Hello I was hoping someone could answer a quick question or two for me. My background is hardware, but I have enough knowledge of all this stuff to be dangerous to myself. I don't use the SDK yet so Clockwork-mod and the toolbox are my friends.
1St
How do I know if a Kernal is compatible with someone elses ROM. Specifically| Kernel: tytung_r14 is the one I use now and need to keep as it supports Solution: T-Mobile WiFi Calling . I have no service to speak of at my house and this app has saved me a ton of hassle so I don't want to give it up to try another ROM even if it on my second leo. Also anyone ROM that says it uses this kernel does that mean it should support wifi calling ?
2nd
Why am I having M5sub issues when I try to flash a earlier ROM or a Clockwork recovery from one phone to the other?
The reason this came up is since I am new to this and I don't want to NEED someone to help me RIGHT NOW because my phone does not work. I basically fixed a trashed Leo off ebay to get a second phone before I started the software side. Once things were going well I went for it and started on my good phone. I thought i could just make a backup of one and then basically cloning it to the other. it has kind of worked but not well. I really need a better handle on why i get hung up at the htc screen alot and what somethings like Titanium backup and root do. They are all nice but not doing exactly what I think whey will or maybe things like Google verification is messing with me cause apps moving between phones, for the records I go pro on all of it I not trying to be cheap.
Hopefully now I have a thank you button
Greg

Hi all,
Having a problem getting Android to run on my Telstra HD2. I do the following:
+ Run CLRCAD; all good
+ Run HARET; all good until -- 5 or 6 lines of the linux screen appear and then it hangs, or the screen goes blank depending on the Android build that I try running.
I have an Australian HD2 with the following specs:
Model: T9193 (Telstra)
OS: 5.2.21869
R: 2.07.51.22_2
G: 15.32.50.07u
D: 1.72.82124
I am using the standard SanDisk 16Gb Micro-SD card. I have tried a number of Android builds from gamesquare.co.uk with no luck.
Can anyone suggest what I need to do to get this running on the stock Telstra ROM?
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Peace..
Probably need to upgrade your rom
and radio. Look at some signatures of people who say their build is working good.
I didn't really want to upgrade the ROM and radio since it'd void my warranty..
RE: Telstra woes
I notice you are running 2.07.51 radio. I reckon it's your radio to be honest. I run 2.12.50.02_2 on mine. I have had problems with radios other than x.xx.50.xx radios. There is a link somewhere in here to all the working radios (I think in the definitive guide. Don't worry about warranty issues, if you ever need to deal with that, just flash back to the factory rom (but I take no responsibility .
Cheers
Definitely need to change the radio. You need a .50 radio. That also means you need to put HSPL on the phone. However, be aware that Android is not very stable yet. I couldn't get WiFi working and had all sorts of problems getting it to talk with Outlook. Went back to stock Rom highly modified (CHT etc)
Hmmm indeed the radio could be the problem. I use the 2.07.50.22_2 radio (although my G and and D values are also different from yours) and I've had no problems.
This way if anything catastrophically goes wrong with your phone and you're unable to flash the old radio back hopefully they won't notice
EDIT: Forgot about HSPL, thanks iandg.
Thanks for the replies.
I'm going to bite the bullet... I've just installed HSPL; no problems.. Now to find a radio update..

really? you had that much problems with it dude? I'm still a noob here but I must say that I'm having a really good experience with it at the moment.
My config seems to be working pretty good. Try this....
ROM is NRGZ maxsense rom:

I have actually been using this as my main OS for the last 2 builds and it is really usable now. I have it syncing direct to my outlook server at work no probs at all (IT have hijacked it with security policies, but this is understandable). Other than that I reckon the DEVs here are absolute geniuses with how well this stuff is running.
Hope this is of some help

e1design, I have the same phone in the States on AT&T. Feel free to use my links below in my sig to get what I'm using. It works just fine. I haven't been on WinMo in weeks.
Done
Firstly, thanks for the replies in this thread.
I have to say that I've read it many times before: "Try the search function" - well it works wonders. With the information posted in thtis thread I was able to piece it all together and I now have Android on my HD2!
There are still a couple of things to iron out [WiFi, battery life and such] but in all a very worthwhile exercise.
Thanks again to the thread responders, and if you're in the same place as I was a week ago wanting to get Android on your HD2 - search on the keywords in this thread and you'll find it's as easy as can be.
Androis on T9193
Am totally thrilled to learn Android can be installed on the T9193.
Where are the best locations to source ROMs?
Suggestions on which are better and why?
Steps to Android..
Look at my sig and go from there..
I know I'm reviving an old thread here, but I'm wondering if any of you using a Telstra HD2 on AT&T (Cingular for me) here in the US have a stable Android install? I've been struggling with this for a long time now. I love Android but I can't get a configuration that will run longer than about 10 hours most of the time. I've gone through all the radios from 2.12.50.02_2, 2.14.50.02, and 2.15.50.14. I've switched my Windows Mobile ROM from Dutty CDLC v15 to OzDroid v1.11, I've switched my Android build from mattc froyo sense v1.8 to froyostone sense v3.2. I've gone through a couple different Linux kernels, currently on hastarin #8. No matter what I do I end up with about a 10 hour life before the device hangs. I have seen improving PPP performance with the different radios and kernels, but the overall device stability is the biggest problem. Could anyone using the Telstra HD2 for Android please post the configs that worked from them on their devices and include what kind of uptime you've achieved? I'm hoping this would really help me. Thanks in advance.
Ok For me I have the telstra HD2 and this is my Config.
Pretty much the latest of everything
- MAGLDR1.13
-Latest HSPL
-TyphoonN_CM7_v2.4.4.zip
- Radio 2.15.50.14
- Clockwork mode recovery v1.3

hi
I have installed DFT,s 2.2 on my windows phone and it works fine however there is one problem....The GPS wont lock..it just keeps searching..I think it has locked once or twice.
Will I have to install a different version rom
regards
Hi,
Could you please provide more information about the ROM you have installed.
hi
yes the rom I think is DFT_LEO_NAND
HSPL: 2.08
MAGLDR: 1.13
Radio: 2.15.50.14
The above I also installed
regards
Hi,
I'm still not sure which ROM you have,but you have enough on your phone to install a new ROM.
Browse the following list:
http://android.hd2roms.com/
Choose a ROM which you think will suit you and read the thread carefully ,especially the bits of the ROM that work and the bits that DON'T work(I.E. GPS)
Then follow the instructions on the [OP] carefully,paying attention to the required system partitions.
Good luck
hi
I have looked at the roms where you said but lots of them required a lot of knowledge....I want one that lets me load the bootloader, go to USB Flasher and install the rom from my computer...is this possible.
best regards
there arent many USB flasher (dft) roms left, , look for DFT in the rom title,
examples are
[21 FEB][DFT/CWM][data.img/ext4/reiser/btrfs]"Stock Desire" MOD V4 [KERN:V4]
[23.FEB.11][DFT] CleanDROID v2.55-Froyo+CM [Kernel GL_Core_v5b]
[26.JAN][DFT/CWM] NexusHD2-Froyo V1.9G [Android2.2.2][Kernel: tytung_r2_oldcam]
I'm a bit of a noob at this.. I just received this phone from my brother, bidding that if I can get the WIFI to work on this phone, I can have it.
However, I am clueless.. This is why I figured I'd run back to xda for some help.
It is currently running on the follow:
Android 2.3.4
Radio: 2.15.50.14
Build: NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.7 NAND
Everything BUT the wifi works - I can't even ADD a network onto it.
Would I have to re-install a new build? Or is there something I can do to the phone that will fix this?
(Note: I'm an iPhone user using this phone, this phone came WITH the android OS on it. Mind that I have no idea how to flash anything so please be patient with me if I ask you a ton of questions!)
if the phone has clockworkmod recovery then you can try to fix permissions , but if it doesn't then you will have to reinstall/reflash it, but if you want my opinion you should start from scratch.
Hi everyone!,
Im fairly new to this whole romming thing and i am looking to switch my HD2 over to a android build but i honestly dont know where to start. ive gone through lots of threads and topics but im still feeling a bit lost. im looking for something reliable for daily use (like mms, web browsing) and using androin market.
can anyone give me some guidance on what to look for?
I found the easiest fire-and-forget option was a froyo sense NAND rom... You can try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931126 if you want a reasonably stable rom for a 512mb HD2.
You will need to ensure you have the correct hspl (2.08 i think), radio (any xxx.50), and magldr (1.13 i think) installed before you can proceed.
Sometimes rom choice varies on if you have a 1024mb HD2 or a 512mb HD2.
p.s.
hspl: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
radio: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
magldr: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893618
I'Ve triEd many roms and every time I go back to hyperdroid gbx v12 the fastest I ever tried (too bad no FM radio)... u need to know that the only difference is in the recovery partition ...in general the sense Roms use 400 mb recovery and the non sense roms use 150 mb ...evey ROM installation is explained but if u dont know how too we can guide u ...
Hi Everyone.
This is my first post but i have been an enthusiastic reader for some time.
I know the answers to my problems are out there but im finding there is so much information im drowning and totally lost on what i need to do.
I want to put Android on my Telstra HTC HD2 T9193 via SD.
The SPl is 1.66
ROM = 1.72.841.0 WWE
RADIO = 2.07.51.22_2
Some sources say i need to go back a version before i can HSPL1, Some say i need to upgrade my radio, some say my telstra version is painful to change.
I believe the steps i need to take are:
1.Upgrade to the newest HTC Stock. But i cannot find a ROM to suit the Telstra phone.
2. So i need to use the HSPL method to change my radio?
3. Install HSPL4
4. Install the custom ROM
5. change the radio but i am unsure which one i get?
I think i have it mostly muddled up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Sej
assuming you want nand android
hspl4
choose 2.08.hspl
flash any radio with a x.xx.50.. version, higher than 2.07.50
flash magldr
flash cwm
flash android
Hi thanks.
I actually wanted to use the SD Roms.
Thanks

Flash HSPL4
Flash radio above 2.08.50 (I'd go 2.15.50)
Run your SD Android ROM.
in addition to what orangekid has posted, in case you're after the custom rom:
Flash HSPL4
Flash radio above 2.08.50 (I'd go 2.15.50)
Flash custom rom
->in my case, i'm using chuckyrom lite for my wm6.5. i noticed that flashing the radio to 2.15, keeping the t-mob stock rom and running an android sd rom caused a lot of lags. not to mention the famous sod (sleep of death).
Run your SD Android ROM.
-> i've been using mccm hd 4.5 and it's simply working great for me. do take note that there are tons of roms you can try. what you can do is try out each of them and determine which one works well for your unit. what may be working flawlessly for me or the other members could turn out to be a lemon for you. thus, try them out and you should be able to find the right rom for your device

This is sound advice Personally I prefer NRG for WinMo and ACA for Android
Hope you've made some progress here... I've been watching this space for more than a year and finally decided it was safe enough to make a move.
My HD2 has the standard ROM, I flashed several radios with varying degrees of success in terms of sensitivity, power consumption, telstra compatability. Settled on 2.15.50.14 for now. Testing continues.
Installed JaguarMIUI-V16.7 on a new class 6 4Gb MicroSD.
I have no luck formatting SDs (x2) for my HD2 (have to reseat sd after bootup to get the card recognised) and this one is screaming and stable without being formatted, just copy on the files into Android and Miui folders in the root of the card.
I have a boot loader installed but don't use it as the build is so stable it's not a problem to open file explorer in Windows, tap clrcad.exe then haret.exe the few time a reboot is required/desired.
Enjoy!
Hi Saj,
I had the same problem..
I found that you had to go backwards to go forward as Telstra Locked the ROM.
Basically i had to comb the web and find an older version of the Telstra ROM...
from there I had to use MAGLDR 1.13 to load the boot file
it did however wipe the WM6.5 completely off the phone.
I am now using a Port for ICS and i have never been happier
I will see if I can find the original post for this on the web and let you know
