[GUIDE] Newbies Step by Step Guide in booting ANDROID for HD2

the guide is a simplified step by step approach
for People on Stock ROM
a. you need to put HSPL on your device
b. A compatible Winmo ROM and Radio
below is a guide on how to achieve this
HSPL is a prerequisite before everything else (Latest version recommended) – video guide here
chose your Android build to download (I know there are plenty of them)
share us your experience with them, different builds have different behaviours
pros and cons.
1. Chose your Android Friendly Custom Winmo ROM and Radio
(preferably the one recommended by the Android Builder)
Video guide for Custom ROM flashing
Video Guide for Radio ROM Flashing
(I prefer the latest 2.15 Radio, most Android Builders recommends
this as well, completely eliminates Robot Voice during calls
2. format at least a 4GB sd card (full format fat32)
(I suggest you use a separate sd card when its your first time testing Android)
3. in the root - create a folder named Android. Place all the unzipped files of the build you've chosen here.
(note some build when unzipped will reveal a folder “Android” - just copy this to the root directory of the sd card instead)
4. with device OFF, insert SDCard
5. boot winmo, disable screen brightness - then go to File Explorer - Storage Card
6. click CLRCAD first (nothing will happen visibly - but it will fix robot like voice while on calls)
5. click/run haret
note with step 5 and 6 (there are plenty of dual bootloaders out
there but i prefer to boot android manually as I THINK, this is the best problem free method
if you want a more complex and detailed guide, look here
also look at my signature
Update: a lot of people has reported being able to run Android without HSPL
so long as they have the Stock 3.14 ROM on their device, I have tested this myself.

needs a bit of attention, any newbie android testers. try this simplified guide.

Custom ROMs and flashing your phone with HSPL is NOT REQUIRED!!!
I have T-Mobile US HD2, Stock ROM/Radio - un-formatted SD card (stock 16GB) - and my Android Froyo works just fine!!!
Therefore, I am not sure of how much of this first half of the Guide is actually going to be used.

Same here, latest stock TMOUS official rom, and running andriod fine from the stock card. Get g-sensor lockups here & there, and robot voice incomming and echo outgoing on calls on Hyperdriod rom, but not on others.
Just DL andriod rom of choice, extract to sd card, and run - see how it works for ya.

Mod Warning
Chaps,
Can we calm it down and post on topic please. Some of you are in breach of the XDA rulebook and I would hate to have to act on it.
Appreciate your cooperation here.

Yes, I did it and running Android without any problems. My HD2 T-MobileUS has the following:
R 2.08.50.08.2
G 15.34.50.070
D 2.10.82076.8G
I did not change anything above and left it as it was when I bought the phone.
I DnLd Android 2.2 en-us Nexus One Build/FRG33 to my SD Card.
I am very pleased with it and really like it as it does seem faster, has many more apps from the Android Store (than WM apps I have found over the years searching the Web) and many are Free. Those that are not free are cheaper than the WM versions.
I did have to transfer my Addresses, Calendar and set up other minor things, no problems.
I am using Android more now than WM. Some of the things that I do not like about Android:
1. Must Power Off and then Power On to get back to WM OS. Whereas going from WM to Android I have an Icon Link. Very time consuming. I tried the Dual boots and still can't get them to work.
2. I would like to uninstall News and Weather but cannot find where it is at as it does not showup when I use AppMonster Pro.
I tried to uninstall AmazonMP3 but it still comes back?
I have uninstalled OpenGlDemos, Abduction, and a few more.
I have tried TaskKill apps and Startup Auditor (Startup Disable and Keep Disabled) and they don't seem to do anything to prevent apps from restarting.
Some of the things I really like about Android:
1. Speed
2. Apps Store (Free Apps) so many (not as many as iTunes but most of what I want and need in a very clean display/format like a lot of Apple apps.)
3. Voice that I use instead of keying in Texting
4. So many more options to customize.
Hope this helps others who are thinking of DnL this OS.

