HTC HD2 Apps: Android CM7.2 - 2.3.7 Gingerbread SD on HD2

This is the latest version (January-19-2012) of Android Gingerbread v2.3.7 for your HD2. This is by far the best build I have found for the Android on HD2. This is a SD build not a NAND build (NAND versions replaces WM, SD versions DO NOT replace WM) This build has everything working!

Working:
- 3G / Data
- Audio
- Bluetooth
- Wi-Fi
- 720p PLAYBACK
- Phone
- Camera
- Camcorder (HD !!!)
- GPS
- USB Disk

CyanogenMod 7 (CM7) builds are Fast, stable, and offer perfect support for RTL (right to left) languages (like Arabic or Hebrew)

Requirements:
- HSPL installed (see step 1 HERE)
- Radio version 2.08 or higher (2.12.50.02_2 recommended) (see step 2 HERE)


Install Instructions: 
After installing HSPL and upgrading your radio version (see Requirements). Copy the Android folder to your SD card . (should look like this: storage card/Android).
Option 1 (recommended): Install this Android Launcher on WM, set it to "Auto start" and to "3 seconds", and soft reset to start Android.
Option 2: Go to the android folder on the storage card. Click on the "CLRCAD.EXE" file, ( you will get no action on the screen but it is normal). Click the "HARET.EXE" file to launch Android! First boot always takes a long time (about 10 minutes) be patient, it will work, and future boots do not take as long. After you load Android for the first time  reboot after 10 minuets or so, it's best to leave alone until the reboot.

Known Bugs & Fixes:
I'm stuck on the gray logo screen for more than 30 minutes - If you are sure you installed the HSPL and the your RADIO is upgraded, format your SD card and try again.
3G is not working - place the "power control" widget on your home screen (with mobile data and 2G/3G toggle enabled) and make sure they are both on. If it is still not working check your APN settings. or see the developers page for more help.
The battery is draining too fast -  install this Android Launcher on WM set it to 3 seconds, and soft reset to start Android. Starting Android as fast as possible (before HTC Sense) is crucial for a good and low battery drain.
Market keeps showing "Force Close" or other errors - 
1. Change your locale to English (United States) settings->language
2. Clear market data and cache. settings > applications > Market.
3. Run market.
4. Change the locale back to the original one.
USB is not detected by Windows:
Install this widget: http://adf.ly/428563/dual-mount-sd-widget-zip and turn ON the debugging mode under application settings.

HTC HD2 Apps: Chainfire Turbo 3D v3

Turbo3D (Formerly known as HD2/Leo 3D Driver Patch) is a must-have on your HD2!
Many Snapdragon devices (HD2) have an issue with OpenGL that makes 3D games very slow and/or stutter. Turbo3D tries to fix this.

The Turbo3D driver is fully automatic - just install (to main memory!) and reboot - yet you can override the default configuration.

The Turbo3D driver can operate in 3 modes:
(1) "Original" - Don't do any magic, just use the stock 3D drivers, mostly terrible
(2) "Fast" - Improve performance as much as possible, works great for most games and apps
(3) "Smooth" (Anti-Stutter) - Prevent stutter lag, some games and apps need this mode to run smoothly


By default, any application the driver does not "know", runs in "Fast" mode. This default can be changed in the configuration tool. As soon as an app runs that uses GL, the driver registers this, and after running it for the first time, the mode to use for this app can be configured in the configuration tool. For most apps and games you will probably never have to change the default settings.

As stated, some apps and games require "Smooth" mode to run fluently, for these you will have to go into the config tool and change the setting for that specific app.

More Information about this app can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592663
 

* This app must be installed on the main memory and not on the storage card.

If you have the older version of the chainfire 3D driver installed you should manually uninstall it before you install this new version.

If you are running a rom with the older version cooked in do not install this app.

HTC HD2 Apps: SciLor's Leo Camera Any Key v2.5

One of the major setbacks of our beloved HD2 is that is has no camera hardware button.
Not any more !!! This little hack turns the volume buttons to hardware camera buttons.
No more clicking on the screen to take pictures or record videos. one click on the volume up/down button and that is it !
This new version adds the ZOOMING option! just click and hold to zoom in and do it again to zoom out.
* To enable the zooming option open the config file.

How to install:
this download contains two cab files.
1. install the first one called: "SciLorsLeoCameraAnyKeyv2.5.CAB"
2. Soft Reset Your device.
3. this file will give you 4 new icons on the start menu . One is for taking photos, one is for videos, one is for last mode opened (photo or video) and the last one is "config".

TO USE YOUR NEW CAMERA BUTTON YOU MUST USE THESE ICONS!

the old camera shortcut will still work, but you don't need it anymore!
4. After you install the first file check to see if it works on your camera version.
5. install the second file called: "LEO Camera 6_26_20121425.cab" ONLY if its not working.
This second file will upgrade your camera version to 6.26 Build 2012.1425


* This is not compatible with all roms. Try this on your own risk.

