[Q] nand flash help - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Right just flashed boyppc gingerbread rom v30 but i'm getting loops in the android system after it being on for a while anyways others seem to have this problem also.
What i want to do now is just use v29 of the rom which i'm pretty sure will work but i'm not sure what to do in terms of flashing now that i have v30 on.
I followed the instructions for v30 which first made a 151 recovery then a installed rom. The v29 rom has a 154 recovery. What do i do now? just run the DAF.exe that came with the v29 or do i need to do other things to make v29 work?
this recovery thing is so confusing.

Hi,
First thing to do is run the 154 recovery.
Then ad recovery>wipe data,cache partition,dalvik(advanced)
Then go to install zip from sd card
Choose zip from sd card (which you should have placed on the root of your sd card,using a card reader)
After installation,reboot.
Give it time.
Some ROMS take 15-20 minutes to install.

right i see
does this process also wipe my ext4 partition i have on my sd card or do i have to do this seperately?

Hi,
Everything I have shown you is what you need to clean the phone and set it up for a new ROM,including wiping your EXT.

You don't have to wipe your ext partition, just leave it alone and you should have all your apps on your new rom that you had before. If you really want to wipe it, get Root Explorer (paid app) or ES File Explorer, and navigate to /mnt/sd-ext and delete the contents. But it really isn't necessary.

Hi,
Are you setting the correct CWM partition for the ROM and your phone?
am not sure i understand, if the same rom's older version was working properly why do i need to change the CWM partition for the next version
and also can u link me to the thread which can show me how to change the partition of the CWM recovery
thanks

Hi,
Reading through the [OP] of your ROM,it appears that you don't need to change your partition,but having tried various other ROMS,it's best to start fresh.
Before starting anything,BACKUP YOUR DATA.
Download THIS TOOL (Don't forget to thank him for his work)
Open the toolkit.
Choose magldr repartition,choose 150MB and cache 5MB.Press repartition.(via number 5 usb flasher)
Then go to ad recovery and wipe data,cache partition,and dalvik(advanced).
Then go to install zip from sd card
Choose zip from sd card (which you should have placed on the root of your sd card,using a card reader)
After installation,reboot.
Give it time.
Some ROMS take 15-20 minutes to install.

Hi,
More information is needed.
Please list everything you have done.
well i downloaded the hd2 kit posted and ginger breads latest nand rom also core droid the latest. Extracted the roms to their own folders. installed magldr, partitioned phone, booted to magldr, selected usb loader, then went to folder of extracted roms and nothing, no naf, no install only folders, boot etc...
i even followed your instructions to the t, but the roms that i download do not have raf or install files in them.

Hi,
You are NOT supposed to extract the(downloaded) zip folder which contain the ROM.
Leave it intact,and put it on the root of your sd card,using a card reader.
Once you have partitioned the phone,according to the [OP],
Go to ad recovery and wipe data,cache partition,and dalvik(advanced).
Then go to install zip from sd card
Choose zip from sd card (which you should have placed on the root of your sd card,using a card reader)
After installation,reboot.
Give it time.
Some ROMS take 15-20 minutes to install.
i copied the zip file to the sd card root, installed and partitioned at 300mb, when i enter the ad recovery option it states: no boot services, what now?, sorry but im new to this
well i mamanged to get past everything but when the phone is booting it just shows the spash screen and restarts over and over
besides killing the spelling, i managed to do everything, but the phone loops after splash screen, 100% battery strength, any ideas

[Q] sense 3.5 roms stuck at boot screen

hi guys i have used the Recommands partition for the roms 1GB ext4 partition on my sdcard and tried 2GB, flashed WIPE IT and wiped dalvik also tried task29 and started from scratch, any help would be much appreciated really want to try sense 3.5
thanks
Hi, a possible cause of problem - check your zip file (ROM), copy it to PC and try to unpack, may be it's broken. Sometimes you don't have error message when flashing, but when check on PC it shows errors.
thanks mate i will give that a try
i just extract the 2 roms i have been trying to get to work they seems ok
have you got the correct partition size for the rom ?
Which Sense ROM are you using, anyways?
Try a ext 3 partition on your sdcard then run clean install
thanks guys im sure that i have the correct partition size used HD2 tools and i have been trying to run SENSATION XL ROM EU Clk V 1.0, TBD_Runnymede_sensation_xl and not sure if i have a ext 3 partition i used cLk to partition the sd card thanks again

Have a look at this it enables you to see your partition and convert or revert, might be of some interest to you..... Good Luck.

yep... just install via cmw and it will reboot go into ad recovery and you'll see some new options.
Note:Once you reboot it will be gone, if you want it back repeat install.
Nice and handy - Check it out..
Edit: I'm using 4EXTRecovery v2.1.3 RC2 - No problems.
i have had a go at 4EXTRecovery created ext3 and tried ext4 1gb partitions
and copied the rom over through 4EXTRecovery but the rom always hangs at wipe sd-ext
same problem
good morning everbody,
i have same problem - for days i am trying to flash a newer rom and after installing my phone is always keeping to show the bootup logo of each rom i flashed.
i use the magloader 1.13, the recovery 3.0.0.5 and the radio 15.
i am able to install the stock rom of winmo 6.5 from htc (vodafone) an everthing is fine. but going back to a custom android rom is not working anymore.
even if i try to go the "right" way, means:
having the winmo rom --> flashing radio --> flashing magloader --> flashing recovery --> wiping data/reset, wiping cache, wiping that dia*** --> putting rom.zip on the sd card via pc --> installing the zip via recovery. that all works until the phone has to boot. i tried over 8 different roms.
befor i startet to update, i hab an coredroid rom v1.3 and it was booting.
perhaps anybody knows whats my problem with this nd lets me now what i have too look for?
great thanx, cause until now i can only go back to my stock winmo rom and thats boring to me... :-(

I'd try this: Back up sd if required.
1/ Remove sd from ph and place in a card reader on pc use "SDFormatter" change options format type to Full (Erase) this will erase the Ext Partition & format the card. Put the card back in the ph.
2/ Volume Down + Power Tri color connect usb. Using "HD2 Toolkit" do Task29 this will wipe the ph.
3/ Tri color Using "HD2 Toolkit" install Magldr (don't know about cLK)
4/ Boot ph go into Magldr navigate To "usb flasher" Using "HD2 Toolkit" select "Magldr repartition" Make sure that you are using the recommended partition size for your rom! Flash partition as directed. Ph will reboot go into "ad recovery" "advanced - partition sd card" select 1024m - 0M this will create 3EXT partition. (Some roms are not compatible with 4Ext) Reboot into "Recovery" select "mount sd" move your "Rom.zip" to sd. Close "mount sd" and select "Install zip from sd - Choose zip from sd" select the zip and install and reboot! .....
thanks everyone for your help after a week digging it was my sd card put a new one in and now running sense 3.5 . thanks again
@ a3r0n1 :
thansk for your advise. it took me some days cause i had no time but after i did exactly what you wrote, my newest coredroid rom is running.
Many Thanks !!!!

[Q] Lost in ROM flash (NexusHD2 Jelly Bean 1.2)

Hi guys, and before anything else, I'm so sorry. I've broken all the rules of making a backup and NOT trying to flash a phone after midnight. It won't happen again. I'm praying that this is second nature to you guys now though and you can save my backside .
I'm attempting to flash tytung's amazing-sounding Jelly Bean ROM for my HD2 512MB. I've tried to do everything I've read, but as a bit of a ROM noob paging through some fairly techy threads I'm sure I'm missing a step or three. I've previously flashed a tytung ICS CM9 ROM, so I've done all the rooting stuff before. Here's what I've done this time:
Back up important data (though not the actual ROM).
Format 16GB SD card (FAT32).
Partition SD card into 1GB Ext4 and 15GB FAT32, both primary.
Copy ROM zip and kokotas' initrd_patcher_v2 zip onto FAT32 partition.
I was also following this video a bit, so I added 4EXTRecovery as well.
As per video above, ran Task 29 to clean things up (probably unwarranted)
Boot into Magldr 1.13, set 4EXTRecovery as the SD boot dir.
Boot to SD, into 4EXTRecovery.
Install ROM from zip, choosing NAND + Ext option.
Complete, reboot into Magldr.
Be unsure about boot settings... set to Securecrt_JB_kernel maybe?
Boot from SD card into reboot loop.
Boot from NAND, receive "no boot sources".
Give up, surrender for assistance.
I'm hoping I have a guardian xdangel out there who can answer a few simple questions for me. I'm very happy to provide more information that you probably need, but I need some rest for now.
Ultimately, do I boot from NAND or SD (in Magldr)?
If NAND, why does "Boot AD NAND" currently come up saying "no boot sources"?​If SD, to what do I set the AD SD Dir in Magldr? What loader am I missing to boot into Android?​
The 4EXTRecovery log says something about cache partition not found; does this mean I've messed something up in the partitioning?
I thought I'd try setting the SD dir to "Securecrt_JB_kernel.20120924_22_34_with_initrd_for_NAND_DataOnEXT", since it sounded promising (cant remember where I found it), but it just gets me into a reboot loop. Is this totally the wrong thing to be using?
Could the reboot loop be something to do with system partition sizes? I tried reinstalling the ROM following a repartition to 400MB main and 45MB cache, and it didn't magically fix everything (still booting from that Securecrt kernel).
I remember flashing a ruu_signed.nbh file last time, but not really know what for. Do I need to do something like that here?
UPDATE: HAHAHA oh man I think it's working. I think the main issue was not repartitioning the system after naively running Task 29. Even though the ROM installer appeared to fail the second time, somehow booting from NAND has the little CyanogenMod spinny logo. Yep, there it goes! Quite slow, but functional. If anyone would still like to comment, I'd love to hear from you, and perhaps reinstall a little more effectively.
If you're feeling really generous, a list of tools needed to get through the installation would be fantastic so I don't use 'too much'. I'm sure there's more to it than just the ROM and kokatos' thing, but the development thread assumes some non-trivial familiarity with the whole process.
So again, please forgive me, but I could sure use some help :angel:.
You missed the step where you create the partitions on the nand.
Once magldr is flashed, youwould normally then installinstall cwm, duringwhichthe nand gets partitioned, butyou skippedthat and went for sd based recovery. So,get nand toolkit, phone into magldr, USB flasher, in nand toolkit select whatever size your rom needs, can lower cache from 45 down toto 5, click magldr repartition, thenwhen done you can re enter 4ext recovery bychoosing ad sd( folder to 4ext), or boot to normal cwm using option 8,,, either way you flash the rom and reboot.
There's not much point using sd 4ext recovery to just flash a nand rom,, only if you wanna run nativesd.
EDIT - heh, didn't see your update, stopped reading when i saw the missed step, glad you found it, and it'll help you remember the whole process better in future too, winner.

