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

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!
Hey everybody.
You will have to excuse my ignorance and please don't assume any knowledge.
I recently got a HTC HD2 from T-mobile, with its own version of the ROM, and I have to say the problems with the weather application (and others) are beginning to get on my nerves.
While I could rant about how T-Mobile (UK) has managed to more or less damage an otherwise perfectly functional phone, I will instead ask for your help.
My brother uses a HD2 with a different network, and because of this has the "generic" ROM. I'd like to be able to install the same thing on my phone and still be able to use the t-mobile internet and mobile contract.
I've tried installing the generic ROM upgrade, but it won't allow me apparently due to the fact that t-mobile has some proprietary thing on my phone.
If you can help, please do. Like I said before, please don't assume any knowlegde or understanding: I need any help you give in the most simple terms you can bring yourself to use (I've tried reading other threads, and I've been completely overwhelmed by the jargon and things I don't understand).
Also, t-mobile have been no help whatsoever.
thanks in advance

install hspl from the hspl sticky thread in the rom development section, download the official rom of your choice from the Leo official roms sticky thread, instal hspl, then flash the rom using usb. Job done.
oh my goodness. That simple.
Didn't solve my problem, but hopefully its a step in the right direction
Hi Frinds my phone model num is t3320
i want to know that
all touch2 rom is compertabel for my device???????????
if not then how i update my phone rom??????????????/
Difference is that your phone does not have 3G or GPS. No reason why custom Rom's should not work.
So to flash a new Rom back-up your current Rom (see specific thread), apply hard SPL and select the Rom you like.....
Have fun.
Actually, one of the best ROMs I found here is based on your model. This one : New [ROM] [6.5.3_23541_WWE_Radio_3.53.25.20], uploaded by TangerineTractor. It's awesome and I recommend it to you. I'm using it now and it has only minor bugs that you/I can live with and although my model is T3333 after I flashed this ROM, my device says T3320 but everything works well. Try it!
You need to Hard SPL before you can install new ROM
But... there is no Hard SPL for T3320 until now
I already try T3333 hard SPL from Jockey on my T3320... but it not work!

and there is no possibility in near future because i am coordinating with Jockywilson for the HSPL from last 10 DAys and finally failed to use HSPL
HSPL
But the HSPL has worked for me .... well I know its funny but did at the very first go. For my system config details - visit jockey's thread.

Hello All,
As for Addicted2Xda, the HSPL worked for my device (T3320) too & that too in first go.
I dont know much about these things & this is the first device that I own. I verified the procedure & my device in the tri-color screen reads 1.28.Hard on the LHS side. So i believe that HSPL has worked. The only way to confirm that this works is to load a custom ROM(which i am ready to load) but before that I would like to
1. Backup my current ROM (i.e. the original one from HTC so that in event of any issue, i can claim warranty)
2. In case the custom ROM doesnt flash or work, I can load the original one.
Now I, dont know the procedure, requirements, pre-req on how to do it & hence I would like your expert help in this matter. I am ready to do it, its just that i dont know how to do it & I would like to learn.
So is it possible, for someone to post the stepwise procedure to
1. Backup the current ROM.
2. Load the custom ROM.
For our device Model T3320. I also have a reason to specify "our device Model T3320" in every request simply becaue I, have read most of the thread there & found out that there is much misleading information about this device T3320 here. For e.g. in some threads you find that the HSPL is not working in some you find that it works & other things.
My aim (request or what ever you call it) in humble manner, is to make it easy for guys like me (who are new / dumb at this) to use this beautiful forum, in much better manner.
It is possible that, my aim has already been achieved & I am doing something wrong (probably since I have not read all the rules), in which case I am due for a butt-whipping from all the senior members, which i am ready to take, provided, it becomes easy for guys like me to use this forum.
Long post, you all can thrash me for it & i would gladly take the heat, but please consider my reqeust.
Regards,
H.D
Great job HD.... i am also sailing in the same ship with you. T3320 is my first Windows mobile, there are a lot of doubts and confusions with the device.
Most of the terms used in this site are complete jargons to me, it would be great if someone comes forward to enlighten newbies like us.
If you have Hard SPLed your phone, just make sure that your boot loader shows 1.28.Hard (meaning you have successfully HSPLed your device). Luckily you do not need to backup your original ROM as it is already available in the Roll up thread . WWE Asia is your ROM (if you are an Asian that is ).
if your HSPL shows as 1.28.Hard, you can flash any custom ROM you feel like. Just give a few of them a shot, you are bound to like one of them .
Once I flashed my ROM with a custom ROM, never bothered to revert to the Original crap, be it my Vox, my Gene or my Mega.
BTW if you are really interested to know the methods / jargons (well some of them), just pm me and I will be glad to help you - but please note that I have a real job, so it will take some time .

Once you hardspl your device, your warranty is void.. unless you find a way to put the original spl back on your device... whether you flash a custom ROM or not is immaterial.
But please note that it is my personal opinion, but:
1. I have a Vox for nearly 4 years now... never needed to send it to service centre... only had to change the battery once... that too last year.
2. I had a Gene for more than 1.5 years and sold it to a friend of mine (who used it for 6 months till he lost it)... without a glitch.
3. Using my touch2, flashed it within 1 month without caring for the world (BTW I am not a millionaire... if I was, I would go for TP2 ).
If you want to try new stuff... you have to take the risk.
Best of luck in enjoying your Touch2 right now... or waiting for the warranty to get over
Hey.. Please, can I anyone Help me out and tell me, is there any way flashing ROM through Memory Card.. I have read somewhere on XDA..
I had HTC GENE(P3400i), And I flashed that many times.. But now I'm using HTC Touch2 (T3320 Special Version).. And I want to flash this too..
My Problem is.. Someone told me that after flashing my Touch2 I won't be able to play FM Radio.. Is it TRUE.?
And Please tell me the Procedure by which I can safely Flash my ROM..
First, make HSPL to hack the phone, second choose a ROM from all of the roms in this section, you can put it via data cabel.

