Guys shud i installed andriod 2.2 on my htc hd 2 ?

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-install-android-2-2-froyo-on-htc-hd2-easily/

 

Seems to be very easy, & also a strong rumor is up dat windows 7 wil be made available on htc hd2 though its hacked & out already but the process is very complicated for nowmal users to do it..

 

As mine is already unlocked shud i install andi or wait for win 7 or somtin? :unsure:

 

I've used an HD2 on froyo and it lags pretty bad. Win phone 7 mite work too since the HD7 is basically the same hardware underneath.

Err, no. The HD7 uses a 2nd gen Snapdragon while the HD2 uses the 1st if I'm not wrong. Different SoC altogether.

Same SoC. But hw configurations are pretty different. I wouldn't put it past a port though..

when i say hw change, it means changes in peripherals connected to the SoC, not within the SoC itself...that's why i said "hw configuration" because this leads to software only changes for the SoC to cater to them

Ah k..

 

@MT : If you take a closer look, the HTC models have the 2nd gen MSM Snapdragons, while all the other manufacturer's seem to have the 1st gen snapdragons(QSD). Guess this means that HD2 can get a WP7 port for itself. But this also means that the battery life and graphics peformance of the HTC phones will be better than the rest. (Assuming, taking a look at the specs)

Could be a typo on Engadget as I dont see any MSM8250 chipsets listed on the Qualcomm page. There's a 8255 and thats it.

First :chair:

 

Either go to a BSNL Shoppe (as they are called) franchise & get a new 3G sim (There's one @ Mahanagar near PNB) or simply get a BSNL 2G sim from those roadside BSNL vendors sitting under the umbrella. :P .. But after taking the 2G sim you will have to get it converted to 3G. And as far as my experience is concerned, the normal recharge shops have no f**king idea about 3G conversion/tariffs/services. You WILL need to visit a franchise (BSNL Shoppe) to get your work done. Once converted, just get a data recharge done plus don't forget to get a list of all the data recharges & tariffs they have. This will ensure you can get future recharges done from any vendor rather than visiting the franchise again :P

Do get it. 3G works great !! :cheers:

 

Edit: Conversion is just Rs. 1 :P
