[Q] Forcing a format of HD2?

Hello!
aaand YES! I screwed my HD2 up, so it cant boot... at all...! :'(
Is there any way i can force a complete format and reinstall the stock 6.5 windows?
(Long story short: installed custom radio, chucky rom and android, worked fine, wanted to install WP7, missed a step, messed it up, and not, it shows the old Chucky loading screen, and then goes into a menu that asks me what i want to do with the device, but i cant select the different options. The phone wont 'activesync' because it wont start up). Anything i can do?
ANY help MUCH appreciatet! willing to do anything to get it to work again, since i dont really want to return to my ooold Sony Ericsson W880i -.-
Thank you all in advance!
Regards, panxter

Oh nvm, got it to work now!
Thank you SO much mate! You made my day... or night, even!

heh, no prob

Just make sure when you're trying to flash any other ROM's just disable USB connections in ActiveSync before you flash as it'll say "USB init failed" otherwise.

Cheers mate!
Now just a minor question, then i'll shut up xD
I just realised that i flashed the new WP7-ROM without the SD-card, which means that it wont register the card now.. (this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953078)
Can i just re-flash it? or what should I do?

Yeah just flash it again using MALGDR. With the SD card in this time.

ok, 1. theres a quetions sub thread for you to post questions in, this is not it.
2. thers a magldr and clokwork thread you could post in, why dont you?
3. your battery doesnt have any juice, so you can either get a standalone battery charger to charge it, or do like i did and cut a usb cable, attach the +5 and negative terminals to teh battery for 5 minutes so it has juice.
and 4. it sounds like you didnt resize your partitions when you flashed the new rom, i cant believe how many newbes overlook that step. specifically it sounds like your boot partition is to small, but thats just a guess.
i can guarantee you this thread will get moved to the questions & answers thread, so dont be suprised when you dont see it here anymore.

Sorry Bro Im A Newb lol But Yeah i guess I skipped that step and i tried to reflash my old Nand Rom and it gets stuck on the DFT Screen And turns off :/ My Hd2 still wont turn on unless its connected to usb

Okay so i managed to get my old rom back up but all my apps and settings were erased:[ how can i get my clockwork mod back up to work?

You have to boot into MAGLDR by holding the power button down while your HD2 powers on. Scroll down to option #8 AD Recovery and press send thos will boot CWM.

Oh and i just tried that but it said theres no boot sources? so im guessing when i flashed my old rom back on it ****ed it up? so do i have to reflash CWM? And if so how do i do the partition so i can get that rom up there? :3 thanks

I would like to piggy back on this problem. When I press option 8 my HD2 does not go into CWM. It hangs at "Load done1 E1 Fatal hit" Has anyone else come across this and knows the fix so I can get into CWM? Thanks

[Q] Is there has anyway to delete ‘initrd.gz’ file?

Hi. Guys. I'm a Chinese fan of HD2. I love this Mobile phone so much!
But. There has something wrong with my HD2's hardware. I was wonder if there has anybody can give me a Working advice. Here is the Problem:
That Power button and down Volume button doesn't work anymore.
The another buttons are working good.
My HD2:
HSPL:2.0.8
MAGLDR 1.13
Android 2.3.5 with Sense 3.5 product by R3Mix(Runny offical 5.1) Rooted
Beccause the buttons reason. I can not use the MAGLDR Menu.
So I've figured out a way.
Make Android booting faiule. That I can use the Menu.
How to delete the boot files.
Thanks

i like your galaxy rom very much~ happy to see you here
---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 AM ----------
a suggestion is that to do a task 29 and you can see the menu

So happy to see you here too. But my HD2's Down Volume button doesn't work! I can not use the Task 29
by the way. I hope you had the best experience with my Galaxy ROM
and I only Posted my Galaxy ROM in China's bbs Website. Where did you get it?
Are you Chinese? 呵呵

type something with Terminal.
Just Like Rom Manager Flash Recovery.
I just don't know how.
Can anybody please help me.
Thanks very much.

U have to repair buttons. Initrd.gz file has nothing to do with buttons. WHen buttons fail u have to replace them.
PS: Pls dont go off topic with posts if its not problem

No. I mean if I deleted initrd.gz file. MAGLDR will not Booting successful. Instead of returning MAGLDR Menu. I had the another HD2. And I've done it on my another HD2. so I could use the up Volume button to choice the MAGLDR options (Because Volume Down button is not working anymore)
ALL I WANNA DO IS TRYING TO OPEN THE MAGLDR OPTION 'Always Boot Menu' TO YES.
So Please help me.
or delete zImage.

