I used another android phone to format the SD card, but other have used 3rd party software to do it. Search the forum and you will find what...

hey...
iam using t-mobile HD2 :
ROM version-2.13.531.1
radio-2.10.50.26
protocol ver-15.39.50.07U
and i want to install android on my phone. i have been reading quite a few threads everyday but the more i read i guess the more confuse i get.
some say that u should use HSPL.. some are against it... some say that we should flash android from SD card , some are again against it..
WHAT I NEED:-
1)i want to put android in my phone. preferably 2.2 froyo as i think that 2.3 mite be heavy for HD2.
2) i dont want dual OS. that is i just want android on my phone and not android and windows 2gethr.
please guide me. which steps should i follow...??

NAND means is short for NAND. memory/ NAND chip. This is what is called the flash memory of the HD2. It is also where the Windows Mobile OS is. So if you flash a NAND Android ROM you will wipe Windows Mobile, also your HD2 will boot into Android when you turn your HD2 on. You have to have MAGLDR or cLK to do this though.
Installing to NAND is faster and more stable, since the SD card might not have the read/write speeds to supply the OS. What is more, running Android from SD is booting up WinMO first and Android second, which is obviously slower.
I have a DesireHD ROM on my HD2, I have tried gingerbread builds too but without Sense it sucks imo. Hardware is more than enough, SetCPU just rocks (overclocking).
There is a nice and comprehensive guide on how to install the stuff, first HardSPL, then flash a new radio, then install MAGLDR, then flash an Android build (preferably rooted, I have had problems with rooting since z4root does not work).

-Yes. It will wipe your Winmo completely
-Yes. If you flash NANDROID, then you will only have Android.
-Some NANDROID ROM works, some dont. It really depends on your handset conditions and the rom itself. You might experience that you cant flash certain Nandroid Rom while others can, vice versa. But dont worry, there are many roms you can try out and see it if it is suitable for your needs

hey..
thanks for the link... actually iam also using SD American Android at the moment...
it is working fine but it does crash now and then.. i usually have to shift applications to phone to make them work properly.. or else it crashes a lott...
so 1 final question...
do you advice to put NANDROID...?? i mean if American Android is working fine then should i go for nandroid or not..??
will it increase the performance and will the freezes decrease..??
im glad i switched to nandroid. it is a lot faster, stable and no freezes.
HI, I'm running Android 2.2 Desire Sense from Nand. Magldr 1.3 I was wondering if I can download another Rom to my SD card from my phone and flash? I'm new to this so any links to download any great roms to my phone would help. Thanks in advance. Also, I believe windows is wiped from the phone and when I go into Rom Manager is detects my phone as an HTC Desire. I'm so confused.

Yes and No. It all depends on what system partition you have. If you want a new ROM on your phone you need to go choose one and read teh instructions.

There is all the roms you need in the dev section.
What type of rom do you want? ie what kind of build do you prefer, HTC Sense, Stock Android, Cyanagen Mod, MIUI ??

Well your confusion confuses me, what has windows got to do with rom manager?
Windows is gone yes, You installed MAGLDR which wipes windows allowing you to put Android on the nand in its place.
It says HTC Desire because that is the build you have installed on your device.
If you are new to all this I would highly recommend taking the time to go read some guides etc and learn all the info you need is there waiting for you. There is also a HD2 Toolkit in the NAND forum in sticky topic.
I'm a fan of HTC Sense. Sorry for confusing you, I'm new to this whole flashing thing. I've looked many times trying to find any kind of rom to download with no luck.

So where have you tried because you are obviously looking in wrong place if you cant find any roms lol.
You need to go into the HD2 Android NAND Developmet section.
If you like sense roms you should try this one..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931126
Its based on the stock Desire build but is more stable and has more features.
Are you asking if you can run to roms at the sometime similar to how a SD build works or are you asking if you can put a different new nand Rom on your phone because you would like to try out other roms?
Also if you look under hd2-android-nand you will find a list of roms you can download to your SD card to flash.

if you take a look at this link http://android.hd2roms.com/ you will find all the ROMs listed for the htc hd2 posted here on XDA. it will show you some basic info about each ROM like if its a sd or nand build, as well as give you information on if it has sence or not. definitely worth taking a look at.

You´d have to store the RUU.exe file directly on your SD card, then extract it, and finally save the ROM image file as "leoimg.nbh". If this does work with any Windows Mobile compression/decompression software, I never tried.
Or, if you do have HSPL on your phone, maybe it will work with any custom ROM, directly stored onto your SD card.

Why on earth would he want to do that?? That is to flash Windows Mobile.
Hes asking about Android roms, Hes basically asking if he can download a CWM zip file via his phone and then flash that without need for PC.
@ OP
Yes you can do this but ONLY if your system partition that you currently have is compatible with teh rom you intend to flash. For example some roms need say 150MB partition, If you try and flash one that has more it wont work.
What you would o if you have compatible partition is..
Download CWM zip rom
Power off phone (do not reboot it can corrupt SD on HD2 Android)
Power on phone
Hold power until MAGLDR menu displays choices
Choose AD Recovery
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe Cache
Advanced>Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install zip from sdcard>Choose zip
Yes by far TheATHEiST instructions are the way 2 go. i might point out its worth keeping maybe the top 2 ROMs you like best on your SD if you have the space that is. this will allow you 2 go between ROMs on the fly.
Awesome!! That's the answer I've been looking for. Thanks so much!!!

If you take a look at this post cmylxgo gives a very easy to follow instructions on how to flash his roms. he also supplies all the software right in the thread so you dont have to jump around and look for files else all over since its all in one place including how to flash magldr v1.13 & updating Clockworkmod Recovery Partitions. there are other threads that break it down even farther if you arent able to get it working.
We've gotten alot of response from the Desire community so thank you all for your help. At this time we do not need any more testers for the desire. BootManager should be updated with support for the Htc Desire in the next few days. The app currently won't support rom's that use apps2sd and data2sd but our team is working on getting support for those as well. Thanks.
Hey guys my team has developed an app called bootmanager which went into the market today. The app let's you install rom's to your sdcard and boot between them. I had originally done an inc only version here that used your recovery for installing rom's. The new app installs the rom's directly through the app and then let's you boot between them. Anyway on to the point of this post...i'm looking for 1 or 2 beta testers to add support for the desire. You'll need a little knowledge of adb, root of course, and just a little bit of patience. So far has worked pretty well on every htc device wev'e tried so I'm confident we can add support for the desire as well. You can get a little more info about the app from the link in my sig or looking at it in the market. If your interested pm me so I can get the info needed for the desire(.i.e partition sizes and a few other things that i'll tell you how to find in adb) and I'll send the apk for you to try. Thanks for your help....
Very interesting app! Would hboot have to be compatible (ie right size) with all the installed roms or as they are installed to SD does it not matter?

by hboot your refferring to the bootloader? This doesn't change the bootloader. It makes img's on your sdcard which hold your system/data/cache files for the rom, then it edits the boot.img for that rom to point to those img's when booting. Then the app flashes the boot.img for the rom you want to boot too.
I would be very interested in trying this out as I pretty much change my ROM on a daily to weekly basis haha, I just can't stop! This would be a good way to nurture my need for all the ROMs I switch between all of the time.
Would this app work on a non rooted phone? I mean having the stock ROM in the phone and a rooted one on the SDcard. But I guess it wouln't...

No you need an unlocked bootloader to switch the boot.img. And root to do a number of other things involved in setting up the rom.

Once you go MIUI you don't go back I can't bring myself to use anything else LOL!
Oh I tried MIUI-XJ, it's nice to know that you're happy with it ^^ I used it for about three to four days and felt that I was using an iPhone more so than an Android and I prefer the feel/look of Android devices... I loved being able to theme it so easily, though. I like the transparency mods in NeoPhyte ROMs and bits and pieces of many others... I should just figure out how to make my own.
I hope that you got my response, Conap! My sent items folder said I hadn't sent anything but I am most positive that I did so I will wait to hear back from you =D.
Yeah, sure I could help with the testing... Do you want somebody with that knows ADB etc..?
got Miui XJ on phone rom and tried to boot CM7.
working without problems so far!
thank you. gonna look into this now
Should we run the update after the rom has been installed, so it updates the boot.img ? Haven't tried running the update.zip directly from bootmanager yet, but works fine from recovery.
Installed MIUI-108050 on my HTC Desire (stock boot/S-ON)
looks fantastic....im new to android and my desire but i am currently using neo's reflex s rom and i love it...i really want to try MIUI but i love reflex!

You have to download cwr 3.02.4, and modify flash.cfg. I wrote a little guide yesterday, you can find t here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1256610
post no. 8, it helped the user, I hope can help you too. This post referred to a tmous hd2, but it's the same thing for eu version. The only difference is the partition... You have to modify it like that:
misc ya 1M
recovery rrecov|ro|nospr filesize recovery-raw.img
boot yboot|ro 5M
system ya 195M
cache ya 5M
userdata ya|asize|hr allsize
Then, if you don't have, you have to do ext partition on sd card...

This is what you have to do:
1. format your sd card (fat32)
2. go to cwr
3. choose ad recovery
4.choose advanced
5.choose partition s. you can choose the size as you prefer, it depends on the capacity of your sd, but it can be max 2gb... swap must be 0.
6. done

this procedure will erase your sd,so make a backup:
in mgldr-ad recovery-advanced-partition sd card-1024 (or 2048)-0
so you'll have 1gb or 2gb sd-ext3 partition with 0 swap size