I never knew my model was 3320, I used jockey's HSPL, been using custom ROMS from here, all works fine
Hello folks,
I just have a simple question which I can't answer myself and I couldn't find an answer in short time here either.
My Touch HD is restarting all the time and I intend to send it back to my provider (o2 Germany). Now I tried to restore the ROM to stock.
The Bootloader shows the following:
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
When I got this phone I had a 1.14 ROM installed, but O2 Germany provides a 1.57.xxx ROM on their homepage. I believe that this new ROM bases on the 1.54.000 SPL Bootloader.
So my question is: Does this information lead to the fact that I used custom ROMs or could this be manufacturer default?
Greetings and thanks in advance,
Benjamin
Have you thought about the possability of before sending the device back to the store, flashing a stock ROM? I am sorry about your specific question, I dont have that detailed know-how your looking for, but here is the link to the HTC Support page with the lates EU stock ROM.
I hope that someone else can answer your Q or that flashing a stock rom could be a work-around for you.
can you please help i got htc desire hd i would like to update over air the new FIRMWARE 2.3.5 ?
I have rooted my phone with aahk software all I did was just run the program NO custom firmware that's it and it unlocked my phone
can I update over air the firmware 2.3.5 I don't mind if loose the rooting
THANK YOU
OTA updates are dependent upon your network releasing them... so you'll have to wait, or perhaps contact your network to see if you can get an eta out of them. You also might have to get AAHK to 'return you to stock RUU' in order for the OTA to even kick in.
...however, since you've already used AAHK anyway, you have the option of flashing your '2.3.5' roms of different flavours, or even the 4.0.x ICS. Though bear in mind that flashing the latter would give you an early development rom that probably won't be as stable nor have the complete set of features as say... some of the more established gingerbread roms.
Were I in your shoes, I'd just flash the custom roms that will suit my individual needs, no rom is better overall... its literally 'horses for courses' in regards to what's currently released.
Just do your homework and read as much as you can in regards to the rom you want to choose, as well as the RADIO/RIL/Kernel you want to pair it up with.
The 'search' tool here in the forum is quite good for doing this, and the stickies... though not updated frequently, does have the important threads still linked.
Good luck and happy hunting. ^_~

Downloading an OTA can mess up your phone since you have rooted, so technically its S-OFF. In theory you could download the OTA and it MAY appear as available but hearing mixed replies on similar topics, the results vary from returning the phone to stock to seriously messing with it.
I'd do what the man above me suggested, browse through the dev section and stickies, use search and read as much as you can about custom ROM's. Some are seriously amazing and will give you more then any custom ROM can offer.
Good luck.
thanks
thank you guys for your advice
where can I get custom files for HTC desire HD t-mobile UK
also if anyone know how can I fix my GPS it takes long before I can get signal
that's why I wanted to upgrade the firmware IF I CAN FIX THE GPS I DON'T MIND STAYING ROOTED PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
...you're supposed to do the research yourself.
However, since I'm in an ok mood, here are links to the roms you might want to flash.
BTW, assuming you ran the Advance Ace Hack Kit successfully, you're phone is now technically SIM unlocked... meaning you don't have to get 'custom files for HTC desire HD t-mobile UK' ...so all the ROMS i've linked below will work on your phone.
Note - General direction on how to flash these ROMS/RADIO/RIL/KERNEL:
download the ZIP to your SD
reboot your phone to recovery by shutting down, once its completely shutdown... press and hold vol-down and power, then choose RECOVERY on bootloader menu
choose 'install from SDCard'...
find the ZIP file of the rom and let it to its thing.
However, PLEASE READ the thread's first couple of post, and consult the support threads which the ROM links to in order to get a more detailed info on installing and confirguring the rom
Sense 3.5 ROMS:
RCMix3D 4.0 Runny
EREBUS XL3.5
Virtuous Affinity 1.48.0
Sense 3.0 ROMS:
Android Revolution HD 6.3.1
Beatmod FlyerDOM V2.0
RADIO & RIL thread
(YOU MUST FLASH THE RECOMMENDED RADIO FOR YOUR ROM, or at least the recommended one on the 1st post of the radio thread.
YOU MUST ALSO FLASH THE MATCHING RIL TO THE RADIO IF YOU'RE USING A SENSE ROM!
Kernels (flash the one that 'feels' ok in regards to your phone performance):
LORDMOD (latest is V5.0)
KLquicksall RCMix3D (Latest is V12, but most stable is V11.1v2)
...there'd be more, so search the forums for them... the above is the most popular ones.
For everything else, please consult this thread... or perhaps use the SEARCH function of the forum.
...I think that's enough spoonfeeding from me... =P

Hi Basehumax, here's a fix for ur GPS:

I'm in the Uk myself and can confirm it worked for me. I'll get a fix in 5-10 secs outside and 10-15 inside. If that doesn't work there's also this fix, but it's a hardware job and will take some phone dismantling:
