[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jigners:
there is no specific limitation to post only the working combination, anyone can post

those that dont, I believe people tend to post those that works best for them

there sort of like "fall back Radio ROM combo" as I believe a huge majority

of us here tests new builds every so often, but as I stated, we tend to have

a "fall back combo"

this thread is really about which Radio works best for which Country and Network

(one which has the least or no SOD at all) I really didn't thought of adding type/class

of SD as there are plenty of people who use even 2gb of sd card at various classes.

I personally believe Android builds of late are stable enough to be run from most

if not all cards out there so long as they are properly functioning.:)

if still many would clamour for which Card is the best, then perhaps someone else

would take the initiative to start a proper thread, with a clear target of audience

and purpose/aim.:)

I'll poll the data gathered so far tomorrow and update first post, am tired, just got home

from an afternoon shift and doubling back tomorrow.

This is a great idea for a thread and one that came to mind whilst i have been travelling in france the past week.

I have one of the energy august builds and radio 2.12.50 and i am never happy with the battery life in the uk. I have the device only on GPRS for most of the day and still i feel i need to charge the device at somepoint during the day.

However when i went to Lille last week i was amazed and how little battery drain i had!

Is there a difference between europe and uk networks? Do more base stations make an impact on battery life? (i should thinkso!)

This thread is great but the data being collected is not getting to the point. We need to have a solid metric for measure battery performance per day, per radio rom, per country. Is there an app that can do this for us?

will a custom ROM have android instead of WM6.5 ?? i mean it will direct boot to android or we still have to open android from WM6.5 ??
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bbezja1:
at the moment you run android as an application in windows mobile.

other way is to flash andoid to nand like we now flash our windows mobile roms.

as far as i know there is not enough room to flash both OSes to nand. <- pls correct me if im wrong
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] proggams:
oh ok when it will be 100% functional with everything working it could be flashed to nand without the WM ?

why did u buy a winmo phone when u want android?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] PhoneConnect247:
...the world as we know it...will come to an end... lol well what's most likely to happen is people wanting to get windows phone 7 on the phone.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] souljaboy:
loooooool i saw the title and was about to write the exact same thing ...

what would happen ..... it will run 100% no more no less , alltho i doubt that will ever happen cuz it occasionally has bad days on nexus too , like all the OS-es
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hebbe:
i think thats wrong. android is NOT an app running in windows mobile. this would mean android is runnning as some kind of emulation. as far as i know, winmo is still needed in order to initialize the hardware. by starting haret.exe, the wince-kernel is shut down and a linux bootloader is started.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nir36:
hopefully we'll be able to flash an android rom to nand and have a device which can hold either OS equally. I personally like the fact that the HD2 can become versatile. I agree - that if someone wants to run android only, he should buy an Android device. I wanted to have a taste of android with the ability to run WM as i have for the past 4 years.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hebbe:
but if someone wants to run android on such a beautiful piece of hardware like our hd2:D? have you ever seen a good looking android device (i mean the physical device itself, not the ui)? :):)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
I bought the device with the intent on running android. I am not help bent on completely removing it

There hasnt been a device until the evo 4g that had the same screen size. And since i dont hop carriers I cant use the evo.

The my touch 3g slide screen is too small

The my touch screen is too small

The samsung galaxy screen is too small

The g1 screen is too small.

The samsung behold 2 sucked !

THe cliq sucked

The nexus 1 screen is too small

So people do have reasons to have the hd2.

Plus a lot of people I have met with the hd2 didnt realize what they were buying. Most people hate the phone. They then see mine with android and fall in love.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Spl4tt:
screen problem will get fix'd with the desire hd ^.^

but running android on the hd2 like it is native would be just awsome.. thats true for sure :))

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] corlygunnz:
Can some one answer this question. What windows mobile 6.5 do, that android can't do? This is my first WM phone and I tho it was alright. I would of got the Evo but I can't switch carriers until the end of the year. Since now we got android, I'm staying with t-mo. I pay full price for this phone ($560.00 in NYC) I first regretted and since android I don't. Anyways I found that android do much more for me than WM. So if I'm wrong please some one tell me. Ps: excuse my english.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] qipengart:
For me, I would consider the NAND flash for Android ROM the 100% fully functional since that is of primary importance to me here.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Chillander:
I bought my HD2 even though I knew it had WM. And at the time I didn't want Android at all, just my WM, but with some configurations & such.

But now that I have Android running on it instead, I never want to go back.

And just like someone else said, there ain't an Android phone around that have the same hardware specs as the HD2. Except the EVO, but I've had my phone a long time before they released the EVO. And from what I know it's only available in the US. Maybe I could import one and configure it to run on Swedish networks, but wth..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Hatefly:
The wife and I got this phone and she didn't realize it was Windows Mobile. This was my first experience with Sense UI and thought it was awesome.

I loved the phone for what it could do and actually "Used" it to it's potential. She "HATES" it. Then again, I don't blame her. Sense fails hard when it comes to texting and load lag :mad:

She can't wait till I can flash Android to her phone. Me, i'll stick with my options.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kabuk1:
I don't think people who HATE WinMo buy this phone with the sole intent of putting another OS on it. I think most people bought it for the screen & the media capabilities. For me, I saw a lot of potential in the hardware specs and bought mine cause it's the last real WM phone(I'm sappy like that) and because it's a GSM phone that I can unlock & use for years to come. It was like buying a barebones PC that I could run whatever I want on & have multi-boot systems.

