how to change from one nand rom to another hd2 - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

hello guys.
quick question. htc sync will not connect to my pc using a nand rom. how do i connect to load a different rom please?
many thanks
paul

HTC Sync has nothing to do with flashing a new ROM, so it's not an issue that it doesn't work.
Turn your phone off and then turn it on, but keep holding the power button until you get the magldr menu. Then select to flash from SD (can't remember the exact wording.)
Then plug in your USB cable and see if it says USB...USB
If it does then you're good to go!
Good luck mate.

[Q] how to update magldr?

i have search but cant find an answer that works. please help!
You might want to check those glasses: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
ive seen this, but when i go to usb flasher and confirm it shows Wait USB... and wont connect.
you need to "run it as admin"
i tried running as admin, and am no longer getting stuck at wait USB..., but when i try to update magldr, i got an error 264 after it tries to verify the phone information
Your phone is in the bootloader menu ?
the one with the 3 collors ?
if not shut your phone down pres vol down and then power your phone on while pressing the vol down button.
Your computer sould now find a alternative driver for your HD2 if not install the one that is floting around here somewere. And try again.

This was pretty simple way to upload from 1.10 to 1.13
I don't know why others have given confusing solutions..
Thanks
I'd add my 2 cents - run UPDATE UTILITY from drive C: (had that issue myself and spent some time on it)
to summarise 'flash magldr from bootloader, not from usb flasher'.

Restoring to Original Stock ROM

Hey everyone,
Just recently I flashed my HD2 with WP7, after playing around with it for a while, because of its limitations I want to restore it to the original WinMO 6.5 ROM, I got it from the HTC website and when I run it it says connect with USB and use activesync, as you may know this isnt possible because WP7 uses Zune, can you please help me out here.
Thanks.
Never mind, for those in the same boat, turn off the phone, hold down VOL DOWN key and POWER button to go into tri color menu, then connect the device with usb and finally run the STOCK ROM.
I also had to repartition the SDCard, it was showing 200mb only.

my HD2 sync perfectly with HTC Sync.

Put your phone into bootloader mode and connect to pc. Does serial change to usb once plugged in? If not try moving to another usb port on your pc , preferably one at the rear and allow the drivers to be fully installed. Once you get usb to show on screen you can then try again.

Thanks. how do i put my phone into bootleader mode?
Switch off, hold in vol down button and switch on. Keep vol down pressed in until get to multi-coloured screen. In the bottom section you should see the word "serial" - plug in to pc and this should change to "usb".
Switch phone off, remove battery for min 5 min. Put battery back.
Push down button "volume down" and keep pressed. Dont release it.
Now keeping volume down putton pressed press down power on switch. Keep pressed to this time when you see on your tricolor screen.
Release buttons.
You are on bootloader mode.
Install MAGLDR.
When phone shuts down on reboot keep pressed power button, dont release until you see MAGLDR menu (10 menu points if i right).
Install you preferred nand rom how rom guide tell.
After install phone reboots.
Enjoy your fresh android rom install!

What is the current Rom on your HD2?
are you using magldr or clk? if your using magldr i might try a fresh install of it & flash a different ROM...lets say BLUETOPIA HD. (personal choice) dont forget to partition your sd card and phone if the ROM you choose asks to do so. this might not be necessary & maybe its a bit overkill but i find that when i have similar problems this takes care of it. dont foget to wipe data/cache/delvic. or if the problems persist you can always flash a windows mobile ROM.
@yerdan, I'm running stock desire from DFT
@htccraze, I'm pretty sure I'm using magldr. is clk better?
i can get into boot loader mode, and the recovery but not into adb recovery
anyhelp?
i cant even get the phone to connect to usb
Did you install recovery? CWM or CLK?
HERE IS VIDEO HOW TO DO IT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pxucOLY488

5. Using Volume DOWN button go to USB FLASHER and press GREEN CALL button
6. Now, click NEXT, NEXT in DAF.exe program
7. You need to wait until it connects with your phone, and if it's connected it will install CWM (installing will take few seconds)
8. Now your phone will restart
9. HOLD RED BUTTON to get in to magldr options and go to AD RECOVERY, press green button to open it
10. Then go to MOUNT option and press green button
11. Now go to MOUNT STORAGE or MOUNT SD i don't remember it is the last one, so go to it using VOLUME button and the press green button
12. Now you can put Android on your SD card
13. So download this build, it is very quick: http://www.multiupload.com/8UPNV5WUZU
14. After you downloaded it, put it on to your SD card
15. When it is finished, in you phone press green button and BACK button two times to get in to CWM main screen
16. Now choose Install zip or something like this i dont remember (dont choose update.zip)
17. and choose NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V2.8_NAND_(Android-2.3.4)_update.zip from the list and press green button
18. After it is finished press back button and choose reboot phone option.

Oh, so it doesn't recognize the phone? You get error that it can't connect to your phone?
Do you have Windows XP?
Install this:
If you don't have activesync download and install: http://download1us.softpedia.com/dl...0018828/software/internet/phone_gsm/setup.msi
And install this:
http://www.htc.com/managed-assets/support/software/htc-sync/setup_3.0.5551.exe
Then restart your PC and try to connect.
oh ok i see. i've had this problem too. to fix it i just unplugged the phone and plugged it back in, after a few seconds it worked, should do they same for you.
im on windows 7
i almost think the phone is bricked, i cant get past the lock screen and phone wont rec. a usb connection.

