Data.img files?

Can anyone tell me what the Data.img files are for? nearly every version of android i download comes with a 512 Data and 1024 data but I don't know what they are for and I cant get android to run on my HD2
Thanks in advance

The file data.img is basically where the Android system lives. It's similar to internal storage on a WinMo phone.
If you're having problems running Android, why not give us more information. Most importantly, which radio does your device have?

Okay thanks,
I have tried about 4 diffrent android versions, most of them are stuck at the "jumpin to kernel (custom)" bit, the furthest I got was it was loading but then the writing just faded away and I had to take out my battery,
My radio is 2.07.51.22_2

Your radio isn't suitable for Android. There's a sticky thread about installing Android. I suggest you start there.

If you want a large DATA.IMG use .IMG Maker, there is a link in my signature.

Thanks, I flashed a new radio and that seems to have fixed that problem, But now it boots in about 3 seconds and only stays at the HTC logo
Any advice?

If there's a file called data.img included in the build then there may be a problem. If there isn't then it creates one when you first boot. Depending on the Android build, the size of the data.img and your SD card, this can take anything up to half an hour (I've read some people report longer). Sometimes it can be 5 minutes though.
If you got to the HTC logo and stopped the process then it may have started to create data.img, but then stopped when you powered down the phone. If that's the case then delete it and start Android over again. This time leave it for longer and come back if it still doesn't work.

Cant boot anymore

Hi folks, i'm looking for 2 days a way to solve my DHD problem:
It can't boot anymore. It pop up the "htc quietly brilliant" screen, play the boot sound and, start this step again, and again, and again...
So I'm googling a LOT about how to solve this, if exist a way to restore the original rom. Because i'm thinking that was the problem, my original rom is gone.
That happens when i try to install 3 softwares from appbrain, my device got freeze and i hit the power button to reset. So, after that, my device is gone.
So i came here, to ask you folks: There is a way to recover the original rom ? Without send to warranty (because it spend something like 1 month here).
I'm not a mobile hacker or something, i'm just trying to be happy with my device.
Thanks a lot and sorry for my poor english!!

Perhaps try booting to the bootloader, by holding Power + Volume down button. From there, you should be able to do a factory reset, which may or may not fix your problem. Worth a shot at least, imo

And if it does not work when you do a factory reset, you can use a rom.zip from HTC RUU to restore your phone.
Now the important thing is to know which HTC rom you are running. If it is unbranded, 1.72.405.3 is a sure shot. Download the RUU.exe from Stock roms thread in android development subforum, and run it. When the window pops up, open run prompt, and type: "%TEMP%". Then search for rom.zip, copy it to your desktop, rename it to PD98IMG.zip and put it to your SD card (I hope that you have a card reader). Then just reboot to bootloader as tmh described, and watch the magic happen
Then if your phone is branded, you can still use the same technique to make PD98IMG.zip, but you have to get the RUU that matches your branding. There are lots of RUUs in android development subforum, just search.

Hi guys,
thanks a lot for quik reply!
I perform the procedure indicated by tmh, but without lucky ;\
I think it is unbranded. I buy it at Portugal and i'm using at Brazil right now.
I'll perform your tip jkoljo.
I'll post a repply to let people know if it works or not.
Thanks a lot!!

Hope the advice the last guy gave helps , a factory re set may work fine and fix the issue. Iv had 3 dhd since the day of release , the second one I had wouldn't switch on, had it replaced by Vodafone . Not sure weather or not they will give you a new one . Hope u get it fixed

I'm not sure if i got cover from warranty.
Right now, my "PROOF OF PURCHASE" is at europe, and i'm at america, so i must get this work again by myself, or pay (some expensive value, i think) for htc support.
I found those ROM version:
RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R2_Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF_release_163262_signed.exe 04-Jan-2011 12:41 285M Windows executable file

the different is just the radio version. just try flash one of them and see if that work.

