Question htc rom tool devices - Shadow ROM Development

What device settings do you use to build the rom?

Use the Excalibur rom settings. If you want, though you don't need to change the EXCA**** to PHOE***. You can type in anything for the version, but leave CID as it is.
I smell a rom in the works..

Need to know which ROM is right 4 me! Advice plz!

I need to find a very stable, clean ROM (BTW, does clean just mean it only has default apps? Thats all I want). Would prefer it to be AKU 3+
Would appreciate advice, thanks!

for the cleanest rom in the forum, i have to go with xplode rls. he's still fixing few issues, but it's great so far.
In that case, is there an older version of xplodes ROMs that I could try?
(more stable, but lower AKU?

dont think so. u may wanna try helmi_c rom, it's one fine rom with few extra apps mostly are useful. u may not install exta apps in extrom folder if u dont want to.
Have not installed xplode's ROM yet, need to ask a few questions - would really apreciate answers, thanks guys!
Is this ROM unlocked to all networks?
Also, what is "EnterBL" in the folder for?
Do I need to do anything before installing?
Thanks,
Tom

my guess would be check whether the device is in bootloader mode or not.

Yes you do.
1. you will need to get your devicedata.txt (pls refer to the wiki)
2. set the operator on the nk.bf
3. then flash it
if this your first time flashing u may also wanna resize your extend rom to 128kb. wiki has tutorial on how to do that.
So do I need to use the SetOperator file from Helmi to set the operator?
My device is currently set to Orange UK, so if I reset it to Vodafone would this work?
Also, why do I need to check whether the device is in bootscreen mode? If it is, I wont be able to start up an application ?!?!?
If anyone has a readme for xplode's rom, I would be very greatful.
Oh, and I do not use extended ROM. Can I continue not to use this in Xplode ROM?
The MaUpgradeUt_noID file in the ROM has a picture of another pda to the left of the dialogue. Is this OK?
OK, I know I'm bombarding u with questions, but better to be safe than sorry! How do I install a fix (the powerpoint one) to the ROM?
Tom
OK, this is now resolved. Please lock topic

I think that's an early Tilt ROM that was "test only" but worked OK - if you aren't having any problems there's no pressing need to change - but there are newer ROM's out there, so read all about how to flash and take the plunge if you like, but read read read first!

If it is an actual AT&T 'Tilt' you own, you may want to try the new ROM release on the US HTC site which should be straight forward for a novice. If you are using another carrier then as the previous poster said, Read as much as you can about ROM upgrading on the WiKi before you even attempt a cooked ROM upgrade.

X1 ROMs

As and when Official ROMs for the X1 become available, I shall add them to here.
If you have an Official ROM or know of ones existence, PM me, or post below to get it added to the list!
Build 19949 ROM
Can I use also another ROM - if ys - which on for my Xperia ?
Umm... Unless the ROMs have an RUU, and the correct CID, no. And, since I haven't seen an X1 RUU anywhere, I doubt you'd be able to flash a new ROM.
Dude, this rom is a beta
i have tried to port to the g900 and i did
it says "thanks for development....." few minutes later and stopping the OS
damn... i wasted my 2 hours

yes, its a beta version. so replace the shell32.exe from Shell folder in SYS with your original ROM's shell32.exe.

What are the details of this ROM? AKU and Operator?
"What are the details of this ROM? AKU and Operator?"
not an expert but doubt that a prereleased device have operator settings or comes with a contract for that matter

I wouldn't flash any radio until your device is security unlocked.

Would anyone be willing to try a custom ROM?
It will be basically a clean version of the original TP2 ROM. If it boots and everything works well then we can get into modifying it more
Provide link - I'll give it a go.
My device is security unlocked anyhows...
Did I miss the creation of Hard SPL?
Security unlock doesn't remove the signature checking does it?

I'd like to try it on my Kaiser, but it won't work.
Firstly the bootloader won't let you flash it, but if it did, the ROM sure are hell wouldn't run

That would only get the data onto the Chip. It would be easier to patch the HD's bootloader to skip the partial model ID check so the ROM no longer has to match BLAC**** (or use NHBUtil to change the Image's Model ID to BLAC10000 from RHOD21000 - might also work).
Either way, the drivers and Kernel in the ROM will be all wrong. That's why ROM's have to be "ported" to other devices and not just patched and flashed.

You say that, but the Rhodium and Blackstone are very similar in terms of hardware, so it probably would boot. The keyboard drivers would all be wrong, but most of the OS would work straight off...
If you can get around the device ID checking that is.
