Unable to enter tri colour bootloader

I am helping out a friend who had the following problem:

The phone won't boot into the tri colour screen, it boots directly into mgldr 1.13.

- I tested and the volume down button and power button do work

- CWM doesn't boot.

Do I have any options in MAGLDR to perform a clean install?

It seems all methods require the tri colour screen I cannot seem to enter :confused:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Panda_Face:
Does flashing CWM via the "USB Flasher" option work?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Le Brun:
Flashing works, but booting AD recovery afterwards keeps getting stuck at the count down and Go Go Go..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Panda_Face:
That's happened to me before. I just rebooted and off it went, worked fine. If you continue to have issues create a new thread (assuming you've searched) and see what help you can gather.

-- EDIT --

I just remembered, I reformatted my SD card about the same time this issue happened to me. Try that maybe?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Le Brun:
Rebooting isn't really an option as booting android nand results in a bootloop.

But I will stop spamming this thread with my misery, thread:

I've been using a Kingston 16Gb class 4 and had no problems booting Android from nand and sd card (dual boot). Recently I bought a Kingston 32GB class 4 card to replace the 16GB.

Initially I copied the contents of the 16GB (fat32 - no ext3/swap) to my laptop and then copied it over to the 32GB card. Booting android from nand was without a problem but I had issues booting from sd.

When I enter magldr and try to choose the AD dir under services I get sent back to the main menu. Tried it a couple of times and still no luck. Did a full format using sd formater (32 gb) and just copied the android folder on it (Americandroid sd) and still had no luck.

Went to AD recovery and its able to detect my sd card. Tried doing a format/partition from there and magldr still fails to detect my sd card.

I'm about ready to flush the sd card down the toilet ... please help .. BTW everything still works fine when I use back the 16gb card :confused:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mskip:
Unfortunately there are ALOTT of dodgy cards out there so there may not be much you can do with it. You can try downloading SD Formatter 3 with Format type set to 'Full Overwrite' and Format size adjustment set to 'On'. If that doesnt fix it then the only thing you can do with it is to used it as a storage device for your pc or if you bought it from a shop then take it back and get it changed.

I bought a 32GB microsd card for my tablet from ebay and it doesnt work well at all. It Wouldn't hold data and the write speed was atrociously slow. Ended up buying a new one from amazon which works perfdectly.

Thanks for the explanation. I've resorted to swapping SD cards whenever I want to try out a new SD rom. Not the idea solution but at least I get to have the stuff I need in the 32GB sd card when I boot to my daily usage android (nand).

BTW I manage to get the 32GB sd to boot android from SD once or twice but as you said it's flaky. Just hope it holds data without much issues.

No Way

Shadiku,

I'd like to see the whole screen so we know exacty what's going on and what your running the speedtest on. Why did you just clip out that single bit of screen? I have 100Mbps WifI on Xfinity and can get those kind of numbers when my phone is connected via Wifi but not across a 3G or 4G network. It's not possible.

No boot source

I can't flash a new rom, which is making me sad, because when i try and get into AD Recovery it gives error "no boot source", dont really have any idea (even through scanning xda and google) how to fix this.

Would really appreciate any help anyone could give, ive tried reflashing magldr 1.13 task29 and hard resetting but to no avail.

HELLPPPPP

Been having probs recently, could use some help ...

I've been trying to repartition using the USB Flasher, but it freezes at "Flashing Partition 1". Also have this problem if trying to flash wp7, so magldr is completely unusable right now.

I am able to book android via clk though. One major bit of info is that the phone's got a couple of bad blocks, and I'm guessing magldr is trying to write to them (I thought magldr was supposed to skip over them?)

I have done a task 2a, task 29; but nothings worked.

Anything anyone can recommend?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gradyzero:
Help, bug found in 1.1.13 and I need some way to fix it.

Cotulla and anyone else,

I made the unfortunate mistake while using v 1.1.13 of going into services and choosing "boot menu" and then choosing the option to always boot into the loader. When I was ready to go back to normal, I went back and reset it back to Boot WMP. It still always boots the loader. I can not find a way to get it to return back to normal. Tried v 1.1.10 and it's not even an option but it still always boots into the loader. I don't know if anyone else has found and used this feature but it is quite handy when you're flashing lots of ROMs to preview them. One after another. But right now, my WMP is semi-unuseable unless I can figure out a way to work around this. I am currently on WMP Mango 7.5 but have to manually choose to load WMP every time I power up. Can anyone think of a work around? Any advice is greatly appreciated.:)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Rick_1995:
Go to the same settings but instead of pressing the "call" button when asked, press the "end call" / "Power" / "End" button

Just saw this on the samsung focus thread. Looks that cotulla has got the 2.00 version ready with him....
[HD2 Android NAND Development] sagarjawaress:
Oh God, it seems HD2 will soon loose its crown of WP7+Android:(. It means many WP7 devices will get magldr 2.0 including HD7:eek:? Just yesterday i bought new Tmous HD2 and sold the EU HD2! I asked several times to my friend who has HD7 getting magldr or not? So, this turnouts to be a very bad news to me:(.

MagLDR 2.0 for HD2

Hello! Does anyone know, is MAGLDRv.2 for HD2 in development at the moment, or it is postponed and Cotulla is working on samsung's port now?

Gents - if could trouble someone.....

Ive just got my hands on a HD2 (used to have one a couple of years ago) - so im a bit out on the whole hacking thing....

Ive been doing some reading up and im trying to get an android rom in the nand and i need to use magldr.....ive got 1.13 on there and got it to the magldr boot menu - gone to the option 5 usb flasher. Then i take it after that i run the daf program.....and thats as far as ive got.....i get the error

Error Description: Config load failed.

Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (725)

Which i can see has been posted earlier in this thread but thats the thing ive got magldr on there.....am i reading something wrong??
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
If you're on Vista you need to Run As Administrator when you run DAF.exe Had this a few times and often if you just click on OK/YES each time it happens it will still progress and flash recovery OK.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ComfySofa:
Nah - thats not it - still does the same thing...have i got to have the rom in the same area??

It says it cant find the readme.txt either....does it have to be in a specific folder with a specific name??
[HD2 Android NAND Development] slbenz:
Been a while since I had to do this when I had the same error. From the first post:

Installation:

You need radio which support 576 RAM.

Run ROMUpdateUtility.exe and install it.

So it is not the DAF file that you need to run but the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file. As the other poster said, if you are using Vista, right click and Run as Administrator. Hope this helps.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
Ah, you have been away for a while! All ROMs are now flashed through Clockwork Mod Recovery with flashable zips from your SD card. So after MAGLDR your next step is to choose the ROM you want to run and find what partition layout is recommended. Then download the recovery version you want to use (5.0.2.6 is good for me) and unzip the download. Open flash.cfg with Notepad and edit the partition layout, then save it. Then whilst connected by USB and in MAGLDR USB Flasher flash recovery using the DAF.exe in the recovery folder. After that reboot into the MAGLDR menu and select AD Recovery. Download the ROM you are wanting to flash and copy the zip (don't unzip it) to your SD card. Put the SD card back in your phone and in the recovery menu select Install zip from SD card. In next menu select Choose zip from sd card - find the ROM zip and OK it. It will now flash the ROM. After that select Reboot System and you'll have NAND Android (first boot can take up to 20 minutes depending on the ROM so bear with it, subsequent boots are then normal). Let us know if you need any more help.

Oh, and make sure you have flashed the latest 2.15.50.14 radio before you do anything.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ComfySofa:
Whoa - too much information at once.....so im ok up to now....(got the magldr on sitting at the menu...)

Not sure what you mean about the parition layout....i know how to use CWM (ive got a sensation at the moment) but not sure how to get it on there...Also "edit the partition layout"??? no idea how to do that....

Ive done the radio and ive done HSPL2....it did have the old kind of bootloader on there can i reflash a windows rom and still use the magldr to boot android from the memory card?? - if i can cant get this on (which id really like to do by the way)

thanks for information overload!!!

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:00 PM ----------

Oh - the DAF.exe bit is the problem im having at the moment - it gives the error that i said about...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
OK, so you've flashed the 2.15... radio. It is a good idea if you are switching to Android NAND for the first time to do a task29 to clear everything, and also to completely format your SD card as well. If you've done all of that we can move on.

Have you picked a ROM yet? Also, have you downloaded and installed the HD2 Toolkit as this can automate a lot of the process for you?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ComfySofa:
ok - ive got a rom (the Typhoon one) i saw the task 29 thing - ill go and do that now...ive just reflashed the energy rom and then put the magldr back on (but it cant boot the newly flashed energy rom now - is that normal??) doesnt matter anyway....memory card formatted...

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

task 29 done.....

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------

Looks like the task 29 wiped out the magldr again...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
You can't run WinMo from MAGLDR - the Boot WPH is for WP7. So once you do task29 and flash MAGLDR that's it until you task29 and flash a WinMo ROM again as normal.

And yes task29 knocks out everything except your radio, hspl and your initial boot screen.

OK so Typhoon ROM needs a 150/5 partition layout. So as I said before format your sd card, and then copy back anything you want on it (music, etc) and the ROM zip from the Typhoon thread.

Then I'd suggest installing the HD2 Toolkit if you haven't already done that.

Connect your phone and enter USB Flasher in the MAGLDR menu.

In the toolkit click on MAGLDR Repartition at the top, select 150 in the list and make the cache size 5 in the box below the list. Then click on Repartition. This will install Clockwork Recovery with the 5/150/5 partition layout.

