POLL: Stable HD2 Android ROM in a month? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

how many of you think that there will be a stable and usable Android ROM on HD2 in a month ?
(I must decide between Desire and HD2 in a week,and want HD2 because of the 200$ lower cost but hate WinMo !)

So, your poll is to gauge the likelyhood of an Android->HD2 port to help your buying decision? Bro, if I wanted Android that bad I'd just buy an Android phone. Never get people that would even ponder buying a WinMo device then beg/stress for an Android port LOL
If it's any help in your decision - apparently HTC has run out of the AMOLED screens and will be packaging the Desire with an LCD screen.

I hear ya! I do like Android, I spend quite a bit of time playing with and flashing her rooted Desire. She often tells friends that I have 2 phones and she goes without lol.

It's nice my friend to play with 2 operating systems in one phone but my opinion is, don't by a phone that you don't like just because it's cheaper.
Android will run on HD2 but don't expect it to run flawlessly, like it would run on an android phone.
If you like android buy android.

There are people that think there's going to be a perfect android port in a month???
Seriously... look at all the other android ports for other winmo phones.... some have been developed for years, and are still nowhere near perfect. Most of them are hardly usable on a daily basis as your main os. Most have severe battery issues and can only last a few hours, almost none can use camera, some don't have sound, bluetooth, 3d, etc... I wuoldn't expect a port that you would want to use on a daily basis instead of winmo on the HD2 for at least a year.... and that would be some quick development.
Seriously people... if you are seriously interested in android ports... do some research. Read about the development of the other ports for winmo devices. They take a long time. You can't expect it to miraculously work perfectly in a few months. I really can't believe the poll results are almost even results right now.... it's ridiculous to think your gonna be using android on your HD2 like it was an android phone anytime soon.

mate you have to be kiding in one month
you have high expetations lol

Even if they got Android working with in the next month it would not be fully working. Try looking over the other builds for other phones that have been ported for the last year or so and you will find that they still have problems getting all the hardware to work.
If you want Android that bad then you best forget about the HD2 as an option.

Thanks for the replies , I will wait a little bit longer (for the cash! ) and may seriously consider Desire !

[Q] Should I buy HD2?

I am in a purchasing dilemma since my Diamond died. I have HD2, Samsung Galaxy S and HTC Desire in my list.
Let me try to write what I have in mind. Pardon me if I offended anyone but these are purely my opinion.
Looks: HD2 has the sleekest design, Samsung Galaxy S isn't bad either but I don't like the curved corners in HTC Desire.
Winner: HD2
Screen: SGS has 4" S-AMOLED. HD2 doesn't but has got 4.3" gorgeous display. HTC Desire is somewhat in the middle, offering 3.7" SLCD.
Winner: SGS. Runnerup: HD2
Camera flash: SGS doesn't have a flash. I assume HD2 has a better dual LED flash than Desire.
Winner: HD2
OS: This part is what I hate and largely contributes to my dilemma. SGS and HTC Desire runs on Android natively, which I think these devices have a long time to be developed before they become obsolete. HTC Desire may have a leading edge compared to SGS because HTC devices have a great amount of developers working on it. HD2 is capable of running Android but its fundamental operating system is WM 6.5, which soon may become obsolete.
Winner: HTC Desire
Graphic performance: SGS has a better GPU than HTC Desire and HD2. I also wonder if the poorly implemented GPU driver in HD2 would hinder progress in future Android builds such as Gingerbread.
Winner: SGS
Price: SGS>Desire>HD2 in my country. HD2 wins.
Guys, help me decide. I could have waited for WP7 devices IF my Diamond did not unexpectedly give up, but I don't have a choice but to grab a phone now. Which device should I go for? Or could I have overlooked any potential models?
nice review but which uses u do with ur phone that what important
I use my phone for browsing, instant messaging and GPS. I prefer phones which I can modify its software to fit my needs, for example, ROM cooking. I am leaning towards Android, I have been using WM for too long and I'm a little bored with it.
....ive been a user of HD2 for the past year nd honestly.....i couldnt stand the msgng client in it! it just is plain frustrating........also from the momnet u buy the hd2 u cant but start installing stuff to change the whole phone experience!........same thng with my previous diamond 2!
i bought a SGS nd so far have been very impressed.....no lags.......no restarts........however i miss wm apps.......you have open source apps for wm which span all categories nd most are free or cracked.......android is still new but has potential if you bear the wait.......for ex you can't find a decent battery/clock/weather widget for your homescreen!!!! ..........already am looking forward for windows phone...........but i guess android it is for now.
As for SGS vs Desire, well to tell u the truth, i became very doubtful abt HTC support services...........they never target the right issues! they're just too lame......
If you happen to have any spare phone (smart or not) lying around then I'd suggest you use that phone until WP7 phones come out. They are coming really soon and you should give them a chance to be considered. You might regret if you buy a phone now and a month later a WP7 phone comes out with features that you really really like.
Well, Just my opinion - that's what I'd do anyway if I was in your situation. In any case, good luck with your decision

