Hi XDA team. I have a HTC Desire HD that i wanted to have a custom ROM installed. My device seemed to be rooted already since when i go on Bootloader it has ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL on the top of the screen. Any step by step procedure you can give me to install a custom ROM would be of great help. I am new in this thing and i bought this phone already rooted. Pls help.
Thanks a lot. Also can you give me suggestions of good, stable custom ROMs for my device?

Here is a thread about the same topic: HTC Desire HD > Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > How to install custom ROM on my HTC desire HD.
Might be useful to read through it.
If you have further questions, please ask in the Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Have read the link given above
Hi,
I read that forum thread already before posting this thread. I really have no idea if i need to do that since my phone is already S-off. So i just want to know how to flash a custom ROM and the steps to do it. Also if you can recommend a Custom ROM that is really stable and has no bugs and does not eat much RAM. Also can have Google Apps on Playstore downloadable and used. Pls advice me on the steps. I do not want ending up bricking or on a bootloop with my phone. I'm new in this Custom ROM thing so i really have no idea.
Thanks.

You are lucky the "best ROM" threads are allowed now.
Here is one for your device: HTC Desire HD > Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > The best rom for htc desire HD.
And here you can find some available ROMs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-desire-hd#romList ... at least the ones which have a DevDB ROM thread.
But better to ask in your device help and troubleshooting forum, which I have linked in my previous post.
EDIT:
Here is a nice guide for your device: HTC Desire HD > Desire HD General > [How to] Root and flash Custom Roms.
And you can ask in this thread if you have any questions or issues.
Thread closed and thank you!

Thankyou..
If its for the Desire HD i recommend Jellytime by Randomblane. Super smooth and stable. And fast as hell too.

First Welcome,
And I understand your question, but there really is no best ROM for your device or any other device it all comes down to the user. I suggest you do some homework, in reading thru you device forums and then read again. Not saying your not capable of understanding just reading and doing the homework before hand, will help you from bricking your device.
It is all up to you on what you chose for your device. My thought is read this guide before you start on your Flash, Thank You and thread closed.

============
HTC Desire S info:
Android Version
2.3.5
HTC Sense Version
3.0
Model number
HTC Desire S S510e
Thanks a lot!
Looks like you need to read more and post less. All the info is out there, and Google is a good guide.
One general guideline, though: until you understand what things are and what they're good for, don't touch your phone.
READ all the guides/tutorials and you'll have your answers

If you don`t want to be a noob read more and ask less.
Go to Index thread. Close this. Thanks.
no permissions
I wanted to post a bug in the development section in the MIUIzero Rom thread. I guess i don't have enough posts or something like that. Could anybody give me the permissions or do I have to create 10 more or less useless posts elsewhere?
Well, you could try finding 10 useful things to say... Please... Or don't post in the dev section at all; that limit is there for a reason, not just to force you to make 10 useless posts...
Hi! I'm a newbie to the forums and I have recently rooted my phone with gingerbreak and i've unlocked the bootloader.
I have rom manager and clockworkmod all set for the new rom installation, and i just backed up my old rom.
Now, can anyone tell me what's the BEST ROM for atrix 4g MB860 out there?
Thanks.

You'll need to checkout the Atrix 4G Android Development section for finding all ROMs available for the device. Read through user reviews and select the best one of your choice. Also, when asking about which is the Best ROM, you'll get 10 different opinions from different people. So its all upto your needs to use the one of your choice.
Thread closed
I would move it for you, but there's a good chance it would get closed in that forum too. Best ROM threads/questions are generally frowned upon around here due to the type of responses (mostly negative) and bickering they tend to generate. Try them out for yourself and see what works for you.
[Q]Step-by-step guide to root & install custom rom on HTC One X for an absolute NOOB
I'm a total NOOB, just learning the meaning of words rooting, unlocking the bootloader, custom roms etc. I just purchased a HTC One X (used off Craigslist) and want to install some beautiful (and fast) custom roms. This phone's not been rooted and all I know is that the firmware on this phone is 3.18 and I don't know where to start. I've searched around the forums but haven't found anything. Could you please guide me to a step-by-step rooting, unlocking bootloader, installing CWM and custom roms installation (dunno if I got the order right) page/pages which will help me in my endeavor. Any help is highly appreciated.
You didn't look very hard. All you need is sticky to the top of this forum (4th post from the top): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
There isn't a step-by-step guide that encompasses all that you ask for. Reason being, that some things are constantly changing. So new posts are put up for new processes. Another thing, this is a learning opportunity that you should take advantage of, not rely on guides to spoon-feed and hold your hand through process. So just start reading and learning.
Also, questions belong in Q&A, not general.

redpoint73, you are a savior! This is what I was looking (sorry if I didn't try hard enough) but I really really appreciate your help. So the order is Root, Unlock Bootloader, Install recovery and Install custom ROM correct ?
1) Temp root
2) SuperCID
3) s-off (optional)
4) Unlock bootloader
5) Install custom recovery

Hi !
I am completely new to this so here it goes
I have been trying for some time now to root my HTC Desire but all the guides I find will either not work for me or have insufficient/expired links with stuff that they suggest to download and use.
I was looking into this one also with no luck http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902816
At the moment my phone is running the 2.3.3 android version and I believe I have to downgrade first to the factory version in order to root the phone? Or is that not needed?
Also the reason I am trying to do this is because I am not satisfied with the RAM available on the phone and I was thinking of installing the CM10_VJ_4.1.2_V3.1_with_GApps ROM instead. Has anyone to suggest a better ROM for the phone?
I would be grateful if you could help me through this.
Thanks in advance.
:fingers-crossed:
Hi you should try out this guide from the Desire Development forum: [TUT]Complete upgrading guide(root, unroot, flashing ROM & updates) which should take you through all the steps to root. I don't own a Desire so can't recommend any ROMs but in general everyone has a different answer to "which is the best ROM" so if you have a look through this list (up to date as of May) then try some ROMs out which you like the look of then hopefully you'll find a keeper: HTC Desire (Bravo) Index - Everything Desire is here! [2nd/May/2014 good luck
thx a lot I will have a look at this and hopefully not get back here asking for more!
