Here is another HTC Desire HD build from xda-developer, gauner1986. Desire HD ROMs are very space hungry but this build still have 184MB of storage space available for your user files. It is based on the latest version of Desire HD Sense FRG83D (very close to stock) ~ Android 2.2.1 Froyo, gauner1986 own kernel with SMARTASS and INTERACTIVE governors. And RMNET enabled by default.
NAND Android on HTC HD2 cannot work without the help of DFT LEO MAGLDR Bootloader. It is a 2011 New Year Gift from DFT. MAGLDR Bootloader can load Android from SD card, Android from NAND and even Windows Phone 7 from NAND (when it comes out). It even has Tetris game loaded. Besides, you can turn SD card as USB Drive directly without entering any OS. Thanks to DFT for this wonderful gift.
Love iPhone 4 so much but don’t have money to buy one? Try out Jaws-MIUI NAND Android ROM and turn your HTC HD2 into iPhone 4. MIUI is another great mod besides CyanogenMod. I like its Theme Manager, MIUI Music, Miren Browser… More stuffs and enhancements will be added in the future. It is based on Android 2.2.1 Froyo, MIUI 31-12 and using Hastarin 8.6 oldcam by tytung Kernel.
One of the main issue of NAND Android build ~ lack of internal storage space. Most of the builds have only 150MB to 200MB left on NAND memory. So we need to manually move the application + data into SD card ourselves. But this changed now, there are several NAND Android builds are using DATA.IMG at SD card to act as internal storage. Further more, you can increase the image size to match your large SD card. Sooner or later most of the NAND Android builds will use this kind of method.
I tried RAFDROID HD v1.0, imilkas` HD2Z v0.1 and FutureShocks MIUI v1. RAFDROID HD is slow, imilkas` HD2Z can’t be rooted, and only FutureShocks MIUI passed my test. FutureShocks MIUI is based on Android 2.2.1 Froyo, MIUI 31-12 and using prj v0.3 Kernel. Default language is German but you can change to English during phone setup.
It is hard to get a fast HTC Desire HD Android ROM for HTC HD2. I tried AF403 DesireHD and RAFDROID HD. Both of them are slow but this Raidroid HD Sense build is fast. Its speed is the same as gauner1986′s HD-FI NAND build but it is based on ClockworkMod Recovery. It is based on Android 2.2.1 Froyo (Latest HTC Desire HD WWE 1.72.405.6) and using custom kernel. It is a nice one to install on your phone…
