Can HD2 run Desire HD stock ROM? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Guys,
I am very new with HTC phone, plan to get a HD2 phone hardware, will not use WM 6.5, want to run Android. I know it can run many custom ROM here.
Just want to know if HD2 can run Desire HD stock ROM?
sorry, if this has been asked before.
Thanks
James

Hi,
Yes,stock ROMS are available.
Please check here:
http://android.hd2roms.com/

no you cannot just download a desire hd rom and flash it to your hd2, they have to be ported across first so im not sure what the above is saying

the above too advance for me, is there a easy way of doing this, like sony phone come with pc software, few clicks wait and restart, then you got flashed lastest ROM.

So I'm guessing you've never heard of CWM?
What he's saying is, you can't just download the desire HD's stock rom, and flash it and expect it to work. E.g. if you go to the HTC website and download the latest desire HD rom there, and try to flash it to the HD2, it won't work.
What you have to do is go into our android development forum, either sd or NAND, and look for a desire HD rom there to flash.
This guide well explain all the quirks of the HD2 NAND world.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021837

you should just read the guides on how to flash android and take a look in the android nand section and all your questions would be answered.
if the above is too advanced you should have bought an desire hd cause this site only showed available android roms for hd2 and has nothing to do with flashing.
just a collection sorted by the newest updated build with a link to it's xda thread.

1st you need to flash HSPL which will enable you to flash custom roms. Choose and install your custom rom. The suggested rom for droid froyo is this--> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=667272%22 since it is by the same guy/team who did the droid froyo software. If you go to http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=735 you will see many different android options and you can download and install something from there. Droid froyo is the 11th post down from the top. Hope it helps. Happy Flashing!!!

actually you need to try by yourself
That's the best way to recognize, which rom is best and suitable for you
well here is my preffered :
ELEGANCIA ROM Series
CR192 DESIRE HD
Kumar's TMOUS HD2 ROM
these all roms are android compatible
so try whichever you like...

[Q] Desire HD Roms

Hey guys, was just looking through the NAND section for android and couldn't find any ROMs which are desire HD based and do not use D2SD (apart from gauner's)
Was just wondering if I overlooked any?
Cheers
I suggest you to try the rafpignas' hd build with data2ext if you dont want to use the d2ext just dont create an ext partition.

Overlooking would imply that you actually looked. Several say either Desire HD or DHD in their title.

Well i guess you should go with old sense (like desire, evo...) and not the new sense (desire HD or Z)
rafdroid light or gauners
Good place to start as a newbie.

Why would a lie about looking through 2 and half pages of a forum?
And I put the question in the development section because there was plenty of others in there and i figured since my question is specifically about NAND dev i'll post in there, If you don't have something constructive to reply you needn't bother.
Anyway, thanks to others, I'm using an EU HD2 which is why I'd need data2ext for most of the ROMs, and I hardly found any which don't use that.
I do like gauner's but for some reason my texts keep getting wiped off the phone without warning, i just open sms and they're gone..

[Q] Which ROM?

I am looking for a NAND ROM for Android 2.1-2.3 with HTC Sense.
I have been told I am looking for a stock desire ROM.
Where can I get such a ROM and what Radio do I use?
Please tell me where to get the Stock Desire ROM as I can't find it anywhere.
And I'm going to be using MAGLDR if that helps.
depends on whther you want a standard desire rom like skinks or a hd version such as imilka or rafpignas
i personally perfere the hd versions and have run roms from both the above and both produce fantastic roms
currently im using ilmilkas hd ram version which is very very fast with rafpignas 1.9 kernel
Thanks
And it will work on NAND, right?
I was going to use clockworkmod to install it.
Do I just copy it to the SD card and boot clockworkmod?
In this circumstance does the CLRCAD and HARET files matter.
you install it on nand, clrcad and haret are for booting from sd card they are not neeed when using nand
rom desire hd

You can also try HD2 CoreDroid HD. It´s a beautiful ROM, very fast, and stable. The instructions to install it are in my signature. The link is here. Let me know whar you think.

When gingerbread comes with a decent dialer and calendar app I will quit Sense. Until then, it is the best interface for me.

Rafdroid HD 4.0.2 is better than the actual Desire HD. My best mate owns one, my HD2 is faster and has longer battery life.
no Sense rom is better,I am sure.

[Q] Getting a New HD2 what first?

So tomorrow I have a brand new HTC HD2 from T-MOUSA arivving brand new. Of course the first thing I wanna do is root it, after I figure out which rom to choose. Before I do that are there some things I should do first right out the box?
1. Using TMO? (if not - unlock)
2. Flash to custom firmware.
3. ... of course, install Android SD and forget about WM

You did not post back here so I was wondering what did you do with your HD2 when you got it.

Custom firmware is custom but it is still Windows Mobile (WM). So if you flash a custom ROM you still have WM but just a way more smooth WM ROM.
Flash it with mgldr then clockwork mod then android nand flash. I like tween typhoon rom

Sorry everyone I totally forgot about this thread. Well when I got the phone the SPL or the radio didn't match the prerequisites it needed to match for the rom I wanted (HD2 CoreDroid DHD V1.6). After 36 hours of reading and researching I figured out I needed to flash a stock rom in order to get the prerequisites I needed. After finding the stock rom, on TMOUS website, I installed in it installed the new radio and spl, the same ones I needed. So I followed the guide and installed HardSPL and then MAGLDR then flashed it with HD2 CoreDroid DHD V1.6 and it worked flawlessly. I would highly recommend this rom for the HD2.

Nice ROM choice there! Your HD2 is going to surprise you a lot more than the newer devices and their surface-appealing specs.

Yes you are using a Froyo ROM, Gingerbread has several advantages over Froyo, one being a better keyboard. Also there is a lot of apps that do not run on Froyo but do on Gingerbread.
hi if i have androied on my phone htc hd2 can i just down load a new rom and install it?
You need to be reading around in the HD2 Android forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=743
Yes, all you need to do is download and install another ROM. There are instructions for installation in whatever ROM you choose to install. There are a lot to choose from.
whats the best one?

Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, Neopolitan, Spumoni?
Really, you can't ask that kind of question around here and expect a serious reply. Try Tytung, that was previously recommended to you. Or Hyperdroid, or AmeriCan Android.
Try any or all of them.
hey sorry im new to this dont know the steps to take like i said its an hdc hd2 and i have android on it im happy whit what i have i just wanted to know if the only thing i have to down load is the new rom and install?
