While i noticed most videos of people installing android on their hd2, (after flashing the correct radios and rom), the texts on linux screen moved fast while mine takes about 30 sec or more to proceed to the next line. (veryyy slowww)
For example:
........................mv=4026
(30 seconds later)
........................mv=4021
I've flashed radio 2.07 and energy rom( latest). After copied the hyperdroid files into a folder "Hyperdroid" in my storage, i closed everything and disconnect my USB and now in a progress of installing Hyperdroid. Isit normal?
Im just worry that it would takes forever untill my battery is running out.
I couldn't find threads with similiar problem(?)..

What it's doing is creating the data.img file. If it hasn't finished in 20 min or less, check that you didn't run out of SD card space.
Thank you for your reply
Ive already reformated my SD before putting the android files into it. My SD is 8gb storage.
While copying the files into SD, i was trying out with camera and did take a picture. (the usb is still connected). When it's done, i disconnect it, opened with file manager--> Storage , and i noticed there is DCIM and my document , i deleted it manually (long touch and select delete). I then opened the android folder, *touched* CLRCAD and then haret..
Is it something to do with the time when i take picture causing problems like that?
It's already 1 hour plus..
{edit} its now at mv=3882.. @4.06am
{edit} its now at mv=3853.. @4.18am
{edit} its now at mv=3826 @4.27am
what is the supposed final value?
How do i check whether my storage is full just in case

Those mv numbers you see are the battery's voltage. The battery is just being used. Did you try a different build?

Hey Man, did you rename the HYPERDROID folder extracted from download to ANDROID or something else. You need to keep it named HYPERDROID.
try that or another build

HELP!
I have just installed the above on my XDAii.
Nearly everything works fine BUT I cannot get it to work on a seven digit uk postcode!
I have had a look at various threads on the forums and have tried putting the Greta_britian.postal file into the ZIP folder on my SD card and creating a folder named TOMTOM on the root of my SD card but it still does not give me a chance to enter a full seven digit postcode only the first three digits i.e. NG2.
Any ideas please
I have the same trouble!!! Whats with that?
Put the zip folder in program files/navigator and they will work. Took me a little messing to work it out, but also you may find that tomtom6 is a little heavy for the xda2 and will keep freezing requiring hard reset every time. Go to version 5.21

Hi there! YOu got this one sorted or still having probs? RSVP Steve
if you have bluetooth folders enabled, tomtom can't see the "ZIP" postcode folder on the storage card or the VOICES folder on the storage card. You can either copy the "ZIP" folder into the Navigator folder in main memory or you can disable Bluetooth Folders (start, settings connections, bluetooth, ftp)

My mate got it working on mine. It had something to putting blank directory on the storage card called tom tom, just something as simple as that.
Try googling it as Im sure it will appear in another forum somewhere
Ok so first is first.. I did read the wiki and I have searched.. even posted in a rom 3.42.50 post (i think that was it) but no replies...
so in that other post I followed the instructions.... I used a 512mb micro sd and a 64mb micro sd....
jambrose said:
FROM THE TITAN WIKI:
Flashing a phone with a micro SD card
1. With a card reader on your PC, format a non-SDHC (<=2GB) microSD card into FAT32 (tested to work up to a 4KB cluster size)
(the default size for a 1 GB would not work, also if it takes only a few seconds to format
try formating with some other slot/device. A 1 GB took over a minute to format correctly)
To format your Card - Open a DOS box and type/copy and paste this: ( format ?: /FS:FAT32 /A:1024 )
Replace the ? with whatever your SD cards drive letter is... ie: f, h, I.... Mine is G....
2. Copy the ROM to flash (xxxxxxxx.nbh) to the root of the microSD
3. Rename the ROM xxxxxxx.nbh to TITAIMG.nbh
4. Insert your card.
5. Force into the boot loader with POWER-CAMERA-RESET
6. Follow the instructions and you'll quickly flash your Titan...
7. You may have to soft reset once it says the update is complete
(If you are using UC let the customizations run so it will read the SDConfig.txt file)
This will work to flash with an official ROM and radio, I think regardless of the boot loader you have installed. But ensure that you have the correct boot loader (olipro 2.40 for this GPS ROMs) installed for when you do eventually finish with your flashing and are ready to boot into the OS.

