Shannon, Ms.
Thanks to all but the problem still happen... :(

i guess it's time to bring in for repairs & I hope it's not the mother board, otherwise you can just sell it for parts :eek:
Sorry non of those ROMs helped as I know of no other way that your type of problem has been solved, at least by software means. I new mainboard would fix your HD2, but JTAG also would fix your device. And ny the way JTAG will probably be cheaper.

You do not have a country flag under your avatar so I do not know where you are located. But I do know a guy here in the states that can JTAG the device and is very reasonably priced. So if you think you may be interested PM my. Sorry again about your HD2.

THANK YOU. This is easily the best howto for the hd2. Clear, concise and really helpful.

I read all kinds of stuff for days and followed this thread and I now have a fully working WP7 and Nexus ICS HD2 with market working on both. Only thing that was missing was the live microsoft help but that was the easiest part. Just wish I had discovered this thread to begin with.

Again a massive thank you :D

You legend

Have you ever try HSPL? try to install another HSPL version like 2.10.HSPL and after that again turn back to 2.08.HSPL. I guess that it is corrupted your HSPL. just try man.

Your screen must look like this ;


in Addition; HSPL3 tells you,
Only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from SD card.
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from an original ROM and copy it to your SD card.
- Rename to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset your device while pressing the volume down button.

thank you but a few questions

Nice tutorial. This is easy and faster

Correct me if I'm wrong, as shown in your tutorial enabling uselast24Nand then installing WP7 won't wipe out CWM in NAND right? :confused:

it will wipe out CWM!

CWM & WP7 cannot be in the same NAND - for now. Some are saying that the "new" magldr can put two OS in one NAND, good news for Tmous user.

When you partition magldr it will create CWM option #8 but as soon as you flash WP7 it will erase that. There is no reason to have CWM when you have WP7 in NAND coz CWM is for Andy in NAND, it has no use (to my knowledge) if Andy is an SD ROM.

Option #8 AD Recovery is always a option in the main menu of MAGLDR, but it is only option that can be used when you have a Android custom recovery installed in NAND like CWM and TWRP. Which as mengfei said these recoveries are just for Android also they can not be in NAND with WP7.

thanks for the added info T-Macgnolia & nice of you to always chip in here, BTW I have a question about this:

Code:
misc ya 1M
boot yboot|ro 5M
system ya 150M
cache ya 2M
userdata ya|asize|hr allsize
& I've searched a lot & got info on how to get/ change the values using DFT's recovery, in my knowledge we just need to change the boot/ system/ cache size But when using HD2 NAND Toolkit via Magldr repartition we can only set the Partition size & Cache, what about the Boot size?

I already flashed some NAND Rom just setting the partition size & cache size in magldr repartition & they seem to work out fine But i want to get all the details that I can before making another tutorial using CWM recovery & clk. tnx.

Sorry for the lag in response to your question mengfei I have been sort of busy working on porting JB to the Sensation, no luck so far though...:(

As for your question you are correct that is how you manually change the partition size when using MAGLDR if you do not use the HD2 NAND Toolkit to do it. To be honest you can change the boot partition size if you want to, but it really is no need in it becuase you really will not find any boot.img that requires more space, they are very small, Also so you know the boot.img is where the linux kernel is are what is known as the zImage. It also has what is known as the Ramdisk, this contains all the info that tells the device how to boot the OS. when these two are built together using a android kitchen they make the boot.img which is what boots the linux kernel and then the OS.

Now with clk it is different than MAGLDR, you do not really have to re partition when using it as clk does all of this for you just like the boot loader of a regular Android device does when you flash custom ROMs to it.
