[Q] Stuck on white screen while booting up.

Hi guys, I've flashed MAGDLR 1.12 onto my HD2, and have had gingerbread on it for 2 weeks. Then, my screen suddenly turned white and stayed the same after reboot, even after re-flashing MAGDLR. It would not even boot into MAGDLR. However, I was able to enter the default bootloader via Vol-Down while booting. I have tried flashing a few official HTC roms, performing Task29, and downloading the official rom from HTC.com too.
I am currently running HSPL 2.08. Any advice?

Try re-flashing HSPL.

I'm having the exact same problem.
I have opened a thread with this question few hours ago
Is there someone who can help us?
@digital outcast
re-flashing hardspl did not make the slightest change... :S

I assume both of you have tried flashing back to a WinMo ROM right? Does that flash to it ok and provide the same end result (white screen)?

in my case, it doesn't even flash because when CustomRUU starts, and the process begins (everything normal), the indicator freezes at 0% until it gives a communication error and all process is aborted!

the indicator freezes at 0%

When you flashing WinMo? If not(if you flashing android), I think problem is with wrong radio

And you tried a task 29 beforehand? Do you have any antivirus / firewall software running that you can disable temporarily?

Hey there!
I've tried all the methods above indicated.
Flashed a new rom through sd - update failed
Flashed a stock 1.66 Wmo rom but white screen still appears as soon as phone is turned on
Can't downgrade HSPL to 1.42 or so...
Can't do Task 29...
What can I do?
Suggestions?!
Thank you!

Ditto, I have not tried the 1.66 Wmo rom though, will try that and MAGDLR 1.13 when I get back home later.
Anyone else who encountered this problem before? Thanks !

Can you go back to WINMO using LEOIMG.NBH and VOL.DOWN?
Can you boot into WINMO6.5 without problems?

Neither!
The update through HSPL is sucessfully completed, but when phone restarts, white screen appears immediately after...
I've also tried to flash other radios (the latest was installed) but the update fails everytime (through hspl).
I had MAGLDR 1.12 installed and it ran before booting the OS (android), but the white screens appears before that.
Damn!!!
Any ideas?

It actually looks like this when I try to flash a stock rom + radio over the SD card.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618084

[Q] HD2 Android install - radio flashing question

Hi there
Im struggling with my flashing ... oo er
Im following the guide to flash android to the hd2
I followed step one with hspl and got the We've hacked it message
Next stage is radio flash via Custom RUU
I run the RUU and the install hits 100% (only takes about 30seconds to flash not the ten minutes stated on the dialogue screen on the pc)
the problem is the phone reboots to the white screen with Green HTC logo and freezes at this point. It doesnt run a full reboot.
When I try to reflash the RUU fails.
Could this be a faulty radio image? If so can some one post a link to a mirror for the best radio for the HD2?
I will try the other suggestions of different usb ports etc.
BTW I am using the latest Win mobile Center and have the RUU running as administrater.
Many thanks

Hmmm, few questions........
What kind of HD2 do you have.. US, European??
What radio do you currently have?
What radio are you trying to flash?
Can you get to bootloader (3 coloured screen) by turning on while holding vol. down?

Can you enter Bootloader Mode and verify that your HardSPL install completed successfully and that you now have SPL-2.08.HSPL on the second line.
If that is ok then try flashing the Radio using the SD Card method as stated in my flashing guide (renaming the nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh copy to the root of your storage card and reboot into bootloader mode).
Mark.

Im confused now - I did the update again after flashing a stock rom via the sd card method. The radio updated and the rom started the self set up sequence.
I removed the battery - re ran hspl loaded fine,
confirmed its installed rebooted fine to rom rom.
powered off back into boot loader ran custom ruu - the progress bar ran to 100%. Phone rebooted and again is stuck at the green htc logo on the white backgroud with no radio details in the bottom left hand corner?
I re downloaded the file for the radio so ts wasnt corrupted.
Ill try the leoimg.nbh method see if that works.
WELL Thanks to the replies and starting AGAIN from scratch and updating the radio the sd card way Ive gotten it all working.
thanks for all the info.
Sometimes a little patience and a fresh pair of eyes so to speak - works wonders

What radio? Cos the symptoms sound like what happens when you load a 51 radio with a 576 enabled rom.... ie it hangs at RGD info screen without any RGD info showing.

HD2 kinda broken what can i do?

Hey XDA
Hope someone out there have got some good advice. We have some HD2s where i work and i have been sent one that is acting kinda weird.
I simply can not get it to flash a rom (_HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_S_HTC_DAN_3.14.403.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship) - we only use normal HTC roms. When i try to flash it nothing happens, it boots into the bootloader and just sits there at 0% until i disconnect the cable, if i dont it will sit there untill it runs out of battery. Tried a few times now and same result.
i have also just tried a restore, to see if its the internal flash rom that is broken and the restore also fails. My own HD2 restores in like a few seconds but this one just sits there again, like when i try to flash a rom to it.
So is it totally dead or is there something i should try?

Have you tried to use task29 (via computer) , then flash (via nbh) the htc rom?

hmm just tried task29 and it did nothing, it booted the phone to the bootloader but no progress screen did show up. Tried it again and the phone just shut off again after showing the bootloader for a few seconds.
beginning to think this phone is toast.
Gonna try a HSPL update later and just flash a non HTC rom to see if that works.

HSPL 2.08 & reflash original HTC ROM via PC USB.
Do you get any error codes from the flash utility ?
could be CID related but you should see error code.

Yes, trying it with HSPL seems like a good idea to me, too.
Because then you can also try other ROMs.

will try this stuff on monday - i just cba to do more work today
thx for the advice

Build a gold-card and flash from the SD slot. If that doesn't work, put it in a zip lock bag and then into the freezer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, boot the phone and try flashing again immediately in it's chilled state. If it get's ANY further, you have a bad overheating NAND and need a new main board.

got HSPL2.08 flashed and a Dutty 3.14 rom but phone refuses to reboot sometimes and boot just shows the white HTC background and does not show the radio/os versions in the bottom. So i am just gonna toss this one out, since its can not be serviced (supplier has gone bust).
But still havn't gotten any error codes from the phone or flash programs, other then "USB connection failed". So i think its nand is kinda broken now.

first, you can't run 3.14 roms on anything except spl 3.03.0000 or 3.03.hspl
Second it isn't booting because it almost certainly needs an updated radio, 2.15.50 for instance. You probably still have a 2.xx.51 from the original stock, and so wont show rgd screen till you change radio, won't run smoothly till you correct the spl with hspl4

Put phone into bootloader manually, don't use front mounted USB ports, be sure and update win mo dev center to latest ver ..... all the usual USB connection error advice. Trying another PC with a different windows variant often helps if its available.

hmm you sure? The dutty download page says -
Things to Know how about my ROMs:
* Radio 2.15 Recommended
* HSPL 2.08 Recommended
* HSPL 3.03 doesn't support 576 RAM enabled
But i'll try to flash a 3.03HSPL and find out what happens. I did flash 2.15.50.14 radio before i flashed the Dutty rom. But gonna give it one last try.

Have tried two pc's now, both running Win7 32bit - its all we have now.

Ahhh gitcha, then the dutty rom mustnt be 100% 3.14 rom (I didn't check) it must use a 2.x base to enable 576ram.
In which case, if stock roms don't flash but custom did, it could be stuck radio syndrome, which you can test for with (correct, get it using your serial from HTC.com) stock rom flash from sd card (4gb or smaller, fat32). Look out for "rsa radio fail" or similar on screen.
Edit, oh you said you flashed a radio, and that went ok?

yeah HSPL2.08, HSPL3.03 and Radio is flashing just fine. The roms i have tried also flashes perfect its just will not boot afterwards. I can usually do a hardreset on it and it will boot one time. If you then shut it off and try to turn it on again it fails with the white HTC screen again.
I am toally clueless on what is wrong with it, so gonna try to figure out if we have some kind of warrenty left on it and get it switched over to another one.

[Q]Help: is this HD2 dead?

First, sorry if I post the kind of question that has been already asked 1000 times, I'll understand if my post is deleted.
here is the story: I still have an HD2, but got a Sensation almost one year ago.
Now my HD2 is still WinMo 6.5 with Android from the SD card.
Yesterday, one of my pupils (yes, I'm a teacher, and my pupils know I'm into smartphones....!) gave me his HD2 because his father kinda bricked it.
I haven't been using my HD2 or reading XDA HD2 section or a long time (I'm too busy flashing my Sensation, so reading Sensation threads ), but I thought I could give it a try to unbrick it, I'm not a noob after all (selfish guy!!!!!!!!!)
I think this HD2 was somehow bricked while trying to install Android into NAND, or installing MAGDLR, as far as my pupil can tell from his dad
So this Sensation can't boot and has this, written in the 3 colours screen
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.00 8G XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
icroP(TOUCH) 0x40
Upgrade ROM code error
Please try again
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Here is the state I had this HD2, unable to boot, just able to get into bootloader with the message above.
I tried to flash latest Dutty ROM (because I was using Dutty creme of the creme at my HD2 time!)
=> through USB, flash freezes sometimes at 2%, sometimes 75%
=> through SD card: it flashes, says it's successful, but the device doesn't boot, back to three colors screen, or white screen with error message if trying to boot normally
I tried task29: full of errors, not better after flashing a ROM
I tried flashing a shipped "official" ROM => same as custom ROM, says success, flashed through SD card, but never boots to something else than 3 colors screen..
I tried factory reset, said successful, but still no boot!!
I tried flashing a Radio ROM=> flash successful, but still no boot
I tried flashing HSPL again, 2.08 and previous versions: it flashes OK, can see the changes in three colours screen, but no success flashing a ROM after
I noticed that sometimes, this HD2 vibrates 7 times quickly in a row, which my own HD2 had never done, and I suppose it's a very bad signal
I'm not a noob at all, but really can't follow every thread, and tried the search function with no real luck.
Is this HD2 definitly bricked? Is there something I can do?
Sorry again to seem so noob, I would have flammed someone posting like me, when I was following HD2 development everyday, before having my Sensation (and a Moto Defy for my wife)

