Well My dear friend ... I recommend you to install an android ROM Because the WPH ROM are smooth but that is caused by overclocking which is too danger for such old device ... but anyway Dynamics And PDAimatejam ROMs are the bests ... But I still recommand you to install android ... If wanted Android ROM recommendation just tell me ... Good luck
With Best Wishes

I had android before, but receptions was bad, I tried few radios no changes, and random reboots etc. I tried few of them and every single one have some major bugs like not working camera, or bluetooth or something like that.
good Android ROM is far more stable than best of WP7.8.
Most stable & bug free is WM6.5.5 ROMs and far more friendly on hardware too.
Might be worth try one or 2 more of the solid Android ROMs such as hyperdroid v6.0.0 perhaps then if not suitable trying WP7.8 but for dailly use WP7.8 is unfortunately bloody awful even on a original WP Device ...

Hey guys,
New to the forum
I've had my HTC HD2 for about 2-3 months now, and recently its been running really slow and crashing all the time.
Now I was wondering, would it be wise for me to upgrade to the latest ROM, or Android?
Thank's in advance.

welcome. you can have both - new rom and android. i would do that!
The HD2 is an awesome phone, you honestly won't find much better stuff out there.
Don't run the stock winmo rom, it's crap. Flash a custom rom and install android, which imo is much better. Soon we will have a nand version of android on our phones making it just as quick in android as native android phones.
Thank you for the replies guys.
Now off to find tutorials lol
Any recommendations?
lots of reading!!!!
Start with updating your info so we know where you are located and what carrier you have.
There are 3 versions of the hd2.
Euro version
Aussie version
T-mobile usa version
I would read here for a tutorial on flashing custom ROMs for the t-mobile hd2:

For all others:

To flash a custom ROM you need to hspl unlock your phone.
go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893
This will unlock all versions of the hd2.
For Android, the best 2 radios are usually 2.10 and 2.12 found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
These radios will work on all phones and are usually good radios for all ROMs. You need a .50 radio to flash most of the custom ROMs not to mention to run Android so might as well install one of these.
Next go here and pick out a ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
Most ROMs are compatible with all phones. Make sure if you have a tmous phone, not to flash any radio that has .51 in it. To run android you need .50 radios anyways.
I would suggest these ROMs as good ROMs to run android from:

and then finally, the Android builds that run from your SD card are here:

I have personally only used this Android ROM as I have found Android to be too much like IOS and only really find the web browser to be better than WinMo:

I really think that you should start with a custom ROM, get to know it, get to know about flashing before jumping into Android, but hey, it's your phone. How many other phones can dual boot?
Alternatively, you can flash the latest Stock ROM from HTCs website.
The stock ROM isn't necessarily crap, its usually down to opinion.
I use an O2 stock ROM, and have no performance issues.

I agree on the fact that the Stock Hd2 ROM isn't crap at all: if anything its the perfect one for me (so far)
I've tried the energy rom, the mirri rom, basic wm rom and all of them didn't do it for me looks wise.
All I really want is the basic 9 apps (iPhone style that I am used to) as my homescreen so I really don't need a ROM outside of wanting to find one with even better battery life. The Hd2's battery life has been great so far for me but is there a rom out there that is even better?
nrfitchett4,thanks thats really helpful
I'm new to WP7 I'm coming from android off my HTC HD2 and I would like to know whats the best WP7 Rom?
I´m using this one and so far very ligth and stable
BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA WP7 SERIES V4
I read about that rom. Is it activated?
Yes it is the only thing you need is your microsoft code to be 100% funcional
Ok so I downloaded the rom on my hd2. How do I put in the serial Key?
only when you use live services, that´s when it will ask for the code
!!!
The best one is the Xbmod!
Do you know the Direct phone number to microsoft so I can get the key?
I also can't send pictures on BOYPPC WP7 Rom
Can someone please help me with this. Thanks for thee above help

They´re actually all "stable", "fast", and whatnot.
You´ll find some minor differences in graphics and language files, but that´s about it. The reason for this is that all those custom ROMs use the same basis.
Just take one of these from May/June, they´re "NoDo" ROMs, the older ones are the initial WP7 version without "copy/paste".
Hi all,
First im sorry for my english
I have HTC HD2 EU version and everybody know windows sucks ;p I decided to change OS to android. And Im little confused, so many roms and distribution.
Please help me chose one or two
I want install NAND version.
Please give me your favorite! I want see the best with sense and without (clean+modes)
Thanks !
Jack
May be this is not you are asking for Sense but I recommend NDT ROM.... I'm also newbie and try several ROM. I'm using NDT MIUI ROM right now. I like the way they organize the theme. Just IMO
NDT
I would second the NDT MIUI rom. It is very stable, clean and fast. MIUI also has some nice themes. I would stay away from most of the sense 3.0 threads if you are looking to use wifi hotpsot and the camera as they are not real stable
The Cm7 roms are pretty stable to. Once you get Magldr you can backup and try a few till you find one you like
as stated before. if you want to enjoy your phone in all its ways, stay away from the new sense 3 roms. I was also the Sense guy, untill i tried miui. For me this the way my phone should work. Miui has ton of features its fast, its stable (Systeminfo shows almost 300 hours without reboots) and very versatile. Read the miui bible, cos there are features (usefull ones) there, which most users have never heard about. If you like theming etc. miui is the way to go. Everyday new themes which are applied by a click, no editing of apks needed. I seriously cant imagine go back to another rom, that would be a major downgrade for me.
the rom i use is JW miui from jan-willem3. jan knows what he is doing, so i recommend this highly

Can you tell me if is there any stable WP7 version for HTC HD2 ?

hard to say that there is stable version. every developer/cooker has their own `abilities and specialties`...but you need to flash every ROM that available in this wp7 forum, than you you which one is better. my personnel experience is, Pdaimatejam and XBmod are good enough (as you have an original wp7 device itself!)
cheers.
If I read the forums correctly, every ROM is stable, with some minor bugs. Depending on the maker of the ROM its all varies. I am currently running HD2O's ROM and I have had no issues, but you also need a good microSD card if you want to be able to run WP7.
same here, im using the Pdaimatejam rom and its working just fine and fluent
ps: i´ve owned a htc titan before so i can compare it, and the Pdaimatejam rom is working pretty damn good
all is mater of luck... all WP7 ROM's is stable... only problems is related to incompatibility and speed of micro SD cards...
Yes, dxdy says right
I do not think the sound in the earpiece or speakerphone is quiet due to the MC card!
Most of the ROM-s here, issued strange noises or clogged with unnecessary and cumbersome applications, probably because of this and do not go smoothly?
Of course I am grateful for the work of everyone in this forum, I know that because of the above lot of people criticized me!
For me, however, highlights the work of
TIGER ROM | 15 April [v5.0.0 | Stock UI | Very Fast | Fullunlock | OS8773]
It is a pity that interrupted work on the development
I hope I'm able to help with my bad English
What are the best 7.8 ROM's in terms of battery life?
Post your opinion and the ROM's you tried
Conclusion (from pLUSpISTOL, tomassz82, chemengand me)
It's not 100% sure, especially number one and two.
xuantunt
Vanilla
Dynamics
mi7ROM
?. ansar
+1
Or maybe a table to compare the features
Well, that depends what you put into "best". If you like stable os and good battery performance, the official release through zune is probably the way to go. On the other hand, if you like to run unofficial apps, some of the older custom ROMs are probably better.
A table will be hard to make, because you need to use every ROM a couple of days and the result will depend on the specific device.
I also think stock will provide the best battery life, but I would like a custom 7.8 ROM with good battery life
XDA-Devs Vanilla. Best battery life. :good:

I can confirm that. I have tried XDA-Devs Vanilla, Dynamics 2.0 and mi7ROM WP 7.8 Nokia Edition
Same as Tomas^
Great ROM, has all the features I need but you can add extras as personally needed.
As far as battery life is concerned, I think the best ROM is xuantunt's ROM 8858.136 RMT V6.1 Full Unlock V4 V-PLUS. It is the only one I have found to feature Vibrate-on-answer as well. But there are some elements altered that I don't like (info in About, some chinese context).

I've used a lot (more than 1 charge-recharge cycle) a. ''xda-devs Within Vanila 1.0'' and b. ''Dynamics v2.0''.
I also flashed ''NT 7.10.8858.136 V1 by ansar'' and ''mi7Rom WP7.8 Edition Nokia Mod v2'' but I didn't test them more than a day, so I can't be sure.
I'd say xuantant > Within Vanilla 1.0 > Dynamics v2.0
I can not tell which Rom is best because it has good battery something I like and spend the day with him rom
