I have only had my Hd2 a little more than a month, started out with stock 6.5 and cht 2.0 until I stumbled on to xda. I then tried a few SD builds, mdj, bluetopia, read up on superram,and loved it. But I missed HTC sense, so I tried darkstone's v0.1 ram but could not get it smooth and stable ( I'm still a newb) so I tried mdj's ram build 4.6 I believe, but missed my camera.Went back to superRam discovered all of launcherpro's perks and am happy as can be. Following wp7 threads and may attempt wp7/superRam dual boot.

HTC HD2 (Leo) Custom ROM

I changed my stock ROM Jan 2010, just after getting my HD2, unlocked from Clove. Tried various 6.5 Custom ROMS but no good, Reverted back to stock 6.5 ROM, it seemed to be the best and stable out of all tried including Miri's from HTC Pedia. Dec 2010 changed to Duttys HD2 ML Family COM3 ROM (V14) [WWE], it seems to be OK so far, I still think stock ROMS are the best.

What I couldn't understand, HD2 was never updated to Windows Mobile 6.5.x by HTC (Not to my knowledge anyway), how comes you guys&gals are voting on Stock Windows Mobile 6.5.x?????
[HD2 General] jaidedfocus:
Android all the way for me! Not an Android fanboy but it gets the job done for me. I can still view all of my Word and Excel documents that were saved on my phone from WinMo and I get some awesome apps and games that weren't available to me on WinMo as well.

I am looking to try WP7 for a bit to see how well it works on my phone. First impressions from the day and a half I had it on my phone are good. Pretty smooth. They just need to iron out the wrinkles first.

I'm actually looking to try MeeGo on my phone if it is released. Looks like an interesting OS.

In the end, might go back to BlackBerry from the lineup I saw on BGR the other day. If that BlackBerry Storm 3 comes to my carrier or that new Curve, then my daily driver will be a BB again. But I will keep my HD2 for its awesomeness.:D
[HD2 General] flatlander_2k5:
What about Windows 98? There should be an "Other" selection cuz there's always gonna be someone doing it different, especially with such a capable device.
[HD2 General] salty bisquits:
WM 6.5x FTL!!! I been using CMYLXGO's Desire HD Nand Rom V1.0.5 and fell in love with my HD2 all over again very fast and stable rom for daily use :)
[HD2 General] jaidedfocus:
You can't use Windows 98 as a daily driver which is the qualifications the OP mentioned as a reason he left it out. Can't make calls on it.
[HD2 General] madteo:
thx devs for WP7

I'm using wp7 on my htc hd2. For me it is the best OS i've ever testet. Its incredible fast and smooth. Its only my opinion, but for me WP7 is better as every android build i have ever testet on our hd2. Even the camera 720p works fine:-), market, Xbox live, everythink works. THX Devs for the tutorials and WP7.

I' ve got also an iPhone 3gs, but now i'm using only my Hd2 vor daily use. The experimental days are Over:-)
[HD2 General] i n f a m o u s:
Did you just say 720p recording works in WP7?! Hmm... Is it possible to boot Linux from WP7? If so, I just might switch over to WP7 and dual boot Linux! :D
[HD2 General] scriller:
moved from winmo 6.5.3 to android nand, then now i'm on WP7 been using it on my HD2 since it was released by the cn DFT the other day. it was a major switch from flashing android roms daily (I got real tired of doing that).

still theres a couple kinks running WP7 on the HD2 namely multitouch zooming and the camera picture quality....but web browsing is sooo much better on WP7 than android was for me

androids fo show

i have been an android junkie sense my beloved g1 so i went to from that to my hd2 day one i hated winmo i had a wing and i find that its a phone not really fun in to many ways with android i can geek out for days with all the roms and such i if it wouldn't drive me completely insane i would prolly run a different rom every day if i had the time and memory cards lol. i think its awsome that wm7 is out there i looked at the videos but i cant leave the droid <3 :D
[HD2 General] Imaginary Enemy:
I've used Android and WM customs roms on my HD2 ever since they first started coming out and now WP7. I've got to say that it's kind of ridiculous how stable WP7 is on the HD2 after it's first public release compared to months of work on Android and WM roms. WM for me is still slow and buggy and Android despite all it's features just isn't as smooth and seamless as WP7 on HD2.
[HD2 General] shakeym:
Using Nand now for 2 weeks went back to a custom 6.5 rom and decided

after a couple of hours that Nand was a much smoother and sweeter system

to use......

