Help , How to flash stock SPL Without touchscreen

Hello , I flashed dutty's 1.8 ROM on to my HD , then on that same night I applied a screen protector and left it overnight . On the next morning , I tried to scroll to the messaging tab in TF3D , but my screen didn't respond , I think it has something to do with me using a bit too much solution to apply the screen protector , which still got scratched in the end .
I have decided to try using the warranty to fix the phone but first I want to flash back the stock ROM and SPL , is there a way to do this without using the touchscreen at all ?
EDIT : Ok now i'm stuck ,I've flashed a stock ROM but I can't restore stock SPL , i'm stuck at the 'align screen' section and the HardSPL RUU gives me a connection error 202 , last time i solved this by unchecking 'enable faster activesync' or something like that , but i can't go there now
Any advice ?
Thanks

I can't see why not, using the RUU method might be easier but the SD card will let you do the ROM, not sure about SPL. Have a look at the tutorials.

Hello! I'm a french user and got the same problem since a few weeks.
Everything is left original on my phone (rom , programs ,...)and sometimes the screnn freezes after hanging up a call...impossible to get any reaction on the screen , only solution...soft reset and then the screen reacts perfectly again!!!????
Didn't find any solution on the web.

I've got exactly the same problem:
my touchscreen isn't working any more, and for warranty reasons i want to flash back to original rom and stock spl. Rom worked fine (O2_XDA_Diamond_1.93_RUU), but now I can't go back to the original stock spl.
I tried as to be seen here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2324829&postcount=39
But I've got the same "connection 202 error" as splink...
By trying the installation from the Bootloader runing on my Diamond, the screen and my pc shows an completed 100% installation of the stock spl, but when I take a look now at the bootloader, it's say again that im using the "SPL-1.40.OliNex"
Does anyone has got any idea how to get back to the original stock spl?

Had a similar problem using HSPL with communication errors when trying to get back to stock radio and stock spl. I used USPL in the end by first flashing the stock rom, then the stock radio and finally the stock spl (1.14). Then I reflashed stock rom and it all worked.
Using USPL you just rename the SPL rom image "BLACIMG.nbh" but you should be aware that there are risks (see post 236) involved doing it this way. I had no choice and took the risk and everything was ok.
Do read about it all in the USPL thread and there is some useful info in the HSPL thread as well.

Error (262) for diamond2 wm 6.5

Hi,
Help me please just me and that happens to me the mistakes my God.... I had the original ROM version coming with my diamond2, put the upgrading and went well until the moment he arrived at 9% and restart the pda, re-install I think is normal, however the installation continued until k stopped in 18% and after a long time gave a notice of error (262) made the recovery as recommended and continues to give error ....
I do help me please

This just happened to me too
My phone was hardspl´d
It stuck at 18%, but no error message so far. Did you unplug your phone?

Read this:

I'm not sure. Have you flashed other roms before? Perhaps you have a bad download. I know the servers are overloaded from all of us geeks sucking down the WM6.5 rom... perhaps its bad.
What I normally do is put the phone in bootloader mode first by holding VolDown, while resetting the phone. This will give windows time to install the proper drivers and get situated. Once done, try flashing again.
I think 262 is a connection error. Probably driver related since you said you ran your stock rom. But check your cable. Make sure its secure and reliable. Next try another USB slot. If nothing else try a different computer... sometimes PCs just will not cooperate.

Thank you very much fighter, will try that.

I had Official 6.1 Asia WWE installed, HARDSPLed. Tried to upgrade to 6.5 on my computer and my laptop, nothing worked. Both stops at 9%, disconnects, comes back and stucks at 18% again. Had to go back to 6.1, this time it worked to bring phone to life.
My phone was bought in Taiwan.
Guess I am out of luck

I think the best way to upgrade is as follows:
1. Run the RUU_Topaz_S_HTC_WWE_2.16.405.4_Radio_Sign_Topaz_61.44tc.25.32_4.49.25.17_Ship.exe on your PC/laptop to extract and get the RUU-signed.nbh.
2. Copy the RUU-signed.nbh to topaz SD card and rename to topaimg.nbh
3. Upgrade new ROM from SD card.

I had the same 262 error as well, screen went blank for a second at 9% and finally freezez at 18% with the error message. Heres what you need to do:
Update your HardSPL to 1.83
Flash 6.5 again
????
Profit!

Hello,
already did everything you say and nothing. I liked to tell me where I can get the former Rom wm6.1 because meeting.
help me please

7. Install Duttys ROM or Official ROM works too

Hello,
I already installed the previous ROM with the 6.1 and everything was normal.
I tried to install again the OFFICIAL ROM 6.5 and the problem remains back to the error at 9% and 18% for the progress bar giving an error (262).
not understand some things as:
6. Update HARDSPL 1.83; Ask brother to donate

Sorry:
1. install Hard-SPL 1.83.OliNex (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312)
2. install 6.5 ROM or Cooked Rom.
It resets 9% again in Official ROM, but reconnects and go to 100% (no stop 18% again).

