*beware before downloading 2.1 rom*

just so you know in case you don't know, there is some problems with the rom and as of right now (unless i'm mistaken) there is now way to take the rom off.
And with the new possibility of rooting i saw wait for rooting your eris or just get the nexus one

The Rom works fine.
There are NO major issues with rom version 0.2 or 0.3.

And if your phone is rooted, you will probably find a new 1.5 ROM on her soon based on the original stock. So you can flash a new ROM. Assuming you are talking about the rooted 2.1 and not the leaked one.

what rom would you prefer because the rom(125.707.1) I have is not listed? should I get the most recent one?
salamat parekoy!

If you bought the unit from the Philippines, it should have 2.1 update-1. If its not in the releases in the site, you should just get the latest instead.
Goodluck, pare.

Yup, you're right. Bought it from the phil. and it has the 2.1 update-1. I'll just get the RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.37.405.1_Radio
Maraming salamat, parekoy!

hi guys... any hints on when the official Froyo update for our Wildfire will be coming out?
I'm quite disappointed with the device as I have compared it with the Galaxy 5. The Galaxy 5 performs better and is able to run games without lags.
I wonder if the update will improve the performance of the Wildfire.

HI! I'm wondering if there's any way to downgrade Motorola Defy to its stock 2.1 eclair? Upgraded to Froyo and I'm a bit disappointed. Fellow Filipino here.
EDIT: oops, sorry, wrong thread.

[Q] Stock rom

Hi there!
For the mytouch 4G phone from t-mobile, it doesn't come with vanilla android (the stock android O.S).
So, once rooted, is it possible to flash it with the Stock Android 2.2 O.S? That does not have T-mobile's junk? If so, where or how can I find it?
I came upon several links, but wasn't certain. Also, what does it mean by RUU rom?
thanks!

I have no idea what RUU to be honest, never used one but I think it's the factory image that's used to bring phone back to stock, not sure if there's one for MT4G
There's no official vanilla 2.2 rom for this phone. The closest thing you can have is CyanogenMod. 2.2.1 is in RC2 stage and is very stable. 2.3 (gingerbread) is in unofficial alpha stage. It's very stable (as far as people say) but has it's bugs and there no official support from CM for it, only community. All other roms out there are sense based. All roms are in Development section.
Obviously, you need to be rooted to flash any of those.
Good luck.

RUU = ROM Upgrade Utility. It is essentially the rom that ships with the phone. You are correct in saying there is no true vanilla Android ROM. OP's best bet is to go with CM as you suggested as it is Vanilla Android with some features added and closest to pure android you're going to get.

[Q]Reverting back to stock rom

I know that san francisco has got 2.1 eclair rom which is relatively slow compared to froyo. I mean really slow + froyo allows the user to install apps on sd which is a big advantage when you only got 1xx mb internal memory. So i would like to ask that is there a way to revert back to official rom (2.1) when the official update comes or once you install custom 2.2 rom, there's no turning back.
I used to own other android phones and what i know is that some roms are non downgradable, is it the same case with san franciscon? or you can just flash 2.1 official rom over 2.2 custom rom whenever you want? or do you have to keep nand backup and all that?
EDIT: my bad, please move it to general section !

Yes, you can flash 2.1 back whenever you want, unless you upgraded your phone from gen1 to gen2.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
am i missing something? what's gen1 and gen2?

gen2 are phones which came with 2.2 preinstalled. You can upgrade gen1 to gen2 (there are instructions on modaco forums).

But you can't get back to GEN1 afterwards (you can but it messes IMEI up) And only a little selection of ROM's work On GEN2

Upgrade Android OS

My MyTouch 4G is running Android 2.2.1, can I upgrade it to the latest version of Android?
How?

Easy go to cyanogenmod.com and search for your phone then go to wiki and find the guide to root first and then install gingerbread....

HTC has not released an official OS upgrade for the MyTouch 4G yet, you're stuck with Froyo (android 2.2.x) for now.
If you don't want to wait for HTC's release, you can root the phone, turn S-OFF in your bootloader, and flash a clockworkmod recovery image. Then you can flash custom ROMs made by developers outside of Google/mobile carriers/handset manufacturers. Many of them are based on Gingerbread (android 2.3.x) source code. All that stuff can be found in the Development subforum for this device. I recommend you READ ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING before you attempt anything.
