I read this on Engadget, I take my hat off to the devs.
Remember when we got WP7, going through the whole mission of getting it activated. Getting Ubuntu to fully boot for the first time, getting ICS before anyone in the world (albeit nothing at all worked apart from it turned on for 30secs has hardware buttons didnt work).
The devs here are just from another world! Thank you all for the work you have done for this device (when I had it and for the people who are still running it!)

Too bad the Metro Apps won't run on this because of the screen resolution requirement. or do they?

HD2 will never die, thanks to Cotulla and other devs who are really put all their knowledge to save this device from forgetting...
Hope to see RT soon on my phone too

Right, but if somebody could hack the software it could be run even if the resolution is too small as Cotulla said.
Let`s wait and see

i hope works like wp 7.5 soon

This is truly the little phone that could. After 3 years, I still love my HD2

This phone is the best ever!!! I can't stop flashing all the different roms ^_^

Yeah. Hd2 never dies..

i'm very happy have this hh...

Hello EveryOne ... I Don't Like To Give Bad Feelings But I Think DFT Has Left Our HD2 ( As Cotulla Said ) So No Matters Having The RT Boot Or Not Because I Don't Think Cotulla Would Release The UEFI Magldr ... I Think Its Bad To Look After Cotulla For Releases ... I Think If The Masters Make A Big Team And Work On a New Boot Loader It Would Be Also Better Than Cotulla ... Then We Can Change It Into What We Like ... Like Open Source Bootloaders ... Then We Would Get More Often And Also More ROMs And The Newer Ones ... Like Sense 5 , RT , WPH 8 , Ubuntu , MeeGo , ... I Would Be Glad To Know About Others Ideas ...
With Best Wishes

Is this Windows Mobile 7?

I found this news on wmpoweruser.com.

I really doubt that is Windows 7 (unrelated : isn't it weird how the desktop version and the mobile version now have the same name? )
And after reading the comments on the other thread I seriously doubt that wm7 will be released this year:
1) they're still working on wm6.5
2) releasing wm7 so close after wm6.5 would be ummm....counterproductive?
Until we find something on the internet really identifying it as WM7, I'm a skeptic.
microsoft has already said that wm7 wont be out till next year (prob march/april) its only developers that get it in november i think
Yes, actually that does look like WM7. A while ago a large number of concept screen shots came out. The credibility of those screen shot and the story behind it could be debated. But IMO sure evidence came in the form that in a MS live mesh commercial there was a brief shot of an HTC touch running the exact UI that was leaked. This looks like that interface with a few tweaks/improvements. I am trying to find that original story.
*edit* not the story I was talking about but all the shots were like this one:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/blinx_182/3265548956/
*edit 2*
The first two pics are from the live mesh commercial. Note, WM7 is not really running on his device. They are screen shots. I was fooled at first. lol.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/blinx_182/
Here it is. The full story. Not the original site I saw it on but looks like the same pictures and text.
http://www.zakeh.com/2008/01/07/windows-mobile-7-details-leak-cool/
That UI was found on a WM device in a MS commercial. Evidence enough to me that at least at some point this is the direction MS was going. And I like it.
I think wm7 will change alot over the next year as they get feedback and see what every one else does.
This might be early code but still about 6 months till developers get it then another 5 months of changing as they get feedback from developer
My guess is no. Hell no.
It looks a bit crap, not to mention VGA (why would MS be developing a 2010 mobile OS in VGA?). I'm very sceptical.

Zune software on WM7??

Beauty is in the main of the holder. I prefere e.g. Dexter - TheDarkOne ROMs
This is just a theme. Go to WM 6.5 themes - [CAB] WP7UI, Standalone for WM6.5 ** the HOST **. It works great, by the way.

Wanting a Tinker Phone. What do you think.

