Hi,
Today I've been busy trying to flash NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 from Tytung.
After screwing around a bit I finaly got it to work. All apps and feature's seem to be working.
However the overall system speed is much much slower then I think it should be.
These are the steps I did:
1. Performed a task29.
2. Reinstalled MLGDR 1.3
3. Reinstalled the latest CWM 5.0.2.6 with a 300mb partition.
4. Flashed the tytung_jellybean_r1 kernel.
5. Flashed the NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 rom.
6. I used the NAND with DataOnEXT option.
7. Reboot succesfull and rom started up (Fairly slow).
I have a HTC HD2 (LEO512).
With a 16g level 4 sd card.
I couldn't realy find a step by step guide anywhere so if someone could be so kind to make a list like this it would surely help out alot of people.
Thank you for reading and I hope for a responce soon,
ciao im italian
hi
impotant that you have an ext4 primary partition in sdcard.do you have this one? if not, you have possibility make a backup of your sdcard in pc because for to create partition ,the sistem delete all data of your sd card. after,in recovery,in advanced,partition, you chooise swap 0 and next chooise is 1/2 giga byte(i chooise 4gb 4tobe sure).after you follow the istruction below.
you must to have 300mb of partition with hd2toolkit or other but into aroma istaller you must to chooise a full istallation(important)
and you dont flash any kernel because it is into rom
ps: ...good luck
Your installation method is fine. When you say that the overall speed is slower than it should be, are there any specific areas you can point out? In general in ICS and above ROMS the system uses more RAM which can slow things down due to a lack of RAM. I personally feel this is a small sacrifice to pay for the improvements in gaming and web browsing, as well as the overhauled UI. You may also be overestimating the HD2. You have to remember that it's getting very old now and the hardware just isn't considered even remotely powerful anymore.

I've had indeed forgotten to partition my sd the right way.
Here are the steps I did for people that want to know.
1. Performed a task29.
2. Reinstalled MLGDR 1.3
3. Reinstalled the latest CWM 5.0.2.6 with a 300mb partition.
4. Partitioned a FAT32 primary partition with 32KB cluster size, then an EXT4 primary partition with default cluster size.
5. Flashed the tytung_jellybean_r1 kernel.
6. Flashed the NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 rom.
7. I used the NAND with DataOnEXT option.
8. Reboot.
The rom works fine and the overal speed is okay considering the HD2 hardware.
Thank you for the reactions and thank Tytung for this amazing rom !
very nice
have fun with this rom!!!!!!
The rom is a bit slow anyway, HD2 is not new phone... but nice and recent rom, so it is a choice beetween old and fast or new and slow.
AFAIK, it's a kernel issue. JB kernels do not support HWA yet.
They are working on it.
I have tried to install this rom and also paranoid 2.54 following all these steps but I have a problem. When I try to connect to the internet using wifi a storm of popups with unfortunately all the time comes up until I reboot my hd2 and close my wifi connection. Is there any solution?

Is there a video of this process? I'm lost and afraid to do anything on my phone. I've been out of HD2 stuff for quite some time.
3G not working well.
Hi guys, I'm currently using [3.Nov.2012][ROM] NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 V1.2 [NativeSD] rom. My problem is, I am using my 3G 24 hrs..but after few hours of using it.. I realize that the data is switched off and I couldn't turn it on again, not just that I tried to turn it on and off manually from the setting. The icon of the data appeared but I couldn't connect to the internet anymore, my only solution is to reboot my phone.. is there any available solution for this? Thanks and appreciate it..

Follow the guide in my sig, it's very detailed and you shouldn't really need a video. Don't bother Task29ing either, that's a bad habit and is really completely unnecessary.

Download the HD2 Tool Kit - you can perform a Task 29, install MAGLDR and Clockwork Recovery all from this software to include custom repartitioning based on rom requirements. I installed NexusHD2 4.1.2 to NAND on my device...all the NexusHD2 ROMs have been excellent as well as NRGZ28's EnergyROM for Android which to date is my favorite but I can't resist the latest ROMs and compare it to my stepson's Galaxy S3 device and I updating it manually to 4.1.1 stock. After you do this a few times; the routine becomes pretty automatic.

