Yes you can. Please ensure you go to *10. Services, 4. UseLast24NAND
* 10. Services, 5. ClearSD MDR
Then you can flash any wp7 rom, simple.

Definitely! I recommend this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833 (have it on my HD2) and just follow the guide.

Make sure you task29...like you did when installing Android. Otherwise, you may have Android leftovers in the OS NAND space.

Yes you can do this.It is very easy.

Found this in another post, very clear:
In menu MAGLDR 1.13:
1) MAGLDR1.13 -> 10. "Services" -> 4. "UseLast24NAND" -> "Green - YES";
2) MAGLDR1.13 -> 10. "Services" -> 5. "ClearSD MBR" -> "Green - YES";
3) MAGLDR1.13 -> 5. "USB Flasher" -> "USB Flasher mode" -> "Wait USB ";
Then:
4) Install WP7 for HD2 -> "DWI.exe" (run as administrator);
You are going to love WM7

ive not tasked 29'd since WM.
im fairly sure WP wipes the whole partition table, then reinstates its own partition, there wont be anything left.
Of course in saying that, I don't think it will harm anything either so its no big deal.

[Q] MAGLDR Readme.txt is mising

I get to run the DAF.exe, and when i hit next it says "Readme.txt for this release is missing."
Then it says
An error has occurred
Read below for more information
Error Description: Config load failed.
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (725)
Error Description: CONFIG: can't open config file
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (304)
What does all this mean, and what can I do, cause its not letting me flash my rom! Please Help!
I get the same problem there is a notepad file in the folder though does anyone have any idea why this might be so? Thank you so much in advance - best wishes
Aimee
Not trying to run it still zipped up are you?
I got the same thing....awwwwww
If you want to install MAGLDR on your device you have to execute the ROMUpdateUtility and not DAF.
I have the same problem!! Any fix for it now??
After you setup mgldr DONT TOUCH DAF. EXE in the mgldr folder. I had the same problem. This is a misconception caused by the tutirial. If you come to this step you just succeeded to setup mgldr. Now go and get a rom of your choice and get its instructions and flash it.

Hi,
The easiest way to install magldr and other various necessities,is using
THIS TOOL
I have the same issue: but all the solutions say: "If you want to install MAGLDR on your device you have to execute the ROMUpdateUtility and not DAF."
I have magldr running on the HD2 AFTER running ROMUpdateUtility BUT running DAF still comes up with Readme.txt missing, can't find config files.. etc blah blah..
Yes I run it as Adminstrator.:
SO:
1) Why is the readme.txt missing in the first place from the Magldr zip file.
2) How does the config files get created. (are they automatic or when ROMUpdateUtility is ran)??
Why are you running the daf in magldr folder if magldr is already installed? There is no situation where you need to run the daf in the magldr folder.
Because in the forum thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
In Section 2 Note 3: States to run DAF..????
=========================================
2. FLASH YOUR ANDROID ROM
The Original NAND Android Thread by Cotulla is *HERE*
NOTE1: This section is only applicable AFTER you have flashed MAGLDR to your Device
NOTE2: Make sure your phone is still connected via usb cable before starting
* When your phone Reboots it will Enter the MAGLDR Boot Menu Screen *
1. Press the 'Volume Down' button to goto Option 5: USB Flasher and press the 'Call' button (far left of the 5 hardware buttons at the bottom)
2. The menu will enter Android Flasher mode and install usb drivers if not present
3. Browse to the folder you extracted your NAND Android Package files to on your pc, right click on Run DAF.exe (or Install.exe if DAF.exe isnt present) and select Run as Administrator
4. Read ALL the text and then select 'Next'
5. Read the information and select 'Next'
6. The installer will now detect USB and then flash your Android Rom to NAND
* You can follow this progress on your Phones Screen *
7. When flashing is complete your phone will Reboot and proceed to boot Android from NAND
========================
This guide was suppose to be a guide for us newbeeeeesss!?
LOL
That's why I run DAF.. because I have ROMS in zip format.
That would be referring to the daf.exe that comes with daf style roms, not the daf.exe in the magldr folder.
Those are old style roms, and there aren't many of them left. If a rom is daf style it comes with its own daf.exe
Normally you would
Flash magldr (done)
Flash clockworkmod with the required partition size
Put the zipped rom on SD card
Start clockworkmod
Choose "instal zip from SD"
Job done.
Excellent - thank you.
So if I then want to revert back to the Windows 6.5 stock ROM - Do I reset the partition back to 512Mb?
No, just flash the rom, it will take care of the wiping itself.
OK, I just tried re-installing MAGLDR after a task29 and had the same errors. In the end I used HD2 Toolkit which did the job, but still this is strange: It worked flawlessly the first time I installed it, but not today.
No point reinstalling magldr, since task 29 doesn't touch magldr or radio or spl/hspl.

