using active sync method on windows vista,
downloaded the Rom from orange web site have
also tried HTC Rom and that also stps at 12%
phone now has no gsm on boot up
If you can find the SHIPPED STOCK radio rom you may have the slightest chance of recovering the radio BUT it sounds like you have got a corrupted radio rom. This is generally a total brick. If you can't get the original rom on, you might be able to recook it without the radio rom using ROM Kosch. Should be able to find it here somewhere but if you have changed the SPL then you might have problems.

Hello , I flashed dutty's 1.8 ROM on to my HD , then on that same night I applied a screen protector and left it overnight . On the next morning , I tried to scroll to the messaging tab in TF3D , but my screen didn't respond , I think it has something to do with me using a bit too much solution to apply the screen protector , which still got scratched in the end .
I have decided to try using the warranty to fix the phone but first I want to flash back the stock ROM and SPL , is there a way to do this without using the touchscreen at all ?
EDIT : Ok now i'm stuck ,I've flashed a stock ROM but I can't restore stock SPL , i'm stuck at the 'align screen' section and the HardSPL RUU gives me a connection error 202 , last time i solved this by unchecking 'enable faster activesync' or something like that , but i can't go there now
Any advice ?
Thanks

I can't see why not, using the RUU method might be easier but the SD card will let you do the ROM, not sure about SPL. Have a look at the tutorials.
Hello! I'm a french user and got the same problem since a few weeks.
Everything is left original on my phone (rom , programs ,...)and sometimes the screnn freezes after hanging up a call...impossible to get any reaction on the screen , only solution...soft reset and then the screen reacts perfectly again!!!????

I've got exactly the same problem:
my touchscreen isn't working any more, and for warranty reasons i want to flash back to original rom and stock spl. Rom worked fine (O2_XDA_Diamond_1.93_RUU), but now I can't go back to the original stock spl.
I tried as to be seen here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2324829&postcount=39
But I've got the same "connection 202 error" as splink...
By trying the installation from the Bootloader runing on my Diamond, the screen and my pc shows an completed 100% installation of the stock spl, but when I take a look now at the bootloader, it's say again that im using the "SPL-1.40.OliNex"
Does anyone has got any idea how to get back to the original stock spl?
Had a similar problem using HSPL with communication errors when trying to get back to stock radio and stock spl. I used USPL in the end by first flashing the stock rom, then the stock radio and finally the stock spl (1.14). Then I reflashed stock rom and it all worked.
Using USPL you just rename the SPL rom image "BLACIMG.nbh" but you should be aware that there are risks (see post 236) involved doing it this way. I had no choice and took the risk and everything was ok.
Do read about it all in the USPL thread and there is some useful info in the HSPL thread as well.
It was working and then all of a sudden I could not get a data connection..after a soft reset I could not get the phone out of flight mode..it would turn on wifi and blutooth but not data or phone radio. It acted like it could not read the SIM card. I could not even pull up my contacts list stored on the SIM card. I put the SIM in another phone and everything works.
I had no event that would have damaged the phone (drop etc..) so is it possible its a software issue? I did reflash a few ROM's but none would get it to work.
Has anyone had this happen to them? should I try to take the phone apart?
I love this phone
trying to reflash radio rom
OK I got an idea to try and reflash the radio ROM (1.58) in hopes that it would clear up my issue. I'm having a problem with this ..it will hang at the 0% progress (shown on the computer and the phone) and after a time error out. I then have to reflash the OS ROM and start all over...I have done this a few time with that same result. I even tried to use the older 1.57 radio ROM with the same results.
Anyone have any ideas on how i can get the radio flash to work?
Update
it seems like any flashing that tries to acces the radio portion of the ROM will not work..I get a error code 262 - loss of communication every time i try and flash any radio rom, I even tried to run the unlocker because one of the steps is to patch the radio rom ..but still get the same error..only this time it will go all the way to 99% bfr i get the error.
After all that I still have to reflash a OS ROM (currently 6.1 RO one) and everything still works great except for I cant turn on my radio for the phone and data.
Anyone have any idea how i can overcome this?
One idea i had was to roll back to the spl 1.2 ROM's but wanted to get some feedback bfr I do that..if it would even be worth trying.
thanks
Update 2
I decided to try and run the SPL downgrader. I flashed the ROM to prep ..all went OK ..then tried to run the SPLDowngrader.exe and when it got to the point where i see the progress in % it said:
Found SPL v1.20
Download SPL before v3.03
is not allowed!
Now I dont know what to do..please any help from anyone??
I was running the 3.5 SPL 6.1 RO ROM ..and never downgraded til now. Wes it because i was trying to run the unlocker earlier that may have messed something up?
Right now when i put it in boot loader (no choice its just that way after my failed attempt to downgrade) it shows:
ATHE100
IPL-v2.02
ATHE100 MFG
SPL-v3.50. OliNex
I may be able to reflash a 3.50 SPL ROM and get it back up and running but want to hold off to see if anyone knows more about how to fix it.

Hi, sorry to hear of your problem
have you tried flashing radio 1.57 from sd card?
after this I would try flashing a 3.5 rom
Good luck
Thanks for the suggestion
I tried that and it started OK and even tried to load ..the progress bar showed about 1/8th of it loaded then it just stops...the phone stays that way saying "In Progress.." but will not load any more. I pulled out the battery and put on a 3.5 ROM to flash from the SD card..it works no problem..I even can flash a 1.2 ROM for some reason and it works no problem...but I cant flash the radio ROM (tried 1.58 and 1.57) they will start and load only a little way then just stop.
Anyone have any other ideas? Is there a way to run the unlocker from the SD card? I feel like i'm getting further using that approach than with activesync.
Thanks for the help so far!

