Request: new market for gingerbread ROM as an update.zip

Any devs that actually read this forum, the title says it all. I've been using mdj's cyanogen mod 7 v 2.6 and I love it, but would like the new market. I've tried to install manually several times. There's an older thread in this forum that provides some instructions, but it didn't work.
Ideally, I would like to flash as an update.zip in CWM, but any thing that works is fine.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Mods: if I don't get a reply or a working fix within a couple days, I would like to re post in the developmental section. Let me know if this is okay.

Unfortunately, it didn't work correctly for me. Perhaps you and other users will have better luck? Please let me know.

You can only change that if you will edit initrd.gz in the boot partition.

I checked the link witch is posted above.
But i`m not getting out, stuck with a few things.
first: i`ve got installed the 2.08HSPL.
second: can`t change the radio to 2.15.50.14, stuck at 96%.
third: can`t get into the bootscreen of MAGLDR after the included RUU, it goes straightly to the white screen with htc logo and getting stuck.
This was driving me nuts!
How to fix this all?
Thnx!

Hi,
I 'm not sure where you are at.
Did you manage to install radio?
If not,try again.
Radio must be there before you can continue.
I was trying to install but is gives an error at 96%!
How do I fix that?

Hi,
Sorry to be the one to tell you but you have bricked your HD2. When you are flashing a radio you cannot interrupt it until it is done flashing the radio or it will brick your device. The radio is very important, it is what has the data the IPL of the bootloader needs to boot the hardware of the device. No radio equals no working device, or what is known as a bricked device.
Crap!
But I still can get in the bootscreen!
Can you post a link from a radio updater, maybe I can try it again?!
Or can I get winmo back?

Hi,
Try:
Go to HTC site>support>download>ROM upgrade and choose appropriate ROM upgrade for your phone
Extract with winrar or 7z the RUU_Leo_HTC_****************************_Ship.exe
find the larger *.nbh file and rename it to leoimg.nbh and place this file on an sd card that is 4gb or less
and reboot to bootloader (the one with 4 colors,hold volume down button)
follow the instructions from there
That way you will have your original software with SPL restored and ready to send it for repair
No need for PC drivers etc.

That is the most ridiculous comment I have ever seen on XDA.
Ofcousre its a big deal moron. If we simply excused every person and let anybody post anywhere this site would be a complete waste of time.
Why should we "appreciate" it?
People with common sense use the search function or google a couple of keywords+XDA or even in the minimum read a couple of sticky threads before asking what is obviously a very common request.
I don't think he bricked it. Try flashing HSPL and radio again. I've seriously had my phone fall down and get disconnected while flashing radio before. Worried the hell out of me, but I just tried again and it was fine
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
I`ve got winmo back !
Solution:
Download the normal rom and then i changed RUU_Signed.nbh to leoimg.nbh,
then i run the bootsloader again and installed the normal rom by the RomUtilitieUpdate.exe and now it works fine again.
But still no android .
I`ll check later how to install that correctly!
Thank you all guys!

Best word of advice would be go try getting an answer in the right thread so other user will be able to reach out and help.
Also with this amount of information there's no way anyone will be able to offer help. So Second best word of advice would be start sharing information that helps helping you ( funny sentence )
Start reading in the thread that brought you your build and see if you can find the answer there. Start using the search option on this forum to find answers.
Stay calm and try to have fun
Which build are you trying to flash?
Which model HD2 do you have ( EU/US )?
Which partition layout did you use in CWM?
Which partition layout are you using for your sd card?
etc.............
Thx srry am a noob i got the (us)
i had use toolkit (150m)
cwm recovery v4.o.o.o
dont understand ur last ? I just fat32 my sd
your recovery size is incorrect
How can i get the rite one it was 3.0.2.4 an i change it cause i was having the same problem
There you have it wrong partition layout indeed, I guess you're trying dungh sense 3.5 which need 5/195/5
Download cwm and change settings in flash.cfg using notepad our similar
Or select right layout in toolkit

You can use the tool kit to do this as well just choose the correct partition for mag or clk and install. See the thread for tool kit for info.

Yeah without root u can't access or write to system partition as far as I know. U can install cwm though interestingly enough which I didn't know (I did it yesterday to my mates gt-s6500) then rooted from there. So who knows wait for someone with bit more experience to give u definitive answer but if u can, I never seen it and I used fair few devices.why u not want to root anyway?

To be honest: "Custom Rom (which includes rooting)" and "noob" isn't a good match.
But make a test of your own: Read this and if you think you understand what you are going to do - do it. If not .... I think you know the answer.
Good luck.

I too am a noob to this but have managed to root and install a custom Rom and return my DHD back to stock. Best advice I can give from my experience is to google AAHK (I believe it has been removed from here) and read the effin manual enclosed within the zip file. It's one click and it will wipe and root your device. You can then install a custom Rom stored on Ur SD card through the Menu (HBOOT I believe). I know I don't have many posts on here but that's due to A LOT of time spent reading threads and then giving it a go. If you get stuck, I'm sure any questions you have have been asked here before

Ditto.
Search google for 'attn1 advanced ace hack kit'. Read his entire post, read the effn manual (inside the AAHK), read it again, then quiz yourself. Search youtube for other people using it, to give you an idea of how it should go. Search youtube for how to flash a custom ROM too. You'll figure it out.
If anything does go wrong, don't freak out, and come here for help.
Am a noob... rooted my phone two weeks ago and installed Android Revolution HD 6.3.3. Also tried out CM 7.2.
Rooting with AAHK is pretty easy, though the manual is not as clear as it could be. Download the Kit, read the manual and will be happy to help you with the parts which are not clear. It is still fresh in my mind.

Rooting the Desire HD was probably the easiest root I've had to do. I blindly tried to root my father's Galaxy S II and installed the wrong kind of firmware and it was a mess, DHD has a simple program which you can even root with, one click and reading the EFFN MANUAL is all it takes.

Easy? It is totaly insane! So many things to go wrong, first they don't recommend windows, you have to get Ubuntu, find your way in ubuntu (how do they say prompt in Linux? Ahhh, console? No, TERMINAL!) Then it is pretty easy, just one line downloads root and runs it, but I still prefer the method I used to root my wife's Galaxy Ace. Just copy a zip onto a SD card and boot in recovery and apply update from SD card. No need to connect it to the PC, worry about stupid windows USB drivers etc.
But it works and that is important. The manual is makig things more complicated than they need to be. Only once you do it you realize that if is not so complex as manual wants you to believe

Really? Oh dear, installing a new OS definetly doesn`t make sense for just installing another rom on a stock dhd.
Reading guide, doing whats written there ................. aaaaaaaaand it´s done.
Changing/Messing with the OS on an expensive device is not something you should do unless you understand what your doing. This is a Development site. Now a rom flashing site. Being a noob is no excuse for not following the forum rules. We were all noobs at one time or another.
You search, you read, you read some more, and then as your done reading.........you read a little bit more. Then you go about rooting and flashing the phone. When/If you run into issues, guess what you do. You repeat the above and search and read. Then if your still stuck and there are no threads about your issue and you followed ALL the directions that you could find, then you open a thread and ask for help.
