To begin, i'm really sorry if it has already discuss because i searched for these problems and i didn't find any threads (maybe i'm blind )
so, my problem are there :
- after a custom rom flash (i tried FRE and WWE, it doesn't matter), i've got a lot of freezes. At the beginning, i thought that was manila but even i stop it, it does again. When it happens, i can't do anything else, i'm obliged to SR
- times it works well (if i can say that , when device is turn to sleep, i can't unlock it. I explain : when i switch on screen, i slide to unlock and then it goes again to sleep and if i try again, it does the same again !
I tried some things a lot of time : HR, SR re-flash, re-HSPL... and each time, it's the same thing
The only rom works it the last official one (i lost the HSPL each time too)
EDIT
some new test results : (for me only at this moment)
- in manila 1921, 8 and 16 GB cards are accepted without any problem
- in manila 1922, 8 GB card is accepted with any problem
- in manila 1922, 16 GB card isn't accepted ! freeze and unlock problems
i repeat that it does even if sense i switch off, so the doc tab issue seems not to be a good way...
END EDIT
EDIT 2
LINK TO STERNAS ROM
above a link to the only rom works. Thanks to Sternas (and waiting if he wants to explain it precisely to permit other cookers to include issue)

Yes, there are a lot of people, having the same problem. Myself as well
But we couldn't find the solution for it.
I tried different cooked roms, I formatted the sd card (fat32), I took out the sd card, I tried with or without sim card, but the device still freezes.
In case of original roms it works without freezing
Original ROMs also freeze

I disagree - I find that in the mornings, the phone the radio has gone off and nobody can phone me (I charge the phone all night). I am on Rom 48.
Hi Will,
You are talking about custom roms FRE and WWE are they realy custom or do you talk about the stock roms?
Maybe it's good you explain how you flash the rom and explain how you use the rom.
Do you use the rom default or do you install applications?
Which applications you are using, a list would be great.
And you can also explain this:
* Are you using HSPL or SSPL?
* Do you flash from storage card or do you use your desktop?
* Did / or did you not remove storage card during flash?
* Did you hardreset after flash?
* Which roms are you talking about, I mean which versions?
The more details you give the more people can verify if they have simulair problems/ software that could cause this issue and the faster you will find what is causing it.

Hi Laurentius26,
i'm sorry if i didn't precise all things you ask because i used to flash my different device for a while (since the first diamond) and i begin to have a little experience on it. So, i think i use the good way
To explain, i use to do this :
- copy the leoimg.nbh on the root of SDCard (previously formatted in FAT32) and i precise it is a sandisk microSD
- two methods then : test from the microSD (restart with the volume down key pressed) or from the PC with the CustomRUU.exe . I precise again that i've already install HSPL from Bepe and Cotulla (thanks again to them)
- after device restart, i do a HR, then i follow the config wizard and i do a SR.
and then, i do nothing, just set hour and date and the problems listed above appear, without any time to install or custom anything
for the rom, i confirm too that's not stock roms i tried but for example, Xannytech Evolution 1.0 RC1 or rom from French cooker Seya
So, i don't think it is a method problem but maybe a little bit different hardware than all of you (why ? i don't really know)
Let's go for your analysis !
thanks
I can give you 3 suggestions how you can find the cause.
Try flashing with Custom ruu but no storage card inserted.
Actualy you could try to use the rom for a day without your storage card and see if the problem persist. If not you can put the storage card back in and continue testing.
Yah and second suggestion is trying another custom rom and see if the problem persist.
If the problem still persist after these steps I would flash a stock rom, one time without storage card inserted and one time with.

i'll give you more news after
i've just tried to flash with freyberry_premium_V5.3_23518 and then it works well !!!
does it mean that my phone doesn't support rom further 1.48 ?
have you any idea about that ?
No I would say the two roms you mentioned earlier probably have a bug in rom which causes the freezing and you should contact the chefs.

