Hi, i know this is a noobie question, i tried google-ing but i find the answers insufficient. Aside from bootlogo and apps, What is the difference of Vodafone branded and the Local ones?
I got this HTC sensation VF from my friend and I want to flash custom ROMs/firmwares. The phone is already openline but is still on stock rom and unrooted. I am just wondering if I will get problems if I unlock it and then flash firmwares. if so, is it already the same as the local ones?
I came from Samsung phones and I am just new in HTC phones and i know it's more complicated to work around.
i just found answers to my questions, thread closed.

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

Hello guys. I recently purchased Tmobile HTC Sensation. I have few question, any help would be greatly appreciated.
1- How to unlock my phone for other carriers? Apart from the usual online services. If anyone would recommend me or tell me if i can do it on my own
2-Once its unlocked, what precautions i need to take while playing with roms, mods, updates so that i dont lock it again.
Thanks a lot guys
Well to answer your questions
1. Use the search button
You have 81 posts and 18 thanks, you should know how to do this kind of stuff.
Unlocking your phone to use with other carriers has nothing to do with rooting, which is where you can install roms and mods. Your asking two different questions in one....

I already used search button and i do know it has nothing to do with rooting. What i was asking is, we all know sensation can be unlocked for different carriers, and different online vendors are charging for it. My point is, can i do it on my own?
Now that the bootloader is unlocked, flashing radio image or RUU from unbranded sensation should solve the problem. I dont know which part holds the locked carrier mode.
Thanks
Dear All,
Greetings
I believe this phone is not that populare where I can't find custom roms or RUU for it.
I am looking for original or custom rom that support reading/writing arabic letters.
I carry the European version of this phone and it is already unlocked and rooted.
Appreciate your help
My GF also has a Rhyme, i have to carrier unlock it somehow, but i guess its not possible yet i Bought unlock code for it from 3 sites, all were the same, and it didnt work. Probably the original carrier relocked it (tmobile croatia).

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.

Okay cheers guys.
Hey guys,
Been reading around on here and seen that pretty much everyone has the 2.3.5 with sense 3 update.
My girlfriend recently got a Desire S on T-Mobile UK and she is still on 2.3.3 sense 2.1 with no sign of any sort of update, I have read a few threads round here to try to find an RUU or w/e but I can only find ones that are for other countries or operators.
Can someone point me to an RUU or guide me through obtaining the update?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Ian
Is it s-off or unlocked through HTC Dev. Here are the collection of stock Roms http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002506
If the stock ones don't work then look at S-offing your device.
We haven't done anything to it really since she got it, id rather keep it that way to be honest.
Current software version is "1.47.110.3 CL78999 release-keys" is this tmob specific software? Are we more likely to get the sense 3 update if I flashed a WWE RUU?
Thanks
Hi, I'm sorry but I don't know. T-mobile are a joke as far as updates are concerned. I take it you have tried to update through your phone ie, check for updates in settings.
The first thing I do when I get a new HTC is change the T-mobile softare for one of the custom Roms, they are far better and don't have the T-mobile crap on them.
Take a look through the t-mobile forum and you will see there are plenty of pissed off people waiting http://support.t-mobile.co.uk/discussions/index?page=forums&topic=80101915a8144e01337e648aca007a7d
Good luck
Okay, thankyou for taking the time to reply, I will maybe wait a while then look into the HTC DEV unlock method and just flash an untouched 2.3.5 on there
I would give it some consideration, the custom Roms are far more stable in my opinion and give you a lot more options.
Sorry I couldn't help more.
