I have a unlocked HTC Tilt 2 and I was wondering if I can put the Android OS on it? How can I do that? Also, is there a way to use it with a Boost Sim card?
Currently it has Windows 6.5, but I'd rather have Android...I got it on the AT&T website, but have recently unlocked it...if I can't get it to work with a Boost Sim, what is the best service to use? I know I'm asking a LOT of questions in this thread...but I'd like to be able to use this phone...can anyone help me out? I would GREATLY appreciate it!

Hey guys, just joined your community and the pocket pc community all together.
I just ordered my HTC Nike (Touch Dual) from bell, and upgraded to unlimited data. I am told by others I work with, that romming is 100% necessary to get the most out of your phone.
I am just curious, is there a rom out there that is more heavily used than others? I see quite a few threads for different roms, and I honestly have no idea which one to go with.
To be safe I perfer to go with the flow, and do what everyone else is doing =p So if there is a rom that is considered most popular or has become the standard, can someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
anyone?
I need a stable rom that will unlock the ENTIRE functionality of the device, I have not yet received it, its coming in the mail so im not sure the exact device version.
Its from Bell Canada (I live in canada), and it has WM 6.1 Pro
bump (please someone help me out with advice)
Im from canada so im not sure if it will be a neon or a niki. Bell is my service provider.
What I need most is all the features and applications locked out by bell to be unlocked and the ability to teather with bluetooth to my laptop for high speed.
I'll also be configuring it for ms exchange (Work related).
I have no idea how this rom stuff works or why there are so many or how to choose. All I want is someone point me at a good one for the above needs.
Thanks.
ok i got the Touch Dual version, its a Neon400, perhaps that will help with giving advice.
Thanks in advance!
use new 6.1 rom

awsome, do i need to unlock the phone for this?
and if so, do i just follow the stickied hardspl thread?
I don't care what the ROM looks like as I'm going to get the PROBEX Windows 7 theme on it anyways, but I want the best performing rom that is released and I honestly have no idea about proper testing methods to go thru each and every one to find the one with best performance, and I imagine someone has already done this and would be able to come in here and tell me
Thanks guys.
If you have sprint you are in the wrong forum. Read links below.
? I thought the rom mattered on which type of phone you were using. and the HTC Touch Pro = Raphael?
I guess I needed to put this in the CDMA sub forum? Mod pls move this thread there for me then. Thanks.
Hello XDA!! Noob has questions an Htc Hero CDMA from Sprint.
1)I'm going to flash to Metro PCS and I want internet to work. Any ideas??
( I know metro's net is garbage so let's skip that).
2) Where's the best sticky to rooting of my specific phone?
3) Which one first.... Flash to Metro first, or Root the Hero first, or does it matter....?
Your thoughts are appreciated and I hope my post is in the right Place! . Will give thanks the right way.(no one rides for free!!)
Hero
Noob
What ever came of get all features to work on Metro with you Hero?
????
Perhaps if you'd asked in the CDMA subforum you'd have got more of a response!
This is a very CDMA specific question, so you would be far better off posting there.

Dave
Hey Guys,
I recently got a HTC HD2 as a gift from a friend. I am loving this phone - such a huge screen (I used iPhone 4 recently and it seemed so small then), amazing touch sense and overall experience.
I have been browsing the XDA forums for quite some time. I have few issues/queries that I want to get cleared up:
1. My HTC is locked to T-mobile, USA and I am in Canada. I have been unsuccessful in getting it unlocked. I contacted couple of shops who claimed to unlock it through the code but cudn't get the code. Anybody has any idea why is it hard to get HTC HD2 unlock code? I read somewhere that my IMEI number belongs to the new T-mobile series. Cud that be a problem? What do you guys suggest on getting my phone unlocked? One of the shops told me that they might have to flash the ROM but I don't know what that means....which brings to us to my next question...
2. What does "Flashing the ROM" means? It is about rewiring the ROM? I heard there are custom ROMs. What are custom ROMs? I need to figure out this ROM stuff. I know what is a ROM....I just want to know how this thing and different jargons work wrt Mobile phones.
3. Is there is any benefit of running Andriod (Froyo) on my mobile? I would love to have Andriod since WinMo has forced me to reset the phone more than I have resetted my previous smartphones per year. But, I think Andriod is still in development mode. What are your views on this issue?
I am going to browse the forums more and try to be active here. I hope these queries are a good point to start here.
Thanks in advance.

LMAO! commical how uninformed supposed phone technicians are, , ,no, flashing will have no effect at all on sim lock.
but I don't know what that means....which brings to us to my next question...

think of the windows cd rom, , you put it into a blank computer, and it installs itself, , well a rom is kinda like that. A big file that, when you hard reset (or immediately after a flash) installs itself, complete with all included software, onto your phone. If you flash a new rom, its like using a different windows cd. 'chefs' can 'cook' roms, , get rid of operator added rubbish, add tweaks and programs, etc etc.

read, then read more, then read again. Read the stuff youdont understand too, be a knowledge sponge, soak it alllll up. Everything (and i do mean everything) that you want to ask has alerady been asked, and usually answered, if you trawl through enough threads.
Well,this thread is in here for All the members of the development wing for the hTC SURROUND.
Any queries,suggestions,requests,grievances and appreciations can be posted over here.
This is the ONLY thread where i wont impose any type of Moderation unless and otherwise in specific cases of Flamming,Religious discussions,Abuses ETC...
Looking forward to a greater Mod-User relationship.
Have a nice day!
Good O.S but need more from microsoft.
Today I have my HTC Surround. The new windows mobile have good interface. But need more development from Microsoft. I think in the feature will see better integration. The settings menu need more options (jaja). I think I was use to use Windows Mobile 6.5. Anybody know how to block a phone call? Example. a number or contact?. I think the O.S. don't have the utility. I search for hours in the market place but not found anything.
Off to a decent start...Well,we need new developers here...Cheerz guyz.....
We need to put Android on this, just like the HD2, it has the capabilities.

Does anyone know anything if the InternetSharing (teathering) is going to be made avalible in an update? Or, is anyone going to hack a way to do it? I waited a year-plus for this being a strong user of WM and it's like MS took a step backwards with this new OS. I'd appreciate any info anyone has to share. Thanks.
I had to buy A Samsung Focus after purchasing the Surround to get the tethering to work.
