Hi, I need some help from you guys, I'm a noob in these things, anyway I was on Windows mobile 6.5 (Not a T-mobile) , and thought about changing into an android. I found some tutorials on youtube, and tryied to do It exactly as It said. Ok, so I found this video on youtube with a link on It, I clicked It, which directed me to one website. I installed the Hard HSPL folowing the instructions, then It said to install a Windows Mobile ROM, I downloaded and installed "Chucky Droid Rom" and now my phone Is like in between the Windows and Android, some kind of weird screen like theres no OS on it. Then it says to download and put Android Rom into my SD card, after downloading "FroyoStone_Sense_V2", I also deleted everything from the SD card except the Android directory. After i push CLRCAD, I start "haret", but it just shows me very little text on top of the screen, which fades away in like 5 seconds. After that i get "Sleep of Death" the screen just keeps black, unless i restart my phone. I tryied to wait for like 40minutes hoping it will start somehow, but the situation didn't change... So can somebody please help me? How do i boot my phone to android, what should I do to get that penguin with a lot of flashing text on my phone instead of this "Sleep of Death" What am I doing wrong? Thanks for answer guys.
What is your intention with running Android, do you just want to experiment with it and use it as a dual boot, ie still have winmo and then boot to Android, or would you like to replace winmo with Android? If the first option, then you will need to flash a full winmo rom as AFAIK ChuckyDroid is an extremely light rom that basically just allows you to boot to an Android rom.
If your intention is to only run Android then you should be looking at the NAND Android roms as this replaces winmo totally and the phone boots straight to Android. If you would like to do this, then follow the link in my signature on Flashing NAND roms, it is a very good tutorial and gives you step by step instructions on what to do.
Does it work on European HD2? Because i think i have the problem, because my HD2 is not a T-mobile and i did everything as it said step by step, which would give directions for a T-mobile. I think thats the issue to the problem...

The process is practically the same the only difference is that with NAND TMOUS get more storage then EU HD2, unless you have EXT partition on SD card. Anyway what radio are you currently running this could be why android wont run off SD card.
Ricey
Thanks for the help guys, after I installed the correct radio it works perfectly.
I have the DFT win 7 on My HD2, and now all of a sudden theres no signal when ever im in a 2g only zone. Everywheer ells where 3g coverage is present, it all goes fine. So im gonna switch back to good old winmo 6-5 and then to some android rom.
Anyone now how to do so?
I believe you just flash a winmo 6 rom, will remove magdlr and leave your phone as new, then reflash magdlr and the android rom of choice.
Stock rom flashing problem
Hi all, i am currently using WP7 but wish to go back to 6.5. There are a lot of reasons for this and I won't bore you with them. However I have tried all of the different ways to flash back and none seem to wotk.
1: Flashed from SD card. (not sure this was done correctly though. As it iasked me to format, which I did to FAT 32. But it said copy the renamed rom to "leoimg.nbh" and past it in the root folder. There were no folders on the formatted sd card) evidently this was not correct as it didnt work.
2: I flashed from bootloader screen with the stock rom, but it loads to the cottulla HTC screen and stays on 0%!
please help as I am desperate to go back to 6.5 lol
I can no longer get android to run on my HD2. Here are the details to my problem. Please I really need help, will make it well worth the while of anyone that can sort this problem out for me.
First off, I had been running android on my device for about a month. Then it started just going off and freezing at the android boot logo. Nothing I did would work unless I reinstall the rom.
Then that just stopped working and even after reinstalling a rom (nand) it would never get past the android boot logo after the go go go screen. It would just stay there then restart and the restart loop continues.
I have tried
- task 29
- flashing an official stock rom
- trying different radios even though the one in my sig worked with android just fine
- reflashing HSPL 2.08, MAGLDR and recovery
- formatting my SD cards (over and over again)
- trying different roms....etc
Nothing works. And I have lost count of how many times I have gone through all this.
Please take note that I did have android running on my EU HD2 with the HSPL, radio and rom in my sig on this very phone so I at least know what I am doing.
I just dont get this issue, cause windows mobile runs just fine on my device every single time. My cards read fine too. And even when trying to run an SD rom build, after haret starts up it cuts to the HTC logo and just hangs there too. And I am assuming that if it was my battery or my battery pins it would at least affect the phone generally and not only when trying to boot android.
Please, I really need help as this phone is practically useless to me now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried running a CLK build or just MAGLDR or SD builds?
As far as i know (sorry if this is nonsense ) the HD2 runs natively on ppp not on rmnet, magldr (and sd?) pushes something in the radio so that rmnet can be used, maybe something in that direction went wrong with your phone?

