HELP SD Android won´t 1st boot

Flashed some day´s ago WP7 but I reverted to WINMO again... and when I try to put an Android Built on it won´t boot...
I get a cmd lines, kernel something and it get the HTC screen and it get stuck in it... Tryied lot´s of diferent sd builds but the result is the same.
I already formated my sd, tried in other WINMO rom´s and other sd and the result is the same!
I have HSPL 1.66
I have the last radio
I have the same as always and previously the the Android worked fine...
Strange!!!
HELP
Please

You said you formatted your SD card, but did you repartition it? When WP7 is installed it consumes all but 200 MB of your SD card so if you try to reformat it, you will only have 200 MB free unless you repartition it.
Did you say you tried other SD cards? Also, are you running Android from the SD card via Haret from Windows Mobile? Or, are you running a NAND Android ROM?

1- Sure i repartitioned it at full size... wipe de partition, and format a new primary partition in fat32.
2- Android SD via Haret.
Thanks

Do you have Android SDK installed, so that you can run logcat and see what's happening?

Nope, don´t know how

Dont think it´s a problem with the Android SD builds, I tryed some diferent and the problem keeps there...
The problem must be with WP7, but now all is the same as before but Android don´t boot and I need Android but don´t want to but NAND on it right away because I like WINMO still...
Please help, I´m not the only one with this problem...
I get a cmd, black screen and some text, the last is...
"jumping to kernel (custom)"
And them it crashes on the green HTC BOOT SCREEN.

Try Task 29 via bootloader, flash stock HTC ROM, Reformat SD card on PC and then again on WinMo. Transfer files while in WinMo on SD card or via SDcard adapter, and try booting Android again.
Did you by any chance transfer files on SD card while in Magldr if so the files may be corrupted (known issue) which may explain the problem with kernel not booting up.
Hope this helps.

Sorry for hijacking but nobody will reply in my thread and I'm becoming impatient lol. Can anybody help me?
Hey guys. I'm currently running this ROM, I've been using it for a few days and have had no problems but today, when I turned the phone off and turned it back on, it took ages to turn back on. Then when it did it all looked them same but was kept freezing etc., then up in the notification bar it said "SD Card Removed Unexpectedly" then my phone went crazy with FC's.
So I took out the battery and restarted the phone. Then, it would turn on and go to the lock screen but then it would reboot and be at a continuius* boot loop of the HTC 'Quietly Brilliant' screen.
So then I took out the battery again, this time I took out the SD card too and booted up and my phone was normal again. Obviously with no phone storage though as there was SD card in. Then after I just skipped the setup I put my SD card back in to my phone and went to the music player and all my saved songs on my SD card played. But no internal storage (I have the SD card partitioned with a 1GB Ext3 partition). Then with the SD card in knowing it still works I rebooted again, only to come back to the HTC screen again.
So basically, how can I fix this?
If I'm going to need to format my SD card is there a way I can backup what's in the Ext3 partition?
Thanks,
L.

lrbpereira - I'm the guy that posted having the same results as you in your other thread (this one seems to be getting all the action, though). Just curious, which ROM are you trying? I've been trying Warrenbread's, but I'm thinking about trying another just to give it a shot.

Hi, i´m on Dutty´s 14 PTG. I tryed Energy and the result was the same...
I think it´s someting that WP7 installed on the phone memory... Don´t know why task29 don´t resolve it... But I can´t put the Android SD working...
And it´s seams that this is a problem that isn´t only mine... you - koz - have it too...

Sorry, I should have been a bit more clear - I was curious what Android ROM you were trying to run from SD. Have you found a solution to this yet? Did you try flashing back to a stock ROM, then HSPL & then try an android rom from SD? I'm considering giving this a shot, but I haven't had the time lately.
EDIT: I resolved my issue by reformatting the SD again (I've done it multiple times & multiple ways). This way worked for me. First, back up everything you want to keep from your SD card onto your PC. Download this & install on your PC: http://download.cnet.com/Partition-...62200.html?part=dl-6285158&subj=dl&tag=button . With SD card in the phone, connect to the PC in USB mass storage mode. Start Partion Wizard and format the card to FAT32 at 32kb and as a primary drive. After that, drag-n-drop your flavor of Android onto your SD and boot it up. Hope it works for you.
EDIT 2: After getting android running, I reinstalled all my files/folders back onto the SD card, however, this broke android again (I couldn't get it to boot from SD). So I tried turning it into airplane mode while running windows mobile - and it worked. I can now boot to android from SD as long as I first turn on airplane mode. So, I don't know if the above reformatting was part of it. If someone gives this a try, it might be good to turn on airplane mode and try to boot before attempting the above formatting info. Please post results if you try it and I'll try to edit the above.