It depends on the task, higher class cards are only significantly better when transferring files:
Cotulla said:
Operating System is often using small block transfers - 512 and 4K. 4K is ARM page size.
It's why important to do fast transfers with that size. As well sometimes overall operations before and after tranfer can take more time than data transfer itself.
Usually high class cards provide better linear speed, but it's only used when user write big files, like movies or pictures.

(note that that's from Cotulla)
There's not much point wasting money on a high class card when a class 2 or 4 will normally do just fine.
the best and fastest rom ever
hi all,
i'm so excited with this rom that i put back my iphone 4 back in the drawer...
every thing work fast and smooth
the install process is as said in other posts and could be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1930240
dont forget to use ext4 partition and a fast sd card.
i had installed the native sd option (the third one in the aroma installer) and it works perfect!
good luck flashing the rom, and great thanks to the developpers!!!
Great room, I use SDHC class 4 and NativeSD install and it works quickly and smoothly.
Great thanks to the developpers

hello, i hope my thread didnt post somewhere else.
so, i am using hs2 and i installed android 2.2 yesterday and i installed 8 apps on it. everything is working perfect until i installed google eath. i run it and it says that i dont have enough space and it close.. i also remove many apps and i only have 50mb internal memory only. how do i clean android because i wanna install more apps soon!
also how many mb internal memory hd2 has?
is android installed on internal memory of my hd2 thats why its running low now??
thanks i hope to get what am looking for
USA T-Mobile HD2 - 1024MB ROM
Everywhere else - 512MB ROM
Which NAND build are you using? Perhaps it supports A2SD, A2SD+, data2ext, data2sd, if it does one of those, partitioning your MicroSD card and formatting the partition in ext2/ext3/ext4 will give you more space to install applications.

wait wait wait i bought hd2 at 14/1 and i put android at 13/1 so am sooo noob on these what A2SD, A2SD+, data2ext, data2sd are?
how do i partition my sd? how do i format to ext...
i got 512rom btw uk one
thanks
This is the downside of using NAND rom, the internal memory is very low. My phone is showing about 120 MB available and still I permanent have the icon telling me low disk space.
So there is a solution and that is to partition the sd card? Are there any instructions for this available so it becames part of the OS?. I have searched but could not seem to find the proper thread.
BTW I am using the "desire stock rom":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893620
Have a look at this one. Especially the instructions.
Or search the NAND Forum Titles for App2SD, Data2EXT, ext4, data.img or something like that.

I am not going to explain what it is, but instead, I am gonna tell you what to look at. When choosing a ROM.
Example1:
[15 JAN] -=MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.4 [A2SD+][GRH78][RMNET][Kernel: MDJ S10.4 OC]
See the wonderful [A2SD+] that means it uses A2SD+
Example2:
[16 JAN][DAF][ZIP] RAFDROID HD 2.2 [DATA2EXT][Kern:MDJ 10.3][RMNET][UPDATED!]
This uses data2ext
Example3:
[30 DEC][DFT]LEO "Stock Desire" NAND Android ROM
This doesn't use anything, so you are screwed... you run out of space, that's it, SCREWED.
I highly recommend that you read this, and understand what it says.
[10 JAN][RECOVERY] ClockworkMod Recovery for HD2 - v1.2
Because Clockwork makes things really easy for noobs, if you want to call yourself that. It is also used in every Android Devices that I know of, including the Real HTC DesireHD, Samsung Galaxy S, Samsung Nexus S, HTC Desire, and many more. HD2 users prefer people to do everything for them and package everything neatly, then complain about having to wipe everything away each update.
** [GUIDE] How to format SD-Card to EXT 3 **
bakskj, so yah, you have 120MB left. So unless you know how to put A2SD, A2SD+ or data2sd or data2ext into the ROM you are using now, pretty much, use that 120MB sparingly, that's all you will have.

