Well,even if this turns out to be a theme..hell i'll take the theme because that would probably be the closest, best WP7 theme iv'e seen as far as animation and functionality go and that way, i can keep winmo 6.5, spb mobile shell, run my android builds off the SD card AND somewhat have WP7. it would also save me for having to flash a new rom and i guess if what they say is true about the market not working, maybe having this for just a theme would be for the best right now...

[HD2 General] bowpay:
One thing is for certain I have not seen the HD2 have this much responsivness so I doubt this to be a theme. Again it is much too responsive to be RDC and last anyone know if that WLID Setup is anything to do with CHT? They both use the same cookie monster logo (I know that doesn't mean much). Also I looked up that Start KITL and it looks like some sort of remote tool.
[HD2 General] :
KITL is from the Windows Ce 6 toolkit

Further evidence that this is no theme :)

Hi dude, plz do some studies before talking...

chinese mobile phone number is composed by 10 digitals, the number you have seen "1(362)237-3325 and 1(860)305-1623" are chinese mobile number which were shown in wrong way on HD2, cause this wp7 rom is En version, its' phone dial pattern couldn't recognise chinese mobile number in right way.

the right way is 13622373325 and 18603051623. if you want call it, don't forget add chinese country code 0086, for exemple: 008613622373325. don't worry if you can't speak chinese, most young chinese can speak english well.
[HD2 General] Gaz25:
Quick google search I found this.

When you sign up with certain Microsoft online services, including KIN, you are asked to use a WLID (Windows Live ID, usually a Hotmail.com or Live.com email address) to create an account and user profile. Information on KIN and Zune accounts:

The KIN WLID account is what you used when you first went through the phone's setup process.

Note: You can check what this account is on the phone by going Settings > Account Sync > Phone Account. The email address listed is your KIN WLID account.

The KIN WLID account is not automatically a Zune account; you may need to create a Zune account if you do not have one already. The Zune account should be created using the same WLID as the KIN phone account.
[HD2 General] bowpay:
So possibly that application is used to spoof the phone's id with our Live ID therefor bypassing Xbox Live audit? Seems plausable at least in my HD2 head. lol I also doubt MS would put out an app that would do something like this nor have a icon of a cookie monster. lol
[HD2 General] gremaa:
Did anyone else notice that when the person went to shut off the HD2 in the second video, they pressed and held a button on the top of the phone? Maybe I just saw things wrong or something, but as far as I know there is no button on my HD2 at the top to turn off the phone. Am I missing something?
[HD2 General] bowpay:
Yeah, I think that the person was just routinely trying to shut off the device just like they did on the first one. Soon after the person then hits the power button -- bottom right. Good catch though. After watching that video I am sold that this is real and will be out soon -- last message for me. :-P

--Edit

Ok I lied this is my last post lol It looks like the reason why WLID would be on the phone is due to having to hard reset the device once a live ID is entered into the phone. Check out the thread

[HD2 General] Dewinter:
these are definitely chinese numbers , 136xxxxx is from China Mobile, 186xxxxxx is from China Unicom.

the phone's system locale is set to US so the numbers appears in american format.

the vids are took in ShenZhen,China , and the video shooter was probably a cell phone dealer. i hear the sound of "Taobao Messenger" which is the most popular C2C trading platform in china , just like ebay!

so, don't expect they'll release this ROM , i know those Shenzhen dealers' rule, once they got the unique ROM , they keep it as a highly protected secret to make profit from it.
[HD2 General] hendr1k:
I want WP7 boot like android from haret, since its kinda hassle to flash newer build everything that might brick your HD2
[HD2 General] nova hands:
860 is a Connecticut area code in the U.S.

It covers most of northern CT.

Not sure about the other one.
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
Ya but that's not going to happen because haret is linux based and WP7 isn't Linux based at all.:)
[HD2 General] rlydiard:
While I do not doubt the veracity of your information, I do find myself wondering how they would profit from the ROM. If they sold the ROM separately, and Microsoft finds out, would that not cause these dealers difficulties? So far, with Windows Mobile, HTC and Microsoft have been basically relaxed on IPR when hackers and chefs do not directly charge for a new ROM. I wonder if this relaxed attitude will remain in place with Windows Phone 7, especially if dealers are selling the ROM, or charging more for an HD2 with that ROM flashed onto it. HTC's position on such a situation would also be interesting, as it seems it would violate current licensing agreements HTC has with Microsoft.

