and i'm using chukydroid room ...so please somebody can really help me with this ..i'm afraid that my phone get damage and I could never use it!!!
Thanks a lot

What android build are you using?
All you do is drag and drop the android folder on the root of your sd. After that, while booted into windows, use the file explorer to open the android folder. Click on clrad then haret. If you are using chuckydroid rom, you don't need to manually touch haret. Use ebl boot load program and set auto boot.

Can I just ask what size and class of SD card you are installing onto?

i'm using this build...nexusHD2 FRG83_V1.5_(froyo2.2.1)
i tried using EBL but says there is no android room on sd card!!
and now i'm trying to go back to wm6.5 and i don't know how to do it?? this chukydroid room is totally out of my knowlege..if you can give me a hand to going back to windows, i much appreciate and i'll invite you a couple of beers lol ...thanks a lot for you time

just boot into your chuckydroid rom, connect via usb, and flash a new rom with the nbh file. its just the same as any windows rom flash.

um. you are unzipping the android folder that you download first right? if your just downloading it and then drag and dropping it to the root of your SD card it isnt going to work. you have to unzip it first. sorry if i'm stating the obvious here...

1. Download your desired build from vogue hero then place and rename it to system.sqsh on your SD card
2. Extract contents of basefiles from vogue-android to your sd card, along with haret.exe, and default.txt
3. These are all you should need. If you get a white screen after you run haret then you need to open default.txt and change your panel type or just download a different one from the code site with the panel type you need to change to.
Hope this helps..your phone enters a wonderful new world with Android

[Q] FroyoStone Never finishes installation

Hi there,
I've downloaded, unzipped and tried to install the froyo twice on my HTC HD2 but it never seems to complete the installation, it stays on the installation screen like for ever until I get tired and take the batteries out for a restart.

give it up to 20 minutes on first boot
Thanks for ur response, I'll try it and let u know what happens.
Tried it again and left it to run for like an hr and still nothing happened, but this time I read the proceedings and realized it said "couldnt file root on SD card"
rootfs file might be zipped. If it is unzip it and put it into your android folder. If it is there and not zipped format your SD card and try again. Also what radio are you using? Make sure you copy all the contents into an android folder and then copy the android folder to your SD card as well.

Question about booting android

Im trading my HD7 for a HD2 on monday and i was looking at roms, i was placed into an instant confusion. What does it me to put files into sdcard/andriod, do you have to make your own folder cause im pretty sure the sd card doesnt already have that folder and how do you go to haret.exe from the phone itself? the hd7 functions are not the same so maybe thats why i have no idea whats going on.
Please help
-Thank You
Here's a link to the procedure to add Android using SD builds. Once you do the required steps, Haret, etc. will be added and you will not need to manually add them yourself. If you do not need Windows, I would recommend the NAND ROMs using CWM. Using CWM, you will be able to quickly change ROMs. Also, I found that the NAND ROMs boot faster and use less battery in standby and actual use.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881958
Basically what that means is to create a folder on the root of your SD card called "Android" and copy the ROM files to it then on your phone go to WinMo's built-in file manager and open the Android folder and run CLRCAD (audio file) then Haret.exe and you'll boot in to Android.
thank you for the replies, but would you mind giving me a step by step instruction for the NAND boot too then if thats more recommended since i wont be using windows anymore.

[Q] 2 roms in SD card ...is possible?

hallo guys I want to install 2 ROMS in SD card for my HD2 device.
a sense and a MIUI one ,,but I want to have both installed!
in order to run everytime which I want...
is this possible ? can you explain and help?
many thanks!!
Yes, it is.
In the folder with the files in (probably named 'Android') there is a file called startup.txt. Change the folder name to whatever you want (e.g. 'MIUI' or 'Sense') then within the folder open the startup.txt. There will be a line saying rel_path=Android (or whatever the name of the folder originally was). Change this to rel_path=your folder name and boot. I can't remember if the line is exactly like that, so keep the formatting the same (i.e. the same spaces, signs etc.) and only change the Android bit.
thank you! and after I boot into windows how I will choose which I want?
(MIUI or SENSE named?)

Well I guess you would have to uninstall any automatic loaders you have and manually browse through the files and choose the right CLRCAD and HARET from the desired folder
ok thank you !!!
Hi gesamgr,
follow the download link for the exceller autoloader in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737001
On bootup sequence it shows you the opportunity to choose which OS you'd like to boot - multiple OS as SD version included! Remember to follow the instructions carefully.
best regards
Getrid
Use MAGLDR 1.13 for booting into WINDOWS or any ANDROID ROM.
Just use Boot AD SD for booting into Android.
Change the folder for booting different android ROMs using SERVICES....Boot Setting.....Android SD Folder.
I have 3 roms in SD
just point the way in Magldr

Help!! Problem hd2 dual boot (ics 4 & Wm6,5)!!!

