Right since this place has gone android crazy over the last few months, I thought I'd give it a go. Went through all the instructions, updated hspl to 2.08 updated radio to greater than 2.08. Ran android, boot screen shows all the boot up text then melts away into two lines, then....nothing (left it half hour just black screen and green flashing led). Anyway, reading though the 19900 posts on android I stumbled upon a post saying that to run android you need to flash a .50 radio not .51 What I want to know is as I am using the wwe stock 1.66 can I flash a .50 radio with no ill effects or will I have to flash a new rom as well?
If it means flashing a new rom then I'll just stick with WM as I've got my phone running nicely and haven't needed to mess about with it at all (to get it working!) for months
You can flash the Radio ROM only. As you are not using a TMOUS HD2 then there is no problem with bricking your phone.
I am currently using the 1.66WWE ROM and 2.10.50.08_2 Radio ROM.
I don't know how well this works with Android, as I like WinMo.

Ok cheers for that, will give it a go. Won't be using android as a day to day option, just want to try it out see what all the fuss is about.
Be careful: I tried THAT already (updating my radio on my 1.66-ROM Radio 2.06.51.07) to run Android but found out that all upper radios 2.08 and higher) from the radio-thread do partially not work on my HD2 (some of the basic functions Phone/WiFi/Wireless Router/HSPA etc. didn´t work anymore after upgrading).
So after flashing new radio CHECK EVERY function of radio if it´s working as before.
I had to go back to 2.06.51 to get my smooth running of my HD2 again with all Radio features working flawless.

Got to admit after flashing 2.09.51 yesterday it actually improved things, got hsdpa at home (4 bars as well) never had anything other than gprs as I live in an old quarry, lowest it has dropped to is 2bars of 3g so as far as dial up connectivity is am better off. Not had other issues with wifi, phone or messaging either, not tried bluetooth or wifi router yet but would assume that they are fine also. Obviously if things do start going ary I'll flash the original back
BTW android now boots and runs like lightining!
So I give it a last chance. Didn´t try 2.09.51 (goofed the line and thought it´s for TMOUS). Tx for the tip
Did You change rilphone.dll and if yes to which version ?

Hi djingonthenet,
Can you confirm you have flashed the radio to 2.09.51 and not 2.09.50? Any issue observed so far?
I have the same configuration as your HD2 and would like to try the Andriod but worry that the radio may cause unknow issue to my HD2, eg phone,3g, or wifi, etc.

So, When im in Android i get very poor 3g signals here in sweden and whenever the bar is on 3 or 2 it switches to 2g, and when i try to get it back to 3g it can't find an networks and stuff, it laggs up and doesnt respond, while everything else works normally, only the 3g and 2g category laggs.
If i try keep on trying to fix this the cellphone just shuts down :O
Thanks in advance
Why do people always make new treads,please post the question in the shubcraft forum
Hello, i have tryed to look up if theres thread to this but i havent found one so i would like to post this one and ask if anyone else is having the same problem?

E52 backup phone and it haves just perfect 3G(100%) at the same places where i have whit my HTC leo T8585 really bad like 1 bar or then i loose the whole connection to 3G network. is it whit the radio or is the network too busy not likely cause that nokia works just fine... and yes i would like to use data connection whit 3G for GPS navigation where its possible but the finding the 3G network where its full whit other device just eats my battery.

Hey guys,
i have constant battles with my HD2. I'm running Android not Winmobile but this is a winmobile problem. The mobile reception and logically because of that APN is also not workin properly.
Example: I'm at home and have full mobile-reception and internet is working flawlessly. One second later nothings workin... The reception display shows 4/4 lines and one second later 0/4. But i didn't move.. Same with WLAN and APN..
I tried different Radio Roms and Roms (chucky droid rom, starbase clean rom, etc..)
Same problem here.
Any ideas ?
damn... wanted to post that on HD2 General Forum, not in Android...
Can some admin pls switch this into the right one ?
thx
