If your volume buttons are broke you definitely should switch to cLK with touch recovery and you'll never have to worry about it again since you use the home button long press while rebooting to go into recovery, and in cLK you can use quick boot app or rom manager or power menu to reboot into recovery. Is super easy to install with the hd2 toolkit.

Hmm try plugging it into your computer and try flashing im not sure but on winmo the RUU would automatically put it into bootloader

Only works under winmo, requires winmo drivers to be active, which isn't the case when android is running.
@op, your solution is to fix the volume keys.

can they be hard wired ?

Sorry, no clue, never had one apart. Perhaps you could dismantle it, make the connection long enough to flash? Be warned though, many people end up breaking more, the hd2 is not easy to take apart without damage.

Well the touch recovry works with magldr too, you don't meed clk for that, but you still won't be able to use recovery.
Have you tried the htc hd2 nand toolkit? i think i heard it has an "express mode" where it install everything without you doing anything, so maybe you won't need the buttons?!
Worth a try i'm guessing.
Good luck

my bad, thats not what i meant, sorry. i meant the touch recovery works on magldr too, you don't need clk to get touch-recovery, but you won't be able to get past magldr itself in order to get to recover (sorry, english isn't my primary language, i hope you know what i mean). have you tried the nand toolkit?

am i able to go back to windows mobile ?

sorry, cant tell you anything about winmo, haven't used it since first android built came out (a year ago?), hope you'll find the help you're looking for

ok thanks.
does anyone know if i can get windows back on the hd2 with the volume buttons working ?

update...
i stripped the phone down and got a screwdriver on the torn volume button and have navigated to recovery..
now does clk support rom manager from the market place as with that can i select to boot up to recovery and bootloader ?
or is that not possible ?

Yes and no! You can use Rom manager to boot into recovery but not into bootloader since it doesn't have an android bootloader Rom manager won't find it. If you were able to rigg the buttons while the phone is apart, I suggest make sure you have plenty of battery and reboot while pressing the volume down and when you see the tricolor screen, keep it there, plug it into the pc and open the hd2 toolkit and install cLK and then I would suggest to put the touch recovery img file into the toolkit so you can flash it while setting it up, there should be instructions in the touch recovery thread on how to add the recovery.img to the toolkit.

Stuck on "Go Go Go"

Hey guys, I've managed to install MAGLDR on my HD2, and I have tried to install CWM.
First I tried v1.3 and everything went OK till i got stuck on the "Go Go Go" screen.
Then I tried v1.2 using my SD card, but i still end up with the same problem.
The thing is I don't have any ROM installed on my HD2 so I can't do anything more !
Would greatly appreciate your help =)
do you use MAGLDR 1.13?
did you try and reinstall your ROM?
Do you use a compatible radio?
Yep I'm on 1.13
I can't do much more, my HD2 won't even boot into the bootloader ! I'm basically stuck on MAGLDR with no ROM and no ability to install back a standard windows ROM

I followed the steps carefully, so it should be OK but how can I be sure ?
Make sure your battery pins aren't loose. Push them back with your finger and try again.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Tried about everything I could hardware-wise without tearing it apart... unfortunately the battery pins don't change anything.
Quite a few members seem to be facing the same problem recently: no access to the bootloader, stuck on MALDR... wonder what's the problem.
The only thing I can do is run WP7 on it, which is not very usable.
i made this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945427
maybe it helps?
Thanks yz.hd but I can't get to the bootloader (volume down + power only brings me to MAGLDR), nor CWM...
It's not possible to only be able to get to MAGLDR and not bootloader I don't think. Just hold down the volume button and then power on while still holding down the power button and see what happens. I had a problem like that where my HD2 would get stuck at "1234" and then stopped and rebooted. The battery pins where the cause.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I've tried loads of times, the combo volume down + power really doesn't bring anything up, no matter which way I put it... a complete mystery !
So you've tried to install CWM? Did it work or not? Are you able to go to the USB flasher in Magldr? And install it again, try to see if the AD Recovery works?
Yep, I tried again, the USB flasher works perfectly fine, CWM installs perfectly. But when I go to Ad recovery, it still stays on "Go Go Go!".
Same thing if i install CWM via my SD card
Try formatting SD card (you will lose your data). Try again.
How long does it hang?
If that doesn't work, try to install a DAF rom, and see what happens.
you probably don't have the 'copy to sd' folder in the root of your sd?

