We JUST installed CM7.

Niiiiice. I was looking forward to flashing it on my Vibrant but our version is very buggy ATM and lacks a functional GPS

It only took us 1 hours to figure everything out. I'm sure we can root yours in that time too. I'll check it later and let you know.

Nope. It was fairly straightforward.

Asif, look what popped up on XDA... an official HTC Desire Gingerbread ROM!

Here's a modded version from one of my fave devs:

I need to change my ROM. Some processes of the Cyanogen ROM keeps crashing repeatedly, its annoying. Do I need to ext3 partition my sdcard for the ROM above?

One more question. What the hell is a radio and how do you upgrade it?

Radio as in GSM radio. So a radio upgrade refers to updating the driver/firmware for the radio to work better. You upgrade it the same way as installing a new rom. Just get a the radio zip file and flash it.

And there's a non-a2sd version if the rom, so you can download it instead of the a2sd version.

Can I just wipe and flash that ROM you linked above? Do I need to do anything else before flashing a new ROM?

How do I check the current version of Radio on my Desire?

Upgrade the radio first. Then wipe and install this rom.

All I can do right now is boot into the Hboot screen. Do I need to do an ext3 partition first? From what I have read, I can't do that without having the phone completely booted.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Go to settings, about phone, hardware info, baseband version

If you get the no-a2sd version, you don't need ext3.

Got the gingerbread ROM.
