XDA Developer, tytung has done a very well done job on bringing good ROM and GPS Libraries to HTC HD2. I tried his Froyo, Gingerbread and Ice Cream Sandwich ROM. And now he has Android HTC HD2 ROM based on CyanogenMod 9. This is the version that he is currently developing and supporting. So whoever love to use Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich ROM on HTC HD2 should try out this very ROM.

Personally, I did not able to try this ROM because my HTC HD2 is not with me at the moment. So I have no idea on the ROM performance and features. You need to tell me after try it out.
Note – You need to use 165MB CWM partition layout size for V1.4. And do refer to XDA website for more info on how to increase the internal storage size.

hi!!!
Jayce thanx u have done great job
I have installed 1.4 on 250 mb CWM everything is working perfectly, except android market.
as i intiated to download any app from app market, download start but as soon download completeed phone automatically restart without installing the app.
and same goes again if i want to install any other app.
what can i do???
Sorry harshit, no idea. Try to consult ROM chef at XDA see.
i am at last step already, why my Android 4.0 ICS OS keep loading non-stop 1? I already wait 30mins still keep loading
How much CWM partition layout size did you install?
400M 1, anything wrong? or can i ask how to restore my phone hmm…
i just take off the battery and on again, still loading very long time. Can you please help me to solve the problem? thanks
You need to use 165MB CWM partition layout size for V1.4.
https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/08/15/how-to-restore-stock-rom-on-htc-hd2-video/
so I just need to restore and do it again by using 165MVB CWM instead of using 400M right?
yes i have try it
i just restart my phone, wait until 1 and half hour, my hd2 still loading
by the way, i only can download ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3 150MB Partition, is the 165M 1 is equivalent to 150M 1?
thx jayce, it works!
actually how long i need to wait until android 4.0 loading finish? I am using ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3 150MB Partition now
I thought that you already solve your issue. You need CWM 165M for this Android ROM.
not yet, still need wait long time to loading, i only got 150M 1,CWM 165M where to download?
You need create it yourself using 250MB. Refer to the guide in CWM.
i can’t understand what “Edit flash.cfg to match the sizes require by Android ROM” stand for
Take your time to study it then. 😉
i try using 250M lol
Hi, Jayce
i am unable to switch off my hd2, when i switched off my phone i goes for power off but as soon it restart automatically. what can i do to swichoff for some time????
Do you charge it with USB cable when switch off? This is a known bug of MAGLDR.
Everything is great… except for the battery drain… but i think its the ICS and not about the ROM we got… I saw that it constantly tries to connect to Google+ and syncs my photos etc… so now my battery that used to last about 20-24hrs with WinMo lasts only 6-8hrs now… great… simply great…
by the way can you point me where I can find the instructions for making a backup in CWM and how do I flash some update… example I want to install the zip in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449040 … can you help me???
Boot into CWM. Go to backup and restore. Select Backup.
Desktop manager for Android phones… http://www.wondershare.com/android-manager/
I just used it and want to share… i am not attached with the company or anything of that sort… its a free tool…
i installed it but it asks for money
it only asks if you want the pro features like migrating from the Nokia etc… for normal use… no issues…
yes its asking to buy..when you want to transfer contacts from computer outlook file.
phone is stuck at shinii colored things
What had you installed?
how can you make the battery stop draining? any tools?
perhaps task Killer in Andriod 🙂

the wifi is not working help mee
hi jayce i couldn’t download this android 4.0.3 cm9!! 🙁
why?
can you give me a tested link to me?please………..
I have no idea. You might want to consult your ISP.
Ok,it was correct,it works correctly but i dont love it,it’s too slow on HD2,
on galaxy s2 is more faster than it, i prefer CM7-2 2.3.7 gingerbread!
Better than perfect!! 🙂
You need to use 165MB CWM partition layout size for V1.4.
Jayce, how to do for above partition?
Please refer to CWM installation guide.
plz paste CWM instalition guide link.thanks
Please refer to ICS installation guide.

