I would like to have Android on my HD7 simply because after some months WP7 is becoming boring.

Before HD7 I had an Xperia running WM 6.5 and Sense, lots or roms on that phone too, I was really happy and I dind't need Android at all.

But now I just got an Xperia X8 for work and I see that it's really fun; I am currently playing with some 2.3 roms and I really enjoy them. I play a lot more with that little phone than with HD7.

So since I don't want to pay another 5xx EUR for a good Android phone, the simpliest way would be putting it into my HD7.

I see no frustration in that, just the need to play with my phone a little bit like I did with WM6.5.

Regards

[HD7 General] mintzax:
Hello! I have an HD7 and as... almost everyone, i want to flash Android! Is this possible to happen in the next days?? I'm asking because somebody asked me to exchange it with htc hd2 & some...€!! So I have to answer!! Thank you..
[HD7 General] kazbu:
I like WP7 and it OK for me. Except that I`m missing Opera browser and Skype.

But I want Android just because I want to play with it :)

And I don`t want to buy HD2 or any other Android device HD7 is the phone I want.

So if anyone knows something about any developers working on Android for HD7 please share that info.

I am a owner of a HD7 paper weight

2 months ago I got a free HD7 through upgrade from TMobile and

I too am waiting for a Android NAND ROM to be developed and released for the HD7 here on XDA and until then I am a owner of a HD7 paper weight and continue using my HD2 with Android NAND.

Now don't get me wrong I am a firm believer in Microsoft PC products and OS but Microsoft's "smart phone" OS leaves allot to desire as the HD7 still does not have the ability to play Adobe Flash media due to the WinMo7.

If Microsoft were to develop a WinMo OS compatible with Adobe Flash media and expanded the Market Apps compared to Android Market apps then I would jump back to WinMo :)
[HD7 General] Armarn:
Any updates? Do we still waiting Android for HD7? Or not?

A few months ago, I melted with their HD2 now very jelly on it, buy again HD2 not good idea, so I am stuck on the HD7 :(

So I am waiting with great impatience when finally Android ported to HD7 if not then...
[HD7 General] Juan Bond:
Hi all, I mean please be positive, I am interested to have in my HTC HD7 android.Se should not be so bad because they discovered in this forum how to increase to 32 gb the HD7. In some ways you can explore the factory sd. Only patience, had a hd2 and android is the best but I think it's a phone that should be replaced by a more modern and that must be hd7.

It would be nice to kick his ass Windows phone 7 and have our HD7 with android! Anyone who be trying, just say you idol of many.

Graxx
[HD7 General] Perlnx:
^

But they're many Intelligent if they had dual boot WP7 and Android.

Because there have many options to use, Instead of stick just a single one.
[HD7 General] shooger:
I don't know what the debate is here exactly...

Here is my situation. I have an hd2 leo running android. It is amazing, and is the cheapest most powerful phone I've ever owned. However, it is a bit old. I don't like the hard keys. I think they are clunky and awkward. I also want a bit more ram.

There is NO, i repeat, NO alternative to the htc leo on tmobile with android WITHOUT losing:

a.) 3g/4g capabilities (unlocked at&t phones) Screw tmobile's edge...

b.) 4.3 in. mega screen (I can never go back.)

So yeah, I want android on this beautiful hd7 because it is an upgrade to what is currently, imho, the best android tmobile phone. I'm sure others here agree. I would LOVE to use the DHD, but there's no way I'm losing 3g speed for it.

Anyways, if I could port Magldr to the hd7 I would. But I can't so I won't, and so I will instead plead those who can to give it a go. :cool:
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
i am sorry guys now only i got the point why ppl want to load android on HD7, as DHD do not support 3G in US...
[HD7 General] the1gladiator:
where do you get this crap from?

1) they will sue you for tearing up your own device????? really??? does that sound smart?

i won't even address the rest of that crap on that basis alone
[HD7 General] cmlucht:
as the internal goes what is the difference between the hd2 and hd7?

what would happen if you tried to flash magldr to the hd7?
[HD7 General] rhn:
16M color screen in the hd7 vs 65k in the hd2, physical camera button in the hd7& capacitive buttons vs all physical buttons in the hd2. I guess you need hspl to flash magldr to the hd7, not so sure. But since the hd7 has a kind-of removable sdcard, i can see android port coming to it, just give it some time..
[HD7 General] exsecrare:
I wonder if any devs are even interested in working on porting android to the HD7...