[Q] Cannot install any type of files with DAF.exe

Ok well I have been trying to do this for quite some time and never found a solution, I had android 2.3.3 installed on my previous phone and eventually had to use CLK files to upgrade my HD2. That one unfortunately messed up and I received a replacement, and cannot even install an HSPL 2,3, or 4 to unlock the phone because the software does not even boot. I've tried using Ksubedis tool and same thing I will post a picture please someone help its frustrating using WM 6.5.
Right click and "run as administrator " and use USB slot in back of PC case,not front.

Using a Windows 7 HP Laptop 64-Bit only two USB ports(both USB 2.0) they are on the left side, but as you see on the picture nothing comes up not even an error. So idk what is going on.
There's a fair number of threads where 64bit windows doesn't work.any chance you have another machine available?
Also firewall off,anti virus off,and redownload the .exe
Are you running as admin. Is it your laptop do you have admin privileges?

The Rom I have Listed in this Tutorial is said to be the BEST PERFORMANCE ROM. And its SYSTEM PARTITION SIZE IS 400M. And CACHE SIZE 5M. Use it if you like or find your own Rom of Preference and flash that specific Roms Size Partition or it will not boot.
Do You have HSPL 2.08 on this?
1.If Not Use Ksubedi's Toolkit and Go into BootLoader VIA Volume Down and Power Button Simultaneously. and Connect Phone to PC wait for "USB" at Top Center of White Strip.
2. Click HSPL 2.08 in Toolkit, while in BootLoader. Let it Finish.
3. Enter BootLoader one more Time. This time click Install MAGLDR in Toolkit. With Partition Size of which rom you want to flash highlighted. and Correct Cache Size, Partition and Cache Size can be determined by the OP of the Rom you want to Flash.
4. Once Flashed, Hold POWER DOWN. Until you see 12 Options.
5. Go to Option "5. USB Flasher." wait for "Wait USB...USB" (Note Phone Needs to be Connect to PC During whole Process).
6. Use Daf.exe from this File: http://hotfile.com/list/1335611/19f8a51
and Download File HD2_Core_Droid_Desire_HD_V1.6_TMOUS_NAND_ONLY_LEO1024.rar.
7. Once Download and you are in Option 5. Run the DAF.exe in the above file and RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR. Idk why but now devs don't want to include the Daf.exe with their latest builds.
8. Once Daf.exe is finished. Boot into MAGLDR again and go to Option "8. AD Recovery." This time.
9. Partition SDCard, if you haven't done so already, in Advanced Menu with size 1024M and Swap size 0M.
10. Then "Mount USB Storage" Then "Mount USB" and Copy Zip to SDCard.
11. Flash and Reboot.

Yes i understand the process this is my third phone flashing, actually ive flashed numerous phones and never encountered this error. as you see in the picture, after clicking DAF.exe the screen pops up but nothing happens it doesnt even let me know if i encountered an error. which i am assuming its the windows 7 64 bit, and i can't even flash an HSPL with this...and ive tried using ksubedis tool and same conclusion
ok well i discovered that when trying to flash the HSPL4 and click on the DAF.exe the font is invisible but it gives me an option to flash it or cancel you cant see it but when you move the cursor to the bottom right hand corner you see two hollow boxes, the one on the right is to cancel installation as you see if you click on it, and when you move the cursor a little over to the left is to install the HSPL and the next window gives you the option to install which ever HSPL you need. Then I used ksubedis tool to install MAGLDR which i could, then i installed it, but when i attempted to partition i could not flash it. so i just went back to clk, so now i can flash clk only though. dont know whats going anymore.
Its not the problem with the OS. Because I have the same OS, Windows 7 64bit. Well I suggest trying it on another PC or Laptop, whichever is your preference. And another thing I can say is to right click the DAF.executive and then properties and change the compatibility mode to Windows 98? Or Windows XP?
And BTW have you tried running the DAF that is in the file I told you to download earlier? Cuz maybe the Daf.exe you're running now is corrupted?

