[Q] Please help! problem with nand android on hd2

Hi
I have a big problem and don't know what is wrong
I was using ultimate droid on nand on my hd2,than i decided to flash shiftpda rom v33 from boyPPC and the problems started. i installed it from my sd card using cwm and when phone rebooted first time magldr said something about missing kernel file. then i tried to flash it again,did task 29 several times,installed magldr and everything again. but it kept saying about missing kernel file. and when i try to install it again cwm says 'installation aborted'. so i decided to flash it from pc with daf.exe. installation was successfull,but phone just reboots over and over again... looks like it will never stop rebooting. dont know what to do please help...

can it be due to wrong radio?

Can you explain the exact steps you made to install this Rom?

well i will explain what am i'm doing right now. i run task 29 and installed radio 2.15.50.14. after that i installed mgldr 1.13. and on mgldr booting screen it said "sd open kernel failed". after that mgldr menu appears. then i choose usb flasher and install rom from the computer. it says installation successful and phone reboots. after that i see mgldr booting screen and everything looks just fine,then i see HTC screen and phone reboots again...and again and again and again. if i will just put the phone on the table it will just keep rebooting forever ((( am i doing anything wrong? i shouldnt because its not the first rom i am installing...and what does that "sd open kernel failed" message mean??? (

1) First of all, boot into MAGLDR and go to services (option 10). Go to boot settings, Boot source and make sure Android from Nand is selected.
2) Unzip the Boyppc v33 package on your computer and install his CWR DAF package that is included with the rom (The boot loops could be due to having the wrong CWR partition)
3) Load CWR and manually wipe data/factory reset, Go into advanced and wipe Dalvik Cache. Once this is done try and reinstall the V33 zip that you said you had already copied to your SD card. Hope this solves the problem

I've had the same problem twice now. "sd open kernel failed" i believe is shown in red correct? all i did to fix it was reflash MAGLDR & Clockworkmod Recovery then reflash the ROM.
i wish i knew why it happened but its always when im going from 1 ROM to the next & not just restarting my phone up. im thinking maybe it was just a bad flash or something but the steps above has fixed it for me now both times.

try to install recovery and intall a ron throught ur sd card ... rom that r instaleed from daf r pretty simple but maybe the rom was corrumpted during the download or there's a missing file that's not flashed to ur phone ... i suggest to install recovery and to copy ur rom to sd ...it's much simple than the first way

[Q] Can someone help me... please..

I'm here with one week old HTC HD2 (TMOUS) unlocked version (from BestBuy). I bought this to install Android. But after reading/searching hours and hours about installing instructions, I'm kinda confused now. I can install but don't know which one to begin and what goes after... pretty much the order of installation.
Currently, I have,
Windows Mobile 6.5 stock ROM
RAM 567MB
Flash memory size 1024MB
ROM version 3.14.531.1(04666) WWE
Radio version 2.15.50.14 (do I need to reflash radio?)
Manila version 2.5.20181424.0
Do I need to re-flash Radio?
I prefer to install cLK bootloader after reading 'senior member T-Macgnolia's' tutorial. Can someone kindly tell me, what to install and in which order?
How do I find cLK versions of HD2 Android ROM's? Any suggestions for better ROM?

Hi!!!
I don't use clk, I prefer magldr, but this is a guide to use clk:

hope it'll help you, otherwise someone else can help you better than me.
Your radio version I think is correct, I use it too, like all other people I think...
You find clk version of HD2 rom's generally in first posts of thread about NAND rom in HD2 Android NAND Development:

Roms: if you want a Sense rom, this is the best in my hopinion, very fast and smooth for a sense rom:

I actually use this, has some problems (bluetooth, camera) but I like it very very much...
Otherwise, if you prefer non-sense rom, this is the best in my hopinion:

Your radio is correct,but you should flash HSPL before you flash custom WM ROMS or android builds. Ensure you flash the correct version of HSPL for your TMOUS. And as for the better builds, you should try them out yourself.It really depends on what you want.Sense,CM7,MIUI,MAGLDR,CLK...

Try reading the guides in the sitckies of the NAND Android forum, especially MSkip's tutorial on how to flash NAND Android with Clockwork Mod.
Your radio is correct.
Install HardSPL (HSPL) 2.08 first.
Then install MAGLDR (I would recommend this as it's easier than CLK from what I've read.)
Select your ROM (don't flash yet)
In the OP of the ROM there will be guides as to which CWM partition you need etc, just download the right partition size and flash it. One of the reasons I recommend MSkip's tutorial is that all of the files are at the bottom of the post.
Flash the ROM via CWM.
Seeing as in the OP you said you understand how to flash the things, you should understand that I hope. Good Luck.

