Hello everybody
I own a unbranded HTC Magic (which you seem to call saphire).
Now, all Magic owners that have a branded / "with google" version seem to be able to either get Donut OTA or from their respective carriers.
But I don't. HTC does not (yet?) offer 1.6 for us with unbranded phones.
Now my question is; a) CAN I install 1.6 somehow? And if yes, what would I have to do?
I'm in no way asking for a step for step solution here, but merely a pointer as to where to look for what.
Thank you so much.
Cheers.
As far as I know, T-Mobile is the only one that has pushed donut, but I'm not exactly sure. Now if you have root, you could flash a CyanogenMod Rom which is donut.

Yes... flash a Donut based ROM.
If you have a newer phone, it likely has a "perfect" SPL which you will have to deal with before you can flash an alternate ROM.
Basic steps are:
1) Get to a engineering SPL, if necessary
2) Load a new recovery ROM
3) Make a Nandroid backup of your existing "factory" ROM in case you ever need to go back
4) Flash a Donut based ROM of your choice.
If you want a solid, fast, no problems ROM I would recommend RAv1.6.3H. If you want pretty/bells and whistles kinda ROM then look at the Sense based ROMs. Eclair (Android 2.0 ROMs will be coming shortly).
Definitely the way to go if you want the new releases as they become available instead of waiting for your carrier to decide to release them.
Thank you so much.
I now have a working 1.6 on my phone. Yay
For those that, like me, don't really see through all this stuff, there are two nice instructional step by step videos for the Magic on theunlockr.com
(Only thing I forgot was to make a nandroid backup...but luckily I won't need it as everything works perfectly.)

You have a really outdated recovery so get the latest Amon_RA recovery for you device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530492 (This link is for magics but you can find the device that you need in the first post)
I would recommend MLIGN Hero ROMs, KingKlick Hero ROM, or SenseHero. There is a little thing called searching so please do.
ok so i did some searching and found that using the 'better terminal emulator' is a faster way of flashing the recovery image but i have to pay for it....so is there another way? (by the way sorry for the questions i feel bad making you explain so much)
someonee.?
You can just use terminal emulator (free market download) to flash the recovery, but personally, I just do it through fastboot (if you have an engineering SPL you can too). No you don't need to change your recovery to change roms, but it's good to have the latest version (as of now, Amon Ra's 1.6.2 is the newest, check the link posted by UberMario).
ook so checked out some sites, it showed different ways on how to install MLIGN 3.3 so i just gave up and it was confusing. but i want to try this fast test 3.0 out instead. so i used sapping to put my phone back to 1.5 ( as in no roms or anything ). what should i do in getting fast test 3.0? ive checked some sites but they only show how to do on G1 not on a mytouch 3g. so can anyone give a link(s) on where to go to start out?
i tried searching some info but either the instructions werent for a mytouch 3g or the intructions werent clear. ( Most sites would be explaining the whole process in like 3 sentenses, its so dumb)
Go with Super D 1.9.3.
cyanogenmod ..the best balance of speed and stability...
also please please please read up a little more before you start flashing.. dont want to see you back here saying you have a bricked phone..
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Main_Page
more specifically see here (under HTC Magic)
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Main_Page#Upgrading_from_Vanilla:_Installing_your_first_mod
and since your running a mt3g make sure to follow the directions for 32B
if you cant follow that guide you shouldnt bother with custom roms..
look for "android terminal emulator" in market...it actually allows you to type numbers in the terminal!! (OMG!)

