Hello all.
I've been using MAGLDR since day one with Cotulla's first ROM and never had an issue until yesterday when I started using CMYLXGO's TopiaHD ROM. It would boot into MAGLDR, then it would say "Booting Android from NAND" in blue font, then "Android load at xxxxxxxxxxx", then "from NAND" in green. It will hang there for about 10-15 seconds before loading yaffs and whatnot. This wasn't happening before. This is the procedure I go through every time I flash a NAND ROM.
1. Reboot into phone's bootloader
2. Task29 w/ Radio 2.12.50.02_2
3. Install MAGLDR from phone's bootloader
4. MAGLDR loads and gives "Fail to load kernel" error (SD card is INSERTED; didn't cause an issue before) Then it brings up the 10-option menu
5. I flash the rom via "USB Flasher" (duh )
6. After installation finishes I leave USB plugged in and let the phone boot itself. This is where it gets caught at the spot above.
Even after the first initial boot (which takes about 3-4 minutes), I always do a soft reset to ensure everything works properly before using the phone. Normally, the 2nd boot-time should be cut by about 80%, but for me it hasn't been doing that. It still takes roughly 3-4 minutes to boot into NAND, and MAGLDR still hangs at "from NAND" for 10-15 seconds, EVERY TIME.
I'm so lost. I've tried a different radio and both MAGLDR v1.10 and v1.11; neither made any difference. Is MAGLDR lagging because of the build I flashed?
**ALSO**, I noticed that when flashing CMYLXGO's TopiaHD, it only wrote data to ONE partition, whereas when I flashed other ROM's, it would write a first, very small partition, then a second, larger one. Should this be happening?

I've tried cmylxgo's ROM, m-deejay's Revo HD ROM and Gauners ROM and all except the m-deejay ROM takes about 4 to 5 minutes to boot each time...no matter how long it's been installed or how many times it boots.
Currently I'm using the Gauner ROM and I have never seen the under-1 minute boot other speak of. If m-deejay had a stock DesireHD ROM, I would use it. But he doesn't and is not likely to put out strictly stock ROMs, for whatever reason.

Hello!
I have installed android on a few of my co-workers devices (both SD and NAND). One particular device, however, will not let me install it or get it to run.
When I try the NAND method, it freezes at the MAGLDR launch, no option choices, nothing.
When I try the SD method, it freezes at the launch of Haret.exe. It shows the first five lines of Commands and stops.
I've tried starting from scratch method, tried Task 29, and i've noticed that 90 percent of the custom roms ive tried keep freezing. I'm stuck on this one and i need some help!
Start again from scratch. Flash a stock ROM, flash the latest radio and the latest HSPL.
Just completed flashing HSPL3 after starting from scratch, i get the same result from both NAND boot and SD. (magldr launches with no options, Haret.exe doesnt get past the first 5 command lines

wat is the radio on that device?
OK. It's not me who have the problem and I may not provide you enough information. However, I will try as much as I can to get the info from the man who has the problem.
A friend of mine got an used HD2, with stock WinMo. The fist thing he did was of course hard-reset it. Aaand the system got ****ed up. He couldn't boot it sometimes (had a grey screen, he said with some weird text under, like Boot_W_PWE_KEY_PRESSED or BOOTUP_W_WARM_RESET after trying to install sth, few times it managed to boot up but lagged so much). I ignored it and wanted to do task29, radio, magldr, android. First thing - HSPL. Downloaded HSPL4, installed HSPL 2.08 fine. Then - Task29 + Radio. And nothing. ROM Code Error. After few tries, HTC logo and progress bar showed up. Task29 is stuck on 96% though and then displays an exclamation mark in a triangle.
After a restart, grey screen is still present.
We can't install magldr as well (dat error again).
What could go wrong?
try use HSPL3 cuz HSPL4 is for wp7 mango but not for HD2 Leo

You need to study more.
OK, so we managed to install magldr on 11th? try and on 21st try we managed to boot Android from SD.
I'm pretty sure that NAND is damaged (NAND Android and WP7 couldn't boot at all, 1E FATAL HIT, same was with Android SD, but after many tries it booted), but when the phone hangs up after trying to play Angry Birds (so much that only thing he could do was to pull out the battery) and sometimes hangs up just for a while without a particular reason means that something else is damaged as well?
Boot loader
Has he tried booting into the boot loader.
Hold the down volume button and the power key at the same time.
If he gets a multi-colored screen then he is not bricked.
By 'bricked' I mean unusable because of physical damage that doesn't allow to run the phone properly.
Oh. Also he managed to install and boot WP7. It will return a 'Fatal hit' if it won't have enough break without a battey. It boots only after few mins turned off (which makes installing cabs almost impossible D: )... It was bought used, I think it had fallen and few more components were damaged...
My friend who also has an HTC HD2 wanted Android. I already flashed my a few times so I (should) know the drill. I did the following steps:
- Ran Task 29
- Ran HSPL and selected HSPL 2.08
- Verified in the bootloader that it says HSPL 2.08
- Ran Magldr 1.13
- After reboot got into Magldr 1.13
- Ran the AmeriCanAndroid Setup file
- Selected USB Flasher in Magldr
- After the whole process it reboots and shows the AmeriCanAndroid splash screen
- after about 10 seconds it reboots, goes through magldr and shows the splash screen again.
It keeps rebooting. I never get to an Android screen or anything.
I tried to do the above steps multiple times, downloaded AmeriCanAndroid again to make sure I didn't had corrupted files, nothing unfortunately.
It seems this guy has the same problem.
I'm hoping I missed something stupid but can't think of anything. The only part I can think of that was different from flashes on my own phone is that his Radio was different. I had SPL 1.42.0000, he had SPL 1.62.0000. But as I'm using HSPL2 that shouldn't matter.
HSPL and MagLdr seems to work fine, and reading the forum thread the ROM seems to work fine.
Edit: I tried a different Radio (Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14**). This doesn't seem to solve the problem either.
Edit 2: I'm gonna try the 15.01.12 Nexus HD ICS build now, maybe that one will work.
Edit 3: I've installed ClockworkMod and the Nexus HD ICS build but it still freezes at the splash screen. (it does NOT reboot tho). Seems more people have this issue with this build tho, I'm hoping bad luck twice.
it seems you're not the only one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21508565&postcount=1292
Yes indeed, I didn't want to give the fault to the ROM (Even if it is, don't want to disrespect the effort of the builder) but it seems I really excluded every other problem it could be. I'm now looking for the 11.01.12 build, but can't find it.
Edit: I did find the 11.01.12 build SD, but no NAND.
So i have tried some more builds, latest one being the TyphooN stable 3.7.0 but no luck either. Every build seems to hang at it's splash screen. Is this a hardware issue?
Hi, Tried installing my first Nexus ICS Android on HTC HD2
following instruction here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434860
Got to the point where I got MAGLDR v1.13 installed and running.
Then found that I needed HD2 Android NAND Tool and Repartitioned System size to 200 Mb
using USB flasher mode on the MAGLDR.
Then NAND Tool suggested that running Wipe(taks 29) to be a good idea before attempting to install Android so I tried running this as well.
I got the phone into tri-colour USB mode and started wipe. USB mode disappeared replaced by HTC progress bar but it got stuck at 0% and timedout.
I tried recovering to HTC original WWE ROM but it also gets stuck at 0% progress.
Currently Bootloader starts and loads a options, I can also go into USB mode but nothing will start updating the phone it gets stuck at 0%.
I think what repartitioning created a problem but I am unsure how to recover it and need your help!