1. just like in windows, apps are always runnin in the background. dont believe me? (cntrl+alt+delete). just because u press 'X' doesnt mean it goes away. android simply got rid of the 'X' cus its not needed. pressing the 'X' is almost like pressing the home button on android.
2. its still in development stage so its gonna take a while longer to get a NAND version of android and then u can boot into winmo with an icon. but i have tested mines with autoboot and it loads in exactly 45 secs from winmo with chuckydroid rom. since ur on the stock rom, its slower.
3. and are u sure ur stock rom is performing okay? no robot voice? alien voice on the other end for the caller? all the features work? gps? bluetooth? etc?

I'm running android on stock tmous pretty well. I do have occasional sleep of death.
I just tried YouTube app and the videos are kind of distorted, dunno if it's cuz of me.

this is a very interesting note, as i have the EU version and just could not run
Android on stock rom WITHOUT HSPL. I have read other US HD2 owners reporting as well.

Yes, I know that WM does not kill all apps when you press 'X'. However, I could kill them and know they were killed.
3. Yes, my stock rom is performing OK. I expected some problems, but have not found any except what I posted. Phone calls, voice, BT all work great.
Thanks for your input.

Again, for your peace of mind, I have a stock rom and I have not put HSPL on my HD2. So, believe me or not. I don't need to lie about something like this. I posted just to let others know that it did work on my STOCK TMOUS HD2.

Hspl is needed only to flash a new radio. It's has been agreed that radios from 2.10 - 2.14 were acceptable radios for Android.
Some stock tmous hd2's come with radio 2.10 already meaning u don't need a radio flash. I'm not sure how u are running on radio 2.08 but more power to u if u are. I'm sure ur running on radio 2.10 not 2.08 tho..........
U might want to make sure that radio isn't draining your battery or whether your getting a robot voice on the caller end of your phone calls.

I have been using Android for about a month now and use my phone, messaging, internet, etc., with no problems. The only problem which I fully understand is the battery drain which I can live with.
My HD2 T-MobileUS has the following:
R 2.08.50.08.2
G 15.34.50.070
D 2.10.82076.8G
I did not change anything above and left it as it was when I bought the phone. I have found over the years flashing my MDA, Wing, Omnia I900 and Jailbreaking my Iphone 3G that sometimes it is not worth changing anything unless you are having problems. Thus, I no longer change stock roms.
Yes, I do still use my Iphone 3G with 3.0.1 and my Omnia. However, the HD2 with Android is far better than any phone with WM for many reasons.
I am very pleased with it and really like it as it does seem faster, has many more apps from the Android Store (than WM apps I have found over the years searching the Web) and many are Free. Those that are not free are cheaper than the WM versions.
I did have to transfer my Addresses, Calendar and set up other minor things, no problems.
Some of the things that I do not like about Android:
1. Must Power Off and then Power On to get back to WM OS. Whereas going from WM to Android I have an Icon Link. I tried the Dual boots and still can't get them to work. Now I use ReBoot and it does shut down and restart in WM. No problem for me as I live with it.
2. I would like to uninstall News and Weather but cannot find where it is at as it does not showup when I use AppMonster Pro.
3. I don't like the way 3D Gallery brings up all phots, Icons, etc. I have tried StudioKUMA .nomedia Manager and .NoMedia that tagged my folders, which I did so individually, and caused me to disable my ringtones.
I tried to uninstall AmazonMP3 but it still comes back?
I have uninstalled OpenGlDemos, Abduction, and a few more.
I have tried TaskKill apps and Startup Auditor (Startup Disable and Keep Disabled) and they don't seem to do anything to prevent apps from restarting. I am trying Startup Manager, too.

if you meant the Sense integration of news and weather, i doubt if you can uninstall this
but you can disable this by selecting it not to sync in settings

For the record, I tried many different builds with stock TMOUS ROM and Radio, and I would always get SODs within a few days. Finally changed Radio and ROM and I have been trying every build out there with only a few problems.
An interesting point to consider is that some people have problems with particular builds whereas others don't. For example, the most stable build I've tried is Sergio76's Coredroid, but other people have complained that it's very buggy. For some reason this may be similar to why some people can run Android on stock ROM and Radio, but others can't? Just a thought.

this is the main reason, there is no particular best build to recommend, as there are
too many variables to consider, as with the TMOB US brand HD2, many have even confirmed
that they dont need hspl to run Android. another thing is the Radio, which
also plays a huge role.

so my new untouched htc hd2 is coming on wed, so i can just put an android build on my sd card and run android without the hspl thing or a custom rom?? is this correct??

