I would get another ROM and reflash it, whether it's a ZIP ROM (CWM) or a NAND ROM via DFT.

it would be awsome if you could send me a link to a good rom? android or windows? realy need this to work

Well there's lots of good roms out there... they are all very easy to flash back and forth from. I hate to say which one is "better" than another as that is purely subjective and everyone has a differing opinion. However, it seems a lot of people really like Sergios, MDJ's and CMYXLGO's ROMs. As a start you may want to check out one of those... Here is a link to the main Android NAND forum.

I have
•HSPL3 ~ SPL-2.08.HSPL
•Radio that support 576 RAM
•DFT MAGLDR Bootloader
•ClockworkMod Recovery
Installed.
Can you send a link to a rom that supports clockwork? i dont realy care witch one just one that works. am e newbie in this just got the phone yesterday, and now i kinda afraid i cant fix it :/ :/

If it turns on and will boot to the bootloader, it's fixable So don't worry that much! Try out Sergio's ROM. It supports CWM. If you do use that one be sure to back up your SD card as you have to repartition it.
The steps to install it are:
Code:
HD2 COREDROID Desire HD V1
1. Extract downloaded zip to a folder of your choice
2. Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz and zImage) to the root of your sd card
3. Boot into magldr and select USB Flasher option while phone is connected to PC
4. Run DAF.exe included in the zip and follow onscreen instructions.
5. After complete devise will reboot in magldr chose "Boot AD SD" option
6. Device will boot into Clockwork Recovery
7. Select advanced
8. Select Partition SD card (remember too backup all valuable data you have on SD Card)
9. Selet (minimum 512M)(maximum 1024M) Chose what fits best for you Recomended size 1024M
10.Select Swap 0M
11.Wait for the process too finish (do not restart device stay in ClockWork recovery)
12.Connect the Device into USB
13.select mounts and storage
14.select mount USB storage
15.Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz, zImage) to the root of your sd card
16.Copy CoreDroid_HD_HD2_v*.zip to the root of your sd card
17.Press back key after finish
18.Press back key once more
19.Select install zip from sdcard
20.Select choose zip from sdcard
21.Select CoreDroid_HD_HD2_v* file and then confirm
22.Wait for it too finish
23.After flash options pop up again Press back Key
24.select reboot system now
25.Let it boot wait about +-10Min Enjoy

I haven't really examined the guide you followed that much, but make sure you have installed a recent version of Magldr (i.e. the one you can download in the official Magldr thread in the WinMo subforum, version 1.11 to be precise). The first version(s) have been notorious for the Gogogo! bug persistently affecting some users.
Just a fyi, ignore this if you already have this v1.11

I got the aMagldr V1.11
The rom you sendt me doesnt work, it stopps here:
Run DAF.exe included in the zip and follow onscreen instructions.
i allredy installed a Daf.exe can that be the problem?

No, because it's not really an installer, but a flasher. I'm not really an expert on the CWM issues, but it seems to me like formatting your SD card(do a full format, not the quick one) might help you, since it's quite probably your SD card being the *****.
It may not help you, but if you've got a few minutes I'd say give it a shot. Don't forget to backup important SD (NAND isn't affected) first of course!
Oh, and there's also this small chance that your CWM download is corrupt. Not sure if that would give the gogogo error though.

Sorry for being a complete newb, but how do i do the hard format?
but do i need the DAF.exe to install the rom?

You'd have to format in Windows (which I assume is the OS you're running), which now that I think of it may be a bit of a problem. I don't think you can mount your SD card with Magldr, which means that you'd have to use an external card reader. If you don't have that, you'd have to reflash WinMo to format, but since that's quite some more work for something that I can't even guarantee to be a solution you might wanna hold on to other suggestions.
DAF.exe is the tool which flashes CWM to your phone. Some other tools and/or ROMS use the same name for their flasher though.

after this one :
8. Select Partition SD card (remember too backup all valuable data you have on SD Card)
9. Selet (minimum 512M)(maximum 1024M) Chose what fits best for you Recomended size 1024M
10.Select Swap 0M
i can't do **** i cant open the device in windows. is there no way i can just system recover the whole device? or do i have to rom it?..
realy need this to be working, prefer android but windows is okey

It sure is no brick, as long as you can boot into bootloader (turn on phone while keeping volume down pressed) there's no problem at all. No need to return it either.
If you feel really desperate try the WinMo thing, you've got nothing to lose except for about 30 minutes of your time.

winmo thing? is there any guide?
if i download a format program i can format the sd card..