Does it charge the phone through USB?
Why do you think it's bricked? Does it boot to magldr?
What ERROR do you get after running DAF.exe?
Have you tried to see if it is recognized on different computer?
If you haven't got any other computer to check, then try to install Windows 7 on new partition and see if it works there because it might be some problem with drivers, I remember that I've used to have a problem with my old nokia phone, it was detected by pc but something happened and it wasn't recognized by pc anymore, I tried to reinstall drivers etc but didn't work. What I did was I reinstalled Windows and it worked.
BTW: Are you running DAF.exe as Administrator?

[Q] Cant go back on 6.5 Stock Rom

Hi everybody,
First, sorry for my poor english, i try to explain the best i can.
My HD2 is on one of the first Phone 7 release 01/2011 ago.
I want go back on stock rom, cause recently, i've a bug, my phone can't boot. It stay on Phone7 logo and next reboot.
Without my SD card, the phone boot, but it's in english, and My computer recognyze it on " Windows Phone7 " with yellow exclamation point.
I've tried to flash 6.5 stock rom with usb cable, but it's said it can't connect the device.
To go on flash screen, i push reboot+power off+ vol down button. Next on emagldr 1.13 screen, i select "5.usb flasher".
Next i can check on my computer's now recognyzed as " Microsoft USB Sync", but the stock rom still not abble to work:" no phone response, check usb cable"
I'm sure that my usb cable is working.
Any suggestion ?
You might try going into the normal bootloader, not into MAGLDR.
Push both vol. down and power buttons until the device starts into the multicolor bootloader screen, then connect the USB cable.
If you didn´t change your PC, it should now be able to connect via ActiveSync.

Thanx for your answer, i think the bug is here i cannot enter normal tri-color bootloader, it doesnt work :s
When i do power+ vol down until the device start, i first have a blank Htc screen maybe 1sec, and quikly next boot menu from MAGLDR 1.13
However, i'm sure that my Vol Down button work, it works on magldr menu.
try pulling out the battery, then hold down the two volume buttons, as hard as you can safely get away with, pop the battery back in whilst still holding buttons down, if it doesnt start tap the power button. keep holding down the buttons through out the whole process until it comes on.
if you can read the content of your sd card in pc then you can flash WinMo6.5 rom via sd card.... :
- go to HTC website, download appropriate rom for your HD2 with your s/n
- extract NBH file from downloaded ROM (can be done with 7-zip, Winzip...)
- rename extracted IMG file to LEOIMG.NBH
- copy that file to SD card
- boot your HD2 with SD card while holding VOL DOWN
- you should see a flash menu appear, press VOL DOWN again (if i remember.. ) and you'll flash 6.5 rom
- that's it, you'll have new instance of WinMO 6.5, with stock SPL, without MAGLDR and ANY trace of WP7.-..
oh, if you dont see anything on your SD card or you cant copy to it, it is locked and you have to format it either with some utility or in a Nokia N, E series phone... I know for a fact that N79 works
this should do the trick...

huh, must be that i'm blind missed it completely
Thx for taking time to help me,
So, if i push vol up and down, i 've a screen, next the screen loading wph 1,2,3,4 Go.
I read on it "This operation will 1.delete all your personal data, and reset all setting to manufacturer default. 2. Calculate CRC checksum. Press Voldown to restore manufacturer default, or press Vol Up to get CRC, or press other keys to cancel".
But,
Nothing happend if i press vol down, or volUp or other buttons :s
Maybe we've to try another way to get into bootloader, i think my poor batterie level is bugging the bootloader.
So, I known that we can't acces bootloader via windows.
I'm on Seven x64, my hd2 is recognyzed as a phone7 Device, with a yellow "!".
If i launch HSPL 4, with administrator right, and XP SP2 compatibility level, it can't acces via USb. " no response".
Any suggestions ? May i change the driver?
right, well that proves the buttons are working, i think its just a case of not having them held in at the right time
pop the battery out, hold down the vol down button on its own and keep it held down, put the battery back in and if it doesnt restart tap the power button.
dont let go of the vol down button
Yep, i've done this maybe 30 or 40 times, no way, no bootloader.
I4ve found a thread that explain to fullu charge the battery, remove it and wait 24H before, do the operation ( vol down, putt battery still vol down, push power stil vol down) No way, this doesn't work :s
So i've order a new battery, maybe it'll resolve the problem, i hope. See when it arrive.
Oh dear, well if you definitely cant get in to bootloader and the keys do work then that's a problem, I doubt a battery will fix it but id be interested in knowing if it does work, good luck! Is been reading quite a bit about fixing devices via the wee metal points inside devices, I wonder I the points inside the hd2 will allow this...

I'm not sure i've understand all your reply Dazza, are u suggesting to check the 3 pin connector baterry on my HD2 ?
If it's this, i've already check this, the 3 pin are good, and i've put a graphyte electrical dust on it to improve the contact.
Nope, I mean if you pop the battery cover off there are 3 metal connectors next to the sim card, it seems on some devices people have found similar points and managed to connect the device to a serial port on a pc, then had direct access to the device bypassing the bootloader. I don't think anyone done this for the hd2 yet but apparently this will fix a completely bricked device
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Ok ! Maybe if the new battery won't resolve, i'll try something like that
Its complicated an as far as i know its not been done for the hd2, im not even sure that's the correct points but its a possibility. There are another 2 points on the opersite side to the volume buttons under the battery cover.
