In my opinion, Fresh Rom 2.0d followed by DarchLegend.
Ill put my hat in Fresh's corner. I used damage's rom as well. You cant really go wrong with either.
I've tried DC 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, and 2.07.2 and each one becomes unusably slow after just a couple of hours. I don't know why. I would literally wait 10 seconds for the Settings menu to show up.
I switched to Fresh this morning and so far it's running well. Not as well as DC 1.0 did (I have no idea why the Eris ROM is so much faster) but well.
I've been using DarchLegend for a while now, and it is by far my favorite. Especially with visual voicemail working in the latest release, it is a very solid rom. But you just have to try them. Make a nandroid backup, then just start wiping and flashing like crazy
im trying to download it but it says could not be saved, because the source file could not be read. contact server or admin why is this
honestly, none of the current 2.1 roms cut it for me because of several issues including the audio loss. if you want a 100% working/stable/fast rom go with pancake 1.5.
I'd say fresh's feels the most stable
I do have a place in my heart for darch's AOSP so I am going to say that's my favorite, hopefully he gets that update out soon.

It's an issue with your computer. You don't have to post in every unrelated thread about it.

I had more issues on 1.5 than I ever have on 2.1 (especially DarchLegend like I mentioned above)

lol thank you im just trying to get this installed i been anticipating forever to get a rom and now i rooted it and i want to go all the way lol im going to restart
Right now I would have to say Fresh then Damageless. I find myself using both more than all other dev's ROMs but Fresh's ROMs always seem to give me the least hassle and run the smoothest. I love trying them all out though. I am addicted to flashing ROMs and modding my phone.

Not everyone experienced the audio loss issue. To the OP, just do a nand backup and try them all out.

My main issue with all the 2.1 roms is the battery life..it flat out sucks.
I'll plug my phone in and check it about every hour and see its gained about 5% battery life. Yay! If I can turn my phone on and the battery loses 2% while im looking at it, its useless to me.
I'm running Pancake 0.1 with Sense and even on heavy use I get easily 20+ hours out of it. Yesterday I unplugged my phone at 8 in the morning and I sit here at 4pm the next day with 5% battery left. On a smartphone? WOW!
Time to plug it in!
man fresh rom has so many problems keep gettin force close apps audio problem doesnt ring and hate the thing when i make a call i feel vibration
ive never had any problems with any of fresh's roms most stable by far! ive been using darchlegend for the past week, and i love the new widgets no problems at all except my 5.0 doesnt have vvm i havent upgraded to 5.0.5 yet.
hey u live in my area im in miami .. but yea i put it on and i did the wipe i keep getting error that says force close things also i couldnt hear my ringer .... im trying the [ROM](1ST with all recent fixxes built into one rom)DamageR_2.7 but do i suppose to update my radio??? ima noob
my votes for regaw. Been stable for me no problems
guys/gals do not upgrade you HD2 with a new software, it make it instable... many people have been reported issues with the phone, that they never had before.... so do yourself a favor don't do it! i did it and now i can listen to music it will show the tittle but it wont play it.. any advice?? thanks
If you have only just upgraded the software and you have a lot of songs, the song wont play untill it fully indexes all the files, give it some time and it will work.
Flash a custom rom for better stability
Give some details like witch ROM version causing this problems.
i did the software upgrade from t-mo usa

rom: 2.13.531.1 os version: 5.2.21892
Where you find that version? I have latest ROM 1.66 WWE for Europe. I know is newer - 1.72.xxx but for Taiwan. Maybe your rom is not official?
he's talking about the US tmobile ROM that was pulled for not working.
The only problem I've got is the on screen phone buttons won't work during a phone call... real pain no pressing one!
Tap & slide makes the screen buttons work! SOOO... I have no problems now! I understand there are problems if you have purchased one of the preloaded games. However, they do warn you ahead of time.
official from t-mo usa. they just pull it off from the web site,

Well I can honestly say that I have had absolutely no problems with this update! I have read all the stories about issues with the 2.13 update like weaker signal and screen sensitivity but everything couldn't be better! Screen works great if not better. Signal has somewhat improved. I used too have a problem with the native music player but now it works perfectly!
This update couldn't have come at a better time cause I was near returning this phone. The one thing i hated about this phone was that the swype didn't work the way i thought it would. It was actually one of the reasons i wanted to get it! It's so much better now, that I have written this whole reply on my hd2 using swype!
So i guess it could be device dependent or maybe it could be a bad download that you got. Try to download it again or from another source. I got mine here on xda but i forgot from which thread! Well i hope you get it ironed out cause the HD2 is a really great phone with so much potential!
i just bought my phone a week ago and i came with rom: 2.13.531.1 os version: 5.2.21892. and i cant even make it a day without the battery dying. what can i do to run longer? and the sms seems to lag just a lil bit.

