Hi, I tried searching and I can't seem to find anything that helps. I followed all the instructions to install Android on my 1024LEO TMOUS and something just doesn't seem to be working. Regardless of the ROM, during first boot it goes through everything it has to go through and then gets stuck on either a black or a white screen with that has the HTC logo on it. I tried using a different WMo ROM and a different radio with no success. I also tried a different MicroSD card with no success. If I pull the battery and restart, it once again will get stuck at the same screen. Any ideas?
Check your Radio
i suggest Radio_2_14_50_04

Installed that radio, formatted my memory card, entered a new Android installation process. Everything went smooth up until a black screen with the htc logo popped up yet again. Any other ideas?
I would actually flash the original t-mo package. This will flash the rom, radio, and spl back to factory. Its the same process as flashing radios and everything else. You just gotta find the package online.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From there or skipping the above i would format the sdcard using a full format and fat32 and copy your android folder to it. I recommend using hyperdroid 1.6
then Flash a hspl or hard spl
Next I would flash VBNDroidRC3 if you do not plan on using windows mobile. If you still want to use windows mobile skip this step.
Now you should flash a new radio. I recommend 2.12.50.02_2
Now before you attempt to boot android for the first time reset your phone. Power it off. Hold both vol up and vol down while pressing power. then press up to reset as the screen says, then vol up again to restart.
Video will look funky on first boot while booting. Once booted video will be normal. First boot can take up to 20 minutes for some people.
Just out of interest how long are you leavning the HTC logo screen there for? First boot can take a long time as it creates the data store (cache) for android to use and depending on the build and how fast your memory card is (class 4 for example) can take anywhere up to 20 mins in some cases to create.

I long did you wait after the HTC blackscreen popped up? Some build requires a minimum of 5-10 minutes, yet other requires 15-20 minutes.
Just did a full reformat, loaded HyperDroid V1.6 onto the memory card, started the installation process, and left for 35 minutes. Came back to a black screen with the htc logo on it.
My ROM is: |WWE|TMO Leo|¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.- Energy -.¸¸.·´¯ | 21916 | 23138 |`·.¸¸.·´¯ Sense 2018 ¯)
Radio Version: 2.14.50.04 and I tried it with 2 other radio versions.
I used HSPL3 to flash the phone to SPL-2.08.HSPL.
I also tried using Chucky ROM and ended up with the exact same results. Starting to feel hopeless here
Try using HSPL2 instead and change your SPL-2.08.HSPL to 2.08.0000.
Then apply the official t-mobile update rom here: http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm54430.xml?
Then use HSPL2 and flash a hard SPL again. Then your wm rom, then radio, then run android for the first time.
Also do a full format of your memory card. not a quick format

The HSPL3 could be your problem. I'm also running EnergyRom but with radio 2.12 and HSPL2. Everything runs great on my end.
Try using HSPL2 instead of HSPL3.

idk, that may be possible there, but im using HSPL3 with standard energy and 2.12.50 and all roms install.
Okay, so I installed the original T-Mobile US ROM. This made my SLP version 2.10.0000. I downgraded it to 2.08.0000 using HSLP3. Then I used HSLP2 to flash it to 2.08.HSLP. I flashed the Energy ROM and 2.12.50.02_2 radio. Tried to install a different Android ROM and it froze yet again at the HTC screen. I waited for about half an hour and pulled the battery. Only difference that I noticed now is that while the HTC screen was on, a green LED was flashing every few seconds. Windows Mobile works flawlessly though... I'm not giving up yet but I'm pretty close to it
I'm having the same issue after switching from the 16GB SD card that came with the HD2 to a 8GB class 4 card I had at home. Seems like something to do with the SD card imo. Any thoughts? I've tried a full format and the card appears to be working fine.

I think he is onto something. Consider this:
Windows mobile works fine, all the flashing works fine. Try another sdcard and see if that works. Also I suggest you call t-mobile and request another sdcard. T-mobile admits that they were having issues with their sdcards not saving data or the phone having issues detecting them. Call them and say your memory card sometimes doesnt show as being detected and they should issue you a replacement card.

u still having problems what does ur startup text say...................
set cmdline " what does it say here "
Picked up a new SD card today, attempted to install a build that would previously get hung up on the black screen that said htc on it (NexusHD2) and as usual it ended up getting stuck at the very same screen again. I should point out though that I was able to get FroyoStone build working without any issues. I figured I'd screw around with the kernels and I ended up replacing the zImage used in the NexusHD2 build with the one used in FroyoStone build. It booted up! I got it running on my phone right now. I have yet to try this tactic out on other builds but for now I'll have to guess that this issue appears to be related to the kernel.
I can confirm that this issue was related to the kernel. Just had success installing HyperDroid 1.7 using the zImage from FroyoStone. Thank you to everybody who contributed. Hope this thread might be of assistance to someone in the future.
I've also had the HTC logo problem with starting Android. I've tried everything suggested but the only thing that helped and worked was formatting SD card with phone. I'm using Artemis WinMo ROM and it has an utility for SD card formatting. After I had formatted my SD card with that utility I've finally managed to start Android with any problems at all.

