Non-XDA PPC special roms anyone? - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

Sorry about this being a non-XDA post but... I'm currently working on building a special rom for the Toshiba e335 and was wondering if anyone else is working on roms for their non-XDA PDA's (specifically for the Toshiba e330/e335.) I seem to have a usable rom but I just can't figure out how to flash the new rom. Anyway, here's what I've done:
1. I essentially followed the "Back Up Your Current Rom" section here and got the rom for my e335.
2. I took a look at the rom and extracted all the file using this little prog dumprom. This wasn't necessary but I thought it was cool none the less.
3. I downloaded and installed the mkrom.zip file from the xda-developers site and used the splitrom script to cleave off the bootloader.
4. I took the original image and followed the site from '1.' to cleave off the bootloader and extra space by following the section labled "Prune and Restore your ROM". It looks like the bootloader goes from 0000 0000 to 0003 FFFF and the empty space goes from 01C0 0000 to the end of the file.
Note: The pruned file sizes in step 3 and 4 varied by about 100Bytes if the extra space was left in step 4.
5. I tried to take the newly made images (in NB0 format) and flash my e335 using the e740 way (ie from SD card, while holding the Task and Home buttons while doing a reset) but the PPC just looked for something (it was too quick to read) for a second and then hard reset.
It seems that all the tools are there to make this work but I guess I don't know what to do with the image once I get it. If I knew the proper way of flashing the e335 then I could conclude that my rom image was improperly made. I figure that flashing the e335 with a standard image is better than trying to build my own and then flashing that.
Anyway, if anyone has any ideas let me know.

reflashing original rom

ok right now i'm running the love rom on my g4 wizard. how do i reflash my original cingular rom? i know, it sounds like a nub question but here is the problem. it will flash then hang at 80% and the progress bar will turn red. it will then pick up again and continue to 95% then turn red, fail and say error 326 invalid command. i downloaded the updater directly from htc.
any ideas guys?
Yeah it doesnt work....Your now stuck with the Wizard Love Rom or you can upgrade to another rom but you cant go back to the original Cingular Rom.

That ROM is for a G3 Wizard, Check your PM's
ok i reflashed with your method and i'm back to my cingular rom. thanks a lot!
(big reason to go back was it was the only rom that my school's wifi app would work with, plus the love rom in combo with orwells wm6 wasn't cool. that splash was ugly IMO)

All you have to do is download and install the Ext Rom cabs manually. This may still be available on the ftp. If not PM me.
It worked for me
Thanks a lot ercave1, the ROM flashed flawlessly, however the EXT ROM didn´t came up by itself. The features I´m missing are as follows:
1.- USB switch to select activesync mode to serial or RNDIS is missing, regardless this USB sync to PC (Activesync 4.5) is alive and working well.
2.- ClearVue pdf is missing, not a big loss and I really don´t care since there´s another alternatives to read and diisplay pdf documents.
3.- GetGood and in general all connection settings! I don´t give a s**t!!
4.- MIDlet Manager, big loss... I´m going to keep trying to download Risidoro_Intent_MIDlet_ Manager_V11 whenever the ftp be up and running again. So no worries.
5.- Voice Speed Dialing Settings icon in both the Program ans Setting screens are missing, however the software is running when I press the known VSD button.
6.- Cingular carrierlogo! I don´t care I have my own logo.
And I guess that´s it !
Regardless the comments above, I´d like to learn how to "extract" the correspondent EXT ROM cab files, if you guys have and advice on it would be great.
Thanks again ercave1 for the big help

Yes, this is because the Ext Rom was wiped out by the G3 Rom having been flashed on your G4 devices. I don't remember reading about a fix for this, but you may want to search through the forum. The only solution I'm aware of is to install the Ext Rom manually.
I'm glad you guys got the device running again.