WWE means World Wide English, which is an international release
Any one of those RUUs you linked is ok, as hedayat7 already said.

WWE is World wide English...so both are english Roms...try the RUU flash, it should work like a dream....

Sorry ask for your help again, but at Official thread (thread number 841207) for DHD files, both 1.72.405.3 links are broken.
So i search for another thread, and found another one, but when i run the .exe, it ask for a USB connection to device, so it appears wrong.
Could you gimme a hand to find the correct file?
PS: I can help with a web hosting to all correct files.

You probably found the correct RUU, now proceed to %TEMP% and copy rom.zip to desktop.
You can find RUUs here: http://xdafil.es/index.php?path=DesireHD/RUU/
I am not completely sure if those zip files are actual rom.zips, you can check that. Open up the zip, and if it has a long list of hboot, system, android-info.txt etc, then it is rom.zip and you can just go ahead and rename it to PD98IMG.zip.

But i did that.
The "1.72.405.3" files at this URL are broken (Or need password to access it, because "You don't have permission to access" message pop up).
When i run the RRU i got two screens, first i must accept a advice, the second one ask if I have a USB connection to my device. Even when i proceed to next step, i got no .zip file on my %TEMP%.
Im lost because of that lol
UPDATE: OK I FOUND IT! haha ty

Thanks a lot my friends,
but it doesn't work.
I perform the process for 2 different roms, and it doesn't work.
Still can't boot.
I'll sent for warranty and wait a loooong time..
But thanks a lot for help me with this!!

Ok, then there is something wrong in the device itself. You have to send it to a service center.

Hi again,
i keep a little hope that i can restore my phone, so i found a possible solution:
OTA update.
At "showthread.php?t=667728&page=2", i found a guy with the same problem i think, here is the quote:
Kinma said:
I had the same problem last week.
I suspected it had to do with the EXT3 partition.
Solved it by first flashing the OTA 2.2 ROM (for rooted users) as this does not use the EXT3. Then used Rom manager to recreate the EXT3.
Now all ROMs that use the EXT3 run fine!

(thanks Kinma for the feedback)
So, i start a search for OTA update file here, and found at "showthread.php?t=885996".
But when i choose "Apply sdcard:update.zip", i got INVALID OPERATION.
Someone have a tip for me about this?
Thanks (its very sad, but i must keep hope).

You are welcome.
What happened was that after a reboot of the phone the phone started rebooting in the boot sequence, i.e. a boot loop.
I tried a lot of things and nothing worked.
Finally I suspected that the problem might be with the SD card. I had a backup, so I had no problem doing a factory reset.
Then I booted the phone without the SD card.
The phone booted fine.
That way I was certain that the problem was with the SD card.
I had 2 partitions on the SD card, an EXT3 part and the rest was a normal Fat part.
I could still read the card, so I made a backup of all the data on the card.
Then I reformatted the card using windows.
The phone booted fine with an empty, reformatted, SD card.
Since I use Apps 2 SD, I had to recreate the EXT3 partition.
If your rom does not use this, you do not have to do this.
After recreating the EXT partition, put back all files that I want on my SD card.
My advice would be to do a factory reset and after that boot the phone without the SD card.
If the phone boots, you know the problem is with the card.
Hope that helps; good luck!

Hi folks,
boot without the SD card, doesn't work =(
I'm really without luck with this.
I do:
- Factory reset
- Clear cache and userdata
- Boot without SD or/and SIM cards
- Reflash RUU WWE 1.72.405.3 Radio 26.04.02.17_M2
- Reflash RRU WWE 1.72.405.3 Radio 26.04.02.17_M2 SF
- erase all SD
One show was use OTA update.zip, but at this step i got "invalid operation"
SO, nothing works!
Well, it appears a lost battle =\
thanks folks for all help.

Yeah, there must be something wrong in your device itself, for example a motherboard fault. Send it back to HTC.

[Q] WP7 Roms - Cab Sender??