Hi, this is my first post on this forum so first of all I would like to appolagise for all the things I've either just done wrong, or am about too....
I am trying to install android on to my phone, I am on the stock rom but have succsesfully installed HSPL3 and radio version 2.11.50.20.
I have tried a few builds of Android but allways have one of 2 results.
Once I've run clrcad followed by harlet, it tells me I'm booting to linux. The screen then goes black, it runs about 8 lines of code, stops there and changes to a black screen with a green HTC. Where it remains indefinatly.
A friend with anouther HD2 has android working fine on his device, and altho he has a custom rom he tells me its not essential, as ive read up on the potential risks I would rather stick with the stock but will change if thats whats causing the problem.
I would really appreciate some suggestions, thanks in advance for your time and help.
Peter
forgot to add, the second result is the screen going blue indefinatly, which I presume from my extensive knowledge.........lol is a blue screen of death
upgrade your radio, im on 2.12.50, and the newest is 2.15.50
also, try a modded windows mobile rom, i use standard energy with no issues.
also, make sure you only have that one android build on your SD card. and that it's a new build, not an ancient one. (check http://android.hd2roms.com/)
you shouldnt have any more issues.
Thanks for the advice, unfortunatly before seeing your post I uprgraded too chuckeys rom, not energy, but get the exact same error... Leads me to beleive the problem is elsewhere. Will keep trying tho hope its worth it.
Jai meme problme mon rom est miri hd2 v_18.0 wwe ? Radio 2.15.50.14 ?
Same problem here, tried to change my wm rom and didn't work. I'm looking tonight if I can find a solution...
A little disclaimer
I will not be for any damage that may be caused to your device, HSPL remove warranty so be carefull. Don't forget to have more than 50% of battery remaining before the process !
So, maybe here is the solution:
I've try again with differents roms, changing my wm rom etc. and nothing works.
But, at the end I've change my radio rom to Leo_RADIO_2.12.50.02_2 found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Then installed Chucky GTX Lite rom found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618787
And to finish I've installed the bootloader and download MDJFroYoRevolution 1.4 with android 2.2
I've use the 512 Data img too (just unzip your MDJFroYoRevolution, take the 512 or 1Go file and put this file on your Android root.) isn't necessary but takes less time to work first time.
After that still not working so I managed to try to remove all files from my sd card (2Go only) and I put on ONLY MDJFroYoRevolution 1.4+512Mo Data img !
Then after 10mn~ it works !
I think the bug is only because sd card haven't enough space to create all files so the HTC logo stuck and no error message appear.
Don't forget to install the bootloader on your memory internal storage! and not the on the sd card!
Good luck everyone and I hope it will help.
ps: sorry for my english hope you understand anything
Having the same problem here. I've tried different versions of WM, different Android builds, updated the latest radio rom, all without success.
Strange thing is though that Android boots the first few times, but after resetting it more than about three times it gets stuck on the black screen with the HTC letters in the middle. The only way to get it running again is reformatting my SD card (8G). Only thing on it is the Mdeejay Froyo Sense v2.3 Clean...
Solution for the freeze screen after second boot
I put android not in the root directory but in a \Android directory on the SD CARD.
of course, I add set cmdline "rel_path=Android" in the Startup.txt file and now i can reboot my phone when i want.

Not true. I've installed on a couple of peoples HD2's using the latest stock WWE rom with radio 2.15. It does work, and it works very well.
I'm not saying you shouldn't use custom roms, that is everyone's prerogative (as you can see from my sig I use VBN's rom and it's perfect for me).
Try to move a folder called Android from sd card to another folder or delete it and it should help. It worked in my case. Good luck!
has someone hear find an answer?

