help me roll my phone back - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

had a great froyo on the sd card working for months. i tried 7 and want to go back to the sd card version. I have read a need to roll back to 6.5, but when I try to go into the boot logger all it comes up as serial. are there simple directions to flash the chuck light rom back that i loved. realative noob here so please help in simple terms if we can or point me in the right direction. thanks

have you connected the usb cabel.

yes and it stays at serial in the bootloader

instead of running from pc put the files on your sd card and restart phone.

Just stick a stock WinMo rom on root of your sd card and rename it to "leoimg.nbh" then power up into bootloader and flash rom from card.

but when i open the boot loader it says serial, i cant change it to sd card or usb.

are you entering the tri colour screen 3 or 4 different colours on screen.
if you put the file on sd card and rename as above post says you dont need to press anything it will go straight to the LEOIMG.nbh file

somebody need to do a video on it on youtube????????

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrmlqrfCvas

its a 4 color screen

and since the win 7 is loaded it wont allow me to hook it with active sync so i could even put the old bootloader on.

have you tried putting the files on the sd card (format card 1st)

yeah, no luck with the files on sd card.

did u rename the .nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh

ok. got back to 6.5. went to load android on my 16 gb card, which is now telling me its only 199 mb card...any ideas. stuck it in the computer to see if i could format it and it says its only 200 mb card?

yes when you put 7 on it it messes the card up use sd formatter you will get the full 16 back get it from here http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/eula/

would of been nice a little thank you or summit.TUT TUT TUT.

Cannot restore

Hi people, trying to restore a stock SPL after installing HSPL
as the phone is going for an exchange, when i press the vol down button and power the tri color screen comes on and briefly says loading but then goes to the tri color screen again with SPL-1.42.HSPL CotullaHSPL on it.
I have placed leoimg.nbh on the root of the sdcard and it is formatted in FAT32.
I also thought i was holding the vol down button too long but i release as soon as i see the colours but nothing loads still
Any help would be appreciated.
how did you copy the nbh onto the storage card?
i had the same issue and it sounds mad but i think you must put the sd card into the phone and connect it to a PC via cable as a disk drive. Then copy nbh onto the card that way.
Should work after that.
Yeah that's the way I did it already. Need to try and do it before tomorrow morning
ok... maybe i got it wrong... try it the other way... put the card directly into your PC via a card reader and copy the nbh onto it that way.
i had exactly the same issue and it was definately the way i copied the nbh onto the card that was at fault.
Found out it was my 8gb SDHC Memory card, i transferred the leoimg.nbh to a standard 2gb sd card that came with the phone and its updating fine.
Thanks for the help

how to put stock rom in, with usb not working

Hi, how do i put original stock rom into diamond 2 when im going to send my phone to repair, because of faulty usb-pc connection. Is there any way? because i cant send it with cooked ROM
Use SD card. Take a card less than 8GB. Format it to FAT32. Copy ruu_signed.nbh to card and rename it to topaimg.nbh. Put phone in boot loader and follow instructions.

If you name it topaimg.nbh it probably won't flash.
Has to be TOPAIMG.nbh
It doesn't matter, you can use both, small or capital letters. It worked for me in both ways.
Good to know. I have heard of it failing if it is not exact.

[Q]How to make SD card ready for WP7?

Hi,
I have Sandisk 2gb SD card which comes with hd2, i installed WP7 but it seems that WP7 can not recognize my SD because when i put SD in my computer nothing is changed in my SD even i tested it, I put some files in SD and reinstall WP7 so as far as i understand wp7 has to format my SD put its specific partition but guess what nothing is changed in my SD even that files remain in the same place...
So i tried to format SD my self with FAT32 and FAT and even i delete my SD partition and none of them make WP7 format and make partitions on my SD card...
P.S-1 My SD card is working i tested it wit my computer by formatting copy some files there so read and write is ok.
P.S-2 WP7 booted correctly in this situation i mean when SD is in device the only problem i have is WIFI can not find any router when SD is in device, when i took it out wifi start working, why i'm saying this because i aware of compatibility issue of WP7 with some SD cards where it reboots if it is not compatible .
same thing happens to me, I am now trying to reinstall (again) wp7, and it seems it got stuck at the DFT screen..... previously it booted almost inmediately. maybe it is partitioning it?, for those of you guys that sd card works, wp7 boots inmidiately?
Yeah SD cards makes crash wifi !
And i cannot use it... Flash WP7 with formated SD cards NTFS but still doesn't works !
First time i istalled WP7 without SD card and when i afterward inserted card nothing was changed. Then i made Factory Reset from Settings menu and my phone started to restart over and over from point where DFT banner shws first time after loader. Then i went to the loader and as i can remember then i re-selected preferred boot source and then for me all was good. Now it show 1.6GB free space with my original HD2 SD card.
i am having axactly the same trouble. i have a san disk 2 gb too. it'll be enough for me but wp7 does not recognize it. i installed both sd-card inserted and sd-card not inserted. i booted with sd-cad and without sd-card. i tried every posibility but no result
reserved space is %95 on zune and it tells me there is no disk space. so i cant start using it full functionally and it makes me really sad
any help is appreciated. thanks.

