Hi all,
I need help...
I have been using AmericanAndroid for a while, I transfered files from my PC to the SD card, but when I put the SD card back into the HD2 android no longer boot. I am stuck on boot animation.
FYI I had been on 082811 for a while with no particular issues.
This is kind of nightmare since I have lost loads of data.
I would be very very greateful if someone could help either:
- get back my data from my PC from the SD card
- find a way to boot again in android on my HD2.
Looking forward to hearing from somebody...
Please help. Need to regain access to some important data.

I did that because i had some internet trouble and my SD was not mounted on boot
So now i'm stuck with a phone wich is stuck in a bootloop and doesn't reed my SD card
ANYONE can help me please????
I really want my phone back
Check the Development section for the thread "easiest way to unroot". I had a similar problem to yours and this resolved it for me. You might need to format your SD card to FAT32 before staring though and seeing as you cant mount your phone you're probably going to need an external card reader for your SD card.

Dude! Youre awesome this was exactly where i was looking for! Tnx man!!
Received my first HTC through the post yesterday and joined the site in an attempt to run android. I know nothing and there's an overwhelming amount of information on this site so just need someone to point me in the right direction.
Used this and followed instructions carefully: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957652
My problem is after running clrcad.exe and haret.exe, the phone reset after a grey screen. Looked like it went well but now the SD card has disappeared from the file explorer and windows when connected through USB.
Any help appreciated, just want to get the SD card back up so I can format it and so on. Thanks.
I take it by the lack of replies that this isn't a common problem. It's kind of put me off trying any new ROM's as a simple procedure like this can't even go straight. Will have to stick with Winmo then
Im not quite sure anymore, but i dont think you are able to mount your sd as long as you use sd builds. I dont know if this is changing with an ext partition on your sd.
Just check out the NAND section. Its installed on your internal memory and not running from sd. WinMob will be fully deleted and replaced with Android, so first do a backup of contacts etc!!!
If you do not need WinMob for any kind of apps for work etc which arent ported to Android yet (which i dont think there are much NAND is the best solution for you.
Started like you with sd build 2years ago, too. But switched to NAND as soon as it was stable.
Now it is almost perfect.

How did you get the card to show again? Or did you buy a new one?
Just a thought,have you tried a soft reset? Switch phone off Take back cover of and press little red button for a few seconds,put cover back on reboot into android
Also make sure your SD card is formatted to 32kb (slow format)

I've been running wp7 on my hd2 for awhile now and recently wanted to dualboot it to android.. looking at the guides I'm not quite sure about this, will using the partition managers format my data currently held on wp7?
I don't want to lose my texts or contacts and I don't want to have to call ms again for another activation code since I seem to have lost the notepad doc I saved it in xD
I may be wrong but I think it will remove what is on your card already. You can always buy a second SD card and use it to run Android from, just dont boot to WPY with that SD card in the device or it will format it for use with WP7.
how big is your card? you should at least be using a 16gig card if you want to DB, but 8gig is still fine BUT all your files/ data will be erased since you need to reset the phone. Alternatively just like what T-Macgnolia said, get a 2nd card & place the SD ROM there & boot from magldr.
this is what i followed - again yesterday - for my friends HD2's dual Boot system.
remember that the partition for Windows should be a little larger than that of the Andy.

as long as you do things right all will be OK but wrongly done You WONT boot into WP7 again as the partition will be corrupted.
What I do is Get another SD card & make an exact mirror/ copy of the one i use for WP7 so if one fails I still have a backup. Before proceeding though make sure that Both Cards do boot into WP7. check out the link below, it might help.
Hello

Well hi Lucky I have a nice link for you here on this site , how many pages from here ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915663
I've encountered a similar problem. Try installing windows mobile first. I think it had to do with the radio version

Hi,
After a long history with successful 6.5 updates I thought I'd try WM 7!
I've read the storage card posts and tried a hard reset both with my card and without but always get to the same Storage Card not working error.
I don't have a Nokia to reformat my card but have tried reformatting on the PC.
There is a bit I haven't been able to follow using magdlr 'services' option - how do i stop WM7 from booting and get back to the magdlr menus?
Some advice for a noobie please - don't want to brick my phone but not that fond of the Storage Card Not Working screen either!

I'm sorry to hear about your issues. The micro SD card you've fit in your phone is too slow to cope with the constant read/write imposed by the OS.
The card you've used is unusable unless you unlock it by sending the unlocker cab to your device, unlock it, then format it on your computer. You could also format it on a symbian, nokia device.
Unless you mention the specific part number of your micro DS and brand, I can't help you further, with regards to compatibility, however, some models are proven to work flawlessly on WP7 powered HD2. ( such as sandisk 32 GB)
Make sure to further research, and hopefully you get this sorted out
only old Yuki (Back to the future) ROM lock cards...
all new ROM's not lock cards and unlocking or formatting with nokia device not necessary
if card not working: simple, not supported.. you must buy new card...
you cant brick phone... just read my install tutorial from signature if you something dont know...
Thanks for advice.
For benefit of others the symptoms I had were down to initial install. I needed to use Magldr to free up last 24 of nand memory and then reflash. Now all working.
As ever none of the stickies quite cover everything, but your help and another google session saved the day.
Thanks to the developers! WP7 giving my phone an all new feel.
