Best ROM to install on HD2

Hi
I will be getting an HTC HD2 in a few days and I am planning on loading the Android Froyo OS, and will be using it as my main system.
But looking through all those threads, I am stuck as to where to begin.
I need to find the latest and best NAND ROM for the HD2, since I intend to do all this hopefully just one time.
I would appreciate any guides that would get me rolling in the right direction.
thanks

Personal opinion
Hi,
I have tried many ROM till now, infact mostly all the ROMs. The best for my purpose ( since I am a heavy user ) is HyperDroidGingerbreadV1.2.
Benefits:-
1. Tweeked
2. Super Speed
3. Battery saver
4. Nice UI
5. Very responsive.
PS: Do give it a try.

I suggest you go to the forum and just read. You will find lots of tutorials on how to install and tweak the roms. You will find multiple roms and each has unique features. What I have done, and what I suggest for you, is just tried a bunch of different roms to see what works best for me. Try them all and see what you like the most. Part of the fun of having the HD2 is all the different things you can do with it.

This question/topic is frowned upon on XDA simply because its asked over and over again and there is no real answer as its subjective.
What is "best" for one person isnt always "best" for another and you may experience problems that another person didnt on his hardware.
There is no point in just asking what is the best one to install, The best thing you can do is to go read some guides etc, research as much info as you can and then try various roms until you find one that you like best or works best for YOU.

Do I need to still have windows on the phone to be able to install Android, or can it be done on its own?

Depends if you're installing a ROM or NAND.
ROMs install on your media card and require WinMo to boot the phone, NANDS replace WinMo.
Note that ROMs and NANDs are located in different sections of the forum.

You can install SD builds or NAND builds. SD builds are just copied to your SD card and you boot them from within Windows, but NAND builds replace Windows. Both types of build are ROMs.

I would prefer the NAND ROMS. I really don't like windows at all.
Can't find the guide to help me do the NAND install.

Nay, dear sir. A ROM refers to software flashed to internal memory, whilst a build refers to software installed on an SD card.
Unfortunately a lot of people ignore or are not aware of this convention, but it's a pretty important one to prevent confusion.

Thanks for the correction, but actually ROM is the chip that the build is flashed onto (in the case of NAND). They're all builds, regardless of location

We could be stuck in an endless debate here, because these terms have different kinds of meanings. ROM is also often used as an abbreviation of ROM image, i.e. a image of the firmware on a read-only memory chip (ROM chip). This means that it would be valid to call NAND firmware ROM, and invalid to call SD firmware ROM since it's not meant for read-only memory.
While strictly speaking it is indeed correct to call NAND firmware a build, there has been made a convention (I suppose this is HD2 specific) to keep them seperated.

Casemandan, did I miss something? I have been browsing the JDMS thread for a few days, but don't see how it is "T-Mobile ready." In particular, I'm looking for MMS that comes in the same quality as the sense T-Mobile ready builds. Read a few tips but quality is still sacrificed upon receiving for all gingerbread ROMs I've tried.

Hello and thanks to all.
According to title of this thread , I need a NAND ROM which has a file manger and support Persian language.
Any suggestion ?
Best regards.

To my opinion is it to wait for a stabe gingerbread or (maybe) Honeycomb NAND rom, isnt it?

Thank mate...

i think best rom for hd2 is cyanogen mod7 v2.6 that is android 2.3.2

I like the MIUI build. It has a few hiccups, but great. Love this than the other builds.

[Q] Nand or Sd or??????

Hey guys, I have an htc hd2 that has Coredroid hd2 ver 1.6 on it....I installed this using magldr and daf .....this phone is used, but new to me, and I know nothing about this daf stuff...lol....I want to put Cyanogenmod 7 back on it...I downloaded one version but gave me errors when I tried to use magldr to get it to install...I dont recall the errors....I think some usb thing...afraid to try again...lol
Does using daf.exe in the rom file mean this is a nand configuration on the phone?.....What can I do to get cyanogenmod7 on it?.....Could someone provide me with a direct link to a rom that will work....I thought I had the right ones, but couldnt get it to flash so I chose coredroid...but phone is buggy with that and cm7 rocks.......I would really appreciate it....Sorry...I have googled and oogled all over, but I am gettting deeper in confusion....Thanks so much....Larry

i didnt like a few things about American Android where the DPI of the text was quite small which resulted in a few ugly looking interfaces such as
applications
unlock screen
menu settings etc
notifications bar
dont get me wrong, i used a build from early April 2011
i hope those are resolved by now or could be fixed, which I admit I didnt explore

I would agree as well. AmericanAndroid was my first foray into Android on my HD2 (getting my TP2 to work w/ Android at all was a huge struggle). In any event, it's a build I can use for my day-to-day work. I have everything I need working, 3G, wireless, GPS, texts, phone, gmail, Exchange email, maps, Facebook , twitter, etc...to tell you the truth I haven't gone back to WinMo since. I still like WinMo and NRG's ROM's with all the great customizations that Poyensa, Nordpolcamper,MrBeOTP2, lnando84, etc do. But I saw that I was making my phone more and more like Android, so why not just use Android? Good luck!

