Dear all,
I am a new user of wm. Just got this mobile. There are many posts regarding new roms and all, but wondering upgrading or modifying existing mobile rom will have any affect mobile warranty. can someone put some light on this?
thanks
In my opinion upgrading the ROM with anything other than what is supplied as an official ROM upgrade but the manufacturer will void the warranty.

Does anybody have any clue when the official rom for the tytn will be released? I have been waiting for days, I check the website single day and now every hour. I know there are more roms available but i dont want to void the warranty of my phone.
Is there any rom I can put without voiding the warranty?
Please forgive my ignorance and yes I searched through the forum before making this new thread.
am I the only one waiting for this?
Flame bait!
Before your fire suit completely burns through ( ), I'll close this thread and delete it later. If you flash any ROM found through this site that isn't your carriers official ROM, it will technically void your warranty (unless you use HardSPL).
The info you're looking for has been discussed into the ground. Look in the Hermes WM6 forum for more specifics.
Depending on which carrier you use, you could be seeing an official WM6 release anytime between one to several months.
Good luck and read up as much as you can if you want to learn about all the great things you can do your Hermes.
P.S. Start your journey in the Wiki.

Hello everybody.
As I read on the forum the brand new WM 6.1 update is as slow as an usual HTC update. So for people who don't want to lose warranty yet and install a cooked ROM, I think it would be nice to post here the tweaks you used to speed up a little new update. Thank you. If this thread is useless, please delete it.

Excuse my bluntness, but it's rather useless. Most of the tweaks given in the sticky post, tricks and tweaks, work fine for the official rom. Besides that, you can always switch back to the original rom and SPL. Losing your warranty is not an issue.
ps I was a bit to fast, the tweaks are for wm6.0. Perhaps we need a new tweaks and tricks guide... But changing ROM isn't a danger to your warranty still
I took your advice, saying that there's no problem with warranty and installet ITJE's ROM. Waw, how fast it is. Thank you.
Does anyone know if HTC will provide an official upgrade to WinMo 6.5 to TouchHD?
There was some statement about the case?
Was there any difficulty in the approval of this OS for our device?
I don´t want apply a cooked rom, there are many-many-many (thousands) versions here, allways have some detail or problem in each cooked rom.
PS: Each one prefers a particular rom, some report only minor defects, some say the best performance, others say the rom is perfect (but there is never sure who really tested all the features).
In short, the ideal would be an official rom and that is why I put this question.
Best regards!

Hi Guys, Loving the forums,
My first post, please be gentle!
I've searched but can't find how to flash my HD2.
If i flash will I lose my warranty with t mobile? (got it on t-mobile upgrade) If so is there a way of getting old rom back on there without them knowing i did anything? Is the t mobile rom openly available?
Whats the advantage with flashing?
Will I lose all settings when I flash? Cos it took be ages to tweek it!
I have 1.43.110.2 Rom version
Sorry for all these Q's

Yes you can
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
as mentioned that is the tutorial I used. I got my hd2 on t-mobile upgrade too.
lots of benefits (read about them on peoples ROMs)
and I am pretty sure it voids your warranty BUT there is a 1.4 t-mobile stock ROM floating about on here so you can always restore it if you needed to.
Don't know why I couldn't find all that info when i searched, excellent and very well done. I'mthinking of flashing it when I have problems with the stock ROM but as it is I'm pretty happy with it unles someone can recommend a ROM i can't resist!
I read about backing up stock ROM just in case I needed to send HD2 bak to t-mob in future. How do you back it up, same way as data in the tutorial?
Cheers guys, I am a noob but hopefully will pick things up quick!
I am a Andriod user, recently went and got an HTC HD2 for T-mobile USA, I am pretty good at useing Andriod have rooted several devices. With that said two questions:
1) Does flashing/rooting the HD2 void any warranties? I have looked in the warranty guide before asking however the lit in there sucks!
2) Has ant one ported Andriod to the HD2, and what is the success of it?

1) Yes Flashing a custom rom does void your warranty, but it can be reversed.
2) No, It has not been ported yet

Thanks Zelendel!
check the t-mobile support site re: warranty issues. Basically if you brick your phone in a manner that can't be un-bricked, you's kind of SOL unless you were on an official release and going to an official release.
Check the various threads around here to see how to set up your phone in a fashion that maximizes your chance of un-bricking. You'll also find some talk of porting android OS to HD2.
