I am sorry as I am certain this question has been asked, but... I really like my TMO HD2 and would like it even more if I could just get rid of WM on it and run only Android Froyo 2.2!
Here are my questions:
Can I remove WM entirely and just install Android Froyo 2.2?
If I can, what would be a decent ROM/Version to use and
How would this best be achieved?
I am truly sorry if my post bothers anyone, I just can't seem to find any simple and direct answer that helps
Thank you
It annoys because it gets asked so often and can be answered by a simple forum search!
Give it a go and see what you can come up with!

I am sorry...
I have literally camped-out on this forum for approximately two weeks now and have been unable to see anything clearly setting-out an answer that meets my needs!
I have seen and read-over about one hundred original posts that allow for the "running" of Android from an SD Card, but not as a WM replacement OS for my TMO HD2!
It is clear that many people are working very hard and I really do appreciate it! i have even submitted donations that reflect my admiration!
If you have seen a posting that directly answers my questions/needs please feel free to point me in the right direction...
Thank you
If you have spent two weeks reading on the forum.....
A short search gave me this discussion, dated 5 days ago, quite active...
First you should answer following questions:
Why do you want to run only android?
What is the problem going through winmo for android?
To answer your question:
For the moment (and probably for ever) it is not posible to run android from ROM. This is due to problems with accessing the NAND. As long as that problem is not solved, it will not be possible.
If running only android is so important, youshould start looking to replace your HD2 for an Android model.
I am sorry, but your answer is not so hard to find. So lying about the amount of time spent on searching for this subject on the forum. (especially because this question has been asked and ansewred so many times.) will not help. On the other hand, if you really spent two weeks searching the forum for an answer to your question, I wonder if you understand/know what you are doing. Either way (lying or clueless) I believe trading your TMOUS HD2 for an Android machine is for you the way to go.
If this does not answer your question, then be more specific.

I think it would have been easier to simply state that it isn't possible...but if ranting helps then your welcome!
If you would have really invested some time (about 30 mins), you could have come to this conclusion yourselves.
BTW: You're welcome

...yes Sir'
I think, the best way for you is to sell your Leo and buy an EVO,. because it has the same technic or better inside and Android system. Also an 8 Mpix Cam and a stand in the accu cover.
Hi dudes!
I just bought my first Android phone - Huawei U8150 IDEOS. It has Froyo on it and it is "with Google" on the back, which by the reviews means that is with bold Android 2.2 and not with some apps from the manufacturer.
But, as this is my first phone on Google, I would like some recommendations for apps, security maybe, what to do with it, and of course some basics about the Android itself because I don't know nothing about it. Don't be angry at me for that, and I know that this is not the COOLEST phone (by coolest probably means most expensive ) but it is enough (given the money amount spent on it).
Am, also I live on the Balkan so probably some apps for US region may not work for me.
Any tip and info will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Am.....sorry if there is some other thread like this one out there, I searched and - no results, but again, I may be mistaken. So if there is something like this, please let me know and then close the thread. THANKS!
Bye!
SORRY GUYS, PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD AS I SEE THAT THIS IS NOT THE PLACE, I JUST SAW ANDROID ON MY PAGE SO I THOUGHT THIS IS IT. BUT IT IS THE CHEFS CENTRAL. SORRY AGAIN. BYE!

Here's the link: http://bbs.ejiayu.com/thread-397439-1-1.html
Use Google translate. You have to join the site. You have to wait 24 hours. Then you have to click on the link in the first post, it will send you to an empty post for you to make, you make that post (anything you put there is fine), and then you can go back to the first post and download the updated rom. There are two versions of the rom, one for flashing from the card and one for flashing with the cable.
Sorry, I have nowhere to upload it for you, so I can't send you my copies.
I am waiting for my phone to arrive. I got the Etotalk rom, so my hope is that they are using the updated rom version and it will already be fixed.

Are you talking about the G2 or G2S?
Please keep us informed about any improvements with your display problems after updating the rom.

My guess is that he really is talking about the G2S. This is a known problem, and Jiayu immediately issued the updated rom to correct this problem. In addition, the web page says that after installation of the new rom, the user must not touch the screen during the first boot before the unlock slider appears. Here are their words, as translated by Google:
Note: After the upgrade is complete, the first boot, the phone screen did not appear before sliding unlock switch, the phone can not power off (do not pull the battery), the hands can not touch the screen, otherwise it will affect the touch screen problem correction! ! !

Yeah, I don't like having to look all over the place. I was posting at least some in the Jiayu G2 thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1736279
Maybe that is the best place to take our conversations? The G2S is very different from the G2, so I don't know if that is right either.
I'm very interested in getting a ClockworkMod Recovery image for this phone. But I don't have the phone yet, so there is little I can do yet.

Yes, I posted in the same thread as well. I feel a little bit lost between the g2 and the g3 related stuff.
Have you ordered a G2S already?
I'am very close to it. The only thing I'am still missing is a decent review of the first batch devices which are sold at the moment and reliable information about the fixing of the jump screen problem. I'am not very keen on getting a G2S and have to realize that the jump screen is based on a hardware problem. I could not read anywhere that the jump screen problem is really sorted out with the last software update. It is only mentioned that it has been improved as far as I understood the posts in the chinese forums.
To build a cwm recovery for the G2S should not be a problem, I reckon.

