I'v jst got the 2.1 update for my hero on orange, uk. I want to be able to install to my sd card, but I have no idea whatsoever on how to go about it. any help would really be appreciated
Follow the guide "complete newbie guide to install a custom rom" thread in the android development section. You will need to put on a custom rom that supports apps2sd, which most of them do. Im not sure if your hero needs a goldcard tho, but if you dont, follow the first 3 steps and the apps2sd section. Took me less than 30 mins and i dont know anything about android
You're not able to use Apps2SD on the official releases. It has to be enabled on the ROM itself AFAIK. You'll need to root and install a custom rom.

This is the stock ROM, with A2SD added.

I am on rooted Android 1.5 (Kirma 1.8) which work perfectly, flawless, and fast.
I m wondering how can I upgrade to any custom 2.1 ROM?
1) shall I simply load custom ROM file on my SD and use recovery mode to install the ROM?
OR
2) I need to first upgrade to Official HTC 2.1 ROM, then root 2.1 rom and then install a custom ROM?
Also which of 2.1 custom ROMs do you reckon? Do I need to upgrade recovery rom before upgrading to 2.1? I m looking for rooted- fast-overclocked one like Kirma 2.1
1 was correct. Ie. Just flash. Update amonra if you like. I'd advise it.
If you want 2.1, there's plenty of sense ROMs to choose from.
If you look to 2.2, there are vanilla froyo ROMs available.
Try them out and see what you like...
Thanks pulser i ll give it a go
Ta
i haven't got the machine yet, i dont find the tutorials available are noob-friendly and something about upgrading & downgrading are not clearly mentioned, maybe it's just because i am a little bit retarded.
if im not mistaken to install custom froyo rom from the stock 2.1:
stock 2.1->root->recovery->install rom, right?
So how do i get back to stock 2.1?
Is it useful to backup stock 2.1 using the recovery?
When i want to get back to 2.1 from froyo can i just restore my backup through recovery or i need any flashtool?
PLease help me
I dont know why you moving to 2.1 ROM when you can get amazing future on custom rom.
But you if decided then search for stock ROM 2.1 in forum it will be in .zip format (I got once but forgot link) OR go to SE web site choose your device & follow instation process with the help of SE PC suite.
Hope this is useful.
Hello everyone, My friend recently gave me his G Tablet to "update" it. I've read most of the guides and have a good idea on what needs to be done. I am currently on stock rom 1.1. I was just wondering before i backup my rom with NVFlash and install CWM, do i need to Root my device first ? I went through that gtablet for dummies site and it does not mention anything about rooting the tablet. I intend to install vegan tab 7.1.0. Does the rom come pre-rooted or will i need root the device first before running nvflash and installing cwm ?
Also im looking for a stable rom. Is vegan-tab stable enough or should i be looking at another rom? remember i am on bootloader 1.1
No need to root before installing a new Rom. The new rom will give you root access. Vegan seems to be a favorite for stability. Not sure if the most recent update has a version for the 1.1 bootloader though. This site will walk you through everything you need to know http://viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com/

The boot loader issue had been debated at some length in the past.
Some dev (roebeet) pushed for development into 1.2 - some stayed with 1.1
Either way, there are some roms for both.
You should learn NV flash and try out a few and see what works for you.
HC flashback 10.3 is slick and nice.
Beasty/clem ultimate is very fast and stable.
On a side note, ICS is in development pending kernel work. It will be on a 1.2 BL base...fwiw
I am currently running an international one x+ factory unlocked, with superCID and s-OFF(lucky me ). Naturally, I cannot revive any software updates. I have an nandroid backup of the 4.2.2 stock sense 5 rom, and I have already flashed the firmware for sense 5. However when it comes to the rom installation I am not sure, as I have stock recovery. Is it possible to install with stock recovery? I know the stock rom requires full stock to work. Can someone please provide a guide, or an instruction set?

Another solution. If anyone can link an OTA that I can flash to the RUU, that would work too