Well I have only been trying MAGLDR and SD roms but never CLK. Guess I can give that a shot. But assuming something weird is going on with my radio, shouldn't it have fixed itself considering the amount of radios I have used and the amount of task 29s I have done?
Thanks for the suggestion though, will give that a go today.

Well before i get flamed by those who know better, i would ask you to look for threads covering this topic, i.e. the difference between ppp and rmnet and which one is used with which one etc.
I have read in another forum that the hd2 runs natively with ppp, but magldr pushes something "in" the radio rom while booting, so the radio looks like a desire, so the android builds can run on rmnet...
Or something like that, what i have gathered from this is, that there is a difference and since it sounded like you were running out of options, i thought i´d propose installing a clk build

Can you elaborate "formatting my SD cards" a little?
As in how, which tools, were was the partitioning done if any?

Hi,
Sometimes boot loops occur when the battery pins are out of shape.
Make sure all your battery pins are aligned and see if that helps.

Ok, i have a total of 3 SD cards. One 16GB, one 4GB and the last one 2GB. I have used both gParted and partition wizard. Did full 30 mins (approx) wipes on the cards and had them formatted to fat32. For the 16GB card I try that with the ext3/4 partions. Tried using both 4kB and 32KB cluster sizes.
And again, I had actually got android running on my phone before. And even tried different roms at that time so I have some idea what I am doing. I don't have any issues reading my cards either from a card reader or through the phone.

Yeah read about that, I have tried straightening my pins and all that but nothing changes. And I would think that if the pins are the issue then I would at least hav some issues running windows mobile 6.5 too. I have never had such issues running WM ever. Android on the other hand just refuses to run.

Hi,
The only thing I can think of is maybe some corrupt software along the way.
May I suggest using KSUBEDI's TOOLKIT (Don't forget to thank him).
Run through the whole process using his toolkit.
It worked for me.
Start from
HSPL 2.08 HSPL
Task 29

Magldr

Just did all that (again). And exactly in that order. As always, it installs just fine but it always hangs on the android logo right after the go go go screen for about 20-30 secs then it restarts. Over and over again.

Didn´t mean to let it sound like you don´t know what you´re doing, just trying to narrow it down and the sd cards can be the culprit for so many bugs, so it was worth a shot

Especially the NAND partition used in flash.cfg would be interesting, maybe there´s something wrong with that, that would be consistent with the failure to boot, wouldn´t it?
Other than that, i have to admit, slowly but surely this leaves my area "of expertise"
I sure hope you get your phone running again! I´ll keep my fingers crossed!

I am installing HyperDroidGBX-v12[GRI54-2.3.3][a2sd+][TytR8.3] and using the required 150mb partition size. I had got this very rom and RAFDROID rom (though with a 400mb partition) to work on my phone previously.
I also got the a couple of SD based roms to work on my device before nand roms became available now even those dont work too.
Just tried CLK for the first time and flashed the CLK version of the aforementioned rom. Been on the white HTC screen for about 10mins now.

Trust me, no offense taken what so ever .
I am aware that SD card errors could be the issue, but all three SD cards? even stranger since I have never used 2 of those 3 for any android install.
What really puzzles me though is that regardless of whatever issues i seem to be having... windows mobile runs just fine every single time. My only guess now may be that teher may be something wrong on the hardware side with how my SD card and phone syncs so something always goes wrong during the install. If that is the case the only possible solution would be if it was some how possible to install a rom directly from my PC without using an Sd card at all.

