Problem installing any rom

i was installing a rom and i had some error.
Now i couldnt install any rom.
what i should to do?
please someone help me :/

look
look around the forum for threads about this problem. and it would help if you knew your error so you could search for that particular one.

The first thing you should do is to learn how to take notes so that you can provide information for others to try to help you. I would NOT attempt flashing any more roms until you have mastered that first step. Please understand that your installation of some unknown rom, and then receiving some sort of error message probably isn't going to get many meaningful answers from forum members.
The second thing you should do is read the wiki, and the rules of posting on these forums. The rules will point out the necessity of providing details, as noted in the first step, above. The wiki might explain things you needed to watch out for before you took your first steps to upgrade (maybe too late for them now, but who knows?).
Anyway, good luck with your dilemma. Hopefully, somebody who's got a working crystal ball will be able to provide some further assistance.

Also, dont install roms with vista. It works for some and not for others.

I have used Vista to flash ROMs all the time and never have any problems.

Original OS of the Diamond

Hello everyone,
I hope I posted my first question here in the right area (if not, shame on me )
In the next few days my HTC Touch Diamond will arrive from Vodafone. I do not know if this is just in Germany but my last phone from Vodafone, a Sony Ericsson W810i, also had a "special" Vodafone-OS on it. On the W810i I was finally able to look up all the necessary information myself to make it a Vodafone-free phone. But as I read through all the available Wiki's, FAQs and other threads I am starting to see that this might be another level compared to what I have done before.
My questions concerning my new device are whether there is a possibility to change the "Vodafone-red-theme" to the original one which you also can see on HTC's homepage. Of course, the whole device should be in its original form, not just the theme, whereas the Vodafone-Services (SMS-Gateway and all the other service numbers which are needed to use the device). I think it is possible, maybe it has something to do with a "ROM-Upgrade" or so, as I have seen in a FAQ around here.
My other question is, of course, how to do that, what tools are needed etc.
In short, I need you to provide me the right link to a tutorial since here are so many and I do not know which one to take (and I do not want to screw up the device).
I hope that you can help me, if I accidentally posted this thread in the wrong forums might a moderator please be so kind to move it to the right section and notify me of my fault.
Thanks in advance and greetings from Germany (or Bavaria, to be more exact )

We'll let you off!
Yes, you are in the wrong section... you should be in the 'Diamond ROM development' section, but everyone is allowed one mistake (Except, myself... I have infinite mistake allowance!)
My device was vodafone branded when I got it, and that's the first thing I wanted to get rid of too.
First you need to 'Hard SPL', which unlocks the device so you can flash any ROM you wish. Then just flash your required ROM. I would highly recommend AZTOR's X2 Ultimate. He has the philosophy of keeping the ROM as close to the original stock ROM as possible, only better, stronger, faster... like the bionic man (I'm showing my age now!!).
Everything you need is in this tutorial. I followed it to the letter, and now my device is everything it should be. It's always very nerve racking the first time you flash your device, but what ever happens, there's some sharp wizard in this forum with the knowledge to get you out of the brown stuff... have fun

Hi grahamkdt,
thanks for you reply. I already thought after submitting that it would have been better to post this in the development area. I will contact a Mod immediately to solve that.
Thank you for the recommendation about the ROM, but there is still one problem for me:
Should I upgrade the "Radio" first, since in the tutorial you gave to me it is step B. Or is this just a prerequisite to not breaking anything? Are there also different versions?
Regards,
Zuzler

thread moved
now we are all happy

Wow thanks, I also contacted tnyynt for that

Can't remember...

I can't remember if AZTOR's ROM's include the radio. It might be worth flashing a radio first from here. I use Radio v1.09.25.23 (Quad Band) (52.51.25.26H) - no issues at all.
Or, you could ask AZTOR if radio is included in his ROM's if you're really concerned. Personally I'd just flash one first anyway...

Ok, I will ask him personally (just seen hes from Germany, too - might make some things easier)
Thanks again!

How to update android ?

Hello guys, im newbie in roms and all the phones stuff so please dont criticise I have a HTC Desire Z with Android 2.2. My question here is how to update it to newer? 4.4.4 would be awesome, i want newest i can. I found some posts on couple of forums about this but every was like "format, flash, update, boooom done". Can anyone tell me how to do it from begining? I mean how to format it the way it should be, how to flash, what do i need etc.
Also i found this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374927
Is it good? I know i shouldnt ask what rom should i pick, im just asking is it good to use on this phone.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
The second post in this thread will help you understand the initial process
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348266
You need to use gfree to exploit and root if you want radio s-off which is the only way you should root this phone. And be sure to read through all those links to understand fully first, I know it may be overwhelming but it is important.
As for best ROM, we don't make suggestions in xda but the third and forth post will link you to every to available. Gingerbread runs the best overall but there are many ICS and jb ROMs that work almost as well (some will say better) and KitKat has come a long way where many will find that it suffice for daily use.
You'll have to try a few, make backups, try a few more to see what works best for you
If you get stuck somewhere just ask in that thread and many are there to jump in and help
Best of luck!

Kay so i downgraded my phone with fre3vo and rebooted, everything was fine. Now the guide says i should head back to official rooting guide on wiki but the problem is i cant root it now. At downgrading it worked with no problems but now i just cant do it. Can anyone help please?

You will have to be more specific

Okay i did it and it works now i just misunderstood few things there

Help to upgrade with gt-i9082

This is my second post. I was pointed to this relevant section of forums/
I am sorry if I am asking something I should not. I am not a technological guy, so I need some help and patience.
My wife has an old gt-i9082, it is at android 4.2.2. I think it is around 3 years old.
I would like to upgrade it to a better version because the cellphone system are already very slow and some app are not working anymore.
A friend told me it is possible upgrade to android 5 (or better), since the cellphone are not at warranty anymore, but I do not know how to do it.
It is a dual sin phone (I do not know if this is important), and also I do not worried if I lose all stuffs. I already back her agenda and some significant photos. I just want a new better operational android system.
So, I am asking for a step by step guide to do it, if it is possible. If it already exist, please point me to the relevant thread.
Again, sorry for my lack of understand.
Thank you very much for your time.