I currently have a Nexus One and will not be replacing it.
what im hoping to find out is what is the best tinker phone around.
im thinking the HD2 is for me because it can run windows 6.5,hope soon to have windows 7 , android, meego, ubuntu and who knows what else.
so what do you think? what is your tinker toy (phone).
My Currnet Tinker toy dont laugh at me but its a Motorola Backflip running 2.1.
I think the HD2 is a good choice, you definitely can play with it a lot, I had one before getting a Nexus but I preferred just having a stable build rather than having to continuously update and find a good build with the HD2.

You can find more information Here Its pretty cool. Runs anything that can possibly be made for an ARM, 3G capabilities, Sim Card slot the whole deal .
The HD2 can run Windows Phone 7? I thought like one video was released and a public build was never posted?

Ubuntu for phones announcement

Today, Cannonical has announcement a version Ubuntu for phones. They can found more info here: http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/phone
The requesites are very similar to HD2. Will be posible portable to it?
hope so...
Sorry for my bad English. I just reading that link. Some of my friend say that the Ubuntu OS is base on Android Kernel so we totally can port it to our HD2 but the rom running on Galaxy Nexus just a demo rom that mean the need a lot of time to config. Ubuntu OS is currently in the development stage and finishing, according to the source before we have to wait until 2014. I think that time is too long for our HD2.
^
well you never can say, there are a lot of Dev's here that are even miles ahead of those manufacturers/ phone companies, all we have to do is wait & see.
I also noticed just yesterday in one 2nd hand site here in HK all the HD'2 where sold & at least 10 more people where looking for one.

I'm a NAND user on a LEO1024. Since Ubuntu phone will support android kernels and the drivers it will be quite simple to get the required files from tytung's repo and merge it into the OS.
As soon as it's released or leaked there will be a race for "FIRST"

I assure you there will not be and if you want it, you will have probably to do it yourself. It's not android, nobody wants that... yet.
Challenge accepted!

To be the first would be awesome. I'm ready for it
i am waiting for that
please release it fo hd2
A very interesting project! My HD2 is looking forward!
I think it will be fun.
would be good as an excercise, i suppose. as long as the support is there.
why would it be better than android?
in my experience with ubuntu on my laptop, anything i try to do always seems end up typing long lines of code in a terminal window
as someone once said "linux is free if your time is worthless"
been developing with the new SDK & its a freakin beast ! .....i eat ...sleep ...poop ..Ubuntu ...its so much fun
Ubuntu Phone OS is going to rule ....its just so awesome !

Visual Exploration ... Suru is born

So Guys ans Girls,
Let start the Visual Thread about Ubuntu Touch OS
drop your thoughts, your fear and your wishes about the Touch OS visual Experience
To start, here is a pic for the Exploration, the pic come from the Touch OS designer

Visual
Very good visual, cant wait to see it running on my device. :good:
And this Visual Design has a name : Suru ! welcome Suru
but let have a deep look, the phone picture is not the Galaxy Nexus as it used to be.
A hint to the new Hardware ?
Hardware
Maybe the Ubuntu phone to be released in autumn.
looks really great, calendar is a bit weird but whatever
i dont know why but that device looks like a Huawei to me
the os looks great, hopefully it performs well and gets the attention it deserves. though, in this market, that really depends on how many developers embrace the os and get the apps developed so it at least has a chance to succeed. allowing ios and android to get so big really causes problems for any newcomers due to the fact that there are already thousands of apps for both platforms which are now relatively stable, bug-free and full of features, and no one nowadays wants a phone which doesn't have stable, fast apps for everything they want to do.
i think the ubuntu devs definitely got the design right, tho -- the design reminds me of something you'd see in android, but with a lot of the...ideas and practicality that lay behind windows phone, which imo is a better platform than either ios or android for a phone but unfortunately doesn't have the community and therefore the developers/apps to compete.
would definitely be great to see this platform take off so we have another big competitor in the mix!

Don't get your hopes up. The pictures above are nothing more than digital concepts, it's just an artist's impression of what a "new" ubuntu-related generic smartphone would look like.
