Hi,
I have the HTC TyTN II smart phone with the orange rom on it, im trying to find out how to get rid of this and put the orig rom instead so I can use the phone with another network. The phone is already unlocked but theres so many roms out there I have no idea which one I should be using. Can anyone please advise me on which one i should be downloading.
Many Thanks
If the phone is unlocked then it doesn't matter what ROM you use, just pick a one off the first page and flash it.
None of the ROMs are network specific, ATT based ROMs work better on the Tilt handsets and HTC based ROMs work better on TyTN 2 handsets. Most ROMs are HTC based nowadays.
If you need any help with the flashing process or have any more questions, please post them in this thread.
Thanks
Dave
Hi guys.
I've just received my new HTC HD2 im with T-Mobile UK with unlimited mobile internet. I had a play with this superb phone for few hours and I've noticed that the included within HTC package browser is older ver of opera that not supporting playing flash and videos like new skyfire any one knows how to update it and make it play videos etc? also how to check if I got the newest rom? I dont want to flash unofficial rom yet but if there is some way to improve the official one plz tell me.
thank you
I have a HD2 from T-Mobile UK, for some reason I couldn't flash an offical ROM to the phone so I just used a goldcard (found from search) and the new ROM works fine. No problems at all.

The default version of Opera on this version of the device is 9.7 which doesnt directly support the latest version of flash (they are ways to enable to to view older flash content however). For full flash support, Skyfire is probably your best bet,
As for roms, chances are that you have ROM version 1.43. to checko this, go to the settings tab on the Sense home screen -> About phone -> Software information. Check the ROM develoment section for other official ROMs.
The HD2 I got from T-Mobile lasted all of 2-3 hours before I put a custom ROM on. The fixOperaFlash tool should work with Opera 9.7. I've not tried it on my HD2 yet but it worked well on my Touch Pro.
how did you manage to keep all t-mobile settings right (mms internet etc ) after flashing custom rom? Which rom did you go for?
I recently flashed my tmob uk hd2 - so far i have found the miri ROM works best for me. As for internet settings and such the phone practically does it on its own
One thing i will say, I could not access internet using the Eugina rom (might have been specific to my phone)
i,ve got in t-mobile htc hd 2
its better to download sky fire that is perfect for flash player.. but only works well with wifi....
Ive also got the Tmobile HD2. Came with version 1.48.405.1 (71294) WWE ROM
Works fine.
Rom?
I went about upgrading my rom yesterday and visited htc site for the latest htc hd2 rom update. When i went to download their rom update release I had to type in my s/n . It said that this rom update is not suitable for my hand-set. I have the 1.43.110.2 (70315) WWE version ROM. Does this mean It is the same version? I have had my hd2 for over 2 months.
The ROM on the T-mobile UK phones seems to be T-mobile specific, especially if you put your serial number. I flashed my phone within 4 days of getting my phone. Currently using Artemis ROM. Be brave - take the plunge.READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST! THEN FOLLOW THEM ONE BY ONE! Good luck, Brave Lion!
Yep. I got mines on T mobile since day 1. Originally flashed it using the goldcard method but have now HSPL'd it and am currently using "topix" ROM ver. 1.1.7
I'me very happy with this ROM and I've tried a few others but I keep coming back to "topix"
If anyone has good experience with any other ROM I'd be interested to hear

I completely agree with you the ROM on the HTC website is for unbranded HTC HD2 phones. There are plenty of custom ROMS and tweaks out there to suit your needs. My favourites are Tom's and Dutty's.
I have just bought a HTC Desire HD and im very pleased with it. Its a fantastic peice of kit but orange have decided that they want to fill up my phone with a load of sh*t apps! Very annoying. I have decided therefore to ROOT it with visionary last night which was success then i downloaded the ROM manager after turning of S-OFF i think...correct me if im wrong there. So i have a rooted phone now but all i want to do is bang a generic stock ROM on there so i can use my phone how it is just without orange nonsense everywhere and still get the updates off the cloud as come to general public. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
William
You can't run a custom ROM and still get OTA updates. As you are rooted you might be able to remove the Orange bloatware but it'll probably return with every update.
Have a look at the Desire HD forum to see what custom ROMS are available, or check the list in ROM Manager. There's bound to be one that suits your needs.
I'm planning to buy a HTC sensation in NY, but for use in Brazil, I've always used unbranded HTC phones (touch, diamond2, Desire HD) because I hate those logos and apps, and also the updates OTA are released faster as they come directly from HTC.
If I can't find the phone in NY (the WW version, wich I want), is it possible to convert it's software into stock/unbranded version? How?
* If anyone has tips about where to find the WW version in Miami/NYC... I'd appreciate.
Thank you all...
I fear you'll have to wait for S-off to flash an unbranded or a custom ROM.
But for the moment, with temp root, you still can use Viperbloat or Titanium backup to kill all the operator apps.....
Hi all, I am a complete Android noob and am looks for some answers.
I currently own a HTC Sensation Z710e that came with my contract on Vodafone and I am intrested in performing the whole S-Off and root thing, my question is though since I seen on the HTC Dev site that there is an EU version and a Vodafone version of the Sensation, I wanted to know if rooting on my phone would work and would I be able to install standard Senstation custom ROM's, would they install just fine or would there be issues with things such as calling or texting people? Would I need to change the radio settings around or something, if so how?
I just used the htc dev site just to see about how it works and I am probably going to use revolutionary.
I am running Android 2.3.4
You can tell I am not yet fully experienced when it comes to Android, so could I have some general tips and guidelines when it comes to modding my Sensation please.
Thanks for the help!
Yes when you root it and S off you can use any compatable rom - also unlcok the Sensation for free as well.
My phone came from Orange - S off CoreDroid for me and unlocked its
Marvellous sorry Sensational, now on Virgin
If you can read and follow instructions it's easy.
