Thank You,

Your device is not a HTC diamond 2 device, it's a clone model with less features (low resolution, etc), and if your model is the one on the link, it have windows mobile 6.5, not android.

It actually has both OS .. Windows Mobile 6.5 and Android 2.1, I can choose to boot with either when turning on the device.
Would it be possible to update it to 2.2 or 2.3 ?
Correct info about the phone:

thats samsung's new update policy for u
The ROMs between SGS2 and SGS+ are totally different. The numbers can be the same, but it doesn't matter. You can check other Samsung's stock ROMs just to notice they are all quite similar.
Do not in any case try to flash ROM from different phone.
Thanks. Is there a 2.3.5 firmware available for mine?

Some potential bug fixes, like camera or so on. Battery life and performance seems a bit better. There's also 2.3.6 (ZSKP6) But includes only few asian languages and English UK and US
I know it is a bit of a cheek but do you have a link for the 2.3.6 firmware?

I downloaded ROM Toolbox recently which btw ****ED UP my phone, sonetimes the phone gets stuck now and many apps (also some I've already installed before) cant be downloaded via marked cuz now they are marked as not compatible with my device...

Is there a ROM out there which is like an enhanced version of the stock rom ? Many roms dont look very good (talking about the appearance), and an enchanced version of the stock rom without all the sync bs of google and stuff would be very cool....
this rom toolbox is such a crappy tool for sgs+....

No as of right now it's not possible. I'm sure there's someone working on it since the HD2 is its predecessor and they both use the same chipset and are very similar in hardware, so there maybe a possibility in the future.

Really!?! WP7 has come along way since it's release and we will continue to see development on our device...windows 7.8 is just around the corner and so is windows 8.
Have you unlocked your HD7 and flashed a custom rom so that you can tweak and modify it?
I'm not sure when it will be released.. It took alot of time and work to get the HD2 to be able to duel boot and run Android on it.
If you can't wait and really don't like WP7 OS that much, then I would suggest to get the HTC Desire HD, which is basically the same device as the HD7 but runs Android OS or get the HTC HD2.

For the developer unlock program without the student ID, you would have to purchase it at like $99.00 for a years use and since you don't have a credit card that's probably not an option then.
To install XAP files your device does need to be unlocked to allow side loading of apps.
Flashing of a custom rom means to wipe and replace the factory OEM rom with a new custom rom that has been developed/created for our device specifically. There are many available that fully unlock our devices and allow for customization through registry tweaks and hacks, installation of XAP's and so forth.
Here's a couple of great custom roms for our HD7. Look them over and decide for yourself which one is best suited for you. There's more custom roms available also in the HD7 development section. I would suggest one that is running the Tango 8779 build as these will have the most features like export of contacts to SIM card, sending ringtones through SMS and so on.
Intrinsic rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1281482
Deepshining rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1271118
Nextgen rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1348710
To accomplish the installation of a custom rom though...you will have to follow Shadows excellent tutorial, step by step by downgrading you spl, flashing a non test, nodo or pre-nodo rom, Install rspl or hspl and then flash a custom rom. You have to follow all the steps or you can damage your device and brick it! If you need any help with it just let me know. Here a link to Shadows tutorial:

It depends on what your bootloader and spl are.
Put your device into bootloader mode by powering off the device. Hold down the volume key and power the device back on while continuing to hold down the volume key. This will bring you into bootloader mode a tri-colored screen. Copy down the information from the BL screen and post it back and I'll tell the next best step to go in.

Ok. Well then you'll have to use the goldcard/ Y cable method. Unless you have a pre-mango back up in Zune. Meaning you updated your device to mango OS version and if so you still have the computer that you used to do it on.

