so i have the HD2 and i am running WM6.5 i am on t-mobile as well.
i have tried to read as many threads as i can. and i am serious looking at doing this. but i need to figure out what some of the things are in the how to's, but that is for a later time.
what i am wondering. does everything work when you dule boot in droid on an SD card.
can i still Tether?
are there functions of the phone that dont work?
can i go back if i had to or is this a one way deal?
do the five buttons do anything once you go droid?
just wondering what if any problems happen when you do this right.
thanks
Everything works....except 720 video recording. Video camera camera quality is still really good though. If you boot from SD you can get back to Wm by simply rebooting. All data is saved on your sdcard.

tethering depends on the rom you install
some builds dont have a working camera otherwise it nearly all works
yes you can go back
yes the hardware buttons still work and are functioning
so which versions of Rom do support tethering
If i were you,i wouldn't hesitate and install Android NAND build. Most of them support tethering and work perfectly fast and stable

which rom support 720p video recording?
so far none i think (correct me if i'm wrong)
but the devs are working on it and i guess it wont be very long until it'll work
Just start with the NAND built,you won't regret it.
Just look out for certain roms and their kernels, some hace a VERY high battery drain

Is this safe? I don't trust builds unless they're released by someone on here....
Whats with the android.cab? What do you do with that and whats it for?

I believe the android.cab is like an autoboot from winmo (I personally didn't install it) for those that may not have one. As for the rest of the rom, well I understand your caution, but as with anything, no one is forcing you to install it. There is an inherent risk with ANY rom on this forum. Using caution is wise, so what I did is I compared the files to other roms I have used and saw that they matched up, I have installed it (with the attached 2gb image), it's running now, you have to select the English language, unless you understand either of the other 2 Chinese languages available. From there the setup was the same as the other HD roms. Testing it now, will report results later. So far so good...
Hi, have you asked about GPC before posting this?
OMG the camera quality compared to all other builds i used before is AMAZING !
After turning off the handwriting in options i think it is my new daily Android.
And the camcorder seems to record in 720p but we are not able to playback...
great build..but data icon dont animate..

I concure about to put it through its passes. i decided to test this build just for the 720P recording...wanted to see if it was indeed working. and for sure it is. as well the cam pic quality is very good. have not tested sound quality as of yet. waiting for the build to do a full update from the market before i start really testing it out...first impressions are good...will report back later today after more use.
Just tried this build and it's looking VERY promising. i tried the other Desire HD build with the camera fix but the camcorder still wasn't working on it and for some reason every time i tried to get into the market it would force close. as for the android cab..yeah,i wasn't sure what that was so i just thru it into the android folder along with the media folder.i tried the camcorder and it's working.it also played back my video. i know some were sayn that they didn't have playback on their camcorder. i may not go back to any other android build. i think i found my holly grail of android builds !
Just to clarify, this can record at 1280x720 but can't play it back?
ive seen a few posts that say windows phone 7 on hd2 has 720p recording why doesnt android have that if it does can somebody point me to the right rom for it
Search it up and you'll find answers. Do some half assed search and you're not helping anyone.

As far as I know there isn't any HD2 android rom that has 720p recording capabilities at 15 or 25 or 30 frames/sec. That is the only thing missing from making the phone wonderfull.
I looked for many threads and blogs to see is somebody has managed to do it.
Check this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11417869
They said : NOTE we are enabling HD 720 recording for you but currently it is only working @ about i think evo1rs said 1.5 frames a second ;/ but all the current modes that you have will work much smoother and better in quality then before. really really good work evo1rs ).
So not yet the quality that we want....and that is a sd rom not a nand.
I really hope that in the near future someone will figure this one out
Hello, I have been following the development of CM9 for a while now. Almost all roms can not get the camera working. I read there is a change in the framework and that is why it is now hard for older phones. But what has changed to stop the camera? Is the camera a hard device to get drivers for? Any clarity would be amazing just so I can understand the issue. Many thanks
It's only a matter of time I think before they get it sorted.
I just tried my first ICS based rom yesterday on my SGS2 and it is almost perfect, really good.
Camera works, but no video function (for me anyway!)
Exciting times.
I agree with thomss79. "Only a matter of time". Also the drivers are important. Looking through the threads on here, some drivers, and or source code, has been released for the Atrix from Nvidia and Moto. Not sure if that will help ICS, camera (and kernel) tho. Anyway, the devs on here should sort it out before too long. Thought i would be stuck on Froyo ( 2.2.2 ) forever. Unlocked and tried nearly all roms now, including early ICS
I heard drivers were an issue for CM9. I'll wait A LOT before installing ICS anyway, CM7 took a long time to get to this (awesome) point, and I will NOT switch to a less functional ROM just because it looks prettier. I'm extremely happy with CM7 for the time being.
I understand that the camera is not working on CM9 build....and that's ok for now but is there a reason why my gallery is not working?
I can't seem to view mms messages or downloaded pics

Try using quickpic.
When i was on my captivate camera (video and image) worked great on CM9.
Sucks that i'm using a nokia dumbphone atm.
They've had their hands full.. in due time we will have a 100% functioning rom.

thanks for the tip. quickpic works great. have access to my pics
Regarding why, as far as I know it's due to camera API changes in ICS. This causes troubles for the way cameras work earlier, and requires new driver. Again I'm not completely sure, this is just something I picked up in other threads. On a side note, the camera is mostly working in turl's new builds (and jokersax's) over at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445052 as I'm sure you're aware . Hope that clears some confusion!
Issues when downgrading
Though I was just fiddling around with CM9 and Ice cream sandwich, when I downgraded back to 2.3.4(stock), the camera app refused to work. Camera app just crashes. Is there any permanent change that CM9 does to the device interface that may be causing this.
Thanks
Shouldn't be anything permanent. How did you revert to stock?

