I basicly wanna root my phone and just be happy with android that looks great and i would love my phone to look like that....im already bored with android dxtop ahome and open home just dont cut it

You need to root in order to have the hero rom.
Sorry, but the current MyTouch3G cannot be rooted due to the "perfect SPL". You have to wait until someone figures out how to root the MyTouch3G before you can use any rom.

I wouldnt bother with the Hero Roms for the Magic/Sapphire/Ion/My touch
Fact is what you get in looks you lose in utillisation... all thats going to do is turn you off the device.
For a complete noob i would suggest

You wont get the shiny SenseUI but you will get a phone responds
Just my opinion

Well he can't go that way either , can't root the MyTouch. If you have the correct Magic (Rogers) has the same specs as the Hero minus the camera and headphone jack, you will get the same speed and performance as the Hero.
For the OP. For now you'll have to theme your phone for that look. Search the market for Openhome and use the Hero theme.

I have a HTC magic (with 288 RAM) and JACHeroski and the performance is acceptable. At work we have a Hero and my Magic performs as well as that one.

T-mobile ROM or HTC ROM plus other questions!

Hi all i have been using pda phones for a long time and have followed this website for quite a while...
I have an obsession for these kind of phones...so today i upgraded my phone from vario to the new vario 3.
One of the first things i plan to do is flash the ROM/Radio (not to good with the terminology).
i was wondering what people think of the t-mobile rom ENG or any other versions of it and whether i would be better off using the original htc one...i wasnt really fond of the rom for the vario.
also i havent flashed a phone in a long long time (last time was for my mda compact which was nearly 2/3 years ago!)..so i wanted to ask is there anything i should know? i have been reading the threads and i wanted to know which version of the hard spl should i use because there are several different stickies with difference hard spl
Can you update the radio serparatly from the rom? or can you do them both at the same time? and also which radio and rom would you recommend?
and also where can i learn to understand what exactly rom/radio/ext rom are exactly..i have a respectable idea of what they are but jus wanna make sure i know what im doing before i do it..
and also what does dumping a rom do?
thanks for your help
sorry if these questions have already been asked!

I've got no problems with it, actually. Sure, there's a few tweaks need installing, but I don't think there's anything serious enough to risk changing the ROM for - the device hasn't been out long enough for people to make any significant additions to it and as far as I know, there aren't any official upgrades out yet.
I've stuck the MoDaCo Vario III de-brand on, to change the icons back to sensible colours, then picked up other tweaks from this site and MoDaCo.
Easier than a ROM flash, reversible, and risk-free.
Before you rush off and flash a new ROM, ask yourself what you're actually trying to accomplish.

Any particular tweaks that you would recommend here or the modaco website?
was trying to get rid of some of the bloatware that i didnt want that t-mobile provides..but i will take ur advice and not rush into it..will wait for a month or two before i start prying around...
plus the skin/today/theme/front page (dont know what it is but it surely has to be one of those) of the htc rom and orange rom looks cool!
do you know where i can get that from?
i.e. these ones htc
(http://www.trustedreviews.com/mobile-devices/review/2007/08/10/HTC-P4550-Kaiser-Smartphone/p3)
and orange (where it says software)
(http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php/2007/09/07/htc_tytn_ii_review)
ps thanks for ur help and advice
im at work so it wont let me check the modaco website...but i will check it out when i get home
The T-Mobile ROM is about as near to the HTC one as an operator ROM is ever likely to get. The only piece of un-needed bloat was a trial version of F-Prot Antivirus; which takes a few seconds to uninstall. Even de-branding it is a pretty short job, as for once they haven't splashed pink everywhere.
The VarioIII rom from t-mob is actually very good... been using it for a few weeks, and feel no need to flash the 'proper' htc one...
tmob seem to have learnt to leave well alone... finally

cheers for ur advise u guys
any tweaks in particular u would recommend i have seen the scha'p's advanced configuration tool im gonna use that...anything else?
The first tweak I'd recommend is Paul's Debrand that I mentioned in my previous post. Gets rid of a lot of the pink and switches back to nice Windows colours.
The Trusted Mobiles picture looks like it's using the Windows Default theme.
If you tap Start, Settings, Today then Windows Default, hit OK and return to the Today screen. Should look pretty similar.
Go back to that page again and tap the Items tab at the bottom. The giant widget with the clock is the HTC Home plugin. All I've got on my Today screen are that (modified) and the Calendar.
To modify the HTC Home plugin, head over to http://www.pocketemu.com/hhc-info.html and download the HTC Home Customizer. This is a fantastic app. Poke around the site, find the themes you want, then download, install and configure it.
The other biggie you'll want is the Kaiser Tweak. Have a read through that thread, but it's fairly self explanatory once you run it.
That should give you a start, anyway. Enjoy!

