Hello all,
I recently purchased HD2, the first thing I did was going to HTC website and downloaded the latest ROM Version: 1.66.415.3, now my SPL version is 1.66000 XE. I searched the forum before posting this thread, but I did not find a clear post that answers my questions, and I am still a newbie in modding field, so please bare with me.
This ROM includes Arabic language support which I need, but its quite bugged, in away that most of the menus are in Arabic now, and even though I chose from the settings to have them in English, even disabling multi-language support wouldn't change the menus to English and they still are in Arabic.
More over some bugs, like the Arabic supported Keyboard will always play a very high click sounds, even if I reduce the volume, put it on Silent or Vibration, everything will be silent except for the Arabic Keyboard would still play the clicks.
So i thought there must be a fix for it, and the best possible way to do it in my opinion is Via installing HSPL, now the problem is I can no where find how I am able to Roll back to SPL 1.42 so that I can install HSPL, since i have SPL 1.66, So my question is, Does anyone know how and where can I roll back to SPL 1.42 so that I can install HSPL ?
My second question, Is there any Custom Rom that have full Arabic support meaning I can type and read Arabic Websites/Messeging/Email/MMS and such ? I saw Seatone's ROM that indicates Arabic Support, but I cant find anywhere to what extent it is ?
My third question is after rolling back to SPL 1.42 from SPL 1.66 and installing HSPL (assuming that this process is possible), Can I update to Newer SPL and still have HSPL installed ? or I would have to remove the HSPL in order to update my SPL ?
My last question is regarding RADIOS, can I install multiple RADIOS or I can only have one installed at a time ? Also for Backing up my ROM on my device (assuming I dont have the software on the PC), how do I do it ?
Eventually thanks for your time and consideration to help me in this matter, looking forward to hear some answers !!
All the official roms can be download here.

once download, I think you can just follow the procedures for removing HSPL to put it back to a standard factory state.
Thanks for the reply, but i think you got me wrong.
I dont have HSPL on my device currently, I have Factory SPL version 1.66, I want to install HSPL, but in order to do so I need SPL 1.42, the link you provided only includes SPL 1.43 ... and from what I read I HAVE to HAVE SPL 1.42 in order to install HSPL, please correct me if I am wrong ?

Help
Good Night.
I have a HTC HD2 with the 1.66.0000 XE SPL, and with the following ROM "RUU_Leo_HTC_NLD_1.66.404.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship"
Because i update the ROM from the HTC Website, and it gave me that ROM, after i update it i notice that it is in NLD (Nederland), now i want to install other ROM and i Can't.
I want to do HSPL but to do that i need the SPL-1.42.000, to have that SPL i have tried to install other ROMS, but it had failed all the times with the following Error ("ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDOR ID ").
Need some help with this, because e don't understand NLD (LOL), and i want to install a PTG ROM.
.
Can anyone give me a hand? I have Telstra HD2 using on ATT in the U.S. and flashed to this ROM
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U_2.04.50_22_2_Ship
When I check the bootloader it says
SPL-1.42.HSPL
However when I try to HSPL it says.
You must have SPL 1.42.0000 and errors out. I read that if I flash any shipped OEM ROM it'll put it back to 1.42.0000 but it doesn't appear to be doing that.
Any help would be appreciated I'm trying to get any HSPL on this thing. I've also tried HSPL2 to no avail. It said bad ID or something.
Thank you in advance.

There are NO 1.43 roms that will work on your tmous, you WILL permanently destroy it if you do manage to flash one. The tmous will ONLY take roms version 2.x or higher
you are very lucky that you dont have hspl installed, else it would let you flash, and your phone would be dead.
So what do we do if we have tmous and want to install HSPL?

I was just wondering if anyone in Australia has tested this new ROM on their HD2 device as I'm interested in experiences people are having with it. I got a response back from HTC that says the included versions are as follows:-
OS Version:
5.2.21869
Manila Version:
2.5.20121431.1
ROM Version:
1.72.841.0
Radio Version:
2.07.51.22.2
Protocol Version:
15.32.50.070
HTC claim that it improves SMS messenging and improves the overall touch responsiveness and software lag on the device. Can anyone confirm as I'd like to know before I make the effort to upgrade/reinstall everything. I'm also hoping phone reception and bluetooth audio has been improved in the Radio version upgrade included in this ROM.

Can't really comment on this as it did not stay on my HD2 long enough for me to find out. I can however tell you that you cannot flash HSPL from this rom. It sets your SPL to 1.66 which HSPL2 cannot seem to deal with. I had to downgrade to the older rom version and then run HSPL1.
Why do want all that terrible telstra bloat? I can tell you your phone will run much faster without it.
I don't want all the Telstra bloat, I hate it. I was encouraged when I saw the message from HTC that all carrier customisations would be removed after upgrading the ROM
If I don't go with this HTC ROM, what custom ROM do you recommend? I assume Energy?

just to correct you slightly, HSPL2 wont work on any telstra, nothing to do with the spl version, it is the telstra model ID that fails hspl2.
You are correct about HSPL needing 1.42.0000 to install though.

