So I've been using my hd2 for about 2 months now and I hate windows so I've been trying out all the android builds which I love. I'm currently using darkstone froyostone w/o sense and before this I was running his other build froyohd2..and since I'm running chuckydroidrom I don't even see windows anymore. But today I went into tmobile and I saw the vibrant and its absolutely beautiul.. very fast and android is native. So I need some input.. what do you guys think? Any pros and cons for both phones any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks!!

I have both and constantly find myself switching up.i like the vibrant for the screen clarity but the I like the hd2 for the screen size but I think once android is completely stable for the hd2 and is able to be flashed on nand it will be my daily phone and I'll probably wind up selling the vibrant.so I say keep the hd2 and wait just a little longer for a good android build

I had my HD2 for about two weeks. I tried a few android builds, and they mostly worked, but there were little quirks about them that bugged me. One didnt have bluetooth, one only seemed to work with a specific radio, etc...
I really liked the big screen of the HD2, and the metal back made it feel really sturdy, but I native android beat out that.
I like my vibrant. The back feels a little slick, but its also lighter. While the screen on the HD2 was bigger, I dont miss it much.
I'm sure as time goes on android for the HD2 will get better, so it's really a matter of if you want to wait or not.
Damn idk ill prolly just wait it out and see how far android could go on my hd2

Try the new FroyoStone Android build with Sense, it's amazing and the most stable build as of yet. I use it as my dailey OS and it works great =D
yeah im running froyostone with sense but using launcherpro with beautiful widgets.. its running great except for the fact that u cant touch on the screen freezes and i get ocassional dark blank screens
Wait it out with the HD2.
If you really want to abandon the HD2, rumors speculate an HTC Android phone equipped with a dual-core processor heading to T-Mobile in Q4. If anything, wait for that, rather than getting the Galaxy S [now].

I don't get those with my setup. I think launcherpro is what's causing the current issues in the Android builds.
hmm ill try running sense then and wait it out till q4 thx for the update

If you want more behind-the-scenes-type info (rumor or not) specifically for T-Mobile, check out TmoNews. The leaked roadmap for T-Mobile devices for the rest of the year is somewhere there.

It is a nice phone i just dont like samsung software...also the camera does not have flash...and as we all know the screen is bigger on the hd2...but the hummingbird processor that samsung has is quick then the hd2's snapdragon...it all depends on what you like. Also you have to give the devs a little more time with android on hd 2...they are almost there the hd2 will be worth it in the long run until somwthing much better will come out in a couple of months...

Hi,
I wanted to have a look at android, but there are so many out there. Which ones are most current and are most complete?
Cheers!
I'm using darkstone HD2 froyo v2.1...everything is working except the hotspots feature...they are all pretty stable...check out Gamesquare.co

You'll have to try them and eventually decide for yourself. That's far better than going by someone else's recommendation.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Thanks!
Yeah, my question (or my intention, rather) was on which are more stable
they are all different for different people. shubcraft 1.5 works for me. may not work for you.
yeah you have the ones with HTC sence, and ones with out,
im using Froyostone at the sec, working very well for me
Yup...I went for the first recommendation - without sense. Looks pretty good, but not for daily use yet
Thanks!
Try hyperdroid. I use it as my daily and have no problems.

Just go for the most recently dated build and work from there.
I can also suggest Bangsters 1.2a as it's Vanilla 2.2 and is pretty responsive and relatively bug free. But like said the easiest if no the most convenient way is to try them all, no build is perfect and each has it's own defects but from what I have seen it can range from user to user.

Yup I would agree here. Even tho my DarkStone build is not one of the newer builds, it runs great, for me at least. I've tried a number of the other builds, but haven't found a real reason for changing from what I've got going. Updating the kernel on a regular basis keeps this build going strong.
Another conditional might be which ones work with HTC Sync. This is an absolute requirement for me personally. I've only tested a few Android builds, but so far only MattC's build works with Sync for me.
Yes I'm a total noob when it comes to this.... And I really don't want to brick my phone, which is the most fully featered 2.2 Version without sense for the HD2. And can somebody please send my an idots guide. PLease PM me deatils. I mean I've done WinMo Phones but nothing like this. Thanks for the Help.

Just for you to understand, there is no answer to your question. Superman, Iron Man, and God do not have the answer to your question. It's the same question as: "What's the best fruit?"

