Download MarkinuX HD ExtraClean SD MAGLDR Android ROM for HTC HD2

I saw MarkinuX HD ExtraClean on NAND Android for sometimes but I did not try it because it requires to enable ‘UseLast24NAND’ which might make your device won’t boot more if not handle properly. So I ignore it until xda-developer, Markinus released another version on SD MAGLDR. Yeah… I can try it now with no worry. MarkinuX HD ExtraClean is based on HTC Desire HD Build (Android 2.2.1) but without HTC Widgets, Sense stuffs, etc. Camera, Album, Music player, Clock, Email, Messenger, Keyboard and Twitter are still there. And added Gingerbread Launcher.
