I have a TMOUSA like you, running Elegancia V1 ROM, Class 4 8GB SD. I've never formatted the SD.....can't see a reason to since every Android build I've ran has functioned fine.

My Android of choice is mattc's Leo + Froyo w/Sense 1.5b. I using a live wallpaper with setcpu and Advanced Task Killer to assist with keeping battery drain under control.

I've been a BIG supporter of WinMo and had some initial reluctance about migrating to Android, but I've pretty much taken a big bite of the bullet. Android is very nice, fast with tons of applications free for the using.

Lot's of talented developers and (of course) the genius of Cotulla creating the images we all clamor for.

Final thoughts:

No robo voice

runs smooth (even with live wall paper)

I get about 18 hrs out of fully charged battery - average 45 min calls, a few texts, check mail every few hours and read FBreader about two hours a day

Wifi & BT working, except no phone transfer to BT headset

GPS works fine and google navigator is the ****z!

I tried almost all the builds, but matt's is the one for me (right now, anyhow)

HTC HD2, European Version, one of the first Devices, Running:

*Sandisk 16gb Micro SD

*HSPL3 (2 days ago HSPL1.4 without problems)

*ChuckyDroidRom (2 days before RTT German ROM without problems)

*Leo_RADIO_2.11

*FroyoStone Sense

*Media Pack (for ringtones/notifications)

For me absolutely the same! Touchscreen could be better AND the "unlock screen" could be fixed, my text is under the black line, maybe its because of the german text?

Its running perfectly now. No screen freezes, no robotic voice. Its running well. I have darkstone froyo v2.1. My radio is 2.12

To keep the battery running good, i use a app called greenpower , advance task killer and setcpu .. my battery cab last all day!!! I use android as my main os!!!

DarkStone Froyo Series V1 here - battery is my only concern stopping me from making Android OS my primary - I can go from morning til late night on one charge which is not that bad but still WinMo has better battery life on my hd2

Wow! Thats impressive! Perhaps a rom change is in order for me! I am big on texts though, which tends to take a beat stick to the battery and brutally dominate it to about 12 hrs anyway. :D

PS: i don't use any cpu or task manager programs and my battery life is good. every 15 minutes email check, listen to music for about 30 mins and browsing via internet.

Radio: 2.12

ROM: Miri's 6.5 Rom

Build: Mattc's with sense

Card: 16gb stock

First off, to my surprise battery life is not bad at all, in fact about the same as winmo with sense. The main problems I have faced are touch screen going unresponsive at times and some apps not working like flashlight. But... gps signal seems even stronger than on winmo, and yes, Google navigation rocks, better than most paid gps apps on winmo. Android has revived my hd2 and kept me from selling it. Speed is very good, better than winmo, better than my espresso. WiFi works normally, as does data. I think some of my touch screen issues are SD card related, but I don't think it will be long before we have a Rom and a lot of issues are solved regarding this, as well as the sleep of death issue. I thought I was getting sod's on this build but actually just didn't realize the green button turns the screen back on. XD

But all in all, Android has been the best thing to happen to my hd2. Oh and while typing his message I just realized how much better keyboard is on this than on winmo. Not even using swype. :)

It's just hard to believe is all. I couldn't get that kind of battery life in WM let alone Android. You are getting 3.36 % loss per hour with pretty heavy use. Most people don't get that with minimal use. I sure don't.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MartyLK:
I think the loss with mine, shub being the best of them for battery life, is probably about 10% loss per hour usage. It seems to get worse with the screen off, though. However, I fully charged my HD2 last night prior to sleeping and turned off the wifi, auto Sync and thought the data was off, but it had turned on some time after disabling wifi, and about 10 hours later when I awoke, the battery was at 36%. This is with shubCRAFT 1.4c. The other builds drain it completely overnight.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cs378:
I have shub Rom 1.4b on.

I use it full time now.

Android is much much better than WM.

To me, the battery draining issues feel the same even using WM. My phone will not last 1 day using WM. So thats a tie for Android and WM

Screen freezes some times, but it comes back fast. WM freezes, it'll take a long time to come back. By the time it comes back I have already reset that damn thing. Android wins here.

Everything else, yeah Android wins

so Fck WM, I would love to just flash the WM sht out of my phone.

(No money to get Android phone now)

Everything OK except GPS

TMOUSA

Running the following:

16Gb SDHC formatted in 64Kb blocks.

2.12.50.02 Radio

ChuckyROM

mattc Leo + Froyow/Sense 1.5b (w/ zImage as uploaded.)

SetCPU

Everything works fine--very smooth actually--except for the GPS.

The GPS starts fine (using GPS Test). Leave it like that for a while, however, and the GPS receiver sort of crashes/freezes, displaying values from the last valid state. Quitting GPS Test also does not remove the "Location" icon on the statusbar/taskbar/whatever you call the bar on top. Same thing happened using AndOSM, so it's not an individual software problem.

Similar issues, anyone? Thanks! :)

edit: icon still stays there after I turn off Use GPS satellites. turning it back on doesn't solve the problem, only a restart does. restarting the phone is also a hassle since I have to take the battery off for 5mins before it restarts, as this unit seems to be a lemon.

