can you give more info please,
what radio did you flash and what rom?
thanks

Like I said it's HTC HD2 from T-mobile.
I've recieved it unlocked with ROM "Moon light 1.23" and Hard SPL 2.08 is installed.
Moon light had some bugs and I've decided to flash the device with "HTC_Leo_WWE-djet". Install went fine but the device refused to load futher then the screen with "Stick Together". I was told that it is becouse of old version of radio, so I've dowloaded "Leo_RADIO_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2.nbh" and tried to install it.
And faild. Please advise.

Hi. did you actually try downloading directly from your local HTC website the last original ROM inserting the serial number from your HD2?
if you took off the battery and put it back, when starting your device pressing down volume key and power on at the same time.. does it enters to bootloader?
if it enters to bootloader, consider trying a task29 cleaning and only then flash the ROM.

If you have a USA tmobile, (tmous) then radio 2.05.51.05 has killed it and it is dead.
DOes it say tmobile on the case? does it have green send key and red end key? (all other hd2 have all white keys)

HD2 stuck at the HTC boot screen

Hello, I have some problems with my mob.phone HTC HD2: after using Flash mobile stop working, then I tried install windows and tried turn on first time and my phone shows white screan with name HTC and don`t work at all,then i tried reset and Hard reset all setings and turn on again and than screan appears again with name HTC.
When i conect my phone to pc by usb, so my pc can`t find that phone.
Can you help me with this problem.
Thank you.
you should get your stock rom, ONLY your stock rom, extract the file ruu_signed.nbh
copy that file to your sd card formatted to fat 32 rename the file to leoimg.nbh
phone off
hold volume down
tap power (keep volume held)
phone should boot to three colors screen and start to flash.
this will ONLY work with original rom.
Thanks for Help.
Same problem......
I am also stuck in the white HTC screen, (R 2.06.51.07 G 15.30.50.07U D 1.66.76641). I can flash from SD card and so i tried, using the image in the latest official RRU, no way, it doesn't fix the problem.
I didnt try any unofficial rom, i just updated to the latest rom from HTC, it worked fine. The problem occurs after i had to restart the phone while trying to connect to a xifi AP...
Any idea what i should try now ?
Thanks. You saved my day.

OMG! Thank you so much! I love you!!!!!! I was stuck on boot because my flash failed and i followed your instructions and now i can flash again!!! i was so worried and if it weren't for you i would be screwed. Really you are a HUGE help! Keep the good work up
how long did you guys have to wait till the htc rebooted after that flash? cause ive been waiting for over 30 minutes and i thought i made that wrong.
Note: ive used HSPL fist, then flashed it with energyleo.23547, but energyleo kept stuck in bootloader
now im pretty afraid of loosing manufactors warranty ...
well lads, pay attention: ive fixed that my problem all by myself. HINT: ive kept holding the buttons for to long, so the device got stock while starting up. so dont press the voldown-button for too long, maybe only for 2 seconds!
hard reset
Remember boys and girls - if you get stuck on the bootloader you can also do the following:
1. Remove the battery to turn the phone off, leave 3 seconds
2. Replace battery and hold down the vol down button and turn on your device to get into the bootloader
3. It should say 'serial'. Plug your USB cable in and it'll change to 'USB'
4. Flash your stock ROM as normal using ActiveSync method. This will also reinstall the SPL (in the case of people who can't get past the first white HTC screen). I did this after the first (and only) time I tried to do it the SD card method. Put my stock SPL back on my phone

im pretty sure that flashing over usb won't do the spl. only sd card flashing can touch the spl.
When I tried to flash (after installing HSPL) using the sd card method and it bricked I went into the bootloader and it put my stock SPL back on - hence why I said if the sd card fails

I'd be inclined to suspect that In your case the spl was flashed during the failed sd card flash, so was already stock spl when you then flashed the stock rom over usb.(which of course being stock doesn't need hspl )
Hi Guys
I'm having the same problem, however, I bought the phone second hand. My question is how do I find out what my stock ROM is?
cheers

you download HSPL, run it, and if your spl is anything else than 1.42 it will give out an error and no harm is done
Hey
Thanks for replying. Do I get the stock ROM from the HTC website, is there a way to get it as a .nbh file as I am currently on a mac.
thanks

