Use the stock rom, until this is no longer a question to you.

Can you tell me the URL?

Stock rom is whichever rom came with your phone. What I meant was that you should not rush to flash any rom before you realize what you need, what you're looking for, and what the roms offer.

Excellent advice I think. I'd really like to move to froyo (for better camera apps and call recording), but I'm holding it off until I really know what I'm talking about. I see too many people here who flashed a ROM and are now stuck with something (or so it seems) they didn't want.

Before you change your rom, you should create a nandroid backup of your device.
I could not say, if it´s generally possible to change the rom which is branded by your provider.
With my provider and my phone, it was possible (meanwhile on 3.4.2 155-002). So I have no experience with swiss devices, I can´t tell you, that it will work with your phone.

[Q]Stock Roms vs Custom ones

Hello folx..
Im using Desire HD for a while and wanted to ask you:
What is the diffrence between stock rom and custom roms ? What do i get if i put custom rom on my desire hd ? I have to root it i know that. But is it worth to put custom rom?
Thanks alot in advance for responses..
as i can see in your signature, why have you modde your HD2? the same reason to not be controlled by anyone to what you do with something that you own, to be free of bloatware that the companys want sell you. that is why i keep mine as plain as possible.

Yes, i modded my HD2, because it has Wm stock on it, and i wanted android.. But i still cant see right bemefits of custom android roms for DHD.. Maybe im not reading much...
Briefly - Most custom ROMs are better optimized for speed, smoothness, battery life, user customization, extra settings etc. Not only that but most bugs are fixed before HTC would ever get round to it.
Do it, you wont look back
But , if i root my phone, i loose warranty ? Is there any chance i could "unroot" my phone ( revert to process of rooting, so i can keep my warranty for any case..) ?
If it's anything like the Hero (which I'm sure it is), then flashing an official HTC RUU ROM will remove root.
Best to check in the DHD development section though, there's a FAQ there
EDIT: As always, it's best to do as much of your own research and reading as you can before trying anything new, but here's a link to a thread about removing root etc: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9985360#post9985360

Guide to GB ROMS?

Hello all,
I like many others, I have installed the new GB ROM from the RUU supplied by HTC and it is "OK". However, i would like something else.
I have seen many guide to install ROMS and it seems more or less clear.
My problem, and maybe the problem for other noobs if the fact that there are so many ROMs out there. It is difficult to know which one to take.
For example, I am looking for plain old stock android 2.3 for the desire. No sense, no extra HTC apps. Just what google would have on the nexus 1. But, I cant figure out which ROM fits that.
Any ideas?
What would be great is sticky which lists the ROMs and their main features for all us noobs. Unless there is one already and I didnt see it
Get Oxygen Rom mate its nice and basic , if u want to go too basic get DevNull
But for starters i think u shud go with oxygen
Pm me if u want to discuss any other details

Well, if you installed official Gingerbread 3.14.405.1 RUU, you can't get root (yet). No root means that you can't install custom rom.

watch the video tutorial too - but it sounds like you want an AOSP rom
Yup, you definitely wanna try Oxygen + it was recently updated to Android 2.3.5.
It's sense free, all bloatware removed, very fast & minimalistic.
http://forum.oxygen.im/viewtopic.php?id=149 (it wasn't updated on XDA yet, but you can download it from there)
CyanogenMod7 will also fit you.
Should have read into what you were doing before you updated. You can't root now, which means no custom ROMs for you. HTC updated HBOOT so no more rooting for the time being. You're stuck with it till someone cracks it. Unlucky dude.
My recommendation:
Sense (2.1+3.0) : InsertCoin 1.0.9
AOSP: Oxygen
no MIUI from me...sorry..
Thanks for all the replies. I am pretty sure it is only a matter of days or weeks at most until I can root. I recall the same situation last update.
It sounds like oxygen is the way to go. Once the root is available I will give it a shot. Thanks.

[Q] wheres the official ics build?

I've been unable to locate the OFFICIAL version of ics for the a100. I cant receive the ota because I have the leaked rom already. Well I've got flex so that should sum it up. Reverting back to HC was a failure and only led me to bricking my device. Long story short I'm using teamwin's recovery and I am fully rooted. Just looking for the official ota and not the leaked ics...
Is there such thing?
I have been reading dozens of posts here, and accoding to it I think there is no oficial ICS because what they're pushing is and update/upgrade, not a full ROM.
So, if you want to do it manually, try a newer leaked one, or a stock one. I don´t know which one will work for you since I´m in the process to try one after another myself. At the moment, I gave up of trying GEN2 and switched to GEN1.

um...that isn't exactly factual AT ALL...
The STOCK ROM posted in the devs section is the OTA that was delivered to some tablets earlier last week. Both build numbers and image numbers have matched up. Now i'm not sure what would make this a "complete" rom to you...but a couple of things are missing from the ACER ICS that some were looking for:
ie...facelock...acer ring (which isn't even ics related per se)...
The rom that everyone is using is THE STOCK rom....not a LEAKED INCOMPLETE rom...
Well I wanted the updated rom.. was hoping someone mined it from their device with everything already on it. I'll continue to wait I suppose. Flex rom is beautiful and would probably switch back right after anyways...since I got you guys here..know of any other custom roms?

.... Read Cheeb's response again. The version posted in the developer's section (and if you search for longer than a few minutes in the dev section, you can find multiple locations to download it from) IS the updated version, that came from people's tablets.
If you wanted an actual image to flash using fastboot, etc... I guess you could build yourself one. *shrug*

If I´m wrong, why every ROM I downloaded and/or captured from my OTA´s is different? Aren´t they giving us differential upgrades?
The only ROM we can so call official would be a full ROM.

Any Stock/Unadulterated Gingerbread ROM?

I have unlocked my boot loader and rooted my WFS. I have backed up the ROM that came with the phone and would now like to flash a custom one. I've taken a look around but can't find a bog-standard, Gingerbread ROM (ie. without any HTC Sense) which is what I'd like to try first.
Does anyone know if one exists and, if so, can they point me to it please?
Kind regards
CM7 is the best(and perhaps only) choice you have

[Q] Stock Galaxy T310 Wi-Fi only ROM?

Hello All,
I'm no Dev, I'm not claiming to be. I simply used ArchiKitchen to make a stock based ROM because the other ones supplied might have caused issues for me. Not dogging those other Devs but no matter which one I chose there were underlying issues that were persistent.
I'm asking if anyone would like me to upload and make available a Stock 4.4.2 UK based TW ROM with nothing altered in the build.prop. Rooted, De-Odexed, busybox, and zip-aligned. I can offer a full and a debloated version if this is of any interest to anyone.
IF I do upload this ROM, I do not offer any assistance and do not guarantee this ROM will work for you. I will not make any other varients, just the T310 WiFi version. Again I stipulate I am in no way a Dev, I simply did this because I wanted something as near stock as possible without any mods to the system or build.prop to try and eliminate whatever issues are being caused on my own Galaxy Tab 3.
I have been running a ROM I built in the ArchiKitchen for 24 hours without issue so far so I thought I would offer something basic for the community.
So.........?

A,
if your rom is square make it available. as long as you're not duplicating something that's already been done
someone may have a use/need for/of it.
Maybe in the process of maintaining it you will develop into a developer and come up with
new/useful/cool things.
