Will the EVO 4G hardware be close enough to the HD2 for it to help the Android on HTC project to put Android on the HD2? Any thoughts?

indeed thats the question we are all waiting for the answer to..
lets hope it helps..
An interesting concept, there are those that are asking if Windows Phone7 is going to work with the HTC HD2 as well. Be nice if we could choose either. The HD2 is a lovely piece of kit.
when is the evo actually out? nobody got a whiff of a leaked rom?
got an hd2 myself, would love to get android

Joke you did get, much funny it was.
Complete my goal is
May the force be with you
I'm not so sure about this....
With the Evo not coming to UK waters and no other screen size planned this side of the pond the ROM on the HD2 may well be the only answer.
However, lets not forget.. the Evo has a lot inside which will be different to the HD2 and these short comings won't make the HD2 an Evo in disguise.
It may end up being a sheep in wolf's clothing.
I don't think you'll see it because of driver issues but if enough people want it anything is possible.

Tell that to Winterboard and AndroidLock. But yes, theming isn't supported natively.
However the iPhone port of Android is an actual native port, loaded using OpeniBoot, a custom "iBoot"-style bootloader. And you thought the HTCSPL system was tricky...

Belated, but May the Fourth be with you.
I find it quite unlikely. Developers are still trying to get Android EMULATED, not installed, on the Touch Pro, and that version still suffers from poor battery life and frequent errors.
You can't just drag and drop ROMS from completely different operating systems onto different phones; otherwise, all phones would be sold without an OS installed.
The two phones may be similar in regards to features, but the insides are completely different. For example, the Evo has a maXTouch sensor, while the HD2 does not. So, while you may be able to get Android emulated on the HD2, it doesn't look like it's going to be very possible to transform it into an Evo by giving it the latter's ROM.

That's very large and it has new features that haven't been seen just yet, I'm considering this phone if it comes out before august and has good specs. I keep hearing it will have more than 600mhz cpu and maybe 384+MB Ram...

might have stick some on data
going to be easier to fit on NoneDanger than Danger
even a g1 can probably fit most, if not all the system files onto the internal memory, user apps and dalvik-cache would defiantly need to be a2sd

I think this phone maybe a good phone... And T-Mobile made a good decision to not include live wallpapers because Sense + Livewallpapers = Tremendous lag... If the phone comes out like the hardware and software described i am certainly buying it

Live wallpapers isn't that good. Just waste battery and makes the system slower but it is good eye candy and great to show off the phone. The phone has a decent amount of RAM (512 mb) so once this phone gets rooted someone can enable LW.

Live wallpaper is not available on 2.1 with Sense UI which the MyTouch Slide seems to be running... not T-Mobile's fault.
Plus like UberMario said, it's not all that good and kills your bat life even on the Nexus One.

yeah i remember that. same happened with damage, or something similar.
Hate to break it to you guys, but he ain't coming back to XDA. And he ain't releasing anything he does build...at least not under his own name.
I don't want to be blunt, but give it up.
Until this forum grows up about 25 years...at least as far as mentality is concerned, we won't see him producing anything publicly again. Even then, at this point in time he has been way to jaded to care. Either that or he has bought an EVO.
Dude is smart, it's ashame it was ruined for the community as a whole. That Gumbo ROM was the ****.

awesome, good to know he is still developing.
gbhil still owns a hero
He's very much active at Android Central. In fact, he released a 2.1 with his own custom kernel. Im using it now and its ****ing FAST!
http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-hero-roms-hacks/9522-sprint-2-1-leak.html
Unfortunately, good as he is, he can't do anything with the functional kernel for 2.1..it's .29 and has not been released (or even leaked as far as I know, or we'd have much more customized ROMs).
The guy's amazing, no doubt about it. But as far as customizing kernels he can only deal with what he has to work with.
DirtyShroomz said:

Kernels are the operating systems themselves. In Android, the core operating system is Linux. A kernel controls all low-level operations of the device, whether it is a computer or a phone. Without a kernel, you have a paperweight.
Even Windows has a kernel (in NT, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008 and 7 it is NT Kernel...for 95, 98 and Me, it the 9x kernel).
In MacOS X, the kernel is Darwin (based on BSD).

I seriously enjoy your posts.
Now for the OP. The reason why the RAMhack isn't recommended is because it takes away from the graphics. 2.1 and higher use these graphics alot more compared to 1.6 and below. So if you used the ramhack on a 2.1, your phone will run like dog ****. As it has been stated a little bit of research would have told you this. Although not recommended, it is possible.
no ram hack for 2.1/2/2, use fr custom mtd patch. you'll have more space than ever.