I have tried many combos and radios and still stucked at green htc loading logo now i am just hoping for nand. strange thing its the volume down and end does not bring bootloader anymore.
I am new to XDA because I'm knew to the HTC HD2 T-mo USA. I like Win 6.5, works fine, but have the need to tinker. Seriously, have been researching how to install Android for about 12-14 hours combined. See plenty of guides that are not easy to understand, and then don't mention HSPL, etc. Could anyone help me safely install? I have loaded (but not installed) froyo sense 3.2 and dual boot loader. Everything appears to be okay, pressed clrcad, then hared and the HTC logo comes up??? I have not installed HSPL, is that the problem? A complete layman's guide would be very helpful. If I install HSPL can't I just remove my sim card to not lose contacts? Links to help, will probably not be helpful, I think I've read them all, as well as the rest of the Internet.
My info:
Radio 2.10 stock
Rom Vers. 2.13.531.1 stock
Thanks to all here, you guys are way beyond me and your mercy would be appreciated!
When you saw the htc logo how long did you wait for? If it's your first boot then boot time should take roughly 20 mins max. Unless you've downloaded a data image with the build you're trying out and placed the data image in the same android folder, then boot time should be faster. So if you didn't copy a data image file that you've downloaded, into the android folder, go into the android folder, delete the data image file that the system has created, and try to boot android again, wait for about 20 mins and android should be ready, complete the setup or not (DO not install any apps). Then reboot your phone, start up android again, then you're ready to go. HSPL does not remove sim contacts if i remember correctly.
The only problem with HSPL is the possibility of voiding your warranty.
Thanks!
First, thanks for your reply. In videos about installing, after people click haret, massive amount of script(?) start running, that just never happened. HTC logo comes up instantly, waited about 10 minutes, due to many people saying it took about 7 min. I was just expecting scrolling script/code(?)
Again, thanks for your help. I will certainly wait longer if that's what you believe I should do. Does HSPL need to be installed to install Android? Seen talk about radio, appears my 2.10 version is okay?
It's okie, it's normal for current android builds not to show those massive amounts of scripts. If i remember correctly stock roms don't really bode well with android so i suggest you flash a custom rom. I would recommend you HSPL the device first however since HSPL is recommended for both flashing winmo and booting android, HSPL 2 or 3 will do. You can remove the HSPl by flashing a stock rom through sd card when you don't want the HSPL anymore.Your radio is okie i think, i'm not sure about the prerequisites for running android on a t-mo hd2 however.
Hi, the videos you have watched are of the older versions of android which showed all the script when launching linux. Now they are all nicely concealled under the HTC logo, if you want a nice safe build to get you started, try darkstones superRAM rom.
It loads itself onto your ram rather than running off the SD card, and also runs perfect on stock phones without HSPL.
Simply drag+drop onto your SD card then lanch CLRCAD+haret, and away you go.
Heres a link:

Yes I believe you have to use hspl for your phone for the android process to be complete and work properly.

No, you do not need HSPL, I use Android every day on the ROM in my sig, with regular stock SPL.
No robot voice, no SOD, everything works.
Just place the Android folder on the root (not inside any folders, just on the sd card) of your sd card, go into file explorer in WinMo, navigate to Android folder, press CLRCAD, press Haret, and enjoy Android. First boot can take 10-15 mins.
try this,its very simple very quick to do and works very well

Hi ! You'd better change to an Android NAND Build, I'm currently using Android 2.2 NexusHD2 Froyo V1.9G Build on NAND, but I'm also using SD Android builds to test them..
So I never met problems when booting into Android.. but I'm using the latest Radio: 2.15.50.14 ..
By the way if you're booting into Android through CLRCAD & Haret, this means you're currently on WinMo 6.5, so it may be that your current WinMo 6.5 ROM is old, so try this one, if you're using European HD2, try to update your ROM to version 3.14.405.2, which is this one: http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=1043&news_id=782, but if you're using the T-Mobile US HD2, then try to update to ROM 3.14.531.1, which is this: http://dl.htc.com/ruudownload/t-mobileUS/DeviceDownloads.aspx?pid=leo2 ..
Your Radio Version may also be outdated, so that's why you can't load Android, which requires the newest versions of Radio to use... try the newest version 2.15.50.14.. which is this one: http://www.multiupload.com/QP0IWGY42F

Make sure you have radio 2.08.50.xx or higher.... what kind of HD2 do you have? Are you using a custom rom or stock rom.
did you install hspl3?
just like me i tried to install( when i was new)face this problem.
also if you have original rom installed get rid-of that find alternate best rom then try to install android .but b4 you do any things read carefully.
what size is your sd card? check if it doesn't get full at the boot. i had the same issue and it turned out that bigger sd card help.

