[Q] How to find a simple and precise procedure to install Android 2.2 on HD2 ?

Hello !
I found here a lot of informations about the developpement of many roms for Android 2.2 on HD2. But as you guess, i'm not specialized in mobile developpement, so i'm a bit lost in this huge amount of informations ...
I simply try to find a simple and concise procedure to install android 2.2 on HD2 (wm 6.5 is installed at the moment).
Must i strictly use the loader Haret ? Android can be loaded only in dual boot ?
Which roms must i choose ? Why is there many roms ?
Is there still major known bug ?
Best Regards

theres a damn guide thread on the first post of this section as well as on the first page of android development section...

theres no simple way of doing it ... every one has his own journey ... think of it as a graduate thesis , but there are some guides for your aid i wish u luck and fortitude on ur way

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732380

gonna read and test these docs. Thank you.

this this one, might appeal to you as a newbie
[GUIDE] Newbies Step by Step Guide in booting ANDROID for HD2

Thanks because i start the instructions and at first
"NOTE: If you have Vista or Windows 7, update WMDC to v6.1 *HERE* first"
the programs fails to install on Win7 64bits ultimate offical

Second attempt : RAPI.dll is missing ...

ok need the 64bits version : Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 Driver for Windows Vista (for win7 of course )

just a question after falshing the rom ...
a) i took the Parad0XUA_Experimental as suggested here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732380
b) plus the Elegancia MaxSense WITHOUT HTC Messaging (i guess i could send message with another interface ?)
how i install the Parad0XUA_Experimental ? it works with Haret which is a sort of bootloader isn't it ? is there a better alternative ?
what are the avantage/disavantages of installing the build on phone or sdcard ?
The rom must be installed too on the phone memory or the sdcard ?
Thank you for your kindfull help

ok so i finally test the
- New Froyo build by dan1j3l V1 that my win 7 don't recognize when i plugin the phone
- Miri_Steve0007_EleganciaMaxSense_V5.0_FINAL_NoHTCMessaging
that is a sort of skin but not an OS as i expected. The RUU file patched the windows mobile 6.5 OS instead of the android one ... while i was in an active sync session.
is there an Android 2.2 ROM that works well, for which i could connect to my PC ??
Has somebody tested the FroyoStone Sense - Version 3.1 (29-September-2010) ?
Regards

gawd u r hopeless...
1. flash hspl to change radio to 2.10.50
2. flash chuckydroidrom
3. download android file to SD card
4. click on android loader

Tinkering with the phone isn't for everyone. From your posts you may fall into that category of 'don't do it.'
The thread you are referencing has hundreds of posts of people that are and have been using it.

Wow.
Dude. Stop. Before you brick MY phone!
Ha...

the HSPL v3 is installed so i can go back anytime ? What's the problem ? You think you're part of an elite so i'm too stupid to undunstand what you try to explain clearly ?

Yo mini !
I'm gonna try your solution just to try. Just 2 last question :
why elegancia update my win mobile os(on phone memory) instead of Android one (on sd card). I've just run the CustomRUU.exe file from win7 with active sync enabled ...
is there a way to avoid the Haret process and to simply replace the win mobile os ? How can i check if it's ok for Europe Mobile ?
p.s. : i use Radio Leo 2.15.50.14

FroyoStone Sense - Version 3.1 (29-September-2010) seems to be ok

The problem is that you obviously didn't read. Not reading in this case can get you a nice bricked phone.

And it's entirely possible that you are indeed too stupid to follow my explanation. That is for you to decide. Just keep in mind that *I* didn't call you stupid. You did.

Boot your HD2 into Windows Mobile, plug it into your PC via USB, and choose for 'LiveSync'. Download these files belonging to OzDroid WinMo ROM. Extract the files from the download with software like 7zip. Download the CustomRUU.7z attached to this post and extract it to the same directory. Run CustomRUU.exe and follow the directions. Be patient.. Done!
Next time, please use the search funtion

Thanks for your explanation, but still I need a windows ROM for installing Android

There is no android "ROM" for hd2's yet. For now, it runs on the sdcard, you still needs windows mobile for the initial boot. (I believe that's what your asking, anyways)

I understand your confusion but please take the time to carefully read the thread i just linked to. OzDroid ROM is a Windows mobile ROM. It even includes an optional bootloader to automatically load Android.

HTC HD2 - Changing to Android. Pls Help

Hi,
I have just purchased a new HTC HD2 on T-Mobile (U.K.) and I am loving it !
I am a total novice and wish to change from Windows 6.5 to the better latest Android OS.
Can anyone please tell me how to do this? I have no idea what I am doing and do not want to do something which may jeopardise the phone (I do know that it does affect the warranty) The only thing I know about 'Flash' it flashing my mobile in public.
I would really like if someone can give me Step by Step instructions via a video so I can see what I am doing.
Any feedback would be really appreciated.
Many thanks

Don't rush anything. Make sure you have a good idea about what you're doing and what you can do if things go wrong. If you're unsure about anything just use the search feature first and if you're still iffy about something, ask a question.

I think you are making this harder than it needs to be. Just follow the instructions given to you in your previously started thread about the same thing. The link to MSkip gives you detailed instructions on how to install Android on your HD2 and how to revert back to WM6.5 if you so desire.

Thanks for the reply. What is the latest version of Android for HTC HD2? The link you gave me, is that the latest version?

Google is your friend. Haven't used it in a while. If you are that unsure of flashing Android to your HD2 just buy an Android powered phone. Sorry to be so brash but just follow the instructions.

Still lost

DoctorGore said:
I'll try to explain a bit. First off you've got to install the things that let you install Android in the first place (HSPL, MAGLDR, CWM etc) and after that you install a ROM. A ROM is the thing that will decide what version of Android you phone will have. If you don't like the ROM you have, or if you just want the newest version of Android, all you have to do is change it. You don't have to re-install everything again, just your ROM.
You might have to change your CWM partition size when you choose a new ROM, but the chef (person who made the ROM) will let you know what size you need in the thread. This is also easy and doesn't require you to re-install everything. Don't worry if you don't know what a CWM partition is because it'll make sense eventually.

Go to the HTC website and flash the latest stock ROM 3.14 for HD2. After this all you need to do is download a ROM from the SD Android section, place the Android folder on the root of your SD card (i.e. not in any folders), go to file explorer, in Android run CLRCAD and then HaReT.

Luckily I'm on O2 UK so I may be able to attach it. I've never tried this though so sorry if it doesn't work.
You tell me if it worked.
EDIT: clearly it didn't. You can try this one though.

Ok, i think it´s not possible.

What exactly do you want to do? Do you just want to flash ROM or do you need to instal MAGLDR/CLK first?
If you don't have MAGLDR/CLK please read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783 for HD2 toolkit. You can always try to emulate windows through WINE.

AFAIK you flash the HD2 inside the HD2 via recovery
haven't tried clk though
try this link if it helps
