I want my HD's SD memmory to show as an USB memmory stick on my works computer... We can't connect PDA's (companies pollicy) but we can connect USB sticks....
Is there a program for Winmobile devices that does this for me ?
Like this?
http://cgi.ebay.com/SanDisk-8GB-Mic...205|66:4|65:12|39:2|240:1309#ebayphotohosting
Is this what you mean?
you dont need a program.
start - settings -connections - usb to pc - select "disk drive" radio button. it will look like a drive to windows like this.
N.B. you can only see the MicroSD card though, you cant navitgate the rest of the phone.
Yes, there is....
The best application that meets your requirements is Card Export by Softick. This application allows you to use your PPC (Memory) as a memory stick. It allows you to switch the device between AcytiveSync and USB Memory mode, and vice versa straightforwardly: excellent.

hello? did you read my post? you can tell the HD to ask you how you want to connect everytime you plug in the usb cable: ActiveSync or Disk Drive. YOU DONT NEED TO INSTALL ANYTHING.
Frustin is fully right - you don't need anything. In addition, notice that you don't need activesync if you are using it as an external drive, just the usual USB drivers. So it is very convenient to move files around different machines...
in particular, you don't need wmstorage or similar as with older htc models...
cannot avoid stating once more, after two weeks of use: this is the greatest windows mobile device i never had...
Really? Sorry!

Sorry, I have yet not received my Touch HD. However, on my current HTC (Polaris), in USB to PC, I only have the Enbale advanced network functionality. Is the option you mention exclusove to Touch HD? Could you please post a screenshot?
Thank you...
Seams a strange question to even ask considering every time you connect your phone to a PC it actually asks you which mode to use to connect with!

It's a bit naughty to give advice on a product you dont own, even if you think you might know. Had Lord.Bachus could have gone out and bought a product on the back of that advice, he would have been very peaved when he found out he didnt have to.
No contribution!

No one is as stupid to buy a product without evaluating it, first when it includes a a trial period (you may be the sort of people who complain to have bought an application and found out it does meet his/her requirement).
Besides that, I am not too sure of this option. As for not owing a product (owing to delays from mobiles.co.uk), it is at least dull to claim that just for the fact of not owing a specific device I cannot advise of particular aspect, of it when these devices run on a common platform!
Anyhow, I see no point in your response (not constructive at all); you could at least, if you have the device, show this setting to Lord.Bachus and everyone else who is unaware of it.
I debated over answering this however...

Stupidity does not come into it. You gave sure advice, based on nothing but your old software. As Forest Gump's mother says, "stupid is as stupid does".

You can not advise? Nevertheless you did advise (incorrectly), after I already posted the solution.

I am not going to continue with your stupid conversation; if you are bored, look for chatting sites!
In any case, the solution I mentioned differs from yours: it shows the current free memory and allows to set the memory card to read-only. In addition, it allows for boh modes to be changed quickly. Thus, it is more advanced. People want various solutions to enable them to make final the decision themselves not imposed on them.
The fact that you suggest Copilot for a query on navigation software does not imply no one else can advise on alternative solutions, such as Tomtom...

Well just the opinion of a stupid person who bought the HD with no research into it whatsoever but frustin is correct you offered a solution based on no actual experience with the device or knowinig if the software you recommended even works on the device. Now who's the time waster???

This application, which is merely under 200KB in size only disables ActiveSync and load univesal mass storage drivers...why will not be compatible at that level. It may not disaply full sceren on a 480*800 display, but urely it not be incomptible! This is the current situation of most software when used on WVGA devices.
Test it and prove me wrong:
http://www.softick.com/pocket-pc/cardexport2/
go to www.windowsmobile.com/getstarted
download step 2 and 3 if you don't have that
then just follow the instructions
start microsoft activesync on your PC and connect your device
then just wait a minute and it's done
Then,
download HSPL, install it and open it, now you can see at your mobile it's installing
don't shock if you see ''we've hacked it'' that's good
well, that's done
now download CustomRUU and place it on your desktop
after that download an RadioROM that's higher then 2.08....(the first downloads)(this link is for the HTC HD2, for other HTC phones just search it at Google) and place it also on your desktop
your mobile must still be connected with ActiveSync
use CustomRUU and follow the instructions, press next enz
then you come to a menu with a button UPDATE, press that one
now i'ts updating, first on your mobile you see the colour screen, then just wait
then on your pc and mobile you see a progress balk, just wait till 100%, and you mobile restarts
now that's done, you can start with android stuff
download the Froyostone_Sense.7z
unzip the file, then place the folder ''Android'' to your mobile's SD card
wait till that's done and the folder is on your mobile
then unmount your mobile from your PC
go to the file manager app on your mobile,
file manager>storage card>android
then tap the file CLRCAD, sometimes there comes a little install screen, tap YES on that
well, after tapping CLRCAD, nothing happens, so that's good
then tap the file HARET, then there comes a progress balk with ''booting linux''
well, then you just need to wait
your mobile's screen turns black, and first there come little white numbers enz, that became bigger ones later
well, just wait a few minutes till your mobile restarts
first you see the white screen with HTC in the middle
then after a minute or something there comes a black screen with Android in the middle
now you're done, and you can start figuring out how everything works

And people, i just made this post cause i couldn't find a FULL build to install android, now it's just all together in one post, and no, i didn't made the downloads or something, it's just to help you
hi some screenshot please
what is the difference between this thread and others?
i dont want android on a sd card but i want to replace the whole WM system by android and use the phones main memory and ram. To do this you can use the architecture of the HTC Desire HD, because it is almost the same product.
What the h....?
This is very old stuff from Darkstone.... 7th of August? What kind of joke is this?
The ops better close this thread.
You mean I will be able to run Android on my HD2 then? This cannot be happening! What a Christmas present...
In this Sense: Merry Christmas to you all !!!
Flaming Removed
Why dont you just put this thread under something different like "The Dummies guide to putting Android on your HD2 with a build from August wich is now outdated and not all the bugs are gonna be ironed out anyway but im a dummie so i suppose i have to use it" Long Title i know,is this guy seriuse or is this anougher joke thread
i thought somebody figured out nand. Oooopss. Wrong turn i guess. Wait what DARKSTONE HAS RAM VERSION and ITS FASTERRRR. Thanks MDJ for the Gingerbread

You could easily instructed: Copy Android folder into SD, and Click on those two files...and wait.
It make you looked so stupid by writing three pages on something that can be said and done via just one line....
My opinion - if to do faq for beginners that to do properly. Why in a cap it is told that it is necessary to establish custom rom and hspl? When it is possible to update simply an firmware on last official? I met many posts where people complained of those or which other problems at me was not. And at all these people stood custom firmware. Conclusions do.
Sorry for my english

Ok, so WP7 is working lovely, its reporting as a HD7 as far as we can see and MS sees it as an HD7 in the marketplace
So, how is it that if i look in "My pictures" on my computer i sync my phone with i see a folder called "From LEO70"
Number of posibilities i guess,
first being that im the only one who has this
or it happens because the phone was connected to zune before the reg edit
finally, Zune knows something we dont!
Im guessing number 2 if anyone else sees this?
Just curious really, because if there is something that is revealing our HD7 is infact a Leo i'd rather it didnt.
The answer is simple: You must have flashed the first WP7 for HD2 ever: It comes with the name "Leo70", which is also the model name inside the ROM.
The newer custom ROMs change the model name.
No need to worry. But maybe you might prefer to flash a custom ROM - almost all of them are jailbroken, too. Another big advantage.

I noticed that this update appeared on Zune. Think I'll wait till some of the experts here give us advice if this can be applied to the WP7 on the HD2
thats why i didnt install update afraid it might jack up my hd2.wait and see what the pros do
send a report to microsoft saying your hd2 cant update
lol, someone should try and use the update for there hd2 and tell us how it goes,
believe it or not, i wouldn't be surprised if some hd2's update good and some don't.
we'll let the dev's make a new rom for this than.
Seeing the same on mine.. runs through the process, then backs out the changes saying registry settings are invalid

yea i just connected my phone and the update popped up, i'll give it a try and post back up with what it says.
Same thing here with DFT build for HD2, registry error and it backed out.
lol Guys, why would the update work, as its meant for an HD7, not a reg hacked HD2.??? THe hardware specs are not the same so the drivers will have been changed/modded so it just aint gonna happen.
Dont bother trying to apply the update, we'll have to all wait until the new rom is dumped and re-hacked.
You will also know that the new rom will block chevron unlocking, although schaps is on the case, google for more info

Nice to hear this, either way trying wouldn't have hurt anyone.
I am using HD2 with WP7. Itried earlier to install the update, I have received an error.
Link to the Zune error here:

Some people are just born dumb.
i hate to say i told you so but i cant resist.
I did say that there would be a way for MS to identify our HD2s, there will be some common reg entry or file in the original DFT release that they have scanned for and i got slated for it. oh well, going to have to wait for a updated ROM my thinks, and based on the fact that this update only changes the way in which our phones get updated i dont think there is any point in the slightest in installing this.

I'm see no reason why Microsoft wouldn't be able read your phone's IMEI before updating. It's a more reliable model identifier than anything in the registry, and will instantly tell them they're dealing with a HD2.
Indeed, not much point in trying to apply this update. At best, you gain very little (no new features). At worst, you're going to have to reflash.

Very happy!
DFT SIMPLY ROCKS the planet! HD2 Owners have to be happy
Woohoo!
We all know it's possible.
Now it's just the waiting game.
Still at a loss... what exactly is NoDo?
Copy and paste, marketplace search and bug fixes and the name NoDo is a dig at android (No doughnut)

Bravo bravo DFT
Two thumbs up from this guy!
Although this is really really nice, i am in a "dilemma" right now
Trying Dual boot right now still with an old ROM or wait until NoDo gets finally released.
Anyway, thumbs up for their great work!
Great! Looking forward to testing this!
I've got WP7 running all the time and I love it.
with bated breath I await this update.
Never mind the update, what we need is an updater, Zune can do it so its possible, just need to fine out exactly what it does / how it does it!
^^^^^^^^ ..
True, because no matter what DFT brought us today, they won't be supporting the HD2 (especially WP7 on it) forever .
But at the meantime, who cares !!!
WE HAVE NODO
I vote the notion of having ability to update our beloved HD2 using Zune itself... This way we have more secure path for the future upgrades but I don't know how hard this could be?
but so far, DFT is keeping HD2 alive and mango is far far away...
Thanks DFT

well as far as i can tell, and not having a native WP7 device means thats not very much, the HD2 has two potential issues, firstly, and most obviously, Zune apparently detects either a reg entry or a system file difference that identifies the HD2 as an HD2
secondly, when the device does its reboot thing before atempting a backup Windows 7 detects and installes a LEO device driver.
now it does the second thing even when you use a windows system that has never had a LEO attached, so something during the restart/flash screen is shouting LEO
now the question is, is Zune really detecting a reg entry / file issue, or is it the LEO device driver....
whats your thoughts?
it could of course be both, what would be handy is a complete reg dump of a HD2 and the WP7 device our ROM comes from to see if there is any likely differences that may be the reason.
likewise it would be handy to get ahold of the driver that is installed for the WP7 device our ROM comes from when it goes in to updating mode, could it be as simple as messing about with some hardware IDs and system driver files on the PC? doubt it, but good as place as any to start
