I suggest TS to link up Shahzz's APN settings. The few android roms I tried doesn't detect APN automatically. Or maybe I'm noob.

Initially, I wanted to skip WM6.5 and straight to Android. After testing out some Android roms on HD2, there are issues that stops it being my daily phone. Some issues are already work in progress. Regardlessly, I'll let the chefs do their stuff and meanwhile explore what WM6.5 has to offer.

HD2's ability to boot Android gives me a lot of optimism. For now though, my SIM cards goes back to my HTC Legend.

I tried his bangsters_V1.2a CM6 FRG33 and I can't believe the flawless scrolling I'm getting. This build hands down, is better than the other 5 roms I tried. I'll see how the battery goes but I'm loving whatever I'm touching now. smile.gif

I got 2GB of ROM memory and I gave an laugh.gif .

I wonder does it really improves performance like a real 2GB internal ROM does?

How about the battery life? hmm.gif

One day no problem if normal usage (calls, sms, email, 20min surfing, no games). Right now, I have about 20% left.

new 2.1a rom is out?
anybody tried it yet?
*
This ROM is really good. The winner for me was the idle battery drain. The idle battery drain is only highs of 30-40mA and lows of 10-8mA stock. Compared to Bangster's drain of 65-70mA. Bangster took 25% of my battery when I was sleeping. This one will be significantly less.

I tried both 2.0 and 2.1 ROM. It's a lot of improvement from 2.0.

where to get this ah?  system.ext2

maybe ramen can post up the system.ext2 from his download. it will save me from downloading the whole thing again.

---------------------
On set cpu, it's better for you to get a baseline mark for your battery for a day or two first before changing the settings. For me, I don't consider of upping the speed as there's no lag in my video and I don't play 3d games on the phone.

--------------------

The next exciting ROM will be the HTC Desire HD rom, currently work in progress. HTC Desire HD is the much anticipated version HTC Evo Sprint 4G. Evo Sprint is drool.gif

DarkStone is doing the ROM now and he posted a video of the Desire HD rom. The good parts starts after 2:30 mark.

bangster has release his v1.4. it's quite good. battery idle is lows of 10mA.

darkstone released his Desire HD rom, but he still considers it as experimental. The camera is not working, etc.

If Malaysia so we set (axi gps_zone=my) is that correct.... thank

yes. that's correct.

remember that you'll need to run a script for wifi connection for theis PPP build

_______________________

On Darkstone's Desire HD rom, I am trying it and the new HTC Sense is a joy to use. I haven't run into the G-sensor problem yet so the Desire HD rom should be the definitive rom for me.

I will revert back to mjeeday 2.1 until Desire HD is fully ready, it should end my frequent following in xda HD2 Android roms.

Darkstone Desire HD is idling at 10-8mA and still no screen freeze/G-sensor problem.

Now I'm wondering should I continue using it without the camera as I have most of my settings up already on it.

you tried the htcsense.com and htc hub? doesn't appear to be working yet. probably on official release of the devices.

HTCsense.com doesn't allow me to authenticate with their server. laugh.gif I guess we have to wait until Desire HD is official sold in Malaysia first. The new Latitude also doesn't work, maybe for the same reason.

Good news to all is Live Wallpaper can be on 24/7 now. The idle is either 60mA or 10mA (mostly less than 10mA) so you guys go ahead and show off your HD2 glorious Live Wallpaper. biggrin.gif

Tried the HyperDroidEvo. Data doesn't work, so save your time and wait for the next update.

It is still the old HTC Sense, so I went back to Darkstone Desire HD.
