Perfect WM and Android Combination. NO ECHO OR SOD! Updated: 8/7/10

First i want to say thanks to all the developers that got involved to make this possible. Their hard work and sleepless nights are greatly appreciated.
I tried so many combinations of ROM's and Radio's that i gave up and nearly lost hope until a friend of mine at work found the perfect combination of Windows Mobile and Android to load on the US Tmobile HD2. Maybe i should buy him lunch tomorrow .
I think many are experiencing the issues i had, soooo.... I wanted to share this information and show you all little lost sheep out there how to get to the light at the end of the tunnel.
If you want to start from scratch, meaning from the factory ROM on the phone, then do what i did and follow the instructions below in the same order i performed them. If you are savvy enough to follow along without starting from a stock ROM, then more power to you. These steps are for the dummies like me who are out there and cant follow instructions.
Again this is for the US-TMobile HD2's. I dont know that this will work for the EU HD2's. Try at your own risk.
Step 1
Install the TMO Stock ROM. Click Here
Step 2
Root your TMO Stock ROM by installing 2.08.HardSPL. Click Here
Step 3
Install Energy's "Stardard-Energy" ROM located on the US TMO forum but for your convenience.... Click Here
Step 4
Install Radio version 2.12.50.02.2. Click Here
Step 5
Copy shubCRAFT's "Android" folder to the root of your SD Card. Click Here
- (I edited the startup file to prevent the "cant access tty; job control turned off " error message, therefore this install should be plug and play.
- When the copy is complete, place the SD CARD back in your phone if not already, and run clrcad & haret from the Storage card.
- You can also use the auto boot loader .cab file on your WM rom to autoload Android. Click Here
Updated: 8/7/10
For those of you who are having issues and don't know how to modify the startup.txt file. Here is a copy of the startup.txt file without the "loop_partition=mmcblk0" command line. Click Here
Just copy the file to the Android folder and overwrite the existing one and you should be all set.
Step 6
Here is a new 1GB userdata.img download link. Click Here
The old one was giving issues with texting. If you guys want a bigger userdata file let me know. This will also fix any download issues from the Market and prevent low disk space errors when attempting to install an application from the SD card.
Update: 8/7/10
Here is a 4GB userdata.img for the ones that wanted a bigger file. Click Here

I'll have to try this. Keep having the static/echo problem no matter what radio I use. Currently I'm running ChuckyROMS and dan1j3l's Froyo build. Got one more radio to try and if that doesn't work, oh well, I'll try this combo.

As far as I remember I am using ChuckyDroid and Radio 12_50.2 and matt latest version and no echo/sod since yesterday and got about 20 hours out of battery life. Must mention I use the phone "alot" so my battery drains accordingly

Wow are you serious 20 hours ????

I'm using:
LEO_Cloudy_1.6 and Radio 2.12.50.02_2
mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense RC1.4
together with Cloudy AndroidLoader too
Working perfectly, no robotic voice

the new zimage is what kills the echo, nothing magical about it.

Frustrating!
Even with the new zimage, clean SD, I still get robo-voice. I refuse to clean out my stock TMOUS ROM / radio though...there has to be a fix that doesn't require me to do HSPL....(i own a mac...is there an easy way to do HSPL on a mac?)

U don'nt have to HSPL again to install the Radio, and neither will u lose any data, so just go ahead if an new radio will help resolving the robo-voise

Does flashing the stock tmo rom first really make a difference? I've flashed like crazy to get the best combo but haven't had the stock rom since I first flashed.
No matter what I do I'm still getting massive background noise (mic gain?) downloading energy + shubcraft now, let's see if this does it!

I can't say its perfect... it seems clear... just very low volume.. I do love how well this is all coming along!! what 2 weeks and it almost totally usable ?!?!
us tmo hd2
Radio version 2.12.50.02.2

Its not the rom but the audio driver that the rom uses. Look for robotic sound problem thread in this section for the files.

