i had my htc around 5 months and it broke, so i got a new one from virgin and it came today.
ive just switched it on and it had a virgin media quick link. so i went to delete it and its got a little lock where the X should be.
anyone know how to get rid of this?
xx ty xx
oh and to top it all off its got a ****ty virgin logo as my phone loads up... wish i still had my old one
=[
This will be cooked into the rom I guess, you can flash it and that may solve your problem. Maybe if you unlock you phone.
there were some cabs floating around to remove the OEM links, not sure if they were for Virgin or not, but you should consider a custom ROM ..
Also , this really should have been in Q&A ....
sorry for not posting in the right place..
whats a custom rom? is better than just installing loads of cabs?
please im really stupid can you explain. ill be you best friend

I've trying to read through the forum but I cant seem to find a solid ROM that everyone agrees on... So whats the best ROM out there?
Come on lol
Ow gd, it is starting here also... Try the ROM's yourself! Try and try until you find something you like. Evereybody has different wishes, so there is no 'perfect' ROM that suits everybody's wishes. Read through the specs and see which ROM you like most.
i did an easy search on xda dev google for kaiser best rom. found this. next time, please use all the great tools that we have.

the tilt and kaisers aren't that much different.
helmi also created some cooked tilt roms, but everyone says it all before, no one is all going to agree on one rom. If you don't want to go through all the trouble loading the roms like many of us have, then stick with the HTC shipped rom. There is a reason why HTC made it the standard.
I have to tell you, the stock AT&T Tilt ROM (once you delete all the craplets) actually has excellent performance and is very stable.
It blows the doors off of anything I ever had on my Hermes!

The tilt and kaiser come with touch flow straight from the factory
also, please learn what a caps lock key is
I use the BigStorage htc one on my tilt. I must say, it's just as stable as the at&t rom, has more room, and I'm not missing any apps or anything that I would want or need. It's got a lot of the registry hacks I'd want, updated black keyboard, PIE fix, and a TON of room. Kudos to the developer.

I agree with you.
But I want to know which craplets you are talking about and how to remove them?
I want to remove the followings:
"Get TeleNav" message from "Today"
"Media Net",
AT&T Mall;
AT&T Music
All the games
Cellular video
Actually, I want to remove any AT&T paid services.
Thank you in advance.
What is "cingular pre_midlets"? Can I remove it from program
In setting/syste/remove program, I can see an entry for "Cingular pre_midlets".
What happen if I remove it? What's that one for? for java programs?
Thanks.

I also would like to know
hard reset you tilt and when the additional phone customizing starts, soft reset.
Hello Everybody.
I bought my tilt from ebay, and the software was already customized with a ROM. I didnt know, but i knew it was different because, I have 8525 and the ROM is not the same.
My question is, that I updated my Tilt with a new ROM from Dutty's I think its the 04/29/08 version. Theres nothing wrong with this ROM, but I will like to go back to the one I had.
I want to go back to the ROM that I had, and the version is from Feb and it was TOUCH.
I dont know, if the TOUCH ROM is compatible with the Tilt, but that was installed on my phone before I upgraded to the new one for Dutty's.
If can someone help me to find this ROM thanks.

Yup! Hard Reset The Device By Pressing The the two keys on top of the Ie & email icon at the same time click on the reset button with the stylus then right after u do the restore and you set up the wm6 set up the device starts up and soft reset.
**** News Flash ****
Unbloated stock ROM all the way.... (For me anyway)
i'm sorry to the rest of you

i have a LOT of iphone crap that i downloaded of rapidshare for my hermes, i assume it works with the tilt as well but being as i flash a new rom every day i haven't even bothered to check it. click the link in my sig (my files) and download both files from the iphone folder. i have to agree with the others though you shouldn't ruin your perfectly fine piece of work on a POS look-a-like even if yours still works better
I have an ATT Tilt, and im getting fed up with it. Ever since i updated the new rom for it, it randomly shuts down, freezes constantly, and email and things like that dont work... It consistently freezes every time i get a call, on top of just completely randomly while in my pocket...
So my real question: Would getting a custom rom fix these problems at all, or is it not worth it to risk damaging the phone? The only custom rom i have seen around is Manila i think, if there are others which ones do you think are best?
Thanks much for your help!

