How to Install ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3 on HTC HD2? (Video)

ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM) for HTC HD2 is a must installed tool as most of the NAND Android ROMs are in CWM zip format. You need to use ClockworkMod Recovery to install these zip ROMs from SD card. Besides, ClockworkMod Recovery can make full system backup and restore using Nandroid. ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3 will be installed into NAND memory, therefore MAGLDR v1.13 is needed. Please follow step by step video guide to install it.

There are 3 partition layout sizes for ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3 ~ 150MB, 250MB and 400MB. Which partition layout size of ClockworkMod Recovery should I use? Depending on what type of ROM that you plan to use, you should choose the partition size based on the following.

  • 150MB Partition – For bare ROM including CyanogenMod, AOSP, and MIUI
  • 250MB Partition – For Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, Standard Sense ROM including Desire and EVO based ROM, can also be used for some squashed HD builds
  • 400MB Partition – For Larger ROM including unsquashed Desire HD and Z ROM

Can’t find the partition size you require? Follow this guide to create your own custom one – How to create custom ClockworkMod Recovery partition size for HTC HD2?

                  • Jayce,

                    Drew may have found an easy solution to his problem (Probably caused by admin issues on his pc), but I am facing a similar issue with full admin privileges on a 32-bit Win7 OS. I am trying to flash my T-Mobile HD2 (1024mb internal memory) the same ClockworkMod Recovery [i.e., DAF.exe] from XDA-Developers. I receive the following message immediately after installing cLK (using both HD2 Toolkit v.4.2.0.1 & multiple versions available online):

                    An error has occurred
                    Read below for more information

                    Error Description: USB init failed
                    Info: .RSPLRSPL.cpp (736)

                    I know it isn’t my pc, I’ve tried multiple copies of cLK, I have MAGLDR 1.13. I have the latest SPL (2.08) by Cotulla. I’m at the end of my rope. I need this phone to work, but I’m thinking about biting the bullet and buying an Iphone (even though I don’t want to). If you have any insight, please let me know. Thanks!

                    • Yes, I saw the “Wait USB…” but the screen on my HD2 never shows any activity past that and the Clk program on my pc just gives me that error. I tried wiping (Task 29) the hd2 and trying again from scratch but always get the same error.

  7. Hi Jayce,

    Can you tell me which partition size I need to install HD 2 for this TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 v3.6.8 [Kernel: Tytung r12.4] NAND A2SD+ Zip ROM ?

    Many thanks

  8. Hi Jayce. First of all i wanna thank you for your step by step guide. I sucessufully flashed hspl, radio, perform task 29, MAGLDR, but now my hd2 is stuck on MAGLDR menu. I was trying to install CWR Recovery 150M system 5M cache but something goes wrong (i download it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933951). I can’t complete the installation process. It says:

    An error has occurred
    Read below for more information

    Error Description: send partition data failed
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (815)

    Error Description: flash write failed.
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (599)

    Maybe that’s why i tryed to open flash.cfg with notepad before flashing DAF.exe and this file, even if i just opened it without modifying it, has lost its exention. I’ve tryed to download the same file many times but it always appears without .cfg extension. How can i fix this problem? My device is still connected in USB flasher mode…
    What i have to do now? How can i get back to MAGLDR? Can i repeat the CWR installation process without any problem?
    Oh, i forgot to tell i’ve insert a new sd card before beginning any installation process and my device recognised it….
    Please, HELP!! I don’t wanna brick my hd2

    it seems to be that once you open flash.cfg with notepad there’s no way to have this file as it was before doing anything. My pc always recognise it as a notepad readable file…

    • EDIT: I removed the battery from the back and put it in again. Than i press the end call button to start MAGLDR. I tryed to flash that CWM recovery (150M system/5M cache) again, but i got the same issue. I used 7zip instead of winRAR to unzip this time on another computer, but is always the same. There’s a particular way to unzip a file??:s Btw, can i try to flash CMW recovery 150M system/44M cache (that you post in your guide) to see if the problem persist? Or this kind of cache partition isn’t compatible with typhoon CM7? Really thanks for ur help…

        • Hi Jayce. Thank you for your help. I finally install CWM recovery 1.3 150M (the one you have posted) and after rebooting system i copied the ROM zip file on my sdcard. I follow your video guide and the ROM has been installed successfully (install from sdcard complete). Then, i reboot system as you do. But after rebooting nothing happens. My device is stuck on MAGLDR menu at GO GO GO! for about 30 minutes. I think i’ve to pull out my battery again…
          Btw, the little “monster” still doesn’t appear. Are you sure there’s no problem to use a bigger cache than the small one that typhoon cyanogenmod 7 ROM require? What to do now?
          P.s I haven’t do any wipe before installing the rom ’cause this is my first one…
          Any help/idea?

