The following instructions :
will void all warranties of your phone!
will erase all your userdata!
will change your current ROM/SPL!
will change your current splash screen!
could brick your phone!
Proceed at your own risk!
The "trick" in fixing a perfected SPL is to fastboot a goldcard which contains a sappimg.nbh/zip that has :
an non-perfected SPL (preferably an engineerings SPL).
a ROM with a version that is HIGHER than your current ROM version.
Steps
Create a Goldcard.
Copy the required sappimg.nbh/zip to the Goldcard.
Boot your phone while holding the VOLUME-DOWN key.
Press the ACTION KEY (=trackball) to start the update.
Wait until the update completes and press the ACTION KEY (=trackball) to reboot your phone.
(Upgrade to the rooted ROM of your choice).
NBH/ZIP
ROM v2.53.707.2 (Engineerings SPL v1.33.2010) - MD5 : F9674D19BE5F949D0D9DC99714D210E3

THANKS ekindangen you rock! , btw what are the chances of bricking of phone ? , just worried abit, noobie here
Amon_RA:
i successfully created a goldcard and i flashed my MyTouch too, but i kept getting "failed" when i tried to fastboot the recovery image. This was using the original sappimg.zip provided in the 'how-to' instructions.
Should i retry with one of the higher NBH/ZIPs?
Does this work with 1.33.2006 as well

1.33.2006 is an engineerings SPL... it is already "non-perfected"
So this would work for the mytouch 1.33.0006?
HMmm it dint not ask me for the upgrade, i successful created the goldcard and put in sappimg.zip file it in, booted holding power+volume down, it doesnt ask me for upgradation

Try it with a normal SD card, if that one picks up the sappimg.zip it means that your goldcard is corrupted/bad.

Oh yeah thanks it picked it up , i have a sandisk and a some card by the name kingmax, so both these wont work ? which brand is preferrable ?
Flashing done, i have a s-off spl now \0/, how do i load a custom rom now?! can you please point me to the right direction. A ROM with all google apps
ok so this isnt for 1.33.0006????? never got answered besides its an engineering spl. this means?
can anybody tell if now a hero rom could be put on this htc magic?
This method is only for 32A?
Or both 32A and 32B ？
this is great!
Glad I waited now for a better method for doing this. I almost did the goldcard with the other rom that was originally posted. This way I get a new ROM with no issues I can see. Much better solution. Thanks everyone. Today I buy the sd cards and a card reader here in Chennai and go play with the solution and new rom I've chosen. I have a second magic phone that was bought for me I flashed earlier with a Hero rom and I really like it. The first phone was bought by my company for use; but after seeing what was not on it, was really disappointed with Airtel.
Thanks everyone! This is the solution worth waiting for.
Man why does all custom roms get stuck at loading screen ?. I tried using RAv1.2.0 in Fastboot mode(without actually flashing it to phone) and then i use the "update from zip" option from it to load the new custom rom. it completes installation. Reboots. And then it gets stuck at second HTC Android Logo!!! tried two Roms
Amon Ra's RAv1.1.0H-signed-update
JACxHERO variant Hero ROM
What am i doing wrong? Is there a proper tutorial for flash rom properly. Do i need to flash my SPL to Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2005-signed ?
Got it all done
The whole goldcard thing took me a few tries. Discovered that the sandisk that shipped with my Airtel India Magic would not work so got a few new cards and a card reader. I had to redo the goldcard a few times and I had gotten the whole cid thing wrong somehow so I redid that and got a new goldcard.img. I had to be a bit patient holding down the action key also.
Finally, was able to apply the non perfected engineering over the airtel and then this very nice rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538645
Very nice seeing the Android in Blue letters when I rebooted the phone, having root on the phone, etc. Seeing the Android Market on the phone for the first time makes it all nicer. I'm glad I waited to get a way that allows me to try different stuff. Thanks everyone.
BTW, did all this on Ubuntu Linux. Only windows involved was the QMAT program running in Wine. Yay!

Hi sebastian.w,
I need a little more information here.
1) Did you root prior to attempting to install this ROM, if so what method did you use?
2) When you boot into recovery (Home+Power), does it show the android in the background with indicators you have cyanogen's 1.4 recovery?

Ok, that's you're problem.
You have not rooted. You can not simply install a rooted ROM without first rooting the phone.
The easiest way to get your phone back at this point is to install the CRB43 cupcake t-mobile pumped out.
Give me a couple minutes while I get this uploaded somewhere for you. I'll post back in just a few, sit tight.

Ok, now MAKE SURE you do this exactly.
First off, please MAKE SURE you have plenty of battery on your G1. If you are unsure, then power it off and plug it into the charger and let it charge for at least an hour.
Once you're sure you got plenty of battery, do the following ...
Make sure your sdcard is formatted as FAT32.
Download this file http://koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/G1/DREAMIMG-RC7.zip
Unzip it.
There will be a file called DREAIMG.NBH, copy this to your sdcard.
Now boot into the SPL by pressing (Camera+Power) at the same time, you should see a rainbow screen. If it sees the file properly on your sdcard, it should ask you to perform the update. Proceed with the update and MAKE SURE you don't power off and let it finish completely.
This will bring your phone back to RC7 (pretty old version) but at least it will be back.
When you get this far let me know!

Ok,
I verified, that is the error you would receive when attempting to flash an DREAIMG.nbh on the wrong phone locale type.
All I can suggest at this point is to copy the DREAIMG.NBH RC-29 file to your sdcard again, overwrite it, and make sure it's called DREAIMG.NBH and perform the steps again.
If that doesn't work, then you need to try to RC-7 DREAIMG.NBH file again.
One of those files should definitely work.
Let me know.

To be honest, I am not sure. But it was my understanding that the RC7 should work on a like yours. That's why I recommended it.
I've never seen any other DREAIMG.nbh files for the G1.
Saw this while searching, this might be your case ...

Hi,
Check out my bootloader screen, this doesnt look ok to me
Tried loading severel older radio's / rom's they all fail after 1, 4 or 19 % with the second error included as a jpg!
Can someone help me fix my 2nd HTC HD2 ?
TIA
Most recently, there seem to be quite a few people having issues with defective bootloaders. Somewhere in another thread, some guys actually were able to bring back the correct SPL with this method:
1. Took out the battery for about 30 seconds.
2. Put one of the LEOIMG.NBH on storage card
3. After putting the battery held the volume down button and pressed power button.
4. It went into HSPL mode straight away and started loading the win 6.5 OS.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The key difference and important point is to take out the battery, keep it out for a while, and pushing the bootloader buttons while re-inserting the battery (yes, can be a little tricky).
The LEOIMG.NBH should be a ROM which is made for your device, eg. the stock ROM which was original on your device when it was brand new. If you´ve got a Leo1024 (US device), please make sure twice you´ve got a correct ROM. A wrong Radio ROM can completely brick your device, only professionals could fix that.
In case you don´t know where to get the leoimg.nbh file: Download the stock ROM for your device, decompress the RUU.exe file with WinRar (or a similar program), rename the nbh file which you´ll find in the decompressed files to leoimg.nbh, there you go.
The SD card should be freshly formatted FAT32.
Hope it works that way...
Thanks, havent tried it with the battery out for longer then 3 seconds. When i put a stock rom on the sd it just says loading, then checking and then it boots back to the bootloader!!! Gonna try it again but keep the battery out longer.

Just some questions.
- Witch SD-Card do you used? a 2GB SD-card is preferable. (And be format by FAT32.)
- Witch Stock Rom did you use?? Did you download it from the HTC webpage by using your S/N?
- And I don't know if you know it, but you need to rename the RUU_signed.nbh to leoimg.nbh.
1GB
RUU_Leo_S_HTC_NLD_3.14.404.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship

It says loading, then instead of giving the screen with all the options that you see in the youtube video it says checking and on top it shows the following numbers 00058002

Then i did the HRDSPL bit and it showed we hacked it, then i did the magldr shizzle and it got screwed!
This is the screen is get btw!
Cant believe that this is it? I can toss the phone away now? Anyone?
This might be alil' stupid, but have you tried Task29 ?

It reads updating from " " to "2.13.531" . If it does not detect a number, does that mean because the software update failed, it erased the software inside?
I downloaded it from the T-mobile website. The file reads: T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_2.13.531.1(2)

lol, fair enough.
ok, take the ROM.exe (that you downloaded from t mo,, it is definitely a tmous, right? green send key?)
anyway, right click the .exe file,, choose rename, change the .exe to .zip, then double click the zip file to open it, find Ruu_signed.nbh, extract it, rename it to leoimg.nbh , copy it to an Sd card that is 4GB or smaller (important, bigger cards won't work)
card into phone, reboot into bootloader, flashing should staRt. tell us what the blue writing on grey background says.if you don't see it you did something wrong.

If you are absolutely sure that the ROM you downloaded (and the radio it contains) are the right ones for your phone, then go to the boot loader and see what it says for SPL. If you do not find HSPL, flash HSPL 2.08 and then try the ROM.
Flashing aborting or getting stuck early on is an indicator of the flashing process bring stopped by SPL...

Samsamuel can tell you better but it sorta sounds like yet another stuck radio seeing as it is hanging at the 5% to the 8% area during flashing. I am not sure exactly when but hang in there and let Samsamuel post again he can give you your list of options better than I, hope you get it going again my friend.

