a) Put a stock rom onto your sd card and name it "leoimg.nbh"
b) Put phone in bootloader (hold down volume button, then press power button and wait for instructions)
Or just flash a stock rom via active sync. There is many many guides on forum to do this.
Its very easy. Format your sd card using a digital camera, download a stockrom meant for your device meaning the stockrom with the native language of the phone. Unpack the stockrom and change the .nbh data into leoimg.nbh.
Format you sd card in your computer into fat32 and copy the leoimg.nbh data into it. Put the sd card into your phone and go into bootloader, then follow the instructions on your phone's screen. That should do the job.

TUT on How-to Dual Boot Mango RTM & Android SD?

Now that the ever resourceful Yuki/xboxmod have availed to us the Sd Unlocker Cab making it possible to dual boot the Mango RTM and Android, could somebody please take us through the step by step guide about enabling this. I have waited for this day a long time and I guess my prayers have now been answered But.... I am on NoDo and I want to make the big jump to Mango/Android dual boot in the smoothest way possible.

SDCARD & ANDROID RELATED CABS:

These files change the size and format of the SDcard extrapartition
This partition is used as working part for updates and to save logs
It is usually formated as FAT16 and sized of 200MB
So choose the file which the number of GB you want, send the cab to device and Reset
The first partition will have the new size now and already formated in FAT32
So you can use it as USB key or for Androïd without having to do it manually
Take care if you reset again datas on it will be lost
If you want to revert back to FAT16, 200MB just use DEV_EXTRAPART_REMOVE and reset
This feature is to be used beside DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab
With this tool you can unlock your SDcard
The card will be relocked after each reboot to WP7 what is a security in case of stolen device
So use the tool each time you want to boot to Androïd or use SDcard as USB key.

After installing the EXTRAPART cab (of whatever GB u want) u must go to settings, about , and RESET wp7. After the reset is complete the partition should already exist.
When you want to use android, go to the applications list, storage lock, and unlock the sd card if it is not already unlocked. Restart your HD2 and boot into android. If u want to go back to wp7 just restart your phone again.
Remember that if u boot into wp7 after android again, u must unlock your sd card using the storage lock app again, before booting into android for it to work...

On the first post of the ACA thread it says "Includes optional rootfs.img that allows to boot build from magldr (!readme! in /sdcard/Android/SDMAGLDR)"
Follow instructions in the readme.
Also in Magldr -> 10 services / 1 Bootsettings / 3 AD SD Dir / Android (not Androi~ or anything similar)

You might want to get a card reader, especially for android as there are issues with usb transfer to phone.

Newbie question: Step prior to step 4 above.
I already downloaded my Android files sitting on PC with folder name ../Android.
My question .. How do I copy exactly these Android files to the partinioned folder of my microSD card?
Via Zune or Do I need to remove the sdcard from phone first and insert it in my PC to perform the copy?
I'd appreciate if someone can provide the necessary steps.

Best to remove card and use an external reader. Use partition software like easus or minitool and format the partition to be fat32 (make it primary and 32kb cluster size) then you can just copy/paste it right from explorer.
This is all under the impression that you can see the card in windows. If you cannot, it means you didn't run the StorageLock cab in WP7 before you rebooted.

Thank you! I just used the sd adapter, insert to pc and copy the android files with no issues. I thought it was hard initially but everything went fine. Dual boot mango and android is perfectly working .
so after mango is installed - I presume the sd card will be locked right?
if i install DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab this should unlock it but if install the partion DEV_EXTRAPART_xxxG.cab do i still need to use easeus and mini tool to partition the sd card?
sorry for noob like questions

