Re-flash back to default ROM/ RADIO and remove HSPL - HD2 General

Hi,
I'm running a custom ROM on my HD2 with HSPL. But I need to send the unit back, how do I re-flash, given I already have the rom, but also remove the HSPL from it?
Thanks,
Kieron

extract the LEOIMG.NBH from the .exe. copy it to the sd-card and install from there. Don't remember the keypress-sequence, but think it was to hold VOL-down while turning it on. If it'a shipped ROM, The original SPL will be restored after flash.

what he meant was extract ruu_signed.nbh from the exe, rename it leoimg.nbh and flash from sd card.

Excactly. Sorry my bad, forgot signedRUU.nbh. Thanks for the correction.

Awesome, thanks all!

extract from where?... from the original exe ROM?...
Kieron... did it work?...

Yes, the original ROM

Extract from the original ROM (I use 7Zip) and I'll tell you when it finishes!

uhm, guys, it's all already explained, in very clear terms, in the ROM dev forum, in the stickied thread "flashing for noobs" by mskip

All worked perfectly, thanks all.

if you revert to stock rom is there a limitation to prevent you from doing hspl again?...

This by no means can be called "Searching".
You should actually try it sometimes, it might lead to some insights.

I tryed this but no restore the original SPL
you have to flash from your SD card as far as I know
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button.
How to take the RUU_signed.nbh file from the official shipped ROM file as most files are in the exe format.
you can extract the .exe using winrar
Sorry to be a dummy but does the shipped ROM package include the original SPL? So I just flash the orig. ROM back thru sd card and that's it? Is it that simple?
And after doing so there won't be any sign of having used HSPL?

correct, but make sure you have the correct stock rom, not just any old official rom.
Thanks a lot for explanation! I've got the stock ROM ready as backup...

I'd really appreciate if someone who tested this as working, to downgrade to SPL 1.42 from a higher version one, reported whether it's working (I do hope) or not.
I don't need it for the time being, but it would be nice to know there's a fallback opportunity in case something goes awry...

If you have HardSPL on your phone then flashing a stock rom will overwrite the SPL with the stock one included with the Rom. Tried, Tested, Working.
Taken from my Rom Flashing Guide:
NOTE: The only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from microSD card
* You can also use this method to flash back your Stock Rom and Stock SPL that you originally had on your phone*
- Download a shipped Rom from *HERE*
- Rename the extension to .zip
- open it with winzip and extract the RUU_signed.nbh file to a folder
- Rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and copy it to the root of a microSD card thats been formatted to FAT32
- Insert your storage card into your phone
- Enter Bootloader and follow onscreen instructions to flash
If you already have a higher Stock SPL than 1.42 on your device then you can flash a stock rom using the goldcard method (if you have a goldcard that is) to downgrade your SPL as long as its not 2 or above.
If you have SPL2 or above then you are stuck and cant downgrade to anything.

That was the meaning of my question... going back to stock 1.42spl form hardspl is not a problem, and I actually asked you this very thing in your flashing for noobs thread maybe a month ago
But I was somehow hoping that you could use the microsd flash method to overwrite a newer stock SPL back to 1.42, and you just crushed my dreams
At least now I know for sure

tmo uk - get your stock rom from 'leo official roms thread' first post first link
either:-
1 - right click the stock rom .exe, choose extract here. This will give several files, one of which is ruu_signed.nbh.
2 - rename ruu_signed.nbh to leoimg.nbh and copy to fat32 sd card
3 - power off, power on with vol down pressed to enter bootloader, which will automatically detect the leoimg and flash the phone, resetting the rom, the radio and the spl back to stock.
Job done
OR
1 - run the stock .exe file over usb, which will reset the rom and the radio back to stock
2 - run hspl2 on the PC and choose 1.42.0000. This is the stock spl.
Job Done.

Restoring to stock

Quick one:
I've got the WWE HD2, sending it to HTC repair tomorrow so I need to flash it back to all stock firmware. What exactly do I need to do ? I'm asking cause I've heard of some bricked devices cause by restoring to stock the wrong way and wanted to be sure.
Do I need to flash back first the SPL from HSPL or the ROM to 1.66 I've had ?
flash 1.66 rom, then run hspl2 and choose 1.66.0000.
Where can I find one to download ? the ROM that is
leo official roms thread in rom development section (it will be on page 1,2 or 3, or use the stickies sticky at the top of the list), first post, first link, 1,66 folder.
Ok cool, but which one should I get ? what are the differences ?
just pick a stock rom that has been released in your region. Take the .nbh, rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and drop it on the root of your storage card.
Put the phone into bootloader, and it will flash the stock ROM and relock the phone, all in one step.
I've downloaded the most popular ROM there and executed it, I didn't move any files to my SD. So now I've got the stock ROM loading but the it's not with the original SPL yet right ? I need to flash that back too ?

Sorry I'm such a noob but the disclaimer says :
5) Uninstallation
Only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from SD card.
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button.
So I need to put this file on my device first and then use the HSPL2 utility ?
no..thats only for HSPL.
hspl2 can install SPL's as well.
so, you've got your stock rom and only need your stock spl...
do, what samsamuel says!

Thank you, just wanted to be sure I didn't brick anything.

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.

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

[Q] Issue with HTC HD2 while flashing for Android

Hey there!
I got some trouble while flashing my HD2 with Android. I processed after a step-to-step instruction using NAND Toolkit.
After i`ve installed the 3.03. HSPL i wiped it (task29).
Then i installed the Radio 2.15.50.14 ROM. At this point i think something went wrong:
The MAGLDR installation runs trough, but after that the MAGLDR Menu doens't shows up.
Can u tell me, where i made a mistake or how i can completely delete my HSPL-Version to start over?
Greets and thanks,
Pascal

I tried it before, but since then i always get the message, that the usb connection failed. So because of that i asked, if it is possible to delete the HSPL completely or change the version.

Not to be rude, but all of the information can be found via google or xda-search (you can find custom HD2 search by following the link in my sig.).
Edit:
To flash a rom from SD-card, download a compatible official winmo rom, rename .ruu to .zip and extract the .nbh file. Rename to LEOIMG.nbh, put it on the root of your SD card and boot.
To install HSPL, use the HD2ToolKit (google it) and use the "Install HSPL" option.

Make sure not to flash a radio! Or else you might brick if you flash the wrong one
Hi there again!
Everything worked good so far, i got the standard SPL VErsion, flashed to 2.08 HSPL, was able to install MAGLDR and so on.
After installing a ROM now it stucks at the htc-Logo. For the repartion i used 250 MB system size and 45 mb cache. Could that be a problem?
And i supect another thing. The phone was telekom branded and bought in Germany, but i had to choose EU or Telekom US. I decided for Telekom US. Could this be the problem? I also read things about wrong SD-size but mine is 16 GB and should work fine...
So can you tell me what my problem could be?
Thanks
What ROM did you install?
You must repartition the NAND according to the ROM, not from your mind.
And are you sure the ROM doesn't require an sd-ext partition?
Did you choose the correct option (i.e. Nand, or NativeSD)
Tmo and Eu are basically: Tmo will install ALL to NAND, whereas EU will install some to NAND and some to SD.
