$20 to walk me through Android REinstall - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I had someone install Android direct to the phone (NAND), and wipe out Windows altogether. I'm trying to reprogram because after working fine for 5 months, the signal goes in and (totally) out randomly.
Sooooo, I've got root, aMAGLDR V1.3, Kernel 2.6.32.15, and I'm running ROM Manager...but I don't know what the hell I'm doing, really. Oh, and I downloaded some ROMs to my microSD.
And there's a catch. My USB port is totally loose now, so we need to do this without plugging in.
Is it possible?
If I boot into aMAGLDR, and I choose
1. Boot WPH, I get: WPH not installed
2. Boot AD SD, I get: SD Kernal Open Failed
3. Boot AD NAND, starts my old crappy ROM
4, 5, and 6 are USB (non)options
7. AD Hardreset: Do you want to erase all data? No, I don't.
8. AD Recovery: Invalid boot image header
9 Tetris: Press Enter to start, and then it doesn't start, and then I get sad.
If someone walks me through this (here, pm, Skype, Google Talk, Facebook, phone, whatever) I'll Paypal ya $20. If a bunch of people post the right answer, I'll split it, but don't fight over it. This is meant to be a fun little challenge, and a way for me to learn a little.
So, the race is on. Or is it?

You got magdlr installe. Do you have the recovery installed too? that would be the next thing you would have to flash and not to need a cable. the rest is easy and dont need a cable but you do need your sdcard. Being that you havent stated whether your phone is a eu model or a us model I will take the chance and say its the us model, next question is do you plan to use a ext partition of the sdcard? If you are then you need tpartition the sdcard from the recovery partition (CWR) after you have then you can copy the rom of your choice to the sdcard on your computer, then insert the sdcard into the phone and then flash the rom. if you dont plan to use an ext card, then skip that step and just copy thre rom onto the sdcard, flash and reboot.
A loose usb means nothing as long as it work thats all that matters, plus if the usb is loose then you have a bigger problem, how do you plan to recharge the phone?

U have milion solutions on forum for ur problems but if u really need help pm me i will give u skype or gtalk and I will most likely solve that for you cause i played a lot with my HD2

I use an external charger to recharge the batteries.

Can't use rom manager with magldr, if you run it it will break the cwm instal, and I suspect you already did hence "8 ad recovery" not working.

Rom manager now works with magldr hd2. U can flash recovery. And in turn flash rom to nand.

Really?
Want to tell me how?

Okay, if you read post 3 of the guide in my signature you never have to plug up a usb.
Good luck

It covers clk, recovery everything. No usb needed.
The only thing is once you boot into recovery go to mounts and format all that has a format option. After you format everything,power down remover sd card and transfer your rom onto it. Then power back on and boot into recovery again and flash rom, reboot and enjoy !

Not only does this appear to be a rather rude response (don't know if that's what you intended) but this is also a rather pointless thread. There are countless guides on how to install NAND Android (my favourite being this one) and if you had done any research you would have known beforehand that ROM Manager and MAGLDR don't work well together. I really don't know what showlyshah means when he says that ROM Manager now supports MAGLDR because as far as I know it isn't true and there would be loads of threads about it.

It's not a rude at all. I've done tons of research on these forums.
The problem lies in the fact that those of us who are not programmers don't have a base level of knowledge that is assumed in these forums. Couple that with all the acronyms that are new to us, and it's a puzzle to figure this stuff out.
Every time I program a new device I say, AHHHH! That was sooooo easy...once I knew the steps. Until then, it's impossible.

Have u do it or not ?

Here's where I'm at. I followed that guide. THANK YOU so much-I hadn't seen that one before.
I tried to install a ROM after I installed clk, and got stuck in a loop. At least I'm gettting a different result.
I've started over, and I've got CLK on the phone now. Now, Which ROM should I install?
Thanks for your help.

Updated update.
The rom I tried to install is HyperDroid-CM7-Licking-Lobster-v5.6.0-cLK-signed
When I started my phone, it just goes back and forth between a screen with an "H" on a twirling cube, and that splashing into the Android dude...and splashing back. Left it for 45 minutes.
Now, clk says it installs, but when I start, I'm back to the Android/H loop.
Like I said, I need someone to walk me through this.

