(sorry if its posted before)
Actually the prob is that i can flash through my pc perfectly .. but when i try flashing through Memory card it fails ( no file found and goes to tricolor) i have tried formating the card iv tried using 3 different cards a 256MB , 4GB and a 8BG .. but no luck with any dont know whats wrong ,
an i want to try a few new roms which are only available in MC flashing flavour
i neeed help 27 views an no reply yet
two things...
1. make sure the charge is more than 30 %
2. put the rom file in the root and should be named BLACIMG.NBH
I'm having the same problem as itschemistry, and unfortunately your answer isn't helping me either, drgopoos: my battery is fully charged, the rom file is named exactly BLACIMG.nbh, but on boot screen the message 'no image found' flashes up, and then leaves me with no option but to soft reset. I suspect I don't completely understand where my storage card's root folder is, so advice on that will hopefully solve my (and itschemistry's) problem.
If all else fails, I'll have to flash using my PC.
Bit of help will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Some memory cards are not supported. I can't flash from my SanDisk
There's already a thread running. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487632
(Well actually 3 now)

You have already stated that you are following the proper procedure below. Correct?
* Rename RUU_Signed.nbh to BLACIMG.NBH and copy it to your Storage Card
* Go to bootloader screen
* A messages will popup, push power button to start flashing or Volume down to cancel
Have you read through the thread provide by deepakjohn above?
This above thread solve your problem? Let us know!
I had the same prob.
Tried with the Transcend card that came (8gb HCSD)
Also tried with a Kingston 4gb HCSD with no luck.
Finaly tried with a Kingston 2gb SD (no HC) and it worked fine.
Looks like you need to get a supported mem card as advised above.

yeah, i followed the whole procedure, but still i got the message 'no image found'.
i've now given up and flashed via USB instead a little later.
and apologies for not finding the thread that deepakjohn provided, i was searching in the wrong part of the forum. i did read it after it was provided, and i'm sure it would have helped in some way, but as mentioned i gave up trying to flash via MC.
good luck to everyone else.
alright so I'm new to this, but I followed the instructions to hardspl, and got up to the point where i had 4.70yang as my spl, and was going to flash through SD. it wouldnt read the SD card, and i tried formatting it in FAT32, with the allocation unit size to 4096, and when that didnt work, i tried other variations. Then I figured I'd try flashing the other way, but couldnt do it because i couldnt get a sync with the computer. I didnt know whether to go into the actual canonyang ROM, but anyway I did, and if I connect the USB cable, nothing happens, no activesync. i tried the bootloader screen, no USB connection. every other alternative i saw, removing the hardspl, flashing otherways, etc etc i cant do without a USB connection. im not sure if i did anything wrong, im convinced i didnt. im hoping the solution is really simple, cause i cant get activesync to work.. im really frustrated, lol. if anyone could offer solutions, that would be amazing.

Please keep all non-development posts off the development forum.
As far as your problem goes:
Activesync won't connect per say in SPL mode but it should still let you flash. In SPL mode, there is no syncing so the icon never turns green but it still works just fine. As far as working with the SD card, the SD card cannot be a SDHC card. The SPL doesn't have a SDHC driver.
Try a smaller SD card (2GB's or less since they are usually non-SDHC) or flash through SPL even though activesync doesn't show as connected.
sorry about posting it in the wrong place. where should i have posted? and thank you for replying
and what IS the SPL mode? what screen should i be seeing? cause if i let it load then it just goes to the regular phone screen as if im on an actual OS, and sync doesnt work there. and yes im using a 2gb SD card, not SDHC.

Ok, make sure you followed these SD Flashing instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581996
It should work. And also, please read up on the terms, and that will help you understand everything.
And what Ivan was referring to, about flashing without ActiveSync connected....put your phone into the bootloader, connect USB, wait one minute, and then attempt to flash. Tell me if you did EVERYTHING in the first paragraph's link first, though.
OK. I see what the problem is. You're in the OS but the OS is the stripped OS.
Hold down your camera button and then press the soft reset button. Then you'll be in SPL mode. From there you can flash anything you want.
hey thanks for the help ive flashed a ROM or two using flash center so thats working fine i got past that. but im still trying to flash through SD. it wont read my card still after formatting it to FAT32 and putting the HERAIMG.nbh file. i read on another post that the nbh version number could be a factor? how would i go about messing around with that?
As I mentioned: Is your SD card a SDHC card? If it is, it won't work. The NBH version is set by the cook and if it works with the flash center then it works with the SD card. Any ROM created for flashing through SD card is made with the correct numbers.
Hey Ivan
I'm new here and i've flashed several ROMS via RUU, so far the Glass one is my favorite.. Since y'all are on the topics of SD or SDHC cards, quick question...
I have a 2 gb SD card and i've been unsuccessful in flashing via SD. Formatted in fat32, named it HERAIMG.nhb and put it in the root, already been hardspled. Here's the question, in XP it shows as "Secure Digital Storage Device" I was wondering maybe the bootloader couldn't read the SD because it's the "secure" type not the regular one? Tried the quick format and full format to no success.
any input would be helpful
Secure Digital is what SD stands for. No matter what brand you use, that is what they are all called. There is no regular or secure SD card.
Hi
I just got my HD2 that my uncle got for me. I have been playing with the phone for about an hour and decided to watch the Transformers movie. To my surprise when I launch the icon, I get the message "media file not found". I checked to see if there was a microSD installed, and found that there was one.
Next I went to >settings > SD card & phone storage to see what was listed, and under the SD Card section is says "No SD card"!
Can someone please explain why this is so?
Also, I did try another sd card from another phone I have, and got the same "no sd card" listed.
I pray to god that this is not a fault with the phone, since it was picked up at a store today.
Thank you

