QUOTE(benny888)
Just go over to forum-xda. HTC Desire section http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=628 - rom discussion here. Roms are free - but you are encourage to donate if you can, to the rom cook. If you don't want to donate , you can still download and there is no limit how many times you can download. If you want special preconfigure roms up to your own choices - try Modaco at http://android.modaco.com/category/430/htc...ire-modaco-com/ . you need to pay a small contribution once only - with this you can use his online kitchen to bake any rom for any phone that he'd developed; again no limitation
If i root my Desire, can i unrooted back to stock rom, where can i get exactly the stock rom as i have right now.
QUOTE(maliqu3)
Download the stock rom for HTC Desire from here to unroot your phone so that you can claim the warranty after that.
Is my warranty will void if i root? do i need to unroot if i need to send the HTC Service Center?
QUOTE(maliqu3)
Rooting your Desire won't void your warranty (you must have faith about the warranty though) since it's not NexusOne that will leave a trace (an unclasped lock) even if you have unrooted back.
How do I check my current radio version?

i guess i have to paste the comment again then....


While sja2 bumping my post, i can tht i didnt regret buying a desire. Currently at starbucks typing with it happily and importantly with ease....damn i love typing using this...just wondering how can i turn off the predictive text while messaging? Cuz i usually msg in malay n its way to troublesome....hehe...and pliz ans my question above too....thnx!

Oh no wait ignore the Q above, all i want to know is customizing widgets n apps, and state which need to be rooted or not.

Another q is, would it be good to root now? Cuz.i.heard 2.2 is coming very2 soon....or is it not.troublesome at all? Cuz my idea is to root then customize the homescreen. Should i wait or just do it now? I can still keep all my modified stuffs after updating right?

EDIT : just got back, got a question again, or maybe an opinion, i went there with 100% of charge, then use full 2 hours of wifi, browsing non stop, even downloading apps, and done some sms'ing. all settings are on(wifi, 3G and some other fancy widgets, and now i have around 40%. is it a good sign?

first day of use, can last around couple of hours only just by playing around(well you know a new toy... ), then this morning, 4 hours using wifi, 1 hour of standard use, then phone died. meaning 5 hours. now, 1 hour of standard use, 2 hours of wifi, in 3 hours got 40%. i think its good eh? and i have this feeling with 40% it'll last longer this time.

Yeah..there are PLENTY of retailer selling Ori Desire..Don't think those are Maxis sets..

but dun think those units are europe units right?
i mean can u check the model number or firmware to determine what unit u having?

QUOTE(AskarPerang @ Jul 31 2010, 09:14 AM)
Exclusive sold by maxis only for the first few weeks after launching in m'sia.
Should be 1 month period for maxis but retailers start selling ori sets even before that.

Many other retailers selling original set now.
But now why wanna get from maxis unless you want to take their plan and tied down with a contract with them.

err,i think i nvr ask ppl go for maxis set right?
but ya,is ur choice..

Have you guys ever tried playing MKV files with RockPlayer? I tried playing a 720p file, fully unconverted using it and it kinda lags, but just a little bit. Probably not recommended for MKV tongue.gif

It is in afolder " Nandroid". When you open it - you will see your phone ID folder ; open it and you will see the backup files. It is a good habit to rename it to something meaningful example PaulverR5dated 30jul , so that you can easily identify it. Good for those who often change rom and would like to restore back to an earlier version


This is avery good summary of the roms available for Desire:

Need to flash to custom froyo rom and partition your SD card. I'm quite confused about it too. Try looking at guides in XDA

And does anyone know if OTA update for FroYo is going to happen in S.E.A?

Thanks

no harm rooting ur phone, it's easy to do it now btw. u dont need to be afraid that u cant flash the official froyo rom which is coming up soon, coz u still can flash the rooted version of original(official) froyo rom later on that enhances the features of ur phone.

yeah when i read the old threads, u need much more preparation to root a phone, like i used to when modding my PSP. now everything is so easy with unrevoked! biggrin.gif hope the rooted version of froyo is stable and the best!

it is already stated in the first page

warranty will be void once rooted,
however you can unroot it back when you send your phone for warranty.

oh yes but whats the point being on rooted if ur not using custom rom? official froyo sense will be pumped when it is tweaked after its released. Plus, froyo a2sd is not that much helpfull, ive personally tried it but i still cant get enough space n i will run out of space after about 20apps or such. Everyone has their own opinion on this btw, so no harm at all bout being on custom rom or not smile.gif

If ur rooted and on custom rom, ur not left out by the official froyo sense for desire taste btw. Just wait until its released and in a matter of days, a custom rom will be released so u dont have to risk urself updating the Hboot or such at all smile.gif and u will still be rooted.

Usually the person not saying why bother to flash if froyo is officially coming is the ones not rooted yet, ur rooted and its better that u just do the next step after all.. there is still no update released yet btw... so just hold on tight or just flash to the already released custom froyo sense rom and reflash again once the official is released

Usually the person not saying why bother to flash if froyo is officially coming is the ones not rooted yet, ur rooted and its better that u just do the next step after all.. there is still no update released yet btw... so just hold on tight or just flash to the already released custom froyo sense rom and reflash again once the official is released
*
actually, heard the news froyo will be update today..but if still no updates.. will flash custom rom tomorrow dude..
thx for very helpfull replied bro..

and wondering, how to reflash once the official is released? is it just OTA update or others way?

learn to use ROM manager.. its very useful and easy to flash custom roms once u learned how to use it. Take note that if u flashed via OTA u might risk of getting ur Hboot updated to a higher version that 0.80 which there is no root available yet. U will have to downgrade ur hboot version via the new usb drive fix method to make urself back to rootable. I would say that u should wait for just a few days for a custom rom based on the official OTA rom. It would be much faster, more stable i must say and loaded with custom tweaks such as battery indicator and such bonus experience. Custom ROMs also comes with A2SD+ which forces apps to be installed on the SD rather than "moving" it which does not move the total or or some apps r not allowed yet to be moved. Hold on to urself cuz it might not be long. It is supposed to be today or tomorrow as we're 8hours approximately faster than UK and some european countries but dont have ur hopes too high. HTC Evo got their update already so perhaps it wont be long for AP sets desire. For Asian set (maxis set included), perhaps u guys have to wait a lil bit more unless they plan to roll out the update immediately and crash the server LOL

You're the man. you've convinced me to flash the custom ROMs when froyo is officially out here. currently rooted only for the paid apps but thats all! biggrin.gif

I guess i'll ask here la, created a thread but no reply...

QUOTE
I heard you cant backup the red coloured words while backing up. i mean you dont have to cuz its a system file. so wanna make sure, do i choose backup apps + system + settings or do i backup apps and settings only?

just want to make sure i dont screw up while flashing a new rom after this.

if TB backup all the apps and systems, what nandroid back up do? i backed them up soon after i rooted my phone already but wondering what is it for...biggrin.gif
and while i'm at it, the nandroid backup is saved as what in my mSD?
Thanks!

What do u mean by when froyo is officially out? r u mad at me and regret flashing since froyo is almost out? Its not just about paid apps (good btw, its good to support the devs smile.gif ), there is more to it such as a2sd n such.

u dont need to reboot it. just change the keyboard to default in 'input method' if u are using eclair. fyi, in froyo it works well, no such problem.

when you are typing a message, tap n hold message box till a window pops up then tap input method and select swype (u have to tick the swype first in settings>Language and Keyboard)

Actually you can get from outside the retail sellers many selling AP set and Ori set.
Then take the digi plan since you prefer digi.

Those that have updated to Froyo OTA, does it wipe the data in your ROM?

His phone is already ROOT that's why when he installed the new update, he can't finish it but pop out with error.
He need to unroot the phone (if not mistaken) so that can continue the update.