Once that's done you can disconnect from your PC. Your phone should reboot back into the MAGLDR menu. Select option 8 - AD Recovery.

This will fire up recovery. Select Install zip from SD card>Choose zip from SD card. Choose your ROM zip and away you go.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ComfySofa:
i think im there - i found a tut in the typhoon area - ive got cwm on there but only an old version - do you have a link to a newer one? - oh - and thanks for staying with me - just about to reflash now...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
For newer recovery look in Arif-Ali's recovery thread (it's stickied) and you can download the latest as a flashable zip from there or from the nightlies link in his sig.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ComfySofa:
Sorry about absence - had to leave work.....well, i flashed but im no further, after i flashed (which went ok) i rebooted and i can go back into CWM but no further - if i reboot and just let it go it spits out a bit of command line and stops on line [260] -- suspend.

So - is magldr used??

Oh - i found the link and reflashed the CWM so im on the latest version....to summarize....cwm on, flashed rom, flashed Gps stuff and the cpu thing as well but no boot....just get the above...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
Did you definitely flash a magldr version of the ROM and not a cLK version? Also try a full wipe in recovery and this time flash nothing but the ROM and see if it boots, then flash each other zip in turn to figure out which one is causing your problem.

BTW, what CPU thing?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ComfySofa:
im there!...i downloaded a file called recovery 150m, reinstalled the magldr and then ran the DAF from in there....im not sure what i did next although i think it was something to do with recovering ad - but im there....many thanks for the help....

Im probably getting cocky now but can i run another android os from the memory card??
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ComfySofa:
Dunc??

Would it be worth updating the sticky? Trying to follow the rules i read up - went through the sticky - got started, got part of the way and the came unstuck. Luckily for anyone else reading this if you **** it up you can reflash with a Windows 6.5 rom ( i used the energy rom ) and youre back where your started.

For me i got it working by finding the latest posts of said versions - the dfe install that came down with the magldr was only part there which is the reason that didnt work + the clockwork mod later version worked better for me also.

Ill probably have more questions but initially - now that android is on the rom and i want to update the build (im using typhoon) is it a case of just going into CWM and flashing over the top - just like any other android phone??

Oh - and thanks for the help, thanks for sticking with me while i fumbled my way through it...!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Dunc001:
Depends on the changes in any newer version of the ROM. Devs generally post in the OP whether a full wipe is required before flashing the latest version. Usually if the base hasn't changed then it's generally OK to flash over the top and then just wipe cache and dalvik cache before booting. I however find it best practice to go through the full process before each new ROM (but that's because I have been switching between CM, MIUI and Sense) so use Titanium Backup to backup all user apps and some system data (Bluetooth Pairings, Alarms, etc), then do a full nandroid (backup) in recovery just in case. Then it's entirely preference from there - I go over the top each time and task29, install MAGLDR, recovery, into CWM>Mounts and storage and format everything but sdcard and then flash from scratch. I also usually delete a few folders from my sd card before a new ROM (.android secure, data, .thumbnails, LOST DIR, etc) just to clear out any traces of the old ROM. But I'm sure people will tell you none of this is necessary, and that all you need to do is wipe cache, wipe dalvik and flash over the top! Trial and error, see what works for you. If you're sticking with the same ROM and just updating that's probably OK. All I'd say is that I have virtually never in a year of NAND flashing often several times a week only had one or two occasions when I couldn't get stuff to boot. Maybe coincidence ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] link68759:
Ok, I have a bug to report. This has happened to me on BOTH of my HD2s, and I know my batteries are in good condition..

MAGLDR forces the HD2 to turn on when you plug it in.

WP7 needs a certain amount of battery to boot.

Battery does not charge during WP7 boot.

Thus, if the battery is low with a WP7 ROM, the phone will be stuck in an infinite loop and the battery will never charge. Battery dies before WP7 can load and MAGLDR forces the HD2 on again.

Please add the option to disable autoboot; I know this is on the todo list, however it's gone from an annoyance to a crippling defect for WP7 users. I don't think flasher mode charges the battery, and I physically cannot charge my battery unless I remove MAGLDR or put the battery in my other HD2 without MAGLDR.

its not a bug, it is a feature. you will have to find another way to charge battery enough to go through boot procedure

I've tried searching this forum & the web for help without any success. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

[HD2 Android NAND Development] link68759:
I'm aware it's programmed like that intentionally, but given the adverse affect it has for WP7 ROMs it is a design flaw that needs to be corrected. Not technically a bug, but no need to argue semantics.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dusko_m:
With MAGLDR you will not be able to charge phone while it is off. That's why cottula implemented power on feature. System boots up and from there, running system controls charging. You have to find another way to put some juice into that battery. Some say that you might be able to charge battery a bit in bootloader (HSPL). Try that or visit other threads in Q&A section to see how people resolved this