What have you installed on your phone?
nothing, i was just setting up the phone.
i would take the cover off and press the red button its called a soft reset it wont erase anything its almost like restarting your computer if it still doesnt show up than i'd consider a hardreset which will erase data or reflashing a rom.
Are you In Euro or US?
Are You using a ROM?
I saw a yellowish like bottom next to the sd card slot and thought it might be a reset, and and pinned pressed it. Dont see any red button. The reset restarted the phone, but no luck.
I am in the US.
Not sure what you mean by "using a ROM".
Haven't done any sort of custom updates nor anything of that nature.
well its hard to tell the exact problem with your phone but i would suggest using Touch X Rom (there are others too i have had best experience with this one) it makes your phone run very nicely check out the thread on my signature and if your interested there is a guide in my signature as well for flashing your phone.
Is that going to void the warranty? are you sure this might fix the phone not recognizing an SD card.
dont quote me but i think if you flash back to the original rom you will be okay but its something you should research and look into i would think that it would fix it unless there is something physically wrong with your phone or sd card. Do you have any spare ones lying around you can try?
By the way the loss of sd card happend to me once when i installed TomTom that why i asked what you installed.
Spare of what? a phone or another sd card? I did try another sd card, but the phone didn't read it. FLashing the ROM seems complicated, I checked your guide and it looks like a whole bunch of things I got to do.
hmm well you can always try a hard reset, do you have all of your contacts synced or backed up?
is your phone connected to your computer now? in other threads people report they lose there sd card when its plugged into the computer
I just notice that my mac is reading and showing the SD card from the phone. I am able to see the files that are on the card and able to play the transformers movie on my iMac.
strange isn't!

Yes! you are correct, I disconnected the phone from the computer, and the sd card now shows on the phone.
Guess, problem solved.
About the flashing, you think I will be better performance from the phone?
thanks again for all your help.
good to hear im glad it worked, yeah i was totally impressed and glad i flashed to Touch X Rom Read the thread and you'll see that many agree! I'm not an expert by any means but i would do a search and see if you even can with a mac you might need to use a diff computer or use a diff guide
Cool, I will look into it ... cheers
Hey Jimmy,
Would any of those custom roms allow me to unlock the phone?

not quite sure try using the search thread tool and see if anyone else was able to accomplish this
This is from the phone. Does everything look ok to begin the ROM updates. You said that the HSPL2 is the first thing to flash. what's the next step after?
Info:
Software info from HTC HD2
- OS version : 5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)
- Manila version: 2.5.20121412.1
- ROM version: 2.10.531.1 (82076) WWE
- ROM date: 02/22/10
- Radio version: 2.08.50.08_2
_ Protocol version: 15.34.50.07U
i assume ur using a pc to do this
Download hspl2 ->install
Download task 29-> flash (this erases all data)
Download ROM make sure its T-Mobile US Compatible the one on my signature is ->install
To install make sure your computer is properly configured to active sync on a pc then run setup on pc and it will prompt the flash on your phone.
Once hspl2 is flashed power the phone off hold the volume down and end key and if you get the tricolor screen you did it correct.
I runned the hspl2 setup from my laptop running windows xp pro and the program gave this error:
"CRITICAL ERROR
Flow: 00000001
Error code: 00000002
Description: USB connect failed!"
Any ideas here?

Follow step by step and i hope you will get it working....
Step 1:Connect your Phone to PC and Power it OFF.

Step 3ress Volume Down and Power On/Off till you go into bootloader...3 Color Screen
Step 4:Flash newest Radio 2.15 which can be found here http://www.multiupload.com/QP0IWGY42F
Step 5hone will reboot during reboot hold power off button to get into MAGDLR Menu
Step 6:Go to MasStrorage (Use Volume Down/Up to move in menu - Accept Call(Green Button) - to Confirm

Step 11: Let you phone boot! Enjoy
Worked for me!

