Hi Guys, I bought the Universal for quite some time now, and would like to do more advanced stuff with it. but I am kind of new to Rom flashing; I tried to find the threads to read, but there are just too much information on this web Forum(which is great thanks guys), and I can't seem to find the right Keyword to search, which Thread would you guys recommend me to read? or any main keyword I should search for ?
Thanks and have a very nice day guys.

It's all very personal, fraid you're just gonna have to read up and find which is the best for you.
Hi,
I currently have an Blue Angel, but this will apply to you as well:
If your Universal is working fine, DON'T START FLASHING IMAGES!
The truth is that you MAY end up with a brick.
If you want to do "more advanced" things, why not look at all the Freeware applications you can use? Today, i.e., I got my fingers onto a Universal and tested it with my SD-Card which contains Dosbox and Windows 3.0.
You know what? It ROCKS!!! VGA is absolutly cool and speed is fine.
Think of all the DOS-Games you could run.
This is just one suggestion, but really: don't change a running system.
You read about it and it will seem simple. But if something goes wrong, you will regret it for sure.
Cheers,
vma

thanks for the advice vma, but the thing is, my Univeral is a bit too slow when it run what it comes with originally, so I think I will find a way to back up the ROM and give it a try...
Man I reply so late, because I was choked when drinking water, so the water was splited on to the keyboard, then like space bar and some other keys doesn't work, and to make the matter worst.... I try to dry it with a hair dryer, but I was watching TV.... and in 1 min it melted my keys ... so certain keys are now "forever stuck" so I am currently using a mini keyboard I had... will get anoter standard keyboard soon, this mini keyboard is making me very tried
I hope you are referring to a regular PC keyboard and not to the keyboard of your Universal!!!
Have you tried the Registry-hack's and the section on how to optimize your Universal for speed?

I'm not saying all of them are fake, i said some of their videos are fake, such as the one where they use 2 fingers to unlock, thats impossible as the device (and Windows Mobile) only supports single touch...another example is the video where they drag the icon from the top to the middle for unlock (which was copied from the Meizu M8), you can watch carefully and see that the icon moves faster then the user moves it with his finger...clearly fake
Actually I think that the movie are just fake or anyway a kind of protoptype.
As u can see in all movie
1: the touch of fingers is not moved as the screen is
2: the home screen always have the same date, same hours, same notification (sms, email). It looks like a flash movie.
3: as the player is tring to turn on the mobile u can see that there already is a little backlight on the device. That means that it's a movie with a black frame working on the background.
Anyway, all these ideas are pretty nice. I love the boing unlock.
If someone know a kind of locker...... S2US -> I donì't really like it
bye

Could anyone of you try to install Windows 7 (for PC) on a MicroSDHC (I don't have one with 16 or 32GB so I can't try) and try to boot it (using multiboot with WinMo 6.5) on HTC HD2?
This experience must sho us if:
- HTC HD2 can run Windows 7 (lagging or not)
- Windows 7 can recognize our 480x800 screen resolutions
- Windows 7 can use our GPS
- Windows 7 can recognize and use our accelerometer
- Windows 7 can use our phone for calling
- HTC HD2 has the specifications to run Windows 7 (is Snapdragon efficient?)
- etc...
If it works, maybe my phone will use Windows 7 instead of WinMo7...

Search for Bochs, you can get windows 95 to run on the HD2. Unusable, but it runs...
ok this is serious and possible, if you came here only to write stupid things you can go on iPhone.com... for others who are interested you can stay... after all the Wii launched Win95, an HD2 launched Win95, etc... Why an HD2 could not launch Win7?
Maybe it could, but that wouldn't make it any close to being useable. x86 PC and ARM are different architectures, so emulation is needed to run a PC OS on an ARM device like the HD2... which is awfully slow.
Imagine taking your 10-15 year old PC and try to run win7 on it.

I can't help the way i look, i've got a cold at the moment if you don't mind.
Seriously though, I've been here a long time and that was a stupid question, especially for your first post. You spent more time writing it than you did on ANY type of research or use of common sense. You might as well asked if you could install it on a nokia (or iphone).
I honestly thought he ment win phone 7 series at first.
You want to run the latest win OS on your phone...
Everything would be so small!
first i don't have iPhone nor Nokia (I really dislike those two)...
Then, yes i want to try windows Seven to try it on a capacitive screen, to see if it could adapt on a WVGA screen, etc... I only want to see if it is possible, not to use everyday... someone installed ubuntu on his phone, someone installed Windows 95 on his wii, ... It could be funny to see it running...
Finally johnk1973, someone said in the past "when you don't know something... just shut up!!!" so maybe you could think about this...

If you EVER find anyone installing and running windows 7 on their HD2 then get back in contact, maybe then you can imply you know more than me..

Serious question? Really? Okay. Here's a serious answer. No. It will not work. Totally forget about it - 100% forget about it.
Incidentally, you're being ridiculously rude for a noob. Chill out and stop insulting people. Just because someone offends you by not being serious, doesn't mean it's okay for you to name-call back at them.
Finally, I read some very good advice somewhere...

Maybe you should take that advice before asking dumb questions that turn into trollfests and flamewars.

I agree!!! Some things are possible, while others....let's just say impossible xD
johncmolyneux you're acting like johnk1973... you say no without saying why... maybe 'cause you don't know either... so don't post here, you're acting for nothing... your "serious" answer is not serious...
johnk1973 i didn't say that i know more, i said if tou don't know don't fill this topic...
At the last look nearly 600 different people have viewed this thread and not one person has said you can install Windows 7 on a HD2. Only one person said it's possible if someone was to write an emulation program to do it, and he's right but there is no such program. This would be a massive task and pointless as the processor in the HD2 is not capable of running both the emulation and Windows 7 at the same time, maybe in 10 years (? anyone). Don't confuse the 1Ghz processor in the HD2 as being ANYTHING close to a 1Ghz in a PC.

There's a few available in the WM Marketplace...I haven't tried any of them, but I remembered seeing them when browsing there.
I have myself used Trancreative's WordBook for a number of years.
It's not free, it's not new, but without any other references I think it works well. WVGA is no problem.

Nice, only $10. Sold.
I have a telus htc vogue with a broken screen, anyone know where I might find one? Out of pure boredom i would like to get it working.
Unfortunately they don't seem to have parts lying around for this device these days. A peek through craigslist showed that there are used htc touch's out there anywhere from $40-100 depending on the condition. Because the screen is one of those unwarrantied things that likely are expensive to repair/replace, I'm guessing it's almost better to replace?

Hey jamezelle,
I have a Vogue with a broken power button (in the main board) laying around. If you just need the screen, I can sell it to you for like $10 + shipping. The device works great otherwise, I just haven't got the time to fix this thing...

there are three different screen manufactures for the vogue screen meaning different drivers. i don't remember the manufacturers names off hand, but i know dzo's android kernel auto detects which screen you have and then uses the appropriate driver.
