[Solved] Problem flashing Android on HD2 - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hey guys,
currently I´m trying to flash Android NAND on a HD2.
Apparently there are some problems with the bootloader.
I tried two different ways, which are explained in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060
First I tried to install MAGLDR 1.13. Here is the problem that MAGLDR 1.13 seems not to be properly installed because the phone wont boot in the MAGLDR bootloader. It just hangs at the green/white HTC bootscreen.
As second method I tried to flash cLK 1.4. Here the bootloader seems to be installed properly but it´s not possible to install the ClockworkMod Recovery. Every time I start the batch file it hangs on "waiting for device".
Since I tried some things I only can boot into the bootloader and no longer load Windows.
I´ve installed the latest radio (Radio Leo 2.15.50.14) and HSPL (3.03).
Any ideas what I can do know?

when you install magldr it wipes windows off the deivce, you are aware of that?
when you start the device with magldr you need to hold the power off button til you get the menu up then you can use the usb flasher if it is a daf installer or you need to install CWM recovery and install a rom that way
either way windows will no longer be on your device

Yeah I know this. But the problem is that the magldr bootloader is not booting. It hangs on the white HTC screen. Without any other reaction.

what version of android did you install? you need HSPL 2.08 or it will not work anways
if all you done was install magldr without install anything else it will do exactly as you have described because there is nothing for it to load up

I think you misunderstood me
Normally if magldr was installed correctly I should see a screen like this (http://www.xda-developers.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/MAGLDR-boot-menu.jpg), when I boot with hold power button+left arrow key.
But when I press this combination it does not boot to this screen. It just does nothing. And this is why I can´t proceed with any instruction, because I need a working magldr.

I'm new to all this too so bare with me.
I think you may have installed the wrong HSPL. This is from the HSPL thread.
Android / WP7 / MAGLDR don't support HSPL3.03/OSPL3.03.
You need HSPL2.08 to run Android / WP7 / MAGLDR
When you installed HSPL you chose the wrong option. Someone more knowlegable will hopefully come along and tell you how to fix it.

After destroying and downgrading of HSPL with an original HTC Win Rom I could install a new HSPL again...
Don´t ask me how I´ve done this, but it worked
So thanks to all!

hd2 stuck magldr 1.13 help!

Was trying to install wp7 on my hd2, but now im stucked on magldr version 1.13. Forgot that the volume buttons doesnt work and i cant get the phone out of there. Try to load original rom or even task 29 but nothing becuase the pc doesnt recognize it. When the phone its booting it says something like cant boot from sd android kernel fail and then the menu and i can select only the first 1 boot wph.
Is there a way to get the phone out of there, or my only hope its to repair the volume button.
thanks
If you haven't been able to flash anything then as long as you just reboot your phone you'll just go back to whatever ROM you had previously
I have the same problem, after having upgraded to 1.13. Whenever i try to install a NAND version of Android, i am stuck with the splashscreen of the build i am trying to boot into. Bear in mind that every ROM i flash is flashed without any problems. So I guess it is not the NAND memory thats broken or faulty. The only build i am capable of running, is DFT's WP7 stock build. This loads perfectly, but due to the battery drain i would VERY much like to get rid of it and use my beloved MDJs Gingerbread/CM7 2.6 build.
To avoid any trouble i thought of just flashing a Task29, and a stock WM65 ROM to 'reset' to stock, that is, installing a custom ROM from SD card, so SPL is restored to factory version. However, i am not able to enter bootloader mode on my HD2. It can only boot into Magldr and succ. WP7. It doesn't help to press vol down, and it is not broken as I can use it in WP7. It seems as though HSPL is skipped and the phone is boot directly into magldr. This should NOT happen.
Anyways, this is very much close to a bricked device for me, so i am very sad these days. Does ANYONE know a trick that would enable me to replace magldr 1.13 with the working 1.12 without the tri-colour bootscreen of spl?
i remove the battery but when the hd2 start again it boots instantly to magldr, i need another way to flash it different to the three color screen (i cant get there becuase the volume down button its broke).
i have a problem like that
If your volume keys don't work, then there is seriously, no other way. You can't get into bootloader mode without the volume keys, and the you can't flash a different rom without the volume keys, so yeah, your device is pretty much bricked....
But IF the vol. down key works, I assume that it is something with MAGLDR or HSPL, or possibly an error in RAM. Are there anything that can be flashed via magldr that checks the state of underlying HSPL?
any fix to this??? same issue following the steps and volume buttons dont work. I can select the boot wph ....wph not installed
Maybe I'm tired or too old... but I don't understand your questions
You can imagine the different "softs" as layers:
1st: HSPL (or SPL) - it's the one you enter by pressing vol-down while booting.
this one give you the ability to flah a WM ROM (original or custom), a radio or MAGLDR
So if vol-down if dead... your phone also
nb: the first splash screen is at this level, so it will be still here after flash of MAGDR, CWM, NAND, WM7...
2nd: MAGLDR - it's the one you go in by pressing "end call" while booting.
It gives the ability to flash a NAND or WM7 via DFT
So if "end call" is dead... you're not But it's anoying I think...
3rd: CWM - it's the one you go in by selecting "AD recovery" in MAGLDR
It gives you the ability to flash a "CWM NAND" or an update... It also gives the ability to backup/restore a NAND.
So please clarify your question if you need help. More important do not post different problem by saying "same here". It's just confusing. Even if you can't boot your NAND it's not always the same problem
Let's try again dudes

I installed on my hd2:
-HSPL 2.08
-Radio 2.15.50.14
-Magldr 1.13
-CMR
First of all I noticed that I dont have to hold the power button to get into the magldr menu.
I couldn't get into Boot As SD so I wanted to flash custom rom from bootloader. Unfortunately I can't do that. Even tried HR. Is there any solution to flash stock ROM
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Stuck for me too
I just flashed the latest hspl3, radio code and MAGLDR 1.13.
When I try to boot MCCM 4.5 from SD it hangs on the main Android Home Screen. When I try to boot WPH MAGLDR says that WPH is not installed.
I am still running Windows Mobile 6.5.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
hi, have u tryed with the small button under the volume down button? it works as the volume down button...
If u can go in bootloader (if ur volume down works) could be ur nand is corrupted (as mine ) so bye bye hd2... i m waiting for the htc sensation

However, none of the fixes I have seen on here have worked. I am running Windows 7 Professional.
I have tried:
Disabling Use USB in the Window Mobile Device Center
I have tried ANDR_INSTALL
I have rebooted
I have tried deleting all of the unattached USB device in the device manager.
I have tried using LeoAdvancedRUU
I have tried starting DAF first and then connecting the usb cable
I have tried connecting the USB cable first and then the starting DAF.
Help please!!! I was up until 8:30 AM trying to get this to work (I started at about 10:00 PM).
i also put the hd2 into the freezer for 10 minutes to solve heat problem and it doesn't start bootloaderi...
the nand corrupted..it start magdle but don't start android or cwm..there is nothing to do

MAGLDR Problem

hi,
MAGLDR doesn't recognize my sd card . i can't use usb mass storage , AD SD => CWM . apparently all the roms i want are released az ZIPs ...
is there a fix for that ?
Are you using magldr 1.13? If so you need to use the new CWM 1.3 partitions which now installs the partition onto NAND, so to use CWM you need to boot into the AD Recovery option from menu and not Boot AD SD. There is also no need to copy files to root of sd card.
There is a problem with magldr usb mass storage, but if you boot to CWM, select mount and storage and the usb storage you can copy perfectly.
hi
my problem is with the bootloader screen. After installing magldr 1.13 i could not start the ppc in bootloader mode. i have tried many key combinations and etc.. but it is still starting with magldr after a short white htc screen. So now i cannot load any official or custom winmo firmware. None of the android nand fw are working. Now i only can use winphone 7 with limited abilities.. Can anyone tell me the way to solve this and go back to original rom?
thanks

When you say you can not start in bootloader, bootloader is started by turning the phone off, holding in the vol down button only and turning on the phone.
The phone should not even get to the white htc screen.
If you get into the tri-colour screen you can get back to a stock rom to start again.

Yes exactly thats what i m doing. But it passes to magldr. I even have reset from the red button at the back but no way to bootloader
@ClydeB1 : so i have to install the new CWM using the USB Flasher and it'll boot from AD Recovery ? thats good news i guess ...
will it let me install ZIP roms ? also i have a 512Leo . why would i (or anyone) want to partition NAND ?!?

Yes, install the appropriate cwm partition by going to usb flasher and running daf.exe. Then the phone will reboot to magldr, select AD recovery and you can then flash zip roms or updates, backup etc etc etc.... I have a 512 device also, so no problems.
I guess one of the reasons for running recovery off NAND is that not all users could get the sd based recovery to work.

I have the same problem here. I tried to return from my NAND Android Builts to a Windows 6.5 ROM. But after Flashing, the reboot got stuck at the logo. I tried flashing over and over again, different WinRoms, reflashed MAGLDR and even tried a combination with HSPL. nothing seems to work. I dont pass the logo, cannot enter MAGLDR or load a normal build. I kinda run out of all my magic. anyone got any suggestions?

What hspl version and radio are you using? To use magldr you need 2.08.hspl and radio 2.08.50.xx or higher .50 radio
I'm not sure why it would hang on reflash to winmo, but let's try get to Android.
Hi!
I am using the SPL 2.08 and When i am installing the MAGLDR111 or MAGLDR113 it's Stop in 0%
How i can install the MAGLDR?

[Q] MAGLDR does not start, and stucks the device

Hi guys. Thanks everyone for the wonderful work you all do.
Today I wanted to try for the first time to flash some NAND stuff.
I installed cLK, then I thought it would have been better MAGLDR so i tried to install it just after cLK.
After the installation, the phone just does not show the MAGLDR boot screen. It stucks at the HTC green logo (of course i keep the power button pressed). The previous working WM rom does not boot.
The only solution i found, is to flash again a wimo rom through ruu_update, from the bootloader (i have hspl4), then I can begin again but MAGLDR will anyway not install properly.
Do you have any suggestion? Thanks.
Sounds like yet another case of not having both spl 2.08.hspl AND an android compatible radio. (2.15.50 for example)
as comes up daily, magldr WILL NOT START without both those criteria filled. It will simply hang on the bootscreen.
thanks for the info.
I had Spl 3.03, I understood that MAGLDR would require 2.08 or above. Radio, is exactely the 2.15.50. What should i do now?
wrong, magldr requires 2.08.hspl ONLY. no other will work.
from magldr thread, post 1 line 4......
You need HardSPL 2.08 before installation!

[Q] No Bootloader Menu after reboot

Hi folks,
I tried to flash my HTC HD2 for the first time. Read /watched different guides. In first 2 steps they were all the same:
- install HSPL
- instal MAGLDR
Done both, got positive responses on both.
BUT: after rebooting after installing MAGLDR I do not manage to get the bootloader screen. There´s just a white screen with green htc logo on it and nothing else happens.
Yes, I held the power button after reboot; about 1 min long. Nothing.
If I hold volume down button after reboot the stripey screen appears like after the HSPL installation. But there is also no menu.
Also tried to proceeed task29 with the HD2 Android NAND Toolkit. Got positive response there too and after this I begann from scratch. With the same results.
Does anyone have a clue what I made wrong or forgot?
Or a hint what to do now?
best regards
M.
What version hspl n magldr?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
and radio,
hspl MUST be 2.08.hspl ONLY
radio MUST be 2.xx.50.xx
Got hspl version 2.08.hspl from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
got MAGLDR version 1.13 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893618
cant remember the full radio version but I checked it before starting and it fits to requirements.
But I´m a few steps forward...
Meanwhile I flashed the newest Original HTC HD Win Mobile 6.5 ROM so phone boots up again
After that I installed HSPL version 2.08.0000 (now I know that was a failure) an tried again to install MAGLDR. But the progress bar doesn´t move - neither on PC nor on phone...
So I first will try to install again HSPL like samsamuel said and try again with MAGLDR
[EDIT]
Radio Version is now 2.15.50.14
SOLVED
Don´t know why but after dooing all step again (after falshing new HTC ROM) all ist ok and android is booting...
I think something was not in expected version on my old ROM on the phone. Never made an update before. So I recommend to do this before starting with all other

the only regular hd2 stock rom that includes a magldr compatible radio is 3.14, so if the ''old rom'' you flashed was any other version, it will have also flashed a non magldr radio, which is why it happened. (I suspect).
Sorted now,
the same problem
Hi,
I have the same problem.
Just white screen with green HTC mark.
But I'm not shure how to flesh win mobile again, because I cannot connect my HTC HD2 via USB (PC doesn't recognise the phone).
tnx
Hey MiMo,
Could you please post links and steps to help myself and anyone else looking on how to fix this?
by links I mean can I have the stock rom you used and the radios and such
Thank you.

[Q] Stuck with HSPL 3.03.0000. No MAGLDR, no OS. What now?

Hi, I attempted to install Android on my GFs HD2. It was running Windows 6.5.
HSPL 2.08 was already installed and I installed MAGLDR 1.13. In MAGLDR I was able to select menu items but pressing the call-button didn't do anything. How do I unstuck myself? Help greatly appreciated.
UPDATE: I tried to flash the RUU_signed.nbh via SD from RUU_Leo_S_HTC_GER_3.14.407.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship but it failed, I guess. Now it won't boot (says Software Update failed, please try again). SPL 3.03.0000 is now installed. Slowly getting nervous over here. What's my way out of this mess now?
You should be ok to install hspl 2.08.
If you haven't already got it, get the HD2 nand toolkit (kusbedi) it makes things a lot easier. Then have a good read here.
OK, thanks, didn't know you could install HSPL from the bootloader too.
HSPL 2.08 is now installed. Still the same problem with MAGLDR not reacting to the call button, though. I guess I'll try CLK then.
You can just as easy install magldr again if you wish using the toolkit...
Hmm, I now formatted the memory with Task 29 and reinstalled MAGLDR, still no reaction to call-button presses.
I've got two hd2 s, and on both magldr never accepts the first press of send, I have to click it again slightly (only slightly,) firmer and fractionally longer. If I try the slightly longer firmer press first, it still doesn't accept it till the second press.
My point being to make sure its really a problem before you start re flashing.
If you assure yourself its really not accepting, try reflashing 2.08.hspl again but using hspl3, (there are occasional issues with Hspl4, not usually connected to magldr, but everything's worth trying) and then reflash magldr. The nand toolkit as advised is a good way to go.
Winmo roms, radios, hspl, task29... all can be flashed from bootloader, and indeed its a better way to flash.
grmpf... HSPL 2.08 from HSPL 3 was no help.
Now with cLK in Clockwork Mod, left button doesn't work either!! Points to a mechnical problem, but GF (owner) says no. Will keep trying.

Try installing a touch recovery? That will help you solve your problem. Also download a app like Quick Boot so you can boot straight into recovery from the Android OS.

Thanks guys.
I successfully installed TWRP, the touch recovery built, and flashed NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.1 from there.
GF is going to be very happy!