Cheers.....
[HD2 General] madteo:
@i n f a m o u s: Yes, 720p works really fine on Wp7, but i don`t know if a dual boot option is possible.

@Imaginary Enemy: Yeah bro thats true! :D
[HD2 General] cyberx2002:
Up until recently have been an EnergyROM man, while booting SD Android variations. But since I got my Galaxy Tab, I left that for Android and flashed WP7 on the HD2 (seriously, this must be the best phone ever invented, I will eagerly await the day its successor comes out with a Super AMOLED screen...) and never looked back.

The speed is just... well, amazing!
[HD2 General] baybenbey:
This can not be understood by such a poll.

Because almost all the people using WinMo 6.5 , are also using Android SD

and vice versa

So it is like this in reality:

(WinMo 6.5 custom/stock + Android Sd) vs (Android NAND) vs (Wp7)

For the WinMo 6.5,

It only messes things up when you seperate custom and stock. You can make a different poll for that but here you shouldn't divide it since you didn't divide Android Nand into stock and custom.

So in summary, either you didnt think enough to make a meaningfull research or you tried to get a fake high Android NAND rate in your statistic.

P.S. I didn't even mention how the temporary member traffic will effect this poll since it is mostly the people who are interested in NAND are visiting here these days. Because other users dont need to. It is like a doctors clinic where you will mostly find people with some kind of problem and less people who just came for a regular check up.
[HD2 General] iscogd:
Hi, I still use original WM rom and would love to learn how to improve it and also use with Android.

Thanks for your help.

[HD2 General] justin wolf:
Familiar story here. Got the HD2, unaware of the limitations of WM, ready to sell it two weeks later. Then I found XDA and everything changed. Now the only way I'd give up my HD2 is if you offered me a Droid X with 3 years paid service and unlimited data. :D . All respect to the devs. Cotulla, DFT, darkstone, tytung among others.

WP7 users, hows the current drain with Bluetooth? I'm getting about a 60 mA drain in standby with my current build.

Android SD RAM.

I have been running Darkstone's SuperRam Froyo 1.5 for more than a month now and I haven't flash another rom since. Its the fastest most stable rom I've tried till now. I would like a stable NAND RAM rom to come out before I make the switch. I use windows rom hardly ever now, but I am curious in trying Windows 7, I will wait on that for another month or so until it seems a little bit more stable. Thanks for the poll idea and to all the devs and chefs out there making this a reality. HD2 user since the beginning, HTC Blackstone before that.
[HD2 General] kushXmaster:
I use darkstones sd/ram build of android daily. Only reason I keep winmo around is for office and video playback.

I'm really looking forward to giving WP7 a try in a month or so.
[HD2 General] demaxmeister:
For everyone saying windows 95/98 should be an option; it can't. It doesnt support phone function, so it can't be used as a daily driver. And for the dualbooting people, choose the main one. I also dualboot, but I use wp7 for sms and calling. Anyway, I hope you guys like this poll, I'm pleasantly suprised by the amount of attention it got, and by the fact that it's featured on the portal. Thanks xda!

Posted from my hd2 running wp7 ;)
[HD2 General] johnny5rlx:
running energyrom from januari right now

i have tried android on SD card (to be safe at first) and that runs smoothly. unfortunately it destroys winmo on the sd card, killing my feeling of safety so android became a non-option for me. just aint's gonna happen no more.

perhaps someday when i have an extra phone to fall back to, then it won't matter as much what happens to my hd2
[HD2 General] domenukk:
Why is there no Option to choose Android + WP7 multiboot? :P

Just kidding. Atm it's Windows Phone but will change to Android as soon as my 16 gigabyte sdhc arrives... (enough space for both worlds =) )
[HD2 General] Nakazul:
WP7 here. Its just amazing, one of the lucky bastards with a fully working 16gb sd card. No activation code, but the look and speed are amazing.Hotmail, gmail works with push on both. I dont have a Bluetooth headset so cant say about battery life with that, but as it is now its great. And the keyboard is a great reason it self to stay, typing experience is amazing.

