Got a HD2. Now im confused

Hey guys,
today i got me a HD2. Bought it on ebay and now i want to flash NAND Android on it.
Im a bit confused. the HD2 is running WMo right now and i want to have it running Cyanogenmod.
do i get that order right?
1.) Flash HardSPL 2.08
2.) Flash Radio 2.08xx
3.) Flash Magldr 1.12
4.) Flash Clockworkmod
5.) Flash Cyanogenmod
ive read that i have to have hardspl 1.42.0000 before flashing 2.08.
How can i check that?
on the one hand ive read that i need to install the drivers via windows update but ive also read that i need to install activesync??
which is the right Radio for me? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787) i have a German O2 512mb HD2
thanks for your help

First you need to make sure that there is a fully charged battery (it doesn't have to be but it helps).
Boot up into Bootloader mode (press and hold the Volume Down button then tap the Power button). You will see a four colour screen with the word 'Serial' at the bottom. On the screen you wil see SPL. As long as it is not 3.03 then you don't have to flash a non 3.14 ROM.
Now connect to your PC (you don't need activesync of WMDC, especially if you are going to run it as an Android phone). The 'Serail' will change to 'USB'. Run HSPL2 and select 2.08.HSPL
The phone will reboot. Again switch it on in Bootloader mode and connect to your computer. Download the 2.15.50 RADIO and run it (just tick the box about activesync).
Now you are ready to start the Android ROM flashing.

If you're using XP I suggest downloading ActiveSync because if you don't when you're running the DAF.exe file when flashing you'll keep getting this "DAPI.dll" error. That's only if you're using Windows XP though.

Rom Flashing Help

So, I have installed HSPL 2.08. I flashed ChuckyDroid and it worked fine but I wanted more. So I flashed an Omega rom and it was cool but now I want to Flash Magldr1.3 and try wm7 or a nand android. The problem I am having is, when I start to flash the new rom, I get the HTC screen and 0% and it stays there forever. I end up pulling the battery and resetting the phone. I first tried with Mgldr then a few other wm6.5 roms with the same problem. Why can't I flash roms anymore?
I searched the thread and had no luck. I apologize in advance ir this has been covered before.

Try to flash stock Rom from tricolor or even from Your microSD card. And then hspl, magldr etc.

How about this way.
Assuming you still can reach Boot Loader and You still have SPL 2.08 HSPL installed.
Go into bootloader screen and connect your phone using usb, and let the word: "serial" in the below of phone (the white color bar) changed to: "USB". If you fails, retry it using different ports, and dont forget to turn off your antivirus, firewall and internet connection, or even your screen saver.
While in bootloader, do "task 29", flash radio 2.15.xxx, install magldr 1.13 (all in sequence).
Assuming you succeed it. Now, we go into flashing NAND WP7 (or NAND Android).
Assuming that you already have NAND WP7 (or NAND ANDROID).
Go into magldr screen, you know how to do it right?
There, select option 5 (USB Flasher) and confirm it by pressing the phone call (green) button and connect your phone using usb to pc.
Run your NAND WP7 (or NAND ANDROID) rom.
Finish.
Good luck

Is this HD2 screwed?

Okay guys, am I screwed?
I tried putting android on this HD2.
I successfully installed HSPL 2.08 HSPL (So NO 2.08.0000)
Then I tried installing MAGLDR 1.13, just by executing the ROMUtilityUpdater.exe.
Clicked the first checkbox, then the 2nd, and then that 'Update' thingy.
It was going to updating from 1.72.XXXXX to 2.00.0.000 (or something)
I had it connected through Activesync (WinXP).
It was ready in 30seconds, instead of the normal 10 minutes.
Now it just hangs on the White HTC bootscreen.
I tried doing a Task29, but in the RGB Bootloader (USB connected) screen it won't connect to ActiveSync. I Ran it anyway, but still no Windows or MAGLDR.
Do I need to install a different Radio? If so how do I do that and where can I find it?
I am downloading a stock WinMo 6.5 Rom (vodafone branded, from HTC.com)
Thanks for all the help in advance!

had simillar problem. I would just install the latest Windows ROM 3.03 but thru SD card (Download official 3.03 ROM for Your phone, extract it, change the nbh file name to LEOIMG, put it on Your SD card, Switch the phone on holding volume button down, and then go with the instructions on the screen) cuz it changes Your SPL, then install HSPL 4. After that install CLK and CLOCKWORK and then NAND Your device with clk version android.
Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021837 if You dont know how to install clK. It is a bit complicated but if You are a bit computer literate You should be ok.

