Just got another HD2 and both Magldr / Clk will not boot :( - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Just got another HD2 and for the love of me I cannot get Magldr or CLK to boot on it. I know this is reviving a very old phone but I always loved how hackable they are and they are cheap on ebay right now (£10 / $13).
I tried many different roms and radios, I am thinking it's because it is only showing 320mb ram even when using 2.15 radio but I always get stuck on HTC logo screen with no build numbers after flashing magldr or clk.
Does anyone remember anything about this? Am I missing something or is my HD2 only 320mb as it is a different model hd2? It's the T8585 model PB81***
Not once been able to get it to boot. Tried TMOUS and WWE roms. HSPL 2.08 shows hardware unlocked.

Hmm, Yes installed HSPL 2.08 but you said to have a certain version of SPL then install HSPL? I not tried different version of SPL then moving to HSPL 2.08 and trying yet. I flashed loads of different RUU though then magldr and all just the same stuck HTC logo. Never had either cLK or Magldr boot once. Very annoying. Might just end up getting a TMobile USA handset. Just want to make a YouTube video showing triple / quad boot and Ubuntu / Firefox os and other mad stuff on this phone.

[Q] how do you activate the htc hd2 ram

I have 448mb ram on my htc hd2 and I heard that it actually has 576mb of ram but it is not activated. I need 576mb of ram in order to install MAGLDR.
so can someone please help and tell me how to activate the 576MB of RAM
thanks in advance
Installed software on phone:
ROM: 3.14.405.2 (04666) WWE
RADIO: 2.15.50.14
HSPL: 3.03.0000
I need 576mb of ram in order to install MAGLDR

Not correct.
Magldr will activate the ram for you, you don't need to activate it in advance, and indeed if you did activate it (tmous based rom plus 2.08.50 radio or higher) then flashing magldr will remove the rom that activated it in the first place.
So long as you have a correct radio (2.08.50.x or higher) then magldr will work and the ram unlocked. Without the correct radio magldr wont start till you have flashed correct radio.
I have 3.14 rom and radio 2.15.50 would that work???
Where can I download tmous based rom plus 2.08.50 radio or higher???

The radio you have will work, just flash MAGLDR and then flash CWM (look in the ROM thread foe CWM portition size) and then flash your ROM. Click the guide linked in my sig for more assistance, look for the two complete how to install Android guides I have linked at the top of my guide.

HSPL???
Sent From My Fingers To Your Face.....
i think it is normal for the device to get stuck on the htc splash screen after installing magldr...
this is because magldr is just a LOADER...your device still needs a ROM (which was removed when you install magldr)...after flashing magldr, you need to boot into magldr (turn on device and keep holding down the power on button until magldr appears). then, you need to go to the section in magldr for flashing a magldr compatible ROM. just read the stickies, you will find a guide in there that describes ALL of these steps in much more detail.

No MAGLDR is the ROM on the HD2 until it has a Android or WP7 ROM to boot. So until you give MAGLDR a ROM to flash your HD2 will boot straight into the MAGLDR menu and that is it. The OP is saying that MAGLDR is not even booting up.
At the OP if you have a 2.15.50.xx radio and HSPL 2.08 on your HD2 you should not be having a problem. But like Canontroutman said if you do not have HSPL 2.08 then this is probably your problem. I was under the impression though that if you did not have HSPL 2.08 that MAGLDR would not flash. Which now that I think about it sounds like what is happening to the OP. I just thought you would get a error message from the RUU.

[Q] MAGLDR does not start, and stucks the device

Hi guys. Thanks everyone for the wonderful work you all do.
Today I wanted to try for the first time to flash some NAND stuff.
I installed cLK, then I thought it would have been better MAGLDR so i tried to install it just after cLK.
After the installation, the phone just does not show the MAGLDR boot screen. It stucks at the HTC green logo (of course i keep the power button pressed). The previous working WM rom does not boot.
The only solution i found, is to flash again a wimo rom through ruu_update, from the bootloader (i have hspl4), then I can begin again but MAGLDR will anyway not install properly.
Do you have any suggestion? Thanks.
Sounds like yet another case of not having both spl 2.08.hspl AND an android compatible radio. (2.15.50 for example)
as comes up daily, magldr WILL NOT START without both those criteria filled. It will simply hang on the bootscreen.
thanks for the info.
I had Spl 3.03, I understood that MAGLDR would require 2.08 or above. Radio, is exactely the 2.15.50. What should i do now?
wrong, magldr requires 2.08.hspl ONLY. no other will work.
from magldr thread, post 1 line 4......
You need HardSPL 2.08 before installation!

