[Q] Winmo 6.5 on SD ? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

you might find this kinda strange .. but I ll explain the point of view
as a HD 2 owner I was so happy to have Android as a second operation system on my SD... and after I get used to android and discovered how much its stable and nice .. I was happier when MAGLDR released and we could have Android on NAND as a main operation.. so finally i deleted the ugly and laggy winmo ...
but ! I m wondering its not a bad idea to have winmo 6.5 on SD like second system. lets face the truth, YES android is much better, and maybe its the best so far, as its based on great Linux.. but I still miss some programs, especially the GPS stuff like "TomTom" and "Navicomputer".
so is it possible ?
Thanks for reading

[Q] Android playing nice with sense on winmo

Well currently right now im running an android froyo build to be specific this one [BUILD][03.08.2010][shubCRAFT CM6RC2/Froyo/Themed V1.1][Kernel: Cotulla 2.6.32.9#103]
and my problem is now once i boot back into winmo sense refuses to load back up i have to use winmos default homescreen which is crap sorry if i offend anyone that likes it but i hate it. Unlike a lot of people in the forums i do not like either OS better then the other so i dont want to run a real basic stripped winmo rom i love energy so far seems to be my favorite rom but i would still like to run android if anyone has tried the build i posted above then you know what im talking about its awesome its nearly flawless. This is the second time that an android build that runs rather smoothly has killed sense and my only remedy is to reflash my rom all over has anyone encountered my problem and have a fix for it
format the SD card . happened with me that's how i solved it.

Questions from a newbie android NAND hd2 user!

Ok i installed MALGDR on my hd2 and MDJ_FroYo_Revolution_v._2.1_NAND (radio 2.15.50.14) is up and running nice with no problems.
I have no experience on android platform and i would like to customize the homescreen by adding other widgets etc and extend the battery life if possible (barely 1 day so far).
Can someone point out to me guides or posts on how to change the taskbar, the themes, the font etc. I knew how to do these in WinMO but i have no idea on android.
Thank you all!

[Q] Has anyone got a link to a fully working 2.3 ROM?

I know this post will anoy alot of people but people jump to conclusions.
This is not a 'which is the best' question its a Which works Question
I want a rom that will work like a new phone out of a box - HTC sense UI and all working.. - No dodgy iphone style theme thing -
Ive been using android 2.2 for 6 months now and its been great but i want to update the OS to 2.3.
Every version of 2.3 i install has problems with the camera or backlight or somthing OR - Theres a 'allmost perfect version' - and theres either
a. no actual link - just a load of crap in the thread aout how good it is with loads of pictures and no actual link -
b. it has a stupid crappy iphone theme skin that it doesent function properly without
c. crashes and wont boot after clock work has done its witch craft!
So my question is -
In your opinion, whats the most stable BEST RUNNING 2.3 ROM that isnt skinned and has sense UI?
I dont care about people's thoughts 'whats cool for me might not be cool for you' - the question is as above!
I suggest not to jump to conclutions ur self and try Ultimate droid 3.3 ir has gingerbread 2,3 running, best speed amongst ANY roms out there, simple but very customisable ui, been using it for 5-6 months and it has never crashed.
tip - get a widget of the sence like clock u wond even feel like missing sence UI
there is no fully working sense rom with 2.3

This animal doesn't exist. There are no 2.3 ROMs running Sense that work "well", they ALL have major issues. This is simply not an option at this point.
Try again next month. Who knows?
all roms are in DEV state. even next month =P
Thankyou - Does the SD card work as an APP directory

Thanks for your feedback - My only question - i downloaded a version of 2.3 - and when i move an app say angry birds to the SD card - it comes up with some bogus application cannot start error - then a load of random numbers - ill log it next time... - But as soon as i move the app to the phone memory, it works - this happens on all card classes... - Google earth also does this aswell as loads of other apps...

its plausible. but will need great amount of Dev Support.
You need to write drivers which should be compatible with Dell Hardware.
That will be the biggest challenge...after its done the hardware can handle the OS flawlessly...
I know Cotulla would be a good person to ask this.
It's been a while since last post on this thread, but I will ask again. Is there a possibility of this happening. I am a long time windows mobile user, last phone was HTC Touch Pro/Titl 2 (I have both). 6.5 was great, I wanted more speed. Got DVP, great hardware, software absolutely sucks. Need to go back to WM 6.5. Wi-Fi Sharing, Email refreshing every 15 minutes, not using acceleration and light sensors to its fullest extent, not being able to save stuff on file system, not running WM 6.5 apps, list goes on and on.
Any ideas anyone ?

hi
i have done some inquiries to this matter some time back. and it seems it is possible but difficult. nobody is interested in wm anymore, except for few guys like you and me. most of the capable devs who could make this possible are not interested in wm anymore and too busy with android and wp7. as the previous reply suggests why dont you pm cotulla? he might be able to give better advice. or the next best thing you could do is trade your DVP to a hd2, which is the best phone around running wm. but minus the keyboard. and have you tried wp7 with the mango update? doesnt it support most of previously missing functions?
I can sell DVP and probably even make money on it as I currently reside outside of the US. WP7 has taken away a lot of features. Mango was a little improvement from 7.0, but still has a long way to go. The IMAP email refresh 15 minutes is horrible, I use phone as internet connection backup, WM6.5 apps don't work, I have some of my own apps I wrote, those don't work of course. WP7 looks great and works great for a regular Joe Shmoe, but for me as a business user it doesnt cut it. It's really not worth it for me to sink in so much time into this. PM'ing the guy who knows about this won't do any good, not like he is going to sink in weeks of his time into it, you know. I will go back to my Tilt2/TP2, Titlt2 for use in Latin America, TP2 on T-Mobile while in US, Titlt2 also gets use on At&T networks in US. Probably looks like for me to get some more speed need to invest in a pair of HD2's AT&T and T-Mobile radio frequencies. They will do 2 things I'm missing now: faster browsing + ability to zoom-in using Multi-Touch. If you find out of any new phones that would make me happy (HTC HD2 + keyboard LOL) pls let me know. DVP running WM6.5 would be a damn good phone though . Thanks for input !!
ok...gud luck with your work..will let u know if i come across any news..

Pdaimatejam Wp7.5 mango 7740

Would just like to say a BIG thankyou for this rom, I spent yesterday installing it, also dual booting Android, had to save the partition onto my hdd, then instal wp7, then re-do the partitions, then re create the Android side, then copy the patition back over to the new Partition, all working really well, nice and smooth, battery life much much better. Would be interested in any further developments in this area.
this ROm is quite good at battery. I think it's the best among BTF, HD2O and it. But the multi touch isn't good. As my experience, the multi touch in BTF is the best.

i have problem installing this rom
after i install it it stop on the dft screen and restarting
and do that more and more
ANY ONE have this problem
any solution !!!!!!
please help
Bluetooth Module in this ROM is not compatiable with my car. There is no such problem in HD2O's v1.22.
The ROM is awesome, best one I had on my HD2, but I have an issue with YouTube - founds videos and all but when I try to play them, they can't load. Hadn't tried anything with YouTube app from Marketplace because hadn't activated yet.
this is bug... waiting new ROM... already written few times in main ROM topic...
Market
For me it's interesting. I'm using v3 version. I tried to install Apps through a software (wAppMarket or sg like that) and the problem was the same like you all written 1000 times. It stopped around 60%. So I just belived that there is a bug.
But some days ago I activated my WP7 (called the MS CS), and tried to download apps from the Market. And I'm supprised that everything is working. How come???