amazing post . bit i use LEO "Stock Desire" NAND Android ROM so am SCREWED . do i have to install NEW ROM ? and start downloading apss from the bigging? if yes what rom is the best ?xda-developers - Reply to Topic or RAFDROID HD 2.2 ?
whats the difference between these 3 roms? more available internal space?
thankss
Urm, it's hard to say what is the best. I guess look at the screen shot and choose the one that looks the most pleasing?
But you know what, now that you are starting again,
[10 JAN][RECOVERY] ClockworkMod Recovery for HD2 - v1.2
READ THAT... USE THAT...
Then choose a ROM that says CLOCKWORK
-=DOWNLOAD v. 2.4 A2SD+ NAND Clockwork Mod=-
Like that. This way, if you have a small little fix, you don't have to reflash the whole rom, some nice guy/girl might already post up the fix in a nice zip file that you can use clockwork to install.

flashed on nand the original desire android on my hd2. its 2.2ver and i cant save app on sd card. the other 2 ver are 2.3 android right? the last one?
PLEASE NOTE:
There are down sides to using app2sd and data on sd.... Namely you cannot mount the SD Card via usb.
The single best option for having a stable, low maintenance build is projections Stock desire, which has some squashing to reduce the space. HD builds are all flawed for 512mb users because of the size. You either have no space, or you cannot mount your sd card.
Based on that I would always go for a stock desire/evo based build, which give full functionality, but with ~180mb free space. Everybody is so quick to ask for data on sd.... but the corruption factor that is still there, combined with the inability to mount the drive, makes it a no go for many people who are starting out, and will be back on here in a few days asking why they are getting force closes, or why they cannot access SD card via usb.
Good comments

First off thanks for the informative replies. I think I'm gonna go for a partitioned one because more space is essential for me.
What i do want to know is. Is there a fix for those eventual crashes and what not? And if they are really to annoying. Because nothing beats stability.
Hey guys I am in!!. After a long search I managed to get an hd2 ... and I am getting used to it. The first thing I do is I put magldr 1.13, cement 3.xxx, then put latest miui rom ( man I have never seen such an eyecady android ever).
Since I am a newbee to hd2, pls help me with some doubts
1) can I instal wp7 and any android to nand at the same time? Or I have to keep Andy in SD inorder 2 dual boot?
2) can I use supercharger script. Also pls help me to add tweeks to hd2( like scripts, mods, etc) .pls post some links 2 those.
3) where are the latest radios? I managed 2 find only one.
4) does chrot work on hd2, I have read about it in LG optimus2x forum. And I am interested in installing backtrack in hd2.
5) magldr always boot into the os directly, and hence I can't go to cwm from any app, nor can't flash zips using rom manager. For that I always have 2 go2 adrecovery from magldr menu, which takes me into cwm. And I am not sure if cwm is in nand or SD. Pls clear it to me.
6) what is about partitioning? Various roms require various sizes, and it confuses me. I can't install nexus HD rom( android 4. Ported 2 hd2). It installs and don't boot at all. Where I can instal miui which I am using now.
7) which one is better magldr or clk? What are the differences?
Pls help me...
Thankz in advance .

let me get a crack at this lol.
1. i believe only one os can be on nand only, ive seen people boot nand wp7 and android sd
2. i use the supercharger script which is great and use option 9, its in the android hacking forum.
3. the only radio you should probably be concerned and using (since there tested for compatibality lol ) is the 2.x.50.x radio ( preferably 2.15.50 for android)
4.never heard of chrot lol. sorry
5. rom manager now supports the hd2 and recovery is in nand.
6. some roms require different system partions to run correctly so there is ample wiggle room for the os to run smooth and butter.
7. there both great bootloaders, i wont state whats better, but i use magdlr since its the first one i used, and i really liked it and have gotten accustomed to it.
hope i answered your questions man and good luck!
i'm gonna try to answer too!

with stock EVERYTHING, only WM6.5 can be in the NAND. MAGLDR supports only ONE OS in NAND at a time (either Android or WP7). so the other OS can be on sd card only. and the only OSes one can boot from sd card are Android and Ubuntu.
the above paragraph should help you determine all the possible combinations.

