Q; How to install cooked Rom (using Task 29)

My Install Strategy;

· Run Microsoft My Phone Sync

· Turn off antivirus software in Desktop PC (Stop Avast Anti-Virus)

· Remove SIM and microSDHC Storage Card

· RUN XDA Developers “HD2 Task 29” as an Administrator

Task 29 is not mandatory that's true, but it's a safe way to ensure that you don't have any old files remaining after flashing a new rom.

There is no harm in doing it and the easy way is to use the tool I provided in this post:

Connect your device and flash as you do with an ordinary rom, when completed (100%) press volume down and keep I pressed until the device has restarted showing the coloured boot screen, then you flash the Rom.

​

· Install your cooked Rom as an Administrator

NOTE 6: Please, Hard-Reset after flash process has completed.​

· Add SIM and microSDHC Storage Card

· Set Time and DATE

NOTE 7: Please, Restart the phone, after first manila screen.​

· Run Desktop pc FULL ActiveSync, select setup device.

​

Q;What is Bootloader?

Bootloader mode is handy for checking the HD2's version of Hard SPL as well as the installed ROM and Radio versions,and also for ROM or Radio flashing to the HD2. I sometimes use the Bootloader method to flash ROMs as it saves connecting to Activesync/WMDC because the PC recognises the HD2 as connected via USB. It is also useful for flashing a ROM or Radio version if the battery charge is less than 50%, as it ignores the 50% charge warning that is normally displayed when flashing if the HD2 is low on charge. Never use this method if you have less than a 30% charge as you will be in deep trouble if the HD2 runs out of power while flashing a ROM or Radio version!
​

Q;How to access to Bootloader?

To place the HD2 into Bootloader mode, remove the HD2's back cover hold down the volume down key, now press in the red reset button under the back cover to the bottom left of the SIM, release the soft reset button but continue to hold the volume down key in until you are presented with the tri colour bootloader screen. To exit Soft Reset the device.
