[Q] HD2 Nand ROM issue - freeze's on first reboot

Hi there
i've had a search through the forums and google, but havent come up with anything...
the isue is, after flashing a new CWM NAND ROM on my HD2, the rom will load perfectly the first time. however the issue is when i try to reboot the phone... it loads through cwm, but hangs on loading the rom...
this has happened on several different rom's, and after several task29/mgldr/cwm re-flashes...
Any ideas?
Cheers
Gav

Have you tried doing absolutely nothing after first boot, other than skipping through the setup wizard? What I'm wondering is what you may be installing / doing that could be causing this.
One thing that could help is to run logcat with the phone connected during bootup and you could see what is causing it.

Yeah, looking at your log, you are definitely in a boot loop. Android keeps restarting after what looks like initializing the audio... looks like some files are missing.
What ROM are you using? Have you applied anything (updates) else at all through CWM other than the ROM? Does the ROM you are using require an SD-EXT partition? Is your SD card in the phone?

Which version of CWM are you using? Is it 1.13? Whatever it is, what size did you flash (the partition layout) for your system partition?

I'm using the latest versions of Magldr and CWM. I flashed a 250Mb system partition.
Gav

Are you sure that is a large enough partition? Is that what the ROM developer recommends?

just use the "daf" folder that comes with the build once you unzip it.
it has the CWR setting configuration all done ready for the build
just flash it.

My issue is: When phone loads android from NAND (sometimes it freezes in GO GO GO) I can use it some unpredictable time. FE. When I switching Mobile Network on it(after 1-2 it freezes). I even upgraded radio to 2.15. No changes still freezes. Second point is, when I turn off radio module and starting using dev. (FE while playing Angry Birds) it freezes again, with the noise on spekers. In my case I detaching battery and waiting for a while (because if you put battery again after a second) it freezes on GOGOGO again. WTF with device. Maybe it is a physical problem?
Dev is TMOUS HD2 16gb.
ps. When I used Android via SD same freeze always happened only with Angry Birds. In WinMo I didnt recognize such issues. Oooh. One more thing. When I tried to go back to WM 6.5 off.ROM. nothing happened after upgrade. I think my device will always live with Android till the end of the days. Thank you in advance!

[Q] HD2 stuck on load screen after flashing Gingerbread

Hello all,
I decided to take the plunge and install Gingerbread on my HTC using instructions in this weeks MicroMart. Having completed all of the steps my HTC is now stuck on a boot screen where the screen is black but HTC appears in green.
I was wondering if anyone could suggest a fix?
The steps I took to install Gingerbread were as follows:
Installed HSPL (2.08)
Installed Radio Leo 2.15.50.14
Installed MAGLDR 1.1.3
Installed Clockworkmod Recovery
Installed Gingerbread 2.3

You most likely flashed the wrong size CWM that you need. Is there a link to what ROM you downloaded and what recovery size? You should be flashing the 150M for 2.3 AOSP ROM's.

Actually, heres a nice stable gingerbread ROM you can use.
http://www.multiupload.com/WD83QRSA99
Download that and and flash this Clockworkmod file.
http://www.multiupload.com/LVBWUM9L28
That should work pretty good.

Ah, I think I downloaded a 400 one, will go and investigate.
Thank you for the tip

Check out post #3. You can use them two files. They'll work perfectly and leave you with about 240MB left of internal storage. If you want more partition your SD card with an Ext3 partition and it'll use Apps2SD.

Hi, Andriod now loads but it doesn't recognise my T-Mobile Sim.
Any ideas?

[Q] problem flashing pyramid

Hi there i have a problem flashing Pyramid HTC WWE 1.35.401.1 i wiped everything i have magldr and clk i used clk to partition my 2gb sd ext 2 1024 i used recovery for 5/180/5 but i always get error about image file on sd card 0 and sometimes it freezes to please waiting processing system, what am i dooing wrong please help

If you really have magldr and clk that is the part you are doing wrong because they cannot be used both. You have to chose one of them. But i think you meant cwm instead of clk.
Is the image corrupted? You can try downloading and installing it again.

OK it worked but now i'm stuck at htc quietly brilliant logo for about 15 mins what should i do?

Anyone pls help i know i'm doing something wrong but what ? I really want that rom

Is there a specific kernel or sofware i need to instal before flashing rom?

the kernel is included in the rom and you do not need anything else. if you flash the rom the way it's described in the thread everything should work.

I tryed installing other pyramid rom but the same frozen at logo screen, i waited for about an hour before i took out the battery ,when i bought the phone it had nexus one rom installed, it is thd only rom that works. Maybe i have wrong spl or radio ?

[Q] HTC HD2 from android 2.3.6 to 2.3.7 upgrade

Hi there,
I have the NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V3.1a_NAND_(Android-2.3.6) on my HTC HD2 and I downloaded the TyphooN_CM7_v3.6.8-MAGLDR ROM but there was a slight problem, everything went well up until the moment when the phone boot up which it stayed on the android figure for ever, i have waited maybe 20+ minutes for it to load/boot but there was nothing. I re-flash twice but still nothing was happening, also rebooted the phone couple of times but it kept locking at the boot up android figure screen. Do you have any ideas why or any other suggestions? Please if you could help that would be most appreciated.
MAGLDR Ver. 1.13
ClockMod 3.2

Which cwm partition size did you use ? system/cahce.
If you used the right knows, that means that you have bad blocks. That can affect a lot of thing. Increasing Misc partition helps.

It is not an upgrade it is a clean installation of the nw rkm. I formatted the old system 2.3.6 and I installed the 2.3.7 ftom scratch on the internal memory of the phone. I haven't touched the sd whatsoever. The proccess was exactly the same as I did with the 2.3.6 version of android. Hmm don't know why is acting like this, please help, thanks

Pm me your teamviewer Id. I will help you.

Right now on the phone i have the 2.3.6, am not going to do the attempt for the phone tongiht, is getting late for this now , as for teamviewer how would you help me? everything takes place on the phone. If you want we can do this on the weeknd at some point. do you have msn or skype so we can arrange the meeting? lol
Thanks for your effort bud

Try redoing the partition as the other poster said. Tytung's NexusHD2 uses a 135MB partition with 2MB of cache. Typhoon's uses a 150MB partition with 5MB of cache. If you didn't change the partition size and are still using the one for Tytung's when going to Typhoon, this is probably the cause of the boot up issue you are seeing.

Ok, you mean to make the partitions on the sd card right? And the rom will install on the sd and not on the phone then? So I have to format the sd?

[Q] Problem installing ICS roms

Hello XDA.
I have this problem when i try to install ICS roms on my HD2.
The one i've been trying most is NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.3-CM9 V1.0.
I tried some other ICS roms as well though, just to see if they'd share the same issue (which they do).
Up untill now i've always been able to install non-ICS roms without any problems, but when i install one of these, i get stuck on a black screen with green "HTC HD2" text in the middle.
Since i've tried several android roms, i'm not a total newb at this, but I can't seem to be able to fix this.
Some specs:
Radio: 2.15.50.14
Using CWR 5.0.2.6 (tried older versions too, updated this one yesterday)
magldr 1.13
HSPL 2.08
If i can supply you with any more info, please ask ahead =)
And thanks in advance for the help!

Do you have a 200/220 mb system partition?
Could be you looked over it

i was not able to boot ics roms with my 150 mb partition. i used nand toolkit to wipe everything and rebuilded it from scratch with a new partition layout then it worked for me

In the Internal storage tab my of storage settings, my total space is 255MB.

Like everyone said, you need to partition the space as Tytung suggests for his ROM at least 200MB. If you are using the 150 MB partition from Tytung's Gingerbread ROM, then this explains why you are stuck on the boot logo. I went back to Tytung's Gingerbread ROM since I need to have a working camera/video and for some reason his ICS ROM gave me problems with access to the Gallery to see pictures that I have or took.

if i recall what i did correctly, i made my boot partition about 900MB, since i have a 32GB SD card

Dude.. the ext partition is one thing. The cwm recovery layout the other.
Ext partition in your case 900mb is for storing apps on a partition in ext3 or 4 format of your sd using an app2sd or datawsd script.
The cwm recovery layout is for taking some space from your nand(for ics im using 220mb, tytung says at least 200) to be able to flash the rom into your nand and start it without bootloops.
Try it. Install cwm and change the cfg file to 220mb system and 5mb cache.

alright alright i'm making progress here.
I did as you said and increased the space. I got slightly further now. instead of the green HTC HD2 screen, i get some colourful block animation; which i assume is the boot screen of the rom. It keeps looping tho so i'm not quite there yet..
I tried 400MB system tho, lets see if it works with 220

oh dear...
your hd2 has 512 MB NAND, then you HAVE to use something like:
system ya 200M
in your flash.cfg for CWM.
This is NOT the space of your SD-card!
Greetings.

I realise that now xD Thanks a lot for the help, to all of you!
I just booted ICS, looks great =D time to have some fun!

You should check your recovery partition.