honestly, most of the custom ROMs here are already tweaked enough to my liking. for some tweaks, you can use apps like "spare parts+" and "rom toolkit" etc. the rest is all customizations:
1. skins - if using a cyanogenmod Android, then theme switcher is built in. if using an HTC Sense Android, then theme switcher is already built in. most "simpler" ROMs may require a lot of work on your part to tweak the look n feel.
2. wallpapers - easy! changing wallpapers is built into all Android ROMs
3. ringtones & alerts - easy! changing these is built into all Android ROMs
4. apps - go to the market place (on Android or WP7) and download whatever you want!
and so on...

see my signature where i've written my radio version. click it to go to the master list of HD2 radio ROMs. i guess sticking to the 2.15 version is recommended by most people.

are you talking about the "chroot" command in linux? i just tried to run it in my Android's terminal emulator and it works. if you are talking about a way to grant root access to applications that request it on Android, then yes again. most custom Android ROMs here are already "rooted".
5) magldr always boot into the os directly, and hence I can't go to cwm from any app, nor can't flash zips using rom manager. For that I always have 2 go2 adrecovery from magldr menu, which takes me into cwm. And I am not sure if cwm is in nand or SD. Pls clear it to me.

isn't it nice that MAGLDR boots into your default ROM automatically? to access the MAGLDR menu, reboot the device, and hold down the power/endcall button until the MAGLDR menu comes up.
CWM is in the NAND (these days), but CAN be on the sd card if you want. it takes less than 5MB of your NAND. this will be more clear if you pay attention to the contents of "flash.cfg" when you are performing the MAGLDR partitioning using "DAF.exe" on your desktop.
6) what is about partitioning? Various roms require various sizes, and it confuses me. I can't install nexus HD rom( android 4. Ported 2 hd2). It installs and don't boot at all. Where I can instal miui which I am using now.

there are two kinds of partitioning we discuss on xda:
1. NAND partitioning - done with MAGLDR. a few MB for the recovery (CWM), followed by a big chunk of memory for the ROM itself, followed by a few MB for the cache, followed by a big chunk of memory for user data. most of the ROMs these days are "heavy", so they expect a partition size that can store the full ROM after unzipping, so the chunk remaining for the cache partition and the user data partition is sometimes barely enough. as a result, some Android ROMs now require an sd card partitioning (see next point) so that they can store part of the ROM in the NAND and the rest of it on the "sd-ext" partition (usually an ext3 or ext4 partition, among others).
2. SD Card partitioning - done via a desktop tool (like "minitool") or via CWM's menu options. the desktop tool will obviously give you a lot more flexibility when performing the partitioning but some ROMs seem to work best if your card is partitioned via CWM's menus. keep in mind that CWM will remove your existing FAT32 partition (so backup the data on the FAT32 partition!!!), then it will create all the partitions (including the FAT32 one) from scratch. typical partitioning is FAT32+1GB ext3 or FAT32+1GB ext4 or FAT32+1GB ext3+128MB linux swap, and so on...
7) which one is better magldr or clk? What are the differences?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
neither...you can search for a detailed comparison between the two. to summarize:
MAGLDR pros: supports WP7, dual booting (between NAND and sd card), detailed NAND partitioning, tetris!
MAGLDR cons: doesn't support PPP (a way to access your mobile network's data connection). only RMNET is supported (RMNET is another way to access the data connection, but slower than PPP). doesn't allow charging the device if completely powered OFF...need the WP7 or Android OS to boot up before it can charge the battery. finally, has an "ugly" screen that appears between the splashscreens on boot up.
CLK pros: supports PPP, allows charging the device when OFF, and doesn't interrupt the splashscreens on boot up.
CLK cons: works only to boot an Android ROM, cannot use CLK to boot WP7 or to dual boot. CLK is not 100% supported on some ROMs. most ROMs these days are "dual" but the experience may be less/more stable on the CLK version of the same ROM.
i believe neither MAGLDR nor CLK can pick the WIFI and Bluetooth MAC addresses from the NV-RAM of the device. the only mechanism i know to achieve this is to boot an sd card Android from within WM6.5...or to use an sd card Android whose kernel supports custom specification of MAC addresses from a config file on the sd card.
most Android kernels these days "generate" a unique WIFI MAC address and Bluetooth MAC address so that no two HD2s running these ROMs will have the same MAC address.
i'm not sure how the WP7 ROMs solve this problem...maybe Android is the only OS for the HD2 that has to "generate" MAC addresses.
Pls help me...