When your XBmod/Yuki WP7 Mango 7720 is now running successfully, you have now the option to do a dual boot with Android following the steps below.
1. Send the DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab via the sender tool. I am not sure if necessary but I think I’d rebooted my phone first after the install of the storagelock.
2. After the reboot you’ll see 'StorageLock' tile in home, click it and click yes to unlock first the sd card.
3. Once unlocked, send the DEV_EXTRAPART_xxxG.cab next
4. Once done you need to reset the phone via settings>about. I repeat reset and not just reboot for the partition to take effect. You don't need to use easeus and mini tool, the DEV_EXTRAPART_xxxG.cab will partition the card for you as well as format it to FAT32. Special thanks for XBMod/Yuki for that.
5. After the reset, you can go to 'settings>about>more info' just to verify the WP7 total and available storage space has been reduced.
6. Once verified, click the 'StorageLock' tile again, to unlock the card again. Everytime you do a reboot the sd card will be locked automatically.
7. Once unlocked, turn off the WP7 as normal.
8. Safely remove your micro sd card from HD2. Insert the card to your SD card adapter and then insert to your PC. Your PC should recognize the card. This is the method I used.
9. Copy the Android files that you extracted to the root of the SD card.
10. Once done, insert it back to your HD2 and you're set to boot the phone to Android via MAGLDR.
Note: Before you proceed to boot Android the first time, you need to follow the guide on where you extracted the Android files on what else to be done/MAGLDR settings etc. My first attempt was not successful due to some missing files required by MAGLDR but after few readings here and there, I finally made it through. I guess on the 4th attempt.
Good luck

I just went back to stock ROM and SD card doesnt work?

I tried the SD card in Windows 7 with a USB converter and nothing. All I did was go from Windows 7 to the HD2 stock 6.5 rom. Is there any way to fix this as its a 16gb card.
Thanks
just use nokia phone like E71, E72.... format on it. your sdcard will be ok.
Thanks. I assume there is no other way as I do not have access to a Nokia Phone.
Yeah, there are tools to format a WP7 SD card. Search the forum.

I had the same problem. What worked for me is using this method by rasmus5034:
1. Flash WP7 without an SD-card (Yuki's Back to the future ROM)
2. Send DeviceProvisioning.cab with the Cab Sender
3. Update to version 7392, still without an SD-card
4. Send DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab with the Cab Sender
5. Hard reset your device, insert SD-card when the device reboots
6. If the SD-card has been detected it is now possible to unlock it.
Or use GPARTED.
You should have searched before posting this useless topic. SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH THIS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED 10000's OF TIMES!!! SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH!!!
Is possible stiky the thread for this procedure to reset the SD card? Question is a much sought...

Thanks this worked.
The slam08 - I did lots of searches and none that I found worked for an SD card than can not be read. This method took me a lot of time so if there is a better or quicker way it should be pinned. I recomend you actaully try a search as the ones that came up for me were all useless unless you have a Nokia phone.

How do I remove SD lock on Yukie ROM?

Hey dear all,
I was one of the first one to install Yuki's Mango ROM...today I tried to unlock my SD card with a Nokia phone to no avail. Its asking for a password.
Whats the easiest way to unlock my SD card now?
So
you will use your sd card in another phone ?
I prefer miniTool partition wizard, it's easy, free program for windows.
Just plugin your sd card into computer, open this program, delete all partition, add new "Fat32", label primary, and all space for FAT32, then hit enter and plug out
thanks but the card is locked....how does my computer recognize it?
I have an old Nokia phone but it won't format the card because it says I need a password...a password that I do not have.
I need to completely delete everything on it or else my SD card is useless. I can't use it anywhere.
Your pc will just see, that sd card is blocked or sth.
But dont worry, just open the program.
Every time i change wp7 to android i use this.
Sry for my poor english

Just ignore password request and you'll get the option to format the card, just as simple as this mate
P.S. Another opportunity is to install DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab through the WP7-Update-Cab-Sender within Yuki's ROM and then choose to unlock the card
Thanks guys. For whatever reason my PC doesn't find it...and my Nokia won't let me format it. Unfortunately I don't have the Yuki rom anymore. Now it's on stock rom...maybe I'm doing something wrong ? :-S

Tried another Nokia phone and it worked...thanks for your help guys, appreciated. In s40 it didn't but the other could (s60)...

[Q] A few questions about wp7

Hello! I decided to flash wp7 on my HD2, but I have some questions-

2) Do you also need to remove SD card when flashing WP7 on the HD2?
3) Do you still need to unlcok your HD2 after flashing wp7? And if so, how do I do it?
Thank you!

1. No... SDcard can be always in phone

3. no... WP is already full unlocked.... but you need Live activation code for Live services

Thanks, but how do I activate those Live services? Will Microsoft send me the activation code? I heard they were not happy when WP7 ROMs were released for the HD2.
Also, will my SD card be formated during the Flashing and do I have to delete the Program Files folder on my SD card (on WM6,5) and CAB files?
