So i wanted to go back to the regular ROM for a while but i went to the updated one that just came out yesterday. Then after this loaded, i remember why i switched to ChuckyROM. So i tried to flash the HardSPL to it again but it had a popup that said BAD SPL!
So are there any fixes or advice for this problem?
I'm a complete noob.
So you just flash 2.13 Official T-Mobile rom using sdcard? if it is true than you cant HSPL your device since you are not on SPL 2.08 any more. Your HSPL is overwritten when flashing using memory card.
Maybe you can flash back to 2.10 rom using memory card method to get 2.08 SPL then HSPL you device from there.
I might be wrong so anyone please correct me.
Yeah I couldn't find anything in search so I read around and that's what I got. If this doesn't work then eff me. ):
Post HardSPL questions in the already open HARDSPL thread dude!
And you'll want to flash the 2.10 rom from you're sd card to give you spl 2.08, Then you will be able to HARDSPL you're phone and flash custom rom's of you're choice..
Peace,

I was able to downgrade my SPL 2.10.0000 to 2.08.HSPL simply by us by using one of the earlier roms listed here [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655653"[/URL] first then running the HSPL2_1024 and choosing 2.08.HSPL from the list.

I wanted to upgrade from Artemis rom v15 to v22 so I did. Suddenly I have issues with freezing and hard resets. I find out that I need HSPL 1.66.
So I tried installing HSPL2 and it gives me an error, something about invalid id.
I try HSPL and it did something because now I have SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE showing up in bootloader.
But I'm told it's not what I need and 1.66 is what I need. I can't seem to uninstall HSPL firstly and I also don't know any other way to get to 1.66!
I've even tried SSPL and it doesn't work
dont worry about it. its fine as it now is with 2.08.hspl
hspl2 wont work on telstra. Use hspl3 (which i assume you did to get 2.08.hspl) and you can now stop worrying. All roms will work fine on 2.08.hspl, the recommendation to match the spl to the rom doesn't really matter.

thanks for the reply and the info. I ended up getting the stock Telstra rom back on via straight SD flash and decided to try SSPL and it flashed ok so far.
After I flashed 2.08 Artemis said "I think you have problem Sir
My suggestion is, first to solve HSPL problem (post to HSPL thread)
or use SSPL (remove HSPL first)...". So I guess that's what I did.
Right now I seem to have 1.42.6666 showing up. Do you know how I can get to 1.66?

If your spl in bootloader ends...
.0000 = stock
.hspl = hspl installed
.6666 = rom was flashed using sspl. This is not permanent, single flash only, you need to use SSPL each time you flash
You can't flash radios with SSPL, so you may have trouble with cooked roms that require a particular radio. (Roms with the 576 RAM unlocked, for example, require you change your radio, which is almost certainly why artemis rom failed)
you cant get to 1.66.hspl directly with a telstra,
(well, you can, using the ''HSPL2 on telstra'' workaround,, , its posted in the rom dev section)
however I can promise you you will be just as well using hspl3, and installing 2.08.hspl
Hello everyone
I know this is a question that has been asked 100 times before, but a post from mskip got me worried.
Here's my problem:
- I want to install a Gingerbread ROM on my HD2. I have understood everything about how to do that, thanks to XDA.
- My HD2 is currently running a Winmo 6.5 3.14 stock ROM from HTC's website.
- To install it, I had to install SPL3 on my phone. So on bootloader, my phone now shows SPL-3.03.HSPL (Cotulla HSPL btw, thanks Cotulla )
- And to install the Android ROM, I know I have to downgrade to SPL-anything between 1 and 2.
- I know you can do that by installing a stock ROM, but I read somewhere in a post by mskip that you CANNOT suppress HSPL3 by downgrading the ROM.
Anyway, in short, my question is:
Can I suppress HSPL3 and eventually manage to start the install of an Android ROM?
I'm not a complete noob, but not an expert either and I don't want to brick my phone or anything.
Thank you very much in advance
I don't understand what you mean by "suppress" it but basically all you need to do is to get 2.08.HSPL on your phone. How you do that is boot to 3.03 (volume down and power) and open HSPL3 on your PC. Then after it finds your phone etc. on the phone just choose 2.08.HSPL from the menu and flash that. Then after that installs you should be able to flash your radio and MAGLDR etc.

