how did you uninstall hard spl in first place...
by putting back original spl
What error you get when you hard spl?
it stays on 0% and never move then it asks me to make a recover
1. Unlock your polaris
2. Than Hard-spl your device
PS: Only use the hard spl in the link provided. Disable your antivirus before procedure.
this might work.
thanks at first
but the first link cant be downloaded
and i think it is just an earlier version of hard spl 2.0
so i think it wont be usefull
From what I've read on a while ago on XDA, if your rom flash progress hangs in the middle of the process, it may be because of the fact that your current radio is too new for your 'old', original rom. You should try to flash an earlier radio before you flash the complete original (6.0?) rom.
And if you get it flash half of your rom, you probably didn't remove HardSPL, but correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not that familiar with it.
pola100

As I recall, the figures above indicate that you do have the original SPL. You should try to flash an original rom (if you don't have one, i have a dutch one here (wm6.0). If that doesn't work you should try to flash hardspl (hold the camera button while softresetting to enter bootloader) ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351964 ) and then try to flash a newer rom.
Where are you from?
Btw. I forgot to tell you that you need to flash an old radio too if you're going to flash the original rom. (if you don't have one already).
And when you have hardspl on your device, it'd be wise to flash a rom which include a radio.
I'll be away for a couple of hours, so I've put the original (dutch WM6.0) rom (incl. the original spl, but I think (dont know for sure) you need hardspl2.0 just to flash anything.) online here, let me know if your figured it out.
well thank you for all the help
but i am sadly informing it didnt work if the problem is the radio the i just need to flash another one .
it is just i cant or i dont know the right method to flash the necessary radio
would any one please tell how to flash radio from the boot loader when i dont have hard spl
Maybe a stupid question, but why can't you flash hardspl2? And do you have an unlocked device? You don't live in the Netherlands by any chance right?
why I can't flash hard spl 2 ?
actually I don't know
maybe because I am stuck in the boot loader
and sadly I am living in Saudi Arabia so we don't have much programmers around here nor people who have PDA
that's why I can't find someone to help
Can you describe exactly what you do step by step on your pc and pda and how your hardware is connected?
update: and tell me what messages are on your screen and if you get any errors
well first i connect usb so the pda directly starts boot loader (the screen with three colours)
after that whatever (ROMUpdateUtility.exe) i use the installing stops to give me this messege:
the rom update utility has encountered communication errors during the update process . the program will guide you step by step to recover from the errors so you can continue with the update.
this happens with every rom i tried including the har spl exept for the original rom it advance untill 38% then stops and give me the same messege.
if i try the (step by step ) process it ends up the same way .
anyway what i understand that my problem will end once i put (hard spl)
or if flashed another radio all i need to know is how to do either of them from the boot loader.
i have been so needy but sorry for that i am just sad about my pda i like it alot
I dont think it changes anything, but you do keep the camera button pressed while softresetting your device to get into the bootloader?
Usually your device only gets to the bootloader when you do that, but i can imagine that when your rom update failed and the device cannot boot a rom, it stays in the bootloader, but not in flash mode? Worth a try..
Tell me what appear in your PDA screen during boot. I want to know the information on the first screen like below:
R:
G:
D:
These information usually appear on the right bottom corner or your screen when you boot your device.
I am trying to install a a new rom on my Leo, I sync my device then run SSPL_RUU it starts fine then it puts my Leo into Boot mode then it says " ERROR (206): CONNECTION
The update Utlilty cannot connect to you PDA,Please check that between the PC and your PDA Phone" your USB cradle/cable is connected properly" I have tried anothe USB port but still the same thing, the PC and Loe do connect as I have just synced them so I don't understand the problem, I am running windows 7....
try :
on the htc :
Start
setting
other
USB to PC
and enable faster data sync...
hope that help you.
Thank you I will try that now and will update in a few minutes..
NO still no good same thing again, it's a pain as it keeps leaving my phone in bootloader mode so I have to keep removing the battery...

Hi
Step 1: Right click on SSPL and "run as administrator" it will be do the job.
If you get an error then Disconnect the cable and reconnect then run the Step 1 again.
Good luck
Thank you I will try that now..
It didn't work I did it twice but still the same, I am at my wits end with this arghhh....