Hey guys,
today I crashed my WP7 partition...so I gotta reinstall.
Until today I was running an old version of Yuki/Xbmods rom. I really liked the possibility to send cabs to the device.
Because I didn't really follow the WP7 Developement in the last couple of months I have some questions:
1. As far as I can tell almost all new roms can be updated via Zune?
2. Do other roms than Yuki/Xbmod support cab-sending aswell?
3. Related with question 2: Is there an easy way to partition the sd-card with other roms? Yuki/Xbmod had a cab file which made partitioning very easy...
4. What is your favorite rom ;D?
Sry that I'm taking the easy way here but I'm so busy right now and I suppose if you guys are up to date these questions are a piece of cake for you.
Really appreciate your help!

All other ROMs don't lock the sd-card which makes thing simplier, you'll find guides but in short, you reset the phone in settings/about don't let the system boot up past Magldr remove the card alter the partitions in partition magic (software needed) to give you a Fat16 partition (~200MB), unallocated space and unformatted space (which needs to be the largest partition). Reinsert card into phone let it boot then turn off, remove card format and merge fat16 and unallocated partition, format resulting partition into desired format. Then use Minitool (another software needed) to make both partitions primary.

thax for your suport. am waiting ur guide...

Just see this guide. It's very easy to understand, even if English is not your native language. This is a simple overview:
1. Flash MAGLDR 1.13 in bootloader
2. Flash CWM with the correct partition size for your selected ROM:
3. Partition your SD card for use with A2SD within CWM
4. Flash your desired ROM as a .zip from CWM.

Use HD2 TOOLKIT
You just need to use the HD2 TOOLKIT, which gives you all the necessary tools to make a fresh install

dear respected members, still am not getting where to start, where to download, am very confuse. i was searching on this forum and i found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893620&page=1 and this exact android version is installed on my htc hd2 mobile. all screen shot of this link is exact on my mobile..

should i have to install HARDSPL 2.08 again ? should i have to install RADIO again? should i have to install MAGLDR V1.13 again ? there is no CLOCKWORK option on my mobile so what i have to do ? there is no SD card partition option on my mobile. so what i have to do ? which android version i have to select and where to download?? etc etc i have lots of qus. so please guide me step by step.

This is pathetic, you're just not trying here. You want everyone else to do it for you. The guide I linked explains everything fully and even provides CWM downloads. Since you've already got the DFT ROM on it, surely you can figure out that you already have HSPL 2.08 and a viable radio? And if the guide says to flash MAGLDR 1.13 then why not just do it? There's no point helping you if you aren't going to put any effort in at the same time.

First,u will have to install HSPL 2.08
You will download the hspl 2.08 and u will install it by pressing power and the volume down and keeping it pressed.
2nd,u have to download and install 2.15.50.14 radio in the same way u installed HSPL.
3rd,u will download and install magldr 1.13 agin in th same way..
Now,you are ready to install any NAND Android rom. This means u will have no longer windows 6.5 installed on your phone..it' gonna be "blank"..
Then,you will find a partition system..(250M would be fine, it's a zip file) and run Magldr menu in USB FLASHER mode..that means u wil have ur phone connected to the usb port.. (you open the magldr menu by holding pressed the power button)
U will unzip the 250M an run the DAF.exe file..the partition is going to begin itself..
After that, u will go to magldr menu in the magldr menu and u will run 8. AD RECOVERY..u will go to mount and storage menu/mount and will get the rom u want to install in the sd card..then u will press back and u will find and run the install from sd card menu..the rom installation is about to begin..and if everythin is done correctly,the android rom is about to launch..
If any questions,don't hesitate to ask..good luck with your new android rom.

I have the same issue, as even with no apps installed to internal memory I supposedly have used up 90% of my internal storage and only have about 20MB left. I think all of the apps install something to the internal memory by default, because when I went through manually checking some of the larger apps I found that there were some things which still had the .apks or the libs files on the internal storage. Once I moved all of them, I had freed up about 40MB of space (i.e. total 60MB free), but somehow that gradually disappeared.

can any body suggest me any solution please ?
still waiting solution for expert members...

