Hey guys new to the forum - i've had a HD for about 3 months now and done nothing with it just used it as i would a nokia 402! lol I chose this over the iphone simply because of the keybad option when typing texts etc.
What cool things can be done to make my HD better?
My HD runs slow all the time -it's not loaded up with junk or any files at all really and yet it runs slow when the hardware specs suggest it shouldnt. I'm on orange (so prolly got a bs orange rom, right?)
Can you get cool games for the HD for when im at work like you can the iphone?
Many Thanks.
I recomend having a look in the ROM dev forum and wait until dutty releases his 3.9xt ROM.
If you flash this rom you will think you have a new phone!
Read up on crackwhores guide to flashing as i'm guessing you will have the stock spl.
So you have to flash an official HTC 1.54 ROM first. Then flash duttys.
I may sound complicated but it really isn't.
Also, if i were you i'd use USPL as appose to HSPL as the latter voids your phone warranty!

so you think i should wait for a new release from Dutty?

Well he's got 3.8 out atm but said he'll upload 3.9 tonight so ye, i'd wait a day tbh.
Also, there have been some problems with people using backup&restore programs for sms, contacts and things so if you can sync your calendar and contacts using outlook that would be even better.
His new ROM will also be UC compatible which is going to make installing all your main cabs the easiest thing in the world
Jake
Flash some different chef roms and add a little spice to your device!
are there any decent games and things like there are for iphones?

Are you using search because your questions have been answered many times all over this site look above and type what you want in search you will be surprised by what you can learn or you can check the wiki as well they even list what works and what doesnt including games
Read all you can about flashing and then, try new ROM's.
My ROM if Laurentius L26, and I'm really satisfied with it...
Also take a look on apps to install...
Im dim.... what's flashing and how would I load duttys new rom version, can I break my phone in doing so??....sorry
Yeah sorry i made this thread because it's quick and easy to keep an eye on - i'm at work you see and they wouldnt appreciate it if i was on one site for 50-60mins searching around, i perhaps should have stated that in my first thread. Sorry.

Mate, the best thing to do is search and learn...
Flashing is changing the ROM (software) of your mobile. You can change the stock ROM by a lot of cooked ROMs that are posted here at the site.
But until you decide on what to do, read carefully all threads to understand how it works...
i've flashed it to Dutty's XT Turbo 3.9... it's pretty nice. I was just asking about the gsensor games lol
there are plently.. at least for starters u are in the right forum !!!!
search around look around.. ask questions at QnA
you can take a look at my humble blog too... there are some useful freewares made by folks here mentioned there too
I want that Dusk Manila theme, not entirely sure how to do it though and cant find any info on it Any shed any light on it for me?

Try a search in the Themes, Applications and Software forum
everyone whos asking for these .cabs for swype, facebook tabs for sense and so on should take a trip over to the ROM Development forum. most of the things people are asking for in these posts are already cooked into the roms. they tend to run a lot better than the stock roms and have updates coming out on a weekly basis. my personal favorite is the Energy series hence my signature but i suggest that you guys check all of them out you never know what youll like.
Not everyone likes to flash roms , and not all roms have every little cab you require in them, hence asking for them and theres no central place for them all either
And unless im mistaken, i also use an energy rom, but swype is not built into that!
Yes, but all people would have to do is search. I have also seen a lot of posts requesting it.. and if people would take a look at the stickied thread they'll find it in the second post.

That's funny. Swype is built into my Energy ROM. Don't know which one you're using... It also has a nice HTC skin on it.

im sure not all of the links dont work, there has to be .cabs themselves posted somewhere out there. i dont usually respond to repeats of requests because theres tons of those threads out there but i guess i will for now on because a number of apps that are or were on this site are saved to either my sd card or computer

Asking for, or posting links or files for Swype is now considered warez on XDA. Do a search elsewhere as it now earns you vacation time from the mods.
Can someone take the white background off this icon?
Here yah go...I think it should work alright.
I wrote a how to a couple of years ago on how to do this...Its posted on ppcgeeks. In one of the threads me and caddieguy did for the HTC Home customizer icons.. We did all the sports icons for HHC... Try and find it..
Its pretty easy and if you use GIMP its free.
EDIT: I just looked for where I posted the tutorials. I couldnt find them. If you want to look more maybe you can find them. If not I know I have them on my external hard drive which is connected to my ps3 at the moment. If you want them Ill pull em from there and post them here.
Thanks so much! And yes feel free to post it here, and i'll try to do it myself from now on!

Thats absolutely cool with me. If thats the case though let me go through the tutorials a little and take out/change some stuff since its based on icons/clocks for HHC which I havent used since I changed to manila2D on my mogul. Not sure if the original HTC Home is still used at all. PM me to set something up.

