[Q] 5/180/5

This Android ROM requires something called "5/180/5" and an ext2/3/4 partition in ClockworkMod Recovery. What is "5/180/5" and how do you apply/install it?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783
use this toolkit.after installing it connect your phone to pc and in mgldr menu choose usb flasher. you must see usb flasher....usb.now in nand toolkit choose mgldr repartition-at left column choose custom-as cache partition write 5 instead of 45-click repartition at left bottom-write 180 in the opening window.
for ext partition:mgldr menu-ad recovery-advanced-partition sd card-1024 or 2048-as swap 0.(warningartitioning sd erases it.so take a backup)

You're the best! Thanks!

Need help booting 'Imilka Gingerbread 0.8'

Hey,
I need help with Imilka Gingerbread 0.8, as I don't have 10 posts yet I can't reply in that thread so I have to start a new thread (which is actually .. pretty odd).
I have an EU HTC HD2 and I'm trying to install NAND + CWR, it is my fourth ROM Im using, first NAND, all SDbased androids did work immediatly
Flashed original HTC HD2 ROM
Reformatted SD card FAT32
Used Task 29
Installed radio 2.15.50.14
Installed HSPL 2.08
Installed MAGLDR1.13
Flashed it according to advice 5/170/44 layout
Did every wipe at AD Recovery
Partitioned my 32gb SDcard 1024mb with 0 swap
Installed zip from SDcard
Rebooted
Waiting for about 2 hours at the black screen with green HTC, post says: First boot can take up to 10-20 minutes.

EU users need 5/180/5 CWR system partition and ext2/3/4 partition on sdcard.
TMOUS users need 5/360/5 or more CWR system partition.

ext2/3/4 partition will be made @ AD Recovery partition SD card ?
If not, how can I make this partition, without linux and stuff. Just windows 7.
Or am I doing it in the wrong order?

Just did it all over again
This time with 5/180/5 layout and made ext3 partition using easeus on windows using instead of clockwork thingy.

nope, still doesn't go past the black screen + green HTC
booting for an hour now, nothing

Think I found the problem.
Updated AD recovery to 5.0.2.3 orsomething there was an option show log
and it said creation of EXT2 partition was aborted, so now I put the SD in my card reader and manually formated it ext2. retrying now

Nope, nothing
I can manually mount everything but SD-EXT
show log::
mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /sd-ext
failed: invalid argument

Bootloop HTC HD2

Hello.When i install a ROM like Touchwizmod 3.0 on my HD2 on Clockworkmod recovery (i select NAND with data on SD) and after i reboot from AROMA i get a bootloop.Why?
I have:
NAND : FAT32 ;2,00 GB ;Primary
EXT4 : Ext4 ;5,82GB ;Primary
What i make wrong?

What size /system partition did you flash? Make sure it's big enough for the ROM you chose. If it is big enough but the ROM still doesn't work, try increasing it to account for any bad blocks.

Im not sure what /system partition i use,but i know:
For nand i use 2,00GB partition,i use MAGLDR 1.13 and i have a 8GB Kingsdon.
What partition do you use for install NexusHD2 4.2.2?
I use NAND with data on ext

You need to partition your nand (internal phone memory) not the sdcard for system partition. Get the hd2 toolkit to do this. Ext4 (on sdcard) is for your data and fat32 (on sdcard) is for photos music etc..

Your Hd2 in Magldr ,(5) usb flasher
On your Pc you ave to flash a recovery with the good size for the system partition (in the config(.cfg) file)
running the Daf.exe in the folder of the recovery as an administrator...

As the two above posters stated, it's the size of the part of the NAND allocated to the system when you flash CWM in USB Flasher mode in MAGLDR. Either use the NAND toolkit like shanman suggested (probably the simpler method) or do what bhzmobile said and edit the flash.cfg in your CWM folder on your PC before flashing it. As for the partition for your specific ROM, it will say it in the OP of the ROM you're trying to flash.

QUOTE=bzhmobile = I used this procediment for installing recovery,i downloaded the 250MB Package .zip,flashing with Daf.exe in Administrator Mode,i reboot AD RECOVERY,wipe data,cache and dalvik,installing Touchwizmod 3.0,used NAND with data on ext,rebooted and it's stucked on the Android logo.
I do the same procediment with Miui V5,but it's stucked
I'don't have problems with PACman rom full installed on NAND (i have a htc hd2 european),i'ts fluid and stable
QUOTE=Nigeldg = If i make a simpler mode,i do reinstall MAGLDR and install the 250MB Clockworkmod recovery,i not have problems?
And if i make a simpler mode,i do recreate the EXT4 partition?

Flash a 285mb partition since that's what NexusHD2 requires

+1 for the size of your recovery. 250 is to small.
Flash a recovery size 380 for system and it 'll be good

[Q] keep WP7 and switch between android Roms

Hi all
I have HTC HD2 EU , I installed WP7 and Android (Parandroid witch is a good one ) with dualboot ; thanks to all developpers .
Now I want to keep WP7 and switch to other android roms using 4ext correctly (or CWM) , like BOXMAX Rom installatio
How install
- must have 2 part ext4 ... use "MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition" for Re Partition:
1- First Partition "Fat 32" "Primary" (mmcblk0p1)
2- Second Partition "Primary" "Ext4" for system 1gb or 680mb (mmcblk0p2)
3- Third Partition "Primary" "Ext4" for data 1gb (mmcblk0p3)
- use this recovery and boot it from haret or Magldr SD ...
- before flash rom : wipe and format for sd-ext & sd-ext2 from recovery menu then :
- flash rom .
I found a lot of threads but for nand android .
Thanks

I tried some threads , get into 4ext recovery and off course I deleted WP7 , but when started Android ( BOXMAX NATIVE SD) it stuck on boot image for more than 40 min !
I installed WP7 again and Android ( parandroid ) .
keep waiting for help !

You have your answer right within your post, " use this recovery and boot it from haret or Magldr SD ..."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337663

Are you using the SD recovery from here https://app.box.com/s/jh2w3keom4x81p1qsw8f which is linked in those instructions?
It sounds like you are flashing 4ext recovery (CWM) and therefore wiping your wp7 in nand.
The sd recovery boots from magldr ad sd.
If you want to triple boot paranoid nativesd, boxmax directsd and wp7, you might want to increase the size of your first sd-ext partition to say 1.5 or 2Gb. So that you have;
fat32 (size=whatever is leftover) first (primary)
EXT4 size 1.5 or 2Gb second (primary)
EXT4 size 1Gb third (primary)
WP7 (whatever you choose) fourth (primary)

Thank you a lot for your answers and your time ,
Now I have dualboot WP7 in nand (4.5 G) and Parandroid Rom in the sd with very easy install .
I only want dualboot , keep WP7 in nand , than use 4ext recovery to wipe Parandroid Rom and flash BOXMAX Rom ( as said in instructions here ) in sd , because when I tried partition with 4ext recovery when flashing BOXMAX Rom I wiped my WP7 from nand :silly: .
How to flash the BOXMAX rom using 4ext recovery without deleting nand ,step by step plz if possible ?

I think you will need to create an Ext4 partition of at least 1Gb on your Fat32 partition, either with minitool partition wizard or use Extended TWRP as your recovery.

my tut is too old from times when android run from FAT32 sdcard...
for nand version procedure is different and i not make tut for that
i sold my HD2 two years ago and since then i cant test this options....
THIS IS ONLY FROM MY MEMORY (maybe i write something wrong or forgot some steps)
for NAND ROM installation you need 4EXTRecovery for SDcard... not sure for complete procedure but first make WP7 partition (look my old tut) and rest left for android...
put 4EXTRecovery on SDcard (for example in A folder)
boot to magldr
10.Services, 1.BootSettings, 3.AD SD Dir, select "A"
10.Services, 1.BootSettings, 1.Boot source, 1. Android from SD
2.Boot AD SD
wait to load 4EXTRecovery
advanced - Partition SD card
select minimum 512 mb, this is EXT4 partition for system, rest of memory if you want is FAT32
2nd sd-ext skip
swap skip
Yes - I'm sure
EXT4
wait format to complete
red button to back to main menu when format complete...
now is ready to install ROM...
togle usb storage (in 4EXTRecovery)
copy ROM in zip file to SDcard
Next, Next, Agree, Next - Install on NativeSD/semi NativSD - Format (yes)
RMNET Connection
select options you want, after restart when boot to magldr just select which system you want boot
10.Services, 1.BootSettings,

thanks for this....dual boot hd2 finaly succeded

ur video tut is still useful....thanks alot
