MAGLDR V1.12 soon! main features: *various bug-fixes *built-in recovery support.
Now I know there's already a post. But what I'm asking for is if someone can write a brief walk through on upgrading...from old versions or clockwork.
Is it a case that you use the DFT flasher with the latest version to take the phone up to 1.12, then run the clockwork mod again? Or will clockwork not be required any more as it says it has built in recovery support?
Thought I'd get this nailed now before hundreds of questions plague the forum!
Step by step.
0. HardSPL should already be installed
1. Download and flash your carriers LATEST SHIPPED OFFICIAL ROM
2. Download and flash latest MAGLDR
3. Use latest MAGLDR to install Nand ROM of choice.
Very simple.

you can actually just flash 1.12 over 1.11 without having to go stock > HSPL first, just know that it will erase your current ROM per Cotulla it repartitions so back up your current ROM. If you're using CWM what you'd do is:
1) go into CWM and backup your ROM
2) Flash MAGLDR 1.12
3) Flash CWM
4) enter CWM and restore your backed up ROM.
If you want to do a "clean" install (recommended by some) then do as dharvey recommends, but I'd throw a task29 in there before flashing stock for that extra "clean" feeling.
edit: after re-reading your post, you have a point on maybe CWM being built into 1.12. If this is the case then you would skip step 3 and go from step 2 to accessing the built in CWM and restoring as in step 4.

Like TheATHEIST says, I don't think flashing a stock WinMo ROM makes a lot of sense here. Just flashing MAGLDR directly after task29 would be more sensible, I'd think.
Like you say, when you flash some Android ROM MAGLDR will repartition and overwrite the contents of your NAND anyway. No need to fill it with unnecessary WinMo stuff first.
Anyone here have a 1.12 beta?
I think there is no need for this thread. Cotulla should have the full instructions on how to upgrade from 1.10 or 1.11 when he has updated his post to the 1.12 build. It is too early to give update instructions for somthing that is yet to be released!

Not quite, I`m afraid. As people have mentioned before, you can just back-up everything then restore those back-ups after upgrading. Really isn`t that hard...

You would have to talk to cotulla for source code, as its closed source. It's only for hd2.

I agree. But I do a mtty- task 28, task 29 first before any new nbh. I also do a task2a but that is a bit much for most here who can't bring it back afterwards. For any interested in undoing task2a-clean let me know - not that hard -really. Damn I hope MAGLDR 1.12 can boot WM6.5 also ! and UBUNTU zImage/rootfs.ext2... Not gonna even mention wp7 although I heard it now has .pvk cracked and is LIVE. As long as bugs fixed be great: but ubuntu, ext2 support for it, and wp6 .nbh rom load from sd would be great. I am using darkstone super-nand with RAM image partition and getting OVER 4000 on QUADRANT with ABSOLUTELTY NO OVERCLOCKING. With over clocking it is crazy. Cant wait for (sorry off topic) super-nand with OC1536-smartass.
Only benefit of flashing stock rom is it does remove hspl and for some reason seems to CLEAN it out - ie: spl, radio, all nand etc. Ive been doing that and task2a AFTER enabling uselast24nand succesfully but had to make MY OWN NBH to get it back and put SPL/HSPL back onto after RSA FAIL = "bricked".
More seriously:
Anyone here know how to make magldr work with zImage and initrd from ubuntu? and mount/shrink/"yaffs" rootfs.ext2 ? maybe using initrd from CLK1.1 .nbh? or even darkstone's initrd and point onward to rootfs?

Yep. But #htc-linux is the only place to go for that but is waste: he is BUSY with two major projects . dont think he reads this but DFT do: mwang etc.
ps: darkstone-superNAND-rules: quadrant over4000 with no Overclocking at all and is Killer!
pps: Ubuntu DOES "boot" on Magldr 1.11 and gets upto keyboard and desktop - then freezes - why is this - note: must be in \linux and magldr pointed to it. It stays ALIVE a LOT longer under darkstone's supernand rom obviously due to something with ram partition? Any idea how to make it work? and keep it fully ALIVE?

