Hey all,
I've seen here and there the concept of repartitioning and even saw mentioned in the dev thread that if you use TNT Lite 3.0.0+ that you should repartition with the settings of 2048 and 0 as the options or I guess that it's highly recommended. I guess I'm trying to figure out why and if I should take that step.
As it stands, I have no issues on my tab. Running TNTLite 4.3.0. System runs great. Just wonder what the caveats (if any) to not partitioning would be. Thanks for educating this noob, been trying to read and find more info on it and haven't found any.
Hey all, just got my answer in IRC, so I'm good to go.

Hi guys,
So I downloaded 2 Roms of 6.1 found in this forum (the one from Dr Martin and the one from fireburned)
Now before flashing I have a question about the USPL.
I bought my phone factory unlocked. Do I still need to run that procedure before changing the rom?
Secondly, how do I backup my current ROM? (in case of it going bad)?
Thanks
mystical thing called search function
my recommendation, YES! but if you had used the search, you would had found out the answer yourself.... well, we all where new to this too, but a little bit of interest on the matter is really helpfull if you want to learn about it. asking "already-hunderts-of-time-anwsered" questions is just too lazy.
sorry, if i'm a little rude at you, but in the last time such question where asked just too much... folks, this is a forum, not a hotline!!
for your second question, do a search, and you'll found out why you don't need to backup the rom. if you still want to backup after this, if think, you'll find the answer on how to do it in the wiki...
If there is a SHIP ROM for your carrier, no real reason to backup since you can revert to this.
You will most likely need to use uSPL to temporarily SuperCID your device to allow it to flash any ROM as they are CID-locked. Unlocked simply means it does not have a network/SP lock on it.

I understand, but if it's something that comes up often, maybe the mods should make a static post about it? Thats usually to avoid ppl asking the same questions all the time..
Thanks for your input though
good point about the sticky. or we could add it to the wiki, i'll see what i can do in the next few days, but anyone is invited to contribute too (now i'm gettin' lazy, hihi)

Same situation here and I had to run the USPL proc to get the new ROM onto my device.
Thanks for all the input
I actually followed Dr Matin Gonzo's guide to update to his rom and it worked perfectly,
I even got to backup my old rom (using the wiki + the SDA Unlock tool)

I don't mind helping you, let me know what you need!
Hello guys!
I have installed Cyanogenmod 3.7.0 (android 2.3.7 version). It's MALGDR installed.
I want back to stock, but I'm not sure how.
I have downloaded the ROM from local HTC-site.
The rom is put on SD-card, so should I erase everything on SD card and make a partiinion FAT32 or can I do this AFTER I have installed WinMO 6.5?
Or could this occur some corrupt data or something during installl? Any help is highly appreciated.
Also, when I will start installing. Should I use the method on using VOLUME DOWN + POWER ON button, to get into that tri-colour screen and then plug in USB, wait for it to connect and then just drive from computer?
When I run the ROM from the computer it is like random rom install. It has to detect the device etc.. for it to install. This will not be any problem?
Thanks alot guys. I really hope someone with education around this will help me out.
Please any help!!
would like to give it a bump, so perhaps someone can help me.

I'd be very surprised if you were the 1st person to want to go from a Magldr booting ROM back to WM, so the answers you need are probably already there. I pointed you there purely because you'd be surprised how many people don't know their devices have specific forums.
Edit: Here you go. A quick google search found this...

Wow, that was a real nice thread. But I'm wondering about if I install without deleting partitions on SD card, and just run the ROM-file that I downloaded from HTC.
Can I do this? I'm really not sure how to exceed this prodedure, since I want radio and HSPL being all original.
Thanks for the thread though, mate. Hope you can help me out perhaps here!
Greetings to whoever is reading this!
I recently got a HTC HD2 phone with JellyBean 4.2 or 4.3 installed, I'm not sure. But I've been having memory problems with the phone. Whenever I install too many apps, the internal memory of the phone goes low and I can't install anything. I used Link2SD to transfer the apps to the SD card (and yes, I partioned it correctly I think) but I still get the memory low warning.
My question is: Is it possible to downgrade from JellyBean to Android 2.3 version?
I think I screwed up a little, because while having the JellyBean still installed, I installed something else over it trying to downgrade. But that's not causing any problems so far.
I'm quite a noob when it comes to android so please bear with me. Is it possible to delete everything that is installed on this phone, and start installing Android 2.3 from the beginning? If yes, then can you please tell me step-by-step how it is done, or if there is any guide that I missed, can you point me to it?
Thank you very much!

@classic20 - You should be able to retrograde to Gingerbread in the same manner you would upgrade the phone. Also, navigate to the HTC HD2 portion of XDA, you may have better luck if you do some digging there.

Thank you Sergeri. I am new to this forum so I didn't know the best place to post the question. Would you please refer me with a link to the HD2 sub-forum?

Haha, I know how to search with the keyboard. When I said I am a noob, I meant on this forum and about Android in general, not the computers
Anyway, I wiped my phone with the help of a friend and installed Gingerbread 2.3 or something like that.
But, I would really like to thank you for taking the time to reply.

Good morning everybody!
I'm sorry if i'm posting a similar thread but i didn't find the answers i needed. I explain:
i have an Asus TF700T in 4.2.1 with a bootloader - 10.6.1.14.10 (update that i shouldn't make unfortunately ) and i noticed that it´s laggy. I bought it for gaming because of its graphic card but all games i installed are also laggy.
I tried to deactivate some apps i didn't want and there was no difference.
I read in some posts that "CROMI" is what i must install. My problem is the bootloader.
What to do?
Thanks in advance.
Read this guide very carefully. It explains step-by-step how to flash a custom Rom.

Read at least the first 3 posts. I have a section there where I summarized the most popular roms for this tablet.

Thank you very much for the answer! I'm going to begin and try. Will make a feedback soon.
Edit: I downloaded the Towelroot just to have it with me and the antivirus showed it as a trojan. How come?
Thanks very much for the answer!
I followed all steps to install the Rom Cromi and it worked like a charm. Unfortunately, it didn't help me that much but it's still better than before.
Thanks a lot!

Yeah, my AV also treats it as such. A so called false positive...
Its been awhile since I had my Pixel rooted so I just rooted again,but had a couple of questions to verify before I move forward with what i want to do. Right now I got 8.1 rooted on my phone,on Slot A. I was wanting to flash a custom ROM and seen that if you are currently on Slot A, when you flash the new rom, it will flash to the B slot, is this true? Also, if I do this, could I keep my current 8.1 rooted on my Slot A, and use the Custom on the Slot B,kind of like dual booting? I do know with the custom I got to get the Gapps on the opposite slot(right?), so how would that work? I know I can google some of this but havent found a clear answer and want to make sure before I proceed. The Custom I want to use is either Havoc (which I have tried and it failed) or Lineage OS. Thanks
No one,really? Almost 30 people have looked at this and nothing? Not trying to be pushy but just looking for some advice. Not going to Google it and follow anyone so that's why I'm asking here,for expert advice.Ill figure it out on my own I guess.

OK. These forums are not to spoonfeed you. All of the questions you asked in the paragraph above have been answered across the Pixel forums multiple times. Perhaps a bit of googling would do some good.
We should pin how to install on the top of the roms page

I did Google all this stuff,and not finding clear answers to anything just like I wrote,that's why I created this post. Just asking, since this site used to be cool and helpful. Mods go ahead and delete since this ain't going nowhere.
