[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
I never said I used winmo full-time. A few months ago i liked winmo more, but since i've begun using android more often, now I love both OS's equally. That's the beauty of the hd2. Why do all of you make it one versus the other. If you like android, you claim winmo sucks. I have used winmo for 7 years and android on & off for a couple years, mostly as ports on winmo phones, though. I have an excellent understanding of them both... and love them both.

As long as you have the time to set up winmo, it runs flawlessly on the hd2 and most definitely is more customizable than android. Android is definitely very customizable as well, but not everything is as easily skinned or changed as winmo.

As for functionality, android has definitely caught up quickly... still lacks in a few areas but is superior in others. And android is still being developed, so I have no doubts that it will surpass winmo. My next phone will be an android phone as unfortunately, winmo is no longer being actively developed or supported.

There is no reason to talk trash about winmo just because you like android better and can't get winmo to work the way you want. For some people, it functions exactly how they want. And just because I love and use winmo, doesn't mean I don't also love and use android as well, because, like I said, it functions better than winmo in some areas, like web browsing and reading xda forums, and the hd2 is perfect for me because I use both OS's.

I was just commenting because I would think that someone who hates winmo so much would go for a native android phone like the galaxy which will always be able to run android better than the hackery version of android that the hd2 will always run.... not saying of doesn't run great and as well as I need it to, but when the galaxy or similar 1ghz native android phone is rooted and properly modified, it runs android a lot smoother. Plus the galaxy has a much better gpu, which will make a bigger difference in the future when more games & apps take advantage of it, and has a nicer screen with MANY more colors ( although the screen is slightly smaller).

I'm sorry to upset you all so much by defending winmo in an android subforum... I didn't realize I had to like one and hate the other. I thought the beauty of the hd2 was that you can have both. I just don't know why someone would want to take away the hd2s ability to run 2 OS's to make it just another android phone.... it's going to be the last great winmo phone out there.

I am looking forward to Magldr being released so I can boot directly into android without having to boot winmo... and I'm hoping there will be a way to fit both winmo and android on nand, which is why I watch this thread in the first place.

I always try to be honest and fair when judging and comparing different operating systems. I have a lot of experience with both OS's... have owned 8 different winmo devices, 3 of which I ran android ports on (hd2, touchpro, and Kaiser), and I had a nexus one until recently, and between my brother and a few friends, I've extensively used many android devices, rooted and unrooted, and tried many different hacks and roms on them and my winmo devices.

Sorry for the rant... it's late and dealt with a lot of crap today.
