[Q] Mango and android dual boot - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

first of all a big thanks to yukixda and xbmod and all the developers for their work on the HD2 i can honestly say that thanks to them there is no other phone on the market i would prefer at the moment.
ive started this thread as i cant find the answer elsewhere and think there are quiet a few of us who would love to upgrade to mango but still require dual boot android
its been made clear that with the latest 7712 and 7720 builds this isnt an option but i was wondering if we were to update to build 7403 could we then partition the sd card and dual boot android
im currently running 7592 with marketplace so would there be any benefit to update to 7403 if dual booting was possible
many thanks to everyone

How about this question - "Do you have a functional brain ?"
1) This is not Q&A forums, and even after knowing that you are about to ask a question, "[Q]" in the subject you decide to post in Development. Walao.
As for the question, use some brains and use another sdcard for android, ofc you will have to remove and insert sdcard before booting but atleast you can.
Please research and follow forum rules before posting.

Apologies for posting this in the wrong forum.
i have searched but havent figured out how to delete or move this thread

Only a forum mod can do that. Contact them using PM and inform them about this, they'll be more than happy to help you with it.

To be proved: If two triangles have two angles equal to two angles respectively, and one side equal to one side, namely, either the side adjoining the equal angles, or that opposite one of the equal angles, then the remaining sides equal the remaining sides and the remaining angle equals the remaining angle.
Step through proof by clicking on Next line:
There are two triangles ABC and DEF where angles ABC = DEF and BCA = EFD, and line BC = EF

[Request Help] Just got my HD2... New to this forum:(

I hope this is the right section. If i just posted on the wrong section, i hope moderators can move this thread instead of closing it. Thanks

Hi, i believe some of you remember that i am switching from X1 to HD2... Well, i have changed it and i'm using it now (love the big screen)
I was wandering around this forum... I saw a post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578575&highlight=dualboot
What does it actually means by: "ANDROID/MAEMO/LINUX on HD2"
Is it that when i flashed it, my Windows OS platform is gone for good???
Then... ... I searched deeper. LOL, and notice this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792
I am very very attracted to the DualBoot... Thats actually i wanted for my HD2.
Well, thats not my main question/request...
A troublesome request will be appearing after this sentence, i hope that you guys wouldn't feel fed-up. *(Apologize to you first)*
The most important question... Is it compatible for HD2??? If its not, sorry for this post.
If it is compatible, could someone spare me their time to guide me along the step and procedures to install the android OS and then the DualBoot.
If possible, mind attaching/link the required file for this whole process.
A million thanks to you guys. Sorry if i speak a bit to harsh
P.s. Sorry if there is a guide already up there in the forum . I'm a student and need to study for my test, didn't have time to search so many pages
I don't mind if you copy/paste the guide here... Just attach the required files needed.
Thanks once again
...Sorry if i speak a bit to harsh
I would like to advice you to read more of the ANDROID/MAEMO/LINUX on HD2 thread. You'll see that it still is in full development. For android to work developers need to create a custom kernel that will run on the HD2 using Haret. There is no question of a nand flash of android as of yet.
Now even with the use of Gen.Y dualboot, if you are not able to boot into android, the application in itself is still useless (on HD2). Furthermore, the dual boot application does in fact start your windows mobile Rom but directly start Haret instead of completely loading windows mobile (correct me if i'm wrong please).
So to sum up. Don't worry about flashing over windows mobile. This isn't possible (yet). Running android is not working (yet). And even with the use of Gen.Y dualboot, you'd still run windows mobile as a flashed rom and not Android itself.
I do have to ask though. If you just got the phone and already want Android.. why didn't you get an android phone? Ofcourse if you are like me and just like to tinker with your phone I can understand .

[Q] Android on the HTC HD2 (HELP!!)

Hi,
I hope someone can help im trying to load Android on to my HD2 and ive not had much success so far.
Ive got through forums after forums and im now at a dead end!!
I have a typical HD2 - on the Virgin Network now ive been looking through youtube vids and forums and all there mobiles have been T-Mobile models (i dont no if this makes a difference) althought i no some one with a Virgin Mobile one and theyve done it they gave me a link to use that they used but its not longer active.
Ive tried serveral different Android Roms but nothing works i start the intall proces and i either end with this -
HaRET boot
Sutting down hardware
Turning off NMV...
In preloader
PSR=600000df
Tags reloadedto 0x11b00100 (size 0x00000f00)
Kernel rel0cated to 0x11B0B000 (SIZE 0X0026F2EE)
Initrd rel0cated to 0x12200000 (size 0x001cfde1)
Jumping to Kernel (custom) ...
AND FREEZES
or i get this -
The boot loader starts and seems to be loading and intalling and then for no reason just stops mid flow and fades out.
it this untill i take the battery out and put it back in again and it loads windows 6.5 fine.
this is doing my nut in and i would like to get rid of Windows 6.5 and have android put on to here it so much better!
I hope you can help thank you inadvance!

Firstly this section is for development not Q&A.
Second, What you are doing isnt going to replace your winmo 6.5, it will still be there. The process you are trying to do is simply to make your phone reboot into android kernel and boot from sd card from and android "build" NOT a "rom", You are not installing anything.
If you want to replace winmo you need to install MAGLDR and then flash one of the NAND roms to your phone.
I noticed you didnt mention anywhere about your spl or radio versions which makes me think you haven't even bothered to go and read any guides before creating this topic in wrong place.
Go and do some reading of the guides which you will find in the stickies or by searching forum.
Cool
Thank you i think! new to the website trying to find a little help and all i get is attitude wicked!!!
Sorry i posted in the wrong place but rather than giving me attitude you could point me in the direct of a threat that would help me!!

You haven't even bothered to do the most logical thing in a forum, which is to read the stickies where 9/10 the info you need is located.
So please give me a reason why I should wipe your arse?
I dont mind helping people alsong as they also try and help themselves, but people who come here and go directly into posting a topic is just pure lazyness. If you want help and support at least have the manners to attempt to read a little first.

I can`t run Darkstone SuperRAM v1.5. Help:]

Hi guys, I have to create another threat, because my last one was moved to other category and I can`t reply it because I`m new in forum.
So here is the problem.
I`ve just bought HD2, and of course I want to try android SD ROM. Someone advised me that Darkstone SuperRAM v1.5 is fast stable and works good, so I tried to run it. I`ve done everything what instruction said in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870518
But nothing works. I run CLRCAD file and then HARET and I get stuck on black screen. In upper left corner are words:
"HaRET boot
Shutting down hardware
In preloader
...
Jumping to Kernel (custom)... "
Can any1 help me and tell what to do? Did I forget something to do before running android?
Looking forward for your answers,
Sorry of bad English.
Your first post was probably moved because you posted in the wrong place - which you've now done again. If you have a question about a particular build then post in that ROM thread in the right forum.
I have the same build running fine on my HD2 and I suspect you did not fully read the instructions on how to install it, nor the rules on posting here.
But also I can`t post even there, I can post only in my threads.
I tried other sd ROM but it also not worked. Maybe I have a lack of RAM memory? It says I have free 190MB. My HD2 is not T-mobile version.
Or maybe my sd card is to little? (1GB).
Are you sure you have the current stock rom version installed?
Your card is too small. And I bet you need to update the radio on your phone.

[Q] Change between 7392 Nodo and 7401 Nodo???

Hey all, the title tells everything.
Thx for your answers
(I hope I posted it in the right section)
Probably should've been posted in the "Q&A and General" section but I'm also curious as to what the difference is.
From what I can tell 7329 is the latest official release of WP7 (NoDo?), while 7401 is the Mango ISV (?) Beta release.
I can't seem to find an official change log but I'm pretty sure one thing they changed was renaming the 'orange' colour scheme to 'mango'
Also heard something along the lines of mango bringing hundreds of bugfixes/features/stuff.

it should have been posted in Q&A.
For 7392..
http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/wp7-update-7392-includes-more-than-cert-security-fixes
For 7401 (Mango)...
http://www.pocket-lint.com/review/5469/windows-phone-7-mango-preview
7401 isn't Mango
Mango started as 7500 build back in October.
Ops... you're right OndraSter
hopefully i didnt mislead anyone
So I can flash a 7401 Rom with the same stability abilities then the other NODO- Roms?

[Q] I'm just tooo noob for all this...just guide me around

I just purchased an unlocked TMobile HTC Leo, which I'm gonna use with att. I've heard all the capabilities this phone still delivers and being honest, I'm really excited about upgrading it to an Android OS from day one. On the same note, I have to say that I'm overwhelmed by the variations of ROMs, ways to install them,etc, etc, etc...I'm not a techie by any means, the only related experience I have is changing the OS on my BB bold2. believe when I say I had being checking threats after threats for hours in order to not deal with a dumb troll, but all I could find was old guides (a year old or so). so if somebody can pitch me a couple of useful noobie tips, send me some links of updated guides, any warnings or has a useful comment, be my guest.
This is all you need, i think....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136644
And you have to read those two very short and small warnings before you start :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16255579&postcount=2
and this ..

i agree that whats listed above should be rather helpful but you should also read this thread found here. its Flashing Your First HD2 NAND Android Rom [For Newbs] & will guide you through the steps in order to get Android onto your device. this thread was written with the noob in mind so everything is written rather simple in a straight forward manner. the steps listed on that page will have you lose winmo and it will be replaced by Android. if you want a sd build then i would suggest one that has Android already built in like this one so you can get a feel for it before deciding whether or not to go to a nand build.
please before you flash any rom/radio/kernal/...people you have an idea of what your doing or atleast know what not to flash. if you have a 1024 leo flash 1024 leo roms if you have a 512 leo flash 512 leo roms​
Sorry, unrelated but I couldn't help pointing out this:

'Threats after threats'...
welcome. good reads above.
just wanted to let you know, too, that with the tmousa on att, you will NOT get 3g. just edge. that is a hardware issue. if you want 3g, you will need the telstra version of the hd2. but i reckon you know this, but thought i'd share just in case.
enjoy.
why not try some of the SD builds first? at least you don't risk bricking your device, and can enjoy android until you feel ready to flash NAND
thank you guys for the quick responses and inputs. its cool to know that you belong to a dedicate comunity such as xda; I'll check out my options and let you know my progress. thnx again
lol, threads AND threats as well!! there's some short temper ppl around...
