Android 2.2 on hd2 - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

hi. how can we install the original Android 2.2 on this device?
thanks

you have to buy a DMC DeLorean, change some parts and drive 88 mph., if you set it right you might get into the future where you can download the android on windows mobile installer....

I lol'd in real life.
But seriously. I realize not everyone can jump ship everytime a new phone comes out. But android on a hd2 is a dead and beaten horse.
As of now it wont work.

Yeah i know, people have been asking this for a long time now. But the thing is, if they wanted Android, i wonder why did they buy a HD2 in first place? haha
I, too, came from android, but I wanted to try winmo that's why i went with Hd2 instead of nexus one. Although i miss android, I don't think the Hd2 needs Android. I love it so far. just hoped sling player worked on it. otherwise, phone is great.
to the OP:
i would suggest looking into evo or something else, if u want android man. Don't hope everything can be ported these days. Porting a mobile OS is a pain in the you know what. And these devs who doesn't get paid to port, won't port it unless they really want to sacrifice precious time of their lives.

Its cause when I suggest HD2 being great hardware but the software is crap people just believe the hype... In my store we reset the phones at least 2 a week because it crashes...

ive buyed hd2 because of the good hardware. but i thik android its better than WM 6.5.
thanks

It's quite obvious that this thread is useless and against the rules.
To answer your question:
There is no Android available at all for the HD2 at this moment.
Please refer to the thread; remember to only post when necessary.
Next time, please make use of the Q&A section to get your question answered, and make sure to search first before asking.
EC

ok thanks.

I don't think the software is crap! lol...the only thing I hate about the window mo, is that there are not enough software for the phone!! and all the new stuff that is coming out is either for android or iphone.

Android vs WM6.5 HD2
I will agree with everyone that Android Market vs WM Market has more free Apps. I will love to see more developers create apps for WM or create a cooked room for HD2 with The android App

hey if u really want android on your HD2 i would sell that HD2 to the highest bidder and switch to Sprint and buy the amazing EVO

WM6.5 - Will we have it on the Snap?

Are there any plans for this from HTC?
Will we be able to upgrade the rom?
Probably not from HTC.. but thats what XDA is for!
Once people start buying the Maple in the U.S. (its going to be on practically every carrier) then you won't have to worry about HTC's ROM updates.
I'm sure someone will cook up a great ROM for the Maple once the device becomes popular- and it will.
maybe u can help us find a stock rom.
i already sent out the word to NRZ..he's gonna look into it
and mbavarian already took interest in the device. he made a thread about it..check it out!

You never know. When the original Dash came out we got an official upgrade from WinMo 5 to 6 a few months later. Maybe they will do the same for the Dash 3G from 6.1 to 6.5. Talking about the T-Mobile versions of course.

I have an actual HTC Rep through my Sprint Sales rep here in the US. We'll name him DP. I have access to HTCChampions.com and have yet to find any indication of this, i've requested the information from DP himself, and hope to hear back soon.
*Edit:
I just received a call, he said the only phone slatted for the Windows Mobile 6.5 Upgrade that he's aware of is the TouchPro2. Truthfully it sounded like he didn't know himself, he stated that the version of Windows 6.5 only brought a second browser (Opera) to avoid the "Anti-Trust" issues Micro$oft has been facing. He said that he has spoke to Sprint Corp and they've decided to hold of till Windows 7 before making any large changes.
PS, he called back with the information, and i was unable to get it recorded
Believe what you will, but between the HTC Site and his comments the only versions of 6.5 will be those that are cooked here.
dont try so hard, it really isnt that serious..LOL!
and "HTCCHampions" is a great site but "wmpoweruser" gets the job done, ALWAYS
heres hard facts to show that we will be getting an upgrade sometime in the near future, aside from what we produce here on xda but an ACTUAL release.

Actually Windows 7 is really great.
its ugly, they ruined the taskbar (even the classic mode is screwed up)
and they stole sooo much from KDE
granted, it is better than vista....but xp is still more reliable
i only use windows for my recording software so i dont have to suffer it often

Haha same here.
But honestly though every operating system has some type of semi-severe problem. For example Windows registry, dll's, and NTFS. Linux's ridiculous amount of distros (I use Super OS personally), over dependency on the CLI, and horrendous looking default themes that put most people off of it. Apple's price gouging, security by obscurity, and closed off development platform.

i like 1.6 actualy.. 2.1 is slow!
i got superD and it FLYS!
i woudlnt say 100 distros is a bad thing - it gives everyone a little bit of what they want
i use stock ubuntu with the ubuntu studio theme
i will look in to making superOS my default liveusb for next time i need to reinstall tho...

For us tech people 100+ distros isn't a bad thing, but tell a commoner to use stock Ubuntu and I guarantee that he or she will keep calling you asking how to play their DVD's, their MP3/WMA library, why their printer/scanner doesn't work (Lexmark X1290 in my case) etc, etc.

