[Q] Android worked fine now has stopped - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Have had Android working and booting fine for the week, battery went flat last night , now android wont boot, goes to the grnn HTC icon n then stops, I have waited half an hour still with nothing, as ive said its not the first time its been booted. I have searched on here but they all seem to be new installs that are having problems. Any idea ?

I am getting same issue. Android was very nice, fast boot and so on. But since tomorrow, when booting to Android it stays on startup screen with green htc.

Sounds like possible data corruption if system did not shutoff gracefully. Not a good idea to let low battery shut off system... you should shut it off manually. I have had this happen on WM where the phone get into a weird state and data get corrupted.
I would backup the data.img file, let Android create a new one to see if it boots properly. Then restore the original data.img file and see if it boots with that one.

Which build are you using?

Same Here!
Battery went flat, tried booting android a few times but didnt succeed. So rebooted the phone to find..
The android boot screen repeats itself. Over and over. Was fine yesterday.
Going to try backing up the data.img and restoring it after it rebuilds as mentioned above.
UPDATE :
After backing up the data.img file, and letting it rebuild, one hour later, still not booted.. So restarted the phone, put the old data.img back, started up haret.exe, and its now stuck on the Green HTC logo.. and isnt moving.. at all.
This isnt my first boot.. usually it boots within a couple of minutes.

Latest Android build. FroyoStone version3.2

Android not rebooting after flat battery
Hi TommyHD2,
I have just had the same problem, actually a couple of times. What I did was to delete all the new entries that had been made on my micro SD card and only leaving the original 8 files that are in the FroyoStone 3.2.7z Android folder and of course I did not delete the media folder that is also included in the build. Well twice now I have done this with a successful reboot of Android whilst not losing any of the settings that I had made ie. Wallpaper, shortcuts etc even apps (unless they are on the card).....Obviously this will now be a case of trial and error to establish which of the deleted files it is that cause a conflict in the reboot. I am also new to this but reading this someone may be able to idntify the problem easily. Other than that it runs superb....EVERYTHING works....well battery drain but I think that is even solved now thanks to XDA.....I will let you know in about four hours
Good luck

Radio - 2.15.50

.7z is the file extension (like .rar, .zip, .doc) and not the version.

Froyostone version confusion
HI Hidnface,
I don't know what sort of smile that is ....sarcastic or friendly but thanks all the same. Bit dumb of me but then I am still learning.
By the way I found that when you boot into Anroid you are left with a folder calle Android_Secure....I dont know what thois does but this is the one I delete to enable successful reboot.
Thanks mate.

have you guys tryed doing a logcat of it booting? whats it erroring at? is it looping?
search adb logcat. android is verry easy to debug since you can watch processes in a comand line...

[Q] Jumping to Kernel!!!

I need help with the HD2 jumping to kernel i have tried different builds and roms and nothing fixes it!
I have this crap as well. Have tried startup files..etc, nothing seems to help.
I'm using the latest Energy cookie rom and the newest (TMOUS) radio as well.
I have to re-boot like 2-3 times before I get past the 'Jumping to kernel...'
If someone knows whats causing this and how to avoid it, let us know.
I cant even install it ive tried everything ive found on here with no luck.
Having same issue here.. havent even managed to boot once.
Always stuck at "Jumping to Kernel"
Tried reading as much as i can, renaming startup.txt .. booting as fast as winmo opens or waiting... nothing.
Please if some1 can help it would be much appreciated..
Thanks
same problem here. I just got my hd2 and have been using froyosense v2 pretty much with no problems until this morning when I tried booting android. I'm going to tried formatting later on when I have some time.
formatting my sd card didn't help, i still had the same issue. i wasn't using any loaders so i decided to install one. i installed this one mskip_Android_Loader_V4.1.cab and used the option to soft reset and boot android and now i was able to boot into android.
[edit]
btw, here's where i got it from [APP] Android Loader v4.1 for HD2
Thanks ill be sure to try that out and see how it works.
I've been using the bootloader as well for some time now and still get the 'Jumping to kernel...' on/off. Its unpredictable..sometimes it'll boot 2-3 times in a row no issues, other times It would freeze once, other times it would freeze twice in a row...
I'm lost just as much as all of you.
I'm using a T-Mobile HD2 / HSPL 3 / Radio 2.12.50.2 / Energy Cookie ROM / Bangsters Android v1.2a
Ya that bootloader didnt do the trick. I still havent even gotten it to boot one time!
Edit:Just found somethin. When i tried to boot it told me kernel relocated to 0x11808000 which i noticed was different from the startup text line
"set ramaddr 0x11800000"
So I changed that to "ramaddr 0x11808000" and i got it to boot past the kernel thing but it eventually just rebooted the phone.
I think there is one more edit to the line
"set ramsize 0x1e400000" that will make it work ill try to figure it out.
i've been using android exclusively, but i noticed that if i don't boot into android quickly right after a reset i get stuck in the jumping to kernel. from what i've read this what supposedly fixed in the latest kernel. i'm now using mattc 1.7 as is, not sure if maybe i should've upgraded something, but i'm fine with having to boot into android quickly.

