I have the desire from when the phone came out. After 3 months i already had a custom rom running on the device, but now comes the problem.
Not one off the rom's i used made it to the end. Always mem leaks, error messages, battery problemsw or/and slowness after a while.
Now i want to know a ROM suggestion from you guys that i never need to update or reinstall because of one of this problems. I don't need to have a nice theme installed and i don't need the newest version of Android.
Just a rom that works for 1, 2 or even 3 years.
Thanks a lot for answering.
I have following specs from my device:
Device: HTC Desire PVT4 Ship S-Off
Hboot: i can use anything you advice (currently stock)
Recovery: 4EXT Recovery Touch (v1.0.0.5 RC7)
Radio: 5.14.05.17
Rom: thats my question.
Kernel: Anything you advice.
SD: 16GB (Class 10)

http://forum.oxygen.im/viewtopic.php?id=1476
Oxygen r2 hboot for Oxygen, Cm7r2 hboot for CM7, if you need more space use S2E. (you need 512Mb-1GB ext partition for it)
Also update your radio to latest one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687464&highlight=radio
Basically you can use anything CM7/Oxygen based if you want stable ROM. (you can try MildWild if you want something themed)

U can flash it using fastboot (fastboot flash radio image_name.img)
Unpack radio.zip for img
Also you can flash ROM without upgrading radio, but you will have to flash it if you will have some problems with wifi signal or reception.
Fastboot? First time i would use that.
Are there easy tools for witout using a command in windows that i don't get working after running.
Found it: Universal Android AIO Flasher Tools

I dont recommend rom manager but a simple way to flash radio is to install Clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.7 using rom manager. Fastboot is the best way but u can do it this way too. Download rom manager, install it then in the app go to the bottom and choose flash older recovery, 2.5.0.7 then u can flash radio in recovery as zip file. U can always flash 4ext recovery using the 4ext recovery updater app straight after u update radio. Look here for a guide.

Sorry for posting this here but I have not permission to post in the developers forum yet.
My problem is that after install Defy 2ndlit I try to install Pays Rom.zip by using recovery system but Defy 2ndlit says "Amend scriptin is no longer suported. It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery. Please switch to Edify scripting... bla bla bla" Installation Aborted
what happened?
thanks in advance!
You should use 2nd Init version 1.4.2 or 1.3 to install zip which are using amend scripting. The latest 2nd Init version installs CWM 3.x which will install only with Edify scripting.

Hi i have a probleme since 2 days i'm trying to install a new rom on my htc desire android 2.2. i rooted it with unrevoked and i use the clockwork recovery so i copied this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054435 on my sd i wiped Cache/dalvik and i did a factory reset then i selected install file from sd and i selected the rom in .zip and when it's launched i have an error : " installation aborted (status 7 ) i tried different rom but i have always this error message i really don't know what to do maybe it doesn't work because i didn't wipe the ext partition? thanks for your help bye
Try disabling signature verification...also have you upgraded your radio to the one recommended by the dev
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Sounds for me you have a pvt4 desire. You can check your desire's hardwarerevision on this way:
1.) Download connectbot from android market
2.) Start it, set "local" and write any name
3.) Type
Code:
cat /pro/mtd
Now look at the column "erasesize". If there stands a 40000, your desire has a newer hardwarerevision. With this the usually flashed recovery by unrevoked (clockworkmod recovery) does not work.
You have to flash a different recovery, amonra 2.0.1.
Download the img here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20471345/SUroot/Tools/Android/Recovery/recovery-RA_2.0.1.img
Then, start unrevoked, file>custom recovery>choose downloaded recovery. Now run unrevoked again. Now you should be able to flash things like custom rom from recovery.
even when i try to upgrade the radio it doesn't work :\ i'm going to try to install another recovery
unrevoked gave me an error : failed to get root.IS your firmware too new

Happy i could help. But you can make me even happier, if you press the thanks button.
If you install this rom, it will consume a little more battery. But this is only because of sense 2.1+3.0, so i think that's okay.
how to reflash radio. Need to work GPS. Using CM7 nightly. Clockwork mod
- Open ROM Manager in CM7
- Select Install Clockworkmod Recovery
- Download this Radio and place on your SDCard - Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25
- Then open ROM Manager again and select Reboot into Recovery
- This will take you to Clockworkmod 2.5.0.7. Flash the Radio file as a normal ZIP file. (Install Zip from SDCard)
Make sure your battery has enough charge before attempting this, and, do not interrupt the process of flashing the radio. If something goes wrong, your phone may very well end up bricked.
Thank you very much )

I did what I usually would have considered good research.Even in "http://androidforums.com" and "http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/".Just wanted to make sure.
I am a newbie here.First time rooted my device like 4 days ago so i was out of any idea.I was just looking for expert advice as I don't want to turn my phone into a $500 paperweight.
Anyway,i have ,successfully reflashed the RADIO.
Gonna check if it's working now.

