What kind of probs are you having and maybe someone can help. Many are using Android as a daily build with no problems like me. Give us your exact setup and be specific about your problems.

If android themes cause you problems then stop using them.

That's really helping.........

I've been using android as my main on the hd2 since I got it. I've not had any problems (other than low battery, but that's mostly fixed now). If you need some help you're gonna have to specify what exactly the problem is. Have you tried updating the kernel or radio?

Takes a long time and does not boot into andriod..
I have this problem with booting into andriod. Currently, my HTC HD2 is running on dutty's family rom V3. I have already formatted my SD card using the SD formatter tool. Then I have placed all the required files into the SD card. For the first time booting into andriod, it is relatively smooth, roughly taking about 2 to 3 minutes to boot. I am using Mdeejay eVo Sense v. 2.3 rEVOlution [kernel:hastarin R7.7]. After I switch off my phone and turn on my phone again, I run clrcad and haret, it gets stuck at the booting up screen with the green HTC symbol. I have to take out the battery again, reformat the sd card and repeat the same process. Could anyone help me with this problem??
OS version: 5.2.23142(23142.5.3.10)
Manila Version: 2.5.20191914.0
ROM: Duttys HD2 ML Family Rom (V3) WWE
Radio Version: 2.12.50.02_2
Protocol version 15.40.50.07U

i got the same problem , some one gave me a link to do before installing android
this is the link i got
http://leoandroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=182
But i tried , doesn't work as i wanted, every time i need to format reinstall folders etc etc...
if some one can help us, please let us know what to do

Here's what's on my tmousa phone;
Winmo - Ozrom 4.4
Radio - 2.15
Android - Mdeejay_eVo_Sense_v._1.0_Warm
I use an 8gm class 6 SD, I was using the stock 16gb class 2 but found the class 6 much much faster.
I really don't have any major problems, everything I need seems to work just fine, I only rarely stress it out and have to force a reboot. I did format the SD from within windows, no sure if that matters but it's always seemed to work for me and I figured the phone should know what it wants to see.

[Q] Best WORKING 100 rom for Legend

Hey,
after official froyo update there's not much to wait for on Legend - there wont be any official Gingerbread that's for sure. So I was wondering if theres any rom which is working flawlessly like official one (I mean that EVERY part of phone is working without problems - wifi, radio, 3g etc) which has newer features than Official Froyo?
bonus question: I want to change sd card for bigger and I was wondering if I can simply transfer all the data to pc and then back to the new card - will that work? - I would like to avoid installation of everything again..

You can safely transfer SD files back from a computer to the SD.

Like a PC when u reinstall an OS u will have to reinstall programs (apps)on your phone if u put a new Rom on it. I have re Romed my desire 6-7 times in the last 6 months its a pain having to D/L the apps again and install them but not realy a big deal, the best thing to do is download app packs of the net and store them in a folder on your SD card and access them from there for reinstalation rather than searching for them again on the app market.
Oxygen 2. RC7 Rom was the best and smoothest rom I found on the desire except the video cam didnt work which was going to be addressed on the next version RC8, not sure it will work on the legend but worth checking out, I have been running the latest REDUX Rom for the last month and that is pretty good as well

ok thanks

I can recommend Blayos B 0.7, working excellent for me.

I use cyanogenmod 7.0 RC4 at the moment.
For me the full hardware is working after the Update on the latest radio.
This means: 3G, Wifi, Bluetooth, GPS, FM-Radio, Compass, G-Sensor, ...
Wait the time for the release of CM-7 and then give them a try.
You will be surprised how fast your Legend can be

By this way:
Thx to the devs for the great work!

Just use cyanogenmod, it is great

Either Blayo's or CM6 for Froyo.
As for your apps, just install Titanium Backup and backup all your apps. Then transfer those backup files to your pc and back to your new SD then restore. But IF I'm not mistaken, you can just simply move the app data around. If those apps are installed on your SD then it might not work.

ok guys thanks for answers

Hi,
Im currently running on CM7 Nightly Build 32. For me everything is working, only one thing is annoying, the USB transfer rate seems to be USB 1.1.
Data-Transfers are very slow, e.g. CM7 Rom file with 82 MB needs 15 minutes. I'm not sore if it is related to CM7 or Gingerbread Kernel.
Cheers,
Stolich

I would higly recommend the CM7 Nightlies, I have the 7. 08.35.21 radio and full hardware functions. U can clock it "safely" to 787 mhz, switch to ADWLauncher Pro and the phone feels like a Optimus 2X
Write 24 mbit/s
Read 75 mbit/s
its slow, but still usb 2.0, those speeds is probably because my sd card sucks.

[Q] Restore to factory WM stock after Andriod installed

Too many things are not working. And the phone is super slow.
How do I restore a HD2 with android installed back to Windows Mobile stock version? Can you please point me to Wiki, I am looking but I cannot find it.
Thanks,

Download your stock ROM and flash it via SD card - this way, everything will be back to factory status.
Just check the stickies in the WinMo thread, you´ll quickly find what you need.

If this is done will HTC know it has been using Android NAND? So could a phone be sent for repair if this is done?

Good luck

Well first of all which Android rom did you use?
Did you try others?
Did you read the roms thread for tweaks/fixes?
Some roms can make your device run faster and better then Windows Mobile, You have obviously not tried variosu roms and just gave up after 5 minutes.
You should take your time and try some of the lighter Android roms like NexusHD2 or maybe a CM7 based rom. What you ahve probably tried is a full on DHD sense rom which (at first) will be laggy until OS has had time to settle down and also a few reboots.
I have been using Android since I had my HD1 and more or less since day1 on my HD2, Ive used many roms (thats teh fun part) and have not had a problem overall of slow or too many things not working, It all depends on the rom you use and if you tweak/fix or not.

