Apparently it was released yesterday for Vodafone UK customers...
ROM:1.72.161.3
- Where's HTC's 1.72 release?
I was speaking to Voda 2nd line support about this a week and a bit ago.
Its basically the 1.66 rom with 2.08 radio bundled in. No changes to ROM as far as i know just new radio.
EDIT: oh yeah i forgot... its also supposed to fix the issue with downloading pictures that Vodafone HD2 customers might have experienced. As we all know every major network is now compressing images to make their 3G/HSPA networks faster. With Vodafone what is supposed to happen is you will see the compressed image when browsing but when you download that picture it is uncompressed.... this functionality waasnt working previously. This ROM is supposed to fix it.
Well the radio in it is the 2.07.51.22

lol... maybe the 2.08 radio didnt pass his test then.
The guy i was speaking to was the guy testing the ROM... i got talking to him just a few minutes before he recieved the ROM from HTC and the above is what he told me.
Ive just emailed him to confirm whether the picture downloading issue is resolved so when he replies i will ask him why the 2.08 radio isnt in there.
Changes spotted so far:
Sun Java instead of JBlend

Is that something HTC changed on 1.66 to 1.72 codebase?
Or is it something that Vodafone have done...
Anyone with developer/chef skills able to take this apart and look at the software versions being used.
I'd like to know if its 1.66ROM with some "fixes" or whether its actually a 1.72ROM like the codebase a lot of the custom ROM that haven't gone 2.x are using...
It does appear to be based on the 1.72 ROM as most of the EXT packages in it are what I was using for my ROM which is based on 1.72 and it's using base 21869...looks like VF are ahead of the game!!

and o2 keep giving the bull s*** oh the new htc software is to buggy and has not passed o2's tests. have to say i am very impessed with what i have seen from voda phone and i will not be getting my HD3 from o2 thats for sure.

I have both HD2 and Desire (ok the Desire is the wifes but its on my contract so I am paying for it) and whilst the Desire has some very nice features I honestly prefer the HD2...
Right so anyway should I wait for the HTC 1.72 release (if it ever happens), or install the extracted NBH from this and then re-apply 2.09.51.03 Radio...
Up to you - or try my ROM if you like , it's a goodun!

i havent been over there in a while... is it still full of misleading information from mods and over angry noobs?
Yeah, a lot of people have flocked here instead!! There's a lot of copy/pasting from Mods still which is annoying, though...
It's all abuse about the Desire now though and the stock fiasco with that... (although the stock fiasco with the HD2 was a bigger mess)
found it on youtube. I wonder when it will get released? Looks like footprints was added must be a major update!! Just search you tube for hd2 and choose today only .. Its the second video.. Cant wait!!
This one?
If so, that's xmoo... He's on here too.
Footprints is included in the T-MoUS stock ROMs.

foot prints exists from the first release of hd2
I've always had footprints on mine. Why would they add something that already exists.
PS
damn hoss beat me to it
Didn't really see anything different from what we normally have. Hopefully it will increase the over all speed of the phone.
Why is HTC still messing around with 6.5, are then intending to release 6.5.x next year? This is one thing I will surely not miss, HTC taking their sweet time providing updates that are on their own devices.
if you look through the ext package versions theyre mostly older or same as what is in 2.13 rom.
oh and dont go flashing it, save yourself a world of anguish. Notice the warning
NOT FOR LEO1.5!!! NOT FOR TMOUS!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696848
footprints is already on the stock rom since the tmo hd2 shipped, but is hidden by default. go into the options to arrange the tabs in sense and you can turn it on if you like
Hello everybody, this is my first topic here.
After finally learned how to install cooked ROMs on my TMOUS HD2 and test several ROMs, I decided to open this topic.
I believe that as many like the original layout of the HTC Sense and like all hate TMobile crapwares that force us to swallow.
So far found only one identical to the original ROM without the crapwares TMobile, but unfortunately even this ROM still have some "craps" of Stock.
So here's my request ...
Does any cook would make a totally clean ROM with only the original components from HTC and Microsoft? Of course some software cooked welcome (Full Office Mobile, Wifi Routers, 3G Modem and others), but keeping all the original features.
Obviously, since everyone is doing keeping drivers touch of 2.10.
I believe many owners would love TMOUS HD2.
But I congratulate all the cooks, because each of the ROMs that have tested his character.
Thank you all and hope that someone meets this humble request

Yes I tested the Energy ROM, very good but very customizable.
The closer to the ideal that I found was the Lite version of this topic, but still has a legacy of TMobile and Compass will not work.

You are not going to find many more stripped down ROMs than Energy Standard Version, he does put some extra apps in, but if you have a TMOUS, you have around 770 meg of ROM free, and unless you actually use the apps they are not going to impact speed ..
So not really sure what you are looking for ....
Energy Reference ROM
This may be what you are looking for ...
The Energy Reference ROM
It is on the Main Energy Thread page, brand new version, I think it is the green download link under the reference version ...
Should be just what you are looking for .....

Well that is true, but NRGZ28 had quit doing reference ROMs, but he decided to put a new one up yesterday .... , so until then there were no Reference ROMs there, and there still are not in the TMO section ...
But you are correct, if the OP uses our advice he will be good to go ...

Simplifying things ...
Just find it interesting without a ROM Stock crapwares .... just that, without any further customization. I downloaded almost all versions of the Energy and despite features like the board I do not like dea some changes.
I hope I was clearer this time ...

This is what im using and have been very happy. No problems at all, and im also running android as well without issues.

So it looks like the HD2 is in fact getting Windows Mobile 7! I'm pretty stoked! I assume that we can upgrade even with the "cooked" ROMs?

