This is driving me nuts - HD2 General

I want the latest version of everything that is default
Manila
Radio
ROM
Current versions
Manila: 2.5.20121412.2
ROM: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio: 2.10.50.26
What I really want to do is install "Max Manila 2.5 Ultimate" but I don't have right Manila version. Basically, I'm confused about everything.

Calm down!!! Most people started like that.
It will not be the last time you see this but the search function is your friend. Everything you could ever need to know is on here.
Also read the rules before you get a roasting, you've already posted a similar thread to this that i was replying on.
Finally take a look at Co0kie's Home Tab instead of Max Manila, i used to use mm but now on CHT, it works much better. There are loads of rom's with CHT cooked in, and also plenty of "clean" roms. I alway start with the most popular or the chef's that have been around the longest.
Now best to go back to the wiki and the stickys on the HD2 forums.

Update Manila

Hi!
Manila: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.66.407.1 GER
Is it possible to use Manila 2.5.2012 without flashing a new ROM? I'd like to use the GTX Sense 2.5 Theme (Sorry, I can't post the link due to the new user restrictions...) and furthermore I have some apps installed I don't want to miss (most important ones: Touch X Faster manila tweaks, Co0kie's Home Tab etc).
The problem is that Co0kie's Home Tab only works with GTX Sense 2.5.2012 release so I want to know if it is possible just to update Manila without the ROM.
Thanks and greetz!
I don't think manila can be upgraded without flashing a new rom.
Have a look at the Rom Development section, there are tutorials and plenty of custom roms!!
Goodluck!
Many thanks for the quick response, I'll have a look there. Maybe I'll try to cook one by myself too )

Looking for Stability ROM

I personally don't mind the appearance of the HD2 as it is atm. I have CHTE and Cookies Mod so happy enough. My HD2 does however slow down and freeze a bit atm. So all in all I'm looking for a ROM that keeps the general appearance the same, retains as much functionality as possible but improves the stability and speed of my HD2. I've had a quick look over the ROMs available here but must admit I'm new and would really appreciate some advice as to which one to go for.
Here are my current specs,
OS - 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila - 2.5.19211619
ROM - 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE
ROM Date - (01/11/10)
Radio - 2.07.51.22_2
Protocol - 15.32.50.07U
Thanks
Artemis
I'm using Artemis V9.0 and I'm very happy about it. The philosophy of the ROM is "stock rom Philosophy" with additionnal functions, best drivers and stuffs available. The cooker Mr Sternas is following the Rom's thread daily and looks very "pro"
I think I might have looked at this one. I did like it but didn't it have the start buttonmoved to the bottom?
Yes but it's not a mod, it's the way the latest Windows Mobile build are...

Try Energy ROM with cooked in Cookie home tab and GTX Sense themed. It's a completely customized ROM... And don't forget to install chainfire's HD2 3D driver patch, it really makes HTC Sense faster
Oh is it. That's a shame. I lie t up top and out of the way
And perform Task 29 before flashing. It's prettty useful
Damn, I haven't a clue what I am doing. Some fun reading to do!
Task 29 + Artemis V.9 is the best of the best rom... very stable !!

Can't decide which rom to flash - Please help!

Here's my software info
OS Version
5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)
Rom Version
2.10.531.1 (82076) WWE
Radio version
2.08.50.08_2
I am having a really hard time deciding on a ROM to flash since it will be my first time. I heard that Energy and Kumar are fast and reliable but I wanted to here from people who already have it installed. What do you commend?
1. What I am really aiming for is something really really fast with not that many bugs, eye candy is not a major factor.
2. Will I have problems installing apps from OpenMarket or MarketPlace? For example...will I have a problem installing Garmin on a flashed ROM?
3. Will I lose MMS settings?
4. Is there a ROM that has Cookie Home Tab updated version 1.7.1?
I would really would appreciate for guidance. Thanks

