There seems to be two ways to get this done. First is that you can download the standard 2.10 rom, rename the nbh file to leoimg.nbh. Copy it to the root of your sd card (maybe best to use a different one than the one that came with your phone) and run it from boot loader. This will restore the image, radio and spl from that rom version.
The second one is to wait until HSPL1024 is upgraded to allow it to be used with the 2.13 rom, and then you can flash cooked rom's onto your phone.
I haven't actually done either of these, this is just my understanding of how it should work. I've flashed the 2.13 rom, and now can't flash a cooked rom to the phone, so I'm trying to decide which path I want to take.
Does anyone have any info regarding mods to HSPL1024 for use with the 2.13 rom?

These are two great sources of info/stock roms... The 2.10 stock ship rom is listed in post 1.

no need to wait, just flash 2.10 rom using sd card which will downgrade spl to 2.08 so hspl will work again.

So from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655653 that one that says 2.10.1 *no stock Spl !!! is the stock 2.10.531.1 that came with the phone when i bought it? or not and what means no stock spl

I'm pretty sure you want the one that does have the stock spl. That should restore your phone to exactly what you had when you bought it new. I'm not sure, but I think the one that is * no stock SPL would overwrite the rom without modifying the spl (I'm not 100% sure).
You'd have to load this from the sd card.

they're all in that thread, not just 2.13, did you look in the thread or just read the title?
pick the one that says 2.10.0 (dont worry about the extra .1 just yet, we can change that later if you want, we want the 2.10.0 cos it has the spl.)
If you currently do not have hspl on your phone, and your spl is 2.08.0000 (bootloader, tell us what it says next to spl)
then you can simply run the 2.10.0 .exe file and it will reset your rom and radio to 2.10.0 stock.
If you DO have hspl installed (i.e bootloader says 2.08.HSPL) then you can go straight for the 2.10.1 rom, flash over USB, which will flash 2.10.1 rom and radio, and when it has finished, run hspl1024, and in the list choose 2.08.0000, which will reset your spl to stock 2.08.0000
However, if you flashed 2.13 from sd card, your spl is now 2.1, so hspl1024 no longer works.
In this case, get the 2.10.0 rom, right click the .exe and choose extract here, get the file ruu_signed.nbh, copy to your sd card, rename to leoimg.nbh, flash the phone, this has reset your rom and radio, and changed your spl back to 2.08.0000, meaning you can now reflash hspl1024 and then load the 2.10.1 rom.
all sounds more complicated than it is, its all dependant on what spl you currently have. Its the spl that is critical for warranty, not so much the rom.
What makes it slightly more complicated, (and hence jumping from rom 2.13 to 2.10.0 to 2.10.1 above) is that some of those tmous stock roms come as .exe files, and some as a zip with customruu.exe and ruu_signed.nbh.
If it comes as customruu.exe and ruu_signed.nbh, then even though it is stock, it still needs hspl to flash.

I do have 2.08.Hspl so i just have to flash 2.10.1 like a regular flash from the computer via activesync and when finish run hspl and choose 2.08, and i can not keep 2.08Hspl, i think i can right.

yep, flash the 2.10.1 over usb using customruu.exe, then if you want to keep hspl installed, do nothing, if you want to remove hspl just run hspl1024 and choose 2.08.0000.

Hi,just for FYI i did the same thing installing 2.13,and i did reflash via SD card(1gig) 2.10 and the ran HSPL back on the phone and all went well and running customs as i please,so trust samsamuel he knows what he is talking about,good luck friend,ping33tx

no matter if i have the Elegancia right now, because that what i have now, sorry for ask to much.

ah well since you are changing from a cooked one, it is probably worth doing, just for good measure, but don't get too hung up on it, it's not that critical,, unless the rom runs badly afterthe flash.
some people emit every flash, some barely do it ever.

phew...
Okay... I've successfully gone and reverted back to 2.10.531. I initially got an error when flashing from the sd card, but it restarted itself and flashed fine. I then installed hspl on the phone and a custom rom.
I then decided I really wasn't happy with the custom rom, so I reflashed 2.10, reinstalled hspl, and then flashed the 2.09 radio over the 2.10 stock rom. Lol, I guess I'm not really very nervous about flashing anymore
One question... what is the purpose of the stock spl revisions? Is there some new functionality that goes along with an upgrade from spl 2.08 to spl 2.10, or is htc/tmobile just doing that to break hspl? It seems like once you've installed hspl, then that's the version you keep unless you flash from the sd card. At some point, is it likely that we'll need to upgrade the spl?

hspl is exactly the same as spl, just bypasses the security checks. you don't need to revert, most people just hspl and leave it set.(it protects your phone from bad flashes, it won't allow itself to be removed except by sd card)
the 0000 ones are included in the hspl program to make it easy to revert for warranty.
just reread your post.
yes higher spls have other functions or fixes or tweaks, but nothing you would ever notice.
you can happily run tmous roms on 1.42 spl with no issues.
(well, you can't cos you couldn't get 1.42 on your phone, being a tmous, but i can, and have)

