Please help...
I have TMOUS HTC HD2 with no working SD card SLOT.
I want install android to NAND and use mobile without SD CARD.
It is possible install some android without SD CARD? It is possible install android from computer by USB cable?
I try first android DFT_Android (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893620=android+2.3)
But it is old, it is possible install some a newer?
And - if i install DFT_ANDROID, i cannot install applanet -
It write message, that it needs an SD card .... can be appplanet loaded into internal memory? how to do it?
I want use HTC HD2 totally without SD card (SD CARD slot not working)!
Thank
possible but not probable.
CWM utilizes SD Card, ie picking up the update.zip (or any *.zip) from SD Card mainly. So you can rule out CWM.
DFT, sounds like it's only DFT for you, and flash from Windows. So you can "limit" your search for DFT ROMs that doesn't require any SD Card.
Good luck!~
This thread should probably be in the Q&A forum, but besides that, doesn't CLK store Clockwork mod on nand? Might be worth asking within that thread.
you could install roms with adb commands (MAGLDR/cLK Versions) and/or fastboot (in cLK versions).
You must unzip the rom and begin to flash/copy each partition/folder from command line.

I was thinking that, I know with fastboot you can flash .img files straight to the NAND, but I don't know if it would work, and whether you could build the system.img/boot.img easily enough yourself.

1) can you publish some tutorial for flash some ROM without CD CARD?
2) i cant set storage of photo to internal memory. This setting missing in DFT_Android. I cant make photo, because still write INSERT SD CARD and I have no setting for storage.
3) install apk files I can via HTC SYNC. Thanks...
Doesn't your HD2 have any storage? Not understood if your HD2 has NO SD card but some kind of hard wired storage in place of an SD card, or it has a faulty SD slot. ** by SD we of course mean microSD.
if it has an SD storage even if hard wired, MAGLDR has the ability to format the SD as well as mount it as USB storage.
in my earlier installs of Android NAND, I rarely took the SD card out of my HD2, because MAGLDR conveniently does it all.
- formating the SD card (FAT32 and inclusive of an EXT3 partition)
- mounting as USB storage so you can copy the CWM zip file to the SD
good luck and tell us how it goes.

Be more specific please?
How big is the SD card?
How much can your HD2/Android use?
** could the rest be used as EXT3 extension for the Android System?

Hello guys.
I have a HTC HD2 running Windows Phone 7 (on MagLdr 1.2).
I want to DualBoot Android AND WPH. Ive watched a tut on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTHRAUHZHlo
I did exactly the same and after that i took this Android DesireHD Built: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881937
It worked fine but android said, that there isnt a sd card in the device. Of course it is, cuz android boots from the sd card. When i remove my sd card, android freezes (of course). I tried to restart and i put the 512 MB data.img in the folder but there was the same problem again..
I tried it with an other card and i pushed the button "mount sd card"
and than it said "u can take out the sd card now" (or something like that)
Plz help me!
I am having the exact same problem. Have you found the problem/solution to it.
thanks.
you both update you magldr that should fix your issues.
so get newest radio, than flsh magldr 1.3
before you update make a complete backup!!
hope you both have the right partition layout on sd card.
(first partition must be fat32 second ext3 or ext4)
hope this helps.
for tut look at forums or pm me!!
Can someone describe the exact steps that are required to mount the SD card when the Android build is being run off the SD card using MAGLDR.

They are running Android from their SD card. It is not going to show a SD card being in the device because Android thinks the SD card is the device......

This will not help them at all, MAGLDR just serves as the bootloader for Android not the OS.
Allso you can not remove your SD card will booted into Android if you are using a SD card build it is running of the SD card not NAND.

So basically I cannot mount the SD card, no matter how it is formatted ?
I totally have this same problem. Neither WP7 or Droid will read the 16 GB card I'm using to run Droid. I think I'm using the DesireHD build also, maybe its that? I can probably see if changing it makes a difference.
I have the same problem. First time i installed WP7 and android, everything was working fine. Then i had to reset WP7 because it kept freezing, i followed the same steps again to dual boot with android and it booted fine but SD CARD is not mounted for some reason. I have tried 3 different android builds with same problem. Any help or tutorials?

This happened to me too with two SD cards. What I did was I run the Partition SD Card from AD Recovery. I forgot the partition layout, just find something that works for you. I was surprised that it has successfully created a partition...this erased everything so I needed to re-copy ROM files to SD card via Card Reader on my PC.
When I did it over, It finally worked. Am now running Sensation XL ROM.

