I would get another ROM and reflash it, whether it's a ZIP ROM (CWM) or a NAND ROM via DFT.
it would be awsome if you could send me a link to a good rom? android or windows? realy need this to work

Well there's lots of good roms out there... they are all very easy to flash back and forth from. I hate to say which one is "better" than another as that is purely subjective and everyone has a differing opinion. However, it seems a lot of people really like Sergios, MDJ's and CMYXLGO's ROMs. As a start you may want to check out one of those... Here is a link to the main Android NAND forum.
I have
•HSPL3 ~ SPL-2.08.HSPL
•Radio that support 576 RAM
•DFT MAGLDR Bootloader
•ClockworkMod Recovery
Installed.
Can you send a link to a rom that supports clockwork? i dont realy care witch one just one that works. am e newbie in this just got the phone yesterday, and now i kinda afraid i cant fix it :/ :/

If it turns on and will boot to the bootloader, it's fixable So don't worry that much! Try out Sergio's ROM. It supports CWM. If you do use that one be sure to back up your SD card as you have to repartition it.
The steps to install it are:
Code:
HD2 COREDROID Desire HD V1
1. Extract downloaded zip to a folder of your choice
2. Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz and zImage) to the root of your sd card
3. Boot into magldr and select USB Flasher option while phone is connected to PC
4. Run DAF.exe included in the zip and follow onscreen instructions.
5. After complete devise will reboot in magldr chose "Boot AD SD" option
6. Device will boot into Clockwork Recovery
7. Select advanced
8. Select Partition SD card (remember too backup all valuable data you have on SD Card)
9. Selet (minimum 512M)(maximum 1024M) Chose what fits best for you Recomended size 1024M
10.Select Swap 0M
11.Wait for the process too finish (do not restart device stay in ClockWork recovery)
12.Connect the Device into USB
13.select mounts and storage
14.select mount USB storage
15.Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz, zImage) to the root of your sd card
16.Copy CoreDroid_HD_HD2_v*.zip to the root of your sd card
17.Press back key after finish
18.Press back key once more
19.Select install zip from sdcard
20.Select choose zip from sdcard
21.Select CoreDroid_HD_HD2_v* file and then confirm
22.Wait for it too finish
23.After flash options pop up again Press back Key
24.select reboot system now
25.Let it boot wait about +-10Min Enjoy
I haven't really examined the guide you followed that much, but make sure you have installed a recent version of Magldr (i.e. the one you can download in the official Magldr thread in the WinMo subforum, version 1.11 to be precise). The first version(s) have been notorious for the Gogogo! bug persistently affecting some users.
Just a fyi, ignore this if you already have this v1.11
I got the aMagldr V1.11
The rom you sendt me doesnt work, it stopps here:
Run DAF.exe included in the zip and follow onscreen instructions.
i allredy installed a Daf.exe can that be the problem?

No, because it's not really an installer, but a flasher. I'm not really an expert on the CWM issues, but it seems to me like formatting your SD card(do a full format, not the quick one) might help you, since it's quite probably your SD card being the *****.
It may not help you, but if you've got a few minutes I'd say give it a shot. Don't forget to backup important SD (NAND isn't affected) first of course!
Oh, and there's also this small chance that your CWM download is corrupt. Not sure if that would give the gogogo error though.
Sorry for being a complete newb, but how do i do the hard format?
but do i need the DAF.exe to install the rom?
You'd have to format in Windows (which I assume is the OS you're running), which now that I think of it may be a bit of a problem. I don't think you can mount your SD card with Magldr, which means that you'd have to use an external card reader. If you don't have that, you'd have to reflash WinMo to format, but since that's quite some more work for something that I can't even guarantee to be a solution you might wanna hold on to other suggestions.
DAF.exe is the tool which flashes CWM to your phone. Some other tools and/or ROMS use the same name for their flasher though.
after this one :
8. Select Partition SD card (remember too backup all valuable data you have on SD Card)
9. Selet (minimum 512M)(maximum 1024M) Chose what fits best for you Recomended size 1024M
10.Select Swap 0M
i can't do **** i cant open the device in windows. is there no way i can just system recover the whole device? or do i have to rom it?..
realy need this to be working, prefer android but windows is okey