You know guys, I really gotta say this. I think its really mestup that when you try to download the "Standard-Energy Rom" they give you the option to either pay them for a fast download or suffer through their agravating super slow download that they intentionally made that way for who ever doesnt wanna pay up.
I noticed the "Affiliate Program" they have which for those of you who dont know, it just means that every time someone goes and pays for the "super fast download", there is someone behind the scene getting paid for making you pay. That someone is usually the one who provides the link to that website.
Why am I exposing this? because who ever is doing this should at least have the curtesy to let us know it is NOT free to download and HE will make money when you choose to pay, not just thinking he's fooling people to a comission- which he is.
The last time I tried downloading for free, it took 2 1/2 hours and at the end I got a little "Error" message saying there was a problem downloading and the download could not be completed. - .. as expected for not paying up right?
How do I know this, because I AM an "Affiliate Marketer". I know how this stuff works, but I dont work this way.

has anyone realized this is a emulator .....lmao

Yeah you got it, thats the only "magical" thing. With the last Radio all Echos are gone and the Bad Backround noises too.
No one must try diff ROM and Radios anymore.
I use the Original 1.66 Stock ROM and Darkstones Desire v5 (my absolute favorit) and with the latest zimage the last Soundproblems are solved.
I only wait for GPS works in the v5, coz than it is the perfect build.

Thank you for this post! Very helpful

ROMeOS has been updated to v4.17 expressly for Android Compatibility

[Q] A beginner that needs help!!

Hello all,
I have got a HTC HD2 phone with WM 6.5 T.Mobile version and the question is: Do I have to remove the current WM 6.5 that is installed on my phone in order to install Android? if yes, is there a way to backup the windows and everything installed on it including the messages and the names stored? If no, is it 100% guranteed that the WM will work perfectly with Android? Which version of Android is most stable with everything working perfectly? Also I need to know the exact tips of installing. You may laugh when I tell you that I need to install Android because there is a game being released for Android and not for WM this game is ANGRY BIRDS you have no idea how I'm glad I will be able to play it as my friend got an iphone and he doesnt want me to play it with his phone
So people, I know these are alot of questions but, all of us began this way. Thank you for understanding.
Michael

Usually these type of questions get the "do some research yourself" treatment, but i'm such a nice guy, so here i go:
No, WM stays. Android boots from SD card.
But, to get Android to boot right you have to upgrade you phone a bit. Well, a lot actually. You have to make your phone able to do other things than just stock WM. (Upgrade SPL). Change the Radio (part of the "bios"), change the WM to something better, and then at last you'll be able to use your Android.
These steps are usually done once, and then you'll be able to change your Android version easily later.
But still, it's all worth it
Good luck

The short answer to your question is 'yes', you will need to 'uninstall' WM 6.5 to use Android.
You will need to 'flash' another ROM, which will replace WM 6.5 as you know it. You can always revert back to the stock version in the future.
You might also need to flash another radio (depending on which version you have already).
There is no single 'best' version of Android right now. There are several, each being updated constantly. In broad terms, you can choose from a HTC Sense version, or a stock Android (Froyo) version.
You are asking too many questions to talk you through the process here. I am using the following:
ROM - Chuckydroid
Radio - 2.12.50.xx
Android - Bangsters V1.3
You will need to search and learn if you wish to progress.
One word of advice - read and follow all instructions carefully!

Hey
You are speaking mysteries guys
Here are the details of my OS
OS version: 5.2.21889
ROM version: 2.10.531.1
RADIO version: 2.08.50.08_2
What should I do? Another question: Isn't the OS WM I have a registered version from Microsoft? Or it doesn't matter I can install any version?
Another thing, I did try searching and asking a lot of questions to know the answers I'm asking about it here. But the thing is that people talk about an advanced things and I need to start from the beginning.
Thanks guys for being patience with me, I really appreciate it.
Michael

I will follow this one... I am still trying to get anything. Tried Froyo's on stock by just putting it on the SD card... but it says: Jumping to kernal, so that wont work really well.
Maybe someone could write a clear How-To to just get a Android instal.. I am very curious.