If (s)he says "not recommended," and the OP does it thinking (s)he is special and nothing bad can happen to their phone, then coming back here and raging because "it's no workin right11!11!1one!11eleventy," then a little lie is best.
Honestly, and I know this is off-topic, but just get Super-D. You're running a G1 (I hope, since you're in this forum), and just because it CAN run 2.x, doesn't mean it should. Plus, you'll save a lot of hair from being pulled out cause you won't have to wait six years for the G1 to respond to hitting the home button.

Knowing that this person does NOT have the technical understanding to implement it (requires patching and compiling a kernel), it makes no difference. If this person *COULD* do that, then that person will come back and we have our daily required COMEDY and get the opportunity to hand out "I told you so"'s. Either possibility, all is good.
Instead of that, YOU and ZEP decided to come in here with your foul handed insults and lies. Do you really believe that that is better? You could have led that person on for a good laugh, or sensibly explained the REASON. No, you decided to take the 3rd option and make a complete ass out of yourself and do whatever you possibly could to create an environment of unfriendliness.

In this case, the lie is better than the truth, and I'd REALLY love to see the insults I wrote.
Do you really believe the person would have a laugh out of having their phone running extremely slow? And you're halfway right, I took the third option and instead of making a complete ass of myself, which you seem to have down to a science, I gave the person another choice they could use to better their phone.

REPEAT: GET LOST [email protected]@HOLE and DONT COME BACK!
Everyone is talking that ramhack will eat graphics... but I personally don't give f**k about graphics - I prefer having working phone instead of some godd**n graphics!
In 1.6 times I used to normally take calls while MyTrack was recording, now I can't.
In 1.6 once I've stopped with 1200h of uptime. Now I have to reboot every 24h.
In 2.1/2.2 even market is running out of memory...
Yeah, I can go back to 1.6 but I don't want to leave all new CM features (yup, CM features, not Android features)... It seems like all thinking-of-g1-users-developers are gone to these "awesome, great'n'shining new phones"... Blah.
BTW. What happened with optimalization in android?! Are these assh***es at google trying to force us to buy new hardware? I don't want to change my G1, it's IMO still good piece of hardware.

CM5/6 won't boot correctly w/o graphics that is the real issue (you can go to the pre-cm5 eclair's to get a rom with ram hack included.
However there appears to be ram to be had (without loosing graphics) ..
1MB that is lost can be reclaimed with this patch: http://github.com/ezterry/kernel-biff-testing/commit/0af805ea0e6e769e441ef2e554861fd6b4b5b3ba

Mem: [b]97700[/b] 94496 3204 0 320
after:
ezBiffTestKernel20101017-ebi0_S.zip(MD5: 4367fe0af2ba87f0d5b4d985f5be3360)
(built from the commit linked for the patch)
Code:
total used free shared buffers
Mem: [b]98708[/b] 28068 70640 0 348
(this works but isn't that well tested so use at your own risk.. also the extra MB will only work on ebi0 dreams; ebi0 magics will have the usual amount of ram as the patch doesn't include sapphire at this point in time)
(@lbcoder: this is effectively that 1 extra MB on ebi1.. there is a mess in the memory layout on these devices)
There seems to be more unclaimed ram (up to 8MB) but its bit harder to get at.. The new radio for the magic may help extract even more (it boots on the dream but has some issues).. So there is hope for a more efficient system (just not the "ram hack")

That is correct, but strangely all the backlighting of the buttons etc worked out of the box, buttons it is easy to fix if you want.
Just a little test for fun nothing else, also saw that there was support for mdpi so theoretically it could be working on Hero with some manual intervention.
Another thing to, boot up without problems

Yes but hardly anything is working! Even the Nexus one has no audio,wifi,bluetooth,calls!
Yes, it is foolish to ask for a ROM that's meant to run on tablets to be made for phones. But I never have never said and never will say no to a new ROM...

Yes it's going to run like ass and our screens won't do any good either.
But... as always, I'm eager to see what crazy stuff the ROM-people come up with.
but the sdk version includes some feature of switching from tablet to mobile mode by simply changing resolution... they won't have included it if it wasn't meant to be run on mobiles, and in 3.1, mobile (2.x) and tablet (3.0) development lines shall be joined (says wikipedia lol). moreover, lots of people out here said it would be impossible to run 2.2 and 2.3 on hero, and right now i'm looking at my rooted android 2.3 hero which is incredibly smooth and stable (way better than with stock os). so why shouldn't it be possible? ele just said even backlight of the buttons worked out of the box, which was not case in 2.x. i'm still believing in our developers (although i can't code well enough to support them ) and i'm sure they'll do some magic

Do you really use wikipedia for truths? Anyone can add to Wiki?!
no i don't... i just think it sounds possible... otherwise, there would be two future development lines which the consequence would be that there were VERY different features depending where more / the better devs work on lol^^
i didn't claim it was the absolute truth, otherwise i wouldn't have explicitly said it came from wiki ...
