Same here. Maybe its something to do with UK Hd2's.
I followed all the instructions too, and kept getting stuck in the boot screen loop.
Back to Nand for me... one thing, on screen before screen to flash zip it says can't find misc, even when I make a misc folder it makes no difference. Good luck to you anyway.

Can you tell us what you're doing and what happens?

i Copy contents of copytosdroot folder to the root of my sd.then i boot into magldr and go into USB Flasher whilst still connected to my laptop,Run DAF,when thats done i again boot into magldr and tap Boot AD SD but it keep failing to go into Clockwork,i keep getting soming like k:Music/zimage not found or failed to load kernal even tho ive fully formated my sd,its really anoying,i cant try out any new roms exept nand,Really frustrating

I had problems running like this initially - what worked was putting the 'copytosd' files in a folder on the SD Card (I used 'ADSD'), then changing the Boot AD SD folder option in the Settings menu to that new folder ('ADSD').
Then try using 'Boot AD SD' option.
For some reason it did not like the root folder initially (though it now seems to work fine).

Use Panasonic SD Card formatter & re format the SD card & try again, I had the same issues but now its resolved..!!!

Guys,
Mine works as well so not a UK issue
Did you follow the instructions using DAF and indicated that it was successful but when you try to 1: boot from sd nothing happens or it flashes and returns to the MAGLDR screen?
I had an issue with the root folder as well, create a folder \recovery and copy the 2 root files intrid.gz and zimage to the \recovery and goto services and change the boot to folder to \recovery.
Important reboot before trying as MAGLDR does not change the folder until after a reboot.
Boot from SD and should be OK
Or at least was for me

Now Nand has came out it has inspired a lot to create their own Android builds and new chefs make mistakes. Not trying to blame chefs in general but some do make mistakes.
Also when we used to load up the builds from SD card, I would say 8 times out of 10 I would use a data.img which hasnt been used before. Now if you go from a Sense build to a non-Sense build, and you are using a data.img in app2sd, then they are not properly matched so a-b might go to a-c and miss b out if you know what I mean. What I do is use a data.img for Sense, another for Sense HD/Z, another one for Gingerbread and another for Miui and these are on my Desktop. When I load up a different builds like Sense to Miui, then I will move the data.img from .data or data2sd folder off the memory card and then overwrite the data.img I have on the Desktop for Sense and replace it for my Miui data.img.
I know it sounds tedious but I found it to help.
Also for the new App2SD+, I create the partition using ClockWorkMod instead of another application. I will use Partition Wizard for Windows to delete a partition and resize the fat32 partition back to the full use of the memory card but always partition and create EXT3 partition using ClockWorkMod.
Hope this helps.

i have a slightly different problem: I can boot into clockwork recovery after copying the copy-to-sd files and use it as a partitioning tool. But cant actually complete the installation as I keep getting errors when i run the DAF file from CWM folder in USB flasher option of MAGDLR, so cant actually use it for recovery !!!!

Rom Issues Please Help

Hi,
I am trying to install this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1326217
I recently bought a new sd card from 1 gb to 16 gb as I like Sense roms.
My procedure is as follows:
step1) task 29:
turn off phone
turn on holding volume down-so you'll go to bootloader screen
be sure you see 'usb' in screen (not 'serial')
in nand toolkit click task29 and choose proper options in each screen.
step2) flashing radio:
in phone go to bootloader screen again
in nand toolkit at bottom click browse an find your radio.nbh in pc then click install RUU(when it comes to 96% it will wait for a while its normal)
step3) flashing mgldr:
in phone go to bootloader screen
in toolkit click install mgldr(at bottom)
4) now in mgldr go to usb flasher.be sure you see usb flasher.....usb in screen
in nand toolkit choose mgldr repartition (at left top)
choose 400mb partition size(at left)
write 4 instead of 45 as cache size
click repartition at right bottom.so you'll have repartitioned your nand.
5) mgldr menu go to ad recovery-advanced-partition sd card-1024-0
(so you'll have an sd-ext partition of 1gb which is necessary for this and many other roms)
then in mgldr menu (you can go to this menu by rebooting or pulling out battery) go ad recovery-mounts and storage-mount usb storage-when pc sees phone, send rom to phone
6) mgldr menu-ad recovery-install zip from sd-choose zip from sd-find your rom and choose with call button-after installation is complete reboot phone-after approximately 20 minutes the phone will be ready.
Where am I going wrong?

After doing all that, I get a message saying " kernal missing" or something along those lines.
Is the above procedure correct ?

Why dont you try all of your steps mentioned except 2 & 5?? A new radio does not need to be flashed every time. Also the systemshouldcreate its own partion upon boot.

Wait step 5 is wrong. Mass storage within magldr is glitched. You need to use a card writer to put your rom onto your sd card. Sorry i didn'tcatch that at first. Also you still should not have to flash a new radio everytime.

Its something about transferring data, I'm not certain exactly what. I would assume the file isn't transferred right over magldr interface and somehow parts of the rom become not right for lack of better terms. I read once to not transfer files using magldr because 1.13 is glitched. I'm not 100% sure what it is. Just try a card reader and see if that helps. Unless your dual booting I prefer clk .

What exactly does it do turning on? Kernal missing .. does it boot loop, freeze or restart?

Step 5.5 ... in cwm - mounts and storage (or something) - mount SD card - copy over your rom.
This will show your SD on the PC, and unlike the magldr USB storage the cwm one works. No card reader necessary.

I normally just mount and copy it over and that copies it over.
But the problem is after flashing, when magldr starts I get a message in the lines of "Kernel missing" and it stops.
Does my steps differ to anything you would suggest?