quickest most stable/easy rom?

i am selling my Wing to a business lady tonight. right now i have touch it's 9.2 rom which i love but it wont suit her. the buttons are off even with duprades key fix and the spacebar lags and the rom freezes sometimes. i just need a fast stable small rom for her. all i need is HTC home and Opera and iContact which i can install all seperately. so does anyone know the most stable/user friendly rom? QUICK! =p thanks! oh and it must be a Wing rom not a herald...i dont like the keyboard fix it makes my keys lag.
I would say Open Touch 5.2 Org. Just like the standard T-Mobile ROM but with 6.1, It was pretty fast and really stable for me.
try papa new rom... it works great, just dissable UL and Batterystatus on the today screen... everything else works perfect out the box and it is very fast....
I wouldnt do papas rom its more of an advance rom. I would go with open touch 5 org rom. I think that is the closest to the original you can get. Or go with one of the open touch lite roms if you want more room.

If you want it clean just use Just2Clean (60+ Mb free)by Ivan and add .net cf3.5 and a calculator. It's fast, stable, and that way she won't get anything she doesn't want on it.
If she is a little techie point her to XDA and Freeware PocketPC Everything she could want and more.
papa for sure. I have mine setup like you want on papa's rom but it takes sometime and reg edits.
i think this guy looking for a ROM he can sell on ebay ><><><>< looks fishy to me he's posting everywhere
LOOK OUT!!!!!!!!!
If you are selling the phone, sell it with OEM soft and OS.
Otherwise, you are crossing the line of making a profit of the cook's work in this forum.
And their cost is very high....
Take your wing and revert it back to OEM spec. (My Opinion)
im not making money off selling the rom in any way guys lol. i put an ad on my local craigslist for my wing...i said its overclocked and has a custom rom running much more stable and faster than the normal wing thats all. i think it'd be messed up to revert back to stock rom before i sold it...and they would probably end up taking it back to me =p

There is nothing wrong with the original rom. It works fine if the pagepool size is fixed. In fact if you update the new TMO rom, then that's basically taken care of.

i just tried the original rom out today for the first time in like a year lol...compared to open touch...it is SO wrong. even overclocked at 286 it was soooo slow compared to 249 on open touch.
but the if the person buying the phone has a issue with the phone and cant get in contact with you and takes it to TMO what happens ??? lol.
Take her back to the official and original tmob rom... if something goes wrong she can always knock on their door. Besides that, she can't blame you having it wrecked with a cooked rom when she ruins her device herselves.

New to MyTouch3g

Like the title says I am new to the Mytouch. I rooted my Sprint Hero about a month ago and I love what I was able to get out of it. My girlfriend seeing my happiness with it has since asked me if it would make her Mytouch run better. So basically she wants me to root her phone and add a good ROM. I have herard of cyanogen and all but what would be a good daily Rom for her. Just something quicker and better on battery. I know what setcpu can do for my phone. But whats the best for a MyTouch3g? Thank you in advance.

Depends how she uses her phone... what firmware she wants (1.6 or 2.1) and either Vanilla Donut or s Sense rom
Needs more details on exactly which MyTouch 3G it is, as right now there's 4 variants
- MyTouch 3G (v1) with 32B SPL (aka Magic 32B)
- MyTouch 3G (v1) with 32A SPL (aka Magic 32A)
- MyTouch 3G LE (Limited Edition Fender, 32A)
- MyTouch 3G 1.2 (32A with headphone jack)
The last two are essentially identical, and are currently the only two MyTouch 3Gs actively sold (other than any old stock of the v1), but is also the only ones that has no real custom roms, if you want to root the last two you have to read very carefully which procedure you're using since its not the same ones as the Magic 32B/A. For example the only real working rooting process is linked in my signature for the last two and currently limited to the stock rom as being the fully functional one.
As you're probably already aware with your Sprint phone... you shouldn't just blindly flash radios/boots etc as you find them cuz it wouldn't be hard at all to brick the Fender or MyTouch 3G 1.2, by flashing a radio intended for the older MyTouches (ie: any thread that talks about Magic 32A or 32B)
I would be looking for a 1.6 build. I wanna give her something daily/stable and usable. Vanilla is fine seeing thats what she is used to. I duno what version of the MYTouch it is I know its not a Fender and it doesnt have the 3.5 mm headphone jack. When she bought it it was 1.5 and like a day later it upped to 1.6. Like with my phone I am doing my research. Dont wanna brick her phone. She would kill me and cut me in my sleep.

