Hi, sorry for my really bad english. Im Argentinian. I have a little problem.
I cant enter in the flash mode, dont work the volume keys in my HD2, i cant navigate the MAGDLR menu, and its impossible install another ROM, a few months ago installed WP7 for testing the touchscreen (didnt work, replace it) but now dont work the volume keys and really want to go back to android.
There's another way to enter the flash menu??
thanks! and again sorry for the bad english
I have been hanging around the HD2 forums for a little over a year now and this problem has came up several times. And I have not read of any work around for getting into the bootloader without working volume up and down buttons and no Windows Mobile on the HD2.
Even if there was a work around to get to the bootloader, once you flash MAGLDR you can not use the volume buttons to scroll through the menu of MAGLDR. And it doesn't stop there you would also have to have the volume buttons to flash a Android ROM via Clockwork Mod Recovery.
So My advice to you is to see about getting the volume buttons fixed or get a new device. Sorry but that is the hard facts.

HI,
Is there a way to flash the new roms without the Volume rocker working. My phone was all good till i dropped it and the volume rocker has stopped working.
I ask tot he super minds...Is there a way to flash a rom if ones volume rocker is not working?
I looked at the ROM thread for WP7 and at one point you have to chose USB flasher via the volume key. If thats true and there is no other way then i cant instal WP7 ever..
************sigh**********
PLS help
EDIT:--- Now i am dead... installed radio....installed magldr and now cant select usb flasher mode. Damn.
Pls help

You need Enter boot software.
My friend Spike advised it to me long time ago so all credits go to him for finding it.

Edit, but if you try WP7 you need to realise Enter boot won't work there so you can't go back.
Better to fix the volume keys.

Thanks for that.
The only problem is that he's already installed magldr and AFAIK there's no way to get back to WM to run the cab, unless you know of a way back that doesn't involve using the vol keys?
You need an electronics dude (like me) or some experience on how-to de-assemble at least phones anyway if you succeed on de-assembling the phone all you have to do is using a tiny pin plug it inside the volume controls you should be able to press the pcb push button and not the outside plugin
If you cant do all of this ask a friend of yours (electronics) or take to phone shop hell do it for you in exactly 30 secs
no way ...
There no way to flash WP7 without volume key ... Many rom or tool offer you
the possibility to enter directly in bootloader but after flashed MagLdr you will be stuck because you will be unable to enter in MagLdr and unable to scroll down to choice 5 (usb flash). i know it because i have the same problem ....

Hi all,
While fixing my broken LCD+digitizer, I broke the flex cable for volume up/down part of the flex. My HD2 is working fine except the volume up/down buttons.
It's a genuine HD2 for now, but I want to be able to install new roms especially Win7. But all the docs that I read here or the videos that I watched in youtube are saying use "vol down" button for 2-3 seconds to get into 3 color mode.
Unfortunately my "vol down" button does not exists as the flex going to the vol up/vol down is broken
Is there a way to get into 3 color mode to be able to install new ROMs (or HSPL if needed) without using vol down button ?
Thanks!
frm
Honestly i really doubt it, but look around or google it, you might be lucky and there might be a way.
I spent maybe hours for googling this but couldn't
hope some experts can shed a light

Actually there is .. In WiMo 6.5 Dev section I tried a few roms that had some kind of an application called EBL (Enter Boot Loader) it launches the Bootloader directly from within WinMo.
But remember I't only a temp fix .. you should replace/fix your vol
I will provide that cab whenever i find it
If you already have a custom winmo rom on phone try holding the end key, see if you have a advanced menu with bootloader option on and it will reboot phone into it.
If not, try searching for "advanced menu" or "advanced menu end key" etc and should find an installer for it.
doesn't every custom rom has an .exe. with enter bootloader?

now that you mention it, that is true, but i don't think anyone uses that cause of the fact that there button works... lol
Let's think a little further. After flashing MAGLDR, how are you going to access the "usb flasher" mode?