[Q] SERIOUSLY bricked my htc hd2

I tried installing MIUI andriod to my htc hd2, so followed the step. Wich is unlocking the phone, installing MAGLDR. but while installing magldr i forgot to activate active sync. so when i boot my phone, it's stuck on the first screen. all white and HTC written in then middle. i can access the tri-color screen(it says, SPL-2.08.HSPL).
i've tried to hard reset the phone, even that dident work.
what can i do to fix this problem?
thanks in advance
It's not bricked, you probably did not flash a radio that is capable of running MAGLDR.
Install a radio from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787 with .50 on the back on your HD2 in the tri-color screen as you tried with magldr, europe radios start with 2 (example Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14**) TMOUSE radios start with 15 (example Leo_RADIO_15.37.50.07U_2.10.50.08_2).
BE CAREFULL WITH THE RADIO, CHOOSE THE CORRECT ONE OR YOU WILL BRICK THE PHONE!!!
after that flash magldr again and it will work.
Ill try it, thanks!

ALL radios start with a 2,,,, that second one you posted is radio 2.10.50,, you ignore all the guff before the 2.(which I think is the protocol)
after that flash magldr again and it will work.

no need to reflash magldr, its already flashed, it will start once the radio is correct.

[Q] No Bootloader Menu after reboot

Hi folks,
I tried to flash my HTC HD2 for the first time. Read /watched different guides. In first 2 steps they were all the same:
- install HSPL
- instal MAGLDR
Done both, got positive responses on both.
BUT: after rebooting after installing MAGLDR I do not manage to get the bootloader screen. There´s just a white screen with green htc logo on it and nothing else happens.
Yes, I held the power button after reboot; about 1 min long. Nothing.
If I hold volume down button after reboot the stripey screen appears like after the HSPL installation. But there is also no menu.
Also tried to proceeed task29 with the HD2 Android NAND Toolkit. Got positive response there too and after this I begann from scratch. With the same results.
Does anyone have a clue what I made wrong or forgot?
Or a hint what to do now?
best regards
M.
What version hspl n magldr?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
and radio,
hspl MUST be 2.08.hspl ONLY
radio MUST be 2.xx.50.xx
Got hspl version 2.08.hspl from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
got MAGLDR version 1.13 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893618
cant remember the full radio version but I checked it before starting and it fits to requirements.
But I´m a few steps forward...
Meanwhile I flashed the newest Original HTC HD Win Mobile 6.5 ROM so phone boots up again
After that I installed HSPL version 2.08.0000 (now I know that was a failure) an tried again to install MAGLDR. But the progress bar doesn´t move - neither on PC nor on phone...
So I first will try to install again HSPL like samsamuel said and try again with MAGLDR
[EDIT]
Radio Version is now 2.15.50.14
SOLVED
Don´t know why but after dooing all step again (after falshing new HTC ROM) all ist ok and android is booting...
I think something was not in expected version on my old ROM on the phone. Never made an update before. So I recommend to do this before starting with all other

the only regular hd2 stock rom that includes a magldr compatible radio is 3.14, so if the ''old rom'' you flashed was any other version, it will have also flashed a non magldr radio, which is why it happened. (I suspect).
Sorted now,
the same problem
Hi,
I have the same problem.
Just white screen with green HTC mark.
But I'm not shure how to flesh win mobile again, because I cannot connect my HTC HD2 via USB (PC doesn't recognise the phone).
tnx
Hey MiMo,
Could you please post links and steps to help myself and anyone else looking on how to fix this?
by links I mean can I have the stock rom you used and the radios and such
Thank you.

CLK epic fail

Cant install CLK
So I got my HTC today
This is what I did:

2. Run HSPL 4 to install 3.03 HSPL
3. Installation successful
4. Went into HD android Nand toolkit to install CLK
5. Ran task 29 ,restarted back into rainbow menu
5. Selected 180mb partition with 44mb Cache
6. Ran repartition followed on screen instruction and progress bar came up on my phone and installed fine (I think?)
7. Device restarted and stuck on HTC screen
Watched the guide on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021837 to install CLK
Went through procedure.... and im still stuck on HTC screen
Cant get into fastboot to intall cwm, power on with back button held down it just stays on HTC screen.
HELPPPPP
Thnx
Not sure about clk, never used it, but magldr will ONLY start with 2.08.hspl, AND a 2.x.50 radio, perhaps clk is the same?

as far as reports are concerned, People have been running clk with 3.03hspl and 2.10 radios and what not, it just needs to be a .50 to enable 576mb ram.
How is it clk epic fail if it's just you not being able to get it to work ? have you followed everything properly ?