Wrong forum, should be in the Q&A. You'd have thought it would be obvious, seeing as you're asking a QUESTION, but somehow people don't pick that up
Also, you really need to read more. There isn't any point in installing MAGLDR then Task29ing, in fact there is very little point in Task29ing at all unless you experience major problems with your phone. A simple data wipe (in CWM) and repartition has never failed me.
If you did a task 29 after doing the other steps first then you wiped everything back off. Install magldr again then CWM and then install your rom of choice.
Also for being a member since 2005 you should know not to EVER post a question in development.
Mods please move to Q&A

Sorry for posting it in the wrong forum.
Many thanks for the comments...I cannot install anything at present because once update process starts it times out at 0%. Task29 did not work either - it also gets stuck at 0%.
Only thing that works is Boot loader and USB mode.
As Boot loader is working I tried to install NAND Android following this instruction:
2. FLASH YOUR ANDROID ROM
The Original NAND Android Thread by Cotulla is *HERE*
NOTE1: This section is only applicable AFTER you have flashed MAGLDR to your Device
NOTE2: Make sure your phone is still connected via usb cable before starting
* When your phone Reboots it will Enter the MAGLDR Boot Menu Screen *
1. Press the 'Volume Down' button to goto Option 5: USB Flasher and press the 'Call' button (far left of the 5 hardware buttons at the bottom)
2. The menu will enter Android Flasher mode and install usb drivers if not present
3. Browse to the folder you extracted your NAND Android Package files to on your pc, right click on Run DAF.exe (or Install.exe if DAF.exe isnt present) and select Run as Administrator
But DAF is giving this error back:
Error happen
Read below for more information
Error Description: USB init failed
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (723)
thats all old instructuions.
go get the nand toolkit, and also get hspl3
...
phone into bootloader (tri colour screen, not magldr)
connect usb
run hspl3
choose 2.08.hspl (don't assume its already 2.08.hspl, check it, hanging at 0% is often a sign of no hspl)
when reboots immediately go back into bootloader
*(* from here on you can do all this in the nand toolkit*)*
flash magldr
when it reboots enter magldr
(if phone hangs on a htc screen and doesn't show magldr, you need to flash radio 2.15.50)
phone into magldr
connect usb
choose 'usb flasher'
in toolkit select desired system partition size and cache size
when its finished
phone back into magldr
choose 'ad nand'
this starts cwm
(if you havent yet partitioned your sd card with an ext partitio, look ity up and do it now)
select 'install zip from sd'
select zip from sd
browse to where you dropped the rom.zip file onto your sd card.
when it reboots you're done, , alternatively it failed somewhere, , which step?
if you get apparent driver errors, theres a nice big button called drivers in the toolkit (i think?)
Many thanks that worked like clockwork
Earlier today my custom ROM froze. I rebooted the phone by taking the battery out and the phone would only go as far as the Magldr screen where it says "Go Go Go", no matter how many times I tried, the ROM wouldn't boot.
So I wiped my phone with Task29 (even tried installing an original WM6.5 ROM), and tried to reinstall Magldr and a new ROM. However, after I run Task29 and Magldr and turn the phone on, only the white HTC screen displays. I could not get the phone to display the Magldr menu.
Finally after repeating the above a couple of times, I managed to get the Magldr menu to display, but once I install the CM Recovery and enter AD Recovery to install the new ROM, Magldr again gets stuck after displaying 'Go Go Go!'.
I also note that as the phone boots up into Magldr, one of the lines say "nand kernel open failed".
Any idea what is happening and why I cannot boot into Ad Recovery (or my ROM) and always get stuck on 'Go Go Go!'?
it could be a corrupted NAND ic?
have you tried to boot SD?

A clean install of the original Windows Mobile 6.5 boots and works. How could I rectify a corrupted NAND in this case?

if that is the case it seems like your nand is OK or there could be just soem bad blocks(i'm just guessing here)
how about giving this a try then run an SD version before going to NAND version
.. run HD2 toolkit
...bootloader
- HSPL 2.08
- Task 29
- Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14 >>> not necessary if you have it already
- MagLDR
- MagLDR Repartition 300/ 45
...boot to magldr
- Magldr
- Service
