This might be of assistance. You should really post in the devices thread. THere are countless tutorials that will help one flash Android to their HD2 while still having WM on their phone.

Thanks for the reply. I am new here. I read somewhere that to change to android, must change radio version. also how to find out waht is my phone SPL version?

Thread on HD2 SD Android ROMs is here, there's a few nice one to choose from, my personal favorite (speed, reliability, good battery life) was AmeriCanAndroid (CM7 implementation for HD2) - probably most popular so far with 18k replies and 3M views,
should you decide to test it, all the necessary info in posts #1 and #2,

which rom is the best

i{m try to put any rom in my wizard but only 3 give me results the faria rom the mb rom and the core rom so tellme what is the best rom for wizard
in advance thx
How on earth are we meant to tell you what rom is the best?
Faria's and xplore rate highly, molski is also up there, at the moment im investigating mfrazzz's rom. It is a matter of personal preference, there is no definitive best rom because all wizard owners are recycling the same poo.
Im not flaming you but it would be nice if you pulled your socks up before you thought about posting a question such as this again.

1. Decide what programs you really want to use.
2. Decide what programs you really don't want to have.
3. Decide which base OS you want to run - stable or bleeding edge.
4. Pick the ROM's that are a close match to your choices in #1 & #2.
5. Read the entire posts for those ROMs, and decide from user feedback on which to use.
6. Try a few, get a feel for what works best for you. No rom is right for any one person. It just depends on what kind of base you want, and how much customization you want to do.
Best bet is to stick to the high profile roms, such as Faria's, Xplore, Crossbow Reloaded, etc... while you're checking things out. Test, test, test...
Then when you're ready, build your own
Is there a (mostly) complete list of released ROMs anywhere?
I'm having trouble learning what is the latest WM6 version is, seeing as some ROMs have a v10.2.xxx and some a 15.x.xxx and others a 6.2.xx. What on Earth do these version numbers mean?
Is there a thread I simply haven't found which explains this?

What features do you like?
What do you use your phone for?
What do YOU like?
No one can answer this question for you. You need to research each ROM and see if it has the features that you like. If you want to know what others are using then look at their signatures and you will see what they like. But that of course is no indication whatsoever that you will like it too.
All of the dedicated cookers on this site do outstanding work and each has their own style. There is no "best" ROM, they are all top notch in their own respects. Try them out, use them for a few days, see if they meet your needs.

I haven't looked at the Wizard WIKI lately because most of my focus has been on my Hermes of late. But at least for the Hermes there is a page that lists all available roms with links to the release threads and to the download sites and mirrors. If there isn't something like this for the Wizard you could always start this yourself with the information that you research and hopefully others will contribute and keep it going.

Linux and Android on Raphael

Since I run Linux systems at home I'm really interested in running it on my phones too. I kinda ordered my new phone since my TYTN is falling apart (does not synch thru USB anymore) so I can wait till late november for HTC to release their phone on Android.
So, do you think HTC will make an Android ROM for the Raphael? (or is there a big probability someone will cook it from another ROM)
I don't think they will do such a Android-ROM for Touch Pro as they will try to sell their new Android-Device. But since the Touch Pro has this Qualcomm-CPU, I hope Android will run on it - Again, made by some community-member, not HTC.
would somebody like to try booting linux on the raphael? I wonder if things will behave in the same way as on the diamond ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402002 )
in that thread, marbalon posted http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=104265&d=1218018832 a package with latest haret and a build for the halibut machine from the google git.
also you can replace the zImage in the diamond.zip with the zImage builds for vogue from dzo: for example http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/zImage
or try the kaiser kernel http://linuxtogo.org/~lgorris/kaiser-bootkit/zImage.bin
and report what happens. does haret get further than go go go? Which machine does it detect?
thanks
can a moderator move this to raphael rom development please?
I tried the bootkit for Diamond, the latest builds for the kaiser from igorris and also the latest build for vogue - but all hang up.
i will investigate a bit....
do they hang at 100% / Go Go Go? Do you see console output?

