Hello,
Is there any other option to flash recovery, beside the magldr method, like adb push or some app? I can't get my computer to work with the recovery installer for magldr, and for some reason I don't have a recovery in the phone although I have a custom Rom flashed on it. I have to add that all of that was done before I bought it and I don't really know much about flashing things on HD2 because it is different from other natively android devices. Please help

AFAIK 4EXTRecovery/ TWRP & other recoveries work the same way, give a the link below a try there are links to those recoveries & also how to use NativeSD.
Thanks, I'll give it a try

Yep, try what mengfei said, or alternatively you can flash cLK 1.5 which comes with CWM built in.

Sorry if this is the wrong place. I tried installing Froyo AOSP(2.2.2) for Tattoo v0.45 released but the phone enterer a boot loop and I had to do a restore. How can I know the Recovery version I'm using? I can see it was created by MAVERIX but I don't even know if it is the recovery I'm supposed to have.
Thanks
Use ClockworkMod which comes together with ROM Manager

I personally never liked CWM. Always loved Amon Ra's.
I prefer 4EXT because it has more options.

4ext all the way
And no you can't have 2 different recoveries you could have both apps installed and just flash cwm or 4 ext and then flash the other and switch that way

Cwm. Does what is for and is simple. Less prone to **** **** up. Ext4 is too complicated in my opinion.

4EXT is very useful in 1 thing - it shows the partition sizes and free space. SUPER-useful.
In all the other aspects I don't care what to use, as long as both support the faster TAR backup.
(damn, I haven't been to recovery in ages... since VU 2.37 came out).
4EXT. More functional (switching back and forth on file systems) automatically adds ROM name on backups, and is themeable.
and the paid app is awesome.

I'm using MIUI.us, and its Updater works well with 4ext, while with CMW works only with ROM Manager. I switched to 4ext then.
I tried also the "touch" version, it works for me though I don't use it frequently.
4ext...
I double 4ext.
Yes, it has many features, and it is not necessary to use all of them.
However, some of them are really nice like the native ability to check md5sums, verify if there is storage space etc.
And the touch version- good bye to the volume up/down and power buttons It is something completely different, and makes it fun to flash things.
Flashing cwm/4ext back and forth is not a problem- I accidentally flashed cwm a couple of times via rom manager without noticing, flashed back 4ext.
4ext for the "wipe 'em all" option.
4ext, yes cwmr is polished more, but 4ext though has some new exciting possibilities. Like the touch ability hopefully coming soon.

Funny, I use 4ext because I feel like it's more polished. I've never been a fan of cwm but when I left my g1 I had no other option until now.

backups
so if you had cwmr backups, can you restore them from 4ext, or do you have to flash back cwmr first?
edit: found the answer in another post. thanks.

You flashed the ROM using CWM, correct? What was the name of the ROM?
yes, it is correct I flashed using Clockworkmod by team rogue. I am not really sure what ROM I flashed. but I attached a image of the boot screen. but the ROM I flashed was for TF101(which I think should be compatible with my SL101). or do I need to flash a Asus stock recovery image to solve this issue? BTW is this a boot loop? thanks for the reply.
Edit: I found out the ROM that I flashed.
md5sum: dd80806298385a7a8057b21b384d389f. This is the stable ROM for TF101

If you're getting a bootloop, then something either something went wrong with the installation or with the ROM. I don't think it's kernel related since you're getting to the ROM's boot animation. I would try to relash to ROM or try a different one that clearly states it's compatible with the Slider, because I still don't know which one you flashed.
then how do I flash another ROM when the slider is still in the boot animation? also what ROM is recommended for the slider? I have searched most forums and most of them are for the transformer.

I think even on that rom you should be able to boot in recovery mode. Perhaps you need to wipe data / cache and reboot again.

even I boot into recovery mode, it is only "clear data" or "android", if I wipe data, wouldn't my data be gone?

A ROM that is guaranteed to work on the Slider is Android Revolution, created by mike1986. If I were you, I would just start over completely and flash that ROM.

This here doesn't sound right. You don't connect your Slider to a computer to flash ROMs. You flash the ROM (zip file) from recovery on your Slider.
Also, Android Revolution doesn't require flashing any compatibility pack. Since it is already based on Asus stock ROM, it already has the necessary files.

Don't worry about the compatibility pack for the Android Revolution ROM.
To flash this ROM, you MUST first flash the SUPER WIPE file that is listed in the Android Revolution thread.

In theory, either should be fine.
ok, after flashing the super wipe lite and I flashed the ROM, it is still stuck on asus screen, do I use a nandroid back up and use the super wipe full version? it has been a week already and my problem still can't be solved. I am really getting very desperate.... what had happened????
Edit: problem solved. I use a factory wipe and flash a Cm9 and it worked!! but just a small question, what is the command to mount and unmount SD card in terminal emulator? my SL101 can't read my SD card

I need help flashing a recovery on my phone. I'm a noob when it comes to rooting phones and such, I have tried many different things such as goomanager and using rom manager. If anyone could possibly explain in details on what to do, or link me to a possible solution
-I'm already perma rooted
-I have s-off
-I have a clockwork on the phone but whenever I click a section, it comes up blank (Rom manager)
-Installed recovery from ROM Manager

First off, this is the wrong section. But don't worry, everyone makes mistakes lol.
And now for the recovery. If you could get into your phone, like start it up and stuff. Install this app --> http://www.4ext.net/get.php?apk
Then install the app and open it. The rest is straight forward. It will install the recovery for you. Hope it helps.
Well if u installed recovery from ROM manager then u already flashed a recovery. U can boot into recovery from ROM manager app.
The link that notorious is providing is to flash a different recovery in the same way.

Yes of course but it might get a little difficult for someone that has never done it.

That's the old froyo stock desire NAND ROM from DFT, the first NAND ROM for the HD2. You'll need to flash MAGLDR 1.13 (chances are you're on an old version since you have that ROM) followed by CWM (with the correct partition size) and a new ROM. Check the guide in my sig as for how to do this.
As for why it says the device is a desire, the build.prop in that ROM identifies the phone as a desire so that it's compatible with the Play Store.
so i insatalled device manager / htc sync manager and it does not detect my phone. Running windows 7
is there any way i can just go back to stock everything and i can jsut start over?

You don't need HTC Sync manager. If you want to start over from stock, just flash the stock RUU from the bootloader but I don't really see why you would. Personally, I'd just enter the bootloader, flash MAGLDR 1.13, flash CWM in USB Flasher mode in MAGLDR and then flash a new ROM in CWM.
