in reply

I too watching this thread since it had opened! The only thing we should have to be is in patience :)

We all know that developing a ROM is not a small job! & Developers almost spend their whole day working for it leaving their food even!!

And one thing preferably we should have to know is, we dint come to HD7 for Android! We purchased it for WP7!

As this thread felt us hoping android for our device we came in deep breath about android to this. Someone had shown videos spotted android on hd7 & even other photos as evidence too! hopes one fine day we'll get android surely :)

So, lets give developers their own time to arrive a very good ROM ever :)

Lets be in patience,supporting the developers :)

time...

Brothers...

We was waiting long time for Android rom. All we know is that only Pepsi working on Android...

HTC HD7 is brick like i have in my home wall. I even use arch linux as my home PC operating system... Windows is shi•. But, i suggest that we sell all ours HTC s and buy hd2 s. I think Android for HTC will never come out...

Or wanna to wait more to see how HTC hd7 shi• is? David Gee knows a lot, maybe he can make Android? :D:D
[HD7 General] DavieGee:
I think the HD7 Is A Brilliant Phone. And I Think Windows Phone 7 Is An Amazing Operating System (And I've Used Iphones, Android Devices, Palm Devices, WinMo6.5 Devices, Symbian).

Pepsi AND TheDarkForcesTeam are working on android ports, these are being done via the RSPL's that have been created by Cortulla, These guys were the ones who did the HD2 (And that took a year.)

I Wouldn't build android for this phone because quite simply its a terribly difficult thing to do, I personally, am going to wait instead of all the people on here moaning how they want it faster, well if you want it faster you attempt to do it yourself, but don't get upset when you've got a rather expensive paperweight.

I'm not gonna risk my HD7, which i love.
[HD7 General] dacook2:
Thank you for your great input davieegee i respect you because you always say the correct things, you are the only one i look forward reading.

The whole thread is about people whining, *****ing and moaning and nobody wants to wait.

As for me i am used to wait and i am beginning to like the windows phone 7 OS, it's not as good as android or iOS but i sure love the battery life and i see a lot of applications/games coming up soon for this phone as for the moment i play angry birds that currently came out.

I wish and hope that the development takes it slowly and makes a perfect android rom for hd7 that will work good and fast as it is working today for the hd2.

And nobody wants to brick their phone of course so it's better to wait a bit longer.

And for those people who want to sell the phone please don't reply about it because it makes other people who own the hd7 very miserable and it makes the developers very angry because they are doing it for free remember? and you ***** at them but it was your own fault that you bought a Windows Phone 7 and not an Android one well isn't it your own fault ? and the developers just want to help you out they didn't get any percentage for the phone you bought from microsoft or htc on t-mobile, they can also get caught and go to jail from microsoft or htc for making such hacks it's very illegal no matter what you think.

I will respect Pepsi and other developers if they make it or they don't they will still be a legend because they did try.

I am not saying the windows phone 7 is a mistake i am just saying you people that bought a windows phone and want instead the android OS on it did the mistake.

The HD7 is a great phone and it's a lot better than the HD2 in a lot of ways even though it has a lot of similarity.

The WP7 is not so great but it's new and its working hard to be as good as the IOS and the legendary Android.

Also i would be really surprised if an android rom will come out as soon as in two months and i will still wait till i am sure it can be flashed without problems.

Have a nice day all and stop being childish or *****y and be patient for bit longer.

These were just my two cents for this topic.
[HD7 General] XPLANE9:
The main problem is that people assume the HD7 is a clone of the HD2 and that porting Android would be simple given the base that was created by Cotulla's work on the HD2. Unfortunately, Windows Phone 7 is a completely new operating system with a fully reworked base compared to Windows Mobile. As a result, developers will essentially be starting from scratch, again. I wouldn't expect a truly stable release until late 2011, about the same length of time it took the HD2 (a little less than a year).
[HD7 General] atrako1973:
people if you like android sell your hd7 and get an htc android phone, why would want porting a half ass working rom to the hd 7 , i know what im talking about i have an hd2, and running android for a year now, its not perfect, its not meant to be perfect ,it will never be a native android phone, sometimes its laggy, sometimes you want to throw it at the wall, but its really fun flashing all the roms, curently runing coredroid 1.6 on hd2

so get it guys move on or get moved on:p:D

i am also agree , there must be some support for hd7 to run android because there are lot of regions where android device are not as common.

so plz do some thing
[HD7 General] Epsylon:
Here in Hungary you can buy a phone called: CECT H7000. I think that's Pepsi's HD7. Same build as my HD7, same sizes, same parts on the housing, perfect copy, but only 400Mhz cpu, and Android.
[HD7 General] DavieGee:
Its not the same as pepsi's hd7 as pepsi's hd7 is real.

