Android should make it to Xperia soon as well, then?

thanks

i think you can install the dual.root but there is no version of android itself to run on htc hd 2, as i assume.

if they mange to port it yes, ideally it would have a dual boot where you can chose what you want too boot when you turn on the phone.. that would be really nice
what about this? i found this on a website wich i cannot post here because i'm new.

Yes, what he said. You can READ about the progress they have made, but please no posts like:
'Can't you just use the Android from Nexus One?'... The Developers are smart people. So to be honest, there is probably NOTHING you can teach them. Just let them to their job. It is harder then you guys think, so this could take a while.
Enjoy your HD2 as it is. The main reason I want Android is for the appstore. But probably tomorrow the Marketplace will get an update, that allows you to switch regions, install on SD card, and makes it easier for Developers to make apps. Let's hope the Marketplace start getting better within the next months!
there is no android version for htc hd2 i have tried other versions installing on my device but it did not work..... i think people are working on it hopefully sooner or later we will get it.....
Maybe never !!!
thank you guys and sorry.

i don't think it will work unless someone create a specific haret for x2. was discussed some while ago but don't remember thread right now.
why is specific haret needed? Becouse of the hardware?

I would assume that different drivers etc are needed.
probably some difference in the hardware etc
too bad..I know everyone is working on Android for X1, but I'd like to see a port of that for X2 too..I like WinMo on mobile, but if the phone is unusable becouse of that..
Just too bad I do not have enough knowledge for that, I'd be glad to contribute...
ohh man im so frustrated with the current Os on my X2 il be ready to put any other os so i can work normally with this device :|

you should have bought the Xperia X10 if you want to run Android on SE.
Well you should NOT have bought the x2 at all if you don't like WINMO... you would have probably been better off with the x1

I bought my X2 for the great keyboard and design. I'm waiting too to get Android into this phone. All other phones that where available on the market when i bought the X2 look just ugly to me..

If the X10 had a qwerty-keyboard as the X2 has, then i would have bought it. Playing around with a virtual keyboad when is just nonsense. For playing it's ok, but for work it's a toy...

Android on MINI

Hi,
I have seen Chuky's ROM on HD2 and its awesome. Can some one help on getting the latest Android ROM on HD MINI.
Thanks....
Note: I know its a lot of work but can someone really do it here for us.
Android
Hi ,
Is there any ROM for Android , please do keep me posted
Thanks
This would be amazing, is it possible for our little Mini's?

What if my company gives HD MINI and not Aria.
Besides, comments like "You should have bought an Android phone" can be missed in any forum. There's a question if it's possible to run Android on HD mini, not a question about what phone to buy.

Ye, it's really a joke.
Even P4550 has its AND rom.
Mini, with it's twin brother Aria being AND, does not have And roms.

[Q] X8 Multitouch?

Hello!
My question is simple: How can I get Multitouch feature on my X8?
The Answer is simple, too: You can't get it.
The hardware supports it (IIRC). Sony just needs to update the software to support it.
Thanks, I hope they will do this quickly!

Well, they appear to be doing it to the X10: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=777415
Hopefully they will bring this to the X8.

You are wrong, as X10 will get it, X8 will get it too,as the the screens are alike.
With 1.6 und 2.1 there is NO Multitouch support.

Because of this, sony could bring an update out at any moment to allow multi-touch.
Think main question is whether or not SE choose to keep the x10 "more exclusive" by not enabling double-touch on the x8.
On the x10 minis, you can hardly fit 2 fingers on the screen anyways
You could be right. But the X10 is nothing fantastic anyway, I don't see what they have to loose by enabling multi-touch on the X8.

But the question is, does HTC Wildfire have the exact same touch display as X8? Because that's what important, not the android version.
Even dual-touch will be good enough for me, so it depends on SE when they will release the update...
Damnit.

I've heard that both x8 and x10 have "only one layer of the capacitor screen, so multitouch can't be real for them", but I don't know if that's true. I hope not.

Guess what, we-ve got semi-pinchzoom now :>
We should open the x8 to see the chip, and compare it to the WildFire's chip.
I think that they will be the same more or less.
ByTheWay Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 is an older phone than the x8.
Sony Ercisson is a capitalistic pig.
Well Xperia Arc or so called x12 has dualtouch only.
I'll go for the Desire HD, Galaxy S or Iphone 4 rather than the Xperia Arc.
Well if they decide to enable multitouch to the Xperia x8- win on both sides.

Multi- or dual-touch depends on touch digitizers, not chip. There's someone working on a kernel module that can enable a limited verion of pinch-to-zoom.
None of the makers of smartphones are in it for the goodwill. They're all capitalist organisations out there to make money for their shareholders. To say that x10 is older than x8 will be to compare a jaguar from 2 years back with a new ford fiesta of today.
Go to Custom Kernel in Development Section, there, we talk about custom kernel with Multi/Dual Touch
That can't be possible there are already multitouch kernels out there for the x10 but im not sure about the x8 il look it up for u

Depends on what ur looking for... if u want to be able to use WM7 and android this is the only device that can run both atm.
The HD is a very good device and runs both OS's very smooth.
If i were u i would stick to your Desire HD as the specs are better and the device will be more supported in the future as the HD2 is getting older now and wont receive any (official) updates anymore.
WM7 cannot even do multitasking untill end of this year... and by then google will release android ice cream sandwich anyway.
I personally would stick to android, WM7 is just not worth it (yet).
ok. thanks very much for your reply.
i was locking more at running ubuntu. the devs on the dhd have done a brilliant job. but its not functional enough for proper use.
have you run ubuntu on your hd2? if so how does it perform for useability? ie. smS, calls and 3g data
thanks
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App
Sorry, i did not use the Ubuntu build on my hd2 but im interested in experimenting with it too.
I think i just will get a 2nd HD2 as they r very cheap on the 2nd hand market just to fiddle around with ubuntu, meego etc...
Other people can correct me if im wrong but i dont think it would be interesting for daily use (yet) (from the smartphone point of view)

i think this is unfair since the desire is latest than hd2 but i think if they were made at same period it would be a split since desire is android and hd2 is windows anyways they have the same screen and speed

Doesnt matter how its called, everyone knows what im talking about + i did mean updates from rom cookers OR official updates, thats why i pu it between ().
Besides if HTC doesnt release official updates the community wont have updated kernels to work with.
The point of my post was : why sell the HD if you can have both