I understand that many want to wait since a app store is a must for many peeps, but this wp7 release gives me no buggs at all.

Still a bit sad to see so many use Andriod, visually enchanting but i get no screen lagg with a Dutty WM rom. While loading might be fast, WM is faster when lanched app is up and running. Swipe on home screen in Andriod Sense gives screen lagg while WM Dutty or Energy is buttersmooth.

Well well, what do i know, everybody seems to be on andriod train so got to have somthing.

Best regards

Windows Phone 7

It's Sleek, It's fancy, Its smooth, it's beautiful.

i've installed all the possible software available and you do not need to activate also. thanks to XDA developers made things possible for not so rich people. now i even have an excess to my SD card dump and delete things from PC. again thanks to XDA DEV'S or i call them XDA GOD'S.

the one BIG time reason to stick with Windows Phone 7 is the Speech recognition technique. you say it and your phones does it for u.

still awaiting for fav. games like bubble breakers and if possible Angry birds.

one request from XDA GOD's. please try and change the desktop to customizable. like android or windows mobile. if that is done, no turning back for WP7.

there is a fear. one's meego full version releases, people might shift to meego. but before that try and make WP7 the best OS ever.

Microsoft is only interested in minting money no matter how much is in the treasure they need more. suckers! please give freedom for XDA God's and do not try to destroy the hard work been done by them.

Ever since i had my Touch Pro 2, i've been busy and attached to the my PC like a gum. :) then come HD2, plus a Galaxy S both are monsters. i only hope HTC make a deal with Samsung to get super amoled screen installed to HTC devices.

one's again thanks to XDA GOD'S for keeping me away from all the fights, keeping me away from stupid friends, keeping me away from noisy disc's, and more of keeping me away from the *****es.

Do continue the good job. and good guys shall always stick with the forum which is second good thing after the BIBLE. sorry god for comparison BUT it feels like getting a new life each time porting a new OS.

please always keep the site free for the sake of not so rich people as you see. we have money to buy a device but no money to buy software's. and if you guys not there, then it will be like using a phone like nokia(symbian) phones.

i salute!

I just LOVE my android Nand build ( iOs kiss my ass lol )

For windows phone 7 it's not so beautiful ( i hate the interface ), i'm waiting to have a nice stable an easy to install/uninstall it, but for now i'm enjoying my android build :o
[HD2 General] jacktackle:
Goodness, 1750 members voted already. that means what is the total no. of members in this forum???

it's a big HIT!
[HD2 General] SorenStirner:
Heya I was thinking about that when counting the votes :) that's a HUGE number of active users. No doubt the HD2 is the one and only heir of the Universal.

BTW I voted NANDroid but I got 2 of them and one is still running WinMo6.5. This weekend I'll give a try to WP7 on it (wich is basically not the toy one while the NANDroid is the everyday phone and this is what the poll asked).

Android Nand

Been running Android NAND here for about 2 weeks. Using JDMS 1.6.2 Ultimatedroid and absolutely everything works. I've always loved tinkering with my electronics, but never have i had the freedom that the hd2 grants us. Thank You Developers!
[HD2 General] chris_ah1:
Ex-Stock 6.5 - was fine but dull.

Ex-Custom 6.5.5 - Swapped between Laurentius and Energy's ROMs. Both are superb, very fast, great on the battery. In fact I think there is nothing wrong with WM6.5.5 at all tbh - I only run Android because I think it's geeky and cool - but I really miss S2U2 and CHT on Android.

Ex-SD: Started off with the first darkstone builds, then settled on MDJ's HD build ending with 4.6 release. Superb, fully featured, and now fully working. But not great with battery.

