[Q] cannot install any zip via CWM - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

i have a really big issue, for some reason i am unable to install any rom through cwm, i follow the instruction in every rom i tried and failed. in CWM, when i pick "Choose zip from sdcard" and then the rom, the installation stays for like less than a second, i tried to download and install magldr 1.13, ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.5, and the Rom A LOT and still fail though, i tried googling the solution but failed to find one...by the way i am familiar with task 29, tried it twice and failed... for some reason i dont have an issue with installing Roms via DAF...any solutions????!!!!!!!!

Also, there isn't a CWM v3.0.0.5 for the hd2, the current version is 1.13

Maybe wrong CWM partition.
How do you copy the .zip to the SD card?

sry to write that wrong, yes i do have the latest CWM, i copy my zip using a card reader

So you put your phone off, get your SD card in your pc, Copy the .zip to the root of your sd. (Safe remove the SD card from pc)
Put SD back in phone, phone on, open CWM, select: Install zip from sd card, select the .zip.
and in the installation progress it just goes off? Can you try another ROM, see if that's the problem.

tried a few different roms and the same issue keeps happening...any solutions?

Start from scratch, Winmo 6.5, Task29, Magldr 1.13, CWM 1.13 and hope for the best.

i tried doing that now....again, and still fail..

dear GOD i cant believe using a sandisk adapter would be fixing the whole thing and that a card reader wouldnt work...though thanks alot for ur help man!!

you are probably putting the 'clk' version of the rom in your storage card for installation. you need the 'magdlr' version of the rom for clockwork mod to correctly install android

Wow I cant believe this worked. You have 2 recoveries, MAGLDR and CLK. So one would think you use the CLK rom with the CLK recovery, and the MAG rom with the MAG recover.
NOPE!!
You use MAG rom on CLK recovery. Jesus christ I spent 3 hours on this.

flashing CWM without usb/daf.exe

Is there any way to flash a CWM recovery via sdcard on magdlr? My usb cable is broken...
Thanks in advance.
No. MAGLDR does not have such an option, and well, if it did, what would be the use of CWM on our HD2's?
You can transfer about anything using dropbox from the Market to your SD card. But I'm afraid you can't execute DAF without linking it to your computer.
Basicly the only problem for magldr is that you can't partition your NAND. Everything else you can. For CLK I'm now searching a other way since there is a nbh image which you can flash through sd with all kinds of partitions. problem here is that I can't install CWM after flashing the nbh. Now.. I'm searching for a nbh with clk and cwm in it with all kinds of partitions. If we have those, you can install android without USB.

[Q] 28JUNE2011 NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.8

Today I downloaded the Nexus HD2-Gingerbread V2.8 and moved it to my SD card, I then went in to MANGDLR and to AD Recovery>Install Zip From SD Card>Choose ZIP From SD then selected the zip file. Everything loaded fine but when I restarted it sat on the green "HTC" screen for over 30min so I decided to wipe everything by reinstalling stock WinMo 6.5 then started from scratch with re-installing MANGDLR and ClockWorkMod then tried again and got the same result. Any Ideas?

Yes, it's really important what CWM partition you use. You should post those info's when asking, which makes it easier to answer your question

a) Do task29
b) Install MAGLDR
c) Install correct CWM partition
d) properly format your sd card (sdformatter full>overwrite with size adjustment)
e) partition card with CWM (if needed)
f) copy rom zip over and flash.
Sorry
What I meant to say is I was upgrading from V2.7 to V2.8. I ended up re-flashing V2.7 then rebooting back into MANGDLR and then flashing V2.8 and it worked. Trial and error I guess. What do you guys think it could have been?
Market Place Download Issue
Is anyone else having issues downloading from the marketplace? I am able to go online and send something to my phone and it will install but if I go through the marketplace on my device I get an error message "Download was unsuccessful, please try again" when downloading or updating an app. Help please.

Unable to download from the market.
Okay so after researching this issue online and seeing that the common fix is reformatting the SD card and partitioning I recalled an article about Windows Phone 7 locking up SD cards so that they were unusable to any other device. They were taking advantage of what Secure Digital was designed for. People were trying to reformat cards using computers running Windows and Linux and other devices but nothing worked. Eventually someone remembered that Nokia still gives their devices full SD permissions and formatting the SD card with a Nokia device fixed the SD card and allowed it to be used in another device. I decided that if it could do that maybe my Nokia N8 could solve my SD issues too. So instead of going through the lengthy processes I was seeing online I popped the SD card into my N8 and formatted, it worked like a charm. So although Nokia has disappointed me time and time again they do some things right, thank you Nokia.

