Advise to install official rom before they excuse anything

The permanent way it flashing MAGLDR to call android from Nand.

Perhaps dual boot and hacking wannabe

But the truth is HD2 is among cheaper way to get Android , WP7. You can use winmo + Garmin XT (the best navi) with safe way to dual android (via sd haret launcher). In between specs to HTC Desire or Evo for Android; & similar to HTC HD7 for Windows Phones. Alots easier than natives Android flashing, no s off thing or be specific radio for rom, & most rom is root ready . Once MAGLDR installed, its failproof for noobiem, very safe to install and easily recovered when 'bricked'

Try asking Fastech @ lelong, previously success replace my XDA o2 Flame crack screen,

Lotsa Android rom on HD2 has LED issue, try LEDmeknow for enabling compatible mode

Niv86
Missing icon indicator mean your rom might has problem,
When using LEDmeknow the program extend notification with compatible mode, u can also control the LED blink speed


My fella HD2 users;
In recent news, HD2 rom developmend rapidly increasing due to Haldric graphics glithes FIXED for Ginger-Sense rom. Now we have HTC Sensation rom with Sense 3.0; HTC Bliss with Sense 3.5 rom and 'Runnymede' rom!

Check this out
Android GBLeoR3 on HTC HD2 (2.3.3) by XxXPachaXxX

GLeoR3 is among the smallest Desire HD base rom. Require 220mb partition layout so Ext partition is not required. Gingerbread 2.3.3 with Sense 2.1.

HTC SENSE 3.0 (HTC DesireHD) on HTC HD2 by Dungphp

Gingerbread 2.3.5 with Sense 3. Graphics fix patch, kernel & gallery patches is necessary. Still have camcorder lag & sluggish playback on mp4 hires video. However this rom very responsive than DHD base Froyo rom (Currently test and evaluating)

I believe its normal, coz our HD2 in android not fully utilising 512mb ram,

andyjyneo
MIUI rom supposely runs fine on LED blink , for unsolved LED issue, LEDmeknow does really help for compatible

Niv86
recent MIUI has new launcher ala Touchwiz from SGSII, this launcher is very CPU and RAM intensive. Lag & sluggish performance might be unpolished rom or background running services

andyjyneo
MIUI is very neat and very skinnable than Cynogen Mod, speed not bad too, only its latest launcher feels lag. Originally develop from China geeks but now 99% port to English. You can try Jaguaralani MIUI for SD MAGLDR.

andyjyneo
Before installing rom, partition size was needed for reservation first. Imagine you got 512mb flashdrive & u will need to reserved 150mb for installing Android through CWR zip installation.

To setup the size of the partition, the flash.cfg will determine your partition size for Android

ie filename; flash.cfg



So (any) nand Android can be installed with be max to 200mb. If u put Rom which require more than reserve (200mb) , your android will not work due files overwriting & overlapping.

GBRleo still early stages, have to wait

when u using Nand toolkit, u only need to enter the cache (default 5) and the partition 100/150/200/ etc etc, once u click flash button, the installer automatically generate flash.cfg itself and proceed for partition setup,

So no need to edit the flash.cfg, this only was mean for traditional CWR installation.

no problemo,
MIUI rom mostly require 150mb partition recovery, u can also use the same Recovery (150mb) for zip install Cynogen rom due similar partition size

sorry andy
I never use the apps2sd+ thing, but the link you provide is the right one.

By creating EXT partition in sdcard, this (EXT) partition was mean for program and cache. This similar with traditional CLRCAD method where the (256/512/1gb) data.img use to store your program files data.

PATs JW is using different launcher but it does looks like Sense when pairing with correct Sense clock

kautahusiapa
yes u can do dual boot Android, with or without remove your current winmo , For new beginner, look XDA HD2 subforum Android SD, easy

andyjyneo
Incompatible ? yup, latest Gingerbread variant somehow does do that. The only way to get it run is flashing other or older build which is troblesome

Sorry I slow, I dun getit "have problem coping with the intense footprint" ?
HD2 on Android very good on stock rom Cynogen mod & MIUI rom. Almost everything work & less bug. Cynogen Mod = fasts, stable & recommended.

Sense rom from HTC Desire (not HD) perform well as original. For Sense 2-(froyo Desire HD2 base rom), it DOES run.. abit slow on Sense 2/3 rom. Sense rom for Ginger still unpolished but usable.

Wireless Data packet (2G/3G/4G) eats battery, almost smartphones have this problem. Activate the data packet when necessary. My friend was using SGS2 believe me its battery life is worse than your HD2. Kingmax or Andida battery may serve for backup purpose but usage pattern might similar. My bro using Kingmax on SGS, he say its better than stock battery

smileyguy
So u try Dorimanx ? hmm does it complicate to install it ? .. Once I see the 1st post I just skip that rom due information overloads*, yet untill now Im still looking WHERE is the downloads links on that post
* TLNDR

As long youre using Cynogen Mod the speed would be fast. Desire & Desire HD Gingerbread is not yet polished. If you want to use most everything working Sense 2 (Desire HD sense) the best one Im used is 'Imilka' Desire HD 2 & Coredroid 1.6 but both is still Froyo. Sense 3 & Sense 3.5 still has graphics lag issue.

When you have trouble with Sense rom & stuck onboot, its possible that you dont have the EXT partition on your sd card. Refer Jayce Ooi blog to do it

andyjyneo
Ya getting MIUI rom is nice but its frequent updates somehow trouble me, I dont mind with speed, all I care is stable

andyjyneo
I didnt perform task29 when upgrading rom, are sure its needed since CWR already clear the nand ?

smileyguy
Wow 20 apps multitask ? Erm, Does SWAP require EXT part ? I dislike EXT since my devices is TMous (1GB) , gonna try later

exavantz
Got your PM, cekedaut!

Its too early to use Sense 3/3.5 rom, current issue porting Sense 3/ 3.5 rom because the rom itself not for our specs. Originally for Adreno 205 GPU (HD2 is Adreno 200) & 700+mb ram (Desire HD). Ram actually its not at issue, believe me GingerSense 3 with 80MB RAM left is faster than FroyoSense2 150MB available RAM.

smileyguy
Eh, is this rom disabling its internal auto killer management ? hence fast program switching & true multitasking ?

Yup
Task29 afaik applicable for winmo rom, but Andy; its okay todo

LOL, Are you in fever ? that sound very tempting me to try it , btw, which version & setup u picked ? Im going to test this week

Synchun, Im agree with Andyjyneo statement, get a 2nd unit because its cheaper. But have u try reinstalling back to official windows mobile to confirm this sympton ?

I couldnt believe our winmo HD2 come so far , now we got version 2.3.7

approve = typhoon rom is very stable