CM is best
personnaly I found using android SDK the easiest of all since you can modify your phone directly from your computer. instead of typing on that little keyboard of android.
Hi,
I have bought a brand new HTC Wildfire and am awaiting for it to be delivered. It is on Vodafone (uk).
I would like to root my phone when i get it and would appreciate your time if you could help answer some questions i have.
1) If i root my phone can i revert back if i want to? by this i mean go back to the Vodafone default, sorry don't know what they call it, basically so it's back with Vodafones custom android or whatever it is they call it.
2) I guess i will loose everything on the phone like apps etc? can i backup everything before hand?
3) I would like Android 2.2 which i believe is the latest version, by rooting the phone how would i go about then updating to Android 2.2? would i just need to check for updates from the HTC website or something?
4) I here about all these custom roms, can someone explain what these custom roms are? are they modified versions of android or something?
5) If i am able to update to Android 2.2 does that mean i can install apps on the sd card to save the memory in the phone as this would really benefit me?
6) Do i need to root the phone to install Android 2.2 on it?
Maybe i don't need to root the phone to get Android 2.2, if not does anyone have a guide on how i can do this please?
Thanks for any help and sorry if these questions have been answered before.
I did read the UnRevoked Guide which has explained things a bit and sounds the easiest way and red all the replies to.
Thanks
MR
1) Yes. You do this by finding the relevant RUU on the internet and then flashing it to your phone.
2) Rooting does not make you lose any of your apps, it just gives you more access to your phone in a way. When you install a custom ROM you can use a program like Titanium Backup to backup all your apps. Also you make a Nandroid backup of your phone that you can recover in case something goes wrong.
3) Over the air (OTA) updates of Android 2.2 will be coming before Christmas it is thought so if that is all you want you could wait. There are a few different 2.2 based ROMs available on this forum if you look through the threads. This thread lists the different ROMs with links to each thread and there are some links to guides as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822181
4) The custom ROMs are community modified versions of Android that provide something different to the stock ROM. Some of them have HTC Sense, some of them are the standard Android interface. Which one you choose all depends on what you want out of your phone. See the link above for more info.
5) Yes a feature of Android 2.2 is apps2SD. This is available in the custom ROMs.
6) If you don't want to root your phone then you can wait for the OTA update of 2.2 from Vodafone. If you don't want to wait then you will have to root your phone.
I believe those answers to your questions are correct although you could be better waiting for a more experienced member to reply. I suggest you read as much as you can about rooting and installing custom ROMs so you can make sure you are making the right decision and that you know what you are doing.
You need to be aware that rooting your phone will void your warranty.
Hi,
Thanks for replying, this has really helped answering my questions
Thanks
MR
Well this is my very first post/thread on XDA so hello all
I have been told to visit this site if I need help so, here I am.
Okay so I have just signed up for a contract which includes the HTC Wildfire. I want to update it to 2.2 (comes with 2.1 if I'm not mistaken)
I have read up as much as I can but it all really means mumble jumble to me. Anyway I have been told (by a friend) that I must first root the 2.1 and then download the 2.2 and put it in a recovery file. It this correctt?
If so how do you root a phone? Do you just download a file and run it? Also what is the best one to use because I have been reading up and there seem to be an awful lot of different ones.
Now I need to update it to 2.2, how? Is it a case of downloading a file and running it on the phone or what?
Also does any of this void the warranty on the phone?
What are the advantages of going this whole rout rather than just pushing the update button and letting the phone update it's self to 2.2? (Is it just so you can download paid apps for free or is there more?)
Thanks in advance guys
Mikrouwel
if you don't know which version you get, it's a bit early to ask question, as if its a wildfire froyo with hboot ver. 1.01 you already updated. And can't root it as yet.
If it's a wildfire eclair with hboot ver 0.8 you root it and put on a special ruu img file that doesn't change the hboot 0.8 to 1.01.
But ofcource this you've would already have known if you had searched the forums.
Sorry to say so, this is also my first post on xda, but i've been able to read and search......
Firstly, it seems your basic concepts are all muddled. There's no method which you will use which allows you to install "Paid Apps for Free". I have no idea where you heard it, but, to do that, you don't need 2.2, or any special ROM.
Secondly, there are two methods to get 2.2:
1: The official route: This is the route which you think will allow you to download paid apps for free (i.e. by simply clicking update on the OTA Notification). Although nothing of that sort happens. Anyway, back on point, if you do this, you will officially get froyo 2.2, but, most of the features of froyo will be disabled (eg: JIT), and, you will not be able to root your phone, and, in this process, install root apps, custom ROM's etc.
2: The unofficial way - In this, you will have to root your phone and put a Custom ROM. The advantages are many fold - You can get a ROM to your own liking, which is fast and free of bloat, and, customize it exactly to your liking, apart from many additional features like true Apps2SD, Live Wallpapers, Ability to completely backup, overclock and underclock your phone etc. Further, you can even get Android 2.3.2 Gingerbread, if you wish
Obviously, now, it is upto you which method you take, but, if you want to learn to root and install Custom ROM's, refer this guide, and just read it completely:

Hey there,
im pretty happy with my phone, but sometime i feel like its some kinda bad to get apps for evey setting that htc did not provide in 2.2 (2.2.1 not available to me yet). Although i think enough "****" is running systemwise that noone needs.
So flashing to a custom rom seems to be an pretty easy thing if you
do it carefully and check all potential failure actions.
Will custom roms make the phone faster ?
To all that flashed yet: Do you regret it or is it like the best thing you can do ?
Do i lose any important functions of my phone ? Are the roms stable and working good actually ?
Thanks !

Having been running Custom Roms since I had my HTC Magic, I would heartly recommend them to most users, It's all about what you want from your phone though. If you are unhappy with all the bloatware installed and dislike sense it's an ideal way to streamline functionality, your DHD will, in most cases , run smoother than stock and should have at least comparable battery life. Currently I am running CM7 which gives me a stable gingerbread based rom, with a decent custom rom there should be no loss of functionality (even the FM radio works these days).
Custom ROMs are by and large an excellent way to keep your phone up to date whilst taking advantage of new features.
There is a risk of introducing new issues, but the support you get is a million times better than you'd get from the manufacturer, and new updates are usually a couple of times a week rather than a couple of times a year.
The main risk, I find (at least from my Windows Mobile days) is that some ROM developers tend to let things run away from them a bit and end up sandwiching so many new features and launchers and eye candy etc that it ends up slowing the phone down more than the stock ROM did.
So far I've not seen anything like that on recent Android devices, but with older handsets like the Hero there are some custom ROMs that are noticably slower than stock.
As long as you realise that there is a performance limit on your handset that will eventually be breached, then you will have a happy experience with custom ROMs.
Sounds promising. Really.
Im just irritated with the instructions.
My Desire HD is yet rooted.
But there is nothing about S-OFF or Radio OFF mentioned.
I remember most instructions with S-OFF and then Rom Manager or something.
But in this case - Whats the "Wipe" ? Normally means all stuff gets removed ?
Im missing detailled information, especially how installing the rom (via app ?)
and which version i need of my desire hd and more :/
Is this the safest way to flash it ?
And waht the hell means "vendor = ace" ?
Which vendor i "got" ? Im irritated or maybe i translate things bad from eng into ger
ps: guess i got it. htc ace was/is the codename for the desire hd device.

In my experience, the easiest way to get ENG S-OFF and Radio S-OFF would be to use jkoljo's excelent tools for S-OFF and Radio S-OFF. Here's a guide to flashing a new radio after you have done Radio S-OFF.
In the Radio S-OFF topic, there's also a small guide for flashing a new rom. If you need a more detailed one, you can find one here.
The next step is to find the rom that suits you the most, for example Android Revolution HD or LeeDroid. Download the ROM you like the most, then follow the aforementioned guide to flash it.
When you go from one rom to another, it's always reccomended to do a full wipe (unless it's just a rom update, then you don't always have to do it). In this case, it means that all your data and settings will be lost, except for the stuff you have on your SD card. You can use your Google-account to back up your apps and contacts and stuff, so do that if you feel you need it.
Hope this helps.
Other handy tools for data backup before migrating to a new rom are MyBackup Pro and of course, Titanium Backup.
Don't forget that contacts, market apps, and wi-fi passwords are synced to your google account by default, so no need for huge app backup files unless you have several apks from other sources..
The guides about S-OFF and Radio flashing posted above are detailed and relatively easy for anyone willing to experiment.
Just make sure that you check the instructions carefully, and double-check whatever you type in adb. The few minutes of making sure you're following instructions to the letter can save you hours of un-needed trouble and aggravation..
Also take note, different custom ROMs often recommend specific radios for maximum compatibility. This can make a significant difference in battery and wireless performance, specially with power hungry devices such as ours.
And above all, try different roms, see what you like best. Running the bleeding edge in Android can be as fun as it can be frustrating, so try to find the best suit for your phone and you, and enjoy it
So alright - I think i got it:
1. Root Device (Visionary)
2. Radio S-Off (Tool)
3. Radio Off (Tool)
4. Download a Radio.img (How can i find out which works best with the crom i want ?)
5. Use radio tool and reboot
6. Find a suitable custom rom
7. install and voila - there we go
Some questions that came up:
- Whats the "best" radio out there ? Is this as important as picking a good C-Rom ?
- HTC Sync preinstalls only means that i got it on my PC already, right ?
- And can all of those steps (except root) kill my device (=brick) or am i safe at the moment when Radio S-OFF and Eng S-OFF worked properly ?
- Nowhere is something about the VERSION i need ? So will a Desire HD 2.1, 2.2, 2.2.1 and 2.3 work with all the STEPS ?
Which custom rom is the best for me ? How can i compare all roms out ?
I only heard bout Android Rev HD, LeedDroid and CYMOD.
I want speed and i want a nice User Interface (but i guess i can reach that with ADW.Launcher.EX or Launch-Pro no matter how the Rom looks ?)
Thanks guys for all the answers already !
Would be so thankful if you can finish this with me.
PS: If i "brick" my device is there 100% no chance to unbrick it ?
Was possible with psp 2000 e.g. after some months. think so with desire hd too ?
1. In most cases, the developer of any given rom will reccomend a spesific radio to use with his/hers rom (like with LeeDroid or ARHD). Usually I'd just go for that radio, but as with so many other things in life, your mileage with a spesific radio may vary. While one user might report good signal strength and battery with one radio, another user might say the complete opposite. Anyway, stick to the radio reccomended by the ROM developer. I think that's the safest to do.
2. I've not even used HTC Sync since I bought my Desire HD, and I don't see the need to use it.
3. You're never 100% safe, but in my experience, once you're past the ENG/Radio S-OFF and your new radio is flashed, it's usually smooth sailing from there. But always remember that **** can happen, and you might be unlucky, so if you're unsure of something, read up on the subject as many times as you need for you to feel comfortable doing it.
4. As for what rom is best, that's really up to you I think. I've stuck to ARHD, and I find it fantastic, but you might like LeeDroid or CM7 better. Just look at screen shots, and try to figure out which one is most suited for you. And as you said, with AWD or LauncherPro, and the right wallpaper, any ROM can look beautiful
5. If your device is bricked, I don't know of any method of getting it back to life. All I can think of is send it to HTC, claim that it's dead, and hope for the best.
I flashed my first ROM yesterday just (leedroid 2.2.2). I havent really had much of a chance to explore the real benefits of it, but im already delighted that i did it. Just by being able to add custom themes, fonts and skins to get the phone looking much brighter and colourful. Also nice playing with overclocking the processor.
Took a bit of work to downgrade the software to get root, then a few problems getting s-off etc, but in the end it was all a good learning experience. Certainly dont regret doing it, just sort of regret that i put it off for so long. Looking forward to much playing about with different ROMS and customising them.
Just make sure you read the threads on here about rooting very carefully. And also read very carefull the instructions that come with each ROM. Leedroid recommended a radio that works best with his ROM, so i flashed that. Dont know if others do the same as i havent got round to trying any others yet.
Am i right that only with Radio S-OFF i will be also able to install custom roms,
but NO new radio versions ? Is the problem the compability (with croms) or is there any other reason for new radios than better connection/battery ?
Which users are fine with only Radio S-OFF ?
As i can read, RSPOFF is safer than ENGSOFF.
Also: the question about the VERSION is really making me moving.
Hope someone can explain me, why nowhere is mentioned something about it.
I remember 2.2.1 cant be rooted and 2.3 - so is this the explaination
(cause you cant go over step 1) ? or whats the point ?

Once you've done Radio S-OFF (not sure what your step 3 is - seems the same as 2) then I'd recommend installing ROM Manager from the Market and ensuring you have either ClockWorkMod 2.5.1.3 (up to Android 2.2) or 3.0.0.6 (android 2.3) installed. This then allows you do do all your Nandroid backups and System wipes that you will need to before you flash a new ROM.

