oo..thx for the information....

Please search the forum before posting a completely new thread. Clutter is not efficient (usually)...lol.
One question, what SPL are you currently running. To explain: turn off the phone, once it's off hit the power and volume down button and it will come up with a multicolor screen. Are you running 2.10 or 2.08 for your SPL?
If it's 2.08, connect to PC and run HSPL_1024. Once completed, install custom ROM and good to go.
If it's 2.10, then the process gets a tad more complex and you'll have to read one of the many guides posted here to do it, such as this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691779
Next time please use the search function.

No HSPL

Since my HTC HD2 from Tmobile the SPL is 2.1
Is it possible to use a cooked rom without HSPL? Or is there another HSPL 2.1 hack.
Also, I searched the forum on downgrading it, which involves microsd. I'm not sure how to do it, anyone care to explain it to me? Thanks ^^
As long as you have one of these SPLs currently on the device - SPL 1.42.0000, SPL 1.62.0000, SPL 1.66.0000, SPL 2.07.0000, SPL 2.08.0000, SPL 2.10.000 you can flash HSPL3.
And you should always have hspl when flashing cooked ROMs
Dude I'm pretty sure there is no spl 2.1....
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
It's actually a 2.10.000
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893
So I download HSPL3 and do it? Edit: For installing HSPL3, do I have to enter the tri color screen than do it or no? And also, is HSPL3 compatible with TMOBILE?
Also, how do I find out of it's a LEO512 or LEO1024? Like how does it know the HSPL is compatible with me HTC HD2 Tmoible? I know the SPL is 2.10.000
But I read that there is 3 different kind of Leo. So I dont know if it will be compatible
Edit: Let's say I bricked it, how would I enter boot loader?
Bump. need help ASAP ><
To confirm the instruction
1. Run HSPL3 (Do I have to be in the tri color screen in order to install it?)
2. Run the rom I want using CUSTOMRUU (It's a Miri HD2 WM6.5.X (23133) V18) (Do I have to be in the tri color screen? Or can I just plug in the phone and run the custom RUU?
3. After I flashed it, and I want to install Android on it, do I have to do anything about radio version or no? < I am asking this because on my current build, I hear robot voices... After I install the V18 everything should be fine and I don't have to worry about the radio right? Thanks again ^^
Bump! I really need help >< I really want Android on this phone and I keep hearing robot voice when calling..
I don't use the Miri ROM but I would search his thread for all instances of "Android" and see what other users are doing. Sorry I couldn't help more.
Dude... so there's a post in this section, actually one of the first ones in the area... stickyed close to the top (4th thread actually), that talks about EVERYTHING you just asked... and it's specificly for our 1024LEO (T-Mobile HD2)
give it a glance... it also provides the links to HSPL3 and instructions on how to install it.
I ran though this the 2nd day I had my T-Mobile HD2, first phone I've EVER customized, and it's all really straight forward & easy.... just be sure to RTFM
Also, as a bit of help....
when installing a ROM, the RUU will reboot the phone into the Tri-Color to perform the flash... however, if it's the first time the phone has been plugged into the computer while at the TRI-Color... the flash process will time out before the computer finishes installing the drivers required to see the device.... so I suggest going to the TRI-Color manually and pluging the phone into the computer... let the computer install the drivers (when finished, you will see the words change from SERIAL to USB in the white area of the Tri-Color screen) then run the ROM install. The RUU can be run both from the OS and from the Tri-Color
Oh, thanks!
Last question. Currently I have a official ROM from HTC, and when I boot up android, everything works fine except that when I make call I hear a robot voice.
Will flashing to custom rom fix this problem? Or do I have to update the radio? :|

Official T-Mobile ROM? it's possible... both my Fiancee and I have the HD2, I flashed to the Energy ROM, and she used a kitchen and made a custom version of the T-Mobile ROM... when running Android mine works fine on voice, she however gets the robot...
we both flashed to the radio to Leo_Radio_2.12.50.02_2
I recall seeing something about formatting the SD card and trying again to fix the robot voice issue... but I would suggest doing some searches in the HD2 Android Development section first (found in the "other" HD2 section )... I know a lot of people were reporting that issue, so I'm sure someone has "The Fix" for it.
last bit... remember to ALWAYS check if a ROM is TMOUS supported before you flash... getting a ROM from this section is a safe bet (and i think a lot of the custom ROM cooks are starting to cook the Android loader in... I know the Energy ROMs have it) but when you start going to ROMs in the Android Development section made specifically for running Android you need to make sure.

Can't install Magdlr?

I've tried to install magdlr 1.10 1.11 1.12 and 1.13, but none of them will install on to mu HD2. I can get so far as to the screen where it SHOULD be downloading, but it won't go past 0% can anyone tell me what I'n doing wrong?
What Windows version are you running?
Have you tried this thread.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948

Tried that originally; wasn't the problem.
Sorry, not DAF.exe.
It's ROMUpdateUtility.exe.
Try that.
I'm very new to this, though not the flashing of ROMS.
This may help someone as green as me...
After a few hours of staring at a black screen with some very tiny text at the top I decided to update my radio. I had a stock ROM on the HD2 so the radio version was about 2.08, I think.
Having flashed Radio 2.15.50.14 I more or less instanly had a loading screen with a nice animated Andriod, and a few minutes later was booted into Andriod.
So, make sure your Radio is fairly up to date!
yep, thats instruction 2 in pretty much all the 'how to' threads, right after '1 apply HSPL'. But finding it out the hard way will make you remember it, hehe.
Hah! I was dead tired when I posted last night and this is in the wrong thread :-(
I'll now try and put it where it belongs...

