Serial flasher now getting "NAND OPEN KERNEL FAILED" - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

So - I'm no expert but I've flashed enough Roms in my time and suddenly it's all gone horribly wrong.
I have done
1) Task 29 with 2.15.50.14 - SUCCESS
2) Installed MAGLDR 1.13 - SUCCESS
3) Installed Recovery 3.0.2.6 - SUCCESS
4) Copied ROM to SD card (one that always worked before) - SUCCESS
Now get NAND OPEN KERNEL. I'm stumped. I've checked the recovery has the partitions that the ROM requests and I've checked other SD cards. All format properly.
What to do

I've searched the forums to find someone that's had the exact issue if that's what you meant.

And you're sure that nobody has this same problem, and that it isn't that you're putting the CLK version of the ROM on your SD card?

Thanks for response.
People have had the this issue, yes. But no-one that has done everything right. The ROM i am using is a NAND rom that worked before (but I checked with two other ROMS and still have the same problem).
I purposely wrote each step so you can see exactly what I have done. I cannot see what I have done wrong. I am starting to think its a phone hardware issue.

Sorry I may have seemed patronising at the start, having ironically not properly read the OP. In that case you could start over with a task 29 and so on (not really sure as to how to do all of this but it shouldn't be too hard)

Double fail by me. Really sorry. Hey, at least I'm bringing attention to this thread eh?

Yes, thanks for that...

Can someone help me please. Also tried ClK but I get stuck on Poertchange. I think my HD2 maybe now be dead as I have tried every step correctly (I assume).
Am I all of a sudden doing something wrong?

Try flashing the original wm6.5 rom, if it works then try android afterwards. One possible thing it could be is bad blocks. After you flash the rom BEFORE you reboot, select from advanced options the one that logs your installation, and check it for errors.
One last thing is make sure you cwm sizes are correct.

Thanks - that's an excellent idea (flashing the 6.5 rom) not least because it's the only think I havent tried.
From memory, 6.5 is flashed straight from bootloader with RUU so there I'm not able to get in to advanced options. Or are you saying after flashing 6.5, install MAGLDR, CWM and Android ROM THEN check for bad blocks before booting the new Android Rom??

Flashing 6.5 worked! Android is back
Out of interest how does that correct it!?

It could have been either a faulty cwm flash, corrupted boot partition, or bad blocks. I'm guessing corrupted boot. if it was blocks, widnows wouldn't have flashed right.

[Q] HD2 Nand ROM issue - freeze's on first reboot

Hi there
i've had a search through the forums and google, but havent come up with anything...
the isue is, after flashing a new CWM NAND ROM on my HD2, the rom will load perfectly the first time. however the issue is when i try to reboot the phone... it loads through cwm, but hangs on loading the rom...
this has happened on several different rom's, and after several task29/mgldr/cwm re-flashes...
Any ideas?

Have you tried doing absolutely nothing after first boot, other than skipping through the setup wizard? What I'm wondering is what you may be installing / doing that could be causing this.
One thing that could help is to run logcat with the phone connected during bootup and you could see what is causing it.

Yeah, looking at your log, you are definitely in a boot loop. Android keeps restarting after what looks like initializing the audio... looks like some files are missing.
What ROM are you using? Have you applied anything (updates) else at all through CWM other than the ROM? Does the ROM you are using require an SD-EXT partition? Is your SD card in the phone?

Which version of CWM are you using? Is it 1.13? Whatever it is, what size did you flash (the partition layout) for your system partition?

I'm using the latest versions of Magldr and CWM. I flashed a 250Mb system partition.

Are you sure that is a large enough partition? Is that what the ROM developer recommends?

just use the "daf" folder that comes with the build once you unzip it.
it has the CWR setting configuration all done ready for the build
just flash it.
My issue is: When phone loads android from NAND (sometimes it freezes in GO GO GO) I can use it some unpredictable time. FE. When I switching Mobile Network on it(after 1-2 it freezes). I even upgraded radio to 2.15. No changes still freezes. Second point is, when I turn off radio module and starting using dev. (FE while playing Angry Birds) it freezes again, with the noise on spekers. In my case I detaching battery and waiting for a while (because if you put battery again after a second) it freezes on GOGOGO again. WTF with device. Maybe it is a physical problem?
Dev is TMOUS HD2 16gb.
ps. When I used Android via SD same freeze always happened only with Angry Birds. In WinMo I didnt recognize such issues. Oooh. One more thing. When I tried to go back to WM 6.5 off.ROM. nothing happened after upgrade. I think my device will always live with Android till the end of the days. Thank you in advance!

plz help!

i just got my htc hd2 cause someone stole my old one, on my old one, it was easy 2 put android on the sd, with my new hd2 no rom will work, it loads, but when android turns on it will lag, and apps crash and say force close, and the market wont work, i tried this and mcc's 4.5 and its the same thing happening, what should i do?
Have you tried a full wipe in clockwork and then installed? Do that as your first option and if that doesn't work then Task29, reflash MAGLDR/cLK then clockwork and then your ROM.
im noob, i dunno what clockwork is and how 2 do that? and i never used mgldr/clk on my old hd2, i just did a simple drag and drop onto my sd card, then flashed it, and it always worked fine, now when it works, theres always problems, also, do you know how i can reformat my sd card? ty for help, appriciate it!

If you don't know all that stuff... you should not be trying to root or ROM yet. Go check out T-Macgnolia's post. You shoulld really read up on it before you monkey around with your phone.
Sounds like he's running from the sd card, not NAND. Have you flashed HSPL and radio yet? Please look around the forums. There are some excellent guides to get you started

Yeah you need to install HSPL and a new radio. Again, there are several guides on how to do this. Search around a bit. One thing though, if it was me, I would just install on NAND and bypass windows altogether. The guide linked above should tell you all about it and how to do it.

