Now, you can enable your Android and Windows Phone 7 to share the same SD card. XDA developers have come out with a way to dual boot Windows Phone7 and Android.
You need 2 SD cards and SD partition software for this. In this dual boot procedure, you need to install WP7 in Nand and Android on SD card.
Both WP7 and Android cannot be run from Nand at the same time as there are some limitations in both operating systems.
If you have a small wp7 partition on your HTC HD2 and you transfer this to your larger SD card then it should not affect any of your live services as wp7 will boot from this partition and reflashing of wp7 is not required. However, if you are recreating the partitions then you need to reflash WP7 and need to reconnect live services.
So, if you want to dual boot Android and Windows Phone 7 both on your HD2, then follow the instructions listed below:
