I have a t-mobil wing that i am trying to flash the original t-mobil ruu by way of the SD. I have tried everything I can think of but when i do the soft reset and hold the camera button it skips past the searching for sd and goes straight to the bootloader screen. I would flash using the usb but the port seems to have gone bad. I am returning it but would like it to have the origanal rom on there so they don't charge me for a new phone. ANY IDEA's?
Solution found: Was using a 4gb mico sd went and got a 1gb micro sd worked like a charm
You almost had it
You have to press the camera button and the comm manager button together, then perform a reset.
Follow directions on screen! (Press volume button down)

sorry 4 posting didnt read thru
I had the same problem flashing to Open - touch 4.0 micro. I tried probably 20 times with a 4 gig and it just jumped right past the searching for sd card. I tried a 512mb sd card from my nextel phone and first try. Oh and I didn't have to hold the com button. Only the camera when soft resetting.
Thanks alot for the help. You saved me from going nuts.
how u did that? i mean.. files need some special name or something? pls assist me

when i use RUU it comes up with this error and stops at 4% of the instalation.
when i try to flash the .nbh (any) file from the phone by holding the camera button when turning on, Herald freezes on the tricolor (red green blue) screen. it says.
IPL 4.17.0001
SPL 4.70.Yang
Dont know what to do, i must have done something wrong
Which ROMs have you tried? Some ROMs can only be flashed from an SD card because even the HardSPL requires at least 50mb (51200kb) to flash through ActiveSync.
be happy... when it shows 4.70.yang....
you can flash any rom.... but not one with wrong size..
hihihi
I had the same problem when i tried flashing a rom with herald uspl when it was actually supposed to be installed on sd. If it is meant to be installed by sd you need to fat 32 format your sd card and put nothing but the .nbh file on there, put it in your phone and then hold down the camera button and use your stylus to push the soft reset while still holding the cam button. It should then recognize the rom and you will be able to start flashing. If it just sits at the bootloader screen (rainbow screen) dont freak out just reset your device again, if that happens you may have a corrupt file.
Was this rom by chance open touch 4.0 micro? Because I had that problem also and I cannot figure it out.
I've tried Just2Clean and Open Touch v4.0 WM 6.1 both thru RUU and from SD card. had no luck in both cases. i really wanna have J2C tho.
Gonna try formating the SD and will report back. Regards
J2C has to be done through the SD card. Like armyboi4id said, fFormat the card to FAT32, place the HERAIMG.nbh on the SD card, press and hold the camera button and then press the soft reset with the stylus. When it comes up to press something to flash, press the volume down key. And just wait until it says that it's done.
ok, i've got J2C image on the sd card and nothing else. it is fat32, i press the camera button, reset it, then the tricolor screen. and that is it.
now i got two questions jsut to be sure. when do i release the camera button? and how long do i have to wait before the tricolor screen changes to anything else?

what's the correct size?
release the camera button when the bootloader comes up. it should recognize the sd card and .nbh almost immediately and go to a white screen.
Just hold the camera button until you see it saying "reading."
Again, like armyboi4id said.
The correct size is 50mb (51200kb) as I said.
aight, i reverted back to shipped wm6 and then flashed Open Touch 4.0 without Hard SPLing the device and it worked. maybe i wasnt supposed to hardspl it in the first place lol.
Thanks a lot for all the replies and all your help guys
Ive just installed V10.2 ROM and im stuck on the Sony Ercisson Screen...what now?
Hard reset?
How? Thats not the little reset button on the back i guess?
OK, found procedure for hard reset. BRB...
You can always do a reflash with microsd method so don't worry

Have you hardSPL'd your phone before?
If not you will have to flash a generic rom via microSD method (or put your phone into boot loader mode and connect via usb) and then hard spl your phone.
If you have already hardSPL'd your phone, reflash the rom using microSD method.
EDIT: from http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/?tag=xperia_guide_roms
Recovering from a bad flash
If you have forgotten to hardspl your x1 before flashing a rom or are getting an error when attempting to flash a rom (260-262) and can not get your x1 to boot then this might help:
1. Take the MicroSD card out of your phone and put it in to a MicroSD to SD card converter and insert it to your card reader.
2. Format the MicroSD card in to FAT32 format.
3. Download this ROM
4. Extract the .ZIP file and rename the .NBH file to 'kovsimg.nbh'
4. Copy this file to the freshly formatted MicroSD card (VISTA OR XP THIS DOESNT MATTER FOR THIS)
5. Take the memory card out of your PC/Laptop and place it back in to your Xperia
6. Remove the battery and replace it after 5 seconds. (dont replace the back cover)
7. The press the Volume Down key located on the right hand side of the phone and the power key keep them both pressed and then with the stylus press and hold down the reset button for three seconds.
8. You will then be presented with a Tri-Colour screen to begin with then the bootloader will load the kovsimg.nbh file.
9. Once loaded follow the on-screen instructions and your done, be patient the process does take a while about 10mins in total, BUT DO ENSURE YOU HAVE YOUR PHONE ON CHARGE, you dont want the power to die on you half way through, it would just be a waste of time.
N.B. HARD-SPL WILL ONLY LOAD ONCE YOU HAVE A WORKING IMAGE ON THE PHONE!!!! FROM THE SPL 0.72.0000 version.
awww man, x1fan, YOU'RE the one who "broke" it?!
let me know of the instructions above helped you out...
Cheers for all your help with this guys, all it needed in the end was a hard reset and some time to warm up i think, all is good as gold now..apart from the fact that it goes to xpanel screen prior to loading the home screen but the procedure above worked a treat so thank you all....YET AGAIN lol
Hi, All
It has been more then a few days trying to remove HSPL from my HD2. Numerous post & even watch a Youtube video to make sure I was doing everything right & still no success.
I really need to get this over and done with as I am posting the phone tomorrow.
I was wondering if anyone could walk me through on how to create a Gold Card & flash my HD2 back to Stock. Even if I have to pay for this I will.
My HD2 is a Sim Free Non Branded UK spec Phone
Please help.
Thanks