If so, I'd gladly donate a bit of money (as much as I can afford anyway since I'm currently in the middle of a big move) as I'm sure others would too, to help push along the development.
[HD7 General] tfn:
HI Guys

I am a flash Junkie on my Htc Hero and just fell in love with android after being long time with Nokia.

I jumped to Htc HD 7 as I couldnt get hold of the Desire HD and loved the WP7 experience although the apps and stuff was missing and yeah I did wish I could have android on it as well.

But I recently flashed my HD7 to the nodo update ( unofficially of course) and Boy I love it now. Micorosoft seems to have ironed out almost most of the niggles we had on the Wp7 and I just love it.

I can just imagine what the MANGO update will bring and will definitely go with a NOKIA MICROSOFT phone next year.

All I want to say is Android is goody but I feel now WP7 are gonna be the Best reliable OS with their brilliant Email / Xbox / Office /Zune integration that you don't need it to be changed in any way as it comes out lovely out of the box

Flashing new Roms on Android is fun but at the same time its kinda gets into you cause something or the other don't work with the ports and you wanna flash all the time.

So yeah like me

I have an android phone (htc hero running GIngerbread)for my android cravings

A Ipod Touch to play with apple's apps ( I dont like iphone anyway)

And now a WP7 which I am beginning to like
[HD7 General] moises1989:
Hi guys im new here i just got HTC HD7, im been reading all your reply saying that if anyone wants a android just buy an android, why wasting more money if they can make a android por for HD7? another Q. what is NODo?
[HD7 General] tfn:
NODO is the name of the software update from Microsoft for your phone which will bring copy and paste and another stuff.

there will be a bigger update later this year called MANGO which will be massive
[HD7 General] Midnight7oker:
I'd also be willing to donate for the cause. Has anybody heard whether or not there's a developer willing to take on this project? Any rumors?
[HD7 General] Juan Bond:
I also am willing to donate.

Now You Can You Can unlock WP7 and 8GB memory upgrade of htc hd7, Because not android...
[HD7 General] RealAct:
Yes, it would be great to have the option to install Android on this phone, so another vote, would be willing to donate for such project as well.
[HD7 General] R3D X:
If you have been reading the replies you would have read that there is NOT MANY ANDROID PHONES FOR TMOBILE!!!!

and i am willing to donate aswell to whoever ports magldr
[HD7 General] moises1989:
oooh oka, i have another question: is there a page to download themes and custom ringtones?
[HD7 General] ochuat:
i just came to realise that HD7 is cheaper than HD2 now

WP7 is such a big failure project
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
how cheap is cheap and where in KL i can buy the HD7???
[HD7 General] iliriifr:
NONO if i want to take offert with bouygues telecom in france i need to pay 250 euro for HD 7 and if i take HD 2 i need to pay 120 euro
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
Bro i checked online its RM2000/- and in singapore i can get SGD860/- its not cheap...

Let me know please...
[HD7 General] dre2k14:
Wow nobody cares how much it cost we want to know if anybody out there is trying to dual boot the Hd7 and Android because that would be awesome and no I'm not buying an Hd2 so dont recommend it. Hd2 is cool and all with what it can do but developers or hackers or wtf ever they are need to pull there heads out of there asses already and get to work on the damn wp7 platform all of us that want it will donate so WTF!!
[HD7 General] spinaldex:
The HD7 would make a great Android phone as it has a few enhancements over the HD2. Many of us purchased the WP7 phone hoping that it had something new to offer, and for the first few months it truly did. The GUI is absolutely awesome in it's simplicity, the OS responds lightning fast which is something my Android phones have never been able to do, the camera is of fairly good quality, etc. However, I've had it for almost 5 months now and at this point in time, I miss many of my Android features ...

I miss having a free navigation app .. I have to pay Tmobile $10 per month for one at the moment.

I miss having copy/paste.

I miss being able to run the same games and applications as my friends which allowed me to interact with them.

I miss having the ability to make a quick update to my status that would post on Facebook and Twitter at the same time.

I miss having a Wifi AP built in to the phone.

