[Q] Problem with installing WP7 - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Ok guys this is really frustrating. I have Android ROM and I want to try WP7 ROM. But every-time I install any ROM I am either stuck on GO GO GO or afterwards I am stuck on white screen with green HTC logo in the middle. I performed task29 before installing anything. I suspect on my SD-Card( I have Kingston 4 GB Class 2), so I borrow another one-Transcend 8 GB Class 6. And again the same problem, WP7 is is stuck on GO GO GO or white screen with HTC logo. What can be the possible explanation here? Anyone?
TnX

it could be a number of things, ive found the best way is to start again. SD flash an original wm6 stock ROM, then install hspl 2.08 > radio 2.15 > magldr 1.13 > os
take you SD card and download SDformatter, format it again
try again.
note that both your cards may not work and if you search you will find all of this info

Tnx mate, but I do the procedure 4 times without success. I still suspect that the problem is with the SD-Cards. Today hopefully I will try with SanDisk 16 Gb class 6. From what I read SanDisk is most used. And if this failed, I will flash stock WinMo 6.5 and reinstall everything again.

I have the same problem. Flashing complete in 100% but i can't pass the HTC logo when it's booting.
This is not SD fault because I have another device which is running fine...
Did task29, flashed winmo6.5, radio, hspl, magldr 1.13...
One phone simply can run wp7 and another can't ?

dont do the task29
SD flash WM6.5, HSPL, radio, magldr, flash OS
oh i wouldnt go with a class 6, whilst some folk have had working ones many more havent got it working, class 2 or 4 is best, just because its a class 2 doesnt mean its slower than class 6, infact many folk, myself included believe the class 2 and 4 is quicker

Did exacly what u said.
WM6.5 --> HSPL --> radio --> magldr --> flash YukiXDA'a OS
htc logo stuck
As i said i have another hd2 which is running on wp7 for a week... ive done exacly same thing to the both of them and one is not working... Is there something else what i can do?

Hmm, so your saying thatyou have access to 2 HD2s, running/trying to run WP7 and that one of them works with the SD card but the other doesnt work with it?

Ok I forgot to replay that I did it . In my case there was no need for stock ROM. I just:
1. Did task29
2. Installed WinMo ROM (In my case Dutty's V25)
3. Install MAGLDR
4. Install Wp7 ROM...and it works

Yep. Im doing EXACLY same thing to the 2 devices. Using the same SD card. First phone is booting and working second is not.
Tried about 5 times (to both of 'em to be sure). I have enough. This just can’t be done. Don’t know why. Maybe there is something wrong with memory? IDK... but this is extremely frustrating.

Ziaren, Do you have 2 SD cards with your 2 HD2s?
Have you tried with both sd cards on your HD2 that has this trouble?
Just a thought.
Good luck

Have you tried to flash your stock ROM, then to re-flash everything? (HSPL, WinMo, MAGLDR and WP7)

Try magldr and one of my nand roms and let me know what happens. My guess is its your sdcard.

yea i thought it could be the sd card too, but i tried to boot android from a different sd card,no luck. I will read up on how to do a nand rom and hopefully figure it out.
Google "SD Card Formatter" and then use FULL format with ERASE ON.
format
thanks i downloaded a panasonic sd card formater did a full full erase with it checked to "ON" it was reformatted but it said the device does not support Flash Erase.... im gonna try it out now
DUDE U ROCK MAN THAT DID IT THANK U SP MUCH!!!!!!!

[Q] Flaky Booting (as in, almost never :P)

okai, so, heres the long and short of it. WP7 on NAND, Hspl3'd, 2.15 radio and a range of SD Cards, the one I'm using currently is a 16gb Kingston Class 4 but the problem also appears on the standard HTC card that came with the phone and a 4gb Sandisk Class 4 (This leading me to believe it isn't and SD problem).
The phone flashes all correctly and boots back into MAGLDR, i then reset MAGLDR (just in case, ya know) and go to boot WP7.
Heres where my confusion kicks in. Sometimes, it boots first time, it goes through booting fine. other times, i get 5 seconds into the DFT logo bootscreen and it crashes, re-booting the phone. And most of all, i get 1 2 3 4 5 6 GO GO GO! and it crashes and re-boots the phone *sigh*
this persists over multiple OS and MAGLDR 1.12 flashes and seems to all be dependent on time. If the phone crashes once (fails to boot) it wont boot again at all for the next 10-30 minutes, then, if sufficient time is passed, it will boot without issue. And yeah, i don't think its heat related, the phone stays fairly cool throughout the process (I've had my phone get hotter on an underclocked android build )
Any ideas? i apologise if this has been addressed elsewhere, but ive kept my ear to the ground in this forum for a few days and have done a few searches, as far as i know, this is a new and confusing issue :L thanks in advance.
Hey mate... Weird case... Did you tried to Wipe the phone to Factory settings? (I mean uninstall hspl,android magdlr e.tc???) Try it and post here with your results... Just make an installation of the Winmo 6.5 only!
Give it a shot now, just to be sure, flashing a standard Winmo rom wipes my HSPL don't it?
have you tried formatting the sd card with panasonic sd formatter...if not i think its worth a shot...make sure to set in options to full (erase on)...hope that helps

No.. you can still have the HSPL and stuff! Somewhere here i saw a topic about Uninstalling all these together!
In addition try the comment above mine and post your results!
If it's not the problem then try Mgdlr 1.11 with Android build... Most probably something went wrong with the installation!

I use the sd formatter from SDcard.org, but yeah, full erase has been a button ive pushed somewhere along the line, alas to no avail
The problem is WP7 specific, I've never really had much trouble with Android builds on Nand
Wp7 boot problems are related to your SD card then! Wp7 is known to have these problems on several SD cards... I use Chinese cards (not branded) and are working just fine... i have 8gb class 4 and 16gb class 6.. LOL!
Its what i thought at first, but seriously, 3 different brands of card all crapping out? Kingston and sandisk cards work for others on top of that, but i think now you guys have given me enough to get on with, i edit OP if i ever get it working :L thanks a bunch for the advice

I also experience that way. What I did was try to flash task 29, flash magldr 1.13, flash CWM (be carefull that each rom require different partition lay out) and flash the Nandroid roms.
Good luck

except the op wants android and winmo, so no magldr/cwm
OP - try upgrading your radio, the stock one probably isn't high enough version to run android, which requires a ..50.. radio, and (unless you have a tmous) you may have a stock ..51.. radio now.
ive formatted my sd card but its not going into android .
ive got radio 2.15.50.14 is that the right radio to have ?
edit*** i know im missing something but i just cant work out what it is that im missing
And you are sure you reflashed your HSPL? once you reflashed WinMo, it eliminated your ability to start Android. Make sure you flash to current HSPL or you won't boot. Also make sure your bootloader or Android build is running CLRCAD.exe before it starts HARET.

You don't need HSPL to boot from SD card using haret. All you need is WM and a .50 radio.

Try going into your Android folder in Windows Mobile by using File Explorer, and deleting your data.img, or moving it to a separate folder on your SD card. This will erase any data you had under Android before, but at least it should boot, the 1st boot should take a bit longer than usual, because a new data.img will be creataed. If this doesn't work, you'll have to download and install a new build.

thank you tryin it now.....
and thankyou to the rest of you guys for helping me , hope this works
edit*** nope still not loading , f**k knows why . cant think why it wont load , must be missing something,
i'll try a different rom and see if that works
what also can be a problem is that when you mobile is creating a data.img there isn't enough memory on your SD for the data.img, then it will get stuck on HTC logo

Did you do format to fat 32 with a full wipe? Our did you just do quick format? Do the full one. Or your d/l could be corrupted.

[Q] HD2 will not boot. Help needed

I got myself a HD2 the other day, and since i am a androidfan i wanted to get my HD into a droid rom.
This ended in a mobile not wanting to boot, got to the boot screen where i se the android sign and then it reboots. This goes on forever...
HSPL works (have tried different versions) so i can keep trying different roms, but all ends up rebooting the phone. Doesnt matter if i tryWindows 6.5, android or windows7 roms.
But another problem is that i dont know which Rom was my "original" rom, and i formatted the original sd card...
Hope one of you clebver guys have an answer and solution i can try out.
Here are som info that shows in the boot screen now:
R 2.15.50.14
G 15.42.50.50.11U
D 3.14.04666
How did you exactly try go get yourself 'into a Droid ROM'? From SD card or nand? What bootloader do you have? 2.08.Hspl or 2.08.0000? Just go in to Bootloader and flash a custom WinMo ROM or MAGLDR if you want to flash Android from NAND.

I have 2.08Hspl bootloader now.
Have tried with Magldr with no luck. Have tried both Sd and Nand version
Still no luck

I've tried several ROMs & each time they boot up wonderfully, whenever i encounter a problem..its usually cuz i either skipped a required step or didnt fully understand how to get that particular ROM working...So my advice 2 u is to follow the dev's instructions properly in order 2 minimize errors...feel free 2 try d build contained in my sig...With normal usage, i still squeeze out @least 30hrs+ out of my device(calls, msgs, wifi, data, sync, really low back-light, apps, games, etc)
Aaaahh!
Found the solution to my problem.
It was one of the battery contacts that was bent out.
Bent it back into place, and now the phone boots like a Dream
Let the android testing begin
I only suggested that to somebody else today and All! Haha.

If you want NAND version, you need hspl 2.08, magldr, and cwm in order to flash rom.

My HD2 just hangs on the splash screen

Whatever WP7 ROM I try, my phone just hangs on the splash screen. It used to be fine a while ago until I tried flashing langs wp7.5 ROM...
can anyone please help?!
i'm not saying it's the exact issue, but what class is your SD card? Mine also did the same except when i tried flashing back to WP7 from Android and it killed the SD card completely.

I've done it over and over. Even went out and bought a new 4gb class 4 sd card to test. Same result. This really makes no sense!!
try flashing the rom withOUT your sd in ... yet brand new or not WP just doesnt work with some cards regardless of class, brand, etc.

What rom u using? yuki one or hd20 dft one? if yuki, i also encounter this freeze screen problem but dft one, worked smooth and stable, nvr see freeze screen anymore, try this if u are using yuki rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953078
When I flashed Yuki BTTF ROM I had the same issue. Had to remove SD Card until final update. Without the SD Card, update to 7392, and then reinert the card. Hard reset phone from settings, and then update the rest of the way. By following this process, my updates worked perfectly.
