I guess you dont wanna use the search function here, so google these things
1. HD2 SPL Downgrade (If Applicable)
2. Hard SPL2
3. Magldr HD2 install
4. CWM for Magldr install
5. Install Android ROM on HD2
Good luck my digital brother

i think this post is really what you should take a look at. its very detailed and should give you all the info & software you'll need to install android to your nand. it is written so that anyone can understand and in simple terms.
then after you install Android a good question to ask your friend would be does he want a sence rom or something else. this website here is the easiest way to search for Android ROMs that are listed here on XDA. i would also click "show all android roms/builds" because there are a lot of older ROMs that are still as great or better then some of the newer ROMs out there. i could suggest some but im sure what i like may differ from your friends so i would take a close look at each ROM from the site listed above. to shorten the list down some for you i probably wouldn't look at ROMs that haven't been updated since like april.
His choices in ROMs would be sence based, a non-sence based like cyanogen or a miui based ROM similar to that of the iphone but with widgets.
unlocking a phone refers to sim unlocking where as rooting a phone refers to gain root/superuser access what is what your trying to do.

Hey you can unlock your HTC HD2 using the codes. There are many providers offer this unlocking service.If you need,get it from http://www.unlocking4u.com/ ..After getting the code, you may follow the instructions here,
1. Switch ON your HTC HD2 with a Not ACCEPTED SIM Card.
2. If your HTC HD2 asks for a PIN code, then enter your SIM card PIN and press OK.
3. HTC HD2 will ask to enter an "unlock code".
4. Enter Unlock Code we send to you.
5. Your HTC HD2 is now unlocked.
*NOT ACCEPTED : We mean, to use a Sim card from a network other than the network your HTC HD2 is locked to. .

1. Don't bring back old threads which have already been solved unless you are asking a similar question and that thread is the best place to ask it.
2. Did you even read his post? He used the word 'unlock' incorrectly, he meant to ask how to flash Android.

Guys, no need to be mean...
@asterixhashir
If you want official WinMo ROM you can download it directly from HTC website, Radio is included.
The Android version you are looking for it is called NexusHD2 v2.7. It is very stable and compiled from source of Nexus One.
I'm ok to explain smth to a man who just don't understand how things work. He should try first.
BTW see the name of the thread. He didn't bother reading any rooles.

If website say that it not a ROM for your telephone then you are doing something wrong.
Make sure you select the right phone from list in htc website or that you enter the right code number.
You can not have both installed in NAND. You can find NexusHD2 if you just search. If you want to have both install WinMo and find an SD Android version to put in your SDcard.
It is not easy for us to explain you in 1 post what we have learned by reading countless times the threads here.
If you can't find any solution by yourself then try finding some friend of yours who understand better and help you.
Else you can always find someone to pay to fix your device.
Without wishing to appear rude it is a tad difficult to understand you.
Ii believe you are unable to download the correct official rom for your device. this is sometimes the case that your serial number is not accepted by htc as they offer different roms for different carriers.
try getting YOUR official rom off of this thread. good luck.

There are no tmous roms on HTC site at all. Only on T-Mobile.com, and it will ask for your IMEI not serial.

Am I the only one who thinks this dude is a troll?
i dont no more abt this phone bcz i m using for 3 to 4 months ok and i m not always bzy in these kinds of things ..tel me where can i find the official rom not the custom one ok and tell m eabt the best andriod sd rom for hd2
asterixhashir < you can flash back to the original rom that was intended for your hd2.
don't mess around with android roms if you don't know how to do your own homework.
download the the original rom for your t-mobile hd2 and open the exe file with winrar - extract the file "RUU_signed.nbh" and rename it "leoimg.nbh" - copy this file to the root of your sd card - restart your phone while holding on to the volume down button - then follow the steps and your back home with windows mobile. - then you can sell your hd2 and buy a android phone.

