I'm thinking about trying out one of the custom ROM's but I don't want to do it until I can get a stock installation back in the event I need to RMA my phone.
Thanks!
Jason
Yes. Check the Wiki.

Ok, so I finally received my new Titan from USCC (Us Cellular). I figured it would be a while before getting it, but surprisingly, It was here 2 days after they advised me it would be sent.
Question is this: How can I make a functional ROM dump (copy) of it's ROMS?
I know that once flashed to a GPS ROM, it is very risky to flash back to a non-GPS ROM; however, I've read several threads on PPCGEEKS on how to successfully accomplish this. My new phone isn't even activated yet, so, If anyone can guide me through a method of successfully making a functional copy of this stock ROM, and RADIO, It might be very helpful to UL this to a wizard like DCD so that he can work his magic and provide yet another useful upload for all of those wishing to re-flash to stock!
I'm DEFINITELY going to flash DCD's latest ROM to my new phone, but I was hoping that someone could help me copy/create a functional ROM dump prior to me altering it!
Any advise?
BTW, thanks, DCD, for working on this USCC related stuff.
Dear all,
I would like to flash my TP to a new ROM (for the first time). I did a lot of research already but I still have 1 question.
If I flash my TP to a new ROM can I hard reset my device again to the default stock ROM?
The reason I want to know this is because I have a Dutch stock ROM. I assume most of the coocked ROMs are in English. I have no idea if it is possible to switch back to the Dutch stock ROM. And most importantly how it is done.
Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,

The HR will not send you back to your default stock rom, it will only give you the current ROM plain as it was when you first flashed it. To get back to stock rom simply flash your stock rom. If you dont have it, go check the wiki for it, it should be there.
There are several posts on how to switch back to a stock ROM. There is even a database of stock ROMs in the wiki. Please use the Search function next time.
Also, there is a guide on how to stock to custom ROMs and stock ROMs. All of the necessary items are stickied.
Hi All,
Is there a way to back up the ROM/firmware on the phone before upgrading?
Thanks.
but why?
you do know that your rom is not uniqe it's 100% the same thing as any other rom with the same brand and same version nr
if you don't like the rom you try out you can just flash it with the same brand / version rom you got and you're back to square one
otherwise check out the wiki for more backup info
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Himalaya
The reason why I want to back up my original ROM/XDA installation is because after reading a lot of information regarding ROMs, they all seem to be customised and bloated with stuff I don't want/need.
Ideally, I just want to be able to upgrade the OS, and not have to worry about any tweaks or other programs someone has put into their ROM.
Thanks for the link, I've had a look. I was hoping that someone would already have a ROM but as you have said, a lot of customisation by the operators.
all roms here and in the wiki I linked to are not cooked the official ones like the one you already use are available too
since 2006 I´m using Custom ROMs from this Site
meanwhile i´m not flasing only my own Mobiles ,
I was never dissapointed!
....and I think you will not Missing ANYTHING from your Original ROM
well,except you have the Time to Drink a Cup of Coffee ....while waiting
for Response of the Original Branded ROM
The only thing worthy for backup..are your own Files !!
I have a HTC HD2 from T-Mobile USA. Now, I dont want that T-mobile customization including the "Stick Together" start up screen. I think I can do a ROM installation.
Also, I have SPL installed. Is there anyway to install a HTC Original ROM without installing HSPL ?
I need a latest HTC Original ROM to flash my device. Also, I need HTC Sense in it.
Can anybody give me the link to download the latest version of this?
Also, how can I take a backup of full phone to restore, if it didnt work?
Can anybody help me?
it's good that you couldn't find an original rom, because IT WILL DESTROY YOUR PHONE.
your phone cannot take ANY official roms except the tmo us official roms.
the radio in all other officiall roms is not compatible with the tmous, and your phone will never work again.
you can change the stick together screen without changing rom, but you do need hspl3 to do it.

Search for Stock ROMs in the forum and you will find HTC ROMs. You can also get it on HTC website.
You won't be able to change ROM without installing HSPL.
The stock ROM comes with HTC sense.
You can use various backup options including PIMbackup (for msgs and calls and stuff), SPBbackup for full backup including registry settings and stuff.

BUT as sam said above, a STOCK HTC ROM will kill the TMOUS HD2 due to the radio , it will brick it most likely.
So You do not Want a STOCK HTC ROM on a TMOUS HD2 ...
i repeat ......

Thank you guys. Now I have installed HSPL3. I hope I am now safe to install any custom ROM.
I am looking for a custom ROM.
Also, whether the Android 2.2 ROM available for HTC HD2(T-Moible USA)?

no, not 'any' custom rom, only roms that say 'tmous compatible'
Do you know you are in the 'regular hd2' section?
You should go to THIS forum instead.
Thank you.
Hi all,
First of all, apologies for a very newbie question.
I have a stock N1 with terrible battery life. I have stumbled intersectRaven's mod/Kernel at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653598
I would like to ask how I can install this on my N1, is it just a matter of downloading the right file, renaming it to update.zip and then doing what I've done to update my phone as with official updates?
What do I need to pay attention to and is there a way to revert back to the original rom/Kernel if I'm having issues with this mod or if I want to sell my phone?
Thank you in advance!
You should have the clockworkmod on it. its the easiest way to install kernels. just have the kernel on your phone and click the "install rom from phone" button in the app and it should do the rest for you. I recommend backing up your phone. i never wipe when installing kernels always when doing roms though. Also a good idea is to look for the stock rom for your phone before doing anything to it so you can return it to factory. Goodluck!
Thanks merrick,
I will do some more research regarding the clockworkmod and see if that does the trick!
