Hi all,
anyone knows if there's a ROM for HTC TOUCH HD that contains Android OS?
Thank you previously!

I've already found those links! I dunno what to do! I'm w8ing for safest ways to boot Android on Blackstone...
You can't do anything yet, Android isn't running properly on our devices yet.
no rom for htc touch hd. I advise you not to try
NOOB!!!
ok, i tried installing the adroid versions on the HTC Touch HD, and it didnt work. Now my touch starts, and then switches off.
i suppose i now have to install something from scratch via a pc.
any ideas ?
you could try to do a soft-reset
or try the zip version but both version is the same.
Finally, FRX07.1 on my HTC Touch HD
Finally, got the FRX07.1 working on my HTC Touch HD.
I had tried installing from a folder on the microsd (shared with other WM apps) but that did not go well and the installation stalled on several occasions.
My first attempt using a dedicated microSD (class 2) AND keeping the files on the root worked, so this approach is highly recommended.
Update on Day 1 of installation
Android was not stable. Hanged a number of times. It might be due to the known problems of too-frequent read/writes to the microSD (mine is an 8GB). Will do a re-install using a 1 or 2GB microSD.
Update on Day 2 (2200hr GMT 23 Dec)
I decided to resize my 8GB to 2GB with Minitool. Looks more stable now than before resize.
Battery life seems to be fairly normal.
Time drift is about 10 mins per 12 hours.
Update on Day 2 (1035hr GMT 26 Dec)
FR07.1 seems to be stable the last couple of days and I am quite happy with it.
Resized my microSD back to 8GB with Minitool. Took 3 reboot attempts (first 2 stopped at animation screen).
Installed Launcher Pro (free) as default launcher as I also use this on my Android ICS Tablet.
Update on Day 4 (0811hr GMT 28 Dec)
Stable so far.
Battery life is about 12-14 hours with light use (few phone call/sms) rest of time on standby
Migrated over from my Class2 8GB microsd to a Class4 32GB microsd
Class4 microsd seems to be more stable.
So far 100% successful reboots out of at least 5 times. Did the reboots because of trying to get rid of the strange keyboard on top of screen:

The Fagyi's NAND is a good alternative. Its under development yet, but it looks so pretty, estable, and high speed. The battery life is one of its issues. In my Blackstone 10 hours with the las version.
Bye
the nand rom is what you mean

It is more stable and faster than FRX07.1, did not notice clock drift and the battery life seems much longer. Managed >24 hrs without seeing the charger. Here's fagyi's list of what's working and what's not.

Has anyone found an actual solution to completely get rid of the wake delay issue? What I mean by wake delay is when you try to wake your phone from sleep and the key pad lights come on but the screen stays black for a few seconds sometimes longer.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
What type and class card are you using? Seems to be related to card. I have 3 cards. 16gb class 2 Sandisk = no wake delay on any build. 8gb Lexar class 6 and other 4gb class 6 = 3-5 second wake delay on all builds except darkstone's Super_Ram build.
I'm using the stock 16gb class 2 SD card that came with phone. I've alreAdy formatted the card and I'm using ozdroid Windows Rom but I still get the wake delays...So with your 16gb class 2 card you get
Zero delays ? Maybe I should buy a different card.

Try reformatting with 32kb clusters.
This is a known software issue and is present in every single Android build on here. The devs all know about it and it's something that needs to be fixed.
Actually, I take that back. I'm using Ginger HD2 at the minute and it's a LOT better.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Well its random. It will work fine for a while then I start having long delays. It's good to know that its a known issue and the devs are working on it because its the only real issue that's keeping android from being stable. It sucks when you want to show someone something on your phone and it won't even wake up.

Seriously, if you can be bothered to set up a new build, try Ginger HD2. I can go into standby with the power button and then wake it again seconds later, and it works 99% of the time.

Probably is because GB is so much more resource efficient, so the sleep/wake process is faster. I cant wait til theres more complete/stable GB builds released after awhile. But for now, UltimateDroid does the trick for me as a daily driver.
One thing to prevent black screen on wake is to hold the power button instead of just pressing it. For some reason, this cuts way down on the black wakeups. Between that and using the newest kernel by MDJ, I almost never have black wakeups anymore.
Oh, and it seems to me that the lower class sd cards actually help run Android better. Don't ask me why, but class 2's seem to yield better battery life and even perform better, or at least as good as a 4 or 6

Ginger HD2 isn't a Gingerbread build. It's a 2.2.1 build with a Gingerbread look and feel to it (and the lovely new keyboard too!)
Did you try what I suggested? Also, do a chkdsk for errors on your card. I'm using stock 16gb Sandisk card and have no wake delay with any build and latest hastarin kernel. My phone wakes immediately even multiple back to back locking/unlocking.

I have reformated to 32 kb a few times and it has improved some aspects of Android but I still experience wake delays but not all the times only when I really need it. ;-)

Hmm... not sure why you're experiencing this issue, but I have one more suggestion for you. D/L Advanced Configuration Tool for WinMo. Once installed, open it up and go down to section for Power Management and enable all of the power management options, save and reboot.

I will try this in the next few days. I'm wondering if the wake delays are directly related to the inconsistent ear censors that control the wake and sleep of the phone when in a phone call. Sometimes I will take my ears off the phone to look at the screen and the screen won't light up for a good while. Happens when I end calls too sometimes, screen won't light up. I feel these 2 issues are closely related.

Hi
maybe you should try the last hastarin kernel v8.6, it seems it has got ride of those delays.
May we know what are you using now ?

I'm using hastarins 8.6 and the delay is still there. It is a tad better but not gone. I've tried various builds and they all have this very minor delay. It is not that long but can be at times. Sometimes I think people have different interpretations of instant. The best comparison is to try a Desire or Desire HD. Press the power button on those phones and it comes on INSTANT.

I'm using v8.5.3. I've noticed it mostly delays when I quickly sleep wake , sleep wake or like I mentioned before while on a phone call, trying to look at the screen. I feel that the solution to this issue can be found by adjusting the sensors, but Im no expert. Does any one use set CPU? I heard that can help.

this isnt going to do a single thing in android... not even in the slightest.
When playing Texas Holdem mainly, dowloading, multi tasking, or gamaing it just flashes all three lights and reboots. I do not know if its my 32 gb sd card but I have tried normal 16 gb sd stock and does the same thing. Its really weird because sometimes it seams like it will be trucking right along for a little bit and then BAM reboot. I have read some things like voltage problems, overheating, and possible kernel issues ... All I know is that when I hit 450 million on Texas Holdem I really do not want a random reboot erasing my chip count.
I am currently running 15609 build 351 with latest non beta clockword recovery ... Was originally bought from dell under locked AT&T 1.6 ... I used qdl tool to convert everything automatically to 2.2 then do dell factory reset to 2.2.2 then flash clockword recovery and superuser ...
When doing normal everyday tasks it never reboots even by itself. Like right now not a problem. But if I get into the phone and use it like it should be its going to reboot sooner or later.

Do you have a lot of other stuff loaded in background/on startup? It sounds like you're running out of ram and the streak's panicing
I have 5 full tabs of applications which 4x6 per page would be total of 120 apps ... I have some system monitor programs which only show a hand full of apps running in the background? Is that way to many apps to have on this phone?

Had this exact same problem...
running flash, watch a video, playing some fruit Ninja triggers a reboot with 3 flashing leds
(tried stock and DJ steve's Rom)
got a replacement from dell, loaded my backed up nanadroid and have no problem since.

I had a similar issue.
My 1st streak was doing this, no matter what rom I was running (seemed to be triggered by wifi events) I was researching the issue and found there have been a few streaks that have either had reboot issues caused by battery cover problems & others that may be "just plain defective". I suspect mine was in the "Just plain defective" group. I had it replaced and no further issues (I am really careful about the battery cover just to be safe) I was less than 3 weeks after purchase so I had Best Buy replace it on the spot. since it has known issues they did not have a problem replacing it.
Cheers
BR
911! I had a random streak lying around so I copied everything over and sure enough it must have been a defective streak! I have over a million in Texas Holdem and we are going strong with not one random boot with the exact same set up ... Will be sending that other streak back per warranty ... I am loving this! Thanks for everyones help ...

I have an issue where games and apps quit on their own when it gets too crazy.
if you go into data/tombstones you will find crash logs, read through those and you can see whats causing the issue.
I have newly purchased an HTC HD2 and switched OS from Windows Mobile 6.5 to Android 2.3.4. I switched OS to experience Android and I really like it. I purchased this phone directly from HTC in UK. Now I have this problem that my phone is getting really hot while using it (whenever I browse my phone, talk over phone, play games or do anything, phone gets hot within 3 mins max). Android is running perfectly well on my phone except the lower back part of the phone is getting really hot (i believe the processor is there). I checked the task manager and found CPU usage minimal. Now what should I do? Can anyone help me on this issue?? I really need help!!
Please download battery booster from the market and activate it Please reply with the temperature!

Hi guys
Installed the stock german LA4 a couple of weeks ago and it worked just fine for a week, but now the last 5 days it has been freezing daily no buttons working the screen stays on, so the only thing i can do is pull the battery out and restart..
sometimes it seems to work fine but when you try to make a call with full service it just breaks before it starts to ring, and again i have to restart..
yesterday when i was shooting some stupid videos i noticed that the voice is beeing playbacked with a half a second delay and the movie lags all the way trough..
anyone got the same issues? or solutions?
I have noticed that it was mega fast at the start now it can be a bit skuggish im gonna re flash and see if that solves things weird. . I have also bought a class 10 memory card hopjng that speeds my phone up to

Have you rooted?? Recently installed any Apps?? try removing those apps. still problem exists then flash LA4 again.
Will a class 10 speed the phone up? at moment have a class 4
Thanks
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
From what I've read class 10 cards are not faster (in fact sometimes even slower) than class 4s. Class 10 cards would allow better writing of large files such as HD videos but for small back and forth read/writes its the class 4 that actually seems to work more efficiently.
There's some very detailed information on this somewhere on XDA but I can't give you the link right now. Do a search on MicroSd cards and see what comes back. Basically though I'd save your money if I were you because you probably wont see any marked improvement in speeds by shelling out for an expensive class 10!
Actually I've found it. Read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1150369

well i am currently using samsung class 10 32 Gb micro sd card and it's more faster than my previous 32 Gb class 4 sandisk sd card. my music won't skip now and scanning after reboot, deleting files and updating folders is much more improved and i bought it half the price of my sandisk.

i don't have that problem or any other problem for that matter with la4 for about a month now. i am rooted with cf root kernel. perhaps some applications that you have installed caused this problem. since my galaxy s, i have experienced those after installing some application. you have to be observant after installing an application so you can identify which one causes a problem.
I hv no problem with LA4 at all..i hope my note can be good to me until i got the ics haha
Don't know if this is the right thread to post on, but my brand new unlocked Note is acting up at times.
It keeps on giving me a message that my SIM card had been removed n to reboot the phone, for no apparent reason. Works fine when I restart the phone for a little while. Initially I thought it was something too do with my Sim card so had that replaced, but it still happens pretty much on a daily basis and I can't seem to understand why. Any ideas / suggestions guys?
I had usb issues after upgrading to LA4 but i switched over to RocketRom v22 and the problem went away.
Basically when transferring files to my Note the USB would lose the connection or stop and restart ..