Thanks Ty5982, I followed one guide and installed cyanogenmod 7 ROM. What I did was
HSPL 2.08
(didn't touch radio since it's correct)
MAGLDR Bootloader 1.13
ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3 (made v1.3 150MB partition)
then went to 8. AD Recovery and installed ROM on the SD card using ClockworkMod Recovery.
As you said now I'm really interested about PYRAMID ROM since it has SENSE. Can you please tell me where to start with now?
Do I have to remove 'ClockworkMod Recovery'? or do I need to install RECOVERY 2.4?

Thanks for the input. I did my first ROM installation... whhooohhoo . Thanks for all the help you all give here.
Now I'm really interested about PYRAMID ROM. But installation instructions doesn't say anything about CWM partition and it talk about different tools (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1185087)
Can you please tell me how I can remove this ROM and install PYRAMID ROM. Where should I start?

Thanks for the instructions (hit the button ) and I greatly appreciate it. When I change FLASH file, how important is that numbers and how it change the behavior of my ROM?
I'm asking because I saw your first reply and went to SENSE 3.0 PYRAMID V 6.0 ROM and installed it. But original thread instruct to change " system ya 160M " and yours 180M.
Some how I managed to install it and first it was okay but I noticed ROM is kind of slow and Wi-Fi didn't work.
Any help with that issue??? (anyway I'm gonna re-flash it with your instructions)

[Q] ClockworkMod Recovery problems

I'm a noob and getting really frustrated.
I Wipe (Type 29) my phone and reinstalled MAGLDR v1.13, Radio & HSPL 2.08 just fine with HD2 Android NAND Toolkit. I can't get CWM on my phone to save my life. When I go to AD Recovery it says "No boot source" and I don't know how to get it back so I can load a new ROM.
PLEASE HELP ME IF YOU CAN!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much in advance for your help.

you said youve flashed hspl, radio, and mag ... you made no mention of flashing a CWR. just as a rom has to be flashed to boot up ... so does CWR or else theres nothing to boot. im not trying to flame or insult ... sometimes we miss the small things in our hurry to get to the party! i truly hope its as simple as this :-D
go to usb flasher (i believe option 5 in magLDR) and flash the CWR. Then boot AD Recovery ...

That is strange the toolkit should have installed CWM, but it seems that it didn't. Your next option is to download CWM and install it manually. Just be sure that the flash.cfg is setup correctly for your phone and rom that you want to install. the latest version is 5026 and can be installed via usb from magldr.
You can get it here at the end of the second post.

[Q] HD2 stuck at boot: bricked?

Hi,
a friend gave me an HD2 which stopped booting about three months ago, when he tried to install android on it, without really knowing what he was doing.
I have a bit of experience in installing custom roms in some android devices (HTC Vision, Samsung P1000...), but I know nothing about HD2 or any windows phones.
This is what it says after switching on:
tinypic.com/r/2hywdp4/5
This is after switching on with windows key pressed:
tinypic.com/r/29y43fb/5
This is after switching on with volume key pressed:
tinypic.com/r/25i3f9c/5
[sorry I can't create links because I'm new to xda]
Is there a way to go back to a working status?
If I fix it, I'll earn some glory and a free beer.
The final aim would be to install a NAND android rom, preferably CM7 or similar.
Thanks a lot.

Correct me if i'm wrong guys, but this pic :
tinypic.com/r/25i3f9c/5
is the bootloader mod and it says that you have HSPL 2.08
In my opinion, you just have to flash back a windows 6.5 ROM and follow the whole process to get android (Flash MAGLDR, [....] , and flash a CM7 NANDROID Rom using the clockworkmod) refering to the tutorials in the NANDROID section.

Its not bricked. Just restart the process to install Android as jediL pointed out and you should be good to go. Check here for a detailed explanation on how.