Tarun
Hi Tarun, please consult ROM chef at XDA website. I also don’t know.
hey i installed ics and at the first i just saw “android is updating – optimizing application xx of 54”
now im waiting since 25 min. will my phone ever start or should i use an other rom 🙂
Hi fero, please consult ROM chef at XDA website on your issue.
Hi jayce . For now, is this the best ics rom for Htc HD2 ?
Can you tell me , just which is the best nand rom with good battery life and stable?
Yes, this should be one of the best ICS ROM.
Best ROM is depended on your usage.
i know. but there just so many devs working on a rom and its hard to choose the best rom.
btw , i just bought this phone only . before this i’m a n900 maemo user.
Hello jayce..firstly, thanks to u i had installed ics for my htc hd2. I want to ask u, is there any way for me to increase my phone’s internal storage size?
Hi adam, install A2SD+.
Already did that.. but certain apps cannot be transfered.. after few apps installed, then the memory run out..
Huh? I thought A2SD+ will auto install apps on EXT3 partition. No need to transfer manually.
Owh..sorry..i thought u said any kind of apps2sd would be okay..could you tell me how to install a2sd+ please
Please refer to the installation guide in XDA website.

The new ROM (V2.0 HWA (May 5, 2012) works great! I have not yet found any flaws with it. It does take a bit to turn back on after reset or when turning the phone back on, but other than that…its great!
Can you please post a link? was not able to find it anywhere by googling… thank you all so much.
hey, i just want to ask… installing this ROM to my phone will make me lose all my apps? i want to install another ROM cause the camera is not working and the phone is pretty slow i mean in apps… 🙁
Yes, but you can backup all apps and settings with Titanium Backup first. Then install new Android ROM. Finally, restore back.

Hi Jayce,
I have purchased one more HD2 and it has Gingerbread NAND. I want to install NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.1
What will be the first step of installation ?
Please advise
Regards,
Kamran
Skip those components that already installed. Then install the rest.
HELLO, COULD U PLZ HELP MEI N THE SAME BUDDY..MY EMAIL ID IS kiranjshedge@gmail.com.plz reply
hi Kamran? plz help
If you won’t mind can you guide me little more. I mean what do u mean by skip those and how ?
Regards,
Kamran
Components like SPL-2.08.HSPL, Radio that support 576 MB RAM, DFT MAGLDR Bootloader v1.13
and ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3. No need to install them if you already have.
Great Jayce!!!
Then I have to uninstall only Gingerbread ROM.
Last question, How to unistall existing ROM (Gingerbread) ?
Regards,
Kamran
Wipe data and cache in CWM. Then install new Android ROM. It will replace existing one.
Hi jayce,
Did wipe data and cache in CWM then installed new ROM and rebooted the phone. Phone is stuck and intial screen (Colors flying). Repeated the process wipe data and cache in CWM and renistalled new ROM.
Now phone doesn’t boot, and goes to CWM after giving error “NAND KERNAL OPEN FAILED”
Tried to restore WINDOWS STOCK ROM with SD but failed.
What can i do now 🙁
Please help.
Regards,
Kamran
Hi Kamran, since you already restore back to Windows Mobile (but failed). HSPL might be removed. Restart the whole Android installation again.
Thank you very much
I will redo the entire process of Android installation. I hope everything will be fine, if not then I will bug you again 🙂
New ICS ROM, NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.1 released by developers on 15 May. Camcoder, Theme, FB sync all working. have you tried it ?
Regards,
Kamran
By the way, please make sure that you install the correct CWM layout for this ICS ROM.
Nope, did not try this new ICS ROM.
Correct CWM layout = Partition 250
Is it ?
Nope, that’s depend on Android ROM.
kamran its 200.. try it..
well my hslp updation is showing..we hack it..press ok to done..and when i tried to update Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14 than it says updation will take 10 minute..but i waited a lot..finaly communication error..
jayes i think my earlier nand android dark force team is unable to update..what to do..please guide..i am dying to download 4.0.4 android ics
Hi Tarun, did you install SPL-2.08.HSPL?
Hi Jayce,
I did reinstallation of Android (All process) as advised.
Now I am getting error message “SD KERNEL OPEN FAILED”
Windows STOCK ROM is also not getting restored by renaming *.nbh to leoimg.nbh and copying in SD to get back to orginal window 🙁
What to do now ? I am stuck. Please help.
Regards,
Kamran
Why you are trying to load SD card Android? You install NAND version of Android, right?
By the way, don’t simply revert back to Windows Mobile when you are stuck in something during Android ROM installation.
Thanks Jayce.
SPL-2.08.HSPL is install in my HD2. I can see below info when I go to red-green-blue-white screen.
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.05.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x50
I understand from above SPL-2.08 is installed and by installing below and ROM phone should boot.
•Radio that support 576 MB RAM
•DFT MAGLDR Bootloader v1.13
•ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3
I did the reinstallation process 3 times earlier I was getting NAND KERNAL FAILED and now getting error message SD KERNAL FAILED.
Any idea how to fix it ?
What did you do until you get SD KERNEL FAILED message?
after installation DFT MAGLDR Bootloader v1.13, KERNAL FAILED message appears then phones goes to MAGDLDR menu.
Continue to install CWM then.
Installed CWM as well.
After installation CWM, when phone goes to MAGLDR, again “KERNAL FAIlED” message aapears. I ignored the message and proceed to next stage “ROM Installation”
ROM installation starts and very next movement, message appears “INSTALLATION ABORTED”
Which Android ROM did you install? Is the zip file okay (not corrupted)?
Yes Jayce, It’s a zip file and installation was successful in my anohter HD2
Try to find out the different between these 2 HD2. This will narrow down the issue.
No difference Jayce, except the error ‘NAND KERNAL FAILED” seen while installation.
jayce,
i have successfully downloaded and installed 4.0.4…no problem at all, camera and camcorder is working perfectly..
dear kamran,
its all about cwm.. do it properly.