Reflashing ExtROM CID Locked
Who knows Russian go to http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=32996 & read my post
And the one who does not know it?
thanks to: Murchelago
literal from the Russian to English
it is the first step. if someone can polish it (I do not speak English good).....
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Already many know that mun built Shell Of tool, which was capable of pouring axis into Wizard G4 with [lochennym] [Sidom], but to the enormous regret it does not know how to pour with [ekstrom].
Recently it decided to be played a little with the program of nb2nbf and to verify, is it possible by nevertheless any means to renew also Extended Of rom to CID-Locked apparatuses. And which there was my happiness, when I revealed after [pereproshivki] that he renewed.
It decided by the same method to try to flood Splash Of screen and HTC Of logo - everything proved to be very simply.
In view of the small quantity of information on the forum on [devaysu] Of wizard G4, it decided to build brief instruction on its [pereproshivke].
1. We stitch through apparatus by pure piercing - Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii+CF2.
http://rapidshare.com/files/8651097/Wizard...E_Novii_CF2.rar
2. By the program of typho5 we unpack nbf the file of piercing, which we desire to pour into the beast.
First we fill up into the folder with the program of nbf, and then start with the parameter of typho5.exe - x nk.nbf. After procedure we obtain several files, in number of which is contained OS itself, Extended Of rom, and also as a rule Splash Of screen and HTC Of logo.
([ZY]. For convenience in the use of program made [batnik]. Simply you will place nbf into the folder and will neglect typho.bat)
3. Now we gather our nbf file, each at will can include any desired components in it, naturally, except axis itself.
4. We go in very [progu] of nb2nbf and we make the following tuning:
- We establish Model ID: WIZARD
Language: it is empty
OEM: it is empty
Operator of version: it is empty
CID: it is empty ([ochen]_[vazhno]); remove the numbers, which are contained inside the field
- We establish [galochku] opposite “File of # 1”, we click on the button of survey (button with three points), we find the file Of extended Of rom' and (in the folder of typho5, the exemplary name of 9b000000-Extension.nb)
- In the field “Of start Of address” we enter 9b00000
- In the field “Of image Of name” we enter Extension Of rom (not Extended Of rom, you be attentive!!!)
- In the point “Of file of # 2” we find Splash Of screen, in the field of address we enter 92000000, in the field “of image of name” we write Splash Of screen.
- In the point “Of file of # 3” we find HTC Of logo, in the field of address we write 9d000000, in the field “of image of name” we write WITH HTC Of logo.
- We press button “Translate”
- Extended ROM is ready, it is possible to stitch through.
Unnecessary for you files it is possible simply not to include, but to insert, for example, only one by [ekstrom].
5. We place the obtained file of nbf into the folder [proshivalshchikom] and start. Procedure as with the usual piercing, lasts in all the pair of minutes.
6. We pour the axis Of shell Of tool' ohm from mun' of a.
Finale - valuable piercing

I enumerated the options since each have its own reason
1- Use Winrar to open RUU.exe and use typhoonnbfdecode.pl to extract the 10MB file (0xA00000 bytes) of the extended rom from nk.nbf
2- oops, same as 1 (and its nk.nbf- not nk.nba). hehe, my mistake
3- use pdocread.exe to read BDTL1 - or TRUEFFS_DOC1 (use my Wizard Service Tool as it can be done with a few clicks )
4- Unhide extended_rom and use Active Sync to copy the files to PC (or, once again use my tool to do the same )
cheers
Sounds great to me!

Flashing from SD: A Success Tale

I've just finished successfully flashing an unofficial WM6.1 ROM to my StarTrek (Cingular 3125) using only a microSD card (no data cable, no ActiveSync, no Windows) and the brilliant work found on this forum. I thought I would share the details of my success in the hopes that it will help the next person who stops by, since I myself found it difficult to find a definitive yes/no on the matter here.
Requirements:
HTC StarTrek
I had the Cingular ROM; Any should work.​
microSD card
IMPORTANT: Your card MUST be using FAT32 for this to work. If it is not already so, back up its data and do this now. (Windows will show a FAT16 volume simply as "FAT".)​
AppUnlock tool
The one linked at this post is good. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1146363​
The ROM you wish to flash
I used the WM6.1 Standard ROM posted here by Erofich, since it is most appropriate for a Smartphone such as the StarTrek. You can also use the Professional version, though it is intended for use with a touch screen, so you will have to control a cursor with physical keys.​
A computer you can use to extract and place these files onto the microSD card.
After you've obtained the listed files and have them extracted somewhere on your computer, copy the following files to your microSD:
SurrealNetworksAppUnlock.cab (Anywhere)
The entire SSPL directory from your extracted ROM download. (Anywhere)
RUU_signed.nbh, found within the RUU directory of your ROM download. (Rename this to STARIMG.NBH and place it in the top-most level of your microSD card, not inside a folder.)
Insert the microSD into the device (the door is located beneath the SIM card). Using the File Explorer (or Total Commander, if you have it), move or copy the three contents of the SSPL directory from your Storage Card to the top level (/) of your phone.
Find the SurrealNetworksAppUnlock.cab file on the Storage Card and run it. It should install like any other application, and you will notice a change to your Home Screen wallpaper.
Using File Explorer again, navigate to the top level (/) of your phone and run SPL.lnk (36 bytes, if this helps you distinguish which file to select). If all goes as expected, you will see a white screen, followed by a message telling you to press the top Volume button to proceed. Do this, and it will flash your new OS to the phone.
I hope I've offered a clear and helpful explanation of this process. Enjoy your now-renascent StarTrek!
Special thanks to Corian for helping me troubleshoot, to #xda-devs, and to all content authors involved here.
Funny, I was planning on re-flashing my 3125 via SD card, but I could not find where I left the instructions. I did it many times a few months ago while trying many ROMs, but I could not recall the exact procedure. Then I come to XDA-Devs to search for the info again and find your post sitting there right on top. Thanks, you saved me lots of time.
I'm currently using Erofich's (pArtizAn's) 6.1 standard ROM as well, but wanted to try out Erofich's PRO version for kicks, and maybe retry GnatGoSplat's clean ROM (I found I'm not using Mobile Office , which the Clean ROM leaves out.)
Ideally, I wish there was a way to install certain WM-Pro only applications on WM-Standard, so that I don't need to change to a touch screen centric OS just for a few applications.
BTW, anyone find and use the HTC Network Setup tool to configure the phone for use with U.S. AT&T service. I want to avoid having to manually set up the data settings.
Freakin awesome, works like a charm, now I can flash my phone with the broken charging/sync port. Many thanks...
Hello. I done all steps of this instruction, but can't flash because the message which invite you to press volume button does not appear...
You should repeat the instructions very carefully. Are you sure your SD card is FAT32-formatted, rather than just FAT (FAT16)?

I actually have no idea; What I've posted here is all the experience I have in this department.
Hope you get it figured out!
P.S.: Erofich has a new ROM posted in this subforum; You should check it out if you plan on flashing.

basic setup & upgrade advice needed please

Is there anybody that can point me to a simple upgrade overview or simply outline what the options and the benefits are and what is involved please .Blimey guys we all have to start somewhere !....
I have over the past week spent something in the order of 5 hours trawling hundreds of threads and thousands of posts trying to find a basic intro setup and upgrade overview for the 02 Himalayer without success.
I have found hundreds of dead links and even more obscure threads with suggested upgrade files that either don't work properly or are incomplete or brick the XDA
I am new to the 02 XDA ll and cannot find anything comparable with such a large screen. ?
therefore I would like to make some basic improvements if it is possible without risking corrupting the Rom or bricking the XDA as I do not have the technical expertise to sort out the resultant problems.
this is the spec I have
02 XDAll
2Gb SD card
Rom 1.72.00WWE
Date03/15/04
Radio 1.17.04
ext Rom 1.72.18.1
Ram 128Mb
Model PH10B
I would like to be able to have a large analougue or digital clock on the start or active screen like the touch .
I'd like to be able to customise the start screen and remove some rubbish.
is there any chance of installing some large icons ? like the Diamond/Touch et al as it would be useful to be able to operate it without needing glasses all the time.
Photo editing thumbnail gallery software like Picassa or similar ?
I'd be very interested in other owners mods they have carried out to simply improve and update their XDA and make the day to day operation easier or any suggestions at an alternative with a 3.5"screen
Any help or advice would be much appreciated as I don't think I could face another 5 hours searching phew
well does anyone know of any other XDA with 3.5" screen at least? one that has a better spec than a XDA ll ?

thank you Rudegar but that means absolutely nothing to me I'm afraid.I assume that I can access this readme file through file explorer yes ?
What would flashing the Rom achieve for me ? what would I flash it with and why would I do that ?This forum is littered with hundreds of flashing problems
I don't mean to be disrespectful but your answer is not exactly helpful is it?
ok I've found the reason why no one wants to help .Its here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2031989&postcount=45
This forum is full of people with problems that 5 minutes of searching will find a solution for, this is one such but as it is sunny outside, first time for far too long, i will indulge you a wee bit.
If you download a ROM for any PPC what you will get will be a ZIP file. In that ZIP file will be three or more files, one will be the new ROM, one will be the program to flash that ROM to your PPC and the third will be a readme.txt file detailing how you actually achieve that. There may be other files in the ZIP or there may not. The readme.txt can be read by Notepad on your PC.
The basic process to upgrade is this:
1 - Download and unzip the ROM
2 - Place the PPC in bootloader mode, follow the instructions in the readme to do just that
3 - Run the upgrade utility to transfer the new ROM
4 - Have a cuppa while step 3 completes, anythig from 10-30 minutes.
5 - Reset the PPC and enjoy the new ROM
Hi all i'm newbie on ppc,i wanna upgrade my o2 mini II,my device info, rom version 1.03.00 WWE,rom date 11/1/04,radio version 1.01.00,protocol version 1337.38,extrom ver 1.03.166 WWE any suggestion?

Well then the sequence is:
Hard-Reset (L+R Softkey method)
R2SD backup (where can you get THAT? - Even how can you make that, on a GoldCard possibly?)
Official firmware (see above)
Gold Card will not help for loading a cooked ROM as it still needs a signed ROM (despite ignoring the Carrier).

You could as well try the guys at IMEI-check.UK - they are very knowledgeable and may have a system backup of the supported devices in their drawer (just in case..). Maybe they can fully CID Unlock the SPL on that device and allow the flashing of a cooked ROM (is there any)?

I understand, but not have a good solutions. i see all this pages... and nothing
My dad still has his Monet on the stock ROM.
IF you can give me simple instructions to follow to dump the ROM, I can do it when I next see him (within the next few months).
Safest method should be to have a GoldCard created and then do a R2SD backup on that card. The R2SD command should be available from the "GoldCard - SuperCID" SPL.
If that works, nothing on the device itself has to be changed and the complete ROM is dumped on the card. In turn that memory card can then be dumped to a file, zipped and shared.
I said simple I've not ever researched gold card and to be honest don't have the inclination to do so. if you could give me clear step by step instructions with links to needed files, I can help.
Well - I don't need it, its Nokser
So he surely will tell you a step-by-step action what to do, maybe even prepare a package for you. It will require downloading a program that can create the Gold Card (psas.revskills.de), have a suiting SD card, as small as 64MB, but any less than 2 GB will do it, a normal USB cable, a PC, a Terminal Program (mtty) and finally one out of a set of tools that can handle the created image.
If all is prepared well, the total time to execute all actions would be ~half an hour (the dump on the device is just a minute!), but you should calculate a little more for this one time action.
Thanks for offering your help to save one of a species from the dumpster!

Hi
Please, you first dump and write in attach. bootloader section
...just to complement the GoldCard idea:
When writing back the dump to a card for loading the broken device, the bootsector of that card may require to be a "gold card" too. Since the Gold Card key is related to the device and the Serial number of the card, the key contained in the bootsector of the dump will not fit to the serial of the new card Nokser has to use.
So after the dump was written back to the card, the PSAS has to write the goldcard-key to the new card again (which is different as the serial of the card is different).
I wish you luck getting that operation done!
I want Bootloader, because in this file is writing all info from load all parts and method backup. All abouts from boot file is importand.
If we IDA execute this file, then we see -> how to get any section and name sectiors
Bootloader (IPL and SPL) are part of the "R2SD All" backup. You can patch them later. Makes no sense to only do partial R2SD backups.

