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!

Hi all,
I was wondering for a while now, I followed the Unlckr guide on how to root my HTC Hero, but I didn't really get when the rooting stopped and the cooked ROM began.
So, breaking it down: -
What is the Cyanogen Recovery Image for? Is that just so we can enable the custom ROMs?
Putting in the new ROM, does that then mean my phone is then rooted? If I put in another Stock ROM (as I still haven't found a Donut update for Hero anywhere yet), will it be unrooted again?
What does Rooted mean anyway?
Many thanks if you can answer any or all these questions, I'm eager to know what I actually did
Take it no one knows or cares to clarify?
You might have better luck if you post this in the Q&A section. However, I reckon you'll find the answers you're looking for if you use the search.
Hello all!
I hope to heck that I'm posting this in the right forum. Anyhow, I'm really confused as to the ROM upgrades. I've searched the internet and they've confused the heck outta me. Now, I'm more confused than when I first started. So far as I know, the ROM upgrades help streamline the speed and efficiency of the HD2. Are there any other benefits? By me downloading and installing this new ROM, is it going to mess with my warranty? Will it make my phone crash more? I'm sorry for all the stupid questions. What I am looking for is for someone to maybe email me directly and teach me to "walk".
I would greatly appreciate any and all help from you guys. And again I apologize for the stupid questions.
Thanks!

Follow that step by step. Yes it does technically void your warranty but is easy to revert back to factory just in case you need to send it in. The advantages of a cooked rom is they typically are faster and more stable than the stock rom.
the rom version isn't really what voids warranty, (unless you have a particularly outlandish rom installed) After all, the roms are all pretty similar, and all based on stock roms.
Most of the changes 'could' have been done with cabs and clever tweaking.
The deal breaker is HSPL. send a phone back with hspl installed and they will laugh and tell you it will cost £200 for a new mainboard because yours is damaged by 'unlicensed software'
Hey everyone, I have been looking all over the place for information on how to back up my current O2 Rom on my o2 atom life before I actually upgrade.
I did check out the wiki, and so I ask these questions XD:
is there any other way of backing up the rom aside from using the one in the wiki?
and if it is, how will i be able to use it again when I want to reflash it? :O
Thank you for helping, I'm really just new to upgrading roms and I really want to make sure I could go back to my former settings and whatnots before I actually try to upgrade (and hopefully not fail. Being a noob on these things is just too scary. XD)
Thank you again, and I so hope anyone could help
Hello everyone!
I want to upgrade my Leo from original genuine WM 6.5 to WP 7 ROM. It's first time I would be flashing a ROM onto my phone, so I wanted to ask you few questions...
I googled about this many times, but I'm still not sure about some things. I'll welcome all answers and advices.
So here are the questions I'd like to clear out:
Which ROM should I use for my Leo? There are lots of ROMs and I'd like to get the most recent one (best would be with NoDo update)...
Is there a guide or tutorial or something like that? I understand I have to install first some flasher and using that flash the ROM into the device... Is that right?
How is the new ROM going to affect the performance? I read somewhere that at the end it could be faster than HD7 (which is basically the same HW only without 2 buttons)
Is the new ROM going to void my warranty? Is there a way back (to virginize it like e.g. iPhone)?
What's with the XBOX Live services? Is there a working way around?
Thanks in advance
hi all newbie here i need to debrand my htc touch hd from orange any ideas which is the best way to go?
thanks in advance
moved, this is not development, it is a question.
the best way to get from a software branded version to a stock htc version, is to flash either an unbranded stock rom or a customized cooked rom from the forum here.
stock roms can be found on shipped-roms.com and necessary tools and instructions on how to flash a rom, including first unlocking the device can be found on the blackstone winmo development forum (where you first posted this question).
if you have never flashed a windows mobile device before, it might take a lot of reading to get prepared, but it is worth it. also, if you decide to go through with it, any possible questions you might have, please post them here before attempting to flash, because it is always easier to clarify things in before, than restoring an (almost) broken device afterwards.