Reinstalled. Same loop. Trying the Nexus Rom.

If I try to boot through HBoot to NAND I get:
Normal boot ...
ERROR: Invalid boot image heador

R u using the correct model(EU or tmobile)?

I use it on Tmobile, so I'm assuming Tmobile version. How would I know?
Someone else originally programmed the Nexus 2.3.4 NAND Rom on it, but I don't know how he did it.

t mobile USA cut their own deal with HTC, to make a hd2 with double internal rom and a little more ram. (And in teh process gave their customers a device with an insta-kill switch, which they no doubt regretted when thousands were returned bricked in teh first few months of release)
if your hd2 has red+green end+send keys, and says 't mobile' beneath the earpiece, its a 'tmous' (T MObile US) which is slightly different to teh rest of teh worlds hd2's.
If you have white keys,you have a regular hd2.

If i install magldr will it erase my windows 6 off my htc hd2 leo tmobile?
Yes it wipes the place where WinMo is and replaces it with MAGLDR. If you want to keep WinMo and flash Android just flash it via SD card.

I think what Skellyy means is copy a exstacted Adroid file from a SD card build and run Android from SD card. Just wanted to clearify. But Skellyy has a very good point, I suggest you try it.

You can flash the original stock ROM from the Tmo site if you don't want to keep MAGLDR on it. I'm sure there are apps for winmo to backup your apps/programs incase you want to go back. And yeah you'll keep your settings as the phone will detect them on the SIM card.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
You can back up certain aspects and settings with apps like Microsoft My Phone and SPB backup. SPB backup will do more than Microsoft My Phone but it is paid app also plus with back up apps such as SPB backup you have to use the same ROM or you will have problems arise. All you have to do to reinstall the ROM is download the ROM and flash it then use the back up you used before you went Andoid or WP7. Most Android ROMs have mutiple APN settings preconfigured and does a search on the first boot and ask if the settings for your carrier is the ones house want to use. I have no idea about WP7 as I have not tried it or are very interested in it.
ty for you help guys i have decided to just boot android off sd because i use my phone for work and afraid to brick it lol
You shhould do it dude. Tgerpe will always be somebody to help. TMac and Sam come to mind. It's actually easier to flash Android then to brick your phone.
One of the only ways that I know of is flashing a wrong radio but as long as you have a Tmo just make sure you don't flash a .51 radio.

If you feel more comfortable going with a SD card build that is cool cause in the end it is up to you to make sure you are doing everrthing right and don't mess your HD2 up. The SD card build are 100% safe as they can bot mess your HD2 up cause nothing is flashed to the phone meaning nothing is changed in the NAND memory. But if you really want to go NAND and try Android or WP7 it is not realky complicated the only real difference between going Android and WP7 is you have to use the MAGLDR USB flasher to flash the WP7 where with Android you can use MAGLDR USB flasher or the SD flasher, you can also installments Clock Work Mod (CWM) and use it to flash Android.Here are to links to guides on flashing Android. But if you follow them through to the point that you have MAGLDR flashed you are then ready to flash WP7.
MSkip's guide (wich is a little old now but still good) also use HSPL 4 instead of HSPL 3 as he says in the guide as HSPL has been updated to support HD2 SPL 3.03.0000.

I'd take slight issue with that statement. Not that its wrong as such, the phone is indeed insanely unlikely to be damaged, but I have seen lots of posts, (and it happened to me more than once, , ,) where after running SD Droid the phone would get stuck loading winmo sense at boot, and require a hard reset. Not damaging, but a pain none the less.
Course thousands of people use SD every day, just making aware of the potential side effects.

Thanks for the tip Sam as I have not heard of that from anyone. You have also been around herr a lot longer than I as well. It is a major pain to have to bard reset your HD2 but if this is the only negative effect. Then I would say it is exceptable side effect. I have read some post about after extended use of Android from SD it has ruined a SD card requiring the purchase of a new one. I have also read a few post about concerns of the added wear and tear on the SD card reader in the HD2, but have not seen any real prof this should be a concern. Thanks again for you dvice though Sam.
At the OP some say it runs faster from NAND then from SD I have not tried a NAND Android ROM yet so I csn give no personal feed back on this. Maybe others can give you some feed back on this question. But from my use of Android on SD I can notsee where it would actually perform any faster. Now the boot up time is drasticly dropped down with the NAND Android ROMs I do know that.

plz help!

i just got my htc hd2 cause someone stole my old one, on my old one, it was easy 2 put android on the sd, with my new hd2 no rom will work, it loads, but when android turns on it will lag, and apps crash and say force close, and the market wont work, i tried this and mcc's 4.5 and its the same thing happening, what should i do?
Have you tried a full wipe in clockwork and then installed? Do that as your first option and if that doesn't work then Task29, reflash MAGLDR/cLK then clockwork and then your ROM.
im noob, i dunno what clockwork is and how 2 do that? and i never used mgldr/clk on my old hd2, i just did a simple drag and drop onto my sd card, then flashed it, and it always worked fine, now when it works, theres always problems, also, do you know how i can reformat my sd card? ty for help, appriciate it!

Yeah you need to install HSPL and a new radio. Again, there are several guides on how to do this. Search around a bit. One thing though, if it was me, I would just install on NAND and bypass windows altogether. The guide linked above should tell you all about it and how to do it.

+1 I agree with dung and install NAND.

I thought I'd post here since I'm having a problem with android install and I'm a noob as well (probably more noob than the person posting here). I tried installing nand android on my HD2 and followed the steps exactly. At least I'm pretty sure I did. I installed MAGDLR, then the recovery, and then android. Everything seems fine when booting except it just hangs at the HTC screen. I left it at the HTC screen over night since I heard the first boot would be long. So now I am wondering what are my options. I wanted to install WM again so I can retry the android rom install but since it stuck at the HTC screen, device manager doesn't see it. I didn't brick it did I? Thanks for your help in advance!

Couple things, did you first install HSPL and radio? Those go on before anything else. Second, how did you install the rom? Through usb or through recovery? Lastly, if you flashed via recovery, how did you transfer the zip to sd card? CWM has been known to corrupt files during transfers. I would recommend using a usb card reader or through magldr's usb mount option.
Actually one last thing. Make sure you have selected the correct recovery size. A ROM requiring 150mb will work on a 400mb partiotion, but not the other way around.

It's actually MAGLDR that corrupts files, not clockwork.
It's most likely that you don't have the right partition size though. You can change the partition by going to your clockwork file on your PC, opening it, then look for a file 'flash.cfg' and right click on it and open it in a text editor, then editing the line "system ya | 150" to whatever the ROM needs. The '150' will most likely be 150, 300 and 400 etc. so just change the numbers and save it.
ok i will try and do nand, what is one of the best nand to use, ty so much for help.
Hmm maybe you're right skelly, not sure. Either way it's best to use a card reader.

I would have always said one of the CM versions... great ROMs. Finally tried MIUI this week in preperation for putting it on my woman's G2 (always thought it looked like a girly ROM). OMG I'm hooked! I don't think I can ever go back to CM again. It's blown me away.
But you cannot go wrong with the popular CM ROMs. I tried the Sense one also for the eyecandy I love... but none of them ran smoothly for me.

Girlfriends kills android roms everytime!

Dear xda users,
My Girlfriend got a HD2 and I installed Android on it.
She used SD versions but she kills them everytime.
After a month the phone got stock on boot screen.
Then i tried to install NAND Roms but after 2 months of smooth running the same problem again... (example: Coredroid, and sense roms)
I think that the problem is that when the phone freeze she pull the battery out and after a few times the phone won't boot anymore.
Followed all the noob friendly guides.
Followed all the instructions in the post of every rom.
Installed the recommed radio, MAGDLR, CMW, data partions that were in the instructions
Common problem on sense roms?
Should i try to install no sense rom?

