I have looked over other posts and have not found the answers I am looking for so I will ask them here!
As I understand the MAGLDR 1.11 is in essence a rom loader/tool on the phone's ROM that will accept the Android NAND Roms and run them. This is essentially replacing the Stock WM Rom . Am I Correct?????
Can the Stock WM Rom be put back on the Phone after MAGLDR1.11 is installed(using HSPL I would assume)?
In other words... Could I go back to a WM and Android on SD if I wanted?
Lastly...
In looking over this NAND Build I see the instructions are as follows:
Installation:
1. Start ROMInstaller.exe and follow instructions.
2. Boot your device and select in the menu "4. USB Flasher"
3. Flash as usual.

What is "Flash as usual"??
And I have seen talk about needing to format the SD card in some special way... with partitions?? What is this? I have a TMOUS HD2. I believe hte talk about partitioning the SD card is for EU-LEO users with 512mb??
Thanks
Don
Yes you are correct, it replaces the Windows partition. You can uninstall NAND Android by flashing a stock rom. All you have to do is hold the volume down while briefly pressing power/lock. This will enable USB mode to install original Windows ROM (TMOUS is your case).
NOTE: Befor installing MAGLDR, make sure you have the newest TMOUS radio and HSPL2. Read question and tutorials for flashing in HD2 ROM Development.
Flash as usual means once you install MAGLDR, hold the power button while starting the phone and select USB Flasher with your volume up and down buttons and selecting with your call button. Then you simply run the install program from the custom NAND 7z or Zip file, whichever it may be. It's Usually DAF.exe or Install.exe.
Don't worry about partitions on TMOUS, this is usually not a problem, but if you need more memory for installing applications you can have your DATA on your SD card.
I also recommend that you update your radio to the newest 2.XX.50 and HSPL.
Good Luck!
Could I still run the Android that I have on my SD card with the MAGLDR installed??
Don
No, those SD card builds are not built to be run by MAGLDR.
had this not so great idea last night that I would flash my nand android ROM for my HTC HD2 on Tmobile UK, by formatting the SD card then reinstalling CWD and flashing the ROM...
Unfortunately my fone will not switch on, I can get it into bootloader but do not know what to do from here...
any ideas?
I think I need to reinstall magdlr 1.3, then clockwork mod then my nand android rom, can anyone confirm this is right?
please help
ta
whilst I can get into bootloader and it says USB , my PC will not let me access the SD card, nothing happens at all like when the Open folder pop up appears, well it doesnt....
what have I done??
Is the HSPL 3 already installed on the phone?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893
You need to take your sd card out of your phone and use a card reader. There is a problem with Magdlr usb so that would be the only way to copy things to and from the sd card.
I would do a task29, reinstall magldr, clockwork and then go into clockwork and install.
Hope this helps.

I have HPSL 2.08 do I need HPSL 3.0??
Sure I have a card reader
But its erm, well formatted now to FAT32...
Whats task29??
How can I reinstall MAGDLR when the phone will only go into bootloader but my PC will not open the sd folder?
thanks

quick seaches found this:
Task29
and you need to be in the bootloader to install magldr -- you use RUU to install that. Then once into madldr, then you can install clockwork -- that uses DAF.
Also, you should upgrade to 3.0.
Hope this helps
Please go read some n00b guides, everything you asked about here is VERY cleary documented, There is absolutley no need at all for this type of topic.
Not trying to be an arse but its just really annoying seeing the forums flooded with these types of topics daily and its because people dont follow simple logic and look at stickies or guide topics prior to jumping in.
trouble is when I connect my phone via usb to PC in order to update to HARDSPL3 nothing happens...
Its like my phone just will not sync with my pc
Even if I get the phone to bootloader mode, where it first says serial, when I connect the fone it does say USB but nothing else happens...
Where are these guides? why are they so hidden...
I dont know if my fone is bricked...please help
If I where you, I would start from scatch.
Go to bootloader when it says USB flash stock WM6.5
Flash HSPL 2.08
Flash MAGLDR
and so and so...
Same problem here with my boys phone. Only thing is, I can't flash anything and wmdc won't recognize the hd2. I feel like an ars lol. Just go buy an android phone and leave winmo in the dust ;-P You might enjoy unloading on it with an ar15 though muahaha

Try using different UBS port or UBS cord and make sure when in bootload your pc show a driver connecting with it or it won't work. And if your on window Vista or 7 try right clicking and run as admin
Also do not have your SD card in while doing this