I have exact the same problem.. i found some sort of "solution". but it is a bit strange. when I pull out the sd card, boot my phone in magldr, insert my sd card and boot wp7, It shows the normal storage instead of the 15 mb.
but when I try a normal reboot without going to magldr, its going back to the 15 mb. and when I try to sync my phone with zune,(with the put-sdcard-in-phone-when-in-magldr-solution) everything goes slow.
Dont know if you (or someone else) already found a "good" solution?
greetz
all of you guys have an incompatible SD card, sorry guys, will need to buy a new one, its a bit of a lottery as that too might not work and dispite what some on here say its impossible to recomend anything.
only advice i can give is get a card that class 2 or 4 and dont spend money on a card that you may end up using for a tiny paperwight
is my sd card gone?
After I successfully flash WM7, I juz realize that my pc not recognize my sd card when i connect my phone to d computer. First, i thought becoz of some bug of wm7 so i try to flash android back. I took my sd card put into a card reader but it still not recognize my sd card. Is it gone?
What about the sd unlock tool that xbmod released ? try a few nokia devices or a device which takes sd card to see if you can unlock... Check out 96edwy video on YouTube on how to unlock after wp7
I have the same problem like arrirang .
When I put my SdCard to CardReader, windows 7 does not recognize SD Card in reader. If I try proces mentioned in video tutorial -> result is the same. Device USB Mass Storage is displayed in device manager with error code.
I was trying it in three computers (two with windows 7 x64 and one with Windows XP) - the result was allways the same.
Any one help me?
EDIT:
I have found this solution:
1. Connect USB cable from PC to phone.
2. At PC, enter WP7-Update-Cab-Sender folder.
3. Go to ‘if needed install this tool’ folder.
4. Install Setup-UpdateWP (x64 for 64 bits Windows and x86 for 32 bits Windows).
5. Copy DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab to WP7-Update-Cab-Sender folder.
6. Run WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat.
7. Then type S – (S)end Cabs to device.
8. After finished installation, close WP7 Update Cab Sender.
9. Disconnect USB cable from phone.
10. At WP7, launch StorageLock.
11. Click yes to unlock SD card.
12. Shutdown your phone.
13. Put your SD card into card reader.
14. Launch Partition Wizard Home Edition (download it here)
15. You should see 2 partitions on SD card.
16. Delete both of them.
17. Create a primary FAT32 file type partition.
18. Click ‘Apply’ to begin the process.
19. That’s all.
It works! I kid you not!!

You should know that Installing wp7 locks your card so thats why it is not recognised by your pc..
Have you installed mango or another wp7 version on this sd card or succesfully on another?? I take it, you have no nokia devices that can format your card?
If you have mango installed transfer the storageunlock.cab to the phone followed by partition cab (got to be less than your total capacity) Reset your phone check if partition has taken effect..unlock using storage lock.turn off phone ..take sd card out into adapter into your pc now it should be readable (not full capacity bear in mind) you have to use easeus partition tool to format to full..
If you have mango on a different sd card and want to recover the corrupt one
Check this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286511
Or if your using just the same sd card you have to start over again and reflash from task 29 stock magdlr radio ie then storage unlock tool
Good luck
hey my problem is that wp7 in my hd2 shows internal memory of 175mb only even though my 8gb sd card is inserted in it..i cant seem to find a sloution to make my phone show the sd card memory..any solution please?
I have the same problem
it's probably because you installed wp7 without the sd card in it and you did not hard reset after installing rom...if so, you need to do a hard reset with the sd card in it for wp7 to recognize the card. or you have a bad card to begin with and the wp7 install had problems.

[fix] !!!!sdcard is not ruined after flashing wp7!!!!

I flashed Windows Phone 7 earlier and decided to go back to NAND Android but like others thought my SD Card was ruined. But it is not I figured out how to see the SD Card and Reformat it.... I will gladly post step by step TUT if this hasnt been figured out yet or if there's enough interest. Atleast this is what worked for me. This you will lose WP7 using this guide but your SD Card will be usable once again and you'll be back to the start line. This will only work if your SD Card is atleast visible to your PC.
KEEP PHONE PLUGGED INTO YOUR PC THROUGHOUT THIS WHOLE PROCESS.
1. Reboot Phone and HOLD VOLUME DOWN KEY to enter BootLoader Screen (multicolor screen).
2. Download and flash MAGLDR 1.12. Reboot Phone. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7S80S74D
3. When phone is rebooting HOLD POWER BUTTON to enter MAGLDR Screen.
4. Go to OPTION 4. USB MassStg in MAGLDR.
5. Now Download SD Formatter 3.0 Beta from here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K8502IMN and install it.
*If your PC is not recognizing your SD Card go back to MAGLDR Main Menu by pressing the Power Button once and go to OPTION 10. RESET with phone still plugged in, and hold Power Button down while rebooting to get back to MAGLDR screen and select option 4. USB MassStg again. It should recognize it.
6. Open SD Formatter 3 and make sure your SD Card is being shown in the Drive Dropdown Box.
7. You can enter whatever Volume Label you like. Then click the OPTION BOX.
8. Select Format Type - Full Erase, and select Format Size Adjustment - On.

