newbie lots with htc snap - General Questions and Answers

hi, I'm french so excuse my english.
I purchased an htc snap (in france with Bouygtelecom) this week and when i wanted to install somme little software like spoontools for example, I couldn't use it.
so i searched all day to find informations and now i know that:
1/ I have to flash the hard spl
2/ I have to dump my rom before flashinf it
3/ Then i have to flash the new rom
BUT my questions are:
1/how to dump the rom for this particular phone (i could find informations about touch etc... but not about the htc snap)
2/ Can I use any ROM on any phone or do i have to flash a particular kind of ROM specialy developped for the snap?
3/ If i can use ever rom wich one do i have to choose?
4/ How can i be sure i won't brick my phone (even if i'm used with PC and windows i'm not so good with informatic and it seems a bit frightenning ...)
sorry for all these questions but i'm quite lost

Welcome to forum
Have a look on this special section for your device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=499
Over there you can find ROM´s to upgrade, as long as you follow the instructions all should be ok.
Don´t try to use another devices ROM!!!
Good luck,

thanks, i saw in this section that there is not much things about the snap.
meanwhile, do you know why i've got this message when i try to use g alarm (for example , it's the same with some other softwares):
Galarm.exe
NotSupportedException
à Microsoft.AGL.Common.MISC.HandleAr()
à System.Window.Forms.Control.InitInstance()
à System.Windows.Forms.Control..ctor()
à System.Windows.Forms.Button..ctor()
à Galarm.frminstall.InitializeComponent()
à Galarm.frminstall..ctor()
à Galarm.Program.main()
It did the same with spoondo, spoon alarm, pocket wake up...
What can i do?

anyone can telle me?

roms are custom made for a surden device roms from other devices will never work
best case they will refuse to flash onto the device
worst case they will make the device into an expensive brick

IGO 8 and Win 6.5 Rom

Maybe im writing this in the wrong topic, im not sure...
In the past week i installed 4 different rom on my xperia , and non of them working with IGO 8. I installed 4-5 different data.zip , and sys file , without any success
What im doing wrong?
You´d had better chance in XPERIA Forum. (and with search function)
And iGo8 works great on Xperia. There's just a trick to get the GPS recognized by iGo.
As ChefChaudart said : look in the xperia section
"Fou afez du à l'ail ? Le chef il feut du à l'ail !" (private French joke, cannot translate it)
Thank You!

Delete your Serial number for privacy, I think your P/N indicates you have a T-Mobile model? Perhaps try one of the ROMs for that?
Alternatively, install HardSPL on your device. This is a custom bootloader which will allow you to flash generic ROMs. There is a link that will help you in my signature, I will help if you have further questions
Good luck!
ofcourse T-Mobile from UK operator ? i will try to instal, if he not run i will try the other wersion of operator from UK.
now the fun all time is runnin in bootloader and hace error ( becouse i was trying to upload incompatible soft)
i only found in xdda T-mobile Germany,i will try to instal them, maybe it's works.
NO it's not work, allways it's one problem 294( and what i found it's not compatible with my fone) now i have SPL 3.03 and the info is this i cant loud the HSPL on 3.03 im must do a downrage (?) tu older wersion and then but how, how i can't upload any of ROMs. uh it's crazy,
OK Now i try many of Roms:
Official Roms ofcourse
WWE 1.66.405.2
WWE 3.14.405.2
T-Mobile (DE) 3.14.111.1
T-Mobile(EN) 3.14.119.1 ( of HTC official website)
Vodafone DE 3.14.162.5
Vodafone UK 3.14.161.3
And always he stop on 1% and black lcd, and ofcourse 294 problem. Just only service? only soft it's for me 100PLN it's expensive..
Maybe any sugesstion ? i open for all
On polish forums find the PN the man had this same htc Hd2 with these same PN number and it's from Norwey.... now i download the ROM For Norwey from Xda and i'll Try.
Ok i write Hew Post becouse it's will be more visible
