Try connecting your phone to the back of your PC in one of the USB ports. Do not use the front ones.
Then when you run the Update utility right click on it and RUN as Administrator.
Hope that works.

That's quite hypocritical, saying that you hate people breaking forum rules then swearing and calling another member an idiot. If you're going to flame him (as I indeed was about to as well, but in a much nicer way), at least help him too, and just warn him about the mistake and report the thread for maintenance.
@ OP, what exactly are you trying to do? From what I understand, you already have MAGLDR and you're trying to flash MAGLDR again? There isn't any point to that, from here onwards the steps are to flash CWM with the right partition, then your desired ROM. Follow this guide.

Copy Pasting the half of the first post doesn't help us finding out what the problem is, Respect the people who spend time helping you out without getting anything!
So, Here is what you did:
You HSPL'd your device,
Installed Magldr,
Booted the device and pressed "USB Flasher"
Connected device to the pc, and tried to install the software but got a readme error?
Well I have that sometimes, but I just can go further.. Very strange.

Make sure to sync your fone with activesync for windows xp or windows mobile device in windows vista or 7. u cant flash MAGLDR without syncing your fone
Give a thanks if you found this helpful

not accurate.
The word 'sync' makes people think you have to actually get a connection to activesync/wmdc the program,,,,,, you don't.
put the phone into bootloader (stripey screen) connect usb, when serial becomes usb, thats an activesync connection and you can flash. activesync teh program will not show a connection when you do this. the line ''get an activesync connection'' has been confusing people for years.

[Q] activesync not recognizing phone after loading MAGLDR 1.11

Im in the process of loading the steps for the NAND Android ROM and right after i loaded the MAGLDR 1.11 my active synce stopped working. Now i can't load NAND Android ROM cause my computer wont recognize my phone by activesync.
All my phone says whenever i turn it on is:
Android Flasher Mode
Wait USB...USB
Does anyone have any idea what i can do to fix it. forgive me im a newb.

i have the same problem here!!
Guys pls help
The usb message your seeing means it is connected by usb. You should be able to continue. Not sure activesync recognises magldr.

Im sorry if im wrong but ofcourse your phone wont get regonized by active sync anymore because you took off windows mobile from your phone when you installed nand. Just be paitence when u connect your phone to your computer and it will deffently get regonized and you will be ready to flash new roms.

When you see this usb...usb you are connected.
Now right click daf.exe or android inastaller.exe or whatever the name and choose "run as administrator" and the install should start
read the second link in my signature
It says it is connected but when I run as admin it says usb init failure. What do I do then?

I saw a few posts about this problem. The fix is to reflash HSPL and load Magldr again.

Not able to make a usb connection to the phone when in Magldr
Error Description: USB init failed
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (723)
Go to the Activesync icon in the bottom right corner, right click on it and untick the option "Allow usb connections" and then connect the device again. Run daf.exe (or install.exe) as administrator by right clicking on it and selecting the option (if using Windows7 or Vista). Hopefully the usb drivers will then install and the Android Rom will flash.
Another option could be to uninstall and reinstall Activesync or to try different usb ports on your pc. If that doesnt work and you have Windows XP then you need to try on a machine with Vista or Windows 7.
If none of this works then try taking out your micro SD Card and repeating the process or flash a Custom Rom before you flash Magldr rather than a Stock Rom.
Lastly you could try starting the NAND installer with the phone unplugged and then plugged the phone in. The installer should immediately detect your device and proceed to flash.

[Q] I am having trouble installing magldr on HTC HD2

I installed HSPL3 and that went fine and then tried to install magldr 1.13 and it went to 100 percent right away and then when it rebooted on the first screen was a sd kernal error and then it went to the boot screen and when I do usb flasher it gives me usb..usb... then nothing and when take battery out and reboot same thing happens? I have a t-mobile htc hd2
it's supposed to give you "usb.. usb" when you connect your phone to your computer.
With that message it's saying you can go ahead and flash an android build to your phone's NAND/Rom/internal storage. So all you need to do is flash your phone with the DAF.exe that came with the build you downloaded. If you use windows 7 or vista, you need to run DAF.exe as an administrator.
Please read next time... This sort of question doesn't even need a thread.

How to install Android over existing Android ?

Hi,
I have HD2 with Android installed. But I don't know how to upgrade to new version of Android (cannot establish ActiveSync connection). Any kind of help will be appreciated !
if you use CWM, you can use CWM to format the internal flash and install new android via CWM.
i don't have CWM, sorry.
What else can I do ?

hi,
You must have activesync on your XP computer or the latest WMDC software drivers on your windows 7 PC in order for the USB to establish a connection.

Hi, I don't have Win Mobile 6.5 on HD2 so it is impossible to establish ActiveSync connection. I have *Android* on HD2, and cannot upgrade it because I don't have CWM.
So, what can I do ? I probably need to isntall WinMobile again don't I ?

Hi,
No ,you do not need to re-install WM 6.5
How did you get android on your phone?
You must have CWM to install ANDROID.
What computer operating system have you got?
What android ROM are you running?
What ROM do you want to upgrade to?
If you havr activeSync (WMDC) then it has the drivers to see the hd2.. all you have to do is get a CWM android rom and CWM recovery, restart go into MAGLDR and go to usb flasher then run the cwmrecovery exe to flash it dan restart and go into recovery and install the rom zip.. if its the Clk(native android bootloader) download a rom for that an you must have android sdk to use fastboot and flash that rom...
Which bootloader do you have?

One other thing...underneath it all, the HD2 is a Windows phone, with a serious hack to make it possible to run many other systems. So, from the SPL (hold Volume Down key and press the Power button) you will always boot into the SPL -- you have the H (hard) flavor of SPL or you couldn't have put Android on the phone.
In the SPL, you can always communicate with your phone using ActiveSync (on Windows XP) or Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) from Vista or Win 7.
If this doesn't make sense, feel free to PM me with info like what ROM you are currently using, etc.

Normally if you have MAGLDR you can boot into that by holding down the start button until the MGLDR menu appears and toggle down to option 5 USB Flasher.
(If you had Clock Work Mod then you would choose option 8 to get into AD recovery to flash the ROM from your SD.)
Then you just run the DAF.exe as the administrator of the DAF ROM you have downloaded and it will load onto your NAND.
Don't fear if you cannot get into your android bootloader then you can make a USB connection by connecting your phone to your PC and restarting your phone while holding down the down volume key which will take you to your tri colored boot-loader screen, while you are there check that you have HSPL 2.08, then down the bottom you should see USB which means you now have an active connection with your PC.
Just follow the below instruction on how to upgrade an existing ROM using MGLDR
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
You need to have HSPL 2.08, Radio that supports 576 RAM and MAGLDR 1.13
If you want to learn how to run one via CWM and your SD there is a link in the above link explaining how that works.

nand question plz1

ok last night i did my first nand on my nd2, i ran the hspl, then i ran the magldr 1.13, then i scrolled down to usb flasher, then i ran the rom that the youtube link gave me, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvS4EvS0PAw then it all worked, i had android on my phone, but i dont want the rom in the youtube link, i want one from this forum american android, and i was wondering, when i go to run magldr on my nand android i flashed, it tells me error and that to check if my phone is connected, and im just trying to do what i did in the youtube video but with a dif rom, but it wont work from android, it did just fine on wm 6.5, and my phone is connected to the usb, but it tells me it isnt, but i can still transfer music and other things, but when i go to run magldr it tells me my phone isnt connected, so i cant get into magldr and scroll down to flash usb and use the rom i want to use from this site, better? plz help thanks much.
in order to go into mgldr menu power off the phone.then power on but hold down the power key until mgldr menu comes. its not necessary to reload mgldr for each rom.if you installed it to your phone now it is in it.
i left it alone, and i powered off and tried turning it back on this morning when i woke up, and it powers on and then stops on quietly briliant, it wont even go into android now, is there any way i can go back to wm 6.5? or make my phone work again? when i go into magldr in usb flasher mode and try flashing a new rom, it tells me an error has occurred, error descriptio: USB init failed info: \rspl\rspl.cpp 736??? now my phone doesnt work at all... :<

try wiping the phone with task29, then loading the MAGLDR or cLK / which ever nand/rom you want to use. Hopefully this works for you....

you mustn't flash new roms in mgldr-usb flasher mod.
1)just put rom.zip into sd
2)go to mgldr-ad recovery-install zip from sd-choose zip from sd-find rom in the list and choose with call button.after installation is completed reboot.
try these with that rom:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933951

when i go into ad recovery it says no boot source???
Then you have to install cwm first.
I have had a similar problem with my phone and what worked for me was disconnecting the usb cable and plugging it back in. then it seen it as usb and i was able to flash the ROM. i know it seems rather simple but this small fix might work for you as it did for me.
if you can install cwm i would highly suggest to do that and also looking into the hd2 toolkit as someone else as already pointed out.

Hello
Sorry to bother but I really need your help!! I tried for several times but always end up by quitting. It´s too confusing
I have an HTC HD2 (MIUI - Gingerbread HD2 v2.4.13, MAGLDR V1.11) and want to change to WP 7 mango. What is the best and simplest procedure to do?!
Appreciate the patience!!!
Thank you

yes but is always saying "waiting for usb connetion" for a long time and noting happens
Maybe i miss something...
Then it must be drivers or something, 64bit windows gives this problem, as does runningwindows on a virtualvirtual machine.

#1: You need magldr 1.12 or later to run WP, so update your magldr. (Just install the latest.)
#2: Sometimes MAGLDR may not show "... - USB", it may appear AFTER starting the flasher, so ignore the disappearance of "...- USB" and flash normally. (This is usual, but you may DO be missing drivers or sth)
