I am new to this forum and apologize for my noobness in advance as i wasn't sure either to post this here or in the Android Software and Hacking General section and i appreciate any comments as i understand i am new here and have contributed nothing to this forum. Here is my dilemma, i recently purchased a t mobile g1 from a friend about two weeks ago because i was interested in the android OS. Being in the UK it is locked to the T-mobile network which my existing sim is orange. I understand that there was a developers ROM that was released (codenamed holiday (adp 1.1)) which allows other networks to be used on the g1 e.g orange etc as its a developer version. I was wondering what compatible ROMS for the g1 (htc dream) that would allow me to use my orange sim. Again i really do appreciate nay comments and help i receive and understand i have not contributed to this community and it is highly rude to ask for something when given nothing.
You're gonna get a LOT better answers if you ask around in the G1 forum:

I haven't used the G1 for quite some time, so I can't help you that much, but the guys in the forum (plus the handy search button) should take care of anything you need to know.

The HTC Titan (PPC6800) is out in Canada already on the carrier Telus and soon will be with Sprint and other carriers in the United States. As some may know, over at ppcgeeks, we have made great strides with the 3.x roms that Helmi_c and others from this forum have been gracious enough to help us with. Aside from getting WM6 on the Apache (6700), which any help there is greatly appreciated, we are starting to move to the Titan.
Unfortunately, the Titan is causing us some issues as far as even getting a rom dump off of it. As you would suspect GrabIt and mtty do not work. We have had some progress using pdocread.exe, but it will not verify the partition sizes or dump the partitions. We are also trying to figure out if we are going to have to start dealing with the SPL and CID. Both of these are pretty foreign to us since we have never had to deal with them before.
Anyway, my point is that it would be nice to get a section for the Titan set up so that we may start development on that device. As always, the knowledge of the members of this forum is greatly appreciated and hopefully those that are willing to help can get us going in the right direction.
Thanks.
i may not know what to do but i do want to see a new device her and also because i will be switching to sprint and getting the titan
Yeah. It would be nice to get some more interaction between here and ppcgeeks.com. Not to steal members away from either site, but xda is more GSM and geeks is more CDMA.

I agree as well, I will be switching from fido to telus and therefore switching from a softbank x01ht TyTN to a telus htc p4000 TITAN. It would be great to have a separate forum and wiki section for the TITAN.
Although i do not have much experience with xda development, i have been taking apart and putting together computers and working with software since i was in grade 5. I can learn software langauges and i would like to contribute to development of the TITAN rom repertoire.
Also having a separate area to discuss possible roms, accessories like cases, and other such topics would be great instead of trying to post it or having to dig through the TyTN forums.
Ok, I dont wanna be "That new guy that doesn't use the search". I used it and haven't been able to find a relevant thread.
I am brand spanking new to the Android scene, but I have lurked around a couple of boards, and have been doing a little research. I opted to buy a Dev G1 for my first android phone. I have always used WinMo.
My question is probably a simple one for someone who is familiar. With the Dev phone, will I be ready to install and use themes out of the box? Or will I need to do anything special to it. It is my understanding that these Dev phones are basically "rooted" out of the box.
I appreciate your help in advance!
Heloo everyone. I just registered here at these forums because I have just got a gift from a friend. I got a brand new HTC Touch Pro that is made for Sprint. It doesnt have a sim-card which is another thing that I would like to discuss, but for now, I would like to get some help on upgrading my OS to something else. It has windows 6.1 I believe, or 6.0, I am not sure, but its not very stable.
I would like to know if any one can give me the most simple way to update to windows 6.5 or any other OS you might think is better than windows mobile 6 or 6.1.
I already read about roms, and downloading them, but all i get is links to other websites and the files that I am supposed to download are confusing me because they said its for the touch diamond, but i have a touch pro.
If any one can help me with this issue I would greatly appreciate it.
I apologize in advance for my noobiness and I appreciate any help in advnace.
Thank you and happy new year all.

Welcome to XDA & enjoy your stay (read & search & flash)
I am a little confused about asking questions concerning the HTC Hero on Sprint in part because there are so many different versions of it and also because there is nowhere to post for the phone period. My question concerns rooting the device that I plan on buying today and whether or not that is a smart move considering all the talk about updates to 2.0. If I root the device will the same firmware be available through this site or will I be stuck with 1.5? Either way there is also many guides to rooting and I am wondering if anyone has suggestions perhaps the best one? thank you for your time
Welcome aboard

While I am not a new user, my Dad is brand new to Android. I recently (Father's Day gift) bought him an HTC Inspire 4G and I want to find out if someone has a suggestion for him to learn about his phone in general and Android in particular. I realize there will be a lot of different websites, but I would request ones where he won't have to do much beyond ask a question and get an answer, without being berated for not searching pages and pages first, as I've seen on XDA. If someone's knows of a good newbie website, let me know.
Thanks,
Taguiera
