[Q] HD2 NAND Questions? What is it?

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.

If you have a NAND Android ROM, you have MAGLDR installed on your device.
Just go into the MAGLDR screen and flash the WP7 ROM of your choice via USB.
If you run Android from SD card, WinMo still your core OS, you first need to install some other stuff (make sure to have a correct Radio ROM, HSPL 2.08 and finally MAGLDR).
Also, for a smooth WP7 operation, please check your SD card, if it´s one of the critical ones, you might have a bad experience.

To flash from MAGLDR screen, you should not go into the standard bootloader screen (the tricolor one), but MAGLDR itself. After turning off your device, keep holding the power button, until you get the MAGLDR screen, select option 5 (flip through with volume buttons, confirm with phone button), and there you go.

You need to install MAGDLR by following the steps above to connect to your PC. Then restart your phone while holding the POWER button, which will get you into the MAGLDR options menu. Select option 5 with volume up/down and bottom left key.

thanks guys

OMG you flash it through MAGLDR, not BOOTLOADER.
First what you have to do is check whether your MAGLDR version is 1.12 or 1.13(recommended) if you want to install WP7, if not, flash it first and then enter USB Flasher in bootloader and run DWI.exe.

Thank u friends. I did it. Installed WP7. worked fine except the live services. Too much of a pain to activate live services on HD2. Not worth the efforts. Do we have key gen or a simple process? I just needed the gtalk. Have switched back to gingerbread.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

Nope, there ain´t no keygen.
My own efforts actually were minimal: I sent an email to MS support, couple of hours later I had my activation code.

Look for .xap for gtalk and sideload it... I have an activation key but since there's a limit to each key on the number of activation. I'd rather have the .xap of the apps I use then like that I can use wp7 without live services... Because I know ima be switching between os's

@OP,
Please read the sticky guides in future before asking questions, there are MANY good guides on how to do everything, all you have to do is look at the sticky threads.

[Q] How can I boot WM 6.5 After Installing MAGLDR 1.13

It is said that you have to hold the power button to load MAGLDR after resetting the phone, but when I reset the phone it automatically boots to MAGLDR, instead of WM 6.5. Can you guys tell me how to access WM 6.5 from MAGLDR?

I forgot to mention that I always get this message before it boots to MAGLDR after resetting.
Rebooting Android from SD
Android loads at 11000000
From MicroSD
Load zIMAGE
K:\ zIMAGE
SD Kernal Open Failed.
Should I be concerned?
I haven't installed Android yet, but I'm in the process of installing Clockwork 1.3

I also tried to do a factory reset through MAGLDR, but it only goes back to the MAGLDR main screen. Help? Please?

First of all, use the "edit post" button to add text to the first post instead of making two new
Yesterday I got the exact same problem. Someone said that it is because the MAGLDR can't see the wrongly flashed ROM. However, I did not notice that it is something wrong with it.
What ROM do you have and which HSPL version ?
I had WinMo 1.46 stock and HSPL 2.08

my apologies.
stock? i'm using Radio 2.15 HSPL 2.08
did you correct your problem?
would it be safe to manually hard reset?

You can't boot Windows Mobile 6.5 if you have MAGLDR installed. But there is simply way back - just run RUU with stock 1.48 ROM on your PC, while having your HD2 connected to PC (phone has to be in bootloader, that rainbow screen).

I didn't correct my problem. I had to flash WinMo back from the SD card but the raven_raven's method is also possible.
So raven, why I can't boot into WinMo with MAGLDR? I've seen many people doing that by not keeping the power button pressed

From what I know, it's impossible to boot into WM6.5 if you have MAGLDR on your device. Its purpose is to load Linux kernel, not WM .

I'm kinda confused right now

If you flashed MAGLDR, why would you want to use WinMo? The main purpose of MAGLDR is to boot Android/WP7 on the NAND. It over-writes the WinMo you had on it before.
The error you're getting, you shouldn't be worried about it at all. All it is is that you haven't flashed a ROM yet. What do you mean you're in the process of flashing Clockwork? It's not hard... just flash the DFT file on your PC via the USB Flasher option and you'll have Clockwork. Then you install your .zip ROM, reboot and you won't get an error anymore as you'll have a ROM flashed.

Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated.
I can't access the USB Flasher. When I connect my phone to my PC, my SD card doesn't show up, instead, its recognized as an "unspecified" MAGLDR driver. I can't do anything with that.
But I can access my SD card through USB Mass Storage, but I don't want to install DFT on Mass Storage when I'm told to use USB Flasher. I don't want to do anything stupid

the usb flasher option is not to mount your sd card, it is just used to flash files/roms via daf.exe. use the usb flasher to install clockworkmod1.3, once that is done boot back into magldr and go to ad recovery, and recovery should start. from there you can mount as usb mass storage. i belive the one in magldr doesn't work very well, or at all for some, the one in clockwork always seems to work well for me.

guys its simple your not supposed to use MAGLDR if your going ot go back WM6.5.
tunr your phone off. hold the volume down button and press the power button, do not let go of the volume button, its going to bring you a tri colored screen. once your in that screen plug in your USB cable to the phone and to your computer. once that is doen flash a official WM6.5 rom let it do what it does,its going to restart and there you go back on WM6.5

there is no way you can boot Win 6.5 if you got MAGLDR, never seen it here
(unless someone shows a video or something)
the only way that can be achieved is to go into bootloader (tricolor screen)
and flash Win 6.5

I thought MAGLDR was for dualbooting. I wanted to go back to 6.5 in case I ran into any problems with the android builds Nontheless, I successfully installed Cyanogenmod, and it works perfectly. I dont think i'll be going back to 6.5.
Thanks for the help, it was greatly appreciated.

Hold volume down and power button when turning the phone on, it will get you into tree color screen...then plug your phone into pc .....on the of run rom installer for win 6.5 and after it is done you should be able to boot into win 6.5.

Hi guys!
I have the same problem.
my question is if I the official ROM is it going to erase/format the old one that I had?
The reason is that I did not backup everything and it would be nice if I could go back and get the rest of my contacts...
Is there any way of having a dual boot
BEWARE: complete noob!!!

Are you honestly incapable of reading? What kind of complete MORON flashes something to their phone without a full knowledge of exactly what it will do?! If you install WinMo again you will have lost all of your data that is on the internal storage of your phone, and to be honest you deserve it if you are stupid enough to flash something without reading about what it does.
On a more positive note, you can flash NAND Android instead of reflashing WinMo if you want, using this guide. Since you would go ahead and flash this without reading up about it, I should probably warn you that IT WILL DELETE WINMO FROM YOUR PHONE! Is that clear enough for you?

HD2 gone Haywire

I attempted to install Android on my HD2 by following a guide over at HD2Forums, didn't go so well I ended up screwing up the partitions and I got an error saying that the SD card wasn't detected.
I uninstalled ( or I thought I did)
Now my phone will boot up in two diff. WM7s. One has all my info and everything correct the other is a bare install like the phone was never used.
I'm not trying to remove HSPL my re-flashing a fresh ROM. I'm having no luck. I've followed the steps here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623402
My screen never turns grey, it kinda flashes like it's going to change and returns to the tri-color.
If someone would point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Well you started wrong! You should have read all he stickies in the XDA forums. That being said I don't know what you did but I for know that the process is first HSPL then MAGLDR then flash wp7 using MAGLDR. I don't know where you are stuck at. I believe you will lose most of your personal stuff unless you could use Zune to backup pics and video. If you have HSPL & MAGLDR you should be able to go from there if you can't even see MAGLDR HOLD DOWN POWER button to get to magldr menu. If you can't even get there then try turn off phone then power on holding the volume down button AND the power button go to tricolor screen check do you have HSPL from cotulla?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

I read all the stickies on the site I was on.
However, I am running Cotulla 2011 aMagLDR v1.12
I am able to access the bootloader menu but none of the options that I am aware of will help me.

i assume you have the correct radio installed as well?
anyhow, as has been mentioned, go in to MAGLDR and use the USB flasher /update option, then run the WP7 install file from the PC make sure the SD is in your phone and is empty (it will get formatted).
now i cant remember if you do magldr then go to USB update and plug in the USB cable in at that point or plug it in first, anyhow, that should help.
If on the off chance its not being detected by the computer when you connect it to your PC then use a program called USBDVIEW, its very good for deleteing all your USB drivers and starting from scratch, very handy if things get a bit confused for it.

