The easy way would be to use ROM manager, open rom manager, do "backup of current rom" first to back up this working rom in case you want to revert after flashing a new rom, next go to "download Rom" and choose a new rom to download (there are only currently three roms offered in rom manager CyanogenMod,Virtuous and CyanogenMod Nightlies but I dont recommend Nightlies for noobs could have lots of bugs) it will ask if you want to install it, remember to select wipe data/cache any time you switch roms, and let it install the rom.
Other wise you will have to download a rom install it to the root of your sd card, open ROM manager, select boot into recovery, wipe data, wipe cache, select install zip from sd, select choose zip from sd, choose the rom zip you installed and apply, when done reboot and finish. Remeber in either case do a backup in rom manager first.

Thank you so much, do you happen to know where i can find a sense 2.2 rom??

Thats Virtuous, its what I use, use rom manager and download Virtuous 0.8.1 full rom and install.
Remember to wipe when changing roms, you don't need to wipe when applying updates.

Anytime you install a fresh rom, it starts fresh, you can use the app titanium backup to make a backup of your apps, and info and reinstall them onto diffrent roms. I would suggest to start reading the diffrent threads in this form and start learning how you use your new rooted phone and all the options you now have. Remember there are some roms and radios you dont want to intall on your phone, like the ones made for the desire z. Also might want to check out gfree for your phone. That will give you radio s-off and a true permroot, but you have to use adb to do this. It will also unlock the carrier and carrier id for the phone(so you can use other carrier sim cards). Here is another video on how to set up adb on your computer and the driver needed for your phone.
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
Remember dont do anything unless your sure you understand the directions. Keep reading and searching, this is what is gonna help you understand diffrent aspects of modifying your phone, another good resource is youtube, look up videos on how to do diffrent things, have fun.

First time Android and rooting my DHD

I've heard about this LeeDriod Rom u can flash after rooting your device. I wanna ask,
1)what benefits does it have over the existing HTC sense Rom? And
2)how it fares against other Rom such as Android revolutionary HD Rom etc.
Another question, I've used my DHD for around a month for now, if I flash a new Rom, will all the setting, application that I've set, downloaded , be gone?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Regarding to apps and settings I can confirm as yes on your question. There is a way to retrieve apps:
- Get Titanium backup
- Root your phone (you can use Visionary)
- backup all apps + data (in titanium press menu -> batch -> backup all apps + data)
Later you can restore apps with titanium again (all backups are on SD).
About first two questions I can not answer you, as I still got stock ROM, with few apps freezed with titanium .

Freeze with titanium? What u mean by that.

Titanium can freeze an app, this stops it running on boot and consuming system resources, but as it remains installed you can always unfreeze it if you have some pressing need for the software in future

Another question, how does the interface becomes after flashing leedroid Rom? Isit still like the HTC ui?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

HELP GUYS?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Hi,
The Leedroid 1.4.1 rom is pretty good actually!
Ive used it for the last few days and have to admit that its not only quick but also intregrates Facebook, twitter etc quite nicely.
The only thing I would recommend is doing a full wipe as per PhunkyCow's post for his CM7 build. (you can find this in the Android Dev part of the Desire HD section)
I believe there is a rom you can flash that Formats the /System /data etc folders and then wipe the Cache and the Dalvik cache etc.
I also calibrated the battery by doing the following: (i left the charging cable in the whole time)
Run the battery to 0%
Charge full up whilst on
Switch it off and charge for 1 hour
Switch on for 2 mins (this uses 1% of charge to boot)
Switch off again and charge for 1 hour.
WIPE the Battery stats in ClockWork mod
Because I had Clockwork Mod 2 on it would come up when charging it whilst switched off. This is ok as long as you wipe the battery stats.
Hope this helps as it took me a while to find the right rom (for now - want to use Gingerbread at some point but with Sense)

Oh and before you do this make sure you have the Radio S off as the 1.72 version of the kernel removes root access! and you dont want that!
Below taken from Leedroids FAQ :
"
•You will first need to ROOT your DHD.
•Apply Radio S-OFF/, S-OFF
•Install Clockwork Recovery: The easiest way is to root your phone as above and download Rom Manager from the Market, which has an option to install C'Work Recovery.
"
Follow all the guides and make sure its done as it will get you out of any problems that may arise!
Upgrade the radio aswell - makes a difference to the battery.

So how is the interface like after flashing the leedroid Rom?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Sorry if my questions have been asked, i did search but could not find it anywhere
Im also new with Android and wondering that if I flash one of the ROMS (revolution or Leedroid), am i able to update if HTC's new firmware comes.
There are some issues with stock ROM, e.g can not send email from exchange active sync, or problem with HTCsens.com. Do the mentioned ROMs fix the problem??
And also, after flashing the ROM, if I do the factory reset, Will my phone come back to stock Roms or the custom ones?

