Tmous vs eu/rest of the world - HD2 General

I think there is too much focus on TMOUS roms in here, its impossible for other users to find and install roms that are non TMOUS - A brief period there was a TMOUS Development forum in the main hall of HTC Leo: HD2.. Would have been genius if that forum had been kept, but for some reason the moderators merged it back with this forum.. Could it be possible to make an EU/Rest of the world Development forum instead and make the small group of those dev's move to that ? Im pretty tired of installing TMOUS roms, without really knowing if they are for my device or not..

Tmous roms work on regular hd2

Yes, they do.. But you dont get the ram lockup and you dont get the same battery efficiency as if you use an EU rom on your EU device.. EU devices are designed for Radio 2.0X.51.XX where TMOUS are for 2.0X.50.XX.. That makes a huge difference for EU users, not for TMOUS users.. And i am a EU user, so that why i started this thread..

Thats news to me (about the battery life, dont know what you mean by RAM lockup)
Even if there was still the seperate forum, it wouldnt stop developers from cooking roms on the 2.10 base. the only thing that would change wud be that tmous compatable roms would appear here and in the other forum. As mentioned, the tmous roms still work with our EU HD2's...

The TMOUS devices have 576mb ram locked up, the EU only have 488mb..

oh, you made it sound as if tmous roms on eu handsets have some sort of ram issue.

There is a separate T-Mobile US HD2 section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=631

Most people don't seem to mind using the TMOUS roms. Battery is about the same and working with the 2.10 base makes it easier for everyone, in my opinion. Some of the roms have different options you just have to look around, oh and as a heads up there still is a tmous forum.

IOnhide and Pkoper,
Just been to the top of the screen from the link given above, typed in HD2 in the "Jump to Device" box and I get both the HD2 and TMOUS fora come up.
That search box was put there to make navigation even easier than before. Tried the other way, also from the top of the page, using the "Devices by OS or Manufacturer" tab, selected all, got this page...http://forum.xda-developers.com/filter.php?cat=HTC scrolled down and there it is...TMOBILE USA HTC HD2 Fora.
I am at a loss, therefore, as to how either of you could have failed to find the forum, especially given Ionhides sweeping comments earlier. I really don't know how you could have missed it.
If you are having problems with searching or the search facilities on here then please feel free to pm me.

I'm moving this to general as it has nothing to do with Rom Development.

Will Wndows mobile 6.5.3 come to the HD2?

I just saw a TG01 running winmo 6.5.3 at CES and it looked impressive. Small changes and nice onscreen push buttons at the bottom of each page for easy pressing.
I wonder if the HD2 will get it??
already has it. head over to the rom section, bro.
Dude you could have just searched instead of posting a new thread.

There's nothing in the OP about wanting an official version of 6.5.3. It just says 6.5.3. So, he's right. Searching will find it. If you do want an official version, you'll have to wait until it's released. You may still not get it then anyway. It will be down to your provider.

I hope not. If HTC are going to put any effort into a new version of WM then I hope it will be WM7 rather than 6.5.3
Where did the thread starter mention that he has a provider locked phone?

Disagree, my question about where the thread starter mentioned that he has a provider locked phone is relevant in the light of at least one irrelevant answer.
But thank you for your pointless comment.
Back OT - My bold prediction is that HTC won't bother with 6.5.3 but will issue more and more patches for current issues and then present something more advanced at a later stage, probably in the middle of the year.
I have absolutely no factual (or even fictional) basis for the above assertion but it seems entirely reasonable. I feel it in my gut.
Shoot me down if you wish but at least I'm OT.
Same as above, I don't think HTC is going to bother with 6.5.3 (or rather, I'd like them to pay to make actual proper drivers instead of OS updates); in any case, when/if an official release of Windows 6.5.3 is out you'll prolly be able to find it in the ROM section, xda being, you know, xda.
As for personal experience, 6.5.3 transformed my device into a trainwreck (a shiny trainwreck with huge buttons) with all relevant cooked roms as of 5 days ago, making me swiftly retreat to a cooked 6.5.0. Of course, it depends of what you do with it (if you want a device you can rely on and consider stable or not). Your mileage may vary.

