HD2 Coming Tmrw! First thing?

Hey, my long awaited HD2 is coming tmrw!!! WOOHOO! YES!
Okay, all excitement over, what is the first thing I should do?
As in, screen tests, setting tweaks, etc?
Also, can someone step by step go through how to flash a EnergyROM onto the device later, once I have it?
Thanks,
The Gamer in MYJ

Thanks man, I've heard so much good about it, but lately there have been so many bugs/problems being discussed on the forums, that I'm slightly scared.
Okay, thanks for the advice, will do. I just was looking at some ROMs, and saw how awesome Energy looked with MaxManilia haha

Hi there! Welcome to XDA Developers
I see your HD2 is arriving soon! Trust me it is SHINY!!!
And you'll love the way the device balances in your hand. Anyways, i'd suggest first of all to learn how to use the phone. Like, familiarise yourself with the layout, play around with the camera, and best of all flow through the Sense UI.
To learn how to flash ROMS, go to the HD2 Rom development section and head into the HSPL Guide there. Everything is mentioned step-by-step. Follow instructions carefully
That said, i'll strongly advice you try out more than one ROM, as each chef has his/her own unique taste and preferances. You're sure to find a ROM that's "just right" for you!
Remember to install Chainfire's HD2 Driver Patch, as that'll make your device run even smoother. Finally, browse through the General forum, and make sure you check out the Tips and Tricks forum, which is a life saver! If you want, also update your phone's Radio Version (found in the ROM Development Section)

hehe np m8 just play around with it and when the time comes that u say damn i hate this stock rom flash asap xD
And about the bugs/problems they can be fixed, the new roms that are out now cooked by the chefs have no big issues so thers nothing to worry about.
And yes EnergyRoms are just awesome i personally have to say best rom ive used so far its fast, stable and its eyecatching everything that i need is in this rom ^^

have a good search on this site there is some cracking tweaks and cabs oout there, i have flashed alot of roms lol i have a problem but found one i love
[ROMeOS4](06MAR-v4.03.210|576MB)[WM655-23541][S-20121412] SO MANY ROMs,WANT THE BEST
is defo worth a go, also one of the best cabs is
All Opera Mobile/Mini versions: Official thread , use the Opera 10 B3 Repack (No Prompts/Flash Lite/Rotation/More its cracking web browser
and finally u gotta get
Co0kie's Home Tab - Extended QuickLinks, Appointments and More
and his editor, its top notch , hope u enjoy your htc hd2

Thanks
@Elemental_fire
Thanks for the warm welcome! Im a total noob, so thanks for all the info, I will be sure to install the patch, and browse the ROMS section. Im sure its VERY shiny!
@vietprid3
Im sure i'll get tired of the stock ROM quickly, all the others just look amazing haha. Very eye catching!
Thanks, Energy is the first i'm trying!
@DanJohnson19855
Thanks, I will try out that ROM later on, and that cab of the browser looks good
I see everyone uses cookie, and much less of MaxManila (the two kinda i've seen), why is that?

Hey Gamer,
Congrats i'm sure you will be happy with your choice. I would see how the stock rom fairs up for a couple of days nothing against custom roms some of the do look great! A friend of mine uses the ENERGY Roms. But i'm still running on stock just upgraded to 1.66 today but still loving it even though it isn't modded.

Okay, I will be sticking to stock for awhile, just to use it some. What kind of feedback does your friend have about the EnergyROMS? And how do you upgrade to 1.66? Thanks much

I suppose that the cookie mod imitates the iPhone's app screen? Maybe people will be like "My device has 3 UI's in 1: iPhone home which is what the cookie rom seems to do, then there's the WinMo Start button, when you tap that, you get the Program menu...and last but not least...HTC Sense
Plus it gives a more wider base for the HD2 to stand on (if that made Sense)
Mind the pun

Well there are 2 ways of getting the 1.66 Rom, first would be HTC's website, then Support, and go to the ROM update (You'll need to enter some digits found under your phone battery) OR...you can go to the HD2 ROM Development section and then look under the Stock Roms (easier and faster in my opinion than going all the way to HTC's website!)
Ps. EnergyRoms are amazing...you won't know until you try and experiance it for yourself! There are many tweaks etc applied...and it has a cool theme set. You'll also get regular updates

As Mr Elemental_Fire says, I would go for getting the rom via HD2 Development section. I downloaded the from from HTC website and for such a small file it seemed to take ages.(Could of just been the shonkey EU server though)

is there a way to get the desire browser (flash), on another rom

I am on cyanogen 5.0.5.3(however its spelled) and love it. Tried the desire rom but had bugs but I want the browser , so, has anyone found a way to get the browser to work on other roms?
If not, that would be cool.
Didn't know where to pit this thread, general or development so I chose general..
Thanks

I switched to Desire as my daily ROM the day I bought the phone. To be honest there are still problems with the Flash on the Desire ROM (Modaco) whether it's non-optimized or a beta, I don't know. Instead of voiding my warranty to flash ROMs, I might have waited until June when Flash is supposed to be released.
I know this doesn't answer your question but I thought some noobs might want to hold off

People tried to get this... but I guess there are too many dependencies... besides, flash lite sux... wait a bit... and enjoy the full powered flash 10.1 when it releases...

There is no way to port anything from the Desire ROM to another ROM.

Thanks guys.. so the desire isn't flash 10.1? It played a lot of flash sites that require more than just flashlight.. but yes it was a little buggy... Anyways thanks for your help guys..
Waiting for skyfire to release their browser for android or yea, real 10.1. Regardless I needed to root, I'm a phone dork and a non rooted n1 just doesn't feel like I'm too much of a phone dude...