Hi,
That would mean making a DAF.exe file and install it the old fashioned way.
Sadly,beyond my level of expertise.
Good luck.

Sorry but i am at a loss for any further possible advice for you. I would propose the build i am using for you to install.
It installs with the according daf.exe and after that you can install the zip file via cwm. I never flashed another android build myself, what with all this nand partitioning (i have heard of it, but never had to set it up myself), so i don´t really know how the nand partitioning is done without daf.exe and the according flash.cfg file.

Hi,
Just before you bin it,how have you been formatting the sd card?
Have a look at this:
"You should also properly format your sdcard with Panasonic SDFormatter (Full+Overwrite+size adjust). Then in recovery>advanced>sd partition (1GB+0MB swap) If you have a EU HD2 and need the extra data storage/rom requires it. "
Worth a shot.
Dont give up!
Might be a long shot, But have you tried turning off your antivirus software during the installation? Ive seen a few of your posts about and i hope you get it to work again. Bet your sick of the sight of task29 lol

yeah I have tried that too. Still leaves me hanging at the android logo right after the go go go screen. Truth is that I have come to the conclusion that nothing i am doing will actually work. Cause all these things mentioned now I have already done and didn't even need to do half of them at one point when i was actually running android on my phone.
The fact that I cant even run the SD card builds of android just goes to show that something must be very wrong with my phone now. It could be battery related or something but that doesn't make sense either cause WinMO 6.5 roms work fine every singel time.
I just dont get it really.

Lol.... you have no idea lol
Its sad no doubt, but I am actually happy for the amount of help offered by a lot of ppl here in the xda community.
So at least I am taking it all in good spirits. Oh, I have probably tried that at one point too....
The only thing I can think of now is to flash my HSPL back to spl 1.66 and revert back to factory setting, then try and reflsah the 2.08 HSPL. Though I dont know what difference taht will make considering how many times i have reflsahed the very same 2.08 HSPL so at least i know I have a clean fresh one on my phone now lol.
Hey guys, I need some help with my shiny new brick. So I had android running on the phone from nand. So one day while using it, I decided to clear my information from it within android (Settings>Privacy>Factory Data reset). Anyway, this completely F'd my phone. So what I did was try to install a new nand android rom, but that did'nt work either. So then I said let me go back to windows mobile. THAT WONT WORK EITHER!!!
Where I am now:
HSPL installation is successful when I try it (spl version 2.0.8)
Windows mobile stock 6.5 gets stuck at 8%
Task 29% gets stuck at 0%
flashing any rom from the sd card doesnt work either
I feel like I've tried every approach, to no avail. I've read over every thread known to man with this problem, no answer. They all say either task 29 or flash the stock rom, neither of which are working here.
Currently the phone gets stuck on the Stick together screen, then just resets again.
Any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Question... was it a recovery zip or direct nand rom?
Try reformatting the SD card fat32 from the computer, write a fresh image file to it and try to flash from SD again. I don't know why but if I don't reformat the SD card each time, my HD2 never takes a flash. It might not work for you, but it's worth a try. I hope it helps.
hi all
i have a HTC hd2 leo i have followed a tutorial to put android on the nand and to be honest i think ive cocked it right up.
i upgraded the sp and the radio as it said then installed magldr and put the rom of choice on the sd to boot to the nand.
i whent to boot and nothing happened i keep getting error i then somehow managed to wipe all the info so now im left with the magldr and i dont know what to do next to recover it back to windows so i can start again.
can anyone help?
is there somewhere i can send the phone to to have it done?
i dont want to mess it up anymore.
all help for a really new noob is greatly appreciated.

Your device is fine.
First decide what rom you want on your device, then use HD2 Toolkit to "Repartition" your device for that rom.
Once you ahve done that simply put that rom on your SD card and flash after booting into recovery via magldr menu.