Having an Android rom would be a great upgrade until these features come in Mango. At which point, I might just come back to WP7.
[HD7 General] jockeres:
I don't miss Android or WM 6.5 Because with WP7 i got stability, i don't need to flash over and over to get a good ROM. You don't miss something unless you need it. these are coming any time soon. i love my HD7!!!
[HD7 General] spinaldex:
Speaking of "flash" ... I'm missing the Android's support for it. I can't look at 50% of websites these days and if I can, I'm missing most of the important content. Flash is never coming to the WP7 phones. Getting the industry to support HTML5 is great, but will take considerably longer than the life of this phone.
[HD7 General] scrminsqrl:
I'm not to sure why you'd pay $10 for telenav but in the marketplace theres an app called "A-to-B."

Yes it is turn by turn nav.

Not sure how much it is anymore, either way its better than paying $10 a month for crap...

I cant say much for the other stuff yet.
[HD7 General] spinaldex:
A-to-B is a great start but it is missing a lot of features I get in TeleNav like Voice Directions, Automatic Recalculations of routes, searching for businesses, and a few minor cosmetic fixes (doesn't show a nice 45 degree perspective with the arrow facing your direction, maps are blurry and sometimes show too much so the arrow blends in, etc). Although Telenav isn't as great as say Google or Bing Nav, it is still vastly better than that app.

Thankfully we'll get copy/paste soon over the air. Games with friends ... not too worried about although I miss a few. If we're lucky we'll get some online games soon so we can interact with other people at least.

WiFi AP ... this is a major one for me. The inability to tether on a 4G connection is ridiculous. Since we've already seen unlocked phones, I really wish someone could make a Wireless Access Point app for the phone.
[HD7 General] DavieGee:
?

Does anyone know if they're are any developers working on this at all ? I've been following this thread for weeks and just wondered, i know DFT & Cortulla are busy porting android to older WindowsPhones at the moment & getting NoDo working on the HD2 too.
[HD7 General] spinaldex:
It seems to me that there are plenty of developers, but not enough interest in the port to the HD7. The question is .. would someone consider it for a "donation"? I would gladly "donate" money to it, and if we could find a few dozen other people, it might make it less painful for the individual to take a month to take on this project. There's no reason I wouldn't consider donating $50 or more to the cause, because it truly would be an excellent option for HD7 owners!
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
if you have the pre nodo you can force the nodo right now, i did it yesterday... there is thread on WP7 section...

i had to try several times but in he end i got it...
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
I miss flesh too but I guess I have to wait till mango comes out officially... I saw today there is a force update for mango right now but no IE9 with it... I just forced my NODO on my HD7... maybe next week I will force the mango as well so I will have the multitasking at least...

There's no mango update for the HD7 as of now, it was just an april fool's prank:P
[HD7 General] ashykat:
Maybe someday the HD7 will have Android running on it. The iPhone 2G and 3G both have it running, and neither of those have an sd card to run off of so I know it's possible. I would never buy a device thinking that someday it'll also run Android though. I love WP7 for a lot of reasons, and that's why I bought a WP7 phone. I got it fully knowing that it's OS is WP7, and that there may never be the possibility of running anything else on it. That being said, I'd love to duel boot at some point in order to take advantage of some of Android's features, but I'm not betting on it ever happening. Even if it does, it may not run well. I hope it happens, but I'm not counting on it. If it does happen though, you can be sure I'll be there duel booting, just for my geek cred. :cool:
[HD7 General] PatelDhrumil:
Plz Create Android For HD7

Mods please create android for hd7.Many people want to see android in hd7

.They are also ready to pay or donate for it
[HD7 General] PatelDhrumil:
When are u guys making android for hd7..?
[HD7 General] cmlucht:
in my own opinion i think it is already being worked on but undercover, i remember when i was waiting for magldr for my hd7 and all the devs where being pestered all the time non stop so i think if they are working on it they will announce it when it is complete.
[HD7 General] Arjun Haritsa:
please

guys please develop an android rom to this garbage pls :( :mad: :(
[HD7 General] Nazeroth:
I just been trought the 32 pages of posts here; I can conclude:

a) 45% of the posts are people asking for an android port for the hd7

b) 50% of the posts are replies from twats asking why? and pestering the other 45% to get a hd2 or Hd or whatever...

c) 5% of the posts are mixed claims about wanting to donate or secret projects and a few "we are working on it guys"...