If you use a USB Hub then try use the usb port from the motherboard.
OR
Try to Install HSPL first. then Install any roms with Custom ruu. Please read the thread before you use them. They all explained here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
Good luck
1) To install this HSPL there must be SPL 1.42.0000 on your device.
Otherwise the installation will fail!
To check your SPL version, hold the Volume Down button and do a reset.
It is possible to downgrade to this SPL, by just flashing to an Official ROM
with this SPL version.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For instance my is SPL 1.42.6666 and I have same problem.
Troubleshooting:
* I have SPL 1.42.666 on the device.... !!!! WAIT !!!! SPL 1.42.6666 is not the version of the SPL on your device!... it is the SSPL version. Most likely you have the needed 1.42.0000 SPL on the device, just try to install this HSPL if you need it. Don't worry, if there is not the right SPL on the device, then u will get an error message, but nothing will happen to your device

I had same kind of problem, I also run windows 7 I simply swaped to a different usb plug and then it worked fine. I was useing the plugs on the frount of pc's case so I wonder if the internal cable has a small problem or somthing as all other things work fine from that plug.
Hope that may help you.
Imanaged to get HSPL on my device and I manged to flash the rom to this one " Touch-IT Black Leo HD2 - updated " and it seems really good, the question I would like to ask now is how do I put the original rom back should I need to for warrenty issues? also does this mean that I can now use all the other roms that are on here? and is there a rom that anyone would highly recomend? Thanks for all the help that has been given to me, this really is a great forum with really helpful people...

Wel done
If you want to uninstall the HSPL then follow this
Uninstallation
Only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from SD card.
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button.
Recommend any roms is not easy because it depends your usage pattern. Therefore read more in the LEO threads before you choose to download any rom.
Now you have HSPL therefore you can install any rom from here
Good luck
ALWAYS USE SEARCH FUNCTION HERE AND YOU WILL FIND ANSWERS.
Thank you for explaining everything in a way that I can understand, I am not very techy so understanding exactly what to do when written is very important so thanks again..
Can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong. I'm trying to flash a ROM but every time it goes to the HTC screen and stays at 0%. I've read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614 and i installed hspl. I got the "we hacked it" message so i assume i did it correctly. Is there something else im missing?
I noticed when I flashed from stock to dutty I did it through active sync and not through micro sd card method. Try flashing from a computer
I have been using a computer
reboot into bootloader (power button plus both volume keys) and check to make sure your spl says hspl after the number
what rom are you trying to flash
Reflash the SPL and make sure you select 2.08 HSPL, and not the 2.08.000 SPL because you already have it installed. As the other poster stated, confirm by going into the bootloader and seeing if 'HSPL' comes after the numeric info.
-signed, a Pats fan
Ok i got it. I didn't select the 2.08.hspl the first time. Thanks for the help

haha, I did the same thing when I got my HD2. The tutorial wasn't clear as to which SPL to choose and I chose the wrong one by accident .
No problem.
That seems to be the common little stumbling block for US HD2 first-time flashers.
Is that option there if you want to change it back to the original spl so you can flash an official ROM?
You don't have to flash it back to stock hspl to flash a stock rom but it is there so after you flash to stock you can relock that way if you have to get the device warrantied out there isn't anything there that would void the warranty.
Can anyone help me please... I'm trying to upgrade the rom to the latest HTC HD2 rom for O2. I connect the phone via USB, sync it and then run the RUU program from HTCs website. The phone starts the process and boots the phone to the 4 colour screen and then to the black HTC progress screen and then it hangs on 0% for a few minutes until the utility finally tells me its lost connection with the phone (Error 262). I've done soft resets and hard resets. Disabled firewalls. Tried on another machine. Even ran the utility under XP SP3 compatibility. Still no joy. Can anyone help?? Thanks
Sounds like you might have a bad USB cable or that you are having timing out problems. First forget about the ActiveSync. All ActiveSynce does is help insure hour HD2 is ready to be flash by checking the battery level and such. Power your HD2 on but hold the volume down button down while powering on. When you see the tri color bootloader screen connect hour USB cable and wait for the Serial in the white bar of bootloader to change to USB and then right click the RUU of the ROM and select run as administrator. If this still does not work I would try another USB cable.

could it have anything to do with the phone being locked to O2... its the latest ROM for O2 that I'm trying to install.

hmm....if you are trying to flash stock rom which is not intended for your device, you need HSPL or Gold card.
There are threads in Windows Mobile 6.5 section that will guide you on installing HSPL or making a Gold Card.
Good luck

Well here's the thing, my phone is locked to O2. I'm trying to install the latest ROM from HTCs website for O2 customers. For the life of me I cant get it to install. I did install HSPL a few months ago when I tried to run Android from the SD card. That didnt work either. Like I say, I've done a hard reset. Could the HSPL thing be causing an issue. How do I get rid of it.
I hate being a noob sometimes!!

To get rid of HSPL you just have to run the HSPL Utility avain and choose the correct SPL version for your ROM when it asks what version you want to flash. Remember HSPL has the stock SPL versions to, click on the link in my sig to download HSPL 4. Hint thecstock SPL versions all have four zeros at fhe end and the HSPL version do not.
You said you are getting error 262, this usually means you don't have the right SPL or HSPL one of the two atleast that is if I remember correctly. What ROM are you trying to flash and what does it say in bootloader right now?

