NOTE: Current ROMs for Download in Post #2

I have been on top of the Linux/Ubuntu/Android on HD2 scene for quite a while, testing builds every day!

I'm not sure if you guys know, but the development of Android on the HD2 has jumped millions of miles this past week, we basically went from not being able to load Android at all, to having stable almost fully working builds.

I won't bore you with all the details, let's get to the fun stuff!

I would recommend you flash a 2.12.xx or a 2.14.xx radio before trying these out. It eliminates A LOT of problems reported by some users.

You can get the ROMs a long with my favorites in post 2.

Extract the file to your SD card root and then click on CLRCAD (you won't see anything happen) then click on Haret, and you're good to go.

Also, recommended working "lite" Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMs also in post 2 added as they come out.

Does "Android - Gen.Y DualBOOT v1.0.6.0" work as well?

It might, I don't know how well it works on the HD2, but I don't see why not, it's a haret loader like on the pro2

I was installing Android into my HTC Leo. Before the installation was complete the screen began to fade to dark. The phone went completely dead with a blank screen. To boot up the phone I had to pull the battery out and put it back. When I did everything worked fine with windows 6.5. What am I doing wrong?

Just try again, its very beta and definitely picky...you shouldnt have to pull your battery, just soft reset and it'll go back to Windows...
