Thank you

Watching http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2vx5YVyEzI this over and over...only thing what can be fake is phone not OS
[HD7 General] XPLANE9:
Definitely a fake device. The HD7 has a search key, not a menu button resembling the one on a Sensation.

I want android

I bought this stupid windows 7 phone for 300+ USD, and now I cant even sell it .

Its embarasing to see that china is able to make one but Us hackers are out of knwledge.

Oh well I guess ill have spend anothe 300 + for Android phone.

You could have been saving me money and I always donate.

:(:eek:
[HD7 General] samson_420:
Sucks, but I still agree. WMO7 is total crap.

Should start a bounty for a fully functional Android ROM that can be used on this bad ass piece of hardware.
[HD7 General] rielza:
hurmm for me wp7 is not bad at all...but if android os can be port on hd7,it would be great!
[HD7 General] small_hopes:

Is there any project for android that we can donate it .

Thanks
[HD7 General] mooseman2142:

Well, when finally the long-awaited Android appears to HD7
[HD7 General] g00dy:
i think we all saw that mango is not a professional system like WM 6.1 , we still can't use static ip address for wifi or VPN, you can't compare setting in android and mango, mango is so poor!! and i have lots of problem with persian (and also arabic) language in internet explorer and also there is not other better browser such as opera or firefox!

they just advertise for it and now i think we must get rid of it because it seems that developers never going to port android on it because they don't have to pay for our mistake!
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
one thing u said right no one will care for YOUR mistake....
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
microsoft made sure that no one can load things from memory cards, when u change the memory card u need to hard reset the phone and that will del/format the card....

microsoft has done there home work i guess, and they want developers to focus on developing apps insted of wasting time on porting OS the a device which is made to run Windows...

no hard feelings but there are alot of great chefs on XDA and if they focus they will be developing great apps to help alot of ppl and make some money for there self insted of trying to make android work on a device which is not built for android...
[HD7 General] antonsb:
I am also using Android on my HD2 right now and EVERYTHING works PRETTY WELL. A couple months ago it might have been bad, but now it's just perfect.

Now, the HD7 is likely the same device as the HD2 (or mostly) as this would lower R&D costs for HTC (given that from the published specs everything is the same they have little incentive to use different internals - e.g. buy accelerometers from a different manufacturer). There's a team working on making the HD2 boot WP7 through a new bootloader that I think Cottula is developing. That bootloader will support booting 2 OSs from what I've heard. Now, if that works for the HD2 it will likely work on the HD7 too. The added benefit of the HD7 is that it's a legitimate WP7 device with a device ID so one would be able to use WP7 cloud services; then Android as you know, already does everything on the HD2.
[HD7 General] iwinmac:
wish i can help... i am up for dual boot.
[HD7 General] nrfitchett4:
then you weren't really dual booting if you were only booting winmo to jump right into android.

They still don't have data working perfectly on the hd2, you are not getting the same speeds as winmo and I doubt they ever will.

The reason you can boot android on the hd2 is the memory card. Remember that the mem card on the hd7 is internal and considered the phone's hard drive. For this to even be feasible, they would have to find a way to partition the SD card (which is secure enabled with a password you do not know), and somehow make the phone register this partition as external storage. Considering there is no such thing as external storage on the wp7, I don't see this happening for quite some time if ever.
[HD7 General] antonsb:
The memory card is internal as far as the OS concerned, but there might be no hardware difference as there is no need to have such. The encryption of the memory card is done by WP7, not by some hardware mod as far as I understand. Also, there are ways to format an encrypted SD card and bring it back to an unencrypted state (e.g. this). So, while I haven't looked into the specifics just yet, I have no reason to believe there are hardware differences in the storage systems of the HD2 and HD7 (except for the physical location of the slots).

