Its all in here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881958
it helped me ...
thats if you go the sd card route which is the simplest i would say
Good luck

I planned flashing to froyos version if that's what you mean !? I also want to choose which OS I want to load when I start my phone.

doesnt the rom that you want specifiy the steps required?

Check out my signature. I have some instructions in my signature that might help. Also you might want to check out CoreDroid here. I find that it´s stable and fast, with some nice eye candy.

Good choice! If you need help, let me know..

does windows mobile 6.5 disappear when I install coredroid?? I would like to have both OS..

Then you need to boot android from SD. Go to the android SD sub forum

No, do NOT run that 1.66 stock ROM on a T-mobile US HD2, it will brick your phone.
and HellocK, you need to be looking through the proper ROM sections for the T-mobile US HD2...this is the area for the european version (Leo).

sorry guys did not mean any harm,only was trying to help,did not realize you was using usa rom.i am sure if you can find something compatiple like the european rom and have 2.15.50 radio update it will work flawlessly.i can recommend also mdj revolution hd with hastarins 8.5.3 that i,m using at the moment its fast and battery life is excellent.
I had that problem a lot when I first started using Android on my HD2, what I do now is every noew ROM I put on first thing I do is go into settings, display, uncheck auto rotate, and turn off auto brightness and set it pretty high, never had that problem again. Give it a shot, maybe it will work.

Change the radio. I had that same problem with the 2.11.50.26 before. I am using 2.14.50 and it work fine. Winmo Rom in VBN 3.14 . And do you have the original card? If you have a crappy sd card won't help the matter.

If you are just wanting to boot Android from SD card, unless you seriously screw up by doing something should not be doing, you are not going to brick your HD2. Click on my guide in my sig to learn some about your HD2 and also make sure to go to the bottom of my guide which is the bottom of post #3 and read the warning about the radio versions you can not flash to the HD2 or you will brick it. PM me if you need to, but please read the stickie threads and the links to guides in the stickie roll up threads also. Ckeck out the "New to XDA?" link in my sig to learn how to get the most out of XDA. Happy hunting!

Just so you know it is not unusual for a SD card build to not boot all the way up on the first time around. But bit usually if you do a reset and try booting it again it boots. Look into getting yourself a dual boot app too, just go to HD2 Windows Mobile themes and apps and do a search for Dual Boot apps or something like that. Turning HTC Sense hels with running Android from SD and also booting Android with in the first 10 to 15 secounds after Windows Mobile boots up helps out to, this is to keep Windows Mobile from establishing a data connection.
If you can't boot download a daf and run daf through USB flasher in magldr

Not being a smart a** but you do realize the OP is talking about running Android from SD card and not NAND right?
At the OP you said you run Unbuntu so you migbt want to check this article out that was in the Portal and follow the dev that is working on it. He is working on a app to " Hot Boot Into Debian From Android in the HD2" I think you might be interested in this, it is a short video there as well.
hi

thanks! i'm interested on that because im able to run android 2.3.3 from SD but when i use it runs smooth and fast but if i power off the screen and stay there for some time it freezes and need to remove the battery.. so would be nice if i can launch ubuntu from android so i would install in nand and launch ubuntu from it.
thanks i've just downloaded the apk from that tool and i'll try it on my HD2.
hi, i know i've asked so many things here, but i still confused,
i read about HD2 leos on here and search here for ROMS for my HD2 but they don't say anything clear.
i was thinking on upgrade it with the official tmobile rom 3.14 i enter my imei and it says it's compatible but, my cellphone it's unlocked, do u know if i upgrade it with the official tmobile update it will get locked again?
i want to upgrade with the official because i don't know if flash HSPL3 on my TMOUS 1024 HD2:
OS Version: 5.2.21892 (21892.5.0.89)
Manila Version: 2.5.20121412.2
ROM Version: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio Version: 2.10.50.26
and i notice that my battery doesn't last that much and i have wifi turned off... and want a better rom, if not a custom rom maybe the official upgrade but i want to know what about if my cellphone locks again to T-Mobile and i can't use it with my carrier.

