Since MagLdr release, i have never seen any build that is compatible to run from magldr's "Boot AD SD" option, am i missing something?
from what i understood and tried by myself (after unfortunatelly losing my setup) normal SD build are not compatible with this option.
How can i convert normal SD or NAND roms to run from SD with this magldr option?
It's not something you'd call compatible, but with a little bit of work all of the sd builds that uses the cedesmith initrd can be modified pretty easily to boot from magldr. I've done it with JDMS, HD2ONE and desire_hd2 so far, and letama has posted the modified superram one. I'm sure the DesireZ works the same. You can find the instructions he posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10314695&postcount=807
It's literally just adding nand_init to one line in init.rc
There is a thread released today which will tell you step by step how to convert Nand Roms into Zip Rom so you can flash it anytime from SD card through Clockwork Mod Recovery.

the question is , how to convert the NAND boot rom to SD boot, not CMR!
CMR is just another method to flash NAND Roms, without a data cable
sorry, but i dont understand how this works. the post explaining the procedure is not very clear to me. could someone be of any help and make it a little bit more noob proof?
i have phone numbers and text messages on a sd card android rom which i need badly.

no, that's not correct! MAGLDR provides you also the possibility of booting from SD card after some adjustments (so not yet possible with ubuntu). dcordes already reported that he will try to boot ubuntu directly from MAGLDR and also post instructions for 0.3 conversion if it will be trivial

Depends on your nand partition layout etc also - ie: daf? clockworked? etc?
I used sd card with initrd.cpio.gz renamed initrd.gz and same for adb_zimage to zImage. cant get that to stick though so tried with zimage/initrd from the DFT-Android-BOOT.IMG(unyaffs'd) and thus far can get to UBUNTU MOUSE/KEYBOARD then blank/frozen. Some ppl have it working with keyboard I think... We need someone to cut it down and mount/merge rootfs.ext2 into boot.img+system.img (with fixed zImage+initrd.gz) and/or a clocked update.zip for clockwork.
It works though: try it: even just putting zimage and initrd (renamed of course) in root will get verobone 'nix output...
Anyone here can make boot.img+system.img+yaffs-the-ext2. ? or update.zip
or even JUST CORRECT INITRD.GZ+zIMAGE properly?
Would be happy with ANYTHING: even to just TYPE! at a [email protected] Linux on HD2.
Thanks.

Hi guys,
I have read this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021837
I am using a HTC HD2 (international version)
I would like to know if it's possible to do the following?
- boot MIUI (http://www.miui.com/download.html) from SD card
From what I have read about MAGLDR, it seemed that I can copy MIUI to SD, and select option 2 in MAGLDR...........
Quoted:
Option #2
Boot AD SD, this will in the future allow you to boot Android from your SD card, but as for now it is not working just yet. This option also allows you to boot other Android specific software such as Clock Work Mod Recovery(CWM) that you have placed specific files for on your SD card. This option is not really needed for CWM as you no longer have to place files for it on your SD card you can flash it straight to NAND.
But it seemed that I need to burn MAGLDR into my phone, which I am afraid of bricking it............
Could someone let me know if I have the whole concept wrong?
Is it possible to run Haret after booting into Win6.5 to run MIUI (http://www.miui.com/download.html) from SD?
i think these tutorials answered by questions............but still a bit afraid to brick my phone..........

The thread of the rom you are trying to install.
Oh! Okay, I thought making it a bigger size will allow it to have more access to disk space for it's OS + programs, okay, I'll look into this area
How bigger the CWM partition, the bigger the OS space, which you can't use for apps.
But I can choose to install apps in SD card?

That one is running from NAND. Follow his tutorial to get it running.
hmmmmmmm, okay.........let me try it again...........
Was doing the CMW thingy,
It failed with:
USB Init Failed...........
The thing is I have 1.3 of CMW, and the tutorial wants me to flash a v1.2 of CMW

Eelkede, from his post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11894125#post11894125)
can you tell which size of CMW should I flash?
I might go here to reflash the correct size (v1.3 instead of v1.2)
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898913)
btw, I used this to help me flash..............
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...kmod-recovery-on-android-htc-hd2-with-magldr/
150 mb is enough (you can edit it to a lower number, but let's just start normal)
Follow the Instructions you posted.
Put the .zip of the ROM on your sd card
Reboot phone, open the CWM (AD Recovery).
Select: Install Zip from sd card, find the .zip, install. Let it boot (it can take a while, just leave it).
Optional: Install (same way as rom) Language pack, reboot.
Done.
Oh! I used http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...kmod-recovery-on-android-htc-hd2-with-magldr/
and flashed to 250MB and it's working now!
One thing I noticed; I was using Win6.5 + loading MIUI from SD using Harret, and this is faster than the one I had loaded in NAND..........
You mean it loads faster? or does it handles faster (in android)?
Could be, always reboot a few times before making a final judgement. You can try overclocking your device.
Glad I could help, have fun with MIUI on your device!
Is there a possibility that we can have 2 Android OS simultaneously i.e, MAGLDR version & SD Card version..???

