I just tried hard resetting my HD2 (got it for a couple of days), and after doing so the phone just hangs on the orange Windows screen after the HTC one. the progress bar keeps on loading and then all over again. If i connect the device to my pc it shows me the device on Activesync... dunno what to do.
are you on a stock or custom ROM?
try flashing a different radio/rom from the bootloader
a task 29 beforehand would help a lot too
i'm on stock rom, and as i mentioned, i've only got it for a couple of days so i'm kind of a noob with this device (coming from HTC Hero), what's a task 29?
do you know which version? 1.43? 1.66? is it a TMO US?
a task 29 is a format of the phone, then you can install a ROM on a clean device
it is the 1.48. It is not a T-mobile phone, it's an unlocked one.
can you go into bootloader and flash the stock that way?
did you install or try to modify your rom before the issue happened
yes you can
turn on your phone while holding VolDown
connect your phone via activesync
it'll state its connected via usb
just flash a rom as you normally would

Hello,
I've got a problem with my Blackstone. I just flashed the latest topix Rom trough SD card and all went well (rom update:succes), and then i did a HR. But ever since then the screen won't turn on. I tried to softreset, hardreset, removing the battery for a few minutes and turn on, and entering bootloader. The screen stayed black. When i plug in the usb charge cable the orange led does go on, and when i press the power button the phone vibrates for half a second and plays the bootsound (as usual). I can even get an activesync connection with my pc.
Suggestions anyone?
Edit: Just flashed a new Rom (the latest energyrom); screen still stays black. I am still able to get an activesync connection + orange/green led
EDIT2: people in this thread seem to be having thesame problem I have with my blackstone. It seems to be a hardware defect... Now let's hope it will be repaired under warranty
Ok, I'm replying instead of editing because I've got a new problem now
I want to return my phone to claim warranty. I did manage to flash a stock rom + radio, but the problem is i use hspl and i am unable to flash a stock spl to the device. When I run the Hardsplwrapper-Blackstone.exe (doesnt matter wether its the unsigned olinex or the 1.56 olinex version) I get a 260: connection error when i use Windows XP, and a 202: connection error when using Windows 7.
The wiki says to run SSPL manually from a file explorer in your phone... But without a working screen that is a bit hard. I als don't have any screen viewing app installed on my device...
EDIT: also tried installing mymobiler to be able to view the screen but I am unable to connect...
Anyone?
I managed to flash stock spl by putting the device in bootloader manually while I had it connected to usb. Then I waited til the bootloader connected to my pc (I could tell because the "new hardware found"screen popped up). then I ran the hspl.exe and copied the stock .nbh spl file. After that I was able to finish the wizard
ok, another question (sorry mods for replying to my own thread _again_ )
I flashed a stock rom + radio and stock SPL (version 1.14). Is this enough to be able to claim warranty, or will HTC find out that i've been using HSPL and custom firmwares? I wouldn't like to have to pay for repairs because they find out about that.
my hd2 shut down twice by it self today but after second shut down the phone is not booting completely it stays on after the two boot screens, it stays on the orange windows page and not finish boot. ( 2.13 stock rom)
i did like 10 hard resets and nothing
maybe or my only solution is to flash another ROM, im thinking the 3.14 upgrade cuz i was on 2.13.
i did upgrade from 2.10 to 2.13 but my phone was on and sync with my pc (this was like 7 months ago)
i just want to know if i can upgrade to 3.14 with the phone in the three color screen boot screen or i have to do the whole hspl thing and flash a custom rom??
Flashing from bootloader is how ANY ROM flashes. Put your device in bootloader, connect via USB, and flash away!