A few questions

Hello everybody.
I am new to the board - well, to posting at least. I have been browsing for information for a while and with thanks to threads here, managed to root my hd2 successfully, but a few things are still not working for me properly, so I have a few questions
---
1. I had to ring a company earlier today, which was an automated service and upon them requesting I click a certain number to be redirected to where I wanted, I clicked and it had no impact on the call - they just said they did not recognize a request and continued to repeat the question.
So, does anybody know the setting I need to change to fix this?
---
2. I am in the UK and on my old phone, a blackberry (Don't worry, I have seen the light now!) I could get decent connection, even when not in an WiFi area, therefore using 3G. With the HD2 however, even by changing the radio settings in the *#*#4636#*#* I am never able to get a decent signal outside of a WiFi zone.
I am using the Radio from these forums. The Leo one with the exe being named RUU_CUSTOM. I will try and find it later.
Is the problem with the radio and I need a UK specific one? I have tried GSM (all variations) from the menu stated, which is out local frequency I believe, but with no success.
Or am I missing something else?
---
3. My Android ROM was made for a NEXUS ONE (The gingerbread one), so could this be causing the problems above?
I had to use this one because I could not find another one which would work using CWM.
I tried numerous and after installing, it would not load due to "Kernal Load Error" - so I had to settle on this one.
My partner is American and has an HD2 also, but her's is the American model, and she has no problem installing the mass of the ROM's available around these boards. Could the fact my model is the UK one, make any difference? I would not assume so, but it seems there is a difference somewhere.
Does anyone know the reason for these points?
I thank you all in advance for any help you provide.
-Luke

Radio 2.15.50.14 is the recommended radio for using Android. I'm not too sure about the UK, but I've used my American HD2 on both Tmobile and FarEasTone [ Taiwanese carrier] without any problems, so it *should* work for you too.
The Nexus One build is one of the best Stock Gingerbread ROMs available for the HD2. That shouldn't be the problem. I'm guessing the problem is you might be using the wrong radio. I recommend flashing back to stock WM 6.5 and starting fresh.
Also, there's tons of ROMs available for CWM! However, as you have the UK model, I suggest staying away from a Sense ROM, as they require an ext4 on your sdcard for your model, and that's always been laggy for me. Try MIUI, CM7, or stick with the Nexus build is my suggestion.

Hello EB, and thank you for your reply.

That would be the radio I am using. The folder for it is named Radio+Leo+2.15.50.14 on my computer.

I just looked at my phone and the ROM I am using is GRJ90 (NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.9 NAND), which I agree, works well other than these couple flaws, which are not necessarily related to the rom.

Ok, I am new to all of this and it took me multiple hours just to get android to run on this, but I did the NAND install, so I do not have the WM on my phone, even as a dual boot option.
I will perhaps try to find one though, should I not be able to find the answers anywhere else first

I did try the CM7 ROM (TyphooN_CM7_v3.7.0-cLK), but that came up with the kernal issue too. I did try a fair few more, but they all did the same until I come to the nexus, so I stuck with it.
May have to take your advice and start the process over again. *yikes*

Oh, okay, radio shouldn't be the problem then.
Do you have MADGLR or cLK bootloader installed? If you have MADGLR, than that may be the reason why that particular CM7 ROM isn't working, as you tried out the cLK version.

Dang it! I did not even notice that, but given I have only rooted one phone, surely I can be forgiven for this slip?
Thanks a bunch. Now I will go try another because you are right, I am using MADGLR.
Thanks again

You may want to look into hd2 toolkit. It makes task29, fashing and installing magldr, clk, and recovery extremly easy. I've had problems with the typhoon cm7 and would not recommend it. Try doing a task 29 and try clk instead of magldr. Clk uses ppp and magldr uses rmnet. Rmnet is haveing trouble but ppp is good. Try a more up to date gingerbread edition for clk and I think that will solve your problems.
The main difference between HD2 UK and American is the amount of internal storage. UK has 512 where Americn has 1024

Some of the Sense 3.0 ROMs have 720p recording. I don't specifically know which ones though.

Just look at a couple threads, the OP should say if 720p recording is supported.

[Q] Which ROM is more stable and fast? TYPHOON CM7, HYPERDROID CM7, RAFDROID HD 4.2

can anyone pls tell me which rom is the most stable and fast?

best rom
for me best rom iv used is dorimanx rom and dorimanx kernel fast stable so far games play well but u need set up as explained to the letter on first page dorimanx rom

I've tried all of them and out of those three i would have to say its a tie between TYPHOON and RAFDROID HD. So now the question you need to ask is what do you prefer, Cyanogen or HTC Sense.
Both run very smooth and in the past was my daily ROMs for several months each at a time. I personally would go with RAFDROID but thats just my choice.

thank you for the reply but before i read this i installed hyperdroid cm7 but unfortunately i got a problem after the second reboot the camera stopped working and this message shows up
"The application camera(process com.android.camera) has stopped unexpectedly. please try again."
can you please help. thank you

You can quite easily switch ROMs by backing up your applications through Titanium backup then flashing a new ROM, but to solve it on hyperdroid, try wiping the camera data in settings > manage applications > camera > clear data. I think I had a similar issue once and this solved it for me. And don't worry, it won't delete the pictures from your SD card or anything like that

Typhoon is THE most stable, period
Dorimanx is heavily tweaked ROM and kernel, but f*** it's unstable.

+1 to this, the first ROM I flashed was Typhoon and I've never been able to use a single other ROM for more than a week before flashing back to Typhoon. I've never done a single wipe since the first time I flashed it over a year ago (the most I've done was to repartition) and runs smoothly still, with over 100 apps installed. I think using Typhoon has raised the standards too high for me to even consider using another ROM in the near future