You really just dont know what you're missing. The camera DOES work...to everyone saying it doesnt...well, thats just not 100% true. There are significant problems, some lag and delays, but it IS functional.
Using a camera app usually cures all the problems tho.

I'd suggest formatting /system and then do a regular data wipe then reinstall and see if that works.

I flash the stock rom using fastboot, i.e. fastboot flash system system.img, so I'm assuming that would format the /system directory. Im still a noob at this so any advice would be much appreciated. Also, the camera does not work in the new cm9 beta, so I am assuming there is some sort of firmware issue with the camera.
Thanks
I would definitely try reflashing, cause the camera is working for me on Jokersax's latest build.
front camera
Also, the front camera works when I use camera 360, so it seems to be a device driver/ firmware issue. Anyone else having similar problems?
So I am not usually the guy to post new threads. Most everything I need I can find already. But after I was video recording my son at the park today and missed yet another video due to FC issues I guess it's time to finally ask. I have had my HD2 running some android rom or another for almost 2 years. I presently have CM7 Tytung v 3.8.5-MAGLDR. The reason I am asking this here and not in that thread is because it has always been an issue regardless of the ROM I am running at the time. The video recorder force closes. It's that simple. It works intermittently and then it will inevitably force close and can not be re-opened. The only fix is to reboot the phone. I have tried about every camera/video app in the Play store. I have flashed different cameras. My wife also has an HD2 Tmobile the exact phone as me and has the exact same issue as me. The video recorder force closes. I have to wonder if I am just missing something simple? Is there an app or something to flash differently? I recently had WP7 on my HD2 and the camera was AWESOME ! WP7 just doesn't do what Droid does.I am open to suggestions. Is this a known issue I am just forced to deal with on my HD2? How can I make my Iphone buddies stop laughing at my force closing Android HD2?

Youre not alone, same thing happens to me :/ no matter the ROM, i remember reading a thread about it but what i read didnt really help. It said something about not using the fix because most newer ROMs have the fix installed. So i didnt bother downloading it and cant find the thread anymore. Im gonna go look fo rit. hope others can help us both!
I found this earlier today here on the XDA site "props to whomever it came from " I just did a random search and found it. I was using my phone so I'm not sure the page exactly. Never the less I unistalled the stock camera via Titanium Backup and flashed this through CM Recovery. It has a video feature and a decent camera interface. So far no lock ups. Only this afternoon though. Time will tell. I've been running test to try and fool it. Using lots of memory, taking multiple shots switching back and forth, rebooting etc. So far its worked. Try it out, lemme know if it works.
Well, I had been using a CM7 Nightly neared build with a few mods that jar never failed me with camera and camcorder- it was so dependable that I have it on my old, some-hard-keys-dont-work HD2 because am using ICS primarily nowadays.
I'll post what changes I make later, and can post the ROM itself here if anyone wants to try...

<OT> Whoa bro! Go eay on smilies and ......... - it makes your post pretty hard to read, especially on the XDA app!</OT>
*Update* So after almost two years of agony I may have finally found a fix. The .zip file I posted earlier has worked so far. I fooled around with it all day yesterday and last night as well as this morning. I tried everything I know to make it crash from running multiple apps, opening a camera during a call, playing music then opening the camera etc. Rebooted a couple of times. Still not crash. I'll keep posting here with status updates. I found this yesterday on the XDA site. I just did a Google search. I am not sure who originaly posted this .zip file. If it continues to work I will give them a hug
Sorry for posting it here for the simple reason that I'm new here and hence not able to post anything in the development section. Nice work here! Tested on a TW T8585 LEO512 with DataOnExt and almost everything is working here: smooth transitions, working sound and HDA (not perfect, i.e. defective 720p decoding but useable with lower definition), seemingly working SD mounting (test not done yet), smooth Rosie and fast WiFi/3G (if only the latter didn't crash that often).
Nevertheless, problems/bugs are as follows:
1. Bluetooth detectable but no working scan nor successful pairing.
2. Camcorder crashes upon mode changing/simply doesn't work.
3. Long pressing hardware home button doesn't give background management
Back to the title. Please check your update_script and look for the 49* lines with a text editor (I suggest Jota+), delete the doubled parentheses, repack, flash and enjoy!
Okay even more exact:
493delete("/data/framework/HTCDev.odex"));
494delete("/data/framework/HTCExtension.odex"));
495delete("/data/framework/framework.odex"));
Look for these
And please, could someone be so kind as to post a link in the corresponding thread in the Dev section? Big thx here!

Having a hard time uploading the modded ROM... WiFi/3G works fine without modding, only integrated ICS GApps from 2012 instead. Can you tell me more about the ROM you mentioned in the main thread? Is that actually the one from the link you posted (mediafire), i.e. ville2ics? Do you consider it being capable of daily use or at least better than this one? Does sound recording work (voice input/voice messages)? Waiting for your reply!

While Play Store doesn't work very well (same situation), since the base is changed to CM9 (you could observe that by showing the Recent Apps screen with a 3rd-party app, which is of AOSP style), the sound is great and sync works after I've swapped the GApps from CM9. HWA is also important for running certain games. So after all this ROM works better for me. My daily driver remains CM11 from tytung, nevertheless. As a second mobile, this phone is still quite a reliable device apart from being an open, reverse engineered piece of hardware.