Wow is this for real? Legit??
That article was written in Nov 2009 and was in response to a tweet from an HTC employee which was later withdrawn. They (HTC) have stated that the HD2 will *NOT* be getting WP7 upgrade. Please delete this thread as it is misinformation. Thanks
Yes it is! Three more links for proof:

http://www.redmondpie.com/htc-hd2-to-get-windows-mobile-7-upgrade-9140128/
@the wannabe mod: Read the last three links, one is dated October 8th 2010.
Another link: http://www.pcworld.com/article/192783/htc_hd2_caught_running_windows_phone_7_os.html
These links are for an UNOFFICIAL port of WP7 which is still purely speculative at the moment, and have nothing to do with an OFFICIAL upgrade.
Not all of them. But it's proof that it's not out of the question. Do you have a link for Microsoft or HTC saying this will not be getting the OS?

I cant be bothered to look for one.....
Howevever MS have repeatedly stated the hardware requirements for WP7 handsets and the HD2 does not fit them....... that doesnt mean it wont work on the HD2 but MS themselves wont be the ones to make it work........
Pretty sure there will be a port sooner or later but there will not be an "official" upgrade........
Uh...there's a Samsung phone with the SAME specs as the HD2 that is the first phone to have it stock.
I know, Im not saying its not possible to run the OS on the HD2.......
Im saying MS wont bother to make it work on the HD2.....
Firstly because they're busy enough with the new handsets and secondly because they know someone else will do it anyway.......
That's great but I've seen many recent sources that say HD2 will get it.

Get what??
A port of WP7......??
We've all seen it.........
Nobody is disputing that fact..........
However......
it will be from a 3rd party...
NOT from Microsoft themselves.......
Yes, the official upgrade. Read some of the links I posted.
I've also seen images of HD2 running W7. Any literature on how to get this now?

Whatever, I guess I'm just retarded then.
Mod, delete or close this.
It is well known that the hd2 is NOT getting an official wp7 upgrade. Your links are either old articles or new ones showing the one video released by cotulla showing him boot wp7, which was just from him playing around and is a proof of concept video. It will be a long time before a port is made by him if it ever is... and if it is made, it will most likely not be fully functional. Please do your research and look at dates on articles before posting misinformation.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Well its been stated: http://apcmag.com/microsoft-no-windows-phone-7-upgrade-for-windows-mobile-6x-devices.htm
They's this thing about only 3 button control for windows 7, the HD2 is capable I'm sure of running WM7 but they will NOT be an upgrade!!
wp7
We are not going to see an official upgrade but Cotulla is working on the port, which is mentioned in one of the links that you posted. We will get it just not official.

And again: read your own links and read the posts of conantroutman. The links are either old (and suggesting there is a chance) or showing a port of WP7 (by a developer).

Excellent question mate. But only you can find that out. Get starting and tell us about it.
Currently using MCCM SE v3.3 after I broke my ShubCraft build (lol whoops!).
My favourite build I've used so far was a tie between ShubCraft 2.0 dropmode and MDeeJays DesireHD. I can honestly say tho the ONLY detractor from the Desire HD build for me was the camera not working. If it had I'd still be using it today.
BlueTopia is my newest, lovin it. The animations kick ass, and mms works on T-Mo out of the box. Hyperdroid 1.7 is great too. I love havin a 16gb card, I switch between 5 or 6 builds on my card using the Exceller loader all the time
maybe a proper question will be 'which one is the most working one?'
in matter of phonecalls, 3g internet, calendars...mail, camera, playing music.
I understand that some users want the best speed and are not really into an accurate calendar or alarm.
can you please point out which of the builds have everything working fine on an average level
at least some of you should know from personal experience...
thanks
Currently I'm using MDJFroyo Sense Revolution with the latest kernel or at least the one release a few days ago. I was a DarkStone fan for the longest (the longest length of time with his build was 2 months) and wanted to try a stock build, but didn't like it cause of data isssues. So I bounced from buil to build until I saw m-deejay releasing builds every week or at least updates and thought I'd give it a try.
So far, I really like it. Love that he includes a cool theme with his builds. Aside from looks the build is very stable. With the most recent kernel, data disconnects happen less frequently, and mostly when I'm at work and can't get much of a signal anyway. Thankfully my job is upstairs from a nursing school that offers its students free wi-fi lol.
Other than that, he keeps his builds updated which is also cool. I want to try another HD build, so when I get home I'll change a few things and go from there.
As far as set up:
I'm running HSPL 2.08 or 2.08spl (i haven't updated it in awhile so I forget)
Radio 2.12
Omega XT with GTX 1.8.5 Sense Theme (awesome build)

1- This thread is from 2010, why resurrect it?
2- Your link is not working.
3- Now that most ROMs are fully functional, no need to recommend what you like or think is best. (Not that there ever was)
4- This is the HD2 section, not the S4 section. (And if by S4 you meant Sense 4, it's not even "fully" working).
You ARE late to the party. You even went to the wrong one, lol.

Please, don't bother arguing when you're wrong. This thread is irrelevant right now but you brought it up again with a broken link and no valid reason. He answered you because you BROUGHT THE DAMN THREAD UP AGAIN so of course he's going to see it on the front page of the forum and wonder why someone's reopened it. Yes, he's criticising you because of you reopening an old thread and now, since you've replied in this manner, I'm sure he has a problem with you (just as I do). He didn't earlier have any sort of personal problem, but you're just being rude. If you have the GS2 then post in the GS2 forum (or better yet, don't post anything to do with best ROM at all) but not here in the very clearly marked HD2 forum. If Marv ever does prepare a party I suspect you'd turn up three years late and uninvited