Okay, thanks!
I installed a stock vodafone rom, it is booting now!
so where do i find 2.15 pesky radio 2.15 rom?
I installed HSPL using HSPL in the first place

Have you tried flashing a stock ROM from the SD card? The procedure is outlined here, it doesn't seem too hard. Since you can't connect in MAGLDR use an SD card reader to copy the stuff across.

why no recovery; recovery in magldr 1.13 is stored in nand.So you can go magldr--->ad recovery and run recovery.then wipe all userdata and see if your rom starts again working ok

Well, you say it doesn't connect to the PC but what about in MAGLDR? As in the USB flasher? If it does, just flash a new version of CWM (probably through the NAND Toolkit).
If that doesn't work, try a stock ROM from the SD Card and start over.

I was trying to use the USB Flasher earlier and the installation would fail halfway through with various errors.. Tried with 4 different roms.. So decided to do a stock rom from sdcard .. tried a WWE and got an error 28002...couldnt get into magldr even now... Anyways got Task29 ..booted in the red yellow green screen and doing a wipe+hspl+magldr+recovery. As of now it stuck on 0% at the wipe process but it does say 10 minutes for flashing and its been only 2. Lets see.....

Ok the situation as of now is this... Tried installing a stock rom which gave me spl 3.03 ... Magldr no longer working. Task 29 fails to install anything. Trying to install a stock ruu.exe from the rgb screen tells me that the update utility cannot be used for my phone.
Any ideas??

So now in the bootloader it says that you have SPL3.03 rather than HSPL 2.08 right? In that case, maybe try reflashing HSPL then MAGLDR etc. because these won't flash unless you have HSPL. I assume that your main aim is to go back to Android after you've sorted this out anyway.

The way I see it - get HD2 toolkit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783
Install HSPL 2.08 like Nigeldg said and flash magldr or clk anew. I personally use clk 1.5 and it's childlishly easy to use and I had absolutely no prolems. I attached a zipped .nbh file you can flash after HSPL from HD2 toolkit. It's a new clk with recovery. It's obviously not mine, but I can't remember the thread I got it from (I keeep it just in case since downloaded). You can repartition from your phone then and install whatever ROM you need from recovery. The only problem can be flashing HSPL - if this doesn't go well you'd have to do it from SD like someone suggested.

Yeah don't use the HD2 toolkit, go to the HSPL thread and download the HSPL4 package from there. Just select HSPL2.08 and flash it. The toolkit uses the older HSPL3 package if I'm not mistaken.

[Q] Can't install Android

Hello guys... So I had one android rom on my phone and wanted to install other... So I downloaded 3.14.482.2(Greek Version), extracted the files, copied RUU_signed on my formatted sd card (fat32), renamed it to leoimg, insert sd card to my phone and did all the instuctions... After successfully restoration I go to the red green blue screen, connected pc and phone with usb and when "Serial" changed to "USB" I run the HSPL4 and installed the 2.08 non-H version... Now when I try to use task 29 it's stuck on 0% I tried the hd2toolkit task29, the doloop task29, the task 29 with 2.15.50.14 but all stuck at 0%... I tried to skip it and continue without I can't install nothing all stuck at 0%... Please help...

There was no need to restore windows just to flash a new Android rom, a huge waste of time.
You say you set 2.08 non h version,, ,,,,,, the non h version is stock and won't allow any of the flashing you need,that's why everything fails at 0%.
Run hspl4,choose 2.08.hspl and try again.

samsamuel thank you it worked... but I read somewhere that android and wp7 support 2.08 only... And how else i can install new rom?