1. you download the stock rom of your choice (Stock Roms include Radio)
2. Copy the ruu_signed.nbh file to your storage Root and rename to LEOIMG.nbh
3. Fire Up your Leo by pressing power on+vol down untill bootloader comes
4. if all goes well it will ask you to press power on to flash your device
5. do what it says
when finished hard reset (by pressing red button in back or power on+vol up+vol down)
then you should be fine and on your boring stock way again

Hi,
I have already tried that & tried using different memory cards/different roms, different Format methods etc . But still can't get into Bootloader screen.
This is the reason I posted this thread.
Thanks

youve been given the same answer now in several threads. Its probably time to give us more information. because the answer we have all given you is the only way to remove hspl.
So, since you keep saying it wont work, it can only be either
1 a problem with the sd card
2 a problem with the sd card socket on your phone
or
3 a problem with the leoimg.nbh image you are using.
so, question 1 - is your phone rom locked to the provider? (can you download roms from the htc website using your correct serial number?)
question 2 - when you are formatting teh sd card, are you formatting it inside the phone or in your pc?
Closed - duplicate thread.

Hello all i have bought a new HTC HD2 phone 3 weeks ago and my friend put a new rom on it for me.
Everything was working fine till i put some foto's and music on the storage card, and i wanted to look and listen to them put suddenly i had nothing else on the storage card, everything was deleted.
And everytime when i turn my phone on i got a popup menu saying that i have to format the storage card, and my pc does not recconize anymore the disc drive, before it worked always perfectly.
So i formatted the starage card but the problem still exists.
I am realy very sad now and this is my last helpline, so i hope somebody can help me here with my problem.
Thanks already.
And i hope someone will have an answer for me.
Greetings Edwin

Have you tried to re-install the rom or install another?
Can transfer to phone via blue tooth or network considering your SD card isn't working.
try a hard reset mate might do the trick, it will just reset the phone to when the ROM was first put on the phone, restart the device before it boots push down volume up & down at the same time just follow instructions
i also got this problem with my memory card
phone issue?

Try bringing up MAGLDR by turn your HD2 off and then turn it back on but keep the power(end) button down and MAGLDR will come up then use hour volume up and down button to to scroll through the options. There is a recovery option select it and it will do what is equal to a hard reset of the Andriod on your phone. If this does not work try reflashing the Andriod ROM if still no Chang try another Andriod ROM. If still no dice out your Pbone into bootloader by turning it off and then teurning it back on but hold the volume down button when you tap the power button and keep holing it down until bootloader comes up once it is up plug your USB ito the computer and phone and wait until serial changes to USB in the white bar at the bottom of the screen and then flash a custom Windows Mobile ROM to your HD2. I say custom cause a official rom will wipe MAGLDR from your phone. Do not flash a official rom, especially don't flash a official ROM from your SD card as it will take wipe MAGLDR and revert your HSPL to SPL and then you will be back to complete stick and square one.

Thanks! It works now!
Hi there, I know Im going to get shot down in flames (and probably rightly so), but I cant find a definative step by step guide on this site for returning to Windows Mobile 6.5 from Windows Phone 7. I have tried a load of search queries and for some reason I cant get anything that takes it through step by step and offers any links for any downloads I might need. I must be just typing the wrong things or looking in the wrong place.
When I installed Windows 7 I found great step by step guides that worked well but I can find what I need this time.
I know I am obviously being an idiot but could someone please reply with a link to a step by step idiot proof guide to getting my phone back to WM6.5 from WP7. Thanks chaps.
Im selling the phone which is why I want to revert it back so its as an HD2 would normally be.
Power off phone. Power on with holding power and vol down until you get to the tri color screen. Flash your WM 6.5 ROM of choice. Any custom or compatible stock will do the job.
What he said, get to the "rainbow screen" bu holding down volume and power and attempt to flash your desired ROM from your PC.

Ok, but where do I find a stock ROM?
Search the forum you will find the link...
Turn the phone off. Turn the phone on and keep holding volume down and power button untill you get to rainbow screen. Now run the rom software on your pc and follow the prompts. Download the factory roms from htc.com (they want your serial number-its under the battery so is the IMEI, t-mobile (they want your IMEI number), if outside USA get rom from provider site or search the forums here for custom roms.
To clear up something. It is NOT nessesary to flash a stock ROM. Amy custom ROM will also do the job. Tried personally by me a month ago when my battery died a painfull death
Is it the same way if you want to go back to Android? Or do you need to flash winmo 6.5 first?
Hard Reset doesn't work even.
While reverting to WM 6.5 the ROM update happened but after 100% complete the device shut down and now its not starting, even tryied to hard reset.
What should i do now?
I flashed my phone to W7, did not like it and went back to WM6.5. I was running Android from SD card prior to W7, now back to WM6.5 and cannot run Android from SD card anymore, I believe it is a HSPL problem, I like the ROM I am running now, just want to be able to use Android from SD card, your thoughts? thanks in advance!

You have to reformat your SD card. WP7 formats your SD card with RAID format and you have to get it off your SD card. You xancdoca search to find formatting software that can remove the RAID format or buy a cheap micro SD to mini SD card adaptor. Putcyour SD card in the adaptor and then the adaptor in a digital camera and format it with the camera. Then format it with the Windows or some other format software with Fat 32. This will fix your problem.
