maybe i am an idiot but what is the difference hd2 and tmobile hd2? Just wondering why there are separate forums.
flash a rom NOT based on 2.1 - tmo us hd2 won't boot
flash a radio with 51 in the version - bricks the tmo us hd2

Really??? even when hardspl'd or with sspl, cid/sec unlocked? thanks though I couldnt figure out the difference..
The size, MT HD2 is slightly toller. So if you buy the case for euro/asia version, it won't fit

yep. have a look for the "really bricked?" threads.
bad rom can be re flashedas you would expect, bad radio - phone won't even go into bootloader.
its to do with the tmous having the full 576 ram un hidden, is our best guess.

Hello all and pardon my ignorance.
I will be getting the HD2 next week and I have some questions..
1-Can I do HSPL with US version with same instructions in this forum ?
2-Can I do Roms of LEO to US version ? or eventually they will develop US rom versions ?
Thank you all in advanced.
You can't run HSPL as the US HD2 has SPL 2.xxx on it - you need SPL 1.42 to use HSPL

tmob us stock rom is the best
is it really? all id seen so far is how much ram it uses up
just to build off of his question, when HSPL 2 IS released, will Tmobile USA HD2's be able to use the same cooked ROMS that are available now? Or will there be special versions specific to the Tmobile USA version?

no, any rom will work.
i have tried everything
none of the hspl1 or 2 or sspl work with tmo usa hd2 as of yet....it probably has to do with the diff in memory also worried about how the hspl's and cooked roms with use the new memory allocation with the usa version???
Im new to windows mobile (former android user) and i keep seeing roms and radios with tmous on them and i was wondering if you can still flash them on uk devices?
yes you can use tmous roms on regular hd2. its only tmous users that need to be careful.

Thanks, now i can start my flashing frenzy
Hello, i have HTC HD2 T8585 t-mobile running on ROM 1.43.110.0. Is this version also called LEO and can i load HSPL2 on it?
Also, can i load European WWE 1.66 ROM on it after HSPL2?
Pls, help i am a complete newbie...thanks
This is area is for the TMOUSA version HSPL2 was designed for that version. You have a European HD2 (T-mobile ROM is either 2.10 or 2.13 stock) so check with the other forum with the correct software that is compatible with your phone

I think you are wrong...i checked out a site that says a person who has currently installed 'stock' ROM is v1.43 and he is advised to install hspl and then 1.66 ROM
I concur, you have a Euro hd2. To be sure go to settings--about phone, and look for "Flash Size". If it says 512mb, it is a Euro hd2. US hd2's have 1024mb of flash. Either way, if it is a US hd2 and you flash a Euro rom you will brick it.
The T-Mobile USA uses 2.10/2.13. This section of the forum is for the T-Mo USA HD2 users. You will get better answers in the original HD2 section, as that is your device. This section is T-Mobile USA.

You're better off going to the orignal HD2 forum and not the T-mobile one to ask about how to get HSPL onto it as we use a different HSPL program.
Try this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
I don't know if it will help, but it seems like a good place to start.
You can find specific info for your device here:

Good Luck.
just for clarity the confusion arose because of this incorrect statement.

HSPL2 WAS designed for the euro leo, HSPL2_1024 is the tmous version.
Thanks Sam I was wrong on the HSPL2 naming. I usually don't venture into the European forums for fear of grabbing a ROM from there and messing up my phone. So i forgot that the TMOUS version of HSPL2 is HSPL2_1024
I just realized the T-Mo HD2 has a separate for it. So do these ROM's and mods work on the T-Mo verison? There doesn't seem to be nearly as much stuff in the T-Mo forum as in this one.
you can flash any ROM but you must check if it's compatible with Tmous. it doesn't matter if your device is T-mobile or non tmobile or unlocked, Android run on all of them as long as you have the proper radio/rom
How can i figure out what Radio I need to have on it to make it compatible?
Probably a **.50.** Radio not 51 . Although I don't own a Tmous Device so I'm NOT SURE .. you better do your own researches on this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787 ..

Besides that one 2.15.50.xx gave a lot improvement for ppl who use Android (such as myself hihi)...
I am using Energy 3.14 GTX 2.5 ROM - works fine
I will change my HD2 with TMOUS HD2 one. What do you think about that? I am from Eastern Europe, is this a problem?
Is there enough Android and WM6.5 ROMs for T-Mobile version.
Is it worth the whole, this change?
512MB ROM more
Yes it is worth the change as just about all, if not all, Android ROMs will run on the TMOUS. And most custom ROMs now are based on the 3.14 stock TMOUS ROM. I absolutely love my TMOUS. Just remember you can not flash a 2.04.50.xx, 2.05.50.xx, or any x.xx.51.xx radio to the TMOUS or you will brick the phone. So never ever flash a non T-Mobile stock ROM to it. Also do not flash the 2.01 ROM in the T-Mobile HTC HD2 test and stock ROM thread here on XDA to it as it has a 2.05.50.11 radio and will brick a TMOUS.
Are the Android builds for T-Mobile HD2 better than regular HD2?

You must know more about it then mecause I am notaware of any Android ROM that is spacificaly for the TMOUS. If it is please pointmy tothem and I will try them out. I currently am using Hyperdroid on my TMOUS and it is great. I went withHyperdroidas I did stood bit of reasearching on the Android ROMs and thought Hyperdriid sounded best to me, now that was just my opinion not a definitive statement. I have a link to it in my sig if youwantto check it out. Nowasfor your question most of the Android ROMs run great on the TMOUS fromwhat Ihave read. I am also member of the T-Mobile forums and every one therethathas went NAND Android loves any Android ROM they try.