I have not tried it with the file you provided, but after I install it where do i insert it, and I have downloaded various forms of different ROMS, and tools that use DAF.exe and always the same result. also ive tried changing the compatibility of the tools by right clicking and clicking on troubleshoot compatibility and changing it vista and other older forms of windows and no luck
ok i also discovered when trying to repartition with Ksubedis tool for a ROM and the same happened when trying to install the HSPL, invisible font but this time you dont see the hollow boxes, but there are two boxes on the bottom right as you would when flashing an HSPL. Finally i can use MAGLDR once again even though CLK was easier.

[q] typical error, i know, but my useless weekend brain can't connect the dots

To save time, the question is TRYING TO FLASH A ICS BETA10 NAND TO AN HD2 LEO ... WHAT DO I DO NEXT?... if you're interested read on!
Well first a death row pardon request to the experienced readers who will probably think "man this is all around why don't you do a search"
I've read lots of posts and either there are many misinterpretations for questions asked or my myelin is severely endangered.
CURRENT STEP BY STEP PROGRESS:
1) Downloaded files (MAGLDR 1.13 / HARDSPL4 / RADIO 2.xx.50.xx / ICS BETA10)
2) Installed HARDSPL 2.08.HSPL
3) Installed radio 2.xx.50 (The one recommended in XDA post)
4) Successfully flashed MAGLDR 1.13 (downloaded from 3 different sources and tried them in order to be sure the file wasn't corrupt)
5) Successfully linked USB from MAGLDR (i see the ***Wait USB...USB*** line)
Now when i run the DAF.exe in the MAGLDR 1.13 folder and click NEXT it shows:
****Readme.txt for this release is missing.****
... and when I click next:
****An error has occurred
Read below for more information
Error Description: Config load failed.
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (725)
Error Description: CONFIG: can't open config file
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (304)****
QUESTION: WHAT DO I DO NEXT?
NOTES THAT MIGHT BE USEFUL FOR THE WISE:
a) I tried from 2 different computers (32 and 64 bits JIC)
b) When I turn the phone on, before the phone boots into MAGLDR i get a red BOOT FROM SD KERNEL FALIED... maybe it's normal as there is no SD but maybe it need to be pointed it out.
thanks for your help!
pull batt out.Hold back and power button.You will see magldr screen,keep buttons pressed.then youll see numbers on yours screen.relese buttons,with vol down button go to number 5(usb flaser),press call button and then flash recovery(you will find this in hd2 tools(down left repartition button) and choose recovery size what is described in rom thread.
---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------
For install ics beta 1o you need 200Mb partiotion.best is to made it with hd2 tools,chose 200 and down under input 10Mb and press repatition
I've said exactly what ^He has said, except in details.

You don't have the config.cfg file that holds the partitioning information.
Anyway, forget it. There is a better (and easier) way to install the recovery.
You know, there is this little tool .. that was created by this intelligent dev.. where you can select the size .. the size of the system partition you want .. oh oh and also, also the cache partition .. without the hassle of modifying the config.cfg . And guess what? the tool is right here. [Thank you, Ksubedi]
Simply, go to USB flasher on MAGLDR and start it. On your PC, install that tool. And from the panel at the top choose MAGLDR Update Recovery & click "update" on the panel at the bottom. After it finishes, go to USB flasher again and start it. Now on your pc, select "MAGLDR Repartition" and from left panel choose "200mb" and right below it type "10mb" . (These numbers vary depending on the rom you are to install). And finally hit "Repartition" from the panel at the bottom.
After that, simply go to MAGLDR and select option #8 "8. AD Recovery" and flash your rom from there .
I hope I haven't missed anything, and have a nice day.
You have installed magldr allready?
If so, you don't do again daf.exe in magldr, because magldr is allready installed.
You have to download recovery, and edit flash.cfg file (with notepad) as you need for your rom.
Afterwards start daf.exe from recovery folder..
to point b, this is normal, because you don't have installed any ROM..
And have fun
BRILLIANT Marvlesz!!!
Thank you, i will then add a "simplified step by step" so that the big picture is clear. So to make it more explicit for people having the same problem:
Situation at the time of the post:
1) Downloaded files (MAGLDR 1.13 / HARDSPL4 / RADIO 2.xx.50.xx / ICS BETA10)
2) Installed HARDSPL 2.08.HSPL
3) Installed radio 2.xx.50 (The one recommended in XDA post)
4) Successfully flashed MAGLDR 1.13 (downloaded from 3 different sources and tried them in order to be sure the file wasn't corrupt)
5) Successfully linked USB from MAGLDR (i see the ***Wait USB...USB*** line)
After problem:
6) Downloaded HD2 Toolkit
7) While on USB FLASHER mode (option 5 on MAGLDR) and within HD2 Toolkit on PC:
a.Click on "MAGLDR UPDATE RECOVERY" > click UPDATE > a cmd will prompt > press enter > should say "Daemon started successfully"
b.Click on "MAGLDR REPARTITION" > set 200MB on PARTITION > set CACHE SIZE to 10MB (careful, may vary depending on the rom you are using) > click REPARTITION > should be some action on the phone
8) Copy downloaded ROM to sd card (the .zip file as it is) and reboot the phone
9) On the MAGLDR select 8.AD RECOVERY > INSTALL ZIP FROM SDCARD
10) Select the ROM you just copied onto the SD card > Once installation is done (it will show on the screen) navigate back on the MAGLDR menu and choose REBOOT SYSTEM NOW
Give it 2 or 3 minutes to start and you're DONE!