Big THANKS
i did flash my phone before but it was up and running but because it was an upgrade form the tmobile site the phone went to bootloader by it self and not by me so i was confused if i do it directly been on bootloader it will work but now i know
thanks again
ok, so i flashed the stock upgrade 3.14 ROM from TMOUS site but problem didn't go away, it crashed, it shutdown by it self and not turning on, not even vibrate or went to boot page it just didn't do anything , so i waited almost a day to turn it back on and the phone did turn on but i tried it in bootloader and flashed a custom ROM (BlueTopia 1.0.2 by cmylxgo) and it was working like a charm with android
BUT silly me i took the storage card out without turning the phone off and android running so when i realize i did it i put it back but phone was off and now it don't want to turn on. I'll wait like 15 min to try turn it back on and see what happens...
could it be a software thing?? i'm starting to think is hardware problem because it happened with 3 different ROMs?
does anyone had this problem before??
Hi everyone in a panic but am trying to stay calm lol...
So i think i have over tinkered and broken my phone....
I am able to get to the boot loader by powering on and holding down the volume button and it will allow me to flash radio and rom to it but it never boots after just hangs and says loading please wait..
I have tried roms
chuckyrom 23148 tabtasitc
OzDroid 2.00
and radio's
2-11-50-26
2-11-50-26
and the same thing with these in any combo
I have ran task 29.. and have to admit i am left a bit worried now... any advice would be great i am going to read the rom section and try and get a new rom and radio combo...
Any Ideas ...
Okay phone seems to be flashing... but task 29 is not seeming to wipe my phone correctly it is still left with the chucky room splash screen after a task 29 i thought this should go white
First thing, your phone is fine - since you can get into bootloader mode.
What version of the HD2 do you have - is it the T-Mobile USA version?
Have you installed HSPL on your phone?
Go to the HTC website for your location and download the ROM for your phone (if your phone is unbranded then download the HTC ROM or if it is branded then download the mobile operator's branded version of the ROM). NOTE: If you are using a TMOUS phone, then double make sure that you are downloading the USA version of the T-Mobile ROM.
Bootup your phone into Bootloader Mode, then connect to your computer via the USB cable. Run the downloaded ROM. Ignore the connected via activesync in the warnings.
Hi i have a O2 uk hd 2 i thought the phone was okay as the laod was coming up and it seems to be writing to it... hm strange it just says loading but the red writing does not appear on the bottom left to say rom and radio version...
Hi have downloaded and flashed the o2 rom from the HTC website it seems to have gone okay BUT now when it boots it is just stuck on the O2 splash screen and goes no further..
I have now removed this from usb and re inserted the sim card and am getting this at the bottom
R 2.07.51.22...2 (Is this the radio?? or the Rom)
g15.32.50.07u
d 1.72.82124
and it has come up slowly and seemed to be loading windows mobile.. and then crashes and starts all over again...
Okay so I have now got a stock o2 rom from htc on my phone. and it is working.
Thank you Fred_up for the advice... should i now be able to start again trying to load a custom rom back on to the device to enable me to use android again?
Try doing a hard reset. While phone is Off, hold Volume up & Volume down buttons, then tap the Power button.
In Bootloader Mode, what does it say?
pull off battery and wait 5 minutes. let the phone cool and the insert back the battery.
it should be alright. however everytime your phone overheating its freeze again..
any solution to that let me know.
cool off your phone. take out the baterry and then once the phone is cool insert the battery and it will boot again.
now hd2 have this problem. overheating. the phone will freeze. hd2 now need freezer to make it not freeze.
I have an HTC Surround that I cant get to boot past htc logo and if i try to hard rest it goes to spl screen. Where can i get the software to reflash it. I also have another microsd that i can change out if that is bad
still working on
So I replaced the mirco sd and tried to do the restore using the power and volume buttons and still would not get it to try and boot more then a few secs and stop at the htc screen. I also flashed the stock att rom that I got off xda but still no luck. My last chance is trying a new battery today are there any more suggestions
My surround did the same thing recently. It's a problem surrounds have. Unfortunately you have tried the 3 most common solutions.
1: reflash with stock rom
2: Change out sd card
3: hard reset
The only way I know of to get a working one after you have tried those 3 things is hope it's under warranty. :-/

Where did you get that stock at&t rom? I've been all through the developer section and all I see are telus and cingular roms. I've got a phone from the shop that's stuck on the htc logo and replacing the sd card hasn't fixed it. I tried to flash a telus rom because hey what the hell do I have to lose but RUU wasn't able to establish an ActiveSync connection on the htc logo screen looping repeatedly. Is there a way to force it into a sort of download mode from the htc logo to do the flashing from?
AT&T Surround ROMS

Cingular is AT&T. I have flashed both of these ROMS to my AT&T Surround. Both work perfectly.

I'm a bit new to windows phone but I learn quickly usually. could you help me a little bit more by telling me what exactly cotulla rspl/hspl, and DFT rom are? Is there a guide anywhere i could follow?
thanks again

i'm guessing this should work:
C. Windows Phone 7 ROM Flashing Instructions
1. Unzip your downloaded *.zip file in a separate folder
2. Press and hold power-on/off button to power-off the phone
3. Press and hold volume-down button and then press power-on/off button to enter bootloader mode
4. When your phone enters the tricolor screen bootloader mode, release volume-down button
5. Connect your phone to your windows 7/vista/xp pc/laptop with a usb cable
6. Verify that your phone will be identified and relevant drivers will be installed by windows os of your pc/laptop
7. After completion of (6.) above, check the usb message connection on your phone screen
8. To flash the new ROM go to your pc/laptop folder of (1.) above
9. Double click on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file and strictly follow the instructions on your pc/laptop screen
Do You still need help about this?
Basically you need to download DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH from this forum, this will allow you to flash a custom rom. The ROM installed at the phone must be a NODO one because mango roms updates the loader and are not compatible.
For apply it you must put the phone on loader. Connect the phone to the usb, turn it off, turn it on but holding volume down key.
Once there you will see the 3 color screen and will say USB run the DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH and follow the steps.
The phone will restart and showing again the 3 color screen but with HSPL now you can install DFT ROM. DFT ROM is basically a custom Windows Phone with the option to sideload apps you just run ROMUpdateUtility.exe from the DFT ROM downloaded and it will upgrade your OS to DFT Version.
Now what? SPL too high!
My brothers HTC surround has crashed, and fails to load the OS. i can get to the bootloader, but it's
spl-4.2.2250.1 (129185) MNG
i've got HSPL and RSPL, but they say DON'T TRY IF NOT 1.X SPL OR IF IT SAYS MNG. his says both. he was running mango, and i'm just trying to reinstall a stock rom. I'm wondering what advice any of you might have. I've reinstalled roms on Samsung devices, but not on an HTC, so i'm not sure what all this is about, or what the consequences are of proceeding. any help would be great.
Thanks dudes.
bump?
please?
Is it 1/2 bricked?
If you connect the device to a PC does it go to USB mode? At teh red blue green screen does it say USB at the bottom?
USB
It does display USB. If i leave it on for like an hour, eventually, i just discovered, windows DOES load, and it says "your memory is corrupt" it does connect to the computer, and it is detected by my pc, and it does display USB. I'm going to try to put in a new SD card, but i'm wondering once i do that, will i be able to flash the retail rom to it, with that spl.
thanks!
Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837.I believe you will have to downgrade your bootloader. I haven't tried this yet myself, I hope it helps you out.

When rebooting also use the soft reset button next to battery & try it a few times if unsuccessful first time booting.

I had the same problem bro, do you want android or windows on the phone?
I want the original Windows Phone back on it.
Mister B:
I followed your steps but it didn't fix the problem. When I start up the phone, the three coloured display shows up and it says 'Serial' on the bottom. Tried the reset button several times and even holding down both Volume-buttons to Hard Reset the phone, but it didn't fix the problem.
The phone always worked fine, what is the problem?
Have you tried doing Task29(full wipe) via HD2 toolkit?
Yes, I already tried Task29 before flashing Hard SPL and Original ROM. I really want to get the Phone working again so my Mom can use it!
Hopefuly someone can help my out with this annoying and weird problem.
After installing the stock rom, what did the phone do? Did it restart to the HSPL screen?
Yes, it restarted back to the HSPL screen. It also shows 'Serial' on the bottom and when I connect USB cable It shows 'USB' on the bottom.
Try flashing stock rom from sd card rather than via usb & see what results you get.
I tried flashing the Stock ROM from the SD-card but it didn't help. It still is stuck at the SPL-screen showing 'Serial' on the bottom when I start up the phone.
Which exact ROM do I need to use for a Netherlands(Europa) HTC HD2 (NON-TMOUS!)?
I hope to hear back from you as soon as possible!
Can someone help me please? Tried everything!