It sure is no brick, as long as you can boot into bootloader (turn on phone while keeping volume down pressed) there's no problem at all. No need to return it either.
If you feel really desperate try the WinMo thing, you've got nothing to lose except for about 30 minutes of your time.
winmo thing? is there any guide?
if i download a format program i can format the sd card..
1. Flash WinMo, this should be no problem in bootloader
2. I think it's possible to format your SD card within WinMo. I've never used WinMo actually so I can't give instructions on that.
If you can't find it or if it isn't possible, mount your SD card so you can see it in Windows. Backup data if necessary. Then right click on it (in Windows), and choose format, then disable quick format which should be selected by default. After the format you should have a clean SD card.
4. Flash Magldr again, following instructions in the official Magldr thread. Download a new copy off xda, to eliminate the possibity of just having had a corrupt download.
6. Flash CWM, following instructions in the official CWM thread.
7. Flash ROM.
Edit: I used WinMo where I meant the mobile OS, and Windows where I meant the pc OS.
I did format the SD card, nothing new just that CWM disapeard.
Now its loading with aMagldr v1.11
And i Have Spl-2.08. Hspl 8g Xe
Can anyone send me a link to a good Win 6.5 rom and anykind of guide?
Similar to running Leoimg.nbh through boot screen...is it possible or does it require a pc?
Hi,
I have the same question since I broke my USB on the phone. (This is not covered by the warrenty)
I also like to know if it is posible if I can update HSPL.
Radio is posible and Rom by clockworks too.
Basicly I also like to know how the ROM organisation is and what is where in the rom and how the boot order is in the device.
Thanks.
anyone?

No - you need a USB connection to a PC.
USB Port Damaged
Hi,
I would really like to install magldr but my USB port is damaged. Does anybody know if anybody is developing a version of magldr that can be installed from the SD card. I already have hspl 2.08.
Thanks in Advance!

I have not heard of anyone working on a way to to do this and franckly I don't beleive it will ever be possible. The reason I say this is bootloader only recognizes the file name loeimg.nbh when it searches for a ROM on the SD card. This type of file the .nbh is a file extension spacific for HTC devices runnin Windows Mobile and Andriod. the .nbh is a HTC Hermes ROM image wich is a ROM update utility. So you see it is spacificaly for used with ROMs and MAGLDR is a different type of bootloader not a ROM. There for the regular bootloader will not allow it to be flashed cause it does not meet predifined specifications for bootloader to flash it even if you added the .nbh extension to it. You would have to modifiy the original bootloader to achive this and I don't think you can modifiy it in this manner. You can not even come up with a seperate bootloader for it as any other bootloader has to run in sequence after the original bootloader just like MAGLDR does. So I very highly doubt that flashing MAGLDR will ever be possible, sorry friends.
I am also looking for a solution
My USB post is damaged by a high voltage from my car charger..
Ok guys I may have been completely wrong with my last post. I just yesterday flashed MAGLDR to my HD2 for the first time just to gain some hands on experience with it. I noticed yesteday that when you flash MAGLDR it uses a ROM update utility to flash it to the HD2. I also noticed that when you extract the files for MAGLDR this is this is what you get.
DAF
DAF
EnterBootloader
ErrorBattery.fig
ErrorUSB.fig
magldr.nbh
modelID.fig
rapitool
ROMUpdateUtility.cfg
ROMUpdateUtility
RUUGetInfo
RUUResource.dll
Notice the magldr.nbh file? This is the file the ROM update utility flashes when you flash MAGLDR. It also removes the current ROM on your HD2 when you flash MAGLDR. So knowing what I know about flashing a ROM or Radio from SD card, and now knowing this information on MAGLDR. I think it might be possible to flash MAGLDR via SD card. I mean it seems to me all you would have to do is rename the magldr.nbh file to leoimg.nbh. Then copy it to the root of your SD card and flash it like a ROM or radio from SD card. I have not personally tried it yet cause I have not had time to back up my wife's SD card and reformat it yet. I have to use hers because she has a 2GB card and I have the 16GB. But if anyone else would like to test my theory feel free, but I hold no responsability if you decide to try this and it goes bad.
Ok, I did find out you can install magldr by updating through SD like T-Macgnolia mentioned, CWM you can just put in the root of the SD and then works correct. The next problem I have is the partitioning CWM uses. Everywhere I looked I only see that the partitioning is done by USB flashing, Is there a posabilety to partitioning different?

Hi
OrsoNerOne
thanks for the tip!
So is cwm magldr a special version of magldr?
I tried renaming version 1.3 and renaming to leoimg.nbh but it gets stuck on grey screen displaying -loading......
Should partition my sd first? Do I use any partitioning software, if so?
Thanks t-magnolia for the possibility of doing this!

