It is possible that I go over to the HD's forum, take the android build and use it for the HD2?
I guess, what's wrong with doing that? Will it work or will it damage my HD2?
With 142 posts under your belt I'd hope you would already know the answer to that and thus wouldnt have posted, but as you have posted I guess I should reply to stop you making a big mistake.
The HD and HD2 are completely different hardware, so best case it wouldn't work, worst case you'll get a brick. A very attractive and slim brick, but a brick none-the-less...
DONT DO IT!

There are people with +500 posts who don't know 2G from 3G, or even the carrier/frequency they're on. I'd say it's a safe question for someone with 142 posts
Don't do it OP.
I just picked up my HD2 I was searching through Craigslist, I found someone who is claiming to have an HD2 that dual boots WinMo and Android. I was under the impression this was not possible yet?? I wouldn't pay that much for a HD2 but It would be nice to have Android.
http://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/mob/1661032289.html
some people are claiming that they have seen hd2 dual booting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6025146&postcount=32
but until now xda devs were not able to get the kernel running yet.

I figured if anyone would know it would you all here.
People BS a lot of Craigslist.
Worse yet, most people don't know any better and would fall for it.
I saw a lot of people putting EURO HD2's up on craigslist, claiming that they are 3G capable in the US, and selling them for $400 or more a few weeks before the US launch...and they were obviously selling.
I dont think its true. there has been so much scam around the last time...... when was the day when all wannabe devs started to turn into idiots?
Its BS.
Shame though, booting from droid and winmo would be awesome.

second that.
Really? People haven't been able to get Android to run on the HD2? I have had it on my Fuze for a few months now. Almost everything works as well.
I was going to start looking into having it on my new T-mobile HD 2 as well.
Just read how he describes it and you'll know he doesn't know much. Don't waste your time.
Yes, the guy sounds like a 14year old kid who doesn't know how to make a proper sale ad. He has no idea what he's talking about.
He probably installed an Android wallpaper and thinks it makes the phone dualboot into Android.
I just read as I googled "Sprint 2.1 update" I get all kinds of, Sprint releases Moment update 2.1, I thought we were getting the "official bits" first?
Why is it I always pick the phone that takes forever to get anything done on, lol...
Thank God for XDA!
I think you need to re-read your google links, as it was a leak.
Something that we've had a few times now for the 2.1 roms...

better to just leave it alone..

i know im so using those =P
and on topic, the moment will probably get the update i think first, its plain android and its much easier to port android 2.1 1:1 like that.
Im aware this is the HTC Hero thread, and I dont care about the moment, other than that fact that it seemed, and Im correcting myself I did not see anything that was officially stating that it was official, I was mearly stating that everything I saw, was saying that Hero would get the bits first, then moment,.
Im sorry if I posted this in the wrong place, but Im a hero user, and it urked me.

That wasn't to you specifically.. Just a joke about the forum.. Don't worry about it.. You can post whatever you want, this place is for you to learn...
All I can say is that it's about damn time. I've been loving 2.1 on my hero for the last couple weeks while my wife's moment has been crying itself to sleep. Looks like they've already rooted it over at SDX, so I'm gonna probably flash that whenever I get home from work.
Of course, what would be *really* nice is if Sprint put out something official for a change.

Has sprint ever officially done anything
This is crazy...
Just for you narrow-minded people...
Just because it is not "officially" released on your schedule, doesn't mean anything negative to a company...
Just look at Verizon and the Storm 1.. People kept hounding and hounding Verizon for updates for the phone, but when the update wasn't what they expected, go crazy that they should have done better QA...
It is Sprint's responsibility to make sure all issues are addressed and taken care of... Do you have any idea how many thousands of issues are brought in the testing phase???
Do you know how hard it would be to guarantee a million phones for retail, from a single demo(test) device??
Have a just a tiny bit of understanding and stop complaining....

Narrow minded? Is that would you consider Microsoft? They release software that has no business being in the market place, only to patch it every tuesday when admins like me all over the world find bugs and exploits, and errors and problems. Just release the damn thing, and do incrementals as needed. Take the M$ route and get us what we want!

I would take that with a grain of salt, if I had a dime for every article I saw that had a date in it, I'd have enough money to buy Google and get 2.1
It'll be out whenever Sprint is ready. It doesn't help that they are dragging their feet, most likely for their proprietary apps. I'm not holding my breath.

Some guy over at androidcentral got a hold of an evo and is answering questions, http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g/12667-i-have-evo.html

Hot damn.
ohhhh man i cannot wait, hopefully parents will let me buy this...
Evo forums?
May THEY would like to know?
Please stop cluttering the CDMA Hero forums, we just got this seperate forum in the last two to three weeks now.
And having to wait for months to get our own seperate forums, it would be nice for the posts to be about just that....no?
Thanks,
Bubba.
P.S. And I know what is being said, EVERYONE with a hero is gettin a EVO, NO THEY'RE NOT.
Maybe everyone in ALL the other forums are gettin a EVO also, BUT you're NOT posting in ALL the forums are you?
His neocore score is 24.7 fps on the EVO. I find that troubling because my Hero pulls that off when running at 767 Mhz.