[Q] keep flashing in HTC green logo

my HTC HD2 keep flashing on HTC green logo here's the thing i did before this happened:
1) after having hanged most of the time because of having full internal memory (holding power button "HARD RESET")
2) holding power button and enter into the 1-10 options i dont know what you guys call them but there is a 1-10 option and what i did was do the factory reset and ask me to wipe all the files and hit ok, and some running deleting and i dont know what to call them then it reboot then suddenly it just keep restarting on HTC green logo.
i actually go to the other shop that they said they can repair this kind of problem and i watch them on their computer they just keep searching and posting on the other site asking for help so i said to the technician, we're wasting both our time waiting for your help in the other sites so ask them can you give me back my phone pls. and here i am found the XDA forum so decided to register and look for your genius help i know you guys are pro when it comes to this kind of problem can someone help me pls this phone is all i got, got no money to buy another phone this is like a treasure to me since i dont have a job,

Thanks in advance guys.

info
additional info
using android 2.3
T-Mobile
i read some forums that should i back up first before doing the factory reset using the 1-10 option i somehow factory reset without having a back up of it i thought its just ordinary factory reset
someone help me pls
i will give you any information that you needed in my HTC as long as you help me how to do it im totally noob.
I think you have a nand rom if so tr doing a clean install.
1. Flash a stock WM6.5 rom
2. Flash magldr (which i think u have) or BlackCLK (I personally prefer this for android on NAND and if not dualbooting)
3. Find a cool rom in the NAND section, Flash it and enjoy.
Let me know if you need more info.
reflash with stock rom t-mbole,
folow of procedure how to flash it,,.

THanks for your very helpful reply sorry for being noob what is stock WM6.5? magldr or BlackCLK? cool rom? I think you have a nand rom if so tr doing a clean install? what is TR? help me pls i need a step by step guide? i really appreciate your reply this means to me thanks.
Before you start READ THIS. The default os the HD2 comes with is known as Windows mobile 6.5. The developers at XDA have managed to make android work on this device using special secondary bootloaders which need to be flashed(installed) on the HD2.
There are two of them, one is MAGLDR made by cotulla which is the one you have i think (the numbers with options when it starts) the other is CLK which is open source. These bootloaders allow you to boot an Android rom (the os).
Before we start download and install Windows mobile device center on your PC. Once done follow the steps.
Step1 - WINDOWS MOBILE
a. First we are going to put the HD2's default os WM6.5 (THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING) Download this
b. Turn off your phone, hold the volume down and power button until it shows a screen with three colors (Bootloader).
c. Connect your phone to the PC (Where it says SERIAL on your phone it should change to USB) and run the file you downloaded in "a" and follow the instructions it says.
d. The phone will reboot after the process and boot the os.
Step 2 - secondary Bootloaders
Just to be sure before you start this go in to the tricolored screen It should say 2.08HSPL somewhere if it doesn't DO NOT continue. If it does continue on.
This where you have 2 options one is MAGLDR and the other is CLK (I prefer BlackCLK since you can easily congfiure it to modify the sizes of system and data without a PC). If you'd like magldr try this video it should help
BlackCLK - Download
a. Format an SD card and copy the LEOIMG.nbh from the zip to SD.
b. Put it in the HD2 and boot into the tri colored screen.
c. It should say something to flash it, follow what it says.
d. Once done reboot. it'll say something cannot be found and go to a menu. if your reach it YAY. Volume keys to move and green key to select
Since you have t-mobile you have enough storage space unlike european hd2
so we'll skip dataonEXT (basically moves data to a secondary partition on your sd) if you want it let me know.
INSTALLING android
a. Find a nice rom (os) in the android nand section since you were on 2.3 you can continue with it or try 4.2 (jellybean) rom Good fast roms are pixelfreaks, nexushd2(from tytung) or most of the older 2.3 roms.
b.1 Once you find one you like download it and copy it (the .zip file) to your sd and put it in your hd2.
b.2. Each rom has size requirements for system and cache (it says it on the thread for the rom).
c. GO to settings ---> resize partition set system and cache according to required by the rom save/apply it. go back format nand. then reboot
c. go to recovery, once loaded click install and choose your rom and follow the instructions it says.
d. reboot and you should be good to go.

Thanks for your reply man i really really appreciate this, im gonna try this one my wife want to try the jellybean since its new :laugh: is jellybean a fast rom? anyway how do i know if the file is in correct hash or not corrupted? i read some forums some files are corrupted? what do you recommend me i would like a fast rom instead? does it need a 100% battery?
(Just to be sure before you start this go in to the tricolored screen It should say 2.08HSPL somewhere if it doesn't DO NOT continue. If it does continue on) *what should i do if not 2.08 HSPL?
what should i do to know the verison of my HSPL?
i think i should follow your instruction its because its easy to follow rather than the one you hyperlink in READ THIS, is it ok?
too many questions sorry i just wanted to be sure, thanks for your wonderful help god bless!

If you do not have HSPL2.08 (most likely you'll have it since you already had MAGLDR) you should Flash HSPL 2.08
Well not quite sure which rom is the best but, i have tried Pixel freaks AOKP and Slim ROM, they both are 4.2.2 and were pretty good but you'll have to find one which suits you.

sorry again i just want to be sure i dont want to mess my cellphone, i think i should follow your instructions its because its easy to follow rather than the one you hyperlink in READ THIS, is it ok?
is there a way to view what my current HSPL? i tried this one holding power button and volume down button this is how it shows
PB81120 HX-B3
SPL-2.08. HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x40
so should i start now the process that you told me?
if i do this does it delete the amagldr?
and also d. Once done reboot. it'll say something cannot be found and go to a menu. if your reach it YAY. Volume keys to move and green key to select? (if i reach it'll say something cannot be found and go to menu? it means i did something bad? or its normal to reach on that scenario?)
The READ THIS part was for Basic Info.
Yeah your HSPL stuff seems fine
And yes it will remove MAGLDR and in the end youll eventually be using clk (latest one which i put the link for is CLK 1.5.x.) I dont think it'll matter that much since you aren't dual booting (WP7 and android) and have android on NAND(The phone itself). If you want to use MAGLDR over CLK follow the video and Not the CLK part
should i start now?
so should i start now the process that you told me?
i read the some info in clk does it auto configure by default?
"Changed some options under SETTINGS.
Added option to use inbuilt off-mode charging under SETTINGS/SET DEFAULT OFF-MODE CHARGING. From that menu you can select it (option USE INBUILT OFF-MODE CHARGING) and try it out.
If using inbuilt off-mode charging the device wakes up if you press POWER [button].
This is an experimental feature! Only tested with original battery and charger.
High Voltage (as measurement) is set to 4.2 V. Use at your own risk! Otherwise stick to the default way of charging (option USE RECOVERY'S OFF-MODE CHARGING).
Usb detection function changed (option under SETTINGS/ENABLE USB DETECTION). "USB" mark at the bottom of the screen if device connected to pc is replaced by turning led on/off if connected/disconnected.
Added some code as an experiment for a potential off-mode alarm application.
More info in this thread.
Warning : I didn't know java or how to use eclipse and make an android app. Seriously, I still don't. But after some days I managed to write this application mostly because I wanted to know if this idea was possible. So consider it as an example. Any criticism accepted. I just hope that someone may find it useful and make the best out of it."
i dont want to take the risk can you help me configure it to "ALL" default? i know you 're the one who can help me.
<in your previous post what do you mean by this?>
and also d. Once done reboot. it'll say something cannot be found and go to a menu. "if your reach it YAY". Volume keys to move and green key to select? (if i reach it'll say something cannot be found and go to menu? it means i did something bad? or its normal to reach on that scenario?)
thanks man each time you reply you educate me.
should i start now?

