I have an Htc Hero with 1.5 Android and i woulid like to know if the Htc will give us the update to 2.0.
Some roms in this site work stable or beta? I use Android for first time and i dont know how to use it.
I mean that in Windows Mobile some 6.5 roms are beta because Htc dont have update the official rom for example in Htc Tytn 2.
Is it good for me to flash a 2.0 rom from this site or i will have problems?
just check the first post of the respective rom thread to see what is not working (usually camera, bluetooth etc.). if that is a problem or not is your decision

Hello

I already have CHT 1.8.5 & BsB on my device.

Yes, there is newer official ROM, you can find it directly on HTC site.
Or you can try any custom ROM - there are lots of them, you just need to try (or do some reading first which one suits you best (they differ from very clean to "fully loaded" with tons of software, also some have "stock" look, some are fully customized).
Don't forget in case you choose to try custom ROM - first you need to update your SPL to some version of HSPL (exact version is not important, you may flash latest 2.08.HSPL directly), then you need to flash Radio (look which versions are recommended by the chief of the ROM you choose to update) and only then flash ROM itself.
Hi everyone. I am a complete idiot when it comes to phones so I thought I was doing well when I shelled out some cabbage for the HTC HD2 only to find that the WinOs SUX! Thats how I found this site. I am wondering if anyone can provide step by step video / detailed instructions on the best driod os for a tmobile usa htc hd2 with updated rom. My knowledge stops at turning the phone on so all the talk about radio and rom changes etc is foreign. I am stuck with this phone now and need some help. Again, sorry for being an idiot and I thank you for any guidance you can give.
By updated ROM I mean that I have the updated rom supplied by tmobile....2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE...radio 2.10.50.26.....OS version....5.2.21892 (21892.5.0.89)
welcome to the forum; everything you need to know is DEF here......now with that said I have to be the first to say that nobody is going to be inclined to help you until you read up and educate yourself first a little bit. people go through the trouble of writing tutorial and making stickies for the soul purpose of informing people (such as yourself) with limited/minimal knowledge. do yourself a favor and take a little bit to familiarize yourself with your phone and read as much as you can and I'm sure that whatever questions you might have about getting started will be found. as far as which android os is better, well that's subjective. your best bet is to flash and try any and all and form your own opinion. good luck and welcome again.

just to help you get started...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6y0YK1IqjB0
and as the above stated...do some reading first before starting threads. Most often than not...people have been in your shoes before..all you gotta do is search. And Welcome, and good luck with your phone endeavors!
Use either darkstone sence or hdfroyo from darkstone by far best android builds. I got the crazy robot voice during calls with 2.13 tmo us rom. I would use one of the custom roms people on here sugest. Or do what i did and install the previois tmo us 2.10 rom. All can be found on this site. Look around there are plenty of guides and search on youtube there are videos on there also. Just a note android is much better than win mo but the builds are about 95%. They all still have some small issues, bluetooth not working, compass os wacky ect. But very useable as an everyday os. Goes on sdcard so your NOT replaceing win mo. If you restart the phone youll be back in win mo and have to start android again but its a simple prosess and there are android launcher apps on this site that will give u a win mo icon to launch android in one click. Pretty slick. Just do some reading you be ok.
Sent from my HTC HD Droid 2 using XDA App
1. Go to HD2 ROM Forum
2. Install HSPL3 (Hard SPL)
3. Install New Radio (Not required - but please pay attention - reading required!)
4. Install New ROM - I recommend ChuckyROM, VB, or Energy (need WWE)
5. Select Android Build and download
6. Don't expect Miracles
7. ???
8. Profit!!
Also....
You can't just simply "upgrade" the WM rom. You still need it to run the android rom, just like the fellows above said, read up on it and you will get going soon.

Can anyone point me to a good stable basic (Vanilla??) win Mo 6.0 or 6.1 ROM for my trusty HTC universal (well its a T Mobile MDA PRO, but thats the same thing), I seem to inly find dead links these days
Thanks
hey i saw the htc hero playing flash on adobes website now i want to know why it dosent support my p500 coz the hero is slower as our phone.
is there no way we can create our own flash plugin , like the guys have done for the iphone ?
From Wikipedia: "Notably, it (HTC Hero) is the first phone of that series to feature a 3.5 mm audio jack, multi-touch capability, the HTC Sense user interface, and a "Lite" version of Adobe Flash."
There is flash lite for Optimus One too, not official trough (Look here). Developers reported flash support in CyanogenMod 7 for P500 (Alpha), but don't flash CyanogenMod 7 to your phone as it is only for development and beta testing purposes for now.
thx for the quick answer , but i read i think 2 H ago that adobe did make a 10.1 Update for the hero i really hope in someway we can get it to run on our phones too.
I am wondering if I should just put it back to stock with the RUU or start from where it is. I was told it is a NAND install of 4.1.2 (CM). I want to be able to dual boot Windows Phone 7 and 6.5. What should I do with it? I got this phone purely to play with it. I have several android devices already so having android on it isn't that appealing.
I would stick WM6.5.5 custom rom on it from NRG along with radio flash to be safe.
Loads of still active links in HD2 wiki for WM roms/radios/flash tools etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_HD2#ROMs
Once flashed with WM6.5.5 I would test functions for while & be sure no hardware glitches before further playing.
WM6.5.5 is pretty good platform if you got experience with it & know where find software (plenty about if look), I still use it as a daily as so simple yet capable.
WP7 was a bit poor but a good way test/use platform back in day.
