How to install Android step by step on HTC HD2
This guide will explain how to install Clockwork Mod on your phone so you can flash CWM Roms, as well as performing other actions.
Clockwork Mod is the traditional way of flashing, updating, backing up and restoring Roms on Android Phones. Many chefs are now only providing Roms in this form so it is best to have it on your phone and know how to use it.
REQUIREMENTS BEFORE STARTING!! IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ THIS!!
1. YOU NEED HARDSPL 2.08 INSTALLED ON YOUR DEVICE TO FLASH MAGLDR2. YOU NEED A RADIO WHICH SUPPORTS 576 RAM (2.08.50 or later should be fine but the Radio NEEDS to be 2.**.50.**). I recommend the 2.15.50.14 Radio
3. YOU NEED MAGLDR V1.13 ON YOUR DEVICE TO INSTALL CLOCKWORK MODTHIS GUIDE ASSUMES YOU HAVE ALREADY FLASHED MAGLDR V1.13 ON YOUR PHONE. IF YOU HAVENT THEN PLEASE FOLLOW AND COMPLETE STEP 1 OF *THIS* GUIDE BEFORE CONTINUING WITH CWM.-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
1. FLASH CLOCKWORK MOD TO YOUR DEVICENOTE: There are 3 CWM images attached at the bottom of this thread. You only need to install 1 of the images depending on what type of Android Rom you want to flash. The larger the size of the CWM Partition the less space there will be left for programs installed to your phone.
150MB Partition - For lite Roms without Sense such as CM7. Gives most internal space on your phone for apps
250MB Partition - Standard size Roms or squashed Sense Roms
400MB Partition - Full Sense Roms. Hardly any internal space for apps. 512ROM Leos will need A2SD external partition set up
If you arent sure which size you need then check the first few posts of the Rom you want to flash as it will usually tell you which size partition it needs.
1.
Download the CWM Partition you require and extract it to a new folder on your pc
2. Connect your phone to your pc via the USB Cable
3. Restart your phone and HOLD DOWN the End Button (far right) until the Magldr Menu appears
4. Keep pressing the Volume Down button to goto Option 5. USB Flasher and press the Call Button (far left) to select it
*The screen should now say Wait USB...USB*
5. Run DAF.exe (Right Click and Run As Administrator if you have Vista or Windows 7) in the folder you extracted the image to and follow the intructions on your pc to start flashing
6. After flashing the phone will reboot. HOLD DOWN the End Button (far right) until the Magldr Menu appears
To start Clockwork Mod keep pressing the Volume Down button to goto Option 8. AD Recovery and press the Call Button (far left) to select it
NOTE: If the Rom demands a different size CWM then you can download any of the attached sizes, then extract the contents and edit the flash.cfg file with Notepad. Change the sizes on the following lines depending on what you need:
system ya ***M (partition size)
cache ya **M (cache size)
-------------------------------------------------------

2. PARTITION YOUR STORAGE CARD FOR A2SD ROMS (IF REQUIRED)NOTE1: Setting up a partition on your Storage Card will allow A2SD compatable Roms to automatically install apps to this partition rather than using your phones internal memory. This is useful for people that have alot of apps to install and for people who want to flash a Sense Rom and wont have much internal memory left.
NOTE2: Once you create an A2SD partition on your Storage Card all information will be lost so make sure to backup everything to your pc so it can be copied back after. The accessible space on your Storage Card will be made smaller by the amount of the partition you set up so only make it as big as you need make it huge if you dont have many apps to install)
1. Boot into the Clockwork Mod menu
2. Go down to Advanced and select (by pressing Call Button)
3. Select Partition SD Card
4. Select Size of required partition not sure then 1024M is a good size)
5. Make ABSOLUTELY sure you want to continue and then select 0M Swap Size
Your Storage Card will now be partitioned with the size you selected.
ALL DATA ON YOUR STORAGE CARD WILL BE LOST!!
