I use to have an iphone, than I switched to the HTC Magic running android and this will be my first WINMO phone.
My question is, whats the difference between the tmobile version of this phone compared to the other versions?
Do you guys reccomend WINMO or Android? is there any stable android roms for the hd2?
Mines stable. Even more if you disable the G-Sensor.
Who says you can't have both? I got an Energy WM Rom and running Bangsters V1.2a Android build.
Id rather just stick to one. In your opinion do you think Android or WinMO is better for this device?
well you really dont have a choice. There is currently no way to flash to NAND so WINMO will stay as the main OS on the phone but as was mentioned before you can run Android 2.2 from your SD card but the experience isnt really like having a true android phone. Development has come a long way but I still suspect we are about another month away from a completely stable,,no bugs, fully compatible ROM. Heck maybe in a month we will have access to NAND. As for ROM to use in WinMo its really up to you and there are alot of great ones out there. Just do some research and find which on suits your needs.
make you a deal. how about some free help, free of charge.
depends on what you are looking for. if you take the time to configure your phone correctly, you can have an extremely fast and reliable winmo device. i have altered my set up almost every possible way and i cant think of anything faster and more solid than this phone with sense diabled and using a lean custom rom.
i also occasionally run android, but more for fun. it works but it isnt nearly as reliable as winmo, currently.
what help do you need?

(you're welcome).
Damn I guess Ill stick to Win Mo in the meantime, I just dont like how you cant multi task as well.
What radio config do you reccomend?
I have been looking at energy's Max Sense UI and Elegancia's Max Sense UI.
Any suggestions/advices?

i recommend looking at my signature, thats what i run and it aint changing anytime soon.
now it is one week since magldr was released, thanks to DFT.
it was like the end of the year gift to us, we were very happy (and we still happy) because it really bring our HD2 to life again, one day before the release of MAGLDR i was thinking of replacing it with Desire because and that because SD/RAM builds was not stable and even if it is stable it will not last more than one month before start giving FCs etc...
i opened this thread (i hope it is in the correct section, and if it is not i am sorry about that MODs will move it) to share our opinions about nand roms, is it stable as we were expect, are you happy with it or not, if no please let us know why.
for me i am very happy with it till now, it is stable, fast and reliable, and we dont need to boot into 2 os every time we are restarting the phone, and i think HD2 Became an android phone.
I think it's incredible what DFT were able to accomplish. After NAND hit, I sent Cotulla a donation, and have been trying to figure out who else to donate to for their hard work.
As far as NAND, I haven't noticed a major difference in the quality of the builds (SD vs NAND). I think it's probably there, but I'm not technically knowledgeable to notice the difference. I hear some people say the battery life is better, but I still end up plugging my phone in every night to recharge it anyway. The one nice thing the SD builds had was that it was very simple to compare builds in case there were problems with one. I could have one build stored away in a folder called 'Android2' while I dinked around with another build to test things out. It's not a huge deal (and I could probably get Titanium Restore... er, whatever it's called, backup?), but it was simpler to just move around folders.
Anyway, WM sucked so bad, I'm very much happy to rid my phone of it. I'm thankful to all of the developers who made my phone MUCH better than it originally came as (this includes WM ROM developers obviously).
Oh... and I think this thread should've gone into the 'HD2 Android General Discussion' section.

+1 for that.....
Guess MODS have to do some extra work
moved
Very much agree. For 1, wrong forum. This is development not 'how do you like this new feature'. More, 'how do we make this new feature work'.
Anyway, I love the NAND, and you are right, the SD was alot more convient to test and use new builds. Copy the folder and launch. Cant get easier than that indefinitly.
Although, the SDcard is not made to be read/written that many times. The SDcard itself, AND the SD reader in the phone were not made to be used that much.
The hardware im sure has got ALOT better since the G1 days, but this is exactly how my G1 died. Back in the day we used the SD to swap files, and used the ext3/4 to give the G1 a boost. Needless to say, the phone wouldnt read ANY sd card after like 8 months I think it was. Thats when I had to get a new phone because we had it so you needed the SDcard to flash a new build and w.out it, the phone could never be updated.
So my opinion? The phones come with NAND for a reason. Lets use it . Use MyBackup or Titanium and youll be okay. The flash doesnt take too long, AND its just like a REGULAR ANDROID .
THANKS DEVELOPERS! You saved me $500 and my SDcard slot.
Well, well, well. Happy to leave my comment here 'bout NAND.. This is Dream come true and the best that ever happened to my lovely HD2. With NAND, my HD2 has been on daily use without any single fault or malfunction. It works very well and the battery life is very very very GOOD. I really don't know how to start thankin' DFT and all those who put their efforts, ideas, time, compromise and and and.. THANKSSSSSSSSS. I'm done with testing NAND and now up toooooooo Donate. They deserve it.
I have not noticed any difference with nand, all the same issues still exist, but now its more inconvenient to change builds, mod system files, change kernels, etc.. Battery life is no different compared to SD. Boot time is not shorter compared to dual boot with EBL. From a developing stand point magldr is a milestone, but from a usability/practical point, its underwhelming. I think RAM smokes nand by far and wish more development is put towards RAM. I'm anxiously waiting for DS's nand+ram.