Why in the first place you bought a WP7 device? I bought it because I don't like android very much, I don't despise it (that honor goes to the CrApple FailOS)
If you wanted Android, you should have bought any droid device, and you'll be happy.
Now, if you want android because of the "curiosity" or "experimentation"... Why you bought the HD7? the honor of running any Android version is for the Immortal HTC HD2.
Maybe you thought or somebody told you, that the HD7 has the same hardware as the HD2, which is true, the only problem and difference is the Windows Phone Bootloader.
The Bootloader, my friend is the one and only reason we can't have Android on any WP device... This answer has been repeated on these android threads a LOT.
If you want android so badly, sell the HD7 and get any Samsung, HTC, LG or whatever device fits your needs.

nothing is impossible

No hard feelings brother
It's just out of my curiosity. I don't own this phone myself, though I do play around with phones, sometimes voluntarily and sometimes I'm paid to do so
One of my friends just exchanged his China-made Android phone with this one. Having known, and played with legendary HD2, I was wandering if people flashed it with droids already. And it seems like its not taken any step further towards the Androids
I should dig in further to see what others have achieved and what I can do, if I can get hold of the phone longer, though
I see xdrc45 and vivek555666 were heating this hard-ironed phone, what happened further.....
Lets all see, nothing is impossible, as they say

Thanks for the tip... Works for me as well. Doing 7.10.8779.8 update right now...
Edit: It has been updated and right now running official WP 7.8... WOW...
Just pulled out the old HD7 and managed to get it to update as well. Maybe this will give it a bit of an extended life and I can pass it on to a family member.
Cheers for the heads up everyone.

This does not mean, that you are going to use home brewed ROM, but exactly opposite way. If you update it this way, you will get official updates through Zune.
Just do what is mentioned in the update post:
"Connect to computer, place in Airplane Mode, check for updates and quickly disable Internet connection."
I have just pulled the network cable after 2-3 sec. after update check started and waited. After several tries (~2-10) Zune told me, that there is an update available. Than you just reconnect the cable and run the update.
Repeat for each update. Than you have official updates installed.
There could be maybe more updates in your case, because you have only 7.10.8107.79 version, but at the end you should end up with official 7.10.8858.136. :fingers-crossed:
How it works?
I'm using custom 7.8 ROM but it's slow when opening apps.
This forced update is because of Microsoft, not HTC....having said that, it seems to be regional but I will try to force my USA phone today...

It seems to me a bit smoother. No problem with performance at all - it is fast as the Mango/Tango version. But it is only my opinion.
I have a T-Mo US HD7 that is unlocked. It's running the latest OS stock. I tried to force update it many times but only got the error 'Make sure youre connected to the internet'. Can someone please help me out with this?

Thanks for the info.
To update from custom 7.8 I need to:
1. update to official 7.8 ROM using Zune
2. re-unlock to be able to use unsupported apps - how?
?

Avoid that annoying trick and try this: http://www.wpcentral.com/tool-make-installing-windows-phone-78-update-easier
Just download, install it, it will ask you to install another flashing program when u start it, the install everything step by step and u will get it quickly... its was easier for me than the Zune "trick"...!

[Q] HD7 after update to 7.8 I've got several problems.

I need a help!!!
After updating to 7.8 I've got follow problems:
- can't set any new account (e-mail, facebook, etc)
- can't create new SMS, or e-mail
- can't open keyboard in settings
- can't open lock-screen settings
- can't open about in settings
anyone can help to fix these issues.
Try hard reset the phone, if that doesn't fix anything, use the goldcard method to downgrade the os and start upgrading again or you can use deepshining or dynamics, those are excellent roms.
did you find a solution for this ? I have the same issue with a friend's phohne
What about what I said?
Did you performed the Hard Reset?
There is another update coming right now! Maybe this one fixes your problems.Version 7.10.8860.142
Regards
Okay, just updated my HD7. ROM Version is now 7.10.8862.144

I'm having the same issues as OP, can you redirect me to the page?
I haven't had any problems since upgrading to WP7.8. I'm using the official ROMs (ie. non-cooked) BTW.

Forget the official, just install dynamics and a moment later Zune will give you 2 updates, no problem so far...
