I downloaded a gingerbread rom, and now I would like to know how do I boot the rom? Like when I open up the rom folder there is no DAF or any .exe inside.
I'm not understanding how the rom is loaded from the daf.exe in magldr.
you have given so little information. do you have mgldr,is your hd2 eu or tmous, which rom do you want to flash, have you made cwr partition,do you have sd-ext partition etc...
Its tmobile hd2, & ive never did a partition. & the rom is NexusHD2-Gingerbread and i had magldr but since I couldnt figure out how to flash so I went back to wm
The NexusHD2 Gingerbread thread has a complete tutorial in it...it's not that hard.
I guess... do I have to partition my sd? I just dont get where im suppose to put the rom files before starting daf.exe
It's pretty easy man. You don't have to partition your SD card since you have a TMOUS HD2. If possible, I would recommend you format the SD card before you copy over the NexusHD zip file to it just to avoid any hiccups along the way. DON'T extract the zip. Leave it intact and copy it to the card. You can put your stuff back on the card once you're up and running. Ok, here are the instructions on how to flash NexusHD2:
Download the file MAGLDR_CWM_Recovery_v3.2.0.0_for_NexusHD2_135M.zip (5.0 MB) This is to partition the NAND on the PHONE and extract it to your computer.
Enter MAGLDR 1.13 by holding power key while booting the phone, and then select "USB Flasher" via "VolUp" and "VolDown". Confirm key is the green "Call" button.
I think you may need either Activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center just so it installs the correct drivers for the phone. You don't actually use it. It just installs the drivers for the phone. When you select USB Flasher on the phone you should see Wait USB...USB At the computer, run DAF.exe to flash ClockworkMod Recovery 3.2.0.0. You should see some text scroll by on the phone. Then it will reboot. Hold down the power button again to get back into Magldr. Go down to AD Recovery and select it with the call button. Your phone will now boot into Recovery mode. Go down to 'install zip from sdcard' and select it with the call button again. Then go to 'choose zip from sdcard'. Select it. Then select the NexusHD2 zip file you copied earlier. Let it do it's thing. It will tell you when it's complete. Use the arrow key to back up to the Recovery menu that says 'reboot system now' and select it. Let it reboot and enjoy.
If this works, I love you. & Im guessing since i flashed back to wm, I will have to install magldr and cwr again
Yep, you will have to flash Magldr and CWM again if you put WM back on it.
Thank you everybody for helping me out.

I cant get out of MAGLDR at all and all i want is to flash back to a stock rom or any rom for that matter so i can use my phone again. Im sorry for creating a new thread because i know alot of people are having similar problems but i couldnt find an answer.
thanks adam
You need to flash ClockworkMod Recovery with the appropriate size system partition for the nand rom you intend to install. Flash the recovery from your pc with MAGLDR in usb flasher mode. Then in MAGLDR choose AD Recovery, and in recovery, choose 'install zip from sd', then pick 'choose zip from sd card' and choose the zip that is the rom you wish to install. Dont unzip it, Clockwork Recovery installs from .zip files.

im not sure what u meen by partition size how do i select that and do u know of a way i could connect to active sync so i can just flash stock rom. in MAGLDR i havnt found a way to connect to active sync. any suggestions on how to go back to stock? thanks for helping.
Power your phone on while holding the vol down button. Your screen will have 4 colored bars. You can flash a stock rom from there. Your phone won't connect to ActiveSync or Windows Device Center while in this mode, but the stock windows rom will flash.

i finally got it to work i had to flash the stock radio to get it to flash the stock rom for some reason thanks for helping me
No problem, glad your phone isn't wrecked. If you still want to use Android, but don't want to mess with flashing it to your phone's internal memory, you can always use sd builds. Then you still have WinMo, and you can even have multiple different Android builds on your sd card, in different folders, there are programs for Windows Mobile that will even launch Android for you and let you choose which build to launch. It's alot simpler than flashing nand roms, just drag n drop a folder onto your sd card and bot into WM, use File Explorer to navigate into the folder, tap CLRCAD and haret.exe , and Android launches.
Hey guys long story short, i have tried to install android on my htc hd2 after not likind windows mobile at all.