Best ROM is depend on each person use. You can get most of the ROM at XDA website.
Dude Jayce,
Tytung has completed 4.0.4 cm9 and all the features are now working.Please make a guide and a video ASAP. Cant wait to get hands on that rom..but i dont to get my phone bricked in the way..Thnx
Installation is the same. Just you need 168MB CWM layout size.
Hi Jayce,
I put Tytung’s new 4.0.4 v2.2 on my HD2 a couple of days ago. (I put it on a 180 MB partition). First impressions – great!!! It actually feels lighter than the CM7 2.3.7 done by another developer I have been using for a while. At this point I really recommend it. Haven’t yet run into something that doesn’t work in it.
Thanks for your videos. They helped a lot when I decided to retire the the old Win OS.
Installation complete but it is still on the HTC screen. How long will it take to load the new OS?
Hi Joel, less than 30 minutes.
It is still in the same mode. Is there anything that I can do to make it work?
Thank you for your help
Finally I got it to work. I didn’t have the correct partition earlier.
Thank you so much!

Hey Jayce,
I wanted to install this ROM but as long as no guides are its going to be hard and i dont want to damage my phone so can you send me a video guide or a more detailed guide please? I was searching on XDA but i couldnt find 🙁
Hi Michael, take time to study my video guides here. Installation process is the same.
hi
my uasble flash size is suppose to be 957mb but my phone only shows 512mb.
what can i do to increase this as this does not allow me to load many apps from android market
Hi daaie, please consult others at XDA website. I don’t have T-Mobile HD2. Not sure about that.
Mute/Unmute funtion of mic doesnot work when you have active call
Hey,
This is just like installing android at the first time? (i mean the installation process)?? I just do the same steps?? I have installed this one: https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/11/21/how-to-install-android-4-0-ice-cream-sandwich-on-htc-hd2-video/
Reinstall correct CWM layout size. Then wipe data and cache. Finally, install new Android ROM.
Thanks, and one final question, what size needs the CWM layout need??
Please check with ROM chef. Each Android ROM has its own CWM layout size requirement.
Hey Jayce, I was trying to install this ROM but when i try to install the ROM it says:
> Installing: /sdcard/NexusHD2.ICS.CM9.HWA.v2.4.zip
> Finding update package…
> Opening update package…
E: Can’t open /sdcard/NexusHD2.ICS.CM9.HWA.v.2.4.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I tried the 150MB CWM and the 250MB CWM but i doesen’t works. I’ve done everything just like in the installation video on your site but it doesen’t works please help me!!!
I was in USB mode on android beta 10 as I erased the sd card and then copy the CM9 ROM on the sd card that was empty and then i rebooted the phone in Magldr installed CWM and done everything like in your video. PLEASE HELP!
Hi Jackie, you need to use exact 170MB CWM layout size for v2.4. And make sure that the zip file is not corrupted.
Do i need to change system partition beacause i dont find 170mb CWM on the internet to download 🙁
I tried the 2.3 version but I can’t copy it to the sd card it freezes :((((
Create custom 170MB CWM layout size yourself. Please refer to CWM installation guide.
Now i’ve got another problem, when I try to copy to my sd card it says copying… and freezes, MAGLDR freezes too and if I put the card into my card reader it the PC doesen’t recognize it but only my card :(( This is the only 4 GB card that i have :(( what should I do?
Look, I can’t use my sd card now at all, if i try to copy anything on it it freezes please help me!
So my sd card doesen’t work, but the phone (with magldr) works fine but I wanted to ask, it is possible to install the CWM without sd card? and if i am going to buy another sd card will the magldr and CWM still work??
Ok, let’s say I install 170mb CWM and I have got the brand new sd card, should I install ICS Beta 10 at first and then install ICS 4.0.4 CM9 ROM or should I install the ICS CM9 ROM directly??? The SD Card is brand new… and im gonna install the 170mb CWM without the sd card in it, is it ok?
Install ICS CM9 ROM directly. Yes. But you still need SD card to install Android ROM.
Yes, you can install CWM without SD card. Yes, if everything is okay.
Try to format your SD card.
I’ve got it the archive was corrupted i`m downloading it again thanks!
i installed a 4.0.1 android on my htc hd2…everything ok but i cant connect to the internet…plz help me sir plzzzzzzzzzzzzz sir