What do you mean by a DAF Rom ? One that is directly bootable from MAGLDR ? I have tried a WP7 rom which works ok. But I still can't install a bootloader to bring it back to WP 6.5 and start the process all over again to install CWM...
@DKxda: is it necessary to have a folder ? I copied the two files directly in the root of my SD.
DAF rom is a rom that doesn't use CWM to run (directly from magldr).
Nope I'm still stuck on Go Go Go if I want to install a DAF Android ROM (no problem with WP7 ROMs though)...
Sorry mate, I'm out of options you could try (well, install CLK, but you need the bootloader for that...)
Hope someone else will help you fix this!
Edit: When does it get stuck at go go go? Immediately at boot or after selecting Boot AD Nand?
You can try to ask it in the Magldr Thread, cause it seems like a Magldr problem to me...

Well, since yesterday I'm getting a similar issue!
Stuck at go go go or just after on the boot screen which is completely messed I get the top 1/4 screen ok, the rest is bad lines, then the bottom half is dark.
Yesterday I tried installing a CM7 build for my HD2... stuck at Android logo...
So I reflashed CWM Recovery 400Mb partition ok, restored my last backup and rebooted... Now I have this issue all the time!
Tried my many backups, reflashing CWM Recovery a couple of times, factory reset from CWM or MAGLDR...
Nothing will do!
Is my HD2 dead or what????

[Q] Have a big problem please help

So I broke the digitizer on my HD2 and I replaced it well I ripped off the volume controls because I wasn't paying enough attention so now I am screwed because I flashed a custom rom to the phone and then I installed magldr.
Now my phone only will boot into magldr and I cannot select anything or flash anything else because I cannot scroll using the volume keys..
The cheapest I can find the part to fix my volume is $60 and I do not have it... So I am trying to figure out if there is a way I can get magldr off the phone so that it will boot back into windows it should still be there I just cant boot to it...
The other option is can I put android or windows on an sd and will magldr boot it because when it starts it gives an error about not being able to boot off the sd because i dont have a card in there...
I have searched and read and I can't find a solution for this because my volume button does not work that is really screwing me but I need my phone.
Please help!

It is not clear from your post, did you flash MAGLDR before or after you accidentally broke your volume keys?

Correct you no longer have the required fuctions to interface with MAGLDR, or boot into bootloader. Thus you can not flash Win Mo via SD card or USB, flash CWM via option#4 USB Flasher in MAGLDR, flash a Android ROM via CWM or option #4 USB Flasher, or even flash cLK (which you could use fastboot commands to flash a Android ROM to but not for the faint of heart).

Not correct, Windows Mobile is no longer on your HD2 at all. Win Mo was rcompletely removed when you flashed MAGLDR.

This I do not know for sure if it will work or not because I do not know the defualt settings for MAGLDR. If it is set to boot from SD card on boot then yes placing a SD card Android build on your SD card in theory should work. It is worth a shot. just make sure it is a MAGLDR compatible Android build, it is several of them now. Also be sure to read the instalation or booting instructions in the first 1 to 3 posts of the build thread.

[Q] Urgent Help Needed

So i tried flashing an android ROM but its stuck on the AD recovery go go go screen.
I also wanna task 29 but I don't know how to get to the bootloader from MAGLDR 1.3
someone help please !
ummm i dunno if magldr can switch you into the bootloader, but doesn't the regular way to get to the bootloader work?
regular way:
1. make sure phone is OFF...take out the battery and plug it back in to make sure
2. hold down the volume down button
3. tap the power/end call button to power on the device
4. keep holding down volume down button
...bootloader should appear!
i guess you are a senior member so you must be looking for something else, it can't be as simple as above, is it?

