ahh! wiki ruined my life and all this time i thought my wizard had a microwave in it!
I compiled a massive update to the ROM section of the Wiki. (“LINK HERE”)
All the ROMs are original ship ROMs, no repacks of any kind.
I’ve spent the last two months trying to find all the original ship ROMs however I wasn’t able to find all of them.
Below is a list of the ROMs I haven’t been able to find, and there must be others I don’t know about.
Missing ROMs
Just in case someone wants to help.

Nice
Just got my hd2 today and looking through the boards im confused.
i understand theres new roms, loads of extensions and some critical apps but i dont know where to start.
Could someone please create a new thread thats just for n00bs, that gives an up to date guide for getting the best out of a factory fresh hd2?
im not talking about anything too specific, just the latest (or best.most stable/fastest) rom (and how to flash) and some general guidance as to the most popular apps to install off the bat (theres got to be some commonality there).
thanks guys!
there are at least three sticky guides to rom flashing on the rom development section, the hints and tips sticky in this section is also a first stop.
as to questions like"best rom"..that's a completely subjective question...everyone has their favorite.
course, if you wanna write a new guide no one will complain!
Thinking of posting a new thread? Please read post #2

Thank You and happy easy searching.
as much as the tidy up is great, i truly believe that making the "Complete Leo Flashing video guide" and "how to flash everything" a bit less obvious to find (as these are after all intended for newcomers) is perhaps a little unwise.
ultimatly is up to XDA, but just my thoughts
Great idea: a sticky to collect stickies J
Just an additional thought: can't you guys define subfolders in a forum? Isn't it easier to have in each forum a subforum called stickies?

If we start to notice an upsurge in posts asking how to flash then maybe a flashing guide will be stickied back in the forum but this way cuts down on people saying "well if that one is stickied why cant mine be stickied"..
Dont worry I will keep an eye on posts and act accordingly

A stickie roll-up thread is alot easier to manage. If a subforum called 'Stickies' was created then it would need maintaining and non stickie worthy post being moved which means more work (and none of us wants that)
This way everything can be categorised and more useful info added.

Sounds as a really great idea. Now, all we need are some roll-up threads for roms, clocks, icons etc. So the reader can reduce his workload also (ahum)
bad idea
stickies was looking cool and these are easy for new users ..
specialy hsp thread , vbn files , must be sticky @ all !!!!!

Interesting re-organisation. is this your idea Mark? if yes then you need a promotion.
On second thoughts, it is quite a nicely organised thread for the noob, I like.

No the concept has been around for a long time (originally created by a great mod called DaveShaw I think) I just modified it for the HD2 Forums.

But with this organization you can still easy find those important threads AND (and I like that very much) threads with much or new activity will "stick" themselves back on top of all threads. Very useful when something new is happening in one of those threads.
Appreciate for the compilation

[NEW] What are ROM's?
Hello, i'm quit new here i have my HTC HD2 for about 3 to 4 weeks and i've been looking around this forum downloading wallpapers and apps and stuff, but i don't really know what ROM's are and what they are for. and i have read something about flashing youre phone is that dangerous for the phone?
Dennehy.
Hi,
I have run a guide on the ZTE Blade on MoDaCo right from the initial launch of the device.
The guide at MoDaCo (I can't link because I am too new on this forum) is designed for new users to understand how to get started with custom roms and is also supposed to keep all users up-to date with the new ROMS and changes to existing ROMS.
The Question I have - I know that XDA is a big community and I believe that users would benefit from having access to my guide; should I Link to my guide from a thread here - or Keep a Duplicate thread in this forum?
Here is a non click-able link
android.modaco.com/content/zte-blade-blade-modaco-com/319831/25-dec-installing-the-modaco-custom-rom-from-scratch-and-other-roms/
It's a great guide, I read it a week ago or so when browsing for information on the ZTE Blade and it's modding capabilities and status of current custom ROMs. As an Ubuntu user I especially like the Linux specific step-by-steps
Would love to see it in "XDA markup", meaning "ported" to this forum since it would be easier to follow when you're used to this forum's style. Although, it's very easy to follow due to being well written and constructed, so you'd have to weigh that against the pain keeping two versions in sync.
Dunno what forum policy is regarding just linking to another site/forum, but I think this guide should be sticky somewhere on XDA. It would definitely keep down the numbers of questions and new threads
To all XDA Developers,
I would like to suggest that:
At the first line on every first post on new Development ROM, that is the start of a new post for any New Development ROM (alpha, beta, etc), which is still undergoing test and development,... can you put an advice targeted to new user, who are unfamiliar with this site. Put up an advice there where they should start off. Something that is like these, example for DS5 ROM:
To New Users who own Dell Streak 5, please go this page/post to get you started with familiarizing yourself with flashing new ROM, and finding stable stock and custom ROM for your device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=695
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Dell_Streak
and add probably other pages that might be useful for any eager new users to start reading properly before acting on impulse doing somethings that they are not be doing, unfamiliar and no knowledgeable of. Well, something like that. Would it be helpful to do so?
I actually stumble onto this page after viewing some Youtube clips on upgrade done on DS5, searching on Google and I somehow end up on xda-developers page. I was struggling to find a starting point, what to do first... I read endlessly and jumping onto different forums, sometimes ending up on different device forums (ugh, that's kinda stupid of me, :silly: )... until I discover somehow some pages that would be somewhat my starting points. Perhaps this suggestion might be useful.
Secondly, I found out that, for DS5, I can go to these page to get info on DS5, with stock roms and custom roms:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Dell_Streak
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/ROMs
But, is there such page as well, similar to that, that list out all the Development ROMs ?
Thanks.
open xda via pc there you can find whole list of completed roms with respective recovery and base files
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
There is no list of custom ROMs such as what you find in the wiki with the stock ROMs.
As to the idea presented, it's redundant as there are pinned posts in these forums which cover the same material. You should be reading those posts instead of trying to force developers or chefs to provide a link to the material on every ROM.