Yes. You'll obviously need magldr 1.12, and you will lose Android, but you can flash WP7 directly over it.
I just flashed MAGLDR 1.12 it doesn't seem you need to reinstall android, do i need to reinstall android? Will there be bugs, etc..?

Flashing magldr alone will not do anything to your installed ROM. You don't need to worry about reinstalling Android.

Can someone post a detailed step by step guide on how to get a NAND android rom fully working on are hd2's?
1. download MAGLDR
2. download NAND Android ROM of choice.
3. Install MAGLDR on your HTC HD2 ( run ROMUpdateUtility.exe)
4. Boot HD2 and select in the menu "4. USB Flasher"(by scrolling down using the volume down key and selecting with the phone button)
5. Run ANDR_INSTALL.exe on your computer.
6. Wait while it does its thing.
7.Let it Reboot. enjoy.
And as I found out the hard way, you need HSPL 2.08 too !
Anyone know if it's possible to flash 2 Android builds to NAND? I installed the sense build by Cotulla. How would I go about trying the CM 6.1 w/o overwriting my current build?
Hi,
I read earlier that magldr would make it possible to boot WinMO from NAND and boot into Android from storage card. Tha's what I want (for now) since I'm still experimenting with Android and think I need WinMo to fallback when I ****up things.
Anyone already figured out how to do that?
TIA,
Cheers,

I agree, a sticky by one of the more experienced members in the near future would be very helpful, especially emphasizing the proper preparations and prerequisites. Because of all the hype and down right excitement and enthusiasm with Nand based Android, there's a ton of questions, information overload, and threads way too long to go through. A definite need for a one stop covers all type of sticky imho. If someone would be so kind, it would be greatly appreciated.
Nand installation thread

My wife was having trouble with Windows mobile on her HD2 and asked me to flash Android on her phone so it wouldn't constantly crash and what not.
I have:
* HSPL3 ~ SPL-2.08.HSPL
* Radio that support 576 RAM
* DFT MAGLDR Bootloader
* ClockworkMod Recovery
from this guide right here.
And I have installed this ROM via ClockworkMod instead of the ROM mentioned in the first guide because I thought Cyanogenmod 7 would be nicer.
Here is the problem, the phone has been stuck on the "HTC HD2" screen with the Android logo and "MDJ" on the bottom right corner, it has been stuck for over 30 minutes now so I'm going to assume something went wrong, the problem is that I can't figure out what. Does any one have any ideas? was something I did incompatible with anything from the 2 different guides?

I'm sorry...But which part of following the android build developer's instructions do you not get?....Fine, u decided 2 go thru CWR & i commend you for dat but it clearly states in [22 JAN] -=MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.6 [A2SD+][GRH78C][RMNET][Kernel: MDJ S10.4 OC] thread from which you got the build that you should install thus;
Installation:
You should have at least MAGLDR 1.12 on device.
For installation you need enter MAGLDR (hold power button during boot)
and select "Flasher" via "VolUp" and "VolDown". Confirm key is "green".
(The above instructions means its a DFT build NOT FLASHABLE BY CWR).....
There are 3 videos in the original post detailing HOW to properly flash this rom...Now tell me...why oh why would you go against the original dev's instructions over one posted on a blog site?...
P.S. 4give my ranting but hope i solved your very SIMPLE problem and Yes, Flashing a nand DFT build will remove your CWR installation (which means should u decide 2 flash a CWR based build? u'll have 2 install CWR again.)
You know when I was looking over at all the information again I noticed that too risght after posting this, I guess all the information I just learned made me forget about needing at least MAGLDR 1.12, my bad. I've been looking for guides on how to update to 1.12 or 1.13 I've already downloaded 1.13 but since I can't get into windows anymore I don't know how to update MAGLDR. Can you help me out with that?

For magldr 1.13, boot to bootloader (multi-colured screen) and run the romupdateutility from the download. You will then need to apply the cwm1.3 partition and then boot to AD Recovery to install the rom.
Ok I was able to update to 1.13 through the bootloader, what I don't get is "to apply the cwm1.3 partition" I'm not familiar with the meaning of cwm1.3 since it wasn't mentioned in any of the guides I just read.