noob here

OK first off lemme start by saying, I have absolutely no idea how any of this stuff works.. -__-
I recently got an HD2 phone that is running a rom from DFT and it seems to be horrible. phone is constantly freezing and having to be reset, im always dropping service, cant sent MMS messages, Internet is overly slow and my touch doesnt want to work nor does the phone like to go into landscape mode.
with that being said, what is the best rom for me to install and will someone please help me with a sort of step by step how to for noobs?
thank you in advance
I'm using typhoon cyanogen 7. Very stable, fast, great build. If your current build is flashed via dft, all you need is to flash clockwork to install android zip from sd card.

funny thing is me reading isnt helping any, due to the fact idk what ANY of these means anyways, id just like to get my phone running better then it is now. I found the rom i want to install though
if the rom has magldr/clk in the name, put the rom zip on your sd card. Find the clockwork mod download and flash it using usb flasher mode in magldr, you can then go to ad recovery in magldr, install zip from sd card, let it install and you should be good.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
someone on the car forums im on suggested this for me
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957652
would the steps be the same?
That is a build meant to run from the sd card. If magldr is already flashed you should look into nand roms. The installation of the sd rom is very different than the nand rom.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
i hate using sd roms, they are so damn slow..
well.. upgrading hd2 to android from windows mobile is pretty much easy..
1) flash hspl to version 2.08
2) flash radio to >2.15
3) install magldr
4) install clockworkmode recovery
5) install rom
6) enjoy
if you wanna try another rom, just do steps 5 through 6 and 6 again
maybe a few wipe data/cache/dalvik when you get stuck..
either way.. dont rush installing new builds.. first you snoop around this forum for people reporting bugs and stuff that don't work.. and wait for a stable release
btw, i use boyppc v26 build myself.. a bit buggy, but - i like to try out new systems as they appear..
6 in hd2 on android
Flashing radio is optional. I use the 2.10. radio and all is well. I tried 2.15 and everything was extremely slow, data drops, no market downloads, the whole deal was very frustrating. Tried 2.12 and things were fine but it seems that 2.10 is one of the more stable radios that I have used.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
see now the radio thing i dont understand. i also dont know if i have clockwork recovery mode on mine, is there a way to check? <-- dumb question prolly.
i guess what i want is for my phone as close to normal as possible, because rite now im ready to ditch this phone for something that is unrooted. half the time i cant even use it, sending texts is near impossible on the thing, and im constantly dropping calls and service.
since i cant seem to wrap my head around what rom would be good for solving these problems for a noob, could one of you give me the link to what you feel would fulfill my wants?
thanks for takin the time to help

Well then I dont really know what to suggest.
The only way you are going to be able to do any of this is if you read and learn. There is pretty staright forward guides ouy there, If you can follow them then you should probably just sell the HD2 and get a Desire HD or an iPhone.
If you think you need to post those type of comments here, maybe you should look at other areas of your life because it's obvious you are very angry/weak.

dont disagree with u, TheATHEiST often sounds like an angry little man (no offence intended), but the point being made is still valid,
if someone is having trouble follwing the simple guides provided then they really shouldnt be messing with their phone till they've brushed up a bit on their reading & comprehension skills.

Like what cedesmith says in CLK installation, if you are if you need to install it, you should probably not.
Being a noobie is not an excuse nor giving an alibi that you can't understand. If so, get a nokia 3310 instead.

Hd2 help with roms..

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.

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.

[Q] Restore to factory WM stock after Andriod installed

Too many things are not working. And the phone is super slow.
How do I restore a HD2 with android installed back to Windows Mobile stock version? Can you please point me to Wiki, I am looking but I cannot find it.
Thanks,
Download your stock ROM and flash it via SD card - this way, everything will be back to factory status.
Just check the stickies in the WinMo thread, you´ll quickly find what you need.
If this is done will HTC know it has been using Android NAND? So could a phone be sent for repair if this is done?

Well first of all which Android rom did you use?
Did you try others?
Did you read the roms thread for tweaks/fixes?
Some roms can make your device run faster and better then Windows Mobile, You have obviously not tried variosu roms and just gave up after 5 minutes.
You should take your time and try some of the lighter Android roms like NexusHD2 or maybe a CM7 based rom. What you ahve probably tried is a full on DHD sense rom which (at first) will be laggy until OS has had time to settle down and also a few reboots.
I have been using Android since I had my HD1 and more or less since day1 on my HD2, Ive used many roms (thats teh fun part) and have not had a problem overall of slow or too many things not working, It all depends on the rom you use and if you tweak/fix or not.