[Q] Frustrated NOOB needs a little help installing rom

After several days struggle, I'm burned out. Some of the threads here have 100+ pages, and searches yield too much outdated, irrelevant info. So, I'm asking for some direction (as simple as possible, please).
I'm trying to set up my unlocked HD2 (originally T-Mo, but unlocked and using AT&T) for dual-boot, WM6.5 and Android. As you know, the choices for android rom are mind-boggling. I don't need anything fancy, just something up-to-date and stable. I would like, however, something LOUD.
Here's what I've tried so far:
Using despy1989's March 2010 guide (four years old already!), I have my HD2 booting up asking to choose Android or WM. If I choose Android, it does nothing, and defaults to WM.
I have SUNDAWG-CM7-NATIVESD rom loaded (or I think I do) in the android directory of the SD card. I'm not sure this one will meet my LOUD requirement, but since it won't load, I can't tell.
If I tap the new Android icon, it does nothing. If I tap the Android SoftReset icon, it resets but does not load Android, goes to WinMo.
If I go to File Explorer, and run haret, I get the message "failed to load file \storagecard\android\sdcard\nativesd\zimage"
What do I do next?
ANY help is much appreciated.

How did you installed Android as NativeSD? Did you made a partition on your SD in EXT4 which is needed for installing the Rom? Why you want keep WM 6.5 anyway?

AFAIK, yes it is installed as NativeSD, Did not make a partition (there was conflicting advice as to whether it was necessary. I'm not ready to go "all in" and reformat my old SD card yet.)
Want to keep WM6.5 since it is the only one that works the way I need. I've been playing with a Sony X10a with Android 1.6 and am frustrated. I specifically need LOUDNESS and customizable ringtones and notifications, and relatively easy syncing with my PC.
Thanks for your reply and any further advice.

If you do not make a partition EXT4 it will never be installed so you just messing around that is why is not working. From WM6.5 can be run only SD Android version or there is another way, much longer but it's the way how it have to be.
Install MAGLRD and Recovery, probably this will wipe the phone, make the partition on SD to Install NativeSD, Install the Rom as Native SD. Then flash back the Stock WM6.5, this will wipe MAGLRD and Recovery. Now start again Android from the folder created from the installation. It should boot.

Reply to your suggestion

Sorry. As a NOOB, what you've suggested is Greek to me and far too complicated. I can't risking wiping the phone and bricking it.

I did this 100 times and HD2 is not that easy to brick, I never heard about bricked HD2 before. Then if you don't want to do it you will never have NativeSD on your phone because the NativeSD have to be installed on EXT4 partition, there is no other way. The only Android which you can use is from this section HERE. Put it on SD with other stuff and run with the application from WM6.5. First boot is very long.

No, wipe (task29) won't even touch SPL parts.
So, unless you're super duper unlucky using wipe command, you won't bricking your device.
I don't know if you're already flash HSPL.
I suggest you to flash HSPL first, then the rest is up to you..

If you really can't do this I can assist you via Team Viewer, I will tell you what to do and what to download. Before that I have to see your bootloader. Send me a PM to arrange an appointament. I don't know nobody in USA at the moment or I don't know they are.

So, I'm asking for some direction (as simple as possible, please).
I'm trying to set up my unlocked HD2 (originally T-Mo, but unlocked and using AT&T) for dual-boot, WM6.5 and Android.
What do I do next?
ANY help is much appreciated.

Been trying to follow your steps, but when I get to "Native SD Install Recovery", the links are broken. (this is the very kind of frustrations I'm having - there does not appear to be one single step-by-step guide without numerous links to invalid or outdated sites. I don't need advertising either.)
I can't find the 4EXT partition (in W8.1) in order to install anything.
So, now what?
