XDA Developer, boyppc has lot of good Android builds for HTC HD2. They are CM7 Sense.s, CM7 HoneyComB, MIUI, Desire HD and HTC Sense 2.1 & 3.0 builds. Most of them are updated to the latest Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread except HTC builds. I took Ginger 2.3.4 HoneyComB as testing. And Google Talk with video and voice chats is working. Be sure to check out XDA website for other builds.
Yeah… Thanks to XDA Developer, tytung. We can have AGPS feature on Android HTC HD2 now in his latest project ~ GPS Libraries for HD2 Gingerbread. It should work on Android Froyo and Gingerbread. I tested with TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 Nightly v3.3.6 which comes with tytung’s GPS lib v1.2. The result… I am getting faster GPS lock with PAPAGO! navigation. And I can even get GPS lock in my room where cannot get a lock previously. WOW!
Windows Mobile 6.5 is not the only operating system for HTC HD2. We can run Android on HTC HD2 (almost perfect) too. Not to mention Ubuntu, Windows 95/98 (not perfect yet). HTC HD2 is a legend powerful mobile phone. Here are the top 10 tips, tweaks and hacks for Android HTC HD2.
Calibrate your phone battery when you think it’s miscalibrated. NéMa developed a Battery Calibration tool for Android. It will help to delete existing batterystats.bin system file. Personally, I do not calibrate battery after flashing new Android ROM but some said it really help to improve their phone battery life. No harm to try it right? It might help to improve yours too.
Do you know how do CM7 + Sense look like? Well, you can see it for yourself with BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA GINGER-SENSE_S NAND Android ROM. It combines both of the wonderful worlds into one. Basically, it is CyanogenMod 7 ROM + LauncherPro Sense UI. There are People, Bookmarks, Calendar, Messaging, Twitter, Facebook, Friends and Gmail LauncherPro Sense Widgets to choose. A nice combination for those wants HTC Sense look and CM7 performance.