heres an update:
I installed HARDSPL 3.0
The phone then restarted and is working however I now need to install TASK29
But from lets call it my nand ROM main screen one it has loaded, when I connect attach a USB cable the phone will not sync will windows mobile device centre so I unable to perform TASK29
How can I get around this?
Its great the phone is working again however all I am confident after I manage to run TASK29 it will be clean so that I can install another NAND rom on to it...
Just desperately need my pc OS windows 7 to now recognise my phone so TASK 29 will work, but how?
thanks guys for your help
the plot thickens....
I went into booloader and it still shows SPL2.08 when I downloaded and installed HARDSPL3??? This is the filename I downloaded and installed HSPL3_PKG
Also after removing SD card, the phone boots into MAGDLR v1.13 and then keeps looping into reboot...
On a different note, this time when I phone switched on with USB attached but without SD CARD, my pc OS windows 7 installed a driver and it sees it but now I cannot get into the main ROM screen to run TASK29....
Gonna put the SD Card back in and hope it gets me there that way..will report back in 2 mins..
thanks for your help
so i reinstalled magldr 1.13 and clockworkmod but now when I am in magldr and go to boot ad sd I get the following error message:
load zImage
k: zimage
SD KERNAL OPEN FAILED
it cannot find clockwork mod is that right?
where do i go from here?
thanks for your help
all fixed thanks for your input especially connecting to usb ports this one thing helped me resolve everything
there should be a sticky will all info easily accessible what to do when this happens..
thanks
p.s. if anyone can tell me why my bootloader still shows hardspl 2.08 when I upgraded to 3.0 i would be grateful
thanks guys

3.0 is just an update to 2.08 that works for the newer hd2's
also, task29 will format your NAND -- it is like the ultimate hard reset. I use it when I switch from different roms. That way there is no residuals left over from any previous roms that may or may not cause problems.
check here for any ?'s that you might have. All stickies have been rolled up into one thread.
Well i noticed that task29 doesn't wipe everyhing. I had issues with various rome for a while, I tried task29 many times with no success, the only thing that solved theme where flashing stock 6.5...
And don't go to spl3 or you won't be able to flash magldr, stay on 2.08

Is this a joke? i mean, the stickies are there, you only need to read them and follow the steps you have tutorials and howtos in task29 thread, then in the hardspl thread and in the hd2 sections (sd,nand).
anyway, i am glad, you worked it out
i just put on nand rom for the first time, and i want to re-do it with american android, but when i try running magldr 1.13, it says usb not connected and i cant get past this to flash american android, any answers for this plz, ty much, error :260:
can you give us pls some more input on what you are doing exactly? Where does it get stucked, when you boot it or do you select something from the menu and then the problem with no usb connected occurs?
well when i go into magldr and try to get it to go into usb flash, so i can flash american android, it opens and i check the boxes and click next, then it scans for the usb, but it wont bring up an error, and it tells me to make sure my usb is connected and it is connected already???? im a noob at this so i cant explain to much into what im doing wrong, im just going by the steps ive read, i have android on it and it works just great, but i want a dif rom, not the stock rom i found.
when you choose usb flasher do you see:usb flasher......usb
i think americandroid is using daf method.so right click on aca.exe and run as administror.
be sure you downloded mgldr version of it (not clk)
never mind, my mistake
when i try running magldr it says error and it wont run magldr, and usb is connected, but it says it isnt...?
plz can anyone tell me what im doing wrong??? im running magldr and my hd2 is connected, but when i check the boxes in magldr and click next it looks for my pda, then says error 260 and make sure cradle/cable is plugged into pc, and it is, and it wont go into magldr so i can click usb flash drive...???
please be more specific and write your steps. what do you mean by saying ' i'm running mgldr'.have you flashed it to your phone in usb flasher mode? what are specifications of your phone.have you done these:
1)hspl 2.08
2)task 29?
3)flash mgldr
4)partition of sd
5)partition of nand by cwr

ok last night i did my first nand on my nd2, i ran the hspl, then i ran the magldr 1.13, then i scrolled down to usb flasher, then i ran the rom that the youtube link gave me, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvS4EvS0PAw then it all worked, i had android on my phone, but i dont want the rom in the youtube link, i want one from this forum american android, and i was wondering, when i go to run magldr on my nand android i flashed, it tells me error and that to check if my phone is connected, and im just trying to do what i did in the youtube video but with a dif rom, but it wont work from android, it did just fine on wm 6.5, and my phone is connected to the usb, but it tells me it isnt, but i can still transfer music and other things, but when i go to run magldr it tells me my phone isnt connected, so i cant get into magldr and scroll down to flash usb and use the rom i want to use from this site, better? plz help thanks much.
in order to go into mgldr menu power off the phone.then power on but hold down the power key until mgldr menu comes. its not necessary to reload mgldr for each rom.if you installed it to your phone now it is in it.
i left it alone, and i powered off and tried turning it back on this morning when i woke up, and it powers on and then stops on quietly briliant, it wont even go into android now, is there any way i can go back to wm 6.5? or make my phone work again? when i go into magldr in usb flasher mode and try flashing a new rom, it tells me an error has occurred, error descriptio: USB init failed info: \rspl\rspl.cpp 736??? now my phone doesnt work at all... :<
getting phone working...

have you used the the HD2 toolkit? You can find/download from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783
try wiping the phone with task29, then loading the MAGLDR or cLK / which ever nand/rom you want to use. Hopefully this works for you....

