HTC HD2 is still the best smartphone from HTC. Yes, developers are not letting it go yet. And here you are ~ latest Android 4.4 KitKat ROM for HTC HD2. It is still a test version but I am sure that it will be improved day by day. Android 4.4 KitKat is designed to support low end smartphone with less RAM such as 512MB RAM. So HTC HD2 will be benefit from it. Hopefully, you don’t need to wait that long to get a fully working version KitKat ROM for HTC HD2.
Love to try custom Android ROM? CyanogenMod makes a special tool for you to ease the job. Yes, CyanogenMod Installer will help you to install CM ROM in easy step by step way. No root access is need. No need to unlock bootloader as well. Only stock firmware / ROM is needed as long as your Android devices are in supported list. Lot of the popular devices like Google Nexus series – Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 7 (2012 & 2013) and Nexus 10, Samsung Galaxy series like Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note and Note 2, and finally HTC One. I am sure that more devices will be included soon.
Finally, my Samsung Galaxy S3 was upgraded to latest Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean XXUFME7 Firmware. Of course, I am using custom ROM like Android Revolution HD 32.0. Not going back to stock firmware anymore after you tasted the custom ROM advantages, speed improvement, extra features… As expected, there are several Galaxy S4 goodies in XXUFME7 firmware like multiple widgets, two unlock effects (ripple and light), new screen modes ~ Adapt Display and Professional Photo. Check out below video to find out the smoothness. Yeah…
Android is the most active OS on HTC HD2 right now. Yes, developers are still cooking ROM for 4 years old HTC HD2. So all the HTC HD2 users can enjoy the latest and greatest Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean on HTC HD2. NexusHD2 is one of my favourite ROM on HTC HD2 which cooked by XDA Developer, tytung. NexusHD2 JellyBean CM10.1 ROM is the latest one. It is based on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean (JDQ39) ~ CyanogenMod 10.1 and using htcleo-2.6.32 kernel. It includes CM10.1 features like Enhanced Power Menu with Reboot and Screenshot options, Power Notification Widget, Trebuchet Launcher, T9 Dialer, Keep app back button in Developer options and Theme. All Google Apps are included like Google Now. Rooted, Superuser, su and busybox are added too. It also supports hardware acceleration like hardware video decoding (720p video playback). And more other goodies…
Windows Phone is not my cup of tea. Well, it still can’t impress me. Still lack of apps and games when compare to iOS and Android. Maybe I will back to Windows when Microsoft combines both Windows for desktop and phone into one OS. Until then, Android is still my top choice. But this may not apply to some of you, just me. So there are Windows Phone 7.8 ROMs (still no public WP8 ROM yet) for HTC HD2. Pdaimatejam ROM is based on WP7.8 OS 7.10.8862.144. Basically, it is ported from Nokia Lumia 900. So you can see Nokia applications (Nokia Drive, Maps, Music) and features there. Windows Phone is all from Nokia mainly now, right? And the very important stuff ~ it has automatic activation code for Windows Live.