Done... and good luck!
As i wrote last time, i didn´t get running the kernel for Kaiser (Latest Build) and Vogue (Latest Build).
Now it seems that the problem is or at least could be related to the storage card. It´s a common problem that sdhc-cards over 4gb won´t work as a android drive. so maybe anyone can try it with a card that fit the needs - i have only a 8gb model?
Good Luck and post every result!
I have tried vogue version on my raphael but it hangs on booting linux... 100% and i it hangs every time.
files are on phone not on sd card.

It is not a big surprise, because Raphael has a different CPU.

We need the G1 kernel source, and modules (if there would be some closed-source drivers). I have documented many (most?) MSM gpios,
the DRAM config is known too. I'm researching the Hitachi LCD setup
because G1 has a different panel, so it will be necessary to modify
the init/suspend routines.

Totally agree.
wm is the best mobile os at the moment unfortunately (if android is not counted), nokia's symbian just plainly.. eh, stinks. and so on.
Android would be really nice, waiting for it to raphael, even as a flashable rom! That would be so awesome! (we dont need WM to flash, it works straight from the bootloader, so why not!)

What is the latest Manilla ROM for HTC Touch PRO?

Hi there!
I need a working ROM for my HTC Touch Pro.
I found one (hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470164) but that one was posted in 2007 so the download file is long gone from the internet! It was a ROM with a Stock market tab in FT3D.
I've read the rules and the Wiki but still I can't find what I'm looking for on this forum because of the many ROM's people have made! Don't get me wrong: I think that's great but I need help locating the right manilla that can be downloaded! Or point me in the direction were to look!
Thanks for your help! and greetingz from Holland
Mike
Er...
Well the latest is Manila 2.5 or sense 2.5 w/e you want to call it.
Most of the roms offer one or the other.
perrsonally i recommend energy rom... they're wonderful.
Leo version is slow but pretty
Pheonix two is strong.

Oké! Thanks for your replay. I've read somewere that manilla 2.6 is still in beta?
I know (from the wiki) that I have a HTC "Raphael" (touch pro...duh! ) but I see a lot of ROM's for the Diamond and pro 2 aswell! Do they all work fine on the Touch pro to? As a newbie I don't know were to look for when I'm looking for a ROM.
Can I create a ROM of my one? What need I to do that? I know my way around Paint Shop Pro but not around programming like in C++.
Manila (aka SenseUI)
Newer versions of Manila may require that you use a WinMO 6.5 custom ROM as HTC released the new 2.x versions of Manila (aka Sense) on devices that sported WinMO 6.5.
Additionally, some of the recent Manila releases (ex: 2.5, 2.6) may be versions obtained from dev/test ROM source. If you're after stability or rely on your device, this may not be preferable.
Custom ROM's
There are several customs available ... some chefs even release different ROM streams. In many cases, custom ROM's will also contain recent application updates. If you're after stability or rely on your device, once again this may not be preferable.
Custom ROM's are usually specific to devices. For example, if you own a Raphael GSM device, you only flash custom ROM that are Raphael GSM specific. Flashing custom ROM's from a different device or CDMA may permanently damage your device.
Kitchen (DIY Custom ROM)
Building a custom ROM has become much simpler. Many chefs who have moved onto another mobile device will often release a final ROM as well as the kitchen they use to prepare the ROM ... this serves as a great starting point.
Additionally, there are many tutorials available on how to use kitchens floating around the forum.
Lastly, moderators typically close threads requesting "What's The Best ROM" as selecting a custom ROM is like choosing a vehicle, house, partner ... it's all about personal preference. And from past experiences, these types of threads usually get out of control pretty quick. So, to avoid having a thread that you start closed, it is best to avoid "What's The Best ROM" discussions.
HTH,
OH..........sorry!
Don't want to upset the moderators!
Then I have just one final question:
Is there on this forum-part a topic with a standard ROM with instruction on how to customize it? Or can I find those things in the Wiki?
I would like to contribute to theme's or even a Dutch ROM.
I only need to know/learn how to do that! Can someone give me a link to some documentation and files/programs to use?
Thanks!