i just want to ask which folder should i put the LEOIMG.nbh?
what format of sd card? fat32?
what version of clk that i shall download? stable, legacy or experimental?
which one should i download?
Quote:
cLK (source code)
Experimental
Stable
Legacy
Quote:
ppp wrappers (source code)
0.8b4
0.8b5
where do i download the new clk version?
thanks man
The default CLK settings are fine as they are, the only things you will need to change will be the the partition sizes (system and cache depending on the rom).
Put LEOIMG.nbh on the root not in any folders
Sdcard should be formatted FAT32
CLK Experimental (Although its pretty stable). The latest version is the one i have put the BlackCLK download link for.

you mean just copy the LEOIMG.nbh in sd ok, just in the root of the sd what formating tools?
why do i need to change the partition size i read in forum the minimum is 220mb? is ok?
thank you bro
Just regular format the sd through windows fat32.
The Partition size thing is for the PHONE not the SD. Each rom requires different SYSTEM sizes, like for example even though the minimum is 220mb you might want to add more in case you plan on adding stuff to system like GAPPS (Google apps) or any mods.
The reason for this is because even though your phone has 1gb Storage internal you will need to tell it how much each part of it should be used by system, cache (some is used by the recovery) and the remaining will be DATA( where your installed apps go).
When you first put CLK it will have some other system size (150mb i think) set so you'll need to change it.
Sorry forgot this part in the main guide. But if you want to increase you storage you will need to partition your sd card in the recovery before you flash your rom. First partiton -Fat32 and second as partition as EXT4, the size of your EXT4 will be added to your phone and will be counted as internal storage and then while flashing the rom choose with DataonExt. If you dont really care about this just ignore this.
P.S. Ohh in the rom installation IF it asks for PPP or RMNET choose PPP, RMNET is only for MAGLDR.

oh ok thanks for this wonderful info.
you mean it is rooted automatically?
is it ok if im only using 2gb sd?
and what if i want to repartition the sd card anytime?
All hd2 roms are rooted.
2GB for what, DataonExt?(for data one ext to work youll need to have a second ext partition)
well its best to do it before installation and choose that option while installing the rom, if not you can do it after but it sometimes doesnt work with some roms. You can partition the sdcard later ( so with 2 gb youll want to make 1 gb ext and the remaining 1Gb will be your ext or whaterver is left), but then youl have to flash a dataonext zip (the v2).
But its best to do this before hand althought the best option for tmobile hd2's is just nand (without dataonext,, data onext is usually for EU hd2's since they have smaller storages.), also to use dataonext it needs a fast sdcard otherwise it can slightly slow down the rom(cause the apps will be running of the sd).

my phone has only 576mb (t-mobile) do i have to partition my phone also?
sd card 2 gb.
anyway if i use the partition right after i install the rom the 1 gb isa fat32 and the other 1 gb for ext? so my question is the rom will create the ext system file? because windows doesnt have ext.
so do i have to use this partition thing? its kinda complicated like y ou said im using t-mobile can i skip this partition? or it is necessary to install a rom?
additional info for my phone: sim locked, not yet unlock
can you also help me to sim unlock?
thanks man! God bless!
576mb is RAM which both T-mboile and EU hd2's have, the only difference is T-mobile has 1GB ROM/NAND (the storage) while EU has 512mb.
Just wondering you phone does say T-mobile and has a green call key and red end key right???
First off the phone partition thing is different compared to sd. For the phone look at the system size and cache size required for the rom and resize those in CLK.
Second you can skip the SD partitioning its not a highly required especially for t-mobile I just added that as an extra.
Third Try experimenting you'll never get anywhere if you dont try .
And i have no idea about simlock try googling it

my phone it has a green call button to the left and red button to the right but when you turn on the HTC the loading screens are color pink stick together, then it goes to the something says 123456 go go go, then go to HTC queitly brilliant, htc green logo, (in my case it hangs in green logo) lets continue color pink Beats logo, then htc green logo then the regular home screen.
my phone has a t-mobile in front of the face plate near the small speaker when you make a call.
can i skip the dataonext? its kinda complicated
and one more thing after i install the stock rom will the HSPL 2.08 will be deleted?
Thank you very much! God bless!
ps. my internal storage is 500+ only not 1 gb, i dont know if its just locked but im pretty sure my internal memory 569 to be exact i dont know why.
Thanks. God bless!
