Alternative Market
Think it might have been Omarket available via FreewarePocketPC.net
Have that on my HD2 and offers some good (free) alternatives.

If you are looking for apps for Windows Mobile 6.5 you are in the wrong place. This is the WP7 forum. Look HERE instead.

tattoo apps compatibility??? :(

hi, i am going to buy htc tattoo in 2 days time. before that i need to know whether i have plenty of apps alternative to windows mobile apps.
i also heard that its a qvga screen, so developers have to sign it to get it working on tattoo (240x320 qvga screen). is that true that we may expect good number of apps for this device??? by the grace of developers showing interest in developing apps & games for qvga screen(old mobile screen)... ????
will it be future proof ???? i am also not sure about the availability of upgrade to android 2.0 from 1.6. can anyone reply to these messages???
waiting for ur responses.... if i wanna install any application on htc tattoo, where do i get the apps & how do i install it???? like is it like just clicking on exe files as in windows???? or is there any special way how i should install apps & games????
i know it may sound like a noob talk. but what to do, i am totally new to this android thing..... no idea on how to get it started & know more about it, android & its different versions of OS..... kindly throw some light on where to get all information about it & its uses over windows mobile.... in simple & detailed manner.....
detailed information is highly appreciated...... thanks
I switched from a WM HTC Diamond to the cheaper HTC Tattoo and find it quicker, and with more apps!
But it might be useful for you to tell us what apps you want/use already, and we can say whether or not they are on Tattoo.
As for 2.0 who knows, talk is it should eventually get the upgrade but not exactly high priority,
Info
I have also switched from HTC Diamond to Tattoo. I know that Tattoo is cheaper but I like it more.
To install .apk you can use HTC Sync. After synchronization you can find on main screen HTC Sync :Application Installer and you can use it for install any application.
You can use ASTRO file manager to install .apk from Tattoo
There is no problem with APPS, I already have installed even AndNav2, and There is a lot of software in the market. Something that Diamond doesnt have
This phone beat the Diamond with performance, software,easy to use and price, but not with the display resolution.
how about upgrading android 1.6 to 2.1 on htc tattoo ??? any ROM available yet??? i wanna try that version of android OS on my htc tattoo.... any input about its guide would be appreciated.....
@kashish, where r u from buddy??? u just vanished after u asked me a question??? fine... i wanna know if 3G is launcehd in India, can i use it with my tattoo with firmware update??? ur reply is highly appreciated pls....
Hey guys, I need some assistance here. I bought a Tattoo and believe me I love it - even coming from higher-end Android phones, the problem is that mine is apparently a Malaysian variant and there is no ANDROID MARKET as such - only SLIDE ME. I am not sure of the difference in availability off apps between the two, but I have heard there are only 25% of the usual apps on SLIDE ME as compared to ANDROID MARKET. Anyway, my main issue here is that I cannot get any Instant Messenger apps like Agile Messenger or doc viewers like Adobe, Quickoffice or Documents To Go. Are these available (even in paid form) for the Tattoo? I love this little phone and it is super-fast - but I NEED these apps on the Tattoo. Anyone able to shed some light for me?

Right now, I think only BSNL or MTNL provides 3G service. I just activated Vodafone's EDGE service, known as Vodafone Mobile Connect, and it works just fine with my Tattoo. GPS, Twitter, Facebook updates... all work just fine. I do hope that when more operators start providing 3G service, HTC releases an update to enable 3G. I am pretty sure that it's a software limitation and not a hardware limitation.

Documents To Go is available.
Oh really? I will check that out on SlideMe and hopefully that is the case!
i wanna know how i can convert cab files to apk file.... because i can see swype application for windows mobiles being available in 4shared, but no swype apk file anywhere on the net.....
i request here, is there anyone who knows how to convert cab to apk ???? i know it may sound silly.... but i am a noob here. i also understand that it needs to be coded and all stuff.... but as i said before, i wanna know how to do it step by step..... please......
OK -Documents To Go IS indeed available for the Tattoo users out there! Looking for a good IM app next!
Meebo's a pretty good IM app. Give it a try. Available on Market.

