this my friend is how some people will read your post:
"hello i'm a big noob on xda and i have no time to search for answers and i want you give me instructions because i'm too lazy peace."
so before someone trolls you, i suggest going right now to android development section and open stickies thread. that's where you can start

Read the guide in my sig and search/read before posting.

Once again, just search. There is no best ROM for anything, it's all completely subjective and different things work for different people. 'Performance' is also too vague, do you mean day-to-day performance and smoothness or do you mean gaming/browsing performance? If it's the former then a GB ROM is probably better for you. If you mean the latter then flash ICS and JB ROMs.

sorry, just wondering if there's a ROM that you prefer....last question, ive been reading few threads and a bit confused about the radio
i think i have an EU model HD2? because of the 512 ram, is my radio ok for me to start the steps? or should i go with the radio given on this guide? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044830

Just flash radio 2.15.50.14 and you should be fine.

Help me update my plain HD2!

Hello all,
I purchased european HD2 last month, but have never made any update, be it ROM or software. Main reason is that whenever I find an update thread in xda, it just says "update this and that", but I couldn't find any real tutorials that explain actually "how" to update. You guys are all gurus compared to me and you don't bother explaining details to each other But us novices are having problems. I hope a few answers in this thread will help novices too.
My HTC HD2 software info is as follows:
OS: 5.2.21869
Manilla: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.61.468.2 (74237) WWE
ROM date: 12/16/09
Radio: 2.06.51.07
Protocol: 15.30.50.07U
RAM: 448MB
ROM: 512MB
I want 576 MB ram, with the latest ROM and Radio (whatever this means), possibly with the latest SMS hotfix.
1) Where should I download the lasted software?
2) HOW should I install them?
Thanks in advance!
LOL just go to htc web site and update

Will this give me 576MB ram? Will this help me install the latest version Radio etc? I don't suppose it will.
Spend time reading the Rom Development thread.
You will eventually know what you want, and how to do it.

I always though the "ROM development" forum was about developing new roms, not for us newbies. Now you mentioned it, I found this one:

So, thanks for pointing out!

Read here. I helped someone today who asked exactly the same question, as people seem to be doing more and more frequently. Post #2 has the link to the forum with all the developed ROMs and also a guide on how to HSPL your phone so you can unlock it and start flashing a new ROM.
Read the links I have posted carefully and the brief guide I talked Avishkar14 through.

That's what those threads are for. It's instructions so you can learn how to do it yourself. You'll learn a lot more if you do it that way.
ye i know but im sure that i can't do it alone becuse im kinda scare to not kill my phone..
Just follow those instructions and you'll be fine, there's no use repeating everything here.

You have to try them out, and decide for yourself.
Sorry, but nobody can tell you what you'll like best...and how you'll want your phone set up. They all function differently when phones are set up differently.
I used AmericanAndroid or Americandroid...from an SD build. Worth a try, but try others to see which you like best.
Hi And Thanks
so what it is the difference i'm sorry if i'm bothering you but i'm new and i don't understand

There are loads of differences. The developers who create them, will WRITE about them ROMs in the forums here, describing them and the process required to install them.
To get that information, you have to READ what the devs WROTE.
ROMs are very diverse, and can be different in EVERY way you can imagine, and more.
Thank You !!
you have to remember that SD card ables dual boot, meaning you can run Windows and Android on one phone. thats great!
but if you choose a NAND, it will give you a more stable and faster ROM on your phone. NAND is more permanent though, so you decide which is best for you.
do you need dual boot, or not? thats the question..