[Q] Andoid on HD2

Ok i rooted a bunch of android phones but this is my first winmo phone. so i am a noob to this. I just need some clarification on porting android to the hd2. In order to port android i must flash a custom winmo rom and load android as kind of like a "secondary" OS right?
So everytime I reboot my phone I must reboot it into winmo and then load android? And is there currently or is anyone working on a way to boot straight into android?
Sorry for asking so many questions and sounding like a noob but I just want to be 110% clear before I try anything.

I believe there are android roms that boot right into android.

In order to run Android:
1. you need to go through the [BUILD]s in the Android Development section... located in the other HD2 area.
2. Unless otherwise instructed by the build creater, you need to make an Android folder on your SD card, and copy the contents of the build into that folder.
3. If you have an "Android Friendly" ROM, there will be an icon already to start Android, which will auto-run the CLRCAD.exe (for sound to work) & HaRet.exe (which loads Android) If you are on a Stock ROM, or one that does not have the Android loader, then you will either need to run those in order manually (CLRCAD then HaRet) or download the Android loader applet (in the Android Development section)
4. If you want Android to load automatically, there are custom ROMs found in the Android Development section that are setup for this purpose, HOWEVER, you will need to make sure that it's TMOUS HD2 compatible
5. if you experience "issue xyz" be sure to check the Android Development section, as they have probably already addressed it

ok thanks so much im gonna be porting android over as soon as i get home from work today hopefully i do it without screwing anything up lol

Will Android work w/Outlook sync? Also, are you still able to tether with Android? I've searched around but haven't found the answer. If no for either then that will be the deal breaker for me. Thanks in advance

it does work with ActiveSync, it that's what you're asking?
as for the tethering, look in the build notes.... they give a list of options that do & don't work.

nice thing is, if something does get messed up, reboot format the sd, put the build on and try again ;-p since it runs off of the sd and not ROM, there's little chance of doing something a reset can't fix

[Q] Switching to android

I am a linux fan and I am using Linux for a long time.I bought the HTC HD2. I saw some youtube videos about Android Froyo on HD2.I want to try it but they were showing that you have to put the file on the micro sd card and you have run it from there.My question is if I do it can I run windows mobile after a new boot ?or it will boot android for all time?I just don't want to let windows go because may be i will switch back.Can any one please help me?

Yes, you can easily get into winmo, every time you shutdown android you have to load winmo first and then use haret to load android, so no worries .

You can also get a boot loader from XDA and choose which you want to load at start up. windows or android...

Thanks for quick reply.Do you know which devices will not work on HTC HD2 if I run Android?Cause little confused here .Some people says wifi does not work ,some says camera does not work.Do you know actually what does not work?

That was a loooong time ago^^
Now, EVERYTHING WORKS, unless:
- You have an inappropriate Kernel (some still have issues, but the latest one works flawlessly)
- You have an inappropriate ROM (there's been reports on CM6 not being ok with all Kernels, hence the 1°)
- You have an "Exotic" rom (Desire HD, Desire Z...) : these aren't fully supported ATM
However, there are known issues with:
- Tethering, especially Wifi, it's not yet always 100% ok
- Kernels, they are all being tweaked, but IMHO, go for it, I don't boot WinMo anymore
- And other small annoyances, but that depends on your device, rom, kernel, etc etc etc
FOR YOUR CONCERN:
- Booting from an SD card is far from a flaw (to me) : Copy aside your data.img, and copy a build over it. You'll never loose your personal data by flashing again
- Hence this : Don't ask for "the best Android rom", all you'll have will be personal opinions, and may not suit you. Try them, it's damn easy, you won't loose your personal data, it's a matter of days
- Ask about the really important stuff : Kernels and Radio, and things like that, but AFTER getting through the other post and thread. Nothing more annoying than a "noob" (and we've ALL been through there, but...) that didn't (at least) try looking for himself.
->Try asking questions, starting with "I've been looking for this, found this, understood this, but need help about that" and you'll see how people will be grateful ^^

To be honest, i just (finally) being able to install Froyo on my HD2, after a lot ROM changing, Radio ect....
I must say, is not really easy to finally find the perfect combination so u can use Froyo as your daily OS (at least for me)...but u will always got XDA, and from my opinion, all the hard work (flashing, changing rom/radio) is really worthed....
so far i dont have any problem running android on my HD2...
Sorry for my bad english....