Hi,
I have just purchased a new HTC HD2 on T-Mobile (U.K.) and I am loving it !
I am a total novice and wish to change from Windows 6.5 to the better latest Android OS.
Can anyone please tell me how to do this? I have no idea what I am doing and do not want to do something which may jeopardise the phone (I do know that it does affect the warranty) The only thing I know about 'Flash' it flashing my mobile in public.
I would really like if someone can give me Step by Step instructions via a video so I can see what I am doing.
Any feedback would be really appreciated.
Many thanks

Don't rush anything. Make sure you have a good idea about what you're doing and what you can do if things go wrong. If you're unsure about anything just use the search feature first and if you're still iffy about something, ask a question.

I think you are making this harder than it needs to be. Just follow the instructions given to you in your previously started thread about the same thing. The link to MSkip gives you detailed instructions on how to install Android on your HD2 and how to revert back to WM6.5 if you so desire.

Thanks for the reply. What is the latest version of Android for HTC HD2? The link you gave me, is that the latest version?
Google is your friend. Haven't used it in a while. If you are that unsure of flashing Android to your HD2 just buy an Android powered phone. Sorry to be so brash but just follow the instructions.

DoctorGore said:
I'll try to explain a bit. First off you've got to install the things that let you install Android in the first place (HSPL, MAGLDR, CWM etc) and after that you install a ROM. A ROM is the thing that will decide what version of Android you phone will have. If you don't like the ROM you have, or if you just want the newest version of Android, all you have to do is change it. You don't have to re-install everything again, just your ROM.
You might have to change your CWM partition size when you choose a new ROM, but the chef (person who made the ROM) will let you know what size you need in the thread. This is also easy and doesn't require you to re-install everything. Don't worry if you don't know what a CWM partition is because it'll make sense eventually.

Go to the HTC website and flash the latest stock ROM 3.14 for HD2. After this all you need to do is download a ROM from the SD Android section, place the Android folder on the root of your SD card (i.e. not in any folders), go to file explorer, in Android run CLRCAD and then HaReT.

Bloody hell, use the search function! It isn't difficult!
Having said that, this is a complete guide to doing so. And yes, the ROMs tend to be multi-lingual and a lot support RTL writing for Arabic. It should state in the OP if it does.

Google Video is your best friend!
Jayceooi hd2 video tutorials are very clear and simple to follow!
Download the videos and watch them over and over again until you get it!
Once you have had sufficient exposure to the process of installing nand android (like original) come back to xda and read the tutorials just to make sure the information is up to date!
Don't rush! Keep watching the videos until you "get it"!
Download the files needed to flash. Place them in folders numbered to the sequence required for installation.
I know you feel a little inundated now but once you watch the videos it will make sense!

As you are a native English speaker (or have a bloody good translator) you should EASILY be able to follow that guide. I'm 14 and I could, and I had literally no experience of anything like this beforehand. @lunchmoney (lol) jayceooi's tutorials are indeed very good, and show the step-by step-with text + have links to the XDA threads for downloads and he also answers all his questions on his website.

Hello guys I've always wanted an HD2 to try out all the coolness and now I got one and I'm totally lost lol. I bought it off the xda marketplace and the Guy already has maglar or whatever that thing is called and its on windows phone but its on 7.0.
Btw I don't have the T-Mobile version or the European version. I have the rare telestra version from Australia. If that matters.
I don't know what rom I'm on but under settings it has a help contacts website and its HTTP://WWW.mpx.Gen.tr
It takes me to some foreign language forum.

Hi,
I think the best You can do is to read some tutorials here on XDA - i bought HD2 and didnt know anything about roms and such - but if You spend some time on reading stuff here You can choose something for Yourself.
I have gone from win 6.5 which is ofcourse a build-in OS for HD2, through Android 2.3, then ICS 4.0 and now i have WP7.5.
There was a moments when i though that my phone will be a brick-like device so my advice is: read - and read carefully.
go step by step tutorials - if You dont know something there is answer somewhere here - i know becouse i was in the same place as You are HD2 and noob bout roms (still i am
so pick an OS for Yourself - read tutorial and thats all the magic there is about it
