[Q] HD2 Nand Steps help.

My friend just received his HD2 from T-Mobile yesterday and i am about to Nand his phone and i have all the necessary files. Question is.....The phone already came with Radio 2.15.50.14, What steps do i need to take to get this done being the Radio is already current. Thanks in advanced

exactly the same as the instructions but miss out the updating of the radio

so i still have to do the hpsl even though im not updating the radio?

yes hspl is nothing to do with the radio, it enables the phone to be flashed witha different rom and os

It worked but no internet connection

Magdlr switch to clk

If switching from magdlr to clk, will sd-ext still work?

Yes...
Bootloader has nothing to do with sd-ext. It must be supported by ROM.

Differences between HSPL

Is there some performance differences between HSPL and HSPL4 to device.

Your question makes no sense. HSPL4 is a package used to flash SPL/HSPL to devices with SPL 3.03 and downwards.

Magldr

Hi,
When you flash HSPL and Mgldr will this remove Windows Mobile? Or can you still boot as usual?
Thanks

Hspl stays
Radio stays
Magldr removes.

Straight to the point,
Great answer thanks

Have a look at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1401767

if you flash HSPL and Mgldr this will be remove Windows Mobile ROM because these will write the boot data on mobile and remove the windows mobile.

Depends on what you want really. There are loads of threads on the topic of cLK vs MAGLDR. Search for and read them.

That's the old froyo stock desire NAND ROM from DFT, the first NAND ROM for the HD2. You'll need to flash MAGLDR 1.13 (chances are you're on an old version since you have that ROM) followed by CWM (with the correct partition size) and a new ROM. Check the guide in my sig as for how to do this.
As for why it says the device is a desire, the build.prop in that ROM identifies the phone as a desire so that it's compatible with the Play Store.

so i insatalled device manager / htc sync manager and it does not detect my phone. Running windows 7
is there any way i can just go back to stock everything and i can jsut start over?

You don't need HTC Sync manager. If you want to start over from stock, just flash the stock RUU from the bootloader but I don't really see why you would. Personally, I'd just enter the bootloader, flash MAGLDR 1.13, flash CWM in USB Flasher mode in MAGLDR and then flash a new ROM in CWM.