Well, I thanked you for your post, but what is it about? My 16GB μSD works perfectly (apart from a few reboots post-flash which I don't get anymore). Is there a problem with the card?
Many people can't use it,it's total failure for WP7 no reason why,i had big problems with it and now i got it sorted with no reboots or unlock stuck which was problem with most people using this card!
Any Success?
I am new to this, so please bear with me. I have a few questions regarding this process before I do it:
1.) Do I still need to do steps 1 through 9 if I have already flashed it and installed Windows 7 on it?
2.) If so, do I need to keep my SD card in my phone while I do this process?
3.) After completing this process, will the phone be able to read and "play" the files on the card? The reason I ask this question, is because I have pictures that I would like to have viewed, and music/videos that I would like to play, whenever I desire.
4.) Speaking of which, right now there is no option on my phone in which Zune can identify any other media besides what is offerered through Zune. Will this process change that option, or will another media player be downloaded to take care of this issue?
5.) In doing this process, will anything change in my already-installed, recently-updated Windows 7? I just updated my phone last week, and have tried to resolve several bugs since then so I've barely been able to enjoy it. I wouldn't want to do all these steps, and then have the same connectivity and speed problems that I have just resolved.
I know I could just go ahead and do the steps, but I just want to have some peace of mind before I start messing around with the flash process again. Plus, not to mention, you're one out of a few who seems to know that an issue with the SD card exists, so I just want to be sure.
Thanks ahead of time for your help in answering these questions.

i bought a tmo hd2 and use the stock sandisk 16gb card. all three win7 roms i have used have worked well.
only thing i'd reccomend is doing a format from mgldr and/or a factory reset

Personally I don't see why this process would help anything. I haven't had any issues with the sandisk 16gb card that came with my hd2, and sandisk class 2 is one of the most reliable cards to use with wp7 from everything I've read and personally tested.... but I have heard that some of the 16gb cards included with the hd2 are defective, that's why htc will replace the card if you call them and send the card back. But most sandisk class 2 cards work great... I've tested 6 or 7 sandisk class 2, and only one had problems with wp7. In general, wp7 is very picky with sd cards and you need a card with good random access speed, which is not rated or kept consistent by the card manufacturers. Some batches work great, while some batches of the exact same card but made a different day may not work.
Random Reset/Reboot/Reflash Problems causde by SD Cards??
After a whole 12 hours with no problems my HD2/7 re-set itself again.
Normally (at least 5 times yesterday) I'd reflash and start again, but after this mornings efforts (see post in SD Card Thread) I thought I'd see what else I could do.
>Settings >Region & Language >Display Language
The settings after the phone had reset itself were English U.S. This meant no apps, no accounts, no contacts, no memory card and no hope!!
I changed these back to English U.K. (selected during initial set up) and hit the restart link.
All apps up and running, all settings as they were before the random reset.
If you try this instead of reflashing, obviously change the language setting to what you set it to during initial set up i.e. your home country.
Anyone else having this problem might try and fix with this, let us know if it works for you.
The general consensus is that the reboot/reset/reflash issue is caused by slow or incompatible storage cards, I'm going to get a new one right now so I dont have this problem anymore.
All I had to do was flash to the radio version you provided and WP7 stopped rebooting randomly! You're incredible. Thanks.
Dude, you're a god. I had random restarts, until I did your method. Love you!
Hi, thanks for these tips, I'll try them, but first of all I use radio 2.12, because I can't manage to get the 2.15, the link provided on many threads of this forum is broken ...
Do some of you guys have another d/l source to get this radio ?
Thanks
Hey Guys, Im new to the HTC HD2.
I got this phone from a guy at my shop. The previous computer guy did this to the phone and he said if i fixed it i could either buy it or sell it. I am sorry i do not have much information or the specifics to what exactley happened but i do have two pictures that i am including.
I have tried hard and soft reset. Also i have tried to restore to factory settings. I have a 4 gb sd card if needed. The phone is stuck at the stick together screen.Also there is no Serial when i am in the tri color boot screen. Also the phone will not connect via activesync nor will it sense it at all. The computer i am doing all of this work on is a 32bit xp os.
Any help or information would be appreciated.
The Phone is already HSPLed, but the issue you say you cannot establish a connection with PC, did you try the SD Card Flash method? That is by placing your Stock ROM NBH in the SD Card and flash it from there? Just check the General Forum, you will find the step-by-step procedure there.
So your saying do something like this?

And also i do not know all the phone terms. The last time i was here was back in 08 when i had my htc fuze. If you would please direct me in a specific way.

No that link you posted is to instal Android on the HD2. Seeing as you do not know the history of the HD2 youcshould go back to stock first. Go the links I post below and follow my instructions. Go to this link to get your ROM. Look under batterry for IMEI number, ROM downloadclink in step 4.
http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm54430.xml
Right click on the file you download and rename it from a .exe file to a .zip file. Then right click it again and select view/explore which ever one you see and find the.RUU_signed.nbh file and copy it to a micro SD card of 8 gig and under formatted Fat 32. Once it is on the micro SD card rename the file to LEOIMG.nbh and then put the micro SD card in the HD2. Boot the HD2 into bootloader and when you see searching on the screen of the HD2 and let go of the volume down button and it should ask you of you want to flash the image, press the end button to comfirm and the ROM will flash. Be advised though this will remove HSPL from the HD2.
Here is a link to the flashing by SD card thread.
