Long story short- my friend bought a lumia 800 and I fell in love with the windows phone 7 OS. It is very fluid with no lag and eye candy you can stare at all day. So I have decided to flash windows phone 7.5 mango on my Tmobile HD2. But the problem is that i do not know anything about flashing new OS on a HD2 and I have never done it before. So that is the main problem- I am afraid that something could go wrong. Can anyone please help me by explaining how to do it step by step? I will be very thankful. Cheers P.S i have seen a couple of tutorials on youtube, but I didn't understad how to install it when the there is an HSPL on the tricolor bootscreen but I have SPL-2.10.000 8G XE. Will Windows phone 7 not wrok with this SPL? Here is the Image of it

Ok...I'm brand new to this site & brand new at trying to run Android on my t-mobile HD2.
Sure...I downloaded froyo on my phone & ran Android - but I seem to have the age old "robot voice" problem.
I'm no dummy - I see that I have to change my radio version or something like that...but HUH??? What??
I've been searching & searching these forums for the past 2 hours trying to find a simple thread on how to resolve this problem (which I REALLY want to do since Android on HD2 is friggin amazing & windows SUCKS!).
Isn't there a simple step by step thread someone can link me to that tells me WHERE I can get this much needed new radio version & what not?
I just want my phone to be as awesome-tastic as I know it can be...PLEASE HELP!
Thanks!

you need to do mnore reading. flash an android compatible windows rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
That thread is all about radios. You need to flash HardSPL first, though. So just scroll down and click the HSPL link and instructions are there, then proceed to upgrade your radio to 2.12.50.02_2 (I recommend that)
Enjoy.
NOTE: HSPL is also required to flash a different Windows ROM, so HSPL is the key to everything. Also, Miri's V17 is recommended for a Windows ROM since all the devs use it.
NOTE 2: If you haven't already, grab a class 4+ microSD card from Amazon. It's pretty cheap, and for me made a world of a difference in making Android amazing on the HD2. (I got this one, works great. http://www.amazon.com/Transcend-Cla...2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1283398119&sr=8-2 8 dollars is always nice)

2 hours? You gotta be kidding me. One of the sticky threads in this forum is [REF] ★★★The Definitve Guide To Android On HTC HD2 ★★★ [ UPDATED 28 / JULY / 2010 ]
No need to search for 2 hours, more like 30 seconds... it's right on the top of the page... if you're too lazy to read that, then Android on the HD2 is not for you. If you didn't see that thread, get some glasses
Use chucky Droid rom to fix robot voice... and radio 2.12.50 to fix sod...

sounds like a radio issue to me, have you tried other ROMs, what is your radio version?
Try flashing 2.12.50 or 2.15.50 and you should be fine.
tried the Energy Rom, no good use.. flashing the radio now.... thxx for the quick reply
sure thing, let me know how it goes.
Also, when flashing a new winmo ROM, are you doing a task29?
I have had issues when flashing new ROMs over old ones without doing task29 first, it seems to help a lot.

hello to everyone, i have hd2 phone with 6.5 windows mobile OS. I want to know if there is someone here, that is brave, good, and that knows to tell me something about win7, and that i can trust him... i dont want to risc, and trust other forums...
so... i want to install win7 on my hd2, is it really possible, and how exacly to do that.... thx for ur help, dont hurt my feelings
Installing WP7 on your HD2 is more than easy.
Manual: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912416
After installing it's best to test it for some minutes or hours and make your own picture of this OS. If you decide to use it further you have to activate it:
Manual: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928695
Please backup you SDcard before flashing WP7 as the tutorial says.
I you never flashed a phone before, i want you to say, that there is no risk to break your phone, if you do anything wrong while flashing. and everything is reversable, you only have to flash original windows mobile 6.5 rom and everything is the same like before.
I used android for 1 month and then decided to test WP7. Before i used it, i thought it is nothing against android, but after it started and i looked around i really fell in love with this operating system. It's simple and fast and that's why it's soooo cool! I would say it's worth to test it and if you like it, it is stable for everyday use.
Do it and you will know what i mean
If you have further problem just ask in this thread or pm me, i'm glad to help you!

thx good m8, u realy helped me ) ... i wanted to flash it before, but then i saw that someone posted on internet that u can destroy your phone by flashing it, so i must do it on my own risc, so i got a bit unsure... anyway, thanks again for ur help, and i will ask u, if i need something to know... if im allowed by u, ofc
Hey guys, im not really big on technology , but for the last 5 hours i have been trying to get android on my HTC HD2. I have ROM 3.14 and Radio version 2.15. but my SPL is 2.10. If correct i believe I need SPL 3.03? I have no idea as to how to do that. Im new on this site so please forgive me if this post has already been done. Much help would be appreciated.
Do you want NAND or SD Android?
Im sorry , but i dont know the difference . I think i have been trying to get the SD android.
In that case, you have everything you need. Forget about HSPL. That's only needed if you need to change radio, and you don't.
Just follow the instructions on how to install the Android build that you have downloaded and you'll be up and running.
Android on SD is pretty straight forward - it's just copy, paste and run - so you shouldn't have any problems.
Thank you very much sir. I really appreciate the help.

Hello everyone,
Today I received my HTC HD2 as a temporarily replacement for my HTC Sensation who will be repaired cause of a disfunctional powerbutton.
So now I would like to change my rom from WM to Android.
Is there a up-to-date tutorial for a super newb like me?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
The only decent tutorial that I found is this one. But its fairly old and I couldnt really find other tutorials.
Im not sure if I should use this one, cause i dont know if there are any newer radios, HARDSPL's or MAGLDRS or whatever. So what should I do?
Use that tutorial, it'll be fine. As far as I know, it's still HSPL4 and MAGDLR 1.13.
i use this rom i recommend it for you