Correct. Every time I want to boot into Android, I usually do it on a fresh Windows boot. If I've been using Windows for some time, I usually do a reboot and then immediately load Android; since I've been doing this, never had the recurrence of 'jumping to kernel...'
I have resolved the problem using only the latest version of official rom by HTC without HSPL or anything else

[Q] android stop working

Okay this is my first ever thread so pls dont bash on where its posted. So the problem is, is that my android on hd2 would stop working after I reboot my phone. Idk why but it just hangs at the boot screen, which is white and has HTC on it. This has happened with every android rom I use and I can't even find answers when I google the problem. I'm using the htc energy rom and a 32gb sd card.
Strange i have exaclty the same! i updated to MccM HD 3Beta two days ago. Ill try another now and see what happpen
Questions belong in the Q&A Forum
No bashing just a friendly bit of advise for future reference.
Mark.
I've been going through different android roms and everytime I reboot into the wm energy rom I can't boot back into android. At this point I'm afraid to turn of my hd2, but I need to so I can recalibrate my battery stat.

What kind of details will help u?

Android was smoothly worked before the problem.
And I feel it was not stable with the SD card, for example i put some files on it by using the USB and after I check them from the phone not all are there.
And the problem began when the android said "save remove for SD card"
After second it shakes. I remove the battery to reboot it and it is just can't complete booting to android. It is stop at HTC white start screen.
For me the same,
I use a Android rom and when I launch Android, it doesn't leave the HTC screen. I kept it running all night long, but it didn't work. All my contact and text messages are in Android and now I can't reach them anymore, what should I do?

i make a temporary Solution =P
i replace all the "SDcard/Android" files except "data.img"
because "data.img" contain all data we build
try it and give me ur feed back ^_^
I have problem booting to andriod too, since yesterday morning, i was using android, the screen was freeze, so i restarted the phone and reboot to android. So as usual, i went to the android folder and trying to boot to android, then i got this error message "The file HARET cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannt be found. If the proble persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file." I have no idea why this happened all in a sudden. so I've tried many times and restarted my phone to see if it would help, but it didn't. then I thought maybe the android wasn't updated, so I went back to the forum and found the updated version, but mine was discontiuned. I downloaded a new build and I erased everything on my SD card and gave it a try, but the same thing still happen. I still got that error message. would anyone know why? I'm desparated to go back to android.

newbie help [BUILD][19.12.10]-=MDJ FroYo HD v.4.6=-[FRG83D][kernel:MDJ S8.0]

hi all, just got my hands on a htc hd2 and iv loaded [BUILD][19.12.10]-=MDJ FroYo HD v.4.6=-[FRG83D][kernel:MDJ S8.0] onto it no problem, got it running great, only thing is when i switch the phone off and back on it loads windows mobile again, then i have to run the android files again and let it install itself again, in the mean time losing all my settings, iv read theres a way to autoboot android on startup but cant really find anything about it, is this possible, and if so could someone run me through how to do it, wouldnt mind if it was just to reboot the android firmware, but when im losing all my settings and apps its no good, any help on this much appreciated as im still a newbie really to this phone.
When you boot up android from SD card, the first boot usually takes 10-15 minutes (varies from build to build). During this first startup, a new file in your android folder is created called 'data.img'. This is the file which your android build uses to store all the settings/apps/customisation etc.
When you restart your phone, before you boot into android, look in your android folder for 'data.img'. If it is missing then the android startup will take 10-15 minutes again, but if it is present it should only take 2-3 minutes. If it takes 10-15 minutes every time then you probably want to re-download the build and try again.
Also, dual-booting options are available, but check to see if this works first.

thanks mate, i noticed when i reloaded it again after switching off that my settings and apps were still there, which is good, but now id like to be able to boot straight into android, is that at all possible, im sure i read something earlier about it, but i cant find it again, would be cracking if i could load android on boot up!