+1 I agree with dung and install NAND.

I thought I'd post here since I'm having a problem with android install and I'm a noob as well (probably more noob than the person posting here). I tried installing nand android on my HD2 and followed the steps exactly. At least I'm pretty sure I did. I installed MAGDLR, then the recovery, and then android. Everything seems fine when booting except it just hangs at the HTC screen. I left it at the HTC screen over night since I heard the first boot would be long. So now I am wondering what are my options. I wanted to install WM again so I can retry the android rom install but since it stuck at the HTC screen, device manager doesn't see it. I didn't brick it did I? Thanks for your help in advance!

Couple things, did you first install HSPL and radio? Those go on before anything else. Second, how did you install the rom? Through usb or through recovery? Lastly, if you flashed via recovery, how did you transfer the zip to sd card? CWM has been known to corrupt files during transfers. I would recommend using a usb card reader or through magldr's usb mount option.
Actually one last thing. Make sure you have selected the correct recovery size. A ROM requiring 150mb will work on a 400mb partiotion, but not the other way around.

It's actually MAGLDR that corrupts files, not clockwork.
It's most likely that you don't have the right partition size though. You can change the partition by going to your clockwork file on your PC, opening it, then look for a file 'flash.cfg' and right click on it and open it in a text editor, then editing the line "system ya | 150" to whatever the ROM needs. The '150' will most likely be 150, 300 and 400 etc. so just change the numbers and save it.
ok i will try and do nand, what is one of the best nand to use, ty so much for help.
Hmm maybe you're right skelly, not sure. Either way it's best to use a card reader.

I would have always said one of the CM versions... great ROMs. Finally tried MIUI this week in preperation for putting it on my woman's G2 (always thought it looked like a girly ROM). OMG I'm hooked! I don't think I can ever go back to CM again. It's blown me away.
But you cannot go wrong with the popular CM ROMs. I tried the Sense one also for the eyecandy I love... but none of them ran smoothly for me.

Ok, as you are in the bootloader mode. Download this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783
And run Task29. This will delete everything but your radio on the phone so you will have to reflash Magldr. You can use this tool to flash magldr also. If you get that far then partition the phone according to the rom instructions. Then try to flash the rom again.

I did the following:
Installed HSPL 2.08
Installed MAGLDR
Use the DAF.exe with MAGLDR on the phone
Then I went to AD Recovery and wipe full data and Dalvik
Then I installed ROM via SD card.
I did the following:
Ran task29.exe
Installed Radio Leo 2.15.50.14
Installed MAGLDR
DAF.exe
Then I installed ROM via SD card in CWM.
Im sorry but it sounds right, what you did. all i can advice you to try ist start ALL over, first by rooting (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953)
and then just follow the instructions given on the coredroid download, they are very detailed and unless you miss a step by accident (which was what i did) it should work.
and dont forget to give the first boot some time, it may take up to 15 minutes (sometimes even longer) but dont worry its just the first one!
good luck, and if you try please post the results, hd2 has left me down woth a few rooms a couple of times but in the end it always worked, even if it took many reflashes!!

The problem is that everything goes much too slow. Booting isn't an issue. but Everything regarding apps and calls and such just goes really slow.
When I get called, I can pick up. but I can't hang up because the phone just freezes.
Every app I install (which always takes roughly 3-5 minutes per app, after download) I have to constantly wipe the screen to keep it awake, if the screen sleeps during install, the phone completely freezes and I have to pull out the battery.
I wonder what is causing this, and if anyone has/had this problem before on a different ROM?
I have ext4 on my SD, shared storage or whatever it is called.
I have read some stuff about speeding that up or something, but I don't understand it.
I'm thinking it has to do with that. I installed/done everything following tutorials, so I should've done everything right.

Have you dont the following ? its in his main post . it seems like what you are experiencing is common .
1.. DON'T expect it will work out of box.
2. DON'T expect it will be as light and fast as Gingerbread.
3. DON'T expect that some legacy problem will disappear
4. Reboot your phone at lease twice after flashing or installing, after 1st boot into setting screen, long press the right button to recall the boot menu, reboot. Can not use /Update_DL method to install app before 3rd reboot.
5. For this version, due to the base has been changed throughly, can not use previous data.img or ext4, remove existing data.img and set data_img=1 to let system generate one for you, or set format_ext4=1 to format your ext4 if you are using ext4
6. DON'T set any config for 1st installation except data_img=1(for data.img) or format_ext4=1(for ext4 user). if your have tmous phone, no need the config.txt.
7. For SD or magldr, if 1st installation failed, must delete the system.ext2 file under /Desire_DL to let system convert it again.
8. Use Windows notepad create a file named config.txt, save it under /Desire_DL, only need to put the necessary config inside it, say:
data_img=1

My advice go here http://android.hd2roms.com/ and pick a rom without issues like hyperdroid 5.8.0. Leave ICS alone for a while.
No offence intended to Dandiest but his last post was months ago

Read what I've quoted and follow . Like reboot a couple of times and such things as that . And this is an sd build correct ? From the link provided that's the impression I got .

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm using NAND. I'm using the NAND version of the Dandiest.
Also, I've had this rom for like a month now.
There are plenty of guides out there, get the nand toolkit (it simplifies things a lot,thanks to ksubedi). Read the guides carefully !!
Have a look here...

Best of luck.
By the way have you tried a factory reset.. if you can back up your apps and data this might solve your problem!!
