can some one guess whenb new rom update for hd2 is due ..........
in all honesty bud i personally dont think there will be one. there are too many new htc phones out for then to consider working on a new rom for a pretty old (in phone terms) model.......why not try a custom rom ?. im more than happy running cht and spb side by side.......
i could be wrong though.........

What is the motive to develop a new ROM for an OLD phone in the context of HTC? Are you not satisfied with the Custom ROMs?
cutom roms are gud but not as stable as official roms ,in long run.
from day 1 and rom 1.43 i guess and rom 1.48 hd2 is buggy ........
till now on 1.66 i have huge list of bugs .....
all of above i have to install a large no. of softwares on my phone ....
so i can afford to have custom roms flash and reflash and so waiting for official update ....
there are couple of test roms around so seems like update rom is about to be released soon ...

I would have to disagree with you, my phone is 500% more stable with a custom ROM , you just have to choose your custom ROM carefully ...
There are a lot of chefs that make custom "stock like" ROMs that no one can say are less or more stable because they are built from the same source(and in most cases newer) that HTC builds theirs from, just with more or less apps.
So to make a broad statement that custom ROMs are less stable or more buggy is really unfair, have you tried EVERY, custom ROM for your phone? Or did you try a couple early on , that had bugs and decide they were all that way ...
My current official rom of 1.72 is perfect.
I dont think there will be another update with the phone beign discontinued now (?)
Unless they release a final update? Doubtful.

i am not saying custom roms r not gud or unstable .............
actually custom roms do have conflicts latter on as os runs
one reason is obious that its a individual effort and offiicial one is special group production ....
if one has no problem with reformating device then he can afford custom rom ,,,
but a person like me which need hunderd of software in device can not spend a whole day for reinstall ....
the buggy roms i have talked above are the official rom not the customs ....

Thanks! Currently I am developing on the Vogue and the Touch Pro. I have no more Titan. I am trying to raise enough money in donations and Google AdSense to buy another one. Once I do I got some things I never finished I would like to finish up.
Thanks again!
I like to install Stock (shipped) ROMs and then make my own customizations. So I have flashed the WWE Asia rom and its working very well.
But now I want to install the new Rhodium TF3D 2. It is recommended for OS builds 21000 or higher. However the latest shipped ROMs are less than 21000.
So my question is, how can I upgrade my OS build to 21000 without installing a cooked ROM? I know the answer is probably "no you can't" so my real question is, "being a person who likes to stay as close to a Stock Rom without going into cooked roms, what the best bet to achieve this?"
Thanks again in advance.

simple answer is no you can't. there are some roms out there that are very similar to the stock roms, but I don't recall them off the top of my head. look in the raphael rom section.
I strongly advise you switch to EnergyROM, its stable, DAMN fast, i was like you a week ago and then went ahead with trying a cooked ROM, believe me, you will NEVER want to go back to any stock ROM after using cooked roms, specially EnergyROM. Never!
Just flash it safely and do not forget to do a HardSPL BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING!
If you do not feel secure about flashing, like i was, then 1st backup your original ROM, and then go ahead with HardSPL and flashing
Best of luck and again, believe me, stock ROM is JUNK!
Cheers
You can extract these two files and place them in your windows folder on your phone. It should allow you to use the new Rhodium apps.
I have seen it work and not work when copying the files so use at your own risk.
On ppcgeeks FayFay made a stock sprint 21028 rom if you have sprint.
Heres the link:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=61966
Thank you for your replies everyone.
I think I will go ahead with Energy 2.0 and try it out. I was almost ready to do it anyways, this gives me the final push! I just hope its as stable as a stock rom.
So.,.. im in doubt again.. Should i use Official rom and modify it with programs and themes as i want, or should i use some cooked rom ( elegancia rom is the most suitable rom for me within the cooked roms..)

Difficult question; all depends on your expectations/needs.
Personally I'm more fore a Cooked Rom reason way; it is mostly build by a personal creator, with his opinion/experience on the way how it will be better, and if you look into each Rom Builders thread you will see a lot of updates, and a lot of people recommendation and gives feedback about there opinion.
Let say that mostly a Cooked Rom is build on customers needs, and not on the thinking way of a factory.
If you ask me, tray it out, you can always changed your Rom version.
One important rule, reed always attentive the instructions, and follow them.
yes ... u are right... i found elegance rom best suiting me .. but 2 things i hate about it :
i cant get original volume control back ( instaled all possible cabs, but no )
lockscreen is damn ugly even when i restor original one, its ugly...

