[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sentinel196:
Are you having trouble installing ClockWorkMod?

You click “BOOT AD SD” in MAGLDR and the screen flashes up with an error quickly and returns straight abck to MAGLDR main menu?

This guide is for you.

NOTE: I’m sure there are plenty of other methods which also work, but this method worked for me so I figured I’d see if I can help a few people out. Please don’t post if you are just going to have a whinge about your method being better than mine. I'm not interested in debates. I am however happy for people to post if they have a method that they have found successful. Once verified, I will update the OP.

Before we begin, I take no responsibility for any damage to your device or loss of important data.

Using this procedure will wipe your memory card so BACK UP your files first.

You will need:

•	A Windows PC running XP or greater.

•	A MicroSD reader (I have had issues with mounting my SD via the HD2 using MAGLDR, you might find it works fine for you, but I strongly recommend using an SD Card Reader.

•	A copy of SD Formatter (free).

NOTE: If you have been using APPS2SD+, you are going to lose all your apps performing this procedure. I strongly suggest using a program like Android Commander to pull the APK files off your phone. You can then copy them back and re-install everything once Clockwork is working. ☺

OK HERE WE GO….

PHONE SHOULD NOT BE CONNECTED TO PC VIA USB UNTIL STEP 9.

1.	Shut down your phone and take out the SD Card.

2.	Insert the SD Card in to your card reader and plug it in to your computer.

3.	Load “SD Formatter” and select your SD card from the “Device” drop down menu.

4.	Click on the “Option” button and choose “Full Erase” and set “Format Size Adjustment” to “ON”. This will ensure that any previous partitions will be removed correctly. Click OK.

Don’t be alarmed, we will create a new EXT partition later on for APPS2SD+ ☺

5.	Click “Format” and wait for your SD card to finish formatting. Time will vary depending on the size of your SD Card.

6.	Now your SD card is formatted, copy the Clockwork “initrd.gz” and “zImage” files to the root of your SD card.

7.	Copy the zip ROM of your choice to the SD card.

8.	Put the SD card back in your phone and boot into MAGLDR by holding down the power button while powering on.

9. Flash the Clockwork Partition system to your phone in the usual NAND manner. When the phone reboots, disconnect it from the PC (unplug the USB cable and hold down the power button to boot back in to MAGLDR main menu. For more information on flashing NAND ROM's, BROWSE THESE GUIDES

10.	Select “BOOT AD SD” from the menu. If you have followed this guide correctly, you should now be in ClockWork Recovery ☺

At this stage the process will vary depending on the style of ROM you wish to use. If you want to use a ROM which supports APPS2SD, you will need to create a new EXT partition on your SD card using the partitioning tool built in to ClockWork Recovery. If you do not wish to use APPS2SD, you can just go ahead and flash the ROM zip.

IF YOU WANT TO USE APPS2SD:

1.	Use the Partitioning tool built in to ClockWork Recovery to create the partitions for you. Instructions for this can be found HERE.

2.	Once partitioned, remove the SD card from your phone and insert it into your card reader. Copy back the “initrd.gz” and “zImage” files to the root of your SD card, along with the ZIP ROM you desire to use.

3.	Put the SD card back in your phone, reboot the phone and flash the zip ROM of your choice.

DONE!!

I hope this guide helps a few people who were completely stuck with ClockWork as I was.
