Help, I have bricked my HTC HD2 using MAGLDR 1.11

Hello all,
I was trying to get android booting from NAND instead of the SD card, I got a rom with 576ram (recommended) and installed MAGLDR 1.11. Now i cant seem to do anything with the phone, its not bricked as par say, it will show the loading screen and then not move and i can access the bootloader with voldwn+powerbutton but nothing else is happening, I cant load new roms nothing. Im pretty lost here and really need some help of how i can get my phone back onto a winmo6.5 rom so i can remember not to try it again
I posted this in this thread as it does relate to an android situation.

Find Task29.exe with no radio. It's on this site somewhere. You will see some with radios attached to them, so don't use those. Just the plain old no radio version. It will wipe your phones internal memory and you will basically be starting from scratch. Nothing will be on your phone after a Task29. Then go into bootloader. How to enter boot loader after Task29- Once Task29 hits 96% (looks just like you are flashing a rom), hold volume down and power from 96% until it gets to 100% and the tri color bootloader screen pops up. It should say "USB" at the bottom after bootloader comes up if you are plugged into your computer. Then Flash MAGLDR 1.11 again. Then flash your NAND build.
You aren't bricked if you phone powers on.
What operating system is on your PC?

Well it does boot and if you have hspl you did a good job. So if you have magdlr you now need to install Android. Read a guide plzzz!

OS on PC is....#sigh# windows vista ultimate
For task 29 do I have to have the phone connected via usb, because its not recognising it when its even in bootloader

task29.exe didnt work

Don't do task 29,you will just complicate your life even more than now. I don't think you know what you are doing.
You may brick your phone in the end do you have HSPL?

1st try entering the BOOTLOADER, by pressing the volume down power button simultaneously..!!!
Instead of TASK 29, try FLASHAHOLIC which will perform your TASK 29 & help you flash a WinMO 6.5 ROM as well..!!!
PS: - You can even flash custom ROM's, stock ROM's not compulsory..!!!

Well then re-install Active SYNC or try on a diff PC with Latest Active SYNC..!!!
If you can access your boot-loader your device ain't bricked..!!!

Just boot your phone with VolDown and enter USB mode, reflash MAGLDR 1.11, once this has completed reboot your phone and hold down the power button, you will then see the MAGLDR menu.
Then just follow instructions on how to install an nand rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948

it might just be the magldr or NAND ROM not flashed properly. If you can get to Tri-Color bootloader you are fine.

Found out the problem, thanks for all of your help guys, it was the fact i didnt have hspl2 installed....newb points to me

I have exactly the same problem only difference with my problem is when hold vol down and power buttons all I get is the tri coloured screen and nothing else no bootloader menu appears at all.
What can I do? Is my phn dead???

That's exactly what is supposed to happen if you hold the vol down button while switching on. To get to the magldr menu you need to hold the power button in until it boots to the menu (no vol down button )

You guys are awesome!
I've been avoiding dealing with this phone for a while. This post came up first on google search. Held power and volume (mag 1.11 was on it) and upgraded it to 1.13 and now I'm golden! Thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Q] HD2 Doesnt upgrade

Hi,
Today I've tried to install android onto my HD2. After installing 'mgdlr' to my phone it stopped doing upgrades alltogether.
Mgdlr did install correctly but after the reset I only got that white HTC screen.
I know I have to press the power button really long etc etc (I've read the guide thoroughly).
Now, when I try to install anything it doesn't go any further than 0%. Not with any (official) ROM, radio etc.
I've done several hard resets, soft resets and re-installs but nothing gets past 0%.
Does anyone have any clue what happened and why I can't install a ROM and perhaps knows how to fix it?

What are you trying to install? An android rom? Are you going to the flashing mode in magldr? it's option 4 or 5, I think. Magldr was installed successfully? What radio do you have?

I was indeed trying to install an android rom. My radio version was/is 3.14.404.2
I never got to that mode. I've seen it in video's but mine doesn't. I only get that white screen with, in green letters, HTC on it. No matter how long I hold down the power button.
Btw, I said that magdlr installed succesfully because it installed without errors. But I think it's malfunctioning because it obviously isn;t doing what it's supposed to. Re-installing it isn't an option because it hangs at 0%

Did you try task29? might help with your upgrading issues.

Which NAND rom did you use?

You mean your radio is 2.14.404.2 right, not 3.14.404.2?
Also what is your SPL, it appears in the tri color screen/bootloader.

I think youre right about the radio. It was the standard radio of the latest stock rom. Is there any way to check? My spl is 2.08.0000.
And I was going for rafdroid, not that it matters because I never got close to installing a rom.
Thanks for the replies so far!

if your spl is 2.08.0000, first, how did you get magldr to instal since it requires hspl? second, if you removed hspl after flashing magldr (hence 2.08.0000 and not 2.08.hspl as it should be), why?
enter bootloader, does it really say 2.08.0000?
You dont have to press the power button for 'really long' only about 5 seconds, so long as its the right 5 seconds, , , start the phone, first splashscreen appears, just as the first splashscreen is about to end, (after around 5/6 seconds) start pressing power, and keep it held till the magldr menu appears.

