It's okay to post dumb questions, but don't act like an ass typing in these big letters

yeah I agree with StephanV, and if you did some searching and reading you would know that until nand is ready we cannot, and if you don't want to go thru the hassle of booting from sd using haret as you make it sound, then don't use android!

once again my advice to the mods: please make a sticky of this question in this subforum! and don't title it nand because newbies won't get it

I've got to the point now where I can't be arsed being nice to people asking the same question over and over again, but in fairness, it's not their fault.
You can't expect them to read page after page of thread after thread to find out that when they want to install Android to the ROM they should ask about installing it to NAND.
I can't believe that there's no stickied thread that clearly states Android ROM flashing, or a dummies guide to installing Android.
It seems all I do these days is tell people they mean NAND and explain that they don't need HSPL because their radio is already suitable!!!!
Rant over - I feel better

[Q] Need some help here please!

Is there any way that I can flash my hd2 to android only ROM and not run android from sd card? if there is please post the links as I am hopeless with search(I have tried).
I am not developer or anything remotely close so try a little harder to help
by the way I have flashed the radio and windows mobile and I am running android from the sd card.
Thank you in advance for your help, and have a great new year everyone.

You'll get it eventually, with a litte sweat and hard work "magic sprinkles" you will have an HD2 running native Android.
Remember to share it with us tho, we will praise you, give thanks to you and of course you will be freaking famous..
great new years to you too!!!

people like this make me sad..... too stupid to read anything, and too helpless to go look for it themselves.
epic fail, you lose one million human points.

this is something that should've been asked on the android Q&A section, not here!
is been asked a million times and it's still not possible, and if you're hopeless with the search buton, how do you expect to be able to do something as complex as work a rom into nand!!

that was very helpful
thank for your hard work
you should have left a link for donation man!

HTC HD2 - Changing to Android. Pls Help

Hi,
I have just purchased a new HTC HD2 on T-Mobile (U.K.) and I am loving it !
I am a total novice and wish to change from Windows 6.5 to the better latest Android OS.
Can anyone please tell me how to do this? I have no idea what I am doing and do not want to do something which may jeopardise the phone (I do know that it does affect the warranty) The only thing I know about 'Flash' it flashing my mobile in public.
I would really like if someone can give me Step by Step instructions via a video so I can see what I am doing.
Any feedback would be really appreciated.
Many thanks

Don't rush anything. Make sure you have a good idea about what you're doing and what you can do if things go wrong. If you're unsure about anything just use the search feature first and if you're still iffy about something, ask a question.

I think you are making this harder than it needs to be. Just follow the instructions given to you in your previously started thread about the same thing. The link to MSkip gives you detailed instructions on how to install Android on your HD2 and how to revert back to WM6.5 if you so desire.

Thanks for the reply. What is the latest version of Android for HTC HD2? The link you gave me, is that the latest version?

Google is your friend. Haven't used it in a while. If you are that unsure of flashing Android to your HD2 just buy an Android powered phone. Sorry to be so brash but just follow the instructions.

Still lost

DoctorGore said:
I'll try to explain a bit. First off you've got to install the things that let you install Android in the first place (HSPL, MAGLDR, CWM etc) and after that you install a ROM. A ROM is the thing that will decide what version of Android you phone will have. If you don't like the ROM you have, or if you just want the newest version of Android, all you have to do is change it. You don't have to re-install everything again, just your ROM.
You might have to change your CWM partition size when you choose a new ROM, but the chef (person who made the ROM) will let you know what size you need in the thread. This is also easy and doesn't require you to re-install everything. Don't worry if you don't know what a CWM partition is because it'll make sense eventually.

Go to the HTC website and flash the latest stock ROM 3.14 for HD2. After this all you need to do is download a ROM from the SD Android section, place the Android folder on the root of your SD card (i.e. not in any folders), go to file explorer, in Android run CLRCAD and then HaReT.

Luckily I'm on O2 UK so I may be able to attach it. I've never tried this though so sorry if it doesn't work.
You tell me if it worked.
EDIT: clearly it didn't. You can try this one though.

Ok, i think it´s not possible.

[Q] after trying to delete main google account my phone stuck on "droid" screen

[Q] after trying to delete main google account my phone stuck on "droid" screen
I just wanted to change the main google account to enter the market. I just made a little search and I sth. says that "open root explore, go data=> system => find accounts.db and rename it accounts.db.bak" I've that this and nothing changed. Another one was saying "Go Applications=>Manage Applications google apps clear" I've done it too but no difference again. then I see this vid /watch?v=aFinbsXqTE0, system=> framework => rename framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk.bak" but after the "force close" the phone reset itself and stuck on "droid" screen.

Part of the forums rules is not to use foul language by the way, I don't care but some people might so you should refrain from doing so.
As for your problem, you will probably have to follow the above post's advice. I don't understand why you couldn't have just changed the account through the market? Why bother with root explorer and deleting/renaming potentially crucial files? Makes no sense.

Finally, I got some answers! I feel like I'm in Fringe or sth.

-story time
My phone came from Germany and I live in Turkey. There are so many taxes and prices are higher and higher.

I remember that it was firstly opening as windows m. (white back, green front) and then turns a screen that loads android and keeps going. I guess that means ROM. how do we do hard reset? or reflash? thanks.

Then sorry for the word. I hope that It wouldn't be problem for the admin. actually in the subtitles of the movies, they translate it as "hell", "damn" or etc.
-story again
I used it with my simcard at the first week when I get my phone and entered the market with a HTC sense account. But after the first week my damn operator closed the my phone to calling because of I haven't registered it yet with a passport. Then I have to use it without the card until I find a passport and when I took off the simcard the HTC sense passed away and when I tried to open market it asked me the password of the account and I had no idea about it.

Download the HD2 NAND toolkit, boot your phone into bootloader, connect USB to computer and run a Task29. This will clear everything from your phone. From here you can flash radio, magldr, cwm and ROM as normal

I've hold the vol down button until the colors but the toolkit just can not find it
Edit: My Windows is downloading a driver "Qualcoomm CMDA Technologies MSM". it must be the driver that serbian guy told me

I've just done the work with the toolkit! but it doesn't seems like I've done it with the phone. It's showing me the white screen with green htc sign since a few minutes. I don't know if I have to do sth. else
