Bootloaders
Because of the age of the HD2, there are serval 3rd party bootloaders available, most commonly used:
- Haret, Haret is a bootloader (provided as haret.exe) to boot linux or android from WITHIN windows mobile, you start windows mobile, not a great choice for postmarketOS.
- a(MagLDR), Propitary 3rd party bootloader developed by Cotulla, some folks over at Tytung's android forum, reverse egineered it and created aMagLdr, still propietary (?)
- cLK, based on littlekernel and download possible with cwm or twrp recovery embedded, seems to be the best option. Littlekernel also provides fastboot wich is handy. Only this bootloader is tested right now.