Ok the pictures help a lot. From what I see the first picture is what you see when you boot a HD2 that has clk installed for the custom bootloader but does not have as Android ROM in memory to boot. This is the only reason you well ever see clk at all if you just power on a HD2 with clk installed.
The second pictures is clk trying to boot into recovery but is not able to. It probably either has some kind of problem booting the flashed version or it just does not have a custom recovery flashed to it. My bet is it does not have a custom recovery flashed to it. As most people have problems Glasgow.g a recovery after flashing clk if they are not using the HD2 NAND Toolkit.
The third picture is the the stock bootloader of the HD2 and yes it shows you have HSPL 2.08 installed so you are good with HSPL and do not need to flash HSPL 2.08 to your HD2.
Now to get you on to getting Android up and running. Seeing as you already have clk on your HD2 you do not need to flash it. You do need to flash a custom recovery and you can either check out the guide linked in my sig to flash it via fasboot comands manually or you can use the HD2 NAND Toolkit to flash it in a more automatic way, or to be more specific a more noob friendly way. There is a link to the toolkit in the guide linked in my sig.
You need to pick out what Android ROM you want to use and read the first few post by the ROM chef to see what partition size you need to have and use the Toolkit to repartition the NAND memory to that size. Next download the .zip file for the ROM, make sure you get the version that is for clk. Some ROMs have only one version though that works with MAGLDR and clk. Next copy the .zip to the root of your SD card and then power on your HD2 holding down the home button and your recovery will boot up. Then just find the option that says install from SD card and then select the ROM file and flash it.

I installed HD2 NAND Toolkit.
I executed the following operations:
- Wipe (Task29)
- cLK repartition (150mb)
- cLK install recovery
then I rebooted into CWM recovery and installed the HyperDroid rom.
Now I have a fully working CM7-based android phone!
Thanks a lot!

[Q] **** Solved **** Cannot install Nand Roms....

:victory:****** Solved *******
Hi, thank you for all of your help and assistance.
It was all down to selecting the correct partitions (and me getting over enthusiastic in flashing roms and not reading FULLY on how and what partitions are required)
I have used HD2 Nand toolkit, and partitioned MAGLDR, then partitioned SD card within Clockworkmod.
Thank you all again for pointing me in the right direction...
Good Evening All,
I am sorry if this has been covered. I have searched the forums but cannot find an answer.
I have read all the FAQ and How-to's.
I am not an exact newbie, I have owned a HD2 before (about 2 years ago) and could install all sorts of different roms (including NAND)
I have Installed my Radio 2.15.50.14
I have installed HARD SPL 2.08
I have Installed MAGdlr 1.13
I ahve installed clockwork mod recovery 1.3 with 400M
Copied rom to root of SD Nexus HD2 jellybean v1.2 [dataonext]
and I have installed Nexus HD2 jellybean v1.2 [dataonext]
this installed fine,
I then decided to try another,
I downloaded QSEA_JB-MUSIC EDITION_V1 and placed on root of SD,
I booted into Magldr, then into clockwork mod
from here i wipe data, and factory reset,
wipe cache partition
and wiped delvic cache.
Then i install zip from sd card QSEA_JB-MUSIC EDITION_V1
when this is done,
It asks me to reboot,
Then it stays on the boot screen, and the rom does not load.....
I can restore the back up from the original rom install. but whatever rom I install (from Nand rom downloads) none of them install...
Please help...

1-Why? Use the HD2 NAND Toolkit to partition your system according to the developer.
2- Never reboot directly from the "reboot now" option of amarullz's installer. Instead, uncheck the "reboot now" option, click finish and reboot manually from CWM.
(The reboot option somehow makes your rom not boot, at least that happens to me every time)

I will give it a go!
Have already downloaded toolkit, and just watching the video on how to use...
Matt:fingers-crossed:

So, do I just use Magldr to partition and don't install CWM?
I tried to re-partition with CWM, but lost magldr.....
What am I doing wrong?
Still cannot install NAND rom.
Going to do Task 29 again, where from there??
Thanks for your help and patience...

try the links below, it might help

I don't use magldr, so I am not sure.
But I think you have to "MAGLDR recovery update" first, and then after it finishes you have to "magdlr repartition". Im not sure though.

How do I just install clockwork mod? Without using Magldr?
If I Task29 first,
What's my next step.....?

After Task29 (don't do task29 again) you have to do the following: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25781675#post25781675 until you see the "recovery" .. from there, dont continue to flashing wp7, just put your rom on your sd and flash it from recovery. (don't forget to thank the the one who made the thread/guide)
Don't forget to NOT use 300mb, but use the one written on your rom's thread.

You can't have CWM without MAGLDR. If you've flashed CWM you shouldn't have lost MAGLDR at all, so I don't know what you did wrong. Task 29s are also almost always useless and unnecessary, if a guide says 'task 29' as the first step then usually you can just skip that part. I find that the best guide is the one in my sig, try it out.