Flashing from 2.10.0 to 2.10.1 Help

Hello all
Looking for help for flashing from the stock spl 2.10.0 to 2.10.1 for some reason i cant get it to flash properly not even from SD card. it just stays stuck at loading... screen or it goes to the HTC bootloader screen but gets stuck at 0%. Any tips.
But if im understanding it correctly the 2.10.1 cant go on the stock spl?
Thanks for all help in advanced.
anybody have any idea when a new rom is going to be released from T-Mobile?
when you download a rom, if it comes as a .exe, your phone will see it as official, and it should load on your spl. (Assuming its a match, of course) if it comes as two files, ruu_signed.nbh and customruu.exe, then your phone sees it as a cooked rom, and you need hspl installed to load them. (you can of course then unload hspl again afterwards, by running the hspl prog again, and all should be well.)
(At least that is how it appears to me, there are several 'official' tmous roms ive seen, and some are one type, some are the other. I dont have a tmous, lol, so i cant test it propperly, but its how it seems, the exe roms will load into my kitchen, the customruu ones wont. )
just a late night theory.
well this rom is coming as a customRUU and a ruu signed.nbh.
So assuming the phone recognizes it as that way. does anybody have a 2.10.1 link for an official EXE rom not a cooked rom
try search this one.can't promise anything but it came as an exe.
RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.34.50 .07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship.exe

WHY?
My God, I don't understand why so many people, like yourself are in "dire" need of such an insignificant "update" if you could even call it that... which you can't... because it DOES NOT add anything completely outrageous or amazing that would make going through all that trouble even worth it.
This is like the 15th thread that has been started stating literally, the exact same things.
Unbelievable.
Well sorry, just im the type of person that likes to be current in software even if it does nothing.
in that case you'll be keen to flash hspl1024 as soon as you can, so that you have the latest spl protection system currently available, with the added benefit that the x.x.1 rom update will install happily. then, if you don't want hspl there permanently, remove it again. just run the hspl prog again and choose 2.08.0000.
job done, 20 minutes

Did you trying downloading the ROM in the development section?
On a side note, I currently have ROM version 2.10.531.1 (82076) WWE installed. That is the same as the 2.10.1 stock ROM right? If I do flash a cooked ROM, I would like to be able to get back to this stock ROM as well.

Is it possible to change spl without messing up the currently installed ROM? In theory, that sounds like a solution though.
sure.installing and removing hspl has no effect on the current rom. no hard reset or anything.

how to remove hpsl?

I read on another thread how to uninstall HPSL from your HD2 is the process for the non t-mobile branded phone the same as the one for T-mobile. The reason I ask this is my phone has some really bad dead pixels and I still am within my return period and I'm going to swap the phone out. I don't want dumb customer service thinking flashing caused the dead pixels. Wish there was a way to fix the pixels i've did some searches nothing really worked. Thanks point me in the direction how to remove HPSL.
reflash stock rom
flash any of the tmous stock roms over usb, then run hspl1024 and choose 2.08.0000
Ok recently I flashed the version 2.10.1 *No Stock SPL!!! to get my phone back working like it was from t-mobile so I need a different stock rom with an SPL correct you stated. Flash a stock rom then run hspl1024 and choose 2.08.0000 what is 2.08.0000 the radio or rom, because I don't see that version on the thread with the stock roms. I just need a little more clarity before doing it thanks.
Ok I think I understand what you're saying now I'm going to try to get it done and let you know what happens thanks appreciate it.

basically you no longer need to find a stock rom with a stock spl, , , hspl1024 now includes the stock spl as well as the hspl. when you run hspl1024, there's a dropdown list. If you pick one that ends 0000 then it will flash a stock spl to your phone. If it ends hspl, then it flashes hspl to your phone. easy.

sam - thanks for you info and help, lots of people are asking and you have been very clear in how to flash custom roms after flashing the 2.13 rom. Do you know of work being done on the latest htc spl to Hspl? - so that flashing an old rom will again not be needed?
side question - does the spl have anything to do with performance or battery life? I'm on my 3rd day of this battery charge, I rarely have made it to the 2nd day before.

[Q] Need help reverting from HD2 2.13 ROM to 2.10 stock T-Mo rom

Hi there - I'm a total noob and I read a lot of threads here (a hour or so) and I just want someone to confirm the steps that I have gathered. I want to make sure I don't brick my phone.
I had a stock t-mo hd2 and it was great. Then they said there was a new ROM and I upgraded and now it just sucks with lots of problems - slow response, hanging, etc. So I want to just revert back to my old image which worked just fine (better than the new one).
So - I want to go from 2.13 to 2.10 (the stock image). Here goes as to my understanding and I just want people to confirm that I am doing it right.
1. I need to install HSPL 2.08 (is this correct? I currently have SPL 2.10.0000 - it seems the upgrade to the new rom changed it to 2.10 - so I need to go to HSPL 2.08 right? - I got this info from this thread - thread: ?t=653614 (sorry I can't post links yet)
2. Once I have installed HSPL 2.08 (instructions in the aforementioned thread) - I can download and install the stock T-MO US HD2 rom - found in this thread thread: ?t=655653 (no links sorry) Specifically - version 2.10.1 *No stock SPL* - which I assumed means that needed step #1 above. Correct so far?
3. In the image I downloaded in step two above - I see a CustomRUU.exe and a ruu_signed.nbh. I click on the CustomRUU.exe and that launches the process. If I follow this process completely through - then I will have the stock T-MO US HD2 ROM image back on my phone. Correct?
4. Finally - in case I need to be totally stock - do I need to then install the REGULAR SPL 2.08 back on my phone (to replace the HSPL 2.08 that I installed in step #1 above - by using HSPL3 and choosing 2.08 in the choose screen?)? Then I will have the stock SPL 2.08 and the stock T-MO US HD2 ROM image. So basically - I have the phone back to its manufactured stated.
Are all the above correct? I just don't want to brick my phone... Is there a better - more stable - more performant image than the stock T-MO US HD2 ROM image?
I really appreciate someone just giving the once over from above. My original confusion came in because my device already had an SPL 2.10 so I wasn't sure I needed HSPL 2.08. But if I'm going to ask - I figured I'd ask the entire kit-and-kaboodle (or whatever you call it).
Thank you all very much!!!
I recommend flashing HSPL 2.08 and running Task 29 (which clears your device's memory of ALL data except spl & splash) before following the instructions from this thread says you have to first flash the 2.10.0 (so you get your stock SPL) Then you flash the 2.10.1 (which is a shortened way of saying 2.10.531.1).
Post your success.
Wait - I have to first flash the 2.10 ROM before flashing the 2.10.1 ROM?
It worked!!!
0. Cleared storage

Great...
I've read of a lot of people loving 10 & hating 13.
I wouldn't mind giving it a whirl just for the fact of it being "stock"(for warranty purposes).
That leads to my REAL question on this subject, since my TmoUS HD2 came with 2.13 would it still be considered "hacked" if I reverted to 2.10?
I'm lovin' the NRG ROM's and have no problem being non stock, it's just a bit more comfort while under warranty to be "stock"
2.10 is still stock. the real deal breaker is the spl. so long as spl in bootloader says 2.08.0000 or 2.10.0000 then warranty is valid.
did you ever solve this problem

Yes, it reinstalls your original stock spl..
I never could get 2.10.1 to progress beyond 0%....
That's after installing 2.10.0.
Just gave up and went back to Energy

because the 2.10.1 rom in the stock rom thread isn't packed like a stock rom. it requires hspl to install it.
Downgrading frm stock 2.13 to stock 2.10
Hi, I just got my TMOUS HD2 a few days ago. It came with a 2.13 rom and I want to downgrade it to 2.10 because those tend to be more compatible with running android from the sd card. I unlocked it with HSPL3 but I'm still running the stock rom and stock radio. I've flashed custom roms to my diamond before so i'm a little familiar with the process but I never flashed back to stock or had to do anything involving spl. How do I go about downgrading from 2.13 to 2.10 in a situation like this? Where can I find these stock roms?
I too have been trying to find these stock roms to downgrade my TMOUS HD2.
Please advise. I could not find it on the HTC web site.
Look in the ROM sub-section of these forums.
Can someone confirm? I flashed with 3.14 ROM that was leaked a few weeks ago, now I can't go back to older ROM, any ROM. It's stuck at RADIO, or 99%.
Thanks

HSPL3 AND ROMS 3.14.831.3 Radio 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14

i read on some topics that hspl doesn't go well with stock roms 3.14 for example there is a 50mb program memory limit (is it ram or storage limit?), i wanted to get more advice on the matter because i read many opposite info about hspl on the forum, is it safe to use hspl3 to flash 3.14 stock roms? in particular this rom: RUU_Leo_S_HKCSL_WWE_3.14.831.3_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship this was released in december
What a coincidence, I was about to ask the same question, although I'm only using HSPL2.
So, is it ok to install a 3.14 stock ROM with HSPL2/3 still installed? Or do we have to flash back the original SPL first?
Remove HSPL, then if allowed you can install 3.14 ROM. If you are not allowed this ROM, then you need to use the GoldCard method, then install the 3.14 ROM.
Installing 3.14 ROM when HSPL is installed will make you phone prone to be unstable and have have a major reduction in RAM - So don't do it.
Ok thanks for the info fred_up. One other question, after I put the original SPL back, can I flash stock 3.14 over the USB cable? I did that with 1.43 -> 1.66, so I', assuming I can still do that?
ram loss is possible with hspl3 flashing rom 3.14! i had more free ram on my x1
can anyone confirm if the only solutions are the goldcard or flashing the rom for which your device is made??