Try flashing taxists rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396165
this has radio 1.58 included so may be an upgrade path for you
I hope someone here can help me to make my LEO work again.
Im having huge problems with my HD2 after flashing a ROM with Extendir. While setting up the device with Preset Installer my PDA went to deep sleep and failed installing all cabs.
After reboot it hung on the screen where Radio Version etc. is shown. That is why i made another Hard Reset. That let my phone boot again but after initial setup it hangs again at that place.
I tried another ROM and experienced the same problem. After that i went back to shiped with spl and radio. Not even that fixed the problem.
I tried MTTY with task 29 and reflash stock. It stays the same! After initial setup my phone sometimes hangs before or after boot animation. sometimes it boots till sense is started and hangs there.
Does anyone have a smart idea how i can make my leo run propper again?
Thanks for help.
edit: im not sure if its Extendir. It could be something else, too. I tried flashing via usb and storage card.

to specify that rom you used in this moment and to specify that RADIo is used
I used the Lost in Asia Regular Version V0.8 and Radio 2.08.50.05 and HSPL.
At the moment i have a lover Radio version.

to assess that rom V.0.8 it has rom 2.0x base
radio 2,08 to enable 576 MB
the rom that it uses, it could not be compatible with the version radius
try to chnge a version radio or try to change version rom
if you use radio 2.08 from rom 2.07,try to flash rom cooked with 576 Mb enable
sorry for my poor english,i'm Italian
Sorry mate
the problem is other
I have since the rom of bob qualified V.08 is for 576 mb
You tried booting up with the SD card taken out of the device?
WB
You need to have a radio that supports the 576 mb. But I don't think this is your problem. It sound like to me your storage card is the problem. If you have another storage card format it to FAT 32 and try again. I bet your problem is solved. Also Don't use a 16gb card until you know for sure it is working. Even then there are problem with some people using them.
I dont have a Storage Card inserted now. Still the same problem
Btw. Using Laurentius V1.2 now. Same error here. i try to flash a lower Radio now.
As i said before i flashed stock 1.66 via storage card with radio and spl and still had the same Problem.

Are you able to flash HSPL again? Can you confirm on the Tri Color screen it says HSPL 1.42?

Everything flashes as usual. HSPL, Radio and ROMs. The software just isnt running stable after flash.
If it would be a Radio/SPL/ROM problem the stock rom should fix it.
Not wanting to be the one to say it but maybe your device is defective or damaged. Or maybe the problem was caused ny the failure going to sleep, but I don't think so. I have accidentally unplugged mine before during flash and still got it back. If you reflash the ROM it should work again. If you don't have any luck I would flash back to the Stock ROM and take it in for repair.
To bad noone can help. I will do some research and if i have no success i will send it back.
Some weeks of waiting

Yes there have been many. There have been some in my threads. There is also a thread posted here with lots of discussions and it was determined the the lock ups and freezes with Manila 19222911 was the 16gb cards. It seems there was only one ROM that did not have the problem and unfortunately this cook doesn't share with others.
im making improvements. after flashing stock i found out that i can change more and more settings and install programs without the need to hard reset. when i damage the filesystem with a program or setting i hardreset the device. after restart i can install that program without problems and can try another one.
seems that my device is repairing magically

I think you didn't understand. after EACH program or setting i need to hardreset.
after hardreset i can install that program as usual as all programs i did that with before.
sseems that i 'gain' more and more storage back.

I guess I don't understand. You have to have a working ROM to install a program? For a stock ROM you should not have to install anything. It either works or it doesn't.
Because my phone keeps freezing about 5 times a day am thinking of flashing this rom (have the leoimg file on my sd card ready to install). Just want to know, now it's been out for a few weeks, what everyones thoughts on it is? Still fast & stable? No other issues?
Cheers
dont flash via sd card! it can overwrite ur spl >.<! do it only via usb on a computer!
Overwriting the SPL won't be a problem as I need a stock spl if I ever want to send it back for repair. + I can always reflash hpsl2 if needs be
Seems OK
Only problem I had was I re-installed .NET3.5, as I didn't trealise the new rom contains a later version.
It ran like a very very slow thing until I un-installed.

flash the stock rom via sd card at your peril,the spl will be changed to 2.something witch is not stock and hspl2 can't change it
also if you send the phone for repairs with the 2.? spl in it tmobile will most likely void the warranty.
ps why don't you try Artemis, the roms are very fast and great for every day use.
blocked hd2, here what happened, i had artemis v17 and wanted to go back to the official htc rom but flashing wasn't completely succesful, basically now i have in my hd2 some part of the official rom and some part of the artemis but it's not working at all, i can't succesfully flash no one of the two roms and no roms at all
active sync isn't working so i can only operate by sd card i tried and searched a lot but no solution yet...hope of a good advice....

Extract the rom to get the nbh file. Rename that nbh to LEOIMG.nbh. Copy it to your SDcard, and flash in bootload mode.
NOTE: You will have to reflash HSPL if you want to flash any custom rom at a later stage and this can only be done from computer!
yes i tried it but the flashing of the original htc stops because there is part of the artemis that prevents from flashing orginal roms in the phone
aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh i can t buy new phone how can i solve it i've been trying for days!!!!
and i can't connect the hd2 to the pc since there's no working rom in it.

but shanman tell me, with this kit do i need active sync working?
i have no working rom in my hd2 so i guess i somehow have to restore the hd2 to factory settings and factory rom without having to use activesync, or anyway flash any rom and then be able to flash win 6.5!
I REALLY DON'T WANT TO BURY MY HD2 IT'S STILL GREAAAAAAT, please i'm searching all over but cant find a solution so far
if you can enter bootloader you should be able to flash via USB if PC drivers are correct & no Hardware issue present on HD2.
