Would anyone here be interested in swapping their HD2 (good condition, no scratches on screen at least) for an HD7?
I'd be after maybe say $100 ontop of the deal aswell since the HD7 is a newer model.
Keep your HD2

The HD7 has no real advantages over the HD2 ( http://www.wirefly.com/learn/resour...e-7-vs-htc-hd2-windows-mobile-6-5-comparison/ ) and since WP7 as well as Android, Meego, Ubuntu etc can be put on the HD2 it's not a good deal.

The 720p is a feature enabled by WP7 in the HD2 and I think all native WP7 devices have it.

Hi,
Im just curious what Leo users think of the HD Mini and if they plan to downsize?
Cheers
If i had HTC Mini I would change to Leo..
No way i got my leo for the size and speed, i don't want something less lol
i am a hd one user i would upgrade to hd mini to save money as both hd2 and hd mini will not get wp7 so why spend more money

blasphemy!!
No way... Honestly, I don't know if I could go back to a device smaller than an HD2. It is absolutely perfect for me. I hope this size is more common in new HTC devices. I would hate to ever have to use one of those tiny ass phones again.
downgrading from the snapdragon will certainly be noticable on the mini. The size may be tempting for some its not for me.
most of us both the HD2 for the big screen so why downsize?
I'm tempted to downsize to a smaller, less powerful, rubbish WM 6.5.x version of the HD2 - sounds like a bargain*
* Not really, what a silly question!!! lol
NO WAY...............................
Only someone out of their friggin mind would do such a lame thing!

+1 I agree
Lmao this should be moved to the LOL section of XDA (we do have such a thing, right??? Please say right)
I was messing with a friends brand new phone (which phone has left me for the time being lol).
But all I could say when using it was 'wow, its so small. How do you live with that screen?'
I'd not change my HD2 for the world.
+1 for me too... i the that the HD2 is the best phone on the market at the present time....
whoa!
Such a resounding No!
Can only mean that the HD2 meets its expectations!
Im keen on the HD2 but still like the dpad and hardware buttons on my Kaiser!
The HD Mini is a cut down version of the Touch HD... Not in the same league as the HD2.
Lol, no way for me XD at least don't cut down processor speed
Hi,
Does anyone know a HD MINI WP7 ROM in portuguese? Really liked to have Windows Phone 7 on my HD Mini.
Hope for your answers.
if you will search and read around here you will see that its IMPOSSIBLE to install WP7 on ANY device made prior to WP7 release due to many requirements and stuff..all you can get is a WP7 theme

Yes it did, and the HD2 is the ONLY device that's able to run WP7 and that did come out before WP7 itself.
man, we all raped of our money by htc for hd mini, they could have told us to wait until wp7 is out. J

You could have opened your eyes too, of course. There were rumours talking about WP7 in February 2010. HD Mini came out in May...
(Yap, the green smiley face again)
Envy HD2 owners that able to run BOTH Windows Phone 7 and Android their device?
Anybody here wish that it's available for our G2/DZ too?
but technically, is it even possible?
Let's give your opinion.
Get the HD2 then
Is WP7 really nice that you want to run on a G2/DZ? Personally, I don't like the interface of WP7, but I must admit that if that were possible, I would give it a try and install. Just because I'm a curious cat. LOL.

Me too, not so interest with WP7.
But for the sake of my "geek-ness", I want ALL that, in my phone.
I have both the HD2 and the G2. I run WP7 on the HD. it is flawless. would love to try on thwe vision. however i beleive that the HD2 is the only non-wp7 that has the hardware to run it... if the vision had a stock clock spd of 1GHZ then maybe.....but it does not...no matter it can be overclocked....that is prob the nail in the coffin, plus the button layout is very important... i hope im wrong. but i do love having both..hehe....u can get a HD2' for $29.99 on contract or new line if u can find one

Also the nail in the coffin is that WP7 is not open source

So why WP7 is in HD2?
eadams1975: do check on my flag again. I'm not in US dude.
and the POWER in HD2 is not as good as HTC Vision. :d
did not look at your flag..oops. i have no doubts of potential with the G2 thats why i picked one up for my new mod toy
I have a HD2 too and had installed dual boot WM/Android but I never would have installed WP7. Yerk. And definitely don't want it on my Z!

Do we need a thread about this every week because someone does not understand how to search? NO YOU CANT WP7 IS NOT OPEN SOURCE.
Isn't the only reason WP7 is sort-of on the HD2 that Microsoft/HTC themselves ported it before the other HTC WP7 phones were released ? Maybe I'm wrong but that is my assumption.
WP7 isn't going to happen on the Vision because the necessary drivers will be missing, and without source code it would be a huge job to fix this.

First, thanks for your hard time to remind people to "search before you post".
It's just a GENERAL DISCUSSION on "ENVYING the HD2 owners able to dual boot WP7 and Android".
If in some way, this thread made you feel that it's a request/demand/question, then I'm sorry.
The task would be mammoth, and there's no hardware drivers etc, and not much info on WP7, so not likely to happen. Closing, as this will likely become another flame war
So the 8S looks pretty much the same spec as the venerable HD2 - of which I have had 2 and I am thinking of changing again.
The question is - are there any outstanding issues with WP7 that wold prevent me going for the HD2? And is there any word ont he grapevine of a WP8 port? Perhaps from Cotulla?
no chance for HD2 to get WP8.... we get WP7.8...

Real and old news, those pics were from months ago. Cotulla has now given up development on the HD2 though.

He's decided that the HD2's hardware is simply too old and outdated to continue developing on. As for the second question, I honestly don't have any idea since I'm no dev.

Far from perfect, but it would definitely be a lot better and I'd probably still be using mine right now.
