Is there a way to go from the 2.1 leak v2 to 2.1 root? or even 2.1 leak v2 back to 1.5. I need to send my phone back due to many errors and can not send it back until I can either get back to 1.5 or possible fix it with root.
THERE IS NO ROOTING AND NO DOWNGRADING FOR ANY LEAKED VERSIONS!
why wont anyone do a simple search or READ a few threads? geez. Lets keep a tally. this should be, say, the 430598th time this has been asked
i think we need to make a sticky, with a thread title as such -^ also mod please move to General section
no. read the forums
Ive read many different forums. I didn't know if anyone has found a way yet. So should I just call my insurance and tell them I lost my phone?
I have read elsewhere either on these forums or another forum site that you can turn in the phone with the leaked 2.1 on it with no problems from Verizon.
Please search around and you will find reference to this issue.
Don't bother using my work if you committing fraud against Verizon.

thats fairly hypocritical of you since you didn't have a problem with any of the devs with 2.1 leaks doing it on IRC.

By nature of your work existing, this is quite the hypocritical comment. Just saying.

Really? Now how many have I banned from my irc server? How many people went to forums griping about it?

How about you reading the license agreements that my stuff is based on?Even tho the license that comes with the phones allows us use of the proprietay bits, I guess I have to take down the ONE thing I have that uses them, the 1.5 rom. Thank you for setting me straight.
Downloads to my work with google prorietary bits are now removed, and gave you proper credit for pointing me straight.
FYI everyone else, all my PATCHES use either A) open source code, or B) code by me.
FYI Nimdae, since you work for Verizon, maybe you can answer this question.
When are Eris users getting an official 2.1?

jcase, I don't know you but I'm sorry to see you go. You and your work will be missed. Best of luck man.
seems that people returning perfectly good phones because they screwed them up is a bit different kind of fraud. but hey, what do I know.

Hello!
I'm TheDeadCPU. I'm the new forum Moderator for the HTC Legend forum!
I thought I'd make this post to introduce you guys to me.
I'm just here to keep it clean here.
Anything you'd like stickied and such please just tell me in this thread!
Though this thread will be cleaned from such things after it's been fixed.
I hope you guys will like me!
Cheers,
TheDeadCPU
Hey TheDeadCpu,
Nice to have you around.
I think it would be most beneficial to have a sticky with the content of *something* along the lines of: "Beginners Guide: Rooting a HTC Legend".
This type of stickied thread is common in most other sub forums
Indeed is but there isn't a such thread. Though I might make such a thread.
Oh no, Just saw your signature in another thread. Our new moderator doesnt even use Legend. Desire user you be....
I won't hold that against you, good to have you around.
welcome, sir. We promise not to make your work difficult Ive gained a lot from my times here and look forward to better times.

I did have a Legend for a short time so I know the device a bit. And I'm mostly here to make sure the forum is clean and that the people here are happy.
But I do understand your concern! Lol.

good to meet you mate. Hope we don't make your job too hard.
Request to stickie the thread about debranding the legend - I'm still getting PM's about it lol.
thanks.
Good to have you around.
it would be good to see a summary of reported OTA releases? I'm finding it hard to figure out what is the latest as some of these only quote the last part of the version
ie perhaps the sticky could show this in the top part of the thread.
You will all take the level of importance of this question as your own but I have had a query burning in my mind for a while.
I know that currently the Android OS is a BUILD and it takes a wm ROM to launch off, but I was wondering is there a way for the HTC LEO to run DROID ONLY and never have to associate itself or use WM ROMS ever again. Essentially I am asking is there a way to create a ANDROID ROM for the HTC LEO?
Note: Can the answers be open minded and not fuelled by programmers knowledge as most programmers I know will only give answers in the current boundaries of technology, but I do urge you to remember that at one point Computers were impossible...but they did it. I hope the programmers here do not take offence to this, I just want to know is it theoretically possible.
Thank you in advance.

I had also wondered about this as I just got a HD2 last week, my very first smartphone. I put Android on it and love it, I didn't care to much for Windows Mobile. If people would have developed apps for it like iOS and Android I would have stay with winmo but I really wanted that Sirius XM app

100% agree with this (i often say it too), with a few exceptions tho
the big NAND question being 1 of them, if you are fairly new to this scene, it can be info overload & without reading every thread this info is easy to miss.
how does "NAND" translate into Android Rom? unless you've been been around for a while you wont know.