            • Hi Jayce. I still need your help… I didn’t have time to try again. But the real problem is I’ve no idea how to flash another recovery, then another ROM (the same in my case but with the proper recovery).

              Which steps do I have to take?
              Do I have to perform task29, then reflash MAGLDR and so on or there’s another way to change the recovery and the ROM I installed? (e.g via MAGLDR menu)

              It would be greatly appreciated if you could help me…

                • Thank you sooooo much. Ok, correct me if i’m wrong. Just get the proper recovery and flash it without doing anything before (i presume this will replace the recovery i installed). After that, do a wipe (wipe data/factory reset) before flashing the ROM…:) I’ll try and let you know
                  p.s sorry for the noob questions…

                  • Hi Jayce. I tried again. I tried to flash the proper recovery but I get the same error (it happens if I extract from the RAR archive the files with 7zip):
                    An error has occurred
                    Read below for more information

                    Error Description: send partition data failed
                    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (815)

                    Error Description: flash write failed.
                    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (599)

                    On the other hand, if i run DAF.exe directly from the archive by double clicking i get the “USB init failed” error.

                    Why it happens? I also tried to uncheck “allow USB connection” but nothing changes…
                    any idea?

                    • I got it!! I downloaded CWM Recovery 150 M from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044830 and I successfully installed it (even if not without problem). So I also reformatted my sdcard, recreated an EXT3 partitionand then copied the ROM.zip file with CWM Recovery (v. 3.0.2.5) mounts and storage –> format sd-ext, then, after the process is completed, go back to mounts and storage–> mount USB storage , connect the USB cable and open up SD card storage (removable disk). After that, before installing zip from sdcard I did the same wipe you do and…woilà! Even if the first boot freezed at the little white “monster”, I pulled out the battery and the second boot was perfect:)

                      Thank you very much for ur support

  9. Hi Jayce; I have attempted to make the change to android. I followed your steps and everything was going fine until the clockwork mode recovery. After clockwork was installed the phone shut down and booted up to the “boot menu.” When I shut it down, I restarted the phone to check the software version, they were all correct. Then I tried to install the last piece of software, MAGLDR. it would not install; it said, connect usb to flasher mode. Apparently, the Windows Mobile no longer connected to the phone. I tried and tried to connect the Windows Mobile but no success. Any suggestions?

  10. Just to add, I have the HTC HD2 phone. Since I can not boot up to the regular windows 6.5 anymore (it always, always boot up to the MAGLDR v1.13 Boot Menu), is there a way to restore or boot up back to the old Windows 6.5? I am running scared–help.

  11. Hi Jayce, can you help me with this problem, I follow the video to install the DAF I right click and run as administrator and once I click next and see this on DFT information about android
    readme.txt for this release is missing and I click next again shows
    An error has occurred
    Read below for more information

    Error Description: Config load failed.
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (725)

    Error Description: CONFIG: can’t open config file
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (304)

    did I miss and step? thanks.

  12. Sup jayec??? I have been installed magldr 1.13 and was running a nand rom ( no sd card). Just added cwm and downloaded 2 roms to my sd card ( RCMix3D_Runny_v3.3.zip & MccM+MixTheme+V9++Runymede+Rhyme+Sense+3.5.zip ). With RCMix3D when i go to install it gets about half way through the error message saying “Installation Aborted”…. With MccM+Mix it almost goes stright to saying ” Installation Aborted” any ideas as to why it wont go thru???

  13. Helloooooo

    I cant get in to cmr anymore? any DAF through pc says Readme.txt for this release is missing. roupdatemutlity says no connection magldr disagrees.

    errrrrm

    any help is most welcome.
    thanks

  14. Hi Jayce,
    I’ve Installed recovery_150M_system_5M_cache[v3.0.2.5] for TyphooN_CM7_v3.7.0-MAGLDR.
    If I want to try this ICS what should I do? Re-flash CWM? And the partition?
    And If I want to return to Cyanogen?

  15. When you say reflash is to download Recovery_v1.3_250M and then follow the Step by Step Guide described above (Conect, execute DAF, …)
    After that maybe I should I create EXT3 partition on SD card ? How much (size and cache)?

    Thank you in advance…

  16. Sorry Jayce, now i’m confused.
    “ICS does not use EXT3 partition yet” ok
    And XDA says Partition Layout 5/200/5 ?!!!
    What does it mean?
    My EXT3 partition it will be useless?