I decided to run Android on it initially out of sheer curiosity, and so I can learn the next OS I'm gonna be using. When WM dies out(it's GOING to happen, so we may as well face it), Android will be what I will move on to partly because its Linux & open source, and partly because there's no way in pus-spewing, blood-gutted hell that I would ever use an iPhone or Blackberry(WP7 has NEVER been an option). I must say, Android runs VERY well on this phone even in its current stage of development, I can't wait to see how awesome it'll be as a fully flashable rom. I'm already almost to the point of not even missing WM anymore. I've been running it for a week now & I'm getting to know how everything works & I love it. Very versatile & powerful, and quite stable. I don't think I quite realized just how many lockups and crashes I was really having with WM until I started using Android as my main OS. The first time I used Android I HATED it because I had a bad build & an underpowered phone(One of the first leaked Froyo builds on a Sprint Hero) and it ran like crap. But with the combo I've got now, it's simply awesome. Everything is so integrated & all the programs mesh together so beautifully. It really does 'just work', and it's hackable & customizable at the same time. Best of both worlds. If & when a NAND version of Android for the HD2 comes out, you can count me in.

Don't get me wrong, I will ALWAYS love WinMo. I think it's the best mobile OS there ever was, and it's incredibly sad that it's dying. It would still be going strong if Microsoft had just marketed it better & hadn't copped out with WP7. But I'm not gonna stay with a stagnant platform that nobody develops for anymore(I'd have stayed with Palm OS otherwise), and I was honestly starting to get bored with it. I had pushed WM to it's limits & did everything I could possibly do with it, and it's just time to move on. I believe Android is the wave of the future, and will eventually overtake the iPhone in popularity.

Plus I love robots, so anything named 'Android' is automatically cool in my book :cool:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] qipengart:
I agree with you wholeheartedly. Friendly robots are a plus in my book.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] younus_malik:
first of all 6.5 is dated now... even MS is not interested in it anymore...

secondly lot many applications are designed much better in android. take gmail app for instance... it rocks and its awesome emailing experience on HD2... therefore i will definitely want to switch to android, if i cant get windows 7.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xpoloxp:
[Q] What will happen when android is 100% functional with htc hd2 ??

why people keep asking this kind of questions... its incredible

also the NAND boot android when we could see windows phone 7 and android in the only phone that i believe its capable of do it so why nand and destroy this even if we dont get windows phone 7 its allways better to have 2 os in the same device and better yet they are totally working separate
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] raffozz:
As many people says in this thread, wm was a really good mobile os, and i loved it!

But android 2.2 is now the best choise i can do!

I try it for the first time and i like it all...

I don't like iphone and blackberry too.. wm7 is unknow until now, i think that android will be the best iphone competitor ever.

I love this phone and i much love it with android :)))

It will be no choise: if i can install android in nand, i'll say thanks and goodbye to wm! :)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nanas9:
I don't know if this has been posted already, but I was struggling trying to find solutions so I thought I would post what worked for me.

After updating to froyo rooted deodexed stock rom, my wifi tether became very unstable. It would say it was connected, but my computer would lose internet access and would only reconnect after I stopped and restarted wireless tether.

The day it started to behave again I did the following:

- Turned "Find My Location" off in Shopsavvy

(this did not make a noticeable difference, but I left it like that anyway, just in case)

- Upgraded wireless tether to 2.0.5-pre8

- Installed Wifinder to make sure I was using a clear channel in wireless tether

(The default channel I was on was clear from what I could tell, but I went ahead and changed it to 1 in the wireless tether settings anyway)

- On my computer, I right clicked on the wireless tether connection, selected properties, connection, and put a checkbox in "connect even if the network is not broadcasting its name (SSID)", then ok.

(I believe I read some people saying that the phone was stopping broadcasting the SSID when the internet was dropping, which is why I did this)

After those changes, I was able to stay connected for hours versus minutes, but after restarting the phone I have been able to stay connected until I disconnect.

The only time it has disconnected without me physically turning off wifi tether since then was a couple of times trying to test my upload speed, but not every time. I think there must be something they are doing to shut down the connection when large or aggressive uploads are detected or something.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonrequiem:
Can anyone confirm this works? I'm having major issues with all data connection dropping after a few minutes of being online. What I've noticed is that the 3G indicator in the notification bar will actually disappear momentarily, then reappear, but once it reappears...I'm not able to connect further until I restart the tether app.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lehalter:
I would change your version of wireless tether first. Which one are you using? I am using 7 now, but I believe 8 was best for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonrequiem:
Using "Wireless Tether for Root Users 2.0.5-pre11" now...haven't tried it with this version however I was using pre9 and that version was causing the 3G problems that I described in my last post.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristopherBurg:
I had this same issue. When I went into the wireless tether application and changed it to use channel one everything started working perfectly.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonrequiem:
I'll try that and report my results...really annoying problem, ya know?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topdawgn8:
I think the "aggressive download" portion is accurate. I can stay connected for hours with a little web browsing going on; however, start up a torrent or connect to my PS3 and it disconnects in 5-10 minutes. I'll try the SSID broadcast later tonight though and test it under heavy load.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonrequiem:
My issue isn't "aggressive downloads" - a PS3 connection doesn't require a lot of bandwidth, just a low latency connection - which is probably the reason you are disconnected. I use my wireless tether for playing online games from my computer. When it is actually working and playing well, its running 8-12 kbit/sec, which is very low bandwidth. It's only when the 3G indicator disappears that my whole connection is lost and I have to restart my game and restart Wireless Tether as well. FWIW my latency while playing is roughly 400-500ms - high, but the game tolerates it.
