Yeah… I like MIUI Android ROM for HTC HD2. It turns my HTC HD2 into iPhone. Well, it has iPhone style interface. MIUI Android ROM was designed for Google Nexus One and HTC Desire and in Chinese. But XDA developer, domineus ported it as English for HTC HD2. It is based on EVO Kernel and using CyanogenMod on FroYo 2.2.1. Beta testing is in progress. So do expect bugs from time to time…
Issues that I faced… 3G data connection is not working. Time zone cannot be selected (known issue but can be fixed with TimeZone Changer from Market [thanks to uptown]). Can’t wait for the next release as this build is cool. Interface is lot better than other CM6 build out there.

Jayce, you have been using both iPhone and android. Do you think iphone GUI is responsive and less lagging as compared to Android? I”m just wondering…
Compare Android on HTC HD2 (not actual Android phone) and iPhone 4, iPhone GUI response is faster. Maybe due to less animation.
Have you tried the actual Android phone before? How is that compare to iPhone? I have impression that iPhone is better (in terms of GUI respond).
Nope.
hi Jayce,
i got a friend who bough his HD2 in US and are back in penang. he has flash his radio with custom one. being using it few weeks. But now he was unable to boot into windows. no matter how he do , it will not boot up. It will hang in the 3 color bar ( red….) do you have any recovery stuff that would help him to settle this? thank you
Try hard reset it first. If still cannot, flash a new Windows Mobile ROM.
Jayce,
he had tried the 2 method already. Guess there is nothing else to do ??
Failed to flash custom WinMo ROM? Does it has hardSPL installed?
yes done already, use original one also cannot. seems crash the whole phone already. So the only way i think is to install from memory card? but he do not know how to do it anymore.
Try Flashing Via MicroSD Card in this post – http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
Dear Jayce,
Found a solution to change time zone.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/timezone-changer/com.futurek.android.tzc
I nearly gave up MIUI after it mess up with my calendar time because of time zone bugs.
after applying this software, i am good to go with MIUI.
I never had 3G data connection problem. The only thing i noticed is the “H” sign did not show up when connecting to hsdpa.
Cool… Going to try TimeZone Changer later.

Thanks for the info. My mistake. Celcom 3G is working now. Might be connection issue during my testing last time. 😛
Opps! sorry duplicated!Kindly delete. thanks
So far this is the best build that i have used. I hope it remains stable. I have tried a few and they are all better then win mo, but this one seems to take the cake! Good Job!
Yes I have this on my psp as well, it turn your psp into an phone. Really great app for using mobile phone as a game unit.Why buy a xox or a wii as yoyr htc hd2 can be that all in your hand. It occurred to me that htc is much much better than iphone. Because iphone is just well..if you want more like a pc in your hand yoyushould buy a htc. My sun has one and he say it’s a rackka-tacka-machine and I can hear him scraming: ‘I luuuf you momma, this thang is biaaatch slappin’haaad core!” So now you know from a prohibited and loving mum!
Cheers! Love and regards
