Hi everyone,
This is my first post in a long time.
Havent been on this board in ages.
I recently purchased a HTC HD2 and thought I figured out how to load Froyo 2.2 on to my HD2.
I load Froyo 2.2 on to HD2 and it works but after it i set it down and not touch it it will not come back on. I tried to reboot and and it loads fine from the sd card.
I followed the instructions here.
Here is the step by step guide on installing Android 2.2 Froyo on your HTC HD 2 easily:
1. The first step is to download this File, unzip and save the contents on your desktop [Or wherever your prefer].
2. Now connect your HTC HD2 with the computer and copy paste the dowloaded file to the root of SD card.
3. Once this is done, disconnect your phone and launch Windows Mobile File Manager.
4. Now in the File Manager, navigate to Android Folder and tap of “CLRCAD” followed by “Haret”.
5. Now wait for the procedure to finish. so not do anything silly at this time because the first boot will take some time so hang on in there.
6. There you go! Your HTC HD2 will reboot into Android. You can now make calls, email, connect to Wi-Fi or Edge and do everything else that you do with a phone.
You can navigate to this link if you are facing any difficulty in installing Android 2.2 Froyo on your HTC HD 2.
The phone is great with Froyo 2.2 but with win 6.5 its kind of ****ty.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for the great work guys. !!!!

I have the same problem. Trying to figure it out.
4.3, what exact build are you using? I'll throw it on my phone and see if I get the same issue.
Also, are you using a custom ROM or a stock one?
I havent touched the rom, wasnt aware that I had to do that.
Dont know how to do it either.
Now I have the problem of me hearing the people sounding like an alien.
4.3 - try load the custom rom first before running android.

sirphunkee - i have a custom ROM and using Clean Version

thanks dmoney
4.3, the "robot voice" is a known issue, and seems to be cleared up by running a non-stock ROM as opposed to a stock one, and supposedly helps overcome other issues as well, but that one in particular. You can find advice on which custom ROM's are recommeded for using when you want to run android, in the HD2 android forum section. Instructions on how to flash to a custom ROM can be found in the "links to cabs, ROM's, how to's..." thread that's stickied at the top of this section.
I'm going to try that froyostone build now (been meaning to anyway)....4.3, let me know if you're trying a different one than that.
i used FroyoStone_sense.7z

gotcha, thank you. I'm loading the clean version as I write this, I'll check that out and then try the sense version. Sounds like the problem is independent of sense though.
h t t p://gamesquare.co.uk/froyostone.htm
Im using the same set-up that darkstone recomends.......
Rom: Miri WM6.5x V17.6
Radio: 2.10.50.26
Builds: Mattcnexus & FroyoStone_Sense
Multiboot, Desktop Android & Ubuntu Launcher - EBL2.1
Used to have the "Sleep of Death" issue also, stop using taskiller & usbmount. All good now. You definately need to flash the stock rom, try the one I recomended it's super stable. Good Luck !
what is the difference between spl and hspl? I have SPL-2.08.0000 8G XE,

HSPL is just a specific type of SPL. Make sure you read this guide, which tells you all about flashing on the HD2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621930
Then, once you have all that down, you can get the HSPL you need ("HSPL3") here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893
Thanks GOD!!!
I think I have done right.
I flashed it with the HSPL
Then downloaded Kumar's TMOUS Premium V2.4.1 S23569 B2.14.nbh for tomoible htc HD2
unzipped it in to a desktop file with the custom.ruu file and Kumar's TMOUS Premium V2.4.1 S23569 B2.14.nbh
Now i have to test it out and see if froyo 2.2 will work..
i was able to Flash my HTC HD2 with HSPL
And then load the Kumar's TMOUS Premium V2.4.1 S23569 B2.14.nbh
I then tried to load the froyo 2.2 on the phone which loaded after a difficult time locating the sd file folder.
After I loaded it on I still have the trouble of the alien radio talking. Is there a way to fix the alien radio thing.
Also Kumar's TMOUS Premium V2.4.1 S23569 B2.14.nbh seems to be using Edge instead of 3G. Is there anyway to change this? If I wanted edge I would have stuck with my Iphone.
The 3G and the big screen was my primary factor in switching to htc hd2.
This phone sucks with WM 6.5. But the screen size and Froyo 2.2 makes up for it. To bad HTC made a bad decision to load WM instead of android. What a loss
Any help from sirphunkee/God or any one that has knowledge in this would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Awww come on, WinMo isn't that bad. I actually like it.
I am using Aug 6 Energy Cookie rom, 2.10.50.26 radio and using Darkstone Froyo 2.1 clean version. I don't have the robo voice problem.
Oh yeah, if you are using a T-Mous hd2 on At&t, you won't get 3g service. T-Mo and At&t use different bands for 3g.
so there is no way to escape the robot voice without flashing a rom?