so i have been trying this for a while tonight.. cant get it to work...
I am getting the Loading... screen.. all grey but that is it...
512mb micro sd... TITAIMG.NBH file exists...
any ideas??
I did not install olipro 2.40... should I??
alot of views but that is it..... hmm...
ok I installed nueSPL-2.47
so now it says.,.
TITA100
SPL-2.47No2Chem Titan SPL EVT CPLD-9
still cant get it...
now trying to boot to upgrade the rom I get the reg, green, blue, white part of the screen... and it says serial....
can anyone help me???
it sounds to me like you have nueSPL installed correctly.
In the past I have had problems with formatting sd cards, the only reliable way I have found to format them so that they work for flashing roms is to use the nue format utility... it is up somewhere on nuerom.com
It will erase everything on your card, so back it up first
after the card has been formatted, copy the "TITAIMG.nbh" file to the root of the card
Put the card in your phone and reboot into bootloader mode
it should detect that there is a rom image on the card and ask you to press the power button to continue.
The flashing process takes about 1 minute to complete (so much faster than using activesync)
Once everything is done it will say something like "process complete", and then you soft reset and you are done

2.a. Speedometer for my pickup truck... gpsspeedometer.exe
2.b. iGuidance
3. few games
4. Sirius radio via wifi
I do not have a data plan.... was going to get one soon but just bought a 2008 silverado z-71 crew cab.. so car payment is a bit much... so dont want to fork out the extra on a data plan.....
I have to check again but I think this is the one im going for...
Titan M2D Round 4 ROM (DCD 3.2.6 and TouchFlo 2D)
my biggy was getting the radio upgraded more importantly for better GPS... however I have got it to sync yet.... well im inside the house and cant get it to sync... raining outside too....

I am glad that you were able to get it working. I enjoy flashing different roms, but am not really a nit-picky user.
I fonally donated to no2chem today so that I can use his nueRom3-pre3, it is a pretty nice rom that gives you the option to disable your camera and get an extra 8 MB in free ram, I am also really liking the nueWifiSwitch. But like I said you have to donate to get the rom, and I have only been using it for 6 hours or so.
before that I was pretty much exclusively on a custom build of DCD 3.2.6, just a bare minimum rom, which I like because I flash quite often.
It does seem like people are liking the "Titan M2D Round 4 ROM" a lot. It looks pretty good, in fact it even includes a program that I made, Manilla 2D Customizer, which will let you tweak Manila 2D and apply some themes.
Good luck, and I hope flashing your rom via SD card goes a little bit smoother than your radio flash
just curious. with the sd card haret method, i got myns warm donut working on mine so far (just cant figure out all of the button mapping).
i have ryans low mem 23518 6.5 installed in the background, but wouldn't it be so nice to NAND android? i think the only thing stopping it is a working NBH file.
Asking the same question.
Care to post a step-by-step for how you got the vogue's donut to work? Would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

-i downloaded the sqsh file folder
-formatted my sd card in my computer with a program called SDformatter 2.0
-i went here http://magister.ipsys.net/?page_id=69&lang=en
i downloaded the file from here and donwloaded the file at the bottom of the page. i ONLY used the default.txt file
-extract myns sqsh folder, and it should give you an android folder with a bunch of stuff on it
-put the android folder on your sd card
-put the default mogul txt file into the android folder and overwrite the existing one in there
-run haret and wait like 5 mins
the android sign while loading is cut across the screen weird, and i cant figure out all of the buttons yet
hey, thanks for the info staticchmbr, but im having a slight problem, when i get into the install screen it asks if you want to install when you press the center button but i cant figure out for the life of me how to get the answer over to no.. its making me feel stupid >.<
EDIT: nevermind, i got it like 20 seconds after i posted this...
yea, just make sure that you download the classic sqsh folder, not the norootfs ones. this has worked with multiple android builds.
im having troubles with the market though,. i can go in and start downloading, but the progress bar doesnt move.
ALSO, on myns, once the screen locks, i cant unlock it. i guess the buttons are mapped differently on that. i have used some kaiser/vogue builds as well
im honestly suprised no one has gone through and mapped the keys for the titan, i dont know if its that simple (i honestly doubt it is) to make it fully compatable with the titan, or im my case, mogul (PPC6800, same exact phone as the titan)
does anyone know if this build will enable wifi or bluetooth for the sprint mogul? Thanks.