Thank you for your advice.
Sorry. I am not good at English. I can't understand

heh, go re-read the post you linked, , , ,what are the first three words?
hint
Hold Volume Down. Press and hold Reset until you see the BootLoader screen. Reset is the hidden button under the battery cover, lower left side below the SD card slot. You need a plastic or wooden stylus (toothpick will work). DON'T use a pencil, the graphite can get into the button and short it.

handy for a broken POWER button, but no use to volume button issues.
not to mention that he is asking to flash from sd in bootloader, and of course, even if you DO get into bootloader, you need to press the vol button to start the flash.
(Not like you to make a mistake, you're normally bang on the money, , , bad day? )

Hey guys,
I'm sorry I can't help or offer any solution, but reading again about a volume button problem just makes me confident that we need to have an option to boot into SPL from clk or magldr.
If I remember correctly, in WM 6.x we could do it using a little executable called "Enterbootloader.exe".
To tell you the truth I've tried ida-ing that *.exe, but I don't have the skills to make something out of it... maybe someone else could give it a try(?).
Nevertheless in the newer version of clk I added an option to navigate through the menu using fastboot commands (simulating volume keys, green button and back button).
Regards!

Haha actually a fairly good day, got some decent GCSE results for the first few things I've done. I guess when I posted that was before I got the results and I was, shall we say, bricking it (although not talking about phones here ) and probably not really thinking. Anyway, @OP sorry about that, I really dunno why I linked that without reading it properly but meh, I guess no harm done if you didn't flash anything yet (aside from maybe getting your hopes up slightly )

Hah, makes sense your mind may be slightly occupied.
Good stuff, grats.

thanx friends.
unfortunally you still need vol down to skip magdlr menu....and boot into tricolor screen.
i guess im stocked with this rom unless i can short vol down mecaniclly i mean from hardware
insert battery and power up then remove short...

Could I solve this proplem if i unlock and install custom rom? just wondering if that would help?!

Hi,
"Smart Mobility" screen
I had that problem too, and did a hard-reset.
Hold Volume Up + Volume Down buttons (hold hard) and press Power switch until you see the warning sign to confirm a hard reset.
The system will do a re-flash of the original Windows Mobile ROM.
Start Android by running HaRET from Windows Mobile
Yes, you have to run HaRET.
You can make it simpler by making a short-cut in Windows Mobile Start Menu.
Tap and hold on HaRET until you see the Dialog Box to Cut, Copy, etc.
Tap Copy.
Go to Device-Windows-StartMenu, paste as a shortcut
These steps are in the Touch HD Manual. If you do not have one, download it from the HTC website.

GBX0C2.3.7 Build is on SD card.
You will need to boot from Windows Mobile first, then run HaRET to reboot to XDAndroid.
If XDAndroid hangs, you need to remove battery, put back battery and power on. Then you see Windows Mobile and do above step again.
Always, from XDAndroid to go back to Windows, you need to Power Off, and then Power On again.

You say you are flashing the original ROM. You mean the original HTC Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM? I understand you can only get this done only from HTC authorized centers.

Put the phone into bootloader by pressing volume down + power button
plug the usb cable to the computer/laptop
and then run the shipped rom executable file... when the tricolor screen displays USB at the bottom.
else extract the RUU_signed.nbh or any file with .nbh extension from the shipped file with zip viewers like 7-zip
rename the file to BLACIMG.nbh
Put into the root of memory card
put the phone into bootloader and follow the screen instructions..

Hi there! I think that you can't reflash even a Original ROM without unlock the phone with new Hard-SPL from Olinex ,considering that you have tried a Hard Reset and nothing happened ,your last option is to unlock the phone and reflash the ship ROM ,or to flash a custom ROM ( is not a good solution if you still have warranty,but still you cand revert your stock SPL:good so ,you have nothing else to lose , all is left for you is to try what i said before . If you don't know how to do it,let me know and i will post the exact links to instructions.

Hi all,
You can try a NAND ROM like the new release of Fagyi. There is an easy step by step manual to installation. You will lose winmo, but you will have a real android.
It looks pretty and he has solved many of the issues of previous versions.
