I have nand wp7 and sd android, partition the tf, two partitions 12GB fat32 for android, 2GB for wp7(unformatted fat16). The magldr can't recognize my card(I can not set the android folder and find this problem). I find a way to solve: take out the card and then push into phone again when in the magldr. But this way makes me crazy because everytime I restart the phone I must do the thing above again or I can't use the card in wp7 even can't boot the sd android.
Can someone help me to avoid this, thx first

Hello, was just asking the people who maybe in the know here.
Is magldr having problems with reading some SD Cards but not others?
Don't flame as I've kept track with all the latest info, i know WP7 has problems with reading some cards but not many people have mentioned if they work in magldr in the first place
Just wondering

The reason for this is that I don't want to get another card only to find that an update to magldr ends up fixing the problem, I can continue to use two SD cards for now

As far as I know, magldr can read all sd cards fine. Some cards don't work with wp7 correctly, but magldr can read them fine. There is a problem with the USB mass storage mode in magldr, though, so it's not recommended to use the usb mass storage in magldr... either use it in android, clockwork mod, or take card out and use card reader to transfer files.
Yes I do that, magldr defo doesn't read my 16gb Kingston SD card though no matter how I format it.
I stick Android on it and try to set the AD directory and it sends me back to the main menu, my 2gb cards don't do this

What is it that you do? Magldr is suppose to go back to main menu after you select the AD directory... or are you saying it doesn't even show your files. Are you maybe booting into wp7 and that is erasing and formatting your whole card? That could cause your android build to be erased.
No it doesn't even allow me to select a directory it just sends me to the main menu on trying to access the card. Magldr won't read the card at all.

Hello guys.
I have a HTC HD2 running Windows Phone 7 (on MagLdr 1.2).
I want to DualBoot Android AND WPH. Ive watched a tut on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTHRAUHZHlo
I did exactly the same and after that i took this Android DesireHD Built: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881937
It worked fine but android said, that there isnt a sd card in the device. Of course it is, cuz android boots from the sd card. When i remove my sd card, android freezes (of course). I tried to restart and i put the 512 MB data.img in the folder but there was the same problem again..
I tried it with an other card and i pushed the button "mount sd card"
and than it said "u can take out the sd card now" (or something like that)
Plz help me!
I am having the exact same problem. Have you found the problem/solution to it.
thanks.
you both update you magldr that should fix your issues.
so get newest radio, than flsh magldr 1.3
before you update make a complete backup!!
hope you both have the right partition layout on sd card.
(first partition must be fat32 second ext3 or ext4)
hope this helps.
for tut look at forums or pm me!!
Can someone describe the exact steps that are required to mount the SD card when the Android build is being run off the SD card using MAGLDR.

They are running Android from their SD card. It is not going to show a SD card being in the device because Android thinks the SD card is the device......

This will not help them at all, MAGLDR just serves as the bootloader for Android not the OS.
Allso you can not remove your SD card will booted into Android if you are using a SD card build it is running of the SD card not NAND.

So basically I cannot mount the SD card, no matter how it is formatted ?
I totally have this same problem. Neither WP7 or Droid will read the 16 GB card I'm using to run Droid. I think I'm using the DesireHD build also, maybe its that? I can probably see if changing it makes a difference.
I have the same problem. First time i installed WP7 and android, everything was working fine. Then i had to reset WP7 because it kept freezing, i followed the same steps again to dual boot with android and it booted fine but SD CARD is not mounted for some reason. I have tried 3 different android builds with same problem. Any help or tutorials?

This happened to me too with two SD cards. What I did was I run the Partition SD Card from AD Recovery. I forgot the partition layout, just find something that works for you. I was surprised that it has successfully created a partition...this erased everything so I needed to re-copy ROM files to SD card via Card Reader on my PC.
When I did it over, It finally worked. Am now running Sensation XL ROM.

Hi guys !
I've a strange problem, i've bought an Kingston 16Gb SDHC card for my HD2 phone and i want to make a dual boot of WP7 and Android.
The problem is when i start my phone with the SD card it's boot in strange mod same as defaut configuration.
But when i plug my card after screen of magldr it's start normaly and in about i see the space of my SD card.
Other things when i want to start Android, in magldr service when i select ad sd dir it's will be back to home screen.
Magldr possibly have a bug with my card ? or it's my sd card it's wrong ?
I've magldr 1.13 and Xboxmod WP7 rom.
Thks for reply and sorry to my bad english.

Hi
If the sd-card is in device you must start windows phone 7 and make reset,
Settings,Info,Reset your device.
After that windows phone 7 write a 200 mb 16 bit partition on sd.
You can only see it in partition managers. There you can see although an unformatted partition. This is the windows 7 partition.
Follow this tutorial here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944288
to install both operating system on your card .
That works for me and i have the 16 GB Kingston too.

