Alright, I've been in the process of trying to flash the ROM on my Vogue. I've been doing this over at PPCGeeks, and thought I try my luck for help with good people of xda.
Here is the comment I posted over there:
Alright, I've been reading and reading, can't find the answer, so hopefully someone can give me a detailed answer.
I ran the unlocker, to flash on OMJ Vogue ROM, with the Rev-A and GPS capabilities. During the process when the HTC ROM updater came on, the device wouldn't reconnect (I tried about 5 times, hard reset and starting from scratch). After waiting at the updater for about 10 minutes, I hit next and this time, as mentioned above, it said it was replacing the ROM image, but was blank. Meanwhile my phone is on the bootloader reading SPL-2.00.CoKe, after the updater went through the process, all of a few seconds, it performed the hard reset.
Now I have entered the bootloader to see SPL-2.31.CoKe, even after two hard resets, one being the auto, and one manual. The phone starts as it should, but once I turn it off, it won't power back on. I believe I saw a fix for this, but can't remember.
My biggest questions are, what can I do now? Is this normal, and I should continue to flash from here?
Anybody here know what I can do?
Thanks!

Wow, thanks junior, this is a bit more of a specific question.
Sounds like you did not do the radio upgrade that is necessary. I agree though, posting in a forum that is specific to your device/problem is best. And, I know for a fact, that there are numerous threads/posts on this subject at ppcgeeks.

That's the problem though, I couldn't even get to the radio part yet. I think the issue was with the reconnecting the device to ActiveSync, during the unlocking proccess?
Now, is there a way to complete this step through an SD card. Using ImCokeMan's 2.31 Vogue unlocker.
I went through the exact same thing, they're right about the radio
Use the official leaked sprint rom, it's an exe. Run it and flash. Then, DON'T LET IT BOOT UP!!! Immieaditely put it back in CoKe, and flash your desired ROM. When the vogue first starts up, it should say under those numbers that pop up R 3.37.15

Awesome, I'm glad someone here has knowledge on this ! Ok, but from this point, the device has been hard reset, still with it showing the SPL as 2.31.CoKe, so from here should I run the Radio exe, it seems that I never finished the first step, which is completeing the unlocker tool, is this normal?
I have been searching the forums for about an hour trying to figure these things out.
Previously I rooted my phone back when JF was the only ROM out and I didn't keep up with it.
Now I see that there's all these new different kinds of roms and its pretty confusing.
So far what I have been trying to do is start from the beginning because I don't know what is updated and what isn't.
Trying to un-root my phone, was following this thread. I believe I was able to update the original SPL that is in the sticky thread in development by doing the update. After that I was trying to get into bootloader to load the DREAIMG.nbh and it would just show the tri-color screen and nothing else. I hit the power button as it said on that thread but nothing showed up, waited about 30 minutes. So I restarted and tried a few times, no luck.
I reboot my phone once more and let it boot up normally and my old ROM is still intact, just wiped. I decided to just try to update to the SuperHero Full ROM and reading the thread it says newest SPL is required, which I can't seem to find which one is the newest.
Any direction or if I'm doing this wrong would be nice to know. Thanks for any help you can give.
http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/spl-signed.zip
that is the newest signed SPL. flash that, then install hero, along with a wipe to make sure you have no problems, and you should be good. as far as your flashing problem, what exactly are you doing?
I was trying to flash it back to RC29 and was having issues
issues with what? i dont know what the problem is unless you tell me
if it is a flashing issue for the SPL, there are many threads in the dev section.... as far as downgrading, there is another thread over in the dev section, go check them out

I followed the downgrading or unrooting thread.
When I try to downgrade to RC29 in bootloader, it goes to a tri-color screen with just Serial0 in the middle with the Radio version and such, then does nothing else. I'm going to try skipping downgrading, wanted to start from scratch but I will just try to switch from my ROM to SuperHero's and see how it goes.
update: I did the SPL update from that link and now its stuck on the boot screen (G1 logo)
Are you able to enter into recovery? (Power on while holding the home key) if so, place the rom of your choice (something other than the Hero Rom until you are sure you have the latest SPL and radio) on your sd card, name it update.zip wipe then apply the update. This should get you up and running. Also? Which radio do you have?

