I think I have a problem with my HD2.
The screen of my hd2 was broken so I tried to replace it with a new one.
But when assambling I probably ripped the volume flex cable.
So I can´t press volume down to enter bootloader.

I had a custom rom installed and use an android sd rom.
But to make it a nandroid or change the radio I have to get into the bootloader.

Is there an other way to get into the bootloader the with the volume button??

Yes do a Google search for Touch Tools or Anestasia End Key these both have options to go straight to the bootloader via your touch screen.

yes, I figured it out already.
But if I´m right, I can only enter the bootloader from windows mob.
If I do mtty or flash magldr, I´ll always need the volume button to enter bootloader.
If I do mtty i´m screwed...
To install magldr you alsoo need the volume buttons to make selections in the magldr menu.

And yes I have a custom rom installed and android from sd.
I managed to change the radio and custom rom with the file you posted.
Thank god I forgot to do mtty, because I couldn´t enter the bootloader if there isn´t a win mobile installed.

I have no real clue if this is actually posible or not, just thinking out loud here. But you might want to check into seeing if it is possible to change the volume down to the volume up button to make it enter bootloader. I know the bootloader is a program that is not part of Windows Mobile so I doubt very seriously you could do it via a regestry tweek. But it has to be something in the code are something for the bootloader to know to run when that combination of buttons are being pressed. Something like if x=1 & z=1 then run .exe. I am no programer by any means but that is just an idea from my basic understanding of code. If anybody else wants to add to this thought please do good or bad cause I would like to know if I am anywhere close to right or if I am just day dreaming lol.