If you downloaded the 3.14 ROM from HTC with your phone's serial number, then HTC are saying that you are entitled to upgrade to that ROM.

ram loss is possible with hspl3 flashing rom 3.14! i had more free ram on my x1
can anyone confirm if the only solutions are the goldcard or flashing the rom for which your device is made??

At this moment, if you are not entitled to flash the 3.14 ROM, then the only option is to GoldCard before flashing the 3.14 ROM - remembering to remove HSPL first. Your other options are to run the latest ROM from your Operator or run a custom ROM that isn't based upon the 3.14 ROM.
Is it OK to install a stock 3.14 ROM optop of HSPL via SDCard? Won't this erase HSPL?
can you confirm that using a goldcard automatically erases hspl? i think yes

yes it will erase hspl but becareful because if the rom is not the correct one for your device it will still fail to install BUT hspl will have allowed the spl to update to 3.03.0000 andyou will get exclamation mark screen and phone won't boot. in this case you will only get it working again by flashing an older correct stock rom.

yes, because the spl is updated to 3.03.0000 and
it can only do that by overwriting the spl, and hence hspl is gone.
use sspl
sspl is only any use if you already have a working 3.14 rom on your phone with spl 3.03.0000.
you cant run 3.14 on any other spl, not just hspl, so whilst SSPL would flash the 3.14 rom (for example from a current 1.66 rom) it would still have the memory issue because the spl would return to 1.66.0000 after the first restart, and the memory glitch would be there.

I downloaded the ROM straight off HTC's site with my own s/n so it worked out OK. I'm just taking the phone out for warranty repairs and I wanted to make sure I'm getting the correct SPL when I install the latest official ROM on the phone. Thanks!

HD2 - Resetting to stock software.. For warranty!

Ok, I know there have been a few threads on this. I've read all of them but still slightly confused.
I have an HD2 (der) with a custom rom, HSPL, Magldr 1.13..
Basically, what in the world do I need to do to get it back to "stock". I installed a rom from the t-mo website for this phone. It loaded windows, yadda yadda. But I know it still had HSPL on it.
Also, do I need to flash to a certain radio?
So far it has HSPL, a new radio, and Magldr 1.13.
Im sorry if this is a redundant question.. I just want to make sure I get this right! This phone was doomed even when it had Windows 6.5 on it. I rather not have them tell me I was the one who ruined it because of Android.. Even though it was acting up before it.
Thanks guys..
If you have the HDSPL yet, you have to uninstall it by running HDSPL3 and selecting *.spl or *.0000
Did I answer to the question ?

because usb flashing doesnt change the spl (hspl), only the splash, rom and radio.
Either - flash it again from the sd card, or use hspl3/4 to reset the spl manually, , if you flashed 3.14 rom, choose spl 3.03.0000, else chooe 2.08.0000

Ok, I'll download HSPL3 and flash it to spl 2.08.0000. This will look like it's stock to the technician, correct?
Also, I found this link (I apologize if I'm not suppose to post links like this, let me know and I'll remove it ASAP!)

Yes. Correct. It is stock SPL. But, if you only flash it via HSPL, it will not flash the ROM itself. Your current ROM will remain. If you want to go back to original stock rom, you need to flash it again.
Cheers
Ok, here's what I did..
I downloaded the stock rom for my phone (using my IMEI number on the tmo website). I went into HSPL mode (the tri color screen) and then ran the .exe on the computer and it flashed it.
Currently, it's still running HSPL. If I flash HSPL to SPL 2.08.0000... This will look completely stock, correct?
Thanks for your help! I get to send this in today!
Also, the radio is 2.15.50. Is that stock... ?

Yes that's right but it will be easy if you flash through sd card method it will write stock SPL ( you wouldnt do anything wrong if you install through hspl )... do do that just extract ruu you downloaded ( use 7-zip just search google its free) find ruu_signed.nbh and rename to LEOIMG.nbh copy to sd card and put in phone ... go into bootloader and follow instruction on screen.. and you are done.
But you alrady installed stock rom so to save time just put your phone into bootloader - tricolor screen connect to pc and run hspl and install stock spl

Thank you VERY much! I guess I'm just paranoid my $200 phone I got from craigslist will be deemed "rooted" and sent back to me with a nice "eff u" on the package from HTC.
The radio is now stock, everything is back to stock. SPL (no H) 2.08.0000. Yadda yadda.. It's still being a PITA.. so yes, I guess it is a hardware issue... yay for warranties!