ROM Section suggestion!

Hi there,
Im new on the XDA Community cause i recently buyed a HTC HD2,before the HTC i was using an iPhone 3GS and im like "reborn" till im using the HTC...
Well i just have one suggestion that i want to propose to the ROM Section on this forum...
Is possible to add on the main page a prewiew of the ROM,on the right side,so all the people could know how is customized the rom,i know it will use more pages but is better...like the modmyi forum have...
I've made a poll to see what people think about this...
Is just a suggestion,if is the wrong section just Move the thread..
Cheers guys
P.S: Sorry for my english,im from croatia.
Here is how it should look:
nice idea but I think that seeing as many roms have different interfaces eg. Cht, gtc, maxsense. etc it may be slightly difficult to do.
The problem I have found on HD2 forum, is so many old ROMs listed rather than being in one chefs thread with latest version.

In fact that isnt a problem...if a rom have different version the preview would be 1 but like sliding pictures ...so u can see all the versions!
I like a lot this idea,hope that some admin could say something about this...

[Q] Full function android on HD2

I had an HD2 before but did not like windows at all and there was not a suitable android release for it so I sold it.
I really liked the phone but was wondering if there is a good android replacement where everything works available for it now?
Thanks for any help
I use the BOYPPC SHIFTPDA DHD V18 Rom (Desire HD) on my HD and it works perfectly on it.
if you have TMOUS LEO1024 i would check out this ROM. i have found that its pretty much bug free (none that i've found anyway) and a great ROM overall. also a great fast/stable ROM would be RAFDROID HD found here.
if you need a guide on re-installing Android i would check this thread out
I have not bought one yet but I'm looking on Craig's list and will find one soon.
Are the ones you guys mentioned Gingerbread?
Thanks for your help
I've tried almost all available NAND builds for HD2 and I can say that I found only one stable and fast build which is NexusHD2-Gingerbread".
I've tried those big, ram eaters - HTC SENSE ROM's
The thing that convinced me to install it was obviously HTC Sense, but I realized that it's unless if I am not using it's widgets (facebook, twitter, messages, etc).
But that wasn't the main reason why I left these roms, the main reason was the performance. Booting took much longer than on normal clean non-sense rom, I had to wait until it stabilize itself after each boot (1-2 minutes, htc sense had to load up and other processes). Scrolling wasn't smooth as on clean rom. These roms are more likely designed for 1024mb hd2's because on 512 hd2's it just doesn't fit (i don't know how it works on 1024mb but i guess the same, the only reason why I said it is for 1024mb hd2's was because mostly every htc sense build requires sd parition). The phone did not respond as quick as on clean gingerbread build. I just think that camera is better than on clean rom, pictures looks nice, sharp with good contrast.
I've also tried MUI roms.
These roms are nice and simple, eye catchy UI and advanced settings. Ability to change lots of things such as boot image and sound, custom firewall, etc. everything can be easily found, just few taps, everything is nicely designed.
However it is not as quick as clean rom, it can hang somewhere, and not always completely translated from Chinese to English. You can customize it for your own needs.
Normal clean roms are the best in my opinion.
I've used mostly all different roms, Android and Windows 7, and I always come back to NexusHD2-Gingerbread rom. I think that the only thing that makes me changing this rom is it's simplicity. It is the cleanest rom I ever seen and quickest one (you just need to change home launcher to GOLAUNCHER as it make the phone super fast and responsible, because on standard one scrolling through apps lags).
So I prefer this rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060 thanks to it's fast booting, fast responding and stability.
HTC SENSE ROM's might have better benchmarks but believe me it can't be compared with Clean NexusHD2-Gingerbread rom. Every gameloft game
work flawlessly on it.
It is just my opinion from the experience with those roms.
Do we have to have this same topic re-created and re-cycled every single [email protected]*king day?
Its not hard to use search or go through a couple of pages, Its just pure lazyness to create this topic, pure and simple.
Second vote for Gingerbread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060 It is just great and hassle-free, gave me no trouble of any kind.
As far as threads like this are concerned, I don't see why members can't ask for other members' opinions on what they like or dislike. Of course they can go and check out the available versions by going through the threads and posts, but personal recommendations would be the best way of finding out the outstanding work, rather than waste time going back and forth even after all the reading is done and all the problems are noted. It's not only time consuming, it can be daunting with the amount of information and releases that's out there. Perhaps we should run the best release poll and have it stickied to save time. After that whoever wants to try other things is free to rummage through the section and flash at their heart's desire.
@Gabriel51 your bound to get so many different answers because everyone likes different things as already pointed out
@dawid your right that if you dont use the widgets theres really no point at all so i have to give you that but lets talk about scores for a second. i personally clocked 41.something mflops on RAFDROID HD using linpack, a 2816 quadrant score & vellamo was only 29 points behind the dual core Sensation. now im not saying numbers are everything but you would have to admit thats pretty fast. although i really like the wifi calling feature available on the NexusHD2 ROM which im sadly missing :'( this feature alone is worth flashing that ROM
@TheATHEiST it does seem like this is covered on a daily basis from different people and a search would yeild results if people would ever use it. i will say though in all fairness that i use the search feature everytime im trying to find something but i feel the search function on this site is a little subpar causing it to be difficult at times to find what your looking for. most of the time i dont have any problem at all though.

