Hi everyone!

Right now I want to reanimate my old HTC Desire HD and I search for a custom ROM that will work well with it.

I tried CM13 and CM12.1 in aceopt version and it don't works. I get a message "Encrpytion unsuccesful" like here shown: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ht...om-cyanogenmod-12-1-nightlies-t3070621/page86

So right now I search for a another working version, so the device will come back to life.

Greatings ...

Hi,
Try CM11, it was working very well when I have been using my DHD.
SVHD is also a very good ROM, so stable and bug free, but unfortunately it is only Android 4.0.4.

Maybe you didn't prepare your phone to flash aceopt version of this CM (read the instructions in cm's thread)? Maybe try a normal version, if it exists?

Yes I think I will give CM11 a chance. And I think that a lot of apps that don't run under 4.0.4 could run with 4.4. SVHD is very good, but more and more geocaching apps I use don't work with it. On 4.4 they should.

It is my replacement smartphone, when my main, a Samsung S5 Neo don't work or so.

I tried, but I don't know if i do something wrong.

Take a look at this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77774761&postcount=5382
I'm afraid the phone would be very slow with encryption enabled.
Best thanks!

This is great. Security patch is from 01.08.2018 and it is already LineageOS. Seems to work great. The only problem I have with it is, that Google Play Service stopped. Maybe I solve this.

First look is great.

Maybe installing this ROM without Google play services and using microG or yalpstore instead of them would be a better idea? ;)
