htc hd2 dual boot

Htc Hd2 dual boot Windows phone7 and American Android 2.3.7 tested by me here is the procedure

Requirements:

• HTC HD2. (Both LEO512 (standard) and LEO1024 TMOUS (T-Mobile USA) versions supported)
• A microSD card that supports Windows Phone 7. Most 8 GB+ SanDisk and Kingston Class 2 or higher cards seem to work well. Most Samsung cards give problems and may even become utterly unusable if used with Windows Phone 7. Try it at your own risk.
• A computer with a built-in or USB microSD card reader.
• EASEUS Partition Master Home Edition (Free)
  
• MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition (Free)
  

Procedure:

• Make sure the desired microSD card is inserted into your HTC HD2.
• Now visit our guide on how to install Windows Phone 7 on HTC HD2 with MAGLDR and follow all the steps there. Proceed to the next step here when done with that.
  
• When your HD2 boots into Windows Phone 7 for the first time, go through its setup wizard and then go to Settings > about and tap ‘reset your phone’.
• Confirm the prompts that you get and wait till the phone reboots after the reset process. While rebooting, it will be setting up the necessary partitions on the SD card.
• Once it has rebooted into Windows Phone 7, reset it once more after finishing with the setup wizard but this time, don’t let it boot back into Windows Phone 7 during the reset. Instead, when it powers off to restart, keep the Power button pressed until you see the MAGLDR menu.
• Now while the phone is in MAGLDR, remove its SD card and insert it into your PC using the SD card reader.

Important: Make sure the phone does not boot into Windows Phone 7 till we have completely setup the SD card and inserted it back into the phone.

• Launch EASEUS Partition Master on your computer. You will see two partitions on the SD card: a 200MB FAT partition and an unformatted partition taking up the remaining space.
• Right-click on the unformatted partition and select ‘Delete’.
• Click ‘Apply’. EASEUS Partition Master will refresh after applying the change and you will now see unallocated space instead of that unformatted partition.
• Right-click on the unallocated space and click ‘Create’.
• Set this new partition as Unformatted and Logical, and choose a suitable size. This will be your Windows Phone 7 partition and it MUST be larger than the other Android partition we’re going to make. In other words, its size MUST be more than half of the total space on the SD card.
• Move this partition to the end of the SD card and click ‘Apply’. EASEUS Partition Master will refresh again after applying the change and you will see the new partition created.
• Exit EASEUS Partition Master, safely remove the SD card from the computer and insert it back into the HD2.
• Now boot your HD2 into Windows Phone 7 and again (for the last time) go through the setup wizard.
• Now would be a good time to go to the ‘About’ screen and verify the amount of internal storage you have available. It should be close to the partition size you selected. A difference of upto 1 GB is normal though.
• Fully power your device off, take the SD card out and insert it into your computer via the SD card reader.
• Launch EASEUS Partition Master again and this time, right-click on the 200MB FAT partition and click ‘Resize/Move’.
• Make this partition fill up all the unallocated empty space and click ‘Apply’. Let EASEUS refresh after applying the changes. You should now have the two partitions taking up the entire SD card space, with the FAT partition being the first and smaller, and the Unformatted partition being the second and larger.
• Format the FAT partition to FAT32 with 32KB or 64KB cluster/allocation unit size, click ‘Apply’ and wait till it refreshes.
• Exit EASEUS and launch MiniTool Partition Wizard.
• Right-click the FAT32 partition, go to ‘Modify’ and select ‘Set Partition as Primary’.
• Click ‘Apply’ and wait for the changes to take effect. Exit MiniTool once done.
• Now your SD card and HD2 has been configured correctly to run Windows Phone 7 and Android both. The last thing to do is to install an Android SD card build. For help with that, see how to boot Android from SD card of HTC HD2 with MAGLDR.
  

Congratulations! Your HTC HD2 has now both Windows Phone 7 and Android installed on it and configured for dual-booting using MAGLDR.
