Use an app that switches at the touch of a button. There are a few out there. I think the one I have is EBL or something like that .
It alows you to either manually select or it can be setup to auto boot after windows has loaded ....

if you are new to doing this than first advice would be to read cause once you install magldr or clk for nand android( android running natively on the device and not through windows), cause if you run into problems you need to know what to do immediately and not wait for anyones response cause your phone can have problems when you are away from a computer. but you need hspl so you wont brick your phone( render it inoperable).task 29 which cleans your phones memory(ram or rom, i dont really know im new to the hd2 too.) than magldr which is flashed like a windows rom and easy in my opinion unless you good with fastboot and that other stuff required for clk. than if you want to play around with differnt roms w/o an aide of a computer. than flash clockwork recovery through usb flasher in magldr. or if you want to just use one rom in paticular make sure there is a DAF for that build cause some only build for clockwork. the rest you can research.

Hello all!
I'm new to this and I have a few questions.
I have been reading around a little bit but it doesn't help much when you have so many codenames like Eclair, donut, vanilla and now CyanogenMod-5 that I got interested.
I have a HTC Hero, I would wait for HTC update to have Android 2.1 but the update got delayed to June. I don't want to wait 2 months for it and that's how I decided to try flashing it.
1) What are my ROM options to flash it? Is it all of them compatible or just a few ? Like, only Hero-compatible ROMs or ROMs compatible to devices that support Android ?
2) Basically I want Android 2.1 (Eclair, right?) but don't want to lose the HTC UI. Is that possible ? (the look, the widgets, etc..)
3) On the other hand, not only I don't want to lose HTC's UI as I'd like more of it. HTC Desire for example has more and new widgets that Hero doesn't have. Is there a community ROM that contains those ? Do I need a special ROM for that ?
4) Does all the ROMs contains the latest dev kernel versions ? the latest android dev version that is.
5) Does it have an auto update to update the ROM ?
6) What's the difference between Vanilla and Donut ? I see many talking about Vanilla, but shoulnd't I want the Donut instead ? ( sounded funny, I know )
Thank you in advance !
Looking forward to socialize in this forum.

1. Only HTC Hero rom's should be flashed (if you're not on Sprint Hero then you're GSM so look for GSM rom's = most) - the wiki has a page dedicated to which rom's are available.
2. HTC theme is called rosie, so look for a rosie enabled rom
3. Some extra widgets come with them - check with each release (you can find them all in the development section)
4. No, most are based upon leaked kernals which have been hacked together to work, they work well enough but as soon as the official 2.1 kernal is available for the hero it will be added in to the rom's
5. Some have OTA updates (e.g. VillainROM)
6. Vanilla just means without the HTC Sense UI (Rosie) so you don't want a vanilla rom. Donut is v1.5 (or maybe 1.6?) of android i believe.
And welcome to the community
Check out my guides for all your needs XD

Thank you! that helped tons!
One more question, mine is not Sprint Hero, just Hero
So it's certain that this is a GSM device ?
How can I tell if it's GSM or CDMA ?
gsm means u can use any sim card
cdma means u cant
Awesome. So mine must be GSM.
Now, what is Radio ROM ?
What is Radio ? Do I have to flash that as well ?
EDIT: I think I get it. It can improve the signal, yes ?
But is it safe to flash this? what are my restrictions?
Looks much more dangerous than flashing a custom ROM
Ok, much more complicated than I thought!
I need to downgrade my kernel first,
didn't find any up to date tutorials on that
only then I need to root and finally flash it
I installed this " ROM Manager " where you have some easy options:
Install ROM from SD card, Download Rom, Check for ROM Updates
just with a click (tap)
That one is easier, but does it work ? How come noone mentions this ROM Manager ?
That are many ROMs to choose..
I take it VillainROM 5.4 is the most popular/older ?
As long as it has Android 2.1 plus the latest Sense UI (not vanilla) then the number of options get trimmed a bit (or so I hope)

Its not too difficult, follow BTDAG's guide in my signature, its bang on. Install custom recovery, flash ROM.
No you do not need to downgrade your kernal. When you flash the ROM it will sort that out for you.
As for using 2.1 ROMs, I haven't taken the plunge yet, I'm using MCR3.2 which is a tweaked fast and stable 1.5 ROM.
You're right, btdag's guide did it for me. Very very useful.
Since I didn't have to worry about kernel, it wasn't thaaat hard.
I already installed VillainRom 5.4 and it's great !
Thanks for answering my questions !

Did you mean radio rom. I think best radio for android is 2.12.50. I have been using android for some time and I have energy. Rom 13 Oct.version ifs working beautifully. Tell me exactly. Where u r stuck
ive had 4 or 5 different android builds running on my energy rom.......
The best one has definetely been this one.......
Try another build because its very likely you've just picked a build that doesnt want to play nice..........
Android on HD2 Energy Rom not working.
Whatsup buds. I'm a tech guy just like yourself and I am putting android on the HD2. I flashed with HSPL3 and I wasn't able to get it to work as it was on the Energy Rom. I have the two files on the phone, the HSRAC and the other one when I load the first one, nothing happens, as it should as it fixes the robotic voice, but the other one brings the phone to the white screen with the Android guy... but it stays on that, have you had similar problems doing this with Energy Rom?

