Noob issues - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Hello guys I've always wanted an HD2 to try out all the coolness and now I got one and I'm totally lost lol. I bought it off the xda marketplace and the Guy already has maglar or whatever that thing is called and its on windows phone but its on 7.0.
Btw I don't have the T-Mobile version or the European version. I have the rare telestra version from Australia. If that matters.
I don't know what rom I'm on but under settings it has a help contacts website and its HTTP://WWW.mpx.Gen.tr
It takes me to some foreign language forum.
What I'm asking someone on here is how do I get on a newer popular rom on xda

Hi,
I think the best You can do is to read some tutorials here on XDA - i bought HD2 and didnt know anything about roms and such - but if You spend some time on reading stuff here You can choose something for Yourself.
I have gone from win 6.5 which is ofcourse a build-in OS for HD2, through Android 2.3, then ICS 4.0 and now i have WP7.5.
There was a moments when i though that my phone will be a brick-like device so my advice is: read - and read carefully.
go step by step tutorials - if You dont know something there is answer somewhere here - i know becouse i was in the same place as You are HD2 and noob bout roms (still i am
so pick an OS for Yourself - read tutorial and thats all the magic there is about it

Do a search!
Guys, no need to be mean...
@asterixhashir
If you want official WinMo ROM you can download it directly from HTC website, Radio is included.
The Android version you are looking for it is called NexusHD2 v2.7. It is very stable and compiled from source of Nexus One.
I'm ok to explain smth to a man who just don't understand how things work. He should try first.
BTW see the name of the thread. He didn't bother reading any rooles.

If website say that it not a ROM for your telephone then you are doing something wrong.
Make sure you select the right phone from list in htc website or that you enter the right code number.
You can not have both installed in NAND. You can find NexusHD2 if you just search. If you want to have both install WinMo and find an SD Android version to put in your SDcard.
It is not easy for us to explain you in 1 post what we have learned by reading countless times the threads here.
If you can't find any solution by yourself then try finding some friend of yours who understand better and help you.
Else you can always find someone to pay to fix your device.
Without wishing to appear rude it is a tad difficult to understand you.
Ii believe you are unable to download the correct official rom for your device. this is sometimes the case that your serial number is not accepted by htc as they offer different roms for different carriers.
try getting YOUR official rom off of this thread. good luck.

There are no tmous roms on HTC site at all. Only on T-Mobile.com, and it will ask for your IMEI not serial.
yeah i have flashed from tmobile site bt it is not that much smooth

that is why this site offers custom roms.
Am I the only one who thinks this dude is a troll?
i dont no more abt this phone bcz i m using for 3 to 4 months ok and i m not always bzy in these kinds of things ..tel me where can i find the official rom not the custom one ok and tell m eabt the best andriod sd rom for hd2
asterixhashir < you can flash back to the original rom that was intended for your hd2.
don't mess around with android roms if you don't know how to do your own homework.
download the the original rom for your t-mobile hd2 and open the exe file with winrar - extract the file "RUU_signed.nbh" and rename it "leoimg.nbh" - copy this file to the root of your sd card - restart your phone while holding on to the volume down button - then follow the steps and your back home with windows mobile. - then you can sell your hd2 and buy a android phone.

I guess you dont wanna use the search function here, so google these things
1. HD2 SPL Downgrade (If Applicable)
2. Hard SPL2
3. Magldr HD2 install
4. CWM for Magldr install
5. Install Android ROM on HD2
Good luck my digital brother

i think this post is really what you should take a look at. its very detailed and should give you all the info & software you'll need to install android to your nand. it is written so that anyone can understand and in simple terms.
then after you install Android a good question to ask your friend would be does he want a sence rom or something else. this website here is the easiest way to search for Android ROMs that are listed here on XDA. i would also click "show all android roms/builds" because there are a lot of older ROMs that are still as great or better then some of the newer ROMs out there. i could suggest some but im sure what i like may differ from your friends so i would take a close look at each ROM from the site listed above. to shorten the list down some for you i probably wouldn't look at ROMs that haven't been updated since like april.
His choices in ROMs would be sence based, a non-sence based like cyanogen or a miui based ROM similar to that of the iphone but with widgets.
unlocking a phone refers to sim unlocking where as rooting a phone refers to gain root/superuser access what is what your trying to do.

