[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] LGHT:
I picked up a phone used online for a good deal as is. When I turned it on it was in a loop on magldr 1.1 I eventually got it to boot after wipping the data on the phone. I've never owned or rooted a phone, but i'm an old school pc guy who has been rooting things like SNES, psx 1,2,3, DC, wii, xbox etc. I know some linux, unix, and of course dos and windows so I'm sure it's not hard to figure this thing out.

I did a search and found out what MGLDR is and found out how that I have hardspl 2.08 already setup.

My question is can I upgrade the MAGLDR and now that the phone does boot I noticed it's saying i'm almost out of drive space?? I also can't get it to connect to my xp computer because it never finds all the drivers so I can't mount a drive.

Can someone point me to a guide that walks me through what was already done and what I need to do to get more space on the phone? I already put in a 2gb sd card, but not sure how to move or remove apps so I don't get the error about low disk space? I would also like to use win 7 if possible and not droid.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] adil1508:
Well firstly, use task29 to wipe your internal memory. This will erase magldr, your rom, partition etc. Your phones internal memory will be clean. However, it doesnt wipe hspl or radio so your good.

Flash the latest Magldr. And flash CWM. And then your desired rom. If u want to ask something or steps or if there is something you dont understand. Feel free to pm me
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] LGHT:
Thanks for the tips. adil1508 great suggestion to simply wipe everything and start fresh. Seems like the phone hasn't been used in at least a year, but hey for $50 I can't complain.

What do I need so I can connect the phone to the PC? I have xp and it installed a bunch of drivers, but it still gives me one last prompt for a driver and says can't find driver so I can't see the sd card on my pc.

Also is a 2gb micro sd card big enough or should I plan ahead and pick up a bigger card? What's the biggest card I can use?

mengfei: I looked over your guide quickly and noticed some instructions to upgrading my radio. How do I find out what radio i'm using now?? I would really like to upgrade my radio and loved that post about not bricking so thanks again.

I'm currently Son unlocked and I want to do juopunutbear. it says in the directions that I need to be on stock, and I'm not, so do any of you guys have a backup of stock. Also is there any more final tips you guys can give me about the scary WIRE TRICK. Also how high is the risk for this.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bevanweiss:
In the development section of the forum there is a bunch of links to the various stock files. You would need to pick the latest, then rename it as indicated in the thread and put it on your SD card. Then just reboot into the bootloader and it will do the reset. You should ofcourse do a backup of your existing ROM prior, and also a Titanium Backup (or similar) backup of your apps and data.

The bad reports I've seen from this method are people that have touched the uninsulated wire, so be careful of this.

Good luck

Aio toolbox works the best. Anyway, don't go for passion, its an old and obsolete rom. Try iczen on the rootzwiki forum, ICS chimera, doc masters, remics, cm9, slim ics, or a jellybean ROM. If you wanna go jellybean, you need to go flash an ICS then the jb ROM or you will be bricked. For jellybean though, try the hellybean or slim bean ROMs.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lustergfx:
Your right about passion, I personally like Schimera it's really nice and customizable. Although jellybean is the one that gave me a some-what soft brick. I made a post about it called SD card, yeah that was thanks to the jellybean rom I used. So until an actual stable jelly bean rom comes out I'm gonna try that. Also the passion one was running quite well except the GPS terribly sucked.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iKoolkid:
The jellybean ROMs are completely stable now. They only soft brick if you didn't wipe data or flashed it from stock.

I always wipe data/cache/delvik everytime I flash a new rom. Plus I was on ICS schimera v2.2 when I upgraded.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Sorry in advance but *sigh*. This is the 4th one in a week. The TMo 4g (SGH-T959V) is NOT the same as the Vibrant (SGH-T959) . You need to flash the correct pit and PDA files for your device. They Alsop have their own threads and forums. Just search and you will find them.

I agree. If you ever want a clean install, formatting system is one of the puzzle pieces to do so. Wiping system and data and caches is not the same as formatting them.

Anyone can download the toolbox from my signature. I have it permanently hosted there.

Kool, I am out of thanks for the day but I'll hit you up tomorrow. Too lazy to get my phone out of the other room and use the app.

Most OPs should state this and my ICS install guide definitely states it. Btw those videos that show the ICS and JB installs are not all they are cracked up to be. There are edited and don't include "everything" to properly flash.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lustergfx:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Since it seems like there is something wrong downstream, I suggest you Odin to JFD (2.1) and let it boot up.

Use a file manager, not the settings>storage, and see if yuo can see your external

. If yes, then good.

Next go to a Froyo based ROM and do the same thing. If yes, then good.

Go to CM7.1 stable and here is where your /system will be converted from RFS to MTD (GB and above use this system). Let it boot up and check again using a file manager (not your External will be converted to EMMC at this point). If there, then proceed to an ICS build and recheck. If yes, then go to your JB ROM.

These are all incremental steps anyways to get to JB, so it isn't like you are doing anything extra. Plus it will clean your phone a bit and give you a step-by-step determination where something is going wrong. If you Odin back to Eclair and you still can't see your External, then it may be something hardware related like contact points or something like that.