No problem. This thread can be closed now.
after my phone rebooted once the update was complete, it wont get passed the "at&T World Phone" white screen... SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!! i was using a stock at&t pure with the stock rom. i can not upgrade hardspl or ANYTHING any suggestions on how to get my phone to boot? hard-reset went through with no signs of failure but it still will not boot up after that finishes... sorry if its something im overlQQKing, but i just cant figure it out. n yes i have researched although obviously not enough at this point. Thanks to anyone who can help in advance. forgive my stupidity!!!

noone?????
The HTC Pure updates hosed my phone too, I had already applied hard-spl to my Pure and i've flashed it with dozens of roms. Since I was currently using one of the "Stock" AT&T roms posted on XDA I figured I could apply the updates. Unfortunately after applying the update my phone froze at the boot loader. I was forced to flash my rom using the memory card method and then restore a backup.
you could try putting the phone in SSPL mode manually, (reset button+volume down), the run hard-spl hard-spl in manual mode.
you can then flash your rom using the memory card method. (FAT32 formated memory card, rom file renamed to topaz.nbh copied to root of flash card, reset button+volume down to enter SSPL, power button to confirm flash).
All this assumes you've already tried to hard reset your Pure (reset button+vol up+vol down)
Thanks for the reply! Unfortunatly, i tried the manual method and after it hanging at 0% for about 5 minutes, i keep getting error [262] update error.. (communications error) is this becuase i can not sync with mobile device center (win7)? I really dont want to just have to toss the phone! I have had an at&t tilt, at&t fuze, and now the at&t pure, and this is the only phone i have had this problem with for some reason...
Try Unplugging Your Pure From the computer Take Out the Battery Put the Battery Back in Mean While Restart your computer and Press Power And Volume Down At the Same time on your Pure If its on the colored screen your good,..Make sure your system is online and your not downloading anything and plug in your Pure to the computer it give it about 2 minutes to download the HTC USB driver then once its done your phone will say USB on the bottom of the Red Green Blue And White four color screen Then open up one of your ROM's and Flash it,....Do You Have Windows Mobile Device Center Installed?
If Not here is the Link
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
If you do already you need to uninstall the Driver update for windows mobile media center then install it again .
i can get the bootloader screen just fine! i just can not get hardspl to flash onto it. it sits at 0% every time. the phone will not boot so i can NOT get into mobile device center. The tri-colored screen comes up with no problem and it says USB on the bottom, so the drivers are already installed. I even tried hard-reset and still no luck
There was an additional cab file I needed to install to HSPL the Pure
"enablerapinew.cab"
basically the machine just would fail to load the HSPL without it
but it still functioned afterwards, does yours?
Do a search on XDA find and DL the cab (or I could attach a zipped copy)
If you can still access the device,
just copy enablerapinew.cab to any temp dir on the device
the execute it through fileexplorer
then go back to installing the HSPL (mine then worked fine)
If you haven't already, You should go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312
you'll find troubleshooting info and a link to the extra cab there
If you really are bricked at this point , it sounds like nothing has actually
been changed on your device yet? its just frozen should be still under warrentee? Unless anyone else has a better suggestion you should be
able to return it for exchange to ATT
Good Luck

