Thanks a lot.

No advantages. At all. No use.

I have already moved a thread of yours from the Development forum to Q&A, at that time you were reminded not to post a question thread in the Development forum.
With that in mind, I'd like to take this opportunity to remind you to read Stop!!!before you post - read this now!!!
Please DO NOT post a new question thread in Development. If you have a question, it should be posted in Q&A.
Thread moved.
Thanks

Such as? You can root all HBOOT versions now and if you ever need to downgrade you can so I can't see any problem...

the new hboot can only be rooted using one method, the version he has, 0.75, that is the same version of mine, and can be rooted using a simple rootedupdate.zip, as well as many other methods... so is it not disadvantageous to upgrade to a newer hboot with greater security for no reason?
thanks for all your replys everyone....ill just stay with 0.75
Hello, i'm quite new to the android system. I've browsed through quite some of the threads, and there are somethings i dont quite understand..
Please help me address them.
What is the difference between a telus desire HD and a htc desire hd? Are they the same?
How do i check if my phone version is eligible for rooting ?
What is a ROM ?
They are not the same.
Telus Desire HD is from Canada.
Both the Telus Desire HD and European Desire HD can be rooted.
A ROM is a essentially a customized version of Android that differs from the stock ROM that comes with your phone.
Heres a tip, do a search for Telus in Q&A and in Development section and you'll find most, if not all your answers after this.
Okay..
So how do i know if mine is a telus or not?
I got my phone in Singapore. Any way to check ?
Thanks for the ROM info btw.
I'll bite.
Telus is a service provider. Like Rogers, Bell, Orange, etc. If you got your phone from Singapore, there's no possible way for it to be a Telus phone unless the person you bought it from imported the DHD from Canada and sold it back to you.
as someone had mentioned, telus DHD is from canada. yours definitely is the general htc set.
Alright.. So is there any way to root a general htc DHD ?
I want to root it so bad.
You need to learn how to read stickies and guides on a forum. I bet you came right in here expecting answers without reading. Am i correct?
The telus version is hspa and is more like the inspire 4g

For your info, i did read up. I just dont understand the terms that are used. There are so many things, and as i said, i'm really new to android phone and system.. And i'm not really a technical guy, so i really need help from you guys.
Please bear with me, i'm trying real hard to understand what you guys are posting. And of course, i wouldn't wanna put my phone at risk if i dont know anything about it right ?
So yeah..
And thanks for the " Spoon feed " Gouki. Appreciate it. Will definitely read up on it.
So, another question, what do custom ROMs do to your phone ? How does it differ from the original ROM ?
Different dev create different ROMs.
Cosmetics like splash, bootup, bootdown.
Sense or no-sense,
different Overclock speed/capability.
And some have different apps. (Modaco with Wavesecure).
Etc...
Okay, i read the forum about putting a new ROM into your phone.
In order for me to do that, must i root my phone ?
Can the general DHD be rooted ?
Yes and yes.... the beauty of Android is the ability to mess around with the software. TUnfortunately messing up and learning for yourself goes hand in hand with it.
AWESOME. Thanks alot cue. You've been a great help.
Now... im going to check how im going to root my phone. Still kinda worried about what will happen to my phone if i do it wrongly.
My phone, is, REALLY, REALLY slow. Like seriously.
Oh yes, how do i check my phone version so that i can see if i need to downgrade it ?
And, can http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954997 this be used to help me root and flash a new ROM ? Will there be any difference in the rooting procedure ?
As said, if you got your phone from Singapore then it shouldn't be a Telus DHD.
You can check your version from Settings —> About Phone —> Firmware Version.
If you have a higher version than 1.32.405.6 you need to downgrade. Instructions can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
After that you can use this guide to root and flash whatever you want: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
This info isn't so hard to find...

Hi there XDA, I've asked a similar question to this before, however since then some things have changed and it's got me wondering, what the hell is going on over at HTC with these software build numbers?
I recently aquired a replacement phone from Orange UK for a Desire HD. The software version on the phone I sent to them was 1.32, however the phone I recieved was running a software version of 1.72, I know for a fact that when I sent that phone to them, there were no updates available, and the thing is, it's a door to door thing. Both handsets are exactly the same, they are both de-branded yet have an Orange logo on the back.
It's sorta fustrating because I know that one of these builds i clearly the one I should have, but I don't know which is which, would someone be kind enough to explain and point me in the right direction of the ROM i should flash? Thanks, and btw im in the UK.

If you want to root etc it would be easier on the 1.32 version but is still easy to do on the 1.72 version, you just use a different approach.
All the answers you need are in the development forum. Don't need to put a link here for you, it's not hard to find. Alternatively, use the link in my sig.
What ROM you SHOULD flash is up to YOU. YOU decide what one YOU like the most.

Didn't really want a sarcastic approach to this but ok :/ I heard that the 1.72 update was pulled, I don't want a rooted phone, I want the most upto date possible...

Then be happy. The phone you got back is more up to date then the one you sent off.

Your in luck, if you do not want to root, and have a unbranded handset you can have official HTC Gingerbread. An HTC RUU with the upcoming 2.3 release was leaked.
Check THIS thread and download the RUU.exe
So, I was just wondering if someone could explain this 'S-ON' and 'S-OFF' thing.
I think I have seen that you want S-OFF due to warranty and stuff, but I don't really understand what it is?
Thanks

I'm quite a noob to but it has something to do with WHAT you can acces. S-ON means you can only install roms and that's it.
S-OFF you can install new radio's and tweak the device a lot more!
Since we are both noobs I think that's all we need to know ;-)! S-OFF won't be possible through HTCDEV, you need a community build unlocker for that!
