I downloaded JACHero2.3.6

I downloaded JACHero2.3.6 and it keeps saying "failed". Now my phone wont boot up. It keeps going back to the recovery utility. How do I fix this ?

Redownload the rom and reflash. Might have been a bad download, it happens.

My phone wont get past the welcome screen. It keeps restarting then it goes to "Android System Recovery Utility Build".... How do I reload the rom ?

As mentioned re download the rom.
To reflash just throw the update.zip on the root of your sd card, boot in to recovery and alt-s.
You will want to wipe first and also format your ext partition (load the console and type "rm -r /system/sd/*" without the quotes).

Redownload the rom on your pc. Then either mount your phone like the above poster said or if you have a card reader put your card in there and update like normal.

It also sounds like you don't have the new SPL installed. No Hero ROM will work without it.

True, I didn't even think about that. I guess thats why people need to write more information instead of saying "It doesn't work, what do I do?"

Thanks people. I was able to get R33 on it again. However, I am trying to get cupcake 1.5. It doesnt seem as if any of the links to it are valid.

If you want to keep your phone rooted then you will want JesusFreke's 1.51 Search google for JesusFreke's Andblog and it links to the ROM. If you want to just get a standard OTA cupcake, i would keep trying google...

Ummm...there's 100 threads that state YOU MUST FLASH NEW RADIO THEN SPL, including Jac's official thread.

Probles Falshing A New ROM

Ok, so I went to flash a new ROM on my phone, and when I go to the run the RUU, I get the screen with the 4 steps to complete, which are already completed, then hit next. Now I get "Error [240] : File Open" and below that it says "The Update Utility cannot open the requested file. Please check the update utility."
I tried downloading the Update Utility again, but it still does the same thing. Ive flashed my phone before, and Im pretty sure Im not doin anything different this time, but its not workin. Am I missing somethin?
Thanks

Check if your harddrive isn't full.
A RUU extract some files, and if your harddrive is full it can't

Nope, its not full. Far from it actually lol.

URGENT MAJOR HELP REQUIRED *PLEASE*:
I am stuck on DFT boot screen (after doing 1234-vol up_down-wp7-reset) and this is *after* (wp7 here !) all the chains b4 that are done: ie: power on, hspl, htc, magldr- for windows phone 7 on hd2. Sometimes get thru to windows phone 7. but generally reboots. Done spl back to stock and leoimg on sd back to stock and tried task28s, 29s, etc but just reboots constantly and randomly.
Any thoughts here? What is warranty process? DO they replace at all with NEW? or new BOARDS/RAM? Gone back to 1.66 spl and sent in for repairs. because - the stupid recommended Romupdateutility HTC stock rom 'upgrade' did this damage. yes, was Windows Phone 7 and activated using dev hack with marketplace & xbox/live. Also - although I activate ok and can use it on market fine once it boots good - still when both my hd7 (hd2) and Mozart are signed into XboxLive using same address at same time: (mozart is legit fully/eula-signed etc) then the hd2 seems to reset a LOT here at this point. maybe this has something to do with usual xbox-live security? ie: http://www.wpcentral.com/hack-xbox-live-windows-phone-7-get-perma-banned-microsoft ?????????? please hlp me - I am fully capable of mtty, sd-leoimg, whatever it takes- but need to know why this would be the case? same with Android roms/stock too. Anyone know about task2a on hd2? how many bad blocks I should have? partition/re-partition droid or wp7 to avoid these bad blocks? I just WISH Cotulla/DFT let you run the windows phone 7 installer in such a way that all bad bloks could be excluded totally as if the never exist... ie make hd2 clean.

note: although I have gone bak to original spl+rom in past I have (both unsuccs &succesfully) have previously done task2a and even spl-mfg install and radios/roms as DEBUG/SPL-MFG. xmoo?

[Q] cant launch WP7

Hello. Since i didnt found any solution im searching for gelp here. I flashed WP7 step by step with tutorial. Everything went well. But phone does reboot i got magldr problem. It says "123fatal hit 3" and its the end of launching. It stops at this. I tought it might be a sd card fault but i hav no other to test it

It may be that you need to re-install magldr (and probably everything else)
first try in magldr => 10. services =>1.bootsettings =>1.Boot source =>3 WPH from NAND
Good luck

Did you flash the ROM mentioned in the above post? Maybe start again and flash a Mango ROM or an updateable one
But keep trying, it is worth it.

[Q] whats the easiest way to install android

Hi, I have the hdc hd2 with spl 3.03.0000 xe, and radio 2.15.161.3.
You maybe able to tell by that that im new to this, but want to install android as i dont like windows 6.5. I've managed to install a stock windows rom with the information i've learned here. But now i need help.
I want to install froyo or gingerbread as ive used these before on other phones.
So what is the easies way to do it and wheres the best place to get the rom from.
Please try to make it as simple as possible, Thanks.

It depends, do you want NAND Android or are you happy with running SD Android? Basically, if you want SD Android it couldn't be simpler. Just go to the SD section, download a build, place the Android folder on the root of your SD card and hit CLRCAD then HARET in the file manager. If you want NAND Android it's still pretty straightforward. Follow this guide and you should be fine. If you find even this guide too complex try using the NAND Toolkit. If you can't use that, don't bother flashing NAND Android and stick with SD Android.

