It will keep you on the right track.

Also, just a quick mention, the official ROM wont be Android as the HD2 is a WinMo 6.5 device... So dont get your hopes up anyhow.
Pop into the HD2 Android NAND forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=928) if you want an english Android ROM on the device, or you can start off by installing one onto your SD card

Upgrading from t-mob rom any point yet?

I know theres a few updates about but is it worth upgrading the t mob rom to one of the others?
I cant really see any benefit from the posts.
Any help you guys?
p.s I am usually the first to upgrade the roms on my old devices.
rom =1.21.110.3
radio 1.05.05.00
I make with my German Vario II an ROM Upgrade to the newest HTC SA ROM!
and now...I have "NO" Problems
Is this better then the S.A rom?
New T-Mobile Hungary ROM version 1.21.116.4 (WWE)
I would not advise upgrading the ROM just yet, I would wait until the end of January to see if the widely rumored ROM from HTC materializes. But if you do not mind installing all your software again and configuring your phone again in a few weeks then give 1.35 ROM a try as it fixed a few problems I was having.

Hello,
Sorry this is my first post...
I am with t-mobile... If i was to upgrade to the SA rom, would this effect my 3g settings as I use my phone as a modem for my laptop...
Hey, I'm in exactly the same position. This is my third HTC device and with my past magician and wizard I would be on a new ROM every couple of weeks but I just have not bothered with the hermes yet, I guess I'm still holding my breath for an official tmobile uk on as I've alwas found them to be the most stable.

DO you suggest any ROM versions for Indian HD2
Hi I have indian HD2 and i'm planing to upgrade my ROM
I have ROM 1.48.720.2 nd Radio version 2.05.51.05_2
Since all of you guys over here have some experience in Flashing your HD2 please suggest me some ROM versions to Flash because when i see this forum i find lots of options and i'm really confused in selecting the ROM.
Thanks
Best bet...
1) HSPL it
2) Change the Radio (go for radio which has .50 to enable 576 RAM)
3) Download custom ROM from here and flash via USB

Check first of all what version of ROM you already have installed.
Menu > Settings > About Phone > Build Number. (2.73.110.26 Latest)
If you require an update then you can go to the HTC website, enter your S/N and if there is an update available you can download the ROM and update it. Just double click the file and follow the instructions on screen.

Excellent news!!! Will keep an eye out in April. I have debranded it now using the Goldcard Method but let's see if the debranded version will release the new firmware too!
If you have a T-Mobile G2 you can't install any updates from HTC.
You have a phone supported by T-Mobile (bad luck, me too) and so you have to wait for T-Mobile to release their own version. Sadly 2.1 will be anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 Months after HTC release their Official 2.1 Update.
Check the T-Mobile forums for all the news on Updates and the Twitter site!

You don't *have* to wait - you can always install a generic ROM if you wish.

I have done some research about this Rom version because I didn't know this Rom version but it seams to be a South East Asia Rom version you have.
If this is correct, that's the reason way you can't access the new Rom on the HTC website because it's based on EU users.
so as in htc doesnt provides any support for the south east asian versions?

Ow, I don't recommended to flash this EU version on a hard way. Some peoples have tray it and it isn't a good thing, trust me.

Yes, cooked Rom are more flexible!
It isn't complicate just read and follow the information that the Rom builder mention.
thanks kurt! ..btw just wanted to know if htc releases the roms only for some specific region as in will they actually release a south asian rom update? and can you point me to some thread relating to battery life of the hd2? deosnt last a day with all the updates turned off

- Yes official HTC Rom updates are regional
- When will thy released a south asian Rom?? I don't know I don't work fore them, and there isn't a logic?
- Battery live is related to different point's; most influent is the Radio version.
I must be honest till yesterday personally I was only satisfy with the 1.07 radio I tray them all, just yesterday I tested the new 1.15 radio and I must say "thats the one!" fore my used, it depends of your location and in combination of the Rom
If you don't have a clou about a Rom take a look on the Artemis Rom (It's the one I used, and very happy with it) (You can find the link in my signature)
PS this is a suggestion, based on my experience but I'm sure if you ask 10 peoples with one is the best Rom you will get 7 different answer if it is not 10!

[Q] European HTC Gratia ROM.

I have read almost every thread on upgrading the HTC Aria operating system, in particular the "Liberated" ROM or excellent Cyanogen.
... now it's finally appeared the HTC Gratia and then there is a "official" version of Froyo with Sense on the air.
What I see however is that there are available only "asian" ROM and not "european", so I ask if anyone has tried to upgrade the Aria with the european ROM, and then with english / french / spanish / italian language.
I ask this because I understand you can upgrade later with an application, but would remain the language of the T9 and other things in English.
Is possible to get an update in italian (or French, spanish, etc ...) complete, with T9 in italian and the ability to dictate italian destinations in Google Maps and navigate then with the signs in language?
There is a port of the European Gratia? Or what ROM I use to use a European language, Cyanogen?
Thanks.
(sorry, I read a lot of post buth none about using FULL language different from english or chinese)
Same question here. I bought an Aria a few days ago and now I want a complete German OS.
Is this possible?

I am also looking for the Gratia stock ROM. I am running CM7 at the moment and have the problem that my NAND backup of my original ROM is corrupt. I would like to be able to go back to stock.
Could somebody make a Nandroid backup and upload it? Thanks!
Yeah me too.
I'm lookin just for regular stock HTC Gratia WWE rom. All i found are asian version of RUU ROMS and from diferent operaters
I have backup from clockworkmod recovery. Should I share it? (I can do it after Jul, 18th)
Whats the problem with visiting the HTC site and getting the RUU for your device? I assume if they sell the phone there they have an RUU update for your country?

There's no RUU for the Gratia.
So if there is no RUU for the Gratia, then what we are talking about here is a custom ROM, which sounds like exactly the opposite of what these guys want. They want an official 2.2 update for their phone, that DOESN'T exist obviously.
i believe this is the leak of the gratia 2.2 rom.its before the asian rom was released.

No, they just want the original stock Gratia ROM. The ROM that comes on your phone when you purchase a new Gratia. It's not custom at all. But since there isn't a Gratia RUU, you can't just extract the ROM out of the RUU zip file and flash it like you could with the stock AT&T ROMs for example.
So the next best thing is to acquire a Nandroid backup that someone made immediately after S-OFFing their phone (but before altering the installed ROM), which is what the last few posters are looking for.

Re-read the OP, they're asking for froyo. Which doesn't exist for the Gratia. Check the HTC website yourself if you don't believe me.

The website is wrong. It's a typo/misprint/whatever. Every Gratia ever sold came with Android 2.2.
I searched a little bit and this is version that i need RUU_Liberty_Froyo_S_HTC_WWE_2.37.405.10_Radio_47.54.35.20_7.13.35.13_release_164736_signed but i can't find it anywhere

I don't remember seeing the actual shipped Gratia RUU/ROM in the development section. However, ATTN1's Liberated Aria 2.2 FR008 is based on the shipped Gratia ROM, so I would suggest you flash that.

Hi,
I think there are some stock Gratia ROMS somewhere in this forum. But I wonder what you are trying to achieve and what you expect? The Liberated Aria 2.2.2 is not much different from a stock Gratia ROM. The major differences are that is uses a new kernel, is rooted, supports ext4 and some other advantages. But to be honest I don't think you will even know the difference! Or are you planning to sell your phone and want it back to factory defaults?