1. Flash WinMo, this should be no problem in bootloader
2. I think it's possible to format your SD card within WinMo. I've never used WinMo actually so I can't give instructions on that.
If you can't find it or if it isn't possible, mount your SD card so you can see it in Windows. Backup data if necessary. Then right click on it (in Windows), and choose format, then disable quick format which should be selected by default. After the format you should have a clean SD card.
4. Flash Magldr again, following instructions in the official Magldr thread. Download a new copy off xda, to eliminate the possibity of just having had a corrupt download.
6. Flash CWM, following instructions in the official CWM thread.
7. Flash ROM.
Edit: I used WinMo where I meant the mobile OS, and Windows where I meant the pc OS.

I did format the SD card, nothing new just that CWM disapeard.
Now its loading with aMagldr v1.11

I've heard that Magdlr has some problems corrupting larger file transfers. Personally, I've never experienced it with v1.13. You can try using a microSD adapter and transfer it directly from your computer to the SDcard, from then on, transfer files in Android before you decide to flash.

[Q] Just a little help from my friends

Just got an HD2,coming from my Hermes.
It's like going from a 19" monitor to a 32" monitor
Not new to flashing as I've been doing it for years on my Hermes,radios and roms.
New to the HD2 obviously so I need to get some things clear before I proceed.
Flashed HSPL 2.08 already.
I believe I need this version so that I can run android and win7?
Flashed my 1st rom,an energy one.
All is well except I'm not really keen on win 6.5 anymore.
Although most of my cabs work which is great
I want to try win7 and android.
Android
3 versions?
nand=runs from the phone?
magldr=?
SD=runs from the SD card?
Win7
Not quite sure as I've not read that far yet
Is flashing win7 same as flashing a win6.5 or do I need to do something extra?
Dual boot is working with HD2 or not?
Gen.Y DualBOOT v1.0.6.0 says no in the initial post.....
"Just to clear up the most asked question in this thread, this app will NOT work with the HTC HD2, because there is no android distro available yet for that platform (SnapDragon)"
....but that was over a year ago.
Anything else I need to know?

Your right on it all, magldr you install from the tri colour screen, its where Android is installed from on the nand, then you will need clock work mod, this is basically Android recovery, you can create back ups of your roms and also install Android roms directly from SD,
Win 6.5 is the past
I've not really done much with win7 Android is the way forward,
Gingerbread is the latest version of Android.
Look for clk versions in the Android nand thread
Clk = clockwork
Probably get started with

Not too sure how to 'flash' to an android?

they come as disk image files (.img)

They come as .zip files.
Find the clk thread and learn how to install it, then you simply put the. Zip file on your SD and load clk then install Android from the zip

I'm going to use the Hd2 toolkit,this also cLK's my device.
Why does it need to partition my device and what's a good size?
I seem to have ran into some bother with fastboot command when doing cLK for dummies.
I'm getting.......
'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

It partitions some of your SD to ext4 to make more internal memory for apps

it's a zip file?

Ok found another post that explains things a bit better,let's see what happens.......

The daf thing is old, now almost 99% of the ROMs use ClockworkMod. When you're on MAGLDR screen, using the volume rockers, go to USB flasher and select it by pressing the call button. Run the Android Toolkit and choose MAGLDR repartion, and select 150mb partition size from the left panel then click "Repartition" . After it finishs, go to magldr and choose "Android Recovery" or something similar, it will get you in an orange texted screen (CWM) . put the file you downloaded on your sd card and choose flash zip file, then choose it and let it do its thing .

Rom Issues Please Help

Hi,
I am trying to install this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1326217
I recently bought a new sd card from 1 gb to 16 gb as I like Sense roms.
My procedure is as follows:
step1) task 29:
turn off phone
turn on holding volume down-so you'll go to bootloader screen
be sure you see 'usb' in screen (not 'serial')
in nand toolkit click task29 and choose proper options in each screen.
step2) flashing radio:
in phone go to bootloader screen again
in nand toolkit at bottom click browse an find your radio.nbh in pc then click install RUU(when it comes to 96% it will wait for a while its normal)
step3) flashing mgldr:
in phone go to bootloader screen
in toolkit click install mgldr(at bottom)
4) now in mgldr go to usb flasher.be sure you see usb flasher.....usb in screen
in nand toolkit choose mgldr repartition (at left top)
choose 400mb partition size(at left)
write 4 instead of 45 as cache size
click repartition at right bottom.so you'll have repartitioned your nand.
5) mgldr menu go to ad recovery-advanced-partition sd card-1024-0
(so you'll have an sd-ext partition of 1gb which is necessary for this and many other roms)
then in mgldr menu (you can go to this menu by rebooting or pulling out battery) go ad recovery-mounts and storage-mount usb storage-when pc sees phone, send rom to phone
6) mgldr menu-ad recovery-install zip from sd-choose zip from sd-find your rom and choose with call button-after installation is complete reboot phone-after approximately 20 minutes the phone will be ready.

Why dont you try all of your steps mentioned except 2 & 5?? A new radio does not need to be flashed every time. Also the systemshouldcreate its own partion upon boot.

Wait step 5 is wrong. Mass storage within magldr is glitched. You need to use a card writer to put your rom onto your sd card. Sorry i didn'tcatch that at first. Also you still should not have to flash a new radio everytime.

Its something about transferring data, I'm not certain exactly what. I would assume the file isn't transferred right over magldr interface and somehow parts of the rom become not right for lack of better terms. I read once to not transfer files using magldr because 1.13 is glitched. I'm not 100% sure what it is. Just try a card reader and see if that helps. Unless your dual booting I prefer clk .

What exactly does it do turning on? Kernal missing .. does it boot loop, freeze or restart?

Step 5.5 ... in cwm - mounts and storage (or something) - mount SD card - copy over your rom.
This will show your SD on the PC, and unlike the magldr USB storage the cwm one works. No card reader necessary.

I normally just mount and copy it over and that copies it over.
But the problem is after flashing, when magldr starts I get a message in the lines of "Kernel missing" and it stops.

Just follow your steps minus the radio flashing as you only have to do this once (which I'm sure you have already done since you have been using custom roms). Then instead of using MAGLDR to transfer the rom, boot into CWR first and then using mounts and storage, transfer it there. It sounds like MAGLDR is corrupting the file transfer (as it usually does).
Just start over with task29 then skip the radio flashing and adjust your steps to transferring the rom over through CWR.

Need assistance on installing an Android rom on HTC HD2

Hi,
I am a complete newb to HTC and know hardly anything about installing a NAND rom on my HTC HD2.
I bought the phone recently on Ebay, it was running windows 6.5 but I wanted to change it to the latest Android rom. I just want it to be Android, run smooth and fast, be able to access android store and get latest apps, have wifi, 3GS and all the features that the phone can handle.
Basically I am stuck on the MAGDLR V1.12 main screen after following mskip's guide on flashing a HD2. I installed HARDSPL 2.08 and flashed MAGDLR 1.13.
I then followed 'langthang's' guide on installing his latest rom updated on 31 Jan by 'flashing Recovery with edit' then done a partition recovery v1.13 150MB ( this is where I think I may have chosen to little). This is where I am stuck at and do not know what to do next on installing a rom.
I know this may seem very 'newb' to many of you but I would be grateful for your guidance on just installing a good rom.
Thanks

When I go to AD Recovery it says in red ERROR: Invalid boot image header. And on startup something about kernel open failed.
i am completely confused and need help!!

install cwm recovery (latest is 5.0.x.x) again with correct partition size required by the rom. you need to edit flash.cfg and enter the correct size e.g.150 or 200 etc..