Don't think you guys will get massive amounts if help in here but firstly search for hspl read how to install it, read all steps carefully there is a full step by step guide, then you need to upgrade to latest radio again just search on xda and you will find s step by step guide, then you will need to update the windows mobile Rom process is same as installing a new radio.
Then you will need to download an android build, hyperdroid is very stable,
Android runs purely is your SD card like a virtual machine on your pc,
Spend an hour or two reading,
It's not really a complicated process once you've read around a bit

Wow all these threads asking the same questions. All these members asking us to break it down Barney style!
Look none of this stuff is hard!
They have done most of the hard work for you. All you have to do is read the instructions on the forums!
You don't need Barney to read it to you. You dont need instructions in the form of a cat in the hat book.
I am challenging you to research for yourself!
Give me a honest effort and if that doesn't work you can private message me! But you had better done your home work!
Even if I don't use the rom I read the threads. I follow dcordes,shu8i, cotulla,cyanogen and anyone else with info on twitter. I read most if not all the threads. I am not smart. So if I can do it you can too.
Forgive me for being candid I just felt it needed to be said!

Guys, is it alright if i ask a question?
Why is it not right if we run stock rom with froyostone and radio 12?

Some say it causes problems with the audio. I say bull but I am not running stock winmo. I've always used energy roms. And haven't had a problem!

I am using Froyostone builds on my stock 1.66 WWE ROM.
All i did to get android running is a new HSPL and a compatible radio.
I have never flashed any custom/cooked ROM on my device.
It runs smoothly on the stock rom and have had no major issues at all..!!
All the best!

Need some help with an Andoird build for my dad.

Hi
First off all I want to say: I can probably find everything here in the forum but I'll spend hours and hours reading and most off the time I'll read useless info that I don't need so if you have the knowledge and it just takes 5 minutes to share it please help me out I'll be thankful.
I myself have a HTC legend and have read LOTS off posts before finally rooting and flashing custom roms. Now my dad has asked me if I could help him to get android on his HD2.
He needs to be able to sync his agenda with outlook (for work (Calendar and contacts) I read something about HTC sync should be working on newer kernels is it included in some builds then?), and have a stable build (its not a ROM if I'm correct?) one that he could use for daily use. Don't need anything too special (not even root but its not a problem if it does have root access)
So I've started reading around in the development section and from what I read I don't need to root or flash anything, just extract a zip to the SD and name it Android. Is that correct? (then why do you have special android roms?)
So is there someone who can link me to a good stable (no OC kernels and stuff please) Android Build and tell me if there are known bugs with HD2 builds that don't get mentioned in those threats because they are known as general knowledge.
Thanks in advance
If I could ever help you back with HTC legend problem or something I'll gladly do it for you.

Jonas (sorry for the pour English it's not my main language)
I'm reading topics and If I find answers I'll update this but please if you have the knowledge to help me in a few minutes PLEASE do so.

Never mind found this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782930
and solved most of my questions looks like its not as fully operating as I thought :s.
So It's not just as easy as unzipping and renaming that would have been too easy.

It isn't very complicated to run android on the HD2. I don't know what feature you suspect isn't working that scared you from attempting. Every feature I could want is working. You also don't need to sacrifice windows mobile if you try android. Give it a shot and post again if you have trouble.

Problem is that I need to root and flash other wm Rom if I want everything to work as it should. Or isn't that really necessary? I'll just try a build and see what it does. Thx for th reply

if you have to hspl your hd2 depends on your stock radio rom version. it should be a newer one like 2.10 or 2.12 to avoid most issues with android. flashing another winmo rom is only necessary if you have robot voice and/or faster playback of music (just to mention 2 problems)... you don't have anything to loose if you try android from stock hd2. if it's not working fine, you may think of flashing a new radio and/or rom!