And yeah, he will lose the root after official update laugh.gif

400MB of ram? yeah.. since eclair isnt it? the rest of RAM is reserved for system task, gpu n such if im not wrong.. i read bout it somewhere since a part of the 576MB of the desire is not actually went lost, it is reserved automatically by the system. Not sure bout the galaxy S as i heard that they r saying that that device still cant allocate the full amount of RAM due to OS but maybe its automatically reserved just like on the desire. Some already tweaked and managed to gain a lil part up to 3xMB of RAM via kernel tweaks if im not wrong

what i mean was shouldn't it list out the total RAM of htc desire since the kernel for froyo can support more RAM?
but it is fair enough if it reserved to the system and never show out..

and ya,the RAM at eclair kernel can't support so much RAM

Froyo updated, quick and easy. First update failed as I didn't have more than 25MB of space on my phone. Else installation took about 5 minutes.

1) Interface looks to be roughly the same.
2) Faster response on home screen.
3) A few new apps, including 720p video, wifi hotspots for tethering, some new widgets, flashlight, a cuter call screen, updated messages, so typing is easier etc.
4) The update kept all the settings on the phone and apps on the phone as they are. Broken link for voice search, not end of the world.
5) 270 deg rotation.
6) App on SDCard. Needs to be supported by app though.

Previously you can only rotate your screen to one side, you can now do it both sides.


Added on August 1, 2010, 9:49 pmsamurai1337

Yeap, just a few apps which support it so migration wasn't that difficult.

By the way, launching apps is quicker (to the point you can tell the difference).

sorry sorry, didnt know thats the info needed. Ram got 33%, 133mb or something around like that. thats cuz i restarted the phone. if not, 5% of RAM left can achieve also. sense ui is faster last time i use it, with Launcher Pro got lagged a bit even with no widgets. and no i dont use any task managers. and i only have mobile network turned on.

Noticed LeeDroid released 1.6a, if I update from 1.6 to 1.6a, do I need to backup data? Flashing rom will cause loss of data or not?

Its stated there no wipe needed for leedroid users "No Wipe for LeeDrOiD users.... Everyone needs an EXT3 Partion at the end of their SD Card
If you are coming from anything other than a LeeDrOiD Mod a Full wipe is recommended" tongue.gif

sorry sorry, didnt know thats the info needed. Ram got 33%, 133mb or something around like that. thats cuz i restarted the phone. if not, 5% of RAM left can achieve also. sense ui is faster last time i use it, with Launcher Pro got lagged a bit even with no widgets. and no i dont use any task managers. and i only have mobile network turned on.

*
anyone? and any clue on how to close the sense UI? cuz i like Launcher Pro much better so i guess closing Sense would save more better and better performance?

"The Android 2.2 (FroYo) update for HTC Desire will start rolling out across Europe this weekend. As well as including the complete set of Android 2.2 features, the update will contain a few special additions of our own through the latest iteration of HTC Sense. The update will provide 720p video capture, HTC's App Share widget, as well as our enhanced HTC Caller ID, and improved multi-language keyboard. Also, through the update, HTC Sync will allow HTC Desire users to sync their music with iTunes.

HTC Desire users will be notified that the over-the-air update is available to download when their phone automatically checks for software updates. The update won't delete any of the phone's content. However, due to the size of the update, we would advise using a WiFi connection to download it wherever possible to avoid additional data charges.

This update will initially roll out to unlocked HTC Desire handsets. Operator specific versions of the update are undergoing testing and we expect to make them available in several weeks' time."

Got a guide from Chinese forum. It looks like we need to flash it to ver1.2.1 first in order to update Froyo ROM.
But my question is will we lost the warranty from Maxis or SiS?

It's probably the same as what the guy posted earlier:

I think I give it up for now - can live with 2.1 although the chinese BBS posted by chding may work (just not willing to change the identity of the phone as I'm not a risk taker)

At the same time sent SiS an email on any idea of timing for us to get the official froyo OTA

This is a base system framework update, which gives enhanced sound processing capabilities to 2.2-based phones. A simple application called DSPManager is provided to adjust the new audio parameters.

