Misleading guide, please help me

Hello,
I am following these instructions: quazen.com/shopping/consumer-...d-on-hd2-nand/[/url]
They have told me to download this rom: hotfile.com/dl/107403482/000fc93/full_rafdroid_hd_ext_3r2.zip.html
Now that I am on step 4 I am supposed to run setup.exe from the rom, but it doesn't have any setup.exe file in it, only 3 folders titled (boot, META-INF, system). I am on MAGLDR right now in USB flasher mode and dont know what to do. Please help me. Thanks

yea that guide is garbage looks like its for the dft flash version
most roms now use cwm to flash so you might wanna do some reading thru this section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905841
How do I get this off my device now? Or do I not need to remove it
enter magldr, flash a diferent dft rom,
or
enter magldr, flash clockwork, enter magldr, enter clockwork, flah a zip rom (recommend you learn this method)
I tend to stay away from guides that all the links are just hotmegaupfile type links. if you want magldr, surely best to get it from the magldr thread, same with roms, hspl, everything.
safety first.
Yea just follow guides from xda only.
I think that http://quazen.com/shopping/consumer-electronics/how-to-get-android-on-hd2-nand/ should be closed.
That have nothing to do with XDA and so its not have any support here.

Installation of rom with and without DAF.exe

Hi,
I installed android 2.2 (NAND) on my HD2 yesterday. I did this using MAGLDR first and then an unknown android 2.2 rom with a DAF.exe inside it. Now I want to update 2.2 to CyanogenMod 7 (2.2.3). But the CyanogenMod folder doesn't contain a DAF.exe file.
How can I install it?
cm7 rom requires that u flash latest clockwork recover mod and then do the installation via it for further help u can fell free to pm me

Flash desired CWM and then follow instructions from your ROM thread.
I prefer SD-files recovery version ;-)
Thanks
HELP
Hi guys,
I have a big problem. I want to install this ROM on my HD2, but if i download this file i cant find the DAF.exe so how do I install it now? I already installed HardSPL 2.0.HSPL and I can enter the bootloader screen from MAGLDR. But if i do USB Flasher what must i do on the PC then i only downloaded some mapping with files in it but no .exe files or something like that. Hopefully some1 can help me.
I confused realy hard
I found a old DAF.exe file on my PC but if i use that he install a old android rom i want a new one how do i fix this?
you have to flash clockworkmod in magldr. then you can flash the rom within cwm. i bet that this is explained in your rom thread. please read the stuff before you flash something.

Noobie Question about ICS

I can't post in the development forums so I figured I would ask here:
I understand how to use adb and fastboot, etc.. What I am missing is with the new ICS ROM it states that I must "fastboot flash system system.img"; however none of the ICS zip file I have seen come with a system.img file (just the boot.img).
Am I missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated..
I used the version available on Rootzwiki... not sure if thats the answer you wanted. I'm running 4.0.3 ICS on my wifi XOOM OC to 1.54. No FC's, reboots or anything of the sort. You'll need to be sure that you have su-install.zip, and other img files needed. As I said, you'll find them all on the rootzwiki website under xoom hope this helps, if not good luck.
You are talking about two different things here. I don't know where to start here you're all mixed up. There are several ways to flash a ROM, you can fastboot flash the .img files such as what you are referencing to. Or you can flash an update .zip file from recovery. The way you flash the ROM depends on the source, if its a bunch of *.img files you use fastboot, if it's a *.zip file you use recovery. Just follow the directions given for installation that are provided with the ROM you are downloading.

Hello, and welcome to XDA! =] Anyways on with your question. There are two ways to flash a ROM to your xoom. One being fastboot/adb, where you use the command line on your computer to send commands to your device and make it do stuff. This is where you use system.img, boot.img, recovery.img.
The second, is CWM (ClockWorkMod recovery) This, as far as im aware, is the most common way. This is where the .zip's come in. Because you take the .zip you put it on your external SD card. boot into recovery (after flashing CWM of course) and flash the rom. CWM is nice because you can also make a 100% snapshot of your internal memory state via making a nanodroid back up. That way if anything messes up you have a 100% backup you can restore at anytime if you need it.
In a nutshell, You use *.img files with fastboot and .zip files with CWM.
Anyways. If you're new to rooting. Please check out these two threads, They'll help you get started. =]

The second guide I did use to flash my own zoom so I can assure you it does work.

[Q] Flashing stock 7.006.03 fails

I'm having trouble flashing the stock rom vache has provided on the dev forum. (SD_Acer_A500_7.006.03_COM_GEN1.zip).
Downloaded fine, used the decrypt tool with key $12, Clear/wipe/format everything, and try to install with CWM.
Problem install aborts.
Can anyone help? I am assuming either the download is incorrect/incomplete, or the decrypt hasn't worked? Has anyone been successful with this rom?

Did you download an official acer rom from vaches thread
is it a full rom or just an incremental update - better check!
yes it could be a bad d/l - where did u get it
If it didnt decrypt you can check by trying to open it in windows. You wont be able to 'open' (not extract....) the zip if it is still decrypted
did u extract the actual "update.zip" and flash that?
make sure the you havent named it "update.zip.zip"
how did u try and install with cwm
if u use flash zip choice u dont have to rename it to update.zip
u do if u pick flash update.zip
What rom are u currently running??
Many thanks for the help, it was me being a noob and not extracting the update.zip file.
thanks again

Why modify?
Hey buddy, why modify a nbh when you just can install a Recovery?
Afaik you have to install the cLK (or MAGLDR in my case) and then flash your preferred recovery image.
You may use this handy tool, but read the manual first