No CWM is a recovery program much like native.Android devices have. It allows you to flash a Android ROM with the. zip file on your SD card just like a native Android device it also allows you to flash updates via your SD card and make a Nand Droid back up of your Android before flashingva update or new ROM and then use that back up to restore your settings apps and all once you have flashed the update or ROM. You can also use it to do a system recovery (this is like a hard reset for Win No) of your Android ROM if the need arises.
MAGLDR is a custom bootloader that allows you to flash Android or WP7 to a HTC HD2. Just as the bootloader for Win Mo starts up and allows Win Mo to boot, note you do not see the bootloader like you do MAGLDR but trust me bootloader runs first on boot up of Win No. MAGLDR also allows you to do a system recovery but CWM does it more like a native Android device would. MAGLDR is a very powerful and functional bootloader that can do way more than the Win Mo bootloader, but it just can not boot Win Mo yet lol kinda funny isn't it. Anyway read the CWM and MAGLDR threads they will teach you alot. Check my sig for links to both.
One more thing MAGLDR and CWM allows you to have access to your SD card as a mass storage device. MAGLDR has a Mass Storage option and CWM has a mount SD option. Oh and by the way you do not want to partition your SD card. You want it freshly formatted with fat 32 if at all possible, of course make a back up of hour intuit SD card before formatting it.
Thanks for the thanks but I did not make flashing MAGLDR and CWM via SD card. This was done by the rest devs that created these programs. I just happen to notice that it is posinle because the used .nbh files for both of them. Now this was either out of necesiety or out of some good pre planning of the devs. But the .nbh file is a file specific to HTC devices so you all desire Wichita one it was lol.

Hello t-magnolia,
So my .situation is that I have hsol 2.08 and my usb port won't work at all. I don't have magldr installed and am still booting android via winmo.
So if I want to install a nand based rom, what should the steps be please?
I have tried renaming magldr.nbh to leoimg.nbh and put it in the root of my sd. However, it goes.into a grey screen and displays 'loading.........' In blue text and just hangs.

Your problem is either you need to reformat your SD card with Fat 32 or you are using to large GB SD card. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but even if you get MAGLDR on your HD2 you still will npot be able to Flash a NAND Android ROM with out a working USB. Yes you can flash a NAND Android ROM via SD card using Clock Work Mod Recovery(CWM) but you still have to have a functioning USB port to flash CWM to your HD2. Sorry my friend but you will have to get your change your mainboard to get a working USB port befor you can go NAND Android with your HD2.
Haven't read the whole thread but once you've flashed MAGLDR it would be useless as you need a USB connection to flash CWM or a ROM.

Thanks for the explanation. I guess the sd alternative will have to do! At least there seems to be support for this still.
You also have CLK thesedays but personally i still use CVM.
Do you know if there will be a version of clk with integrated cwm?
Is there a possibility that we can have 2 Android OS simultaneously i.e, MAGLDR version & SD Card version..???
If so, is there a bootloader that let's us select the version as we had in the SD card ROMs..???
You can use this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783
to install MAGLDR and Clockwork recovery.
Get a CWM NAND ROM and put the rom.zip on your phone's sd card and flash it via Clockwork.
Then get an sd build, extract it to your sd card, and follow all the installation steps in the thread you downloaded it from.
You boot the sd build from the MAGLDR menu by chooding AD SD, but first you must set your sd directory. To do this, in the MAGLDR menu choose Services, BootSettings, then AD SD Dir, and choose the directory of your sd build.
Once you have flashed MAGLDR and CWM, you must hold down the Power button while booting up your phone to get to the MAGLDR menu.
Make sure you flash the right partition size for the ROM you'll be flashing to NAND

Dear all,

I'm currently trying to install an Android dual boot setup. I installed a NAND Android (TBD SensationXL v2.5) which works already quite well for me. Now I tried to start an SD Android Build via Magldr. But none except ICS Beta 5 starts. All other start showing their Boot splash but phone boots never the less to NAND Android.
Has anyone an Idea, what the problem could be?

Your steps should be as follows
1. Download an SD Android ROM with MAGLDR contents as well
2. Rename folder to whatever you like but the startup.txt MUST have rel_path= same name as folder
3. Place folder on root of SD card
4. Go to Services>AD SD Dir>Desired folder (in MAGLDR)
5. Select 'Boot AD SD' (or whatever the Android SD boot option is)
Oh, and reactivating the thread is infinitely better then starting a new one
Dear Nigeldg,

I'm just wondering why the ICS SD build boots normal while every other tested SD build won't boot

Hi,
I am a complete newb to HTC and know hardly anything about installing a NAND rom on my HTC HD2.
I bought the phone recently on Ebay, it was running windows 6.5 but I wanted to change it to the latest Android rom. I just want it to be Android, run smooth and fast, be able to access android store and get latest apps, have wifi, 3GS and all the features that the phone can handle.
Basically I am stuck on the MAGDLR V1.12 main screen after following mskip's guide on flashing a HD2. I installed HARDSPL 2.08 and flashed MAGDLR 1.13.
I then followed 'langthang's' guide on installing his latest rom updated on 31 Jan by 'flashing Recovery with edit' then done a partition recovery v1.13 150MB ( this is where I think I may have chosen to little). This is where I am stuck at and do not know what to do next on installing a rom.
I know this may seem very 'newb' to many of you but I would be grateful for your guidance on just installing a good rom.
Thanks

install cwm recovery (latest is 5.0.x.x) again with correct partition size required by the rom. you need to edit flash.cfg and enter the correct size e.g.150 or 200 etc..

