i think my phone is dieing - Touch HD General

Hello all,
I'm not sure but i think my blackstone is on its last legs.
It all started after i flashed to Dutty's last rom the r15 one. Did the usual uspl and eveything went to plan. Then about a week ago the phone frooze, i could'nt get it to reset so had to take the battery out (no biggy). Then tried turning it back on, and it just frooze again right at the windows start-up screen. So did a hard reset and the phone seemed very slow and jumpy.
Then i thought maybe the download of dutty's rom wasn't the best. So today i had planned to install a different rom and see if it was just a bad download or sumthing. And heres the big problem, i can't get the bootloader to connect to my pc.
And what seems strange is that when i enter the bootloader it flashes up with the re/green/blue/white screen andt ehn it shows a grey screen with "loading......." for about 10 seconds then comes back the normal bootloading screen. As usual serial pops up at the bottom, but when connected to my pc it won't show USB!!
I have win7 64, but i have set it up so i can flash using USPL as thats how i got dutty's R15 rom on there.
Any help would be great and hopfully i can get this sorted swn as i love my hd.
p.s
i've spent the past 2 hours searching here and havent found anyone with the same problem.
Thanks
Antony

if you could update from the sd card that would solve some of your problems.but i realy do not know if it is working if you do not have HSPL.
maybe you can find some info on the forums about updating via sd card without HSPL.
or you could try to connect to a computer with other operating system than windows 7.

i am now installing the stock rom.
hopefully then i wil be able to install a cooked rom again.

Thanks for the help,
I will see what the outcome is from the stock rom. And if i can't get it working again with win7 then i'll have to set up my mini pc (made a pc inside an old nintendo SNES) as thats got xp running
thanks once again

just for my curiosity what method are you using to flash a stock rom if you cannot connect to computer through usb?

Well after more hours spent reading thro web page after web page, i stumbled over someone saying that it could be down to the usb cable and i have a few mini usb one, so tried them all, finally got the bootloader to show the usb.
I was then going to install a cooked rom, but thought i'd be the best to go for stock first.
All is working ok now. I'm not sure if it was down to the usb cable totally tho as it was a bit strange the whole grey loading screen on the bootloader which has gone now with the stock rom.
ah well looks like its fixed for now.

Flash Rom Help PLEASE

I have a Dopod 818pro that was flashed with the wrong ROM and now all I get to is the DOPOD splash screen. I can get to the TRI color screen by pushing the camera and power button.
I have tried hard reset but seems the OS is missing from the phone.
I have the original ROM for my phone on my PC but can not use active sync as the phone does not go further than the SPLASH screen.
How can I reload my original ROM using the SD card.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Canada59
use the tricolor screen even though active sync doesnt see it it still flashes but u need to use the flash upgrade wizard and not the cli interface one
Worked for me but i cant sae it will work 100%
Where do I find the flash upgrade wizard?
When I plug usb in, i get usb on the white band in the color screen
Tried to run the update using RUU and get ERROR 260
Thanks for your help in this
Yeah RUU same thing i was meaning that one cause theres another that uses cli but its a bit dodgy
RUU Wizard should work it never detected ma G4 but it flashed it anyway i was well chuffed cause i thought i had bricked it
I just tryed the app without the phone connected and it gave me error 260 so maybe try different cable or pc cause i had a issue with xp not detecting my phone and i had to reinstall xp just to get active sync to work properly
The main problem is that I had a bad flash, now I can not get pass bootloader screen, PC does not see device, active sync says not connected. there must be a method for loading the NK.ntf file from sd
Not came across anything like that as the SD card driver would be loaded at boot with the OS and in your case theres no OS booting it would be hard to sae it can be done but i bet someone will prove me wrong lol
Good Luck mate ill keep an eye out for anything like that though
Thanks for the help....phone is useless at the moment......

Serious HD2 00028002 error CAN"T USE PHONE!

Hello fellow HD2 users,
I've got an HD2 T-Mobile UK. I've just tried my luck with HSPL, I've succeessfully installed HSPL using the steps in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
However, when I copied the LEOIMG.nbh (1.48 offiicial rom) file to the micro SD 8GB card; and rebooted, things seemed ok untill it suddenly stopped the progress of flashing the ROM and gave me a Grey screen with the Error 00028002 "not Allow" sort of thing.
So I tried yanking battery out, rebooting normally, it displays a grey triangle with " ! " in the middle and then displays the 00028002 error then back to Tri colour bootloader, I noticed that the HSPL is gone and its back now to 1.42.0000
I even tried a Factory reset, it does the reset I reboot, but it still shows me grey triangle and same routine. I've tried everything now. This bloody T-mobile phone is just useless to me at the moment !
Can you please HELP !!! Thank you so much !
Regards !!
Ok found solution, I just had to install the official T-mobile 1.43.110.0 ROM from this link:
http://rapidshare.com/users/258XUJ
After just switching on the phone with microsd inside, I just plugged the usb and started the RUU and followed the steps and things are back to square one now.
not thrilled that it has been a nightmare so far to get a new rom on.
but at least I can use my phone with its basic functionalities. not gona push my luck again...
You cannot flash official ROMS from the sd because it replaces the SPL with a stock one. Presume it got half way through then decided the ROM was not for your device since it hasd replaced the SPL. Cooked ROMS are ok to flash from SD but for Stock use the RUU.
tell me it's working please.my HD2 from UK T-Mob is same "bricked" and in Slovakia is very very difficult to find somebody who can fix this....i think maybe only the HTC repair center
^
If your phone can load up into the boot loader (tri-color screen) your phone is not bricked.
Deeper Trouble:Same error,but cannot use USB!!!
Guys,
im in even much deeper **** now.I accidentally tried flashing a stock ROM via SD card and now ive gt the same ROM code error.What makes this worse is that my Vista computer is not recognizing any USB connection when i connect my HD2 to the computer.If i need to flash a stock rom via RUU wrapper to get through this stupid ROM code error, i need a USB connection at the first place...which IS NOT WORKING NOW!!!...im sitting duck here guys...i really really need your help on this one.im extremely frustrated and helpless.thanks alot...
When u say USB not working, how do you know?
Put phone in bootloader, connect USB cable,,, on phone does "serial" become "USB"? If yes then just run the flash.

