Go here and read instructions. If you cant follow them it means you haven't read any of the guides in stickies.
PS.
You dont have to manually put a "Q" or put the date in your topic title.

The "best" way to learn bud is to do some real reading. I know it can be a bit daunting at first but honestly its the best way. Been walked through something is too easy and you wont pick up valuable information as much as you would if you worked it our yourself.
There is some really good guides to follow, have a look through them and have a go.

i cant see this page
who i can do to this content???

Struggling while installing Android 2.3 Gingerbread on HTC HD2 (NAND)
Thanks guys for your prompt replies. This my situation: I installed Android 2.2 on my HTC HD2 with
RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2
Radio_15.42.50.11U
2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship
HSPL 2.08
MAGLDR V1.13
Android 2.2
Everything works great. Recently, I wanted to upgrade to Android 2.3 Gingerbread so to I upgraded successfully the MAGLDR1.11 to MAGLDR1.13.
Now, I spent a longtime reading your replies to the other users and it seems my case is a bit special, therefore I have 2 questions:
1- The MAGLDR113_DAF file I downloaded contains the ROMUpdateUtility (that you advise users to use) and also has a DAF file. I can see clearly at system start up that my MAGLDR is 1.13. So, does this mean am good? or do I still need to open the DAF through the tri colour screen bootloader, as some have suggested? Please help clarify my confusion.
2- I downloaded Android 2.3 Gingerbread on HTC HD2 (NAND) and extracted it to my 8GB SD card root, when I open the Android folder on my HD2 and tap on CLRCAD.exe, I get "file type exe not found" message, I tried with haret.exe as well but I always get the same message. Could anyone advise what I am doing wrong?
By the way, I used first a 2GB SD card, after being formatted, in vain then formatted a 8GB SD card, copy, paste Android folder on root, in vain. always same message.
Thank you very much guys and once again, I really appreciate your time and patience with us.

well if you're going for NAND you should not been able to toutch the CLRCAD.exe/Haret.exe wich probably means that you've downloaded a SD build.
you should go to the NAND section of this forum and find a rom there.
the instructions for installing a NAND rom are in de first few post by the dev himself.
goodluck

[Q] Need help to install MIUIJaws on my HD2!!

Hi everyone!!
Well, this is not my first time flashing an android ROM on my HD2, but... this is my first time with Clockwork!
And, I'm lost...
I want this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902013
And I really don't know how this work, 'cause even if I check the forum about clockwork mod ( yep, I'm french! ), I don't get it...
So, does anyone can make a step by step installation for me please? This will be the only things I'll ask, it's just to understand how to used CWM!
Just, imagine I only got a fresh install of MAGLDR 1.11, and... please tell me what to do next! I don't know if I should partition My SD card, or if CWM do it himself, or etc.
For this one, I don't want the data on my FAT32 partition's, but on the ext3/4(? don't know what I must choose between those ) partition.
And, really, thanks for all that's really great work on our HD2! Probably the best Mobile I'd get in my life!!
PS: as I told it before, sorry for my bad english, I'm french... thank you.

well you should post aboit it in lesjaws post and not here..
anyway, have a look on my post #964
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11174148&postcount=964
in JawsMIUI so thats may help you or if not and you will still have a probs with something just post it there not here. Not everyone checking all posts here on XDA so you have a better chance someone will help you cos all user of JawsMIUI checking the posts about JawsMIUI. And many are actually subscribed to it like me so I always receive notification email if some new is posted there.
And about ext partition, u need to know so many people have an issues with this option including me so I using data.img instead and its woks great.

Thanks a lot!
Well, I can't post in the android ROM forum, 'cause I'm new and I need at least 10 post to post message in this section... that's why I made a topic like this!
thanks for your tutorial, it will really help me!
I always prefer ext partition... but if you tell me data is okay, well, I'm gonna try it! Some people tell me they have problem with data corrupted...
By the way, does data use the battery, less, more or equal to ext partitions?

you're welcome.
You can also express your gratitude in just clicking the thanks-icon at the bottom of my post.
About the battery usage, I can't tell u if there is a difference between ext & data.img cos ext didn't work for me and after I haven't tried it anymore.
EDIT:Let me know if u need any more help and also post the info when u finish the flash and if is all OK.
Cheers

people seem to forget that not everyone is as knowledgable as many on here and belittling them doesnt really inspire much confidence from people on here

I would agree if it was somthing technical, but something as simple as a topic title or difference between the word "nand" and a version number of OS?!?
the reason why these questions dont get a warm welcome is because the posters dont take 5 minutes to read teh rom instructions or even the guides that are posted in the sticky topics.
Its quite amazing that some people even get as far as flashing magldr

[Q] Afraid of bricking. How to prevent?

Hi everyone!
I'd like to install NAND Android on my HTC HD2. I'm really,really afraid of doing this because of the bricking posibility.
Can I do it in any safe way, like creating a backup of WinMo 6.5 ROM and installing it in case Android install goes wrong?
Or maybe someone can point me in the right direction on how to do everything safe? What should I NOT do?
Please help me guys, I'd really appreciate it!

Look in the nand android thread and go to the "sticky roll-up thread " and click on the intruction guide for noobs and read it realy good. Follow intructions (watch the video) , if you do as said in the instructions, nothing can go wrong.

Yeah like posted, as long as you follow the directions you should be fine. Read through the Noob thread a couple times and ask about anything you do not understand before attempting to do it, there are a lot of experienced users here (myself included) who can assist you with questions.