[Q] CM9 & CM10 Boot Failures

Hey guys, really struggling trying to get this working and I'm not sure why. I've been flashing roms to my HTC HD2 (1024 LEO - TMo USA) for a few years now without any issues. For some reason I can not get either of these CM builds to boot properly at all.
- [ROM][720p] NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.8 [NativeSD]
Boots to the grey-ish android text splash logo and cycles through the animation for 1h+. No signs of continued activity.
- [ROM][720p] NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 V1.3a [NativeSD]
Boots to green HTC splash text for 10 seconds then phone completely turns off and reboots repeatedly. Left going for 30 min, no change.​
Both installers use the AROMA installer platform. Maybe I'm missing something here? It's been a while since I've tried anything new like the AROMA stuff. I just can't seem to get these to function properly. If there's anything at all I can try to do I would really appreciate the assistance.
I'd like to give 4ext a try, but I'm not sure how I can do that with replacing Clockwork in the process.
Here's my specs:
Environment:
-HTC HD2 (1024 LEO - TMo USA)
-16Gb SD HC Card [512MB Paritioned EXT4 / 32MB SWAP] (Attempted with standard 2Gb SD as well with same setup, same results.)
-HSPL 2.08
-MAGLDR 1.13
-CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7
Things to Note:
-Wipe data/factory reset, Wipe cache partition, Wipe Dalvik Cache, Fix Permissions all run before installations.
-Installations for both ROMS attempted with all 3 installation types (NAND, NAND with DataOnEXT, NativeSD). Exact same resulting errors as listed above, regardless of installation method chosen.
-ROM's zips installed via CWM Recovery's 'Install from SD Card' utility.
-SD Card formated after failed install attempts.
-MD5 verified. No visible file corruptions.

This seems quite odd, I assume you've tested other ROMs which boot perfectly? It's possible that your SD simply isn't compatible with MAGLDR (mine isn't) so NativeSD doesn't work. As for NAND/Data on EXT do you correctly repartition in CWM as per the OP of the ROM threads before flashing?

All other ROMs I installed worked fine. SD card has worked fine as well for other builds. After some research I found that doing an SD format/partition via CWM Recovery defaults to EXT3 with no options for EXT4 apparently.
I was able to fix the issue late last night however. I flashed 4ext recovery via CWM and used that to convert the SD card's EXT3 system partition into EXT4. Ran the CM10 install and everything came up perfectly. I still think that's strange though considering I chose a pure NAND install.

Oh darn it! I came a little too late to help you. When I first opened this thread, I told myself "damn, too much letters and words! will look at it later." when the issue is actually easily fixed. Sorry!
I was on NAND (cLK), but then I wanted to try nativesd. so I flashed about 3 nativesd roms, but non of them worked. I switched from cwm to 4EXT recovery and voilà, everything worked!
I had almost exactly the same set up, except the recovery. It is indeed weird why cwm doesn't work whereas 4ext does.

No problem, I appreciate at least knowing I wasn't the only one to have issues with it! Maybe you can still help me out though.
The only way I am able to boot into 4EXT recovery is by installing a special zip file with CWM each boot; it would load a 1-time instance of 4EXT recovery. Is there some way to flat-out replace CWM with 4EXT? Until CWM has EXT4 formatting capabilities, I'm not seeing the advantage of it with these new ROMs being so dependent on it. Or maybe it's because of the AROMA installers, which I definitely see as being the new preferred standard for ROM installation packages.
