Tap and Hold on the Home Screen and a menu will pop up. Remember, swiping right or left will give you 6 additional screens to modify if desired. :D Tap and hold any app or icon on the 5 home screens to modify or delete them.

You can change the Windows Mobile build to most other ROMs. There are a few that do not work correctly with Android, but I believe most of the newer ones do. I have a few that work quite well with it here. There are 6 total on posts #1&2. Keep in mind though, the AutoBoot into Android will be gone. There is an alternative Android Boot Program found here. Unfortunately, it will not run on my stripped down ROM, or I would have included it instead. It does run on my more complete ROMs though. It's a nice app. A MUCH upgraded version of what my small script does.

If you copy 1.0.3 over 1.0.2 it will remove your settings. If you baclup the Data.img file and replace it after copying over everything, that's supposed to keep your settings. Although, the Android Developer states that sometimes there are things that get replaced that should not. I belive the Background Image, and some other things...:confused:

I also run into the Lock Screen pause on occasion. Even with 1.0.3. Not sure what causes it. :o
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] deletemyaccount:
Great work! Just one thing....is the Android properly rooted? Whenever I try and do something that needs root permissions, I never get the popup and the action just fails.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about Android to know what that means. :o Pretty embarrased about that. :o

I would suggest asking in the Bluetopia Developers Thread as they would know more about that than I. I'm sorry I cannot be more help...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
Yes it is, which permissions are you refering to?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Thanks Scabes24, I'm over my head on that one. ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ph0ngvu:
SuperSport,

Do you know why, it takes quite around 4-5mins to get the GPS locked up on the Navigation & Google Map? Normally, in my house the, factory WM Google locked the GPS within first 15secs.

Also, I always see the connection appear as H instead of 3G, does it mean 3G is not working?

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
I don't know why the GPS Takes so long. I'm guessing it is not getting Assisted GPS. That's when the Data network helps find the location so the GPS does not have to search so hard. Is it that way every time, or just the first time?

H or 3G are both preferable. H is also a High Speed Network.

PS: I was reading where the Touch Screen Lag has been fixed, so it should not be too long until we have it on these ROMs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
Do you have a link to the touchscreen-fix thread? :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] C:\:
First post so sorry if this has been covered elsewhere:

First, a big THANK YOU! to Supersport for that sweet Youtube video! my HD2 is now totally amazing!! I used your lite winmo Android-ready ROM w/Radio included to load Mdeejay's Froyo Sense V2.4

Presently I has two problemz:

1. People I call can barely understand me, volume is fine but clarity is very poor, sounds muffled! Is this a ROM issue or a Radio issue?

2. I put the whole Mdeejay Froyo pack in "Storage Card\Android\", but when booting into winmo it doesn't automatically find it, so I have to start it from file explorer:

How should I move the files around to get it to play nice with your awesome winmo android boot option?

thanks again! I have learned a huge amount from all of xda's hard work!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Yes, it's here. I have already cooked it into a ROM, and it appears FIXED indeed. Also, GPS Fix seems to be back to where it should be. Under a minute on a cold boot. Only tested a little bit, so not positive if I was just lucky on both counts. Screen seems to be MUCH more responsive too.

1. I have not had any trouble with BlueTopia, but I just changed the Kernel to Hasterin and have not yet tried calls. It's 1:44am, so I will wait till tomorrow to verify. :p When you manually run Android, are you tapping CLRCAD.exe FIRST, then haret.exe? CLRCAD.exe is supposed to make the sound work properly, not sure if it affects the microphone.

2. Inside the Android folder, do you see CLRCAD.exe and haret.exe? Is the Android Folder Directly on the ROOT of the SD Card?

If all else fails, I guess you could backup your Android Folder, Flash this ROM, and replace Android with your preferred build. :o

PS: I'm STILL learning a LOT every day. It's definately a never ending education. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] beenja:
Great Work, keep improving your hard work dude
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] C:\:
Yes clrcad and haret are in there, I have been running clrcad the audio on my end is fantastic. Yes Android\ is in the root of the SD card, the error reads RunAndroid.mscr"There is no application associated with RunAndroid" Can I edit this mscr to make it associate?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
i think im having that problem too

it just stay on the "stick together" sceen right?

what do i do now
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] crisisinthecity:
No issues talking on the phone for me with bluetopia 1.0.3. I've used it a bunch. The speaker and mic are actaully way loud and clear on mine.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
its just stuck at the green HTC sceen after rebooting

i waited about 20mins

so i took the battery out

and reboot it

im still waiting

so do i restart the whole process again

and if so where do i being?

when i took out the battery and reboot it

it ask if i want to boot it back up in android

can i skip it

will anything happen?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Ok, that means that XDA_UC is not installed. I thought it was cooked into those lite roms. I don't remember if XDA_UC Can be installed from a CAB file. Does anyone else remember?