Hi,
Seems like you were doing everything correctly.
According to [OP]:
2.Flash Recovery
- Goto MAGLDR113 menu
- Choose USB Flasher (use Volume down/Volume up button, then press Call button)
- Connect your phone to PC
- Run DAF.exe and follow guide step by step
- Phone auto reboot and go to MAGLDR113 menu
3.Flash rom by recovery.
- copy rom boyppc-shiftpdaxxx.zip to sd card
- goto magdl menu
- ad recovery
- install zip from sdcard
- choose zip from sdcard
- boyppc-shiftpda xxx.zip
- yes.....waiting android boot.....
Make sure you use a card reader to transfer rom to sd card.Less chance of corrupting files.
P.S. ROM can take 15-20 minutes to boot
ok so that rom i posted above will work on mgldr but also will support clockwork!

HI,
Magldr is the bootloader(required)
Clockworkmod will flash the necessary partition for the system to run.
ok just tries the DAF.exe way throught MGLDR option 5 usb, installed, went to boot and went to boot and got "NAND kernal open failed"

Simple please because i dont know much...if it possible to copy the file at sd and just press the sd install from the recovery ...
Do you have the cLK bootloader installed? If you don't, you can't use ROM manager properly on the HD2.
However, I'd suggest downloading the ROM you want from the browser, booting the HD2 into MAGDLR--> recovery, and installing from there. [ That is assuming you using MADGLR, which I'm assuming you are].

Copy the rom you want to your sd card (download after which bootloader you are using)
Wipe data/cache/dalvik from cwm and install rom.
and how do i know wich bootloader i use?And if you be kind could you tell me by a link wich rom is mach to my phone without problems?
When you boot up your phone, do you see a cmd-like screen showing some text after the htc screen? If so, you are using MAGLDR. Otherwise, cLK.
yes there is one...like some comand are runing and writes "ok" "done" and after that is the android logo..
so
wich rom is the best fit to hd2 and how to i put it in?
Is this the way? "Wipe data/cache/dalvik from cwm and install rom" and if so the file with the rom i put it on sd card root?or in a folder?
Sorry for the lot of guestions..

The best ROM depends on what you like. I'd suggest using Tytung's NexusHD2. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434860
So, to install this ROM, you need to-
1. download the ROM and put it on your SD card. Just download it from your PC and drag it onto the SD card root, not in a folder. [it doesn't matter that much, but it's easier to just have it there instead of in a folder].
2. Boot into MAGDLR. Do this by holding the volume DOWN button and end call button at the same time while booting the phone.
3. In MAGDLR, scroll down into AD Recovery. From there, wipe data/factory reset, then install the .zip from SD card. Reboot your phone and enjoy the new ROM.

Yes this is mostly right but:
1. Use the app Titanium Backup to create a backup of all your apps and data on your SD card
2. To boot into MAGLDR hold down the power button, not volume down
3. Before wiping data I would recommend creating a full backup of your ROM in CWM, just in case
Also, you may need to repartition your NAND if necessary. Look in the first few posts of any ROM you decide to flash, it will at some point tell you what size 'system partition' you will need to create. If this partition size is less than or the same as 150Mb, you don't need to change anything. If, however, it is larger than 150Mb do the following:
1. Download and install the NAND Toolkit
2. Boot into MAGLDR menu then select 5. USB Flasher
3. Select 'MAGLDR repartition' in the toolkit
4. Select the correct partition size from the options given in the toolkit
5. Repartition
6. Flash your ROM (as a .zip) in CWM
7. Reboot, then reboot another few times just to be safe
8. (Optional) Restore your apps by downloading Titanuim backup, then pressing menu>batch>restore all missing apps and data.
Hope this helps
I was installing Gingerbread on my HTC HD2, but I extracted the files in the gingerbread zip. He said not to extract it. I did not read that part. Now I have no zip to use with clockworkmod. I dont know what to do, I cant bypass the screen. Is there anyway to reset my phone to stock so I can redo this all over again? Please help me.
Or is there a way to by pass it?
Help me! I want my phone to be stock again!
If you cant bypass it how can I uninstall MAGLDR!!

bootloader> task29> rum windows mobile
That simple
[/COLOR]Erm, why would you need to do any of it again? You unzipped the rom,,, so what? Delete what you unzipped, get the zip again, put it on SD without unzipping, start phone with power held --> magldr option 8 ad recovery --> starts cwm, from there choose 'wipe data factory reset' just to be sure the partitions are clean (i(f you are gonna make an sd ext partitiom now would be the time))then 'install zip from sd ' job done.
I would have to agree with samsamuel. there is no need nor would "bootloader> task29> rum windows mobile" fix your issue. You only need to delete the unzipped version off your SD card and replace it with the zipped version. Then follow the instructions where you left off at.
[Q] HELP ME! I dont know how to uninstall MAGLDR
[A].. to uninstall magldr is to do:
1 task 29 (wipe all data and NAND)
.. to install Android on your HD2 you must do this:
1. Power on hd2 pressing vol down (three color display) and attach USB cable
2. Flash MAGLDR113 (phone is restarted and booted in magldr menu)
3. In menu with vol key select USB Flasher confirm key is green
4. Flash MAGLDR CWR 5.0.2.6 (partition size depends of the rom you are flashing)
5. Wait for magl menu and select AD Recovery (8) then select:
-mounts and storage
-mount USB storage and copy zip file from comp to sd card,go back (unmount) pres key arrow to go back to
-based recovery and select
-install zip from sdcard
Wait to ends,boot and you have android installed on your HD2!!!!
I'm kind of lost why you want to uninstall MAGLDR. If you want your phone to be stock windows mobile download your official stock rom. Extract it to get the nbh file. Rename that nbh to LEOIMG.nbh. Copy it to your SDcard, and flash in bootload mode. This should reverse you back to stock. I would do a search for help 1st. There are many threads already about how to flash back to stock.
What you only need to do is give a little clearer instructions on what your problem is, where your stuck at and what your trying to do.
please i need a perfect ROM to upgrad my phone.
here is my phone infio:

hmm, magic, , ,

click start or go or whatever teh button says
abaracadabara
hspl.
update failed
I have been able to upgrade the phone from SPL-2.0.8 I followed the bellow steps but it got to point and show " UPDATE TERMINATE UPADATE FAILED"
.Copy leoimg.nbh to SD card storage.
14.Disconnect USB cable from phone.
15.Open ‘File Explorer’.
16.Go to ‘Storage Card’.
17.Confirm that leoimg.nbh is in SD card root level.
18.Power off your phone.
19.Press volume down button (don’t let go) and power on your phone.
20.It will load into bootloader.
21.You should get ‘Red, Green, Blue and White’ screen with SPL-2.08.HSPL.
22.Let go volume down button when you see ‘loading…’.
23.Then ROM upgrade screen will be loaded.
24.Press power button to start update the ROM.
25.ROM update process will take around 15 minutes.
Gosh, you're doing it in such a complicated way. I'll give you a simple idiot proof guide. (Android guide, as wp7 is too easy)
1. Flash the correct hspl and radio according to what the rom thread says, download links of these should be provided on rom thread.
2. Install MAGLDR (So much easier to use than CLK) From here
3. Install Clockwork mod recovery, from here
Although before flashing go onto the android rom thead that you wish you flash and on there you will see the recomended system and cache sizes. Once you unzip the clockwork download file, you should see a file called: Flash.cfg Open/edit this file and then enter the recommended files from the thread.
4. Then go onto the thread and download the nandroid rom you wish to flash.
5. Go onto MAGLDR and click on option mount storage and then mount SD card, then simply put the zip rom into the root of the sd card.
6. On Magldr select the option of Nand recovery.
7. Voila you're in Clockwork mod recovery, now clear system data, and clear cache. After that go onto additional options and clear the dalvik cache.
8.Next just simply follow the recovery steps and install zip from sd card and flash the rom.
9. Once flashed it should automatically reboot and select Nand as default boot, and load the android rom.
Simple.

the magldr sd mount doesn't always work, sometimes corrupts larger files. Safer to use teh 'mounts and storage - mount sd card' option in cwm.