Ignore Post
Problems almost always occur after a few weeks or months of use for me, just reflash the ROM, and you'll good to go.
removing the battery is not recommended, it can corrupt files on the sd-card. Try to boot without sd-card and see if it helps. If your ROM does boot, it means the SD card is corrupted, you can try to backup the SD card and restore it after completely wiping the sd-card.
If your rom doesn't boot, than it meant there's something else going on, maybe corrupted flash, so reflash and try again. This will delete all your data, so be careful
if your girlfriend is not an daily flasher also might i suggest using a daf build. All the configuration is done for you. if you are using a sd build from magldr than make sure you change the name of the build than edit the startup txt like this "rel_path=whatever you name the build(example: "rel_path=MIUIROM nand_boot=1") the 1 for magldr 0 for windows 6.5. the reason for me saying this is all android builds create a folder android when they boot up with all your info like data and cache is in there. So its best to separate the two just in case you want to boot up more than two builds from sd.
Same here.
could be a bad block in your NAND memory. you can check this with cLK and fastboot.
see this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13600733&postcount=9
i checked mine and there was a bad block in the userdata. i think that is wy my phone was freezing.
now i have flashed cLK and untill now its working great!

[Q] No screen input from android / wm

Hey guys, I need some quick suggestions if anyone has it. Currently I have a non working phone.
I have been running an ICS NAND rom on my hd2 for a while now, havnt had any issues (a few niggles with the rom, nothing major) so I thought today I would update to the latest version.
I used the hd2toolkit to resize the partition to the biggest size it would allow, then used ad recovery to flash the new .zip to the nand. This is where my problems started, whenever i booted it just showed the boot animation, (I waited over an hour and pulled the battery out and re booted / reflashed a few times).
I found with a differnet rom i tried, pulling out the SD car would allow it to get to the welcome screen, but no screen input was accepted. I thought this was a bit weird but pushed on. I tried a different rom and it stated after flashing that it was optimising applications and looked like it was stuck in a boot loop. I did some reading up about it and found that task29 should help. I ran this but then all the phone would do is show the green HTC on the white background, it wouldnt let me to get into magdlr menu.
I then decided to to a full restore and go back to the wm rom from th HTC site (The australia telstra version), this seemed to flash on fine, but now I can not slide or click buttons in wm, no screen input is accepted. Which is strange as it was doing this in an android rom, as I mentioned previously.
Any ideas on how I can get touch working / get a NAND android rom to work again.
Thanks in advance guys
First verify that you have hspl installed by powering on while holding vol down button to get to bootloader screen
Go back to the hd2 nand toolkit
1.task29
2. Select either cLK repartition or Magldr repartition and select size for your rom (not the maximum size). 200 mb is fine for ics using sdext partition.
3.Select magldr update recovery or cLK install recovery depending on your selection above.
4. Reboot phone by pressing power and holding to get to magldr or power and home button to get to cwm recovery.
5. Install ICS from sd card as before
Thanks for the help, I had to flash a different radio version to get magdlr to boot.
I now have android running of my NAND, but the screen is non-responsive now, as it was yesterday.
I doubt it is hardware related, because I have never had an issue before yesterday when I wanted to change the android version, any ideas how I could get it working?
Make a backup and then repartition again using HD2 toolkit. Maybe you got a bad download or something. Seems simple but it does happen. To me if I didn't know you choose the biggest it would sound like the partition wasn't big enough. Maybe try a cyanogen ROM since it reguires very little partition size and report back if successful.

Tell me what the steps you take to install a new ROM. Do you have MAGLDR or clk? Have you task29 yet? Are you sure your using the right partition? Are you using nand or sd Android?
If all else fails maybe check out this thread to reinstall
MAGLDR and then cwm. I've had problems in the past installing HyperDroid without
wiping my SD card first. Maybe check out this nand ROM instead or Coredroid found in my signature.