I have wp7 on nand and half of my sd, then dual boot sd Android build with the other half, my current build I am trying is BOYPPC honeycomb ginger thingy, developers are getting back into sd builds now the rush to nand has subsided a little, my thoughts are if you have a device capable of running two operating builds via dual boot, why not user it, NAND is just turning your hd2 into a almost hd desire but not quite, WP7 only turns your hd2 into an hd7 almost but not quite, in my many many tests and trials with my hd2 over the last year NAND and SD builds have very little differences now, in fact I find my latest sd build has a minimal unlock lag as apposed to the slightly more lag with the nands.
So really unless your an Android only or wp7 only fan or possibly a windows mobile only fan use the DUAL Force Luke...
WP7 DB Android SD then
Windows mobile 6.5.5 DB android sd next NAND android then WP7
WOULDN'T it be great if we could quad boot

You can change the LCD density to 240 easily using AmeriCanAndroid.

I remember that I did change it to 240, but still somethings was looking funny and odd , but not everything
maybe I should give this a GO again

AmeriCanAndroid SD build is stable enough. Try it.. there's FAQ which will guide you through the set up.

they've actually changed the default dpi again (to 167), but once again its adjustable.
I think it is currently the only stable (near stock) Gingerbread SD rom available?

Me too MMC GB 2.1. Everytime I use american droid I find something to throw me back. So they are not that similar. Where did you get version 3.0?

MccM HD V4.5
A few hours ago. Mr. mccmjoon76 has updated a newest version of MCCM HD v4.5. I am just downloading it and of course will give a try asap when the dl has finished!! I have tried all builds from him and I really like them, mate!!! Thanks very much to Mr. mccmjoon76
For the AmeriCanAndroid builds are very stable and smooth which I have been using since 032611! It hasn't give me much trouble except some programs will only display very small on the screen and I am sure there are ways to fix it but I just don't know how!!!

i use 3 android roms im my sd now. Americandroid is really fast and stable. its looking isnt so good but withsome widgets i have a nicer scene. second is coredroid , a desire hd build ,it is also fast and has sense. third is miui rom, its very nice but has many problems.i flashed many version of it and found a stable one. i tried almost all sd roms in xda, these three are my favourites.

your question is difficult to answer, as only you can chose which ones you'll like
best. there are loads here, i suggest you start reading.
for partitioning
this is the best one i use, its in the wiki

Personally i prefer gingerbread with cm7. All apps and games are working for me. Everything is just great. But its imo simple and minimalistic. But very cool.
There are some other builds like htc sense+gb and miui+gb hybrids out there, but for me not all games like asphalt and apps like swipepad are working. Sense brings nice widgets, a great ui and miui a very great, completly different and very customizable ui with it.
If there are problems with some apps or games with miui like for me, you could test the froyo based build. sense and miui.
Atm im using typhoons cm7 and im very satisfied. Another very great gb cm7 rom is pongsters. Im only using typhoons because its based on daily nightlies. Im sure you will like pongsters ;p or the other great roms out there. Like imilka, boyppc, ndt and so on they are all very great cookers and ive tested all of them.
Best thing is to test a few different roms and decide by yourself whats best for you.
All of those roms are installd by cwm (clockwork mod)
You can do flash your rom, format and partition your sd and lots of more things with it. All over the phone. For best you are reading the install instructions of each rom. The only thing you have to do over pc is to flash recovery layout which is used by your choosn rom amd copy your. zip rom file on sd. Copy files and mount your usb storage with clockwork recovery only. Magldr itselfs could damaging some files.
To partition your 8gb sdcard there is absolutly no pc needed. You have to load into ad recovery (clockwork mod) over magldr, choose advance and format or partition your sdcard. If i remenbering right. Choose 1gb ext partituon and 0mb swap partition and you are rdy to go (install your rom). Remember to do a backup of your files stored on sd.
Best tool to format and partitioning your sdcard is still gparted. But pls, dont format the wrong harddrives ;p
Might other members have some links for you. Im on mobile

Its not the best. Its one of the best. He should try some roms and like everyone did see what he likes by himself.
And i would prefer pongsters hyperdroid gbx with cyanogenmod 7 (CM7) or typhoons CM7. Both very great roms. Typhoons is updated frequently.
Different roms for different tastes.

[Q] Some ROM Suggestions, please.

