if you need root and hebrew, root the stock 2.1 rom with unrevoked and install wildpuzzle

That would be cool, standing in the shop and rooting the fresh buyed phone in front of the salesmen.

Just check what software version it's running. 99% positive it'll be 2.1, in which case it can be rooted, incredibly easily, by following here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788776
Then if you want Froyo, flash either WildFire or Puzzle. Or wait a bit for CyanogenMod.

say if i install this unrootable official froyo ROM (RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTCCN_CHS_2.10.1400.3_Radio_13.53.5 5.24H_3.35.19.25_release_151119_signed.exe) and will I be able to install the custom ROMs available later ???

Should I update my DHD?

I just received an notification for my phone saying I have a system update available. Should I just ignore it, or it is save to do so? Since my phone is rooted and unlocked and I might perform an eng-off, radio and custom rom flash this weekend.
Please advice.
Friend greet.

Strange, I am on Vodafone Uk, but phone is sim free, and no update available..., was phone from east or uk stock? , I don't think is 2.3, but 1.72 they removed, 1.83 was for branded and as I know was removed too, not sure what can be..

I had an update from 2.2o to 2.21 yesterday on Orange.
It didnt seem to do any harm but im running stock.

Yeah if u arent rooted it woodnt matter just ppl with root cant update ota

Oh yes, I forgot, branded dhd just get it now 2.2.1, I am on 2.2.1 already, just before christmas, and very lucky, no any problems.., but still 2.3 will be nice ...

I was wondering if its better to install a new kernel and radio first better I install a custom Rom. Or it doesn't really matter which order I do it in.
Thanks.

So I guess I don't need to get ENG-OFF unless I decide to use a different radio, or it is a better to do it anyway?

Don't really understand what your trying to say! I would recommend, as Kali himself does, flashing one of the newer radios as they all seem to improve battery life, the most recommended one is Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF although I am currently running Radio_12.28g.60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3
which seems fine to me.

You'll need ENG h-boot if something goes awry in the flashing as it allows you to issue fastboot commands which can save a potentially bricked phone, plus it is the only way you can currently flash the new radio

thanks for your advice
would the efficiency of the radio varies from phone to phone or network to network?
since I am doing this whole process slate clean, which order would u recommend I install them in? roms, radio, kernel?

well, i'd definately do the rom last, as you would probably have to reinstall it after patching a new radio anyway.

Just flashed Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF.
So it doesn't matter if I flash the kernel or the rom first right?

G1 stuck on T Mobile US stock rom

Hi
Am helping my friend who for dunno what reason flashed his stock G1 singapore rom to US Tmobile stock rom. When he boots up it looking for T Mobile signal which of course there is non here in Singapore. I am unable to find his stock rom image as I am new to android myself. Can anyone help?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Depends on what your friend wants to do. Since Does he wants to root his G1 and get the custom ROM or, just going back to the original?

He actually wants to root n flash new roms but if get back stock is also ok

If you are going to root your friend phone and flash it with the custom ROM.

The official update is for the end of this month?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

maybe released tomorrow during their conference
this an amazing update by HTC it really transforms the whole phone, their only one bug I could find which is the badly rendered friends stream widget, and one pixel misalignment in the music sound enhancement, but really amazing work from HTC the new gallery rendering is super clean and smooth, the new lockscreen is really something, i hope they pattened it before Apple steals it

It will remove ENG S-OFF, but it will not touch Radio S-OFF. If somebody wants to try that RUU, it is recommended to have Radio S-OFF because then it is easy to go back to another ROM.

Just today i had installed the leaked PD98IMG file of the 3.06.405.2 firmware.
Beforehand i had installed the official 2.50.405.1 RUU and then I installed the upgrade by the recovery.
Well, I was very surprised to find out it was rooted and it still had s-off.
Does anybdy know if installing this RUU I would lose root and s-off?

Sense 3.0? HTC are awesome if they're bringing this to the HD officially

So can I flash this on unrooted device
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

I suppose so. Let us know of it works. I would gladly do it of not for the fact that I have already installed this ROM by PD98IMG through recovery.
I wonder if there are differences...
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using XDA App

the only issue i have with it is that the picture on the RUU is of a tablet!? dont really fancy bricking my phone

i was more looking if this was easy way to upgrate /downgrade to gain root access. I really was scared to make the gold card etc...
So if some one had flashed the RUU wanted to see if that worked , especially when they were not rooted

I wanted to see if any one got pass the signature check, this failed for with Signature error.

You must downgrade first to root (works for me months ago build ver. 2.37):

Use AAHK
You can use AAHK to root and get s-off in one step without manually downgrading first. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259821

There are a few links or resources via my sig (here).

For those saying you have to downgrade you have no idea what you are talking about. Especially when you resort to name calling. The Advanced Ace Hack Kit does not require ROM downgrading. It only downgrades radio and kernal. It is the only currently supported method available. Others have been discontinued or do not work anymore.