Mate, I need more info.
1. Your device version (branded or non branded?)
2. Your rom version before you start anything (stock or custom rom?, if stock, is it version 3.14 (the latest one)?)
3. Version of Android (NAND or SD Android?)
4. Are you planning to have dual boot WP7 and SD ANdroid?
5. Do you have HSPL installed?
The solution will depend on your answer on the above question
Cheers

Ive tried task29 but it does the same as any other update. It just wont let me flash anything, it keeps hanging at 0%

3. I was going for a NAND version

5. I have the latest hspl installed (2.08.0000)
Additional info:
When running task 29, first it says From: image version:
To: image version: 2.0.00.00
And when I start the progress bars appear on both my comp and phone.
Afterwards it gave me a communications error.

Ok. Let's start from the very beginning.
Find the CORRECT STOCK ROM first. You go to htc website and use your serial number to download the rom. Make sure your downloaded file is not corrupt.
Get micro sd and use PC to format it to fat 32.
Extract the stock rom and find file with the name: RUU_signed.nbh. Rename it to: leoimg.nbh.
Turn off the phone (make sure battery at least 50% capacity), put your micro sd.
Now, press the VOLUME DOWN BUTTON (don't release it), then press POWER ON button at the same time until white screen appear. Now, follow the on screen instruction.
If you succeed, check your spl by going into boot loader screen.
If your spl is other than spl 3.03, you can continue with next process. Installing SPL 3.03 HSPL.
Then, Do task 29. Then, flash radio 2.15.xx. Then install magldr 1.13.
All process can be done while in the boot loader screen.
If you succeed, you will be brought to mgldr screen. Select option no.5 (USB flasher) and press the green phone call button and connect it via USB, now run the NAND ANDROID you choose from your PC. If fails, retry the process from magldr screen and try different USB port. Also, make sure your anti virus, firewall, and Internet is turn off.
Good luck...

Thank you man, it worked!
I did everything you said and my phone is back up and running
Thanks!

Rom Flashing Help

So, I have installed HSPL 2.08. I flashed ChuckyDroid and it worked fine but I wanted more. So I flashed an Omega rom and it was cool but now I want to Flash Magldr1.3 and try wm7 or a nand android. The problem I am having is, when I start to flash the new rom, I get the HTC screen and 0% and it stays there forever. I end up pulling the battery and resetting the phone. I first tried with Mgldr then a few other wm6.5 roms with the same problem. Why can't I flash roms anymore?
I searched the thread and had no luck. I apologize in advance ir this has been covered before.

Try to flash stock Rom from tricolor or even from Your microSD card. And then hspl, magldr etc.

How about this way.
Assuming you still can reach Boot Loader and You still have SPL 2.08 HSPL installed.
Go into bootloader screen and connect your phone using usb, and let the word: "serial" in the below of phone (the white color bar) changed to: "USB". If you fails, retry it using different ports, and dont forget to turn off your antivirus, firewall and internet connection, or even your screen saver.
While in bootloader, do "task 29", flash radio 2.15.xxx, install magldr 1.13 (all in sequence).
Assuming you succeed it. Now, we go into flashing NAND WP7 (or NAND Android).
Assuming that you already have NAND WP7 (or NAND ANDROID).
Go into magldr screen, you know how to do it right?
There, select option 5 (USB Flasher) and confirm it by pressing the phone call (green) button and connect your phone using usb to pc.
Run your NAND WP7 (or NAND ANDROID) rom.
Finish.
Good luck

[Q] How can I boot WM 6.5 After Installing MAGLDR 1.13

It is said that you have to hold the power button to load MAGLDR after resetting the phone, but when I reset the phone it automatically boots to MAGLDR, instead of WM 6.5. Can you guys tell me how to access WM 6.5 from MAGLDR?

I forgot to mention that I always get this message before it boots to MAGLDR after resetting.
Rebooting Android from SD
Android loads at 11000000
From MicroSD
Load zIMAGE
K:\ zIMAGE
SD Kernal Open Failed.
Should I be concerned?
I haven't installed Android yet, but I'm in the process of installing Clockwork 1.3

I also tried to do a factory reset through MAGLDR, but it only goes back to the MAGLDR main screen. Help? Please?

First of all, use the "edit post" button to add text to the first post instead of making two new
Yesterday I got the exact same problem. Someone said that it is because the MAGLDR can't see the wrongly flashed ROM. However, I did not notice that it is something wrong with it.
What ROM do you have and which HSPL version ?
I had WinMo 1.46 stock and HSPL 2.08

my apologies.
stock? i'm using Radio 2.15 HSPL 2.08
did you correct your problem?
would it be safe to manually hard reset?