Fire away !! I've got a useless 2gb here

I've ruined my sdcard
Just format the card in a photo camera.
Or do it like me, and format it in Windows Mobile 6.5.3.
Simple.
dude post the tut already.
Many people would appreciate this and not just HD2 users.
GG
I inserted my card in an external card reader and formatted it with SD formatter.
Worked perfectly.
Ok cool. Glad it worked. To each his own I guess lol...I myself do not own a digital card reader nor a digital camera or any apparatus to read Micro SD CARDs so this guide is what worked for me and I posted it to help people who may find themselves in my shoes.

I used Gpart and booting via MAGLDR --> USB Storage --> partitioned SD into a FAT32 and EXT3, so you're directly ready for Android NAND ROM

Genius! worked great! Thanks!
question: what do you mean by "ruined"? Other devices not recognizing the card or something else??
I have a 4GB card but my PC and Android read it as it has 200mb memory total... is that what happens???
I have WP7 now, so it means that its using the rest of my memory rite??
EDIT: Zune software says that i have 2gb free, so im guessing yea
it works!!
Genius, it works!!! thanks man.
To those who reflash back to an android nand
If you go back to an Android Nand build, and you have reflashed android back onto your phone, all you have to do to reformat your card is:
1) Make sure card is inserted in the phone
2) Go to SD card and phone storage under settings
3) Erase SD card data
I had a 32G card. After flashing WP7 all other devices could only read 200megs.
After following steps above, the SD card was reformatted back to 32G being readable by all devices.
No need to download any software, or use a Nokia. Anyway this worked for me, hope this helps
just worked perfect, thanks a lot!!
thank you, worked on both my micro sdhc cards
Is this a solution for a HTC HD2 Windows pHone 7 .... ? to get it work
works perfectly!!!! thanx a million
It just reorganize partitions in SDcard.
Alternativly you can just use any partitioning tool to fix the problem.
Fortunately,one of my SD cards came with a small Lexar card reader so i just used that in my usb port. I did notice that WP7 had used up just about all my memory on the card but the reader actually has an option to format,so i did that and now i have a clean 16GB card again. I saw a tutorial explaining how to put WP7 (well,the memory it uses on SD anyway) and Android from SD on the same card and i really want to try that but...with WP7,it keeps resetting itself after it recovers from sleep mode. if they can fix that,imma try it !!
Sweet! SD formatter is much faster than any Partition Manager! Thanks.
Exactly, I just get to the bootscreen, installed a new rom. Bye bye WP7, then in phone extra's SD Format and ready

Can't get CM7.1 working off SD card.... Boot loops

Hey everyone - I need help ....
I have been fighting with this for the past 4 days.... I have followed multiple tutorials online and on You Tube. I am attempting to run CM 7.1 ( the latest stable version) off the SD card so I can still have the stock nook if I want.
So I have formatted the sd card with SD formatter and installed the 1.3 version of the generic sd card boot loader software. I then remove the sd card from my pc and then reinsert it into the pc. I then drop CM 7.1 zip file onto the sd card (leaving it zipped) and again remove the card from the pc. I then insert the card into the NC and turn it on ....in a minute or so I get the Skateboarding Android loader screen for a few seconds and then it flashes black and repeats the Skateboarding Android loader .... It will do this forever.
I keep seeing people say this is sooooo easy to do and I just can't get it .
What am I missing ???
Can someone post a step by step that you did with a link to the files you used ... and with the step by step I mean EVERY step because I must be missing something.
I am using a Sandisk class 4 - 4 gig card .
Thanx in advance

Did you unzip verygreens img file before you wrote it? Did you use easeus partition master to make the boot partition large enough to hold the cm7 zip you are using? I am no expert, but I have made cm7, cm7.2, and cm9 cards with verygreens installer and all work fine.

OP, did you by any chance rename your CM7 file to something other than the original file name? It should be something like "update-cm-7.1.0-encore-signed.zip".

Definitely something wrong.
I don't believe you should have seen the Skateboarding if you not even install CM7.
After creating a "GOOD" bootable uSD, drop ONLY CM7 ROM into its "boot" partition, which should only having 4 files by then.
Insert it into the NC and power up. It SHOULD boot into Recovery, not showing Skateboarding boot animation.
