I've successfully installed Molski's 3.0 ROM on my T-Mobile MDA. Everything seems to be working very well. However, I actually miss my T-Mobile theme and ringtone. Does anyone know if it's possible for me to get them back? If so, how?
You could always extract them from the original t-mobile rom. I assume that they're located in the extended rom which would make it fairly simple...
Forgive my ignorance, but I don't know how to extract files from the original ROM. Is there a program used to extract files from the ROMs, or are you suggesting flashing my phone back to the T-Mobile ROM and copying the appropriate files from my MDA to my PC and back again after re-flashing Molski's ROM?
Yeah... That would probably be the easiest way, just install the t-mobile rom, unhide extrom, copy the cabs you want, reinstall molski's rom, install the cabs and you're good to go...
Sounds good. I'll try that and report back.
Hi, i got the HD in March, and just wonder the benefits of installing a custom rom. Like Dutty's (seems to be popular). I read the threads of the contents in the rom , but what would you push for in this custom roms that isn't in the original rom.
If i flash it, is there a "easy" way to get back to original rom? I guess i HAVE to flash the rom back to original?
Is it diffrent original roms for diffrent countries?
Does the customs incl,
Landscapce mode in sms,mail, browse?
Nice calender, original sucks (looks like win 3.11)?
Last silly question, is there other themes fo customs?
I have understood that the Manilla is the graphical layout, or am i out in the bushes??

Yeah, the only way to get back to a stock ROM is by reflashing it (don't worry though, there are plenty of links to those around here).
And while flashing itself is not without a risk (you can always "brick" your device), I'd say it's well worth it. Custom ROMs generally offer more speed, often more stability (especially those made by well-known chefs), new features (Manila/TouchFlo from the new HTC phones, Touch Diamond2 and Touch Pro2, which includes a newer, nicer calendar) and yes, they very often do have advanced screen rotation.
My Blackstone is currently sporting Davideuck's V-4_HP (that's a WMo 6.1 ROM with the new Manila) and it's probably the best ROM I've ever had on my phone. I recommend you to try that one.
As for themes, yeah, there are a few, especially in Blackstone's "Themes and Applications" subforum. And yep, you understood correctly, Manila (or Touch Flo 3D, as HTC likes to call it) is the graphical interface.
Ok, thanks for the answers. And if you see a thread with a link to a "swedish rom" notify me
So if i understood things right, i install hspl on the phone, boot it up in that "special way" flash it by SD card or custonruu on pc.
Either i put it on the root of the sd card and flash the rom och start customruu on the pc and choose the rom file from there?

Not if you want to flash Dutty's 2.7 or 2.8. You have to use USPL 2.5 and flash a stock 1.56 ROM in advance. Instructions on how to do this are included in the thread of this ROM.
Ok, whats the diffrent between USPL and HSPL ? Can i flash other rom with USPL ? Why do i need to "install" a stock rom 1.56?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you already have stock ROM and have never used HSPL to change your stock SPL, then all you have to do is flash to the new stock HTC ROM (which contains the new SPL you need), and then use USPL to flash a custom ROM.
So if I understood it correctly, this is the way to do it..
I too feel like I'm ready to install a custom ROM and was either considoring
Dutty's or Davaideucks's ROM's but what I wanted to know was, even though
these ROM's maybe more stable and faster, how buggy are they?
Hello,
I'm trying to learn how to install a bone stock T-Mobile 1.5 OEM ROM and allow it to keep root access (I'm not interested in apps2sd, etc.). Can someone tell me what the MINIMUM files are that need to be removed or modified to allow this?
I am currently running enomther's TMO OTA CRC1 ROM US, Cyanogen's 1.4 recovery, Haykuro's bootloader, and the 2.22.19.26I radio. It's all good, but I just want to learn how to tinker with my own stock ROM.
Where I'm at:
I removed the radio and recovery images from the 1.5 OEM (so I wouldn't overwrite the current ones) and various .apks I didn't want. I also removed the check_prereq after noticing it wasn't in enomther's ROM.
After signing the ROM package, I go to install it, and everything looks great until halfway through the progress bar when it hangs on 'couldn't find check_prereq, error on line 1'.
I'm afraid to add it back in because it's not in other modified ROMs. I couldn't find much searching for check_prereq, but assume it compares the current ROM version to the one it is trying to overwrite? I read about signing a ROM with a test key, but was under the impression I was already doing that (using autosign.bat).
Can someone educate me on what else I need to do?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Is there really any difference bettwen OliNex v0.70 and 1.4 or what's the newest version?
i meen why would people put new version, if the old one is doing the same thing?
and also, is it bad for my xperia x1 to install a 3 different custom rom for a DAY i am just checking which is the best one, and why when i install a new rom, old "NOW PLAYING" in windows media player stays?
what should i do, to install clean ROM?
Thank you

I'm not aware of an OliNex version other than 0.72 (except for the mfg spl of course), which hasn't been updated for quite some time
so if you found a v1.4 for the X1 post it here
to erase possible leftovers it's been reported to either flash a stock rom before flashing custom one ore using task29 (rom dev)
do some research and decide for yourself whether to try one of them or not
Best, DK
i have not found v1.4 olinex, i have 0.72 i'm sorry typing error, so what is the difference between your 1.0 and mine 0.72? (they have the same purpose)
hmm, okey, but how to install a stock rom? i know how to install a custom rom, just transfer to sdcard and boot with volume button down.. is it same for stock roms?(just rename it to kovsimg.nbh) where to find stock roms? when i install stock rom, will i still have olinex hard spl?

0.72 = v1.0
install stock rom = install custom rom
find stock roms either through reference thread in rom dev or here
hspl will not be removed as long as you don't flash back to stock spl
Best, DK
so, if i understood you, with mine 0.72 i can install stock and custom rom?
and you with 1.0 can install just custom?
and also, if i install stock rom, i install it the same way like custom one? (tranfer kovsimg.nbh to root of memory card and enter bootloader)
and if i install the stock rom like that, can i then install again custom one, i meen will my hard spl will delete or it's on the special memory of the phone? that i can't change with rom installations? thank you

correct
wrong, what I label as v1.0 is exactly the 0.72 that everyone uses
correct, you install stock like custom roms, either using sd or ruu methods
installing stock rom does not overwrite your hspl, so after stock you can flash custom roms right away, roms do not affect the spl as you said
Best,

Hello. I purchased the Premium Version of ROM Manager, mainly so that I could simply download ROMs to my phone.
However, after I downloaded it, no ROMs are actually downloading or loading.
I use a Samsung Captivate. Before when I had the free version, there was a "free" tab that appeared when I would select the ROM manager, however, now that I have the Premium Version, the same is appearing. Only during one time that I tried to load the ROMs did I get an error message that said there was an error loading ROMs...
Is this a known issue, or an issue at all that is being experienced by other Captivate users?

Most of the ROM chefs haven't added the capability to update the ROMs through ROM Manager. Premium version of ROM manager helps the dev who created it to create and update this tool. Once you download a ROM to SD manually, u can use ROM Manager to install it from CWM.
