Enable WiFi 11n support for the HTC HD2

The Opening of CSL Technology Centre Marks Latest Milestone in LTE Technology in Hong Kong

If you’re bold enough, there is a registry hack that enables the HTC HD2 Windows phone to use WiFi 802.11n networks instead of just the 802.11b or 802.11g support advertised. The somewhat simple tweak requires a registry hack that also, because of the higher-speed wireless, reported an increase in battery consumption as well—probably why HTC decided to disable the 11n support out of the box. But then again, haven’t we all grown accustom to multiple charges during the day anyway?

 

For the tweak, just use a registry editor, go to hklm/comm/bcmsddhcd1/parms and set 11nModeDisable=0. Just be aware this is an alteration to out-of-the-box configuration and any registry modification should not be taken too lightly as you could brick your phone; use at your own risk but would enjoy anyone who has tried this to comment.

There's a handy little app somewhere on Xda-devs that provides a nice TouchFLO-style list of the registry tweaks for the HD2 accompanied by the on/off slider thing.