Simple answer. NO!
The phone is quite old now and you will receive no support at all from HTC.
I think this is too important to ignore ...

I am using HD2 and i'm very happy with it. If you wanna go HD2, be alarmed that the stock ROM from HTC won't be a satisfactory user experience. I would advise you to look for a custom ROM, that fulfills your user needs (battery power absorbtion, eye candy, crashing,...)
After that you get almost unlimited customisation ability. On the other side, HD2 won't gen any major official customer support, so if you are o.k. with that, there's no other trendemous downside.
One other thing...
if you are a regular customer, who prefers simplicity and no customization (iPhone), this is probably not suited for you
Sent from my HD2
downside if you get the hd2 is that, i doubt htc will release any further official updates for it however look how much this forum has to offer in regards with cooked roms,android port or eventually wm7 port(hopefully) but its fundamental o/s is pretty dire without the enhancements ie battery life and frezzing up ..your stated you been using windows o/s so in a way you know what to expect from a windows phone i havnt tried the desire but reviews are pretty sound..played with the sgs very briefly thought android alot smoother, i love the voice recognition aspect of it eg on goggle if you speak to it, it will fill in the google search field for you, i was impressed! personally i would hold on until the rumoured hd3 or hd7 comes out this year
I think you should buy a cheap replacement at for now. Since WP7 I think will be released soon(I hope), you can wait for it. Anyway in case you won't like WP7, you can still get the HD2(over SGS and Desire) and I think it will be lot cheaper but great overall.
I bought HD2 some time before Desire release.. I also was stuck a long time don't know if to wait or buy.. Then I sold it while Galaxy S hit the store cause I got good money for it.. Then I had the chance, Galaxy S or HD2 again.. I bought HD2 again and didn't regret it..
If I look at the price and the possibilities the HD2 is the winner for me.. Also the quality and display is really good.. Android for me is ready for daily use (Bangster 1.2A Build), no need for NAND atm love the possibility switch between WinMo and Android.. WP7 is coming for shure and Ubuntu also =) But if you don't want to change OS then buy Android phone, I came from Palm to Windows Mobile years ago but I never got an experience like Android, best usability you can get in my opinion..
Only advantage I see with Samsung is the better GPU, but in Quadrant benchmark I get a much higher CPU score, so don't know which is better.. NFS Shift runs smooth though =)
I have to agree with the last 2 posts, came from a Mytouch andriod phone to the HD2. If it wasn't for the fact that I can sync up my calander and contacts from my outlook, this phone would be have been sold 1 day after I bought it. 3 apps on the crappy windows market also make the phone ok. Being able to put different roms helps, but it really only changes screens around, it still runs on crappy windows
But if I had my choice I would have stayed with my Mytouch and spent $275 on a newer andriod phone then this POS.
Great replies. I've decided to go for Samsung Galaxy S. Cheers~

[Q] is it still worth buying a HTC HD2 or shall i go for a Nexus One / S?