Your questions one at a time:
Would a custom ROM fix these problems?
Yes, probably. But might lead to new ones.
Is it worth the risk?
Only you can answer that. However, if an official ROM has produced the problems you mentioned, I would try to reflash the same official ROM first - redownload the file and everything just to make sure you didn't get a bad flash.
As long as you use HardSPL, flashing ROMs should be pretty safe. But you will more than likely void your warranty. Just read a bunch before you flash. I would start with
This: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396922
and then once you have that on your machine you need to surf around
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=378
to get a good idea of what ROMs are out there for Kaiser. I saw five or so on the first page.
Which ROM is best?
Again, only you can answer that. Try a bunch and you will probably find a good one.
there are alot more roms available you will need to look under the "kaiser" rom section and you will find a pot of gold
Thanks for ur help guys.. Ill check out those links and all the roms once i get home today..
hey jeordy,
I am having the same exact problems with my tilt. I had to unlock it as I use tmobile. If you come up with any solutions please post here. I hope you do.
Thanks

Don't about free unlocking but to change the splash screen, you need an engineering SPL (which it looks like you have) and a compatible image.
You need a special image, inctructions are here:
http://ostebaronen.dk/change-splash-screen-on-htc-magic/
I have a feeling that would be a quick result from Google though - plus it has been discussed a ton on this forum. Please search first next time.

If you want to get rid of the "rogers" on the back of your phone then order a new back plate for your phone. Do a google search. Lots of online stores that sell them.

no i wanted to get rid of the rogers logo that appears when turning on the phone..but if its just an image then i dont mind
anyway, i searched but thought it would be easier to just ask..
Well, since I see you have a rooted phone and, I assume you know how to do adb, check post no. 10 of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554046
I unzipped the file and for safety purposes, changed the name to splash1_HTC_magic.rgb565
then using fastboot and connected to the computer, I set this command:
fastboot flash splash1 splash1_HTC_magic.rgb565
That will remove the Rogers 1st screen and show the HTC Magic, as shown on the first post of the linked thread.
Hi guys, I am new to this forum, also I am new on Android phones since I used to be an iGuy..
A week ago I bought a brand new HTC Evo 4g, but I didnt want to connect it on sprint so I pay 60 bucks to get it flashed, so I can Use it with boostmobile.
The flash was-is great, the phone is working perfect on Boostmobile.
So in what I need help is in that I want to install a new theme, a have been reading and to install a new theme the phone has to be root or something like that.
My question is if I install a new theme do I loose my flash?
Please guys I need help.
I dont have an evo, but rooting just allows you to access more things in your phone, and break through the security that the companies put on it. It allows you to install themes, different roms, etc.
But if I root my phone do I loose my Flash? because I dont want to pay 60 more bucks to get my phone unlock
Not sure, but I doubt rooting would revoke your unlock.
Thanks man
Before do anything I am going to wait for more opinions

no. my evo is on boost and when i first got it i struggled with that question as well but decided to gamble and it paid off because now i have an evo on boost fully rooted with nand unlocked running fresh evo 3.5.0.1 themed with riptide9s colornclear and slayers mods. i just did all of this in the last couple days. this site is awsome you just gotta take your time and look and be willing to take a chance or two and work through the issues. if you need some advice ill do what i can but im a noob too so dont expect too much lol. btw does your picture mail work?
Once your phone is registered on boost it will stay as long as you pay the bill
even if i do a factory reset?

New theme? Just go ahead and slap a new launcher on your phone to begin with. ADW and launcher seem to be the greatest out there although others are catching on. These are the simplest form of themeing you could ADW being easier as of now. Detailed stuff like font change and notification bars can be done via rooting or custom roms. Font changes are really easy via an app called type fresh and if rooting for your phone is a one click option I think that would be sweet. Either ways getting a custom cynogen 7 rom for yourself would be best!

yes, a factory reset will just reset the data and settings on your phone back to the way they were when you first turned it on. it will still be connected to the same mobile network with the same phone number
also for future reference this post should probably have gone into the HTC Evo section
First I'd like to say I don't think this is the right place for my question but I cant post where I think it should go so hopefully somebody here can help me.
I want to put custom rom onto my nokia lumia 710 but dont know which would be the best on to use I've seen three so far in my looking around the site the RainbowMod, metro^7 rom, Lumiatrix 4.2 ROM. I like the look of the RainbowMod from the video on youtube that I'm not aloud to link, but I want to know from somebody that has experience with custom roms to give me some advice on which one to go for. I haven't unlocked my phone yet plan on doing this to night or tomorrow when ever I get some time to sit and do it without been called away in the middle of doing it.
Also from the look of the video I linked it looks like you can install apps from different marketplaces is this right and if it is can this be done with all custom roms???
Any other advice you can give me or links to the best tuts on each step so I don't follow a sub par tut by not knowing the best place to look for one.
Thanks in advance
Pacina
Can nobody here give me any advice I was told this was the best site for this type of thing:laugh: I'm guessing not
So basically even the old HD2 has WM7 Roms and I tried all of them.
You are right with a custom ROM you can download everywhere else too, some Roms are unlocked already and your windows nokia 710 will be just great.
First of all a backup off your stuff will be good because you will lose everything on your phone then.
And I think you will need the activation key for your phone again after that.