You can't boot Windows Mobile 6.5 if you have MAGLDR installed. But there is simply way back - just run RUU with stock 1.48 ROM on your PC, while having your HD2 connected to PC (phone has to be in bootloader, that rainbow screen).

I didn't correct my problem. I had to flash WinMo back from the SD card but the raven_raven's method is also possible.
So raven, why I can't boot into WinMo with MAGLDR? I've seen many people doing that by not keeping the power button pressed

From what I know, it's impossible to boot into WM6.5 if you have MAGLDR on your device. Its purpose is to load Linux kernel, not WM .

I'm kinda confused right now

If you flashed MAGLDR, why would you want to use WinMo? The main purpose of MAGLDR is to boot Android/WP7 on the NAND. It over-writes the WinMo you had on it before.
The error you're getting, you shouldn't be worried about it at all. All it is is that you haven't flashed a ROM yet. What do you mean you're in the process of flashing Clockwork? It's not hard... just flash the DFT file on your PC via the USB Flasher option and you'll have Clockwork. Then you install your .zip ROM, reboot and you won't get an error anymore as you'll have a ROM flashed.

Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated.
I can't access the USB Flasher. When I connect my phone to my PC, my SD card doesn't show up, instead, its recognized as an "unspecified" MAGLDR driver. I can't do anything with that.
But I can access my SD card through USB Mass Storage, but I don't want to install DFT on Mass Storage when I'm told to use USB Flasher. I don't want to do anything stupid

the usb flasher option is not to mount your sd card, it is just used to flash files/roms via daf.exe. use the usb flasher to install clockworkmod1.3, once that is done boot back into magldr and go to ad recovery, and recovery should start. from there you can mount as usb mass storage. i belive the one in magldr doesn't work very well, or at all for some, the one in clockwork always seems to work well for me.

guys its simple your not supposed to use MAGLDR if your going ot go back WM6.5.
tunr your phone off. hold the volume down button and press the power button, do not let go of the volume button, its going to bring you a tri colored screen. once your in that screen plug in your USB cable to the phone and to your computer. once that is doen flash a official WM6.5 rom let it do what it does,its going to restart and there you go back on WM6.5

there is no way you can boot Win 6.5 if you got MAGLDR, never seen it here
(unless someone shows a video or something)
the only way that can be achieved is to go into bootloader (tricolor screen)
and flash Win 6.5

I thought MAGLDR was for dualbooting. I wanted to go back to 6.5 in case I ran into any problems with the android builds Nontheless, I successfully installed Cyanogenmod, and it works perfectly. I dont think i'll be going back to 6.5.
Thanks for the help, it was greatly appreciated.

Hold volume down and power button when turning the phone on, it will get you into tree color screen...then plug your phone into pc .....on the of run rom installer for win 6.5 and after it is done you should be able to boot into win 6.5.

Hi guys!
I have the same problem.
my question is if I the official ROM is it going to erase/format the old one that I had?
The reason is that I did not backup everything and it would be nice if I could go back and get the rest of my contacts...
Is there any way of having a dual boot
BEWARE: complete noob!!!

Are you honestly incapable of reading? What kind of complete MORON flashes something to their phone without a full knowledge of exactly what it will do?! If you install WinMo again you will have lost all of your data that is on the internal storage of your phone, and to be honest you deserve it if you are stupid enough to flash something without reading about what it does.
On a more positive note, you can flash NAND Android instead of reflashing WinMo if you want, using this guide. Since you would go ahead and flash this without reading up about it, I should probably warn you that IT WILL DELETE WINMO FROM YOUR PHONE! Is that clear enough for you?

[Q] Aaaah im so in a mess please help.

Ok im now in a proper mess.
Ok ive been battling with trying to get Android on my HD2 i have manged no prob with the MAGLDR in the past but wanted to change to the CLK version.
I tried all the tried the tips etc and have downloaded the HD2 Android Nand Toolkit but i just couldnt get it working. Once i thought i did I get CLK wokring I installed the ZIP file but it just got stuck on the HTC splash screen. The only way i can it to actually boot is to put the stock Winmo ROM back on. So at the moment I have the stock ROM just with SPL. As soon as i run the Task29 option in the toolkit it then fails to load. Could somebody please advise me on what to do.

You need Hardspl from Cotulla. Search through the threads you'll find it. but if you had magldr installed you should have all the the necesary elements. using the tool kit you have to hold the volume down than power on. wait for your phone to say usb. Than proceed to task 29. Than when the screen shuts off hold the volume down again before the screen comes on. Pick your partition size, Than hit the partiton button wait for it to do its thing than hold the back key and some text should come on your phone ending with something like fastboot commands suspend. Flash the recovery. than when it go off again hold home until you get in to recovery. Hope that helps.

Cheers for the help. Ive got as far as the revovery install i had a load of text on the screen the last line of wich is 2690 --Portchange-- and the pc is sitting on waiting for device.
