I would get another ROM and reflash it, whether it's a ZIP ROM (CWM) or a NAND ROM via DFT.

it would be awsome if you could send me a link to a good rom? android or windows? realy need this to work

Well there's lots of good roms out there... they are all very easy to flash back and forth from. I hate to say which one is "better" than another as that is purely subjective and everyone has a differing opinion. However, it seems a lot of people really like Sergios, MDJ's and CMYXLGO's ROMs. As a start you may want to check out one of those... Here is a link to the main Android NAND forum.

I have
•HSPL3 ~ SPL-2.08.HSPL
•Radio that support 576 RAM
•DFT MAGLDR Bootloader
•ClockworkMod Recovery
Installed.
Can you send a link to a rom that supports clockwork? i dont realy care witch one just one that works. am e newbie in this just got the phone yesterday, and now i kinda afraid i cant fix it :/ :/

If it turns on and will boot to the bootloader, it's fixable So don't worry that much! Try out Sergio's ROM. It supports CWM. If you do use that one be sure to back up your SD card as you have to repartition it.
The steps to install it are:
Code:
HD2 COREDROID Desire HD V1
1. Extract downloaded zip to a folder of your choice
2. Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz and zImage) to the root of your sd card
3. Boot into magldr and select USB Flasher option while phone is connected to PC
4. Run DAF.exe included in the zip and follow onscreen instructions.
5. After complete devise will reboot in magldr chose "Boot AD SD" option
6. Device will boot into Clockwork Recovery
7. Select advanced
8. Select Partition SD card (remember too backup all valuable data you have on SD Card)
9. Selet (minimum 512M)(maximum 1024M) Chose what fits best for you Recomended size 1024M
10.Select Swap 0M
11.Wait for the process too finish (do not restart device stay in ClockWork recovery)
12.Connect the Device into USB
13.select mounts and storage
14.select mount USB storage
15.Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz, zImage) to the root of your sd card
16.Copy CoreDroid_HD_HD2_v*.zip to the root of your sd card
17.Press back key after finish
18.Press back key once more
19.Select install zip from sdcard
20.Select choose zip from sdcard
21.Select CoreDroid_HD_HD2_v* file and then confirm
22.Wait for it too finish
23.After flash options pop up again Press back Key
24.select reboot system now
25.Let it boot wait about +-10Min Enjoy

I haven't really examined the guide you followed that much, but make sure you have installed a recent version of Magldr (i.e. the one you can download in the official Magldr thread in the WinMo subforum, version 1.11 to be precise). The first version(s) have been notorious for the Gogogo! bug persistently affecting some users.
Just a fyi, ignore this if you already have this v1.11

I got the aMagldr V1.11
The rom you sendt me doesnt work, it stopps here:
Run DAF.exe included in the zip and follow onscreen instructions.
i allredy installed a Daf.exe can that be the problem?

No, because it's not really an installer, but a flasher. I'm not really an expert on the CWM issues, but it seems to me like formatting your SD card(do a full format, not the quick one) might help you, since it's quite probably your SD card being the *****.
It may not help you, but if you've got a few minutes I'd say give it a shot. Don't forget to backup important SD (NAND isn't affected) first of course!
Oh, and there's also this small chance that your CWM download is corrupt. Not sure if that would give the gogogo error though.

Sorry for being a complete newb, but how do i do the hard format?
but do i need the DAF.exe to install the rom?

You'd have to format in Windows (which I assume is the OS you're running), which now that I think of it may be a bit of a problem. I don't think you can mount your SD card with Magldr, which means that you'd have to use an external card reader. If you don't have that, you'd have to reflash WinMo to format, but since that's quite some more work for something that I can't even guarantee to be a solution you might wanna hold on to other suggestions.
DAF.exe is the tool which flashes CWM to your phone. Some other tools and/or ROMS use the same name for their flasher though.

after this one :
8. Select Partition SD card (remember too backup all valuable data you have on SD Card)
9. Selet (minimum 512M)(maximum 1024M) Chose what fits best for you Recomended size 1024M
10.Select Swap 0M
i can't do **** i cant open the device in windows. is there no way i can just system recover the whole device? or do i have to rom it?..
realy need this to be working, prefer android but windows is okey

It sure is no brick, as long as you can boot into bootloader (turn on phone while keeping volume down pressed) there's no problem at all. No need to return it either.
If you feel really desperate try the WinMo thing, you've got nothing to lose except for about 30 minutes of your time.

winmo thing? is there any guide?
if i download a format program i can format the sd card..