user posted image

Dynamic Range Compression
The power of signal is estimated by calculating the mean of the sample data. The mean is converted to decibels, and adjusted to the DRC curve. The current curve is simply linear, mapping the original -96 dB–0 dB range to some smaller region such as -48 dB—0 dB (factor 2.0:1). Once a correction is established, it is applied along the track's volume control.
Equalizer
Biquad-based audio filter. 3 peaking band equalizers are spaced 4 kHz apart starting from 250 Hz, and a final shelve adjusts the treble band. Bass is emulated as global gain, and compensated by the other sliders.
Headphone Virtual Room Effect
A delayed, phase modified and lowpass-filtered version of the opposite channel is added to the current channel. The processing pipeline is pure delay, 3 all-pass filters of varying delays, and the final lowpass filter. The theory is that the audio from the other ear takes longer to reach the other ear, and is partially obscured by the head resulting in the lowpass filtering. The allpass filters decorrelate the phase of the other audio stream, which makes the filter seem more natural for some psychoacoustic reason.

Need to clear something in my mind for flashing steps;

1)Root my device(DONE!)
2)Backup Nandroid
3)Run Titanium Backup
4)Flash my chosen custom ROM
5)Restore files using Titanium Backup again.

a) thats it right? btw whats with the Radio? do i need it? i see some got with radio and some dont. what is it for and why?

b) and about Titanium backup, i just backup all the stuffs, and restore them all just like kan?

c) and all my settings/preferences/options for my apps will not be lose right(for example fonts, colours, etc)?

d) and one more thing, all of my purchased apps from Paid market still be useable kan? or need to download again?

Yup, I did not root my but you need to create goldcard to get firmware 1.21 (for euro) installed 1st and then upgrade to 2.2 via OTA. Follow my link, since it has an apps to ease on goldcard creation process. smile.gif

A question. If I use other ROM instead of the OTA (Yeah, I want to remain the HBOOT instead of new 0.92), do I still need a goldcard ?

As SEA haven't release 2.2 yet. You need to roll back to 2.1 should you need to claim warranty.

let me tell u something, my Desire is maxis set and if u want to feel original of froyo in rooted version, flash the rom from the link i gave. since it's original (not much changes), u dont need partition (u can only use native a2sd anyway). the rom is rooted and installed busybox only, so we can say it's original froyo in rooted version.

if u havent rooted, then u need a gold card to root it [maxis set only, coz maxis set is locked phone] if u root it using old method. however if u root it using unrevoked, u dont need a gold card.

For those rooted and installed the EU Froyo, just want to check is Chinese supported? Can view site in Chinese? Message in Chinese?

Long time WinMo user, and only using Desire for 3 days only. May root it today if EU Froyo support Chinese. :-)

haha, yeah you're right. so if u guys dont want to wait any longer, then root ur phone and feel the latest original froyo in rooted version. if u want to try official froyo with old a2sd/a2sd+ feature, u can try different rom. but my suggestion flash the rom from the link i gave. the other roms are developed by new devs (and too much changes) so it's kinda not promising i think since i want to feel the closest to original one.

in froyo now i can play asphalt without lagging and it's even fast&smooth now. let's hope all the apps can support native a2sd, coz it's still few of them that can support it. but still, a2sd+ will always be better than native a2sd since a2sd+ can save more internal memory.

One question about the native App2SD though. When you install application, will it prompt you to install to SD (like what WinMo does) or it automatically goes into the SD card? Nice to know at least its faster and smoother smile.gif

One question about the native App2SD though. When you install application, will it prompt you to install to SD (like what WinMo does) or it automatically goes into the SD card? Nice to know at least its faster and smoother smile.gif

mostly all the apps will be installed into ur phone automatically and u have to move the apps to sd manually. however, some apps that have supported native a2sd might install into sd card, such as Skies of Glory.

there seems to be confusion regarding chinese words in HTC desire EU froyo.

Keyboard - Chinese input - Yes

maybe ur card is corrupted or did u plug in ur phone while trying to do nandroid? actually, u can skip the nandroid backup if u think u dont want to return to ur phone's current state in the future.

Just to share my experience on formating USB / SD Card using your PC. Please use the Panasonic SD Formatter to format your USB Drive or SD Card. If you use your PC to format your SD Card will not run at its optimum speed.

as i said, all the apps will install into internal memory automatically and u have to move it manually from Settings if u want the apps to be installed in sd [no options during installation].