It doesn't matter if you have magldr 1.12 or 1.13. What matters is installing daf vs cwm and not daf-cwm.
Based on your first post, you tried installing a daf nand rom via cwm. That is, based on the links you have given. It has been point out also by vocrane on hist post.
I'm sure this is a dumb question but, what is daf?
jorge89 said:

Click to expand...

Daf = daf.exe ie the executable file you click to install a "daf" build as opposed to a zip build which you flash via cwm from your sd card.
PS! you'll find info on cwm 1.3 here
I see, I couldn't find a daf.exe file from the downloads of the ROM I was looking at, does that mean I'll have to find another rom that is flashed via "daf.exe"?
If you need to install the rom via USB Flasher from magldr, it will either have a daf.exe or install.exe file (or should at least). The roms you flash via cwm are in zip format and have afew sub folders which you copy to your sd card (the full unzipped zip file that is) and you then boot into cwm and install the rom from sd card.
I really need to get some sleep, I just found it. I'm flashing it right now.

Here's a quick lowdown...
There r currently 2 main ways u can get android on ur hd2...
Method 1.......Thru sd card (gives u dual-boot options with either WP7 or WinMo 6.5.x
Method 2.......On Nand which installs directly on your device, thereby wiping out WinMo (u've progressed in dis path since u've installed MAGDLR 1.13)....
>>>>>>Method 2 has 2 options;
Option 1......Involves flashing a "DFT Build" via the DAF installer included in the downloaded Build...(D build by Cyanogenmod 7 u pointed out earlier has 2 be installed thru dis method)...
Option 2......Involves flashing a "Zipped Build" via the CWR method...i recommend using builds which have this installation option as they offer more flexibility (full backup & restore)...
Option 1 & Option 2 CANNOT co-exist wit each other...
hi guys i have a very strange problem
after a week that i tried wp7 i decided to go back to wm + andro sd....
i already did other times and everything was going well...
i did task29 to install my usual energy rom...copied back my usual android rom backup...but...
Android dosnt load...its stuck at "htc page" for hours...i tryed different rom...tried the same build of my backup and nothing happens...
now i went back to wp7 and set for dual boot from maglar...always stucked at htc screen...
i really need andro for google maps until wp7 have his version...im going crazy!
anyone ever had the same problem?
i tryed different wm builds before try wp7 dual boot but always the same problem
with a fresh installation of android after 2 hours of wait (i was sleeping hehe) data.img isnt created...tried to put a fresh one from the stock rom but nothing
hoping my english is understandable i say "THANKS" to all for every suggestion

Hope this is helpful.
As Nick.C has pointed out CWM = ClockWorkMod Recovery. Im assuming this is the method you are using to flash your builds.
I did not mean for u not to use task29 at all. Follow the steps below and all should be well.
1. Task29 to remove Windows Phone 7
2. Flash official WM6.5 Build (DO NOT Task29)
3. Download and use SD Formatter 3.0 to format SD Card. Set option to Full Erase and Size adjustment to ON.
4. Install MGLDR 1.13
5. Flash CWM
6. Flash your favorite android build.
just to be sure...after flash official rom...i think i need to hspl before flash maglrd
i know i should read mag installation guide...but...im stuck in highway and im too lazy to find it hehehe

If you have flashed custom roms before, then you already have HSPL installed, because u cant flash custom roms without it. HSPL is always there until you remove it, even if you flash an official or custom rom.
To flash MGLDR - Boot into the boot loader screen (Multi Color Screen) and then flash MGLDR
To flash CWM - Boot into MGLDR and select usb flasher then flash CWM. Some chefs have there own custom CWM so read there instruction so u will know if you will use the original CWM or their version.