Since it doesn't have the 3.5mm headphone jack on top, it would be the original MyTouch 3G, which leaves you a lot of options both 32A and 32B (though you'll see a lot more choices including Cyanogenmod for 32B).
If she were to downgrade back to the 1.5 rom, I think CM has a one-click-rooting capability.
Instructions can be found here. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_MT3G/Magic_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod
After completion should have a rooted 1.6 cyanogenmod rom.

In that case i think Cyanogen is perfect because it's stable and usually gets updated every month or so and not all the time every week got to flash a new update with new problems

I have tried searching and just can't find it!

Yes I am very new to android. I managed to root mythouch 3g 1.2 to the fender rooted rom. I am just confused completely on the 2.1 roms. What is porting? I did the unlocker method with no problem. I had an epic fail trying to install a 2.1 rom! Mainly cuz I can't figure out what the heck all this porting and partitioning is. Any help would be appreciated so much!!
All that you can read here on these sits.
It must be the 32b that has messed me up. For some reason I thought the 3.5mm jack was on the 32a. That would be a good reason for that rom not working. Man I'm getting bad at this kinda stuff.

NOOOO.. the 1.2/fender are ALL 32a boards. There are NO 2.1 roms for our phones yet because the drivers/kernel source have not been released. So for now, just use some of our themed roms. They work great and look great.
Again, NO 2.1 roms will work.
I had one pull up but touch screen was not working. I'm begging to think they just threw this phone together. I see some say there r roms but they have no bt and youtube. Or am I just that lost? I can live without bt and video.

Ok...
HTC has not released the source for the new touch screen drivers or 3.5 jack. So, if you would have read ont he instructions you used to root the phone, there are no special roms for our phones yet. Thrown together? It has a brand new touch screen and a new headphone jack that was not in the older version = no way to use them yet.
So, in these instructions you rushed through, you would have read that the only roms we have are the fender rom and the themed roms.
We have one 2.1 rom working from STokes. But you have to search it down in these forums under the Mytouch 1.2/fender threads.
Not trying to be an ass here, but its obvious you did not read fully before rooting your phone.
Thanks for the help! I was misunderstanding my phone config. I thought I had the 32a. That's why I was lost! Sorry! Although I did read it....and flashed it too! That's why my phone went stupid on me! Boy did I miss a big one there! Well I do appreciate the help all the same! That cleared all my confusion up.
Ok my phone says its a 32a ships s-on G. So how is that correct and work?

.. what are you asking? You showed us what board your phone is using, sooooo what? I need better english to understand you. I have no idea what "how is that correct and work" means. I hope you're not giving us your phones information so we can hold your hand and take you through step by step.
I also don't understand how you can't find information about all this porting and partitioning. I'm a normal member like you, how was I able to find all this information on these forums and google but you can't?
Can you do me a favour and start researching yourself rather than asking a bunch of questions that are already answered. You've already posted in the wrong section, and you obviously haven't tried hard enough. You didn't know if you had a 32A or 32B at first, which is the most basic thing of all. This is why people like you brick their phones. You totally just guessed which board you have.
Then you complain about the touch screen issues when it's all explained in the process of how to root it, wow. Get ready for flames if you continue to fail like this. Please read things more thoroughly and post in the right section.
What I guess I am trying to ask is the G or H relevent in any way? I understand the boards. I have been told It was a 32b then when I rooted it I rooted the wrong file. Which would have bricked it. That is why I am asking all the questions. It works fine with the fender root. It just doesn't seem to work loading any 2.1 rom at all. And yes I have tried 32a and 32b. The 32b 2.1 loads without the touch screen working. 32a 2.1 doesn't do a thing, just freezes. Does that help explain it a little better for you?

