Hi. What are differences between MIUI and NAND roms? Which is better? I know that MIUI has better 2D score, but are they faster? Is the menu smooth and fast? And what about overclock? And could you please write me what kind of roms are available? Like SD, NAND etc? I'm new in that and I do not get it yet. And would it give me some performance if I created an EXT4 partition?

NAND is a method of installing Android to your internal storage and overwriting the WinMo OS. It performs better than SD android.
SD Android is a method of booting Android from your SD card. It is slower than NAND Android (still usable though) and allows you to keep WinMo, as well as being able to dual boot with WP7 and NAND Android through the MAGLDR bootloader.
MIUI, CM7, Sense etc. are all types of Android ROM. The only real way to decide which is the best is to try them out yourself (this is another place in which SD Android comes in handy, it allows you to try things out without any real effort) and decide.
Overclocking is possible up to 1.62 GHz with Dorimanx's kernel and many others support overclocking as well.
If you have an EU HD2, an EXT partition is necessary for many ROMs as the internal storage isn't enough. For TMOUS HD2s, this isn't necessary but still useful as it gives you space for apps.
Also, please watch this video and make sure to search before posting next time, as you could easily have found this information within a minute with a quick search.
I know about OC with kernel, I meant is there already in MIUI rom kernel with the OC up to 1.6 ability. Dorimanx kernel damages restore files, and the only way is to restore a CWM backup or install again from zip. But as I can see, there isn't
About EXT: If I have EXT3, then is the EXT4 better? Faster? Which one should I use if rom supports both?
About searching: I know, I just wanted to make everything clean, and probably I would not find these threads And the video is too fast

I'm not sure about the EXT thing or the MIUI kernel to be honest, I think the EXT version doesn't really matter and I've never heard about this damaging restore files thing but maybe it does. yz.hd has posted an excellent summary of all ROMs and kernels etc (stickied in the NAND thread) so make sure to look through those. I really can't notice the difference between 1.2 and 1.5GHz though
Those answers are not align with my knowledne about linux systems
Drivers for any hardware are in Kernel / modules so we had working drivers.
In *nix systems it was separated kernel/drivers<>os so on android we are using similar architecture - we had kernel 2.6 with HWA on GB so why it not just simply was working on ICS
MIUI ROM(2.3) is based on CM7, NAND ROM will be faster.
if your HD2 is "H" version that with 512M ROM, you should better create EXT4 in SD;if not, "T" version that with 512M ROM will not need

What are the benefits of running android from SD rather than a NAND install?
what is the most stable option ?
Unless you have some love for WM i would suggest running Android on nand. There are many fast and reliable ROM's out there depending on your preference with better battery life and faster than sd builds. I ran ones with sense and then jumped to gngerbread and now running MIUI. All have been quite stable. The MIUI seems to run the fastest but there are some tweaks you will have to do as it is not all set up out of the box. The Ultimate gingerbread rom ran great also.

I think the biggest benefit would be that you are able to choose from running Windows or Android on a SD build vs. a NAND build. In terms of which SD build is most stable, I was using the MDJ builds at the time. Don't know what latest SD builds would be most stable now since I don't care to use Windows and am using a NAND build currently.
Nand has 4 times the amount of DEVs = more to flash.
stable is NAND
Ok so I know it's possible since I have it going now with a Official MIUI NAND build and a SD Sense build. My question though is would it make the phone run smoother on Sense if it was on NAND with a larger recovery and such and then a MIUI on SD?
Right now I have a 150 Recovery w/5MB Cache I believe for the NAND side which makes MIUI or CM run great...the Sense build I have on the SD card is the BoxMax KS 6.5. Seems like the KS build runs fairly well and this is the first night I loaded the SD build so I'm going to load up my apps and see how it runs tomorrow but was just curious if I had it the other way would it make it run better on the Sense side or not? Sense is such a power hungry OS it would make sense that a larger recovery would run better but I wasn't sure if it would matter on a SD build or not.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Also interested
I am also interested in any feedback. and if there is any conflicts with a nand build with a sd build?
hi there,
What are the diffrences between nand and sd?
pros & cos between tem would be much helpfull
thanks,
Ronald

to summarise what has been already said, you should go for an SD build if you want to dual boot between WM/WP7. Its also a good choice if you like safe and easy installation. However, the SD builds are slightly slower compared to NAND builds and booting time is significantly slower as well. That said, if you want to trade-off the benefits of the SD build with the performance boost of the NAND build, you should flash the NAND build. It all depends on what you want on your phone. My advice however,is that if you want CM builds, the performance difference is little between SD and NAND builds. However, if you want a Sense build, NAND will be noticeably faster and better.
hi all,
i 've kyrillos v8.1 OC..,g3mod 2.0b2 as my primary rom with hybrid data2sd enabled...v6 supercharged ie) rom1
i 've 2 gb SD Partitioned...
i want to do multi boot...ie) between froyo roms...
rom2 - kyoraram
rom3 - dutchmod as system img files... my doubts are...
1. whether i need to back up data for switching between froyo roms...after i backed up custom rom ie) rom1...?
2. whether multiboot is only for testing...? or i mean.., whether we can install apps., add contacts...do whatever we did as in rom1...and whether all installed apps will still be available in all rom irrespective of rom chosen...?
3. how to do multi-boot between froyo and Gingerbread rom...?
hope u guys understand ....
pls i need more help and comment....

ok...it's always good to have data backup...so my advice is...do it...and i think you need data.img&sd-ext.img in froyo_data. folder for multiboot....
multiboot: yeah you can do whatever u want...install apps...create contacts etc...and when you'll switch. betwen froyo rom's...you'll have all there where it should be....when you'll switch from froyo to cm7....you need cm7 system.img also....and when i switched to cm7 from froyo.....data was there...and sd-ext was there also...only thing i lost was widgets....but i've got them back in no time
and yeah...i almost forgot...you have to have multiosdata enabled also...
happy multibooting

Hi all,
My HD2 had upgraded from WM to android 2.2.
However, the system is unstable lately (it rebooted occasionally).
Thus, I wonder whether I can do another upgrade to either 2.3 or 4.0?
Could you suggest which version is more stable and functioning well?
Also the how-to?
Thx a lot.
Yes you can do an upgrade, have a good read first as these are custom ROM & bugs will be present, those 2.3.xx versions are pretty much stable nowadays but you can give ICS - different flavours - a try also. Go the the SD ROM thread & if your phone has MAGLDR all you have to do is put the ROM in SD & boot from there or try the link below
Thx for the suggestion.
Just another Q: Why to store image in the SD? Doesn't it slow down the boot up time?
What's the benefit on the other hand?
Much appreciated.
NexusHD2 series GB & ICS are very stable and fast ROMs.
I am now using an ICS one and I am very pleased
You can found guides about flashing in my signature.
If you`re interested only in Android you should choose a NAND version to avoid slowness.
You can upgrade to this rom, now it is stable enough, enjoy.
