Hi there, please accept my apologies if this topic has been posted (many times) before, but I am having trouble wading through the excellently huge amount of info on XDA-Dev, and am finding myself more confused than informed by the time I have gone through one or two threads Roms.
So, may I ask some very simple questions about what is a Rom, what it does, what information will be specifically interesting for me, what 'Flashing' does, a simple step-by-step ABC of how to 'upgrade' my HTC HD2 with a new ROM to make it work better, and what you may need from me in order to be able to focus my query in the right direction.
Again, apologies if this is a much hacked subject, as I'm certain on such a forum, with the very knowledgable and creative developers it has, you have been approach more than once on this very subject.
Any help is most apprecited.
Oops. Just saw the Sticky for the HTC Q&A forum.
Could you please move this to there? Thanks!

1. Check if something hasn't been asked before
Some questions just keep popping up over and over. Please use the 'search' function in the menu above each and every page in the forum. Try entering a few keywords to see if your question has been asked before. If it has, please read the topics and see if you can figure it our from there.
(We acknowledge that part of the problem is that we never created a well-organized system of FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) documents. But then we're doing lots of cutting-edge stuff, and we'd rather build cool tools than work on perfecting FAQs.

PLEASE USE A SEARCH option of this forum.
For ATOM ROM, its easy to see the thread about the available ROM.
Which is BEST? The thread itself will give you the answer.
About touchflo ROM, we dont have ROM with touchflo already. YOU need to install it separately.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333513 (touchcube.go to general discussion for the touchflo=READ)

Hi all,
I am new to the HTC Hero, which i get in about 1 week. I am NOT new to the forum.
I have a HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) which i flashed a lot.
But now i am going to Android, and i wanted to know a few things to be sure before i completely destroy my Hero in 1 hour..
I see of course, after looking for myself (maybe not good enough), that there are some Sticky's in the forum which explains CID bypassing, make Root, etc..
Is there any topic or document which can explain me step by step, with some referrals to topics on forum, and nessecary files, how i can flash my HTC Hero?
for example: here, here and here (blackstone examples)
Thanks guys
everyone is new at one time or another but seriously you are adept enough to post links to threads for blackstone kacjking you SHOULD have enough about you to be able to read the threads on rooting the hero.
Its a doddle to do and reading a few threads wont kill you.
The threads directs you to the MODACO siter where the files are kept. The Unlcker.com has videos to follow AND links to the files needed (again all these are held in the threads and stickies)
You wont kill the hero and its as easy to unlock these as it is the blackstone (I used to have one so I know)
Enjoy and search is your friend!!
Gurry
btw the thread on rooting is this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=552591
Sorry for the quick posts but the edit function wont work on my work pc!!
thank you, this is helpfull
i already have read the posts about the rooting stuff.
but i just wanted to be sure before i root things etc (hehe) that i wont kill it..
i wont so i am pleased
thanks for the answer!
HI everyone,
I know that this thread has been read and discussed probably many many times. But i know that the phone i have i probably the toughest one to root. I've searched a lot of sites ( unlockers, wiki android, xda and many more) for answers and i have to admit that i've tried only one, the one with goldcard(my rooting process stopped when i tried to flash the recovery and it said that there was sort of a mistake, i don't remember what exactly. I'm not saying that i haven't tried all of the possibilities to root my phone but i'm just asking all of You forum users to help me choose the right one so i won't worry to damage my phone somehow.
Looking forwards to hearing frm You people.
p.s.
I know that user: kad3t had the same problem and he somehow managed to root his phone, i've written him a message but he isn't answering so that is why i'm asking You.
This is the guide I followed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645253
I'm rooted and my phone is still alive
PS -- these types of threads belong in either the General or Q&A sections
Thank You very much. And for the future i'll post that kind of threads in the right forum sections
cheers mate
Thread moved to Q&A.
Helo everybody, i have installed samsung galaxy 2 i9100 rom on samsung galaxy 2 1777.
Most of the keys are not working. so plssssssss i need help here. Thank u
OK, first off, thread titles should be indicative of what your problem is so that they have some relevance when doing a search. Secondly, this is a common problem whose solution can be found by looking at the stickies and doing a search, two things that are expected of members BEFORE making a post.
Flash AJ's Siyah kernel. It'll fix your key layouts. And in the future, please follow the advice of the above poster and use more relevant thread titles.
As Miami says, everything you need is contained in the stickies. However, for someone new, wading through the info may be a little confusing at first, so here's a little guidance. First you will need to flash back to I777 stock. Then if you want to install custom firmware, you can proceed from there.
I would also suggest you use this forum as the most trusted source. Read and study the stickies, also the links in my sig, until you have a good grasp of what you are doing. Then if you have questions, feel free to ask. But you should post them in the Q&A section, not General.
Ok, so I guess that is that then. Nothing for me to do here.
@OP, see the above. You have a Senior and 2 RCs that are guiding you in your ways. But no one can do this stuff for you. I know that Panic Mode has set in and that is fine, but make sure that you Read, Search and Read again before flashing anything.
Edit: Woops!!! Forgot ---> Moved to Q&A
Hi All,
First of all apologies if this has been covered in another thread. I've had a long search around and can't seem to find any answers to my question. If i have missed it please point me in the right direction.
I am looking to install cyanogenmod 10.2 onto my S3 i9300 international (currently running the terrible 4.3 updated update).
My first question is how do I know if clockwork mod is installed on my phone? And if it isn't what is the best way of going about setting it up?
Second question is which kernel should i be using to get the best performance/ battery life balance? Also how do i know which kernel I currently have? ( I literally know nothing about this subject)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to learning all the benefits to custom roms and, hopefully grow my knowledge so i can stop pestering you guys.
Cheers all.
Sticky threads will tell you all need to know, follow the guides and advise.
Best rom/kernel threads are not allowed, as is posting questions in the general thread.