I don't think it is flash lite, but someone may correct me. I've been able to load dailymotion and other embedded flash just fine when Flash Lite wouldn't. Whether those sites were suddenly optimized, I think probably not.
That said, the only site I have not been able to load properly on Desire is www.sonyericssonopen.com (the tennis site)

Even stock the N1 blows the doors off of other phones, and especially off my rooted G1.

I thought I read on here that the update is going to be in two stages, one preparing the phone and the other giving us 2.1 which was pushed back to June. Maybe this is just the crappy update.

I don't believe that bull****. Just another rumor.
Also can someone enlighten me what the hell means this: "and could cause seizures in small pets" ?

yeah they really could have been more specific in what they mean by "small", are we talking hamster size seizures or Yorkshire terrier size seizures?

that's crazy talk

Anyway I was asking myself :
Assuming that almost every member/reader of this forum would have tried at least once to install a custom ROM on their Hero, what to expect from the Official 2.1 update ?
Will I be sticking with it ? Will I wait for Villain/Kimera/other ports ? Assuming also that custom Roms will never be 100% stable...
Because from my experience with custom roms (and I've installed A LOT of them on A LOT of devices), it's allways about finding a compromise between speed and stability...
Yep, it's wednesday morning and I really don't wanna get to work...

I think when this 2.1 update comes out (probably won't happen soon, not even friday, as we all know HTC) this only may help custom modders in the stability of their roms, nothing else I'm guessing.

Wouldn't that be the Sprint Hero anyway?

Hmmmm,.... Well I haven't had the experience of swapping and changing ROMs on my Hero,... But having had it for about 2-3 months now, I'm still 100% happy with the speed and stability of the ROM I flashed to it on day 1, ... MCR3.2. I think I'v had 3 or 4 application force closes, and only had it freeze up forcing a re-boot ONCE!!!
I'm sure the custom 2.1's will be just as stable once we get the official ROM to use as a base.

Yes, I would assume so.

I'm not really looking for a more stable 2.1 rom. I just want the speed that is in the 1.5 roms. Since i've heard the 2.1 should be faster the the previous versions I have high hopes får the official release and that the dev can make the most out of it.

jpalo said:

So it wouldn't change anything, would it? I mean, don't we already have ROMs made from the Sprint Hero leak?

Hopefully this news would be true. I'm also looking forward to 2.1 rombut not because of its new capability but actually for developers in enhancing making the 2.1 rom using overclocked method

Same here
Hope that devs wil make some nice looking and fast rom out of it.
And no way i;m flashing it on my G2. Lucky that the gold card procedure worked out for me.

no feel.....

I just really hope the battery life will improve.
Current 2.1 ROMs are already quick and stable enough for me, I wish the battery would last longer though. Aside from that, there are only a few minor bugs in most 2.1 ROMs that are currently out there, which do not really bother me.

Its not the 2.1 ROMS that are the problem its all down to the Kernel,which no1 has!surely if it was coming soon then it would have leaked somehow!

if you follow the link from the article it says sprint hero...

[ROM] [04-04] Primo-S - v3.3 [HTC One V port] Android 4.0.3 [Sense 4.0A

just want to say a big thank you to you guys im first time rom trying on my DHD and tried a lot now and keep coming back to urs its very sweet fast its just amazing so once again thanks for your hard work.

thanks
i uses this rom，very good ，if camera can be fixed ,i think is great work

Great Rom
even though the camera doesnt work.. ist still a great rom.. in my opinion the best one out there yet.. very stable, have been using it for about a week now and ive used about three different roms and so far this is the one with the best battery usage.. everything but the camera seems to work, its pretty smoothe.. AND as a plus you get 25 GB of free storage from dropbox.. WHEN they get the camera working.. im going to keep this as my permanent rom

great rom but i have one problem
When I open Facebook app after few sec's wifi disconnects. It's like ON but not scanning and there are no available networks. I must restart to be in normal. Anyone else have this problem.
Full wipe, re-instaled FB, ...
On a 3.3 and 3.4 with DHD

I was gonna say version 3.4 is up but I see previous post states the same. Kinda redundant.
Sent from a dream.

Just an awesome Rom!

very good Rom but I prefer Ice Cold Sandwich, I got Tethering issue with this one

If the camera work i would keep the rom is you going to make a patch for it?

A very nice rom. I like it a lot, is very smooth, stable and it have a few bugs but not big issues. Hopefully the camera will be fix once HTC have released the drivers and we will have a the complete taste of HTC Sense(lite) on our devices

Primo-S Camera 3.4
Hi All,
new member and new to flashing. Proud to say my first flash ever was recently on the Inspire with the Primo-S 3.4. It works great and I love it! I've read just about all the post on the forum and still wondering when the camera will get the fix you all have been waiting for. Most recent post on here was way back in April. Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong area or missed this update somewhere along the way so please, any update or redirect would be greatly appreciated.

Camera should get fixed as soon as htc releases the driver for it which shouldn't be taking long. Devs and truly dhd followers we've been waitong for this for a long time. I'm glad you got your first flash successfully there are some other Roms that you could try in the desire hd android development section. I am running sense 4.0a simply edition by rabim and it works like a charm.

LAST MIUI 10 For A2

Someone tell me if this version of MIUI that is the most recent also works like the tutorial https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603847531
Instead of using this one that is older, and so be able to update with XIAOMI EU without any doubt https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262903997427

First off. It's a new experience and modding your phone is one the reasons for being on xda. Curiosity.
Secondly. It offers so many nifty features in comparison to stock that I actually started liking it. And the animations are really nice.
Finally. It's nice to have a change once in a while. Using the phone everyday with the same UI can get boring.
I have no idea why I took so much time to answer your question seriously.