1. Flash WinMo, this should be no problem in bootloader
2. I think it's possible to format your SD card within WinMo. I've never used WinMo actually so I can't give instructions on that.
If you can't find it or if it isn't possible, mount your SD card so you can see it in Windows. Backup data if necessary. Then right click on it (in Windows), and choose format, then disable quick format which should be selected by default. After the format you should have a clean SD card.
4. Flash Magldr again, following instructions in the official Magldr thread. Download a new copy off xda, to eliminate the possibity of just having had a corrupt download.
6. Flash CWM, following instructions in the official CWM thread.
7. Flash ROM.
Edit: I used WinMo where I meant the mobile OS, and Windows where I meant the pc OS.

I did format the SD card, nothing new just that CWM disapeard.
Now its loading with aMagldr v1.11
And i Have Spl-2.08. Hspl 8g Xe
Can anyone send me a link to a good Win 6.5 rom and anykind of guide?

[Q] how to install android 2.3

Hello XDA Gods of Software,
I tried to install the 2.3 android on my phone but I can't find info for how to do that. I flashed my HD2 with stock rom. And I am stuck on installing the MAGLDR 1.12.

1. Reflash Radio .. I recommend the 2.15.50.14 Radio If you have a T-Mobile 1024
2. TASK29 Phone .. this will Clear / Erase The Rom
3. Reflash MAGLDR And ClockworkMod Recovery in that order!
4. FORMAT SD CARD! FULL WIPE and FORMAT .. I use Panasonic SD Formatter
5. COPY Android Rom ZIP USING SD CARD READER! .. If you dont have one BUY One!
Do Not Use MAGLDR And ClockworkMod Recovery to Copy Rom Zip To SD CARD!
IF AFTER YOU HAVE DONE ALL OF THIS AND IT STILL FAILS .. TRY A NEW SD CARD!
I Have Seen Many Times Its a Bad SD Card!
All Programs & Everything you need is in this thread!

There is a good video on youtube that I used to install HyperdroidGbx, which is android 2.3.3.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71WDYfDg4sA
See if that helps...it shows magldr, cwm and rom install.....

[Q] formatted sd card, now won't work with wp7

I had setup wp7 to work with the sd-card, partitioned it for dual-boot with android.
Android was booting from the card, but it couldn't mount it so I (stupidly) used the sd-formatter.
It deleted all the partitions.
Well I booted wp7 to start setting up the card again, but wp7 just tells me to get lost as the card is now non-compliant.
Great!
Formatted the card with windows, still non-compliant.
Any ideas?

you must do hard reset or flash WP7 again....
simply, you deleted WP7 memory and WP7 cant boot without.... with hard reset or new setup after flashing, he create partition and memory again....

Yeah, did it all over again, working now. Dual booting is fine now.
I had no idea that wp7 is so *****y about sd-cards :|

Hate to ask but could you elaborate on the steps you went through to flash wp7 and get the sd card to work?
If I remove my SD card or replace it with an identical card that is formated, it prevents my phone from booting up. I get the same message.
I've read the forums and they talk about task29, flash with 6.5, etc. Just trying to find a concise simplified method that won't leave me without a phone.
Thanks

only hard reset is needed when replace SDcard... flashing new ROM is only if you want upgrade with newer version...

**sigh**
this happened to me a few times already already & had to install WP7 all over again. BUT now I have another 16gb card & make an image file just in case
BTW how is the Hard reset done, in magLDR?
@vgsandman
this is what I did again, last night.
- Task 29
- Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14
- Magldr
- Service
- Clear SD MBR
- uselast24NAND
- USB Flaser
- Flash WP (some ROM will install in this method w/o Wmo)
....... Part error.......
.........error...........
Pdaimatejam rom gave this error, i guess it needed Wmo???
REDO again!
- Task 29
- Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14
- MagLDR
- MagLDR Repartition 300/ 45
- Magldr
- Service
- Clear SD MBR
- uselast24NAND
- USB Flaser
- Flash WP
- Done!
I also dual boot & i sometimes make a booboo when adjusting the partition so now the card wont work & do things all over again.
hth

That's why I don't use dual system.It's hard and troublesome when you upgrade.

Now that I know the basics, it's not a problem. SD android is super easy to handle, wp7, well, I'll see.