If he has not HSPL... then he has not the good radio.
If he has the good radio... he has the good spl
What happen to one of my friend (can't remember if it was on HD or HD2) was an incompatible SD card. Try with another SD (if your radio is ok).
Stick with the sd version for now. Nand is still buggy and twice as difficult to install. Try nand when you get a little more knowledgeable.
So you tried 2 cards and formatted them both. Both cards are over 2GB?
As a couple members above mentioned you need a radio of 2.08.50 or above on your phone for android. EX: 2.10.50, 2.12.50, 2.14.50, or 2.15.50. To get the radio you either need to install rom 3.14 on your phone only if available for your regioned phone or install HSPL then 1 of those radios.
Thanks very much. I'll try and give it a go.
The ROM I'm using is a stock O2 UK ROM version 1.72.206.3, Radio version 2.07.51.22. I'd like to try using a cooked ROM, but I am going to have to read carefully how to flash as I've only done this once with the stock ROM. I will also try using a new sd card when i get a chance to go out and buy one. !! Thanks to everyone who has replied.

You have problem with the radio version. You have a .51 radio (ie 2.07.51.22) instead of the .50 radio (2.08.50.xx or higher .50). You will need to install HSPL 2.08.hspl and then flash a compatible radio. There's probably nothing wrong with your sd card, it's your radio version.

Bullsh1t!
NAND builds are no more or less buggy the SD builds and they are not "twice" as difficult to install at all.
Hello folks, I appear to have gotten into bother during a rom flash. After successfully installing a MAGLDR nand rom via CWM, the first boot of said rom just gives me the frozen splash screen without animation and the boot does not complete. Happens the same with three different roms.
I suspected somewhere further back in the boot process was at fault so I reflashed a known working radio rom, but problem still persists.
Despite a LOT of reading I can't see much about freezes at this point in the boot process on MAGLDR roms.
Bits that work - HSPL rainbow boot screen happily comes up, Task 29 works, magldr reinstalls and works fine, CWM perfect. Installs roms from SD (freshly reformatted) and appears to be ready to go, until boot actually begins then... splash screen freeze.
I have redownloaded various versions of everything to ensure no issues with corrupt files. I have also used different SD cards and ensured freshly formatted FAT32.
If it helps anyone, I have previously used NDT CM7 12.1 for about a month with zero problems.
Any other less obvious stuff I'm missing?
I'm off to bed so will be approx 7 hours from post time when I start responding. In the meantime I've put MAGLDR 1.10 on the phone so at least it can charge!
Many thanks in advance for reading.
Replying to self with update:
Installed OzRom Winmo 6.5 via the tried and trusted CustomRUU method, and it appears to work perfectly. What is winmo doing that android nand roms don't? I assumed if there had been bad blocks on the nand the much larger windows mobile rom would have covered this, and thus failed on boot.
At least opens the door to using an SD build till I can troubleshoot. Odder and odder.
Forgive my ignorance, but if the CustomRUU flash method still works for me, are there any modern android roms that don't need MAGLDR or clk?
Again, many thanks.

How long have you been leaving the ROM on the boot screen? A first install of an Android ROM can take anywhere up to and over 15 mins for first boot. I also remember one when installing a hyperdroid ROM I had to restart the phone once to get passed boot splash.
I'd recommend flashing a popular ROM, leaving it for 20 mins, restarting and leaving another 20 mins. What do you have to lose? Just remember magldr doesn't have charge while off capabilities!
Also check your partition sizes and layout (you have to edit flash.cfg for magldr builds, partition sizes depend on the rom you pick but will be specified in the ROM thread).
Thanks for the reply. Each time I left the rom on the boot screen for a good half hour, and in one case an hour. I have installed NDT 12.1 and the newer v16 successfully before, so I know what sort of timescales are involved. I also had a go at an earlier Typhoon build. Naturally I used only the recovery sizes specified in each rom's own thread, using versions of MAG/CWM specified there, and Task 29 beforehand.
I have an update to all this, however. Previously I said Winmo installed, but now it is bugging out to all hell. This might fit my "bad blocks in nand" hypothesis, perhaps the files covering the bad area are less critical than the ones in each android build, and Winmo just crosses its fingers and tries to boot anyway!
In any case, if I can get an SD android build running I'll cut my losses and stick with whatever works.
Cheers again, hopefully this random screed of info will help people. Seems to be if all else fails, try winmo.