It sounds like Windows is not properly recognizing your device when it is plugged into the USB port while in SSPL mode.
Have you tried different ports?
Is there another computer you can use?
another thought about returning under warranty
on the boot page of the stock Pure it indicates HSPL 1.83.000
After you update the HSPL it will say HSPL "1.83.Olinex"
this normally an indication of a successful update,
but it will probably void your warranty if they just look at the boot screen
This is true for all Pure (and Tmobile Compact V) Rom upgrades
The Stock Pure came with 6.5 and therefore the 1.83.00 HSPL
The Diamond2s did not, so their solution which reverts to 1.63 <?>
will not correctly revert to 1.83.00 on the Pure.
No way to correct this yet as far as I know,?
All the "reverts" are geared toward the Diamond2s, not the Pure.
But If your boot screen indicates 1.83.00 before it freezes
I'm fairly sure its still entitled to a warranty repair/replace
How could they tell the cause of the failure
was a reburn as opposed to natural causes?
Good Luck
KJL
When you put the phone into a manual bootloader mode... Mobile Device Center becomes obsolete.
HardSPL is only needed for unofficial roms. Forget HardSPL for the time being. The goal here is to get your phone operational. Just download the official HTC WM6.5 WWE rom and flash that. Put phone in manual bootloader mode and run the Rom installer.
As long as your phone is in bootloader mode and says "USB"... then your set to go.
Another solution is to try another PC. You'd be surprised how often that will resolve your issues. Perhaps find an XP machine and install Activesync (so it loads the bootloader USB drivers). I had to do that on several occasions when my main PC refused to flash my mobile device.
I did both of the updates htc has for the pure. Both worked fine. I am on the origianal rom. It does reboot your phone and stays on the white screen for a min then it loads the update and the phone starts.
The offical ROM comes back with a wrong vender ID error I guess cause its a "pure" and not the HTC branded "topaz"... NOW what should i do??? Seems like i NEED hardspl so i can flash any ROM, as from what i researched, there IS NO AT&T Pure rom that has been released. I still cant figure out why a hard-reset will not work though.... This is REALLY starting to get me angry!!!
Just for reference, the Pure's ID is TOPA210 32M
SPL-1.83.0000
The official hotfixes worked fine for me as well. Did you apply the hotfixes on the original ROM that came with your Pure?
Also, does the official HTC Touch Diamond 2 ROM work for you? If so, the hotfixes for the Pure are irrelevant, as are any future updates released for the Pure. You should look for updates for the Touch Diamond 2 on the Worldwide HTC site.
If you needed to do a warranty claim, the closest you can get to returning your phone to stock/shipped form is to use the ROM dump using HardSPL and hope they don't notice that the SPL is different. Currently, there's no way to return the Pure back to completely official software.
A hard reset simply wipes everything off and restores everything back to what is contained in just the ROM you currently have on it. If you've flashed your phone at all, you've already wiped out the original ROM that came with it.
It is still the STOCK ROM. I have never flashed it yet.. The topaz rom will not flash due to a vender ID error. The spl is still stock also... i think thats is why i am having this problem. I bought the phone off craigslist so returning it to AT&T is NOT an option either way. My only solution is to find a fix. (or trash it) I really appreciate all of your suggestions and input so far. You guys are by far the best board around! I am a LONG time follower, but a few-time poster. Obviously i have little to contribute to the board.
Can I trouble you to dig up a few version numbers? It'd help evaluate your situation so we can see which options are best for your case.
ROM version? You can find this in Device Information. Start --> Settings --> System --> Device Information
Bootloader version? Do a soft reset while holding down the volume down button on the side until a screen with red, green, blue, and white, ordered top to bottom, shows up. It should be the second line starting with "SPL-..."
The ROM is the STOCK AT&T ROM (again...) I CAN NOT go to start;.... because if you noticed in the first post, the phone will not boot past the white "AT&T WorldPhone" screen... the spl is stock also incase you missed that part. (1.33.0000) I have never flashed the divice. EVERYTHING IS HOW AT&T SELLS THE PURE OUT OF THE BOX! NO MODS. NO FLASHED ROMS. NO HardSPL... NOTHING! STOCK!!! (for those overlooking the details in my previous posts) I have no doubt you guys (n hopefully a few girls ) will help me fix my issue. I'm just REALLY anxious for it to happen sooner than later!
Have you tried downloading the official rom here on xda and renaming it to TOPAIMG.nbh and update using the sd card method?
Here is the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=600339
The download is in post #1
I have downloaded the official ROM. Although I thought it is still concidered "custom" and that you need spl updated to install it... Am I wrong about this? Also, by using the SDcard to flash, do I NEED to have hardspl on the device? If yes, I can not use this method, as I have stated before that the spl is still stock and NOT updated in any kind of way. NOTHING on the phone has been updated or flashed. Will this method still work then???? I am at work for 3 more hours and then will go home and try it either way and come back to update you all on the results. Again, THANK YOU for your continued support in helping me out!! At this point, I will send a donation via paypal to whoever can get me out of this hole!

You can flash hard SPL the same way by renaming the .nbh file to
TOPAIMG.nbh

Actually that is supposed to be an officially signed rom. If that is true it will work with the stock spl. It will either work or it won't. Also, as stated in the response after yours, you can apply the hardspl via SD as well.
Hello.
This is my first post, so please be kind to me!
I've spent the past few weeks trying to get my head around what to do in order to flash my HD2 which is on the t_mobile network
The original rom 1.43 i think is driving me crazy and I now dont care if I change the rom and it invalidates the warenty!
In order to HSPL I need to SPL first, but will my device allow this?
I've read through so many threads that I am completely confused and dont know which way to turn, never mind which thread to re-read.
Can someone point me to the sspl, HSPL to upgrade to 1.66
Thanks
Glyn
oh its the 512 version
you are over confusing yourself.
download hspl 2
instal it - choose whichever hspl you like (may as well go for 2.08.hspl)
flash whatever rom you like from usb. (don't forget to flash a compatible radio either before or straight after.)
Thanks for your reply......
so downloan the HSPL from here?
'forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477'
and as I run the program I'll get the option of which version to install?
What should I look for to make sure that the radio is compatible with the rom?
Thanks again and sorry for my ignorance
Glyn
best thing you can do is to read a lot. No need to do enerything in one mad dash.
get HSPL2 from HERE - end of the first post (but read the post, dont just skip to download, )
run it as administrator (right click, run as administrator)
for best results use a usb port on the back of your PC (i.e one directly on teh motherboard, not an external usb slot) it will ask what version you want to install. just go for 2.08.hspl (not 2.08.0000) and let it do its thing. the authors say you should match the version to the rom (so 1.43.hspl for roms that are 1.43 or 1.48, 1.66.HSPL for 1.6 based roms, etc, but it isn't critical, most will run on any HSPL, so dont go changing every time you flash a new rom, no need. If it doesnt work then change it.)
As for radio tips, a radio with .51. in the number, (eg 2.09.51.03) will NOT work with any rom that has the 576meg ram, enabled.
If you flash a rom and all you get when you restart is a grey screen, chances are the radio doesnt match. Boot to bootloader and flash the radio.
But most of all, read stuff.
What about shipped rom's that are .exe files? Do they include radios with it? Also, is there a post you can point me to that has a list of compatible radios with different rom's?
that's where reading comes in. the whole process has so many variants that there is no simple "a b c" that covers everything.
yes the exe includes radio (and also spl if you use sd card to flash -stay away from sd card, use usb and if anything goes wrong you just boot to bootloader and re flash)
the chefs give you all the infoyou need in the first couple of posts. the sticky threads in the rom development section will tell you how to do everything, and any problem you encounter has beenwritten about already. so read,search and read.
I suggest you flash Stock WWE 1.66 ROM first so you can have a feel of how much improvement
has been done from 1.43
you can download it in HTC website.
Thanks for your help so far..
I would like to go for the 1.66 official ROM first, so I'll find that on here first and find the exe file so I dont have to mess about with compatible radio's.
Just before I HSPL it, I would like a copy of the original 1.43 T-Mobile ROM, so better get searching.
Thanks again
Glyn
the original 1.43 T-Mobile ROM is on HTCs website so get it from there as a backup
THANKYOU!!
Thankyou so much for your help and guidance.
Last night I decided to just do it - the phone was so poor I couldn't take it anymore.
3 hours from start of backing up, to installing HSPL2, to flashing with 1.66, anf then restoring data
I cant believe the transformation - I am so pleased I didnt throw it at a wall!!!
So a massive thanks to the members of this community
im in the same boat... got a stock uk hd2 on tmobile and wasn't to flash a new rom but the information is overwhelming and im scared I will flash a wrong rom and kill my phone :0)

theres nothing to it. the 'normal' hd2 which you do have, is about the safest phone to flash in the world today, with HSPL2. The 'radios killing phones' problem that started last week is specific to the t mobile US model only, , the one with 1 gig rom.
If you install HSPL on your phone, and then only flash over USB, the very worst that will happen (from a software point of view) is that the phone stops at a grey screen, and/or only boots into bootloader, so you boot into bootloader, you flash something else, and it's fixed.
The T Mo UK stock rom is available to download as backup, (as is o2 and voda for anyone looking) in the 'LEO official roms' thread in rom development, first post, first link, first folder (1.43)
At any time, you can flash that rom from sd card (look it up if you need to) and restore everything, spl, radio and rom, , to factory settings.
In all honesty, so long as you are careful, methodical, don't pull out USB cables halfway through, laptop battery dies, etc , then you are more likely to get bricked from some freak incident, like , umm, battery dieing, heh.
Fear not! be smart, be careful, try to understand what you are doing and why at each step, read up on what an spl is, and the job is , as they say, sorted.

Hi samsamuel,
Sorry to msg you like this.
i have purchased a T mobile HTC HD2 which came with the stock 1.43 ROM.
I want to put 1.66 on but don't know how.
I've read the forum and looked on youtube but confused.
Do you have an idiots guide?... i really am an idiot when it comes to stuff like this!
I have downloaded HSPL2 file.
I have downloaded the back up 1.43 Stock Rom
Do i need to download the 1.66 ROM now and how do i update?
please excuse my ignorance and i am happy to donate if you can help.
Kind regards

RE:
Hi Samsamuel,
Thanks.. just one more thing.
Saw on youtube that i have to format my SC card
youtube.com/watch?v=nrmlqrfCvas[/url]
is this so and is this referring to the sd card in the HTC or my own sd card used to download the 1.66 onto?