Rotary Dialer App

Is there any similar rotary dialer app for HD2? Kind of cool haven't used this kind of dial for at least 30 years!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anuZiwt_Bvg&feature=related
Isn't it funny you buy the latest technology only to make it sound and look like an old phone.
Pretty cool!!
And another vote from me for this app. Would love to see it too

Of course! Sell the HD2 and buy iPhone! I will never understand why people keeps on buying a REAL SERIOUS device (HD2) and want it to work like a status-simbol-toy (iPhone)...
There's already such an app for WinMo: Pocket Kai Old Phone.Net 1.2!
http://www.mobile2day.com/en/Kais-Old-Phone-Net/product_1082121_details.html
EDIT:
But it isn't so cool like this iPhone app, you can't rotate the rotary dialer by yourself!

i dont think it is that (and thank you for your kind dig) i think it is more that a serious users want a solid "serious" (in your terms) phone, if we wanted a toy we would of spoken to Tomy

so you want someones thread for a request closed because you and a few others think a certain app is not worthy of the great hd2......if this app doesnt interest you just move onto the next thread. some of us actually like fun/useless apps to mess about with now an again. really cant see the problem. thats all im gonna say, have a good day now.........
I don't know why lots of people on XDA Devs are such downers. He just asked for an interesting app and everyone comes and flames him because he's not "serious" enough or whatever the flying heck that means.
I've seriously seen some people asking for some help on the HD2 and when no one can help him, he gets criticized for being an iPhone sympathizer and turned away.
If some people want a rotary app you just say if you can help or turn away, don't leave a jerk comment, and close the thread. No need to be rude, witty or worse.

The iPhone has some great apps. It would be nice if they worked on the HD2. But they don't. But when people ask if there's a comparable app, I don't see a problem with it. I myself am one of your "Serious Users," and I wish there were more of the little fun apps for the HD2.
Serious users does not equal users who don't like fun little toy apps.

the funny thing is, i guess that no one would have been upset about this request/thread if there wasn't such an app for the iphone
Ok so here is the curveball i am not being obnoxious and i am sorry if i came across as such, i guess i just am a little sore as i guess many other people are that the windows market place is no where and probably never will be close to the App store, so it is just something i have come to accept. I may have bitten yesterday but it just seems to be so frequesnt people wanting the HD2 like the iphone which it will never be. I am always the first to jump at a new app and still am.

[APP] Android finally has Pocket God!!!

I just found it this morning. Suck on this apple we can do Pocket God too!! Finally the android market is catching up to Iphone Market.
The game is supper buggy like all of the other apple to android apps.
Its also freaking massive without a to SD option. Which kinda sucks.
I played it for like 20 minutes and I noticed that every once in a while my islanders would spontaneously turn into massive random pixel boxes.
Oh and if you have a lower end phone good luck. My Evo ran this just fine but my old Hero was crazy slow. So snapdragon devices should be fine as far as I can tell.
I'm not trying to advertise I promise. I just wanted people to know what I found.

It is running against the non commercial, open philosophy of xda-developers.
But you are right, it is a good question. But a very difficult one. How do you keep a forum open for development, knowledge sharing etc. and at the same time allow commercial activities. Hard one. Think of Apple and Microsoft together on one forum "sharing" some knowledge and experience. You gonna love that.

@OP
If there was a free version, that would be ok. However, this is a paid app and as such, that is why appelflap called you on the non-commercial rules of XDA (namely Rules 7 and 11). I know that you posted without the intent of selling this, but rules are rules and we cannot allow commercial links in here. If the devs of the game feel like they can offer a free version (much like the good boys at Rovio did with Angry Birds), then they can bring it here. Until then, I will have to edit your first post to remove the market references. This will be left open for discussion purposes only.
Love it
I have been waiting for this to come to android before I even bought my phone lol.
it works great on my Incredible, no lag or F/Cs so far.
Force close on Galaxy S too. Not a lot of good if it isn't going to work on some of the best selling droid handsets but I'll wait for an update before passing judgement.

hmmm, either you didn't search hard enough or don't know how to use the search function. This has been covered a lot in a good amount of threads recently. The short of it is no, there is no windows ROM out there for the inspire. I believe the last I heard was due to copyright. The closest thing you're gonna get is using a theme or a launcher. Search again and you'll find the information for a launcher that has that windows feel to it...it's buried in one of the threads regarding WP7.

maybe hes not up yet. or maybe he went to the tmobile store to buy that new phone, found out it can access android market AND itunes!!! Heard someone ported gears of war 3 to it too, but it has to be rooted
Nope wasn't up yet. Lmao
OP please search before opening a new thread as this has been covered. No there is no way to load a windows rom on an android native device.
