Everything you need to know is in the Blackstone ROM development forum.
This is invaluable : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377 if you are new to it all. Follow it and it will be easy.

I used the above link to cRaCKwHoRe's guide, and flashed NRGZ28's Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524032, I never bothered checking radio etc and it works like a dream, wm 6.5 rom and super fast.
Cant impress upon you how important that guide is, I couldn't have done it without it, and Im regularly updating now....happy flashing!

tnx for the help!

Question about flashing the HTC Blackstone
Hello Everyone
I have a htc touch hd like follow
ROOM ..............1.14.405.0 (21010) WWE
Radio................1.09.25.14
Protocol.............52.49a.25.26U
I bought my phone unlocked. My question is when I going to flashing my mobile I will lose the unlocked. For example Im just need put into the phone the sim card for the country to syncronize and works awesome. Something could happening with that stuff?
Thank you
No, you should not lose your "unlocked" state. You WILL lose all the data on phone.
But that is also stated on many other posts...

Read this guide and the wiki. Both should answer all your questions!!
Flashing a phone is similar to hard resetting it. All data will be lost on phone, but you will have a new OS, i.e. a new rom

Rom Error 244

HI guys i am using hd am facing problem while update the rom to 6.5 while update rom the error like this:
sqtL-BMCF5567-HUEbc568-TPRD./01*
plz tell me what is the problem?
i am first time doing this process
plz tell me step by step process i am very thank full to u.
hello guys any buddy help me..................for this situation plz plz plz
Hi there,
According to the diagnosis list of error codes (found here), Error 244 means the following:
You have used the wrong RUU to do the upgrade. RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the device. Make sure you use the appropriate RUU tool to upgrade. This can also be caused by a mismatch between the CID of the rom you trying to flash and your device.
Please follow this guide and read it carefully before attempting again.
Thank You very much boss..........for giving me such a important time,
but, my SPL-1.14.0liNex
so how can i handle it.
How can i changed to 1.56.OliNex..............
AND...
also suggest me a perfect Rom for my Device....
Read , re-read and read again all info in the stickies and wiki. It tells you everything you need to know. There are no short cuts to getting it right.
As for which rom to flash, try them all and make up your own mind which is "best",

That's no problem matey, its a pleasure to help.
As mentioned by Stuntdouble, carefully read through the guide (link for it posted above). All the information you need to unlock your phone using the Hard-SPL or USPL method is explained in great detail.
If you have real trouble following the guide posted above, then see this guide as it tells you how to unlock and flash a custom ROM onto your phone, step-by-step.
To give you a better idea on what ROM to choose I think it's always a good idea to first find out what one looks for in a ROM (i.e. speed, performance, reliability, etc). Click this link for more information one the latest builds, it will help to make your decision easier friend.
If you have any more related questions, all you need to do is post here again.
Best Regards.
thank you both of u guys...................ur job is just awsome...... i will recover the problem...............
Again thank u so much..

How to change HTC HD2 Taiwanese Chinese language to English version?

Please help, Anybody know to re flash ROM from Taiwanese Chinese version to English version?
Will this process damage the phone? I heard the hardware is different for Taiwanese version (from the customer service in Taiwan)
I called HTC customer service they wont help me!!, I bought wrong I thought is easy to change language. I wish I knew
Thanks for your help
uhm, by reading the Tutorials in this forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
Don't worry. Also I bought my HD2 from Taiwan. Official Rom was Taiwanese. Now, I use Customized rom which is English
Firstly you need to install HSPL, and then you can install any of customized rom. It's very easy. You can use an English rom in few minutes. I use XannyTech Pandora 1.6 and I'm very happy with this rom. You should use too.

before you install hspl to your hd2, you must back-up your Official Stock rom, so that you will have no worries uninstalling your hspl by flashing to sd card....
Hi volkansa, Thanks for help to answer my question.
Dio you mind to give me the link and instruction to do this HSPL and how to back up the original ROM just incase I got in trouble. Im very rookie on this
Thanks
Actually, I don't know any backup tool for full rom. But you don'y need to backup current rom. If you install HSPL, you can use any customized rom when you are any trouble. For example My first rom was crashed, and I downloaded another customized rom and I had easily install another customized rom with CustomRUU.exe file.
- For HSPL instruction, you should check first page of HTC Leo: HD2 > HD2 ROM Development section. You will see "[HSPL] How to Flash Everything " on that section. Then click it the link.
- and find the link of HSPL.zip then download and install it from your computer while your phone connected to your pc with ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center which are depends your Windows Operation System. If you use XP you should use ActiveSync; if you use Vista or Windows 7 you should use Windows Mobile Device Center.
- After installation your phone will restarted and then it will be ready for new customized roms.
- Now you need to get backup of your personal datas such as Messages, Contact List, Call Logs, Speed Dial records etc. I use PimBackup utility for them you can try it, if you want. It's very easy. And also you should use Storage Device for backup. It's very important. If you use main storage, you will lost your backups after flashing new rom.
- Then pick you favorite roms and download it. Then use instruction of that customized rom. That's it. You have a new rom

I found a tute on flashing the 1.56 roms but the more I read the more confused I become. There is soooooo much information on here I am suffering from information overload and I cant seem to find a really basic step by step guide or where to download the cooked roms from all the links I follow are broken.

Hey Darkfibre,
Welcome to the world of phone flashing! First of all it's very important to know what kind of phone is it, is it GSM or CDMA? After that, you'll have to unlock the phone in order to flash a custom rom. If you've got a GSM device, then XDA is your best friend, if you have a CDMA phone then head over to ppcgeeks.com. Each site will have detailed instructions on how to unlock and flash your phone. Then it's just a matter of trying out a few roms until you find one that suits you. Goodluck and happy flashing!!
Major
No worries, just follow this step by step guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
It'll answer all questions.
Thanks the heads up guys.
I am just wondering what uncle is going to say when I tell him I turned his HD into a BRICK.
Here goes nothing
One can always use a good door stop! Goodluck!
Hi everyone.
Well I built up the courage and now its 6.5 Energy.Blackstone 21908.Sense2.5 rom.
WOW Wat a buzz when it boots up in the new rom.
Love the new ROMS its made the old HD a new phone. Now its smooth and responsive with great usability.
Just LOOOOVS the sense 2.5 interface.
Cant believe how much I have learnt in the last few weeks
You right Krook this could get adictive!!
I would like to get a pinch zoom working just to rub it in the nose of the apple buds!!
I loaded pinch to zoom but it didnt work. Is there a Rom where it works, or should I stay with opera 10.
I also run the android app on it but its a bit micky at the moment.
This **** is really exciting but HOW do you learn it all!!
I really bow to all you guys U the MEN!!!
Hey Darkfibre,
Pinch to zoom isn't really rom specific. I know I had a bit of trouble getting it going the first time. I believe opera 10 is still not supported but that may have changed. It works for me in Opera 9.7 build 35964. You may need to install a different version of opera to get it running. Still not really worth the effort imho but it's a great start.
Welcome to the community!!
