Hi Guys,
I searched the threads for T Mobile G2 updates but i couldnt find the right information.
I have the T-Mobile G2 and i wish to install custom ROMS for HTC Hero, or the STOCK ROMS. but i cant. How can I install? Can anyone help me or send me links to HOW TO's...?
Do I first need to Root the G2?
Is it even possible to install Hero ROMS on the G2?
Thanks in Advance!
gr Haru
If u wanna Install custom ROM then go for MoDaco http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=552591 Read it and fallow the instruction. I have got T-mobile G2 with MoDaco ROM and its much better than factory one. I don't think there is any different betwen Hero and G2. Hardware should be the same which is the most important.
If you want to go official then you need to wait for t-mobile version ROM. Just check sometimes www.htc.com --> support.

Hi
In case it's still actual there is a thread about the same problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2460195&page=4
Hello there, how are you?
My problem is, I received an Y300 as a gift, haven't yet received it but I want to prepare the necessary things to root it and install custom roms on it. No, this isn't the first phone I install a custom rom to, as I have already played with an Optimus L5 of a friend. Could you please answer this questions?
a) How do I root the phone and install CWM or other recovery? I have found many tutorials but they are confusing, and require waiting for 2-3 days for the code to unlock the bootloader. In case you need to know, it probably is the normal Y300, the international one, so no Asian Model
b) How many ROMS are there for this phone? I like Cyanogenmod and stock roms the most, I can barely stand the stock rom in the phone, so I would like to install a new ROM on it ASAP.
c) By flashing the new ROM, do I lose IMEI or something like that (EFS Folder in Samsung phones)? If so, how can I back it up?
Thanks for your help

Here is a GUIDE to unlock the bootloader and root your phone
Thanks, LS.xD
This was all I needed, I've found a CM11 Rom in the Modaco forums, hope it works well. Just got to wait until I get the phone
Okay, so I downloaded the latest nighly of the ROM, but it appears that CM11 is not very stable and has many problems with SystemUI (statusbar) and other things. Aren't there any ROMS for the Y300 on XDA? Also, will I lose my network connectivity if I do the wipes (data,cache, dalvik cache)?
Again, thanks for all your help, I appreciate it
EDIT: Found CM10.1 here in XDA but it redirected me to Modaco, however it is quite stable, downloading now. So which wipes do I have to do, in order to get everything smooth? Also, as I said will I lose my network connectivity or IMEI if I do these wipes, or I can do this without worrying

If you already have CWM installed, then you're all set to install the custom ROM. Just make sure to run the Nandroid backup from CWM before the upgrade (better safe than sorry).

It means you have replaced the recovery to one that allows you to upgrade your ROM among other things (CWM that is).
Regarding custom ROMs - that's the big question: There are nearly no custom ROMs for this device, or rather to the L7 II series. If you browse the Android development section, you'll find some custom ROMs, but they are all based on the current 4.1.2 one. There's also an MIUI ROM for your device, about which you can read at the end of this thread. According to other threads here, LG has announced it would upgrade the L7 II series to KitKat somewhere round August (which should be any time now), so I guess the best thing to do would be to wait for it (as I do).

Hi everyone, I have a problem with my Lg L9 II, it's the the stock rom but updated on 4.4.2 (KitKat).I have some bugs on my phone and it's a bit slower.I want to the install my original rom 4.1.2, I dowloaded him from your forum but when I transfer on SD Card and open CWM with the button volume up and power key I get the block ( I take picture and she is in attachment). I don't have a root. Can anyone explain me how to fix that, that I can install my original rom with CWM or TWRP. I hope so that You can help me, and sorry if the that thread is duplicate, I'm new here and don't know how it's work. Thanx in advice.
Kind Regards
did you had CWM installed!?
if you want "original" ROM (from LG), install the 4.4.2_V20g version via KDZ install (20g is the best version in my experience).
if you want cwm or twrp to experiment custom roms.... a good start: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2730501

You need to flash the respective V10x kdz(according to your region). V20 is KitKat. V10 is JellyBean.
I recently purchased a Sky Device 5.0W (chinese phone). I already rooted it. It has android 4.4.2 running. Im new to this. I would like to know if i can install a custom rom to this phone and how to go about doing this. Ive searched on the internetm but no luck. Is there a generic rom like Cyna CM or anything i can do to this? thank you

No. There are no ROMs for this device. No one has built a custom ROM for it because it is not a popular brand. Now you can install a custom CWM recovery. Use MTK Droid Tools to do create one, then flash it with SPF Tool. Once, you've got CWM on there, you can root it by installing a SuperSu zip from the SD card while in recovery.
But unfortunately, there are no custom ROMs available that you can install.
I dont know if you still have the device, but I am currently working on a nougat resurrection remix rom for this device. So far I managed to get twrp 3.2.1 running on this phone with storage and adb working, ill update you when im finished making the rom boot.

Why not post the TWRP image for the device if you have created one? People who have the device would find it helpful.
