Hi,
I have searched the platform, but none of the questions seem to covermy problem. I do apologize in advance if I just did not see it and it is still there .
Here is my problem:
I have updated my HTC Touch HD to WM6.5 (eps65v2). After that my reception started to really suck. I reinstalled back to BlackStone_HTC_GER_1.14.407.3_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship (which was working fine before the update, and it even shows me Radio Rom 1.09) Still my reception is really bad. I hardly can make calls in closed rooms, GPRS/Edge is not available most of the time. It is not really related to the location. Sometimes I don't have ANY reception where I had good signal 5 minutes before...
Please help, since I don't want to throw my Blackstone out.
Here is my current config (Updated back to 6.5):
ROM: 1.14.EPS GER
Radio: 1.14.25.24
Protocoll: 52.64.25.34U
Thank you all very much in advance
the symptoms you list suggest your device has the wrong SPL for WM 6.5. did you read how-to and then prepare your device before flashing a WM 6.5 ROM? does your bootloader look like this Pic of Bootloader with HardSPL (ignore the Serial at the bottom)? (you get to bootloader mode by powering off the phone, then press-and-hold the down volume button and quickly tap your power button (do not press and hold the power button) if your bootloader does not appear like the one in the picture, then your phone hasn't been properly prepared .... goto the Dummies Flashing Guide and follow the steps to prep for your phone. if you have problems post your questions in the dummies thread and you'll get help much faster than opening a new thread. if you've completed all these steps, what does your bootloader say?
SPL Version wrong
Hi,
Thank you very much for replying so fast!
I checked, and you where right, it shows only SPL 1.14
I will work through the dummies guide and let you know the results.
Again thanks for your support...
no problem...
Updated SPL, but same issues
Hi,
I have now updated the SPL as described,and my tri-color screen looks exactly like the one above. I have also updated to a new WWE ROM, because the colors of mine were totally off.
This is my new configuration now:
OS: 5.2.23.45
ROM: 1.59.841.58 WWE
Radio: 1.14.25.24
Protocol: 52.64-25.34W
Still I experience really bad connection. I have turned 3g off, since it doesn't work with AT&T anyway...
Any ideas?
Thank you very much in advance...

if your colors are off there's still something wrong. did you get that corrected? post your bootloader details here. does your bootloader say SPL 1.56 OliNex? also did you use HardSPL or USPL?

These aren't the details you need to post. Go into bootloader by:
1. Turning off device
2. Holding down volume down and then pressing power on. (Continue to hold volume down)
3. You should be presented with a tri-colour screen, this is bootloader.
We require your SPL, if your using HSPL it should state SPL 1.56.Olinex, if USPL, it should state 1.54.USPL before flashing rom
Hi,
The Bootloader screen shows:
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.56.OliNex
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
The colors were messed up before I upgraded to 1.59
Does that help?
Thank you!

HSPL 1.14 is to be used for roms based pre/before 1.56
HSPL 1.56 is to be used for roms based on 1.56+
Yes, that'swhat I had. HSPL1.56 and ROM1.59
Now I seem to have bricked the thing completely.
I have tried to step back to what I had before, and flashed the Stock SPL 1.13
Now I cannot Flash anymore. Not even the new SPL.
Is therea tool to get that SPL back to a unsigned version?
Thank you..

you never mention the model number of your device. do you have the Touch HD T8282 (UK model that doesn't have the US 3G) or the Touch HD T8285 (Telstra model with the 850 US 3G band)? also, the stock SPL for the UK model is SPL 1.14 and the Telstra model is 1.15. never heard that there was a SPL 1.13.
i suggest slowing down with all these changes; i sense you're frustrated and trying different things without a little planning ahead of time (feel free to correct me if i'm off base here). at this point, you should consider posting your help requests in the HardSPL 1.56 thread. i suggest you start by posting your bootloader settings so we know your starting point. if you don't get an immediate response, be patient. those that can help will respond with suggestions.
Would agree with cortez.i, take a step back, don't panic and try to relax. If you can still get into bootloader your phone is not bricked and should be easily recovered.
Post your future posts in HSPL thread and we'll help you together to sort out your issue

Hi dudes,
I hope that someone can help me:
I have a Touch HD (maybe its a bit overkill too tell this )
I hád a virgin phone a couple of hours ago
information from the first screen (with the boot sound e.d.):
Original RUU_BlackStone_HTC_NLD_1.56.404.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship
r 1.13.25.24
g 52.62.25.34u
d 1.56.00.00
And the SPL Screen:
Blac 32M
SPL-1.15.0000
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
So what is the problem?
If i start the phone it "freeze" what means that you can only use the on/off button.
It freezes at the align screen.
I have multiple things allready tried:
1) Different SPL's
2) Different ROMS
3) Different Batteries
What should i do? (i'm almost sure that the hardware is working)
Kind Regards,
John
Hi John,
i noticed there from the output shown from your Bootloader screen it shows that you have spl version 1.15.0000. To upgrade to the ROM such as the one that you posted above, you need Hard-SPL 1.56 installed or 1.54.0000 USPL installed.
Regards.
EDIT: read this guide, it tells you how to upgrade to Hard-SPL 1.56 or USPL 1.54.0000. Once you upgrade to the required SPL, then you should have no problems flashing any of the latest custom ROMs.
the new output:
blac100 32mb
spl-1.56.Olinex
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
And then??
It still freeze..