fantastic! haha. well done. indepth as well sir
Yap, i got the points. But dudes i am a previous owner of wildfire. So i know some of the things already. Such as sd partitioning. Tweeking using scripts etc. But i am new to nand partitioning. Is it like the one we do for wildfire ( allocating extra unused memory from rom partition to user partition so that user need not to move that much apps to sd. And ofcourse it will give u upto 150mb extra memory for user data).
I am not asking about root. Itz chroot. Its the linux command from terminal to mound other linux os like backtrack etc. If it qorks, where can i find such an os?
Also about tweeks. It not the app or wallpaper stuff. Itz advanced user tweeks like installing bravia engine, beatz audio,kernal, rom, ram tweekz etc..
Also i want to know if i can get a custom cwm recovery which is highwr than 3.xxx, man wildfire is now reaching cwm 5+. Then why r we still in 3. Also my cwm dont wipes my battery log. What my be the prblm? I have cwm 3.xx( the latest offered by rommanager.
send from my hd2 @ miui 1.12.2
Hey guys, I;m appealing for a little help here.
I have an HTC HD2 which has been great for about a year but all of a sudden it has problems.
I;ve been using this rom pretty much since it came out....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060
I;ve never had any problems with it untill now. I started to get the "insufficient storeage space available" message on it so I assumed a restore/reflash would solve the problem.
I used HD2 toolkit to resize my MAGLDR partition to 450MB & reflashed - the phone wouldnt boot. Stuck on the HTC logo.
Repartitioned to 400 - still no boot!
Repartitioned to 350 - still no boot!
Repartitioned to 300MB - phone now boots however now, I;ve installed no apps & when I try to install spotify, its telling me insufficient storeage available, again! With nothing on the phone except the ROM!
I'm a bit of a n00b with all this stuff, but had my HD2 running fine for ages & its frustrating me that now it wont work properly!
Anyone care to help? THanks, Cardz.
Edit: im using MAGLDR 1.13 & the latest Clockwork mod to flash the ROM. I'm wiping cache & data partitions every time...... :/
Install it with as lower as possible space for system partition. In your case it shoud be 135MB of system partition and 2MB cache but I recommend to put some more of space for system partition as I had some problems with low system partition so you can put 150MB for system partition.
The simple explanation of why you dont have enough of space for apps is that you gave too much of space for system partition and simply this ROM does not require that much of space for system partition. And other space left in your phone memory will be used for apps etc.
EDIT: And also try to install MAGLDR and CWM manually if you can and when you install CWM edit flash.cfg in WordPad or other text editing tool before you flash CWM and edit system partition size to 150MB and Cache size to 2MB

Thanks a lot for the reply, i understand now about the 150MB/2MB cache, but what is the point of this other bit? Could you explain more the purpose of this?>

Well to simply explain you why i wrote you to use manual installation of CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY was that I wanted to explain you how is it working with partitioning your nand memory using cwr or magldr. I just added some helpfull info for you from my experience with HD2 and android flashing. So in the future you will know what to do and you will be able to uderstand more from technical point of view about flashing etc. I just wanted.to share some of my experience with you
But it is up to you if you want to use hd2 toolkit or manual configuration.

You can also use 4ext recovery instead of clockwork...

Afaik it's better to post in a similar topic than create a new one, so here I go.
I have recently switched to an ICS NAND rom and since then I keep having constant storage problems. I understand that in order to solve that I have to partition my SD card but it seems, since I don't really understand the whole android storage management process too deeply, I am not doing things properly cause I keep getting "Low on space" notifications. I attach some screenshots below in order to give you more info about my sd card partitions and rom specs. Please let me know what I did wrong and how I can solve it. I understand I will probably need to repartition and reflash the devide again?
Edit: The screenshots I have attached don't have 2nd part mounted, going to upload proper screens in a minute. Done.
Edit 2: Will this fix my problems?