I'm sorry you're having problems! I've had an opposite experience - better battery and more stable. Check the forum for battery saving advice... the best of which is turn off automatic backlight!
Mine got more stable as well with the update, my battery lasted about a day of pretty good usage so I wont complain. Light usage is about a day and a half / 2 days tops.
My only complaint is the less sensitive screen.
well i read that an update got pulled about a week ago and thats when i got my phone, but i talked to tmobile and they said they have put it back up so im goin to update as soon as i get a chance.
only reason it was pulled from the official upgrade site was lack of bandwidth....it's back up now and for those of you who are running stock roms, i HIGHLY suggest upgrading it will increase the device stability considerably, also it will fix some reception issues. overall highly recommended.
You Know... they ought to change the name of this thread.
I see there are countless android builds/roms..
I just wanna know wich one is the most stable/best to use on HD2
..just want a simpe android build

Be nice
Because no matter how much we complain it will still happen and you know it.
No need to stress yourself over it.
As stated in previous post, Different members have different needs. Different builds have different flaws. They say the Desire hd beta 2 is fantastic but the camera doesnt work.
I have tried most of the other builds and for some reason I always end up reverting to shubcraft 1.5
While it may be time consuming you should test these builds out for yourself.
This is a development based community and your constructive feed back is vital to everyone. Because they dont have a hired beta team we do the beta testing and provide feedback. If testing seems like to much work then you should probably wait it out.
I am hoping to buy a HTC HD2 Tmobile tomorrow and I was wondering what does TMOUS mean and will a run of the mill HD2 be able to run Android or do I need a unbranded version or something?
Thanks!
the tmo HD2 is better than EU version, it has 1024ROM
you will most likely need to HSPL, change radio and ROM. (winmo)
then pick your android ROM, HTCCLay has a rom on HD2 as well. you should like it.
just look around, and search you will find all the answers you need....
and thank you for posting this in general.
hey
tmous...is (t mo)bile...(us)
i have a tmobile hd2. I am now running the darkstone 3. Loaded it today. YOU NEED TO ENTER A CELL CARRIER for mobile data. APN is epic.tmobile.com. This one the flash is off on the camera, weird delay, but BT works, in car so far and headphones. Haven't tried the tethering and usb tethering.
i ran a darkstone 2.6 i think for two weeks. Locked up ALOT on 3g/edge changes and no power/charge led light. It would seriously lock up with changing towers. Also very very slow with satellites. You need a fair amount of software patches work around, and its only pretty good. Usb tether worked. Bluetooth worked for music/car and phone. Charge lights did not. Camera worked with flash. Still loved it, just the app choices alone make it the lock ups worth it in my opinion.
Just testing the darkstone 3, and seems fine. Rapid Location/gps/sattelites. Phone does not seem to hang or lock up with preliminary testing from 3g to edge. Will test it more tomorrow as i drive thru about multiple towers and will bt music to car, call someone, and text at same time. the 3g speed is much quicker than the 2.6 darkstone.
just check which android you are using. Its hard to find HTC sync to sync with outlook, but you can find it on the web.
Be warned....android changes contacts from last name first to first name last, and stuff......there will be major changes once you do change to android if you are seriously connected to outlook. But livable, taking time to adjust, android does not have all the categories and recurrances and stuff.
edit: yep i downloaded a stripped Winmo, and am running android off the sd card. Look for one with radio upgrade.

