Hi guys.. I know, this probably is a 1000-times-asked question, but I didn't find an easy answer...
I've got the first official DFT realease of WP7 on my HD2... never upgraded.
I'd like to put some 7.5 rom in my HD2... what should I do? Do I have to go back to WM6.5 and then flash WP7.5? Or can I just use a WP7.5 rom?
Could you point me to the correct threads, maybe?

Hey folks,
just got my HD2 from eBay and it seems like a Vodafone-branded Version ... Vodafone Logo is displayed at startup. I´m using a T-Mobile SIM, so it´s unlocked at least.
Well, I read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881958
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
... and I don´t want to brick my "little" new phone ... so here is some information:
SPL 1.42.0000
Flash 512 MB
OS 1.2.21864
Manila 2.5.19202525.0
ROM 1.44.162.6 (70494) GER
Radio 2.04.50.22
I tried this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881937 and at startup it just did nothing while showing "Jumping to Kernel (custom)" ... yes at that all and it won´t do more
Can someone help me ?
... OK, this thread is kinda nice lol:

You just need to up your radio. Forget HSPL - you're just wasting your time, unless you need to do it for the radio upgrade.
EDIT: Just checked and there's a Vodafone version of the latest ROM. It comes with the latest radio that is perfect for running Android.

quick question: if I want to remove the branding, I just have to flash a unbranded update via SSPL?
Yes. If you want to flash an unbranded ROM then you'll need to update SPL, but if you're running Android then it won't matter
I strongly recommend the latest ROM. I've been using it since it was released and I've had 0 problems with it.
thanks ;-) I´ve had an HTC Hero with Android 2.2 and now I see this WM 6.5 ... and it´s such a crap lol, oh well.
I installed the latest Vodafone-ROM and now I´ll copy Android to the SD and take a look ... next thing will be the bootloader and I´ll update this thread then lol.

Sounds like you're sorted mate. Have fun
... so I just tried this ROM (Desire Z) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881937 and it froze ... oh well, now I´m waiting for an MIUI-ROM to boot
Don't know if you know, but it may need to create a disk image the first time you boot, and this can take quite a while.

... hey there again folks ... played some with the MIUI and I kinda like it ... but I have a "little" problem ... the sound stops working after some time
will use the search, but yesterday I found nothing
... oh boy I have to say, that it´s pretty hard when you can a device some time after it´s launch date. yeah.
well, I´m going to stick to SD-builds for now, keeping NAND in my head and I like the fakt of killing Windows Mobile of my HD2 ;-)
OK, cyall folks and try to help the noobs a little bit more
Yesterday I have found on xda.cn a wm6.5 rom with wp7 interface and it seems very nice but there is no informations or instructions about it and I am not so brave to install it.So is there someone who have better informations about it and teach me how to upload this ROM ?

I'm just wondering too if there is some chef who can cook or extract the interface and put it on a wm6.5 wwe rom
Hello, Warrio, that rom is not real WP7 rom, it's just the WP7 UI with 6.5 rom.

Can't understand chinese so I can't help you with it, sorry.
If anyone can exract the UI so we can install it without flashing the device it'd be very nice.
Why don't you just use a real WP7 ROM? It's leaked and available, but even if you wait for the finished article I doubt you'll be waiting for very long.
It's very nice, by the way, but I've gone back to Android.

first install the maglr 1.12 and then fresh install the wp7 =)
note: when u install, they will format all sdcard
Can I know if it is real? or not?
If yes it is great!!!!!!
Yes I think it is real!

They´re actually all "stable", "fast", and whatnot.
You´ll find some minor differences in graphics and language files, but that´s about it. The reason for this is that all those custom ROMs use the same basis.
Just take one of these from May/June, they´re "NoDo" ROMs, the older ones are the initial WP7 version without "copy/paste".
Hello,
I have a question about having windows mobile 6.x on windows phone 7 devices. In Microsoft, or elsewhere, forum they said that downgrading from WP7 to WM6.x is not possible just as upgrading from WM6.x to WP7.
Well, since it is been done to upgrade to WP7, I was wondering if downgrade is possible?
Thank you.
You can downgrade to WM6.5 from WP7. Just flash your 6.5 ROM as you normally would through the bootloader, this will remove MAGLDR as well as WP7 and return your phone to 6.5

Nope, I think he's talking about a WP7 native phone, so no MAGLDR no downgrade AFAIK.
PS. this should go to Q&A
Yes, I have WP7 native and would be most happy to downgrade it to WM6.5. I guess that it isn't posible to do it now, because there are no tools created for it, but it would be nice to know that it just could be possible to do it.
Anything is possible with the right developers behind your phone. Cottula was the savior for our phone!

Well, I do really hope that development will go, just a bit, to that direction.

I wouldn't wait for that to happen. The WM6.5 drivers would have to be created from scratch.
If you *really* want a good WM6.5 device, get a HD2 with a good ROM on it.
Yes, but the problem is that I have already purchased the phone. I do like it, but a bit anxious for new apps. I've considered HD2 long time ago, and I always had a qwerty keyboard on the phone (Wizard, Raphael, Kovsky, Xperia X2, Touch Pro 2 and now 7 Pro) cause I like it. But, unless WP7 starts to develop, HD2 is the best possible solution.
Thank you krazyakar.
Hey guys, I got a second hand HD2 from ebay, so far i;ve been using it with android running from the SD but now i'e decidedto give wp7 a try.
the device came with MAGLDR 11.13 & WP7 7.0.7004.0 pre installed. I'm not sure which actual ROM it is.
I;ve read all the guides on updating to a newer ROM from the dev section of this forum, but im worried about nricking the device.
when I plug my phone into the Zune application to sync music, it offers me an update. I tried this update but it failed, is there any way I can update easily through Zune? or do I need to reflash a ROm such as this one.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1157535
Also, in my current situation, is it as simple as downloading the ROM & running the EXE with the phone plugged in?
I wnt a later version formnumerous reasons, mainly the lackofmauto focus in the camera z- allphotos are blurry!
SOrry for being captian n00bing, im just startiong out with WP7!
Hi,
It's not possible to update your HD2 WP7 with Zune. It's only for official WP devices.
To flash new WP rom, I advice you to begin with a Task29 (clean the phone), flash radio (2.15.... recommended), flash MAGLDR 1.13, and flash the WP rom you want.
Good luck

Thanks for the reply mate.
Task29 clears the NAND if im correct, will that remove MAGLDR too? So I'll have to reflash MAGLDR 1.13?
Can anybody provide me with a n00by-friendly link to a guide on this? The phone came with MAGLDR 1.13 so i;ve no experience with WP7! I'm an Android man!
Could you also recommend a stable day-to-day ROM? I'm not bothered about Mango (unless theres a super-stable version) so anything NoDo would be fantastic.

in some cases task29 has created some issues with Wp on the HD2
just boot in to MAGLDR, go to USB flash, connect it to your PC and then run the exe from the ROM of your choice, i would strongly recomend staying with Yukis ROM, if you have issues with it then consider SD Card flashing a stock WM ROM and starting again. HSPL>RADIO>MAGLDR>WP7
The SD card is the problem, if you get one that works, you'll be fine, there is NO compatible list of SD card!