in fact, it's not a problem of rom version because problems comme back again, even with the freyberry_premium_V5.3_23518, i can't unlock HD2, it return to sleep before i unlock completly...
i try another rom to see
just a information, when i use customRUU.exe, it always says me that i change my image version from mine to "1.48.kwbr"
with all the different rom, i always have this message ! is it OK ?
Edit : forget this, i was wrong. I did the same and so, i obtained same version ...
I'm facing the same problem with cooked rom. But I test the cooked rom by copying a big file into my document folder, and left with about 10M in main memory, files in HD2 are easily corrupted and HD2 freeze.
- flashing stock 1.48, and then cooked rom with hard reset, HD2 can not pass the copying test.
- flashing stock 1.61, and then cooked rom with hard reset, pass the copying test, and my HD2 still functioning after one day of use. I realize that the radio for 1.61 is newer, version 2.06.
I tried to install a FRE custom rom based on 2.02 and then it works until i put the microSD card in again.
After this, freeze and sleep problem come back. So, is there a problem with 16 Gb SDHC Class 2 MicroSD card ?
thanks
it was not far to work well...
i flash without MicroSD, then install SD card hotfix from HTC and it seemed to work for 5 minutes.
i try to recover my contacts with pimbackup from my microSD and then FREEEEEZE : obliged to pull out battery
i'm fed up with this problem !!!
another new and question for all :
it seems to come from micro SD, so, someone have same of mine ?

Yes I am using the same SD but I am observate a little bit different behavior. MY HD2 freeze and nothing can be done. I soft reset my device but the boot up doesn´t finish again. It stops at the white HTC screen and showing me the version numbers on the left bottom. I have to hard reset my device to use it again. I had this two times with dutty´s V0.3a and the implemented Radio 2.06 using HSPL.

As you get your problems with all ROMs I guess it's either your sd-card or your device.
I suggest you first try another (smaller) sd-card. My 8Gb works perfectly.
I am also using a 8GB card (Kingston - Class 4) and had no single freeze or lock-up since the beginning.
As I thought about switching to the 16GB SanDisk card as well I am very interested in the result. If it's either a sd card or device issue.
Best regards
i totally agree with you, i think now it's a SD problem but what i can't understand is :
i use this card since i had my touch HD (the first one) and there is never a problem
i change my phone to HD2 and so put my 16 GB in HD2 and then : no problem too
it's only since i try to flash with custom roms and not with stock roms, so it's not really a sd problem but a problem between SD and last roms, am i wrong ?

Hi, since I upgraded my SPL to 1.54/1.56, i've tried installing both Dutty WM6.1 v2.9 and Mira WM6.5 v8.1 but neither of them seems to like my storage card, i have to do soft reset for it to recognise the card, but after a while the card will disappear again...

I've seen one other user with the same issue. What type / brand of SD card are you using? Trying to narrow down what is causing this... he had the same issue with same rom(s).
its the SanDisk 8GB SDHC one - one that came by default with Orange UK contract.
Btw, I did upgrade to the offcial 1.54/56 ROM before upgrading to the 2 ROMs above.

Maybe it's got to do with the power management policies the Chef applied. Try to use schaps' Advanced Config 3.3 to disable SD Card Power Management and see if it helps.
Also, some caches and DMA could be the culprits but first let's see about power management.
The Power Management is disabled.
Also, 1 thing I particularly noticed is when I open Windows Media player, attempt to update my library on storage card, it can find all my music files, but when it attempt to add the music to the library, it doesnt. and then the sd card disappear from File Explorer, WMP libary option.
Backup your sd card to your PC, and reformat it. Had the same problem, fixed with a format

I have the same SanDisk8GB SDHC one - default card which came with the phone. Same thing happned. It has become very slow to access, and practically useless, the phone cannot detect the card. If put into the computer with the adapter then also it is the same computer cannot read it or sometimes takes too long, cannot format. this happened after the 1.54/56 rom.
Happened to me also with some custom ROM.
I used my warranty to exchange the SD card.
My advice : backup your SD card when you can, from time to time.
Same Thing
Same thing happenned to my card. Same default card that came with the phone. But I have SPL 1.14 which I have had for a while now. I just flashed to a Miri ROM and it started happenning. I will try reformatting to see if it helps.
did you remove the sd-card when you flashed?

I am "others" too.
I tried every hint I could find on the forum including disabeling the SD card power management and setting the PnP values higher.
Nothing works (and I have a Apacer 8GB card)
For me it narrowed down to:
1) Hardware faulty or
2) Hardware cannot "cope" with 8GB .
I've called HTC in the US - which where very friendly brw - and the lady said that most handsets are only guaranteed / tested to work with 4GB cards, Although there are other handsets in other countries who where sold with an 8GB card as a bundle.
Today I called HTC "support" centre in "New Zealand" and the phillipin/indian/nepalese customer service lady told me that my handset had been parallel imported and therefore needs to be send back to the NETHERLANDS for a diagnosis / repair!
I told her that if she would'nt give the number of their authorised repair centre in NZ I might have to think to contact Ministry for consumer law. So I got the number and I will go there now, cheking what the story is..will keep you updated.

I doubt that the new SPL 1.54/1.56 is related to the SD card problem as I also downgraded to original HTC rom with spl1.14 and still have the same problem[/I]

EDIT: gurluver I think you're right! I downgraded my device now back to spl 1.14 and no problems anymore. As I am discussing this with crackwhore it seems that
1) some countries's touch hd might have a different hardware
2) however even though I have downgraded to official HTC ROM spl 1.14 (and the card is working fine then) as soon as I upgrade to offical and / or other spl 1.56 the problem appears again.
Conclusion: I have to go and (probaley argue) with HTC and see if they are willing to either fix it or send me a new device.
Will keep you posted
so to sum up, i guess i'll have to try these when i have sometime, and see what happens after each step, and only go to next step if previous step works.
- restore to Orange UK ROM SPL 1.14
- upgrade to Official WWE SPL 1.54/56
- Try another 1.54/56 ROM.
- Format the card
- Install SD tune up
I'll report back here my result.
update...
i have flashed my device several times, at least 15 times,.always using USB activesync, never thru the stotage card. I have v1.14 and I have never had a problem. After rebooting the phone a couple of times, I got my card to reappear today long enough to backup my stuff. Then I formatted the card, put it back in, loaded it up with the same files, and I havent had another problem, though its only been about 8 hours.

restore to orange UK ROM spl 1.14..and you will see that you will be sweet. After I upgraded to official SPL 1.54/56 it didnt work again..and I tried several versions (NDL; came with the phone , EUR & WWE)
I just think that its not right to be "stuck" with spl 1.14 in order to use or card...
SD Card Problem
I had this problem last night. Basically my card just disappeared from the file explorer. Could not connect it to disk drive mode or anything. Took the card out, re-inserted and the card would appear for a few seconds and then go again. Soft re-setted and it would appear for a bit then disappear.
Done a hard reset and the card still would only appear for a while until I tried to access it then it would disappear.
I eventually narrowed my problem down to something I had installed on the card which was MaxTTM. After deleting this folder from my card, it remained visible. Been working fine ever since. I didn’t have to delete my music or video files which make up around 6-7gb of my card. From now on I think I’ll install my software on the phone as opposed to memory card. My card is a 16gb Sandisk.
When the problem happened to me, first, only some directories had disapeared. Or at leat I couldn't access to them.
Even with a µSd card reader on the PC.
I formated it with the storage tool, on the HD, because the PC would'nt see it.
A week later, I couldn't access to the card anymore. Neither on the HD, nor on the PC.
I concluded that the card was destroyed.
Hopefully it was still under warranty.
I don't blame the cooked ROM I was using. Maybe the SDtuneup with some parameters I entered with Advanced config tool did the mess.
Like power management.
My first SD corruption occured when the card was almost full, and I was downloding a file with Opera. In the meantime I plugged in my PC in mass storage mode. I recognize my error. But instead of simply having a file system corruption, why did it destroyed the card ?
Because after then, the card access was longer. Perhaps the system was trying to recover some bad sectors ? I'm working in phone industry, and we do a lot of tests on these kind of use cases. So I can't beleive HTC hardware isn't that robust.
In my case, it ended with a hardware destruction. Even on other devices (with other OS/ ROM) it also failed reading.
Bad luck with a weak µSD card ?

Card done these step - works fine on 1.14, breaks on Official WWE 1.54/56.

I've sent my device in for diagnosis / repair / swap . I will update you what's happened. Good Idea with writing to HTC though
I had also an old Sandisk 6 GB card and copied to it the content from 8 GB card (which came with HD). That solved my (SD disappering) problem !
Hi guys...
I've run into a bit of an issue when trying to boot the latest and greatest Froyo builds on here...
done everything as required (all works fine on 2.1 builds)
however...
it creates the datastore fine... no problem...
goes to HTC white boot screen,
then
Android animated screen...
and then a brief glimpse of a locked Sense screen, and it then vibrates and subsequently shuts down.. (not reboot just shut down)
any ideas guys it's driving me potty..
I have a clean class 2 16 Gb micro SD card
and as i said the 2.1 builds work fine..
I have now changed the topic to discuss trying to resolve the extended battery issue
I had issues with my 16GB SD Card. I switched to a 2GB one and didn't seem to encounter any problems.

Did you delete all the Android files you had before? It could be that any different file you overwrite or replace could interfere.
And second, why make a new thread for this? This easily couldve been posted here in the HD2 Linux/Android Q&A Thread - ASK YOUR QUESTIONS HERE!! thread
See where i'm getting at?
THis way you get an answer, but the forum also stays clean and crisp without 2-3 reply threads.
apologies...
an update though.I have used a formatted 2 gig card.. nothing else on there and still nothing...
the radio is fine... so I am very confused...
Hi nutmegy
I have the very same problem. Tried to format sd, to install other roms, anything, and I cannot find a solution.
What rom/radio are you using?
Let´s find a pattern....
cheers,
Yeyes
using 2.10.50.26
Ok, I was using 2.10, and changed to 2.12, and nothing changed.
What rom do you have?
I had BSB Beast 5, and today I changed to Miri but still doesn´t work.
sorry, I didn´t see your avatar with the rom.
I tried with a 2 gb sd card and with a 8 gb sd card. No way
mmmmmm what rom to use...
someone mentioned a de fragment worked for them maybe you should try it
yea tried that.. anyway a freshly formatted sd card should do surely????!!!
I have the same issues
2.1 runs ok
2.2 does boot but just shuts down 5-10 seconds after lockscreen, tried different kernels and differend builds, formatted sd a few times, tried different radio's
Euro HD2, no simlock
SPL: 2.08 HSPL3
ROM: Stock 1.66 dutch
Radio: 2.10.50.26
at least I'm not the only one lol.
I have a 16 GB card and everything works very well !!! I use winmo miri roms 17.6 if it can help.
already tried that rom too... I dunno...
i've had same situation here. I couldn't boot any Froyo build (2.1 was fine though) with artemis build and 2.50.xx build, because my phone was switching off just after "welcome" screen. I've been trying to figure out what was the problem for past couple of days, i've been trying everything, and than...
I've switched my battery, from extended HTC HD2 battery (2400 mAh) into regular, stock 1230 mAh and.. surprisingly it worked.
I don't have any problems with any froyo build since then.

You are putting the Froyo builds in a FOLDER on the ROOT of the SD card correct? Froyo is the only one you run from a folder. The other builds go no folder, root of sd. Might also try dual boot cab or a higher class SD card. Im running Class 10 - 8GB, Miri V17.6 Lite, Radio 2.12.50.02_2, not one prob.

Sorry guys but I need some serious help getting android to run on my htc hd2....
I have been trying to get android to run for the last 5 weeks+ but I have not even got close....
HSPL 2.08 installed.....

Tried every radio known to man in combinations with custom ROMs....."AND NOTHING"
Currently running....

RADIO: 2.12.50.02.2...
SD CARD: SANDISK SDHC 4G CLASS 2...
Formatted the sd card with....SDFormatter V2.0 many times....
I follow all instructions from the professionals I.E the chefs....and also have been very patient with regards to letting android create its .img files sometimes leaving for hours at a time......
I have read copious amounts of threads relating to this issue, so I have not been lazy...... but all avenues circle back to the same conclusion "no android no work"....
The only thing that I possibly hindering me is my sd card, but some say that android runs smooth from these type of cards...so instead of going out and spending a fortune on a top of the range one I thought that I would post this thread first....
Is it something simple that I am missing........?
Please any help would be most appreciative......

the other thing you can do is get the android sdk, install adb, and watch the logcat, it shuld be obvious if it starts to loop, or copy the logcat and post it so someone can help you debug.
my guess, your card's corupted... try formating it to an ext4 file system, then back to fat32. or scan it on a linux box and see if it shows up corupted...

i used to face the same issue. place the android folder in the root of your sdcard
and check your startup.txt for your android path
e.g set cmdline "rel_path=Android"
you've probably did it before....
So why not pay a little money and get a low end SD card for testing? That would tell straight away if there's a problem with the card.
I use a 16GB Sandisk class 2 with no problems and also have a 16GB Kingston class 4 that runs fine.
Never had any problems, except SOD (and there's a fix for that), with these 2 cards.
Both formatted Fat 32 with 32 kilobyte allocation size on a Win 7 machine.
Makes Sense.........
"Enough" is "Enough"
From my previous post I have purchased another SDHC card (TOSHIBA 8GB CLASS 4) for testing android and surprise surprise I am still getting exactly the same problem, not a thing in regards running android. Why is such a simple thing turning out to be so problematic, my head has finally dropped and I am losing the will to live.....?
Common Issues.....
whilst linux is booting android it will always stop at "SMD: ch 1 1 2 -> 2".......... ???????????? i have searched for this with little or no success.
And one thing that I find very confusing is the Startup.txt files... what should it actually say because many people have different opinions.....BOOT or BOOTLINUX ????
Can anyone please please please post a complete setup in regards of rom, radio,etc etc of there HTC HD2 (LEO) European version """(NOT A 1024)"""" running android, so I can compare and find out what the BL**DY hell is going on...

Once again any help would be extremely appreciated....
The only other thing I could think of is that maybe it's the Windows rom that you're using. Haret Android actually makes use of bits and pieces of what winmo leaves behind in memory, and since you are running a rom with cht built in, it may be using the ram memory differently, storing different things in ram addresses that Android doesnt expect. I would back up your NRG CHT build (shouldnt be too bad using XDA_UC), and flash a stock rom or NRG's bare bones Android rom. If it doesn't work, at least it's one more thing you could cross off the list of likely suspects

Sorry guys but I need some serious help getting android to run on my htc hd2....
I have been trying to get android to run for the last 5 weeks+ but I have not even got close....
HSPL 2.08 installed.....
Tried mostly all android builds....
Tried every radio known to man in combinations with custom ROMs....."AND NOTHING"

SD CARD: SANDISK SDHC 4G CLASS 2...
Formatted the sd card with....SDFormatter V2.0 many times....
I follow all instructions from the professionals I.E the chefs....and also have been very patient with regards to letting android create its .img files sometimes leaving for hours at a time......
I have read copious amounts of threads relating to this issue, so I have not been lazy...... but all avenues circle back to the same conclusion "no android no work"....
The only thing that I possibly hindering me is my sd card, but some say that android runs smooth from these type of cards...so instead of going out and spending a fortune on a top of the range one I thought that I would post this thread first....
Is it something simple that I am missing........?
Please any help would be most appreciative......