With the viral spread of these videos, it does not seem that HTC and Microsoft would remain in the dark about such a ROM.

Do you have any thoughts on my speculations?
[HD2 General] Tachi91:
:(

Seeing as WP7 is already out and its been known that the HD2 was a developing phone for WP7 and as well as it was promised it would come to it officially by HTC only to be turned down by Microsoft... WP7 running on the HD2 right now or in the future is not far fetched.. In fact its already been done just not released to the public

As for me I've moved on from my HD2 but still watch these forums closely

the htc surround is at&t locked , this can't be from china
[HD2 General] drmodify:
Looks like the guys from china beat the guys from the US at this. I wonder why they beat them to the punch

I'm convinced that this video is real and its possible.. we should make a poll of who believes this is real or not :p

Even if some people think that this OS aint good coz of the lack of features still it is a pretty nice to try it out and it feels great if curiosity is fulfilled.
[HD2 General] rlydiard:
In addition to AT&T, the HTC Surround works on Telus (a Canadian company), which has voice roaming agreements with China Mobile and China Unicom, but no data roaming agreements with China Mobile or China Unicom. The HD2 and Surround both could work in China on GSM 900. Maybe that is why the video, as I recall, had no demonstration of data connections. I noticed that when the Surround is booting it displays Telus as the carrier, so I looked up the company.

I am not sure in which manufacturing plants the HTC Surround is produced, but HTC does have at least one plant in China now. How the people in the video got the Surround probably will not be known, but it does not seem at all strange.

It seems as though most evidence still indicates the guy in the video is Chinese, and the origin of the video is China, or, if not, then the origin is Canada. And, sad for us, according to one guy from China, we will not likely be getting a working ROM from them, at least for free.
[HD2 General] Imperator Nick:
I imagine they are not doing this for profit - but for the same reason we are, because it's so much damned fun to make your phone do interesting things
[HD2 General] rlydiard:
I do wish I could have your faith in humans. Having been to China before I have seen how profit can be a strong motive. It would not surprise me one bit that if the video is from dealers, then they would have a monetary concern, as our Chinese poster stated in the above posts.
[HD2 General] Aevum:
Im seeing several problems here.

1) once you flash WM7 you lose android since haret wont run on WM7 (atleast untill a proper port is done)

2) i can see MS and HTC sending cease and desist letters over this. they dont want this chopping in to WM7 phone sales.
[HD2 General] cjd198383:
Not too impressed. Worried about the level of personalization (apart from color). Looking forward to when it comes out to port to HD2 with extra features added, could be a while tho. HD2 with CHT, Android, Linux and other mods are awesome right now tho.

Judging from the second video this is almost certainly real. Or it's the most impressive skin ever.

Though I can't help but wonder if we'll ever actually see this released, or whether it's simply a showcase of an early test build from Microsoft and HTC.

[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
I've heard from a couple people that the device in the video is one of the test devices Microsoft put wp7 on for testing or it was Utah flashed with the test wp7 software. That's starting to make more sense considering the version on the video looks like an early version and that no one has gotten ahold of the rom or heard anything about it. If this is the case, it may still be a while before we see a flashable rom. I think our best bet is cotulla getting a version working with magldr... that would actually be my preference as I wouldn't want to flash my hd2 with wp7.
[HD2 General] rscaramelo:

This is not the same. This is from the WM7 theme thread at xda.cn. They never claim this one to be the real thing - in fact it clearly states the WM6.5 build number in the thread title and shows some screenshots with dodgy psuedo-buttons.

There is another thread on xda.cn where these videos came from. This is the real build which is not released "yet"

Is the themed 6.5 rom you installed the same that was being shown in those videos? If you get a chance, can you make a video of your hd2 with thatt rom. I was suspicious that this may be the case, because I've been hearing alot about them putting the wp7 ui on a 6.5 rom. I've been hoping it may be a real wp7 rom, though... as everybody is.

