    HD2 Users running Android?

    Thought I'd give FroYo a spin lats night and I have to say I'm mighty impressed
    not going to go into details of how , but pop over to xda-dev.com , stick in a spare SD card ( it runs directly off SD , so the faster the better - and if you dont like it , just power cycle the phone and you are back to windows ) I even have it dual booting

    ah finally someone else on hexus giving it a go

    works remarkably well - all things considered... I'm looking forward to the 0.2 release of ubuntu to give that a go... still plenty of things for the dev's to work on tho!

    it works amazingly well - from the release notes of the build I put on there are only a few i's to dot and t's to cross. adressing the battery life would be nice.
    when gps / native camcorder and sim contacts are there ( not that it worries me as mine are all synced to exchange ) they'll be onto a winner.

    it certainly going to make the choice of my next phone a tough one. now android has the exchange integration its onto a winner.

    What Radio version are you running on yours, I get the old high pitched squeeling when I call ppl or they call me, used to get it on the older Dutty ROM's until I upgraded the radio to 2.20.50.26

    Re: HD2 Users running Android?

    I'm using [BUILD] [28.07.2010] [mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense RC1.2] [Kernel: Cotulla 2.6.32.9 #71], with Radio 2.12.50.02 with Jmz Android Dual-Boot for HD2 v4 --- 19JUL10.

    This is all running with the latest Energy ROM and call audio is fine for me.

    I'm not aware of a 2.20.50.26 Radio for the HD2 ?

    Sorry, 2.10.50.26
    Dutty Creme V1 ROM is fine underneath but Android suffers.

    Try the Energy ROM dude ( 21911 version ), It's the best custom ROM i've tried and update to 2.12 as I have found it offer's the best battery life and GPS.

    Changing the base ROM may fix high pitched squealing when calling.

    I'll change the radio rom later, that fixed the same issue a while back on the WM rom's..

    Sounds like your phone has booted into Turbo mode, which version of Android are you using?
