"Microsoft might have lost a lot of friends when it finally announced the HTC HD2 would not receive an update to Windows Phone 7 Series, but its loss is Tom Codon's gain. A fixture over at the HTCPedia forums, Codon looks to have become the first person to port WP7S over to the HD2."
I guess it was only a matter of time before someone got down to the task of making Windows phone 7 work on an HD2. Here's what I'm kind of curious about though: when he's on the list of programs and he swipes downward, a scroll-bar appears on the far right...that looks like a UI element from Windows Mobile 6.x, and not something that should be a part of Windows phone 7. Because of that, I'm not entirely convinced this is legitimate, but I could be wrong. What do you think? One more video after the break.

Looking closer at the video showing internet explorer clearly shows the screen moving out of sync with the finger gestures, thats a pretty big red flag.

The scroll bar appears in the SDK emulator. It flashes up when you slide up or down, in long lists anyway, such as the applications list. Not on the home screen. It disappears when the screen stops. Does give some feedback on where you are in the list.