Edit:
i switched to the chuckyrom, didtn know which version.... but it also didnt work
can u just send me an rom and an android-build, which just work
download one of the Andriod versions of Mdeejay. He has truely good working ROMS. EVO, Revolution, Desire and Desire HD (even with 720p camera fixed)
I just think you data.img is corrupted .. you can try to replace it .. i rather would go for another Adriod version. Trouble shooting for Andriod SD ports is a waste of time if you dont know were to search
i download always a new data.img when i change android
so i rather think, this isnt the problem
but the mdeejay builds.... i try it
EDIT:
im doin it right, or?
the data.img in the android folder and the rootfs from the android folder intro the root of the sdcard
EDIT2:
it also stucks at the bootscreen.... this time it is white and green
any1 know, which issue keeps me away from the lovely android @ hd2?
It also happens to me when i download android and exracted to my sd card it stuck or frozen in the htc logo for like an 1hr
I would delete the data.img and let Android build a new one. It should do it on its own the 1st time you boot it up, it will make your 1st boot take quite awhile, probly like 10 minutes, but it should boot up that way as long as you haven't changed or modified anything else within your /Android folder. It may just be because of the data.img that you included in the folder why it won't boot up for you
ok, i let android "build" a data.img by it self, but it also hangs at the bootlogo
and i didn't changed anything in the android folder, cuz i dont know what
i changend in the meanwhile the hspl from 2 to 3 back to 2
i changed several roms...... several android builds but nothing works :'(
dont some1 know what my problem is?
i always use task29 b4 i flash a ne rom and radio

-try other SD card or
-to format current SD card
tried another sd card and also yet on another handy with an 2gb card - not sdhc
and it dont work ether
when i download a new android build, the only thing i have to do is to put the rootfs.img out of the android folder into the root if the sdcard. something else?

Okay, It's the same as the one I have tested in the past.
Steps to do:
1) Download v. 4.3
Download 1GB data.img
2) Prepared your SD:
- Format your SD (select FAT32)
3) Create a folder on your SD named: "Android"
4) Open the "MDJ_FroYo_HD_v._4.3_MDJ_S7.5HD.zip" archive with winzip/7zip Set the 10 files folders in your Android folder on your SD
Code:
- AndroidApps (folder)
- media (folder)
- zImage
- initrd.gz
- rootfs.img
- startup.txt
- system.ext2
- CLRCAD.exe
- haret.exe
- ts-calibration
5) Open the "data.zip" archive with winzip/7zip Set the data.img file in your Android folder on your SD
(You don't need to have a other file/folder on your SD except the one I mentioned.)
6) insert your SD into your device
7) Navigate with your device to your SD/Android folder; press on CLRCAD.exe and than on haret.exe
The first boot up can take some time (about 15min) but after that it must works well.
green logo ey?
When i was installing android on mine HD2 all i needed was to UPDATE MY RADIO to 2.15 ! and it passed the green logo just fine! I really doubt it has anything to do with sd card...
ok i followed the steps indicatet above AND flashed Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14
hope it works...
i tell ya
btw: is it normal, that there will be the logo for about 15 min?
in older versions, there was a linux-dos-lookalike screen where u know that the handy was doin something
where did he go??
edit after 20 min:
still hangin on the green/white htc logo
i did ALL files into the Android folder, no files nowhere else
dont know whats wrong
EDIT next day 11:50AM:
thank you kurt-willems
but also your tutorial wont help me :'(
i absolutely dont know what the **** is wrong.....