As said, there is technically no "Best" radio - but the dev of a ROM will recommend a decent compatible ROM. You are welcome to try others but you may notice weaker signal or degraded battery life.

Not "Safe" but at least much more likely to be able to recover. You can still permanently damage it - but doing so would be pretty hard work!

Read their respective threads and see what you like and don't like. That's what everyone else does. No ROM is "better" than the other.

Depends how badly bricked it is! (see above)
To add the misstying under 2. or 3.
I meant:
2. Radio S-oFF
3. ENG S-Off.
What is ENG S-OFF in some easy words doing other than Radio ?
As i understood - without ENG S-oFF i cant install custom radio images, right ?
Means: New Roms, but maybe not the best compatible radios ?
Also: When installed Clockwork i can backup everything ?
Means a NANDROID backup i guess ?
I thought when i want to get back, i just need this Ruu Rom and
Set all Tools to S-ON ? So this Nandroid backup, whats that ? "Ruu" is the original rom and the "nandroid backup" is the system-backup/firmware/original radio.img?
Im just ab it irritated with all the words like rom, radio, firmware :/
Im so thankful for all the answers yet.
Never expected such useful answers, most forums full of guys that link
to other threads and do not really care. so until now - great work !

ENG S-OFF will allow you to flash rom's, Radio s-OFF will allow you to flash radio's as well (ENG S-off fools h-boot into believing it has radio s-off)
Radio S-OFF will not be reverted by flashing a new h-boot unlike ENG S-OFF.
Different rom's suit different people, seen as you are going to loose all your data falshing a custom rom, i would recommend flashing a couple and having a play around (leedroid and Coredroid etc have sense if that rock's your boat, Cyanogenmod is closer to vanilla android) as everyone has a different preference.
The Versioning of ROM's is a bit of a grey area all ROM's are based on an android release 2.1, 2.2.1, or even 2.3 etc but many have features ported to them from other release i.e stuff from 2.3 or even 2.4 may be present in a 2.1 based ROM so look for a rom with the features you desire rather than relying on the base. But some ROM's require different instructions for flashing i.e Gingerbread ROM's require clockwork recovery version 3.x this is due to different file systems used, to be safe make sure to read the first couple of entries in the ROM thread in the development section before flashing as it will list any special requirements or steps that need taking prior to flashing.

Maybe im just reading it wrong, but do you mean that Radio S-OFF has all the features that ENG S-OFF brings PLUS the radio flash option ?
Then why all the instructions say, i need both (ENG and Radio) ?
Generelly, you recommend only ENG S-OFF or will the most good Custom Roms not work that good with the original radio version from htc ?
And Gingerbread Roms need Clockwork 3.X - But Clockwork 3.X needs Desire HD with 2.3, as i got told above.
And i cant upgrad to this by using HTC Updater. I guess, i have to manually upgrade my original Firmware then, right ?
Complete guide in my sig (check out the dev forums, lots of them out there)
Radio s-off and eng s-off are 2 different things and you need both if you want to be able to flash a rom.
And yes, I love my custom rom more than I will ever love stock. Why? because it looks like the stock one but it's lightning fast and drains less battery. Oh, and I have better reception

Gingerbread roms need 3.X, but you don't need Gingerbread to install it. I have CWM 3.0.0.6 but am on a FroYo ROM. All down to my own personal choice!
Also, yes. a Nandroid backup is an exact copy of your ROM (not your radio). So all apps, settings etc will be exactly the same when you restore it. You can't do this without a clockworkmod recovery.
ROM Manager interfaces with CWM and allows you better management of your backups and also gives you an easy way to upgrade your recovery without having to mess around in a terminal emulator or command window.
The relationship between Kernel, Radio (Baseband) and a custom ROM? So in theory, can you mix and match different version and combination, but there seems to be proven combination that works better, is that correct?
Base on what I am reading, they are can contribute to a faster, more stable, and a more battery efficient phone system.

Nice Guide. Has everything i need.
Why i need both ?
In case i dont need/want a new radio version and ONLY a new crom,
i dont need the Radio S-OFF. Cause you say i need both ? Why ?
Maybe gimme a short answer to that.
