hi there.....First of all let me tell you that I have read all the forums on this site and on htcpedia.com to solve my problem but no success. So i had no other choice other than to ask in the forum.
Problem is when I boot my hd2 for the first time after copying "Android" folder in to my sd card(32 gb), It would display 5-6 lines in the top left corner ending with the line "Jumping to the Kernel (custom)...." and freezes there even after i wake up from 8 hours long sleep. Then I have to restart it by removing the battery.
There is a one strange thing. When I copy 'Android' folder in the root of sd card (sd card\Android\..) no data image file would be created in it after the end of the situation described in second paragraph. But when I copy all file from 'Android' folder to the root of the sd card (Sd card\all files) , the camera flash lite will turn on for a moment and the screen will display weird black and white lines and would freeze there indefinately untill I restart it after good couple of hours and there would be data file of around 1 gb. Nothing would change even after I reboot again.
Radio- 2.10.50.26
rom- Elegancia gtx v 5.0 final wwe
android- mattcleo froyo 1.8
Please help...AS Android was my motivation behind buying this nice hardware.
Ok, first why don't you just use the search function or just jumpin two pages further? There are about one million people having the same problem as you.
But if I were you, I would try to update my radio at first (at least to 2.12) because 2.10 caused much problems.
And second thing is, which kernel do you use? And how does your startup.txt looks like?
Also make sure your version of WM is Android friendly.
Radio version is important also, most Android versions need a radio that ends with .50, NOT .51...
I would first make sure your current ROM will work with Android. Get a new one if needed. Next do a fresh reformat to fat 32 on your SD card. Last try a new radio: 2.10.50 does work for me, but you may try a 2.12.50 one.
Try to boot up between each of these steps. It may take one or all of them to get you up and running. Good luck.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
try a smaller sdcard.
I heard something about 32gb not working with android.
Solved the freezing puzzle.....fell in love with HD2 powered by android
hey thanks guys for support.....
Finally I managed to install Android on my hd2......It was my fake chinese made 32gb micro sd card making the trouble. I read in some forum about it.
Then I bought SANDISK 8 gb class 6 micro sd card and bingo......it worked.
Thank you guys.......And those who is having the same problem give it a try....
Sorry guys but I need some serious help getting android to run on my htc hd2....

The only thing that I possibly hindering me is my sd card, but some say that android runs smooth from these type of cards...so instead of going out and spending a fortune on a top of the range one I thought that I would post this thread first....
Is it something simple that I am missing........?
Please any help would be most appreciative......

Hi, i seem to be having a similar problem
I run haret and it seems to run through some scrolling text, then leave a blank black screen for ages at a time.
Have i too done something wrong?
Any help wud be greatly appreciated
Same...
Me too, the exact same thing. Have tried MDJ froyo rev 1.5, with S1 kernel and with Hastarin R8. Both types I get a black screen with HTC in green - but stays like that for upwards of 10mins.

the other thing you can do is get the android sdk, install adb, and watch the logcat, it shuld be obvious if it starts to loop, or copy the logcat and post it so someone can help you debug.
my guess, your card's corupted... try formating it to an ext4 file system, then back to fat32. or scan it on a linux box and see if it shows up corupted...
Thanks t1h5ta3....
I will give it a go....
i used to face the same issue. place the android folder in the root of your sdcard
and check your startup.txt for your android path
e.g set cmdline "rel_path=Android"
you've probably did it before....
So why not pay a little money and get a low end SD card for testing? That would tell straight away if there's a problem with the card.
I use a 16GB Sandisk class 2 with no problems and also have a 16GB Kingston class 4 that runs fine.
Never had any problems, except SOD (and there's a fix for that), with these 2 cards.
Both formatted Fat 32 with 32 kilobyte allocation size on a Win 7 machine.
Makes Sense.........
"Enough" is "Enough"
From my previous post I have purchased another SDHC card (TOSHIBA 8GB CLASS 4) for testing android and surprise surprise I am still getting exactly the same problem, not a thing in regards running android. Why is such a simple thing turning out to be so problematic, my head has finally dropped and I am losing the will to live.....?
Common Issues.....
whilst linux is booting android it will always stop at "SMD: ch 1 1 2 -> 2".......... ???????????? i have searched for this with little or no success.
And one thing that I find very confusing is the Startup.txt files... what should it actually say because many people have different opinions.....BOOT or BOOTLINUX ????
Can anyone please please please post a complete setup in regards of rom, radio,etc etc of there HTC HD2 (LEO) European version """(NOT A 1024)"""" running android, so I can compare and find out what the BL**DY hell is going on...

The only other thing I could think of is that maybe it's the Windows rom that you're using. Haret Android actually makes use of bits and pieces of what winmo leaves behind in memory, and since you are running a rom with cht built in, it may be using the ram memory differently, storing different things in ram addresses that Android doesnt expect. I would back up your NRG CHT build (shouldnt be too bad using XDA_UC), and flash a stock rom or NRG's bare bones Android rom. If it doesn't work, at least it's one more thing you could cross off the list of likely suspects

HERE
The plot thickens
Thanks for the suggestion huggs....
I flashed Energy.Leo.COM2.Barebones WM Build.For.Android as you suggested and have been getting some strange results??????
Firstly because that particular build auto boots into android once you switch on your device with an sd card inserted it does not detect either my Toshiba micro 8GB or my Sandisk 4GB SD"HC" cards and says "NO STORAGE CARD HAS BEEN DETECTED"... although saying that I can open file explorer on my device and read both storage cards.....but the auto boot does detect my Sandisk micro 2GB "SD" card and auto boots android but Linux stops at line "usb: product_id 0xff9" and hangs......
Either my hd2 does not like micro "SDHC" cards or it is knackered......

jingers i preformed task 29 and i can not get my phone into the bootloader ?
Hi there,
One question to all of you having problems with Android. Do you happen by any chance to have extended battery?
I similar problems with Android. One day it worked and the next day it wouldn't and no matter what I did it just refused to work on any build I tried. I was so sure that it was because of the memory card that I even didn't think about the extended battery causing problems.
So if you try everything, including different wm roms, different android builds, changing sd cards and are totally at loss just try any rom with extended battery support or try changing the kernels that support one and then try again.
Provided you've got extended battery and are not too much experienced in Android issues I could bet that this is the cause of your problems.
hi rafian a good shout but no i am not using an extended battery.....
But is does not matter now because i think my phone is bricked after doing a task 29 because it will not enter the bootloader ??????????
Also because it is not entering the bootloader and all i get is the NRG flash screen from my preivious rom and that task 29 has not removed it am i right in thinking if i send my phone off to be repaired / replaced they will see that splash screen and know that i had HSPL installed and void my warranty ???????
I'm sorry to read it Frank. This is the worst case scenario ( .
WHY O WHY did i do a task 29......................
Got my HD2 to work
Hi all,
I also faced many problems in my attempts to make Android run on my HD 2. I got stuck on the startup screen (starting Linux kernel etc).
In the end irrespective of what the other form user stated, you need to install HSPL (article link provided below). Be warned, to install this I had to switch off everything (wifi, BT etc) but phone (and a reset was needed) and had to make sure on windows desktop that Windows Mobile Device Centre was able to communicate with phone BUT was not synching anything.
Once HSPL was installed I found out that my Radio ROM was too old. need 2.07... + (I had 2.06...) I then updated my Radio ROM thenTADA I am now running Android on my HD2.
Here is the link that resolved my issues.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=767513
Hello all,
I have a T-mobile HD2 with Mdeejay_FroYo_Sense_v._2.3_Clean_#15 build of android loaded on the stock 16GB microSD. It was loading good for a full day no problems but my GF keep downloading apps and it restarted and would not start up again. I noticed the SD card had a weird file named EncFiltLog.menc. I googled this file and discovered this is some kind of encryption that the WinMo system created, not sure how this happened since it was in android during the crash/restart.
Well I did a hard reset and did a few formats of the sd card and tried to load the build again and no luck. But another microSD with the same build of android works.
I am doing a full format on the card now and I'll see if that works, but can somebody help me out with this one.
The threads with the info about the EncFiltLog.menc file are pretty dated from 2007 - 2009 and I couldn't find any new information about this or a solution.
BTW my Rom is Stock 2.13 and my Radio is 2.15. Hope my microSD card isn't dead.
Thanks!
For a moment I thought I made the post without knowing it as I have the exact same problem! I'm using 3.14 stock ROM though.
Anyone can help?
That file has nothing at all to do with Android...like you said, its an encryption file for WinMo if you ever choose to encrypt your SD card. Anyways, sounds like your SD card is just plain old bad. This seems to be happening more and more with Android, so use it at your own risk.
I think i fixed it.
installed chuckydroidrom with flashaholic (the one that does task29 first) and formatted microsd with fat32 at highest possible allocation unit. did a fresh install, rebooted twice, then copied data.img to load everything back. Everything works fine and battery life is better then before.
chuckydroidrom - wm rom
2.15 - radio
darkstone froyo hd v3 - android build.
If everything is working fine is there any reason to fool around with the zimage? That is one thing I haven't played around with yet.
Hi,
I have been on this forum for the past 2-3 days trying to get android on my gf's HD2 and it just wont have it.
I have tried MCCM's HD v4 Desire one
I have tried Froyo 1.5
I have tried DL Desire Series, both SD and MAGLAR.
The ones where you click CLRCAD.exe then haret.exe either say it doesent have certificates to run or parts are missing. Or it goes to a black scree and gets stuck on "Jumping To Kernel" and it stays like that for ages (tested for 1 hour, never budged)
The DL desire series via MAGLAR wont work either, I need HSPL (sp?) to install MAGLAR but HSPL keeps reporting back that the file Rapi.dll is missing.
My SPL version is 1.42**** so technically thats right ( from what I have read )
I have tried formatting the SD card via PC and device, also tried a factory reset and an additional 2 other SD cards. Still nada.
What else can it be? Someone mentioned the radio but there is so many questions being asked in a specific thread that mine gets lost and since this is more of a global issue I thought a thread of its own is deserved
I really want this and will go to any length to get it ( not keen on ROM flashing thought, would like to avoid turning the handset into a hammer rather than a phone)
Hope I havent busted any rules
Cheers,
Gib
You need radio 2.14 or more for Android.
aka, upgrade your ROM.
You are not alone
You are not alone here.
I have been having this problem too, I get stuck on the HTC white screen. though I haven't tried much ROM but I have tried formating and reflahing of my WM ROM.
I once did a stock ROM official update with: (RUU_Leo_S_HTC_NLD_3.14.404.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2 .15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship)
ever since I have not been able to find how to flash using SPL, I have been flashing using SSPL_RU and my radio is 2.15.50.14.
Could this reason be the problem.
I need help please I want to have a feel of droid.
Know the feeling
I have been trying all the different android magldr sd roms and everytime its the same story. First boot fine. Second boot and on it just hangs at the green htc logo. I have tried so many things i don't know what to do next.
Have you tried one of the Energy ROM's? I found on my unlocked HD2 that these were the only roms (going back a while now) that I could get Android running off an SD card. I've since heard that there is a basically blank rom for people who want to run nothing but android. It's a small rom, only about 30mb.
It's in a few places around the board. I can't remember what the name of that one is off the top of my head, but any of the Energy series, or the Miri ROM's apparently work too.
Good luck!

Ater trying some nand roms i came back to the orignal firmware( the same as you).
And i also have this problem , it just load into a picture with htc on it.
Have you tried using a different SD card? My Sandisk 8gb didn't accept anything. I had an old 512mb laying around that came with my E90, loaded SuperRAM on it (aprox 450mb including data.img) and it booted straight away.
2.15.50.* is the right radio for most SD builds, make sure you have enough free space on SD. most builds have at least 512mb if not 1gb data.img which gets created when first boot. If runs out of space it will get stuck on boot screen. No hspl required with 3.14 HTC winmo rom
I also try to get Android in my HD2 (energy ROM). I am somewhat puzzled however: I want to flick back and forth between WM and Android and many programs I have reside onto my SD card. I have read in an earlier post that before attempting Android I should format my card - does this mean that I cannot have WM data (programs etc) in the same SD card I run android? or that I can transfer them back AFTER I manage (if) to load Android?. Thank you
The SD card has to be formatted in FAT32. Just to make sure the card is clean I copy all my data to my pc, format the card and transfer it all back.

OK thank you - got it!
Unfortunately I cannot get passed the green HTC splash screen - my HD2 stays there for time no end and the only solution is to take battery out. Any suggestions?
Assuming you've got everything set up properly (right radio, hspl, ...) which you can find on the Android forum. I think you'll have to try using a different brand of sd card. Some cards simply don't play nice with Android.
Got uber annoyed with the SD method, just ended up doing a full scale flash to ROM. Was easier lol

I would almost agree with that except, i have 2 exactly the same 16 gb cards, each with a 3 gb fat32 primary partition. 1 loads android but wont allow me to do things like take pictures[it says there isn't an sd card.] The second card just hangs at the green htc screen. Even if I copy the working partition to the other card, it still hangs.

Thanks for this Info. I didn't take into consideration that the file will be enlarged during booting. The copied Android folder was 508MB in size but this got enlarged to about 1.3GB during boot up. I thought if I just leave about 1.2GB in all the SD card I have been trying that it should be enough. But I was wrong.
Thanks a lot I have done multiple reboot without any problem.
I am enjoying my first Android feel.
Thanks once again.
Android on HD2 hates most SD Cards
From my own limited experience to also having read many posts I can say that most sd cards prevent Android from running properly on the hd2. Mine works fine with radio 2.14/2.15 and the stock Sandisk 16gb card that came with my tmous hd2, but I recently tried a wintec 16gb card that made Android run like a broke-wheel-cart and other sd cards I have laying around make it fail.
I think everyone needs to add what card they are using to their signature, or else we might all just end up howling in the wind.
Based on some feedback from another post I just ordered this Sandisk 16gb card from Newegg. It is Model # SDSDQ-016G-A11M . It is reported that that model# provides class10 speeds even though it is sold as a class2. It's use with Android is supposed to be good.
Hi is it possible to boot more than one android version on SD card ? I have win7.5 on nand & android on sd. and want to add 2end version of sd android ! i know it's possible with other devices as htc evo & desire ..using boot manager .
regards

Just place the second build on your SD card under a different folder name (with a corresponding Rel_path) and then switch between each build using the AD SD Dir thing in MAGLDR. I haven't actually tried this before (I don't use WP) but in theory I guess this should work fine.
yea that works, its just a bit clunky and time consuming. there's no bootselector that i know of, though, so its the only way, (i think)
but some installed apps in android creates folders in the root of the sd card . they will be corrupted as they will be shared by the 2 builds !!!
I have 4 SD roms in SD & WP7 in NAND, the only time apps get mixed up or corrupted is when you use the same ROM with different build like MIUI & the SII port which also uses MIUI. Not that much of a trouble unless you have critical files/ info you want to keep.