  17. Hi Jayce

    thanks for the tut. I used 150m part am stuck at step 10.. it dint reboot to macldr … there is a screen where says Restart now…! and stays there for every what should I do..thanks in advance

    reg.

  18. Hi Jayce,

    I like to install nand Rom A2SD+ “HD2_Core_Droid_Desire_HD_Froyo_V1.7_RV”, on my htc HD2
    please tell me what’s the best CWM to install (150, 250, or 400).
    and on which partition should I copy the rom to FAT32 or EXT 3 (with widows pc the second choice is not possible!)
    also, for this kind of ROMS; will apps installation be automatically done to SD card, or I should move them manually

  19. i installed android ICS on my hd2 and everything was going just fine but then when it started up its stuck on the green htc logo with black background. i think it is due to the fact that i installed CWM 150 mb partition and not the CWM 250mb partition. so i tried to replace the 150mb partion with the 250mb partition but it shows this-

    An error has occurred
    Read below for more information

    Error Description: USB init failed
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (736)

    i think the reason for this is that i cant get the phone into USB flasher because whenever i turn on the fone it just tries to start android ICS and gets stuck o the htc logo scren.

    PLS HELP ME!!!

    atleast tell me how to get back the windows 6.5 if not anything else!

  20. dear sir..

    when i’m trying to repartition my htc hd2,i have my
    step number 6.You should see Wait USB…USB…doesn’t appear..it says wait USB only…

    can u tell where i’m going wrong ?

    regards

  21. Jayce,

    I have now Gingerbread on my phone..
    I do everything but i forget to do the 250mb CWM partition because is only let see the HTC logo with black background.

    I want to get the 2050 partition but my usb in my phone is broken..

    Is it possible to do it on a other way? maybe bij putting de stuff on the sd-card?

    I hope you will know it!

  22. i dont know what to do. im stuck at step 8. i keep getting the usb int failed and bootloader missing. the bootloader file is included and i do get the “waiting usb…usb” i followed all the previous steps carefully what do i do?

  23. Hi..did the clockrecoverymod step and P.C. said complete then it loaded into magloader like you said it would Next it says go to # 8 AD recovery but my phone says 1-boot AD SD 2 Boot AD Nand #3 USB MassStg #4 USB Flasher #5 USB TTY 6 AD Hardreset 7 Tetris # 8 Services #9 Reset & 10 Powerdown..NO AD REcovery…?

  24. Hi Jayce!

    I did all the steps from here, everything worked fine but I installed by mistake the 400 mb version of CWM and the phone stucks in the graphical window with waves.
    I cannot install the 250mb version because i receive this error:
    Error Description:USB init failed
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (736)

    How should I proceed?
    I installed the beta 10 version of ICS and it always stucks in the graphical waves.
    How can I install the 250mb version now?

  25. First off Thanks for all the info Jayce,
    Followed the instructions for installing Nand Ice Cream Sandwich on my HD2.
    everything went perfect until i tried to select the zip file now for some reason my HD2 acts like it doesn’t recognize the battery i.e. it won’t even power up unless it is plugged into the charger or usb’d to my laptop/pc. it went as far as to try and run android but when it reset it just goes back to MAGLDR 1.13 try to go to AD Recovery to access clockwork 1.3 but the phone cycles power and goes back to MAGLDR. read a lot of the posts but it doesn’t seem like anyone else is having the same power problem

    • Jayce,
      Impeccable work, disregard my last post. apparently when you get really excited you can bend one of the pins that contact the battery when you hastily put it back in to try your new android OS and said bent pin will keep aforementioned battery from making contact and giving a jackass like me the illusion of a more serious problem. after some quick investigating, found the bent pin, bent it back and 3 minutes later my hd2 was up and running android! even installed UD 3.3 on it to see if i’d like it better. again outstanding work, i did it so a monkey could make this happen with the easy to follow instructions you provided.

  26. Hey!

    I installed ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3 with 250MB partition. I cannot enter to the 8. AD Recovery to install Android ICS. All the time i try the phone restarts 🙁

    Do you have any solution for this?

  27. Hello please answer me fast
    when i do this i get this error

    An error has occurred
    Read below for more information

    Error Description: USB init failed
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (736)

    Error Description: EnterBootloader missing
    Info: .\RSPL\BootLoader.cpp (176)

    but i think i did forget to download the radio thing

    what to do !!!

  28. hey.. I tried installing ICS 4.0 beta 10 from the link, but after installing everything, it’s showing the colorful loading screen of Android and it’s looping that over and over again for over two hours now. Is this supposed to happen? I’m using 400MB Clockwork mod. I tried downloading the 250 MB partition but it seems the link is dead. It’s just redirecting to the website home page. The 150 MB and 400 MB partition links work, but the 250 MB one doesn’t. I’m not sure if I’m the only one with this problem but I tried with other computers as well, and I can’t download it. Even to make a custom firmware, I’ll need the 250 MB one, right?