Thanks dude
Some of us (noob and non-noob) do a few things that make XDA not as enjoyable for all of us.
1 - Please do NOT make MULTIPLE threads on the same topic (5 topics on page 1 are by the same person, 4 of which are all related to the same topic). Wouldn't ONE thread with everything be nicer for the OP and ALL of XDA?
2 - Edit your posts - if you forgot to say something or you need to word it better, just edit your initial post, no need to make more clutter.
3 - Be respectful... as much as you can tolerate.
4 - Try and help if you can.
5 - Rather than go back and forth in a thread (arguing/talking), PM the person. Hint, WE do NOT care.
6 - Developer's ROM threads are for THAT purpose, developing. It is NOT to be compared to another rom, and nobody cares if you are about to flash it.
7 - Post in the correct section! This is not hard... questions go in the Q&A. Apps/Themes go there... ONLY developers should post new threads in the development section. General is a catch all for everything else, related to the Vibrant.
8 - Spell Etiquette correctly (I'm flashing Gingerbread on my Nexus, doing this while backing up.... my excuse )
Also, if you feel a thread like this IS the issue.... you may need to look in the mirror.
may want to edit title, it's spelled etiquette...
just friendly heads up before the flaming starts lol
psst...! i think you mean "etiquette".
you might wanna add "please take your disagreements outside of the thread or just agree to disagree".
i dunno about you, but i'm getting sick of seeing arguments when reading threads in the dev section. ~_~
Is this topic meant for that person that rides x's?

It's meant for EVERYONE. Not trying to call anyone out.
Awesome post. If the xda app had a thanks button, I'd use it. I'd be using the report button, too. A LOT.

I'm sorry if i did, but which are the exact same threads? I'm not sure i made the exact same threads 3 times.
Can you possibly tell me their title or link?
Here is another one. Comments in a rom are supposed to be for that rom only. Ie. Bugs fixes, performance, etc. You should NOT compare roms.. Ex. " boomers" rom is much faster than this... " comments like this are pointless and do nothing for the development of the rom the thread is about.

I posted the first thread "vibrant comes with 2.2!" because i'd made a thread a day or two ago asking if Vibrants now come with 2.2
Everyone on the thread said NO.
I wanted to let people know that it does, because i just got a refurb with 2.2.
the second was a question kind-of.
I was wondering why people were hating on stock ROMS because i had great experiences with it. (not 2.1) Everyone on this forum says "STAY AWAY FROM STOCK, ITS LAGGY!!!!" I wanted to oppose that because i had no problems what-so-ever with that.
I don't see how their related just because they both have something to do with 2.2 though.
I really dont see what ya'lls problem w/xrider is, his posts may have been similar but they are still different.
This is an open forum and with so many new people coming and going it will always be like this,theres no way to control it,and in trying to do so will only create undue stress
The only way it can be some what "controled" is to make it a closed forum :-(
And by editing does it bring in new viewers not likely.
Imho i dislike cyber arguing but some times it apperently takes a lil cyber flogging to set some straight or get rid of the bashers
This is in no way a negitive post towards the OP nor anyone else

+1 Agree totally. Singling out some person just creates a feud and that is rarely productive. The real issue is for people to try and remember that when writing in the thread, sarcasm, double entendres, and other other verbal expressions rarely make sense in written form. Plus, the macho adolescent comments do not go over well either.
My best advice and rule that always works is this :
Try to make your comments so if your parents or some one you respect was reading they would understand what you are saying and the intent.
Follow that rule and you will never have problems (of course unless you are a sociopath-)

Because they want to feel special. I think we need more then one mod for the atrix section.
Yea... especially when anything newsworthy with the words "boot", "loader", "Gingerbread", or "rom" pop up on the interwebz.

True.... but forums aren't a new concept. And it's rare to see a forum that welcomes multiple threads with the same topic with open arms.
I think this thread is a great idea. The other one is full of "this is a Dev thread, don't clutter it up with useless drivel"
actually, this thread is a great idea.
all the "this-is-a-dev-thread-elitist-nazis" can police and berate all the non-dev comments that pop up in the thread located IN THE DEV SECTION.
So what's wrong with having a corresponding thread in the general section that non-dev folks can post in, ask questions, etc without having to take a virtual, condescending ass chewing from the "this-is-a-dev-thread-elitist-nazis"?
*edit* rozzco beat me to the point...
Once again, you all can report and walk away without leaving any comment. It's that simple.
cellzealot just broke my heart and said that it won't work because the radio's won't be restarted under the custom kernel.
Breaking this on a news site was a bad, bad idea...It's completely and utterly premature. There's going to be 5,000 people over the next few days referencing this asking how to accomplish what's mentioned. It'll hit Engadget, and BGR, and then all hell will break loose but nothing will have changed [yet]. Frakking sheeple.

He makes a strong case.
Do other phones (sections) get jerked around as bad as the Atrix? We've been told the bootloader was cracked, promised an OC mod, and now this? I sure hope this isn't normal.