The plot thickens
Thanks for the suggestion huggs....
I flashed Energy.Leo.COM2.Barebones WM Build.For.Android as you suggested and have been getting some strange results??????
Firstly because that particular build auto boots into android once you switch on your device with an sd card inserted it does not detect either my Toshiba micro 8GB or my Sandisk 4GB SD"HC" cards and says "NO STORAGE CARD HAS BEEN DETECTED"... although saying that I can open file explorer on my device and read both storage cards.....but the auto boot does detect my Sandisk micro 2GB "SD" card and auto boots android but Linux stops at line "usb: product_id 0xff9" and hangs......
Either my hd2 does not like micro "SDHC" cards or it is knackered......

Task 29
disconnect to pc
battery pull
bootloader
flash VBNDroid-Reloaded2Alt-21913-Oct08
format SD card
download [UPD][BUILD][18.11.10]|MDJ FroYo Sense Clean v. 2.4 [kernel: MDJ S6.1]
unzip
put the Android folder to your sd card
with device off - put sd card to device
boot
manually click on clrad then haret (do it fast, you must activate haret while
hardware keys are alight)
print that step by step guide, you can never fail on that.
jingers i preformed task 29 and i can not get my phone into the bootloader ?
Hi there,
One question to all of you having problems with Android. Do you happen by any chance to have extended battery?
I similar problems with Android. One day it worked and the next day it wouldn't and no matter what I did it just refused to work on any build I tried. I was so sure that it was because of the memory card that I even didn't think about the extended battery causing problems.
So if you try everything, including different wm roms, different android builds, changing sd cards and are totally at loss just try any rom with extended battery support or try changing the kernels that support one and then try again.
Provided you've got extended battery and are not too much experienced in Android issues I could bet that this is the cause of your problems.
hi rafian a good shout but no i am not using an extended battery.....
But is does not matter now because i think my phone is bricked after doing a task 29 because it will not enter the bootloader ??????????
Also because it is not entering the bootloader and all i get is the NRG flash screen from my preivious rom and that task 29 has not removed it am i right in thinking if i send my phone off to be repaired / replaced they will see that splash screen and know that i had HSPL installed and void my warranty ???????
I'm sorry to read it Frank. This is the worst case scenario ( .
WHY O WHY did i do a task 29......................
Got my HD2 to work
Hi all,
I also faced many problems in my attempts to make Android run on my HD 2. I got stuck on the startup screen (starting Linux kernel etc).
In the end irrespective of what the other form user stated, you need to install HSPL (article link provided below). Be warned, to install this I had to switch off everything (wifi, BT etc) but phone (and a reset was needed) and had to make sure on windows desktop that Windows Mobile Device Centre was able to communicate with phone BUT was not synching anything.
Once HSPL was installed I found out that my Radio ROM was too old. need 2.07... + (I had 2.06...) I then updated my Radio ROM thenTADA I am now running Android on my HD2.
Here is the link that resolved my issues.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=767513
Hi,
I have been on this forum for the past 2-3 days trying to get android on my gf's HD2 and it just wont have it.
I have tried MCCM's HD v4 Desire one
I have tried Froyo 1.5
I have tried DL Desire Series, both SD and MAGLAR.
The ones where you click CLRCAD.exe then haret.exe either say it doesent have certificates to run or parts are missing. Or it goes to a black scree and gets stuck on "Jumping To Kernel" and it stays like that for ages (tested for 1 hour, never budged)
The DL desire series via MAGLAR wont work either, I need HSPL (sp?) to install MAGLAR but HSPL keeps reporting back that the file Rapi.dll is missing.
My SPL version is 1.42**** so technically thats right ( from what I have read )
I have tried formatting the SD card via PC and device, also tried a factory reset and an additional 2 other SD cards. Still nada.
What else can it be? Someone mentioned the radio but there is so many questions being asked in a specific thread that mine gets lost and since this is more of a global issue I thought a thread of its own is deserved
I really want this and will go to any length to get it ( not keen on ROM flashing thought, would like to avoid turning the handset into a hammer rather than a phone)
Hope I havent busted any rules
Cheers,
Gib
You need radio 2.14 or more for Android.
aka, upgrade your ROM.
You are not alone
You are not alone here.
I have been having this problem too, I get stuck on the HTC white screen. though I haven't tried much ROM but I have tried formating and reflahing of my WM ROM.
I once did a stock ROM official update with: (RUU_Leo_S_HTC_NLD_3.14.404.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2 .15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship)
ever since I have not been able to find how to flash using SPL, I have been flashing using SSPL_RU and my radio is 2.15.50.14.
Could this reason be the problem.
I need help please I want to have a feel of droid.
Know the feeling
I have been trying all the different android magldr sd roms and everytime its the same story. First boot fine. Second boot and on it just hangs at the green htc logo. I have tried so many things i don't know what to do next.
Have you tried one of the Energy ROM's? I found on my unlocked HD2 that these were the only roms (going back a while now) that I could get Android running off an SD card. I've since heard that there is a basically blank rom for people who want to run nothing but android. It's a small rom, only about 30mb.
It's in a few places around the board. I can't remember what the name of that one is off the top of my head, but any of the Energy series, or the Miri ROM's apparently work too.
Good luck!