Skellyyy is completely right you need to run the HSPL again on your HD2 and select HSPL version 2.08 HSPL because MAGLDR only supports 2.08 HSPL right now. You will hsve to flash MAGLDR in order to flash a Andriod ROM.
Thank you guys for the quick answers.
But the point is that the ROM I currently have (3.14) only runs with SPL3.
So if I downgrade to HSPL2.08, isn't there a risk that my phone is not going to be able to do anything after that, let alone installing Android?
See, that is a quote from the post I'm using to install Android. It says:
"A: Install HSPL3
Prerequisites
* Windows Mobile Device Center installed on Windows Vista / Windows 7 or
* ActiveSync installed on Windows XP
* You must have any SPL version from this list on your device:
o SPL 1.42.0000
o SPL 1.62.0000
o SPL 1.66.0000
o SPL 2.07.0000
o SPL 2.08.0000
o SPL 2.10.0000
(To check your SPL version, hold the Volume Down button and do a reset)
You should have this SPL version unless you are using the latest 3.14 ROM with SPL 3.03.0000. No worry, just downgrade your Windows Mobile ROM from v3.14 to v1.66 will do. Download HTC HD2 v1.66 ROM. Then downgrade your phone from SPL 3.03.0000 to SPL 1.42.000."
So it says here, downgrade to v1.66 ROM, and then downgrade from SPL3 to SPL1.42. That is not very clear to me. Isn't that supposed to be the same thing?
If downgrading to ROM 1.66 downgrades SPL to 1.42, then why should I AFTERWARDS downgrade from SPL3 to SPL1.42? Isn't that going to be already done?
And more importantly, you guys say I should simply run HSPL and choose an appropriate version, which is yet another method than what is explained above...
Oh boy I'm confused...

No need to worry my friend I am currently running a 3.14 ROM as you can see by my sig. I also have HSPL 2.08 on my HD2 just incase I decide I want to run Andriod or flash a custom ROM. I can tell you my HD2 is working just fine.
No those prerequsites are just the showing you the SPL version that you habe to have to flash HSPL 3. You only have to have ond of those versions but it has to be a version included in the list or you can not flash HSPL 3. If you do not have one of these versiond then the flashing to 1.66 then to HSPL 3 is just MSkip telling you how to get a SPL version needed to flash HSPL 3. But this is not needed now as there is a HSPL 4 version now that allows you to flash 2.08 HSPL when you have SPL 3.08.0000 or SPL 3.10.0000 with out having to downgrade your ROM.
So that basically means I should get HSPL4, run it and choose HSPL2.08 for example, and then I will be able to follow all steps to install and Android ROM?
Correct?

You have a tmous,,, you can't run 3.14 roms on a reg hd2 with any spl except 3.03.0000 or 3.03.Hspl.you get very unstable phone that thinks it has the 576meg ram unlocked but only really has 200 or so,with only 50 or so free for user apps. Unuseable.
OP correct, into bootloader, Hspl 4, 2.08.Hspl then back into bootloader and flash magldr from there.

Samsamuel I do understand what you are telling me here and I was a little concerned about this when I first flashed the HSPL 2.08 to my HD2. But to be honest I have noticed no real change in my HD2's performance compared to before. Also to be fair though I only have 5 nonpreinstalled apps on my HD2 as I found early on with my HD2 that a lot of apps can effect the performance of the HD2. I also never have more than two apps running at the same time as a rule too.
At the OP yes download and run HSPL 4 and choice 2.08 HSPL and you will be good.

because you have a tmous,,,,,, tmous 3.14 rom comes with spl 2.10.0000 and works with 2.08.xxxx, (or it may come with spl 3.03.0000, im not sure, but it doesnt require it, and your phone is proof of that) however the regular 3.14 roms come with and will not work without 3.03.xxxx.
Oh I get what you are saying now the TMOUS can do this but the EU can not. I was not aware of this. Sorry it took a minute for me to understand, I have been sick for like two weeks so my head is a kittle foggy because of it lol.
heh, it doesnt get mentioned often in relation to tmous.
tmous users never get the unstable system/bad ram error when they flash 3.14, regardless of the spl, so they never need to notice what the spl is before / after, so dont notice it didnt get updated.
Im sick too, its the time of year for it. Not that anyone would notice teh difference, i am still sat hunched over the keyboard, swearing under my breath occasionally at anyone who gets close,,,,,
Sam, it wouldn't really matter though would it? As he plans on flashing MAGLDR straight away so there wouldn't even be WinMo on the phone to make it unstable?

Oh no course not, all that stuff is fine.
Thank you very much guys, this is all very clear for me now.
I now know that HSPL4 -> 2.08 -> then droid flash is doable for me

you need to downgrade your spl from 2.10 to 2.08 hspl in HSPL 4, keep 2.15.50.14 radio, do a task 29, backup your sd card, install MGLDR 1.13, then Clockwork mod, in clockwork mod, format sd card to 1024mb with a 0 swap, then flash rom thru CWM. there's a lot of good roms you just have to try them and choose what suits you best.
how do i downgrade to 2.08?
sorry i still don't get all the lingo on this

your phone came with 2.10 spl, with HSPL 4 you should be able to select from the drop down menu the 2.08 hspl, you need hard spl to get any of this to work.