HTC SENSE CANNOT RUN ON AN 400 MHZ CPU. END OF. Let alone that smoothly.

READ BEFORE YOU POST.

Ive already explained a million times why pepsi's build is for a legitamate hd7, the point that its sense 2.1 and android 2.3.3. And how that no company can use HTC's software without being sued. So why don't you read the forum next time before you post and waste everyones time.

There you go, theres a CECT H7000, which has a different button layout if you had looked, and also runs stock android.. Thank you for doing your research before you posted. really appreciated. It has a menu button instead of search. And you can check that over with the videos that Pepsi has released if you want..

While I'm moaning I want to add in another bit for skeptics like yourself. Where on that device is there either the T-mobile HD7 branding or the HTC HD7 branding, Theres none and before you say why T-mobile, because china uses the same GSM bands for one of its networks like T-mobile US. Theres no branding on these phones and the button layouts are wrong like ive previously said before, if you have a theory then please do your research before you just post, the fact of the matter is that this Android port is very real. And I wish you guys would just have the patience to wait. And stop trying to hinder it either.
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
david sorry but it looks like that OEM's will run android and WP7 on there top end devices..... samsung and fujitsu is already doing it... so ppl can have android and WP7 on the same (almost same devices)...
[HD7 General] DavieGee:
This is very true, OEM's are planning to release dual OS mobiles as the power of mobiles grows and grows.

But what exactly does that have to do with the HD7's android port?
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
dear friend you seem to know everything and everyone who is seem to be developing port for HD7????

but i think u are just pretanding to know what is happeningl... u have no clue what is happening... just like you claim that the HD7 is a T Mobile device.. its not a T Mobile device, but just sitting next to a T Mobile device... in fact its a clone which is made to look just like HD7...

http://zomgitscj.com/2011/05/12/video-htc-hd7-hacked-to-be-first-windows-phone-running-android-port/

and what i mean by OEM using the current android devices to RUN WP7 is... THEY WILL RUN WP7 ON IT... samsung galaxy 2 will be a WP7 phone in august or sep, and fujitsu's top android device will be having WP7 on it as well....

OEM's will not sell duel boot devices.... as MS will not approve of it...
[HD7 General] DavieGee:
Lmao you're joking right ? I'm the one talking nonscence am i?

Its fair enough to think that, it just means that devices are gonna be the same and run 2 different operating systems, which will make phones boring tbh.. And OEM's will not care what microsoft thinks, as if they don't want to agree they will go for a different OS, losing Microsoft customers.

Theres no T-mobile HD7 Is There? http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/Phones/cell-phone-detail.aspx?cell-phone=HTC-HD7 .. There you go, so now whos the idiot who didn't know what they were talking about..

I have accounts on both xda.cn and Darkforcesteam.com.cn and follow them daily, The big talk on DarkForcesTeam at the moment is the HSPL/RSPL 5-in-1 solution to allow android to be dual booted with WP7 more easily is near enough completed. But if you make the effort to make an account you would be able to see it

Don't come on here dictating how I'm pretending, you don't even know that T-mobile brought out a HD7..

This Port is very real, now remember what you said, your not interested in it, so go away and pester someone else who cares about your opinion. I hope this is enough proof to other people that I know what im talking about and im not pretending.
[HD7 General] mariu$:
thanks davie, im waiting for updates, i hope android comes soon

wp7 is facking BORING
[HD7 General] songoku119:
Better put on your fire proof suit cuz there's a flame war going on! Ya know every time I come in here to read up on the latest "news" and speculation, all I ever see is "fake and gay" and "your wrong" and not much solid info. If Davie is trying to provide legit info then let him be. Can we get a mod up in here? Stay on topic people! Its hard to get any real info when you have to wade through all this crap. On a side note, yes, the t-mobile hd7 is indeed not a fake phone, or at least i hope not because I don't know what I have been holding for the past few months then...
[HD7 General] dacook2:
i am sorry my super saiyan friend that isn't a good idea because if they delete the many replies here than everybody will see and the developers that not a lot of members are interested in the android for the hd7 device.