All depends on taste sir; unfortunately this isn't a thing I can help you out.
But if you go take a look on the theme thread's you will certainty find one you like. (There are different versions of it, but it's a little bit searching)
I don't know if you have take already a look to the Artemis Rom?
I don't have the intention to favoring/make publicity fore one Rom builder; but I have had a lot of different Rom version's and I always came back on Artemis. (But again this is personal need/opinion.)
Oh yes; it have the opportunity to switch between two different lock-screen versions (they are build in the Rom) and it have the original volume control.
In case of; you can find the link in my signature.
and whats the speed of device with artemis rom? and are there bugs ? have u tried elegancia rom ?
the only think i dont like with estetics on artemis rom are those bubble buttons for phone and menu... can that be fixed?

Okay, this are multiple questions
- Speed is Okay (quietly fast comparing some other that I have used), and smoothly.
- Bugs; I must be honest thil here I think I'm a lucky guy and didn't have found bugs on it, but I must also be honest in the past there were some version's where the battery drains fast; but on the version I'm now it's okay. (2,5 sometimes 3 days of battery life (I'm always in 3G used synchronization of whether/Mail/Twitter(if it works) every 10 minutes used 4H/day WiFi/(surfing on the net) and do about 3H of communication/day (I Know I'm phone addicted) I don't set my device on sleep; always turns on 24/24 and if I have time about 1h/day I listen the radio on it.
So I must say I'm satisfy on battery life/comparing on the needs I have.
Of course that don't mean there aren't now bugs, Sternas (the creator of Artemis Rom) do mostly each week a Rom update, I don't have always the time to follow it so I can not say if it's always smoothly. But I see if people communicate bugs/problem's he do directly a new update. Much respect fore that fore someone who build multi language Rom!
- No, I didn't tried Elegancia Rom; so I can not compare with this version.
- About the bottom buttons; he have 5 different versions of it already build in his Rom; so you can shoos between them. But it's not something fix from the Rom; in the Theme Thread you will find hundreds different versions. fore WM 6.5.X there are a lot of stuff. So you are free to install whatever you like.
I hope I gives you a fully and useful information.
In case off; just ask.

The most impotent is to follow your needs/taste.
Ons you have discover that part its just flashing
(Impotent no matter witch Rom you decide to take is to read/follow the instructions thy mention on there thread.)
And if after all it wasn't what you expected; you just take a other one.
err, i just got artemis rom ,and whats the diffrence between official rom and artemis rom ? i dont find any diffrence..

Eh? A lot sir;
Fore the beginning it's WM 6.5.X instead of WM 6.5.
secondly you have all the latest manila/OS/packaging versions.
There are also included some useful applications.
And ...
But if you mean; "on the first look it look like Stock Rom"
Yes; it's normal; because Sternas cooked Rom on Stock Rom Philosophy.
Reason way; everyone have a different taste about Look/skin.
so you are free in that part. (but if you used it some wile; you will see the difference by experience)
should i try to flash a custom rom or edit the official wan? i wan my phone to have good speed, eyecandy n good batery life.. i wan to try energy rom but i scared this brick my phone.. would flash a custom rom bricked the phone easily? anyone help pls
I've done both tweak the stock rom and then flashed a custom rom (energy stand 23xxx series) and to be honest i prefer the custom roms over tweaked stock, mainly because i find the energy roms to be more stable, even though i'm using a rom based around winmo 6.5.3.
It's actually not that easy to brick your phone but i would advise you do all the related reading first and i would also suggest you start off by tweaking the stock rom before you flash a custom one. It will give you the opportunity to learn what works and what you like first.
At the end of the day the choice is yours and your fellow users can only make suggestions on the direction you should take
i have been editing stock rom since long ago, n i knw wat i want so i decided to flash an energy rom soon.. thx =)
hi,succesfully done my first rom & radio update now im hungry for more,anyone recommend a good rom out there ?
i put this one on Energy.Leo.21916.Sense2.5.MaxSense.Nov.16
and radio was Leo_RADIO_2.07.50.27_2
its ok but theres probably better yeah ?
and does it just overite the rom and radio versions ive installed,i take it i just do it the same way as my first ?and its roms under 3.14
there is no best; big ROM builders have very nice/good working ROM's.
Every ROM have his good point.
One good tip, test them and if you find a good one keep it ore change it (if you like)
i used to use "Energy.Leo.21916.Sense2.5.Cookie.Classic.GTX.Sep.29" but as I am on Android now i use ozdroid + MDJ 4.3 for android