Hopefully I'll have more time to look into it in the coming weeks.
[HD7 General] nrfitchett4:
there is a difference in the memory. For wp7, any memory the phone sees is considered internal memory by the phone. So to get around this, you would have to somehow partition this memory and rename it as external memory which it doesn't seem that wp7 supports.
[HD7 General] chip0:
ok so people keep saying to just get a desire hd, well i live in southern cali and i have not seen a desire hd in any tmobile store that ive been to where the hell do i get one from?
[HD7 General] xmoneyx8xcashx:
someone definitely needs to come out with android for the hd7 i had the hd2 but it broke so i got the hd7 and its mad good but windows sucks theres a million things that you cant do on it that you can in android :(
[HD7 General] rapproduca:
and that is why its upgrade time but im not buying the hd7 now if the end of that year comes, there still is no 4.3in Android, and the hd7 becomes dual bootable than damnit im grabbin the HD7
[HD7 General] rapproduca:
The Desire HD is only sold in Europe. And does NOT have tmobile 3G or HSDPA bands for the radio
[HD7 General] samson_420:
I think it will work the same as the HD7. All the specs are the same, it looks like the frequencies are the same on both.

The Desire HD just does not look as polished and is just damn expensive.
[HD7 General] :
return it and get a droid, evo, g2 or desire hd. wp7 is as locked down as ios, you'd need a jailbreak to load a xap that contains android and its procedures. don't even know if it's possible considering how wp7 is not a wm where the registry is in plain sight.

last time i checked, 5 does not equal 4.3
[HD7 General] antonsb:
Just so you guys know, T-Mobile's bands are 1700/2100, not 900/2100. The HD2 and HD7 support them, but the Desire HD does not AFAIK.

Also, with regards to WP7 being locked down - Microsoft said that they will incorporate a way for manually installing homebrew apps (that is, XAPs) in the very near future (let's hope January). So it's not quite as locked down as iOS. It's no Android either, but much closer to it than to iOS.
[HD7 General] nrfitchett4:
take it back and get a mytouch 4g.

I wouldn't hold my breath on that one.
[HD7 General] nickshaffer:
vikramdhani,

It's very simple why people are asking about Android on the HD7. Obviously, like me, they have purchased the HD7 hoping that maybe, for once, this new Windows 7 phone will not be as horrid and disgusting as all of the previous Windows phones. After a few days they realize their fear is reality because yet again, Windows has pumped everyone up saying this phone will be awesome "with new updating live tiles" and a few other features. But we soon find out that this phone sucks and we would now like to put the phenomenal OS known as Android on this phone because it would make it immaculate.
[HD7 General] xmoneyx8xcashx:
agree 100% lol

Even with the updated comin like copy and paste and background apps it still won't be that great Android has everything windows had and alot more its a waste of time making windows better it so much better and faster to just port Android on this phone
[HD7 General] efjay:
Easy. Buy an android phone!
[HD7 General] metroidnemesis13:
I am sure one day someone will write a program like haret that emulates Android on WP7 because eventually they (the users) are going to get sick of just WP7 like WM6.x users did. It is only a matter of time. As for how much time... if you really want WP7 and Android and you can't compromise go with the HD2. I'm sure it will be the first phone to have some sort of oddball WM6.5/WP7/Android triple boot, and assuming 6.5 still is partitioned somewhere on the phone or SD, you could run haret off that.

Or get a Nexus S :)
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
you and the rest of those guys who want to run Android on WP7 devices or HD7 can wait for EVER... as u guys will not get a duel boot on HD7 or other WP7 devices....

why the hell u buy a HD7 and wanting to load Android on it... go buy a HD2 as that allows Android, and now its even cheaper then before...

and just for your info Nexus S will not have removable memory card as well... cheers....
[HD7 General] hankbizzo5:
Well from what i have found on another forum that there are some devs that are working on a android port..... From what they have said there are a few snags that are slowing down the process but they want all the glory so they will not ask any outsiders for help..... Also they have said we should be expecting a release some time in the near feature..... So looks like we just need to wait and hope this gets pushed out soon.....
[HD7 General] samson_420:
What forum might this be? XDA is pretty much where any real development gets done. . . . If it ain't here it ain't anywhere.
[HD7 General] lordtheron:
WP7 and Android on HD7? Awesome!!