[Q] Mobile Network Unavailable After Installing Gingerbread

Last night I installed Gingerbread 2.3.1 on my HTC HD2.. Followed the directions exactly and was able to boot Android and customize and had no problems. Tonight, suddenly my buttons at the bottom (home button, start menu, back, etc) started flashing -- side note: if anyone knows why this happens and how that can be stopped please let me know!! --, I figured I would just restart my phone. Well, when I restarted, suddenly I had no service when I booted Android.
I have rebooted my phone in the different methods (reboot, recovery, and bootloader), tried powering it off and then turning it back on, tried putting it on airplane mode (dunno why) and then back off, took out the battery and sim and waited for 20 min and then put it back in... Nothing has had any luck.
When I boot Windows Mobile, I have a phone signal, but for some reason when I'm booting Android, it isn't there.
Anyone else have a similar problem or can suggest how to fix this? I really want to be able to continue using Android but that's not going to happen if it continues to have this problem...
Flash official windows again, then try NAND Gingerbread 2.3.4 Its great ROM and all works.

try a different rom, the flashing buttons was common on early builds of gingerbread
i take it you are using an sd version rather than nand ?
Try switching to 2G only and see if your signal is back.

Yes, I'm using SD version... To be honest, I didn't really know the difference, but from what I was told NAND basically erases Windows, right? If that's correct, I was afraid of the installation not going right and being stuck without a working phone.

I tried going to my settings to switch to 2G, but at first it was greyed out, so I couldn't even select it. Then I clicked Access Point Networks and went back and suddenly it was available to be clicked. I clicked it and went to another screen and for some reason decided to go back to check it and it had been unclicked and greyed out again....
Seems it's a problem related to your rom and not a hardware problem because it works on wm.
Im not familiar with SD roms, maybe you should try a different SD rom or a NAND rom and see if the problem is solved.
Hope u get it sorted !
Since it seems I just need to try a different rom, can anyone suggest a link? I think I want to try SD again just because if I'm having these problems I don't want to completely wipe Windows and not have something to resort back to if I run into something again..

Honestly I don't want to NAND it because I don't want to completely wipe Windows in case I have a problem again... (this is all assuming I understand NAND correctly)... Right now I have a problem so I was able to go back to Windows Mobile. Do you have any suggestions for another SD rom?
Not quite true. You can always go back to Winmo from Android Nand if you are unhappy with it. I used to think the same way but since taking the plunge I've always found it easy to reinstall Winmo in order to use my tomtom navigator
ROM wise there are various fantastic offerings with Android Nand. Some are even spotting the new sense 3. You can try either CoreDroid or LeoRC Mix.
For now head over to the Nand section and read the stickies at the top. There are ample and easy guides on how to prepare your HD2 for a Nand Rom and how you can return to Winmo if you don't like it. If you follow the instructions properly, trust me nothing will go wrong.

HTC HD2 American Android

Ok I'm having some trouble getting American Android installed. I downloaded the android folder and transferred it to the sd card folder on my phone I then ran the clrcad followed by the haret and it looks like its going well but then it stays stuck in a grey screen that says "Powered by AmeriCan Android". How do I fix this?
On my phone, I just pulled battery and started over. 1st boot is usually longer. My problem is trying to get nand going.
Ok but did you get the grey screen of death like I mentioned above?

It's not SOD, it's just custom replacement of the first boot logo (normally it's green HTC on black background) done by ACA team. dabza is right - pull the battery and start over, if it does not help try again or search the ACA thread for clues.
Also - be aware that depending on your card speed, the first boot can take up to 15 minutes (maybe longer).
Anyway, good choice, it's a great ROM, hope it works for you.

It's not stuck. First boot always takes 15+ minutes while it builds a 1gb data.img file, all subsequent boots are much faster.
Just put the phone down and come back in 20 minutes.
NAND is very simple, easiest approach will be to get all the files u need before doing anything, u need like 6 files
Radio ROM
MAGLADR
Clockwork Rec MOD
some toehr file that manipulated ur ROM size
actually rom.........5 files
its worth it, my HD2 isawesome with the Nexus rom on it
