Default Happy with ROM

Installed this ROM this afternoon.

It appears pretty stable.
Took about a half hour and 2 reboots to make the market behave (90% of initiated downloads would consistently fail at first. Now working without problems)
System feels a bit zippier, but can't be sure.

I installed the following mods:

0001_WildPuzzleROM_v2.zip
0010_move_dalvik2SD_v1.zip
0052_kernel_custom_2.6.29_ext4.zip
0300_adds_system_ringtones_and_alarms.zip
0500_remove_htc_apps_similar_to_vanilla_android_v1 .zip

Haven't tried to activate JIT yet. Will try tomorrow.
Also, cannot yet comment on battery consumption.
Seems ok, but have been tinkering with it a bit much to be able to compare.

Hope this helps decide wether to install or not.

Go to unrekoved.com/recovery and read the faq & guide to flash a custom recovery. Read the guide a second time, flash the recovery, then come back to this thread and follow the OP.

Prep

Before beginning the process, I would recommend doing the following to your phone:

(1) If you have the original unrevoked root installed, uninstall it by using "Menu", "Settings", "Applications", "Manage Applications" and scrolling to "Unrevoked" at the bottom. Tap it, click "Force Stop" at the bottom and then "Uninstall", "OK" to uninstall it. Then power off/on your phone just to be sure.

(2) If you haven't already installed the OTA 1.47 update, do it now: "Menu", "Settings", "System Updates", and "HTC software update" at the bottom, then click "Check Now" to get the 1.47 update. If you do this update, it takes up to 10 minutes so be patient and let the phone reboot (a few times) until it is done. Then once the update is done, power off/on one last time to get a clean start.

(3) Set your phone to "Charge Only": "Menu", "Settings", "Connect to PC", tap "Default connection type" and select "Charge Only".

(4) Enable USB debugging: "Menu", "Settings", "Applications", "Development", and put a check in "USB debugging".

The root process

(1) Go to Control Panel on your system and uninstall any "HTC" software such as "HTC Sync".

(2) Download the unrevoked3 install package: Go to
unrevoked3 recovery reflash tool, v3.0 and click "Download for Windows". Save the "Reflash-bundle.exe" file somewhere that you can find it on your system.

(3) Using Explorer, run the "Reflash-bundle.exe" file you just downloaded. It'll ask where to install it. Don't just accept the default: change the install location to a folder you can remember: it's just going to unzip some files there: it isn't really a software installer.

(4) Once the files have unzipped, go to the folder you chose in the above step. You should find an "hboot driver.htm" file in that folder: double click on that to open the html instructions on how to install the drivers. Follow the instructions in the html file starting with downloading the actual driver files at the very top. When you download those driver files and unzip those, those are the files (the folder) you'll point to in subsequent steps in those instructions. When done with the html instructions, you should have drivers installed and shouldn't have to come back to this step.

(5) At this point, if you needed to install the drivers, you are probably still sitting at a boot menu on your phone. UNPLUG the phone from USB and select "Fastboot" and then "Reboot" to reboot the phone to restart it. Before the next step, your phone should be on and booted up in its normal operating state (not some boot menu).

(6) If you are running anti-virus software, turn it OFF or disable it now.

(7) Now go to the folder where you unzipped the reflash bundle (step 3 above). In XP or older systems, just double click the "Reflash.exe" file. On Vista and Win7 systems, I'd recommend right clicking on "Reflash.exe" and selecting "Run as Administrator". While this may not be necessary, I know that some USB drivers get really mad if you try to access the USB port without admin privileges (sorry, I'm a coder so I run into that stuff and warn you so you don't have to) so I did it as a precaution.

(8) You should get a window with "Unrevoked 3" on it (on the computer of course). Just follow the instructions in smaller font below "Unrevoked 3" to finish rooting. Note that when it says "Waiting for device", it wants you to plug your phone into the computer via the USB cable. Note that it wants the wildfire to be fully booted normally (not in the Hboot or recovery menus). The prompts at this point are very specific so no need to repeat them. If all works as it is supposed to, the only thing you really have to do is scroll to an item on the phone and select it when instructed. The rest is automated and should result in a "Done" message. The whole thing at this point took maybe one minute so it isn't something you have to wait for or stare at for a long time so if something gets "stuck" for a while... there's likely a problem.

(9) Don't forget to turn your anti-virus software back ON.