Really???
I myself are still doubt. about 4 hours ago, i managed to get my hand on a BB app suite cab. tried to install on my elfin, and it said something like "oem is not supported 'htc-elf'". while at that momment, i'm using the official rom from the htc site. out on curiosity i tried the 'setmodelID.exe' method i read on touch hd2. still having the same error message.
flashed my elfin with athar's, repeat the step, same. but i do manage to have the bb connect up and running on both roms.
IMHO, if somehow we can decieve the cab that our device is not elf, perhaps it would install. running the app suite is another thing.
i was actually just want the BBM thing. but i have no clue on what should i do next. hope someone here can port the suite to work on elf. it should be good. or atleast only the BBM. ^_^
anyway i'm using the ce-rom now. was liking it until i realized 'IT HAS NO OTHER Input Method other than qwerty keyboard.' can someone kindly enough to point me how to put the defaults input method like the original rom from htc?
thanks. i know i didn't help alot. sorry bout that
No you can't have BB OS, but you can have a half-decent version of Android working on the Elf/Elfin.

Hi Nick,
I'm guessing you are using the bundled Opera 9.7 to browse these sites?
If so, the Flash 3.1 for Opera (I got it from the X1 forum) seems to work for a lot of the sites on my HD2, but there again, I use Skyfire now anyway.

hi nick, flash support for hd 2 has been dropped. it was going to be upgraded, there was even a vid done by the official guys showing the soon to be released version working on our phone playing internet videos and playing flash games but its all been dropped in favour of the new windows 7 phones. sorry to be the one to give you the bad news bud.

Non flashed hd2 What programs/app do you love to use?

Hi all.
I was a bit reluctant to start this thread but as I was getting nowhere I thought I needed to and I'm sorry if there are other threads out there similar to this and if it upsets you i wanna say that was not my intention.
Great forum, I'm sure everyone appreaciates every little effort that's goes into this project so thanks for your hard work..
I am new to the htc hd2/winmo and I'm glad I have chosen this over the iphone. I have been a big fan of nokia/symbian o/s devices
As i have had my hd2 a week now - i have only upgraded it to the official 1.72 tmobile rom frOm the htc site. I want to stay away from flashing hd2 for the timebeing as I want to experience the hd2 as it is.. I'm all in favour of flashed/cooked Roms so I'm confident I will eventually
i just want to ask can someone guide me or give me a list of programs/ applications preferably foc (not marketplace) I can install onto my hd2 as I'm abit confused whether most programs need a customed hd2 prior to installing?
And Also are the below programs suitable for this? I have used the search function before some says.
Bsb tweaks
Cookies tab editor
Tcpmp player
Resco/ total commander file explorers and registry editors
.net compact framework 3.5
Skyfire
I would be grateful if someone can take some time out to answer what programs/apps you use and if they will work for a non custom hd2
Many thanks in advance.

No you don't need a custom ROM to use applications.
All those programs will work fine.
Google freeware pocket pc on your phone, then download Omarket to your phone, then you will have plenty of apps with reviews to choose from.
If you dont like one all you have to do is un-install.

I hope someone posts a video on how to do it
Sent from my Android HD2 using XDA App
can some one walk me through a noob guide to get my tmoblie hd2 to have wp7 on it?
its an original hd2 without new rom or anything installed... kinda confused when trying to get spl 1.42.0000 on it to get hspl to get the newest radio on my phone before i can do anything...
thank a bunch
Disappointed...
Well, looking for a way to get back to good-old WM 6.5. Can I reflash with WM 6.5 cooked ROM? I've installed WP7 and I can't do squat with it. It's like an iPhone... locked. There is no tethering so I can't share my connection with my laptop. No file manager - everything is dependent on LIVE and you can't boot Andriod.
i've checked and it's worked well on my phone....easy to flash the rom.thx to DFT
where is the link....or Rom...or pictures?
lol so yea post is looking a little empty
I've tried it last night. Unsuccessfull flasded on TMOUS HD2 (
there is nothing there, what gives?
So Android or wm7 .... I think it will be fun but android will be a better OS

Where is the link from yesterday?
Good thing I downloaded all the files yesterday
Wp7 I soo easy to navigate thru best windows far better than band Android driod look so poorly develop
HELP!!!
Anyone know how to get back to WM6.5?
WM7 works great, but lacks WiFi-Router, Flash browser, direct SD access from Windows Explorer for file transfer, Live doesn't work yet and you can't add any applications to it. Don't try it until they get the Live connection working or MS decides to allow free access to marketplace without restrictions.

sorry for the double post.

Is the HD2 the first device to run the most mobile OSs?
