone remain unlocked or become locked again?
Also what is the first rom i should try out? I would want a fast one whats stable but maybe perhaps android 4.0 or above, can you guys give me some suggestions please thanks.
Ps: Sorry for the wall of text i want to make sure i get things right and don't brick my phone in the process of unlocking. :fingers-crossed:
Hey m8. Welcome I'm also new, but for our needs this page is the best, therefore i highly recommend to read this both threads, i flashed a custom ROM yesterday, so I'm very new in this, too xD

I think they will give you some answers
If you got any questions, hit me up
//Edit: If you start with Froyo 2.2.2 ( I did ), the unrevoke method won't work, i used the revolutionary method successfully.
//Edit 2: I use this ROM, it's a stock Gingerbread 2.3.3 with some nice additional Updates, its very stable and superfast. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200261 thats the link of the Rom, but you can get there good informations, too

Thanks for the help both of you I appreciate it
However i would like to know if i updated my radio after the unlock or install another hboot would my phone become locked again?

I guess not, but otherwise, if it is locked after flashing or other things: you can unlock your Desire very fast with the first thread in my first post i edited my first post and added some additional Infos for you.
