Hello ,just joined as i thought this was a cracking site with loads of info and the best place to find help .I have just bought a hd2 as i wanted the latest windows based mobile with a very large screen as i often use memory map and tom tom together ,i have been using both on the XDA ii with out any problems but the trouble was it had a seperate gps reciever ,also the camera was'nt very good .
Couple of questions i need help with please
I have installed memory map and it seems to run fine but is there a way of rotataing the screen on the hd2 from potrait to landscape ?
I have TomTom 7 Version 7.915 PPC ,will this work on the hd2 and is it as easy to install as it was on the XDAii i had ?
I am not very technicaly minded with these things so a very simple guide is what i am looking for .
I have used the search function but not with any success
Thanks in advance
Anyone help please?
You have to be careful which version of TomTom you install.
Here is the 7.917 version which will work with your HD2 - * TomTom v7.917 *
obviously you still need to buy the maps - as this site does not allow warez.
Sorry, I've no idea about Memory Map.

Plenty of ways of doing that: -
BSB Tweaks - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589305
Gyrator - http://gyrator.brins0.net/
and probably some others I've forgotten
Try the search function on the forum. "rotation" and "search thread titles" turned up these results - http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=41837256
PS - Speaking from my own experience, I can confirm rotation of Memory map works using BSB Tweaks.
Brilliant guys, just what i was looking for
I have just installed tomtom and it works fine
Just off to have a look about rotating memory map
Many thanks and no doubt i will be back for more help
Can i install the bsb tweaks straight to my phone and everything will carry on working or will i need to reinstall memory map and tomtom after ?
Install BSB & carry on. No need to reinstall Memory Map, etc.
Trying to install bsb tweaks as you have mentioned ,i am trying to follow the video about flashing a custom rom mentioned on another thread , but when i attempt to run the custom ruu ( i downloaded it from this site seperate as one did'nt come with the BsB tweakes ) it keeps telling me" cant install check update utility "
This is what is on my screen
PB8110 XH-BC
SPL-1.66 HSPL XE
0x5
CotulllaHSPL 0x30
I have noticed that the spl is different on the video ,will that make a difference and how do i change it ?
Thanks again

spl doesnt matter so long as it ends '.hspl'
The error you got sounds like you havent put the roms.nbh file in the same folder with customruu.exe.
Just those two files in a folder on their own.
BUT you do know bsbtweaks isnt a rom, right? its a program that you install like any other, nothing to do with customruu.

No did'nt know that ,how do i install the bsbtweakes program ?
Told you i was no good at these things
like all programs. Copy the .cab file to your phone, anywhere (most people have a folder on their sd card for such purposes) then on the phone open up file manager, browse to where the file is, and click it to run it.
Thanks very much
I have installed all these to the sd card
Setup.xml
000bsbtw.001
00tweaks.000
0cab4a7.004
manila 1.002
openne 1.003
When i run the setup file it takes me to opera .nut nothing happens
If i try to open anything else i get the message ,"there is no application associated ,run the application first .
Dont know what i am doing wrong ,someone please help ?
nope, you have extracted the cab. (The pc thinks cab files are a type of zip file)
Dont do that. Copy the single cab file (bsbtweaks.cab or whatever it is called) to the phone and click it to run.
Cheers for the help yet again ,i have installed it and it seemed to install correctly ,yet when i ran the application it said it needs a newer version of microsoft for it to work ,any idea what i need now ?
Thanks again for your help
sorry, never seen that before. does it work? if it does ignore the warning.
Just figured it out ,there is another file that i needed to upload and it is just the bsbtweake cab file ,many many thanks for your help again
ahhh microsoft framework, thats a different thing.
heres teh microsoft download page for it
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en

Your search keywords are ".net framework 3.5"

plsss anyone who cud just give a couple of min and tel me the full produre to get andriod rom.pls reply
Firstly, thanks for putting so much information about your phone.
All you need to do is go to the Android ROM section for the HD2 on here and select an ROM you like the look of. The chef of the ROM gives instructions on how to get Adnroid running.
You are not flashing Android to your phone, but actually running it from the SD Card. You download the files into a folder called Android in the root of the SD Card. Then you run two files in this folder. WinMo will shut down and reboot into Android (this initial boot will take about 20 minutes).
There is also an app in that section which gives you the option to switch between operating systems at bootup - this is installed in WinMo.
The only problem I have found is the first boot back to WinMo is that the time and date was totaly wrong. That problem disapeared the next time.
I won't recomend which ROM to use, as I haven't used Android that much and what I might like you may not.
thnxs for replyng but just tel me as there r too mny options ..i just need help tht wht rom wil b suitble for mine as it says tht u have 2 hve rom 10.6 or 201. sumthng like tht..
n i think i cudnt find tht andriod section for hd2..cus u give me a link plss
The only real requirement is to have a RADIO 2.8.50 or above (of the .50 type) - which you already have on your phone.
* HERE * is the one I used. I downloaded '512MB data.img' and 'DOWNLOAD v. 4.6'. I unzipped them and placed the files in 'Android' in the root of the SD Card. Used file explorer on the phone to run "CLRCAD.exe" then "haret.exe". The phone then booted into android. It looks good and runs well, although I haven't fully tested it. If you want to replace it with another, then simply replace the Android Folder.
I'm not giving you answers but i wanted to advise you :
When you use correct grammer and spelling, Good English, you will get more attention and more people will answer your question
yes thnk u soo much it wrkd but battry drains very fast..and why does it goes bck to htc sense after everytime its off.....do i need to run haret al the time after i switch it on?? arnt there any method where i can let it be on andriod ..??

your android system will remain the same, apps, contacts and all, every time you reboot - if you do not upgrade/update your android files.
And yes, you do need to go thru the same steps every time you reboot your phone. Run CLRCAD, then HARET.
There are a couple of autoload/booters floating around the forums. I personally use m_skip's autoloader (do a search, sorry, I don't have the link)
And yes, android does use up the battery pretty fast. There are a lot of helps to stop this - but you need to do your own searching on that in the android threads

thnxs a lot for ur help..but the u tube is nt working everytime i clik a video it says video canoot be played
I'm mostly a business user and neither Android or WP7 can fully do what poor little 6.5 can do as of now.
I did search this & saw in a link in:
HTC Leo: HD2HD2 Windows Phone 7HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A and General
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922030
but I thought that since 6.5 would have to be ported to an SD card, this topic shoould be in HD2 6.5 section? So I thought I'd start a thread here for any news or updates....
I know Cotulla/DFT is working on it. I would imagine there'd be a great interest in this. I personally can't wait.
Also a Question:
If/when it is ported, would a ROM have to be specifically made for each port i.e. Dutty ROM or KWBR ROM or would you be able to drop any ROM onto SD card?
I guess with 300,000+ subscribers I'm the only one....

I'm sorry if i come off as impatient. I'm really not. Just thought if the interest level was high, it would be more likely to happen sooner. I'll live just fine with what i got until it happens.
Me too
Would be great.
"poor little 6.5 can do as of now"....
well in my opinion it's not., my 6.5 is a BEAST! thats why i didnt switch yet to wp7 or android.. winmo 6.5 is the main source of everything stable and fast.. without it there will be no wp7 and android on our hd2..
Hi, I also would like this to happen, as i have inported WP7 to my HD2 which is good but lacks good apps.
As for WP7 im looking for a good sat nav like Tomtom and Copilot live 8, but they both say that they are not making one for WP7.
Thats why I would like to run WP7 and have a SD bootable WM6.5 for Tomtom or Copilot which I had before on my HD2 WM6.5
So please can someone make one
I to think being able to boot Window Mobile 6.5 from SD would be really awsome. We all know that the DFT has annouced they are working on makeing this possible but I beleive this is going to be even harder and take much longer than Andriod did. You have to take into consideration the meir size of the Windows Mobile 6.5 OS is so much bigger than other OS's. So compiling all the code to work in a SD format is going to take time.But if anyonr can do it the DFT are the ones. I really wish there was something I could do to help those vuys out with this venture, but I am not versed enough with writting and compiling code yet to be of any real assistance.
Kudoes to the DFT and all thier hard work.
wm6.5 to sd card
hi,
this is exactly what i wish, i hav tried wp7 on hd2 android sd version, but what makes wm6.5 as my preferd os is
- wm6.5 is less dependant on cellular data connectivity
-ease of access to file system through file explorer and total commonder, though android has evolved from very little to a lot better explore but still u cant beat the wm6.5
- a lot of file and work can be accessed & edited if u wish to work offline
- wp7 & android have made user more dependant on online storage of documents & programs so i feel like being dependant on the online storage
- Most important point is that the progrem setup cabs can be saved on the device and it gives the ease and conveniance to install mod or work back to user coustomization without the need to connect to the desktop/laptop or data connection.
So all in all wm6.5 is still preferable as a choice as one of the os if there is dual boot(in my case wp7&wm6.5 dual boot)
all i can say is though i do like wp7 but until it gives evolves to the freedom & ease offer wm6.5 i think we feel the need of having wm6.5 sd port/rom.
if any developer will be working on porting wm6.5 to sd card i will be happy to contribute to him.
Please if any developer is already doing so then kindly point me to that place
My gut feeling is this won't happen :-(
saving setups
@pinkjpr: there's a solution for your last problem, though it's a bit complicated. Install your program via the marketplace. Then also need ASTRO file manager (probably other tools, maybe even free ones, will be suitable as well). Now go to tools-->SD-Backup Manager (or something like that, can't remember the name). Chose the program you want to backup, click the "save" button (or similarly named). Now you can use the search function to look up your newly created apk (distinguish between them via date of creation). Tap and hold +send via mail or connect your phone to the PC and copy the apk on your computer.
The first step (Backup Manager) isn't always necessary.