White Screen and HTC logo
I have found a similar problem, I flashed the HSPL rom following the instructions to the letter in the NOOB section.
Restarted my HTC HD2 having hard reset, and it would start and begin the installation and setup, once the setup completes, the software requests a soft reset, at this point my phone hangs on the white boot up screen with the HTC logo.
What am I doing wrong?
Stuck on White HTC Screen after ROM update
Why is it that, having run the HSPL update on my HD2 and checked that its successful, does my phone hang on the white HTC boot screen when it reboots after setup.
I have installed the energy rom, the most recent version. It still hangs at the boot after the rom does the soft reset...
Help please?

I have now installed a 'Leo_RADIO_15.31.50.07U_2.07.51.05 **(from HTC **???? )' then re-installed the Energy Rom, but still getting stuck at the white boot screen after the first reboot, so I have now done a hard reset and the phone still hangs...
Any more ideas?

Possibly bricked HD2, please help.

Hey, so I have an HD2 that was flashed badly. No problem, enter bootloader, reflash, right?
Strangely enough, it was acting strangely, and would freeze while in bootloader mode (plug in, nothing would recognize it, plug out and USB is still on the screen).
I pull the battery, try again, and get to flashing the Radio, it stops at 96%, and then fails. Try to do the recovery, but when I restart it, I a triangle with an exlamation mark (!), and I can't enter bootloader.
So, is that it...?
Oook, so I got into bootloader, flashed the HardSPL ver to 2, trying to flash the radio again, and it's not moving at 0%...
I'm having a similar issue. I have cotulla's HSPL 2.08 and I cannot flash ANY rom, no stock t-mobile, no android, nothing! Someone please help us! I would hate to see our HD2's go in the drawer and be forgotten

Try and flash the stock (or branded) ROM, either by USB or SD method.
No, I installed that update when it came out, seemed to make the phone worse so I went back to 2.13

a friend was doing similar ...
he upgraded to cotulla's HSPL 2.08 no problem, but when updating to most recent radio to allow him to play with putty or energy it froze at 96% and now just boots to ! screen
will not acknowledge attempts to SDcard flash, and his attempt to flash with latest stock HTC rom fails at random spots between 1% and 45%
going to grab an old stock rom and try voldown/power into tricolor and downgrade I guess
may have had some success ... seems his sdcard was formatted as FAT not FAT32 (doh!)
put duttys latest on the card and sd flashed that no problems, then put latest radio on card and sd flashed that, made it to 100% but 10 mins later and radio flash attempt still sitting at 'update in progress' with bar at 100%
guess I'll try with HTC stock via sd now
no joy there either ... hangs after attempting to flash the first radio portion
RESULT! seems the root cause was cotulla's HSPL 2.08
Ran HSPL_2 went back to 1.66-HSPL
then installed stock 1.48.405.2 which flashed completely and cleanly
phew
hd2 died help!
i accidentaly flashed an incorrect radio rom and thats where my problem started. although it still vibrates continusly once i put the battery back but im not sure if i can revive this. please help me out.
I managed to flash the latest radio successfully with 1.66-HSPL in place.
I just bullheadedly continually kept reattempting to sdcard flash just the latest radio, maybe 15-20x it either locked or gave me RSA errors.
Just before I was about to fling it into the fireplace, it just *worked* for no apparent reason ...
Just whacked Dutty's latest on there, and now happily looking at the 'tap next to begin screen'