Any ideas ?
Hi... I just found that Clockwork Recovery has new version from their website but in zip format. Try to install it through ROM Manager and recovery mode but it is just temporary recovery. Every time I enter recovery mode by pressing power and vol down and choose recovery it is back to old recovery.
Does anyone try this new recovery and how to make it permanent or is it available in img format so I can flash it using Android Flasher.
for your reference please find it here :
hxxp://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.0.0-bravo.zip (please change hxxp into http)
*** sorry for my horrible English and grammar
it is cause you use the fake-flash method, launching CWM 5.0.0 by flashing a .zip file from your current recovery.
in order to permanently change your recovery you would have to be S-OFF and have a .img file of the new recovery
My HTC Desire already S-OFF but where to find this img file of new CWM Recovery?
I have search over Google and this forum but did not found. Is it possible to change this zip file into img file?

Yes but not all file available.
like HTC Bravo only latest recovery in zip format only.
Thanks
Yeah, but as this thread is for v5.0.0.0 then people will want the newest will they not?
someone already did some test?
for example backup the current rom (maybe one with ext partition), then flash an other rom (just for test), and then restore the backup (and see if boots and everything ok)?
i will try later anyway, but of course will be nice to already know if its work or have some problems
Has any one had the edify script error with CWM 5.0.0.0 recovery ?
I flashed CWM 5.0.0.0 today via fastboot and it works fine - however I tried flashing Cool 3D V9 Rom and then when i flashed the boot loop fix & got the edify scripting error does any one know of a work around ??? I did a search and i found some code by coolexe and baadnews but not sure if there is a way to fix this ?

ask the dev to update the script in the flashable zip or flash a 2.x recovery (amend script is no more supported from 3.x and up, only edify is supported)
anyone have a changelog? cant find one anywhere!

follow koush or clockworkmod on twitter..5.x has faster backups (now it used .tar files) and preserve the file system of each partition (if ur sd-ext is ext3, it will be backup and restore as ext3, if u have ext4 it will be ext4, etc..with previous cwm recoveries the sdext was restored always as ext3)
also a new color sheme..now is blue light
edit: new recovery seems available 5.0.1.0 http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.1.0-bravo.img
I read from a koush twit :
"Desire and Desire CDMA users: I have just switched you to real flashing rather than fakeflash. You will need to S-OFF. with unrevoked."
so, out of curiosity, how Rom Manager can flash the recovery for real?
I always use fastboot, and i though there was no other way than that and the PB99IMG.zip method..
Someone know how that works (i mean the flashing through an app)?
i'm fine with 4.xxxx

Well there have always been another way just not on desire, since s-on users couldn't write to system or recovery while system was booted. But with s-off using a flash_image script will work just fine, which is pretty much what rom manager does(i assume).
So I asked koush on twitter to change us to native recovery flashing since s-off have been around for quite some time for desire
edit: so for everyone s-off that means: to update just install/open rommanager and press "flash clockworkmod recovery"(tested and working just fine)

Thanks to ur tips, i found how it works!
from the terminat emulator on the phone:
Code:
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
that should flash the recovery (even other partition i though), without use fastboot and without use the pc! thats nice!
On AOSP roms the flash_image utility is already included on /system/bin..in other roms (like stock ones) it should be downloaded and placed on the phone and used in the same way
that probably what rom manager does
So there is no way to get the latest version of ClockworkMod Recovery if we are on S-ON ?
You advise me please someone, how do I install a new radio to HTC Wildfire? Thank you Bulvar
Open to the recovery an chose install zip from sd, chose the radio that you want to install an flash it
Ah, but there I was jumping bug. Writes to me: Amend scripting ( update-script ) is no longer supported. Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5. It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery. Please swith to Edify scripting ( updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip peckages. Installation aborted.

Go to Rom Manager and select flash experimental or older version... once you have downloaded the zip (any version will do older than 3.0.0.6, so all the 2.x.x.x), reboot in recovery, flash the recovery zip (this will temporarily flash the recovery you have just downloaded) and now you can flash the radio, just like you would flash any other zip and reboot!