So if I unzip the file I can dowload here put it into android folder in the root of my SD, I'm good to go? What about that kernel do I need to flash it??

if he uses it for work then i'd suggest laying off android for now

he could still use the WM? It's just like a program no? So by just removing the folder it would be back to normal?

You basically reboot the phone and it goes back to wmo. Its almost like running a live linux cd...

When you run HaRet Android takes over the phone. When you reboot it will come back to WinMo. Then you run HaRet again and you back in Android. And so on. WinMo 'lives' on the phone, Android on sd.

So the kernel they are talking about is a fake kernel? (not flashed to the actual ROM)
So if anything goes wrong at first boot with the android I can just pull out the battery without bricking the phone?

Its not a fake kernel...it is real but it resides on the sd card so your original wmo stuff will still be there in case you ever need to use wmo again.

You s should start your own thread. There are many different unlock so specify which one you're after, sim unlock? This section is only for android so if you need help on something else, post it in the hd2 general section, not here. Unless it is android related, you won't find help here.

Ok so if I install this:

I can just remove the file on the SD when it doesn't work like we want it too and everything will be back to normal right?

You are correct.
If it doesnt work for you just erase the android folder. I would recommend flashing hard spl, and changing your radio to 2.12.50.02_2. Then load the hyperdroid 1.6 rom. You will have the best luck with that probably without having to change anything in winmo.

I'd recommend using a spare SD card. When you run Android it creates a ton of folders on it, so it's easier to have a dedicated one than to try and delete everything later (if he decides not to stick with Android).
Also, I read through the thread and couldn't see anywhere... did you tell us what radio is on the HD2? It needs to be (I believe) 2.08 or higher, and it's VERY recommended to have a 2.x.50 and not a 2.x.51 radio.

If you flash a 2.x.51 radio on a t-mobile US HD2 you will brick it. Try flashing radio 2.12.50.02_2

Yeah dno the radio version or the bootloader version.
Do i need root to see that?? Is it just booting while pressing volume down to get the bootloader and the info I need?
Also I read that the HyperDroidV1.6 is overclocked and undervolted and I drather not do that. Just want it as stable as can be. (I know my overclocked legend is stable but if he has a really crappy processor,..)
BTW: I know what overclocking does but what's good about undervolting?? better batterylife?
I think I'll just give this a try this weekend (when my dad (and his phone xD)are home)

I'm assuming undervolting is for better battery life, but have never bothered with it myself. Just have a read of the most popular Android builds to see which you think will work for you. I can recommend FroyoStone Sense v3.1, but I would because that's what I use!
It's so easy to try the different builds that it's no big deal if you play with one and don't like it, so don't be shy - give em all a go if that's what it takes!

Need HELP! Need step by step instructions to get Android on my phone!

Alright, so I bought a used HD2 for $150 today and gave my fiancee my rooted Galaxy S running Bionix 2.2. Now I have this Windows 6.5 phone and no clue how to get it to run Android.
I have looked across the forums and all it does it make my head begin to smoke, lol. I am completely and utterly lost. I'd like to be able to boot into the multiple OS's, Android (preferably the HyperDroid ROM), Win7, and whatever the main third one is, and get that cool "Resistance is Futile" boot screen.
Right now though, I am reading about MAGLDR and stuff and it's saying I need radio and this and that and I have no clue what its talking about, nor any of the other stuff. I am quite surprised I was even able to root and ROM my Galaxy S, though I used a one click root and the ROM was a simple install.
Please help a daft idiot who is in dire need of some Android, lol.
EDIT:
Read this on the tmobile forum. I know nothing about radios, but I like the sound of the improved reception and battery life.
You will need to go to the XDA Developers website and find the ROM Development section. There are many to choose from. I use the Energy Sense with Cookie Classic and GTX ROM using the Froyo Sense 3.1 build. Also search for the thread on increasing the battery life. Changing the registry line code made a world of difference for me. Now I can easily have my HD2 in standby mode with auto sync and WiFi on for two days on one charge with light use. I am now using the Android 2.2 build as my daily OS. I am currently using radio 2.14.50.04 and previously had 2.12.50.02. Battery life on the newer radio for me is better when the phone is in use, about the same when not in use but the cell reception is much better than before.