Well it is not that hard.
Windows Phone 7 is using the SD as his Internal Memory.
If you check your settings and you do not change anything with the partitions.
You see that the Internal Memory is the exact amount of space of your SD Card.
So it is very logical that, when you format your SD card, you will loose your partition and WP7.
Also what I don't understand is.
When your phone is already that far with MAGLDR and Radio. (cause you did it once already) Why should you start over again?
It is very simple, just do the following:
When phone boot in MAGLDR use:
* 10. Services, 4. UseLast24NAND
* 10. Services, 5. ClearSD MDR
After that:
when HSPL and/or MAGLDR already installed.
Also if Pdaimatejam or CTRLPDA or HD2O ROM already installed,
you can skip all steps before step 2.
- when you turn on phone press and hold power button to boot direct to MAGLDR:
* go to 5. USB Flasher and run ENG_DWI.exe to flash ROM
(or EN_DWI.exe or TR_DWI.exe. ENG is installer in English, TR is Turkish)
- after flashing process done, and when show Main screen with Tiles,
do hard reset (Settings - About - reset my phone)
- run Connection Setup, with OK complete configuration and soft reset (restart) phone
- you are done... ignore next steps
Thats it!

OK so if the splash screen from WP7 shows the SD card error we can just go directly to
magldr
* 10. Services, 4. UseLast24NAND
* 10. Services, 5. ClearSD MDR
flash WP7 again? I thought we needed to clear the Nand again to be able to install the ROM again.

Well I never did that, and i can't remember that I cleared NAND from Android.
Cause I came from Android.
Also when I was upgrading my rom from PDA.... 7.5 to 7.7 I did not cleared anything with the cache or NAND.
They did not notified me that I needed to do this, not even in my instruction manuall.
If you want to, I can share you the link?

Please do so Mr-Dutch
thanks

[Q] bricked phone? cLK screen only with messages?

Hi,
I am not very experienced with android installation and after trying few times now the phone is maybe bricked?
I only have cLK black screen with some lines of text (such as MsDOS prompt).
How can I fix it?
I would like to install either Windows 7 or Android 4.04.

The screen you see with the text is just clk it self. Because you do not have a ROM for clk to boot you are seeing this screen. Click on the HD2 guid in my link and it will walk you through how to instll Clockwork Mod Recovery so you can flash a ROM. Or ypou can use the HD2 NAND Toolkit to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery. Or you can also just download the latest version of clk that is also linked in my guide also as it already has Clockwork Mod Recovery included with it.

Thanks for help and info.
I guess this is the link you are referring to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021837
?
There are so many options, I have no idea where to start? What is the most simple solution? And how do I put Android on it?
Also, I am not sure if my battery is about 30% full, is it possible to charge it before I proceed. The red light does not come on.
Thanks

Hi
If you want to change your ROM with one another like Android NAND ROM or Windows 6.5 ROM, then use this steps.
For NAND Android ROM; You must flollow this sequence;
first check your device if it is 2.08.HSPL, and format your sdcard ext3 or ext4 and 1gb primary (which one you must use is pointed out by your Android chief). Copy new Android ROM into your sdcard's FAT32 (it must be primary again) section. insert it into your HTC device.
1. do task29
2. install radio rom 2.15.50.14
3. install magldr 1.13
4. do recovery 5.0.2.6
5. do clear cache and dalvik cache.
6. Choose your android ROM .zip file on sdcard, load and enjoy...
For Windows 6.5 Follow this sequence;
Choose a proper win 6.5 ROM for you and, check your device if it is 2.08.HSPL, Format your sdcard like FAT 32 primary partition. insert it into your HTC device.
1. do Task29
2. Install Radio ROM 2.15.50.14
3. Run LeoCustomRUU.exe like "Run as Administrator" which Windows 6.5 rom you chose to use.
HD2Toolkit ; it contains Task29, Magldr, Recovery, Clk and HSPL tools.
www.mediafire.com/?2qz0xa7xfxney47
Radio ROM 2.15.50.14;
www.mediafire.com/?1th8o158r2t6dba
Or more simple one
-Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from an original win 6.5 ROM and copy it to your SD card.
- Rename to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset your device while pressing the volume down button.
regards...

Sorry guys, it sounds to complicated to me.
How do I format those partitions?
Any software?
do I do it from PC?
my phone is not working at present
I would like to install latest android though.

Which Android ROM do you have in hand? Did you look for any android ROM, or which one do you want?
Some steps depends on your ROM which you have chosen.
I am still using an old Android ROM. You must choose a ROM firstly.