i have a Sony X8 running a modded rom so i'm not a total noob!
but i'm a bit stuck with the HD2!
what is the simplest way for me to get Android on my HD2? (Nand not SD)
info about my HD2
CPU: QUALCOMM(R) 8250B
SPEED: 1024MHz
RAM size: 448 MB
Flash size: 512 MB
Storage size: 181.47 MB
Radio Version: 2.05.51.05_2
(if you guys need any extra info let me know!)
i have read many threads, installed the one click app & bricked my phone (restored it to Stock Rom)
once i have a working Rom Manager & get what updated driver i need i will be fine but i'm stuck getting there
all help is most welcome! i dont want to totally brick my phone trying to get away from this rather disappointing windows OS
Thanks in advance everyone
Subz
Read the sticky posts in all the HD2 Android forums. There are a lot of options, so read until you know enough to decide what you want (there are more options with the HD2 than with normal native Android phones).
Once you know what you want (which bootloader, rom, etc.), read even more until you feel you know what you need to do to get what you want. Then read some more.
All the information you need is right here in the forums, do yourself the favor of reading as much of it as you can, this will avoid a bunch of potential problems, and your next thread being titled something like 'Help pleeeease I bricked it!!!'

the magdlr option looks fine to me (i saw a old youtube video for MAGDLR1.13) but i don't get how i know what "RADIO" i need? (& the video says if i get this wrong i can Brick the phone) if bricked means "have to restore to stock rom" then that's no problem for me, but i don't want to make the phone "DEAD"
i think i will find the rom i want then ask advice about what to do with "radio" after that time so the question is more informed
Subz
That radio brick warning is for tmous phones only, you are immune to that.
Use 2.15.50 radio.
Hspl4 set 2.08.hspl***
Bootloader
USB
Flash radio 2.15.50***
Bootloader
Usb
Flash magldr
Enter magldr, USB flasher
USB
use nand toolkit to set required system partition size
Enter magldr, 8 ad recovery
This starts cwm
In cwm advanced partition SD card (this will wipe the card so save anything you need)
Put the.zip you want to flash on SD
In cwm 'flash zip from SD - choose zip
Restart,
If it hasn't booted after ten minutes pull battery and restart.
*** don't need to touch these again unless you go back to winmo.
Hi
i updated my radio to 2.15.50.14 & i updated to 2.08hspl
can i install MAGDLR & or CLG & keep the current win boot it has also?
last time i tried with the one click tool my phone just hung at the HTC screen & did nothing at boot, (had to restore to stock)
is it best i chose the rom i want to install & do MAGDLR & install new rom at the same time
i'm still open to advice on the best android rom out (Stable & Latest is my preference)
i like the one click install tool but cant find tutorials that dont assume i know what partition size is best & what to expect from MAGDLR & CLG?
not even sure how to boot in to CLG if i did get it installed
advice on ONE straight talking tutorial would be great
love you guys already

there is no 'best' partition size, , if you dont set one big enough for the rom you chose, it wont boot, , if you set one bigger than teh rom you chose, you waste space.
Each rom will tell you in post 1 what system partition size to set.

Now, do you mean CWM or cLK? CWM is for flashing the roms, cLK is an alternative to magldr. do some reading, there's more than one thread that tells you what these all are. My advice would be to stick to magldr and CWM for now. FOrget cLK till you are more experienced.

love is a many splendored thing.
ALso, many tutorials wont mention it as part of the process, but after you have flashed CWM, and before you flash the rom, go into CWM and use 'advanced - partition sd card' (back up anything you dont wanna lose)
this will walk you thru creating an EXT partition on your s card, which acts as internal memory. Doing it now will save you having to do it later and ruin an installed rom.
Thanks for all the help guys!!

Why on earth would you install MAGLDR 1.10 when 1.13 is the latest and best? Anyway, flash 1.13 then I would recommend following this guide to install NAND Android, flashing via USB Flasher is outdated, CWM is the only way to go.

1- Use a descriptive title.
2- Use the search before posting your question, being new does not you are allowed to post without searching.
3- There is no need for a step by step, there are already a gazzilion guide out there, you just have to look for them. (Look at my signature for specific HD2 search)