You are mixing different things. In the first post of this thread the issue was the partitioning of the internal Flash-ROM in the Phone.
You wrote about the SD card partitioning and these things are totally different.
I think, you have a problem with your internal memory and you have to try the same things like cardyology has done after the hint from jan.selep.
Partitioning for Ubuntu's users
I don't find the way to modify partitioning of the internal Flash-ROM when you are an Ubuntu user on PC (no Windows boot anywhere..)

If you use cLK instead of magldr you can repartition from the cLK bootloader, , no PC necessary.
Before you say 'I cant install cLK without a PC', there is a version of cLK you can flash from sd card.
It will mean you have to resinstall your rom, though.
I believe more simple to find a Windows PC...
dont see why it should take any more than 25 minutes to accomplish, properly prepared.

Hummmm because the Murphy's law? :crying:
I found a Windows PC, I downloaded the HD2 Toolkit... but not the good one, because the last version don't works with 32 bits PC. So, I found the good one, I saved all my stuff, I tried to repartition and... I miss a dll and other bull****... 2 hours later, I thought is too long to be good and I sought a lighter ROM (I understood Hyperdroid CM7 has a 150 Mo system partition : it's very short!), but, I found nothing with ICS or JB, only GB... pfff.
So, I took a week to flash ROM, I read miles of thread, hours to understand how my device working and each time I found a solution, each time I have at less a new issue to solve. It pissed me of.

Dear all!
I would like to ask for assistance in connection with the HD2 device.
First of all thank you very ROM I could try, hats off to everyone who built them.
The problem many would be now if an app I use (whatever it is), and someone calls me, then the device freeze, slow Lessa, who writes that "the android.phone application is stopped.'ll Ask for your PIN code and reboots . pulled the CPU clock frequency, set it as possible. But all in vain. now It used to be used for stable ROMs also exists. Please help me to correct the error!
Hints at the following e-mail address: [email protected]
Thanks in advance!
Sincerely MrScottt21
Need more information like
.what bootloader used
.which type of memory used rom(nand or data-EXT or Native SD)
Are you getting this on first use or?
Sent from my MediaPad 7 Lite using xda premium
Hello!
I used CLK and MAGLDR Bootloader (Dark Force's Team).
The ROM is always watching for the correct partition size that the ROM "manufacturers" offered to the ROM. NAND and SD were Native-ROM. So far, everything has worked perfectly fine varieties. The radio version RadioLeo2.15.50.14 because the European unit. This is one of the most stable radio which is made to the HD2. 3.7 GB of ROM I downloaded from here on XDA and android.hd2roms.com website. Not much everything worked except for the second Third run-up. All before installing formatted the internal memory (NAND), the HD2 Task29 Tool Kit program.
Always 2x 3x checking the system partition or the microSD Ext2, Ext3, Ext4 partition before starting anything can be installed. I am always careful. Therefore, I do not understand what's wrong.
I hope you can, or you can help me.
Thanks in advance!
Sincerely Mrscottt21.

The partition sizes recommended for most ROMs are conservative minimum sizes. They assume your device has no bad blocks in memory, something that is likely incorrect.
Start increasing the size of the system partition by 10-20 MB each installation try. If you are using a DataOnEXT installation make your system partition 399 MB (nothing beyond it is used with DataOnEXT anyway).

Greetings!
Thanks for the quick response. We try this option to see if you will.
One question: What did you mean, "bad blocks in memory"? This refers to the NAND or the memory card? Thank you for your answer!