Thanks to your reply.
But i use this tutorial for my dual boot.
that is my procedure :
- Going to setting, about and reset my phone
- Plug my SD Card to my device
- WP7 boot in english mod without tell me setting operation
To have 200Mb fat16 and the rest of SD card in unformated partion i will plug my SD card after Magldr boot screen.
If i plug after i've the setting operation what i request before and when i go to setting, about i see 15,...GB
When i plug my SD card to my computer i see 200Mb fat16 partition and unformatted partition.
If i plug my SD card before Magldr boot screen, when i go to setting about i see 15.14Mb total and 10Mb ok...

Edit :
I've also an 2Gb SD card (so little for dual boot) and i've no prblm for WP7 boot. SD card can be already plug to my HD2 device and i can setting my hd2 as i want.
In setting, about i see all my SD card
Total : 1.64Go
Dispo : 1.52Go

Hello everyone,
Sorry kinda hit a brick wall and can't figure something out. I am dual booting my HD2 from T-Mobile with win phone 7 on nand and magldr sd builds of android. if I put in a sd card with only one partition and android will boot and run ok and android mounts the sd card and can use it.
If I use a sd card formated with one fat32 partition primary active and unknown for win 7 unkown unactive android will boot and not mount the sd card.
so android will run and operate fine but can't use anytnig of the SD card.
is this something wrong with the partitioning or just can't do with partitions now.
I was previouly able to do it before. Just leftphone for a while and came back after a update to Win phone 7 and after reinstalling everything and this is where I gotstuck now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Don't know if you figured it out yet, but here is what I think the problem is.
You need to set the android partition to active.
For additional help go to youtube and search wp7 android hd2.
You will find 96edwysMobile's two part video tutorial on how to do it.
Hope this helps.
Hello there,
I have a HD2 with NAND Android up and running over MAGLDR.
I've noticed that Ubuntu can now be booted over MAGLDR and I have decided to give it a shoot, since it's easy enough to try.
I have done everything that has to be done, but the problem is when trying to boot over MAGLDR I get this message:
"k: zimage sd kernel open failed"
I do have the zImage and the initrd.gz in the root, also the linux folder.
I've tried going to Services > Boot options > AD SD to choose from where to boot, but it jumps back to main menu.
That's the problem and I'm guessing that MAGLDR doesn't recognize my SD card.
Btw, it's a Kingston 8gb formatted to FAT32 Primary.
I hope you guys can help a fellow HD2 owner out!
Is your recognising SD Card otherwise, other than MAGLDR?
I have faced a similar problem where neither WM6.5 or WP7 or MAGLDR or CLK detect the SD Card however it is detected by bootloader.. See link below

Hello,
it recognizes the SD card everywhere except in MAGLDR.
In the mean time I found a exact same thread like my problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1315808
Basically it tells me that my SD card just doesn't work with MAGLDR.
So, has anyone found a solution that doesn't involve buying a new SD card?

Unfortunately that thread is right, your SD isn't compatible with MAGLDR. I have the same problem with my Kingston 16GB class 4, so it appears to be something to do with Kingston cards. You should have received a Sandisk with your phone, which is enough if you want to use SD builds only to try ROMs out, but there isn't much you can do to sort it out I'm afraid.

Alright,
well that's kinda sad, tho I still thank you both for the info.
I'm having a similar issue with my 32gb Sandisk class 4 card. It used to work fine, but then Magldr stopped seeing the file structure for sd boot. With trial and error I used gparted to recreate a ms-dos partition table. Just now magldr sees the file structure again.

Was it this? If not, then would you be able to explain how you did it, please? I have the same issue so it would help. To be fair, I haven't really tried to resolve it properly yet, so it's probably an obvious solution which I missed.
It doesn't work once again...
Tho what I did to make it work is using "MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition":
1.Delete the partition
2.Create Partition: set Primary, set Fat32, set allocation table to 32K
3.Apply
That's basically it, I copied all my files excluding the linux ubuntu I wanted to try over MAGLDR...
Next day I tried to select AD SD dir and it OPENED it up, I was amazed!
I then booted android, selected to copy over usb, copied over Linux(around 3.2GB).
I rebooted back in to MAGLDR, tried to select AD SD dir and the same problem occurred... :silly:
I have no clue what else can be the problem, I tried then deleting the Linux, because it worked without it, and again same problem...
So basically it stopped working after I connected the sd card over usb while on android to copy linux... from that moment I couldn't select AD SD dir any more, just jumps back to main menu.
I would like suggestions if anyone knows what might happen?
Was I lucky to just make AD SD dir working? Or was it the allocation table I mentioned that I changed to 32K?
EDIT:
I've been thinking...
Since my goal is to have an android NAND and a Ubuntu over SD, is that all possible if I switch the bootloader from MAGLDR to CLK?
I've never tried CLK, but I'm sure it boots Android NAND's just fine, but what about Ubuntu over SD? Does it have problems recognizing SD on CLK?