Can't recall the speed difference, last try was using Kingston USB drive, and big difference in write speed. If you did not format it using PC then no issue.

Still using class 2, but looking for 16GB class 6. Maybe will get it during PC Fair.

Aside from warranty, i think the AP sets have far better advantages compared to the SIS sets. Nice one SIS! Another reason for us not buying from you.

you better root ur phone, coz right now i'm using original froyo(rooted version) and my internal is down to 60mb now since not all apps can be moved to sd. mostly apps cant be moved to sd, so it's kinda useless using native a2sd, i installed half of my favorite apps btw. when i have a2sd+ and install all my favorite apps, my memory still around 120mb.

If u want to flash official froyo, u need to flash the latest radio. For ur apps use titanium to restore.

Hi all, earlier I was using Nokia N82 phone (Symbian OS). I used to get a notification on my screen (CALL WAITING) if the person I am calling is currently engage/on call. However, after I switched to HTC Desire, this notification doesn't appear. Is there a special way to enable this? Or can this be triggered by any applications?

Sorry, I am kinda backdated and don't really following up this thread. Apologize, if this had been discussed earlier. Wonder if anyone here faces the similar issue?

NOTE:
- The other person has already enabled the call-waiting feature.
- It’s sensibly not an operator issue, as it has been functioning on the other phone (Nokia) * Same SIM.
- SETTINGS--->CALL----->ADDITIONAL SETTINGS-----> Check the Call Waiting box. (already done it) as the matter of fact, It's been working fine for me (when I am on call).

I had posted this question at android's forum. Unfortunately no one could answer me on this. Hopefully lowyat's sifus could enlighten the way. Thanks icon_question.gif

Question, if we wanted to flash to Unrooted Official Froyo when it arrives, wouldn't it automatically flash to the latest Radio as well? Cause mine automatically change its Radio when i unrooted using the RUU.

ok, I am convince... will root and flash to the Rooted Official HTC Android 2.2 (FroYo) ROM. BTW got one question. To flash radio we only need to use the zip and sdcard method as shown in this page right?

Congratulations! I guess the FroYo temptation was too strong to resist. laugh.gif

Ok, since the Desire users are in ROM flashing mood, I'll just add a friendly reminder here. While there's a very minimal chance of bricking your set when you flash a ROM, flashing a new radio takes the risk to a new level. If there's anything that can brick your set, it's the radio. You can recover from a corrupted ROM, but if you flash a corrupted radio, the only way to fix it is to send your set to HTC.

Do's
- Make sure your battery is full. The last thing you want is the phone shutting down while radio flashing due to low power.
- Check the MD5 hash of the downloaded radio image (or ROM if it includes a radio). Make sure downloaded copy and the one published on the site matches.

Dont's
- Never pull the battery out while the phone is updating the radio. It'll take some time for the updating process to complete. Be patient and wait. Some impatient people thinks that the phone 'hangs' and pulls the battery out to get it to restart. As a result, bricked phone and hello HTC service center.

I've flashed dozens of ROMs on my Hero and N1 but whenever I need to flash a radio, it still sends shivers down my spine. unsure.gif

I suggest you to either, try getting a Ubuntu Live CD, which doesn't require installation or get yourself an XP. I tried Unrevoked with XP without any problem smile.gif And its aint too hard to do it with Linux either. All you need is to start the terminal / download the Unrevoked, one click and you are done smile.gif

Btw, which rooted original FroYo are you guys using?

great to see u joining the "darkside" btw rclxms.gif. You should have a try at Neophyte and Leedroid roms. They both are very active at updating and considered the rom of the people. They follow up with users request and done some customizing a lil bit (except on neophyte which is using the expressobar mod). Both have done well releasing good sense froyo rom since the froyo leak.

Guys, just a question. Once I rooted using Unrevoked, it will keep having the root right ?

Cause I come across the reading the unrevoked only root for some time and enough time for flashing ROMs only unsure.gif

Hi all, earlier I was using Nokia N82 phone (Symbian OS). I used to get a notification on my screen (CALL WAITING) if the person I am calling is currently engage/on call. However, after I switched to HTC Desire, this notification doesn't appear. Is there a special way to enable this? Or can this be triggered by any applications?

Sorry, I am kinda backdated and don't really following up this thread. Apologize, if this had been discussed earlier. Wonder if anyone here faces the similar issue?

NOTE:
- The other person has already enabled the call-waiting feature.

- SETTINGS--->CALL----->ADDITIONAL SETTINGS-----> Check the Call Waiting box. (already done it) as the matter of fact, It's been working fine for me (when I am on call).

Downloading Leedroid 1.7 now... maybe I should give it a try later

With phone rooted and new radio installed, I guess I just need to run titanium backup, nandroid backup and flash the ROM, then restore titanium backup right?

If I don't really need A2SD+, i don't really have to partition my SD card right?

Hold on a lil bit more i guess dude b4 flashing to Leedroid, there is not much thing included yet. Its a fresh build by Leedroid based on the new official froyo rom. It will get better day by day i must say. Just keep checking at both of the devs (leedroid and neophyte). No harm trying leedroid now but i guess its not much different "yet" compared to the ones ur using. Have a look at the old froyo sense rom by these two developers and you will see the progress from them and the changelogs which is quite impressive i must say showing and proving their commitment at ROM developing. So many improvements and fixed time by time. That is just what we need from a ROM, support and fixes.

Try a2sd+, it is a great feature which perhaps all rooted user will use, definitely! Native a2sd wont do much compared to a2sd+ as even on froyo a2sd, you will run out of space too. Ive tried froyo a2sd previously but i still dying on internal space later after installing games and apps. I cant confirm that you dont have to, need someone else to confirm this one or u can try also asking on that thread since its still early in the morning here so not much users will be reading ur response now. Some rom with a2sd might just work without the ext3 partition but do have a check on that to avoid boot loops which i saw happened to a few users skipping partitioning their SD. Maybe its due to rom specific either it works with unpartitioned or not.

One problem with LeeDroid that i have on my short time with it was its really battery hungry and i have no idea why. And there are several people in XDA that reported the same problem. Even worse than OpenDesire to be honest. smile.gif But functionality, by far better than the OpenDesire one last time.

It depends on what connection you use for the internet. When there is a H there, it means you are using the HSDPA connection. If you are connected to a WiFi, the data connection logo will be gone and indicates it is using WiFi connection instead.

When you root and install a custom ROM, usually they will notify you which version of ROM would be the best, if an update is required. smile.gif

In regards to memory card, MicroSD and MicroSDHC are basically the SAME thing. The HC, indicates HIGH CAPACITY, which is a denotation for any MicroSD cards, that is > 8gb in capacity. Thus, any cards below 8gb will be called MicroSD, while any cards equal or more than 8gb will be called MicroSDHC. smile.gif

Install ROM, then Install Radio but it doesnt matter the sequence i believe. The end effect is the same.

The ROM wont tell you whether you need to update the radio. The developer of the ROM will usually state in their thread in XDA, for example, OpenDesire request all user to update their radio if you use their ROM.

It doesn't matter if you don't update except there could be a few features that will be problematic.

as for the nandroid, no clue as i'm a newbie too so better wait for the experts. but based on the link you gave me. using the clockworkmod only is basically the same, except you need ROM Manager la. so i think thats the backup you need.

i'm confused already...cuz ROM Manager got the option to backup too~~ and the person in the first post from your given link said he got clockworkmod after using ROM manager...

n btw, kingmax brand is ok or not?

Ok this is the step I used.
HBoot ----> Recovery ---> Nandroid ---> Backup ---> Reboot.

And I got the file.

Hi Bro, I have checked on the link and downloaded all the required files. I have some queries.

1. How do I create partition Ext 3?

2. I checked LeeDroid thread and found that Leedroid 1.7 requires a new radio. I have downloaded that too. What is the step I should take? Install Radio first as per the blog guide and then install the ROM?

1) Download a program from the market called ROM Manager. In order to use this, you must root your phone first. Then, using ROM Manager, there is an option to create a partition. Enter Ext3 - 512MB and Swap - 0MB.