I looked on pocketemu.com too but I couldnt find it. Thats where it was originally hosted since emunutz(creator of HHC) asked me to write them. A couple of years ago the site was down for a while and I ended up attaching the originals in .doc format zipped up in one of the threads on ppcgeeks. Which I couldnt find.
Ill attach the originals here. I did one for the icons and one for the clock. Some of the things only pertain to HTC Home Customizer but thats mostly for icon sizes and file names etc. All of the icon editing stuff would be the same now. The tutorials still have alot of good info in them...By the way what a blast from the past looking at them, I havent opened them for at least 2 years...

Hey guys, so i spent a few hours and set up a new central repository for everything cdma hero.
Roms - Both CM Froyo 2.2 and Eclair 2.1
Apps2SD
Froyo Battery Tweaks
HTC Sync
Recoveries
CM 6.0 Froyo Nightly is posted as soon as it is available.
Check it out, let me know what you think....
http://heroc.frederickcomputers.info
I think we tried this in the past and failed miserably.
Well i will keep it up, and see how it goes. Can't hurt to have a one stop shop for heroc stuff.
Very cool of you I would not mind having a 2nd mirror for my rom.
You should should include the overclock kernels from urushiol's thread. Good work so far, keep it up.

Thanks for the suggestion.
Sounds good to me, you can pop my info in there if ya want, but is there any pre-reqs? (like I am a kitchen user, and modder, not really a dev) but my rom does cater to 'special' needs I suppose, and anyone can use what I got.
SouthPaw!1.5-Final-(for Cellular South users): http://www.mediafire.com/?7ro6qczcoqcxtip
Also just fyi if it saves any time you can take a peek @ my thread in the 2nd post I have compiled a favorable amount of how-to's for my users since most on my carrier are just now getting into the root/rom scene: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731404 and I don't mind if you need to copy/paste anything.
Lovin' the fun stuff videos btw.
And another suggestion is if you would see if the modders/themers would let you grace your pages with their stuff as well.
Was just checking the site, pretty sweet man, very well organized. My two cents of what to add (and this is just anything I could think of):
1) Blue Echo & Red Dawn (by Papa Smurf)
2) cSrOm (by crunchybutternut)
3) Themes section for both 2.1 and 2.2 (in my experience, themes are the hardest to find)
4) Alternative bootscreens for both 2.1 and 2.2
5) Apps that aren't on the Market anymore (e.g., Fancy Widget, Skype Beta, etc.)
Not sure if all of those are even possible, but that's all I got right now. Keep up the great work man.

Ok, i added Blue Echo, Red Dawn, and cSrOm. Themes are started but are going to take some time and a lot of work before it is anything respectable. I am not enitirely sure how i feel about posting apps, don't want to have any sort of legel battles over it. I will look at boot screens once i get done with the themes section.
Thanks for the suggestions, keep em coming guys.
I am toying with the idea of allowing devs to upload their roms to the site themselves, anybody have any thoughts on the subject?

i love that we call our phone the Heroc because were the cdma version
why dont we just call it the Heroic?
Looks like the thread got moved, going to push over more themes today. Still would like to hear from some devs. Like who would want to be able to upload their own stuff to the site.
Redesigned the site, CM 6.0 RC1 is up along with the latest nightlies. Also the uncapped kernel for CM.
I'm expecting my epic any day now
studying the site for the last few days and came across this :
youtube.com/watch?v=GPrcdbIuWaU
does anyone know which ROM this actuallly is?
thanks!
Hey thanks for joining XDA.
Unfortunately I don't know what ROM that is, but I'm sure someone here will come up with the answer.
And just a heads up (not to pick on but to inform) please post future question threads like these in the General forum. The Development forum is for specifically discussing development. I know there are a lot of bad examples already but the more we can prevent the quicker that will change.
Judging by the title, you're asking because it appears to be HTC Sense UI. It unfortunately is not. It's just a "theme". You can tell by the lockscreen and the system info screen he calls up. It's Froyo build DJ29 (which is one of the Froyo build leaks on this forum). You can however achieve this look even on a stock Epic. The weather clock and some of the toggle widgets (vibrate, wifi, etc) are Beautiful Widgets from the market. The dock and calendar widget are part of LauncherPro, also from the market. Both apps have themes you can download that emulate that HTC Sense UI look. The live wallpaper is Nexus Revamped (you guessed it, from the market). Have fun with your new Epic!

Yes. You can install the launcher pro app and the beautiful widgets app and theme them. They do not require root to install/customize.