How do I edit the flash.cfg and actually go about putting the rom on the sd card using MAGDLR, I amconfused on that aswell do I extract the rom to my desktop or just put the rom zip file straight on the SD??

Also do I have to put the rom on the SD card to extract it from cwm recovery, not by going into USB mass storage mode??

I would suggest installing notepad++, you open the CWM folder you download and right click the flash.cfg file. Then you can edit the recovery size there.
I would suggest that you do not use MAGLDR to transfer a rom to your sdcard as there is a good chance it will corrupt, file transfer is still unstable. Just flash the correct recovery size, then boot into recovery from MAGLDR and transfer the rom to your sdcard there.
Do not extract the rom zip by the way, just place the whole zip on your sd and flash that.
What do I exactly edit?? Where is the CWM folder?? I still do not get this part at all, can someone guide me through it..
I flashed the recovery size through the HDToolKit...
Also, when putting the ROM on the SD Card, Do I have to take out the SD and put the ROM on that way with a adapter on my PC, OR can I just boot into recovery from MAGLDR and then connect my phone via USB with the SD inside and transfer it that way??

If you look at the flash.cfg in Langthang's thread, yours should look exactly like that when opened (make sure to open flash.cfg, not flash.cfg.txt) in notepad++ or whatever notepad type thing (not MS Word) and just change yours to look the same as the example one then save it. You should only have to change the numbers. Flash the new recovery then copy the ROM as a zipped folder onto your sd card using a card reader if possible. Boot into recovery then select install zip from SD card, select your file and there you go, one working HD2 with Android

Also, when putting the ROM on the SD Card, Do I have to take out the SD and put the ROM on that way with a adapter on my PC, OR can I just boot into recovery from MAGLDR and then connect my phone via USB with the SD inside and transfer it that way??

Ok I attached the recovery that I use with Team Blue Droid (credits to Dansta for porting it for us)
Open that .7z file and extract the folder to somewhere on your computer. Open the folder and inside you will see a bunch of files (one of which is the flash.cfg).
Now right click that and edit it with either notepad or notepad++ and adjust the recovery size as need for the rom of your choice. Save it and then while booting into MAGLDR connect your phohne to your PC.
Select the Daf.exe file and let it run, once completed you will have successfully flashed your recovery. Just boot into recovery from MAGLDR and then select mount usb (I believe that is the option). Then you can mount your sdcard and copy the rom that way. Once done just flash the rom with the install zip from sdcard option.
Post if you have more questions
HI,
First I've written a guide to magldr and clk, so if you want a little extra info it may help.
Second, I would recommend the program called "HD2 Toolkit" Their is a link to it also in my guide.
You need to consider updating to magldr 1.13 if you are going to use magldr, things will just work better with the latest version. Also unless you have a very good idea of what you're doing, the new clk1.5 rc1 is probably your best bet, it makes everything so much simpler.
But back to your magldr problem and the hd2 toolkit program, this program is an automatic flasher for the hd2, magldr clk and cwm.
OK thanks. What Roms do u reckon I download?? I want all the general features and Appstore..

You know it really depends on your preference as there is a wide range. There are Sense roms (2.1-3.5) AOSP roms, CM7 roms, MIUI roms, and CM9/ICS roms. The choice is really up to you
OK thanks alot for the help guys, learnt alot. Managed to sort it all out and installed this Rom on it, everything looks to be working fine.
Thank You!

Awesome, which rom did you end up going with?
Hi,
I am not very experienced with android installation and after trying few times now the phone is maybe bricked?
I only have cLK black screen with some lines of text (such as MsDOS prompt).
How can I fix it?
I would like to install either Windows 7 or Android 4.04.
Which one is better/faster?
But first I need to fix the phone if possible?

