Can anyone write step to step what to do when installing wm 06.. please is very urgent... THANKS - HVALA
yes please would love an answer to this question, not sure how to install the files for the wm6 for the SX66.

for other lake cab.rar put it in folder EXTROM on your storage card it will automatic execute when your finish flash.
there's alot custom rom for BA, like Explode, Sun_dream, Swampy n PDA_Viet depend which one your like and added software in the ROM

how to install android on tytn ii?

is there an easy way to do this?
ive istalled xdandroid, but the screen isnt visible?
is this in the wrong place? ive managed to find this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5602064&postcount=1195
am i right in saying, as long as i run from sd card it wont flash over windows?
ive since managed to get 1.5 working but not sure i dare install this as i dont want to ruin the tytn ii?!
Don't worry, running Android under haret does not touch your windows install.
ok thanks.. sorry about all the questions, but to get this polymod 2.1g running i need to do the following:
get the base files
whack them in a folder called andboot on sd card
paste androidinstall.tgz in there
change default.txt to point to zimage-eclair
run haret
when promted hold dpad
this gives me that same as the fat32 picture on here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5602064&postcount=1195
(this is as far as i dared go)
pick 1.install system ?
then select yes wipe system?
and thats it? i dont have to point it to androidinstall.tgz anywhere?
and just to confirm it will only give me the options to install over windows if i run from the internal memory?
sorry again for the q's, just want to be certain i do it right and dont muck it up...
also what is not fully working in this release?
and thanks for your response also...
sorry to keep posting on here, does the above sound correct?

HI,
Go to HTC site>support>download>ROM upgrade and choose appropriate ROM upgrade for your phone
Change the .exe to .zip and
Extract with winrar or 7z the RUU_Leo_HTC_****************************_Ship.zip
find the larger *.nbh file and rename it to leoimg.nbh and place this file on an sd card that is 4gb or less
and reboot to bootloader (the one with 4 colors,hold volume down button until you see "SEARCHING")
follow the instructions from there
so is possible , thanks

There is no best, it is all a matter of personal taste. Asking for the best is more likely to get you flamed. It is an SD Android, try it, erase it, try another. Repeat until you get one you prefer.
All the SD Androids I've run on the HD2 were rooted.
When it is running Android, it is a fully working Android phone. Before you try the Market get a gmail account (just set one up on the computer) and sign in to the Gmail App, then go to the Market. So any apps you download from the market will work, provided that they would work on a similar Android phone. I've downloaded some games and they either didn't work or the graphics were so poor, but in general the vast amount of downloaded apps I've used worked fine.

first check the SD builds forum - easier as no flashing required, then pick one (e.g. ACA my personal favorite), read the installation instructions (usually just create Android folder on your SD card, then copy the build there), then run using any file manager clrcad.exe and haret.exe which are the android folder, wait for 10-30 minutes until 1st boot is finished, and done
hi thanks for that do you have direct links on these you could put up

links are marked by brownish font by default, check my previous post,
as for SPL, HSPL etc., you don't need to bother as long as you run Android from SD, that's the beauty of SD builds, enjoy full functionality of android, without the hassle and risk of bricking your device
some general FAQs here and here, but if you want to start fast, you can read those later, installing an SD build is safe

That SPL and radio version are fine, just download the ROM, extract it, click on CLRCD, then HARET, then you're running Android.
And ACA is by far the best ROM you're going to find

first boot can take up to 20-30 minutes, as the data file (default = 2GB) is created, if nothing happens after that time, remove the battery (fastest way of resetting the device) and try again

what's more to know for the start?
- no need to reinstall from now on, it's just that for now your device will always restart to WinMo, however: find yourself so called "android loader" to automate android loading, there's few of those to choose from, e.g. Android Loader v6.0
- connect android with your google account so your contacts and emails are synced (Settings / Accounts etc...)
- install Battery Monitor Widget, so you always know how much mA your device uses and how much battery is left,
- also search xda for tips on conserving battery power (e.g. disable 3G if not needed, switch off GPS, tweak backlight autobrightness in CM Settings etc.)
- be aware that for now the USB file transfer does not work, to copy files to your HD2 use WinMo or Card Reader or File Expert
- backup often: 1. invest in Titanium Backup, 2. from time to time copy data.img to your PC
- browse through the ACA FAQ and thread (I know it may be hard to read all 14995 messages at once)

All apps are installed on your card, the whole idea of an SD build is that WinMo still sits in ROM, while Android basically consists of two files (sitting in the SD\Android folder) which are mounted at the start: system.ext2 (all system files and apps) and data.img (all user apps and settings). From user point of view you won't notice the difference. Additionally, once you run out of space in your data.img, you can always resize it, there are tools for that, but lets put it aside for now
do you have a link for the andriod bootloader??/
is it easy to install
many thanks

all links are in my previous post, click on the brown text "Android Loader v6.0" to open,
installation is standard for WinMo: while in Windows Mobile, copy the .cab file to your SD Card and run from within any file manager, then it will guide you, also when in doubt search its thread for more info
i have downloaded it there is no cab file when i extract it from the zip folder.

you have this file: File Type: mskip_Android_Loader_V6.0 Final.cab? that's the one, do not try to unpack it on your PC, just copy to SD Card and then run from there
the rar file dont show on the sd card??
do i have to be in winmo for this

How do i put android on Hd2??

Hi all, can anyone help me. How do i put android on htc hd2 without removing windows and are you able to dual boot them or isent this possable
also can you get jelly bean ?
thanks
Please search before posting, there are many guides on how to do this.
Simply, you have to download a rom from the SD development section, put it on the root of your sdcard, go into winmo file manager and tap on clrcad and then haret.
You can also use NativeSD, but you have to look for that yourself.
You must have a compatible radio, and yes, you can have Jellybean. I don't know what you mean by "dualboot", isn't it the same as "run android without removing windows mobile" ?

Once again, search before posting. Literally everything you need to know can be found by searching. Are you so lazy that you can't even browse over to the SD Development section yourself?
Anyway, 1. No it doesn't remove WinMo and 2. There are apps which can do that (search for something like Android Loader, can't remember the name of it).

1- Even if the formus' search is "not working", Google never goes down. You didn't even try to search, did you?
2- No, sorry, it's not possible. (come on, just BROWSE TO THAT SECTION!)