You're right, he can flash hspl and put custom wm65 roms on his phone and run android off of sd cards, but without a working volume button, he can't use magldr to flash nand android or wp7 builds. In fact, if he flashes magldr, which I think he can still do, he will be stuck with just magldr and be unable to do anything or flash anything... and unable to get back into the boot screen to flash back to any wm65 roms.
I have been trying to nand install android on my HD2 but everything i do failed.
Before i continue i would like to set the HD2 back to factory default (wm6.5) but no i can not get in the multicolored bootloader screen. aMagldr V1.13 is installed and when i start the phone holding down the power button it starts aMagldr and not the original bootloader screen so i can;t install wm6.5. The only OS i can install is Windows Phone 7 but i do not want to use that system.
Ihope someone can help me with my problem, i have been surfing this forum for the last 5 days but can not find what i am doing wrong. I hope i have given enough information.

yes, because thats how you start magldr, , , with power held.
Bootloader however you hold VOLDOWN, not power.
sorry, i meant to write volume button.
so just to be certain ... you are HOLDING volume down AND power/endcall TOGETHER for at least 8 seconds?
I have tried it about a thousand times in a lot of different ways.
comes up a fair bit this one, , cannot access bootloader, , , the only actual time ive seen it fixed, and i think ive seen it fixed on two separate occasions, , was dismantling it and disconnecting the bottom hard keys., , not that i'm recommending you do that, of course.
Hi, as from another thread you will see that I have mentioned the screen is malfunctioning, i.e doing things itself. Went to a mobile shop today and the chaps said it's defo a digitizer related problem, so I've ordered one.
Now the other problems I have is that the micro usb port has come off the solder so isn't connected to the circuit and hence won't work in both charging the phone and letting you connect to pc.
Lastly the major problem is the volume rocker. It doesn't function at all, I tried opening the phone and repositioning the button but it's fine. I think it's missing the circuit below the volume button or something as I didn't feel a button thing there, it was only two dots where volume up and down are.
So the big question is. Will there be anyway in which I can flash a new rom without getting into bootloader as the volume rocker doesn't work. Also the micro usb port doesn't work too, so is there a way? Or would I have to get the volume rocker fixed?
Sorry to tell you but the volume rocker being functional is a must for MAGLDR. You can not navigate MAGLDR without a working volume rocker. You can access the bootloader via a couple of different apps via Windows Mobile, but after flashing MAGLDR or clk you can no longer access the bootloader without the volume rocker working.
You do have touch enabled custom recoveries, and you can flash clk via SD card. But you can not flash Clockwork Mod Recovery or any other custom recovery without a working USB port. So final answer, you need to get one of the two working before you can flash Android to NAND.
Hello,
i have 2 question about HD2 with Android NAND
1. I cant make hard reset on the phone. I've tried factory rest form the menu, but after the restart, nothing is changed. How can i make hard reset in another way?
2. Is there a way to install Andorid ICS or Jelly Bean without working Volume buttons...
Thank you!
To master reset you have to go into recovery

you are pretty much stuck right where you are, unless you just happen to be running cLK with a touch recovery, and if you aren't already running cLK and touch recovery, you can't get them, because you need the volume buttons to install them.
Isnt there a PC program that i can use to install Andorid from the computer or any app that can map volume buttons to some of the hardware buttons on HD2?

There's always SD Android. I don't think it's possible to do much without working volume buttons.
Can i use both NAND and SD Andorid? How will choose which one to boot first?
Wait, sorry I didn't read the OP properly, you're already on NAND Android right? If so, then you're stuck on that ROM, SD Android requires power buttons when in MAGLDR.
use hd2 toolkit install clk and then over the hd2 toolkit touch recovery. use backbutton to boot into recovery.

oh sorry you need the volume buttons...
if you have something for trade we can trade http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1860554.
i think you have no way to get another rom...
You can install recovery without volume buttons, but you need CLK.
just flash the recovery via fastboot and viola touch recovery and theres your reset

No.
