[02/11/2013][v4.2.0.1] HD2 NAND Toolkit - Toolkit for HD2 Users [Video][NEW]

[ksubedi]

Edit: Hey HD2 Folks! I was just checking in to see how my old thread was doing and im surprised by the number of people that are still using and updating the toolkit. It has been quite a few years since the HD2 has been released, and it is still getting updates that not even new phones are getting. HD2 has gotten a special place in smartphone history because of this. I would really like to thank all the developers that made this possible and all the users that supported the developers. I obviously don't have my HD2 anymore (i actually cracked my first hd2 and got a second one which i lost and got a third one which started having power button problems, then i moved on, i would still use one if i had one), but i will always support hd2 users. And im sorry to everyone who donated and didn't get their names on the donations list. I really appreciate your donation, i just wasnt able to update my thread due to different problems, and im sorry about that. I hope HD2 gets more updates and ability to run more oses (Ubuntu OS etc.) in the future.

Please Don't Forget to Check This Poll.

Thanks a lot to bzdemes for using the source code and continuing my work! This is what a community and open source is for!

Hello XDA Users / HD2 Owners,
This is an All in One Toolkit for HTC HD2 NAND Users. The main purpose of this toolkit is to simplify many complex tools/guides which are difficult or unsafe to use. As we all know that HD2 has got a powerful hardware base, but the pre-packed Windows Mobile operating system just ruins all the fun of having a device with high specs. So, developers on XDA like codesmith and Cotulla have created alternative bootloaders which can load Android kernels so that we can use Google's Android operating system on our devices. This tool will help you install those bootloaders, and also do many other customization/modding works easily from one control panel. Here are the main features of the Toolkit:

Simplifies Installation of cLK and MAGLDR (Android Bootloaders)
Simplifies Installing Roms, Radios, SPL's and other things by letting you install NBH Files with one click
Makes it easier to Re-Partition your Android Phone
Makes it easier to install Reicvery
Automates process of flashing NBH Files

Well, those were just the main highlights of the tool. There are a lots of other numerous features that will let you easily do many complex stuff. After lots of nights without sleep and red eyes, i have finally made this small piece of software able to do most things that a normal HD2 NAND Android would want to do easily.

Current Version: 4.2.0.1
Current Recovery Version: 5.0.2.6
Last Update: 6/15/2011

Installer
Express Mode - Express Mode enables you to automatically do a lots of stuff automatically. Just check the Express Tools button and try to use the features mentioned on the msgbox
NBH File Handler - Easily install nbh files by just opening it like a normal file

About The Software

Hd2 Toolkit is the result of a lots of nights of work with help from recognized developers such as arif-ali, seadersn and others. I have tried my best to make the software as user friendly and powerful as possible. I really appreciate the fact that you guys are using and loving this little software i made. At first, i made a tool that was intended to make it easier to repartition MAGLDR bootloader. Then gradually you guys started using it and started suggesting more and more features which i implemented as soon as i could. Version after version, i started to add new new features you guys suggested and soon i changed the name to ClockworkMod Installer. After few versions of developement, and bug reporting from T-Macgnolia, i finally added support for cLK bootloader. Then after adding a lot more features you guys suggested, i changed the name again, and this time to a name that makes broader sense, HD2 Toolkit. I will keep on updating this tool as frequently as i can. I hope you guys will like this tool. Any suggestions, comments, questions, bug reports or anything related to this tool are welcome. Thanks to mods who made this post a sticky

Linux Users

mardurhack has confirmed that Downgrading Recovery works on linux using WINE.

I did not create an installer for linux users as the main tool required to flash CWM for MAGLDR hasn't been made for linux by DFT. I would suggest using WINE to emulate the app (haven't tried it yet but should work).

As for the cLK version, you can easily install it on linux. Just download a fastboot binary for linux and use the following command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

What to expect on future versions

Rom manager version fix
Custom partition sizes for cLK (working on it, almost complete)
Easy repartitioner for ROM Developers
Anything you suggest

If you respect my work, please:

Do not directly link to the download link, because people will miss a lots of information and instructions provided on this thread. If you want people to download this software, provide a link to this thread.

Do not make mirrors, it just creates confusions and inteferes with updates. If you have a spare server and want to help me, please pm me and we can include it as an official mirror. And i dont get paid for distributing files, so i dont think it is necessary to make mirrors. Right?

Do not redistribute the application with viruses or trojans on them. No-one likes those. LOL

Thanks button would be great

Please don't forget to read the FAQ on third post and instructions on second post.

P.S. I take no responsibility for anything done to your device by these tools. It works on my phone. And dont forget to hit the Thanks button if this helped. Enjoy!

Source Code For v4.1

I recently broke my left hand and wont be able to continue this project for like 2 months or more. So i want to release the source code to public so that you guys can continue it and improve it. The au3 files can be compiled using this tool. And the setup file can be compiled using Inno setup. I cant type much using my right hand only, so i hope u guys can figure out which file points to what. Not necessary, but if you modify and plan to release a modified version, a link to my website http://wireshock.com and credits to me would be appreciated. If you want the modified version to be included in this sticky post, please pm me. If you need help about source, add me on skype : kaushalsubedi . Thanks for your support and donations guys.

first answer: yes, currently, magldr doesnt support flashing recovery without recreating the partitions. if you are using clk, you wont loose anything.

second answer: just use nandroid from your current recovery and you will be good to roll

 

[Tydi]

What is new for the recovery ? Except the nice installer ?

Thanks anyway

 

[shakeym]

Nice job...

 

[bedders67]

How does one decide what partition size to set?

TIA

 

[Major_Sarcasm]

The installer is a genius idea, thanks very much. Is there a current changelog for CWM itself?

 

[Weeman2k3]

How does one decide what partition size to set?

TIA

depending on witch rom you use.... usualy non sense roms will work with 150mb partition as for the sense roms you need 250-400mb. just read the req of each roms

 

[AgoeZ]

Thx a lot mate! Right now, I'm currently using your cwm method.

Just want to ask you:
Whats different between 3.0.4 and 3.0.8? I'm currently using 3.0.4.

[mwakious]

Nice job!!
Did anyone try to port a backup maded in 3.0.2.5 to 3.0.2.8, i know that in older versions there was a problem.
i have played a little and i saw that changing the partion ,changes the cache to,how do you personalize that?i have created the partition,stoped the process, changed the cache,started the process and the cache came back in default....

Sent from my HTC RAM (D)HD2 v.2.0 using XDA App

 

[Drew99]

Please correct instructions in bat file for CLK:
in your file:

echo Power It Off,
echo Hold Home Button And Power Button Till
echo You Get In The FastBoot Mode

it should be:

Power on your phone, hold left arrow button
till you get the fastboot mode

(hold Home button to enter into recovery)

 

[qaliza]

Cooool...

Thanks man..

 

[Lozone]

Excellent work.
The latest CWM is 3.1.0.1
It is the one I am using.
How easy is it to change the recovery to the latest?

Sent from my HD2 phazer!

 

[tigerz0202]

[Stom]

Yeah I also want to know what'd new in this version. Can we reboot into the recovery now, or any other exciting development?

 

[rasirot1456]

Installer
I have created an custom installer type tool that enables you to choose the partition size of system partition instead of downloading different files for each partition size.

Just choose the size of the partition as you want and press flash button and follow simple instructions.
