1st one who killed the HD2 ;-( - HD2 General

I just HSPL my new T-Mobile 2.08 US HD2.
Worked soooo smooth. Thanks for that. Now the tricky part, I did not read detailed enough that the rom I flashed was a 1.66 based one.
now the HD2 is dead, no powerup, bootloader mode, reset or chargeing led.
Any way to safe it or back to t-mobile?
Thanks Guys

=( omg.... i was impatient too... I was downlaoding all these roms but remembered i didnt install the new HSPL thing.. and then i read the posts -_- sigh.. sorry man

I am so sorry man. Your best bet is to hope you can find a station where they'll work some factory reset magic on there...
Yeah. Sorry to hear that. I wish the SPL program would warn the user or refuse to install if it detected an old 1.66.

No brother
YWell Brother u and me both have to play the old hood wink on tmobile and play the it just died face so we can get a new one. Fortunatly we have 14 days if you kept your receipt, to take it back and nag saying it just shut of for no reason. Its hell of bricked, even HTC would have to completely take it apart to fix it, so no trace of anything would ever come back. the bad thing is their sold out everywhere till Tuesday or Wednesday. But ill wait its a bad ass phone. woooo! where do you live dude? in vegas?

I have read that you can microwave it for a few seconds and that kills it stone dead. No way they can tell what you flashed.
This is a very extreme method and an absolute LAST RESORT!!!!

remove your battery for 3 minutes and put it again and try ti lunch boot loader

Have you tried the SD card flash method.
You need to copy the original Tmob ROM file to your blank SD card, rename it to leoimg.nbh (i Think), and then try start in bootloader.

Which hspl did you flash and which rom?

the new one for 1024 T-Mobile 2.08.
Thanks for all replies,
For the Microvawe version, if you smash it with a hammer, has the same effect. Go Green.
No kidding, I ask for a repair solution not a Brick it more.
Bootloader is not working at all, so no SD way as well. And a rom based on 1.66. Smart as I am, I deleted the file.
Like I said, HSPL was great. Was still working after that.

I laughed my ass off so hard at that comment!

So I got it exchanged, I did the Hard spl and its fine so far. Still working.
Dont want to brick it again,
Is there any cooked German Rom that I can use on a USA T-Mobile HD2 based on 2.08?
To make my HD2 in German language?

(post removed, wrong thread)

This is why I'm choosing to wait a little bit before jumping in and flashing my TMOUS HD2. I don't have the 'cajones' to be a guinea pig! I'm waiting until everything plays out and the process is tried and proven safe.
For now I'm enjoying the stock TMOUS Rom, and applying tweaks here and there. I'm running into bugs and annoyances here and there, but don't feel a strong urge to flash roms just yet...especially when so many others are having issues!

Yeah, when it comes to the software side of this phone, I just take it all in with the regular rom and see what I REALLY want out of it as far as options and whatnot. THEN I get to the rom goodies after a lot of review and feedback.
Hardware I'll dissect the guts if I have to anyday though.

I think you'd be much better off browsing all the thread titles in the ROM Development section looking for a rom that is [GER] and [2.08+]/TMOUS based
As long as it's been taken off a TMOUS device, it will work on your TMOUS device

he he. I know it's hilarious. As I said, absolutely last resort if you are taking it back for warranty cos if they find any spl other than factory one your warranty is void straight off the bat. Nice to see you got a replacement without problems.
I just read that advice from another post here on the forum and it is way extreme!!!
As posted above - any rom based on tmous original roms should work. Good luck

YOU might use BSB Tweaks and choose manila language in the menu.
I bet it is based on the tool that downloads the needed manila files from the internet.
Try searching for the tool here on xda or use BSB tweak (but there is a solution to get it fully working german!)

Flashing Roms and Themes for T-Mo USA's HD2?

I figured I would ask the question before anyone else does if it hasn't been asked before.
I am going to get the phone on release day, I am Currently an Android user and I've decided to get a second phone to play around with and was trying to find out if maybe the processes of flashing roms on the T-mo USA HD2 are going to be the same as the Euro HD2 and if maybe if anyone (I know its not officially out yet) has already tried doing anything of the sort to their US HD2.
I am aware that the phone isn't out, but I'm maybe trying to put this post here for maybe future reference or maybe to use as a guide as to how to apply roms or themes on the US T-Mo HD2.
Thank you in advance and I'm sorry if this maybe considered a noob question. But unfortunately I'm a noob to the hacking of WinMo world but like i said previously I'm an Android guy and that is how i originally got introduced to XDA
has been asked and at this point we cannot flash roms to the us hd2 the simplest way because...
it has a new spl so we cannot use the current hard spl.
but! there is sspl which allows you to flash roms but not radios.
reccomend just wait til the new spl comes out since your a noob afterall
Wait, so SSPL works fine?
look through my posts theres a couple about this. in one I was told sspl works

Thanks for the help, I feel like I'm starting all over again, like its a new learning process all over again lol oh and thanks for rubbing it in that I'm a noob I'm gonna go kill myself now, you see what you did? lol j/k
Yeah i figured I'm jumping the gun a little since the phone isn't really out yet, I guess I'm just excited to hack it, thanks for the info.
yeah im in the same boat, i picked it up already and its been weird using a stock rom but it actually works pretty well i just want 6.5.x back

I've just bricked mine. Don't make the same mistake!!!!

