If you change ROM, make sure you repeat the steps.
Perform Task29, etc is the best way.

If you upgrade ROM, just wipe Dalvik will do.

I don't know, bro. All ROM chefs recommend Task29 before flashing new ROM.

Before this, I tried to flash multiple ROM without Task29. Only Wipe data, wipe dalvik, and all other wipes. Ended up, many errors and problems when using ROM.

I'm now back to MIUI. Haha, I don't know what's wrong with CM7 ROM on my HD2.
Always auto reboot.

Good, glad that you use a good ROM.

Wow, this ROM sounds good ya. Maybe I should give it a try too.

Wahlau eh, don't make me itchy leh.
Do they support A2SD?

I'm now back to TyphooN CM7 since they're the first to release Android 2.3.7.
Hopefully no more auto-reboot after this.

IMHO, if the screen is really so expensive, I would prefer you to buy a 2nd hand HD2, which will cost around RM750-RM950.

Hmm, my friend told me about this Galaxy Note too.
It's really a good phone, but I wonder how much it'll be.

Bro enCORe, new TyphooN CM7 is very stable with Android 2.3.7. No more random reboots. Very good.
I love it.

Yeah, CM7 is the first and only HD2 ROM with Android 2.3.7 right now.
Others are still lagging behind at 2.3.5.

Well, I saw Galaxy Ace has CM7 Android 2.3.7 too.

Frankly speaking, it's really stable and no more random reboots. A2SD supports it too. This is what I love.
Only slow reboots. I guess I've too many apps.

I'm wondering, will we be getting Android 4 (Ice Cream) in future?

I might jump ship to HD7 once HD7 is fully ported to Android.
HD7 will be my next replacement for my HD2.

Yeah, actually, I didn't really see any difference between Android 2.3.5, 2.3.6 and 2.3.7.
As for performance, yes, I can feel it. 2.3.7 is better than previous 2 versions.

And I don't really mind about the features.
As long as Android version is 4.0 (Ice Cream), it's good enough because Android phones don't even have the opportunity to get it.
Even 2.3.7 now, I can show off already. Haha...

Yeah, bro enCORe has mistaken.
You're right. Ice Cream is 4. It's due to Honeycomb already on 3, so impossible Android will go back to 2.4.

Never mind, you've helped us a lot. I learned a lot from you, bro. Thanks a lot.
I think you should take over as TS once this thread is locked.

Yup, I saw that thread also, but I didn't read thoroughly.

I would recommend TyphooN CM7. Stock native Android (no Sense, nothing) with A2SD support.

Look below for guides to flash and partition SD card.

This guide is for those who are flashing HD2 for the first time.

This guide is for those who are having problem partitioning SD card for A2SD.

Nandroid is a backup app.

If you've nothing to backup, then skip.
If you've only SMS and contacts to backup, sync with your Gmail.

Attached thumbnail(s)

TyphooN CM7 2.3.7 is very stable. More stable and faster than 2.3.5. No more lagging.
I noticed that to set a wallpaper, crop size has been changed.

I'm going to flash MIUI this coming weekend. Saw a lot of improvements and additions to almost all MIUI ROMs. Will give a feedback this weekend on all these ROMs:
1. LADYMIUI
2. MXZ MIUI
3. hstr DROID
4. GOMIUI

Yes, NDT MIUI is stable, but they support A2SD till 512MB only.
I got tons of apps, so 512MB is insufficient for me.

EDIT:
Just found out that there's a new MIUI ROM in the house.
It has Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich launcher in it.
Sportsstar's MIUI

I'm going to try them one by one and see which one is the best.

Added on October 16, 2011, 2:40 amThe following MIUI ROMs that I've just tested personally:
1. LADY MIUI (Icons are pretty, menu icons are beautiful and colourful, but the only downside of this ROM is the status bar. Not really attractive. I don't like the time at center, & HSDPA/3G/2G, WiFi and network signal strength is replaced by some funny icons.)
2. Sportsstar MIUI (Impressive ROM. Fast boot time. Boot screen shows "HTC Quietly Brilliant" logo just like original phone. I would say this is the best MIUI ROM. If you want Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich launcher, choose this.)

I'm really happy with Sportsstar MIUI, so I didn't try out the rest. I think I'll settle down with this MIUI ROM.

Yup, because it supports A2SD, most importantly.
2nd, very fast boot time. No more waiting.
3rd, they've ICS launcher, which is new and good.
4th, Market is not lagging.

Added on October 16, 2011, 3:58 pmIt's either you install Android on SD and have WP7 on NAND OR Android on NAND only.

Normally, guys who use HD2 are more interested in Android/Ubuntu/Meego than WP7.
WP7 is just plain useless.

Yeah, I like NDT also, but too bad, his A2SD support has limit.
That makes me think twice.

Try NDT GINGER SERIES.
Fastest CM7 ROM for HD2.

I'm currently using 600MB of my EXT3 partition.
I might achieve up to 1GB anytime.