Hi,
It seems that you have done everything correctly.
Did you transfer the ROM to your card by cable or card reader?
Try putting the ROM on to your card by card reader,and re-installing the ROM.

Hi, thx for replying. I tried to transfer the zip file by the magldr mass storage but it keeps hanging. I had to flash to the stock rom to transfer the zip file. i re-installed 3 times and finally gave up.
After installing the MAGLDR 150MB System/5MB Cache (ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.2.5), i used the boot android from sd and it could not locate the initrd and zimage. after putting those file into the card, i was able install it. But failed to load the kernel thingy.
Thanks

[Q] Can i repair cwm recovery?

Hello,
Ive magldr cwm recovery installed, and a magldr NAND rom.
Yesterday i tried to play with rom manager.
I didnt know it only work with clk, and i made the mistake to update recovery throug rom manager.
So it broke my MAGLDR cwm recovery :-(
My question is : can i repair my MAGLDR cwm recovery without wiping my rom?(because i didnt recently do a nandroid backup)
Thx for your help.
Unfortunately, no you can't.
The only way to fix your cwm is to re install cwm. And that will wipe off your rom, data and everything else.
Edit:
wow, i never knew about that !

If your phone still don't boot, reflash your Rom without wipe maybe can help

We are just writing an image to the already created recovery partition,, not using daf to write a partition layout. It's just like flashing a rom, but only the recovery partition is affected.
In the android nand section, titled something like "clockworkrecovery, nand,SD, ver 5.0.2 yes/no stable" or something, (currently top post
Get both
recovery_5.0.2.6_leo_sd.zip (3.93 MB, 1153 views)
and
recovery_5.0.2.6_leo_CWR.zip (4.25 MB, 3415 views)
Extract and copy the SD card ver onto SD card (copy the two files to SD, done)
And then copy the whole cwr.zip to SD card too.
Then, into magldr, "ad SD" will boot into the cwm files you placed on SD, and choose instal zip from SD,,, choose zip,, and select the cwm.zip you also placed on SD.
This will write the cwm image into the recovery partition without reflashing the cwm partition layout, so nothing lost.
it worked
thank you for your help and your very precise explanations
welcome. Its worth leaving those two files on the SD in case recovery fails for whatever reason, since you can backup and restore just like in nand cwm recovery.

i could not get into the CWM menu, but with your help i was able to flash to a new custom rom.
In attempting this, I get the following error:
Writing recovery partition...
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/recovery.img", "recovery")
E:Error in /sdcard/recovery_5.0.2.6_leo_CWR.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
Any help?
Perhaps the recovery partition is too small? Perhaps you don't have a recovery partition? Check the flash.cfg you last used for partition sizes you used.
Alternatively, use the SD cwm to make a backup and do a fresh flash.

I have the same error as the person above you. Do you recommend using the SD cwm to flash Recovery_150M_system_44M_cache[v3.0.2.4].zip? I cannot recall what flash.cfg I used.
I think I may have no recovery partition if I recall correctly. I digged through my old files I think this was the flash.cfg I usd:
misc ya 1M
recovery rrecov|ro|nospr filesize recovery-raw.img
boot yboot|ro 5M

cache ya 44M

I had the same error. I made a copy of the recovery_5.0.2.6_leo_CWR.zip and copied my original CWMRecovery's recovery-raw.img on top of the new zip's recovery_leo.img file. That got me past the error and AD recovery works now.
Thanks for that just fixing mine as well now

This ROM needs a MAGLDR 1.13 installed on your HD2 and you need to flash CWM Recovery first with downloading the Recovery and then flashing into your HD2 with DAF.exe and once it's complete, you can install any MAGLDR rom for CWM Recovery from AD Recovery Menu. If you need more details or help, do not hesitate to PM me.

... have you tried releasing the write protect switch? To be fair, I don't know what that is but just have a look around, I'm sure you'll be able to find it somewhere.
Solution as follows in this case:
Insert your micro sd card into an sd adapter and make sure the switch is up on the card, this hould release the "write-protection" and in your computer try to copy some files into your SD Card and you will see. If this is succeeded then just pull out the micro sd from it's dapater becaue i am assuming last time you use the micro sd in an adaptor (converter to normal SD) the switch was pulled down and it enabled the write protection on the micro SD.
Please let me know if this worked for you.
HI! well u need to install the rom from MAGLDR. go to the 8th option 'AD recovery' to boot into clockworkmod. If u havent installed it, please do so. Search for the partition required by those roms and install the appropriate CWM. There r many guides for doing this. BUt you can always PM me and i will personally guide you with links and evrything
Give me a thanks if u found this helpful
