Got to be honest. Feeling strange guilt after flashing Android to NAND on my HD2.

Dude... you really made my HD2 rock for ages. But you know what? The world keeps turning and Microsoft keeps waving their 2 fingers (in the UK, middle elsewhere in the world) at their best customers. WP7 ain't for the likes of us who want customisation and Android is the future.

Think we all got to move on sometime.

Good luck Kumar. You've been a superstar!

And maybe you'll start cooking for Android?

Hi Kumar,

What made you shift from WM to Android.

I am just so fixed on WM that I cant think of ****ing to Android.

Infact I wanted someone to port WM on Android Phones.

My bad, it seems you and many more are happier on Android.

THOUGH ANDROID MAY BE GOOD, I DOUBT THE SOFTWARE AND CUSTOMISATION AS PER WM. I accept that I dont know much about Android.

May be I am suffering from malignant stupidity since childhood................. ;-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] a_t_u_l:
Wanna know if Android can provide the below

Hi Kumar,

as you are an experienced user, could you answer this android related queries.

I sync my contacts from outlook,

I sync over the air my contacts, sms for solely backup and access them over computer in awhile.

I use some software which I dont remember, it copies my office files from the server automatically on connection to my sd card.

The same files hav shortcut and are pasted under programs to provide one touch access from main screen.

The program that copies the office files to my sd card again takes a backup of the complete sd card on the hdd, (and updated just the files either changed or added/removed)

My contacts have some notes which wholely or partly need to smsed or emailed on the go. the reason for keeping it under contacts is to keep a link and easy access from contacts itself.

I print over wifi using active print.

I transfer music from my mobile to ps3 using Wifi Remote Access.

This is my very basic use over the wm platform.

I am not sure but will all or some things can be achieved on Andorid and how.

incase somethings are amiss on android are they expected.

With my kind of my usage, is moving to Android advisable or waiting for some more time for further development is better.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] akshan:
If you like WM too much, chances are you will not like android UI. But it is fun to play with android as WP7 is not as good as WM6.5 (IMO). Try android 2.3 SD builds so that you still can go back to WM without reflashing. I believe when android 3.0 is released for phone, and if somebody ports the same to HD2, it should be better than WM6.5 :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] elmanortega:
6.5 is goood

i think that 6.5 still is good, for the persons that are not playing games all the time or need apps all the time, 6.5 is good, and i think that tweeking 6.5 a bit we can still keep this for a long time. But i dont see a brave one out there to keep fighting

Hi Kumar,

I am having one issue with Touch premium, the weather animation on Cookies home tab doesn't work full screen, not sure if it is with me or everyone. Noticed on my phone so thought of bringing to your notice.

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MCoolU:
a while back a few of us were having problems with the YouTube application. The controls don't pop up. I found that when you have the phone sideways in landscape the controls disappear and when u have it positioned back up the controls appear. is there a fix to this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Shroff:
Please help

Could someone please give me a little advice?

From all the sources I've read, anything that is based on WWE 3.14 needs to be flashed WITHOUT HSPL or else the phone could suffer.

However, in the default post, it says

"**** Warning ****

----Needs HSPL. Otherwise you may brick your device "

as well as

"2. ROM base as official 3.14 WWE ROM."

:confused:

I am a little confused, and don`t want to go any further until I am sure of the process. (I promise I looked high and low and went back through pages to try to find the answer).

Please can anyone offer some advice?

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] akshan:
You need HSPL to flash any custom rom 3.14 WWE or not. Only exception is Artemis as mentioned in the ROM. Keep in mind, HSPL is only SPL 2.08, while 3.14 WWE (original ROM) has SPL 2.10. Unless HSPL 2.10 is released cant tell what we are missing. Hope this helps.

Hi

Can anyone direct me where to download the Kumar's Leo ROM C2 Premium or C2 Classic? (I know it's old) :)

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MCoolU:
anyone with response to the youtube app?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] skr_xd:
Sorry friends. My bad.