Mate,
how about flashing stock rom via SD? dont use your old sd, get the new one, and try to flash the stock rom.
If you can pass that, then you can go back to try magldr again
or else,
I think it may be a hardware issue related, may be the volume down button is damaged. If this the case, since you are in android nand, you cant flash stock rom from USB sync
I hope that is not the case though
goodluck

Hey blackashsid, sorry to hear you are having troubles. Without being able to get to the SPL bootloader you will not be able to flash any .nbh file to your HD2. This translates to you not being able to flash a Windows Mobile ROM stock or custom, a different radio version, splash screen, any HSPL or SPL, or cLK. And yes flashing via SD card is no good to you without the SPL bootloader.
Option #5 USB Flasher in MAGLDR will only flash CWM or A DAF ROM.
Your issue is somewhat strange to me, I really don't understand why you are having this issuer unless it is hardware related.

yeah its strange !
its like i am stuck with MAGLDR
and ders no way to uninstall it or to get to the bootloader for a WM ROM !!
any ideas what is causing this ??
i will really appreciate it !
EDIT: also i noticed all of my DAF ANdroid ROMS get stuck at the splash screen...only WP7 made it !! i want android !
any reason why this happend ?
if you installed wp7 then it isnt an issue wth the phone, its quite possible the roms you are trying to install
Download again the rom you want to use... and make sure you read installing process - every android rom has his specific installing process - clockwork , ext3 ,ex4 etc etc.
I hope you solve your prolem

[Q] Volume down button broken/stuck how to install WP7 with magldr

Hi somehow after a while this button gave me lots of problems. First it was only working sometimes and now it doesn't work at all. Volume up button works great. I have magldr already installed. I'm currently using nexus hd2 ics build and want to dual boot WP7. Is there anyway I can flash WP7 without the volume down key?

Hi,considering you have the Magldr installed already,you'll need to use you Vol up key,as it can scroll through the Magldr menu without any problems.You'll have difficulties after that,when you'll need to adjust your volume.See if it works installing wp7 without the clean install (winmo,radio and all that).

Yes i know about that. This will be about installing android with clk on your hd2:
(I assume only your green call button is not working)
1- Download clk from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?nhyausx0p5whu#tzg7whl9wwaih . go to compiled test versions, and download one of the latest ones (black_lk_20130314-Ex-TWRP.......zip). This is black clk that comes with twrp recovery preinstalled.
2-install it like any other nbh file (via hd2 toolkit is the easiest)
3-once done, go to recovery by holding back button after booting, using vol up/dn buttons to navigate and menu key to open recovery
4-copy a rom to your sd card and flash it via recovery.
5-Enjoy

What about the partitions?
He still needs to go to clk's settings and select options there using the call button.
Maybe, JUST maybe he can use fastboot to resize partitions?
I know that that's possible in earlier original cLK versions, but not sure about the new ones.
You can use the ToolKit to repartition cLK, then install a touch recovery, but I am not sure if that's gonna work.

I forgot about that
Regarding partitions, in black clk (the one in the link i gave) you can use windows button instead of green button even in partition resize menu (i just tested it ) (I think windows button acts exactly as the green button so it's like a replacement)
fastboot is also possible as stated in the info menu in clk
(
fastboot oem part-resize name:size
=>Resize partition with given name to new size in MB
)
Hopefully You succeed
And Hopefully you Don't encounter any problems in roms because of the green button
btw:
If you don't know what partition size to use; it's definitely mentionned at the rom's thread
I prefer making a 390MB system partition and using DATAonEXT as it gives me 3gb internal storage (because i have a 3gb ext partition on my sd)
Thanks alot Gilbert.
Hey Gilbert bro. Its working fine.No issues. . Thanks for ur help. My htc hd2 s running Jellybean android now. Thanks alot man. If i could hit thanks button 1000 times i will do it man. But there is no option to hit 1000 times.:laugh: Thanks man. Gilbert i think u should open a thread how to install android without using call button.. I think it wil help others. Anyways c ya. thanks alot.
