No mater witch stock ROM you choose; thy have all the same rule.

Hello all. Sort of new to the whole custom rom scene and have been trying to find install instructions to follow for flashing a custom rom on my xv6800. I have found the wiki page on this site, which to me is very confusing and I have also found http://ppc.stoleyour.net/xv6800/ Which one of these is best to follow or is there a better guide? Second question, what is the difference between a rom and a kitchen and are both needed?
The link you found has the proper steps. Both are fine and if one makes more sense to you then use it. Although, I would suggest you use the latest DCD Rom 3.2.6 and the latest radio rom 3.42.50 when hacking your phone.
The difference between dcd's rom and kitchen is that a rom is a pre-made (cooked) rom and the kitchen allows you to make your own rom with added or removed features. In my experience, I would strongly suggest sticking to DCD's precooked rom and just install your missing programs from there. It makes upgrading each individual program so much easier then having to cook a new rom and flash your phone again.
Cool thanks for the response. Yes, I was going to go with rom 3.2.6 and radio 3.42.50. I notice the newest officail rom update from HTC enables support for 16gig micro sd cards, does dcd do this as well?
Is it possible for anyone to use the updated Da_G kitchen to make an updated Clean rom?
I have been trying to do it on my own, but for some reason I cannot get it to work. I'm not very good with this stuff and I know that if I make a mistake I will end up with a messed up phone.
So please please pretty please, will someone update the Da_G clean rom?

Da_G already did off the att leaked rom, its in the att rom thread
If the Da_G 'leaked' ROM is still not satisfactory, have a look at these threads:

Da_G's simple ROM Kitchen
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471288
If you're having issues after that, don't hesitate to post a clear description of your problem in the Da_G's simple ROM Kitchen thread. Most of the chefs that follow the thread usually try to offer some insight.
HTH,
Yeah, the reason I asked for help is I'm not really good with stuff like that. And I can't be running the risk of bricking my phone. Hence me asking for someone to cook a rom up. And I'd rather not use the testing rom.
I'll assume you have already SPL'ed your phone with Olipro/OliNex HardSPL'ed.
Here's what I'd suggest;
Go through the [TUT] Sous-Chef's Guide to Da_G's Simple Kitchen guide. In a nutshell, the guide walks you through the entire process using an official HTC 5.05.405.1 ROM.
At the end of the guide, you will have a flashable end product that you can flash to your device. Since your HardSPL'ed, you will be able to recover in the event of a problem since all you are flashing is the ROM part - not the SPL, Radio, or Splash screen. Recovery would be a matter of flash a different cooked ROM or the .NBH file from the official HTC 5.05.405.1 ROM that you downloaded.
Once you feel comfortable with that, download Da_G's Simple ROM Kitchen (21402, Apr). It contains a good selection of packages that many of the Chefs use at the moment - i.e. they work. ;-)
Then if you have questions, post in the Da_G Kitchen thread - not this one.
HTH,
Download his 6.5 kitchen and follow the directions on his thread and you're good to go. Load the notsolitefuze, make sure if you have a CDMA phone you do none of this or the above lol.
Hey guys.
I dont have a clue on how to flash a phone or backup a rom from my phone. is anyone able to help me out.
All i ever see are download locations to roms but i never see any applications for flashing phones or backing up.
Basiclly im looking for a tutorial.
Wait is it even possible on the neon yet?
Thanks in advance.
All the downloads should normally include the two files required to flash: the ROM itself (.nbh file) and the exe to actually do it.
Before flashing you should make sure you have the latest version of HardSPL installed which should stop you bricking your phone if anything goes wrong (see this thread for info).
As far as WM6.5 on a Neon I've not seen any ROMs. The files have to be ported to the device and then cooked into a ROM using a kitchen - not sure what people are using but I've seen mention of using the Kaiser kitchen with Neon settings.
There's no single tutorial, it's a case of reading around the different threads and piecing the bits together. It's just that there seem to be fewer Neon's around so there's not much of a focus on development for them.
Oops the link was to a WinMo 6.1 ROM. The 6.5 ROM I was thinking of is actually for the TyTn. So... nope, no 6.5 for Neon.
I'm a noob as well, but flashing is really quite simple. Just install the Neon HardSPL (there's only one as well), update the radio if you want to, then flash the ROM. Everything's packaged in the downloads, just run the exe.
May want to check your link : )
Okay I have searched, looked at videos, commented some topics but still I have not found my answer.
If I was to download this Android Build: (Ex. [BUILD]15.09.10|mdeejay Froyo Sense v. 2.1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780525
or
[BUILD] [18.08.2010] [darkstone HD2Froyo V2.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735532
Do I need to download anything else other than what's already included in the Android Build? I keep hearing about this radio rom, Cooked rom, etc.
Do I need that stuff?
Thank you very much.
They are READY-TO-USE BUILD....
I am no expert but this is my understanding, most importantly Android causes problems somehow with the stock ROM on you HD2 so you will want to put a custom WinMo ROM onto the phone before you try using Android. In order for you to flash to a different WinMo rom you will need to follow the va0rious steps there too, there are a lot of great guides on the forums but during that process you make your phone able to take major changes (like ROM and Radios).
All the guides include steps on how to change your Radio as well as the ROM, I know there is at least one stickied in the ROM discussion forum (not Android ROM). The builder of the Android you choose will invariably offer suggestions as to what ROM they use for WinMo and what Radio they have had the best results with. That is what I think you are talking about as far as Radio in relation to Android. Like WinMo different Radios are more or less effective, and even more so than WinMo they can cause major havoc if you disregard the instructions about what Radio you should use (I know of some that will apparently brick the phone)
I am sure someone that knows more than me will answer sooner or later but hope that helps
1. Install HSPL if you are still on Stock ROM
2. Install Android Compatible WM ROM from this forum (ChuckyDroid,OzDroid,VBNROM)
3. Install Radio >= 2.08.50.xx (Dont install .51 Radio)
4. Install Android build of your choice as instructions in respective threads
For all the above, search using keywords HSPL, etc and you will reach gold.
PS : I am not responsible for you bricking the device. If you are hesitant, dont do it !
Hi im new and i wana know how t flash my hd2 i was reading alot on this forum about that and i have to tell you im very confused can anyone post a tutorial on how to flash a hd2 and instal new rom radio etc thnx
First of all go to the Rom thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
Read the first stickies thread's
Make a choice on with Rom you will use
Read the instructions on there thread And follow it
If you have done all that there will be no problem.
Ow bay the way, if you follow the link in my signature "Q&A: How? Where? what? Ideas? [New Users?]" there are some questions treated that almost every new user have.
hi i read al that pages and like i sead im confused the task 29, hspl, rom, bootloader etc i cound figure what do i have to do 1 what 2 etc..
Fore the moment you are on stock Rom I suppose!?
So here some steps:
- First of all install HSPL; take care of your device and the Rom you will install
- Secondly Install your Radio of you choice (in case you will changed) (respect the radio version's who are compatible with your device (USA model ore no)
- Thirdly do a task 29; not necessary but recommended!
- Fourthly, install your cooked Rom of your choice
- Fifthly a hard reset after installation of your Rom is recommended
- Sixthly after Rom reset, and you add your settings, when you saw the Manila home screen do a soft reset
- Seventy you are now able to restore your customization; settings; backup
That's it!