Now, when I followed these steps on my Win7 x64 system, reflash.exe detected the phone and started working (we're in step 8 here) but about 4 messages into the process I got the "communications lost... try again" message that unrevoked refers to on today's Twitter. Some say that (contrary to step 1) installing HTC sync actually solves the problem. I didn't try that. After about 6 tries on my Win7 system and even pulling some "tricks" to try to pause reflash.exe at certain points, I gave up and simply booted my old XP laptop and repeated the above steps and it worked perfectly the first time. At the point of the failure, you hear the two tone usb-device-disconnected sound followed by a use-device-connected sound about 20 seconds later. Somewhere in between is where the "communications lost" message appears so it looks like some sort of USB ack/nack issue. Hopefully it'll be resolved soon. My best advice if you get that error: try a new machine. The XP machine that worked perfectly for me had never seen any HTC software. Maybe that helped. And maybe after I uninstalled the HTC software on my Win7 x64 system (the one that didn't work) I should have rebooted before continuing: I didn't because it didn't prompt for a restart and I couldn't find anything "HTC" running in task manager.

do wipe data/factory reset
put all files to sd from puzzle rom. ( go to partitions menu > mount usb storage)
(put those 01 , 10 , 52 ,300 , 400)
go to nandroid> backup
go to install zip from sdcard
and install files from 01 to 400.
go back and press reboot system now.

Thumbs up A hopefully somewhat clear guide howto flash roms.

I'm just as n00b as you on this. But I'll help you out...

1. After using unrevoked once - reboot your Wildfire.

2. Go to first page on this thread that you read right now.

3. Download the things you want to flash - all links are in the 1st post. - put them on your SD-Card - start with flashing 0001_WildPuzzleROM_v2.zip first - to do this - download that file and save it - anywhere on your SD-card (somewhere you'll remember where you put it). Download and save all you want from 1st post on this thread - to your SD-card...do NOT open the zip files - just copy them to the SD-card.

4. Turn off your Wildfire

5. Turn on your Wildfire while holding Volume Down button - you have to have your SD-card with all the files you want - inside your phone now.

6. This get's you to the boot screen. Wait for HBOOT to say no image...blabla..

7. Push Volume Down to get to option "Recovery" - press Power button.

8. Phone will Reboot to a white HTC screen - and from there go to ClockworkMod Recovery screen - if you did everything correct.

9. Press Volume Down several times - until you get to option "nandroid"

10. Press the round button at the bottom of your Wildfire - the one you use to take pictures when using Camera functions, let's call it the Camera button.

11. You see "Backup". Press Camera button, and wait until it's done backing up your system. Do NOT turn off your phone! Wait until it's done. It will say Backup complete!

12. Next if you want. But only if you want - you don't have to - you can Wipe / Factory Reset your phone, saves a lot of ROM space and Memory. Phone WILL be slightly faster if you choose to do this - but all your programs and settings will be gone - Your choice.

IF you do NOT want to Factory Reset your phone, skip steps 12 & 13.

IF you want to do this then push Volume Down until you get to option "wipe data/factory re" (probably reset, but only show until re on my phone) and then press the Camera button.

13. As to make sure you really want to do this, you need to confirm... push Volume Down until you reach option "Yes -- delete all u" - then press Camera button and wait.

14. Now you can start flashing. Push Volume Down until you reach option "install zip from sdcard" Press Camera button.

15. Push Volume Down until you reach option "choose zip from sdcard". Press Camera button.

16. Find where you put the files you downloaded from post 1 on this thread. Choose 0001_WildPuzzleROM_v2.zip. Press Camera Button.

17. Push Volume Down until you reach option "Yes - Install 0001_W". Press Camera button. Wait for it to be done.

18. Repeat steps 14-17 with the other files you want to flash. IF you want to Flash files that are 0900 or higher. Reboot and change Wallpapers before you do.
To reboot Press Power button to go back and Press Camera button on option "reboot system now". Then repeat steps 5-7. If you need help changing wallpapers too let me know and I'll try to explain that too.

When done flashing the files you want. Reboot. And you're done.
First reboot after flashing Wild Puzzle Rom takes a very long time. Be patient.

I hope this guide made sense. If there's anything unclear let me know and I'll be happy to clarify. Thanks and Good Luck!

*EDIT* Just saw that someone else made a guide too, well at least there are people wanting to help us n00bs. Thanks. and I think both guides should work. Hopefully you'll make some sense of them *ENDS EDIT*