[Q] Random questions about Android on HD2

Hi. i bought an htc hd2, but i did not like windows, so my brother installed android on it. i belive it is MDJ evo ROM, but i dont know what radio i am using.
-anyway, i noticed android is using about 70% of my battery, is this normal? (my older android phone used like 10%) does changing rom help?
1. If i want to change my rom, all i have to do is replace my old one on the SD card?
2. If i backup using titanium, how do i get the restore-file on my new rom?
3. a friend of mine is buying hd2. do he need to flash hes phone to be able to install android? ive read a "definitive guide to android" here on the forum, but from a "new user" standpoint its kinda hard to understand.
So it is:-flash phone, -install rado, -drag/drop android on sd card?

1: Yes, Android is contained in it's own folder on the SD Card, if there's nothing else you wish to carry over to the other build, format the card and put the new build on, then boot in the usual way.
2: titanium backup creates a folder called rather unsurprisingly "TitaniumBackup" on the root of the SD card, copy that over to the new build, install Titanium and select restore and it will give you a list of options to reinstall. Google for the wiki on the program and it goes into a lot more detail about how to do all the steps.
3: Yes, pretty much. Although some users will tell you that you'll need a newer SPL version, so long as you're using the latest stock winmo rom the spl is not needed and radio also get's updated along with it, then it's just a case of booting android.

Thanks for the great reply =)
what is HARET? i have a dual boot option on my hd2, is this buildt in the rom itself?

HaRet is the hardware emulation invoker for Android to boot. ClrCAD is the audio part of android as well, you need to boot clrcad, then haret on all builds else you'll get no audio.
Lots of roms now have dual boot options, they are just an automatic clrcard/haret loader and some come built into roms, yes. Else they are just a cab file you can install yourself.

[Q] Need Advice/Knowledge on my new T-Mobile HD2

Hello everyone, first off let me start by congratulating the great team XDA-Developers for this awesome web page and the help they give to total NOOBS like me. Also I wanted to point out that if these questions or this thread are in the wrong place, please move it cause it's the firs time I ask for help.
Ok, so a little background, I'm not a complete noob on computers or cell phones, just on the HD2, I've had in the past a Nokia 6600, an HP 6515 running wm2003se, an iphone 3g and a 3gs, all of these were tweaked and hacked or jailbroken etc...
So now on the the questions, I just got myself a used T-Mobile HD2 cause I wanted to leave behind my iphone and have something with more power and customization options. Now I have this incredible phone in my hands and I have so many questions and plans for it, but I need Knowledge before I attempt to do anything and I can't seem to find the answers for my questions in any thread, so here goes !
1. should I update to the latest T-Mobile ROM from their web page ? Or should I at least download it to have it as a backup to flash back to stock ?
2. I think this device has already HSPL cause it had android on it before, how do I check the HSPL and should I use that or go for SSPL ?
3. As far as wm6.5 goes, I've been planning of flashing an Energy ROM, is that a good choice ?
4. Now, after having a cooked ROM on the device, I want to try android, but I want to be able to boot it from my SD card, I've been reading about Exceller's Android Loader, and according to what I've read i could have wm6.5 on my device and be able to dual boot different versions of android, an I gonna have issues with that ? are the android versions on the SD card gonna work properly ?
5. OK, so lets say I can have wm6.5 and 2 other versions of android on the SD card, how would the loaded apps get organized on the SD card ? can I choose when installing apps where they should be installed so I can keep the SD card organized ?
6. Whats the difference between NAND and RAM droid ? If I load Android through the SD card will it have less functionality than if I flash the device ?
7. Is using android from an SD card like emulating ? does it make the device slower, take up more ram, drain battery more ?
8. Does flashing a device with Android delete all traces of wm6.5 ? I ask this cause I want to try and know what is the fastest and more powerful OS i should have and keep on my device.
9. Does changing to android take away functionality from the HD2 remote (skip songs/pause/play/answer calls) ?
Well that's it for now, I have so many more questions but probably by now whoever is reading this has fallen asleep ! LOL
Thank you to anybody who has the patience to help me out.