Anon1811:-
My friend, u r missing my point,. please correct me if i m wrong, but apk files are for android os, just like the cab files in wm6.x, and i am referring about wm6.x & wp7,
secondly most of the android applications are web based and advertizement sponcered so u need a working data connection to use most of them (i m not saying all of them). & that brings u back to working internet data, and if u are in a remote location where u dont have network then u hav only limited functionality& cant use most of apps, so the device is more like a flash light or a paper waight,
finally about customization, i am not saying backup restoration, i am saying a fresh installation with what ever apps u want to use again and leave the ones u dont wish to,
and lastly u are saying to connect to PC/Laptop, so again u must carry ur laptop with you so u back to the dependence on PC & data connectivity
i think u havent explored windows mobile for long so u are underestimating its potential compared to android
Hey Folks,as u read: I am totally new to android.
But here are some facts about me I'll tell you just to say sorry for dumbp questions right at the beginning.
I have a good base of Linux knowlege and i also always was modding my phones. If it was my Motorola Razr v3i or my Rhodium Windows 6.5.
Most important: I REALLY dont want others to make MY work. Dont missunderstand me: Some People just dont have the ability to make that on their own and i think, they needed to be helped too, but not me. I want to learn it and i CAN learn it.
But sorry if I post a question in the wrong Forum or ask questions wich have been answerted pretty often. My Problem ist not to read or speak english: It is to imagine the words I need to use for google and stuff to find my answeres. So, some hints, tips or links to Howtos or stuff woud help me alot.
Burt here the bunde of my most important questions:
It all started with Adobe Flash. I guess my Pad has a arm6 or 7 CPU... it has 600mhz and i found a version for that here on xda- i installed it and its working so far for the adobe flv player and swf files but not as an plugin 4 the reguar browser or dolphin hd. any suggestions?
I also wanted to download teamspeak 3. it seems, there i have the same problem. it tells me, my device is incomatible at the market. So is there a way to get it anywhere else and my to recompile it and patch it to work?
next: i tried to root my device using androot and also z4root. it goes through the process without errors and everything seems to be fine but sshdroid tells me, root is disabled. the access to some locations of the phone still is denied and so i cant install nandroid for backups and before i will go on, i REALLY shoud install an backup solution, right folks?
Well- for the first, thats it. if i know that i guess, the rest is more easy to find out on myself as it is right noe.
Again: You dont need to make my work. sorry and thanks at once && greetings from ?good? ol' germany. Alex
well- one thing i also coud need some help... i was searching arround how 2 set my phone for data2ext4 ... but if i wont get running my phone rooted, i can forget about that, cant I? my card already hav an 4GB ext4 partition beside a 12GB FAT partition
