Try that, worked for me!!
Glad that it worked for you!
Our XDA Servers must have somehow accidently moved your new post to the Development section. Don't worry, I'll go ahead and move it to General where it belongs.

This link should have everything you need. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614 You just need to flash HSPL >>Android compatible Windows ROM (so you do not have sound issues and others issues) then flash an Android build. You also may need to update your radio depending on which one you have. But that link will tell you everything you need to know.
I think this is what you were asking lol?
Hello ,
I use the ROM Blayo 0.6 and i just put my phone S-Off .
i want to update to v.0.7 but in the thread of the ROM i see in installation area :
Installation
...If your phone is S-OFF then I guess you know what to do.

Can i update the rom as usual (by recovery) or do I need to do something for don't lost my S-Off after update ?
I read in some thread that i need to remove the HBOOT from the rom.zip , is it right ?
If yes , is there a tutorial post for do it ?
Thank you in advance for your help .
Bye.
Flash the new Rom as you would any other, you may need to use an older version of the fake flash software (2.5.1 or something like that) it is found in Rom manager.
Sent from my S-OFF Bell Canada HTC Legend.
Flash the 0.7 Rom, you need nothing else. It works and my Legend ist still S-OFF.
Hello ,
Ok thank you guys for informations .
Bye.
Ok, so i had an optimus one, but this is completley different so please help...or point me to some help pages and stuff
I bought an HTC DESIRE HD , as i notice is rooted, it has RCMixHD 6.0.0.1(android 2.3.3 Sense 2.1) ,
kernel V2.6.35.10 - [email protected] march 29
So :
What do i need to install a new ROM ?
I read something about some radio vers, what up with that??
And if i find something else to ask, i will write here !
Thanks in advance , sorry for being a noob
reading is fundamental. i researched HTC phones months before i bought one(came from blackberry). after i got my DHD i stumbled across "rooting". so i did months of research before i rooted my phone. i still feel like im a noob because im still learning and finding new things out. my point is...you should do the research and not expect people to feed you the answers you are looking for. im not trying to be a ****. just shedding some enlightenment.
sent from the Penh.
Yep, no one can click a button and make you learn things like that.
Check the how to threads in the subforum "Desire HD Android Development".
Everything you need is there.
Read, read, read.

OK ! at least please tell me if can safely update RIL ... i have an older vers and how i can install android revolution ROM
THX!

See point number 3 (last lines in the first post), to check if you have ClockWorkMod Recovery installed (you probably have). Do it anyway, to update to new version, if it's the case.
You will flash your roms through ClockWorkMod Recovery.
To reach it, shutdown your phone. Then hold the volume down key and press the ON button (top one). You're in bootloader mode. Choose recovery from the menu, using the volume keys and the On/Off button to confirm.
You will boot into ClockWorkMod Recovery. To install a rom, you would already have downloaded the file in the developer's thread and copy the zip file to the root of the sdcard. Don't mess with the zip.
From the ClockWorkMod Recovery menu, choose install zip from card.

thx joooeee !!! so i found out that my phone is ENG s-off ! that is some work not needed to do by me!
About the RIL, you will only need it if the rom has Sense. No Sense roms don't need it.
And you need to match the RIL to the Radio version installed.
ok so despite what you said, i managed to learn some stuff , i updated radio and RIL
and i have the phone for 3 hours
thx jooooe ! you really helped
Nice. You are ready to become a rom flasher addict.
yeaaah ) and the thing is that this phone has a loooooooooooot of roms ) boston and LG optimus one had few ...and those few are buggy
L.E - flashed 1st ROM ) i haaaaaaaa
As stated everything you need to know is already posted in the forums. Calling your self a noob doesn't excuse you not doing your research before opening a new thread. Come on really? No matter the device there are stickies for them all with all the info a new flasher needs to get started.

With the help from the guide and material for noobies on the forum I am able to flash Nand android 2.2.1 baseband version 2.6.32.15
build gauner 1986hdf1 on my HTC hd2 T8585 earlier with win6.5 . the android version is working fine with the mobile.so far and thanks to the forum for making an oldie able to do which every vendor said that it cannot be done despite my paying money to them.
However I wish to seek some clarifications..
1. Whether I can now flash jelly bean 4.2.2 or flash any other rom suitable for updating the 2.2.1 or compatible with it and where I can find links to proceed further.?
Is there a need for further updating or should I continue with the existing rom.?
2. despite running setup 3.3.63.exe downloaded from HTC to sync with my Pc , the mobile does not sync.
I mean that the HTC sync says "no device detected" when the phone is in fact connected via original cable ! However I can mount the card and copy pictures from the computer . How to sync with HTC sync?.
whether Rom manager will work with my installed version.2.2.1
.
If I have posted in wrong place please advise. rectify.
thanks