first time flashing from t-mob. uk - 1.43.110.2 (70315) WWE

Hi.
I'm really sorry to ask, but i need some info on flashing for the first time.
I've read the tutorials, but i can't get my head around them. I've even watched some youtube videos, which have helped abit in terms of visually showing me what i am meant to be doing.
However, i am still not sure what ROMs i should be using. I know first of all i must HardSPL my HD2 which is ok i understand that bit; this then will allow me to flash my hd2 with custom ROMs & Radios, plus prevent this n00b from bricking the phone.
But this is where the problem lies, i havent once upgraded/flashed or whatever since i got the phone back in November, and i am still running the stock rom 1.43.110.2 (70315) WWE from T-Mobile UK - Radio 2.04.50.22_2 - Protocol 15.26.50.07U
I want to be able to get the increased 512MB of ram, so if i can get a ROM that already has that init, that would be great, also do some ROMs come with Radios configured inside, instead of me having to flash a ROM first then a Radio ?
Lastly should i flash with HSPL or HSPL2 ?? :S
Oh and if i were to flash i would go with one of the three from below (ps which would be best suited to me or be ummm compatible with my current stock rom, i know its trial and error, but which would some of you recommend)
ROM ░ 25.05.10 ░ © ★ Miri & DINIK ★ ™ ░ v.17 ░ WWE ░ 2.13.531 ░ 23569
6.5.5|ROM|WWE| Energy Series 23569/21905 |May 28| (something about t-mobile usa compatiblity in thread :s )
oh and Dutty's Leo Sense 2.5 Holy Grail V.1|WWE||Manila_Core_2_5_20121412_0|
thank you for any (no matter how small) and all help, i sincerely appreciate it.
Ali
most cooks recommend flashing the radio first then rom i use the cleanex rom its not 512mb enabled but its v good and stable also leaves you with around 260+mb after flashing so you may not need the extra wee bit of space.if you are in the uk you want a rom with wwe that should work with no issues hope this helps u a little bit
heyy greg1fraser thanks for the reply. some quick questions.
I wanted to know what should i use to flash my HD2 HSPL or HSPL_2 ?
Then do i just use any Radio to flash my HD2, afterwhich i go about flashing the actual ROM itself.
I want to flash to either Radio 2.07, 2.08 , 2.09 or 2.10 and then can i just flash my current 1.43.110 ROM to the new Miri & DINIK - BASE ROM 2.13.531.1 ???
thanks again for any replies.
if you read the rom thread you are going to flash it will recommend the best radio for it i advise listening to them as it makes a big difference i flashed my phone several months ago just using hspl but i believe hspl2 is a newer better way so i would be inclined to say hspl2,please double check b4 as i dont want you harming your device goto the rom thread and stickies they should help you decide what hspl to use,
once you starting flashing rom v addictive i said ill do it once several hundred times later still doing it

Salaam, I would recommend you start with HSPL 166. as for radio and rom go window shopping you'll be spoilt for choice. any way I'm on Tmo uk aswell and I can say that most radio's work well ie signal etc, oh and yes as Greg said HSPL2 is a better way as it allows you to roll back to stock sspl if you need to send the phone back to Tmo for repaires
ps the 512 ram is just a trick as you can make it show up but you cant use it as its reserved for the system, same case as the processor it does not run at its full 1ghz speed but a lot lower.

that's wrong, all parts of that statement are wrong.
ROM's wise, miri & Dinik and NRG both are enabled for 576mb RAM, just use a radio they recommend in the thread, and the bit bout the us hd2 is that there roms will work on the us hd2 as-well so dont worry about that bit, ok so NRG ROM's are excellent but they have all the extra apps installed, for tweaking rotation, etc, the miri & Dinik ROM is basically a Miri ROM they are fast and close to stock ROM but cleaner and faster, and dinik is in there because he has added all his mods in the rom, if you took the time to look in the rom threads you would see, the thing is no one can recommend a ROM to you as its each to there own, I like most on here have used loads of several ROMs and just chose the one that suits you the most

Recommended software/firmware for newly debranded phone

What are the recommended patches, downloads, ROMs (I don't really understand many of the terms Radio etc and can't find anywhere on here that puts it into layman's terms) etc for a stable, nice looking Touch HD that's easy to use?
Current details are:
Operator version: 34.119.1.611
ROM version: 1.19.61.1 WWE
ROM date: 11/25/08
Radio version: 1.14.25.24
Protocol version: 52.64.25.34U
Windows is v6.1
Thanks.
a Rom is basically the operating system on your device. You can compare flashing a rom to installing windows on your PC.
You could try flashing a rom with windows mobile 6.5. I recommend Kwbr's rom with Manilla 2.1 if you want speed. This rom has TouchFlo3D just like the rom you are using now. If you want your device to look like the HD2 you could try a rom with Sense 2.5. bear in mind that Sense2.5 can be a bit slow, since it was designed for a phone with twice the speed of our blackstone.
You can find the Kwbr thread here
If you want to flash a rom, you should start by reading this
Thank you for the info and recommendations. The Manila is probably the one I'd use.
Cheers.