[Q] Install cyanogen mod 7 or update first?

hey guys!
I want to install cyanogen mod 7 on my HTC Desire Z. However, i heard cyanogen mod 7 was based on android 2.3. I'm on 2.2. I'm rooted, but I was wondering if I can just install cyanogen mod 7 on 2.2 or do I have to update and if I have to update, will I have to unroot my device or can I just do it just the way my phone is now?
Thanks,

CM7 is a ROM, it'll completely overwright 2.2, which is also a ROM. This would be the same as updating a Windows XP system to Windows 8.
So, the short answer: just install.
If you're unsure how, grab ROM Manager from the Market, with that app you'll first install ClockworkMod Recovery and then install CM7.
And, as always, be sure to do a full backup incase something goes wrong.

thanks for your help, but i have another question. When i try to flash cyanogenmod, rom manager asks me to wipe cache and data. What does this do? Does it remove all my messages, whatsapp conversation and contacts? So in other words: what exactly will wiping cache and date delete/remove?

When coming from a Froyo based ROM to a Gingerbread based ROM you need to do a full wipe which will, in effect, delete everything. Your apps will get redownloaded once you log on as will your contacts (if you have it set to sync) but to keep your messages (I'm assuming you mean SMS/MMS), download SMS Backup and Restore from the Market.
Remember, when you flash CM7, you also need to flash Gapps as Google Apps aren't included.

Please explain to me the need to do this, I have done about 50 (fifty) upgrades now, and (in between) never wiped cache or dalvik. And everything is working smoothly every time I flash, no problems whatsoever.
@timhesselmans; First read a few pages on this forum about installing a custom rom and the aftereffects it could produce. Always make a nandroid backup and back up your contacts and your messages.

Well, you're lucky then, as many people do have issues and wiping cache/dalvik fixes those issues; so, its a good habit to just go ahead and wipe those when flashing an update. It doesn't hurt anything, only takes a moment and remedies many of the issues people often run into.

Problems with fresh installed custom ROM after a few days...!!

Hi all,
I have a routed DHD and have used the advanced ace hack kit, everything went well and the root was successful.
Now when I'm trying new roms from XDA the problem is that for 1 week the rom work absolutely fine and after that suddenly it is in bootloop and then I have to change the rom.
I have tried the following roms:
1) Core Droid v9.2
2) Lee latest rom v5.1.1
3) virtuoso affinity latest build
4) bindroid
n a lot more but still having the same issue.
Right now I'm on ARHD 6.3.1

Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App

Hmm, strange. What about ROM internal modifications or options?
As you tried LeeDrOiD 5.1.1 you seem to have that problem not always after 1 week (cause it's not that old *g*), so what about trying this:
of course make a backup of your data
full wipe your device (you can make sure to do it right by using a full wipe script
install a new rom and fully boot it
keep running it for a day without reinstalling your preferred apps
keep installing the apps step by step and watch the system's behaviour
When installing your new ROM and setting it up again, do you restore any data by using tools like Titanium Backup? If so, do you also restore system data or apps (+ data) only?
PS: maybe edit your topic's title to something better like "Problems with fresh installed custom ROM after a few days" or so.

Help needed related to metamorph and titanium

I was trying to install a theme using metamorph, but when I was about to apply popup came out saying for precaution use nandroid backup.
My question is, is the nandroid and titanium are same?
Secondly when I took the back up of my user app and system data it was located in the internal sdcard, if in case anything goes wrong will I be able to restore it? I mean formatting will wipe my data or formatting is not required when we suffer problem due to metamorph?

Firstly:
Titanium Backup only backups your apps and their data.
A Nandroid Backup backups your ENTIRE ROM, EVERYTHING. You can find it in CWM Recovery under backup and restore > backup to external sdcard or backup.
SIDE NOTE: You can use Titanium Backup to restore apps and their data from Nandroid backups.
Secondly:
Wiping user data only formats /data, /cache, etc. It does NOT format the internal or external sdcard.
If anything should go wrong, Titanium backup will only help if apps are modded, not framework-res.apk or SystemUI.apk.
Make a Nandroid backup and if something goes wrong, simply restore it and everything will be back to normal.

Thanks a lot, app from the market will do? Its called online nandroid backup, is it the one?
confirming it Coz last time I installed busy box from market which I shouldn't have

If you want you can try it, but rather make one from CWM Recovery and afterwards try the app (just in case).
BTW which ROM are you using? Do you have CWM Recovery installed? Press [VOLUME_UP] + [POWER] + [HOME] and hold them in until you see CWM Recovery.
Usually BusyBox comes pre-installed with custom ROMs.