Hi... Been away so only just got this reply.
The rom I'm trying to install is a stock rom update from the HTC website:
O2 (UK): 3.14.206.1
For the record, my phone is an O2 phone.
As for Bootloader? It currently says:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.0000 8G XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x40
Hope that helps. Really bugging the arse off me this is.
get hspl2,
put phone into bootloader manually first and connect usb lead
(thats why it was timing out on you ((error 262)) because the connection takes too long to reconnect when it reboots from winmo into bootloader, , if you do it yourself first, that solves this error 99% of the time.)
when 'serial' changes to 'usb' run hspl2, choose 1.66.0000 (i recommend this because 2.08.0000, whilst stock, is a tmous stock, so 'may' give problems, , totally unconfirmed, but i had issues recently removing android/magldr whilst spl was 2.08.0000, i switched to 1.66.0000 and it worked straight away, i have a slight hunch that spl 2 doesnt like to be downgraded in some circumstances, , if you preffer you could use hspl4 and go straight for 3.03.0000, since that is whjat your 3.14 rom will install anyway when you flash it)
when it reboots saying its done, immediately hold voldown to re-enter bootloader
when serial changes to usb, run your 3.14.exe

Ignore that..
Mate - you're a genius. Followed your instructions and it worked like a charm.
Cheers pal. You saved my brain
Erm, not sure how much more basic i can make it. (Ignore my descriptions, just follow the steps)
Power off, hold voldown,power on keeping voldown held,, see multi striped coloured screen, that's bootloader, you can flash from this screen.
First you should try without bothering to change the spl.
Enter bootloader and connect USB, run the 3.14 you downloaded. That's it.
If it doesn't work, try changing spl as in my previous post by entering bootloader, and instead of running the 3.14 you run hspl instead.
As for writing a guide, you already read the various "how to flash.." guides (there are several) and watched the (also several) YouTube guides before you even started this thread,,, didn't you? Didn't you?? If not then shame on you!
Post back and ill check tomorrow.
My Leo start to restart or crash , in the last months, and some time as grafical problem wrong color and flashing some time problem at boot! Now don't boot at all!
first, at the moment of it stop on device was:
HSPL 2.08
CLK and CRW
some CM7 build!
radio 2.13.50.xx version
The Leo was discharged, and i as some trouble to restart it attached to the charger
but finally it boot, then was discharged and never boot up!
I have put to charge but it freeze after some time (botton back light on and red led on if i disconnect to charger) so i have try to charge it on boot screen, tricolor )
I have try after i was charged everything without success !
The only thing i can access is Tricolor boot screen whit HSPL 2.08
when i try to boot only white screen!
Task 29 - fail (270 error) from HD2 toolkit, from task29.exe and from mtty
Flash 1.66 and 3.14 Original HTC ITA rom from SD, fail at radio!
i have try task 2a, task 28 as well task 29. then flash from sd original htc rom, same fail !
Flashing clk, magldr. or HSPL 2 fail!
Custom 6.5 rom, from sd go until finish but on reboot, as usual white screen!
So i have try flashing radio 2.xx.51 and 2.xx.50 but fail at end.
I have also try flashing custom rom, 6.5 and android from pc, but obviously no way!
The only way to remove clk is from sd HTC flash, and is possible is this the problem?
Some one can help me to try recover or understand what is happen to my Leo??
(yes is bricked probably ......but what? )
Thanks

Please explain to me how this is related to "Android NAND Development" ?
And once that is done, would you like to calm down and use a better translator as from what you just posted above, i seem to make out nothing other than the fact English is not your native language.
All I know is:
- make sure you have the latest OFFICIAL ROM for your device
- flash it via SD
- flashing an original ROM from the SD if you have HSPL and a custom ROM will cause the process to reboot at some point; this is normal, and the update process should continue (you write that it fails on radio, but you didn't mention what exactly happens)
If flashing an original ROM doesn't work, then I'd wager your HD2 is busted.
In what way are you developing for HD2 NAND ROMs? Also, your device is not bricked if you can access the tricolour bootloader. The post above pretty much sums up any useful info I could give.
If your HD2 gives short 7 vibrates, its time for replacement. thats a panic vibrate by the processor. one of your chips is on its way out. this should be connected to temperature as well. keep it cool and without power for few hours, and it mught revive. but just for time being. it might worsen with time.
and please better translator.
Oh please, sorry for my English !
I do my best to try to make me understand!
Here is an International forum and here we all speak English!
have you ever tried to translate from English into Italian? is almost incomprehensible, anyway if someone does it, I try to do everything possible to understand him, and answer !
comfortable life to have all the information in their native language huh?
you know what ?, we Italians are so uncivilized, that where I work in IT department of a large company,
with Indian colleagues, who deal with Unix, we communicate on English! Find the same in other countries.....

1-Leo don't boot OS
2-Leo go on BootLoader (HSPL2.08)
3-Flash from SD , nbh extracted from original HTC_Leo_update. FAIL!
4-Overwrite HSPL, whit Other HSPL version or respective SPL (2.08) FAIL
5-mtty (bootloader commands) Task 29, Task 28, Task 2a, execute but not solving the problem, maybe is not nand format or bad block related....
Can you please say something different from the fact that Leo does not go?, like spl code to investigate what kind of hardware fault?
