oh dear oh dear,to be polite here.you can either have Nand wich was for the HD2 was designed so that Android can be run off the phones memory were Windows mobile is or you can have SD wich basicly Android runs off SD but relys on Windows Mobile so the Answer to your Question is no You deffinently cant port Nand to SD

its not just convert system,img to ext2 and put kernel ?

The OP is asking for a way to get a NAND build and use it as an SD build, most likely. I doubt that is possible, Proz00, but you should definetly ask a dev, they are the only ones who can give you a clear answer.

[Q] convert cwr/nand to sd build ?

Any body know a noobish way to convert cwr zip's to a SD (boot from haret/WM) ?
Thank's in advance !

There is no noobish way to do that...

You know an other way you can share maybe?

I am 100% sure it cannot be done easily, never heard of a method to convert it anyway. I am not a chef,but I guess you have to cook it separately, just ask the chef of a ROM you'd liked to have in a NAND form, and maybe (but probably not) he will cook a nand version.

Its just that i wanna change the clockwork file's to a SD build.
If i extract the cwr zip file ,i have no system.ext file ,its a system folder.
Haret is missing to ..

Excellent, but I need a one-click Windows solution. That is way beyond me.

Use VirtualBox my friend.

Right now, it is all a blur. I am getting too old for this, methinks. But... I have not yet thrown in the towel.

thats why a few posts up it was saiud no easy method of doing it
unfortunately if it was as simple as 1 click then everyone would be making their own roms

The fact that it was said that there is no easy method is sufficient to get our developers going -- they will create such a solution, since it would be considered a challenge.
This is XDA after all.

[Q] Transforming a nand rom to an sd rom

As wrote in the title.. because of the new miui are not more producted in via sd I would like to produce it but I don't know how is possible.. are there people that can say me how is it possible to do it?
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!

Technically it should be possible by converting the system files from a nand build to a system.ext2 file and using an sd initrd.gz, and I had several devs trying to teach me to do it but I was never able to get it to boot. I never tried converting a miui rom though so who knows.

i havent actually done it but i am able to port most of the roms except apps and framework. the second i do that it wont boot

I have the same question because I want to use MIUI 1.4.1 too. Or is there somebody that wanna do it?

How do you convert the system files from a nand build to a system.ext2?

genext2fs -d <source-folder> -b <size of ext2> system.ext2

^Bscly. Of course it requires a Linux box.

in order to get the build to boot you'll have to correctly mod the files in linux

Go to the roms page in miui-dev's page (sorry can't post links, not allowed yet, google miui-dev) and scroll all the way down. It's the last device listed.

Great, thanks a lot. downloading right now. will try tomorrow.
I wish there could be a manual/tutorial how to do it. I hate begging people to get it done for SD. I doubt your chef would be doing every new version of MUIU to SD. That's why it would be great to learn so that me and others like myself could do it on our own.
Thanks for getting this build converted.

All MIUI roms needs language pack after installation. In the earlier SD builds, the language pack was placed in the root folder and the device reboot would update the language pack.

BTW someone already ported the 1.4.8 build for SD/MAGLDR in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12839635&postcount=206

Just an idea... shall we form a team, create a thread "Porter Series SD Roms" or something like that and try porting all the NAND roms to SD build?
But are there any rules in XDA that prohibits us from doing this? Did not want to end up being banned here.

I downloaded this one but it doesn't look like it's for SD build. There is no haret file to start it. It's in a NAND format.

May be waiting for somebody convert from NAND to SD build.

yes..me too..I would like to see a tutorial how to convert a nand rom to and sd rom!
..Please is there someone?

sorry for being a bumper but...
bump.
(lots of new nand roms that i would like to try, while keeping wp7...)
a porting guide would be sensationable

I know but...help?

So I've seen many posts about porting android from other devices to this mobile , and 2 of them use SD-card boot using haret and some other files.
My question is , how do they create their own boot from SD ROM? I know this is the wrong section but I'm desperate , I'm trying to keep my winmo and have ICS at the same time , any help appreciated.

I'm Sorry, I don't know how to create or doing that.
I'm busy to make changes in NAND ROM bugs, WinMo has became useless and out dated from Microsoft totally.
please make sure that you post in general Q.

thanks for the reply ,
so I found the system.ext2 from the CM7.2 and replaced the files inside with the files from your ROM 9.1 , (I copied the files from the folder system).
My question is , does any initrd.gz and any zKernel work? Or everyone is different? (this is basic android and not basic SD , so please help!)
thanks

zImage is the kernel, so you can't do cm7 kernel with cm9 kernel.

so is there anyway to convert your CM9's Kernel to a zImage? Or where can I find it?Because I'm trying to keep my WinMo and make my own Boot From SD CM9.
thanks
EDIT: How about extracting the zImage from your boot.img and then using it ....I believe it should work , or I must use some more editing?

Yes, you are trying to boot a still-under-development ROM. It still has a lot of bugs. But if you are insistent, read through the pages of that thread and you will find answers . (one of them is another zip for eu HD2)
Edit: First page has v0.7 which afaik works on eu.

If I understood correctly there is a script that asks before installing the version of EU or TMO. When I installed this question was not.
sorry for my english - using translator sometimes)

Do you have an EXT partition on your SD card? If you do, then try increasing your /system partition to account for any potential bad blocks.

And redownload the ROM from the first post as it is updated to support EU version.

Hah, I wish I had that power for some of the threads that get posted here (not yours, things like best ROM questions) but only mods can close threads.

Someone installed v0.9 ? What parametrs you set ?
I can't boot this rom =(