Hello people!
I definately need a phone, cause the Galaxy Tab is way too big for everyday mobile use! I'm very into android, cause i created some roms and mods and i heard that the HD2 is capable of running android directly in the NAND so this is pretty cool!
Technically the HD2 and the Nexus One are the same, but the HD2 is slightly cheaper in my area (350€ vs. 380€), so for what phone should i go? the Nexus S would be an option too but its overpriced ATM and isnt much faster than the Nexus One!
Is the HD2 Community dying out or is it still as active as in the time after release?
Is the Nexus the better choose, because of better support from google and the massive modding community?
Or is the Nexus S the best choose, cause its the newest one with a rapidly growing community?
The hd2 society is certainly live and kickin..- other threads to see for yourself.. I would go for hd2 as it gives u diversity of uses and choices... wm, android.. and ... its hd2 for gods sake
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
go for Nexus
You wouldnt like windows
Windows?... what windows?
Go for HD2,because it's capable of running android and boot android directly from Nand.another special option is you will be able to play with WP7.
Personally after having a play with a friends Galaxy S I would go for that, the screen is beautiful, unless the nexus also has AMOLED?, there are also plenty of cooked ROMS on here for the Galaxy S. Alternatively there are supposed to be some tegra 2 handsets coming along in q1, might be worth waiting a while.
I think if you already have a HD2, it's worthwhile to keep it as it offers a lot of possibilities but if you are buying new, I would suggest buying newer phones..
WM 6.5 OS is dead.

What has WM 6.4 got to do with the price of fish?
The HD2 can run Android by itself now, WM is out of the picture.
Put it this way, If my HD2 suddenly died I would still go out and but another over any current Android phone, simply because I love the design and also because of its versatility and specs.
I have choice of multiple OS's (which list is growing) so I can pick and choose whenever I see fit.

I would have agreed last week but I was shown the Galaxy S this weekend, Android looks **** hot with the AMOLED, i'm sold, Phone is fast and has TV out as well, some versions will eventually get HDMI output.. sold yet?
Buy the HD2, wait half an year and buy a new dual core phone with Hardware video chip.
HD2 is versatile, I like it and it got like a new phone after Android, but stil i think at the middle of next year we will be buying a new toy.
I'm fine with HD2 being versatile and all, I owned a HD2 myself.
Buying the HD2 now is kinda late for the party, you know what I mean.
And you never know when the developement and tinkering for HD2 stops or the next super star device comes along.
In fact, when the Nexus One came along, I would thought it will become a developer's device that offer much more possibilities. But i digress..
Go for hd2 again..

If you like modding, tweaking and running a whole bunch of OSes on one phone, get HD2.
But if you're that kind of user which want a phone to run great out of a box, get Nexus S.
Nexus One is almost identical compared to HD2 in terms of CPU, RAM. HD2 has bigger screen, no 720p recording and few other differences, but IMO 4,3", beautiful screen is more than enought to choose HD2 . Ah, and you have to have at least basic knowledge about tweaking phones to run Android from NAND (or simply put few folders on SD card and run Android from SD card).

What he said.
I love modding&tweaking business and HD2 is just great (kinda designed for it) for that purpose. Half a year of new builds and I'm not tired.
But now I'm in deep need for stable OS just for phone calls, and I'm considering same thing or switching to WM6.5 (God please save me from this evil thing) for good.
@Erq001
Szukasz stabilnego OSa? Nie kupuje WM.
Z drugiej strony HD2 jest całkiem porządnie zrobiony i jakoś wygląda.
However, if you'd ask the same question in the Nexus One forum, everybody would advice you to buy Google's phone

[Q] What next after Hero??

So... It looks as though Hero development may end with Gingerbread (2.3). Honeycomb (3.0) looks very tablet orientated and some devs are already stating it may be hard to port it.
My question is, after the resilient little Hero, what would be the next best handset to move to? A lot of people have mentioned the Desire HD or the Desire Z, but I'd like to hear from you guys, what do you think?
Update: I prefer a HTC handset myself, but which would be a good one to move to for the next set of decent ROMs??
I also believe, that after getting fully operational 2.3 with 2.6.35 kernel it will be pretty much it
Contracts are ending (I have one more year to go), developers are moving to other projects.
I hope that we will have one day "[GPL][2.3][2.6.35]Final Rom for hero".
After hero? Well, perhaps some crazy samsung device (although their quality isn't as good as HTC). I'm sure I'll stick with android, one of the best choices ever made
cheers!
I'll keep my Hero until a Tegra 2 device is realeased
I'm going to hang on to my hero for as long as possible... But I'm starting to think the Nexus S might be the next decent handset to move to, no-ones started developing ROMs yet though... Although I did notice Cyanogen had created a thread in his forum for it
I think 2.3 is maximum for Hero. Honeycomb is likely their requirements opportunities Hero.

