i have o2 latest rom uk version i read all the time about imate rom is it worth upgrading to 1.66 imate rom or stay as i am and what are the differences in both roms.
thanks hobbit
id just stay with o2s rom to be honest mate saves killing your machine if it happens like.
just wait till theres a easy way to change roms like with the xda1
not worried about killing the machine as its insured against anything including spare parts :wink: lol whoops ive lost it :wink: just want to know which one is best and the difference in software if anything
lol all is good then lol , i dunno how you do the s/w updates to other carrier roms ect... and havent a clue about which is best at the mo im using the new o2 rom which i think is alrite but then again i never used the one that was on it 1st as soon as i got my xda 2 i upgraded it lol
Well basically I have been with O2 for several years, but am now going to change over to t-mobile for the cheaper GPRS.
I have never changed a rom or anything on my XDA (as it is only about 2 weeks old) and have no idea about anything at all. The Wizard will accept the t-mobile sim already but i thought that it would probably be best to change the boot screen as well. Would I need a t-mobile rom on my xda for all of the t-mobile features to work? One of their customer services guys told me that it should be compatible, so please could somebody advise me what to do and maybe give some instructions.
Thanks very much in advance
Anybody? (This is pretty important to me)
I hate to bump this again, but please can somebody help?
why not just do it anyways. and while you're at it, flash a wm6 rom!

the fact that so many people are running custom roms should answer that question for you
I have no clue about flashing roms though. So can somebody give ame straight answer, if I flash a t-mobile rom then will all of the O2 crap go and be replaced by t-mobile? Also, will it actually work?

yes, but it may get replaced with t-mobile crap
in layman terms it works like this - Microsoft make a rom for a device, they give it to the sellers (o2 cingular vodaphone etc) who add all the rubbish which makes the roms so heavy and slow but also include usefull things mms settings
EDIT:you can add gprs/mms settings to a custom rom, there are cab files in the ftp site somewhere
hey there im going to be buying another hd2 but this one is going to be tmobile branded..im wondering if theres any roms out there that make the phone close to the unlocked versions from europe and stuff?
like i would just want the useless tmobile apps to be gone while still retaining the stock windows mobile like on the shipped european/asian devices such as 1.66 wwe.
thanks..
Dude, you'll want to look around and flash them to find the one that works best for you.
I dont know how many people have branded desire HD's or how many would like a way of debranding there devices.
So this post if for me to see there is a need for such a thing.
So if there is enough people needing this i will look into if it can be donre and write a guide.
:-D
Please do a guide to help me remove the Vodafone bloatware on it
What can be done though at the moment besides from visionary temp root and pm disable?
if anyone with a branded device wants to test this method befor hand please join IRC : freenode channel #DesireHD
You will need a USB mircoSD card reader.
And THIS rom
Did you have a win? I also need info on removing my vodafone bloatware!! =)
i didnt think they had any branding on them? Im on t-mobile UK and cant see anything related to them.
Moved to Themes and Apps for now. Will keep an eye on it.
Cheers,

I'm definitely keen on getting rid of Vodafone bloatware (Australia) but I would like the option of reverting back to my current ROM simply because the warranty becomes void, the moment I flash a new ROM.
I haven't got a DHD, but i'm very interested in it. If i'm going to buy it, i think it will be branded (Vodafone GER). I don't know if the branding will disturb me, but i think updating an unbranded phone is still easyer and faster(!) (because downloading the update OTA or from HTCs page) as waiting for an update from the provider.
If you'll going to write the howto for unbranding DHD, please also mark some notes how to get the phone in delivery of condition (saving branded ROM a.s.o.).
A guide to debranding the Desire HD would definitely be good. Not that I need it, but for those with branded phones, it would be excellent.
T-mobile UK are totally unbranded! Which is awesome, it was too much to hope that they were unlocked as well but hey ho.

Here's your guide :
You just have to replace MMC1 by MMC2 and at the end just install your RUU and that's all.
I have debranded my SFR Desire HD last night using this.
Does this remove the SIM lock too, if you flash an unbranded ROM?
I don't think, but just haven't tried yet.
No worries there. Was glad with it till I realized the vibrate was pooched do I have to get a replacement... -_-

Hey, we're not sitting on a fence just waitung for someone to post
Concerning your question- why does it have to be a stock rom?
There are cooked roms which are much better than any stock one.
Most of them do come in english.
Aside from this- if your ameo isn't cid unlocked you may not even be able
to install a stock rom even if you find one as you would need some english rom
fitting to the presumed dutch cid.
Maybe you take your time and take a look at the unlock- and romupdate related
threads you can find around here.