Hi Jayce, I used the phone for a few days, it was fine. and now the screen is locked and I can not slide to unlock it. Tried reset and unplugging the battery -nothing helps. Clock is alive and I still can get and answer the phone using hardware key. Is it hardware (touchscreen ) issue ? Any thought?
Yes, maybe. HTC HD2 is known to have touchscreen hardware issue.
Thanks Jayce, Well, too bad – it was my favorite phone for almost 4 years…
Hi Jayce,
Can you tell me if ICS MIUI has been released for HD2
Thanks
Still Android 2.3.7. I don’t think MIUI Team is updating HD2 ROM anymore.
Ok why I am not able to update from 2.3.5 to 2.3.7? each time i check for system updates it says I have the latest updated version?
I don’t use OTA update. No idea. Usually, update the ROM directly by CWM.
Thanks
One last question, do you recommend other version which is more stable than MIUI built? If yes, please provide me with more links
Thanks again and I really appreciate your efforts and support 🙂
Sorry Tareq, I stopped using HD2 for quite sometimes. And did not try out the latest build. So no idea which one is better and stable. You have to try out yourself to find out. 😉

Hi kalpana, you can try Android ROM with smaller CWM layout size. This will increase internal storage.
ok,,,, pls tell me what is the procedure of the same…
Installation process is the same.
sry , i dnt understand… pls tell me full process… if you have no problem…
The installation guide in the article, dear.
no i mean to ask that.. should i use full procedure of isntallation of andoroid as i did last time or only one….
Install new CWM layout size. Then install Android ROM.
ok thx dear
Hi Jayce
One more question, can i choose 400 mb partition For Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
is this work properly .
This one – NexusHD2 Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Beta10?
okkkkkkkkkkk thxxxxxxxxxxx
hllo jayce
i was trying to increase internal storage with cwm 400mb layout size.. but it’s nt working. after installing “”NexusHD2 Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Beta10″” phone was not start, it’s still showing starting mode bt not start.. what can i do now.
Hi kalpana, that ROM needs 220MB CWM layout size.
if i need about 400 mb layout size, then what can i do..
Use ROM that supports it.
hmmmmmmm,,,, then tell me “”ROM”” plssssssssssssssssssssssss
I forgot the exact one. Try to search at my blog. Should be HTC Sense build ROM.
oh,, ok thx dear
Hllo Jayce,
I am still confused, if i choose another android version, then how many internal storage i get.
please clear this issue, because after using link2sd, apps are automatically moving to sd card, bt internal storage, showing low… why i dnt know.. pls help me jayce…
Thx
The bigger CWM layout size = the smaller internal storage you will get. So get the smallest CWM layout size Android ROM.
You mean to say, if i choose 150mb partition in CWM then i get bigger internal storage..,
if it is true, then, can i choose 150mb partition in my current “”NexusHD2 Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich Beta10 “”
should it works ????????
Yes. That ROM can’t use 150MB, need 220MB.
ok then can i try this one… CyanogenMod 9 Android 4.0 ICS ROM for HTC HD2.
if it’s not then pls tell me exact one ….. for more internal storage…
Sure, you can try any one that you prefer.
oh dear,,, thx so much…

Create EXT3 partition on SD card is not the same as install CWM. They are 2 different things.
but phone is working now,,, nexus is installed… and working smoothly ,, after using ext3 partition..
is this wrong way ????
Err… Your phone is working now. So what is the issue again?
hahhhaa,,, not issues dear,,
jst need to know one thing..
the sd card which i used in ext partition.. should i use the same in my phone or another card …
is this ok if i use another card..
@kalpana, is okay to use another card if nothing is stored on EXT3 partition.
ohhh.. in that case ,, that card i used for installation of NexusHD2 Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich Beta10 “”
this file is in that card.. , is that ok if i remove that card from my phone…
Try remove it to find out, right?