I treid this solution but it doesn't work completely. My phone freezes when I make calls. I must initialize or plug in to use it again.

Whoa! Slow down Brolly007. You've come to the right place to get all of that information, but you're going to have to do a lot of searching/reading and work out exactly what you want? I've had my HD2 since Aug and I'm still using a stock ROM. My advice would be to start slowly?
I expected some help from u ..! my htc showing up some bugs and glitchs...!
you can flash the latest rom from official htc website.........3.14 rom with radio 2.15......then download android onto your sd card and enjoy both latest windows stock rom and latest android too

pakure trying to tell you to put a htc stock ROM on your phone. All the information you need is here: http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=all
Look at the how to tab for detailed instructions?
there is no 3.14.415.x stock rom available fore the moment, so this will not help the OP!
you can do two thing sir,
Firstly (the easiest way) is to do a Hard reset. (but this means you will stay at the older builds, but you start with a cleaner device.
Secondly you can try to install Custom Rom,
maybe this video clip can help you.
But first let me say to go on the Rom thread and read the sticky threads. And when you have made your decision witch on you will install read carefully and follow the builders instruction on the way of install. (Ps, there is no Good/bad custom rom, all depend of your needs/taste)
ty bro i admire your effort ..but i hav seen this video ...all i now want to know dat y am i geting a connection error...! installin custom rom or radio..!
did you install HSPL before trying to flash the custom rom?
And deactivated your AntiVirus software temporary.
This gifs me trouble sometimes.
I've recently found that my P500's touchscreen is not working how it should ...
So, I have:
Android 2.2
Kernel 2.6.32.9 (stock)
Software version: V10c-OCT-12-2010
And I would like to fix:
Touchscreen proccesor bug (the processor is used 100% when screen is touched)
Touchscreen multi-touch problem ( www(dot)youtube(dot)com/watch?v=ujc1sa-3ONY ). It is really annoying in games.
Update to 2.2.1 (if it is beter than 2.2 becouse I've heard that for optimus One is better 2.2 becouse 2.2.1 is slower) or the latest version of Android 2.2
Any way to install Flash on it ? (Lite 3.1 or Lite 4.0 or Flash 10.1... doesn't really matter)
I'm not intersted in custom ROMs or overclocking the proccesor.
Sorry for my bad english.

Fix is kernel from mik_os - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929941
For install you need custom recovery installed (needs root)

Update is available from LG update tool. By update you lost custom recovery, custom kernel and all other updates. 2.2.1 can't be rooted so custom recovery can't be installed. If you don't want use custom ROM, than you can not improve anything (no custom rom = no updates)

Not possible because Adobe not suppport ARMv6 processor, which is used in our device. And it seems, that it will never support as well.

Thanks for the help, but I still have a few questions.
What is the latest version of Android 2.2 for P500 ? It's v10E ?
I don't mind to install custom recovery or modify the firmware a bit, but I don't want to use Custom firmware made by other people (sorry, don't get me wrong, I like to use patches or bugfixes or other stuff like that to improve the performance, but I want to keep the O.S. as stock as possible ... The be honest I would like stock Android on my P500 ...)
Also, how can I kill for good an application ... I mean I kill applications with Advanced Task Manager, but they keep starting again ... It's annoying becouse even if I don't use that app, that app still stays in backgrounds and eat battery ...
And where can I get the Sense UI Wallpaper, Live Wallpapr and if possible the Sense UI widgets ?

You don't need one. Apps that stay in your RAM that doesn't use CPU cycles won't eat your battery. Also, the reason why they're starting up again is that some of your apps (or Android itself) is looking for it, so it starts the app again. Killing and restarting apps consumes a lot more CPU cycles than leaving it alone
Note: Some apps stay in RAM (which taskillers show you even if they're idle) so they can be restarted quickly. Android was designed that way.
Tip 1: Don't use task killers.
Tip 2: Get used to it (Trust me on this one. I restart rarely, therefore I have a lot of apps in RAM and I can still go for 2 - 3 days with my battery)
Tip 3: Get Watchdog from the market. It monitors apps that behave...welll...badly. Or those who have high CPU usage.
I must confirm kpbotbot's words. It is only one thing that task killer kills and it is battery. I had few, and after I uninstall that, I got small improvements in battery live. Till Adnroid 2.2 task killer makes no sense because memory and CPU management was very improved.

It can't be said like that. Every operator have their own version control. Some people also saying that some different version have same MD5 hash so... who knows. Seems, that there is only two versions - 2.2 and 2.2.1.

Its possible to update to v10f from LG updater, but whether your phone is able to detect the update is up to the provider