So 32 pages of useless posts specially "b" posts...

This site used to be an innovative site to hack standard phones and make them become something else... this is why it is called XDA-DEVELOPERS!! the XDA was one of the first HTC devices...

So please if your only apport to a forum is: "I am an idiot and want my phone to remain the same" do not brother posting, get an IPHONE, get a life... if you have something to say and it is useful then post!

Now back to waiting until someone actually writes something about porting android in the HD7... in the mean time I am sure I will have fun watching the replies to this post and all the flame wars i just started.

I apologize to the mods for doing it, but since the blueangel days, with more and more people signing in, and the right to free speech over the internet... the quality of the forums is going down with B type posts...

There is a place in the internet to publish useless opinions and information and it is called facebook... please leave tech forums to post tech questions and tech answers that actually HELP others.

I have been HTC owner since the blueangel days and always feel like i am beta testing unstable devices to get to do a little more with them than most people, i like the chill of waiting to know if i bricked my phone or if it will work, to see if i can go back to factory settings... thus the reason i dont go pestering the forums giving non answers to valid questions... been member here for more than 5 years and with a low post count simply out of respect... I help when i can help, that is called netiquette...

vent off... peace, the colonel
[HD7 General] spinaldex:

[HD7 General] jiangkarl:
That's really great sharing spirit!
[HD7 General] phillipxenxciel:
Well the WM7 looked soooo promising that we went ahead and bought it, then we find out that the OS is half baked, and the market place is filled with even more ****ty apps then any other other app store. you can't blame people for wanting android in their HD7, after all this is XDA Dev, not wm7fanboyz.com
[HD7 General] Cal-El:
Lets keep this thread going about HD7 and android since this is a development forum and quit posting non relevant rips on other members. If you don't like it, keep it to yourself.
[HD7 General] a dead man:
I see a lot of responses on this thread, that if you want an android phone, buy a desire or something along those lines. what most of these peeps don't realise, it's the combo of the OS and the hardware thats appealing, for me, it's the screen real estate, I got big hands and big fingers, the HD2 and HD7 is perfect in that sense, the desire and most of the other android phones with their 3.2' screens are way to small for me to use properly (and don't point me toward those galaxy tabs or similar, any idea how ridiculous one looks with that stuck to the side of your head?) so yes, it is about having choice, currently there are none if you want a big(ger) screen - your stuck with WM 6.5 or 7 on these particular machines -and thats where XDA developers come in, yay pro choice, android for HD7? - bring it on! :)
[HD7 General] Luisraul924:
Well, there are two sides to this "Android on HD7" coin. You have the hackers perspective and the "regular" consumer perspective. If you're a consumer, and visit these forums (don't see why... well kinda I guess) then yes signing a two year contract for a device that you don't want to use seems really idiotic (well it is) but if your a hacker, then it makes perfect sense that you might want Android on the HD7. the guy using the "I got it but found out it was half baked" excuse is just full of sh!t you have a trial period on the device T-Mobile's is two weeks, that should be more than enough time to be sure and figure out if you wanna keep it or not. Just my 2cents I guess. I do love WP7 as a smartphone, but like Android for tinkering around and showing friends what I can do to their phones lol things they never would've guessed because they don't care about their phones, they just want a phone that fits in their pocket and works so they're pretty much stupefied by the barrage of salesmen pushing Android at their local carrier store. When i show them my HD7 they end up liking it more than Android but they're comfortable with Android so THEY DON'T CARE. Neither do I but just sayin'.
[HD7 General] gcmobile:

[HD7 General] dusank:

[HD7 General] s7yler:
Two weeks ago I actually had both - a HTC Desire HD and HTC HD7, I choose to sell the Desire HD because I could get a good secondhand price for it, and because I actually found it a bit laggy and boring (I have had a lot of other Android devices before - so nothing new). The HD7 in Germany is currently very cheap, about half price (before 599 eu, now only 280 eu) and I actually like the smooth and interactive UI of WP7.

I am happy with WP7, still it could be fun if dualboot (WP7+Android) would be possible in a near future. I hope it will come...... I will support it fore sure.
[HD7 General] samson_420:
Oh sweet Jesus, it's glorious:)