The many replies is telling that the android is being wanted a lot in here that's what it makes this sticky special and it shows that with it's full glory even if it has stupid comments like sandrax which thank god isn't here anymore of why and when all the time.
[HD7 General] hardik_hrc:
I cant read 70 pages just to find an answer if Android is available on HTC HD7 or not.

i thought moderator had made it clear in the begining "STICK TO THE TOPIC".

but i see lots of babble.

if anyone can help me find the answer to my question then i will love that.

Is android (any version but dual boot of gingerbread with my current mango will do wonders) available?
[HD7 General] dacook2:
A simple answer No android is not available at the moment for the HTC HD7 device yet.

You don't need to read the 70 pages anymore you can thank me later.
[HD7 General] mariu$:
you will see new threads if android is available so dont worry too much
[HD7 General] a_ok2me:
Sell It!

I've finally got tired of waiting for an Android. Just sell the P...OS before resale prices drop further.

When and if an Android comes out, you'll most likely be disappointed with it and want to sell it anyway. Let those who want WP7 buy your HD7.
[HD7 General] mariu$:
if id find an android with build quality close to my mozart id buy it

and on top of the plastic sh1t i have to pay 150E more

no thanks

Very nice, after all this wait, that pepsi dude over in xda.cn is probably a phony, i had lost my hope and sold my HD7, but im grad that someone in xda-dev came up with something finally, for those who still have a HD7, congrats!

Or it is not being prepared?
[HD7 General] mariu$:
i want to know that too

for mozart
[HD7 General] samson_420:
I say Android will be released it about six month(IMO).

But, we know it will be full of bugs. I worked on my HD2 for a long time. Sheet, NAND just came out like six months ago and the phone has been out forever.
[HD7 General] mariu$:
so what was the interval from nand to working-Android for HD2?

this tool released now is NAND?
[HD7 General] samson_420:
One year

Yes, it is not a dual loader.

[HD7 General] TheiPhoneKiller:
im thinking it could be a thew months yet,HSPL may be one thing,you may even be able to install windows 6.5 and try and boot android from SD(the mass storage in HD7 is actually an sd card before anyone asks) but to run android properly it may requare NAND and then next step is getting CWM.it may be worth taking a trip over to the HD2 forums for more
[HD7 General] DavieGee:
I'll be greatful whenever it comes out, cause now the non believers that plagued this forum can see that progress is being made

its nice to have the ability now to flash any WP7 rom you want

but if you look at the timescale for the HD2's android, it was about a year, so I'm using that as a rough estimate, but quite happy with mango at the moment, well done to cortulla and co. :)
[HD7 General] samson_420:
If I can have my HD2's quality in a HD7 I would be a happy camper.

The HD7 really does look sweet.
[HD7 General] XPLANE9:
All we need now is a solution similar to MAGLDR and then we are set. I can't see an SD build happening until some developer or Microsoft implements access to the file system from within the phone.
[HD7 General] cybercode:
No

I just wanna to my android takes full control over my HD7 phone. I do not care for WP7 :)

Simple only android.

ANDROID 4 EVER
[HD7 General] turphed:

[HD7 General] AidenM:
No. There is no Android ROM available.
[HD7 General] StyxJ:
Kind disappointed about no android roms, but I like wp7 enough anyway.
[HD7 General] cybercode:
i bet

I bet that Android for HTC HD7 will comes out in next 6 mounts. There is nothing to worry about :) :D
[HD7 General] XPLANE9:
I wonder what percentage of the WP7 community is going to switch to Android once it is released. With Mango coming, WP7 is growing to be a fairly competitive operating system to iOS and Android, and unlike Windows Mobile, is actually good :D. Oh course Windows Mobile was why 90% or more of the HD2 community changed to Android :rolleyes:.
[HD7 General] hankbizzo5:
Sure thing I will make the android switch when available..... open source is the way to go..... Do not get me wrong i have been a fan of win mo since it was only on pda's..... From my ppc6700 to a g1 with android was the moment i fell in love with android..... Now my hd7 is ready for the switch......
[HD7 General] samson_420:
For sure. . . . .