I have to admit, this looks like the root (sorry!) I'm most likely to take.
The Nexus S seems to be a decent choice
But after putting froyo on my hero for the first time and seeing how fast it became, I think I can wait for the next reference phone
Hopefully, the next one will have a full RGB AMOLED instead of the Pentile PoS on the current Nexus S
On my next phone I'm looking for:
Tegra 2 or similar, perhaps dual core hummingbird with dedicated gpu
300+ dpi RGB AMOLED screen
Proper capacitative multitouch
Hard buttons
NO FINGERPRINT MAGNET, minimal gloss&plastic, good materials
In any case, would Honeycomb be for tablets? I assumed that honeycomb won't come to phones

yep, same hear, dual core is the way forward.
I plan to run the hero, cancel my TMO contract and get a giffgaff PAYG sim until a decent Tegra2 (preferrably HTC!) comes to the market.
not sure if i'd go back on contract or stick with giffgaff...i'll see how they perform, then buy the handset sim free (ouch?!?)

personally, i think there will be a version of Honeycomb for phones, when the dual core handsets become more readily available. maybe a 'cut down' version.
i have Hero for like 8 months now. Pretty good phone, but still a little bit slow, only compared to other smartphones (but as a phone, it is great).
But yesterday i bought SGS.
for my girlfriend. i hate world
Sorry, what's an SGS?

it depends on your needs i think. if you're flashjunky like me our hero will end soon i think because the processors won't be enough soon.
and also be careful about screen, only desire (not z nor hd) has amoled screen. so for better screen sharpness, you may get desire for now. and also it gets great scores

It's looking like a HTC Desire at the moment. I was told to avoid the Desire and go for a Desire HD or Desire Z. Not sure why though, the Desire is the only one of the three with an AMOLED display...
I've had the Hero for just over a year now, and honestly, jailbreaking it has given it a new lease of life. That said though, it's definitely not gonna get 3.0 by the looks of things, and I'd rather not get left behind in terms of software updates. I will likely get an HTC or a Samsung; both companies make good hardware that's pretty powerful. I have considered buying a Nexus S outright, but it's kinda beyond my budget right now...

Completely agree with you. I bought a Hero when my iPhone went t*ts up.
But my concern was that the newer versions of Android are going to require faster hardware and there will come a point where the Hero just won't be able to cut it anymore. So what's the next best handset to go up to? At the moment a HTC Desire
Well, it's looking like either Nexus S, or Desire for me =P

[Q] What will be your next Android phone?

It's not a secret that the Optimus One is getting long in the tooth and several hacks and workarounds are undertaken just to make it as usable as most new phones in the market. That said, what is your planned upgrade path?
If I get enough money, I like the HTC Evo 3D.
Though I think of switching to desire z or defy or galaxy s or dell steak(bigger screen fascinates me) , I have second thoughts again and again.
I feel we already have gingerbread, good 3d, good internal memory via 1gb ext partitions, 512 mb ram. Sound is great now with gb too.
So what will we get after upgrading. I believe a bigger screen, flash support, dlna, 720p video recording. But then I think how frequently will I use them. After thinking this I just become satisfied with my present o1.

QWERTY droids are starting to look good to me. I'm getting pretty tired of touchscreen typing so if I will stick with Android (for now I'm not really sure I want Android anymore) it will be either a QWERTY one or a 4-4.3" one for precise typing (thin chances because I'm tired of poor battery life).
All i can say is it will not be any LG, just coz they made us w8 for Android 2.3.

Please, consider that this is a low end phone and that there are 5+ different versions of this phone. Many high end phones don't even have 2.3 officially announced. We have an estimated time with videos of the official gingerbread. No reason to hate LG. I would much rather have a finished bug free update then bug full one. It's annoying that people are putting LG/this phone down because of the 2.3 update. This phone is zippy for what it has and LG has done a great job.
This phone pretty much satisfies my needs, I'll probably buy another in a year or so, so whatever looks good then I'll buy it
I am very pleased with my Optimus. I like the Nexus S but can't justify the cost. If I were to break my Optimus T I'd buy another one now that it's $50 cheaper than when I bought mine back in November ;(.