EX-SDRAM: Only used one ROM, Darkstone's Super Ram 1.5 - absolutely amazing. It might not be sense, but it was the fastest and very robust. Better, but not perfect battery.

Current-NAND: Tried the first cotulla release - that was very sweet. Then used gauner's 0.3 - absolutely amazing and I must admit it was tough uninstalling it in place of MDJ's CM7 build. I LOVE HD builds - it all looks perfect on the screen. However, CM7 is faster and all the core functions are there. I do miss the sense dialer though. Battery life has been the best on CM7 - 2ma idle versus 5ma on Gauner's original ROM. Perhaps that is because of advances in the kernel. But CM7 is a lot smoother and with A2SD+ fine. Unsquashed is also a bonus.

I might try WP7 - but tbh I'm quite opposed to it - I am curious as to the media ability though.
[HD2 General] mbuckley:
Stuck with stock WinMo 6.5 (albeit with a fair few mods) for a year til I decided to start looking around.

Switched permanently to ChuckyRom which was fantastic and at the same time started trying Android SD Roms. Went through a few and all had issues and needed regular rebooting.

Around a week or so ago I decided to take the plunge and install a NAND Android Rom. Second one I tried was MDJ's CyanogenMod and I just have to say it is amazing. Rock solid, no issues and battery life great too. I don't even want to upgrade to a newer version as I'm worried it'll not be as great as this one is!
[HD2 General] venomhtchd2:

Windows Phone 7

I use windows phone 7, and I love it.

Right behind that would be energy rom, followed by Sd

[HD2 General] kuttyjoe:
I'm using a custom Windows Mobile install at the moment. I've tried everything so far, Android NAND (too permanent), Android Ram(best for changing of mind), many custom Windows Mobile versions, Windows Phone 7, and I finally settled on one of the custom Windows Mobile versions. I keep a really fast Android Ram version on the phone which I can boot into for navigation or playing Angry Birds. LOL It's super fast and works 90% well, but I miss the utility-like nature of Windows Mobile. Bluetooth connections work best in Windows Mobile. I'm regularly sending items back and forth from phone to computer and Windows Mobile does this without a problem. Android, not so much. It fails most of the time. Email looks nice, but doesn't want to let me just download some random file, grab it and save it on the sd card. Viewing images is a very poor experience in Android. I wonder if it's like that for official Android phones??? Customization isn't as deep as WinMo. And every now and then Android drops it's data connection or maybe becomes unstable. I would prefer the more fancier "HTC" Android roms, but those tend to be slower and more problematic. I tried WP7 for a day but I already knew that it wouldn't be useful for me. I just wanted to experience it. In the end, I still want to have a computer in my pocket, and Windows Mobile is as close as anything has come to that. So after months and months of trying them all out, I'm back to Windows Mobile. I'm surprised that it is actually fairly smooth. No other rom I've tried actually turned out to operate smoothly. Eventually, I'm sure I will end up with Android, and an official Android phone. Some of the newer phones coming out look fantastic.

Love WP7

I am using WP7 as my daily OS.

I have used Android SD Froyo and like it alot, a few issues with it. Never used a Nand. I still had stock rom before moving to WP7. I have to say that I love everything about it. Copy/Past will be nice when i comes, but I can wait for it. Every thing I wanted my HD2 to be it now is. It is for the first time stable, haven't had to do anything to it. Market/Zune are working flawlessly since getting activation from Microsoft. It kind of sucks that you can't just access the memory card but most phone OS except for Android are going in that direction. For me I won't be going back to WM 6.5.X or Android. Android is very nice, but it is just not a native OS for the HD2 and WP7 feels native to the HD2.

WP7 for me. I went back to Android 2.3 a few days ago and it felt so play and ugly. Even though i miss quite alot of feature from android hand down my next phone will be WP7 cause it offers the nicest consistent UI

Nice to have a choice

Been sometime using the HD2 when it ran wm6, at one point I used it as a paper weight.

With word of a stable Android build, I found some time to use it as an emergency phone, but now it is my full time device.