MAGLDR fail - can't reach bootloader

Friends and forumies,
being sick in bed under fever unavailable to do much, thought to take the best from it and to upgrade my HD2 in Android!
I choosed a ROM, it was the HUPER-DROID, by Pongster and his team, along with a great process description both written and in video.
Installation of HSPL 2.08 was successful.
Installation of MAGDLR was successful
...but then...
the phone started the process to reboot but it DIDN'T. It freeze in the white screen writting "HTC" {in the tutorial video 7:22} and it doesn't proceed in bootloader...
Through the 3color screen I get connected through USB and re-run the MAGLDR 1.13, nothing changed.
I went on trying the MAGLDR v1.11 and v1.10 (desperate indeed), nothing changed.
Of course hard reset does't work.
Let's see the bright side, Virgin UK windows6.5 ROM was a problem which I got rid of(!), but now I stuck with practical new phone which is dead.
I really like my HD2 and I wouldn't like to leave it by so easy.
Any help is welcome.
Thanks in advance,
NickolasV
p.s. Before I make the post I have been searching and searching..! I didn't found anyone with the same problem. And because I don't have the minumim post I can't post in the original thread of pongster.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769026
I won't start spaming the forum to achieve this, if anyone want to fell free to contact the developers team on my half.
Thanks

Just a thought dude, have you tried simply flashing Stock ROM and trying again?
Magldr wont appear unless radio is 2.15.50 AND spl is 2.08.hspl
enter bootloader, flash radio, adjust spl if necessary, magldr will work.
If the winmo rom you just removed was 3.14 the radio will be fine, any other version it will need changing.
I'm totally a newbie.
I get up to that point by following step by step instructions.
Tigermoto this is my intent to do (if possibly) and to reverse the proccess. I'll start looking for it in HD2-windows6.5 section, I believe I'll find something there.
Samsamuel I have HSPL 2.08 install, as the proccess said. There is nothing about radio. I came acrooss this term by reading in the forum. How I can check it?
Men you are FAST!!!

SPL?

I'm trying to fix a co-workers' HTC HD2. It *had* WM 6.5 but she somehow installed SPL 3.03 (?) and I have been unable to make ANY progress with flashing a ROM onto her phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Note: I'm only familiar with working on my Captivate, the XDA community has been good to me in the past, hoping some of you can spare a few minutes to help me help out my co-worker.
Download HSPL4, boot into bootloader (tricolor) and flash HSPL 2.08.
BTW: Wrong forum!

@syngamer if its Android that you want to put on the phone then read the requirements in the above thread before you start. As you have SPL 3.0.3 on the phone you will want to follow *THIS* guide to install HardSPL and select HSPL 2.0.8 from the list or Magldr wont run properly. Also boot into the bootloader and make sure you have a new radio as that can cause problems too.
MArk.
Thanks guys, but no matter which guide/tutorial I try I keep running into the ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR
you should give more detail, especially things like the full filename of the file you are using that gives the error, and details of what you are doing to perform the flash, and details of what you think you mean by ''It *had* WM 6.5 but she somehow installed SPL 3.03 '' since thats a normal spl?
ALso, is it a normal hd2, or is it a tmous hd2? (tmous is t mobile US and has green send key red end key, and its very important to know which it is)

It's a T-mobile HD2. She started trying to flash Android on it and got cLK 1.14 but couldn't progress from there.
well i cant really help with the next steps, cos ive never used cLK, its a bit too advanced for me, give me teh simplicity of magldr any day.
You didnt explain the errors tho, , i mean, if you have cLK installed, you should be using fastboot to flash cwm next i think, whereas teh error you describe sounds like you are trying to flash with teh phone in bootloader(stripey screen)?

Well, I've got Magldr installed, CWM is now on there and from there I'm set. Currently flashing (trying to at least) NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V3.2a_NAND_(Android-2.3.7).
EDIT: holy ****, that was fast. I currently see an HTC logo...wondering if first boot takes awhile like most...and disregard. It's now loading. Success! Thanks for the links/guides everyone! This is why XDA is the best.
Congrats on your restoration f the HD2!
BTW she can dual Boot the HD2 if she likes

Wow, you need to read a LOT more carefully. You seem not to understand most of the key terms here, you have not got HSPL 3.14 you have Official stock ROM 3.14. Fortunately, that makes things much easier. See this guide in order to flash NAND Android. You will need HSPL but you can skip the step about flashing a new radio as your current stock ROM conveniently gives you this. Please ensure you read this THOROUGHLY before flashing as, although you wouldn't brick your device if you messed up, you will waste your time flashing things again.
For the first time flash I would try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783 It's easier when you have all in one tool.
^+1 on that
just got another one with WM6.5
just ran the HD2 toolkit & now it's Android & ready for WP7
