hey guys it's Brandon from pocketnow.com and in this video we're going to show you android with HTC Sense running on the HTC hd2 let's get to it now of course this is running through the Harry XE Linux bootloader but in the past a lot of devices on XD developers that typically run Windows Mobile can run the Android very very well to the point where you can use it as your daily operating system so Wi-Fi works and cellular data works and everything like that works on the hd2 it's not there yet as you're going to see this is just the start of hopefully good things to come for hd2 owners right now it's going to go into Android so I'll come back in a minute alright and we are loading into Android here on HTC hd2 always quota C I'm going to let it load it's going to be very slow and overall not usable but it's cool that we're getting there this is the first step of many to getting a smooth Android working on the HTC hd2 so let's let it load alright and here we are so this is sense we can swipe to the left like I said it's buggy so it doesn't always do what you want it to do so let me get it back to the home screen ok so we can swipe to the left loading the mail application so I begin we are in the HTC messaging application and swipe over to the left again there should be probably nothing there back to the center we can swipe to the right these are favorites you can add a contact let's see what happens if we tap on that should go to the add contacts screen right and there it goes we can select a contact to add to our favorites let's go back home go into the program list here which is slow to load of course and some things work and most things do not let's jump into the settings to see if we can get wireless radios turned on it looks like it's in a flight mode right now okay here we are would go to wireless and networks but actually seems to be getting a little bit faster as I use it and it's in airplane mode but it's kind of switching in and out so if uncheck it it kind of just goes right back into airplane mode and then there's an error message so we're getting there a very very good first step there's a lot left to go to get this to be usable but you can follow the progress at the thread at xda-developers I'll put a link up in that's in the sidebar and on the post on pocketnow.com we can go into the foreign application and see the dialpad but we cannot dial out because it's not recognizing the SIM card so dialpad somebody that's it for now please give the video a thumbs up if you like Android on the hd2 and we'll be sure to follow it closely for you and also subscribe to our channel youtube.com slash pocket now video that's it for now