They can, thats not the point, The point is this is the same question, over and over and over, Why create the same topic and ask it again instead of reading one of the other topics? You are going to get just as relevant answers by reading them as you are creating another topic. All topics like this do is clutter the place up.
For example, If I was to get a new device tomorrow, I wouldnt go and create a silly topic like this in my new devices section as its common sense it will have already been asked and answered, Instead I would go and read the topics that already exist and try some roms out for myself. The fun part is learning and adapting.

There is a no stupid question for most educators and then there are those that expect you to glean through hoards of information in hopes of finding and discerning information relevant to ones needs.

I've had this argument a few times now. The point is if you all keep creating threads on topics that have already been Answered your making it harder for people to search for their answers because your cluttering up the forums with sh+t. I'm happy to spend some of MY time answering questions but when the op could of simply typed "revert hd2 to stock xda" into Google and found his answer it becomes quite tedious because this question does get asked everyday.
/edit and the op shouldn't be installing custom roms if he doesn't know how to remove them

[Q] HTC One ported to HD2

Can the HD2 be flashed with the HTC One or One Mini's RoM?
No, and never will be.
Think of it this way, if devices could be flashed with the ROMs of one another, why would each device have its own forum?

But you want the ROM to be flashed, not ported!
Pick your words carefully next time.
I was only expecting, and I'm still hopeful of, useful answers from people that read the thread title before clicking on it, and know off-hand that in order to flash a RoM between devices, it will first have to be ported!
Trust me mate, Marvlesz knows that just as well as anyone else on these forums but he's right, you need to choose words carefully especially given how many people use these forums with English as their second language or by using a translator. As for your question, it's probably possible but it may not be very likely to happen in the near future since many devs have left the hd2 and AFAIK there isn't even a fully functional ICS sense ROM (although I haven't checked hd2 development in ages)

well, sense 4 has stopped a bit, it only has video recording, weather app and abit of bluetooth problems as i remember.
for sense 5, i'm porting it, but kernel is a PAIN in the ass; first time i compiled it with ion it would reboot when using it, so i restarted from scratch (i had some mistakes )
btw, after porting sense 4+, sense 5 is possible, and the other way it's true too

I assumed you didn't know that, as well as the fact that if a Sense 5 ROM is ever to be ported to the HD2, you'd see it in the development section, no?
Also, your title completely disagrees with what your post says. Again, you should have worded your posts more accurately.
As for the "useful answers", read the above posts.