Hi All,

Why some people slag off the idea of having android on hd7?

I think its great idea to port android to hd7. I bought my hd7 as soon as it was out and at the time there was no info how much the OS will be locked and how limited custmization will be. Overral I like hd7 and wp7 and i wouldn't swap it for Desire hd. I have to admit wp7 its not a great OS but its not so bad either and I kinda like it. To have android and dual boot would be awesome!! HD7 hardware is good so to run android as 2nd OS would make me very happy man. It would give you a choice and you get the best of both worlds. :D

I hope that some clever dudes working on it.

[HD7 General] hankbizzo5:

HD7 for Testing

Guys, if you have any ROM that can be tested let me know. I just got an HD7 from a friend who doesn't really need it, and is welling to have the risk trying various OS on it.

and ofc he will never show up again with that link...same as many other
[HD7 General] nexus809:
is there a launcher for the hd7 with the android look? i know that there's an app for android named launcher7 that has the wp7 look, i was wondering if the same could be done for the hd7.....
[HD7 General] samson_420:
Ummmmm, no
[HD7 General] mooseman2142:
i think i'm going to sell my family's hd7's, looks like nothing is going to come of this.
[HD7 General] samson_420:
I am starting to agree, just for the fact that there are so many other Android devices.
[HD7 General] gcmobile:
I ve done it too. :-D
[HD7 General] a_ok2me:
Luckily for me, I got the HD7 for free to open my account + $100 rebate and then sold it for $220. So I got $320 out of it. WM7 is junk.

In the next month or so, we'll have new phones that almost have true 1080pHD display, faster download speeds, newer Android OS, etc. I'd say sell the HD7 while it's still worth something.
[HD7 General] hootnath:
I disagree... the more apps you have running the more they use CPU the higher CPU usage even at static speed/ frequency causes higher battery usage once the speed scales up it causes more drain .. plus the more you have in your memory the more memory it uses ... and if those apps address using caches or data from sd card that's a further drain

[HD7 General] llilkiknti:
The way some of you are crying is pathetic. The HD7 was never designed to run android, and knowing this, some of you still bought the phone. You knew it was powered by Windows Phone OS. If you want android so bad, sell your HD7 on eBay and buy either an Android phone or an HD2. Some of us actually like the Windows 7 OS and with Mango, it's a good phone. Some of you are really stuck in the pocket pc days. Those days are dead.
[HD7 General] mariu$:
android is better and thats a fact, go and compare the potential of the 2 os's

on my last android phone the battery lasted half a day

i have a htc mozart and the battery has now 4 days without a recharge, why do you think its like that?

the only advantage of wp7 is its simplicity, but that's also its disadvantage, you can do only hafl of the things you want

if i found an android phone with this metal hardware and a price premium of max. 20% id buy it the same day
[HD7 General] ryankopp:
I am an IT guy and my company happened to purchase me the HD7 because they wrote an app for the windows 7 phone and wanted me to support the users in the company that were getting the phones to support the app for our customers. I have had it for at least a year now. I put the new windows 7.5 on it and it was an improvement but nothing really worth writing home about. I got my hands on an HD2 we had floating around and I flashed it with Android 2.2. Android is so much better its ridiculous. Being an IT guy one of the features that I uses is Remote Desktop windows 7 phone did not have that built in and all the apps that were available were terrible and didn't work. I am happy with the HD2 but I do like the feel of the HD7 better and would love to flash that to android ASAP. I think HTC should make switching the phone operating system an easier task because its like why would I want to buy an android phone when really the phone I have is the same hardware basically with just a different operating system. I have seen some videos and websites with the android running on the HD7 some one is just not sharing the knowledge yet! I hope they do soon!
[HD7 General] J_S_P:
I am in the same boat as ryankopp! Tmobile adds a bunch of BS to this issue and I am also thinking of the obvious fails from win mob 7 (replying in an email thread with an office attachment was not possible + custom ringtones...) that should have been taken care of ahead of time. Mango should have been the first release of mob7 but I digress. I'm just saying, HD7 with Android 2.2 or better would be the best combo ever!!!
[HD7 General] thehammer10:
this thread is full of people saying "why don't you just buy an android phone" or "just buy an hd2" or "why would you buy a Windows phone to put andoid in it". I think this is all irrelevant. why don't we all just find a solution to the problem which is how to get android on the HTC HD7.