Okay mate. Then in that case, I would advise you to install a stock rom, then install hard spl if needed and you should be good to go. You can revert back to a custom ROM after you have installed the stock ROM.
With all my pleasure..
But.. then i need to change Radio and SPL versions.
I don't know which version was the original..
It is a dutch device with no brand or sim-lock
Can you help me with that?

Yes certainly, I shall try.
From your first post, it shows you were using radio version 1.13.25.24. Do you have the original RUU_BlackStone_HTC_NLD_1.56.404.1_Radio_52.62.25.3. 4_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe file? If you deleted it then that's ok.
You can download a Stock ROM version for your phone from here, Try entering your phones S/N or IMEI number to see if your phone is eligible for an upgrade and then use that ROM and matching SPL. Once you have flashed back to the Stock ROM, the Radio is normally included and so you should now have radio 1.13.25.24 as depicted in the ROM name
Next, follow the rest of this guide (see bottom of post #1):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431217
Let me know how you get on with that Jay.
Best regards.
Well..
I have reflashed the blackstone:
d: 1.13.25.24
g 25.62.25.34u
d.1.56.00.00
and bootmode
blac100 32mb
spl-1.56.olinex
microp-blackstone.
Now i'm gonna start with your link @ post #1
Hopefully i'm lucky
is it a problem tht i have also a 1.15 USPL?
And is it a goog idea to bring this thing also down to 1.13?
Because i have now the funny green screen..
and it stil "freeze"
You need to give a little more detail. I'm not sure what you have done and what it is that you are trying to do. If you are now using this rom - RUU_BlackStone_HTC_NLD_1.56.404.1_Radio_52.62.25.3 . 4_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe, then you will need to use a 1.54.0000 spl I believe and that is why you have a green screen using spl 1.13.
When did this freeze first start happening? Did you try to flash your phone to the rom above, or was that the rom on your phone all along?
As Mastoid said, you need to read the Flashing guide and follow it step for step.
the first freezing start after my first try to flash the phone to a 6.5 custom ROM.
I will flash 1.54 back on the phone and tell you what happend

As this is related to rom flashing, please will you move this discussion to the Flashing Guide thread. I'll try to help you there.
i don't know for sure if this is 100% ROM related, but maybe it is a better idea to move this topic too that sub-forum.. Or maybe i can ask to the users there if they wan't to look at this topic..
My phone is still not responding to any key eccept the on/off button
i received a T-Mobile US Branded HD2 for free at a training event in NYC Monday. i jacked the phone up immediately when i got home in a attempt to flash the hspl for custom rom flashing. of course the hspl flash failed because of the new spl version so i then attempted to downgrade it with a older shipped rom using bepe's SSPL following his instructions correctly. as soon as the status bar appears on my pc, my hd2 prompts me asking to allow the application to go into bootloader. after touching yes, the hd2 screen turns black and stays black with the sspl ruu displaying a connectivity error.
ahhhhhhhhh! somebody help.
im guessing my spl is too new to downgrade?
In a word, yes (I think, might be wrong)...
Have you not read of the people flashing to the T-Mobile 2.x ROMs who can't downgrade their SPL if not using HSPL?
Don't know whether MTTY with an SD card flash would work but I wouldn't risk it
as I understand the s pl 2 issue, it seems theres no way to down grade it currently. I believe you can flash cooked roms with sspl.
do you have spl 2? boot to boot loader and check, cos it might be 1.6 and you can fix that one by flashing a lower stock rom that matches the vendor.(or gold carding, but gold card won't work on 2)
oh, regarding the connectivity error, try flash from a usb port directly on the motherboard (round the back)I get connectivity errors with hspl using ports in the front of the pc case.

no luck, spl 2.08.0000... cooked roms wont flash either even with SSPL
ahh well,I wouldn't worry too much, I predict we'll see hspl 2 before too long.
in the meantime im sure I've read theres a way to flash some things to spl 2.

sspl should work.
connect the leo normally with active sync, ie a booted running rom.
out should change to the sspl tricolor screen.
leave it too time out. pull the usb cable.plug it back in again, without doing anything to the leo..
it should change to usb. rerun sspl.
I'd similar situation, you've to install official ROM with lower version of SPL like version 1.48 then you can apply Hard SPL and it'll work.
To do it i used GoldCard method (installation using the SD card method).
My configuration:
HD2, TMOUS 2.10
What's the version of your ROM and if it's possible to post a screen capture of the "Software Information" page?
Good Luck
DON'T USE SSPL and HSPL on new 576/1024 GB devices.
There are (in 1.42) no support for 1024 chips.
New SSPL and HSPL (based on 2.08) will work. In development.