[Q] HD2 Stuck at Lock Screen

1. I bought a used HD2 with Froyo installed.
The Issue that I encounter is the touch screen gets stuck at the lock screen, if it goes to sleep and I try to wake it up, I cannot slide to open.
2. So I decided to install Gingerbread on it, I can do the setup, once the phone goes to lock, I try to wake it up, but can't unlock. Even when I reboot, touchscreen is unresponsive, tried to take battery in/out, nothing works.
3. So I decided to restore to factory by installing the "RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.1_Radio_Signed_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship"
Rom
4. Everything wipes, I can load back to windows, touch screen works, then it goes to sleep.
Guess what, I can wake it up where the screen comes up by pressing the buttons, but the touchscreen slide for lock won't respond.
I even tested by calling I can answer the phone by pressing the call button, but no touch screen response.
Any help what I can do here?
Thank you!
How you installed original ROM
If you mean the original t-mobile rom.
I held down power plus the volume down button, until I went to the tri-color screen.
Then connected USB, until it said USB, and ran the Rom exe
It wiped everything from what I can tell and brought me to Windows.
I thing the best for hd2 is when format sd card and put in it stock rom for hd2 and flash from there
fyi - when i take out the battery and reboot in the phone, the touchscreen does not work at all.
Not sure which rom i should install.
well , I thing you must put stock rom from htc.com , because maybe you have some bug in the phone , I had similar problem before , and i put stock rom from htc.com , and then install hspl radio rom magldr cwm aggain and everything ok after that
Well Android was on the rom, so I went to T-mobiles website and installed the stock rom, but still issues, touch screen now not responding.

The ROM you flashed is a stock T-Mobile ROM. It is just the older version look for the 3.14 ROM on the HTC site or go to T-Mobile.com to download it. You will have to enter the IMEI number from behind the battery if you go to T-Mobile.com. also you can download them from the T-Mobile text and stock ROMs thread in the T-Mobile Windows Mobile 6.5 Development forums. Do not use the 2.01 ROM from that thread though it contians a radio ROM version 2.05.50.11 and that radio will brick a TMOUS HD2. Also I suggest running a task 29 on your HD2 fort then install the ROM. .Just Google Task 29 for HTC HD2 and you will find it.
but you installed the original rom with USB right , i thing you must try to install the rom from sd card
So I installed a rom from T-mobile still no luck, touchscreen not responsive.
For Task29, should I run 'Task 29 w/o mitty', then do the install for the t-mobile rom?
Thanks
Yes - I installed the T-mobile rom from USB via the PC.
How am I suppose to install it via SD and what difference does that make?
Thanks
I ran Task29, then did the t-mobile rom, touchscreen not responsive at all now.
i dont know if it a software issue or hardware now.

Go to the "[TUT] Flash your ROM / Radio via microSD" thread to learn how to flash via SD card it is easy.
And yes you may just have a hardware issue, usually it is the digitizer that has malfunctioned when you lose touch capabilities.
So what is the advantage of doing it by SD?
By the way I reinstalled MAGLDR and Gingerbread, still no go, the buttons work but no touchscreen.
How did the guy get the touchscreen working initially when i tested it today, but it stopped working when i was there, he told me to just install a newer rom.
i fell for it and now its not working.
i guess its digitizer but can't be for sure because it was working this morning for a bit.
thanks

Ì just know instalation via Sd is better , but you sure the screen is fine I just ask
p.s
just try to install stock rom via SD maybe this bug will be fixed
I'll try it - otherwise will have to see if a hard reset does anything, read about that too.
last recourse is to find a specialist to repair it or something
the screen is in mint condition

Just to let you and others know the deference between flashing via USB and flashing via SD card is this. When flashing via USB if you have HSPL on your HD2 it will not get reverted to standard SPL if you flash an official ROM. If you flash via SD card your HSPL will get reverted back to standard SPL if you flash a Official ROM. Also flashing via SD card is a little safer because you have no cable to get accidently unplugged in the middle of the flash.
I'll probably try this tomorrow, but after I do it with the SD card and it does not work.
Will I be able to redo the HSPL easily?
Ugh - such a hassle buying off craigslist.
thanks for all the input by the way

As long as you have a SPL that is in the list below after you flash the ROM you will have no trouble flashing HSPL back to your HD2.
SPL 1.42.0000
SPL 1.62.0000
SPL 1.66.0000
SPL 2.07.0000
SPL 2.08.0000
SPL 2.10.0000
SPL 3.03.0000
Reason to believe that a hardware problem, the proposed repair inspection

