Hello Developers,
I've recently purchased a HTC HD2 device. I'm unable to update it's ROM please could you help me? And also how should i verify my device on web, as it's been purchased online from ebay?
Hey there,
welcome!
What have you tried to do so far? Flash a custom rom or an official one?
Your HD2 is capable of much more than running the native winmo6.5 that comes with the device.
Head over to the HD2/Leo forum here where you will find many good guides on flashing custom roms, android, wp7 etc.
Do plenty of reading before flashing anything other than official roms and understand the processes involved so you know what to do should you do anything wrong

Hi, I am a novice in android.But I am a longtime educated user of computers. Recently I bought a Motorola Atrix 4G mobile with 1.2.6 Rom. I already flashed it several times. Now I am on GingerBlur 4.5, i.e. ATT 4.5.91. Still I don't understand so many things like,
what is the function of a radio image file.
Can anybody teach me ? Thanks in advance....
Why are u asking for it, on this forum are so lot of topics like ur question.
Could you please give the links for this topic? I said I am new to ROM modding and to android as well. But I am a quick learner. I will soon be able to contribute to this forum with your supports. Thanks and regards....
hi htc desire s fans,
i just bought my device a month ago, and i got crazy when i saw the news that said that desire s will receive htc sense 3.0 and android 3.3.5,but i am sick of waiting, then i saw the guys here talking about installing thesis updates on there devices without waiting for the official update but i can't understand the steps they provide. so if any one can kindly explain in details how to install this updates or refer to a thread with the same topic will be great.
also a brief about the meaning of the custom ROM will be appropriated
thank you guys.

I am not so much advanced and that is why i want to ask if it is possible to do S-On after rootig and flashing new ROM - and of course root and custom ROM would stay. I want to know that for the case i fire eMMC chip on rooted device and in service i would want repair under warranty. You know maybe they just take a look at S-on and say warranty is ok.
So is it possible or is that a nonsence?
Custom rom explained as
Stock ROM
A stock ROM is the version of the phone's operating system that comes with your phone when you buy it.
Custom Rom
A custom ROM is a fully standalone version of the OS, including the kernel (which makes everything run), apps, services, etc - everything you need to operate the device, except it's customized by someone in some way.
So what does the "customized" part mean? Since Android is open source, developers are free to take stock ROMs, modify them, strip them of garbage, optimize them, add things, and pretty much do whatever their imagination and skills allow.
Firstly, sorry if this is in the wrong section, didn't know really where to start
Hi all, i needs to find anyone that is willing to develop or modify HTC Salsa Roms, currently i have Stock which cannot be flashed back and i am using a Chinese variant, with google patch to get maps etc. on O2.
Currently i cannot find chefs creating or doing anything with the HTC Salsa software and need to find a chef here willing to help us lonely users out.
Thanks in advance
Hello ? I'm frustrated so much, I've been trying to download custom roms for my mobile for almost three days now with no luck. I honselsty don't fully get why they're so important after a root, I mean if didn't install them would I be risking bricking my phone in the future? I'm a kind of a noob at this, so any advice or pointers would be so helpful and greatly appreciated ? Thanks.
Also I've seen all the threads on here concerning HTC desire 728 and custom roms, tried the methods there but they didn't work. I know starting a new thread about an old issue is a kind of a drag but I hoped someone would see this and answer me.

Greetings and welcome to assist. If you are happy with just root then staying as you are is perfectly safe and there is no need to flash a custom rom. Most people flash a custom rom just to get the latest updates or a couple of new features.
If you have the dual sim version then most of the custom roms on xda will not work for your variant as it is different hardware. I did find this thread that I think has a custom rom for your variant
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-desire/general/urgent-help-htc-desire-728-malfunction-t3388534
Please always make certain that you only flash a custom rom that is compatible with your variant or you may brick your phone
Good Luck

Hello mighty XDA nation.
Out of a pure nostalgy, I have bought HTC Universal, as new, from Ebay. It has stock WM 5 rom without any modifications. I wanted to unlock it, flash it etc...
But I have found out, that the most of the links to the necessary tools, roms etc are dead. I did some software archeology with little success.
Yes, I have searched this forum, yes, I have searched the general wiki about Universal.
Do you have somewhere still the necessary software to unlock, update, flash etc the eternal Universal?
I am not even sure someone will read this, but if yes, please please send me that software.
Thanks a lot!
Hey, I read this in 2020, what exactly do you need?
