Ok...aah i am tired of searching and reading threads for hours and days....
Now finally i need some serious help on my HTC.
I Have a rooted HTC Aria/Liberty running 2.1 from my brother and i need to update this.
Can any one explain step by step how do i do that?
What rom would you like to update to? A default 2.2 rom, a rooted/modded 2.2 rom, CyanogenMod, a GingerSense rom? I can help you out with all of 'em.
EDIT: Here's a step by step from the stickies in the development thread.

Well i am definitely not going back to a default 2.2 rom, and so as my device is already rooted so i prefer a rooted 2.2 rom and besides i love to have CyanogenMod if it doesn't have any "not working" portion
please tell me how can i start over from where my device already now becuse here in step by step thread is showing me from the top of rooting
TIA.

Hi all, I just received my HTC Hero. It currently has the default android 1.5 rom.
What is the BEST rom update that is stock, no changes and which version?
There is 1.6, 2.0 and 2.1
What do you advise me to get and why?
Also, lastly, please could someone send me a link with instructions of how to update rom/software needed for update as I don't want to brick a brand new phone.
Regards.

hasn't been developed on this forum....? Just check the HTC website for your latest retailer's ROM. They have instructions on there, if you're unable to follow "double click the exe to update" then please post somewhere else..... anywhere else..... preferably far away from here
I don't really know why your asking which stock rom is best on a forum which develops customised roms... on the other hand, if you want a guide explaining step by step how to install a customised rom (which are often far from stock) please read the first guide in my sig.
It is entirely up to you which ROM you pick but if you're going to create ANOTHER topic about which rom is "best" please read the Q&A section first and post in one of the hundreds of topics which have already been created in there!

Cheers! I will visit HTC's website and follow rom update instructions...
So I just downgraded my HD2 to 2.08HSPL, but now I don't know what to do. I'm still new to this and been trying to downgrade my phone for a while and finally did today. I want my phone in Android build, so do I just go into a thread under Android Developments and download a build, put it under the "root" folder (I still have no idea where this is), and install it there from my phone? Please help, thanks in advance. :]

or even better, go into the android section and read a "how to instal android" thread, there are several.
Or, again in the android section, you could ask your question in the very aptly named
"HD2 Linux/Android Q&A Thread - ASK YOUR QUESTIONS HERE!!" thread.
^^^ Thanks, haha, sorry still new this whole Android thing >_>
This is my first android phone. Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant. I plan on rooting my phone tomorrow and I was wanting to put 2.2 firmware on the phone. I have been told that there are different roms and such and I was hoping someone here could tell me which is the best way to go about upgrading my phone. I tried reading some threads but I am not sure which is the best way to go. Any help would be appreciated.
If you've never rooted your phone and installed a custom ROM before... Read, read, read these forums and especially the thread for the ROM you are thinking of installing. Know how to get yourself out of a jam before you even get in it.

+1...This is what I followed when I flashed my wifes vibrant awhile back, and followed again just a few days ago when I picked mine up.
As for 2.2 ROMs...you will just have to play with them. I would recommend starting with flashable ROMs as they are a little easier to work with if you do not have a lot of experience with flashing
I might suggest this one if you want a no frills basic 2.2 stable, rooted ROM to work with

Thread cleaned. Stop the flaming.
Thanks for the replies! I will start off with that nice guide on how to root the phone. I get the phone tomorrow so hopefully I will not be in here crying about how I ruined my phone. The last phone I modded was the first gen iPhone a few years back. There are so many different things to read that this is a little confusing. I mostly created this thread to get pointed to what works best for those on this forum.
After OTA official Froyo update my Legend I would like the Legend rooted.
If someone could help me, how do I can rooted, very thank you.
Hi,
1: I think you're in the wrong section...
2: read Development section, there are howtos on this topic
Good luck!
I’ve been on this forum for a few weeks now and seen many posts on rooting/s-off etc, and I am confused over the options. (thanks to Globatron and others for their hard work). I was hoping that someone could give me the right reference.
I have the stock View with GB and the OTA update has been staring at me for some time now. I don’t (yet) want to upgrade To HC but I do want to do things like backups, remove Sprint bloatware etc. I understand that I have to root the device to do this. Can anyone point me to the steps necessary to root my stock View? Do I just run the prerequisite steps in Globatrons thread? Which steps specifically?
If I do this, and later decide to update to the OTA HC update, will that brick the View? Do I have to use one of the custom ROMs (and approaches) documented here?
Also, if someone here does a custom ICS ROM for the View, could we go from GB direct, or would we have to go GB > HC > ICS?
Thx for your help.
This thread does not belong in development. It belongs in the general section. The development forum is for just that threads that are about development (roms, kernels, recoveries, tools) and not for general how to questions or questions on how to root.