First off all the SD card partitioning is not needed to get Android running on your HD2. No offense to powerofthink but they are making this way more complicated than it has to be. The only real thing you need to be sure of is that your SD card is formatted with Fat 32, But most SD cards come formatted this way.
Now download clk 1.5 by Rick_1995, from his clk thread. This version already has Clockwork Mod Recovery included in it so you will have CWM when you flash this file. You flash it just like you flashed the other versionn of clk you flashed before.
Next download the ROM of your choice. Then boot into CWM by holding down the home button while you boot your HD2 up. When you see CWM appear on the screen use the volume buttons to scroll down to "Mounts and storage" and press the send button. Next connect your device to your computer via USB cable and then scroll down to "-mount USB storage" and press the send button. This will allow you to transfer your ROM's .zip file to your SD card by allowing your computer to mount your SD card as a removable. Go to the Windows Start Menu and click on computer and you should see your SD card listed as a removable drive, click on it then copy and past your ROM .zip file to your SD card. Once you have your ROM transferred to your SD card go back to your device and go back to the main menu of CWM by pressing the back button on your device. This will on mount your SD card from your computer. Next scroll down to "-install zip from sdcard" in the main menu of CWM and press the send buttonn. Then scroll down to "-choose zip from sdcard" and press the send button. Now scroll down until you see the .zip file for your ROM and select it by pressing the send button. Select yes in the next menu and let the ROM install. After the ROM is done installing use the back button to go back to the main menu of CWM and select reboot now. Then just let yopur device boot all the way up to the lock screen of the ROM and unlock it and go through the setup.
It is no need to partion when you use clk because clk does all the partitioning for you, unlike MAGLDR which you have to manually re partition manually when you change ROMs.

well I would like to install latest 4.04 ice cream sandwich, but modded for speed if possible?
my card is formatted in fat32 8gig.
Any links for that sort of ROM including procedure for beginners?
I am even more confused now
cheers

I can not do anything.
When I try to either use MAGLDR or cLK, phone responds more and less, but when it comes to progress bar it stays at 0% all the time regardless what procedure I want to do.
e.g.
Starting To Perform MAGLDR Installation
Setting Up Environment for MAGLDR
Starting Installation in 3
Starting Installation in 2
Starting Installation in 1
Checking phone for information!
Starting MAGLDR Installation, Check progress on Phone screen.
Is it a problem that I have cLK installed from before, in cLK progress is also at 0%.
I tried to use official Windows ROM 6.5 from HTC page but does not work too.
Did I brick the phone?

How to flash Android

Hey guys! I'm hoping this is the right section for my kind of question. My brothers got a HD2 and now he wants to have Android on it!
It would be great if you could tell me which steps i have to do? Im not a noob in things like rooting, flashing etc. but its a bit confusing to upgrade from windows mobile to android, so i would really appreciate if u could help me
here are some software information about the phone, perhaps it helps you:
systemversion: 5.2.21913 (21913.5.0.94)
manila version: 2.5.20181527.1
rom-version: 3.14.162.5 (04666) GER
rom-date: 12/15/10
oh and it seems to have a vodafone branding!
Oh guys im hoping for ur help

amazing that you didn't spot any of the many many places this info is written down, , but here it is again
the radio is fine, so you can ignore all mention of that
get hspl4
get magldr
get the nand toolkit
choose your rom - make sure you read the first post to find out what system partition size it requires (example used here is 150meg,, just replace 150 with whatever your chosen rom requires)
into bootloader
connect usb
run hspl4.exe - choose 2.08.hspl
back into bootloader
usb
nand toolkit - install magldr
phone will reboot and magldr menu will appear, , if it doesn't, you forgot to choose 2.08.hspl
in magldr menu - usb flasher
in nand toolkit on left choose 150 (if the size you need isn't listed choose custom)
in cache box below system box (it probably says 45) you can change that to 5 (not critical)
when ready click repartition (bottom left of nand toolkit)
clockworkmod is now installed, and the nand is partitioned
reboot, magldr will appear - choose 8 - ad recovery - cwm will now load
(create an ext partition on the sd here if you want one - cwm - advanced - partition sd card - backup first tho, the whole card will be wiped)
when ready, copy the romyouchose.zip to teh sd card, then in cwm choose 'instal zip from sd - choose zip' and select the romyouchose.zip,
thats it.