Hello everybody!!!
I'm a very noob user, so i please a need a step by step help!
I tryed to install a dual boot on my hd2, with android ICS (MIUI) on SD, and windows mobile 6,5 on NAND.
To get that result i used this Guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504369
..but, in the the guide is written:
"Instructions:
Well you know just extract everything and put the miuiics folder in your root of sd card, you know the rest.."
maybe a link to the guide is better then "you know the rest..."!
I don't Know the rest, and I proceded in this way:
1) Inistalled the MAGLDR
2) copyed the rom of android on a SD card
3) Configured the setting to make a boot to SD and Android working perfectly!!
Now I even need to use windows mobile 6.5, but I don't know to switch on it!
I think that MAGLDR is overwritten on WM6.5 rom, and now I have a phone with only android, where is impossible to make a dual boot!!!
Anyone can write me the procedure step by step to retry to install correctly the dual boot with WM6,5 and android MIUI ics? Is even good a link with a guide that I didn't found!!!
I have 2,08 HSPL.
Thanks anticipately for your explains!

First link explains how get Android installed and running from SD using CLRCAD.EXE and HaRet.exe = "you know the rest..."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732380
and also a link how to get WM back on the HD2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
BTW: the link you attached is not a guide, it is the ROM itself with few instruction for people who have already some experiences
Cheers.....LinChina
Please do some more reading before flashing anything, if you didn't have an HD2 you would probably end up hard bricking your device if you didn't read. MAGLDR replaces WinMo. You need to boot into the bootloader, flash an official stock ROM via USB then run the SD build via CLRCAD and HARET.

OK you seem to be very confused with your terms, so I'll simplify things for you:
1. Turn the phone off
2. Boot into the bootloader (stripey screen) by holding power and volume down
3. Flash the latest 3.14 stock ROM (WinMo) for your particular device (see on HTC's official website, it has the downloads plus a guide)
4. Place the 'Android' folder on the root of your SD card. Note that the name of this folder may vary from build to build, but it is always the folder containing all of the files.
5. Boot into WinMo then find the file explorer
6. Open the 'Android' folder (or whatever it's called) and find the file 'CLRCAD.exe' and run it. You will not see any visual change
7. Find the file 'HARET.exe' and run it. Android will be booted.
8. After first boot, be patient. Give the device time to settle and then once everything seems fine (after at most 5 minutes) reboot.
9. Once you reboot, you will have WinMo again. Simply repeat steps 6 and 7 to boot into Android.
If this guide isn't simple enough for you, then in all honesty I don't think I can help you much, you'll have to find someone who's more noob-friendly

Thank you so much for the help, but i just tryed this way!!!
In my situation, at point 8 of the guide, my phone restarts after about 30 second (no 5 minute) and then go in loop...
After the restart, the phone enter in WM and ask me to run CLRCAD.exe, and HARET.exe (in this order) and i accept.
The phone starts the loading screen of android, and restarts again.
It always restarts, without going into Android! I have seen at least 10 restarts before try to install Magldr!!!
I don't know the cause, but i think that android ICS is not compatible with the "Android loader V6". I used this loader with android gingerbread without problem!
Now in the link with ROM, i read:
"Ported using Portadroid Ultimate v4.0: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1094372 "
but the page does not exist!!!! What is portadroid ultimate? is it the bootloader?
I'd not worry about the bootloader and other terms much if I were you, it's not important for SD Android anyway
I apologise if I can't be much more use but I haven't used SD Android in a long time . The only thing I can think of is this: EDIT: see bottom of the post first, then try this
1. Find the SD Android build which you have downloaded on your PC
2. Open the folder and find the file 'startup.txt'
3. Find the line 'Rel_path=' and make sure that the next word matches the name of the folder in which the build is stored, for example if I had an SD build with the folder name 'Android', that line in startup.txt should also say 'Rel_path=Android'.
The only other thing I can think of is that somehow the folder isn't in the root of your SD card. Make sure the folder which contains the files (so in the example I gave previously this folder would be called Android) is copied to the root of your SD card. There should be no sub-folders or anything like that, just /Android.
EDIT: I think I may have found it now, try uninstalling the automatic loader app you have (Android Loader V6) and running these files manually rather than doing it automatically. If I'm not mistaken, this app looks for a folder named 'Android' by default, but the name of the folder your ICS build is stored in may be something different.
Just to add that ICS SD builds are often in an 'ICS' folder instead of 'Android'
It shouldn't matter using CLRCAD.exe, and HARET.exe though.

That is correct. If I read it right, Android Loader had been set up already for a previous build. When you do this, you tell the app what folder to look for - i.e. "Android". Now that you have a different build, different folder name, the app cannot find all the associated files to boot from SD properly.
Your folder name is miuiics
