will htc hd get windows mobile 6.5 officially or not please who know any information even if he wasn't sure tell me
There is no information about that, in official information from MS is only three devices at the moment, see http://db.msmobiles.com/Lists/p/windows-mobile-6.5-upgradeable.aspx, but HD is not listed...
I thought that htc officially said that they will not upgrade any phones either released before some date or before the touchpro2/diamond2. Either way, I believe they said that no official 6.5 for htc HD. (I think this was either during CES or GSMA....or some other large congress). Either way, I remember at the same time that they announced that there were already cooked ROMs of wm6.5, which doesn't get released till the summer...lol, that's just how good xda is.
(PS, wm6.5 doesn't impress much, seems like just a filler before 7 comes out. Looks like it got pushed back so they wanted to relase something quick...and hence 6.5)
and take all of the above with a grain of salt
There are some THD users with WM6.5 already. Anyone care toshare with me where to download that?

A little bit of searching on this forum would have given you plenty of answers.
In short, the hardware is capable of running Windows 7, but the question remains if HTC will release an Official Upgrade for the LEO.
If not, there will probably be someone (or many) at XDA making a Windows 7 ROM.
The final version of WM7 probably won't be released until a year from now, so I'm not sure how relevant WM7 is to someone buying a phone now. The HD3 will probably be one of the first phones to run WM7.
This has been already discussed in this forum

"According to a post from an Adobe employee in the Adobe forums, the first Flash Player 10.1 phone running Windows Phone 7 will be the HTC HD2, which should please HD2 owners who have been waiting for official confirmation that the phone will get an upgrade from Windows Mobile 6.5. "
this sounds like good news to me ill buy it when it comes out and window 7 is just a plus. but id get this phone window 7 or not. if windows 7 isnt upgradeable then im sure android will make its way to the phone after the htc bravo comes out similar hardware

they are only talking about wp7 series development and apps no phones will be mentioned
Did you see Engaged Show with Aron Woodman form Microsoft? If you don't, watch it! Host ask "It will be upgrade for HD2?" Answer:"More information at MIX10".
i think its highly likely that windows 7 makes it to hd2. for a couple of reason if not then why would he say to wait for mix10, second adobe would know what what where and why they are working flash 10 for. i mean they are specific with the devices getting adobe 10 not android 2.1 but nexus. last but not least window7 is late to the show if a plateform has the juice to run it. i think they will best served to get it on as many phones as possible asap. as the apps will give them money this time not the os. more phone with the os potentially more apps to be sold
I heard that WinMo 7 wasn't coming to the HD2 because it did not qualify. The stated reason was that MS has changed the HW requirements for WinMo 7 in that any WinMo 7 phone can only have 3 buttons at the bottom. The HD2 has every other requirement except that; it has 5 buttons at the bottom. Now, I have an HD2 and want WinMo 7 on it. but that was the word I saw recently. I hope the article was wrong. I will find the link and post it (if that is proper.)

Actually I'd say it's more related to the fact Windows Phone 7 min requirements requires 8GB of internal flash memory, since Apps wont be installable to the SD card.

That was the most 'legit' statement of the HD2 getting 7 Series till a few weeks ago...
BUT, It went like this:
-FIRST, they said the 1st Windows Mobile device to get flash 10.1 will be the HTC HD2.
-THEN, they said that they are not developing Flash 10.1 for Windows Mobile 6.5 anymore, because it is missing some 'important stuff' blabla. They are going to focus on getting flash on 7 Series.
AKA, the HTC HD2 is not getting 7 Series, nor Flash 10.1. Which again, was working quite well in that video Adobe showed us a few days before MWC.
sad to say but it think this phone has just died............. smh oh well i get my nexus one 2morrow.......

This was posted weeks ago.
And, for the record, only an idiot would interpret the original posts on the Adobe forum in this way, and only a gullible, unthinking person would repost the story without checking the original forum posts that were the source of the "story".
What happened was that, back in January, Adobe was still planning to release FlashPlayer 10.1 for WM6.x. They announced this, and mentioned that the HD2 would be the first WM6 phone to run it. By February, there had been a major change of plans, and the release of FlashPlayer for WM6.x had been cancelled, thus invalidating the January announcement entirely. Adobe therefore posted a new announcement saying that they had cancelled the WM6.x project, but that they intended to develop FlashPlayer for WP7S.
That's all.
The Samsung Omnia 7, the first Windows Phone of Samsung mobile will get a update to Mango.