see the line ''SPL-2.08.00 8G XE'' (you actually mean 2.08.0000) well teh .0000 tells you its NOT hspl, its a stock spl, so nothing will flash.
run hspl 2,3 or 4 and choose ''2.08.hspl''. Flashing, task29, magldr, all that will now flash.

THANKS!
how stupide I am (or too long away from WinMo)
I had tried hspl2 that was unable to do the job, hspl4 did it
So now I have spl 2.08.hspl
...but face other problem:
task29 fails: it launches OK but my HD2 disconnects from USB as soon as task29 starts its process
if I try to flash a custom ROM (the dutty one my own HD2 is still using), via usb, same, usb disconnects (it wasn't before I flashes hspl 2.08)
If I try flashing as a LEOIMG with microSD, it feezes at about 2/3 of the process
trying to flash a shipped ROM leads to errors, back to three colors screen with "Upgrade ROM code error Please try again"
...not to mention each time it replaces the hspl by stock spl
Any idea?

don't run flashes from running winmo, enter bootloader manually, when serial --> usb, run your flash/task29 or whatever. (Gorget about task29, it isnt necessary)
alternatively, if you do run it from running winmo, then once the phone has restarted and the usb has timed out, simply run teh flash program again, and dont touch teh phone, since it will now be in bootloader, and my above note takes over.
if I try to flash a custom ROM (the dutty one my own HD2 is still using), via usb, same, usb disconnects (it wasn't before I flashes hspl 2.08)

because that's the way to remove hspl, , flash a stock rom from sd. Step 1 of sd flashing is the spl gets flashed, removing hspl, the phone then restarts and tries to flash the stock rom, but now that hspl has gone it fails, since you aren't using the correct stock rom for that particular phone.
Try this, get the stock 3.14 rom ( filename will be RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship )
EDIT - you dont have a tmous, right? if you do, dont do this!)
phone into bootloader
use hspl4 to set 3.03.hspl
phone into bootloader
flash the 3.14 rom over usb.
report back.

Man, I'm on the good way!
3.03.hspl seems to be the key, when 20.8hspl wasn't
While the stock 3.14 ROM finished to download, I could run a Task29 till the end, no more USB disconnecting.
Crossing fingers!
I'll edit this post once I've tried to flash the stock 3.14 ROM
Huge thanks to you !!!!

2.x spl is not a stock spl for regular hd2's, only tmous, so whilst it does work, it does introduce the odd problem. for example you cant sd flash stock roms with 1.x versions when you are currently on 2.x.
SO, with a regular hd2, any time you wanna return to stock or are having flashing troubles of some kind, it is always worth using hspl.exe (2,3 or 4 , doesnt matter) to remove the 2.x spl/hspl.
For me, I always go back to 1.66.0000 using hspl2 before i even try to flash a stock rom. Since i choose a 0000 ending, it will be updated as required by the stock rom.
Fingers crossed it helped.

0% stuck problem

Hello there xda community,
I have a problem regarding my HTC Blackstone. I have been flashing lots of ROMs and I know how it works. Once I decided to test an Android build for it by flashing a <1.56 Olinex SPL and I did downgrade it. But then I can`t flash it back to HSPL 1.56 Olinex, it gets stuck on 0%. I have tried the SSPL and it did succeed, so I continued my test. Did the Task 29 but it got stuck on 0% again when I tried the Task 32. I got into bootloader to see if 1.56 Olinex SPL was still installed on my phone but suddenly it changed to 1.15.0000 SPL stock. Now I don`t have WM installed, due to Task 29, I have the stock SPL on which I can` install the stock ROM for my HTC. I tried flashing a ROM with the SD card, but when it gets into the bootloader it gets stuck on the "Loading..." screen. I also tried the USPL GUI by crackwhore but it can`t detect the drivers even though I installed the drivers provided with the USPL GUI. Please, I am desperate in trying to fix this, help me out!

Same problem here, can't flash anything, neighter stock ROM, it goes to 4% and gives me Invalid vendor ID error.
I have SPL 1.56
Tried everything but no luck.
(flashed a new ROM,did a task29 after and from 1.56 Olinex SPL went to 1.56. I can't HSPL, USPL, flash back original ROM or any other Custom ROM, neighter downgrade SPL)
