[Q] Triple boot WP7, Droid and WinMo 6.5? - HD2 General

Hey All,
I am new to the HD2, i bought it after i gave my HTC Desire to my girlfriend and found out the HD7 i got was not correct for my network (dodgy australian thing). So i sold the HD7 an with the money bought a HD2 and had some spare
What i want to do is see if I can triple boot the HD2. That is use WinMo 6.5 on the nand and boot WP7 and Android from SD.
I have found this article:
http://www.techautos.com/2011/01/24/htc-hd2-triple-boots-windows-phone-7-android-winmo-6-5/
it links to XDA here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913815
I have read that thread and it seems to deal with dual booting WP7 and Android... have i read it wrong and these are the instructions for triple booting?
If they arnt, is it possible to even triple boot these os'es or is simply impossible at this stage?
Thanks for any help!

Hi,
Triple booting is NOT an option.
I do not think there is any way of booting WM 6.5 or 7 from sd.
So you are left with any other combination.

There was work on getting WM6.5 booting from SD but I think that has been abandoned.
Currently you can boot...
NAND: Android, WM, WP (One or the other)
SD: Android, Ubuntu, Meego

Being able to boot WP7 from SD would be awesome..

You can surely flash WP7 ROM. Just follow the guidelines carefully and you will be OK. There is no duel boot right now however.
That will remove your Android from the phone, and there is a dual boot, but it involves having Android on the SD Card and WP7 on the NAND.
There are ALOT of threads that cover how to flash NAND Roms back and forth. Its all done through Magldr.
If you have any more questions please ask in one of the established threads which can provide more information without having to start a new thread.
Thread closed.

HD2 Win6.5 + Win7

Hello xdadevs,
i have a question, is it possible to have win6.5 and win7.0 installed on a HTC HD2?
for example win6.5 on device and win7.0 on SD card?
i tried to find some info in the current threads but didnt find anything
thank you in advance
Hello.
It's not possible yet (maybe in future...?). Those are your posibilities:
- Windows Mobile from NAND (stock).
- WM6.5 in NAND, Android from SD Card.
- Android from NAND (no WM).
- Windows Phone 7 in NAND.
- Windows Phone 7 in NAND, Android from SD Card.
There are also other choices like WM in NAND and Ubuntu from sdcard (via HaRET.exe), but those are most popular.
Cotulla said that he is working on a SD version of WM6.5, so if that gets released, you have have wp7 on NAND and WM65 on SD... but it may be a while before that gets released.
thank u so much ppl, ill be in touch with forum to check cotulla's progress
ps:zarathustrax r we ...somehow related ? hehehe (your nick)

LOL... yeah, the first 3 letters are the same. I took my nick from Nietszche's book, which I read a lot in my youth... then just added an X. Don't remember exactly why... I think I was going for something like Zarathustra-X, but didn't separate the X or capitalize it. I don't know exactly what I was thinking at the time... it was a few years ago.
As far as progress about WM65 for SD, cotulla probably won't give updates on progress... probably will just release it suddenly when it's done... if it even works out and he finishes it. It's probably not a high priority for him with all the other projects he's working on, especially now that he's working on magldr for the Rhodium, too. Hopefully we'll see it in the next few months though. I look forward to tribooting wp7, android and WM65.
Android + WM on NAND

No you can only have one OS at a time in NAND. One because of limited space in NAND and to you would have to parition it even if you did have enough space and I do not think you can partition the NAND memory of a device as it is not like a actual hard drive or SD card.

just got hd2 i want dual boot

can someone give me a good guide to dual boot, and a good combination of two roms?
It depends what do you want to dual boot?
Do you want to dual boot Windows Mobile and Android from SD card?
Or do you want to dual boot Windows Phone 7 and Android from SD card?
Also interest
Hello,
I'm also interst by dual boot SD/NAnd
I know W7 NAnd/Droid SD is possible but Droid Nand /W7 SD is possible ?
Thanks
After being frustrated with WM6.5 for over a year, then trying a few SD card roms I'd recommend a CM7 nand rom as your base. Very lightweight and blisteringly fast. Might dual boot myself soon but I'm so happy with my "new" phone now it's low down my priority list.
To be honest sense isn't my cup of tea either, my wife's Desire HD appears less slick than my HD2 on CM7 hyperdroid, not even same league, as long as you can live without senses gimmicks.
3 replies, and no one has answered his question. geez.
here's a link to the guide. if this doesn't help, then i don't know what will. it's completely step-by-step:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931192
Also, i would suggest trying to flash a NAND ROM on your HD2. The phone is much faster.

[Q] dual boot wm & wp7

Hi everyone ,
Did anybody try to run wm from wp7? I know that dual boot between wp7 and android (from which wm can be started) is possible, but I don't need the latter since WiFi doesn't work there for my device.
I wonder if there is a simpler way.
Thanks in advance!

No, Cant be done.
Both OS's need to be booted from NAND. DFT was trying to work on a way to get WM booted from SD but its been abandoned.
You can only...
WM on NAND + Android on SD
Android on NAND + Android on SD
WP on NAND + Android on SD
Thats it.
Thanks for the answer.
You have saved my time and perhaps wp7 installation
It is unfortunate actually, since there are still some applications in wm that are not implemented in wp7..
shame they stopped working on this, it would trully be amazing if they could get that to work

[Q] Dual boot WP7 mango and android which latest sd build can i use

Dual boot WP7 mango and android from the same sd card which latest sd build can i use ?
Hey friends as mentioned in the title I just want to know out of all the amazing sd builds which one can I use to dual boot with WP7. i tried a few but all say that they are compatible to boot with WM6.5 but couldnt find a sd build capable of dual booting with WP7 and also when looking for such a ROM what are the basic things I should check please advise ( My main intention of using android would be for gaming) Awaiting your help CHEERS
You read it wrong and that is your problem. Compatible with WM6.5 doesn't mean they are incompatible to boot with WP7 or Mango.

Oops my bad thanks for the reply mate but when i try to boot several roms are giving me an error dont remember the error though will post the error as I go home thanks again, but does this mean all sd builds are compatible with dual booting Wp7
No they are not all roms compatible but only the sd roms that say in title that are for magldr.Ιn some sd roms like ics roms that are magldr compatible you can run them directly.For older roms in the rom thread it says what file you must change to make the rom to boot from magldr

With MAGLDR.
Once you have your WP7.5 installed, unlock the card (depending on the WP version, might or might not be required), insert into a card reader and create a folder in the ROOT called ICS. Then unzip and transfer your Android ICS version into that folder. Reinsert card. In MAGLDR go to Services, BootSettings, Boot source and select: 1. Android from SD, then in the same place move to 4.AD SD Dir and select ICS (which is the folder into which you transferred your Android install).
When booting you will have your WP in a first position and your Android second.

Yes, Mango is installed on Nand, so you upgrade WM6.5 to Mango first, then you get your Android to run off SD.
'mango flavored icecream'??? REALLY?