Helllppp please!!

Go here: http://d-h.st/Kya and download the zip file. Inside is everything you need.
Unzip. The first one is the DFT_MLI_SAM1.exe. That is the one that gets MAGLDR on your phone.
Once that is done, the other DFT_WPI_SAM1.exe file is the best 7.8 ROM I have used yet.
It is discussed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1528984
To install:
0.) Have MAGLDR installed on your phone and Samsung Drivers installed on your PC
1.) Place the zip files 'OS.D000FF + CSC.D000FF + DFT_WPI_SAM1.exe + rapitool.exe + Readme.txt' in a folder
2.) Go to 'Settings' -> 'about' -> 'reset your phone' -> 'yes' -> 'yes'
3.) Right when the screen goes black press and hold 'voldown + camera'
4.) Press '<-' (cancel)
5.) Plug your phone into your PC
6.) Flash OS.D000FF + CSC.D000FF with DFT_WPI_SAM1.exe
7.) Wait
8.) Go through setup wizard on phone
9.) Go to 'Settings' -> 'about' -> 'reset your phone' -> 'yes' -> 'yes'

^^ great tutorial by Windows Phone Hacker Jaxbot on how to go about custom ROMming it up. Make sure you've got the drivers he refers to in the video (seriously just google "Samsung USB Drivers For Mobile" and DL them) and then follow the directions.
Watch the video on the WPH site first, and don't freak out if it takes a while when you do it. The usb/computer/phone picture will probably stay on the screen for a while before a progress bar appears. Also, make sure you hard reset the phone once the new ROM is flashed.

have a Samsung Focus 1.3 and I am trying to Install Clean ROM 3.0.
I believe I have all the proper drivers installed on my computer (Samsung USB, WMDC) I have installed MAGLDR 2.00 on the phone and I can enter MAGLDR mode by pressing volume down + cam + power. Upon pressing back it says "Wait USB" and as soon as I connect I see "USB! CMD connected"
However, when I run DWPI I get the following error:
Please make sure that your device is connected to your computer.
also make sure that right drivers are installed (Active Sync or Windows Mobile Device Center)
Try to connect device to different USB port and also you can try to reboot PC.
Also you can try to exclude USB hubs.

I installed Magldr and Clean Rom just the other day and encountered the exact error, but I wish I paid attention to what I had done to resolve it. I believe it matters when you connect the phone to the computer. Try this:
- Disconnect your phone from the computer
- Run the Magldr installation and proceed through the steps until the point where you have to click Next to start the installation (do not start the install, just leave it at the screen just before the installation starts)
- Follow the steps mentioned before to get your phone ready for Download mode
- Now connect your phone to the computer and confirm that the device is connected and ready
- Go back to the Magldr installation window and proceed with the installation
I want to say, at least in my case, making sure the phone was connected to the computer when everything was ready (versus leaving it connected all the time), helped resolve the error.
Good luck!
I just installed Magdlr and CleanRom and got this error too. All I had to do was close the installer and unplug the phone from my PC for a few seconds. Once I plugged the phone back in and started the installer it worked the second time.
Camera button don't work.

Hi there,
I have one question and how can I access step # 3 because the camera button on my phone is not working ( I Think it is a hardware issue). Is there any other workaround to do this without using the camera button?