If it was a SPL issue then that means it is a CID or a MID issue and if it is that then the Rom would not even start to flash at all no matter if it is via RUU or SD card. If the CID or the MID is wrong it would through a error saying something like "CID mismatch" or "Model I'D mismatch" when trying to flash.

I do not want to highjack this thread so after this post I will be contacting you via PM, or if you use G Talk you can hit me up on that. If you have a TMOUS HD2 I have the 3.14 stock RUU for theTMOUS HD2 on my computer and I can upload it for you if you want. But I think the ROM you have is the same as the one I have.As far as checking your radio version if you can not boot your device at least to the T-Mobile screen with the red text at the bottom left corner then you can no check your radio version.

do you have any facebook account sir,,maybe we can contact each other thru facebook..,yeah maybe that should work 3.14 ruu sir..,can you upload it on mediafire sir if its ok to you..and i cant go thru that t mobile screen with red text sir, when i open my phone it just stuck on black screen with a message "software update failed please try again.." and whats up with the vibrating?? my phone keeps vibrating..
yea I'm with TMacgnolia, , sounds like a stuck radio (albeit it's sticking earlier in the process than expected, perhaps indicating the stuck spl variant.)
combined with the vibrating I'd be thinking hardware, so I'd be trying sd flashing using the freezer trick.

sir yeah we manage to install a custom rom but the problem now is i think its on the cpu..,is there any way to fix this hardware problem..,
I could use some help, having the problem described earlier. I can't get past the 4color boot loader screen, - for a fraction of a second it goes to the insalling screen then comes back to 4color with "Serial" in the white.
Here is what I have on my HD2: Android 2.3.5 Radio 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14
Here is what I have tried to install through sd card: RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.13.531.1_Radio_15.39.50.07U_2.10.50.26_Signed_LEO_Ship.zip (renamed .zip, was .exe) and T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_3.14.531.1.zip (renamed .zip, was .exe)
I tried 3 different sd cards; (2) 2 gig cards (1) 4gig cards. I reformated several times before copying and renaming the nbh file.
What next? Thanks
just to confirm, you rename the exe to zip, open the zip, extract Ruu_signed.nbh, rename that to leoimg.nbh, copy that t sd and reboot, correct?
also, please confirm that you do in fact have a tmous.
the brief flash usually means the file was renamed incorrectly, for example depending on the file extension settings, it has been known for a file to end up getting called leoimg.nbh.nbh
the fact that it flickers means it is detecting something, but finding a problem.

Thanks. That makes sense. I can't check for 6 or 7 hours until I get home for the day. I'm using W7, and have never really gotten how to view the real extension on a file, not like the good old DOS days. yes I have a tmous. After requesting the help, I tried the same card in my brother's HD2 that I need to restore as well, and got the same response, so it has to be the card/name not my HD2. I'll post back when I check it out. Thanks again.

I renamed the file, making sure there was only one .nbh extension. Still not working. I tried it with both tmos roms, I reformated the card, I tried it on both phones. Obviously, I have done something wrong with the file, but read and re-read the instructions and I can't find what it is.
Any ideas would be great.
I downloaded Shipped ROM. I extract it and rename RUU_signed.nbh file into LEOIMG.nbh
After that, i copy the LEOIMG.nbh file into sd card. Restart hd2 by press power off + volumn down and process update
It can't install RADIO and failed by this step(pls see attach file).
Please help me to overcome this matter.
Thanks!

Which HD2 version do you have?
What is the name of the ROM that you tried to flash?
Do you have HSPL? (<has nothing to do with the error, just out of curiosity)
How big is your SD card?

My HD2 model is T8585.
The ROM i used: RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_3.14.479.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship.exe
HSPL 2.08
What can i do now?
That should have worked, you might have a borked radio.
Try the flash again, if it fails again try a custom ROM (that does not include a radio) and report back.

By which HD2 version, I meant European or Tmobile one.
Anyway, it doesn't matter now.
Just flash the same ROM using HSPL. (double-click on the_rom.exe)
(Additional Step: If you want to remove HSPL completely, run HSPL4 and select an SPL from the drop down menu)
(welcome back, orange kid )

I'm sure my phone is broken down in RADIO. I tried to set up RADIO in some ways:
Download shipped ROM, extract and rename to leoimg.nhb, then copy it to sd card
Download RADIO file indiviually, and set tup, it also error.
You can see the attach file for further details. And give me some guides to overcome this.

Google "stuck radio" and prepare for disappointment.
Things worth trying -
1 SD flash of CORRECT stock rom after
freezing phone for half an hour (Freezer trick)
