I bought htc hd2 second hand with windows 6.5 installed on it, but i did not like it so i followed some tutorial here in how to install android. i did that and i never been happier, however i was surprised when i run out of buttery and my device shutdown then recharge it and turn it on there was windows again and i had to do all the process again to lunch android system which drove me crazy because all the app's i already downloaded and installed on SD card were not working any more ...
So i have a few questions hopefully someone can help:
1. Is there any way i can uninstall windows from my HTC HD2 permanently and replace it with Android ?
2. If not How can i help my app's from getting lost?
3. what is the best way to back up my files and data before doing any thing new to my device?
4. since i am new to this system can any one explain to me what is the different between android, mglader and nand ? and what is latest version of Android?

[Q] Android/HTC sense problem loading on HD2

I'm having trouble getting my HTC HD2 to run Android. I'm not sure if it is a data storage problem since my SD card is only 1 GB, or if it an unmatched Rom that i have, but here are some information if needed to know:
Radio: 2.12.50.02_2
Protocol: 15.40.50.07U
Rom: 2 Energy(?) 8G
This is what shows up when i first load windows. I have no knowledge of "rooting" or "flashing", so if there are anything that i need to do in order to run Android on my phone please let me know. To my understanding this is a off the market phone, so nothing has been done to it.
What i have done already is put the Android folder to the root of my SD card, and tried to run it. It loads up to the point where it shows the big HTC in the middle of the screen, but then it just stays there. I am only able to run Android 2.2.1 Froyo on it by following instructions on this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5969936 , however anything else i tried it freezes at the HTC screen(Desire build, or other android versions). I was wondering if anyone can help me out? Big thanks in advance.

Question about installing Android after installing Windows Phone 7 on HTC HD2

Hello it's been a while that I have installed Windows phone 7 on my HD2.. (the first release from DFT I think)
But, atm I can't use at work to connect to the wifi because my MAC Adress always change...
So I wanted to put back Android but without uninstall anything.
I don't want to loose my data/config/activation from my wp7, I just want to install android in dual boot.
Anyone have successfully installed Android after WP7 but without reinstalling both?
Sorry for my english...
I have post in this thread because isn't only about HD2.
I think that you will find that the vast majority of users in this forum have WP7 handsets and so will not be able to assist you.
Logic dictates that you will have more luck in the HD2/Leo forums as the members there actually own the handset in question.
Kind Regards,
Creamy
yes, thanks for the answer, but I don't want to post twice (maybe an admin will move this?) and it can be for any wp7 device.
If anyone want to install an android system he has to reset their phone, format the partition and then loose all data/installed programs from windows phone...
Isn't specific to HD2, so I hope anyone has got the same problem as I have

Actually, this is a question ONLY for the HD2. Android cannot be installed on a WP7 handset (yet). So you are much better off posting in the HD2 forums.
Yeah, the hd2 is, generally, one of the most beastly phones to ever exist. You can even run older versions of windows, and newer versions of nonmobile Linux distros on it!!

Hope this helps, it did for me, also all the tool links are there too, I have mine running and even have TS3 full version, working on my Android side.
I do have a feeling though, that you will need to reset your win 7 side, as you will need to create and format your sd card for it to work, unless you are able to do this without the phone, then you could create the partition, but then you still need both partitions, as your win phone 7 side, will need storage space.
You will have to follow the guide to the letter, I did mine a few days ago and all is sweet, my android side is different to whats in the guide, but at least it is listed what i am running in my siggy.Best of luck and message if you need help.
More help to you, I hope.

Just a note, I actually cloned my storage on the sd card for the hd2, before I went about reinstalling, I was able to create the sd partitions for wp7 and android, then I copied the windows one back over, that way I saved all my downloaded apps.
If you are not sure about this, then you will have to bite the bullet and just wipe and reinstall, just take a note of things before you do.
You will be able to reactivate the phone by calling microboffs,via chat help, thats what I did, they gave me a key, straight away for free.....
ups didn't know we can't install from another wp device... so if an admin can move the topic...
hm, I'll try promethieus...
I'll try to backup the sd data then we will see... but didn't think it will works

[Q] a few questions about xdandroid

I didnt see an obvious section for xdandroid questions, so i hope its okay to post a couple here; forgive me and redirect me if not, please...
1. I'm running xdandroid frx07 on my htc touch pro off the sdcard. Is it possible to swap sdcards while running the xdandroid system? im guessing no.
2. If I cant hot swap the sd card, then (this may be silly to some but I'm tired) are there any android specific files that can NOT be read by Windows Mobile 6.1?
3. Is it possible to install xdandroid to the device itself so as to free up the sd card for normal data storage and transport between devices? For instance, I would like to install it to "\(lowest possible dir)\xdandroid\" instead of "\sdcard\" ("I know I probably won't be able to completely over-write the WM6x OS, so Windows will have its own folder tree branch and xdandroid will have its own as well. I already have Haret in the WM startup list so I never see WM except for when I boot without the sd card inserted (Haret just errors out because it cant find the files to boot linux).
4. I also would like to know if anyone knows where I can find and turn OFF everything that actually uses or relies on the Sprint/CDMA cellular network (I dont have a carrier, I use it strictly on wi-fi as a miniature internet terminal/remote control for PC & PS3). I would love it if someone could direct me toward a generic/non-carrier branded ROM to flash, that would do the trick!
5. Just kidding; I won't write another question yet, I think these are good enough for now. Thanks in advance for any and all serious responses
Hey there,
The touch pro is in the legacy device forums, here is the rom link fyi : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171070.
You would be better off asking for help in that thread

[Q] help with rundroid and android version

I have a HTC HD2 windows phone.
I wanted to be able to use android apps on it i looked about and saw rundroid but not sure on what else i need to get it to work this will enable me to boot to both windows or android.
I downloaded it and followed to instructions but did not fully work, i think because i need to have a version of the android software on my SD card
I downloaded 2.3.3 gingerbread but still did not work, might not have it in the correct place or file extension ?
can someone tell me what version of android i should use and where i can D.L it from, and where it needs to be on my phone for the rundroid software to work fully.
thanks
