if anyone with a branded device wants to test this method befor hand please join IRC : freenode channel #DesireHD

You will need a USB mircoSD card reader.

I'm definitely keen on getting rid of Vodafone bloatware (Australia) but I would like the option of reverting back to my current ROM simply because the warranty becomes void, the moment I flash a new ROM.

I haven't got a DHD, but i'm very interested in it. If i'm going to buy it, i think it will be branded (Vodafone GER). I don't know if the branding will disturb me, but i think updating an unbranded phone is still easyer and faster(!) (because downloading the update OTA or from HTCs page) as waiting for an update from the provider.

If you'll going to write the howto for unbranding DHD, please also mark some notes how to get the phone in delivery of condition (saving branded ROM a.s.o.).

A guide to debranding the Desire HD would definitely be good. Not that I need it, but for those with branded phones, it would be excellent.

T-mobile UK are totally unbranded! Which is awesome, it was too much to hope that they were unlocked as well but hey ho.

Here's your guide :



You just have to replace MMC1 by MMC2 and at the end just install your RUU and that's all.

I have debranded my SFR Desire HD last night using this.

Does this remove the SIM lock too, if you flash an unbranded ROM?

 

[yeepeekai]

I don't think, but just haven't tried yet.

No worries there. Was glad with it till I realized the vibrate was pooched do I have to get a replacement... -_-
