BadBlocks - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hey Users,
I think I have a problem with badblocks on my Leo, is anywhere here, with a solution for this prob?

You cannot fix bad blocks once they are there..
All you can do is to use bigger partition size on NAND roms or use NativeSD roms.

I don't think there is a fix, all you can do is to enlarge the partition that has bb.

Hi,
I searched all the thread about the same but no solution exactly to resolve it. Flashing a stock WM6.5 ROM may help some cases to clear bad nand blocks. But most of the cases only one solution to increase the memory +10 mb more for the ROM required while flashing the recovery.

Du you have also that problem? My last wm6.5 was at 2010 on my device, than I flash only android customs and since august of the last year is it the problem, when I flash the rom with the layout from the cook, than hang over the leo in bootloop.

Yes that because of bad nand blocks. I also have the same problem so I always make +10 mb from the ROM thread mentioned I choose to install. When I install suppose a 170 mb nand partition ROM it occupies 175 mb system space always as I presume I have bad blocks.

Does you device have the Samsung or Hynix chip set?

AW: BadBlocks
Good question, can I find this on Device, when it is on?

I'm so sorry for my question, but I'm in the phase to learn to understand the codes from roms.

The HD2 aka Leo is manufactured with 2 different NAND Flash ROM chipsets.
You can find the type by entering the tri-color boot mode.
If you see PB81120 SS-B3 on the first line that means your NAND Flash ROM is from Samsung (KBY00U00VM)
​
If you see PB1120 HX-B3 on the first line your NAND Flash ROM is from Hynix (H8BFS0WU0MCR)
​
After about one year of usage the Samsung chipset usually has a dozen or so bad clusters.
Hynix normally has none of them or just a couple.

AW: BadBlocks
It is an hynix memory

Since you have a Hynix and you cannot seem to find any bad blocks it is possible you don't have any (many) to worry about. What made you think you had bad blocks you had to deal with?

To answer your question he had a bootloop. @OP Just flash a slightly larger /system partition, you should be fine. Try flashing a different ROM with the recommended partition size, that could help determine if it's somehow a ROM specific issue.

AW: BadBlocks
At all roms, I must make the layout bigger then the cook write, that I make not - - - > bootloop

Do not run via SD.
Install NAND.
If you want WM, then install it back...
The risk is that you'll brick your phone...
Read the post for the Android version you would install. Everything is explained in the posts.
If you have any questions use the "Search" button here in the forum, or Google it..
If you have any questions you must search the forum at least 8 times, and google your question at least 6 times.
These are the unwritten rules....
Good luck

What are bad blocks and how to clear them??
Sent from my HTC HD2 using xda premium
Bad blocks usually refers to very small parts of your internal storage that are broken and can't retain data properly anymore. You can't fix them and can only let the system store the data somewhere else by reflashing.

Well, if you don't specifically check for bad blocks with tools, you won't know that you have them until you flash a rom. One of the symptoms of having a lot of bad blocks is that many fully working roms don't work (doesn't boot, or lots of errors) on first try, despite following instructions exactly.
The only practical solution is to flash roms a few times to see if the problem is because you did something wrong, or the rom really doesn't work.

^What he said, and sometimes the ROM simply won't boot on the normal partition size as it can't write to these blocks, so you'd have to increase the size of the partition in order to boot a ROM.
Ok so now i understand it

I think he should tell us the last thing he did before the error's occurrence. @5warafat1 What was the last thing you had done before this error appeared?

lol, yeah I suppose it did.
I think I inferred that this was at the inception of the flash, and not something that just started happening.
He did factory reset and it is still doing it, which tells me it must just be the ROM.
Re: Status bar disappeared
Didn't do anything. I think i just tried to open an app and it suddenly closed and I got this error message, then status bar went.

You could try to just dirty flash your existing ROM, or is this an SD ROM?

Flash the same rom again from recovery without wiping anything.
Edit: I was too late.
I wouldn't want to flash a rom because in the past I nearly ended up bricking my phone. I got Android on this phone through someone else. Isn't there another way around this, something more simple

Nope.
Since the problem originated without apparent reason, we don't know what caused it; we can't really tell you how to fix it without a re-flash.
And by the way, you can never brick your phone through CWM. So just re-flash the ROM. Besides, that "someone" had already done the hard part. He installed everything for you, now you just need to put the zip on your sdcard, boot into recovery and "install zip from sdcard".
So can i install any rom or just the same one and is there any thread on this.

You can flash any ROM and you will not brick your phone. You literally cannot brick an HD2 with anything android related, ONLY with radio stuff and WM6.5, so just read up on how to flash one and flash another ROM.

if something has been installed into the system partition, then it will still be there after a hard reset. Example, if you install a data2ext script, then do a hard reset, it will still be there when the phone restarts.

Yeah, that's why I told him to dirty flash the same ROM, but he has no clue which ROM he flashed, so at this point I think he should just find a ROM he thinks he'll like and clean flash it.
As long as he's messing with Android he can't do any actual harm.

What I meant is, you can install your previous ROM without having to do anything to your device aside of putting the previous ROM on the sd and flashing.
However, that DOES NOT mean you can install any other ROM without modifying the partitions.
And yes, there's a thread for this, it's called search.
P.S: Pay attention to the italicized keywords.
Do this as the easiest thing,
go to settings > about phone, and scroll all the way till you see the kernel version and build version.
Take a screenshot of that and upload it if you can.
This will tell us what ROM you have and you can dirty flash it.