[Q] Micro SD card useless after installing Back to the Future [XBmod-Yuki]

Hello everyone, I've recently installed Back to the Future [XBmod-Yuki] with kingston 8gb class 4. Everything was fine until i pressed 'reset ypur phone'. The phone started crashing on htc logo , so I decided to go back to wm 6.5. The problem is my sd card is no longer recognisable by anything. I tried SD formatter, hard disk low level format tool, killdisk, mitool partition, but with no luck

http://www.jayceooi.com/2011/09/19/how-to-unlock-revive-sd-card-after-install-windows-phone-7/
Or
Youtube type in search(video from 96edwy)......> htc hd2 how to format your sd card after wp7 use

thaks for the help, but both methods are not working, i've installed storage lock, but my sd card is no longer recognised by the phone itself. when i go to mass store, my pc is not finding anything either.

i have the exact same problem i also tried with the cab sender but had no luck if someone could please help us i actualy lost 2 8Gb sd cards

I had to get a new sd card for similar case.

all the solutions they gave in the forum didnt work for me, only this worked:
be carefull never do a reset from the about menu cuz this was the reason all my cards got locked <- im on this now for over a week, so believe me i tried everything, but its never useless to try it yourself because in my opinion you cant talk about a general state of cards or wp7 installation.
Reflash everything with your card inside your mobile, i mean start with windows 6.5 then the radio then magldr and then the native rom from yuki,
as it boots up wp7 you should get stuck on the htc screen because your sd is broken, now empty the sd bevor the phone has booted, and enter it in your sd reader, windows should now detect the card.
this only worked for one of my cards. and no its not depending on the brand because i have 2 sandisks and with the 8 gb it worked... with the 2gb it didnt...
but i still couldnt manage it to get to mango.

I had troubles to install WP also, I just tried again today, and I have it now!
I installed it from cabs, following more or less this:
http://www.jayceooi.com/2011/09/16/how-to-install-windows-phone-7-5-mango-7720-on-htc-hd2-video/
I downloaded 7004-7392 and 7392-7720.
I installed in 3 update steps:
1st I installed the ROM,
then 1st update 7004-7392
then I installed all cabs to get to 7661
then I installed all to 7720
Had some troubles, but by keeping trying, I got it
Now I have my red mango!
Even if it is still bugging because of my sd card... Now It freezes 1 second after being loaded.

Had that same issue, just hard reset on magldr (power on, vol up and volume up again) and problem solved.

at the stage of 7.392 to 7403 it gets stuck with me cause of the sd card it wont update and then it gets into a boot loop, its definatly the boot when i need the sd to update, the boot kills my sd and it wont recognize the updates, any trick how to get over that boot which kills the card? any way to get the updates to the card without doing that reboot on wp7

I don't have a solution to the SD unlock, BUT I can tell you that people SAY that if you put the SD in a Nokia device and format it, it will be usable again. I gave myself a serious scare as I thought I had destroyed 2 SD cards, when not even WP7 recognized them, but I found out that if you do a Task 29, install radio 2.15, MAGLDR 1.13, enable 24mb nand and clear SD MBR, then install the ROM again, the phone can read the SD once more, thus meaning it is NOT DESTROYED and salvageable. Hope this was somewhat helpful to anyone else that thought like me he had destroyed his SD!
VERY IMPORTANT: WP7 stops recognizing the cards if you take them OUT of the device, so if you want to save yourself an hour of reflashing DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES pull your SD out. Otherwise you will need to reflash if you want the phone to see the SD again.
EDIT: Read my next post for the solution! Hope this helps

How to format a WP7 secured card
Hey guys,
I have flashed WP7 from initial builds to NODO to Mango so many times that I have lost count...
With NODO I have had success in formatting the card with my Nikon D90.
Cards started to be locked in Mango. The only solution is to format the card with a Nokia C6 or any Nokia with Symbian v8 or above.
I have tried every tool and every tool is dependent on the OS for initial recognition, and OS (Window 7) simply refuses to recognize the "wp7 secured" card.

I managed to salvage my SD card using a SD-adapter and the built-in SD card reader of my netbook... (Android, CWM, and 5 USB card readers didn't work) windows recognized the card as a 200MB card at first (?..)
used SD formatter to restore the original size to 4GB

Oh rly
Because I manaed to reformat my SD WITHOUT ANY CAMERAS OR NOKIAS
All you have to do is use the DEV_UNLOCKSTORAGE.cab and that will unlock your SD which can then be read by your PC and reformatted with SD Formatter 3.0!

I think I realised your problem and I'm sorry. I had missed the part where he says the PHONE can't recognize the card either.
Same thing happened to me, but I just:
1.Ran task29
2.Installed 2.15 Radio
3.Installed magldr 1.13
4.Went into services (WITH MY SD CARD IN MY PHONE) and I picked Clear SD MBR (i don't know if that really helps, but just in case it does)
5.Enabled extra 24mb nand and I flashed the ROM
6.Then I updated to 7720
7.I installed DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab and unlocked my SD, i turned off my phone, I took my SD out and My computer could now read and Format it.
I am truly sorry if this is another "stupid" solution.

So you installed WP7 that locks the card all the way to Mango, installed the DEV_STORAGELOCK to unlock it with a .cab in order to be formatted on your PC? Sure thing, stick with that method, it works...

Are you sarcastic? I mean really are you. Cause I SWEAR it works. The card may be locked, but builds 7004, 7392 can still see it just as well as 7720, but I think you need to be on 7720 in order to use DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab!

Yuki/XBmod v2 storage error

Every time I try to install the Yuki/XBmod v2 ROM, I keep getting this damn error on the phone when it boots:
There's a storage error.
Your storage card seems to have changed-we need you to use the card that came with your phone.
Please turn off your phone and then make sure that the card is properly inserted in its slot.
I have followed the instructions countless times, formatted my SD card many times, and I keep getting that error.
It works when I don't have the SD card in the phone.
Can someone please help me with this error and tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks! I would really, REALLY appreciate the help!

Yes. I have done that as well and still gives me that storage error.
Could it be the SD card that I am using? Or am I doing something wrong?
I really want to get Mango so bad!

what OS are you at now (settings/about/ os version)?

did you prepare card?
-Enable 24MB extra memory in Magldr services
-Delete MBR of SDcard in Magldr services
if you done this and card not work, try this:
boot without sdcard... make hard reset (settings - about - reset)
upgrade with zune to 7392
make hard reset again (settings - about - reset)
insert card, boot and upgrade to mango...

try force update.... when you hit update after 2-5 seconds terminate internet connection... this maybe you must do few times before update shown

I get this error two, and I've also dual booted WP7/Android in the past then went back to NAND/CLK Android and now want to try WP7,5/Android again but now it doesn't work. I keep getting that error. So I know the sdcards work (8GB Kingston C4)

SD card isn't recognized.

After attempting to follow the confusing steps in the xbmod-yuki rom my phone froze mid-update and my sd card spazzed out and now my phone says there is no sd in the slot when its in there....I can't connect to computer either.
SD Formatter can't even detect it.

Sorry, yes. I installed WP7 Mango (XBmod-Yuki rom V2), SD card was formatted and locked. I removed WP7 without knowing this would happen, and now I can't get the card to be recognized in Windows, Linux, OSX, or any of my other devices that support MicroSD. Been searching for a fix, but it looks like I'll need to find a Symbian device to format the card.
After I posted before, I was able to reinstall the original WP7 rom and the card was recognized after a hard reset, but I'm not having any luck getting the unlock cab to work. Actually, now, after trying to send the cab to my device, restarting with the card in the phone or doing a hard reset results in the phone just not loading the OS.
Sorry for being long winded, but I'm just about out of ideas. Thanks for any help

The way I fixed that is an aweful thing to do, but it worked.
1. Flash to stock Windows Mobile 6.5 (with locked SDcard in there)
2. Task29
3. Install MAGLDR
4. FLASH WP7 (still, with that same SDcard in there)
After it's flashed, do not update, but take the card out and stick it in a card reader (hell, even the magldr >> usb storage function works).
Windows will detect 200 MB on that card. Format it with SDformatter and it will be good again.
Note: That specific card is not compatible with WP7 MANGO, so don't try to use that ever again ;-)
It took me a week to figure this out, but i successfully managed to revive my 8GB Sandisk Class 4 card, which I now will use in my camera instead of the HD2
Hope this helps!

AWESOME!

I'm going to try this, but I'm wondering which WP7 Rom you flashed. I originally was using the Yuki Update rom, then once all the badness happened, I flashed to a much older one, then back to Yuki. However, in each of those cases, I never got the 200MB partition. Anyway, I'm giving this a shot, will let you know. Thanks!