Hi,
I had flashed a near stock NAND ROM but was constrained on space. Then tried out an SD ROM, still works well, but found it too slow for comfort
Could anyone please suggest a stable, working, daily use (with everything working) NAND ROM with:
1. HTC Sense
2. A2SD
3. Daemon Controller (preferable).
4. Working camcorder and camera without lags.
Believe me, spent a lot of time searching.
I don't care too much about the themes, the stock HTC are good enough for me.
Thanks,
jiggyk
P.S.: If someone could suggest a stable and fast SD ROM having the above (without #2, of course), that too would do and I would be thankful.

All GB Sense ROMs have camcorder bugs, unfortunately, so I don't think there are any ROMs which don't have this. Unless, of course, Froyo Sense is good enough for you. I've found Froyo Sense to be fast, smooth and stable. I would also recommend trying a CM7 ROM (e.g. Typhoon/Hyperdroid) as these are very fast, and can be themed to look like Sense.

Thank You for your prompt reply.
My preference for HTC sense is primarily because it nicely links my facebook, whatsapp, etc. contacts and shows mobile numbers and email addresses of facebook friends far and near who I did not have in my contacts list hitherto.
However, these ROMS you have suggested, do they have A2SD built in? I am also assuming that the camcorder bugs are in the ROMs with sense. Is that correct??

To answer your questions, yes (I think) and yes.

For stable version you can try Nexus One Rom by Tytung.The base is ligther and the rom is smooth but other rom also has its advantage.

as far as im aware,but im using v4.0,not all apps can go to sd though,its the only prob i can't work out.......e.g: when using pyramid rom with a2sd,i downloaded facebook for android,went to settings and moved it to sd card,now the rom im using has a2sd also cos i go to sd-ext folder and all my downloaded apps are there,but facebook is not possible to move via settings,but if no joy i came across a free app in the market called Link2SD AND ALL THE APPS I CAN'T MOVE VIA APPLICATION/SETTINGS I CAN MOVE USING LINK2SD.........so i'm 1 happy guy lol
also,if u wait till tomorrow,he says 4.1 is being released with glitches fix and less bugs,but have a play with this version,if u like it,download v4.1 when released(fri)

if you want sense with everything working and i mean a camcorder at 800x480 rather than 320 then you will be looking at a froyo based rom not a gingerbread rom
personally i have moved from a sense rom to a miui rom and changed to go launcher ex and am more than happy with it, its alot faster than sense

Team Blue Droid have produced an excellent sense 3.5 Rom which looks the business and works far better than many others I have flashed recently on mh EU HD2. I am not that technically minded regarding SD card partition types, but I run mine via SD card after flasing a 1024 partition using CMR and the accompanying DAF.exe.
From reading many threads I understand camcorder is less than perfect on most roms at highest res.

Thanks for your inputs, everyone!
I had the same problem of all apps not going through to the SD, and the remaining memory would not go over 25-30MB at any time, with a near stock Froyo ROM. (Yes, it is a very fast and stable sense ROM). I think I'll take your advice and wait for 4.1 and then see how it goes, will download it over the weekend. Also this Link2SD thing looks interesting!!
The Team Blue ROM looks very impressive indeed, what with the Daemon Controller and all, but, going through the forum, many have had glitches with the wifi, network, etc. I thought I'd wait for this ROM to settle, but now that you say that they aren't making any more.......

Most stable and easy androind build?

Hey, I have a HD2.. And i am new to this forum.
I would like to know i have an spl version of 3.03 something. I want to get android on my phone. the last conversion i did was very unstable. sometimes the dialler didnt work. my signals stopped dropping. apps started to crash.
So this time i want to do the most stable android installation. which i can easily revert back also.
So please help me with this. I dont want it to lag or anything. apps shud run fine. no issue with singals and diallers etc.

Do u want it on NAND (internal memory) or on the SD card?

For both i recommend the Tytung kernel and mod its a great and stable one, i use ics 4.0.4 with kernel 3,2 and cm 9 -rhc2. i use Nand but also its possible in SD. view the treaths.

Hey, I have a HD2.. And i am new to this forum.
I would like to know i have an spl version of 3.03 something. I want to get android on my phone. the last conversion i did was very unstable. sometimes the dialler didnt work. my signals stopped dropping. apps started to crash.
So this time i want to do the most stable android installation. which i can easily revert back also.
So please help me with this. I dont want it to lag or anything. apps shud run fine. no issue with singals and diallers etc.

I use LEO King Rom, it runs well and i have no issues with it, and as far as i know, 720p doesnt play on any ICS rom from my experience.

Typhoon or Hyperdroid have been the fastest builds I've ever used. Haven't seen a bug in months too.

+1 for Energy

It is fast, stable, and Sense 3.5 (the latter is essential for me ).

I used NexusHD2 builds for some time and I really like them. Tytung also releases frequent updates to its kernel as well which were always nice improvement :good:
