What you are doing wrong is not being patient.
Erase and reformat your SD card. Then recopy the Android folder from whatever build you are trying to use.
Then ClrCad; Haret; then WAIT..... Green HTC logo can last up to 20 min as it is writing a 1 GB data file.
Be patient.

HARET install fail white HTC screen problem. Need help please

You say you downloaded a bigger root fs file, have you tried booting without it?
Hi,
I have a question about the Froyo 2.2 Android on HTC HD 2.
- I have performed a HSPL succesfully and updated my Radio to R: 2.10.50.28_2, also succesfully.
- I downloaded the Android folder and a bigger rootfs file.
- I formatted my SD card to FAT32.
- Now I extracted the Android folder to the SD Card and after that I first tapped CLRCAD and then I (tried)installed HARET.
But here's the problem.. when I click HARET to install it brings me to a black screen with a few small text lines in the left-above corner and these dissapear after 2seconds and bring me to the HTC boot screen where the screen is white and you see HTC in green letters.
What am I doing wrong? . I really hope someone can help me with this.

That is what is supposed to happen. Honestly it's asked about a dozen times here every day. While it's on that HTC screen it is creating the data store which takes between 10 and 30 mins depending on lots of different things.

I know that is what is supposed to happen, but wThat's not it. The htc title screen is just for 10 seconds and then it just reboots and I need to enter my password and the phone is totally normal... On the youtube videos I saw that when you click the Haret, there first are a lot of text lines going down but that does not happen to me either. I really don't know whats wrong and I hope that someone can help me, because I un derstand that I probably sound like a moron

i have just tried to boot an older version of froyo android the 2.2v i got past the first black screen and it went to the black screen where the white writing starts to scroll down the the writing faded into white lines what am i doing wrong
back up your sdcard contents to your computer.
format it, preferably from a linux box. if your stuck with win-blows, then you can do a full format, not the quick format.
now put JUST THE ANDROID folder on the sdcard.
put sdcard in phone, boot into android. when it boots, dont do ANYTHING for 5 min. reboot.
once it reboots, goahead and log in, synch etc.... then reboot
after that you can coppy the rest of the sdcard contents back over and be good to go.
which winmo rom, radio rom, and android build are u using?
i am using the darkstone froyo 3.7 build i am not sure what radio is or which one i am using i will try what you have suggested and let you know how it goes
right i formated (full) the sd car using windows vista the only way i could do this is plugging my phone into my laptop using the usb and formatting it that way
then i copied just the android folder to my sd card
rebooted the phone and went to file explorer opened the android folder doulbe clicked on clrcad then on haret
i was then stuck on the screen that i was before so i waited 5 mins just like you said to rebooted the phone and it was still on windows.
i repeated the same steps and waited ten minutes still no luck
also just so i understand after i waited five minutes should i be able to reboot the phone i do i have to pull the battery out like i did and where you put (when it reboots login etc)
is there any way you could email me a file to see if it is the files i am using
thanks for all you help so far guys!!!!
i am from th UK i dont know if that makes a difference
i have a 2gb sd card
i have just done some research on the radio versions and round a thread called master radio for the htc hd2 on xda but i am unsure which one to use and could this be the root of my problem thanks again
OS version 8.2.2.1869(21869.5.0.82)
manila version 2.5.20121429.0
ROM version 1.72.206 (8637200) WWE
ROM date 04/15/10
radio version 2.07.51.22_2
Protocol version 15.32.50.07U
i have just done a bit more research and found out that i need to use a .50 for flashing could this be a problem if i dont could this be th root of my problem
very big part I'd say.... It does say on just about EVERY build that you need a .50 radio NOT a .51....

no, depending on the class (speed) of your card it'll take 15-20 min to initalize on the first boot... theres alot going on in the background.
once its booted...ie: once it shows the initial android log in screen. ie: it has actualy booted into android.
if you pull the battery in the middle of the first boot, you just corupted the data it was writing.
format the card again - get rid of the corupted files.
now start over.
and yes, you got to have the corect radio installed etc.
most roms have a requirements list... if not folow the stickies.
as ive stated a ton of times in a ton of thereads, its worth installing ether droid explorer or adb on your pc if for no other reason but to be able to run a logcat so you can watch it run comandline, aswell as post it so others can help you debug/troubleshoot.
I have the same issue with linux showing that message then it boots up a green htc sign and stays there.. i left it there for 40 minutes waiting to see if anything would happen and never did. I had android running before but did a full format on my sd card and then installed another and this happens everytime i try.
I am running Miri_Dinik- V 19.0 WWE
Radio: 2.15.50.14
I also am using the 16g sd card that came with my tmo hd2
i have been searching for days for an answer and decided to finally make a post to see if i can get any answers
thanks

how to cancel the clean boot on acer s200??