When installing a new rom, I have resized the magdlr partition, then copied the .zip to the sd card, then in ad recovery installed the zip through there. This has worked fine in the past. I followed the videos you have linked and I'm pretty sure I'm doing everything right and yes ive used task29 several times. In AD Recovery every time it states that installation has been successful. I have also formatted my SD card many times.
The ROM you linked, I can find download links on the page, not sure if I'm just missing them.
I just tried an SD card rom, its doing the same thing, no touch input is accepted.
Does NAND roms and SD roms not working imply that it could well be hardware? I just dont understand as it stopped working when I was reflashing yesterday and it was not dropped or roughly handled in anyway during this process.
I am now going to investigate MTTY (for bad blocks) and try reflashing back to original WM again. Please post more suggestions if anyone has them.
Another update: I just restored to default using the method listed below.

It took around 40-ish minutes and still no input from the screen, this is seriously frustrating.
WM boots fine and everything, but still no input is accepted.
I'm sorry to say but if your having the same problem with all that then it sounds like the digitizer stopped working. Maybe someone else knows something I don't so I would wait to see if they could help out.

Thanks mate, I am not sure why it would have just stopped last night. Appreciate all the help! I'll see if anyone else has any suggestions.
It's not a problem. I do have to admit that it does seem pretty odd the timing of it. Hopefully it's a not the digitizer and someone would be able to point out what might be the cause of everything.

This may seem a little crazy, but after having a search online about my issue, it seems that a ribbon going to the screen / digitizer is behind the power button on the HD2s, which apparently can get loose and after a sharp press of the button it started accepting screen input again!
The issue for me now is that when the power button it will stop accepting input again, untill I press it firmly again. I think I may need to open up the phone and check all the connections now.

[Q] Any way to resize the system part, without a computer?

Hi,
I'm in the middle of the jungle literally and i only have my phone with me... I'm trying to install the evohd2 ics rom but my sys part is only 160mb...is their any way I can resize it without a computer....?
Thx
If you have cLK boot loader, you can.
Just wipe all via recovery.
Then boot to cLK by long pressing back button and power. You will find the option there.
BTW, this should have been posted in the General or Q&A section, not development.
Mods please relocate this thread.

Yes, why do you prefer MAGLDR if you run android?
It's not that I prefer it its just that's what's on the phone.... Don't I need a computer to change to clk? Or am I totally off track?
My situation is this I have my tmob HTC hd2 with magldr, i'm in the middle of nowhere with just my phone I'm not programming noob but, I haven't been flashing my hd2 more than once... Actually twice i tried a pacman 4.1.2 rom as it only needed 145mb sys part, I'm actually running it now.... But it's lagging quite a bit no disrespect intended.... Probably my installation at fault... So I read that the evohd2 4.0.4 rom was supposed to be quite fast... But it needs at least 200mb syspart...
So if you say I can use clk to repartition, how can I get it on my phone without a computer just give me a link if you know where I should start looking.... I've Google and searched.... But all leads to the hd2 toolkit which I sadly can't use
there u r mate
the attached file is clk with touch recovery included.
rename the file with leoimg.nbh then put it on root of yr sd card and flash it
you dont need a pc to make repartition yr nand u can use it with inbuilt repartition option with this great tool
credit goes to the kokotas and their team.
You mean flash it like flashing a new power up splash screen? Volume down plus power button?

I did flash it and it took a few reboots because it got stuck on the recovery team splash screen...but finally it booted the touch recovery: ) i repartotioned the sys part and reflashed the pacman jelly bean rom just to try amd run it clean...and its not bad: )ill try it for a day now and see
Thx a bunch
sSo thought I'd just update...
I managed to wipe and clean all partitions and install the NexusHD2 ics rom and it's running like the wind only problem is that takes up to ten times to reboot to get it to load the touch recovery... So I got a little scared I'd bricked it.
. But it's ok now thanks a bunch
great u managed it in the middle of jungle right
actually clk is great tool. the only prob with clk is it doesnt support rmnet network it supports only ppp
hope soon devs gonna fix this
sorry i was away so late response
oh yes forgot to tell u clk recovery takes a while but let it be on very first boot its ok approx 10 mins(yeah i kno its too much)