Get a CWM NAND ROM and put the rom.zip on your phone's sd card and flash it via Clockwork.
Then get an sd build, extract it to your sd card, and follow all the installation steps in the thread you downloaded it from.
You boot the sd build from the MAGLDR menu by chooding AD SD, but first you must set your sd directory. To do this, in the MAGLDR menu choose Services, BootSettings, then AD SD Dir, and choose the directory of your sd build.
Once you have flashed MAGLDR and CWM, you must hold down the Power button while booting up your phone to get to the MAGLDR menu.
Make sure you flash the right partition size for the ROM you'll be flashing to NAND

I'm currently trying to install an Android dual boot setup. I installed a NAND Android (TBD SensationXL v2.5) which works already quite well for me.

Your steps should be as follows
1. Download an SD Android ROM with MAGLDR contents as well
2. Rename folder to whatever you like but the startup.txt MUST have rel_path= same name as folder
3. Place folder on root of SD card
4. Go to Services>AD SD Dir>Desired folder (in MAGLDR)
5. Select 'Boot AD SD' (or whatever the Android SD boot option is)
Oh, and reactivating the thread is infinitely better then starting a new one

Part of the beauty of having WP7 on NAND and Android on SD is that you can have as many Android ROMs as you can fit on your card and you can boot into any of them as you please. But say I want to install Android on NAND. Can I still be able to have that one Android ROM on NAND, but multiple other Android ROM's on SD?
Simple... If I want to be able to boot into more than one OS, must I have WP7 on NAND? If so, is there any guide for this? I cannot find one in the main sticky.
Good question, It would be good if you could switch and chang based on mood.
You can have Android on NAND and as many sd builds as you want, same as with WP7. Until my HD2 broke a few days ago, thats just what II did, a DHD build, a MIUI build, and a CM7 build on sd, with UD on NAND. Just have to choose your AD SD directory in magldr's 'services', and then boot AD SD.

I do not think you can due to the fact that you have to run the HARET program. It only runs under Windows Mobile as Android does not run .EXE files.

Well, I saw several builds in the NAND Android forum that specify they support MAGLDR. No need for haret. Here's some of them: LeoRCMix, JW MIUI, HardDroid2. So I didn't think that was a limitation.

How do you partition your card for this setup? Is there a guide somewhere you can link here please? Or is it the same procedure you use to partition your card when you're running WP7 on NAND and Android on SD (which I've followed before)?
Any advise whether NAND build or SD build is better? In terms of performance I mean.
NAND builds will usually be faster.
As far as partitioning your card, with Android it's not necessary, you can do everything on a single Fat32 partition, unless you want to use A2SD then you'll want a single (primary) Fat32 and a single (primary) ext3 or ext4 partition for your apps/dalvik-cache. I recommend using DarkTremor's A2SD script with your NAND ROM, and if you use the DHD build in my sig, then it will automatically detect your ext3 and you'll automatically have the installed apps from your NAND on your sd build.

sd android builds for magldr will work if you have another android in nand,but the kernel for sd build must not be a nand kernel.for example if you have a sense build in nand and you go to start from sd a build that has tytung r10 or rafpigna kernel the kernel will start but for some strange reason it will load the nand build and not the sd build.then if you go to settings you`ll see that the kernel is changed and you have error wifi because of different kernel modules.this at least happens to me,every time i tried to start a magldr sd build with another android in nand.at first times i thought that i was pushing wrong button on magldr
Great advise, guys. I'm going to play with this soon. Thank you!

let me get a crack at this lol.
1. i believe only one os can be on nand only, ive seen people boot nand wp7 and android sd
2. i use the supercharger script which is great and use option 9, its in the android hacking forum.
3. the only radio you should probably be concerned and using (since there tested for compatibality lol ) is the 2.x.50.x radio ( preferably 2.15.50 for android)
4.never heard of chrot lol. sorry
5. rom manager now supports the hd2 and recovery is in nand.
6. some roms require different system partions to run correctly so there is ample wiggle room for the os to run smooth and butter.
7. there both great bootloaders, i wont state whats better, but i use magdlr since its the first one i used, and i really liked it and have gotten accustomed to it.
hope i answered your questions man and good luck!
i'm gonna try to answer too!

with stock EVERYTHING, only WM6.5 can be in the NAND. MAGLDR supports only ONE OS in NAND at a time (either Android or WP7). so the other OS can be on sd card only. and the only OSes one can boot from sd card are Android and Ubuntu.

