Damn, It is realy fast. I supose everybody is pulling it down. I get 235 kbs while from htc is only about 8.
Got it (from XDA of course).
Can we install it from Vista?
On HTC club it is said that we can install it from Vista without any special premisions. Should I try?

Sorry for all this questions, but you are the first with new WM6 on board, i guess.
Could you tell, if you chard your battery full before uploading new ROM or didn't bother? HTC says that the battery shoild be t lest 50% full.
If you did not charged it full, then did new rom picked up he battery level properly? In Universal and WM6 ROMs there was a problem with it.

You should always flash and device with at least 50 % just in case you got a bad flash and ur device will need to be on until you can fix it

Yes I know, but in Universal and some of WM6 roms, if uploaded a new rom with your battery, say, 70% charged, than, the new rom treated that as 100% and your battery was showing faster degradation. There was something wrong with it there. There was an advice to upload a new rom only with battery fully charged, because of that.
I wonder if here we are free of that problem.

You mean CID Unlocked? Well, it is not. I use the first WM6 rom shown here. It was aimed for X7500 Advantage, and it was said it did not need CID Unlock. It works pretty good.
Now, this rom is from HTC, and again for my device, isn't it? It is for Advantage x7500 WWE European version, taken from Midgets link, so I hope it should work.
I've downloaded italian version after 5 hours...but file was corrupted. Can someone who still have it upload Advantage_HTC_ITA_2.21.408.1_1.50.00.00_Ship.exe on rapidshare?

This question has been asked for a million times i guess. But the search option on this forum is killing me, i never get to the thread i want to
So this is the story, i have my (Dutch) HTC HD2, standard ROM, Standard 2.5 sense.
Only things i changed are the icons, CHT and other basic stuff...
Now, i want to try Android on my phone, is that possible without ROM Updating my system (That will affect my Windows Mobile Install)
And how do i get the whole android thing installed on my phone?
Well, hope someone can help a dork and nutnut like me

in short the answer would be no.
There are many factors that enable android to run on an hd2,mostly rom & radios for which you'd need to hspl3 your phone. By upgrading your rom you wouldn't be loosing your windows mobile-if anything gaining more from a phone that is somewhat redundant without tweaking or upgrading. After all once you've got a custom rom you'll love it all the more & now with an android port the best of both world's. The best thing I did to my phone after having. It a couple of weeks was flashing over a radio & rom. Take the plunge & you'll see the vastness that this phone has
Last I checked ROM has nothing to do with it. Radio yes, depending on the radio version you have it might need to be changed. Android runs from the SD card and shuts down windows when it starts so what would the ROM have to do with anything.

A lot of it is rom depending as I've only seem a handful of people who have it working on stock. To the op try it & report findings on here to give others the benefit
best bet would be to follow the installation guides.
I was in the same dilemma... Afraid to harm my precious HD2... I started with adding android to SD using the stock tmous rom and it was great until I had to make a call or received a call then it was all bad... I dealt with that for a month until I took the plunge and downloaded chuckys rom... totally worth it... most bugs fixed... sod here and there, but overall it's worth it!!!

HI!
As the title says, I wondered if it is is possible to flash an android build onto my hd2, instead of windows mobile 6.5?
right now, I am booting up in wm, and then opening android, running it from the sd-card, but since I never use wm, I thougt I might just get rid of it
is it possible? android does not run as smooth as I want it to from the sd-card, unfortunately.

Has anyone here tested the Android boot from nand? How is the battery life? When i boot android from WM it's less than a day of life, and that's with everything turned off. Didn't know if booting direct to android saved battery life.
a better rookie question is: how do i search?

There are devs actively working on it and it will be released in the next week or so. It will require installing a new bootloader called MAGLDR. I wouldnt recommend asking about it here in the forums as it's still a touchy subject. Search & Read (search for magldr) there's a LOT of info about it here on the forums. Happy modding!
thanks everybody
Be careful discussing MAGLDR though my friend. It's guaranteed to turn XDA members into epic idiots.
HTC have just posted a new ROM v 3.14.421.2 on their website.
The version number is way higher than the 1.66.42.1 mine is currently running.
Anyone tried it out yet?
Just kidding buddy, but do you really think that anybody still uses winmob 6.5 in the great time of windows phone 7 or Android in any version you desire?

As your signature says: "Desire HD2-7". That combines everything, doesn´t it?
WinMo 6.5 *does* indeed still offer some advantages and software you cannot find on other platforms... but I think the interest for an HTC stock ROM is... close to zero.

I still use Winmo while using Garmin XT. So, any suggestion for replacement of Garmin XT in WP7 or android?
I am using 3.14.405.2 and its works a lot better than 1.66. I had to upgrade as 1.66 would jam when I received multiple SMS at the same time. I tried 1.72.841.0 but did not like the propriety settings and locks that Telstra (AUS) use.
I also tried Duttys V(14) but it was buggy with Wifi and Youtube, so have gone to 3.14.405.2 and it all works fine.
Now, I am waiting for Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 as I have custom apps that Windows Phone 7 or Android cannot run.
cheers

So guys I'm wondering, is there a way I can find out what radio I'm using while I'm using Android from NAND? I want to try WinMo with a NRG ROM but I'm not too sure what radio I have and I don't want to brick my phone. OR should I have a radio compatible because I'm already using MAGLDR and HSPL etc? Thanks.