hello everyone as the title says how to cancel the clean boot on acer s200 Because it gives me after I touch the screen aligner target until it back in the middle, after she gives me nothing always the same screen​
Hello, Exodix-i´ve had the same problem:Hardreset,clean boot and then calibrating the touchscreen. It allways took longer and longer and you can do nothing about it.... makes you feel verrrrrrrry lost!! The longest time i have been following the cross ´round the screen was 2 h !!!!! There is no way (as far as i know) to skip this part of the setup-so keep on and stay patient. B t w -i used my fingers at the end-You can setup the touchscreen later again to work more exactly.
Greetings-Frank. (If Brainmaster reeds this-are you from H in Ger??)

The solution should be very simple - just make a blank welcome.not file and copy it on your SD Card. The existence of the welcome.not file stops the Calibration and Welcome screen.
@ Frank - Yes. How did you knew?
@ Brainmaster: "Frohes Neues..."! ...what for a file?? how to get it and how to boot from SD???? I`m not so familiar to all of this...just an unknowing user...!!...probably this could have worked with my m800. It had the same problem and does now RIP-the service at Pearl couldn´t fix it......! (b.t.w.: your Weather told me!!! I`m from Burgdorf.)
all the best-Frank.
Open notepad on PC - save a empty file named "welcome.not" (just a empty file!) - extension of the file must be .not and not .txt - copy it to the SD-card - reboot your Phone ...

Stuck on HTC Loading screen

So ive been going through a few different SD builds for my HTC HD2. and all of a sudden the last 3 dont load past the HTC loading screen. right now im trying to get the newest MCCM GB sense build i think its 1.8 going. but they all freeze. some people said it takes about 20 mins to get up and running, but i wait 30-60 mins and it stays there. Maybe i deleted a folder that allows it to boot up properly? help please!
bump for help
Please help!
Did you add the relevant directory and boot type to the "set cmdline=" line of startup.txt?
Considering i have no idea what that is. probably not. but ive never added that before and ive always been able to boot android up on the first try.
Heres a basic play b play
I load up my phone (WM)
i go to my file explorer, sd card, and android. i do my sound (clrclad or w/e) and then run Haret.exe. it starts up, black screen says booting from kernel, and it goes to HTC logo. and stays there.
If you have copied the ROM to SD in a folder called "Android" to boot from SD then you would add "rel_path=Android nand_boot=0" in quotes to the line "set cmd_line=" in startup.txt in the Android directory.
Yeah... its already in there....
Got the same problem today! Tried several different SD builds with no luck. Now on darkstone SuperRAM FroYo v1.5 it restarts the phone after the green logo...
It might be a bat sd card format or maybe because i tried to do a task29 several times without success
Got it working
Flash a normal HSPL - 2.08 and unplug from USB while performing first HARET start!

[Q] Very first splash screen

Hello,
Last year I had installed a custom WM6.5 rom to my android, an "energizer" rom. The very first splash screen, the one appearing just after pressing the power button, was replaced by an energizer logo.
Then I went ahead and installed an SD card Android, but since it required WM6.5 to load first, the splash screen was still the same.
Now I installed Magldr and CWM_Recovery, then a custom NAND Android rom.
However the first splash screen of energizer is still there. I don't want it. I want my own image to be there, since it's obviously changeable. Do you know how I can change that, without harming my magldr or cwm installation?
Thanks!
you need to creat one and turn it into a nbh file, there was a tool that did all this for you, ight need to search this place for it or google
See "watermarking " link in my sig.
That seems to be the solution I've been looking for, I hope I can make it work
I'll use the 0x600 memory space, right? Because 0x601 will remove MAGLDR I have installed?

correct. .....
Great, now the very first boot image is my custom one
Then the Magldr boot sequence starts with some codes like a terminal screen. And then a HTC logo appears for several seconds. Finally an animation starts, stays there for half a minute, and the OS loads.
Now, is there a way to change the HTC logo there, the one after the magldr boot?
Too much searching, but this one got me working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12574728&postcount=5
The mount command had to be changed to the following though:
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "boot", "/boot");
However the problem is that the rle files I make up myself don't display correctly on the phone. This exact problem was faced by other people as far as I can see, so my last problem is now that I need to be able to convert a bmp file to rle that the phone can display.
And this one can create correct rle files:
http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...-bootlogo-before-animated-boot-animation.html
I'll make a tutorial tomorrow so that other people can make this easily
