If you don't have Hard SPL installed and the right Radio ROM, then you won't be able to flash stuff. You need HSPL2.08 to run Android / WP7 / MAGLDR:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611433

The next thing you need is a Radio ROM that supports 512 MB RAM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611787

READ THOSE THRADS CAREFULLY AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS!

The first thing you have to do is go to this thread and download the HD2 Nand Toolkit from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1090783

1. Then you'll need to turn off your HD2 and while pressing the volume donw key you need to press the power button in order to get to a three color screen (the bootloader).

2. Connect your HD2 to your PC and wait until you see USB at the end of your screen.

3. Start the Toolkit and press Task29. This will erase Windows Mobile.

4. Again go into bootloader (three color screen) and press install Magldr from Toolkit.

5. After that installation you need to hold down the power button while your HD2 is booting and you'll have the Magldr menu.

6. Choose point 4 "USB Flasher" and connect your phone to your PC.

7. Choose the right partition size for your NAND ROM on the left hand side from the Toolkit and your partition size (infos are available at the ROM thread of your choise).

8. By using a card reader or point 4 of Magldr menu ("USB storage") copy your ROM update .zip file to the root of your formated fat32 SD card.

9. Press update and let it work. Wait until your HD2 booted up again, chose menue point 8 "Ad Recovery" and this'll take you to Clockworkmod.

10. Choose "install update .zip" from that and then "choose zip"

11. Go to your rom file and let it work. After that you should be able to use Androind on NAND.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
The post above mine is a very good post. But to be honest all you really need to do is to download the HD2 NAND Toolkit, the .zip file for the ROM of your choice, a radio version that is 2.08.50.?? or higher (this is only if you have EU HD2, T-Mobile HD2's don't need different radio), the Windows Mobile drivers that come with the Active Sync or Windows Mobile Device Center software from Microsoft, and if you want to use clk instead of MAGLDR you will need the Google Android drivers. For way more details on all of this click on the guide linked in my signature.

Also the you can use the HD2 NAND Toolkit to flash anything you need to use Android on your HD2.

hi..newbee here..

I make the change of my windws phone to android last year and it works fine but it lose the "look"of the htc like the clasic home page clock widget and weather feature,like sence, is there a fix for this or i will need another android program??

thnx!
[HD2 General] wavesshock:
Hopefully I understod you correctly :p

So you want "stock" HTC Android home screen? On which version are you? Sense version I mean? It's quite simple. On yyour home screen you'll only have to chose "+" in the left bottom. From there you're able to choose HTC widgets like the "stock" clock. Simply press on add a wigdet and choose your HTC clock.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
Sounds like you are probably using a CM ROM, a ROM based off CM, or a ASOP ROM. These ROMs do not have HTC Sense. If you want the the same feel of the HTC Sense that was on the Windows Mobile ROMs then you will have to pick out a ROM that has HTC Sense in it, or what is referred to as Sense.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ticklefish:
The carrier label is that piece of text that says which mobile network you're using. I'm on Vodafone and I'm in the UK, so when I pull down my notification screen, I used to see this all the time..

Now, I don't need to know which network's signal I'm currently using. The UK's relatively small so Vodafone covers pretty much everywhere I go and if I'm abroad, I still pay them regardless of whether I'm using Orange's signal or anyone else's.

So I decided to change the carrier label to something else.

And I thought I'd let you know how to do it as well.

First, you need to decompile framework-res.apk. If you're on Gingerbread or above, decompile SystemUI.apk as well. SystemUI.apk sometimes has the files we'll need for this and sometimes doesn't, it depends on the rom. If you've got it, decompile it just in case you need it. If you haven't got it, don't worry about it.

(There are a few different ways you can do this. Personally, I'd suggest using Tickle My Android which is available here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1568713 But then...I might be biased..lol)

In the layout folder of either framework-res.apk or SystemUI.apk, find and open status_bar_expanded.xml for editing.

Now, to change the carrier label would actually be quite tricky because you'd dig deep into the smali code. It's far easier just to replace it.

In the .xml file, find this line of code or one similar to it:

The "plmnLabel" is the carrier label so this is the one that displays it.

For some reason, if you just delete the line, your phone won't work and you'll get FC after FC after FC.

So we can't hide the carrier label, we need to hide it instead.

Change the "textAppearance" part to "android:textAppearance="@style/invisible" and delete the "android:textColor="#ffffffff"" part. Then change the "layout_width" and "layout_height" to "0.0dip".

This will now give you the line:

Now add another line just beneath that one that says:

Save the file and close.

This will now apply the style "InvisibleText" to the carrier label and display the string "Mytext" next to it.

Neither the string not the style exist yet, so next we need to make those.

In the values folder of either framework-res.apk or SystemUI.apk, find and open strings.xml for editing.

In that file, add a new line between the lines that say "<resources>" and "</resources>" That new line should say:

(Where it says "Your Text Here", replace that with your own text. Don't make it too long.)

Save and close.

Finally, in the values folder, find and open styles.xml

Add these lines, again between "<resources>" and "</resources>":

Save and close.

Now recompile the app's and push them back to your phone. Only do this with the phone in recovery mode and the /system partition mounted. Do NOT push while the phone's running!

Wait for it to load and that's it. Now, when you pull down the notifications screen, you should see something like this..

(Obviously, with your own theming!)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] cowsquad:
nice guide, but i cant find any of those lines on my current framework-res.apk. im trying to modify the verizon wireless manually, but i cant seem to find the stupid "verizon wireless" text

any suggestions?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmG67:
That is because the "verizon wireless" text is not in any of the files.

There is an Android-system veriable that is called "@id/plmnLabel" you need to search for. Whenever an app, widget or part of the system displays that variable it will automatically be replaced by the carriertext. On your phone it would return verizon wireless, on mine it will say hi :)

If youŕe on a cyanogenmod-based rom, you might check in:

Settings - CyanogenMod - Interface - Statusbartweaks, it might have an option in there to change your carrierlabel to a self-defined one, negating the need to edit systemfiles yourself.

Hope i have helped :)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ticklefish:
I'd forgotten about this thread! I've even deleted the screenshots..sorry!

This is all for the stock 2.1 rom. CyanogenMod roms have a lot of cool features which makes stuff like this a lot simpler. But I kept my X10 Mini Pro on stock, simply for the battery consumption.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Valyence:
so I like the stock Samsung keyboard but I hate that they have the button on the lower right side to accept pen input. I never use it and it makes the spacebar so small that I always it a period instead of a space. anyone know if there is a way remove it so that the.space bar.is.larger....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] RadDudeTommy:
I don't but I'm sure others will.

On another note(LOL), I absolutely hate that keyboard. The pop up from the keys you press are so obnoxiously large, and the way the area where the auto correct disappears when you hit space and reappears when you start typing another word bugs my eyes out like crazy. I do like the size and the appearance of the keyboard. But I hate it so much it drives my eyes nuts.

The stock android one works how I'd like it too, however its incredibly small for the size of the phone.

The stock swype I like but it ****s up in apps like textfree and sometimes glitches and only takes one touch inputs making fast typing impossible.

I have go keyboard but have not used it yet. From what I see I'm not sure it has what I readdy want which I guess would be a mix of stock Samsung size. Stock android look. And swype ability that doesn't mess up. Does anyone know of that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Valyence:
I agree that it does have some annoying features but so.far.for.me.the auto correct has been the best...I have been using swiftkey tablet version but the auto correct is.horrible and. rarely picks up the mistakes and fixes them correctly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gotshoaib:
Ice cream sand witch keyboard from play store helps.

Also in swype go to languages and uncheck all other languages than English, this will give you more accuracy

I made a grave mistake today, I wiped everything in my internal sd card. Now it won't boot anymore. It is just booting from the galaxy s2 logo. I followed the guide in the the wiki of cyanogenmod

The part where i made a mistake is in the "Place the CyanogenMod update.zip file on the root of the SD card." I thought that the root of the sd card is in my external microsd card. So I proceeded and put the update.zip in the microsd card.. Then I did Wipe data/factory reset and Wipe cache partition. After that I tried to find the update.zip but can't find it anywhere.

So I rebooted my galaxy s2, then bang it won't start anymore. It just loops in the galaxy s2 logo part.

So I searched google and found out that I wiped everything in my internal sd card including the stock galaxy s2 software. i made the biggest mistake of the year.

I mistakenly put the cm9 in my external sd card.. The clockwork mod can't read the external sd card. So now i'm stock with a brick galaxy s2

Please help me. I just started this rooting thing and now my galaxy s2 is bricked.

I know the odin application can help me flash a new rom. But i don't know where to proceed. What rom should I download?

If i can install a custom rom using odin i know this can help me fix my problem.

Please guide me. im begging all of you.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wezi:
You say Clockwork Mod can't recognise your External SD card, so i presume you can get into recovery?. if you're running a custom recovery like Clockwork and you can get in to recovery you'll be ok.

Dl a custom rom (checkrom) or kernel which supports external sd card, (like siyah or something) Connect your phone to your pc, and boot into recovery. Go to storage options in recovery and mount your phone. Your internal memory should be available to view in your pc. Copy across the file(s) you downloaded and Install the zip. The custom rom will bring you back to speed, or the custom kernel will allow you to flash whatever you had on your External SD to begin with. I recommend the rom flash though.

There should be plenty of help regarding Odin in the forums. Let us know how you get on.