Flashing a rom seems to be the only solution right now. It's easy (and kind of fun) to flash a rom. Read through this a few times and follow the directions exactly and you'll have it flashed in no time.

HELP!!!
So I flashed my HD2 to Windows Phone 7 and everything works fine there. However, I tried to Dual Boot and partition my SD card to run Android from SD. I've tried 2 different ROMS and i keep encountering the same problem. When I try to boot into ANDROID it makes it all the way to the UNLOCK SCREEN and then the touch screen becomes unresponsive and says NO SERVICE.
I posted this here because my NAND is WP7. Just wanted to see if anyone could help me out. And by the way my Radio is 2.15.50 I believe because thats what I installed to run WP7 from NAND.
Anything will help!

Are you using android builds that are compatible with magldr? If not, most builds need to have their init.rc files edited to work properly with magldr. There's a thread in the sd android dev section about it, also I have many builds that I edited to work with magldr. What builds are you trying? And are they edited to work with magldr?
Ahhh that might be it. I've tried MDJ's Desire HD v4.6 build and the Desire Z NAND/SD Build thats currently up on the android forums.

hi im trying to get typhoon 2.6.3 to work, but unresponsive touch screen occurs. anything to be done about it?
i recently purchased HTC HD2 phone that comes with windows mobile 6.5.
I don't have a problem with it but some friends praised Android. I tried froyo on my sd card but it didn't work very well. it crashed and didn't load properly. Then someone told me that i've to remove windows mobile and install android fresh.
Can anyone suggest if android runs well on htc hd2? will i be able to use camera, phone, wifi, data, gps with android? But primarily it should work like any phone out there, after all its a phone.
Go to the HD2 Android Dev forum. There should be AmeriCanDroid.
That's a good stable build that I'm using.
SD base.
As far as I remember, AmeriCanDroid is for US T-Mobile users. If you use european version then I would suggest trying ROMs by Rafdroid (it's of course only my suggestion, but his ROMs are most stable for me.)
go to android NAND development and search for the stickies. there is a link which show a lot of android builds.
you can choose by yourself what kind of android you prefer (sense builds, stock froyo, gingerbread etc.) just give it a try
I´m personally on typhoons cm7 which runs really great.
but do i have to remove my existing windows mobile on my htc hd2?
will i be able to sync all my contacts, text messages with android?
Android works with google, so you can put the contacts in your gmail and it will sync with android on the telephone. Text messages wont work as far as I know
Just like the other people say, take a look in the android nand section and read the sticky's, they tell you everything you need to know.
I'm on the HyperDroid and works great
read thist thread, it will help you to decide.
ps: mods, this thread should be stick. its very helpfull to noods and more advanced users

Actually, they post US and ex-US builds each time a new build is released. Many ex-US users post there, but far too many US and ex-US ask the same tired questions over and over. Read the FAQ, and enjoy a good build.
id go for this thread HERE, which should help you get started.

