Yes you Can.
in Magldr go to #8 AD recovery & if you have CWM you ca install Android in NAND, after that just copy an SD ROM to you SD & each time you boot you can direct which one to boot from. try the link below it might help

In his sig. Essentially, you flash NAND Android, then copy over the SD build to your SD card (with MAGLDR files if they're not included in the ROM). Then in MAGLDR go to services>boot settings>AD SD Dir and select the folder with your SD ROM in it. Then just boot AD SD and violá

i don't understand exactly, you want to drop dual boot and go android only on nand or reinstall android in dualboot?
I do not use WP7 so I may be telling you wrong here or telling you to do a massive over kill here. But I would think if you want to change your WP7 ROM it would be best to run a Task 29 to fully wipe your NAND ROM partition. Then reflash MAGLDR as the Task 29 will wipe it from your HD2. Next do a full wipe and reformat of your SD card. Easiest way of doing that is put it in a SD card adaptor and stick it in a digital camera and format it as this will remove the funky format WP7 does on your SD card and then format it again with your computer using fat 32. This will give you a clean slate to install a new WP7 ROM. Take the needed steps to partition your SD card so you can run Android again and copy your SD Android build to the card and then put your SD card back in your HD2 and flash your WP7 ROM using USB Flasher in MAGLDR.
Hope this helps.

Installing SD build to MAGLDR

Someone please help me out. I have tried this many times with different builds and got no success. I put the SD android folder on the root, then I do the rootfs and startup.txt crap(not sure if I'm doin it right), then I go to magldr, put the adsd directory, boot from SD, an it just stays on the boot screen. This happened with EVERY build, i don't know why. Some one please let me know how to get a SD build working on magldr. Maybe I did something wrong with rootfs....?

Well that is your problem then. You can only use SD Android builds with MAGLDR if you are running WP7. You can't use a SD build with MAGLDR if you are running Android from NAND.

Not true. I have Android on nand and an SD build booting from magldr. You just have to use a magldr-compatible build. The one in my sig listed AD SD works good. Little laggy, but its a DHD build so its to be expected.

I stand corrected then, I was under the understanding that you could not boot from SD card while running android from NAND. Thanks for the info and to the OP and anyone else that read my previous post I appologize for posting false information.
try to wait longer
i've waited longer than 15 minutes while trying to boot an sd card build
the first boot takes the longest.
what class is your sd card?

Hey jose makalolot,
thank you for your reply. I installed cwm (rom manager). But when I klick on recovery or install from sd card, my phone restarts, and windows mobile is on again. Do you have another idea?
Thank you

Hi,
I think Rom Manager is only for NAND,and specifically only for cLK.
Which sd ROM are you using?
I am using the Americanandroid sd version. I think so to, that's only for nand versions, but maybe there is a solution for sd versions.

You can't use any sort of cwm for SD builds, if you want this you will need to install magldr and then install cwm partition and boot via magldr.

[Q] WP7 installation despite NativeSD?

Hi Guys,
currently I have a Miui NativeSD Rom. It means the whole Android Rom is running at my SD Card. My questions is....can I install this WP7 ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833
with a another SD Card and my current not used NAND memory? I would change sometimes the Roms, between WP7 and Android but when I install WP7 I dont know whether crash my Native SD ROM?? Last question when I execute Task29, will be delete my current Nand ROM, but also Magldr??
Thanks!
hi, check out the links below it might help
& yes Task29 will wipe your NAND of any rom/ reccovery that's in there but leaves radio alone.
Ok if I understand aright, I follow the steps Task 29 / Install Magldr in the Boot Mode from HD2 Toolkit ( is a repartition to 300mb or 445mb recommend? Or can I skip the partition-step?)and then Clear SD MBR and uselast24Nand , execute this dwi from my WP7 Rom and installed WP7 on my NAND After this my Magldr is already there??! If yes I can change my SD Card so where I cand find my Native Files and boot from them??! ^^
OK , to do it. the nativesd roms wont be crashed. it only in ur sd card .

yes, that's what you should do. Card#1 for WP7 and Card#2 for SD or NativeSD.
but wp7 wont boot with the second card in slot. wp7 needs the first card(it formats and locks the card during installation)

No, windows is always on nand if you want to dual boot with android.
Why not try NativeSD android rom?
mengfei has a good tut on installing NativeSD android.

There a quite a few ROMs in the nand section (here)which also boot via NativeSD. Check the ROM title, but also check the first post since many ROMs omit NativeSD from the title. Your choice.

Sounds to me like you did not install the android rom! It is not the same as the now old type of "sd rom".
Go to recovery and select install zip from sdcard and select the rom on the sdcard and flash it selecting NativeSD install when asked.

If you want to dual boot wp7 and nativeSD, you have to install wp7 first.
When it comes to the partitioning, you need fat32 first (to the left), then ext4 (middle) and then the wp7 bit (to the right) all set as primary.
There is an old video for dual booting http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944288 don't use the DFT rom, use a newer one. After you have wp7 working with small partition, shrink the FAT32 partition and create an ext4 partition in the middle. Then put android ROM.zip and recovery onto fat32 and install as per rom instructions.
Hope this helps

I just did that, install win 7,8 first then make 3 partitions as you said, and then I was copy NexusHD2-JellyBean-CM10 V1.4a and 4EXTRecovery on sd-card. And then with 4EXTRecovery I was install Rom,after rebouting I was made boot to nativsd. And I got new problem when I go to boot from sd I got on screen load and everything is good but after go go go! I get screen witf HTC logo and after that my phone restarts I was try 5 times an it always seam.what I was do wrong?
"thanks" on last post was my fault .
It seem that you didn't prepared nand . All of these ROM need some space for install in nand. If you read the first post on the ROM you choose , you can find how to prepare it.
Remember that maybe you must reinstall even WP7 after you have prepared nand.
Personally I use Tytung NativeSd ROM with Wp7 on nand for just about 1 year. And everything run fine.
Plees sorry for my poor English
