Phone freezes

Hey all, i have searched XDA and google but cannot find anything relating to my issue!
I have installed MAGLDR 1.3 and the clockwork recover mod tool.
Im running HSPL 2.08 - i have tried to install V3 but it only gives option for 2.08? I have used a suggested radio and installed the ultimate android rom.
Now the problem is that 5 times out of ten on boot up it sits at the MAGLDR menu with "gogogo" but it doesnt gogogo... Also it regularly freezes when doing anything intense! I suspect is related to the SD interface? I say this because copying any large files to the SD results in a timesout! i have tried the SD in other devices all works fine! I have tried several SD types and sizes all with same result!
Anybody have any suggestions? I dont believe its the rom becasue like i said booting up in MAGLDR results in freezes! PS i ahve Task29 and tried diff Radios..
Hope somebody can help
Thanks guys.

I suggest that you try reformatting your SD Card. Also it has been noted here that some SD cards don't work very well. Search for which. Then try installing Clockwork Recovery Mod. This will allow you to format the Nand to different sizes depending on the Phone you are using. The European HD2 LEO has a 512 Nand while the TMOBIUS American version is 1024. You can't install a nand that is intended for the American phone on the EU version. But you can install the smaller EU version on an American phone.
There is a lot to learn so search all of the different forums and all of the answers will be there.
Do not expect the answers to be spelled out easily. These people in these forums are mostly geeks who could care less whether you are a newby or not. Sink or swim.

Does your phone say T-Mobile on it?
Did u format your sdcard?

You should be in the Q & A forum, not this one.
Make sure you use 2.15 radio, and try a smaller rom like jan-willem3's MIUI as that does not rely on the SD card for data by default.

Dear confused nani,
SD android was so yesterday, wouldn't you want to have hd2 boot straight into android like how window os? It's called NAND android. Unless you like window 6.5 os or dual os then you should gone SD android. I'm throwing this out there just in case you don't know. If you decided to go NAND, follow my sig for the best pure latest android.

Is this 2.13 TMOUS Stock ROM?
I would suggest you to use Custom ROM that is compatible with SD Android. You can try Platinum Series by Laurentius26 (find the link in WM 6.5 ROM Development forum!). I used this rom for dual boot with SD Android (American Android AOSP)
To do that, you have to install HSPL 4 and Choose SPL 2.08 HSPL.
Do Task 29.
Flash a Custom ROM.and do HARD RESET. Let it fully boot and do Soft REset.
Place your SD Android Folder to the ROOT of your FORMATTED Micro SD Card.
Remember that the name of the folder must be "Android" (without quote). Few SD Android ROM has different folder name, so you might need to rename it.
Now within Android ROM folder, tap CLRCAD and tap HARET
It will boot to ANdroid. Keep in mind it will take around 20 Minutes. Be patient
If you still have a problem or need more detail, you can PM me
Good luck

yes its a 2.13 tmo usa stock rom...i will try this i just hope it works. thanx silverwind

first of all you needn't do a hspl to run an android sd build. first choose a build from the android sd build threads. i can suggest americandroid if 'sense' isn't so important for you. After you download the rom,unzip and find android folder in it. copy it to your hd2. tap clrcad then haret. first boot may take up to half an hour.

[04 MAR][MAGLDR/CWM][AUTO-INSTALL] EASY INSTALL OF MAGLDR And ClockworkMod Recovery!

hi mutil,
american droid is the one that i have been trying to install via sd card.i did hspl 2.08,changed radio to 2.15 and rom to platinum series..i was finally able to load droid but now i do not have internet service.so i just booted back up to platinum series where my internet service actually works.

HOW TO INSTALL ANDROID to internal memory, currently on SD card

can someone link me a how to or guide, i have the android on my sd running smoothly but i beed a guide on how to install it to the phones internal memory, i mean do i have to install windows stock rom in order to get it on the phone? or can i install it like it is now??? i just dont see any info on this partiicalluar situation

you cant (easily) move an sd build onto nand. You would probably do better to backup your contacts and stuff and go find a NAND rom you like the look of. start fresh.

i guess what im asking is there anything i need to do to prepare the device for the internal android install? i dont wanna copy and paste the install from sd to internal but im asking do i need to install windows 6.5 the original rom first or ican i just flasj it aka load it how my phone is now??? this i havent encoutered yet, and i want to make sure im doing all my steps right, if i need to just find a rom (NAND) and install it how they say???

and btw, the sd andorid version said it was nand but just on a sd build, weird huh? lol im also hearing that some of the sd builds are running faster than the NAND internal ones, can anyone speak of this?

ah well you may find that there are two download links in the thread perhaps? cant really comment, never taken much notice of sd android, , it never worked through haret/winmo for me, so i went straight to nand.

