HTC-Dash, Android on HTC

Hello all,
I'm (noob) trying to compile a ROM for HTC Dash/ Excalibur. I have been looking @ android on HTC web site http://www.androidonhtc.com (a subsidy of xda-developers). They have a get involved page for HTC-vogue but none for dash/Excalibur. I tried git checkout but that didnt work either. I would need some help in getting through this PL.
Also if anybody has access to the ROM of the device demoed here that would be great too so i can tinker around with it to make it work on the dash. Thanks in advance.

Newbie user: HTC Magik Rom upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6

Hi all,
After spending a couple of hours searching through the forums I still can't figure out the exact steps to upgrade my phone's rom.
As I stated in the title I have an HTC Magik with Rom version 1.5 locked to operator and I want upgrade it to 1.6.
From some thread I could discover that my phone is a 32A.
From here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=565929 I read that I can apply this Rom and after I can patch it to make it run in a 32A phone. But still I don't know the exact steps to do this.
Can anyone, point me some clear threads where I can find information on how to do this or provide me the full information here, please?
Sorry if this is not the right place for this thread or if this was already asked a ton of times. I searched through the forum and also looked to the sticky threads and I couldn't find anything clear for a newbie.
Thanks.
Cheers,
Joao

Welcome to forums
Head over your devices section, you´ll find all you need there
which type of themes would you like to get? android themes? application themes?
(you can start by looking for "Metamorph" around the forum)
Head over to the hero sub forum for more help
Not to bothered about the themes really, I just want to get Froyo update

I assume you've got the i9100 model.
The first thing you want to do, is get to the correct forum. General discussion isn't going to be much help for a model-specific question.
The thread you're looking for can be found here.
If you want more information, try searching google for 'samsung galaxy s2 how to return to stock'... or check the 'stickies' in the parent forum to the thread above (stickies = useful threads that have been bookmarked by mods which will always appear at the top of the list of threads in a forum).
The stickies are marked sticky, because they're the FAQs of the forums. I actually have better things to do than hold your hand and guide you through the process. Sorry if I sound like a ****, I really hope this helped, but you've gotta read and research the topic like the rest of us.
what you need to do is flash a stock from back on your device and optionally a rooting kernel ( if you want it rooted of course. if not you can just skip this part).
there's a dedicated thread for this although I'm unsure as to which sub forum it lies. look for 'carrier-branded firmware for odin' and pick the one for o2.
Wrong forum...
Have you tried doing a factory reset? Usually fixes things like this.