Love having a large screen, everything works. The battery life is ok, but other than that the HD2 is my first choice, I had the Nexus one and also the G2, till use them, but the HD2 has taken center stage.
[HD2 General] tfouto:
WP7 all the way... When i was about to try wp7 i tought it was just for a few days, when i get back to Android i just use it like 30 minutes. Its feels so outdated and slow compared with wp7. WP7 lacks several functionalities yet, as its a newborn OS, but i just prefer the experience of using wp7 than Android or WM.
[HD2 General] numbskull100:
Went to WP7, love the interface, but it is still way too buggy.

Once the issues are ironed out and basics like a headset work, I will be straight back, but for now Android NAND wins for me.
[HD2 General] evereste:
Bought the HD2 so I could try android, linux multiple 6.5 rom, loved it particularly DFT Nand.

Then DFT Windows 7 has blown my mind...FANTASTIC!
[HD2 General] joshk1025:
I really love MDJ's cm7 nand.
[HD2 General] chris_ah1:
I find that radio reception is better and more reliable with Android NAND - also data seems faster/more stable and I have not had to reset the device yet.
[HD2 General] ez2remember:
Can't wait for a simple dual boot method like currently for WM6.5 and Android. I would like dual boot WP7 and Darkstone SuperRAM. :)
[HD2 General] madteo:
My Bluetooth haedset Works great under Wp7. I will never return to android. Compared to wp7, android is after month of developing still buggy. I don't like the ugly interfce with the different kind of Icons. For sure, android is better then wm6.5, but far away from wp7.

Wp7 whats working???

- 720p camera

- Bluetooth Headset

- Mms

- WLAN

- Market...

still everythink works fine for me.

Games perfomance is higher then under android. Take a look to Need for Speed Underground.
[HD2 General] sallal:
Actually i use on my HD2 mainly the WP7 rom cuz its very fast and eye-candy.

I got a Android SD version working also on the same sd card, so when i boot i can choose between "boot WPH" and "boot ad sd"

its pretty cool :D

EDIT: Just to mention, i could unlock my windows phone to use the live services, and the microsoft consumer service gave me a activation code instantly :D
[HD2 General] webmice:
Not exactly a fair poll, as people who DO actually know and visit XDA-Developers would certainly have seen the success and stable Android running on HD2. It is only natural for them to try and eventually move to Android.

Market in WM6.5.1 is nothing comparing to Apple AppStore or Android Market.

WP7 ? someone call me when great apps are out there.

[HD2 General] rgr81:
I'm using WM6.5 Stock from HTC

tried Android and WP7 but moved back to WM6.5

I love the Sense Interface and need the functionality of WM6.5 for my work.

WP7 will get better for sure, but I need some basics like VPN and connect to hidden WLAN so I couldn't use WP7 for long.
[HD2 General] Johev:
Well I'm a long fan of WM 6.5 Custom Artemis ROM series, that guy should be hired by HTC as he did and still does wonders for the device.

Right now I tried the WP7 and I loved the simplicity and fast response of the interface, but it still needs a lot of work.

So after a week of using WP7 I want to try Android NAND before I go back to good old proven to work and still getting lots of updates Artemis ROM series.

I like the Malgdr option, and I would like if it would work with WM 6.5, as I would dual boot with Android.

Not a big fan of booting into one OS to be able to use the second one.

What's Rom..

Hi....

I have use stock Rom 6 month.... Now I use Artemis v.51 build, and it's run perfect,,,

WinMo 6.5 Energy ROM

Hi all,

HD2 with stock Orange ROM was disappointing (I found my old HTC Polaris more responsive).

I'm now using WinMO 6.5 Energy ROM and I like it very much. I'm also using Android on SD as a dualboot, and I like it alot, but what I love with WinMo is the easyness of copying/organizing files the way I want from my PC. And I have so much apps on WinMO also...

Haven't try WP7 yet but I will give it a try, although it seems a bit locked, but surprisingly many XDA users seem to love it !

So my vote goes to Custom WinMo 6.5 ROM, and all my thanks to NRGZ28 to make this possible.