I was able with Tmobile HD2 and completely STOCK OS, Radio, and all that - to get most of the builds to work on it easily. I currently have FRG83 on it - scores over 1830 on Quadrant...

i've been using android on my tmous hd2 for about 3 months, and it's incredible. i was ready to toss the hd2 before trying android. i've only tried the one android build, but since i havn't had ANY problems with it, i figured why change it over and over? i've never had any problems with constant freezes or anything, im happier than a pig in ****. i've only had to remove the battery because of a freeze up maybe 5 times since i've had it, with winmo i'd do that up to 5 times a day.
just read up and educate yourself about what you're doing. don't rush into flashing and etc if you have never done it. read everything posted about it in the stickies and you'll be a happy man.
i'm using:
schubcraft 1.5 android (only complaint is data drops for a min or two here or there)
core cell evo 3.0 windows rom (only winmo rom i've used, but i'd imagine it's one of the best, and it doesn't give me trouble with android like other builds)
radio 2.14.50
seriously, just read up on these forums, xda is an incredible place for our phones
hey all,
As all have seen in the forums, there is a beta of mango which is already running on our HD2's.
My question is:
Is it really worth to flash now or should we wait for later??
Which bugs have been registered with our devices until now?
Are they serious or only small bugs??
Thx in advance
I have noticed that several apps do not work properly on Mango. Either lagging or crashing. I reverted to nodo..
If you want to do some experiments then flash Mango now. If you need stable good work without waiting next unexpected reboot use Yuki V5.
A lot of bugs from small to big in Mango now .....
i think it's not the right place to open this thread, but, you have to try it
it has A LOT of bugs, everywhere.. in IE9, apps, etc etc etc
you can call and write sms, you have only 5 lenguages, and, not all apps work, so, if you need a stable phone, i adviced you to change to mango even if it works normally in phone functions
if you want to try the new speed, right, you can come back, sure!
so, simply you have to try if the bugs isn't big issues for you
I'm using Mango and am amazed how well it works. I encountered one real bug so far, in IE9. It doesn't seem to like Edge data networks. One other semi-bug is sometimes the links in the XDA website don't work...maybe it's just super slow loading, though.
Otherwise, all that I've tried so far works splendidly. Last night I used the Bluetooth to connect to a BT shelf speaker and it worked without a fault.
I can't say how it might work on a Euro HD2, but my T-Mobile US HD2 loves it. I also think Mango might handle video response differently for producing colors because the color reproduction on my HD2 running Mango is fantastic. I compared the display to my Focus, which runs Super AMOLED display and they are almost identical in color and the HD2 looks cleaner, crisper and has better white production than the Focus.
If you have a US HD2, go for it. I'm keeping mine because I like that much.
I have TMOUS. I did two attempts to flash this very green Mango, but couldn't live with it well. When I flashed and used mango i tell myself it is just small problem soon will be OK... bug... then another bug.... then during phone book loading to blueant reboot.... another reboot.... then apps don't work... so many more... So i can say my phone absolutly doesn't like Green Mango.
I finaly say - No can't live with it when perfectly working in all aspects NODO present. Went back to V5 NODO and so happy now again!!! But will wait of course final mango.
DO NOT FLASH HD2 MANGO!
Not worth it at all. It's all way to buggy and slow. It's almost like when android was first discovered onto our Leo devices- slow and cruddy but definitely has a future!
Thx for your feedback guys
I will not flash it, will wait for the final version
Have a nice weekend!!

Good choice. It was fun to experiment with, just to check it out. But as others have said it's waaaaayyy too buggy. 3rd party apps don't work, even some official apps like ebay don't work. Proximity sensor in-call doesn't work, so lots of hanging up or putting people on hold with cheeks, lol. IE9 is horrible in this build. Only Facebook integration works in the OS, etc. But I can tell you when it is done & we get a fully functional mango rom, it will be amazing!!!

Hmmm...you maybe should try the one from elfinlazz. It works splendidly and I just checked the PS and it worked like normal WP7. I did check the eBay app and couldn't get it to work. But it seems this elfinlazz ROM is closer to an actual WP7 than any of them.

I'll check, but it's never given me issues with any other WP7 roms. And I also have the class 4 sandisk 16 gb. But now that I'm back on Yuki's NoDo, it's running perfect again. Appreciate the help though.

I gotta agree. Mine works excellently and after doing the camera trick, battery life is much, much better. This is a ROM I want to make permanent.

Wish I had that kind of luck with the battery! Without any use it would last around 3 hours. With average use I'd get an hour of battery. Tried the cam trick & changing radio, but nothing wild improve it for me. Guess it's luck of the draw when it comes to battery & stability with the green mango roms. Still it does have some awesome new features. Can't wait for a ripe one.
