newbie with raphael (looking for a rom)

Hi everybody
I recived my new raphael a few minutes ago
I already flash hard-spl and unlocked it
now I try to find the latest rom from htc (I hate the at&t roms), but I cant find the latest.
plz be nice with this poor noob and gimme a link or some guide to find the rom
I already search in the original roms section on xda-wiki, but the roms has no date. I am a little dizzy.
thanks

hey dude well anyways...why dont u try the latest AT&T ROM before u go on with a new homemade ROM? i know u said u dont like the AT&T one but at try this one, its ALOT better than the one ur got with u FUZE, ull see some major improvements even with reception of radio 1.12.25.19 and with speed, and some tips, after u went through the setup of windows mobile quickly soft reset(next to the mini usb port) and u wont have all that AT&T Bloat, trust me itll run ALOT quicker all though u need to go in WINDOWS folder and find, MSFT_Security, Opera9.5 and of course TF3D Registry cabs, install those and ull be set from there, good luck man
and heres the URL for the ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487994

I love this forum
thanks I am downloading that radio
(I hate the lot of crap from the at&t radios )

Welcome,
I started with Stock ROM's so as to get an idea of what HTC ships "out of the factory". Have a look at this link ... there's tons of info to get you started.

The date is typically not posted on the page; the start of a thread usually lends a clue as to when the ROM released. The table is "loosely" organized by HTC ROM version and/or OS build.
This is the last ROM that HTC released:
HTC|RAPH100|HTC__001|5.05.405.1|1.11.25.01|52.58.25.30|20764|1.4.3 1.90
The thread about the ROM will sometimes include links to country specific versions.

thanks I flashed that version
I try with AT&T rom, but the touchflo3D has that color and at&t looking, I can't use that thing.

Req: tutorials

Hi everyone,
I have to say that reading all the posta i'm a little confused.
I think that could be usefull for all to makes some sticky posts with the tutorials.
A tutorial about hoe to make a backup of the original rom
another one about how to flash
about how to root
Thanks

Be aware that some of this is specific to the HTC Dream and not HTC Magic / Sapphire

That's the reason why! We need specific tutorials for MAGIC.
For example I'd liek to try some coocked ROMS on my Voda Magic.
But I need to do first a backup of my original ROM so i can revert back to the factory ROM.
But I'm a little confused about it and a tutorial would help me much!
Just waiting....

Tutorials!
I would like to see some of these tutorials too!
I have recently changed ova from wm6 and used to flash my old phone all the time!
I want to see some tutorials specific to the magic and sum roms specific to the magic.
Or is the hardware similar enough to use the g1 roms?? I have read you can, but i would have thought the magic would have some hardware that the g1 doesnt??
I dont wanna miss out any features!
Can this thread be stickied! plz op!

I would also like to have tut. specific for Magic rooting too.

great idea
+1 for tut.

thanks for the link daldroid. this has really helped an android n00b like me
it would be nice to know what on the tutorial page works for the magic. HardSPL obviously won't, but does nandroid if you have root ?
I know the answers are littered around this forum but would be nice to have a central source. ho humm - maybe I will in a few weeks if my kids leave me alone for 5 mins ........

1) Use the search, if you can't find what you need goto step 2.
2) Create a thread but make sure you post in the right Section and since this is "Sapphire android development" you only post here if you got something to provide the development with if not then "general" is probably the right one! When you create a thread "in the right section" be sure you give all the information you can give when asking for help. Me for once don't wanna ask you 1001 question to be able to help you so always give all the info you can. In this case give us the info about your phone what kind of board it is 32A/B HBOOT and RADIO.
And just a heads up: if the wiki is to technical you should most probably not even get started on flashing anything into your mobile since you will probably just brick it if you don't know what you're doing!

sorta not true....when i first started i was scared as f*ck and thought for sure after my first rom flash that i had bricked my MT3G adn I'm a EE...we should welcome noob's with open arms, because their interest is what will propel android as a "fave" amongst consumers.
Ok, now after getting off my soap box, Mazlano, go to the following site..
1) www.theunlockr.com
2) STUDY www.theunlockr.com
that has all the base information in well concise format that will help you go from a stock magic to one that you can flash Roms.

at the threat of not wanting to sound angry, those comments are f*cking stupid.
1) its OUR right to go to any forum / thread / site we come across on teh internet
2) I simply passed along a site to a newbie where they could find concise information all in one spot with videos to getting them feeling comfie with unlocking their phone, thats what worked for me. ITS MY RIGHT to disseminate any information i choose
3) Grow the F*ck up. I am here because once i became comfie with the ins and outs of my phone, unlockr.com had nothing to offer me and i'm sure that the originator of this thread will find the same thing out.
I see why some of the devs get tired of coming here. Instead of helping someone out and leaving it be some of you trifling f&cks are out to berate and belittle others..leave it be...the guy is new...from one fresh noob to another i gave information that helped me. If you had information that could have helped him that would be concise on XDA that i don't know about, just offer the f*cking information and move on...

Comments were indeed stupid. The forementioned site is a good start for a
beginner. Easy and will get him ready for this forum. Let that site take the burden of rooting because this site can be overwhelming with too many opinions and choices and advices. oh... and menacing dickheads.

Yeah, I have to agree. Theunlockr helped my with its step-to-step tutorial to get the recovery img onto my magic - I found also several guides in the forum as well as I consulted the wiki, but the guide there (with video) is even understood by an idiot
Search, Google, Try if you're 99.99% sure of what you're doing. And have fun

are you serious?
Ok, I would have posted the unlockr also just because I was a noob just like the OP and any forum post where confusing. And the unlockr has hands on videos that tell you step by step. Who cares what site someone uses, and why would someone want to use XDA with members like you.

cause i try and help people here if you check my posts not direct them elsewhere
just looking after this place cause people can't read the rules on xda

thanks for the site buddy. and way to go looking out for noobs! ... and the other dude against advertising... this site is free isn't it? you dont have to pay to be a member or anything, so directing noobs to other sorces of info wont cost u a dime.
You can donate to the rom devs sure, but dont think they dont post their roms on other forums...
and btw, the unlockr really helpd!
and i speak from exp, when i say that the some of the high ranking members of xda tend to divert u off into another web of confusion rather than just help you.
saw it on the universal forum, saw it on the x1 forum. and here we are again! but its cool,,, its better than no help so i am greateful!

Gotta be honest, I'm surprised this thread hasn't been locked and/or deleted and the poor OP laughed outta the forum.
Good luck, OP.

im a noob

so im a noob in the wm world im self taught a little bit. so im hoping someone out there can help a noob out and let me bounce ideas off you and ask technical questions. im getting ready to flash my first rom so prayers are welcome. anyway let me know if your willing to be asked tons of learning questions.

Good luck!
As long as you follow the instructions all should be fine

thats what ive been doing im doing fine but stuff like how to find what build of manila im running for instance

ok so i FINALLY figured out what manila i have (2.1). getting ready to flash my first rom and i found plenty of the. i finally found the one i like and cant find the download anywhere. Couldnt find downloads of any I liked actually. why is this so difficult to get the stupid file i want. if anyone knows were i may find it please give me a link to the download, not just some thread about it, i've almost given up completely.

Your going to have to be more specific. I found the download page but there are 2 versions for that specific rom. The difference is in the version of sense installed. One has sense 2.1, the other has 2.5. The page is here. I would suggest you look at the change log & support threads listed underneath the links for each rom in order to decide which is the one you wanted. They are both graphically (and probably functionally) different from each other but they are both windows 6.5. Hope this helps. Oh and by the way, welcome to XDA. Questions are always welcome here.