You got a 32b 2.1 rom to boot??? which one please. If you can get it to boot, we can then flash the kernel over, reboot, and get things working.
I wasnt flaming you, I was mearly pointing out the fact that every single thing you asked, you would have had to have known before rooting the phone.
Yours says G... which makes no sense considering its a 32a HTC branded phone (maybe the 1.2's are different? because the fender is an HTC branded board.
We here, just get tired of people that say they have searched... yet its blatently obvious it doesnt.
Now that stokes has given you the 2.1 rom..... Now we have to hear you ask 15 times now why the Bluetooth and Wifi wont work.....
Stokes 2.1 loaded for me and it is 32b. Just the touch screen didn't work. I would say if it wasn't for my phone it shouldn't have had the droid saying touch to start. None of the others did that at all. Here is where I got it from.

Oh now.. we have a fuly working stokes port working minus BT with touch screen. I was gona post it fo ryou but max file limit here is to small. Tomorrow when im not drunk Ill search a link down or get stokes to give me direct link. Im running it right now andf other then BT and youtube not working, it is so purdy with the live wallpapers. with the extra 32a ram, it runs just as well as the nexus one. If you have talked to stokes, ask him for his 1.41 Fender/LE port. Full wipe, Skip google sign in and sign in through market for sync. After that you will be very happy .

I have a mytouch 32b and im putting out a challenge to see if anyone can make a fully working rom like this one in this video asap to be crown the best developer in the world.
this means the bluetooth, wifi, cam, video, touch screen, and volume, calling, text, and everything else for the 32b need to be working for you to be known as the best developer in the world.
also im putting out another challenge. I look and looked and i cant fnd any rom thats not based off of any other phone besides from tat which is impossible to get their roms. besides tat rom all the roms out there is based off of the mytouch slide, hero, or nexus. I want a rom that fully works and is not based off of any phone out their and mind blowing cool. i want it to be available to the mytouch 32b.
for the both of these challenges if it dosent work with mytouch 32b then u cant be mark as the best developer in the world. but im not making a rule saying u cant make a version for 32a and one for 32b.

are you some type of idiot?
no offense not trying to be rude but this is primarily for 32a sapphire development and really your request is not even possible with the hardware on the phones we have - do you think 3d effects can be possible with the same crappy screen?
obv not - do some homework and stop making requests that are ridiculous

obv not - do some homework and stop making requests that are ridiculous

it is possible. if you look at the nexus roms 3d gallery and the video you notice they both act the same. all u have to do is some how convert the code for the 3d gallery to the main home screen and trick it into thinking the icons for the apps is pics. then rewrite the code so when u selected an icon it will do what u want it to
anyways about the hardware being crappy thats kinda a major point to this challenge. anyone can make a great rom on the best hardware with a little bit of time but only the best can make a great rom for crappy hardware.

thanks i will see what i can do but this is still a challenge so anyone can post their rom on here and we will see what comes of this challenge
ROM(e) wasn't built in a day! Anything's possible with the right amount of resources. If you're willing to fund it, I'll be willing to do it Talk is cheap, except on my Rogers bill!

if i knew how to i would make a rom i would make a rom like this
youtube.com/watch?v=7SImOIMcMlk
But i cant so i have to make this challenge to get a rom like that/
I have a mytouch 32b and im putting out a challenge to see if anyone can make a fully working rom like this one in this video asap to be crown the best developer in the world.
this means the bluetooth, wifi, cam, video, touch screen, and volume, calling, text, and everything else for the 32b need to be working for you to be known as the best developer in the world.
also im putting out another challenge. I look and looked and i cant fnd any rom thats not based off of any other phone besides from tat which is impossible to get their roms. besides tat rom all the roms out there is based off of the mytouch slide, hero, or nexus. I want a rom that fully works and is not based off of any phone out their and mind blowing cool. i want it to be available to the mytouch 32b.
for the both of these challenges if it dosent work with mytouch 32b then u cant be mark as the best developer in the world. but im not making a rule saying u cant make a version for 32a and one for 32b.

lol nice. but ya its a challenge and sadly i dont have the money. the main reason why i made this challenge is it seems like everyone who makes roms only makes them so their phone is like a newer one that just came out. kinda like a keep up with the Joneses thing. i want it where we have roms that is so good that the new phones that are coming out will try to keep up with us and question why a few people that makes roms on their spear time is better then people who are paid to make it for new phones.
anyways if u are worry about money the person with the best rom will be known for the rom and just like Cyanogen he has people donate to him and if he wanted to he most likely could get ads on his site. like if this challenge go well then most likely there will be another one down the road and maybe that other one down the road will have money but in order for there to be another one this one has to go well