I dont know if this is the correct way so please correct me if I am wrong.
In your case I would do a completely clean install so do a task 29 and then everything from the beginning

You could have just searched the HTC Leo HD2 forums, but follow the link in my signature to get task29. Also, you probably should use MAGDLR 1.13 and read the "How To" of WP7 to find out the order of preparing your phone with HSPL and MAGDLR.
The thing is...reading all that you can before flashing ROM's will save a whole lot of frustrations...also keeping track of your forums on how-to do something. I save the links to all my how-to's in my browser.

[Q] HTC HD2 stuck on boot menu

I've already look through the other threads of users with the same issue, but none seem to have exactly the answer I'm looking for.
I was running windows phone 7 on my htc hd2, which was easy enough to do.
but yesterday I decided I wanted to put android back onto it, so I downloaded
Energy_2.8.2012.SensationXL from here. Followed all the steps in the thread, but now everytime I turn on the phone I get the error "NAND yaffs2 boot mount failed" and then just clicks straight over to the boot menu
so, as stated in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971268 I tried to "task29" the phone through the HD2 Toolkit app, and start again.
But all I get when trying to: task 29, update to/ install magldr 1.13 or clockwork, it just gives me an error [264] connection.
I'm unable to get onto the tri-coloured usb flashing screen that I used when I put WP7 on it, i've tried putting it in 'usb flasher' mode from the menu to no avail..
is there somehow a way to put the new ROM I downloaded ^^^^ onto the phone by switching it over to mass storage mode,
and then selectiong option 3: boot AD NAND?

how about return to WM,then try task29 and MAG or CLK

I've always done the task29 and wiped it via HD2 Toolkit, but it's still stuck on the magldr boot menu
does the USB flasher option be the same at the bootloader (three-coloured screen) for flashing the new android rom?

If I simply loaded the android rom onto the SD card via an adapter, would that work if I went through the MAGLDR boot menu?
EG: 9: services, 1: boot settings, 1: boot source, 1: android from sd
..yes?
I'm at my wits end here guys!
I'm well aware of how to get into the three coloured bootloader screen, but the HD2 just wont do it!
I've done it numerous times before with this very handset from WM 6.5, then android (can't remember what version) , then WP7, and now it's decided to stop doing it when I want to go back to android, and the task29 has wiped it all, so I can't even simply revert back to WM6.5..
if someone could give me some step-by-step instructions on either a nand or SD android rom and the steps I need to take to get it working with that, bearing in mind the 'stuck on magldr' issue I have.
I can't remember if I stated it in my previous post but ever since I did the task 29, anything I try to do ie: update magldr to v1.13, update clockwork, or anything like that, it just give me an error saying it isn't connected via usb.
and now (started a few min ago) it isn't being recognised by the computer when I plug it in, even if i try and use 'mass storage' from the menu, whereas yesterday it was

Yes, I agree with the others.
When I try a new ROM and it fails for some reason or another, I always just go back to win6.5 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283) and start over.
A bit of a hassle, but have found this to be the most reliable way so far.

how can I flash it back to 6.5 if I cant get to the bootloader/ when it doesn't recognise the phone when it's plugged in

When flash back to 6.5... you don't need a computer. All you need is an SD card. Download the correct file that matches to your country... extract the file... pull out the nbh file and rename it leo... then place it on the root of your SD... then boot.
This is a short run down of how to get it back to stock. Search a little... cause I know there is a thread that tells you how to do it in detail... plus it have all the files that you'll need.