I like Energy but there are quite a few other roms out there. ROMs are such a personal choice. What works best for me may not be to your taste. Try a few and see how you go, Most of the chefs in here have been around for quite a while and are very experienced in cooking so you really can't go wrong. Just don't forget to HSPL your phone first and read the ROM threads regarding which radio rom will work best with their ROM.

Ahhhh, thanks for the correction and enlightenment. I had a feeling it had something to do with the model ID as that is the error message I got when trying HSPL2. Sneaky Telstra bastards....
Ditto the problem with this new Telstra update, I had the same problem. It changes the SPL so to 1.66.0000 which will block any attempt to use another ROM or HSPL. Revert back to 1.48 and you'll be OK.

if you plan on flashing cooked roms, but want to try the 1.66 update before hand, you can install HSPL first, and then when you run the .exe shipped rom (over USB), it will only change the rom and the radio, leaving HSPL installed.

Thank you very much for the info! I got the telstra model. Unfortunately, I had upgraded the ROM officially to SPL1.66. And now I cannot use either HSPL or HSPL2 to flash the device!
Can you please tell me how to revert the SPL to a older version that I can use HSPL?? Thank you very much!!!!

My device originally had SPL1.42 on it. I did not flash to HSPL. And I upgraded to SPL 1.66 by flashing an telstra official rom, which brong me a SPL 1.66. And now I am stuck because I cannot use HSPL or HSPL2 to flash the SPL. Could you please tell me how to revert the SPL to an older version (1.42) then I could use HSPL to flash it again??? Thank you very much!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just realized that I could use the SPL revert procedure to revert the SPL
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.
All I need now its theolder Telstra ship ROM with SPL 1.42. I went to htc/australia wedsite, And they only have the new ROM available for download. Is there a place to download the older ship ROM?? Thank a lot!

This is easy, you just need to flash the older Telstra rom version that uses SPL 1.42.0000. The rom you are looking for is 1.49.841.1 and I think you can download it from HTCPedia. Just ensure it is the Telstra version. Flashing this will ovewrite your current 1.66 SPL back to the correct 1.42 SPL. When you have done this you can use HSPL version 1 and it will work. I know because I did it myself a few days ago
Correct. There is a telstra 1.49 (1.48?) rom floating about, several people have used it to downgrade. Start searching!
Feeling kind

I was also told my HD2 was locked to Telstra but it was not, (I don't believe any of them are now) I can send you the rom I used if you like? HSPL2 won't work as has been said before but HSPL does.
Another option I used while trying to get the right rom/HSPL working was to use SSPL, this worked great but does not allow you to change the radio, and until you can do that there are a few roms you cant use as they don't get on with the Telstra radio.
ps. I had a lot of similar error messages along the way...
I Got it, works perfect, I used the latest T-Mobile Rom from the U.S. on my T9193 Telstra, and its beautiful..thanks everyone for all the very helpful info, I could'nt have done it without you guys and keep up the good work..

a little research would have told you that
1 - hspl2 doesnt work on any telstra
2 - you need to find the earlier telstra rom (1.48 or 1.49 i think, it does exist) flash that from sd card to downgrade your spl to 1.42.0000 and then use hspl not hspl2
Thank you very much..i will try...
As stated in the title, I'm about to flash back to the old version because the new T9193 telstra doesn't want me to install the HSPL. Anyone who's got the official ROM with 1.42 SPL for me, that's appreciated.
The only ROM I can get from the HTC website is the ROM with 1.66 SPL.
I'm not certain, but I believe this one has spl 1.42.0000

If not then just go back to your current rom.
that is the right one, telstra 1.49 has spl 1.42
by flash your ROM in this case, is the unlock neccessary? If I understand right, is the unlocking means I can get rid of the CID check to install any wrong CID or unsigned ROM. But if I want to install a CID matched ROM on my device, I don't need to isntall HSPL.
correct, you don't require hspl, because it is a telstra rom on a telstra phone.
Thanks for that! I'm gonna give it a go tonight, and let you guys know how it goes tomorrow.
Successful!!!
I hope people who has Telstra HTC HD2 can find something useful for them.
Greatly thanks to ClydeB1 and samsamuel!!!
I flashed a cooked ROM in and it worked. I restarted as one the applications asked.
Then the device freezed at the start up screen with the green HTC logo.
I have to hard reset the device and re-flash it.
Do you know what's wrong with it?

usually means you didnt flash a matching radio. Read your cooked rom thread, see what radios it recommends and compare to what you have.
hi
couple days ago touch screen sense wasnt working so i am returning my phone
and getting a new device.
when i first had hd2 spl was 2.10 or something so i downgrade to 2.08 to use custom rom.
since i am sending my broken device back to t-mobile i changed to 2.08 from hspl.
is it gonna be a problem if they found out my broken phone has spl 2.08 not 2.10?
please help!
because i dont want to get charged over different spl version =(
It should be fine. As long as there is no HSPL, you can just deny whatever they throw at you. If they claimed you've changed the HSPL, play the stupid-card and ask them what that is.
