Then clean it!
If you have a virus it means you haven't had adequate protection and are probably one of these people who simply install something crap like AVG or something which is as much use as a chocolate fire-guard.
Get yourself something like ESET Smart Security and then a secondary malware scanner like Malwarebytes.
Use a PC that is clean. Borrow someone's then when done remove the files if they dont want them on their PC's. Dont tell them that they will never be gone really. LOL
I can't fix my pc as it won't let do anything on it.
Is it possible to put a Rom on a phone without using a pc?
Don't unrar build, leave it in rar. And cwm must be 143/5 for boyppc build. I change builds over xda app because I m to lazy to power on my pc. Use cwm 150
Is their a thread to tell you how to install android without using pc.?
Been tryin to fix the comp but having no luck.
And would like to try a different Rom on my phone

You need to flash a new recovery almost every time you flash a new ROM. there are 3 different size allocations for different size of roms. I had this same problem so I flashed a new recovery, then ROM, then radio and it worked. you must have a PC for this.

I am Soooo Sick of re-installing Nand Roms ..
Try this .. nope it sucks .. try this .. nope that sucks ..
Flash back and reinstall everything! ( Hits Head On Desk~! )
So I am Asking for your help!
There Needs to be a way to backup the entire nand rom!
( Not Just The Programs - And Data )
So you can try different roms .. and go-back to one that kinda works! lol
( have tried sooo many that I wanna kill myself! - No I am No Kidding! )
I can not tell you how many times I have got a rom working 98% and
then install something .. or change just ONE setting ..
And BOOOOM .. It Doesnt work right ever again!

There has to be an EASY WAY TO BACKUP!
And Yes I Have Tried .. My Backup and Titanium Backup They SUCK!
They Do Not Work Well .. And Do Not Backup All Settings And Files!
( Yes I know They Say They Do .. No They Don't )
+ You Cant use them on different roms .. Screws Things Up .. I Know I Have Tried!
We Need something very simple ..
Just like how DFT Team made it with MAGLDR 1.11
SIMPLE - Easy - Works Every Freaking Time!!
Something that makes (1) Img file that gets copied to the SD Card!
No Partions Ect. Crap .. Then you could just Flash it back
I am Looking for a Complete NAND Memory Backup Program more like ..
Acronis or Ghost That Does an Image of the complete Nand Memory.
Something Universal .. would not matter if you use NAND or ZIP Or > Whatever comes next! to install Android
I figure .. If we can backup using "clockwork" maybe it could not be that hard
to make a program .. that will Image the Nand from Sec. 0 - 99999.
I am trying to express my feelings and MANY others I have seen in other threads.
That we need a SIMPLE.. way to backup the ENTIRE NAND And Do A Restore.
Maybe a VERY Striped Down Ver Of Clockwork Of Some Type ..
And I Would Hit The DONATE Button ..
So Freaking Fast It Would Make Your Head Spin!
And I Am Sure MANY Others Would to!
I Am Hoping A DEV Or Someone WAY Smarter then All Of Us Will Make
A Program That Will Do this .. Thats What This Thread Is About ..
HELP! PLEASE HELP! OMG PLEASE ..
Before I Kill Myself! The Wife And Kids A Depending on you!
I don't see the difficulty of installing CWM, it's descripted nicely:
For new user;
1. download one of the partition files, if you don't know which one you need, use the 250M one or check with rom developer.
2. Extract downloaded zip to a folder of your choice
3. Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz and zImage) to the root of your sd card
4. boot into magldr and select USB Flasher option while phone is connected to PC
5. Run DAF.exe included in the zip and follow onscreen instructions.
6. After complete, again boot into magldr and select "Boot AD SD" option
7. ClockworkMod recovery should load, you can flash a rom from here.

Inside CWM, do a Nandroid backup and you're good.
Oh and Titanium backup works very well, you probably just don't know how to use it properly. Also, not all settings can be easily recovered among different ROMs, because, you know, the ROMs are different.
I haven't got time to follow every single [Tutorial] thread in here,
so don't know if there is a solution to back-up everything into 1 file (similar to *.ghost back-up file in Window).
Thus, +1 with the demand of WarLockW above

Right .. you can not .. use the settings .. Not thats the point of this ..
The Point is we need a easy way to backup CURRENT ROM .. and restore it.
Without having to do 1000 things that may or may not work.