Thanks man!
Now, if I use that method to get Android on my phone, will I later be able to have it dual boot with Win7, or triple boot with Win7 and Ubuntu?

It's not possible to 'thriple boot'.
Basically these are the steps you need:
Flash HSPL 2.08 on your HD2.
Flash the newest radio (2.15.50.14).
Flash MAGLDR.
Just look around for the links. They're all in the stickies anyway.
After that you csn flash WP7 to NAND and Android to the SD Card so you can dual-boot both. That's basically it.
Also, look on YouTube, there are handy guides on there.

I read on these very forums that its possible to triple boot, all the way up to quintuple boot. Someone made different splash screens for all the different boot OS's.
But thanks for the help though, I'll at least have Android soon enough.

If as u say "Triple or Quintuple boot" means running either WP7 or WinMo 6.5 exclusively as a base, then running multiple builds of android "SD style" ? Then yeah u could do dat....But u can't have both WP7 & WinMo 6.5 on d same device as they both need exclusive storage in d same memory location....hweva if d above has been made possible? then pls do reply adding d link of such a post as i'm curious as 2 how it was pulled off.

No sorry. It's not possible. What's possible is to do is to boot WM and Ubuntu, WM and Android, WM and MeeGo (not yet released), WP7 and Android and possibly Android/WP7 and Ubuntu. Not too sure if you can do the last one. It's possible to have four OS' on the HD2, but not at the same time so it's not really 'triple booting' or 'quadruple booting' as you can only have two running at the same time.
No point in trying to contradict me dude.
Oh and btw that bootscreen you just flash from HSPL. Somebody could make one with an Apple logo, that doesn't mean it can run iOS.

Got it, running bluetopia now, you guys are awesome.
EDIT: NVM, got everything I needed, thanks all.

T9193 telstra hd2 for android

Hello guys, iv'e been tossing it up if i should install wp7 or android on my phone and i've decided to go with android. The closest thing i've done like this is hacking a psp. I just want a sd install at the moment. Running the t9193 model i don't want to lose the reception i get with it. is their a good tutorial specifically for this model?

just use the search option of this forum, there's plenty of tut's available, you also might check youtube as there are lots of tutorials there
good luck

Can someone please help me, i've used the search option, google youtube and i am still at a loss here, i honestly can't believe how hard this has been. I've not ever hacked my hd2 or any mobile for that matter. I am unfamiliar with any programs used. To my understanding their are two ways of installing Android on the hd2, sd card method and the nand method. i simply want to install through the sd method so i can try out Android and see if it's worth going Nand. I have had unbelievable bad luck at finding a complete tutorial for a 100% noob at this. If someone could post a link to one or even a place for me to get started and learn what to do would be of great help.

It's easy! Just go to the sub-form "HD2 Android Development" and choose your build! Usually on the first page is a introduction on the build itself, what it can do, what it cant etc etc. Then once you're happy with the one you choose, download it, extract the archive, drag the extracted Android folder to the root of your SD card.(i.e D:\)Then on Windows Mobile, use the file explorer and navigate to the Android Folder. Then Press Clrcad.exe once (nothing will happen but make sure you click it) and then press Haret.exe and it should start booting into Android. Now from here you just have to wait about 10-15 min for Android to make a new Data.img and get everything set up. Any problems from there you're going to have to ask the developer of the build you choose.

Best Rom?
What do you guys think would be the best SD rom for this model or best SD rom in general?

Try installing different ROM's and you will choose yourself, which ROM is the best for you

Do you want a sense Rom or a senseless Rom?
Try it,its so easy to try SD builds and it Wong ARM your phone..

Sorry but its not really hard to download a file and put them on the root of your SD card now, is it? You WON'T brick your phone doing this.