EDIT: I think I remember if you install Mortscript, then that AutoBoot will work. You can get MortScript 4.2 from this page.

After the Flash started, did you touch anything, or just wait for Android? When the flash completes, leave the USB plugged in and wait for Android. DO NOT touch anything until Android Unlock Screen appears. It takes about 20-25 mins from Flash Starting till Android Lock Screen appears. If that does not work, then reformat your SD Card and try agian. If you have HardSPL in there, no need for that step.

You can skip it, but the Windows Mobile ROM is Extremely Light. Not much in there.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
i didnt touch anything

okay i unpluged the usb during the flashing

is this a problem ?

how do i reformat my SD card?

do i need to reformat my SD i just bought my HD2 on sat.

so i havent put anything on it yet
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Wow, you are a daring person. :eek: I used my phone for a couple weeks before I tried to flash any custom ROMs.

The only reason I suggest leaving the USB in is so the phone does not go to sleep during the move process. After WM flashes, I've told it to move Android from Main Memory to the SD Card. Two benefits. 1. More space on Main Memory. 2. Android will not run from Main Memory (as far as I can figure out).

I format my SD Card using a Card Reader on my computer. Some ROMs have SD Format built in. My stripped one does not. You can try again without formatting, but there are posts before yours that stated theirs HAD to be formatted before it worked. Remember to backup your SD Card before formatting... Don't want to loose those Movies.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
okay im the task 29 part i get a whole bunch of erros

such as:

can not open C:\task.29.exe

cannot open c:\ enterbootloader.exe

cannot open c:\errorbattery.fig

cannot open c:\ errors usb.fig

cannot open c:\ modelID.fig

cannot open c:\ rapitool.exe

cannot open c:\ romupdateutility.cfg

cannot open c:\ RUU_signed.nbh

cannot open c:\RuuGetinfo.exe

cannot open c:\Ruuresource.dll

what the hell is going on

nvm i fixed it

i ran it as admin.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
The hell is, you probably did not Right Mouse click and Run As Administrator like posted in Step #6. :rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
okay after the superman flashing part.

i shouldnt touch my hd2 at all?

and what about the green HTC Screen(how long does that take?)

before that part is a Tmobile stick together screen

it seem to just stay there awhile

how long does that take?

and ps.

i dont have to reformat my SD card right?

could that be the problem why it wont load up the android

cause too much stuff is on the SD Card

i know that alot of questions

but bear with me im a noob
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Correct, after the SuperMan Flash starts to show percentage, don't touch it until you see the Blue Android Slide down to unlock screen. It should take about 20-25 mins total. Give it a few extra, just in case. The Green hTC logo takes about 8 minutes.

EDIT: Some people stated they DID have to reformat their SD Cards. I didn't, but some do.

PS: I'm a noob every day on something. It's all good. ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
thanks for the help man

now im currently waiting for the android to start up.

hopefully it doesnt screw up like last time
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
okay after the superman flash

it reboot and went to the tmobile stick together screen

then it went to the green HTC screen

its been about 20+ mins

i thought you say that part was about 8 mins

or does the whole process after the superman part takes 20+ mins?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] crisisinthecity:
It feels like an eternity and for half of it it looks like it's just sitting on the windows mobile home screen doing nothing, but it is! Just be patient.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
its been about an hour on the green HTC screen

is there something wrong

or do still wait?

i think the problem could be my SD card?

maybe

anyone else had this problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
At this point, I think your only option would be to reformat the SD Card just to be sure that's not the problem. Again, back up everything FIRST.

If it's not working, you might flash back to the OEM Stock ROM just to be sure the phone is ok that way.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xeryus3000:
How is the battery life on this? I know it’s a haret.exe, and usually the battery dies extremely fast . . . just wondering if there is any improvements in regards to that? :-P

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
okay im having major problems with this

i dont touch it after the superman flashing part

where it bring me to the stripped rom base?

even if it says there no sim card?

i have to press cancel

or should i leave it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ph0ngvu:
Well I see the trend like the first time after 5-6hrs of not using, GPS has a hard time to lock up. Otherwise, it's under a minute. Which this is never been the case when the HD2 is running with WM

I also did a test on H connection. it's slower than my wife HD2 3G on WM.

Thought? or is there anyway to improve it ?

thanks

also, where do i get this GPS fix?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ph0ngvu:
leave it, dont touch let it runs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xeryus3000:
Hey budd, did you ever get that pic msg working? :-/

On mine, it let me send ONCE, and never since. :-/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ph0ngvu:
this is what I've experienced

battery has been good to me on stand by... loosing about 10-% during 8-9hr at night.

medium usage wasted like >10hrs <12hrs (texting, calls, music)

heavy usage wasted like <8hrs (email, texting, twittering, games..)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
how did u get yours to work?

after not touch it

for the 2 reboots

i unplug my usb

could that interrupt the flashing?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ph0ngvu:
I dont think it will interrupt anything other than charging because your Computer would not understand the phone anyway. I dont unplug the USB cable as like SuperSport said to keep the phone from idling. I would take out the SD cards, plug in to a card reader and format with FAT32 then redo the Task29 & AutoFlash. I did have to wait quite a while on the last screen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
how long did u wait on the last screen

30-40mins?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ph0ngvu:
i am not sure... I left for dinner and when i came back, it was done. What kind of miniSD do you have? 16GB?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
oh **** i finally got it to work...

after hours of waiting....

will update on how this device goes

or any problems

and what kind of apps do you guys have on here

or any cool feature that is different from the stock rom

ps. how do i remove widgets on the home page?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] RKHosey:
Awesome --cant thank you enough

Awesome --cant thank you enough
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] crisisinthecity:
You should be posting in the Topia Build thread linked in the first post with quesitons on the Android build. All Superman did was cook a stripped ROM with a script to autoboot Android, then have it copy the files to your SD card for you to make something easy for noobs to use to run Android.

He's not the Android Build creator. Lots of your questions will be answered just reading the Build thread and you are more likely to get an answer there as well.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
how to i install my hd2 to my computer

each time i plug in my usb

it say driver can not be install, need cd

i wanna sync music into my phone
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Thank you everyone for the help on all the answers! I Really Appreciate it.! :D I had to take a little break

CONGRATULATIONS thi713!!!! Enjoy the ROM. ;)

To Sync Android with your PC, you need to use HTC Sync. You can get it, and more information about it HERE. You can also use Your Google Account to Sync Info.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] 2002blackedge:
oh man, i have a noob question that i think the answer is no but im gonna give it a go anyways. is there another way to do the task 29 and the flash by using a card reader or anyother method, i seemed to have misplaced my usb cord.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] decent1978:
Internet not working

I'm using at&t service and the internet is not working ,will not open any pages on the browser , wifi is working fine
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
You do not need an SD card to perform task29, however, you do need it to run Android.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] 2002blackedge:
i have an sd card, i misplaced my usb cord, wanted to know if i can do this flash with out the usb cord
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] postrero:
The battery life is pretty good compared to other builds but the winmo base rom and radio have alot to do with the quality too. Currently using the core cell v.4 with radio 2.15 and it is rockin.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] crisisinthecity:
Pretty sure you can flash task 29 from your SD card just like any ROM. Check THIS.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] 2002blackedge:
thankfully not needed, i ended up finding my usb cord. anyways i went ahead and did the whole process over includind the task 29 and format of the sd card to clear up my issue with the touchscreen being not responsive at times. all was great for bout 12 hours and then the screen went dead again, it took me about 2 hours to get the screen to respond again by continuously pressing the power button on and off while trying to swipe down the lock slider, i found that it helps holding the power button while it returns from standby. if anybody has any help to this problem it would be much appretiated because when this happens it basically renders my phone useless.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] daunte24:
i had same issue turns out it was a bad phone for me
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] 2002blackedge:
i hope this is not the case for me, which i dont think it is because i had never had this problem before ever. it had just happened when i flashed....all i can do is scratch my head and try and flash again i guess
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] thi713:
i found a problem with my camera. I cant record any vidoes on 720p. when i attempt to record a video, it freezes up on me. is there anyone else having this problem?

what can i do to fix it?

and does the android build allow a cookie's home tab?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] whosphil:
hey i installed the andriod os and i was wondering how i import all my SIM contacts to the phone.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] saadahmed786:
I installed this onto the HD2, but now i wanna put an unlock code into the phone. How would i go about doing that?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
When you insert a sim card that isn't supported, while powering the device on, it will ask you for the code.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
Some builds don't suppoert 720p video recording (sorry for the double post)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] saadahmed786:
I have 3 HD2's in front of me. 2 of them which i installed the ANDROID on dont show that SIM unlock screen when i insert an ATT sim card.

The HD2 which i didnt install the ANDROID on shows the screen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Scabes24:
Hmm.. I've unlocked 3 HD2 devices with custom Roms already flashed.

I would just backup your ROM, then flash a stock Rom from SD (which with remove HSPL too) and then try it. Are you sure it's not unlocked already??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] rich2007:
Is everyone auto-rotate screen is working? My don't work on anything, yes, have the auto-rotate check under option. Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] frigid:
Love it wmrom boots up so quick and gets me into android great job
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] saadahmed786:
yes, ive tried working att sim cards. how do you back up a rom and flash the stock? sorry im a newb.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Yes, you can flash using SD Card as mentioned by crisisinthecity.

You will need the Patch listed at the bottom of the first post of Android Build Forum. I use it and get ATT Network just fine. Of course only Edge, but that's an ATT HD2 limitation, even in WM.

That is true with this Android Build. 720p not supported yet.

No problems here.

Do you mean to unlock the SIM to ATT, or to have an unlock screen you enter a 4 digit pin into?

Thank you. That was the sole purpose of the Stripped WM. Just get into Android quickly. I am working on a FULL WM Manilla/Android/Radio Build so people will have choices with a Single Flash, but I'm having trouble getting it to fit within the NBH file size limits. Still trying... :confused:

PS: Thank you crisisinthecity and Scabes24! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] saadahmed786:
Unlock to ATT, i was told earlier in the thread that i have to re-install the original ROM for this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Reboot your phone, but stop the AutoBoot into Android by selecting "Cancel" quickly. (Bottom Right). Use your File Explorer to browse to the Windows Folder. Run the program SIMLock.exe. This will bring up the screen to allow you to enter your unlock code. If you tap SIMLock.exe and nothing happens, that means your phone is likely already unlocked.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] drice26i:
I have flashed 6 different roms had no interest in posting on any of them. This build... outstanding. Great job. I haven't experienced any issues what so ever. People follow the man's instructions word for word and you can't go wrong. I have one question. On most speedtest my upload is way more than my download. Radio 2.15...example: dl 0.51 mbps / ul 1.47 mbps
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
That IS odd. I'm thinking I am not be able to answer that one due to lack of experience. Try searching and then asking in the Android Build Thread and see if that's common. If not, maybe your Network Settings need tweaking a bit.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] saadahmed786:
SIMLock.exe isnt there. =/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
I'm running a different ROM at the moment, so I cannot check, but maybe verify "Show All Files" is checked. If still not there, I'll try to send you the file. maybe you can just copy it to Windows and run it? Not sure, have not tried that. :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] saadahmed786:
Its not there. =/ Yes, lets try doing that. I hope that works
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Sorry, here is the file. I hope there are no other files needed. Unzip, then copy the exe to your Windows Directory and run it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] saadahmed786:
Sorry for what?? Worked like a charm! Thanks!:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bacchusdiver:
Any upgrades yet

is there an update yet to get this pic msg fixed yet. because that other one did not work at all. i am running on the T-Mobile network but my phone is unlocked and is used all over the world.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Sorry it took so long. ;)

My MMS is working. Is anyone else still having the MMS issue?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bacchusdiver:
i am still have a problem with mms. whats were is the fix it file/program
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ph0ngvu:
MMS works for me.

I have problem with the volume when the phone is connected. It is pretty loud and even if the volume is down to the last node....

some time if I switched to Speaker phone and back, the volume fixed itself.

thought ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
I'm not sure. It appears you are on T-Mobile Network, so it should work out of the box without any adjustments. Do you have network access where you are trying it? Not WiFi, but GPRS Network? It must have Phone Network access to work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Chris Boyer:
Long press on the home page and a number of options will appear. Add short cut and widget and so on. I am loving android on this Phone. After flashing rom and installing the "right" android I have not had a single problem. It is amazing what these guys can do.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bassdroid:
i know where to get Swype. But id rather not say on here. It has worked on any ROM that i have used so far.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ipsaa:
do i need a fast sd card to install this rom ro i just use the original one?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
No, your stock card works fine.

UPDATE: Update hopefully coming today, I'm testing now. BlueTopia 1.0.3 with Kernel Hasterin 8.5.1. NO screen lag anymore! :D All else works the same... Not too sure about Battery Life since I have not run it long enough yet. It's supposed to be as good or better.

Installation will be exactly the same as before. I don't believe you can re-use your Data.img for this due to the Kernel being changed, but you can test it and see if you like.

Otherwise, use Titanium Backup to keep your info/progs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Ok, went back and read again about it. Try sending an MMS with WiFi turned off and see if that works. It's a limitation of Android at the moment.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] receptor123:
I just install ur rom. It´s working fine. Very good. I downloaded yesterday 11/29, is it the new update? Thanks man