PC doesn't recognize (see) my phone

Hello,
I have a problem, when I connect my phone with the USB cable to my computer, it doesn't do anything. He don't recognize the phone, doesn't make any connection nor see the SD card.
I've already tried to clear the box: Enable faster data synchronization, and tried to choose Disk Drive (Faster file transfer), it all doesn't do anything.
Tried different PC's, with WMC and Active Sync 4.5, with different OS's.
The cable isn't broker or something because the only thing that happens when I connect the phone with my PC is that the orange light (battery charge) is on.
I've installed Shadowline ROM, but it did work with that rom (active sync and disk transfer).
I think it is a problem of the ROM tho, so is there any way to flash my ROM without using a PC?
Answers would be realy appreciated.
Thank you.

You can flash from the storage card, just rename the .nbh file to TOPAIMG.nbh and put on the root of your storage card, go to bootloader mode and it will flash.
Your cable can be bad and still charge. I would try a different cable.
Also try deleteing the partnership in Active Sync and try to reestablish it.
I assume you hard reset after you flashed the ROM.
I do not think its a ROM issue.
Ok thanks for your reply.
I did what you sad but when I loaded the TOPAIMG.nbh in the bootloader, it came up with an error and freezes on: Loading ...
When I restarted it It Only shows:

And then he goes to the white screen with the blue letters saying: Loading...
(I waited many times, one time for 2 hours but nothing happend).
When I put out my SD-card and the battery and connect the phone with the USB (my pc still don't see recognize anything) it will boot to the exact same screen as I typed here above but then he stays at that one.
I can't do anything, already tried to hard reset him but that also didn't work.
It feels like im pretty screwed..
Please help!
Maybe you have a problem with the mini USB.
Happen to me with Touch HD.
If so take it to a reppair shop.
Well, I borrowed and USB cable from my friend and now he indeed makes an connection. But no active sync connection. I also can't see my SD card in My Computer. He still only shows the screen that I typed here above, but then under in the white area a little text: USB
What do I have to do next to fix it,
please help
thanks

I am concerned that you screen shot shows SPL 1.83.00, but you have flashed Shadowline's ROM.
It should say SPL: 1.83.00Olinex which would mean you have HSPL installed which is absolutely required to flash a custom ROM.
Did you have that ROM operational and just couldn't sync, or has the device not worked since you flashed this ROM?
Yes, I had the shadowline ROM, and it al worked good. I also could connect my mobile to my pc with the USB cable.
I don't know what happend, I didn't install any other program or something else but I suddently couldn't connect my mobile phone to my pc anymore.
But I wanted another ROM because I noticed that the Shadowline ROM feld a little bit laggy, so I found out that you can do that by your booting with the SD card.
And I know that you have to install hardSPL first, so I downloaded that one from the big post in this ROM forum from Topaz.
Booted with the SD card, and then when I started to flash the ROM he gave an error and now I have to problem that I can't do anything anymore.

I guess my point was if you had Shadowlines ROM, you were already HSPL'd, no need to do again.
Hard reset the phone and try to install ROM from SD.
Hi,
i had once the same problem. No connection with PC anywhere. I couldnt do nothing with that and was quite desperate about that.
But once suddenly it came to work again. I am not sure what made it work again but the only thing I can guess was that I took out and gave back the memory card with the turned on phone. Since then I have never had this problem again.
I wish you that this taking out of memory card helped you too.
Well, If I'm hard resetting, the only thing he does is show the percentages, then he says completed, then he reboot en I'm back at the tri-color screen again.
And I can't enter the bootloader, so I also can't install the ROM from the Sd-card.
And taking out the memory card while the phone is on also dont work
Any other options what maby will work?

Just some points;
Make sure the .nbh file is named excatly TOPAIMG.nbh paying attention to the case of the letters.
When you attempt to go into Bootloader, Holding Voume Down and Power buttons at the same time when phone is off, what screen appears?
[Q] my handset doesn´t recognize sd apps
I had the same problem as well, so I deactivated and reactivated the SD card from the phone, actually I cant take out the sd with the turned on phone. It worked once, but it happened again so i tried to the same but know the deactivate function in settings doesnt worked. Now i dont know what to do. if anyone could help me i would be very thankful.
My handset is a xperia x10 with 2.1 generic flashed bb 2.1.54, and 2.2 wolbreak gingerbread rom.

how to install updated rom without active sync

i have a tmobile wing and i have vista so i wanted to update my phone with a knew rom version....so i installed windows mobile device center 6.1 ...but it would not sync ,i uninsalled it then reinstalled it no go....so im wondering how can i hard spl my phone without my pc ....and install a rom ...now i tried my wifes touch pro 2 on the windows mobile device center and it works but my wing wont ....anyone ran into this problem or has a solution ...i read a few threads saying hard reset but that did not work
Do you intend to flash with the flash center using the USB cable or have you considered using an SD card to flash your ROM?
If you are using USB to flash have you tried putting your phone into bootloader mode? While pressing the camera button, press the soft reset button below the volume control with the stylus and continue to hold the camera button until the tri colored screen pops up. When it does, look in the bottom left ( if I recall correctly ) to see if it recognizes the USB connection. It will say USB in that bottom left spot if it is connected and you are ready to flash. Ideally you want to be connected via Active sync but it is possible to flash from the bootloader screen.
Consider flashing via SD card. There are many different threads on this and it really is a very simple process. I hear it is also better for flashing because if you unplug the USB cable during a flash you can brick your phone. Just an idea.
Good luck.
yes i would like to flash from wmdc if possible....ill try the bootloader mode first
i just tried it the bars come up and it says usb in the corner ...but wmdc would not recognise it ...is there some settings on the wing i need to do to get it to sync

To flash from the boot loader screen you just need to go through the steps in the flash center. I never looked to see if my computer recognized the phone while plugged in; I just assumed it did not because active sync was not running. You should be able to initiate the flash through flash center and as you go through the steps it should recognize which rom you have loaded and it should read the rom you plan to install (which should be placed in the RUU folder within the flash center). I personally had to do this process about two flashes ago and can verify that it worked for me without having to "be connected" as far as Window's was concerned.
My advice, just go through the steps in flash center and you should see some progress. Good luck.
i went through the process it tells me nothing is connected then i have to exit

I would then go through the steps to format a 2gb or less MicroSD card and place the ROM file in the root directory and renaming it HERAIMG. From what I hear, this is a safer way to flash anyway so this should be your method whenever possible. There are many threads describing this process. The hardest part for me was to find a way to properly format my card in my computer. My best advice if you have a Dell or another laptop with an SD slot built it, would be to use another port to plug into. I tried for days to find a way or a program to format my MicroSD card in the built in SD slot but no matter what I did, it would not work. Finally, after much frustration, I tried a usb card reader and managed to successfully format the MicroSD on the first try and have been flashing with this method ever since. Hopefully this is all it takes to get you back up and running again. Good luck once again; I'll have my fingers crossed.

Bootloader no USB?!

Hi all, started to try and get phone onto android last night.
Followed the guide for HSPL3 then started started to update radio but got error about USB!
Booted into boot screen to see whats going on (volume down) and it wont go past loading! just sits saying loading!
The device boots ok and i get windows (eventualy! if i wait) Once booted into windows USB works but in the bootloader i cant get USB!
I have pressed volume down and red button and in white box it stays on serial!
I have googled for hours any pointers?

grey screen, writing in blue? sounds like it thinks you have a rom on your sd card. try it without the sd card in.
Thanks for you suggestion - tired that already should have said.
The issue is fixed however - I took out SIM aswell as SD, manualy booted to loader. Waited 5 min then it changed to USB! Quickly opened HSPL3 an re flashed.
Issue was still the same! So followed same procedure and used HSPL 1.6 that fixed it! I can then flash with a rom suitable for Android!
Flashed 4 min later, put Android on - now loving my new phone - its amazing the difference! This is how the HTC HD2 should have been!
heh, lucky you, i've tried android on 6 different occasions now, first four times i wasted some hours and never got it to boot, 5th and 6th time it worked, but when i restarted, the phone wouldn't restart without a hard reset, so i'm not touching it again for at least another three months.
Thanks. Your solution worked great. As soon as I pulled the SIM and waited a few minutes it popped right up. You should mark this thread title as solved
@samsamuel try using nand its alot easier to install and there are some great builds on this website!
Sent from my Gingerbreaded HTC HD2 using XDA App
Hi there,
the problem is not solved for me!
I flashed my HD2 several times before, using winXP. Now I got a new laptop with
Win 7 64 bit. I want to flash my phone with a WM6.5 Dutty ROM. The phone syncs fine when running but when it switches to bootloader, the laptop doesn't recognize the phone anymore. It does not switch to USB and on the Laptop I get the message that there is no driver for "Qualcomm CDMA technologies MSM"
Help please, I tried to find some answers but couldn't find anything!
Thanks.