The screen you see with the text is just clk it self. Because you do not have a ROM for clk to boot you are seeing this screen. Click on the HD2 guid in my link and it will walk you through how to instll Clockwork Mod Recovery so you can flash a ROM. Or ypou can use the HD2 NAND Toolkit to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery. Or you can also just download the latest version of clk that is also linked in my guide also as it already has Clockwork Mod Recovery included with it.
Thanks for help and info.
I guess this is the link you are referring to:

?
There are so many options, I have no idea where to start? What is the most simple solution? And how do I put Android on it?
Also, I am not sure if my battery is about 30% full, is it possible to charge it before I proceed. The red light does not come on.
Thanks
Hi
If you want to change your ROM with one another like Android NAND ROM or Windows 6.5 ROM, then use this steps.
For NAND Android ROM; You must flollow this sequence;
first check your device if it is 2.08.HSPL, and format your sdcard ext3 or ext4 and 1gb primary (which one you must use is pointed out by your Android chief). Copy new Android ROM into your sdcard's FAT32 (it must be primary again) section. insert it into your HTC device.
1. do task29
2. install radio rom 2.15.50.14
3. install magldr 1.13
4. do recovery 5.0.2.6
5. do clear cache and dalvik cache.
6. Choose your android ROM .zip file on sdcard, load and enjoy...
For Windows 6.5 Follow this sequence;
Choose a proper win 6.5 ROM for you and, check your device if it is 2.08.HSPL, Format your sdcard like FAT 32 primary partition. insert it into your HTC device.
1. do Task29
2. Install Radio ROM 2.15.50.14
3. Run LeoCustomRUU.exe like "Run as Administrator" which Windows 6.5 rom you chose to use.
HD2Toolkit ; it contains Task29, Magldr, Recovery, Clk and HSPL tools.

Radio ROM 2.15.50.14;
www.mediafire.com/?1th8o158r2t6dba
Or more simple one
-Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from an original win 6.5 ROM and copy it to your SD card.
- Rename to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset your device while pressing the volume down button.
regards...
Sorry guys, it sounds to complicated to me.
How do I format those partitions?
Any software?
do I do it from PC?
my phone is not working at present

What to I do in order to install latest android?
Step by step if possible?

Which Android ROM do you have in hand? Did you look for any android ROM, or which one do you want?
Some steps depends on your ROM which you have chosen.
I am still using an old Android ROM. You must choose a ROM firstly.
First off all the SD card partitioning is not needed to get Android running on your HD2. No offense to powerofthink but they are making this way more complicated than it has to be. The only real thing you need to be sure of is that your SD card is formatted with Fat 32, But most SD cards come formatted this way.
Now download clk 1.5 by Rick_1995, from his clk thread. This version already has Clockwork Mod Recovery included in it so you will have CWM when you flash this file. You flash it just like you flashed the other versionn of clk you flashed before.
Next download the ROM of your choice. Then boot into CWM by holding down the home button while you boot your HD2 up. When you see CWM appear on the screen use the volume buttons to scroll down to "Mounts and storage" and press the send button. Next connect your device to your computer via USB cable and then scroll down to "-mount USB storage" and press the send button. This will allow you to transfer your ROM's .zip file to your SD card by allowing your computer to mount your SD card as a removable. Go to the Windows Start Menu and click on computer and you should see your SD card listed as a removable drive, click on it then copy and past your ROM .zip file to your SD card. Once you have your ROM transferred to your SD card go back to your device and go back to the main menu of CWM by pressing the back button on your device. This will on mount your SD card from your computer. Next scroll down to "-install zip from sdcard" in the main menu of CWM and press the send buttonn. Then scroll down to "-choose zip from sdcard" and press the send button. Now scroll down until you see the .zip file for your ROM and select it by pressing the send button. Select yes in the next menu and let the ROM install. After the ROM is done installing use the back button to go back to the main menu of CWM and select reboot now. Then just let yopur device boot all the way up to the lock screen of the ROM and unlock it and go through the setup.
It is no need to partion when you use clk because clk does all the partitioning for you, unlike MAGLDR which you have to manually re partition manually when you change ROMs.
well I would like to install latest 4.04 ice cream sandwich, but modded for speed if possible?
my card is formatted in fat32 8gig.
Any links for that sort of ROM including procedure for beginners?
I am even more confused now
cheers
I can not do anything.
When I try to either use MAGLDR or cLK, phone responds more and less, but when it comes to progress bar it stays at 0% all the time regardless what procedure I want to do.
e.g.
Starting To Perform MAGLDR Installation
Setting Up Environment for MAGLDR
Starting Installation in 3
Starting Installation in 2
Starting Installation in 1
Checking phone for information!
Starting MAGLDR Installation, Check progress on Phone screen.
Is it a problem that I have cLK installed from before, in cLK progress is also at 0%.
I tried to use official Windows ROM 6.5 from HTC page but does not work too.
Did I brick the phone?