Fore the moment out of Ideas.
- Radio is correct
- Rom; I don't see the problem
- Steps are follow like I mentioned
Maybe SD, (but you tested also on a otter SD. No?)
This worked for me.
I had the same issue for about a day, and after research of stuck on green HTC Logo with no help, and thousands of post later I came acroos an article regarding EncFiltLog.menc. Do not format your SD card with MAC or windows PC, but rather the secret is to format your SD card with your winmo phone by going to "settings" | "format SD card". It will create an exec file "EncFiltLog.menc" This file is, I guess, a partition index??? The file "EncFiltLog.menc" is hidden in windows mobile 6.x but is visible when you mount your SD card to your PC. Do not delete this file!!!!
After that just drop your android folder and it will boot up in less than 3 mins. After that, u may add all your other files. I use a 16GB card with Android and all my music and stuff with no problems. Hope this helps you.
Seriously man, you're a life saver. This has been kicking my butt for two days now.

I'm having quite a hard time finding the correct instructions. I'm trying to run Android on Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2. I did manage to run Android 2.2 from SD card, but it was very slow and sluggish.

Any suggestions or help out there?

Gingerbread was the last version created for the TP2.
The experience of the SD card version relys heavly upon the sd card you run it from.
Read this thread for more SD card/OS requirements info.
Here are the basic instruction for loading a NAND version of android.
I run GB0X for my daily, and while it is not perfect I am over all happy with it.

Problem is, I'm not familiar with many of the quoted texts, which only adds to my confusion. The second link you provided is totally Chinese to me. The last link I'm not exactly sure if that is the Gingerbread you mentioned. And it also seems that it involves flashing the phone, which I didn't really want to do. I want to dual boot from SD card, so I can revert to Windows Mobile if something goes wrong...

First, if FroYo is slow what makes you think ICS will be fast? lol.
See this thread for a newer version of XDAndroid, based on Gingerbread.
That's the newest and probably the most stable version you can run from the SD card. As was stated, performance is heavily dependent on the SD card itself - and higher class != higher performance here. Operating Systems need high random read/write performance, which is not what classed cards are measuring for speed...
Regardless, NAND runs a bit better IMHO. If you still want WinMo, you'll have to deal with the slowness of running it off the SD card - although to be honest there's not a huge bottleneck by running it on the card.

As I'm still new to Android, you can't expect too much from me... I just assumed that if FroYo is sluggish, a newer version could probably be faster. But hey, maybe I'm wrong. I guess it indeed also depends on RAM, ROM, and who knows what else.
Anyway, I downloaded your latest link, copied the unzipped files to the root of my SD card (unfortunately I wasn't aware of the fact that higher classes will perform better, so I got a class 2 card last week). As per the instructions, I copied all .csv files from the \Windows directory to the same root of the SD card. I also copied the RHOD400 startup .txt file (which as I assume is the one for my HTC Touch Pro 2). When I then try to run the HARET.exe, the phone crashes and simply reboots back in WinMo...
Am I missing something?
Thanks!

As I'm still new to Android, you can't expect too much from me... I just assumed that if FroYo is sluggish, a newer version could probably be faster. But hey, maybe I'm wrong. I guess it indeed also depends on RAM, ROM, and who knows what else.
Anyway, I downloaded your latest link, copied the unzipped files to the root of my SD card (unfortunately I wasn't aware of the fact that higher classes will perform better, so I got a class 2 card last week)

the recommended cards are the lower class Sandisk ones class 2 should be good. Higher Class cards are not good for running an OS from. it is also recomended that you format the SD with the "HP Tool" http://www.eocfiles.com/bdc86eb1ed2989c30dcd1902e84939ae/bootdisks/SP27608.exe before you put GBX0C on it. I also have a sprint TP2 and have had problems with 16GB SD cards had to use an 8GB.

As per the instructions, I copied all .csv files from the \Windows directory to the same root of the SD card. I also copied the RHOD400 startup .txt file (which as I assume is the one for my HTC Touch Pro 2). When I then try to run the HARET.exe, the phone crashes and simply reboots back in WinMo...
Am I missing something?