HTC HD2 Apps: LeoCpuSpeed v3

LeoCpuSpeed v3, control cpu speed & overclock

Features
- Updates CPU speed every half second
- Can stress the CPU to show you that it goes up to 998mhz under load
- Disable autoscaling so that you can control the speed yourself
- Select the speed you want by moving the slider or pressing 768/998 presets
- Automatically disable autoscaling and set speed at boot (via menu)
- Overclocking

Notes on auto-apply speed at startup
1) Disable autoscaling
2) Select the cpu speed you want
3) Menu > Apply speed at boot

Notes on overclocking
1) Obviously overclocking is completely at your own risk, as you could harm your device. Luckily, in most cases, your device will just lock up and you'll need to restart your device (remove battery, re-insert and turn on again).
2) The green buttons were the overclock settings that have been succesful 9 out of 10 times. The orange speeds have been succesful like 5 out of 10 times. The red speeds have never worked for me yet.
3) The higher the speed, the more unstable. This is mainly because I don't have a way to increase voltage of the core.
4) Overclocking only works on AC power! When on battery power, the overclock will work but will be undone within 500 milliseconds by the OS. Something within the OS, or a driver, or the radio rom, enforces the proper CPU speed every 500ms. 

Try playing a decent movie in TCPMP or coreplayer with autoscaling on, and try again with autoscaling off and at 998mhz. Huge difference. (Note that some ROMs already have autoscaling disabled and will run at 998MHz all the time, like CleanEX. You won't notice a difference there obviously.)

HTC HD2 Apps: IMAG to Date v2.5

IMAG to Date Customizes Filenames of Media Files on Windows Mobile Devices

IMAG to Date is a full service utility that allows you to rename a bunch of media files (pictures and videos) into new names accompanied by date and event.

IMAG to Date renames image files, JPG, GIF, and BMP to Date Formatted filenames, MMddyyyyHHmm_RID (R.I.D. Random ID).
The dates are based on the Date when the file is created.

You’ll probably hate the way Camera application saves the image file, which was “IMAG####.jpg”. This kind of naming will cause a problem when backing up the image files in your PC/MAC specially when the file already exists in your backup drive but different picture, the only thing you could do is to rename the file in your mobile device. For example, you have “IMAG0050.jpg” in your mobile phone and you want to move that in your PC/MAC but a file “IMAG0050.jpg” already exists but has different picture? Probably the first thing you’ll do is to rename “IMAG0050.jpg” in your mobile device into something different.

Now to make things easier, IMAG to Date is created to solve that problem.

HTC HD2 Apps: Chainfire HD2 3D Driver Patch v2

For many Leo (HD2) users several OpenGL games and apps do not work properly, are very slow, or stutter. This patch aims to fix these issues somewhat.

This patch is a two-parter. It used to be a single package but I decided to split them up. You should install them both on the HD2.

--- (1) Chainfire-HD2-3D-Driver-Patch-v2.cab (OpenGL ES driver)
This contains my OpenGL ES CM patched driver and CL wrapper, and the CF3DConf driver configuration utility. It only applies to applications that use OpenGL (TF3D/Sense/Manila, games, glBechmark, etc). It is the "hacks" part of the driver package.

The patched driver can operate in 3 modes:

(1) "Original" - Don't do any magic, just use the stock 3D drivers, mostly terrible
(2) "Fast" - Improve performance as much as possible, works great for most games and apps
(3) "Slow" (Anti-Stutter) - Prevent stutter lag, some games and apps need this mode to run smoothly

The mode to run in can be configured by the CF3DConf tool which is installed by the CAB file and can be found in your start menu.

By default, any application the driver does not "know", runs in "Fast" mode. This default can be changed in the configuration tool. As soon as an app runs that uses GL, the driver registers this, and after running it for the first time, the mode to use for this app can be configured in the configuration tool. For most apps and games you will probably never have to change the default settings.
--- (2) Chainfire-TG01-D3DM.cab (Direct3D Mobile driver)
This contains the TG-01 Direct3D Mobile driver. It is compatible with the HD2. For some reason, the HD2 does not come with a D3DM driver by default. Very few apps and games use D3DM, but a decent D3DM driver is also known to influence the performance of DirectDraw, which is used by many applications. As an example, some people have reported improved performance in CorePlayer after installing my driver packages, this is most likely caused by this CAB.

HTC HD2 Apps: Chainfire HD2 3D Driver Patch v1.1

About
For many HD2 / Leo users several OpenGL games and apps do not work properly, are very slow, or stutter. This patch aims to fix these issues somewhat.

Usage - READ ME
There is a very important thing to know about this patch, and that is that it has two modes of working around the current issues. "Normal" mode and "Anti-Stutter" mode.

"Normal" mode is generally the fastest, is the default, and should give best results for most apps and games.

"Anti-Stutter" mode is quite a bit slower, but for some apps and games is needed to make them run smoothly. This mode generally slows all the other apps and games down!


After installation there is an app in your Start Menu called "glModeSwitch". This app switches between "Normal" and "Anti-Stutter" mode.

 Normally, you should not need to use it. However, if you run into a game or app that stutters or "lags", try enabling "Anti-Stutter" mode and see if it works better.