I flashed laurentius29 rom to my tmous leo.
Result - expensive paperweight.
Already exchanged it in tmob store telling them it just died. I've had it for just two days.
Seriously! Don't attempt to flash non-tmous roms to your tmous phones.
I thought they are fos saying you can brick your phone doing that.
I thought I knew what I was doing with my quite long winmo history. (Samsung i730, Kaiser, Rafael and Leo just recently)
do you have hspl installed?
Doesn't matter as non-TMOUS ROMs won't work on a TMOUS HD2
gees.....better buy openline HTC HD2...
Just to make sure:
Flashing a TMOUS ROM to a NON-TMOUS device won't brick your device?
With Hspl you should be able to recover... ROMS dont touch the bootloader. And without Hspl you wouldnt be able to flash..
It is not the fault of his ROM but your choice of a ROM not compatible. I think his base is 1.72 or 1.66 and with drivers from this same build. I would ask him to be sure.
Make sure you flash a ROM with 2.10 base and you should be ok.
Sorry to hear about your device but at least you were lucky enough to be in the US and they changed it out quickly for you.
Hi Stank0,
I'm very sorry to read this and will make an anouncement immidiatly that the rom isn't compatible with the T-Mob US model.
Sorry to ask you as you got damage enough but can you tell me the procedure you followed flashing the rom?
Thank you.

After I flashed HSPL2, I tried a few ROMs. 2x NRG's and Kumar's. They all worked OK but I wanted to try yours bcz I used to have it for quite a while on my Rafael. (before I switched 2 NRG for some reason I don't remember).
I always flash over old flash without going through all the "necessary" steps and it almost always worked good. I went through flashing stock first only when something went wrong. (very rarely)
So I did the same thing with your ROM flashing it over NRG's. (Via USB)
Obviously, my poor tmous LEO couldn't handle all that "Ultimate Power" and after the flash was succesfully finished, it never started up.
No light, no sound.
First I thought I'll just get into a bootloader and reflash.
But after I found out that I can't get even bootloader up, I realized I'm pretty much screwed.
The phone didn't react to ANYTHING.
When I plugged it up to my laptop, it tried to install new driver for it but of course unsuccessfully.
I've had quite a hard time to find a store with HD2 in stock. Apparently they sell better than fresh rolls.
Oh by the way Laurentius26, I don't blame you for it at all. It was my fault not listening what wise people say. From now on, if it doesn't say "TMOUS COMPATIBILE", I'm not touching it.
And that what I recommend others to do too.
Unless you want to live dangerously and have a nice but quite expensive paperweight.

So let me get this straight, you flash hspl on your device to flash custom ROMs. If you brick a phone, is it completely useless forever in eternity? (besides being a paperweight) Is there anyway to recover it at all? At all, at all?
Hi Stank0,
Thanks for letting me know.
Flashing a rom shouldn't brick your device like that, even if the flash went all ok or not it should always be possible
to reflash (recover) as mentioned earlier that flashing a rom doesn't touch the bootloader.
Dit you try to take out the battery for half an hour and then try to get in bootloader?
Anyway I'm very sorry your device is bricked .
To make sure I've updated my rom threads with a warning to avoid this in future.

this is bad, im sorry for your loss
though flashing a rom doesnt screw up the bootloader
Problem is T-Mob US model has different NAND.
XDA opened two section as well as the hardware is different.
* HD2 ROM Development
* T-Mob USA HD2 ROM Development
I have no T-Mob USA model and I'm not 100% sure if the device is bricked because
of flashing the rom so it's better to take precautionary measures to avoid this in future.

It sounds more like coincidence.
I can't imagine Leo includes bootleader in his rom, so it shouldn't have effected the spl at all.
Thanks Fards,
Indeed there's no SPL (bootloader) in the rom so if a user flashed HSPL first and then the rom it doesn't touch the bootloader and it should be always possible to get in bootmodus after a bad flash and reflash the rom.
It worried and made me doubt for 2 days but this makes no sense the device is bricked because of flashing the rom it must be coinsidence.
There are enough stickies how to flash a rom and I've included rom flash instructions in my rom thread so I'm going to remove the warning.
@Stank0, I feel sorry your device is bricked but I hope you understand my decission.
Grtz Leo

re-bump. can anyone answer this?
I agree with everyone else. It wasn't the flash-it was the flasher. He didn't follow the basics. Wrong rom, flashed repeatedly while bypassing vital steps. It wasn't bricked-he got jumpy. He shouldn't flash if he can't follow simple tutorials and stickies.

Is my phone bricked?!

I cannot turn it on at all, i tried to doing hard reset and plugging it into power but it wont turn on
did you try flashing anything?.. if you flashed the wrong type of wrong/radio then yeah your phone is probbably dead.
Also try removing the battery and putting it back in carefully..check the battery connectors when putting the battery back in..
yea i flashed it, what do i do now?
what rom did you flash..
i flashed leon 2.2 and it worked fine but there was a bug with it and i did task 29, and then flashed leon 2.2 again. That worked fine and i decided to go back to original leo 1.48 rom and thats when it stopped working
oooohh..yeah..its dead... the thing is.. the 1.48 rom is made for the Europe 512 Leo..not your tmobile 1024 leo.. i beleive there is a sticky thread you can read in this section about it..but otherwise.. yeah sorry man your hd2 is officially dead..and there is nothing you can do about it beside ask tmobile for another unit..
sorry...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668347 this is the thread i am talking about..do give it a read..maybe try it.. i have no idea..but as it looks so far your chances are not looking good..

It took me about 3 weeks of reading before I finally decided to flash last week. I almost bricked my phone on the 1st week when I tried flashing with 2.10 SPL, my instinct told me that I will brick it - so I stopped.
Then, I saw GTX 1.7.1 and toyed around with that for the next 2 weeks. I finally went back to SPL reading and ka-ching! Even though I still had newb questions after the flash - lol. Then came the part where I feared flashing Radios and ROMs. I think it was a great learning lesson, ahehe.
I loved the phone too much :x

you can put your fear aside on that score. if you try flashing a cooked rom with spl 2.10 it refuses. no brick, no problem.

I need to flash the original telus rom but i cant find it
Thanks

I got through that guide as well, but when it comes time to flash the rom, it hangs at 0% and then gives me error 262. I go through recovery but it still doesn't work. I dont have hardSPL either, is there any way to get HardSPL from bootloader? Also, when i try task 28 in mtty again, i get :
Format start
Fill RSVD information for block 351 to 384
TAG NOT FOUND !!! NOT CLEAR STORAGE !!!
Format end
also, the telus rom you can get from a search.
hm... Thats weird
i cant find the telus rom
I can only find the raw form, and i think you need to cook it or smthn
Anyway, if it doesnt work for you, it wont work for me either, cause we are having exactly the same problem.
It would be awesome if we can Install hard spl from bootloader.
But no1 seems to be able to help us.
We are the only users who are bothering to reply as it seems.
Is it an official signed rom you need or the recooked raws? (Not sure how successful I'll be but if it can help I will see if I can recook them.) As for the official signed rom, I haven't been able to find one myself as of yet.
we need the official telus signed rom
Because we didnt hard spl our phones, we're stack.
So either the official signed rom, or we need to find a way to hard spl our phones through the tricolor bootloader
Any ideas?
I'm stuck at the same with with my Mobilicity Snap. I went through the HardSPL and it said everything was successful but now my phone is bricked because I failed to notice SPL 1.24 still on the tri color screen. I also would like to know if there is a way to use MTTY, some other tool, or get hardspl onto the phone through the bootloader. HardSPL hangs on 0% from the boot loader for me.
Also tried MTTY task 28, task 29, reboot, reflash to no avail.
We all seem to have the same problem, I'm surprised it hasn't been addressed yet.
I guess there's no luck finding a factory rom for the s510 series...?
You guys are braver than me, I won't attempt a flash unless I have an out waiting.
Come one ! Really there is no fix for the file with the bad code ?

[Q] Sending it back -- warranty

Hello all! I'm so sorry if you feel like you've been seeing this topic everywhere and I have too, except for one thing.. I haven't gotten one, clear answer to it.
My phone had been acting horribly the past month: freezing, then frozen after battery pull at the stick together sign, then loading up again, then freezing. It would only work if I could be quick enough to turn Sense off. I love Sense though. and for the few months before that I'd had it, it had been working perfectly with Kumar's Premium ROM. Now, I have already received a new("like new") HD2 from T-Mobile because it was still covered under warranty, HOWEVER, since I had flashed many custom ROMs, I had to take HSPL off. I did this by flashing the stock TMobile upgrade (2.13) from their website from my SD card.
My question is: Is there anything else I have to make sure to take off the phone other than HSPL and custom ROM? When I go to the Bootloader, it shows that there is no HSPL and only SPL 1.42something. Is there anything else that can cause me to lose the warranty once they get the phone itself, because from what the lady told me, if they determine that the phone isn't under warranty, they can charge a pretty hefty amount.
if bootloader really shows spl
1.42something

then you don't have a tmous, you have
a regular hd2.
you need to double check that before you go any further.
Now this is gonna be hilarious if he got a refurb unit from T-mo, that somebody had previously flashed a euro ROM/spl on!
lol, and of course tmo would say 'oh no, that couldnt happen, its YOUR fault', hehe

Sorry for the confusion..now I feel dumb. But no, the SPL is: 2.10.0000

it should be fine then.
if you wanna double check, download the 2.13 rom from tmous website and flash that via usb.

Is that necessary if I did that through SD card first? I'm only being a pain on this post because the phone won't even stay on long enough for me to do/check anything so I wanted to ask if there was anything else. I think I might just send it back and see what happens.!
Thank you all
no, not necessary. the 2.10.0000 is the important part. it will be fine.
Thank you very much for the help
Case closed and now so is this thread