I followed the steps provided at thread provided by gizmolisa2006.
After step 3 was done, which was to install MAGLDR 1.13 and it flashed (if thats the correct word) ROM to 2.00.000.0 by running ROMUpdateUtility.exe.
after that i pressed the power key and it doesn't go into bootloader or the magldr menu doesn't come up. i did what it said in that video as well. but no luck.
now my hd2 is stuck on white background with pink "Stick Together" logo.
Can anyone please help?
Did you flash HSPL first?

help... i don't really know what type HTC HD2 i m using.. i m confused by so many types in the market, leoxxxx...t-mobile, htc sense?
i suggest hyperdroidgbx cm7 v1.0.3 runs great super fast and stable as all hell for me...only froze on me once so far and it was while i was streaming videos using flash...
great build
The most important thing is to get proficient at flashing your hd2 so that you can try out a few builds. Once you get hspl and magloader on your phone, I recommend coredroid simply because the instructions for getting clockwork recovery on your phone and installing coredroid are laid out fairly clear in a file with the download. From there you can try flashing other builds if coredroid doesn't suit your needs. I'm currently using hyperdroid and it's great for me.
recently i got a hd2 from tmobile windows 6.5 and SPL 2.10 with 1024 ROM i put an android sd on my root sd card and i wasn't able to boot it... what should i do? im newbie and don't wanna brick my phone... i wanna boot android 2.3.3 from my SD, i have tried ubuntu on it and it works perfect.

If you are just wanting to boot Android from SD card, unless you seriously screw up by doing something should not be doing, you are not going to brick your HD2. Click on my guide in my sig to learn some about your HD2 and also make sure to go to the bottom of my guide which is the bottom of post #3 and read the warning about the radio versions you can not flash to the HD2 or you will brick it. PM me if you need to, but please read the stickie threads and the links to guides in the stickie roll up threads also. Ckeck out the "New to XDA?" link in my sig to learn how to get the most out of XDA. Happy hunting!

Just so you know it is not unusual for a SD card build to not boot all the way up on the first time around. But bit usually if you do a reset and try booting it again it boots. Look into getting yourself a dual boot app too, just go to HD2 Windows Mobile themes and apps and do a search for Dual Boot apps or something like that. Turning HTC Sense hels with running Android from SD and also booting Android with in the first 10 to 15 secounds after Windows Mobile boots up helps out to, this is to keep Windows Mobile from establishing a data connection.
If you can't boot download a daf and run daf through USB flasher in magldr

Not being a smart a** but you do realize the OP is talking about running Android from SD card and not NAND right?
At the OP you said you run Unbuntu so you migbt want to check this article out that was in the Portal and follow the dev that is working on it. He is working on a app to " Hot Boot Into Debian From Android in the HD2" I think you might be interested in this, it is a short video there as well.

thanks! i'm interested on that because im able to run android 2.3.3 from SD but when i use it runs smooth and fast but if i power off the screen and stay there for some time it freezes and need to remove the battery.. so would be nice if i can launch ubuntu from android so i would install in nand and launch ubuntu from it.
thanks i've just downloaded the apk from that tool and i'll try it on my HD2.
hi, i know i've asked so many things here, but i still confused,
i read about HD2 leos on here and search here for ROMS for my HD2 but they don't say anything clear.
i was thinking on upgrade it with the official tmobile rom 3.14 i enter my imei and it says it's compatible but, my cellphone it's unlocked, do u know if i upgrade it with the official tmobile update it will get locked again?
i want to upgrade with the official because i don't know if flash HSPL3 on my TMOUS 1024 HD2:
OS Version: 5.2.21892 (21892.5.0.89)
Manila Version: 2.5.20121412.2
ROM Version: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio Version: 2.10.50.26
and i notice that my battery doesn't last that much and i have wifi turned off... and want a better rom, if not a custom rom maybe the official upgrade but i want to know what about if my cellphone locks again to T-Mobile and i can't use it with my carrier.

For the first question ... you can't screw nothing unless you install wrong radio.
You can try this stock 3.5 sense - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1316632.