My HDD crashed again:(

This time, i have lost almost everything:mad::o. Only very old backup i had from which i had to rebuilt the kitchen again. So, there will be only WWE ROM update to start with and other languages will follow soon.

WM definitely is much more customisable and have more functionality than android. But, iam getting everything WHAT I NEED. Its just a matter of preference. I can lose some for the sake of better, speedier graphics & UI, More better games, Unified mailbox, etc.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] skr_xd:
To be fair, iam not a power user of any mobile OS:D

So, iam not aware of the applications available in WM and Android.

You can sync outlook contacts using HTC sync. Also, over the air in device.

May be any other user shall answer you better. Sorry friend.

I have disabled weather animation by default.

Try using the weather toggle switch from CHT to switch ON the weather animation.

No solution for it yet:(

Workaround:

Turn the device to landscape before selecting the video. Now, you can see the controls in landscape.

If you can specify the version, i shall look in to my 4shared account.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] macqueyl:
Still Interested

Trust me, your faithful followers are still interested in WM ROMS. I doubt that I will ever get rid of my HD2. I switch between it & my Dell Streak & love them both. Your WM ROMS are still appreciated:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mn3kgtvr4:
Android theme looks great! Still PLENTY of us using WM roms and yours are much appreciated.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MCoolU:
What are you talking about? I love your ROMS and still want WM. I don't want android! I'm sticking to WM and your ROMS
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] qllkevuoi:
Mate, I think there's a lot of people around here that is still interested in WM Roms ... and obviously also in your great work ... don't worry about it! ;)

I like android, I am proud to be an owner of the first PPC in the world in which I can run more than 3 O.S. with great results ...

But this don't mean that the O.S. "father", WM, the one with which the LEO was build, is not still the most stable and "bug-free" (oh yes, it is) ...

So, don't give up ... don't stop your work with WM, 'cause is still veeeery appreciated :)

also because I'm waiting for your 21916 based premium ROM ... :p

Can you cook a version with identical specs (21916 based premium ROM) but without HTC Messaging? it would be great ... 'cause at the moment there's just a 6.5.x based rom of your works without that ...

Some people (like me) prefer the stability of WM 6.5, with your customization (like the tabs and so on), but with the possibility to choose between a version with HTC Messaging and a version without it ...

What do you think about?

Best regards

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] silverwind:

I ve seen many cooks discontinue the development of WM 6.5. I think it's inevitable. Because MS does no longer support.

I am just curious, which device Kumar is using now and whether he also cooks for his new device :rolleyes:

Hey bro we all are waiting your next masterpiece.I have tried many ROM's and liked just only urs.Since the beginning Im using just only your ROM.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] timbohere:
It is quite sad really. I have just in the last couple of months retired my trusty Blackstone for a Leo. I am not a huge fan of Android but that is just personal preference. (My wife has Desire HD and is fine with it) I have tried many Leo roms and have only just tried this one. With all the other finger friendly roms, I was unable to install Garmin whereas with this ROM, I can. I've only used it for 24 hrs and find it very pleasing to the eye, reliable and stable. Just might stick with it. Many thanks to the Chef:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] skr_xd:
Sorry friends.

Been a lot busy with personal life and profession.

Couldn't spare much time for the cooking and hobbies.

Actually when i wanted to do some ROM cooking, my HDD crashed again completely before two months and to my further upset, my HD2 also started to reboot and when i checked the HTC care, its motherboard is faulty. I got upset of rebuilding the kitchen & cooking without a device and left the cooking for HD2.

Right now i don't have much interest in wm as i moved to android now. I have HTC Sensation now and will start making ROMs for it if SOFF is done and i can spare some time.

Thanks for your support all the way friends.

Has anyone had their htc sense freeze? i'm using touch classic 4.1 and i've had it since it came out with no problems until recently. My htc sense keeps freezing. I press the windows button soft or hard button and it goes to my programs list with no problem. I also disable the htc sense from the hom settings and the phone works fine again. When i turn the sense back on it works and then after a while it randomly freezes again. I tried uninstalling cookies home tab and editor and reinstalling and still happens. any help please?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] silverwind:
Back up your data and try hard reset (restore to factory setting)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MCoolU:
I tried that and its still freezing with the sense. I disable it and phone runs perfect, then I turn it back on and it works until the sense freezes again randomly.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Matthes42:
Did you really perform a Hardreset? (switch off your device - then hold down volume up and down buttons at the same time - while holding them switch on again)

Doing that you will get the factory defaults and the initial installation will begin. That´s why it is recommened to backup your data first.

If your issue ist still present without any installed app you probably have a hardwware issue and should send it to a service point
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MCoolU:
I did it through the system settings where it says clear storage type 1234....But if it was hardware wouldn't the phone be messing up when the sense is off?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Matthes42:
You´re right. The way you did it is right as well. And you´re right as well to ask why only sense causes the freeze.

The last chance to test it is to flash this (or another) ROM once more. Sometimes a bad flash is the cause of unexpected issues. But if the bahaviour stays the same after a new flash it must be hardware related. All the other HD2 devices are able to run sense.

So give it a last chance. Good luck
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MCoolU:
I guess I will just re-flash and see what happens. I've been using this ROM since January I believe and haven't had problems until now. I hope it's not hardware though.

Hi Frnds

As you see Kumar has shifted to another phone and we are still with this one, anyone tried new Roms and would recommend possible good ROMs as Kumars.

Its frutrating to keep trying as we all cannot reset the phone again and again. Only a few have the privlidge to do this. If some one has tried a few and can recommend it here it would be very grateful

to kumar

dear kumar,

i d like to thank you for sharing this rom. i recently flashed it and really like it. especially the speed, and the original green colour of the hd2 in the menus and sense. another feature i love is the sokftkey bar, with the "turn green on press" soft keys. this rom is much faster than the energy rom i was using before.

its really great if you could issue at least one or two more updates.

thanks again
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kanishkapd:
hi

thx for sharing ur experience with the new ROM. i m also interested to try it out. but like to get some info before trying as i don't hv time to flash & re flash. pls refer to my post above & tell if those same features are present in the rom u recommend..:):)

thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kanishkapd:
hi everybody,

so if anybody read my earlier post no need to answer, as i already have tried that rom.(cracing's rom). for those who think of trying out a new rom i ll give my experience,

1. cracing rom is fast. slightly faster than kumar's i guess. especially during boot up. and nice bootup screens too.

2. mainly stock UI. no CHT. 16 shortcuts available.

3. icons are good. but i prefer the ones kumar used.

4. the taskbar and bottom bar are like the stock. difficult to install custom bars either. (no idea why. just wouldnt work).

5. has the task manager at bottom right corner.

6. supports secure box. and the option is present to record incoming calls.

7. things i miss are the cht, beautiful icons and the "turn green" soft key bar in kumar's. (which i really liked)

8. most importantly ;; cracing will support wm throughout.

so if you are thinking of trying out this, its worth a try.

thanks kumar for the wonderful rom you developed.

regards.

Quick question

Hey Kumar, first I'd like to say thank you for your effort on this site! I just recently got an HD2, and am looking at your ROM as my first flash. I read in an earlier post that someone wanted to have the bottom bar look like the stock one without the bubble buttons and I saw you gave them a link to your "Classic Oval Soft key Button for Wm6.5.cab" I was a little confused as to if running this cab after flashing your ROM would make the bottom bar look like the stock one again. If not, then is there a different way I could accomplish this? Thank you so much and keep up the great work.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wicked_beav:
Yes the bubble buttons is the stock option and then there is a registry change that's posted on the first page to have the start button at the bottom like stock as well. Now if you are referring to stock as in WinMo 6.5 as opposed to 6.5.x then you unfortunately are SOL as his roms are WinMo 6.5.x and can't get back to 6.5 unless he cooks his rom with that instead.