    Can you please check the link or re-upload again? Thanks.

      • Yeah, I did that. It works fine now. I was just pointing out that the link doesn’t work and maybe you should mention that for others in case they want to use the 250 MB one.

        Thanks for the tutorial, Android works fine on my HTC HD 2 and so does WP7.5.

  29. Ok that’s working but now when I downloaded all the files and everything but
    I’m having trouble dragging the ROM onto my SD card using my usb cable i’m
    in MASS STRG as well but when i drag the ROM over it starts the copy then stops about half way through and says “This is no longer located
    on the desktop, verify the item location and try again”

  30. @Jean-Paul: Since you don’t have “Wait USB…USB”, suspected you don’t have Windows Mobile Device Center installed on Windows Vista / Windows 7 or ActiveSync installed on Windows XP. Please install it.

  31. Hi.jayce,

    So i want to upgrade my device from 2.3.7 to 4.0.3.
    Where can i see the partition layout that i have chosen and how am i able to change it?

    Thx

  39. Jayce, I followed your steps on installing CWM correctly.
    However, when I select: 8. Ad recovery, CWM won’t boot up.
    It stays at the screen: 123456 go go go! and then nothing happens.

    Could you please help me out,

    thanks

  40. Dears ;
    can someone provide me with technical answer on How to obtain the full internal memory space which is 512 MB on my HTC HD2 running Ice Cream Sandwich OS ; so my question is which CWM Reovery partition should i install to obtain the 512 MB internal memory because now i have only 152 MB as internal memory and i forgot which CWM i have nstalled

  41. Hi there Jaycee, first of all thank you for the great job and info you post here.

    I fall all your steps, and everything works fine, however, i’m experiencing low internal space in my HD2 running android 4 IceCream Sandwich, with CWM 250MB (amazing).

    I read all the comments and i can’t understand how it works, there is a lot of info (Ext3?, app2SD!).
    Could you please help me and show me what should i do (if possible) to increase this internal memory inmy HD2.

    Is there anyting i can do to increase the internal memory from 150Mb to something else?

    Sorry about repeated question but i really don’t understand what to do.

    Best regards

    PS: Sorry about my english too.

    • Hi NSaraiva, use the recommended CWM layout size by ROM chef. The smaller the better as it increases internal user storage.

      Personally, I did not test A2SD+ on ICS ROM. So not sure it works or not. But just follow the instructions from ROM chef will do.

  42. hey please help me i messed it up and every time i turn on my htc hd2 it goes back to the clock recovery mode is there any way i can go back to my home screen
    thanks reply as as possible

  43. hey again..
    i tried to install clockworkmod recovery v13
    i installed it perfectly but when i enter AD recovery it shows this messge : no boot sources !

  44. I reinstall it again and it worked as ur mobile did .. but when i press on AD recovery it says in red line (( no boot sources )) !

  45. Hi Jayce
    I am not very experienced, but I have magldr installed.

    I have Wait USB..USB okay.

    I opened flash.cfg in notepad, changed to:
    boot yboot|ro 5M
    system ya 220M
    cache ya 7M
    Not sure if this is correct??, and then saved it back into recovery?

    When I run DAF.exe i get message: Readme.txt for this release is missing,
    then when i go to next step:

    Error Description: Config load failed.
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (725)

    Error Description: CONFIG: file not exist
    Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (359)

    I have WMDC opened, but I cannot establish a link with HD2 while its in Magldr state, does this matter? If so can i revernt my HD2 to windows so i can establish conenction with MMDC?

    Thank you in advance.

    • Depend on your Android ROM requirement. No right and wrong here. Yes, save it after edited.

      Which CWM layout size did you download?

      Which function in MAGLDR? No need to revert back to WinMo. You get ‘Wait USB..USB’ is okay already.

  47. Hi, Jayce,
    Can i install 150MB for ICS 4.0.3 instead of 200MB. The reason i have is when using 200MB, after installed ICS 4.0.3, the MEM left about 50MB, and normally the applicaton i am using is not included in the I.C.S. that i need to download further thus extra mem will be used, caused left behind a minimum mem and will cause the stopage of updating the downloaded application and downloading of new application. so, thinking to use 150MB then after installation of ICS 4.0.3, left behaind will be 250MB which will be at a better situation. Kindly advise 150MB workable for I.C.S. 4.0.3 ? or no choice has to use 200MB ? pls adv. thank you.

    Appreciated.

  50. Hi, jayce,