What exactly is it you knew?
I prefer either Nexus One Froyo build from mccm (v1.0 or v1.5) or the very first Mdeejay eVo Sense build (v1). I find the mccm build to be the smoothest with the stock launcher or the new G2 launcher. The Mdeejay v1 build is the best of them all...with occasional data freezes, though. Outstanding battery if the data and wireless is fully active in WinMo.
I like HyperDroid by Pongster. I'm not a build expert, but I have tried about 4 different builds before deciding to stay with the HyperDroid/Ultimate build.
Seriously, its the ONLY build I've seen that doenst have a premature flash issue, bt issues, data connection issue, touchscreen freeze issues, etc. Every build I have tried has atleast one of those issues.
I'm fairly new to this scene but I learn quick and I was looking for a build that doesnt have issues and was stable. HyperDroid/Ultimate was for me.
It's really a matter of personal preference. Some people can deal with a premature flash, or bt connection issue. At this point, no one build is perfect. I'm having a slight problem with audio through my headphones in HyperDroid/Ultimate, but its a problem I can deal with.
So evaluate what you can and cannot live with in any one build and then ask YOURSELF "What's the Best android rom for hd2".

What is the wm Rom u are using?
I tried hyperdroid and some other build, I have bt issues. Only darkstone's froyostone doesn't give me bt issue although cam flash is premature.
I am using chuckydroid Rom.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
well....
tried almost all of them but i must say from my experience either darkstone or mccm,with hastarin r7.2.they pretty good ,reliable and very fast
I shall enlighten all and put this misery to an end!
1) mccm SE 2.5
2) Watermelon
To me the best build so far is phireMOD SkinnyEVO v1.3 (10.7.10), and I'm using the Launcher Pro. It's really a very nice build, and the only thing that doesn't work correctly is the flash, is still premature. I am fan of Mjeeday and Darkstone builds, but after some time of use, or I've a bit of SOD, or when I answer a call, it takes long to listen the other side, etc. With PhireMOD with Launcher Pro, I'm really happy, and the battery drain is very low. And with that rom I don't need to use the setCPU and Juice Defender, because the battery is enough for one entire HARD day, where my data mobile is all the time on, and BT almost. And after 13 hours I still have around 20-25% of battery.
Another thing about this build, the benchmark is really nice, always higher than 1650. And it is a constant, not like the other builds, that you do it now and you got 1300 and after 1 min you got 1700. It is really stable.
Just check it.
Regards
Rui
Please state the wm Rom that you are using.... I think wm Rom play a big part on how good the Android Rom is... mostly is abt the compatibility....

ever since he's accused of "plagiarism", he doesn't show up anymore. his threads are also deserted. what's up? is he going to jail or something?
where was he accused of "plagiarism"?
I dunno man, if I got caught ripping other people's work I'd probably peace out too.
Also, if I was falsely accused of ripping other people's work I'd probably peace out too.
So it sounds like he peaced out.

Hi there,
Does anyone know which mdj rom did he "duplicated" ??? concerning desire hd rom...
4.2 i think.it was the one with hot restart and stuff like that i think its shocking how he steals other people work and tweaks to make it his own just like everyone else steal htcs work and makes it there own.its dog eat dog on this forum amongst Devs sometimes and well he got eaten.best lets dogs lye i suppose
Looks like MDJ Froyo HD, looks kinda guilt too from the last posts in his thread, 13 differences from 1200+!?!?
U have to admit though. His desire HD build as much more stable than mdj. Mdj had bugs which mccm worked out.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
I like his work man htcpedia htc forum
He was ban because of stealing other devs work,but I think his build is very good.I have tested alot of builds and finally stuck with his "MCCM SE 3.0 final".this build is fast and amazing with scrolling speed. The battery is very good also.
See my signature.
if it's true then mccm should've named that rom "mdj modified" or something. he's careless.

Well he was definitely either careless or just plain ignorant to the rules of the site. Either way, he did what he did and when he was accused(and proven guilty), he decided to jump ship to another site where we have no jurisdiction. Sadly this other site has no intentions of working with us. Personally I'd like to see him shut down permanently after what he did, regardless of how well his plagiarized builds worked but at this point it's beyond our control.

seems you guys dont understand.. dont you really see the difference? mdj didnt make his RAM build claiming its his own. he credited darkstone all the way. btw i dont think darkstone dont care about stealing his work. where mccm was claiming its his work not giving proper credits to the real builder. you clearly have no idea how many work or knowledge is involeved in creating builds, all i can read is "give us this, give us that, i damand this and that".... this is what i call disrespect and bad attitude..
It's the best Android ROM I have used so far, I like my HD2 over my Inspire 4G running Revolution HD.

We're glad that you liked it, but it is not obligatory that it is the best for everyone .
For instance, I, myself, prefer HyperDroid over Dorimanx's ..

yes ...hyperdroid is the most stable rom i ever used ...but cuz it's out of date ...it's slow comparing new roms ....so with i little update ...it can be the best
You can update most of the ROM yourself, HyperDroid is the best hands-down. Dorimanx on the other hand is cutting edge and always uptodate, so I guess it depends what you want.
