Hello there,
well, before a week I have just purchased a HTC TOUCH HD UK from expansys
as my experience with first touch HD ELF which is stolen in bus of our university
I have upgraded the rom to windows 6.5 (ENERGY ROM LAST VER ) , but it become slower and hot when I run Android Via HaRet ??
:'(
HELP HELP HELP
Also is there any way ( no problem in 3 months or four ) to Format fully the ROM and install Android as main in it
thanks so much
and also I want best software navigation , which has middle east maps and does not become my HD Hot
thanks again
best regards,
ms4cah
You could try with an extralight ROM: if you run Android via HaRet the HD is working because runs a program (Android) all the time (so CPU works and makes HD hot).
To now there isn't possibility to flash HD with Android.
TomTom or iGo8 but HD become hot because CPU and GPS run...

Currently no way to flash Android onto rom. Only available as a programme on top of a rom. As already advised your best option may be an ultra light rom which should improve speed for you

Hi,
Are there noticable speed improvements when comparing a HTC Touch HD with the initial stock ROM (I think it is 1.14) and the latest cooked ROMs like the one from Dutty or Laurentius, etc?
I am asking because we tested today the phone of a colleague with TomTom 7.450 and iGo 8.0 and not updated ROM 1.14 but with SD Card tune, AGPS disabled etc. and both navigation systems were quite slow, quite a big GPS lag, there were also freeze problems (my colleague says the htc freeze fix was installed, but as he was not sure he tried again and it says incorrect version now). In fact when I compared the navigation system/GPS performance with my old HTC Magician with external bluetooth GPSSlim236 with TomTom 6, the difference was so much in advantage of my old phone ... I cannot rely on the the HTC TOuch HD to reach a destination ...
I wanted to buy the HTC Touch HD so much, but now if the device/GPS is so laggy I guess I must wait for another 1 year, until the HTC Tegra phones come out ...
Well I'm kind of new to the wm scene, I recently bought a htc dual, but i found that is lags to much it's fairly slow compared to my T-mobile dash which I had also updated to wm 6.1. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to increase the phones speed.
This is Windows Mobile so it must work slowly. This is not other phone without operating system
I know that, I had the dash before the dual, what I'm asking for is software that is a little more reliable than the original software for the dual, because of the simple fact that it lags more that 6.1 kavana which I used on the dash.
I meant then
If you've still got the stock ROM on it may be an idea to have a look at one fo the custom ROMs in the Nike Upgrading forum. Depends if you want to stick with WM6.1 or go with WM6.5 (don't forget it's all beta though).
Some cooks do lite ROMs with a lot of the apps ripped out so see if there is something that matches your requirements.
Hi all I have a Toshiba TG01 running windows 6.5 and wondering is it possible to upgrade to Android if possible as iam not happy with the current software due to issues ie running slow, IE not always running up to speed, slow respond to button presses etc .
Regards

I got a Touch Cruise (and a Mio550) and anyone working with WM5 or WM6.1 can feel my pain using those interfaces. Both upgrade to WM6.5
But why one would ever wanna meddle with the new HD Mini. What is it to win by doing that?
Edit: Im looking for a functional VLC-like player for Divx on HD Mini (my brother's phone). The Coreplayer will not work for me. As soon as i "load" a movie the whole OS gets in a loopback and nothing really works afterwards. Any suggestions?

keep using Coreplayer. only set the Video to GDI...
Coreplayer works fine.
about why changing... I've a Polaris (Touch Cruise) too... and it works fine with rom upgraded to W6.5 and if you are using the Cruise fills your need you don't have too change. but for me, the speed and fonctionality of the phone is important and Cruise is laking in power and ram with W6.5 for me! That's why I changed me phone to have a HD2 on mini size and I'm very happy with it...
I cant argue that HD Mini>Touch cruise, but what im saying is, why would an HD Mini owner load a kitchen ROM on his device? What would be the reasons (not counting Android or WM7)

The same reason you upgrade Touch Cruise to WM6.5!!! to keep it up to date and having the latest advancement on WM... that's all....
ad for having Android as the WM capable devices can handle Android, it's nice to have 2 OS on one device! (imagin having on yor PC a windows and a Linux OS!)
Well ok but the Touch Cruise is loaded with the oldish and cumbersome WM6.1 and the upgrade to 6.5 is a must.
Whle the HD Mini already comes with 6.5 preinstalled so what else would load a kitchen rom for. Maybe for newer Radio roms for better Wifi coverage and battery life?
As a matter of fact my bro's officially upgraded HD Mini through HTC site doesnt have as good WiFi as the one i manually loaded on my Touch Cruise. Its considerably less strong compared to mine (1.65.XX)

radio fonctionality depends also to the mobile services. for example my Cruise works better with radio 1.59.44.02 but cooking roms let the user have the best choice
Hello everybody, i am french and i think my English is quite bad but .....
I have a HTC HD MINI
I have tried to install cyanogene android but after i reinstall windows mobile 6.5, GPS dont fix anything. I have tried a lot of things, like hard reset, modifications of parameters (COM 0.....7 anf 4800 ....57600....) but nothing. TOMTOM 7 told me 'are u in a batilment.?".
I am so disappointed !!!!!
Do u have any suggestion??
Thanks
You have to install Android again, go to options, activate the GPS and then install Windows again.
Did you Download (upgrade) satellites position in windows mobile??!!
Every 7 days you should do this for better calibration!!
GPS Problem
Hi friends.
My friend has a HD mini (he bought it in 14 days before) and he has a same problem with gps.
the device is old (used- second hand) (sry for bad english). and when bought it, rapidly he installed nand!!!
now, he came back too windows and he sees the GPS nothing work. he didn't test it before installing nand.
I did every thing what I knew about GPS problems may appear after coming back to windows. (like, turn on GPS options in android and come back to win) but its GPS don't work.
Has been GPS corrupted?

Hi Morty.
If I understand correctly ....
I do not think GPS is Dead. Only believe, is blocked. I noticed that there are some releases Android ROMs, which block the GPS.
Some evidence of mini hd and hd2 I have demonstrated this.
The only advice I can give you (what I have written in other threads) is to go back to WM6.5. From here to try some release Android sd (I forget which I used on hd mini) obviously do not install the one you have already tried. I hope I was clear and helpful.
Best regards.

Hi, especial thanks to M O R T Y , this post is about me, I want to add these two point: first that I used the exactly version which the former owner used before (Update cm 7.2.0 RC0 photonic KANG signed) and second that in W.M 6.5 the icon that shows GPS is activated , is shown while my device not only isn't able to orientate me but it can't download updates correctly as well, it starts downloading till download bar becomes 100% and then this message appears :
<<Data Activitation failed
Location setting must be on so that downloading satellites can be used to speed up GPS startup time >>
of course now I am using SAVVAS.
sorry for my poor English.
thanks a lot
mine not working either
I flashed HD Mini to CM2.7, GPS and Wi-Fi are not working. It seems to be that the driver can't be loaded correctly.
1. reinstall CM and go to settings > location, and check "use GPS satellites" and turn off phone
2. restart in bootloader volume down + power and reinstall WM
Starting Android from SD Card and turning on GPS there should work too. So you dont need to flash it again.