You and Bepe are the only ones that can fix it lol. I wonder why they changed the SPL for all of the T MO HD2's
i just jumped shiped from android to hd2 and my understanding so far is that there isnt a way to load custom roms on the US HD2? Is this correct?
Probably. But u can try Goldcard methon. Dont brick yours man.

Hi Vizag,
Since you had also a HD2, do you find the American HD2 (TMOU) faster than the 8585 model ?

Waiting for new hspl.....
yea, I love the phone but it def needs a custom rom lol. The US tmobile version also did not come with the tether app that htc said it would come with. But I was able to download it, but the bad part is when you tether the hd2 cant surf the web :*(
I am so glad I came across this thread. Give me the exact answers I was looking for.
I love custom rom's so i cant wait to flash one to this thing. Btw I love the phone. Everything is awesome!
btw does anyone know if transformers can be transferred off without deleting?

Hey all, i have some problems with radio. I checked all threads and didn't found anything on this1. I've done hspl or smth like that to 2.08.
The thing is about radio, currently i can't do further and i got white screen + green htc logo and stuck at it, as far as i know i need radio update.
I tried that, eventhough i'm stuck at 0%, the thing is i have NOT t-mobile as most ppl here have, i have htc hd2, it was bought in lithuania officially and i'm not sure which radio version or whateva i need or what i do wrong! Sry if i posted in wrong section or did smth wrong, anyway i need help! don't wanna brick my phone, just bought it few hours ago and can't use it

dk if it helps, but on htc site if i select rom to update and choose my serial it tells that this fits me:
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.48.479.1_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe
your hd2 is not unique; the majority have non-tmobile. actually there are many threads with your exact complaint.
but what you need to figure out is if you have hspl on it or not. you say you may have done it but then say 2.08 which seems more like spl.
so boot into bootloader, what does it say? then we can go from there!
2.08.HSPL, btw i found 1 user, he's from same country and city, propably got phone from lithuania too, he got in his sign: Radio v2.15.50.14 ;
can u check please if it's that radio ver?

If you boot into bootloader as the a ove post said you can check your SPL versiin this way. If you don't know how to do this just turn your HD2 off and then turn your HD2 back on but hd down the volume down button.The muticolor bootloader screen will come up. If you see SPL 2.08.0000 you have regular SPL. If you see SPL 2.08 HSPL then you have HSPL(Hard SPL) on your HD2. You should also se Cottula in the bootloader as well if you ha e HSPL.
You have a EU model HD2 so you can flash any radio version you want to flash and not brick your HD2. The issue of bricking a HD2 is only relavant to the T-Mobile(TMOUS) HD2. I suggest you flash radio version 2.15.50.14 it is the latest radio and the majority of poeple really like it.
Yay! downloaded that1, tried, and now it installed, and successfully! btw be4 that i installed magldr and it didn't worked cause was stuck, now it's loaded! gonna try wp7! yay! ty guys for fast answers!
Congrats. Enjoy!

Yeah MAGLDR requires a TMOUS compatible radio version to work. That is why you were having trouble before but gou have a TMOUS compatible radio version now so MAGLDR works. Hope you enjoy your HD2, and glad you got it working. I got your PM too by the way.

spl-2.00.1000 xe
heres what i have done so far. i task29 the device tried to flash radio to 2.15. i found that my spl had to be either updated or downgraded and i have tried to upgrade it and it sits at the htc scree at 0%. i also have tried flashing an official rom which will not take either. any help would be much appreciated thanx in advance
oops, that's a manufacturing test spl, and cant easily be changed.
In a nutshell, flash a rom with spl 2.02 ( go see the "tmous test and stock roms" thread, second in the list do NOT NOT NOT flash the first rom in the list if you have a tmous) and then find the version of hspl that has been edited to work with spl 2.02, use that to set spl 2.08 and then you should be good to go.
Dont just dive in, read THIS and THIS and if you decide you need a goldcard then send me your sd cards unique serial and an email address.
could you link me to the tmous test and stock roms? or tell me what section its under please and do you have yahoo or meebo skype anything? i need help baaaaad its a customers fone and was supposed to be done tonight would appreciate alot if you could help me get this done
its in the winmo tmobile section. If the phoen isnt a tmous, then you will possibly need a goldcard since those roms are tmous roms.
I cant help you step by step, its 3am and im away shortly, good luck tho, and don't be rash, thats how mistakes get made.
2.03?
all those rom links are down do you know where i could get a 2.03 rom from? seem that was what worked for one of our members.
