first I think you guys are the best you have shown that the Android platform is all they said it would be, before they screwed it down. I have a UK g1 with cupcake 1.5 build crc 1. has any one tryed to root one yet. Or has the downgrade method been patched
you're posting in the wrong area my friend, try the dream android development forum.
noob sorry
Thanks for your input. I Move my thread

I hope this is the right section. If i just posted on the wrong section, i hope moderators can move this thread instead of closing it. Thanks

Hi, i believe some of you remember that i am switching from X1 to HD2... Well, i have changed it and i'm using it now (love the big screen)
I was wandering around this forum... I saw a post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578575&highlight=dualboot
What does it actually means by: "ANDROID/MAEMO/LINUX on HD2"
Is it that when i flashed it, my Windows OS platform is gone for good???
Then... ... I searched deeper. LOL, and notice this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792
I am very very attracted to the DualBoot... Thats actually i wanted for my HD2.
Well, thats not my main question/request...
A troublesome request will be appearing after this sentence, i hope that you guys wouldn't feel fed-up. *(Apologize to you first)*
The most important question... Is it compatible for HD2??? If its not, sorry for this post.
If it is compatible, could someone spare me their time to guide me along the step and procedures to install the android OS and then the DualBoot.
If possible, mind attaching/link the required file for this whole process.
A million thanks to you guys. Sorry if i speak a bit to harsh
P.s. Sorry if there is a guide already up there in the forum . I'm a student and need to study for my test, didn't have time to search so many pages
I don't mind if you copy/paste the guide here... Just attach the required files needed.
Thanks once again
...Sorry if i speak a bit to harsh
I would like to advice you to read more of the ANDROID/MAEMO/LINUX on HD2 thread. You'll see that it still is in full development. For android to work developers need to create a custom kernel that will run on the HD2 using Haret. There is no question of a nand flash of android as of yet.
Now even with the use of Gen.Y dualboot, if you are not able to boot into android, the application in itself is still useless (on HD2). Furthermore, the dual boot application does in fact start your windows mobile Rom but directly start Haret instead of completely loading windows mobile (correct me if i'm wrong please).
So to sum up. Don't worry about flashing over windows mobile. This isn't possible (yet). Running android is not working (yet). And even with the use of Gen.Y dualboot, you'd still run windows mobile as a flashed rom and not Android itself.
I do have to ask though. If you just got the phone and already want Android.. why didn't you get an android phone? Ofcourse if you are like me and just like to tinker with your phone I can understand .
Hi all.. sorry to bug ya guys.. i am not new to the world of firmware upgrading but this h&c magic has been one of the most hardest for me.. i have a rogers unlocked htc magic with

Try that, worked for me!!
Glad that it worked for you!
Our XDA Servers must have somehow accidently moved your new post to the Development section. Don't worry, I'll go ahead and move it to General where it belongs.
Hello Dear Community!
I am now preparing to dump my ****ty HD2 which is driving me crazy and move on to Desire Z. I've never used Android before. The Desire Z will surely attract more n00bs like me, so I guess it would be a good thing to start a sticki HOWTO thread for n00bs. Every popular Android device has a thread like that, so DZ must too!!! As for current progress, I am aware that full rooting is not yet possible, but flashing ROMs is already possible, right? So Can someone start a n00b HOWTO thread with detailed n00b FLASH HOWTO guide, and of course then expand it with other stuff like root, when its available. If this is a double thread, please forgive me, point me to the right thread and delete this one Thanks!
I wish........
Don't worry mates,
the Desire Z is no exception and you can bet you WILL get your tutorial !!
It's just too early to ask for it, because development is just starting
First, we need permanent root (Luckily enough, our mates @ sibling G2 forums are very advanced on this shizz).
Then, a tweaked bootloader.
From there on it will be sweet flashing whores paradise
PS: Keep an eye @ android development forum
guys. I m basically a old user of htc hd2. My friend rooted the phone for me. And it is in a state of dual boot. Recently , i found that it is starting to consume a large memory.
So i decided to flash in a new rom only allow android worked.
android version now is 2.3.5. I also cant determine the version of phone.
This phone is bought in singapore.
mod version: cope and warredb present: American Android GB235 CyanogenMod7.1 HTC LEO 080711
I m a very new member and seriously have no idea on what to do with this phone. i know backup before flash.
Alrdy looking at the forum for 6 hours but i still dun have any idea what to do.
*please teach in detail, i really need it*
So, guys please gv recommendation, tanx a lot.
I just replied to your other thread in the Android Q&A and General. Please don't post multiple threads.
don't repost.. use the search tool.. almost all queries have already been answered
I have an HTC HD2 running the native windows professional 6.5. and I would like to migrate to Android . But I have read too many
amazing stories that actually I feel lost. Which Android version could provide me a little bit of more speed and the same time
be reliable to run.
I would like to have a dual boot version in case of failure
Any advice will be appreciate
Jerome
Hello,
The place where you posted this post, is intended for development only, i.e. no questions should be asked here. Please, for any further questions use the HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and General section.
To your question: We really can't tell which version would be good for you as it differs from one person to another, but you can read this post I made a while back that should help you decide which version to choose. That post also tells you how to dual boot if you want to.
And please use the search tool next time. If you had used the search, you would have found the same post I linked you to as well as many other threads that ask the same questions and get the following answer: "There is no best ROM."