I have installed CWM 5.0.2.6 with a 200 partition size and can go to the AD recovery menu now. How do I edit the flash.cfg and actually go about putting the rom on the sd card using MAGDLR, I amconfused on that aswell do I extract the rom to my desktop or just put the rom zip file straight on the SD??
Thanks

Put rom zip without tampering with it if don't know wat to do...then get into cwm recovery ... install froM SD card n choose the zip...
Flash.cfg can be opened in notepad
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

Ok.
I do not get the Flash.cfg part at all, what do I edit and copy? I am using the HDToolkit4 2.01 to partition it now.
Also do I have to put the rom on the SD card to extract it from cwm recovery, not by going into USB mass storage mode??

I would suggest installing notepad++, you open the CWM folder you download and right click the flash.cfg file. Then you can edit the recovery size there.
I would suggest that you do not use MAGLDR to transfer a rom to your sdcard as there is a good chance it will corrupt, file transfer is still unstable. Just flash the correct recovery size, then boot into recovery from MAGLDR and transfer the rom to your sdcard there.
Do not extract the rom zip by the way, just place the whole zip on your sd and flash that.

What do I exactly edit?? Where is the CWM folder?? I still do not get this part at all, can someone guide me through it..
I flashed the recovery size through the HDToolKit...
Also, when putting the ROM on the SD Card, Do I have to take out the SD and put the ROM on that way with a adapter on my PC, OR can I just boot into recovery from MAGLDR and then connect my phone via USB with the SD inside and transfer it that way??

If you look at the flash.cfg in Langthang's thread, yours should look exactly like that when opened (make sure to open flash.cfg, not flash.cfg.txt) in notepad++ or whatever notepad type thing (not MS Word) and just change yours to look the same as the example one then save it. You should only have to change the numbers. Flash the new recovery then copy the ROM as a zipped folder onto your sd card using a card reader if possible. Boot into recovery then select install zip from SD card, select your file and there you go, one working HD2 with Android

Ok I attached the recovery that I use with Team Blue Droid (credits to Dansta for porting it for us)
Open that .7z file and extract the folder to somewhere on your computer. Open the folder and inside you will see a bunch of files (one of which is the flash.cfg).
Now right click that and edit it with either notepad or notepad++ and adjust the recovery size as need for the rom of your choice. Save it and then while booting into MAGLDR connect your phohne to your PC.
Select the Daf.exe file and let it run, once completed you will have successfully flashed your recovery. Just boot into recovery from MAGLDR and then select mount usb (I believe that is the option). Then you can mount your sdcard and copy the rom that way. Once done just flash the rom with the install zip from sdcard option.
Post if you have more questions

HI,
First I've written a guide to magldr and clk, so if you want a little extra info it may help.
Second, I would recommend the program called "HD2 Toolkit" Their is a link to it also in my guide.
You need to consider updating to magldr 1.13 if you are going to use magldr, things will just work better with the latest version. Also unless you have a very good idea of what you're doing, the new clk1.5 rc1 is probably your best bet, it makes everything so much simpler.
But back to your magldr problem and the hd2 toolkit program, this program is an automatic flasher for the hd2, magldr clk and cwm.

OK thanks. What Roms do u reckon I download?? I want all the general features and Appstore..

You know it really depends on your preference as there is a wide range. There are Sense roms (2.1-3.5) AOSP roms, CM7 roms, MIUI roms, and CM9/ICS roms. The choice is really up to you

OK thanks alot for the help guys, learnt alot. Managed to sort it all out and installed this Rom on it, everything looks to be working fine.
Thank You!