No, I don't think I have any more information than you. I have been looking at the Jiayu forums for information as well. It seems that the "official" Jiayu statement is that the jump screen problem is fixed by the software update: http://bbs.ejiayu.com/thread-395114-1-1.html
It's a bit more comforting to hear that they acknowledge the problem and have (are?) working on it. All of the other problems mentioned in that post are not causing me to worry.
Unfortunately my previous phone broke, so I am forced to wait no longer. So I ordered the phone already. Although it is DHL shipping, I think it might take some time to arrive. I ordered it from Etotalk and had them install their mod rom. I had already asked if it was based on the newest rom and they replied that it was. But I would suggest waiting for a while if you possibly can. There is always some risk when you buy a phone from a lower tier manufacturer and they are using really new technology.
While I wait for my phone, I need to learn how to use the tools for creating a CWM Recovery. I have already created a modified rom from the official download, but I have no phone to install it on. Unfortunately, I don't find a recovery.img file in the rom I downloaded. I am assuming I will need to pull it from the rom on the phone when I get it, but maybe I just don't know where to look for it. Any help anyone has would be appreciated.

There is a great tutorial how to create a recovery mod for the G2S here. As soon as I get a G2S I will build a recovery following that tutorial.
Like you I have read through all the well known forums and not that well known forums to gather all information I could get regarding the mediatek chipset 6577 phones. Now the time has come to make use of it. Difficult to wait any longer.
Btw, I read that DHL express delivers bloody fast, only 4 days for shipping from China to Germany was the best. I hold thumbs that you'll get it as fast as that lucky guy.
Could you please backup the Etotalk rom before you customize it? Most likely I'am going to order mine at mixe and I would like to test the Etotalk rom.

John

I will definitely backup the Etotalk rom before going any further. But I suspect it is going to have very little changed from the stock rom because I only need English and Traditional Chinese. So it might not be localized in a way that can work well for you (depending on what you need).
I also suspect that it is very easy for them to modify the rom. Already they have Jiayu's official update that is pre-rooted or at least has Superuser in the rom (so rooting will be easy). Then they just delete a few useless apps and the rom is done, as long as it is just in English and Chinese. But any user can delete those apps immediately after rooting, so that is not significant either.
Thanks for the link. I will definitely look at that when I have some time later today or tomorrow.
I will also need to work on installing the tools for backing up and flashing roms. On my Huawei U8220, I made many rom mods and distributed them over at MoDaCo. But I think there will at least be some new things to learn when working with this MediaTek phone.
Maybe it will be time to start an "unofficial" Jiayu G2S thread some time soon. I'd prefer having a good title for the thread (like the G2 thread), and someone who will update the first post when important new information (or roms, etc.) happens. This thread is to specific in the title.
I will also have the Jiayu G2S, it is a very nice phone

Wow, that was a thorough review! Thanks for the link.
Nice to hear that there was no problem with the jump screen. Still, I will be careful to do two things on the initial boot:
1. Not install the SD card.
2. Not touch the screen until it is done booting.
I had to laugh though: the "Antutu" testing software got translated to "An Bunny". :laugh: And I know enough Chinese to know why.
My phone will probably ship today. I don't understand why they were having trouble with my address in Chinese characters. :silly:

Regarding the jump screen issue there are two (new) threads in that forum.
As far as I understand it is said that the problem still exists and it (likely) could be a hardware problem.
Hope that is not the case.

PS: Regarding the Chinese-English translation: What is meant by "brush"? Is it "update"?
PPS: Bunny is indeed funny. :laugh:

I believe "brush" = "flash". I should look at the Chinese character to make sure.

hello is anyone there??
So register on the site yourself & use one of the many translation tools that are readily available for everyone to use these days. A native Chinese speaker reading your thread & doing what you're asking (which you're easily able to do yourself with a bit of initiative/work) may never happen. It hasn't happened in 3 days, I'll lay London to a brick it won't happen if you're still here bumping this thread in a month.
I know what I'd be doing if I were you (but you won't you'll sit here forever bumping this thread waiting for something that will never happen to happen).

if i'm asking for help it means that i need it. i used the translation tool in the site but the translated text is a bit confusing. i would write directly to the post i saw the ROM in xda but i don't have enough credits to write there so that's why i'm asking here and your irony wasn't so helpful.
anyhow thanks for spending your time answering me.
In an effort to help keep this forum tidy use this tread only for general questions
You don't need to create a post for a question that most likely has been answered already keep it in here. Your questions will be taken care of. Thanks
So no new threads?
I'm not so sure that consolidating all z3V questions into one megathread is the answer.
How about telling people they should search before posting, or tell people to stop being post whores trying to rack up their post counts.
THAT'S what seems to be the problem.
There's definitely not another thread on this section asking about RAW camera files. I've checked. But I've answered a few posts recently with links to other posts in this same section.

Sony Z3 Flashboot loss
Hello everyone, First of all I searched the forum a little to find an answer to my question, but not speaking English and having trouble with the words which are automatically translated by the machine translation I am a little lost, so I decided to post this topics, so please excuse if this post is duplicated, in which case please tell me the original topic, and please excuse my poor english as well.
The subject is therefore in the title, it seems that I lost my fastboot after having rooted and done some experiments with my Z3, of which I obviously lost the DRM keys .. I had done this a few years ago. ..
Some time ago I wanted to use this Z3 again, bored by my redmi Note 5 Plus. After having reset the Z3 via Companion PC, I lost the routing .. and when I wanted to root the Z3 again, I realized that I had lost the Fastboot ..
So I would like to try a custom ROM for the first time, I was thinking of LeneageOS, or CarbonRom, but for that I obviously have to have access to the fastboot, but this one seems to have disappeared .. whether it is by manual manipulation or by the way by ADB, I end up with the black screen, the blue led, and the software does not see the Z3.
How can I reinstall a fastboot?