im using the gingerbread 2.3.7. by the way, is there any new ones or ones that you reccomend? im not picky just want somethign stable, fast and nice, htc sense or not doesnt matter let me know NAND btw

which one? half the roms are 2.3.7, just saying 'im on gingerbread 2.3.7' doesnt help much, , ,, far better to give the name, since there are so many variants.

here is the one i have
http://hottipscentral.com/how-to-install-android-gingerbread-2-3-7-on-the-t-mobile-htc-hd2/

is that the process you followed? If yes, then its already on nand rom. That article is about flashing typhoon (one of the most popular roms) to nand.

yes i followed it to a Tee, lol so your saying its already on the internal phone memory??? ok then so your saying i can take out my SD and it will still boot? hmmm and typoon is what the zip file i have says, can you help me a bit further im following you so far but want to make sure im seeing this right and doiong it step by step thx for replying

watch the video at the bottom of the page from youtube thats on there, thats the step i followed

sorry this is the one i have installed not sure how i got the other , but this is the correct one :Cyanogen MOD 7 Gingerbread 2.3.7

yea thats NAND. there isn't an sd version of typhoon.
yes you can take your sd out and it should boot. (if you have an EXT partition on your sd card ((i didn't watch the whole vid, but it wasn't mentioned)) then any apps you have installed wont be there till you reinsert teh sd card.)
you need to read read read, there are four or five important parts to nand android.
bookmark THIS starting point, and start browsing threads in the Q&A section and NAND development.
basically, your key components are
hspl 2.08.hspl - don't touch this again, android wont work on any other.
radio - fine, you wont need to touch this again any time soon, as with the hspl.
magldr, hold power to start it, the only option you will use is 8 - ad recovery, which starts cwm
cwm (cwr, clockworkmod clockwork, clockwork recovery) which is what starts when you choose AD recovery in magldr, you flash your roms from here, wipe your data from here, factory reset (back to android, not a real factory reset), , you can usb transfer in cwm, the one in magldr corrupts large files.
The cwm 'partition size' is 150 ( i think thats what he chose?) This is the inportant piece of info you need if changing to a different rom, since different roms need different sized system partitions.
You can change this in the tookit you used.

thx thx and thx!!! thats what i needed to know

Check out EasyAndroid, with it you can flash NAND Android from stock HD2 in 30min.
I like useing the clk loader as you do not see it load as you boot the phone, and you can use the android boot to recovery option.
if you already have and SD Android i would download TitaniumBackup and make a backup of all of your aps, as you can use this to save your aps across any Android Rom.
Have fun with NAND Android,

I don't have any clue what your actual question is supposed to mean, but if you can't install SD Android then it isn't anything to do with bad blocks. You need to give more information, such as which type of HD2 you have, what radio it has, do you have HSPL, what steps you've taken so far etc. Nobody can help without sufficient information.

I still don't quite understand what the actual issue is. Do ANY ROMs boot on your phone? The reason I ask is because you later contradict this original statement by saying something about A2SD moving your apps to the SD card.

A2SD does not install the ROM to NAND nor does it install NAND to SD. It install apps to your SD card, apps that you use on your phone.
NAND ROMs are flashed directly to your phone and completely remove Windows.
SD ROMS are ran from your SD card with your Windows still functioning when you want.

I have a hd2 too.
magldr 1.13 .... clockwormod 5.0.2.6 ... Nexushd2 ics 4.0.4 - rom... a2SD-Script ...
200mb nand-partition..5mb cache-partition.. 1 gb ext4-partition and 400 mb swap-partition
I installed my rom witht "hd2 toolkit 4.2.0.1", that can be downloaded here on "xda-developers".
With this tookit you can do followed things:
- Start with a "full wipe" called "task 29" (I think this "task 29" is necessary for your hd2, because of your problems and bad issues you are reporting)
- then partition your nand-memory (for first install i recommen 200mb nand an 40 mb cache - after you recognized that it works, you can reduce cashe to 10 or 5 mb)
- install magldr
- install clockworkmod recovery
- install your rom

there are a few process that you need to do, as of now you have WP7 which took up almost 99% of your SD card, so you must process that card so that you can either put an Android SD or Native SD, I hope your card is big enough to make other partitions.
Try the links below & use what ever you need, BTW if you made a mistake in the process you can't/ won't access your WP7 anymore
But you can make a back up image of your existing WP7 SD card to another card just in case.

So if this is possible would it be possible to triple boot, wp7, stock android, and android with htc sense?
Also, is the android installation on the video the same for every other android rom such as this http://www.ihelplounge.com/how-to-flash-mode-hd2-htc-android-with-htc-sense-35-custom-rom/ for example?

You've chosen a NAND ROM, you need to choose an SD ROM.
