Hello,
This is my first post on Xda.
I followed the guides on here recently to Root my HTC Desire C, install Nameless v7 and Sim unlock the phone, which has worked. However I am finding the ROM abit laggy and I ham having problems with the WiFi and 3G data signal.
Is there a way of restoring the original HTC ROM?
I made a recovery file before rooting the phone, is it just a case of restoring this?
Thanks
Nameless rom is outdated. You should try cyanogenmod 10.
But if you still wanna go back to stock, restore that backup.

Hello guys, im planning to root and flash my wildfire device for the first time, i already studied and review all related things on hot thing done in wildfire..
now, the only question and seems not posted here..
As i bought my wildfire the stock ROM version is "1.25.707.1 cl227575 release-keys", where can i download this ROM so that incase i got a problems with different custom roms i can revert it back to my original rom version, i cant seems to find it in SHIPPED-ROMs website..
and if there no such thing as that version in the net, is it possible to backup my original ROM?.. (i guess not because i need first the custom loader to have the backup features which will wipe first my original rom before i can backup)..
Thanks!..
as far as i am aware you can use unrevoked to root your phone. this will also install clockworkmod which replaces stock HTC recovery tool. within clockword mod you can make a backup of your current ROM and all apps and settings etc. you dont need a custom ROM to backup your existing ROM. just need your phone to be rooted. which is pretty much a one click process once you have got the windows drivers installed.
not sure about posting external links on forum but google unrevoked and see this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7895908&postcount=127
good luck
Hi I have just rooted my Legend and installed Cyanogen mod and its all running lovely.... I notice that the nightly builds come out quite regularly.
My question is this....
What is the best way to install the new ROM?
What is the easiest way to get all my settings/ installed apps back? Is there a nice and easy way of backing up everything so that I can install the new ROM and then reinstate everything?
Thanks in advance for any useful info.

Hi ,
One software for all : Rom Manager
With it you can :
backup & restore all your phone (from app or from recovery menu in nandroid area)
It also allow you to download and install other ROM like nightly build
Bye
Not sure if that is what the question meant? I thought they wanted to know how to reload all apps and settings on the new rom, not just how to recover back to the old rom.
I thought titanium backup would be the go, but I myself am still getting the hang of this whole rom flashing thing.
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
If it is just for restoring installed apps, then Titanium Backup would be the best way for me.

Hello, im new here and i have searched the forums and looked in google of how to revert to stock. If i understand correctly,having CM 7.1 i need to:
-Revert to EXT3?
-Download stock ROM?
-Use smartflash tool to instal stock ROM?
The reason i want to flash to stock is because CM camera video performance is getting worse and worse and i need it.
Yes. Those are the right steps to install stock rom.
thank you,i hope i dont brick my phone
The only person that can brick your phone is you. This is just a forum not a work place and we didn't sell bricks.

You can skip step 1. You don't need to revert to ext3 if you're going to smartflash, only if you're going to restore a backup or install a ROM via CWM.
I have made a backup from CwM before install CM7
Can i apply the backup again to the stock rom?
I did this but first I had to do backtoext3 (thanks for Paul obrien) and then flashed my backup. I'd obviously say do a backup of your current rom before you do anything!
I used to installing ICS based Roms in my previous SGS-I9000 and when I needed to revert back to Gingerbread custom rom, I had to use PC odin to do that, since just Nandroid restore will not work.
Is the same thing valid for Galaxy Note?
I am currently in rocket rom and like to try out CyanogenMod 9 experimental Build but wondering if I will be able to simply restore my current rom without the hastle of using Odin. Please advise if you try this already.
Look like no stable CyanogenMod 9 for Galaxy Note for now....
Well it's pretty stable. Bluetooth, Camera and MTP are not working.
But it's possible to restore it to gingerbread with nandroid restore.
I tried it and everything works.
hehehhee i installed ics 4.0 around 6 times and to revert back all you need is just a nandroid backup go in recovery and restore your backup thats it no nothing hope this answers your problem
enjoy

I know this is the wrong thread but since cm9 thread is closed, do you have an HDMI adapter for your Galaxy Note? If so could you tell me if it works on CM9?
Yes, you can restore your NAND backup without any problems. I've done it myself.
Hello, I have an HTC Desire C, Fido. I have unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM recovery. The problem I have is no rom I have flashed has successfully booted. It seems I have to turn S off. I have seen methods to do so but not on my Hboot version.
Is it possible to turn S off on Hboot 1.28?
There is no S-OFF on our phone.
boot.img have to be flashed via fastboot
S off doesn't affect ROMs at all, you must be doing something wrong
I have been flashing the boot.img that comes with the rom I got, Nameless 7.4 build1. Here are the steps I take. First wipe all data though recovery, then flash boot.img, then flash .zip. Upon first boot, there is either a boot loop or boot's to a point of "optimizing applications" then restarts.
What is the best rom for use in Canada? I just installed Nameless 7.4 but it freezes and the first HTC splash screen. I dont want stock.

Hi,
I do have a Desire C from Virgin Canada.
I have tried other custom roms - nameless and revolutionmod. Revolutuionmod is better, but I found it unstable. Dont know if the instability came from the rom itself or the kernel.
After a lot a search I found the best option, for now, to return to the stock rom.
I have removed all the junk (with titanium backup) and the phone runs fast and smooth, with quite good battery life.
Suggestions/warnings:
- apply the ota update, if any quickly and BACKUP your working rom; if you modify the rom, or the recovery, you will not be able to install the ota update
- if ever you'd like to go back to stock rom after mdifying rom/recovery, this would be not possible for now because there is not any canadian stock rom for desire c
- if you install any custom rom, the odds are that the wi-fi will not work; you have the flash a custom kernel, such as prometheus kernel from nikhil, to make wi-fi functionnal.
Sense based ROMs will have WiFi with stock kernel, cm based ones won't even boot with a stock or sense kernel.

I personally hate sense so I went with revolution senseless rom 3.5 because wifi was borked in most others but the amazing devs found a fix for it so you might want to wait for all the patches to get applied to the roms to get wifi working before you make your choice. I also experienced some difficulty when I first rooted a desire c and you're having the same difficulties it seems. My problem was in the kernel. Eventually I just flashed completely stock everything with no mods tweaks or anything special and and booted right up. Try not to do anything fancy till you get the hang things
Let me know I you're having further troubles and I would be glad to help you!

For me wi-fi didnt work. Once I flashed nameless rom, then no stock kernel returned the wi-fi back, even if I restored the stock rome backupd earlier. Flashing prometheus kernel brings wi-fi, regardless of the rom (nameless, revolutionmod, stock).
If I flash a stock rom, with its stock kernel, then wi-fi works.
well fwiw i am in canada and had no issue at all with desense rom,and just flashed the cm10 rom yesterday and lovin it!!
