Hi all! I have recently installed the myhero rom 1.1.3 with the help of this site and video
http://docs.google.com/View?id=dfnmhnzb_9c3q6kxhj
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xj1EdpYb7M
Me needing a video i think it says something about me not really understanding what you guys do but i think its great and it makes the Magic alot more fun so kudos to all of you!
So the Android 1.6 SDK came out and i want to put it in my Magic. Im worried because im not sure if it is compatible with the myhero rom because it uses android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3.
It would be great help if someone could answer my question and/or direct me to some instruction to get it on (if even possible). Also if it is possible when i upgrade will i lose all my contacts/ apps? (either its supose to do that or i messed up in the myhero rom because when i upgraded i lost all contacts+ apps )
Thanks ahead!

If you don't know much about making Rom's yourself you should wait for a developer to release a cooked rom with donut (android 1.6)
In the android market you can find "ASTRO File Manager" you can use this to backup several things.

Heya everyone,
I have browsed this site before and loaded software onto my P4350 before.
I now have a Touch Dual (Nike), and would like to put the same software on the phone. I got it right a while ago... sort of (some apps still had bugs).
Could someone make it real easy for me and post the link to the latest version THAT WORKS ON MY PHONE.
I don't need footprints.
The issues I had before that might have been fixed in later versions are:
Weather app crashed EVERY TIME you opened it
Opera browser would NOT save the home page
Thanks guys.
BTW... this software f*ing rocks. You guys at XDA and whoever else is working on mods for it are doing an awesome job!
Hi !
1)
First you need you HardSPL your Phone...
Read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355730
And search further on to get Version Hard-1.22.
2)
Afterwards, you need to Flash an Original WWE Rom like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=373452
You NEED to flash this in order to get the newest roms working right !
Maybe, you need to do the HardSPL again after that.
3) Radio
Head here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369502
And get Radio 1.71.x or 1.6x...
4)Custom Rom
Finally, you can flash anything you want, i really like gullums rom as it is fast and stable:

5) Android
If you want to try it, have a look to the Android Thread - And give it a try:

CHEESE N RICE!!!!!!
I dont remember it being that difficult last time!
But now that you mention it my Nike has been rather hot... (radio update not done)
I will religiously follow the steps provided and let you know the outcome.
Thanks for the help.
When I'm running thr RUU.exe I keep getting Error 262....
what am i doing wrong?
Hi,
Can I go ahead and flash the Android 2.2 OS from android developers website? Will it work?

NOT DEVELOPMENT RELATED MOVED TO GENERAL
we have three 2.2 roms:
fyodor 0.7.2c
SP-froyo 2.0
SPQRom 0.4.1
all are very stable but BE AWARE: CAMERA DOESN'T WORK and there are other little bugs that are being fixed...
I did this earlier this week using the manual root method, RA-recovery & fyodor ROM. As long as you read the instructions several times before starting and have all the tools to hand, fairly straightforward process.
BUT there are some annoying niggles that may make you delay. For me, not having handsfree Bluetooth means that I can't use the 2.2 ROM as I spend a lot of time in the car. Similarily, CoPilot doesn't work on 2.2 an ALK have yet to release a patch.
IMHO the 2.2 ROM is miles better on Tattoo than 1.6 (faster, neater, smaller) but does have some outstanding issues that you need to consider before flashing.

Thanks so much for your quick reply, Albert & Maxi.... Well, my phone is just 2 weeks old. I had played around a lot with my HTC elf, which was out of warranty. I am just concerned weather it will void my tattoo's warranty. Also, could you please brief me what else doesn't work apart from the camera. I called up HTC support today and they were not really helpful in tellin me about the update for my tattoo.
According to you both, which is better, 2.1 or 2.2?

Mithun.

I haven't used any 2.1 ROM's so can't comment but when you have rooted & RA-recovery on your phone, you can flash a ROM in a matter of minutes so you can quickly decide which version / variant is best for you.

the last version of copilot works on froyo
anyway in my opinion it's ok to choose between 1.6 or 2.2 but 2.1 is a NONSENSE 'cause camera doesn't work in 2.1 and 2.2 is faster and faster...you can install apps to sd without any patch...

Bro, I also wanted to know whether it will void the warranty since my phone is just 2 weeks old and I have a years warranty. Is there any way I can restore my phone to the original state after flashing a custom rom? I had done that on my elf before.... Where can I download stock rom for my tattoo?