you mustn't flash new roms in mgldr-usb flasher mod.
1)just put rom.zip into sd
2)go to mgldr-ad recovery-install zip from sd-choose zip from sd-find rom in the list and choose with call button.after installation is completed reboot.
try these with that rom:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933951

when i go into ad recovery it says no boot source???
Then you have to install cwm first.
I have had a similar problem with my phone and what worked for me was disconnecting the usb cable and plugging it back in. then it seen it as usb and i was able to flash the ROM. i know it seems rather simple but this small fix might work for you as it did for me.
if you can install cwm i would highly suggest to do that and also looking into the hd2 toolkit as someone else as already pointed out.
Hi, Tried installing my first Nexus ICS Android on HTC HD2
following instruction here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434860
Got to the point where I got MAGLDR v1.13 installed and running.
Then found that I needed HD2 Android NAND Tool and Repartitioned System size to 200 Mb
using USB flasher mode on the MAGLDR.
Then NAND Tool suggested that running Wipe(taks 29) to be a good idea before attempting to install Android so I tried running this as well.
I got the phone into tri-colour USB mode and started wipe. USB mode disappeared replaced by HTC progress bar but it got stuck at 0% and timedout.
I tried recovering to HTC original WWE ROM but it also gets stuck at 0% progress.
Currently Bootloader starts and loads a options, I can also go into USB mode but nothing will start updating the phone it gets stuck at 0%.
I think what repartitioning created a problem but I am unsure how to recover it and need your help!

Wrong forum, should be in the Q&A. You'd have thought it would be obvious, seeing as you're asking a QUESTION, but somehow people don't pick that up
Also, you really need to read more. There isn't any point in installing MAGLDR then Task29ing, in fact there is very little point in Task29ing at all unless you experience major problems with your phone. A simple data wipe (in CWM) and repartition has never failed me.
If you did a task 29 after doing the other steps first then you wiped everything back off. Install magldr again then CWM and then install your rom of choice.
Also for being a member since 2005 you should know not to EVER post a question in development.
Mods please move to Q&A

Sorry for posting it in the wrong forum.
Many thanks for the comments...I cannot install anything at present because once update process starts it times out at 0%. Task29 did not work either - it also gets stuck at 0%.
Only thing that works is Boot loader and USB mode.
As Boot loader is working I tried to install NAND Android following this instruction:
2. FLASH YOUR ANDROID ROM
The Original NAND Android Thread by Cotulla is *HERE*
NOTE1: This section is only applicable AFTER you have flashed MAGLDR to your Device
NOTE2: Make sure your phone is still connected via usb cable before starting
* When your phone Reboots it will Enter the MAGLDR Boot Menu Screen *
1. Press the 'Volume Down' button to goto Option 5: USB Flasher and press the 'Call' button (far left of the 5 hardware buttons at the bottom)
2. The menu will enter Android Flasher mode and install usb drivers if not present
3. Browse to the folder you extracted your NAND Android Package files to on your pc, right click on Run DAF.exe (or Install.exe if DAF.exe isnt present) and select Run as Administrator
But DAF is giving this error back:
Error happen
Read below for more information
Error Description: USB init failed
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (723)
thats all old instructuions.
go get the nand toolkit, and also get hspl3
...
phone into bootloader (tri colour screen, not magldr)
connect usb
run hspl3
choose 2.08.hspl (don't assume its already 2.08.hspl, check it, hanging at 0% is often a sign of no hspl)
when reboots immediately go back into bootloader
*(* from here on you can do all this in the nand toolkit*)*
flash magldr
when it reboots enter magldr
(if phone hangs on a htc screen and doesn't show magldr, you need to flash radio 2.15.50)
phone into magldr
connect usb
choose 'usb flasher'
in toolkit select desired system partition size and cache size
when its finished
phone back into magldr
choose 'ad nand'
this starts cwm
(if you havent yet partitioned your sd card with an ext partitio, look ity up and do it now)
select 'install zip from sd'
select zip from sd
browse to where you dropped the rom.zip file onto your sd card.
when it reboots you're done, , alternatively it failed somewhere, , which step?
if you get apparent driver errors, theres a nice big button called drivers in the toolkit (i think?)
Many thanks that worked like clockwork
Sorry if the thread topic is not okay, but there is the problem:
When I turn on the phone and it try to open Nand there is following message: Nand Kernel open failed and then it goes in Magldr menu. I don't have installed WinMo, so Boot WPH doesn't work. Boot AD SD also doesn't open anything, because I don't have rom on the SD card. When I am trying to go into USB Flasher the phone shows Waiting USB and i can wait ages. My PC show me erorr window of not being able to recognize the device. Therefore i can't flash it. AD Hardreset was performed multiple times, and it doesnt help. AD Recovery shows me this: Erorr: erorr: invalid boot image header I cant do it with Task29 and i think that maybe i killed the phone .... is it possible to put an SD ROM on the SD card and try to perform Task29?
Thanks in advance for the help.
install the android usb drivers , , , several ways to achieve that, , my fave is to install 'myphoneexplorer', then usb flasher should work and you can use teh toolkit to repartition the nand and install CWM, then use cwm to install a rom.
If none of this makes any sense, you haven't read enougH!