Almost the only way you can brick your phone is (1) interrupt it while flashing something, specifically a ROM or kernel (like force reset it it while in progress) or (2) do something that is known to brick devices (You will see warnings around and about the forum). In other words you really can only blame yourself for a bricked phone :fingers-crossed:
NOTE: The SuperBrick bug was also in stock firmware from Samsung - that's where it came from if I remember correctly...
Flashing CWM 6 will not (well shouldn't anyway) brick your device, provided you don't fall into case 1 above (like I did a while back ).
If you want to stay in your current Samsung degraded ROM (When you flash a Custom ROM, you will understand what I'm talking about), I guess you can use the app to make a Nandroid backup. It does, however, require BusyBox to work. Do you have BusyBox installed?; You mentioned that you have but shouldn't have earlier, but not that you still have it . If not then download this app and install it.
WHAT I RECOMMEND:
If you choose to go Custom, check my signature for the link to westcript's Resurrection Remix's (ROM) thread. There you will got most (if not all) you will ever need in one ROM .
NOTE: To flash a custom ROM you WILL need CWM. You can get it by flashing Siyah Kernel (In signature) via Odin. Also note that this would start the download counter so get yourself a usb JIG and the old i9100 bootloader.
If you want to be safe from the SuperBrick bug, flash Siyah Kernel: "no CAP_ERASE, no hardbrick" (from 4.0.1)

Apologies for the late reply. I've been away for the weekend so I don't have my computer at hand (and my phone is whith a friend.) I'll be home tonight and I'll write a guide for you.
One thing, are you using ICS or GB?
Don't worry about brinking your device - you have to really mess up to get a hard brick.
These few times I have use a BB to write on the forum will ensure my imunity from buying one.

This is for flashing Siyah Kernel. You can flash other kernels later if you want via CWM Recovery.
Hope it's clear enough - If you have any questions just ask
Please first read the guide thoroughly and download the necessary files beforehand (the links come as they are needed in the guide).
Download Odin v.1.85
Extract the package and execute Odin3 v1.85.exe
DO NOT change any setting and ensure that "Re-partition" is DESELECTED
Download Siyah Kernel for i9100 (Odin). You can find the link under "SiyahKernel S2-v..." named "DOWNLOAD TAR (for Odin)"
CAUTION: Please do not not download and flash the S3 kernel.
Back to Odin - Click on PDA and select the .tar file (SiyahKernel) you've downloaded and click OK
Put your i9100 device into 'Download Mode' by holding [POWER], [VOLUME_DOWN] and [HOME] and hold until you see the warning. Continue by pressing [VOLUME_UP]
Connect your device with the USB cable to your PC. You should see one of the boxes in Odin light up.
NOTE: If you do not see anything, ensure you have the latest drivers installed by installing the latest version of Samsung Kies
Now that everything is ready, click on "Start" and wait for it to finish.
CAUTION: DO NOT UNPLUG THE CABLE OR INTERRUPT THE DOWNLOAD!!!!!!!
Reboot. If it boots completely, congratulations! The part where you can screw up most easily is over
Download The latest edition of Resurrection Remix and move it to your internal/externel SDcard.
Reboot your device into CWM Recovery by holding [POWER], [VOLUME_UP] and [HOME] and hold until you see the menu.
Make a Nandroid backup under backup and restore - just to be safe
NOTE: If you don't want to install a custom ROM, you can stop here.
After the LOOONG wait for the backup you have to wipe data/factory reset (required to continue.)
NOTE: This will delete all your applications and application/configuration data (SMS's, Contacts(if you have google account, they should be synced and will be automatically restored),etc.) on the device. (NO DATA from either of your SDcards will be deleted)
Go to install zip from sdcard > choose zip from (internal) sdcard and select the RR package .zip you downloaded.
Confirm your selection and configure your installation of RR in Aroma installer. After RR is installed reboot the device.
That is it! Enjoy playing with the AOKP features already added and those soon to follow
If you want to remove the "YellowTriangle" at boot and reset the download counter using a USB JIG, download this old bootloader and flash it in the same way you did Siyah Kernel (also in PDA).
That should be all; will update whenever I remember something. Enjoy!!!

Thanks a lot. I'll mostly do it in the weekend (busy in my studies).
Thanks once again

Making a Nandroid backup will not wipe /data automatically; you have to "wipe data/factory reset" to do it.
Use GO Backup to backup your messages, apps and their data, etc. before you wipe the /data partition.
Google automatically keeps your contacts synced (see Settings > Accounts > Google and tap on your email address to see what is synced), but not your messages. Chances are your contacts are already backed up, but don't worry; GO Backup will do it in anyway.

thanks a lot......
m going through those process.