Yup. Just do a backup.
As for warranty, HTC might try to use that as an excuse not to fix the phone. But unless the problem is related to the rom...
Only some specific rom (the ones that do overclocking and such), are actually susceptible of causing hardware problems)
And of course, switch back to stock rom, to make sure the issue you might have is not rom related.

Hi there,
I was just wondering how to install a Froyo Rom (With A2SD Support, and 2.1 Android Version). I was wondering about this because they're saying something about "Radio Versions" and I have absolutely no idea what that means. Is it to connect to your mobile carrier? Mine's Virgin Mobile Canada, does it make a difference? I really need to know, because I can't take my chances with this phone. How do I know what radio versions I need for the Rom? Do I install it like a normal Rom? I also want one that has root access. Does that make a difference? Thanks for the help because I'm really confused at the moment. Thanks.
PS: I've searched everywhere for a 2.1 Froyo Rom but still can't find one, can someone please give me the link? The reason I don't want 2.2 is because the last time I used a 2.2 Froyo Rom I couldn't get reception to my carrier (Virgin Mobile), and I know I did something wrong, so I'm asking for advice now. Thanks.

Hi, firstly, please read as much as you can before posting
Now, the reason you can't find 2.1 Froyo is because there is no such ROM. Froyo is a codename for Android 2.2 ROMs, just as 2.1 ROMs have codename Eclair etc...
So if you want Froyo, you want 2.2.
As I have told you in the other thread, read stickies in Development. To get root access, you have to root first - not sure if you have done that, but anyway, read some howtos on rooting any other techniques and you will find out how to fllash a ROM.
Abot the Bell canada thing, I think you are on WCDMA there,which means you have to have a Radio for that - that's what the fuzz is about(about different versions of radios and their receptions). But I'm not sure if you even need a special radio, you'll have to find out in development.
Here are STICKIES
Good luck!
Hi.
I'm a bit in doubt on which verion of Android is on my GT540.
I think it's 2.1, but want to know if it's correct.
Please see the link here:
Oh, I'm so new, that I'm not allowed to show links :-(
I then do it this way:
Firmwareversion: 2.1-update 1
Kernelversion:2.6.29
If it is 2.1, and I want to upgrade, shall I then follow which versions ?
I mean is there an order of hierarchy ?, and if so how does that look ?
Yes it seems you are running official LG 2.1 rom. If you wish to update it you can jump directly to any rom you like 2.2 2.3 or 4.0 . Just follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224747
@-Grift-
Hi and many thanks for your reply. Was good to know that
Another matter if you can tell me it ?.
I have installed Navdroyd, and SVOX.
I have my mother language to work ok IN SVOX, but not
when I run Navdroyd.
Should the GT540's built in text-to-speech be deselected, and if so how.
Sorry i dont use Navigation or Text to speech apps
All ok and understood
Maybe another one that knows about it will jump in.
Thanks anayway
Yep im sure someone will
IT IS 2.1
I m sure it is 2.1
Hi guys, I'm pretty much a newbie to this all and was wondering if anyone could help me get my HD2 back to its original settings of being on WM6.5.
I recently upgraded it to 2.2 by NAND ( no idea what that means) but I was successful on getting it up and running on android.
Im now trying to be more adventurous and see if I can boot the rom to 4.4 but just for safe measures, I'd like to know how I can get the system back. Also if anyone can post the links of what Id need to download to get it to 4.4 and how I need to do that from 2.2 would be great. I don't know if I could just upload another android version on top of the 2.2 or if I would have to remove that first.
Thank you in advance

In future search before posting. To flash a higher version of Android (although 4.4 doesn't exist yet and probably never will) check out the guide in my sig. To flash a stock ROM just download one from the HTC website and flash the RUU in the bootloader.
I tried looking for previous posts that would hep, but this stuff is completely going over my head and I am still determined to get my HTC on an upgraded android version. What android version would you recommend? anything more up-to-date than 2.2 would be great (with everything working, I have read posts where some people have had problems with the camera not working)
I have had a look on the HTC website and they no longer support HD2 :-/ How can I restore it? *confused* I'm a complete newbie and a noob, yup both, but I will not be giving up
Further guidance would be great.
I think a JB ROM would be good if you want functionality and the latest version. If you want stability then 2.3 is probably best. The only real solution is to try a few ROMs out and see what you like best.