Hi,
I use to use Windows Phone on my HD2 but I eventually switched back to Android. Since there was recently a release for the NODO update, I am keen to try it.
My question is if I backup my current rom with magldr, can I late (when using WP7) switch back to android simply by restoring?
Thanks!
Yes, you would need to reflash the cwm partition layout first, but then the backup can be restored.
Sam is right you can restore your Android ROM to just like it was when you made the Nandroid backup using CWM. But you need to use a seperate SD card to store the back up on or copy it to your computer cuase WP7 is going to totally reformat your SD card unless you have it partitioned correctly. Meani.g you will loose any infortion that is not on another partition on your SD card.
Ah yea that, good catch.

If I backup my current rom to the SD card I'm using now, and then use a second SD card and flash WP7 with that, I can take out the second one, plug in the first, boot into MAGLDR and safely restore Android?
Nope, the partition WP7 uses is in some sort of locked encryption format, so in other words, WP7 won't recognize the space on the sd card and fail to boot. Hence why WP7 formats the sd card in a certain way on first boot.
So in other words, use one sd card to save your nandroid backup/android, and another sd card for WP7 to use.

So in theory I can nandroid backup on my current sd card, then use another for WP7 to partition. I can plug my first sd card back in and restore from MAGLDR replacing android over WP7?
Oops lawl I misread the post above. I thought you were trying to use a sd card for WP7 to format when it boots up first then plug in your nandroid backed up sd card and use WP7 normally.
Anyways, yes you can do that. CWM is going take over WP7 anyways.

You know I actually just really thought about it , and yes you can do just what you are asking. Just flash the WP7 ROM of your choice, this should not remove CWM if you currently have it flashed to your HD2, Not running CWM from SD card by placing the two required files on it. Cause flashing WP7 will remove those two files.
So when you get ready to go back to Android you will have to put a SD card with the Backup on it in your HD2 or remove the RAID format that WP7 puts on the SD card and then reformat it with Fat 32, then put the copy on it and boot into CWM and restore with your backup and you should theoretically have Android back on your HD2. I Have not tested this, but like i said it is theoretical.
Let us know how it works out.
Looking at bazinga's avatar picture is making me wish there was an HD2 tablet.

Yup, it worked. After trying NODO I went back to MAGLDR but I had to flash AD Recovery again. Then I just restored the backup from my SD card.

I don't really know about locked and encrypted. But what I do know is WP7 formats the SD card with RAID. This is a format for hard drives, flash memory, external storage, and the such that lets a computer/device view and treat the different storage areas as one storage and can use them as one hard drive if you will. this is used in much larger scale usually.
Hey everyone,
I keep getting the same error while copying the Typhoon zip-file to my SDcard (empty, and 8GB is available).
It seems to be loading it onto the SD card, but it gets stuck (see 1st photo), then I get this error saying the card is no longer connected (which it is). I've turned off my phone several times and tried again and again, but I can't get it to work.
I hope someone can help me.
If not, how do I get back to windows 6.5 ?
Use an sd card reader. They are normally really cheap.
Otherwise format the card with sd formatter (program) and retry.
Before that you can try to copy the files via clockwork mod :
Mounts and storage and the mount usb or try to mount just sd.
Hope this helps you.

Hi Y'all
Im having the same problem trying to Install NAND Android with ClockWorkMod Recovery. At the last step,
7. Open your favorite ROM (ex. JawsMIUIrec1.0.7z) with 7-Zip.
8. Copy .data folder and ex. JawsNandRec1.1.zip to SD card root level.
I encounter exactly the same thing the OP is saying. Its not copying over. Im using a Kingston 8 GB microSDHC Class 4 Flash Memory Card SDC4 and my PC is running 7.
Any other suggestions?
jonas has given u the best solutions but there is another 1 u could try.
if u have a camera with an sd card reader,stick it in there,attach camera to pc,see if it allows u to format the sd card,then try to add the file
HOPE THIS HELPS...............FEEL FREE TO HIT THANKS
So, i know, again the sd problem, but nopt the "normal" lock problem:
The hd2 donna read any sd card in magdlr!
But from the piont of beginning:
1) original miui version installed (from german miui)
2) installed WP7 back to future, dunno run, so i changed the sd card to an 8gb one. also not work, so i want to go back to android.
so i installed a clean wp7 back2future rom and use the unlock.cab 2 unlock my sd card, worked more or less but sd cards are unlocked now
3) first flash the original wm 6.5 built from htc, everything worjks(read sd card)
4) task 29
5)magdlr
6) cwm installed
7) want to copy over a rom, but windows told me, that i have to format the card, but if i do, theres ionly one 1kb partiotion...
but the sdcard worksd always in windows mobile roms and with a reader! what can i do? all sd cards are unlocked!

this had me going for a while.
search for the ext4 recovery version for sd card.
with madldr you set the boot folder to ext4 and boot into recovery from there.
i have windows 7 in nand, and 1 sd card with 'sd android | ext4 data | windows 7' which i find easier although you need 2 cards to set it up anyway.
ok thanks
check out one of the links below, you can have WP7 in nand & Anroid NativeSD with EXT4 on one SD card.