Hi there Skellyyy.
To find out what Radio you have while you are running Andriod go to Settings and scroll down to Band frequency. It should have a number that looks like this "15.42.50.11U 2.15.50.14". Your numbers may not be the same as mine but the format will be the same. The 15.42.50.11U is my Protocol version, and the 2.15.50.14 is my Radio version. Now if you need a different Radio version with the ROM you want to flash then go to this thread. It is a very good place to learn about Radios and what they do, plus you can probably download the radio you need or want there. It has like all the radios there just about.
I see you are from Dublin, Ireland so maybe someone here on XDA can tell you what radio is reported as working best in this area if you do not have to have a spacific radio version for tbe ROM you want to flash.
I give credit to senior member samsamuel from who I learned this from but once you see a list of radios together it is kind of apparent. But if the radio has a 51 in it then it is a regular HD2 radio, but if it has a 50 in it then it is a TMOUSA radio. Example 2.xx.51.xx is a regular HD2 radio and 2.xx.50.xx is a TMOUSA radio.
Hope this helps you out.
Thanks for the reply and found it out on my own but thanks anyway. Yeah, I think you may be wrong about the radio .50 and .51 thong though. I have a 2.15.50.14 radio and I'm on a EU Leo. This'll work on WinMo ROM's will it?
May sound crazy, but I bought my HD2 like two months ago with Android already on NAND so I never used WinMo before and I'm just curious to see what its like on the HD2. What it should be like nativly.

The tmous radios will work on a EU leo, however the EU radios will kill a tmous phone....
If you have an EU handset then you need to flash a .50. radio to enable the extra memory trick required for flashing most custom roms. iirc.......
I use an energy rom and would highly reccomend them, however if your used to android and not WM6.5 then you may not be too impressed.
Go for a rom with CHT2.0 cooked in as this is must have, in my opinion for anybody using WM6.5.........

Thanks. What's CHT 2.0? I'm merely just going to try WinMo for maybe a day and see what all the complaints are about. Is the memory trick like using the Ext3 partition on an SD card for data or something?
So I should be fine flashing a WinMo ROM on my radio?
I was planning on trying an NRG ROM, one that was close to stock but with some improvements and tweaks and what-not. What other ROM's do you recommend?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Ive only ever used energy roms as Im not really a flash addict. I prefer to stick with one and tweak the hell out of it
CHT2.0 = Cookies Home Tab 2.0
Its an add-on for the HTC sense UI, its basically the way HTC should have made the sense interface. It allows you much more flexibility in how you can customise the home screens.
You can find it here.....
There are energy roms with it already cooked in, thats probably the one I would recommend.
Other popular roms are Dutty's Roms and Artemis Roms.
You'll find these in the 6.5 Rom development section, they're too close to stock for me though.
The thing about 6.5 is that it needs time and patience to get it set up how you want, once you acheive that no other OS compares as far as Im concerned.
re the radio memory trick;
Im not sure how it compares to the android partition thing as Im really not clued up on that but you dont need to do anything as long as you have the right radio and the rom has been cooked properly it'll be all good.

CHT 2.0 stands for Cookies Home Tab 2.0 it is a defferent manila home screen that really rocks. The CHT 2.0 makes the Windows Mobile home screen like the Andriod home screen by giving you pages left and right, but it unlike Andriod it gives you pages up and down too. If you are use to Andriod you will really like CHT 2.0.
The memory trick that conantroutman mention is where the ROM make the HD2 think it has the same amount of memory as a TMOUSA HD2 or atleast I think that is what he meant. The Euro HD and The TMOUSA HD2 have different ram and memory specs.
Yes the Euro HD2 can flash a TMOUSA radio but the TMOUSA HD2 can only flash TMOUSA radios, if it is not a TMOUSA radio and it is flashed to a TMOUSA HD2 it will brick the HD2. Your radio you have will work with Win Mo ROMs. If I was you though I would run a task 29 befor flashing the Win Mo ROM just so you will have a clean HD2 to flash the ROM to. Also I would mosf definitly advise you to flash a custom ROM cause if you try to flash the official ROM for your HD2 it will remove both HSPL and MAGLD from your HD2. You will want to keep both of these so hou can reflash a NAND Andriod ROM to your HD2 when you get tired of Win Mo or nust want to revert back to Andriod.
Thanks for all the info guys.
I'm downloading the Sencity NRG ROM now. One thing though, it has two versions, 28244 and 21916, does it matter which one I download or is one for the US Leo and one for the EU?
To sum it up quickly........
28244 = 6.5.x - start button in the bottom left of the screen and two big softkeys next to it - slightly newer build version but slightly more unstable.
Apparently more finger friendly.
21918 = 6.5 - start button in the top left on the taskbar. The official build which all stock roms are based on. In my opinion looks cleaner and more stable.
Both will work on either model. Check some screenshots to see the visual differences, I dont like the look of 28244 but its all down to personal taste.
28244 is newer & popular as far more finger friendly due to menu & close keys in in bottom bar.
These ROMs set up well far surpass android.
I'm on 21916 now. Feels like I have a new phone! Still need to get used to it.
How do I get my google contacts to sync to my phone?

Never done it myself but should work fine.
Activesync is the connection between the HD2 and the PC. If your on XP.
If your using Vista or Win7 you might need to dl Windows Mobile Device Centre to get a connection.

I would really recommend 28244 builds as they offer advanced features & more touch friendly UI.
Enjoy it, Android is quite dull & limited compared to an Energy ROM with a clued up user.
Sad to say... I had to go back to NAND Android. Gave WinMo a shot, but I just felt it's so outdated. Maybe because I've tried WP7 and Android before it. Just found it a bit too business-man like for me. Just overall, found it not as good as the up to date OS' out there atm. Oh well, maybe I'll try it again soon.
I'm shocked, Android is dull as mud & as flexible as glass.
You should of tried it a bit longer.

Put a MIUI ROM on there and you'll feel like a good smack in the face of android... to wake up and smell all that (eclair, froyo, gingerbread and honeycomb goodness).