Hey you can unlock your HTC HD2 using the codes. There are many providers offer this unlocking service.If you need,get it from http://www.unlocking4u.com/ ..After getting the code, you may follow the instructions here,
1. Switch ON your HTC HD2 with a Not ACCEPTED SIM Card.
2. If your HTC HD2 asks for a PIN code, then enter your SIM card PIN and press OK.
3. HTC HD2 will ask to enter an "unlock code".
4. Enter Unlock Code we send to you.
5. Your HTC HD2 is now unlocked.
*NOT ACCEPTED : We mean, to use a Sim card from a network other than the network your HTC HD2 is locked to. .

1. Don't bring back old threads which have already been solved unless you are asking a similar question and that thread is the best place to ask it.
2. Did you even read his post? He used the word 'unlock' incorrectly, he meant to ask how to flash Android.

Numpty guide to Upgrading

Hi, I am not a technical dude but I want to find a numpty's guide on upgrading my HTC HD2 Windows 6.5 to Android. Its on Virgin at the moment and about 2 years old.
I have looked over xda and everything seems so complicated. I fouind some files last week and followed the instructions and almost screwed my phone cos I wasn't sure if there were steps missing, etc
Therefore can anyone just provide the files I need in one single post with a real beginner's guide (step-by-step) on what to do? Pref on the phone itself instead of the SD card.
Alternatively, if there's anyone in the Birmingham area in the UK who'll do it for a fiver let me know.
Thanks

Well, you should try some reading, the guide is very descriptive and it's pointless for me to try and explain it to you without you trying to understand it yourself first Try searching for a user called T-Macgnolia (I think) who has a comprehensive guide to HSPL, CWM, CLK, Radio, MAGLDR etc just look in his signature
Search ' HD2 toolkit ' Its a all in one package for task29 (which is wiping all data from your phone) cLk & magldr ( both of these are boot loaders) and cwm (this is the easiest and most used method for installing an actual rom to your phone, but the two things i mentioned come first) , and its fairly simple. After that just pick a rom in the nand section .

CM7 Install.....confused

Hi all. I have searched and searched the forum and been reading numerious posts over the last few weeks and have ended up more confused than ever.
I am fed up with the standard froyo on my uk vodafone defy and want something better. I read good things about cm7 and would like to give it a try, however I am not very technical when it comes to such things, I have found various guides all of which differ, the main cm7 thread on here does not seem to lead me to a download link.
Can anyone help?? idiots guide maybe......
what cm7 do I download and where and how to install.
I really have tried to understand some of the posts but will admit to some of it going straight over my head.
regards
Mark
Is your phone rooted already? If so, do you have Clockwork Mod recovery? If not, you have to have that done before flashing a new ROM. If you do a search for the Defy youll find info on how to perform these operations... Cheers

Hi there! Please watch carefully this video :

As a suggestion, make sure you have your battery over 80% before starting the process and download all these and put them on your SD Card :
Download SuperOneClick to root here: http://goo.gl/xk0AH
Defy Sndinit apk: http://goo.gl/5P89P
Download the ROM itself: http://goo.gl/XyfLE

Oh, and don't forget to install all defy drivers on your PC BEFORE! Good luck !

[Q] how to change ROM on HTC HD2

so i got an HD2 device i'v just recived.
its currently working with the windows rom i belive,
i really dont like this rom, it does not support my home langugage (hebrew),and it is quit complicated.
as it seems i am new to the HTC devices and i am here to ask for help as an HTC noob,
i want to change my rom to an android rom wich will support all the things i need like music,apps (whatsapp,facebook,games and any kind of application that a smartphone should be able to run), camera, videos and more,
i found lots of roms here and guids, but as an noob those guides are really not understandable and really make my head hurt, lol.
could some one explain to me step by step how to make my lame windows phone to an modern awesome android phone?
thanks very much, yoni.

Please read the guide in my sig that says 'a guide to all of the terms for the HD2', it has everything you need to know about this sort of stuff. After that either use mengfei's guide or the second guide in my sig which explains the flashing process.