This is exactly what worked for me. have you set win mo to airplane mode before starting HARET? it is recomended round here but did not produce a reboot when I did not do it.

First, re-read my post - I said higher class != better performance - as in does NOT equal.
Also, as was previously stated - it sounds like you did everything correctly. Do you have a funky WinMo ROM? I know some ROM's 'fake' what type of device it is, and this doesn't play with HaRET well - because HaRET actually believes what WinMo is telling it... I can't remember the ROM's off hand that do this, but the jist is they try to fake as if the device is the Leo aka HD2... which it obviously is not...
The only other thing I can think of is did you reuse anything? Literally anything, from FroYo? Data.img, anything? Please don't reuse a single file. Start fresh with GBX0C, including a new startup.txt.
Thanks all! So I formatted my SD card again with the HP tool, copied back all files from the zipped folder, copied over the csv files from \Windows and tried to run HaRET again. Sadly, same story. First the progress bar comes up with "Loading Linux", but around halfway it crashes, and the phone boots up in WinMo again.
The ROM itself is stock from Sprint, I didn't change anything on that. And with FroYo I used HARET as well, and there it worked fine. Except no ringtones (!!!) and no bluetooth (!!!). The other difference is that with FroYo I did not get instructions to copy over csv files. Could that be the cause?
I definitely didn't copy over any FroYo files to this one...
Thanks!

FroYo doesn't require the CSV's.
You're not reusing any files? Nothing is being reused at all?
You have a RHOD400?
Have you tried different SD cards?
It's a brand new Sandisk 8 gb class 2 micro sd, never used before. Downloaded the original files from the provided link. I think maybe to use the provided csv files instead of my own...

Try another card perhaps.
Do you have a RHOD400?

Do you have WinMo overclocked with WiMoSpeed or something of the like? Haret will crash if you are using something other than the 528MHz stock speed.

I managed to find a friend, borrowed his 8 GB Class 4 card, formatted with HP tool, copied all files, including csv. Same crash with his card...
I have a Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2. According to my research, and to the sticker in back of battery, it should be the RHOD400.

No, except for apps I didn't do anything like overclocking or similar...

Not on the battery, under the battery on the phone itself, yes? Then yes, you have a RHOD400. Especially if it's 'Sprint' branded...
Ok, do this. First, run HaRET.exe with NO startup.txt. You can copy HaRET.exe to another location (root of SD, etc) - or rename your startup.txt to startup.bak or something. Then run HaRET.exe and tell us what you see in the box.
Next, perhaps try EVERYTHING from GBX0C except for the startup.txt. Still fails? Try the HaRET.exe and startup.txt from FRX07. Let us know.
So here's my latest update:
I tried removing the startup.txt file, crashed. Tried to run the HaRET.exe file on its own, crashed. Tried to use the startup.txt from FRX06 (which is different from the GBX0C one, I checked). Crashed.
Finally tried to use the HaRET.exe from FRX06, and now it works! Runs Android 2.3.7!
I guess for now the issue is solved. Will have to continue testing. BT and ringtones didn't work with FRX06. Should it work now?
By the way, here's a screenshot of what happened when I didn't have the startup.txt.

When mixing and matching files there is no way to know what will work. You will just have to post your results.

Thanks. Just checked bluetooth. Sadly, it doesn't work. Takes about 10-15 seconds when I check the turn on box, but then it remains off... Wondering if there's a fix for that. Ringtones are fortunately working.
But I have another issue so far. While outgoing SMS messages seem to work fine, I don't get the incoming messages. Any ideas?

I KNEW IT!!!
Machine Type Leo - Exactly what I said earlier. Your WinMo ROM is trying to fake like you have an HD2 not a TP2... That's the whole reason HaRET.exe doesn't work. Your ROM is lying.

Text messaging should work fine. With you mixing and matching so much, and having god knows what for a WinMo ROM... who knows what's wrong. Did you boot Android with WinMo in airplane mode?