I'm not planning buying a new phone anytime soon. I'll propably keep my O1 at least until xmass.
It was my first android (ex symbian fanboy) and I didn't want to spend much money in case i didn't like it (but I fell in love with it) but my next android will definetly be a high-end phone.
Dual core, wvga, hdmi capabilities etc. If I was to buy a new phone now I'd choose optimus x2. A friend of mine got it few days ago and I like it very much

The O1 really is a potent Android gateway drug. Knowing the power of this OS, I wouldn't settle on less than high-end for my next Android phone.
I like my O1 Thankfully it was a right choice, It does everything i want too, And now that its overclocked its performing without any lags, Add to that Gingerbread.... its Got Juice for another year or so...
My next Phone will not be android, I'll keep my O1 as my secondary phone and Get that Awsome Nokia N9 with meego they are going to release this year

[Q] What phone will you buy next?...

Hy guys
1.What's the next phone that you want to buy?
2.Thinking about a nokia with WP7 or an iPhone ???
Please motivate your posts...i just want to see what you guys think around here
Haha, you made a new thread, I saw your post in that other thread
On-topic: 1:What I know is that next spring/ summer I will probably buy *something*. Either a tab or a phone, it depends on how cheap the tabs have gotten. It will either have dual-core or quad-core, we'll see if phones really need more in the future, it all depends on the software development. I don't know if HTC or Samsung and I don't even know if I'm buying Android. It will of course be something Linux, but there are some other nice projects like WebOS and MeeGo as well out there I'm not that found of HTC Sense and I prefer Go Launcher, but as I'm very fond of my HTC phone and Samsung is a bit plastic... Last, if I buy a phone, I want it to have a 3.7 or 4 inch screen. I think 4.3 is too big, but I still want that awesome hardware of the 4.3 phones
2: iPhone: NO WAY!!! Many iPhone guys say that Android is for those who cannot afford iPhone, I say iPhone is for those who are too stupid for Android
Nokia: ... Probably not, as they're going for Windows which is not as open as these other awesome OS
thanks for the post...as i wrote, i just want to see how hero users will go with the next generation of phones or tablets...seems that i'm not the only one that thinks about a tablet instead a phone...

Nice phone...it's big and fast I think of a sensation, because it has a nice offer on vodafone [140 euros] and it's worth a shot..but in the same time...i think on a tablet...an eeepad with tegra 3
Thanks for the answer
The HTC Holiday, when it comes out of course

Nice phone:d. Seems that will be a big competition when google will release the new nexus and lots of other phones :-"...since they have motorola now
Thanks for the answer, Stefan
Although I absolutely love my hero, I feel, that in the not too distant future (in a months time), I will be getting a new handset, It will be a Android handset, as I love the way it can be customised etc lol, well, I would like to get a SGS2/Sensation, but thats out of my price range....So it will probably be a Desire or a Sony Ericsson handset, Possibly a motorola defy

The desire is OK, even the motorola defy is OK, not into Sony Ericsson to much but like their phones... Did you ever think about a tablet? I mean in buying one

Motorola will soon release and upgraded version og the Defy with 1ghz prosessor, so wait for that because: 1: The original Defy will be way cheaper 2: the upgraded one will be worth about as much as the old one

Seems that the next phone from htc, the Vigor is quite a super machine...specs include a 1.5 GHz processor and a HD display...but i think it will cost a lot...Wonder what the next iphone will have on board
As for the defy it will be @ 1GHz single core but will be cheap i think.
After reading about the new Sense 3.5 running on the 800 MHz bliss wonder if the hero can run it also...

Well we can always take a look at a leak if we get one
Sent from my Hero using XDA Premium App
Still love my hero : ) Do want to upgrade though too. Not sure about a much bigger phone though, galaxy looks huge and I like it in my pocket : ) no room for much more ; ) . Probably stick with htc so desire s on contract I can afford, that would feel like an upgrade as I'm still impressed by hero

Haha, its pretty big xD I still gotta wait for 2 more years for my contract to finish
I still have my Hero
Moved on to HTC HD7 - windows phone loved it but NODO didnt help me much
Updated to MANGO recently and really love what Mircosoft is doing so will definately be going for a NOKIA WP7 next Year
Currently enjoying my SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 - Android Phone and love they way I can flash all the latest firmwares without the need to root
So for you I would suggest Either wait for Nokia to come out with windows phone (SEARAY is their first phone to come out )
or
Wait of NEXUS PRIME / MIUI PHONE / or IPHONE 5 which ever takes your fancy
I'm going for the HTC HD2.
Advantage? I can have whatever I want. WP7, Android, WM (even Ubuntu).
It still has good hardware for the time being, and I simply love the design.
