Whether or not this all-time thoroughbred can run the darn operating system, though, that’s another question.But we might as we take our victories as they come as HTC’s big Windows Mobile release for 2009, the HD2, has finally had Android 7.0 Nougat hacked onto it.

I remember how free I felt the first time I dabbled in alternative operating systems on my old family PC.After growing tired of using Windows Vista, I started looking around and asking friends what I should do. One suggested trying Windows XP Black Edition, a hacked version of XP, and another suggested trying various builds of Linux. Ultimately, I gave Ubuntu a try.I never looked back. From that day, I stopped using Windows. It felt incredible to load whatever software I wanted onto my hardware.

The All New HTC One won’t grace us with its presence until the end of the month, and at this point we’re beginning to wonder if HTC will have anything left to reveal at the announcement.

The good old HTC HD2… Regardless if you’re currently an iOS, Android, or Windows Phone fan, or you prefer Apple, Samsung, Nokia, HTC, LG, Sony, or another OEM, you have to give it to the good old HTC HD2! Over the course of its four year existence, this dinosaur ran anything, really, and now it looks to be running Android 4.4 KitKat, like a champ! (which, by itself, should be no surprise as we’ve just seen the Nexus One being capable of running it). XDA Developers have ...

There’s a point which we’re coming up on, if we haven’t reached it already, where it makes more sense to think of the HTC HD2 in terms of what mobile platforms it DOESN’T run than those that it does. In just the past year we’ve seen it get Jelly Bean, Windows Phone 8, and even full-on Windows RT. ...