We Need a SIMPLE Way to back up these dam roms ..
That works 99-100% of the time .. and dont have to worry is this rom compatible with this partion ect.
MAGLDR 1.11 works 100% and is easy!
Thats all I am Saying .. SIMPLE Being the key word~!
Imagine a backup inside of MAGLDR. That would be great. I want to try different ROM's but like you, find CWM too confusing. Even if I do back up a ROM using CWM where does it save? And how do I restore it if the ROM I flashed isn't to my liking? Does the whole ROM be in the file or just your data, apps, settings etc?

put the files on sdcard and choose boot AD sd (in MAGLDR),done
seriously. no need to invent the wheel a second time because it is too difficult to use (it isn't)

I really don't like this arrogant tone you're using. It's obviously you who doesn't know how you gotta take care of all this stuff, so a little more respect towards others trying to help you won't harm.
Anyway, here it goes.

Yeah, I don't really see any tool backing up a future or old ROM, cause you know, that's not possible. Nandroid is really just 1 thing, and it always works.
1. download one of the partition files, if you don't know which one you need, use the 250M one or check with rom developer.
( Were does that go ? And Why Do you need it ? - What One Do I Need ? - Again Hmmm .. )

Where that goes is explained in step 3. Patience, young padawan. Which one you need is pointed out too: 250M, unless your rom dev told you to do otherwise. Having problems reading?
Why you need it? Because it's a necessary file, obviously. If you wouldn't need it, you wouldn't have to download it. I don't think you're after some technical in-depth analysis either, so just do as you're told. Easy, right?
2. Extract downloaded zip to a folder of your choice
3. Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz and zImage) to the root of your sd card
4. boot into magldr and select USB Flasher option while phone is connected to PC

Surprisingly, DAF.exe is in the zip file you just downloaded. Why do you need to do it? You're installing something here ffs, do you expect to magically install CWM without doing anything?
Yes it does, that's also mentioned in the thread.
6. After complete, again boot into magldr and select "Boot AD SD" option
7. ClockworkMod recovery should load, you can flash a rom from here.
( Have you Looked at the Menu's ? ) Hmmm .. Ok then ..
Click to expand...

Which menu's? Boot AD SD is indeed in the Magldr menu, flashing a zip is indeed in the CWM menu's. Yes, it's in a submenu.
Ok .. Or Run a program that has two Options ?
Backup .. Restore ..
Hmmm .. Wonder whats easier ?
Click to expand...

Yeah, that would indeed be easier. So quit all the whining and use CWM, seriously.
can any one help?

I just sold my iphone 4 to try out the android system.
I am using the hd2 and want to have it rooted. preferably on 2.3.4
I have 2 macbooks and no pc's..
I've been reading around a LOT on google and have read around on this site but can't seem to find anything about mac...
Can i even do this with a mac?
I currently have a 2 gb sd card (i am going to get a larger one) that came with the phone i bought off craigslist.
I really need help as windows mobile is awful..
If I can be helped I can help out people in the future with their phones..
I know all about jailbreak, custom ios, unlocking, etc, even ios 5 beta and all but android is a TOTALLY different WORLD.
I need help please, the terminology and names of things are confusing me too...
I don't know what ROM is..
any help is appreciated!
-sorry if I missed a sticky somewhere or if this thread needs to be redirected.
It should work on a Mac, but I don't have one, so I could be wrong.
Essentially, what you need to do to get android on your phone is:
1. Flash HSPL
2. Flash a radio
3. Flash MAGLDR
4. Flash CWM
5. Install your preffered ROM
You can get HSPL here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966228
Radio here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
MAGLDR here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893618
And CWM here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898913
There is a good basic tutorial here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021837
ROM stands for Read Only Memory, but in this case is used to refer to an android build that is installed on the phone.
MAGLDR and cLK are bootloaders, they load android.
CWM stands for ClockWorkMod Recovery, and it lets you back up and restore your phone, as well as lots of other nifty features.
Don't worry, I was new at this once (still am), it's really easy; and if you can't manage, that's what the forums are for.
Good luck!
Not that simple unfortunately. You won't have the drivers as far as I know they don't exist, you will need to run Windows as a virtual machine but I think you will lose the connection during the process..... could be fatal
Erm....... take a look at boot camp you need to create a bootcamp partition and install Windows in it, and then you can dualboot Windows and MAC OS
It would be easier to borrow a friends pc to hspl it and magldr and cwm
Once you have clockwork mod (cwm). You have the ability to install new roms directly from your SD card in the phone without it being connected to anything.
I'm sure there must be users in the hd2 section that have done it all via a MAC but I'm not one of them sorry
Edit/ if you know your way round ios you'll pick it up pretty easy the post above pretty much says it all

If you have a windows installer disk, use boot camp to dual boot, and then do all the stuff you need to do from the pinned tutorials.
was able to just paste stuff on an sd card from an old android 2.2 i had lying around my desktop. it works but won't let me connect to google server for my contacts..
I'm getting that I'm going to have to use a virtual machine though...
ehh,
that info about what everything is definitely is great though.. I will keep looking into this as I'm using a dated "firmware"
Does anyone want help me or tell me how can i install on My HTC HD2 Leo Android system.
How can i start to install Android on HD2.
Thank you!
Read the millions of guides on how to do this. Also, for anyone to help you you would need to specify what exactly you want to do. Don't be lazy, just use the search button and if you still don't understand, then ask.
Here is a tutorial
Hope i get a thanks for giving you the link lol
Yes , you will get a "thank's" from me
But what i want to do are:
Installing Android on HTC from usb , not from any other way(memorycard etc).
can i , on easy way! , and without any risk?!
Phone are unlocked , and its not from any opeator.
Thank you

Is this because you don't have an SD card? I don't see any point in attempting to run NAND Android without an SD card to be honest.
If this is the case I would advise you to buy one. Without one you will have barely any space for apps and stuff, and you may as well stick to windows if you aren't going to use any apps on android.
Nigeldg , i have one 8GB on the phone!
i'm reading some experience from members here , and i'm see some bugs reporting from members , for that then i'm afraid if i get any error during install OS android on Leo HD2.
Sure , i'm asking here before trying to work on HD2.
Anyway thank's for reply.
Don't be scared...
When you will begin installing android for the HD2 you will first install a bootloader-program (MAGLDR) that manages everyting for your phone. After that you will install the actual rom from your sd-card with a program inside your bootloader-program (Clockworkmod). If this failes in any way you still have the bootloader-program installed which you can use to try install a different rom.
In case everyting fails you can always start your phone in the real bootloader (vol-down + power on) and install the original windows mobile 6.5 rom with USB to go back to the original situation. (keep in mind you still have a hacked HSPL then)
The reason why you'd want to install roms from your sd is that all the best roms right now are only available in zip-packages which need to be installed from your sd. Just follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948 (or take a look at the video)
Anyone tried to made an RUU bassed rom installer for hd2 using an android.img? I know it is hard for example for it I need to have installed hspl + radio compatible for that rom. So question is:
if is possible to pack to nbh:
- magldr part
- misc part
- recovery part
- boot part
- system part
- cache part
- userdata part (maybe is hard becouse use all space, and maybe ruu will be ~500M?)
Anyone have experience?
I know you can flash clk without a computer by changing the name to leoimg.nbh .. you put it on the root of the SD card and hold volume down + end.
Isn't the problem with flashing a rom like this the boot scripts?
Sent from my HD2 using xda premium
Ok thanks, I know that allready but not tried to create full pack for hd2 including magldr and android part. I think magldr is allso instalable trought LEOIMG.nbh?
Idk probably. I think its possible that your onto something. I'm not a developer but seems like you could back up your entire system to a nbh file maybe and flash it .. that's the way you return to stock and uninstall hspl.. if windows can boot like that theirs a good chance android can to.
Maybe its to much effort?
I do think their is a bigger chance of bricking your device using this method.

I am running on MIUI Android 2.3.9 and it is a mess, it kept popping up error messages "Google framework" and i dont have any google services, such as Play Store, Gmail, and i cant receive SMS, and my bluetooth also not functioning, and cannot delete anything from the SD card from the phone, i have to take out the SD card and plug it in into a computer just to delete music,video and pictures.
Was hoping to change for a new OS, but the problem is my usb port is also not functioning. I even have to charge my battery using a third party charger.
Is there anyway i could change my OS with using the usb port. Can i use the SD card instead to do all the works.
And if can, what OS should i get and how.
Dear good Sir, PLEASE HELP, im a complete NOOB. I know nothing about phones and how to mod it. The one who helped my change my phone from Windows to Android is a phone shop, that now doesnt do it anymore.
Search for clk 1.5 This can be installed from the sdcard and will also Install a version of recovery.From the clk menu you can partition your nand to the required size for your chosen ROM. Read carefully and you will be fine.

If you mean change ROM, then you can do what Shanman posted. If you mean actually change OS from android to Windows Mobile 6.5 (a stock ROM), you'll have to flash a LEOIMG.nbh in the boot loader (Google how to do this). If you want to flash Windows Phone then I'm afraid I don't think there's any way to do that.