Hi,
Let put it simple, i need help to put Android ROM to my HD2 which is still on WM 6.5. I dont use this phone so i dont need to backup anything.
Also i have problem to choose ROM which will go on this device, but i know that i would like to have stable latest version. Why not put it back in use
4.4 have problems with wifi and gps if i have correct info so i need help to select right one and it will be nice to have step by step turtorial because i never didnt modification on mobile phone like this one, iphone is some different story.:angel:
Tnx in advance
Reboot your phone and keep pushing volume down, when you are in 4 colors (bootlader) use Task29 to format your device from PC, Connect HD2 to pc let windows install drivers, then execute task29, when you reach 99% keep pushing volume down to boot again in bootlader (4colors). After Task29 instal MAGLRD, when it is installed reboot your phone and when you see go, go, go appear keep pushing on/off botton to boot in MAGLRD, go to flashable mode and install Recovery CMW or 4EXT, whatever, before that open flash.cfg file with Note and set up the file like the developers asking on they roms threads, (Partition 200mb, Cache 2mb exc) when you installed recovery put the Rom zip file which you like to sd, format your sd from pc before do that, then boot in MAGLRD, when you are there boot in recovery and select flash from zip in installation, done, enjoy the Rom. After installation reboot your phone 3 times. Flash in this way how many time you like and if you have problems do not ask me. :laugh:
I run Tytung ICS v3.0 (very stable and fully working) and I get with my 2300mha battery 5 days of normal use. Latest Roms I don't know if they will reach that.
Hit 10 times thanks botton.

I forgot one of the most important part, before do all from my first post you have to install first HSPL and after that a Radio, I think v2.12.50.02_2 it's good enough.
Hit, Hit, Hit.
Thanks!!!!!
I hope that i have all understand correctly for now. But i need small favor to ask, is it possible that you send me links for all this sw which you have mantioned in your post?

MADGLR is needed for Windows Mobile 7 too because it's ported to HD2 like Android buy you have to format your phone with Task29 if you want switch to Android so WP7 will be deleted with MADGLR, so yes, you have to go through all the steps.

HSPL4, Radio, MAGLRD are flashable from PC, put your HD2 in bootloader (4 Colors) and install first HSPL4, then Radio. Do a formatting via Task29 and then install MAGLRD.
Unzip on Pc, connect via usb, flash.
Install Recovery but before that see from Rom Thread which size of partition have to be, set up flash.cfg file with Note, flash recovery from MAGLRD in flashable mode. Then put the Rom in SD and install from Recovery. Read my first post. Hit, hit, and hit again thanx.
In MAGLDR use ROMUpdateUtility.exe to execute the installation.

Actually 2GB is a bit low of storage, any class 10 should be ok, you don't need more because the bandwidth of the microSD slot is low anyway.
I got 64GB Samsung Pro UHS-1 formatted in FAT32 on my HD2 and working flawlessly but the only way to let it work the SDXC 64GB on HD2 is to format the card with Guiformat.exe in FAT32 with 32768 Unit Size (cluster).
Ext4 partition is needed only if you use a script (data on ext) or a Rom with Data on Ext because that partition will be used by Android to install the applications on SD so for example if you have a 32GB MicroSD you have to partitioning the card with Mini Tool Partition Wizard Home free and make 2 partition on sd, 1 in EXT4 of 4GB and 26GB in normal FAT32, remember 2GB is taken by the system so the 32GB effectively will be 30GB only. All SDHC are already in FAT32 so you will not have to format them, only SDXC are in extFAT so you have to switch to FAT32.
If you don't have different SD just leave that card in FAT32 and install the rom and when you go out of storage you can move the Application to SD. You can also format the all card in EXT4 and let Android use it as internal storage, because this how it will be if you install the Rom with Data on Ext so you will have 2GB of storage instead of 750MB.

For the start it's ok but actually newest Roms are not fully working or they have problems, update to newest it's not the best choice sometime.

The kernel is not evolved very well and you will never play with that Rom on Most Wanted or 9MM, forget N.O.V.A 3. . :laugh:
Just let me know one thing, go to menu where you scroll all applications and rotate to landscape, where the icons goes?
@daracg I saw now that thread of my Rom, it's closed due to lack of support for Tytung so the Mods removed the Download links but actually I got a zip of that Rom so if you want to try it let me know, I will try to upload for you and send you a link via PM because probably I can't post it here. I never upload anything because of my low internet upload so we can figure out some way. Just let me know.

All heaviest Games are not free and most hungry Game it's N.O.V.A 3, it's a kind of Crysis on mobile phone.
Free heavy Games which I tested are Dead Trigger, Dead Trigger 2 and Frontline Commando.
Remember the HD2 have some hardware limits so you can't pretend to much from it but a good kernel help a lot and one of them it's Tytung kernel.