Actually, all the reports I've read say it has 1 GB internal storage so I guess he could be correct. I'm more worried about the fps score on neocore. The storage problem is fixed with an sdcard upgrade.
I'm thinking once the ROM is torn apart and optimized, it will pull much higher scores.
Try Neocore on the completly stock Hero ROM, see how THAT compares.
Look at it this way, Overclocking the Hero, running a zipaligned/deodexed blah blah blah with JIT, I pull about 30FPS in Neocore. Now imagine running like that on the EVO.

I saw lag too. Were you even watching or were you busy salivating all over your computer screen? busy salivating all over your genitals*
WTF is everyone's deal saying **** about the Evo?
It's not even out yet. The software probably isn't fully up to date, thus the reason for the infamous "lag". Not to mention, the Evo is expected to come with Android 2.2, which is said to give Android phones 5x the performance increase in all areas of the phone over the current Android 2.1:: SOURCE
It's not hard to imagine that once the Devs around here get a hold of the software/hardware of the Evo and make modifications; you'll see amazing things being done with the Evo. It might even be able to create a black hole...
Just wait till June 4th, then we'll see its real performance.

Can't provide one, yet. I'll ask my brother though (He works Sprint). However; my comment was: "The Evo is expected to come with Android 2.2" meaning; that it might not and that I'm speculating. This is because Flash 10.1 (the real, finalized version -- which is rumored to be debuting at the Google IO this week) will be running on Android 2.2. It's only logical to think if Flash 10.1 is going to be offered as a feature on the Evo; then Android 2.2 would come with preinstalled on the Evo, as 2.1 does not have the full version -- currently only the lite version (if I remember correctly). We'll see though. I'd love to have 2.2 over 2.1 -- but I'm sure this is only a matter of grabbing any new phone that does have 2.2 and modifying it to work with our phones when/if it is released.

So far you're right... but I'll get my hopes up all day. Thanks.
I'm thinking that since they already spent this long getting 2.1 on it (Read: hacking WiMAX support into 2.1) it will ship with 2.1, and may see 2.2 ~6months after release.
I saw this tweet earlier today.....how gay. The EVO and every other phone being shipped out get the upgrade except us. I'm getting really sick of these companies just ditching the stuff that's already out there when it's not really even an outdated phone. This was tweeted from Sprint

Some of us can't afford to keep getting a new phone every 6 months sir. I just got the Hero a few months ago and I'm not spending 500 for a ****in phone. I can do alot more with 500 then buy yet another phone. Bottom line, there's no reason to abandon the Hero yet. If they bothered giving it 2.2 it'd run a ****load better. Yes, I realized I was in the wrong section afterwards but this one is bookmarked, my fault.
Moved as not Android Development.

But yeah, we won't officially get it, but we will get it.
well sprint can try to lease us in the cold, but the legend will get froyo in the next few weeks and it will get ported to the hero, so we will see the htc version of froyo...LOL

By the way, I have a friend on Facebook who says froyo will be ob the hero.

Now I cant stop laughing.
Just a few months ago, before we knew the Evo was coming out, many of you were not bashing your phone. Now, all of a sudden alot of threads on here peopleare bashing the Hero. You bought the phone. You had 30 days to return it, yet you chose to keep it. If you hate the Hero, shut the F**K up and get you a damn EVO or something else and move over to their forum. I'm sure you will find something wrong with it also.
Yes, my Hero might not be getting 2.2, but the Devs are working on it and have most of it completed. I'll have it on my phone regardless. The problem with our phone is HTC does not want to make Sense work with 2.2 on our phone as it will probably slow it down. You can blame HTC and not Sprint.
I never bashed my Hero. I love my Hero. I just want an Evo. Nothing wrong with that.
After a chat with a Sprint rep. I was told there was no news regarding 2.2. I asked about the tweet and was told that the info regarding 2.2 not being available for the Hero or Moment was wrong and to "ignore this information."
Gasp indeed Sprint. Gasp indeed...
Then there is hope o:
of course the sprint rep told you that. After the beating Sprint is taking in their own forums I expect nothing less
well Sprint Barely gave us 2.1 not to mention they skipped all by 2.0. Every body was ranting and raging about that. Now theres a new version coming out your ranting again... wow. The eyes of men are truly never satisfied
but dont let me fail to mention. What sprint want do, we have some genious developers here that will do it. Therefore, i want complain. I have froyo on my hero already and its beautiful.......
The funny thing is that they claim there are hardware compatibility issues (processor, etc.) that prohibit the Hero from running Froyo. LOL
