Preparing to update to WP7.8 v.8.6 from 8.5. Looking for an answer to this question too.
you cant change WP7 without flashing
flashing WP7 delete all partitions from sdcard...
better way is to use 2 sdcard... cards work much faster and stable...
i use this
one card prepared for Native SD with EXT4 and use for Android
second card use for WP7...

WP7 on HD2 booted via SD card, similar to Android. Or maybe a dual ROM with WM 6.5.x and WP7? Find a way to re-portion the SD card so WP7 doesn't take up the whole thing, and have enough to run a RAM Android ROM as well??
Here is how you run wp7 and android from the same card:

Hey, you know that you have to edit sth in your android build? You can't just copy an sd build and boot it with magldr...
This thread is a good intro:

Hi
I wonder if its possible to install WP7 and Android on two seperate sd cards so all I have to do is just shut off the phone and switch cards to be able to change OS. I hope someone can help me with this.
(I tried search!)
anyone? Help, please?
You can do this with one SD card.
Simply follow the tutorial from here and will have WP7 and Android dual booting from one card.
is it possible to boot ubuntu via a xap that does the same as haret.exe ? yes i know that the sd card is formatted specially but you could partition the sd card the same way people use android from the same sd......

you can dual boot, but not via haret, perhaps in the future but idoubt it since magldr makes it quite easy as is, now what woud be useful is dual boot wp7 and WM6.5,
Good day
i had working Dual boot OS with WP7 and android for the last 2 weeks on my HTC HD2 with 32Gb SanDisk MicroSD.
yesterday i wanted to make a new installation with other versions on the OS. So...
i formatted the SD card to New FAT32 and the PC recognize it well.
I went to install WP7 from there :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236027
and after the installation the phone reboot and i did again hard reset for it to build up the partitions on the SD.
after the second boot the phone got stuck and i had to take the battery out in i wanted to start all over from the beginning.
when i went to format the SD again my Windows didn't find it nothing i did.
i i used all the partition application i know but nothing - no SD or dead sd.
i also installed Gparted and boot from the live cd but still no SD.
i installed original WM 6.5 - buy fuss what - still no SD installed.
i don't know what to do??????
i installed also android on hand and tried to format from the android but still - no SD installed.
is there some magic i can do?
or my SD is dead?
i hope i can fix it......
thanks
your SD card is locked.... BTTF lock card and that card not readable.... you must unlock card first... send unlock cab file to phone and after that you can format card (or use old Nokia phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242071)
if you want dual boot without worry about locking card, try use Pdaimatejam Rom or DFT UltraFruit
also you have video how to dual boot android and WP7 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833
Hi

hope this help