Just nit picking a little, but there will never be a "nand + ram" as you say. The ram build loads the build into ram memory, thereby making it analogous to the rom memory. In nand, the build uses ram in much the same way your normal computer does. Therefore, even if it was possible to do a nand/ram build (anything is possible for darkstone, really), I don't see the benefit because you would have less ram to work with, and rom read/write speed is actually slower than many sd card read/write speeds.
Back to topic! Only time will tell, but i think the best thing about nand is, as another user pointed out earlier, data stability. So tired of having to reload apps after a week or two because the build craps out on me.

not a dream come true for me, but i am happy to be able to be able to copy files through the usb cable without having to reboot afterwards.
no,
it wasn't what i expected, i tought it would delete hspl.
but it didn't, it's even better like this.
it's amazingly stable.
i'm statified, expect that my data wasn't working yesterday[ppp]
hopefully that won't come along.
but if i have to restart it every night to fix it i'm fine
Im loving MAGLDR and what it has brung to the table but there iw one disappointment in that as far as I can remember it was said by cotulla or somebody else that we would have option of keeping WinMO on NAND and booting Android from SD via MAGLDR instead of via WM.
I kind of liked the idea of having that additional option also.
But its no big loss really and im just happy to have the ability to boot directly into android

That was my biggest disappointment about it, too. But it lists booting wm65 under future developments, so hopefully soon it will have that capability. I'm happy that he released the nand Android part of it for the community.

My phone has never run this good. Nand is absolutely amazing.
My phone stays unplugged longer and runs better. What isn't to like?
Currently unplugged 13 hours and still at 50% sd builds never came close to that.

about the only problem with magldr is the usb charging bug (big problem!)
and difficulty with clockwork recovery
hoping both are fixed soon
wm7 seems already future supported and WM 6.5 can rot in hell
magldr made me buy the hd2
I'm satisfied with NAND. SD versions were a ton of fun to test and switch, which I did like crazy....however I've found a NAND flavor that is deathly fast, stable on which everything works (TMOUS) and battery life is better than average.
can i just ask - what would be the point of MAGLDR having a WM 6.5 boot feature if a 6.5 rom boots just fine without magldr? its not like WM will run from SD card..... ?
it would be a pain for WM chefs (me included) to re-tool and create MAGLDR compatible ROMS when our current methods work just fine. Remember, MAGLDR is just a flash away at any rate.....
Yes !!! I got my expectings pleased with nand and all the things are working on mdeejays HD Revolution,and battery is so good-i might say-better than with winmo on it...
Thanx to DFT for MAGLDR and mdeejay for all the goodies with his roms

Because with magldr, you can have it boot directly into Android on your SD card without having to go into winmo first.

In my opnion yes..
VERY satisfied with NAND. No more wake up lag or during call black screen, which was pretty much the trouble I was having with SD and RAM builds.
Thx DFT!

Gingerbread is so fast compare to Froyo, you would not believe it?
But Gingerbread has no sense (except sense theme from Mccm), has no Internet passthrough and some apps do not work with it. SPBTV 2.0 is an example for me.
This is my point of view.
I will never come back to Froyo.
I am Magldr, WP7, Mccm GB v2.1. THE BEST!
Why there is NO CLEAN SD/MAGLDR BUILDS of Gingerbread, without sense, CM mod etc...? Each avaliable 2.3 build is customized and very unoriginal Hope the situation will change...

check out AmeriCanAndroid.
it's a SD build, clean, based on CM7 Gingerbread, 2.3.3 to be specific. And is natively built as a Leo, not another device as is common amongst HD2 builds.

Well in my experience, Gingerbread is extremely fast, true, but Froyo is not bad and very stable. The best i tried for froyo was
[Dec 10][SD] NexusHD2-FRG83D V1.8 (PPP + RMNET) [Kernel: hastarin r8.5.3_oldcam], and i got very used to it, all my apps works well and fast enough. gaming (emulators, ps snes genesis n64...), all programs (social, productivity, work...) basically all the apps. My first real jump to gingerbread after many hesitation due to reading the forums was a month ago i tried with CM7 then another stock like (can't remember which one , sorry!), lots of hiccups and incompatible with many apps I loved and can't live without, don't get me wrong they were good but, from my point of view,coming from all the goodies in froyo did not beat the speed gingerbread offered. So i went back to froyo again using [DL Desire v4.32][Sense Re-Engineering with RAM][Always FASTER], which is blazing fast but lags some times (best quadrant score i've seen in all roms i've tested).
So my 2 cents is that it really depends on the user. I would absolutely go 100% gingerbread with AmeriCanAndroid AOSP HD2 GB233 CM7|bkup2sdext234 [KERNEL:AmCanAndroid r3.06], because this is the best I have tested very fast stable and all that you can get from gingerbread on your HD2, however not compatible with my favorite apps. So until I can work around those, Froyo is still my best option and there are very decent one out there with good tweaking options (setCPU...). Choices choices Gingerbread vs Froyo means to me Speed vs Compatibility, hopefully we can get best of both world soon.
NB: I am talking about SD only, no MAGDLR or Ram as I have seen no real difference running SD or Ram in terms of speed or battery or at least not very noticeable, So I like to keep my WM around just in case since i tend to go crazy on all the options offered so in case of android crash and urgency i can boot back and respond fast on my weak but trusty WM.

Try [27.FEB][DFT/CWM] NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.3 [Android2.3.2][Kernel: tytung_r6]. Clean, fast ROM without any extras
I bought my hd2 on ebay and had to flash it back to 6.5 because of a password problem. I really like my phone but I did like the android. I have been reading hundreds of pages and there is just too much information to get through.
I would like to put android back on my phone but how do you figure out which version is the best? For me it needs to be simple. I am an old lady. I want to put it on and never have to mess with it again. Will some nice person help this old lady across the street.

The only way to truely tell which rom is the best one for you is if you test them out yourself. We can tell you which one works best for us but it won't really do any good.
Check out the thread below it breaks it down to different types of android roms..

Hello I'm Catalin,and I have HD2.I lke the new android 2.3 but i don't like the dial pad.Can some one fix that
@Stormynights
Hi I'd advise you to have a look at darkstones SD roms particularly the sense-less build (I'll edit post with link and name later, I forget it now).
It's very fast, simple to set up. I have been using it ever since I first tried it, about 6 weeks ago. Rock solid and very clean and lovely to use it's well worth a look.

Here are the two best Android builds for your HD2 (please get that crappy Windows 6.5 off of your phone at once)
Froyo 2.2 with Sense (ALOT LIKE 6.5 ONLY ANDROID)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915159
Gingerbread 2.3.3 (VERY FAST AND STABLE BUT SOME APPS DON'T WORK)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060
Enjoy!
Hello guys,
I bought brand new HD2 and want to replace W6.5 with 2.3.4/Sense 3.0, NAND(been told SD installs are quite slow).
But I`m struggling choosing build - there are SO many, I`m totally confused.
This page lists all of them, but which one I should go for?
android.hd2roms.com
I don`t need any special features, mods, fancy stuff - just original 2.3.4 with Sense 3.0.
Please advise
Ta
It is not possible to get Gingerbread 2.3.4 with sense, only 2.3.3. Also, I don't wish to confuse you but SD installs are far from slow. In fact, many people say that MccMBoxMax GS (SD gingerbread with sense) is faster than NAND builds. I would advise you not to use Gingerbread+sense for a while as there are loads of annoying glitches, mostly graphic but also the power menu doesn't work and third party apps need to be used for some things. Try AmeriCanAndroid (SD) it is extremely fast but has no sense, stock gingerbread.
Thanks Nigel.
Ok, then 2.3.3 with Sense 3.0 - does it exist?
I looked on some screenshots of modified builds - some look quite terrible with kiddy graphics, hence I`m looking for most stock version without heavy mods.
Hi, i have just installed "Pyramid HTC Europe 1.35.401.1 - Real 3D V1.5" which is gingerbread 2.3.3 & sense 3.0, has some graphics glitches but runs fine, look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075703
There are plenty, just search the forums. Anything with 'Kingdom' included in the title has Sense 3.0, and there are a fair few ROMs with Sense 2.1 with parts of 3.0 (e.g. lockscreen, widgets etc.). I personally don't use NAND roms and have never tried sense 3.0, so I couldn't recommend anything.