PS. why won't this forum allow me to send you a PM?.. i can't send any msg's at all.
Hi, after hours of researching to find the problem, i cant find it so as my last resort i will ask the mighty forums if there is anything they can do about it.
The problem is that its stuck in a boot loop, i can get in to bootloader and Hboot.
When i press to go in to recovery its just goes to the HTC logo and stays there.
When i try to do a factory reset same thing happened.
Anyway, the facts.
Its a DHD it used to have leedroid latest as rom, atm i have no idea it is supposed to be 1.32 stock rom for rooting and RADIO-26.14.04.28_M, kernel was also leedroid recommended but i guess that also is 1.32 stock.
It was ENG S-OFF but then i tried some PD98IMG and it changed to SHIP S-OFF
Things that i have tried.
Tried different PD98IMG to get the recovery working but nothing same thing happened there.
Tried patched/flashed the recovery part only with no luck.
Tried to get into recovery through pulling the battery inserting the usb and then inserting the battery again, no luck.
The odd thing is when i try to charge the phone and the led goes orange and when i pull the usb out it stays orange, it should turn off.
I suppose i ****ed something over but i have no clue of what that is?!?
Help would be most appreciated
I'm suggesting everyone to give this method a try although i have no experience with it but since it can be used to recover using computer i believe recovery isn't necessary here so that you can recover the firmware using the PC.
Hope this helps

Done and failed, same problem no difference what so ever.
SHIP S-OFF is OK!! U got it m8!
If you want to use your own Image do it within this way:
1. Flash this: http://www.multiupload.com/FKJ8B7Q0QM
and after this:
2. Flash this: http://www.multiupload.com/AURLLESU5V
And enjoy it! I don't know why the PD98IMG is not working on your device so I recomend to flash the RUU. Within the RUU you will also get the latest firmware for phone and wifi and so on. It's not a need, it's a must!
The 2nd ROM is same as above but it's ROOTED and contains the 4ext Recovery which will give you the option to flash whatever you want.
BUT!!! This ROM's are ORIGINAL. If you want to use a CUSTOM ROM I would recomend you will format your device by the 4ext Recovery or you are using the FULL WIPE 1.5.
Regards!
Sorry for the insane delay.
That did not work either, anyone else have any idea what to do, installing through PD98IMG.zip files seams not to work, will at this point do anything.
I'am a student so buying a new one is out of the question.
I tend to have to see things to understand them more. Maybe other people are similar. Is it possible you can video the process, put it on YouTube and some of the experts here can see it and talk you through it?

Here is where i go into fastboot, just to show that i can do it and then back again to try recovery, same problem...
Anymore info you need, next time i will answer much faster, anyway there the problem it gets stuck on HTC logo forever, no restart no nothing...
ithen said:
Sorry for the insane delay.
That did not work either, anyone else have any idea what to do, installing through PD98IMG.zip files seams not to work, will at this point do anything.
I'am a student so buying a new one is out of the question.

when you flashed PD98IMG.zip does it give you a cid error?. If this is the error then a gold card needs to be made for your device first, then you flash the RUU.
Back again.
No CID error, its skips something called TP when i try to flash it.
I can use any simcard, its an unbranded phone i believe.
And also if it is to any help, when i plug my charger in the phone and then back out again, the little orange led keeps emitting light, as if it stills charging.
My English is not very good.
I want to know what did you do for it before its stuck in a boot loop?
You can get into HBOOT and connect the phone to the computer,then try to run RUU.Before you do this,make sure you have make golden card.
Try another pd zip..i came across a few corrupt ones,the answers in this site somewhere alterbatively google the sentence you want the answer to..or the key words,if the systems still working theres a 98% chance youll get it going boot loops from what i see are just a file or something causing chaos..once its gone voila.
Good luck

Enter hboot and paste exactly what it says in there.
SHIP AND ENG don't matter as long as it's S-OFF. If you can't access recovery and if you're unable for some reason to flash a PDimg, download AAHK and use it to unroot. That will hopefully get you into the stock ROM and S-ON of course.
Use AAHK again to root. You will still have access to your stock ROM.
Now here's the tricky part. If the phone won't boot at all that probably means there's nothing to boot at all. Happened to me a lot of times. If you can still get into hboot then don't panic. See if AAHK will help you out.