So what is the status on this? Has any developer come up with a way to get android on the hd7?
[HD7 General] paallday:
I dont know how anybody says they like the windows 7 os those tiles ssssuuuuuccccccckkkkkkkk i got a evo for my hd7 ps shouldnt you guys be more concerned about makeing a recovery? So that if your flashing and something goes bad you have a place to jump back to?
[HD7 General] bubbl3:

bye HD7 iPhone 4S here i come
[HD7 General] samson_420:
Yup, the Galaxy s2 seems to be the next one up for me 2.

Wmo7 is still garbage.
[HD7 General] Kiladar:
To Be clearly honest

The reason im sure some of us are looking to put android on the hd7 cause no phones had the nice big screen that came with the hd7 until the Galaxy S II and the HTC Sensation II, they have the nice big screen and run android but the hd7 had the nicest screen untill these came out now now its time to get the hd7 running android!
[HD7 General] merkcity:
Wow I just finished looking at all the roms for hd7 and I think its amazing how they keep the os the same and keep changing the colors and icons over and over again and give them cool names like the new mango slice its mango with new icons for your home screen O.o what the hell???

hd2 was only pose to run wm6 and look at it now so if you got a problem with people asking for android to make this device better why dont you make your own thread about how android shoudnt be on hd7 and see how many people agree vs disagree

This message was forced to be sent from my wack hd7 mang-blow because im flashing my hd2 into something epic
[HD7 General] vladtdr:
i can't understand what is taking so long... i mean hd7 is almost the same as hd2 and if the hd2 can run android perfectly why can't the hd7 do the same?It has been a year since it's launch...Should we be more patient? Well i can live with that if i would know that something is being done to port android on hd7 but i have no hope to cling on...just some (maybe fake) videos drom china
[HD7 General] 5ft24:
The HD2 hardware was designed for android from the ground up. it just happens, that like in PC's, windows phone 7 will also run on that hardware.

Microsoft always makes it's designs almost proprietary, like apple, so it's not surprising that it is a big leap to get android to run on the phone designed strictly for WP7.
[HD7 General] paallday:
Evo Has a bigger screen.

[HD7 General] StankPie:
no, it wasn't.

hd7 and evo have the same size screen.
[HD7 General] merkcity:
Well guys it seems like its the end for hd7, mango was crappy they gave us over 500 new features but we can only notice/use only about 15 of them all the devs are in denial that the os sucks so they keep changing the colors making the same crappy os in blue, red, black, etc... we have a china man fraud who promised android but has been studying for midterms for almost three months now O.o its a shame really i like the phone and i really thought the os was promising but its pretty much crap micrsoft should stick to making computer software and gaming systems cause they blow at making cellphone software.....ps if your selling your phone you better be quick cause the price for hd7 are dropping fast craigslist is offering less than 200 for the phone its sad really
[HD7 General] dacook2:
I am sorry to see some of you not liking the WP7 on HD7 yeah i know it sucks and i am enjoying my android SGS2.

To be honest move on people me and you were the first generation who were stupid enough to buy a device like that, ok let's not say stupid but we thought we could have android and the fance WP7 we found out that we failed in the end i hope other people don't ever buy a device with that trashy OS again.

:| sorry but it's downhill from here if you don't buy another device that will make you happy.
[HD7 General] Tikka69:
i think it would be great if some devs would start to work on it! anzhuoku.com/brush/shuajijiaocheng/2011/0716/237.html on this page there they already begun with this... (try goolge translator) so if some of you know some android devs you should ask them and the wp devs should help them and as sooner you start asking them to do it the sooner you will have your android on hd7... i would do it by myself if i was a dev but i have no idea how to do it... in this moment i am only learning the first programmins steps
