[Q] Just got HD2 - HD2 General

Just got the HD2, its unlocked and being used on AT&T network. I need to install the cab files to get the MMS working right. Do I need to change the ROM to a different one? I know its the original one. What else do you guys recommend I do/change on it? Should I do any of the updates from the HTC support site? I'm reading the stickys now. Thanks in advance.

In my opinion, best thing you can do is read all about flashing and flash a new ROM and Radio.
Correct me if I'm wrong, it's the US version? If so, don't touch any of the ROM updates on the HTC site. They contain a x.x.51.x radio and it will brick the US version.

WM5 Rogers ROM

Does anyone have, or know where I might be able to find a Rogers WM5 ROM for the TyTN? Is this even possible to find or am I SOL?
I'm looking for one also
Same here.. I would like to have one onhand just in case something goes wrong with my phone and I need to send in for repairs.
I have the WM6 Rom from HTC's official site installed right now (working perfectly by the way), and not too sure if Rogers would support a return if something went wrong.
Thanks
i just got my new rogers tytn today. I was planning on making a backup and updating ROM. if this is WM5 i will post backup file once I figure out how to do this.
That would be awesome as I am sure lots of here would appreciate a backup incase of warranty triggered
Alright... so I am going to get to this tomorrow morning - but I have no clue how to backup the existing ROM. I see a lot on how to install a NEW ROM, but nothing that I can find about the backup.
Can somebody guide me in the right direction so that I don't screw this up! LOL
Thanks

Bump......
If I am not mistaken somebody has already done this.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_DumpedRoms
I will just have to find out how I check which one i have.
Is there somebody that can do this to the Rogers ROM?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoReconstruct
I believe that will do what you need in order to flash the original ROM back onto your device.
My brain is getting sore from all of the reading about all of this. Sometimes I think life would be easier if I wasn't a "geek".
I'm probably a newb to this, but I've managed to create my own rogers ROM and have it successfully work. The only thing missing my own precompiled ROM was the Rogers splash screen and the Radio which is suppose to be 1.42...
If there is somewhere I can upload the packaged Rogers ROM please let me know and I'll quickly upload it for everyone.
the files in the Rogers rom are all RAW files. how do you load it to your device?

ziadsa, thank you very much. I am looking at moving to a new phone, even though the TyTN has served me well, so I want to pass it on in original condition. Of course, I will be pointing the new owner to xda-developers. The next owner may want more from the phone, like I got.

I now have the original ROMs back in place and it works beautifully, but the splash screen still shows PDAviet.
Does anyone know how to correct this and get the Rogers screen back in place? I know this forum has been quiet for a long time, so if I don't get a response here, I will try with a new thread.
Thanks in advance.

latest titan ROM

Sorry I didn't search guys... But real quick, what is the latest Titan ROM & where can I get it? I'm currently running the old 2.14 ROM. What are the advantages of upgrading to the new one? Excuse my noobedness... lol
Oh, my provider is ALLTEL by the way...
Latest ROM
Well the latest TITAN ROM is Sprints 3.35 available at the HTC America page, but if your looking for something to work with alltel you'll have to go see whats been cooked up by folks like DCD or NEX....

You can save alot of time just by doing a search (at least try to do a search first)
Check the Titan Upgrades forum for all the information you need.
Thanks. I looked in there but I was a little confused about if carrier mattered. Thanks!

I really shouldn't do this since I'm a Sprint guy but it doesn't look like there is much Alltel help around here. The steps are fairly simple ( make SURE you double check on the upgrade threads)
1. Write down all your phone info (MSID, etc.) in case you need to reprogram the phone later.
2. Upgrade to the latest Sprint ROM (this is basically to get the new Radio with GPS capability)
3. Load SPL 2.40-olipro bootloader (Extremely important! - DO NOT attempt to load a custom ROM without this bootloader installed)
4. Load any Custom ROM you want (most Custom and Kitchen ROMs will have an Alltel specific ROM)
Enjoy.
(just to be safe, if you are running Windows, I'd do this on a XP machine.)

HELP need Engish ROM!

Does anyone have English Rom for Treo Pro?
Have you tried contacting Palm or Htc?
If you have a legit need, they might be able to work something out for you.
I'm not sure though.
I have problems, my Treo is in french. The Rom is good - fast but in French. Thats only one reason why i want to change it
ok palm did not help
I contacted palm about getting a ROM in english and they told me that they don't do that, you can only have the language that is on your original ROM and there's no way you can change your ROM...
Why do you want to change it?
Can you just change the regional setting?

Pity to say but no, because everything else is in French and i don't known it at all
I'll be able to provide the Sprint/CDMA rom in a few days, would that help you? I'm getting one a few days before launch date, and was scouring the net to find a custom rom. I'm a new WinMo user, so I'll have to research how to get the rom dump though.

Hi! Thanks! I don't know how but I'll try to find a way to convert from CDMA to GSM. When you will have it, put it somewhere.
Thanks in advance!

Before updating my TMobile HD2 via goldcard I would like a backup for the original TMobile ROM. Does such a thing exist and if so can anyone give me a link to the ROM ?
Thanks
Hi, all. I also have same request, if possible. Before updating rom with new sspl I would like to know where to download my original rom, just in case of errors.
I could not find any link for this specific rom, if some of you has some links, please post them.
Thanks!

http://rapidshare.com/files/3082200...dio_Signed_15.25.50.07U_2.04.50.20_3_Ship.exe
seems to be a t-mobile shipped rom. probably u can flash without using gold card.
1.43.110.2
spent ages searching for this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5211436&postcount=18
Thanks! The only problem by now is that both links are for premium users...
there are a set of tools available under "itsutils" these tools allow you to back up ur rom...you'll need to find instructions they prob under blackstone rom section
Try this...
http://www.4shared.com/file/183376263/fc9b664b/RUU_Leo_TMO_UK_1431102_Radio_S.html
I too have a T-Mobile UK HD2 but a tad nervous hearing some problems in another thread. I would be grateful for any positive news from a T-Mobile UK user!

This is a re-release of the botched rom a couple weeks back yes? It looks to be the same size and everything, however after flashing this earlier just to see, it's as snappy on my phone as any custom rom and the battery life is actually insane now.
Like, so much battery now I feel empowered to maybe do some tethering or wifi routing
Updating mine now. The ROM is available on tmobile's site too.
They sent me a text saying an update was available. I hope this fixes all the freezing issues I've been having before I sell this thing and buy an e73.