When you run the RUU, the RUU-signed.nbh will be extract temporarily to a folder in driver C:
(For me: C:\Users\Duongla\AppData\Local\Temp\pft51D9.tmp)
Just do a search and you'll find it.
And remember to HSPL to 1.83.

Can not install offical 6.5 from HTC

Hi
I just bought a used Diamond 2 and wanted to update it to 6.5.
But when i try it stops for at 9% and then looses connection with the PC but recovers and continues to 18% then it stops and the RUU wants to recover the installation, that resulted in the same error.
Luckely I tried the offical 6.1 installation, and that installd OK so my phone is OK.
But why can´t I install 6.5?
I checked with the guy i bought it from, and he said it has been flashed before with a dutty or tom´s rom.
Can this be why it wont load?
I check the bootloader screen (thanks to Drag-On guide) and i says SPL-1.33. OliNex MicroP-Topaz (LED) v10
Do I need 1.83 to install offical 6.5?
I am using swedish rom since I am swedish.
Can anyone help me?

Try hard spl 1.83, then try re-flashing your 6.5
If it still won't flash, try a different rom. Download a cooked rom, Tess 4.0 for instance, and see if you can flash it. If you can, there is probably an error with the original rom. Tess is close to stock anyway, but faster and better

He he!
It worked! Thanks alot!
So now when I have done that, I will try to install a rom.
/ Bidde

yeah try hard spl 1.83 1st and then u'll be able to flash wm 6.5.
that's the only wayt to do it, otherwise it'll remain stuck at 18% everytime u try to flash the new rom

i have same problem now.
Please, where did you find offical 6.1 installation?
Could you pm link please.
I found on the http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Topaz_ROMs_Shipped my previosly ROM and recovered phone
Uh

The 6.1 I just downloaded it from the www.htc.com site.
Under the support you will find youre phone

exactly likeme ,, try to remove memory card

Error 270

I think i have a clou as for the well known error number 270.
I think its either the CID is not in vendor mode ore the rom has not got the right signature.
This is what happend to me and draw your own conclusion from it, but i hope it helps a little to understand and resolve the error ( well resolve it )
I bought an t-mobile compact 3 wich whas send by mail and got bricked on the way here. So .. i searched the net for a rom and found something i liked.
using a sd card i couldnt because it said somthing like image invalid signature.
later i found a factory rom update rom at the UK t-mobile. I extracted that and putt it on a sd card. Using the bootloader manually i run the image and updated perfectly.
So i whas happy i didnt bought a brick and whas workable.
Not happy with the factory rom ( tough it work charmingly and tomtom work even better then other roms) i seeked out something more eye appealing. having a p3600 bought with manila 2d for my hunny, whas nice to see so i seeked one for the artemis.
Tried updating it and got error 270. perhaps not the correct signature ?
Maybe...
So i got back at forum and read on sticky's and found a great utility called USPL .. ( Great thanks to the creator(s)of this app ) Supposedly the app open up the CID to super mode ore open vendor mode, wich then makes it possible to insert any rom with an RUU .
(i asume you'll know it means Rom Update Utility )
The screen on the phone went black and instead of the RUU included i ran the RUU of the Manilla 2d rom and ran past the 3% so that meand it will update the rom. The screen stayed black untill it rebooted and it came alive !! ( sorry for the dramatic effect )
the rom i didnt find to be stable it crashed when i turn up the volume when using tomtom it crashed when the alarm went , and it crashed several more times. ...
More roms to try anyway and got to pdaviet 6.1 wich i didnt like but run smoothly and crashed somewhere during alarms.
So i upgraded to 6.5 .. where i went messing with the uspl app and putted the roms in the same folder including the RUU.
So at 3 precent i got the error 270 , Huh rom has invalid signature ??? neh .. the rom said singed so i downloaded the uspl again and did it my old way run uspl till it opens it RUU cancel that one and run the RUU included with the rom i wandet to upload to the phone.
i now run FlyROM 5.0 Manilla WWE with the extra english keybord rom.
and so far so good, it runs nicely tomtom again i little slower then on the factory WM5 ( both installed on device btw ) Flyrom 5.0 WWE

Problem in installing Rom on HTC HD2

I have problem in my HTC HD2 that when I am trying to install new Cooked Rom it failed and stopped.
After this color screen it will convert to black with ruler that count from 0% to 100% it stopped at 0%.
I did update my rom before but by one EXE file called RUU_LEO_HTC_ARA 1.66.415.3
But If I try to install a new Rom that has 2 files called (LeoCustomRUU + ruu_signed) it will stop at 0% as I said.
I tried by several Rom that have 2 files But the same result.
Please Try to solve my problem, & Thanks.