Just follow your steps minus the radio flashing as you only have to do this once (which I'm sure you have already done since you have been using custom roms). Then instead of using MAGLDR to transfer the rom, boot into CWR first and then using mounts and storage, transfer it there. It sounds like MAGLDR is corrupting the file transfer (as it usually does).
Just start over with task29 then skip the radio flashing and adjust your steps to transferring the rom over through CWR.

Yes you are. Place the Android folder with MAGLDR files on the root of your SD card and then boot into MAGLDR. Select services>AD SD Dir>Android (or whatever your folder name is) then go back to MAGLDR main menu and select 'boot AD SD'.

[Q] Magldr Boot Ad SD

Hi,
I notice that some builds can be booted Via Magldr SD,
How do I do this,
I have Runny on NAND,
Do I just download the ROM add it to "Android folder" and hit "Boot AD SD" in MAGLDR?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
I don’t think add ROM to Android folder is a good idea in order to not disturb your NAND build. Use different SD or rename your downloaded Android folder lets say Androidsd.
Steps for first boot:
1- Copy folder (Androidsd) to SD Card.
2- Boot in MAGDLR powering on your phone while you press the power button until MAGDLR appears.
3- Select "SERVICES"
4- Select "BOOT SETTINGS"
5- Select "AD SD Dir"
6- Select the "Androidsd" folder
7- Now select "BOOT AD SD" and wait boot
Next boot you can skip steps 3 to 6.
Have fun!

I don't know what folders have you on ÿour SD card. You have to press vol down button till you reach the folder where you drop the ROM

Hi,
The folder is not listed, only these random names !?!
Does the ROM need to be zipped?
Thanks

This is a good build, it says magldr but there is a Claret and Haret in there also
You can install magldr to the phone please have HSPL and latest radio installed.
When you install magldr it WILL remove wm6.5 and you will have to re flash a wm6.5 rom to the phone, not the offical one as it will remove magldr,
You could always try flash ICS or WP7, there is a speed boost in nand

Thanks... So installing magldr will wipe my current winmo, and I'd have to flash a cooked winmo rom? Thanks for the info. I'd just like to clarify, so, I CAN have both magldr and winmo 6.5 both at the same time? And I can still switch between an android sd rom and the winmo 6.5?

I do belive you can only dual boot WP7 and Android (Windows Phone 7 on NAND & Android on SD Card)
Not to sure about wm6.5 as I am not a dev,
You can defently dual boot wp7 and sd android though

Just a thought, practicly all SD builds come with Claret and haret included, if not you can usually download some files or there included,
I think you should install NAND android if you like android or boot Haret and Claret,
sorry if i sound like a ****, I dont mean to be

And magldr WILL remove your WinMo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033537
Sorry for being misleading, you cannot dual boot WP6.5 and SD android via MAGLDR
:S

Awww... too bad. Can't let go of winmo 6.5 alex, a very important app is still sticking to this OS. ^_^
Thanks for the replies though. I'm happy with android SD for the moment. ^_^

Ok mate good stuff, most builds that say magldr/sd will have claret and haret others usually have a post to add in, good luck mate!

Just to bring this alive again,
Any ideas?
When in BOOT AD SD Dir I get random figures and not folders,
I am running TBD Runnymead with EXT4 partition,
Thanks,

For booting the ROM via MAGLDR follow the following options :
1.) Make sure its the SD build you have downloaded.
2.) Check the startup.txt file for "rel_path=foldername". If you named the folder with android as "Androidsd" then it should look like
"rel_path=Androidsd"
boot
3.) remove anything written after this like nand=1 or wince=1
4.) enter bootloader. When on magldr, go to Services > Boot Settings > AD SD Dir
select "Androidsd" as the directory.
5.) Boot AD SD
then u should be able to boot.
If you are not able to enter AD SD DIR tab, remove the memory card and reinsert.

How to dual boot Latest builds of WP7 and Android JB

Hi I was wondering if anyone can guide me through dual booting the latest WP 7.8 build and Android JellyBean v.1.2. I love both but can't seem to dual boot both. It's either one or the other.Thanks in advance.

But that forum doesn't say what to do once you install WP7. Like how to install android JB to dual boot both. I want to dual boot the latest builds for both.

Emm... It says you must do reset of you phone from settings (or hard reset from magldr). Then you should don't let your phone boots (just stay in magldr). Remove your card from phone and put it to PC's card reader. Use MiniTool Partition Wizard to create more partitions (fat32 and ext4). And there you go. Try to boot WP7. If it boots normaly just install Android as NativeSD.
You will be lost any of your data on SD.
I think those tutorial is clearly enough. Hope you can repeat all of this steps.

lojjj, I too have attempted to follow that series of tutorials, and finally succeeded, but due specifically to the part you are mentioning, it took me HOURS. There is no "Touch", "Recovery" or "Tap" folder on a freshly partitioned SD card with 4extRecovery on it. The instructions are absolutely extraneous and cause confusion. Moreover, instructions for using HD2Toolkit to partition the card are useless for triple booting if one has already partitioned using a card reader in your computer. Yes, it can be done, but doesn't need to be done if one has followed the instructions up to that point.
The other problem is that one needs to combine three or more tutorials just to do this, and they sometimes have different options, but no reason given for choosing those options. This may be the best tutorial out there, pictures and everything, but still a far cry from being perfect or complete. Oh, and sometimes the tutorials are continued in another post, which also leads to confusion.

You're looking for this ones? The link provides at the top of first post. There are a lot of recoveries with NativeSD support. You need to download one of them, unpack and copy to root of SD Card. And then you can get to Magldr > Service > Boot Setting > AD SD Dir > Recovery.
Maybe I'm wrong cause I never did such things. Good luck :fingers-crossed:
