Gianni, alias Gti for SoloPalmari, with the HTC Desire HD and a tool for geeks:
ClockworkMod Recovery for HTC Desire HD modded by UDK. Who is udK?
He is one of the world's most famous "chef" for Windows Mobile and Android,
and is one of the gurus of Xda-Developers.
The tool is primarily aimed at geeks: simplifies many of procedures for flashing
the ROM and other operations of "modding". For example: create or restore, a backup,
clear cache, reset all memory (wipe), and so on.
Among the advantages there is the fact that it is not necessary to flash the
original recovery partition of the HTC Desire HD. In addition there are numerous
useful functions, like partitioning sd, check the partitions, make backups, restore etc.
To get work ClockworkMod on Desire HD you must restart the system and activate
the recovery mode: it is done by holding down simultaneously, during powering up,
the power button and volume down.
Caution: do not just turn off and turn on your smartphone: because of the Instant
Boot that was introduced by the new HTC Sense, you will not enable the recovery mode.
Once you entered the recovery mode launch the tool, which we called
"update.zip" and we have saved in the root of the microSD.
This modified version created by udK for HTC Desire HD does not currently have a
dedicated function keys: you must press in rapid succession the volume up button,
then the power button.
The tool, which is not publicly available, is prototypal: unfortunately
we don't known the release time.
