Alright so, here is what I am trying to do. I want to get the android OS on my HTC HD7. I just broke my phone (which was android) and had to revert to my old phone because I am a bit tight on money. Now I have seen forums where people have be able to load android onto a windows phone, like the HTC HD2 and I have also found a forum with all of the stuff for a HTC HD7. Now I realize you need ROMs and a few other things. I dont really know how to load all of the stuff on my phone or anything, the place I found with all of the information had no instructions it just said here is the stuff for it, have fun. I am not really a big fan of the Windows OS on phones, and would prefer Android any help please?

Got the chance of updating to one and have been looking for reports, advice feedback on this phone. Is there going to be a section for this phone ?
Thanks
Probably not as it's not an HTC device even though it is branded an XDA.
Is this a HTC only forum then ?
Don't know about that but i do know they have decided not to create a section for things like the Samsung Omnia. But then that is neither HTC nor an XDA.
Seems fair enough, they do say somewhere its HTC only, just read it, be to much if they had to do every windows phone out there. Oh well the Zest is on the way, lest see what it's like in the flesh.
Hi everyone I'm new here and know quite little about phones.
My question is how do I install the latest build of Windows Mobile on my Samsung Omnia II?
Also should I be worried of damaging my device? ie. Bricked Screen
Thanks.
Hi, Welcome to the forum, unfortunately this site is dedicated to HTC devices so you will not find many answers here
You may want to try modaco.com or maybe other xda members might know a site that will be able to help you
Hi everybody, i'm new to all of the Android phones and rooting but i have experience in Jailbreaking iPhones so im not new to hacking phones.
I'm getting very confused about a lot of things to be honest, and wonderd if anyone could help me.
What is the point in rooting?
Do i need to take the "S" of my HTC Desire to be able to root it? If so how do i go about this?
Next, is how do i go about rooting my Desire S?
This is all confusing compared to the iPhone, any help/Tutorials will be very appreciated.
Sorry if this has already been posted or if anything similar has been posted.
Please check the forums for your device.
Welcome to XDA. My advice would be to read all the stickies in your devices forum. Android is a lot more complex then the IOS your used to. Root is giving it admin access.
The search plugin us a powerful tool. Do a Google search for Xda search plugin and you will fund it. Sorry am mobile or I would link you.

Hello XDA!
Although I have been using XDA forums as my main (if not only) source for everything to do with Android and HTC alike, I have only just registered and am therefore a noob, unfortunatley .
I currently own a HTC Sensation, an amazing phone with alot in the way of versatility, especially considering the wide range of custom ROM's and other development material available from the highly talented developers within your ranks. I, personally, would not know where to start.
As I work for C.E.X ltd, I have access to a wide range of gadgets to play with and assess for my own interests as well as product research for my job. I have recently got my hands on a HTC Titan PI39100 WM7 phone for a two week test drive. This is a really nice phone that has an amazing feel and a nice big screen, however, I'm not overly keen on WM7 as an OS. I have searched and searched for an answer to my question but have been unable to find one on the web in general.
My question is, is there any way to port/flash an Android system onto the HTC Titan PI39100?
If this is a stupid question please let me know, but personally i beleive that the Titan would make a brilliant Android phone.

Sorry, I thought this was the general board, it won't happen again.
Im so frustrated, I just binned my Iphone wanting to go back to HTC (HD2), bought a stock windows unlocked phone but as Im a guy who gets nerved by doing things I dont understand Im now struggling to convert it to andriod, are there people around in the UK who could sort flash the software for me if I were to post it to them, or meet up for it to be done??...Ive my fingers crossed

And make sure not to get scammed...

So rather than posting in the HD2 Android specific forums, you post in the general forums? Anyway, this guide makes it as simple as is physically possible. Honestly, with an HD2 you don't have to worry about bricking it at all, you should really be fine as long as you read properly.
@manmad, he means Windows Mobile 6.5 rather than WP7. The former is a crappy OS with tonnes of lag and no apps. The latter is a brilliant OS which is sleek and fluid, but sadly still lacks apps.