honestly, most of the custom ROMs here are already tweaked enough to my liking. for some tweaks, you can use apps like "spare parts+" and "rom toolkit" etc. the rest is all customizations:
1. skins - if using a cyanogenmod Android, then theme switcher is built in. if using an HTC Sense Android, then theme switcher is already built in. most "simpler" ROMs may require a lot of work on your part to tweak the look n feel.
2. wallpapers - easy! changing wallpapers is built into all Android ROMs
3. ringtones & alerts - easy! changing these is built into all Android ROMs
4. apps - go to the market place (on Android or WP7) and download whatever you want!

isn't it nice that MAGLDR boots into your default ROM automatically? to access the MAGLDR menu, reboot the device, and hold down the power/endcall button until the MAGLDR menu comes up.
CWM is in the NAND (these days), but CAN be on the sd card if you want. it takes less than 5MB of your NAND. this will be more clear if you pay attention to the contents of "flash.cfg" when you are performing the MAGLDR partitioning using "DAF.exe" on your desktop.
6) what is about partitioning? Various roms require various sizes, and it confuses me. I can't install nexus HD rom( android 4. Ported 2 hd2). It installs and don't boot at all. Where I can instal miui which I am using now.

there are two kinds of partitioning we discuss on xda:
1. NAND partitioning - done with MAGLDR. a few MB for the recovery (CWM), followed by a big chunk of memory for the ROM itself, followed by a few MB for the cache, followed by a big chunk of memory for user data. most of the ROMs these days are "heavy", so they expect a partition size that can store the full ROM after unzipping, so the chunk remaining for the cache partition and the user data partition is sometimes barely enough. as a result, some Android ROMs now require an sd card partitioning (see next point) so that they can store part of the ROM in the NAND and the rest of it on the "sd-ext" partition (usually an ext3 or ext4 partition, among others).
2. SD Card partitioning - done via a desktop tool (like "minitool") or via CWM's menu options. the desktop tool will obviously give you a lot more flexibility when performing the partitioning but some ROMs seem to work best if your card is partitioned via CWM's menus. keep in mind that CWM will remove your existing FAT32 partition (so backup the data on the FAT32 partition!!!), then it will create all the partitions (including the FAT32 one) from scratch. typical partitioning is FAT32+1GB ext3 or FAT32+1GB ext4 or FAT32+1GB ext3+128MB linux swap, and so on...
7) which one is better magldr or clk? What are the differences?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
neither...you can search for a detailed comparison between the two. to summarize:
MAGLDR pros: supports WP7, dual booting (between NAND and sd card), detailed NAND partitioning, tetris!
MAGLDR cons: doesn't support PPP (a way to access your mobile network's data connection). only RMNET is supported (RMNET is another way to access the data connection, but slower than PPP). doesn't allow charging the device if completely powered OFF...need the WP7 or Android OS to boot up before it can charge the battery. finally, has an "ugly" screen that appears between the splashscreens on boot up.
CLK pros: supports PPP, allows charging the device when OFF, and doesn't interrupt the splashscreens on boot up.
CLK cons: works only to boot an Android ROM, cannot use CLK to boot WP7 or to dual boot. CLK is not 100% supported on some ROMs. most ROMs these days are "dual" but the experience may be less/more stable on the CLK version of the same ROM.
i believe neither MAGLDR nor CLK can pick the WIFI and Bluetooth MAC addresses from the NV-RAM of the device. the only mechanism i know to achieve this is to boot an sd card Android from within WM6.5...or to use an sd card Android whose kernel supports custom specification of MAC addresses from a config file on the sd card.
most Android kernels these days "generate" a unique WIFI MAC address and Bluetooth MAC address so that no two HD2s running these ROMs will have the same MAC address.
i'm not sure how the WP7 ROMs solve this problem...maybe Android is the only OS for the HD2 that has to "generate" MAC addresses.

Yap, i got the points. But dudes i am a previous owner of wildfire. So i know some of the things already. Such as sd partitioning. Tweeking using scripts etc. But i am new to nand partitioning. Is it like the one we do for wildfire ( allocating extra unused memory from rom partition to user partition so that user need not to move that much apps to sd. And ofcourse it will give u upto 150mb extra memory for user data).
I am not asking about root. Itz chroot. Its the linux command from terminal to mound other linux os like backtrack etc. If it qorks, where can i find such an os?
Also about tweeks. It not the app or wallpaper stuff. Itz advanced user tweeks like installing bravia engine, beatz audio,kernal, rom, ram tweekz etc..
Also i want to know if i can get a custom cwm recovery which is highwr than 3.xxx, man wildfire is now reaching cwm 5+. Then why r we still in 3. Also my cwm dont wipes my battery log. What my be the prblm? I have cwm 3.xx( the latest offered by rommanager.