Nigel,
If you have to recommend, what would you prefer? I know for a fact NAND isn't as fast as SD, and no Sense 3.0 due to graphic glitch.
I have the 1024MB HD2, not the Euro version, which is 512MB, and willing to try the SD Android. I've been in NAND, but always come back to WinMo 6.5 because NAND always gives me crap. Never really tried SD Android, but since there's a person, such as you, who's recommending SD Android, which is the most stable, and fast? Just looking for ROM, doesn't matter if it has Sense or not, just stable with minimal to NO flaws.
Thanks!!!!!!
Well, seems that there is no 100% stable Android version for HD2. Just have to buy Sensation then.

LOL man! Search the threads in HTC HD2 sub-forums and you will find very very good Roms for daily use! No need to buy a sensation! Flash your 1st NAND rom and then you will be a flashaholic like the rest of us!
I can assure you that Android on HD2 is faaaaaaar better than the Android on the official devices!
That's why XDA exists; To make things even better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then the questions still stands open - is there a 100% stable/glitch/bug free 2.3.3 with Sense 3.0?
a lot of the sence 3 builds are still a little on the buggy side so if you dont want sd roms because they are slow you might find sence 3 roms annoying as well. no sence 3 ROM is 100% bug free. this website will list all the android roms on xda both for sd and nand. it also will list if its sence or not and is a great site to grab your roms from...really it links you back to XDA but its easier to scroll through. i personally like the ANIMATED SENSE ROM. if you want a great fast but not sence 3 nand ROM i would go with RAFDROID and BLUETOPIA HD is a great starter ROM as well. though what i like and want on my phone you may hate so i would really suggest you try each of them out for yourself. keep the ones you like best on your sd card if you have room that way anytime you need a change just flash over a new ROM.

Hello, my wife has a sidekick 4g that she absolutely hates and has gotten an offer to trade for an hd2. My question is, the person says it is running 2.3.5. How stable is android on the hd2? If I tell her to trade and it sucks, I will be in the doghouse! Also, if I can convince her to give windows phone 7 a shot, how does that run? I can do the searching later to find out how to boot between the two, but is it pretty risky/hard? I've rooted and rom'd every android phone I've owned but something about winmo. Makes me nervous. Thanks!

I agree. Just make sure the touch screen works they are infamouse for them breaking. The phone is easy to root and nearly every rom on xda runs perfect on this phone
I've had my HD2 for 2 years now, and I knew nothing about rooting etc. It took me a whole day to learn, but now I can easily switch ROMs within half an hour max.
I've tried multiple Android ROMs (SD and NAND) and a WM7 ROM before the mango update, and everything works incredibly smooth and fully-functional. It's actually even better than the original Windows Mobile OS, so I'd highly recommend giving it a fiddle! Trust me, you can't really go wrong if you follow all the right advice (stickies have all the good stuff!)
Once you get going I think you'll really love the variety of builds and find one that you're comfortable with. Enjoy!
Awesome! Thanks guys, sounds like its a go then! I may even be wanting one for myself!

Well it all depends on which rom/settings/tweaks you use but in general Android is more stable and runs better on the HD2 then most native Android devices!

You dont "root" the HD2.
I'm using CM7_Tweaked-2.0.0-LEO and radio 2.15.50.14. I would not describe it as very stable and I cannot get the radio to do 3g or H. Perhaps my expectationa are too high and I'm sure it is more stable on Android than Windows, but I am not happy with it.
I have the same problem. would like to update my Leo by Android but I do not know what is the best ROM to do that in terms of stability, display errors and energy management? I was using 2.3.5 NAND version which had quit a lot of bugs. Now I'm back on WM
Android on the hd2 in my opinion runs better on this device than some devices that are launched with it.
Load up NexusHD 2.3.7 and you or your wife won't look back.

Well you are not going to find out unless you try them. Also "2.3.5. NAND" means absolutely nothing as that isnt rom specific, that is just a version number of Android OS.
In my experience the most stable version without needing tweaks/extra setup etc is the NexusHD2 roms by tytung (Froyo) and (Gingerbread) and they are as close to stock Android as you will get.
I am addicted to trying new roms though and have started to really like the MIUI based roms but am currently testing the new NexusHD2 ICS base.
HD2 forever ...
I have an EU and a from about 2 month a TMOUS:
- EU with MIUI 2.37a stable ... hard daily use, it rocks!!!
- TMOUS to try other roms with sense (big internal space required, i hate app2sd ) and tried 3 different version of ICS for now without any problem!!!
I have thought about changing them for a real android but ... i love modding ... so no chance for other model for now
A quick reply? Buy a TMOUS
Cheers
Roms
Since you have tried many different roms, have you found a sense 3.5 that can play 720p video? Mwakious 3.5 does not
HD2 was build for Android, delivering it with WM6.5 was a joke!
