better for battery life and speed.. - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

which is better? using NRGY's latest that puts some of the files in the ROM, or installing a barebones winmo, and putting all android files on the SD card?

It's same , SD Card will be allways running.
But other things drain battery more than card .

By reading on the description of each build you want to use. But I think there is only one kernel that supports eb on nand, it's by tytung.

they got better, much better.
and like always there are no "best builds"
i can just recommend u using a nand or even a RAM build
my current one is the Ultimate Droid 3.0 RC, but there is a new version out, i recommend trying that one
or else.. cm7, always a good choice
I´m on typhoons CM7 and it runs like a charm really fast and really good battery life (3-5mA in standby with wifi and gps on). But there are a lot of builds that you can try.
I changed my HTC HD2 to android aswell and its fast and table. So you know that to do. Flash it to android

You should try the Ultimate Droid 3.1 its pretty awesome fast, stable pretty sweet battery life also if you turn off what you don't need/use
I am thinking to flash my hd2 to android too.
Are the android roms in dutch, or only in english ?

is it really that much better than the 3.0 RC one?
Some of MIUI roms are better for battery. I used miui-star and miui-jaws

is process still the same run off sd card and hit clarett? or something like that are they still on gamesquareuk or where can i find that build?
You have the option of running it off the SD card like the good old days along side winmo. Or you can flash it to the nand memory which is how native android devices run android.
I personally use nand builds and in my experiences they are more stable and battery efficient. Check my sig for the build I use.
Go to the nand android threads and read the stickies to get the lowdown. Since you do need madglr and cwm.

Nope it's fairly straightforward, I did it last night:
1. Install MAGLDR 1.13,
2. Install Clockwork Recovery,
3. Download the rom, renamed to update.zip, stick on SD card
4. Run Clockwork Recovery and install update.zip
5. done
I'm using this one. Seems good so far
i will be securing an htc hd2 tomorrow untouched with windows still on i will definitetly chime in tomorrow as im not that advanced as far as modding phones and am a little nervous. i dont want to brick my phone
pm me old shrimp

dont be that scared, its much easier than u think
just flash magldr as described
then flash cwm as described
and the rom over cwm
get on it asap dude. DFT has really good nand android builds. i rocked a hd2 with their gingerbread and it was brilliant. very stable and didnt crash at all. the process is so easy to
If you used to use FroyoStone by DarkStone, then you should use SuperRam Froyo by Darkstone!

gonna flash soon what in you guys experience is the best full featured nand version are the gingerbread versions fully up and running or still missing certain things
Gingerbread is cool with AWD Launcher Plus and some other widgets.
Unfortunately camera quality in my case was poor so I dropped this rom.

Most of them are multilanguage so yes.

[Q] NAND or SD - Whats faster?

Hey guys,
I know that there are some threads about this topic are floating around here but I could find a thread described with a class 10 card - what is faster? installing Android on NAND or install on SD (Class 10?)
Thaanks
Robin
nand will always be faster than sd method, regardless of card speed class
The fastest is neither..ram build is the fastest
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
A RAM Build? Oo ;D
NAND is faster, besides SD Builds have lots of bugs
regards
Thanks Will continue to use my NAND Build

an sd build thatloads on and runs from ram..like the darkstone ram build or mdj gingerbread ram build
aah thanks for clarification But I think WM is required, right? Nope Ill stay with my good SD Build

Required for what?
If you delete WM , install a brand new Android Version (2.3.5 maybe with HTC Sense) you dunno need Wm anymore.
The fastest way is a NAND Rom with Apps on SD (on a fast one, like your class10 sd card).

Q. Nand vs sd

I wanted to know how slow is sd compared to nand??
The sd versions are more stable and less bugs... But will they be ridiculously slower than nand versions???

No bugs with 2.3 aosp nand roms. Nand is a lot faster than sd version + it's very stable. Try it yourself

Whoa, where are you getting that from? Neither version has any significant bugs and both are very stable

There are a lot on nand that are stable like sd..
The differences are where the new system is installed: on nand it is fast because the nand (a memory like ram) is insert into the board of the phone and has bus and cable directly connected to the cpu.. But, maybe, it can be less stable because it isn't so easy alter the nand.
Create a system for an sd is easyer than nand because is an external device and, for this, maybe slow..
I cannot give you more details on speed.. It's like the speed of copy between two sata hard disk vs usb between disk..
Did i make myself clear?

lol...thanks but all this i already know...
i am gonna flash my hd2
so i jus wanna know if sd android will be "significantly" slower than nand android? (if not then I'll keep winmo on nand and not format nand)

Hmm, not significantly slower but it will have much worse battery life. I've used ACA on SD (when I used Winmo) and Typhoon on NAND now and NAND is definitely faster but I wouldn't say significantly so.

Yes, this is also my result. First i tried Boxmax on SD. It was stable but slow. So i decided to go to Energy NAND with the same Android+Sense Version like Boxmax. The NAND Version is faster so i have fun with it.

clean, stable and fast Rom?

So once i get the phone fixed (hope ext SD autoinstall works) i wanna ofc get rid of the ugly official ginger on my phone!
What i look from a rom is:
Gingerbread or above based (2.3?)
Clean - no xxx apps and bonuses and software - as clean and light as possible (i dont use 90% of crap on official). As long as it got Market i can get all i need (dialer and market installed are basically all i need from clean install).
Ofc ext4.
Stable - not full of bugs (eg constant crashes, wifi not working etc)
Internal SD card is mounted and works (and hopefully can use internal and external together?)
And ofc performance - specially gaming optimized.
And battery usage.
Unlocked Bootloader.
Root friendly.
Aurora ICS is too unstable and problematic.
Official one is just full of junk + locked bootloader.
Also oxygen looked like internal SD isnt mounted (wasted 2gb of storage !!!).
You wont get all you want from 1 ROM IMO best custom ROM is currently (.35 kernel) elite X MIUI it has good performance and in call volume and battery life seems good too. If performance is more important than anything else CM7.2 is best but it has some very annoying bugs (battry life and in call volume). Then there is also ret4rt MIUI which has IMO best battery life but low performance (also no new GPU drivers). If you want good battery life, performance and sound I think its best to stick with stock ROM + overclocked kernel and delete all the stuff you dont want and theme it if you dont like looks. But if you really dont want to use stock then you may also try MIUI by sbasil which I think is very similar to Elite X.
And BTW you can unlock bootloader on any ROM (official too)
Just my opinion
well performance over battery life.
And ofc working internal SD - i noticed most has problems with it.
The I suggest you to try CM7.2 by geno. Internal SD is working (i think), awesome performance but battery life and in call volume arent the best and thats why is switched to elite X which seems very good too but with a bit less performance. And I suggest you to use supercharger script or RAM manager app if you want to get the most out of your phone
How about any cpu/ gfx etc driver updates for stock ginger

Since when is Aurora too unstable and problematic? I'm using it on my X5 and have had no issues. I miss the customization of CM7, but I find Aurora is just nicer to use given that it's on ICS.
Anyways went for imui.... perf is fine but the luncher is gay.... rlly... all apps on homescreen.... its a mess... and no fastboot ..o