Have you tried using Google? <<< I'm flaming.
Why didn't you look for the Newbies' Guides that are floating everywhere? they will guide you from the moment you pay for your phone till you are welcomed with Android's welcome screen. <<<I'm trying to be nice.

Muahahahaha, I win Also, you linked an outdated guide for the DFT Stock desire build, so I double win (if that's possible)

Thanks guys after more reading and searching i think i should go the nand root.
This means i need hspl on it it first and i can only install this if i have spl 1.42.0000. Mine says spl-3.03.0000. It also says installing a stock rom will roll this back. I've installed stock win rom yesterday and it didnt touch the spl.
Can i still install hspl with this or do i need it?
Is there a list of available roms on this site?

*sigh* did you read Marvlesz's post about Google? Download HSPL4 and use it to flash HSPL 2.08, no ROM downgrade is necessary. Basically after you've done that it's as simple as flashing MAGLDR, CWM and your ROM (and trust me, all of that won't take you more than 30 minutes at the very most).

Check your device manager did u see mobile device? and is it working?
if not try to Reinstall the WMDC driver?
I used to have this problem too after i reinstall the driver the phone will be detected again.
However if u still can't connect the phone to your PC (it's driver problem, i think).
Try task 29 Change to cLK for me it fixed everything. (using HD2 toolkit is easiest way)

Sorry for being a bit dumb here but stuck again.
I've downloaded 4 roms-
danik supersonic v1.0 lite
boxmax.s3.5v8.0.magldr
boxmax.s3.5v8.5.magldr
boxmax.s3.5.v8.5.haret.sd
unzipping the first 3 provide no DAF.exe or install.exe, so stuck there.
unzipped the last and copied to sd card and the phone just stalls on the htc quietly brilliant screen.
What can i try next?

Which guide did you follow? The one I posted or the one which Marvlesz posted? Use the one I posted because the one he posted is outdated. You install CWM then flash the ROM as a zip file. I really have no clue how somebody can find it so difficult to follow simple instructions: DOWNLOAD A NAND ROM, NOT AN SD ROM. You've said that you want a NAND ROM and then you try to flash an SD build? At least have some common sense, please. Unless you have a problem which cannot be solved by reading in the future I refuse to give any more help, because it appears to be hopeless

thanks again i've learned alot more tonight, got my first flash done just waiting for it to load. Last question before i leave you alone Is there a way to tell the difference between which mods are CWM and which wont work.

Basically all ROMs use CWM, other than the DFT Stock Desire ROM. For everything else, just download the MAGLDR version of the ROM if there is one (many ROMs automate MAGLDR/cLK), change your system partition to the required size and flash the ROM.

hi tried downloading 6 roms now
DFT_LEO_NAND_Android
BoxmaX.S3.5.v.8.5.Magldr
For.user.Nand.v8.x
BoxmaX.S3.5.v.8.5.Haret.SD
BoxmaX.S3.5.v.8.0.Magldr
DFT_LEO_MAGLDR113_DAF
Android_2.3.5_Danik_Supersonic_v.1.0_Lite
Put all of them on the memory card and it only recogognises the Danik one when i go to choose zip from sd card.
When i try to load that it goes through ok till i reboot then it freezes at the HTC screen.

Follow this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16528026&postcount=7 شبر بـ شبر and you should have Android by the end of its steps.
(btw, post reported)

I've said thanks before for his help. Ive asked for the difference between mods and how to differenciate them, i cant work out out why only 1 out of 6 is recognised. And i've downloaded the magdlr versions as suggested.
Then he calls me f*cking stupid. Think i have every right to be p*ssed off.

What do you mean by "Difference between mods" ? All mods come in a .zip package that is flashed in CWM.
When you download something (any mod, rom, kernel or anything) off the NAND section (this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=928 ) it is going to be a flashable CWM. (Unless noted)
But when you download something off the SD section ( this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=735) it is going to be ... well ... to be put on the sd without flashing.
Is this what you are asking for ?

Sorry, but I have every right to call you stupid too. I even posted DOWNLOAD A NAND ROM, and you go on and download ROMs from the SD section? It's frankly pathetic if you can't do that little reading, and if I were you I wouldn't bother flashing anything in the future. You're lucky you have a pretty much unbrickable device, because if you didn't I'm sure you would be sitting right there with a useless piece of hardware right now.

Thanks Marvlesz, thats got me sorted, the problem was when he said just download the "MAGLDR version", i thought anything with that in the name was the correct one. I'm not here to get into a slanging game so i'll just leave it that.
Thanks again.

[HELP] Newbie bricks new device

Hey Guys
So yesterday i sold my SGS and bought a used HTC HD2
the HTC had an android system installed, wanting to start fresh i searched up a guide to revert to stock wp 6.5.
Found this
ww w .jayceooi. co m/2011/08 /15/how-to-r estore-stock-r om-on-htc-hd2- video/
Following each step i put the leoimg.nbh on my sd and started the update process through boot loader.
after a few minutes the process stopped and my htc failed to boot ever since
evry time i open my phone i get
"software update fail"
next screen "0000028002" "not allow"
and goes to boot loader.
I really have no idea what to do right now, could any1 please give some good advice and tell me i haven't screwed up too bad?
Thank you!
sorry for my noobishness