[HD2 General] rlydiard:
Nine will get you ten you did not download the ROM in the video. At any rate, it would be impossible to download a real Windows Phone 7 ROM in Chinese. Microsoft has not even completed localization of Windows Phone 7 in either Simplified or Traditional Chinese. I freelance edit/write for a PR company that represents Microsoft Taiwan, so I am quite certain of my information.

Last I noticed, the video only displayed an English UI on both the HD2 and the Surround. I think before you make claims of fake you should be more careful in examining the known facts.

As one other poster pointed out: This is not the same. This is from the WM7 theme thread at xda.cn. They never claim this one to be the real thing - in fact it clearly states the WM6.5 build number in the thread title and shows some screenshots with dodgy psuedo-buttons.

[HD2 General] Nevralgeek:
That's not a fake. Or it's a good fake, and I've not seen any theme that is running in such a smooth way.

The thing you posted must be a rom with Jaxbot's WP7 theme included or The Host.

Good themes, but far from having the same possibilities than what's shown in the video, not fluid as the real WP7 homescreen, not any smooth fade in-out.

Windows Phone 7 will be released for HD2, but not now.

I think we should wait till WP7 is jailbroken, in that way we'll have a lot of possibilities, marketplace enabled etc.

For now, juste have to wait for Chinese guys to release this rom, or Cotulla when he'll have his work on it finished.

Russia's hackers is tough, Windows Phone 7 am only a few days to have cracked it, and run perfectly on HTC HD2, and I turned a few twists and turns, and finally Europe in a small site to find this WP7 ROM, and then is testing and certification through the night, convinced that the WP7 and beta123, but the version number of the official version of build 7.0.0.6077, and detailed examination not only not impress viruses and back door for everyone to download, the WP7 ROM contains three documents, namely the two compressed (wm7_res_full.rar & XOS.rar), and a XOS list.txt contains wp7 complete system image (wm70full.bin), OEM software collection, XIP core, and system files, and I order a text file (XOS list.txt) that lists all the oem software information.

In another thread, a Chinese member called the number from the video and after a couple conversations with the Creator of the video, he was told something about it being fake or false. I think the Chinese just got ahold of one of the wp7 test hd2s. We may never know for sure.
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:

[HD2 General] rlydiard:
Later in the the above mentioned thread, the OP posted:

Personally, and I admit I have no proof for this, I think what we saw in the video, was an HD2 that was used as a testbed in the earlier development of WP7.

There is a lot of speculation going on now in China why the video was posted in the first place. One is that it is being used to jack up the price of the HD2 there, and from my sources there, there actually has been a price increase.

We may well never get to the bottom of this mystery, but I tend to agree with the poster of the above comments that most likely we have to look elsewhere for a solution.

With all these similar threads floating around now it is hard to keep up with everything. Maybe we need a new forum just for rumors and speculation concerning the porting of WP7 to the HD2. ;)
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
amen to that idea

Yea I give you an amen for that. :D
[HD2 General] rlydiard:
Maybe one of the mods will notice our posts and seriously consider opening up a new forum, making it easier to keep up with all the news.

Having a separate forum really would have quite a few advantages, I think.

[HD2 General] Nevralgeek:
The second video looks real to me.

But the first seems to be a fake.

Something's wrong in this one : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB2Dd6r5hek

The screen position isn't always accurate. Look at the boot sequence, when the screen is white, at the beginning of the video.

It's not an HD2 WVGA screen : the bottom of the screen is too high, compared to an hd2.

Too much space between the buttons/the HTC logo, and the bottom of the screen.

Sometimes it's at the great place, sometimes the screen's bottom is higher than in a real HD2.

The screen is perfectly OK in the second video.

So we have two options.

- fake video with good editing

- real video, but with a non-wvga wp7 rom.

Is it me, or its's weird ?
[HD2 General] 0711:

look where are the buttons...i think you see the shadow as part of the devices
