Hey,
I've know my way around android and am quite familiar with clockwork mod.
But just switched to the HTC HD2 and need a noobs guide to installing MAGLDR and Android NAND Roms.
Thanks in advance,
Louis
Man IDK why people don't just search... posted so many times and hell I don't even use it and I know it at this point lol
How hard is it to download MAGLDR and running ROMUpdateUtility? Then follow and reboot you will see the MAGLDR bootloader.
Here I made it very easy for you as simple google yield video tutorial. You might find it useful cuz I sure won't post the 2nd step lol way to long thats all not hard but to long

some help
Not wanting to invite flames but I kind of understand why people ask this, I think this forum is excellent but organisation is not 100% and it is not always straight forward or easy to find information. I had to do a lot of hunting to find that the answer was far simpler than suggested on any of these stickies etc.
All I did to get android on my phone was:
Install HardSPL onto my PC then install Hard SPL 2.08 onto my phone.
Next I updated the radio to 2.12
The above can be found through:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732380
Next I installed excellers multi boot loader and copied an android build to my phone.

Now I agree there is some reading and learning to do and you have to work out things if they don't work but this should help you narrow down what you have to do and what you don't have to do. You don't have to change the windows mobile rom, I am still running the vodafone 1.6 version, the important parts are hardspl and the radio being a high version.
I can well recommend the shubcraft build, use the rmnet version if uk.
ready for the flames now
Burn baby burn
HSPL3. get HSPL3.
Are you kidding?????? There is a complete step by step guide right at the top and it was even linked for the OP, but yet you people still need to reply with a VERY short version of the guide ??????????
ok guys, thread closed...
op please read the threads that are open already...
I know this may sound stupid but I just cant get the gingbread 2.3 to work. I have the MDJ_GingerBread_HD2_v.1.0_RC5_RAM_STOCK . I don't have data.exe but have data.img will that work? I am new to this and have been trying to get this to work for the past 4 days. I have zImage and initrd.gz do i need those on my sd card? any help would be so greatful....
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

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

Guys, I'm new here, so could you give me manual or guide how to install Android on HD2.
I didn't found thread about this, so i started new.
Don't you think it would be good to check at least the FIRST one thread in this forum ?

When i first joined this forum this time last year i didn't have a clue where to look for anything and was a total noob but i spent many hours reading various topics and was then confident enough to go ahead and flash my first WINMO ROM.
All the information you need is on this forum, you NEED TO SEARCH THE FORUM and you will find what you need.
Enjoy XDA
I'm understand your RAGE about new double threading. I used search, and don't found something useful for my problem.
I just don't have enough time to read all threads, i have two other phones on Android, and i need to solve problems there too.
Please sorry me, and if someone can just give me link to useful thread.
Thanks
It's not the matter of RAGE or something like this (maybe a little annoyance
I thought, that I was clear in my first post - just look at the first (sticky) thread in this foru, which is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915663
There you will find very thorough explanations of what should you do to have HD2 running with Android.
Question you must answer yourself first is if you want to have both Windows Mobile and Adroid (then you should look at Android SD) or if you'll be good with only Android running (then Android NAND). I personally use NAND version.

Thank you for this thread, excellent help. I have no experience......and this take me straight to the point. I'm in love w/ froyo now, its time to try out the new thing. This is great.
Thanks every one who answered here!
So I've been searching all day trying to figure this out. I'm pretty sure I got my HD2 rooted (everything did as it was supposed to, but don't remember it rebooting, although it probably did). The problem I'm having is I want to load an Android ROM, but it's so confusing? I managed to get my G2 rooted and flashed multiple ROMs on it, but this is a lot different, and every time I google how to install them, it'll give me the Android ROMs, but no instructions? I found one I'd like to use (really I don't care which one it is as long as I have Android Market), but I'm seriously lost as how to flash it. I've been searching all day, and I know you guys hate posts like this, but I'm in serious need guys. Any help will be appreciated.
Also, the G2 ROM was flashed through ClockworkMod in recovery. I can get instructions on how to flash other ROMs, but it says nothing about Android ROMs.. I just want to be able to enjoy my phone!
there are stickies on how to do this
download this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783
install magldr then install CWM
download the zip file you want to install fromthe dev section and reboot intot he CWM menu and isntall
Thanks bro. I'm going to try it now and see if it works!
if i may...
the link given to you is a sticky in the hd nand section. pretty obvious to see if you open that forum, imo.
in all seriousness - what kept you from finding it? was it hard to find? did you not see the forum? were you nervous to try and use it? why did you feel the need to ask a how to question before trying something out?
i ask as your question is asked countless times and i am curious what xda can do better to get people information that is readily available. i am not trying to be snarky, rather learn from you as what we can do better.
thanks.

Don't you need to install HSPL2.08 first?
That is how i installed Nandroid.

it's implied, that if you install magldr, that you do it properly including hspl and correct radio.
please, do answer my above question.

Agreed.
I too am curious as to why people either dont look first or just cant be bothered because that is what it seems like to me.
I just cant understand why people make topics like this when there is plenty of guides and sticky on exactly how to do it, It just seems a never ending circle of n00bs asking "how do I install android" and then people linking to the sticky/guide topics over and over.
Its even more surprising because these new users are given a video to watch as soon as the join up very clearly telling them to use search and read sticky/guide topics first.

That's either a lie or you have been searching under your bed.
I've been searching around for quite a bit now and can't find a guide that's easy enough for me to understand.
I'm trying to install this ROM on my HD2: (Android 4.0.4)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434860
I've read through it multiple times but can't figure out what are they steps I need to follow in order to get it running. I also tried the search function and couldn't find anything I could easily understand. Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm really new to this stuff.
So, does anyone know of a good, simple step-by-step guide to to install Android on the HD2? Thanks! :laugh: :good:
Installing Android is pretty tricky for beginners.
When I first started, this was the guide that helped me the most:
http://www.htchd2android.com/how-to/how-to-install-android-on-htc-hd2-android-4-0-4/
It's really easy to follow and helped me tremendously. I used their 4.0.3 guide back when I did mine, but that one looks to be very similar and uses a newer version.
Hope that works out for you. :good:
Thanks for the link, I haven't really had time to look through it yet but I'll be sure to check it out now.
BTW, is that a good ROM to use or would you suggest another one? Thanks again.