I have tried all of build and all of them are fine. They are fast, smooth and stable. However, I change back to windows mobile because I want to watch video over the web browser (skyfire). All of android build so far can't play the flash video over the web browser smoothly. It full of lag and haltingly played. The conclusion, none of android build can play flash video (any video in any website) well I tried so far:(

Does anyone know how to fix it? I'll appreciate whatever the reply from you guys.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dazza9075:
Well im very open to trying new things, im not going to slap myself in one camp or another, so i hope people will think my views are fair,

Firstly, installed latest energy 23xxx WM ROM with 2.15.50.x radio then installed android 2.2 Froyostone on to a fresh card, updated both with all my contacts, email and text messages, sync, facebook intigration, the works

Ran android for a week, then back to WM for a week and finally back to android and my conclusion?

Sorry boys but android does have a freshing look about it and it does have a huge supply of apps but it doesnt actually bring anything new, now im making allowances for speed / stability due to it being bodged on to wm at the moment so im not judging those areas at all, i fully expect them to be better then WM on a more finished product

But, which did i prefer? well wm seemed more logical but then i have used it for a decade, it was much easier to work with my hotmail account and of course i can use myphone which is a lot more polished than anything i found in the app stores. So i then started swaping between them and largely i found myself back with WM and just playing with android

But, im going to say something that will likely enrage all the young ones today

There is nothing wrong with WM, it works, as does/will android on the HD2, neither is better than the other, for us older folk we will probably fiddle with android (as i am doing) then slowly go back to WM because that does everything, i dont want millions of apps, i want apps that work and ill happily pay for them.

New users to smartphones will probably find android easier to use, they do not know any better and will likely find WM too complicated.

I guess what im trying to say is, a properly setup WM device is as good as an android device, the experience of the user will decide if they want an easy phone that works or a complicated one that works

To all you WM haters, i call BS, a well setup device works fine and i suspect many have just jumped on to the anti MS wagon.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MartyLK:
What I find odd is that I've gone to the cellphone stores and tried out several dedicated Android handsets and all except the HTC Imagio and new Droid X are less smooth and refined feeling than these builds we use here at xda.

If it holds like it currently is, when a flashable ROM appears, if it ever will or can because of NAND, I would expect to see the Android ROMs as being far advanced over the factory installed OEM versions.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dazza9075:
Quite possibly, as i said, i expect this thing to fly once its NAND i dont know what level of crap is installed with OEM software but if googles got anything to do with it id think its up to its eyes in junk. The HD2 is by far the best piece of kit ive had in years, knocks the socks of anything else, even if the screen is that wee fraction too big (yes i said it! lol)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ccmks:
It still doesn't work for me....
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Showtime7:
seems more like a work around... i like going to landscape mode to type sometimes, it makes it soooo much easier and more accurate. but if it solves the issue with the screen i guess i can deal with not having auto rotation.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MartyLK:
I've used almost all of these builds and have tried turning off screen rotation to solve the screen freeze and it has never helped. However, removing setCPU has always helped. I rarely ever see any screen freezing without setCPU installed. But disabling screen rotation makes no difference in the slightest.

My experience:

WM ROM: Miri 6.5.x 17.7

RADIO 2.50.12.X

EU TMO-DE HD2, 8gb A-Data Class 6 card.

Tried several Android builds. Calls work fine on all of them. Last one i tried was mattc 1.5 with custom added untervolt kernel.

Things that made me go back to WM for now:

- Touch screen becomes unresponsive too often for my taste

- Battery life, even with tasks killed and setcpu profiles sometimes the battery level would drop considerably within minutes, sometimes it would last a while.

- Charging: I felt like charging on Android takes much longer than on WM.

- Browser: Pinch to zoom etc quite laggy still.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] poeticwun:
I'm running the latest Energy GTX and i actually keep a couple different/all new builds of android on my SD & run whichever when i feel like getting to know a lil more.

So far they're all pretty stable & I usually keep the version of android with the rounded phone bar (i don't know the difference in names: the 3x3 block-app list retriever version, the straight call bar version, the rounded call bar version & the iphone icon dock bar version....idk) as my primary OS.

I like each build in it's own right but the rounded call bar version works best for me.

the battery drops pretty quick in some cases & sometime it'll last all day.

like firaX, i get bothered by the screen becoming a lil unresponsive at times however as far as charging goes, i think in android it always takes about an hour to charge no matter how much battery life i have as if it's not getting a true charge.

just a few hours ago when i was running android it was actually reading less than the true battery level...?

however as frustrated as get sometimes with these builds i just LOVE listening to my friends brag about how all their different androids are so great and better than WM just so i can reply "yes, how inferior my phone is... it ony runs 2 OS!!"

And tbh i never really dug andoid all that much but i having the option is effin sweet!

i think i'll always be a WM head.

Singapore HD2 running Chucky's droid rom and Shubcraft 1.4c.

Smooth, fast, stable, no really big issues.

The biggest issue for me are:

While HSDPA is working now, it's hit and miss and will drop signal intermittently. Toushcreen freeze has been nearly stamped out with freezes every once in a while; Not often. For my personal use style, once a more reliable hsdpa signal can be worked out, I will consider it a complete build.

- the phone app can freeze after a call for up to 30 seconds. Not a big deal for me since I rarely make or receive voice calls, but a bug nonetheless.

You developers here have done a brilliant brilliant job so far though.

- Battery life to begin with (3-4 weeks ago) was terrible but it's very good now. With NexusLeo 1.1 I get between 1% and 2% loss an hour in standby and around 16-18 hours of what I would call standard use before hitting the 10% warning. This is no worse than I got on WM.

- Never had robot calls, even in the first week or two on early builds.

- MMS is still very hit and miss. Sometimes it sends, sometimes it doesn't. And the same with receiving. I have found this on all the builds I have tried it on.