Solution!
Instructions :
- Download the Android SD version of your choice. Unzip, Extract the 'Android' folder to root of your SD Card. (Make sure to Format the SD card before doing this.)
- After you have done all steps go into Android folder and tap CLRCAD (for working sound), and after that just tap HaRET
-Booting ..
-Enjoy

Ater trying some nand roms i came back to the orignal firmware( the same as you).
And i also have this problem , it just load into a picture with htc on it.
Have you tried using a different SD card? My Sandisk 8gb didn't accept anything. I had an old 512mb laying around that came with my E90, loaded SuperRAM on it (aprox 450mb including data.img) and it booted straight away.
2.15.50.* is the right radio for most SD builds, make sure you have enough free space on SD. most builds have at least 512mb if not 1gb data.img which gets created when first boot. If runs out of space it will get stuck on boot screen. No hspl required with 3.14 HTC winmo rom
I also try to get Android in my HD2 (energy ROM). I am somewhat puzzled however: I want to flick back and forth between WM and Android and many programs I have reside onto my SD card. I have read in an earlier post that before attempting Android I should format my card - does this mean that I cannot have WM data (programs etc) in the same SD card I run android? or that I can transfer them back AFTER I manage (if) to load Android?. Thank you
The SD card has to be formatted in FAT32. Just to make sure the card is clean I copy all my data to my pc, format the card and transfer it all back.

OK thank you - got it!
Unfortunately I cannot get passed the green HTC splash screen - my HD2 stays there for time no end and the only solution is to take battery out. Any suggestions?
Assuming you've got everything set up properly (right radio, hspl, ...) which you can find on the Android forum. I think you'll have to try using a different brand of sd card. Some cards simply don't play nice with Android.
Got uber annoyed with the SD method, just ended up doing a full scale flash to ROM. Was easier lol

I am using Energy ROM (Energy Serie: Energy.Leo.28244.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Feb.12)
My phone just hangs on the white HTC screen when I try to boot into Android from the SD card. I flashed my ROM with SSPL_RU after an update with the Stock ROM (RUU_Leo_S_HTC_NLD_3.14.404.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship)

I would almost agree with that except, i have 2 exactly the same 16 gb cards, each with a 3 gb fat32 primary partition. 1 loads android but wont allow me to do things like take pictures[it says there isn't an sd card.] The second card just hangs at the green htc screen. Even if I copy the working partition to the other card, it still hangs.

Thanks for this Info. I didn't take into consideration that the file will be enlarged during booting. The copied Android folder was 508MB in size but this got enlarged to about 1.3GB during boot up. I thought if I just leave about 1.2GB in all the SD card I have been trying that it should be enough. But I was wrong.
Thanks a lot I have done multiple reboot without any problem.
I am enjoying my first Android feel.
Thanks once again.
Android on HD2 hates most SD Cards
From my own limited experience to also having read many posts I can say that most sd cards prevent Android from running properly on the hd2. Mine works fine with radio 2.14/2.15 and the stock Sandisk 16gb card that came with my tmous hd2, but I recently tried a wintec 16gb card that made Android run like a broke-wheel-cart and other sd cards I have laying around make it fail.
I think everyone needs to add what card they are using to their signature, or else we might all just end up howling in the wind.
Based on some feedback from another post I just ordered this Sandisk 16gb card from Newegg. It is Model # SDSDQ-016G-A11M . It is reported that that model# provides class10 speeds even though it is sold as a class2. It's use with Android is supposed to be good.
I updated my HD2 with Yuki-Xbmod v.1 rom. After experiencing excessive battery drain issue, I decided to restore my HD2 with previous WP7 rom (HD2O_1.14_DFT_LEO70_RELEASE_NO_SHADOW). Restoring process completed smoothly but when the phone started, my SD card was no longer recognizable in old WP7 rom. I restarted my phone removing my SD card and it started smoothly.when I updated the phone into Yuki-Xbmod v.2 rom, phone detects the SD card. I know that when I updated in Yuki-Xbmod v.1/2 rom, my SD card became locked. Does this means I have to stuck only in Yuki-Xbmod v.1/2 rom or is there any other way to install old WP7 rom without formatting the SD card by Nokia phone ?
try to change radio to 5.51.. in data folder in v2 rom and then flash and update and use camera trick and i thing that you will not have huge battery drain
Thanks. I've read this way out of battery drainage in Developers forum. Unfortunately I just don't know how to change the radio version (I'm a rookie here) ! Perhaps some link or guidelines can help me out.
i will try to flash v2 rom with 5.51.. radio today that i changed and if everithing goes good i will upload it and pm it to you if you want
I believe that Yuki Xbmod rom V.2 has been changed with radio 5.51T and uploaded in the developer thread. Let me see if this can be a help.

Yea I'm reflashing it at the moment - the new V2 download does contain the 5.51T radio (which is also fine for EU users).
Just finished working on it. Battery tools shows that this radio version (5.51T) reduces excessive drainage of battery into minimal level. So it works fine with me. But somehow I'm just wondering if I can save my SD card for other usage. I tried to format it in cmd, SD formatter V.3, partition manager, MAGLDR and Canon camera (I don't have Nokia). Unfortunately nothing works for me.
Do your SD card work in a PC? - If not, its because your SD card is lock by your WP7 phone, and you need to do the Nokia trick to get it working again.
/nOrphf
I have the same issue. It's a relief to see someone with my problem, and same symptos, and KNOW it's salvageable. There is just one problem: I HAVE A NOKIA N958GB! DAMN IT! That's like so close, but still so far. Only if I had an N95.....
Is there ANY other way of salvaging the SD?
EDIT: The cards are acctually easy to retrieve! You need the DEV_UNLOCKSTORAGE.cab (look in the WP7 mango (Yuki XBMOD) thread) then your PC can read the card and format it and you're good to go. But if you've allready uninstalled WP7 you will need to do a task29 (just in case) install radio, Then MAGLDR 1.13 and then clear the SD MBR (option 10 in magldr menu) and flash the WP7 ROM. Then I THINK you need to upgrade to mango to be able to use DEV_UNLOCKSTORAGE.cab (you can test and see if it works in 7004) and you're able to unlock the SD. Hope this helps someone!
