This is for Windows Mobile phones, not Windows Phones. Why they're saying for the Samsung Focus is beyond me, but I was doing this on my HTC Fuze years ago. If you read the instructions they mention using your file browser to go to the andboot folder, the Focus obviously can't do that.

I'm a noob at alot of this, but if your sd card is unlocked do you think you then run haret by putting its files on the sd card?
there is a developmnet thread about Haret on WP7, still far from any release ....

hi guys,
this might seem like a stupid question but anyway: why does android still run if we delete the folder while running android? i thought the folder is like the brain of hd2 android?

Well if I'm wrong tell me but depending on what rom you have it can still be on. If you have ram build it gets loaded from the sdcard and moved to ram.

Well that is because all the Android has been previously loaded into the RAM/Memory of the HD2, thats what i think maybe its not that way... but if you removed the SD Card physically while Android is running your device will restart!

no, man. this applies to sd builds, too
Try opening a single app and it will crash...
on execution, they are loaded into ram. as long as nothing new has to be read or written from or to sd (any app or data), it will keep on running.
Hey guys is this possible? If so, how? Any instructions? Like is there a way of when you turn your phone on you get some screen where you can select which OS you want to run? Thanks.

Hi I'd like to know is it possible run a Windows phone 7 software on HTC hd2 ? And if it is possible then how much space it takes on a memory card, and is this software like just a program wich you can to run or it's going to reinstall default software?
Why don't you first try search?

I love the wonderfulness (as in the roms meant for the SD are way better than those for NAND, as I've observed) of the SD builds. But I want them in my phone as NAND, not on SD. SD versions always freezes on my phone, and are very slow compared to those on NAND. So... Is there any way for me to port them to NAND? I do have a little bit of experience cooking my own ROMS... And tweaking them to my liking...
Don't know if its possible, but I was having a few lags in my SD builds and I found that my problem was the SD card.. the performance of the SD should be the same as in nand, the only difference is that you should have a better battery life in nand.. you can test your SD card with a program called crystalmark , you need a card with good random read and write..

Hmm... Problem is... I kinda don't have the luxury of buying a faster SD card... Need all the money I can to fund my videography/photography hobby... But I do have the time to port the ROMs to NAND if I have the method...
Try packing the rom files into a CWM file instead of current file format, install it, flash a NAND kernel, like TyTungs then see what happens

Wasn't a joke, but if others say that this won't work they might be right.
Been always using roms from other but from the little I've seen so far it didn't seem wrong else I wouldn't have posted it

I don't know if this method will work for you or make your device unbootable (Use at your own risk)
First, Turn off your phone and then mount your sd card from your phone to a card reader connected to your PC.
Then go the Android folder in your sd card memory and back it up to your computer (to revert back to it if things went wrong)
Finally, replace the files called (zImage, initrd.gz) In the Android folder in your sdcard with same files names and types from any other Gingerbread SD build (my suggestion is that you try first with AmeriCanAndroid AOSP gingerbread build by downloading the whole build and get those files from it and use it on your build that you want to use on your phone).
Place the sdcard back to your phone and turn it on, and hopefully this method will fix your problem...
This method might work in theory but because the build and the kernel are not optimized for each other, Some functions will not work as they were used to be (Bluetooth, Wifi, Network signal, etc...) or Android go into boot loop or even not boot at all! so if you don't know how to do this or don't know how to revert back to your original build/kernel after a failed boot, then please don't risk it!.
Hey yugoport, can you now try the kernel from isaiah build in nexus hd2 and post the results?

_SD.Magldr__isaiah12345_v3.1_160 build is nice, everything is HD/zoomed out, would look nice on a tablet, hd2's screen just about makes it usuable, any smaller screen on the hd2 i would stick to _240 builds, i like fitting more things on one screen, i dislike the scrolling about crap all the time, if anyone loves scrolling and tabs all the time then get a iphone, WP7, blackberry or symbian that everything done is a screen/page change whilst blocking out the status/notifications bar, i prefer old versions of WM aka WM2003se all the way up to 6.5

Hi, I've not tried windows on my phone yet but I'm tempted too. What is the best / most popular rom?
I guess then can be booted from SD cards like I currently do with american android?
Thanks
Umm, first of all, Windows "Phone" 7 cannot be booted from sd card.
And the best ROM is "Back to the Future" (like we haven any others :/ )
Thanks. How do you go about running it then if not from sd?

It must be run from the NAND memory. However, you will need to have an sd-card pre-installed.
Cheers mate, is that simple enough to do?

I didn't really use any guides when I installed my B2TF ROM and upgraded it to Mango.
But from the title, I can tell that this thread should help you out:
[Install Guide] Back to the Future [XBmod-Yuki] [7720 ready]
And you're welcome
just be advised that it has lots of gaps, no multitouc, no wifi thetering, and there seems to be no dev around to help, so if your not in love with wp7, stay with android
That said WP7 is lovely to use and very fast.
You will need to call Microsoft to get an activation code to use any of the online services. They seem quite happy to give out the codes just have a read of the WP7 forum for details.