I can't use WinMo. . . . . It's like a downgrade from a Viper to a Miata. Yes it works, but compare the 2.
[HD7 General] Zakkusu:
I traded my hd7 for an hd2 and you know what?

Since I had android with the hd2, I was able to enjoy my phone again, win mo 7 would be great but you can't compare a BMW one with an Mercedes amg so...don't bother youself, just get an android phone and start enjoying your phone.
[HD7 General] XPLANE9:
True, sometimes I do miss the customizations and rom flashing on Android. However, it feels nice knowing that I am one of the few people owning a WP7 in my community :D.
[HD7 General] mariu$:
thas is nice for sure

and its simple, but it also lacks some features

now im with 7713, and it corrected most of the wp7 problems, except flash and a more lively UI
[HD7 General] sthEn:
As much as i love WP7, i would like to use MIUI (and MIUI only) from SD from time to time :) Hope it will be possible soon.
[HD7 General] peppe3d:
I just bought hd7 yesterday at a very special price and I'm Absolutely looking forward for a custom android release! Great work DFT ad always!!
[HD7 General] jr_enver:
Hasn't this post become a bit pointless.

i understand the original poster wanted an android with a decent spec but more importantly a physical keyboard. when this was originally posted there was a lack of these spec handsets out there.

with the emergence and imminent release of several decent spec qwerty's why would we need to flash the HD7 to android.

i understand that anyone stuck with the HD7 on windows, will be interested. but as this is now 70+ pages long and started with a question about qwerty's maybe a new post purely for the rom flash may be advisable.

whats it take to create android rom..

so I was just thinking, now that we got HSPL, how do the developers go about creating an android rom. Do they just go pick a rom and customize it to the hd7 and then just flash it? or how does that work? anyone knows? with the hd2 being so close to the hd7, would it be easier to mod a hd2 android rom to work on a hd7? Dunno, just curious. :)

Hello, how are you? I'm new at XDA but I follow this topic for quite some time. I'm from Brazil. I was thinking about trying to use the tools available to the HD2 on the HD7. I was reading the HD2 forums, the only difference is the version of Radio, i think. I'm seriously considering trying to flashing the roms of the HD2, but I am afraid of not getting the system back if something goes wrong. Would anyone be willing to help me? Using google translator, sorry for bad english.

[HD7 General] Armarn:
Lets make a poll and show developers how many of us going to donate to the project and will use Adndroid on HD7!
[HD7 General] balliver:
There's a way to "Hard Reset" the OS on the phone, if you hold down both volume buttons while you power on the phone it will allow you to either re-flash the original OS (which could then be re-updated to NoDo) or run a CRC check on the file system, so if you were to flash the HD2 andriod OS onto the phone you should be able to reset it in case it doesn't work... I think but I have not done this so don't hold me to it :P
[HD7 General] rodsis:
cool, I'll try tomorrow. Cross your fingers!

Someone Attempting To Port MAGDLR 113 To HD7

Not been on this post for a while, seems more civilized now that the HSPL has been released :)

If anyone has a DarkForcesTeam website account, easy enough to make, caught my eyes on this post http://rtnmomvv2v7yk.www.darkforces...?mod=viewthread&tid=45325&extra=page=1&page=1

Basically its one of the HD7 users who is attempting to port MAGDLR to the device. Don't know if it will ever be successful, he has been able to boot MAGDLR but it won't work according to the post, due to our HSPL. the HD2's MAGDLR uses HSPL 2.08 and not our HSPL 3. (NOTE: I use google translate for this chinese website so If this information isn't 100% correct then I apologise, any chinese members that use the website and can translate better would be appreciated :) )

May never be successful, even Mwang has criticized it for being suicidal to their device, but its always good to keep an eye on these things, they may suprise you :D
[HD7 General] hankbizzo5:

Look at this guys from Cortulla: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1255829 (Slightly Off Topic But I'll Explain)

I'm no developer but With DFT providing a full unlock in the future its surely going to be easy to exploit android onto the device, maybe the way the HD2 started out ?

Like I said I'm not 100% on that as I'm not a developer, but our phones are becoming more and more open and thats brilliant :)
