Hi guys,
I installed the CyanoGenMod 7.1.0.2 and I have to say that the logo is really interesting but, u know, 10 minutes watching the same circle while trying to "touch the android to begin" are sufficient...
Like ever, I didn't make a copy of backup before follow the procedure to install this rom (yes I'm stupid)...
Now, I'm downloading the 7.1.0.1 but i can't copy it into the SD card because windows doesn't see my xperia (because I can't skip this loop)
same old question: what can I do?
maybe insert the sd card in another phone and copy the 7.1.0.1 version of cyanogenmod and install through clockworkmod?
or there are any other solutions? (because at the moment i haven't another phone to try this way)
thanks for your answers
EDIT: sorry, I posted in the wrong section (I was sleepy and sure that I was posting on Q&A)... could anyone move this thread in the correct section? thanks

OK, I just installed the latest Froyostone android and WOW ! This is quite incredible, it's a fully functional Android on my HD2 ! Runs even faster than WM !
I didn't find any bugs yet...
Few questions..
1. Does this run from the SD ? Or did it install to the main device ROM when I first launched it ?
2. What does that mean in terms of rooting, getting in recovery, etc ? Do I need to "root" it ? How do I get in Recovery to type all sorts of commands that I see on guides ?
3. From what I can see, appstore apps install to the root SD card - That can get messy.. any way around it ?
4. Is EVERYTHING related to Android on my HD2 inside the "Android" folder in the SD card ?
5. Top 5 apps to install for a fresh Droid HD2 ?
6. Any other useful words for a beginner ?
7. Is it safe to charge in Android ?
8. I always have to boot WM first to launch Android right ?
THANKS
Read the stickies they contain all the information you have just asked
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Promise to look around in the 80 pages of that thread (Someone should make a FAQ out of it)
But if anyone have a couple minutes for me I would really appreciate it !
Thanks for looking !
EDIT - OHHHH the sticky on the DEV forum !!! I gotcha, Will get to it now thanks !!
1. Does this run from the SD ? Or did it install to the main device ROM when I first launched it ? Runs from SD
2. What does that mean in terms of rooting, getting in recovery, etc ? Do I need to "root" it ? How do I get in Recovery to type all sorts of commands that I see on guides ? not sure what you mean
3. From what I can see, appstore apps install to the root SD card - That can get messy.. any way around it ? nope, but I always make a backup of my SD card, you get used to seeing all kinds of folders, but you can still run your WM and android with the same SD card no problem, just make sure before adding a new Android build, start with a fresh formatted SD, then install android, then drag and drop all your other files back onto the SD card.
4. Is EVERYTHING related to Android on my HD2 inside the "Android" folder in the SD card ? Nope will be all over the place
5. Top 5 apps to install for a fresh Droid HD2 ? Setcpu, angry birds demo, Laputa reader, radiotimeplayer, Swype keyboard
6. Any other useful words for a beginner ? play about, enjoy the marketplace, its not 100% perfect yet, but getting there.
7. Is it safe to charge in Android ? yep
8. I always have to boot WM first to launch Android right ?yep, but android is so stable you dont have to do this much YEP
THANK you for your time !!
Re #2 - I mean in some Android tutorials I see you can input command lines etc, to change system settings, while in "recovery mode"
How do I get to " android recovery mode" with the HD2 ? No biggie though.
Re #3, Do you just Backup your stuff (Music, books, etc) and then, before installing new Android, do you just format and put the new Android folder on there ? You totally discard the application folders and start clean ?
I see there is a way to backup some of the settings in the sticky, so I will read it.
SetCPU I assume is to lock the Leo on it's max speed, like LeoCPUSpeed for WM- Nice.
Thank you very much again lad !

For the time being yes, however nand is just around the corner so technically the answer to this question will eventually be no

#2 the ROMs are already rooted, all you need is a terminal emulator from the market.
Nice, thanks !
I am trying to install a pre-made script (exe), it should install some stuff automatically (lang, keyboard etc) and the guy who made it says you must run it in recovery mode for it to work.
How do I use the script on my HD2 ?
Thanks ! I'm lovin' android so far.
With the FutureShocks v7.5 ₪ MIUI 1.1.14 rom for SDCARD -- I keep getting stuck at the HTC Boot screen. How long does this rom normally take?
Ive tried this twice by deleting it and putting the android folder back on. I havent tried reformatting the SD Card yet, I'm going to try to reformat the sdcard and figure out what I need to do.
But I didnt know if there were any tips or tricks on this ROM and I didnt want to hijack anyone elses threads that could be pertinent to someone elses rom. I'd post in development but i dont have enough posts so please people/mods don't be mad at me.
Im not trying to be a noob, Im just trying to be respectful. I would use the search feature but due to the browser that I'm using on my box, I'm lucky that I can even post.
-- Edit:
Ok so I tried doing a Quick Format on the SD Card and putting it on again. Nothings happening... any suggestions!?!? What should I do..?
Edit2:
I think I figured it out, we'll see here in a bit, I wasnt paying attention and had renamed the folder but didnt change the path in startup.txt -- well I did it how i should and i think it'll work. I did a stupid nub mistake
Hi, this is my first post here
I've been here for a long time (well didn't have a handset so didn't find the need to join...)
I read through many articles and learned a lot from this forum
Last weekend I got my T-Mobile HD2 and I proceeded to install custom rom soon after
(latest Energy rom by NRGZ28- thanks)
The rom is awesome, it's just that I wanna try out android on my phone also...
I decided I'll try the SD first
So I followed a guide just downloaded the rom I want (MCCM GB V2.0 Gingerbread HoneyComb Sense theme) unzip, then copy to the root of my sd, run clrcad (don't know what he meant by working sound- I heard nothing) then run haret....
Then I am always stuck at the green letters screen forever, never get further...
I'm not sure what is wrong
I looked through all possible things
I did HardSPL4 and now has HSPL2.08, I got a custom rom
The only thing I did not change and think might be the problem is the radio...
my version is 2.10.50.26
Would flashing an updated radio make my android on sd work?
Is this "Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14**" ok for my HD2? (on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787)
Thanks for the help nice to talk to everyone~

Ha I guess you did not like the first option, so I will edit the whole post.
Running Andriod from SD is very simple as long as you follow the instructions to the T. If the Andriod folder you copied to your SD card has another folder in it that you have to open to get to CLRCLAD and HARET then you need to copy that folder to the root of your SD card. It is also important the name of the folder is Andriod. The first time you boot the Andriod it can take up to ten minutes sometimes cause it has to creat folders, files, and pathways. So maybe you are not giving it enough time to boot all the way up beforeo you hit the reset button or do a battery pull. Your SD card also needs to be formated correctly you want to format it usimg Fat 32, please make a back up copy of your card also if you reformat it as it will wipe it clean. Last but not least you may just have a bad download. Try redownloading the build and recopy it to your SD card then run CLRCAD and HARET.
The only thing a radio will do is cure robot sounding voices during a phone call while running Andriod but most builds now have that solved and are compatible with the current radio 2.15.50.14. Also when you touch on CLRCAD you will see or hear nothing it enables the sound on the Andriod build.
Last but not least being you have a TMOUS (T-Mobile) HD2. Be adviced that you most flash a radio version that has a 50 in the third set of numbers like 2.xx.50.xx. Do not flash a radio that has a 51 in the third set of numbers like 2.xx.50.xx. or a radio that looks like this 2.04.50.xx or 2.05.50.xx as they will brick your TMOUS HD2 reindering it usless for nothing but a paper wieght. And the only way to unbrick a HD2 is with a JTAG and a ORT wich will cost you and you will have to take your HD2 apart to fix.
O_O is the issue that difficult?
I don't mind calling though
Thanks

Hi!
My HTC HD Mini was left and unused for few months after replacing touch-glass.
There were some issues like ie. not working wifi, vibra or sound.
Today it works. BUT. I left device becose i had SE Xperia X10 mini and i hate work on windows.
Nowadays, as my X10 died, i decided to go back to HD Mini. Luckily i found that there is a way to run Android on it.
So, i downloaded some quite old version (and then some newer CM7 - tried both), put it on sd and tried to load. It hang up for more than 20 min, so i rebooted (as it schould 5-10 min).
Now it reboots after status bar goes to 100% - so it takes about 20-30 seconds.
I got an idea to upgrade my winos (OS: 5.2.23103, ROM: 1.36.479.1), but when it goes to flash mode, it says 'starting', waiting for few seconds, and then "i can not upgrade your device" or whatever. Device only reboots.
Ofcourse i've searched forum and google for something simillar, but, maybe, i do not know how to ask.
Sorry for my english.
Thanks in advance,
Gloomwing
about SDCard, it could be problem of your sdcard is bad, bad sdcards won't work well with android.
and the NAND, Not sure about that, but you may try another ways or use the newest CWM that also works with schlund's ROM
Yup, I'll try with another SD (i have 2GB one which cames with X10) and will give info.
About NAND i prefer to run droid from SD at the moment - just do not want to risk installing OS that may not work on my device.
It works with ADATA 16GB, 10.
Did not try with windows update. Just installed Droid on NAND.
(furter issues in main topic of "[ROM] CM9 4.0.4 ICS HTC HD Mini [16.Jul.2012]"
Thanks and regards!
glad to see you so it was SDcard problem..
have fun..
Ok, i can not drop any post on main topic, so i will write here:
I read main topic, but it will last...
1. YES!, we need instruction (easy howto) about installing new ROM (i made it somehow, but i have some experience with X10)
2. Battery is messed up, but it works. It even last more than a day. Had some issue with 99% CPU usage - found some info to flash update - AGAIN! - we need howto!
3. My Photon freezes sometimes. I changed sleep time in screen section, and it helpes somehow. Maybe, again, battery issue? As i have less problems while battery over 50% or Trebuchet?
Many thanks and best regards!
(can anyone drop it in main topic?)
Let me know which one you're trying to install??
Hey
I am the owner of a Samsung xcover2 - s7710. I have ben looking for a Way to get cm mod installed. It is not possible to move apps to sd Card on it it seems, and Winther only 1 gb storage left I Got tired of the Samsung ROM.
I managed to get the Phoenix rooted first.
Next I Got the cwm recovery installed using odin.
Now I cannot seem to find my sd Card where the cm files are... How do I get that to show or mounted in a way?
Nxt is there a step by step tutorrial I Can use and if someone Can point me to it, on how to get the cm, I Think I have read that some caches need to be reset along the Way? So a step by step guide World be awesome.
And when I get it installed there are no apps on it is there? So I need to get some Google apps for it, and does it come in a bundle for that specific phone or is there a standard package, and how to install?
Sorry if I seem a retard, but I find it bit hard to navigate here.
And I apologize if I have misspelled alot in This msg - writing from ipad and the gawd awful keyboard and autocorrection...
Thx