AFAIK, there isn't a "Generic" ROM with customization tips. What most members do is download a kitchen and post any customization related question in the corresponding kitchen thread.

[Q] Is HD2 Rom Dual booting possible?

I just read in the XDA Portal that someone found a way to dual boot between two different Android Roms on one phone and ,well...i was wondering if this is possible with Windows. i have Miri N Dinik's Rom right now but say i wanted to try out Energy's Rom too...but keep my previous Rom. Is that doable or is there something special in Android phones that makes it possible?

Thread moved to Q&A
To answer your question no its not possible to dual boot between 2 WinMo Roms. Android runs of partitions so you can install an Android Rom on different partitions and then select which partition to boot from. WinMo doesnt work like that.

thanks.. maybe after studying this we might get an idea (and possibly try out) wm6.5 flashing through magldr (i would check it out, but bogged down by school stuff currently)
I have done a little thinking, and i think i know how the wp7 thing actually works..
the spl and radio (and splash i think) are somewhat emulated (you notice this as when ur booting wp7 and hold down the bottom volume button itself, the spl/bootloader comes up which as i have noticed is not the normal 2.08 hardspl that we use on hd2..
and if you look into the radio version, it isnt actually the hd2 one.
if the above is actually true, then we could emulate hspl 3.03 + hd2 leo rom (leo S 3.14) with its stock radio and actually get the full ram that was missing
worth a shot, right?

Downgrade to a 2.08 SPL or less with an official rom, then flash the hard SPL 2.08 and radio 2.15. Otherwise you won't be able to flash MAGDLR 1.12.
Could we make a WP7 ROM with Chevronwp7 and all tweaks i cooked in?

Yes. I find same thing. LEO1000 is emulated and is in one of the partxx.bin(s). What about talking to it via a mtty - this simulated spl? And any move on the filesystem or device provisioning partition? Would be great to compare non-activated leo wp7 with ACTIVATED and get pv key or more to point put in a key to this dump and reflash with dwi so our self-signed-FFU/RRU key is on device and allows us to flash whatever we wish.
What was used to make this [DUMP] and is Cotulla's wp7-hd2 spl available as .nb etc or anyone worked this one out yet?
what's copyright and dcma (reverse engineering) technicality here lol?
G-ThGraf said:

Click to expand...

More to point - can we compare the two different: pre-activated and activated?
Cotulla and DFT release was prior to (just) activation hack. Maybe once we have filesystem access and can read sd card main partition that is made on first boot we can see pv-key for device/live. But for kitchen etc it comes down more to more to .ffu (full flush update) and being able to put a key on device and self-sign a flash update that will stick and stay there so this is where I think energy should be put. If leo70 can be put on device then surely and key for an RUU can be put in with it. or even in that LEO1000 wp7 hd2 spl to allow ffu/ruu with whatever self-injected key. I think Da_G has already done partition and bldr work here.
Any thoughts? What was used to make this [DUMP] and is Cotulla's wp7-hd2 spl available as .nb etc or anyone worked this one out yet?
Eventually, of course: with this dump here people will be disassembling and prying it apart. so......... like everything on the net etc it will be cracked and hacked and re-made.
For the record: I have JTAG and trace and everything else so am prepared to take risk of 'bricking' (if that is even possible) and will take suggestions or requests if ppl have good ideas but can not or will not try for whatever reason: I have been working on leo70+magldr reverse engineering since just before public release: just pm me and I will do.

Anyone use trivial ftp for FUU? anyone called these DLLs or used/moded these keys?
also: per Da_G partition layout and comments for wp7 hard spl: for FFU/RUU: is it serial or usb/kitl/ethernet?
I think injecting a certificate into leo70 and rebuilding dump up will then allow an ffu to be flashed; debugging this then leads to a lot; hspl, kitchen, new roms.