2) You can do it either way. I personally flash the ROM first before installing the new Radio. And follow this guide :

http://smarty-money.blogspot.com/2010/07/g...ustom-roms.html

Flashing of Radio is exactly the same process as flashing a ROM.

Hi! I'm new to Android phone. I have used WM phone before, and currently switched to Nokia E72.

Welcome to the club rclxms.gif

To display task list on homescreen, several apps there in market, you may try astrid task.

Im not sure what SPB financial management software provides but you may search similar apps from Market as well. Good luck biggrin.gif

Yeah, I am wondering how to remove it as well

I guess formatting the SD card won't help?

EDIT: Formatting from the phone works - of course, backup whatever data you have first

I used ROM manager to install Lee Droid ROM 1.7 (with wipe data and backup options)

After the first boot, I had to go to Market to download Tatanium backup to do the restore, but it reboots every time I attempt to install any application. Been reading around - apparently not many people encounter this. Maybe I should try the "Fix permission" stuffs in ROM Manager first?

(No such file or directory)
Installation Aborted

I'm sure my SD card has data inside and inserted properly - but for some reasons the ClockwordMod can't find them

How about choosing the file manually ?

Doesn't work, apparently it's either ROM Manager or ClockworkMod messed up

I am doing restoration in Titanium backup now to get the basic system working - gonna fix the recovery thing later

Most places out of stock. Even during the PC Fair at Penang. No stock. Got to wait a week for stock to arrive.
Huge demand I guess.

Nope, ur card aint corrupted. After restart, u format sd card again until u can mount it back. Trust me it works and that's the only way.

this only turn off the data. BTW widget is available for this. Add Widget -> Settings -> Mobile Network.


Added on August 4, 2010, 1:30 amRooted my Desire and on Official EU Froyo.. love it.

Question:
1. If I use ROM Manager to create partition, will it erase the data. Plan to use app2sd+
2. How to backup call history and SMS?
3. What is the name of the application which allow me select US T-Mobile add market? Found it: http://code.google.com/p/market-enabler/downloads/list


Added on August 4, 2010, 1:39 amAnyone managed to get swype worked on Official EU Froyo? Can't changed the input method but the Swype Tutorial worked.

1. i think once you do partition, your card will be format. Not sure, cause my card is formated before i do my partition.

2. I used mybackup pro, nice application.

My swype is working. i m using roufianosv3...

This rom seems to work in my phone with little flaw, but a lot of ppl complaint cannot get the apn work~~
developer already warn on stop updating the rom...

Are you flashing new rom? Why you are using update.zip? I though dont need to change the file name to update.zip?
Not sure about it, i have problem with rom manager before.
I found that i need to flash the clockwordmod everytime when i need to go into recovery or flash a rom.
Try reflash it before you start....give it a shot...good luck

How many keyboard you have? If you have only one then it wont pop up input method..
check in the keyboard setting whether you install and enable other input or not..

I was trying to flash a new ROM, but it seems that Clockworkmod doens't recognize there's any zip - it only found there are couple of backup folders in clockwordmod directory that don't already exist. I believe clockworkmod is corrupted or only recognize the old settings now

I tried to reflash CWM using ROM Manager but same problem still persists. Any idea? It really drives me nuts because I can't do any recovery / re-flashing new ROM now rclxub.gif

Can't root again as unrevoked now recognizes my device as "Passion" (which is NexusOne)

Only good thing is at least I have a working system (which I manually restored using Titanium from a base official rooted Froyo) - but it's dangerous cos I can't reflash any other ROM now

Do you flash the wrong radio / ROM or something as it's kinda impossible to have unrevoked recognize as N1

I guess that unrevoked method only worked when your handset is unrooted
Once you rooted and reflashed to custom ROM it will recognize it as N1 (I guess).

Are you using ROM manager? Do you have the option to flash alternate recovery? Mine is greyed out in the menu

And actually I'm following this guide

Wait, you are saying you are trying to root your handset that is already rooted? I thought you only need to do it once and after that, all you need to do is flash the ROM.
