[Q] Install .ZIP from Recovery on HD2 - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

How is it done? i did a search and only found the question, anyone have the answer?
how can we install .zip on HD2 as you would on recovery on a normal device?

There isn't a way yet. But u could try unzipping the folder and doing it that way.

What is it that you are trying to install

i am trying to install
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=759990
it is a theme and it comes on the HyperDROID ROM so i know it works on the HD2

may i ask you reedit the title [HOWTO] -> [Q]

I think we cannot do it yet with our hd2s...You can only change the theme now by installing framework.apk. but I think getting the framework.apk from that zip directly won't work either...tried that before.

You should see if the theme is metamorph capable!

metamorph?

Its an app that allows you to add themes with out flashing. The themes just have to be compatible

I've changed my rom to OpenDesire v1.3b now.
Can someone help me on applying this minimalistic theme to it, I'd be very grateful.
Thank you.
This thread makes no sense so far.
But to apply this, download it, put it on the root of your SD card, switch phone off, enter recovery mode then apply it via zip.
Edit:
You realise there is a Tom based on this theme? There's also a nextheme thread in Themes and Apps.

I've got ROM Manager, will that apply the theme?

In other words, simply flash this theme like you would flash rom, use whatever method you want!

Yeah, it should. But, if I were you, I'd download the one from the desire themes and apps section rather than that one. AND DO A NANDROID BACK UP FIRST!
Edit: in the last post, I meant rom, not Tom its called setrom if you wanted to check that out before flashing the theme over your rom.

Should be called 'nextheme'
However, you're using the OpenDesire rom right?
I don't think most/any themes would work on that as it isn't a port from the nexus one. I could be wrong, but nandroid back up first if you're going to try.
Edit: nextheme wont work as its for FRF72, the one you found could work if its for the right version.

Is there anyone you know that could port it over to the OpenDesire Rom?
Hello,
I think what benko was trying to say if someone creates a guide on how to do this he would post it in this "how-to" topic.
No idea on the theming though. (Relatively new also.) You could try flashing it (make sure you do a backup) It could be possible because the desire froyo roms are built from the n1 froyo roms, although opendesire's is compiled from the source.
seems there is a problem with data Package. i removed it (there is only TitaniumBackup inside)
and resigned it.
runs perfectly on OpenDesire 1.3b

ROM Manager downloads for HD2

Will all us HD2 users ever be able to download .zip ROMs straight from ROM Manager? And possibly even have Cyanogen nightly support for HD2?
I was just wondering as this would make installing new ROMs so much easier, instead of having to connect to my PC etc.
Replies welcome.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
isnt that what CWM does? you download the zip to your phone and flash fromthe phone, no need to hook to a pc
Yes but so far there is no support for HD2
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
Just come on here through mobile and download that way, how easier could it get?
Yes but it would be much more practical, and we wouldn't be able to receive nightlies, and not all Roms are on here! If you look in rom manager in the desire sections there are lots of roms I have never seen mentioned on xda before

Youre right.
I use desire z, and has Rom Manager installed.
If I want to flash new rom, I just open the ROM Manager and let it download and run it. And it will reboot to the new rom (custom Rom, actually)
But, I usually cannot stay long, I always go back to stock rom because I really miss sense UI
Cheers

I'll (try) to help;
1st: Using adb, push the mms.apk from Cm7 to /system/app on your wildfire
2nd: Reboot your phone and you should have the CM7 sms app
Do try and tell if you encounter any problems
Installing mms.apk like any other app might not work. (Says problem parsing the package).
And even if u replace it into sense rom.zip and flash through custom recovery, it might not work. Checked with an old sense rom. Don't know about latest ones.
Maybe due to the reasons,
CM7 is 2.3 Aosp and sense rom is 2.2
Sense Messaging app has sense HTC widget.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Hd2 help with roms..

HI, I'm running Android 2.2 Desire Sense from Nand. Magldr 1.3 I was wondering if I can download another Rom to my SD card from my phone and flash? I'm new to this so any links to download any great roms to my phone would help. Thanks in advance. Also, I believe windows is wiped from the phone and when I go into Rom Manager is detects my phone as an HTC Desire. I'm so confused.

Yes and No. It all depends on what system partition you have. If you want a new ROM on your phone you need to go choose one and read teh instructions.

There is all the roms you need in the dev section.
What type of rom do you want? ie what kind of build do you prefer, HTC Sense, Stock Android, Cyanagen Mod, MIUI ??

Well your confusion confuses me, what has windows got to do with rom manager?
Windows is gone yes, You installed MAGLDR which wipes windows allowing you to put Android on the nand in its place.
It says HTC Desire because that is the build you have installed on your device.
If you are new to all this I would highly recommend taking the time to go read some guides etc and learn all the info you need is there waiting for you. There is also a HD2 Toolkit in the NAND forum in sticky topic.
I'm a fan of HTC Sense. Sorry for confusing you, I'm new to this whole flashing thing. I've looked many times trying to find any kind of rom to download with no luck.

So where have you tried because you are obviously looking in wrong place if you cant find any roms lol.
You need to go into the HD2 Android NAND Developmet section.
If you like sense roms you should try this one..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931126
Its based on the stock Desire build but is more stable and has more features.
Are you asking if you can run to roms at the sometime similar to how a SD build works or are you asking if you can put a different new nand Rom on your phone because you would like to try out other roms?
Also if you look under hd2-android-nand you will find a list of roms you can download to your SD card to flash.

You´d have to store the RUU.exe file directly on your SD card, then extract it, and finally save the ROM image file as "leoimg.nbh". If this does work with any Windows Mobile compression/decompression software, I never tried.
Or, if you do have HSPL on your phone, maybe it will work with any custom ROM, directly stored onto your SD card.

Why on earth would he want to do that?? That is to flash Windows Mobile.
Hes asking about Android roms, Hes basically asking if he can download a CWM zip file via his phone and then flash that without need for PC.
@ OP
Yes you can do this but ONLY if your system partition that you currently have is compatible with teh rom you intend to flash. For example some roms need say 150MB partition, If you try and flash one that has more it wont work.
What you would o if you have compatible partition is..
Download CWM zip rom
Power off phone (do not reboot it can corrupt SD on HD2 Android)
Power on phone
Hold power until MAGLDR menu displays choices
Choose AD Recovery
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe Cache
Advanced>Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install zip from sdcard>Choose zip
Yes by far TheATHEiST instructions are the way 2 go. i might point out its worth keeping maybe the top 2 ROMs you like best on your SD if you have the space that is. this will allow you 2 go between ROMs on the fly.
Awesome!! That's the answer I've been looking for. Thanks so much!!!

If you take a look at this post cmylxgo gives a very easy to follow instructions on how to flash his roms. he also supplies all the software right in the thread so you dont have to jump around and look for files else all over since its all in one place including how to flash magldr v1.13 & updating Clockworkmod Recovery Partitions. there are other threads that break it down even farther if you arent able to get it working.