Hey again all,
It's possible there's something else wrong with my card at this point. I tried Krewsia1nl's method and it seemed like it might work, but I still never got any additional partitions that my PC could recognize. I tried it a couple of times, 12st with an older WP7 rom I found in the HD2 WP7 dev section, and 2nd with the original Yuki rom I was flashing. Same issue in both cases.
What I did find is that I can see the card in the Yuki rom after flashing, BUT if I restart the device, it freezes, I have to remove the card to be able to boot it, and when it reboots, it tells me I must insert the card to continue. Great...
This also poses a problem with unlocking the card in WP7 with the unlock or partition cabs. To install them, the cab sender restarts your device. Once that happens, my phone freezes and I have to remove the card. All subsequent attempts to reboot or reinsert the card are met with either nothing recognized, or an error (It's also important to note that I can only see the card on first boot after following Krewsia1nl's method-if I try to hard reset with the card in, the phone just keeps freezing).
So, for now, that's where I'm at. I'm going to try the UBCD Killdisk method and I'll report whether or not that works, in case anyone finds themselves in this particular, sinking boat. Killdisk Method is here:

Thanks again for your help, all. Love XDA <3

Killdisk didn't work either. Guessing my card is fried, but I'll still try a Nokia if I can find one.

I also tried to install Yukis Mango 7720 but not with good result.
Does this 7720 work in any HD2...
Ubuntu doesn't do anything if you add your WP7 SD card to reader.
Win7 shows that you have "Removable Disk" but if you try to access it Windows says "unable something....".
I thought that I have also two fried SD card because this 7720 testing.
But Nokia E51 format successfully both cards )

i have an old Nokia 3650 and a few cards that mango has ruined. Now if I can just find the plug for the nokia......wonder if it will format them ?

Just got my 32 class 4 SanDisk in the mail. How do I release the card in tmous hd2 and add 32 to set up dual boot droid. Reflash from start.... Awww lawd! Took all night! Can I hard rest with no card and do it with cabssnder to partition card and card unlock and party with rum tonite?

Can you tell me what SD Card did you manage to unlock?
I tried an E63 for my Sandisk Class 4 32Go unsuccessfully

What an absolute disaster the BTTF Yuki rom is...It is inevitable, most will lose their sd cards, it cost me $45 to replace. Could we put a BIG warning up for these roms, GUARANTEED to destroy your SD card? Because it will, at some point for sure, you will reload the rom and that's when the fun starts..AVOID AT ALL (cough) Costs...

You are completely entitled to your opinion and to post it here.
Many people have successfully upgraded to Mango and have not posted here at all.

I'm sorry, did not intend to knock the rom, the rom is excellent, the concern, it will ultimately cause you much duress as to the sd card at some point, that's my only point. Not many folk expect to lose the sd card after installing... and reinstalling...yes, there are work arounds, but, they entail, much ado and worst case, nokia.kodaj devices...there should be a MASSIVE warning as to SD card...yes, the small print offers cabs and tinkering to avoid the 'lock', but most of us don't expect any such chicanery.-)

Storage card not working, Cant access WP7 HELP!

I installed [19.7.2012][NT 8779 V1 18L 3La 3Lb]LEO_ML_51240101_R_5710902a_22515021 by ansar. Before I had this rom installed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953078. I had SPL-2.08.HSPL, Radio 2.15 and DFT MAGLDR Bootloader v1.13 installed. While using the HD2O© WP7 8779 (TANGO) The phone worked fine, I even was able to attain a activation code. (did it all in like 4 hours really late last night). So this morning I just flashed the one I said i installed 2nd above and thats when I started getting this problem. Ive tried the methods of the 1234 reset and things. So wondering if i have to go all the way back to stock 6.5 and work my way back again or if there is something that I can do. Because even booting up without SD card i still get the same error message.

did you format your card in PC before flashing new ROM?
sometimes behavior with SDcards is unpredictable... almost all problems in HD2 WP7 is related to SDcards...

0k so i was able to get past it by going into madglr and pressing reset. But unfortunently the phone won't recognize any of my 3 sd card. 2 are 2gb and one is a 4gb. Is there anyway to get it to recognize them?
-thanks

per other posts and threads...it's a hit and miss with sd cards. personally, i've never had any sd card issues using yuki rom, but roms from other chefs have caused sd card compatibility issues. there is something about the base wp7 rom by those other chefs which causes sd issues. i have used sandisk, 3c, topram, lex brands...no problems with yuki, but causes problems with pdaj, hd2o, and ansar roms.
and fyi...there's no need to format the sd prior to using with wp7. wp7 will reformat the whole card anyway.
another issue you may have with your sd card is if you used them with yuki. if this is the case, you need to reinstall base yuki, install devstorageunlock cab, unlock sd card, then you can use the cards with roms by other chefs.
