Card Trouble

I am having some trouble with my 4gb card in my XV6800. I have had it since January and been happily adding things to it and deleting them at will. Now I am having a problem with it however. I can add things to it through My Computer etc on windows and it shows up fine. But after a few hours when I go back into it on File Explorer on the phone any changes I have made are not in effect.
This includes both things that I added that are not there, and things that I have deleted that re-appear. Any ideas? It is not helping my wanting to flash new ROMS any as you can imagine.
I know that they are transferring at some point because I m,anaged to install a cab from there last night, this morning, the original cab and folder is gone.
This thread should have been created in the Titan thread, not Titan Upgrading.
Also, you cannot use a 4gb card to flash anything. It's posted all over the place here.
Apologies, I will repost it there.
Ok, that makes sense as to why I wouldn't be able to flash I guess but still not about the cabs and files disappearing. Hopefully someone over there will know.
Thanks for helping me with the first part - I will pop out and get a smaller card (1gb)

Is anyone making an android .NBH file for use with NAND on the titan?

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.
basically, from myns warm donut topic

-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.

Trouble Installing Froyo (rootfs)

Hey guys,
I'm new here and need some help.
I've spent the past couple nights burning the midnight oil, reading through pages of the forum for something that will explain how to fix my problem.
I recently bought the HTC HD2, ditching my unlocked 2G iphone. So far, I'm not thrilled with Windows Mobile 6.5.
I really want to try Android on it. My wife has a myTouch, and I really like the interface. I did some reading around, and felt brave enough to tackle it.
Here's my issue:
I downloaded "HD2Froyo_V2.1", and extracted the contents to the desktop of my PC.
As explained in many places, I placed the Android folder that the zip file created onto the root of my SD card on the HD2. I first run CLRCAD, and then haret.
No matter how many times I run the haret.exe on the phone, I consistently get an error that says it can't locate the "rootfs".
I've tried deleting the Android folder and just placing all the files directly on the root drive, but it still fails to find rootfs.
The only hack I've done so far was to install HardSPL.
Other than that, I've not done anything else.
Any ideas what's preventing Android from installing?
Okay, I figured it out.
Android is up and running just fine.
I am, however, getting the robot voice.
Could someone recommend a solution? I'm assuming I need to try a custom ROM or radio, but I'm not sure which.
Thanks!
It's the radio. I'd recommend the latest one, 2.15. You already HSPL'd it so you're half way there.

HTC HD2 Android - Stuck at green HTC-Logo

First: i used the search function and didnt get an answer
im also having this problem around 2 weeks...
im using this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=692763
Omega v3.4
with the Radio-Rom
Radio 2.10.50.28_2
and as you may think, my handy stucks after the executes linux code on the green HTC Logo. No one could help me, so im asking for the pro's in this forum for some answers.

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

My suggestion Sir is to
-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?

let's start from the beginning. witch android built will you use/install?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859817

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.

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...

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.

[Q] SG3 Assistance

Well I have come to this. I have been enjoying this thread for some time, and wow, great people all around. I have a Sprint unrooted 16GB SG3. Ever since I discovered the art of modifying my phone it has been non-stop. First problem is that my SG3 is not processing files I download to my phone. I do it all directly on the phone using mostly androzip. No I do not download to my PC and then transfer. That is the next problem. My phones memory is down to 3.5 GB and my SD card is mostly empty. Tried to connect phone to PC and try to transfer files to SD card but for some reason after I installed the necessary programs it does not work. All download through play store and APK's are working fine. I can see the files I download on my phone storage>downloads but when I ask to open it, androzip will open but not process file. I am missing out on so many beautiful UCCW skins, icons and others that I am planning to reset my phone to factory setting if I don't learn how to transfer all this to my SD card.
Thanks in advance to anybody that is willing to help or point me in the right direction.
