The HD2 from HTC boasted of some seriously breathtaking specifications and that too, back in 2009. And because of the specifications, it’s not very surprising to see the smartphone run ports of MeeGo , Android and Windows Phone 7 . The latest on this front now, is that the HD2 will be getting a ROM to the Mango Update of Windows Phone 7.
Mangoes for you, HD2
If you have tried Windows Phone 7 on the HD2, you definitely must have heard of the Dark Forces Team. These guys were the ones to bring the port-that-won’t-be-official to the smartphone, and if what sources say are to be believed, the same team will also bring the Mango update for the HD2.
Apparently, Dark Forces Team is working hard to bring the ROM for the handset, sometime during this week, but this hasn’t been confirmed yet. It will be interesting to see how well the HD2 handles the ROM and hopefully will make Microsoft change their mind and launch some official updates for the HD2.