Branded T-Mobile phone stuck on bootscreen

Hi folks,
I have a T-Mobile branded HD2 that gets stuck on bootscreen. Since this one is owned by the company I work for I should not flash custom ROMs or whatever. I got it from a colleague with this error.
What I did is downloading the latest official ROM from HTC with T-Mobile branding, extracted the .nbh file and stored it as LEOIMG.nbh on its SD card. I flashed the ROM, removed battery, put it back in and immediately did a hard reset. Still no luck it keeps stuck in the boot screen showing the ugly circle. No animation, no nothing.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Chris
What is the full name of the official ROM you got .and did I understand you correst you got it from the T-Mobile website? Also what does it say when you put it in BOOt loader?
Filename:
_HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_TMO_DE_1.72.111.4_Radio_CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship.exe
Download from:
http://www.htc.com/de/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=2
I am not sure what you mean with bootloader? VolDwn+Power?
PB1100 HX-BC
SPL-1.66.000 XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(Touch) 0x50
Let me know in case you need more details.
It gets even more weird...
I put the phone on charge (switched off). It suddenly switched itself on and then booted into windows. It came to the point where it asks for the PIN. I entered it and as soon as it accepted the code it rebooted again and is stuck on the same screen as ever.
Sorry I was changing my ROM, That is why it took a minute, Are you sure you have a T-Mobile HD2? Cause it says in the name of the ROM you posted that it has a 2.07.51.22 and that radio is deadly to a T-Mobile HD2.
Does it have a green send button and a red end button?
Also did you enter the serial number of your HD2 in the HTC site to verify that this ROM is for your HD2?
What you said about it rebooting when you plugged the charger in is weird.
I bought this HTC (and several others) all from T-Mobile, since we got some company agreement. When I first got it disfunctional it booted up with this circular bootscreen in T-Mobile colors. I personaly own a Desire HD, so I know about the uncustomized bootscreen.
This is T-Mobile for Germany, not UK or US. For the US version the radio won´t work since bands are different. I have heard about that...
This device does not have colored buttons.
Yes, I have entered the serial number on this site and it has been validated. Then I downloaded and unpacked it just the way it is described in this forum.
I also tried to download the original, latest, unbranded HTC ROM, but it did not validate my SN.
I have reformatted the original 2GB SD card with FAT32 and tried the same. After it says UPDATE SUCCESS it does nothing. Is this correct?
I took off the battery and after a couple of seconds back in, doing a hard reset. It then still got stuck on the bootscreen.
Ok do this download the Task 29 by ShaDrak from post #1 of the Task 29 thread here on XDA and run a Task 29 on the HD2 then download HSPL 4 (link in my sig) and flash HSPL 3.03. then try to flash your ROM again. If it flashes successfully then use the HSPL utility to reset y our correct SPL. I will have to go see if I can find the correct SPL for you if you don't know whioch one it is.
Thanks for your help, but I think I´ll rather return it for a new one then. This HD2 is for testing our mobile website, so one developer will need to wait a little longer for a replacement. This smartphone is 3 weeks old (half a week of use due to vacation), so I do not want to brick it and stick with it. Last time I did HSPL was with my old diamond, feels like a decade ago.
I am limited with downloads at my company due to firewall restrictions and I am not allowed to install programs. I am glad that I got USB allowed, though I am part of the admin crew
I´d even take it home, but I do not have windows running on any of my computers.

This is what I mean by bootloader, once you see the multicolor bootloader screen connect it to your computer via USB and wait for the Serial to change to USB and Right click the RUU for the ROM and run as administrator.
I understand you not wanting to brick it and your issue with downloads, that does suck. But the task 29 just does a wipe of the ROM partition of the NAND memory and reformats that partition. Task 29 is a very small download also, very very small, the same with HSPL 4. I suggested HSPL for as it will disable the CID check on the flash and allow you to flash a ROm that is not for that particular HD2. And all you have to do to revert back is run the HSPL again but pick the SPL not the HSPL you want, it ask you what version of HSPL or SPL you want to flash. Also you have a International HD2 and they are not as prone to bricking as the TMOUS because they can be flashed with any radio version for the HD2.
It comes to my mind that I have a damn old windows installation on my computer. Maybe I´ll give it a try at home over the weekend.
The phone does not even switch from serial to USB mode as you described. Could it be because there is no active sync installed? I tried it with my personal Desire HD and I got access to its SD card.
How do I find out which SPL to flash to have it back to its original state? Is it the 1.66.000 that was shown in bootloader? Where do I get it?
Go into the Bootloader and it should say the SPL version
Mines for example is
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
CotullaHSPL
If yours should say SPL-(version number) without the HSPL/Cotulla since it shouldnt have HSPL
If Windows has the drivers for the HD2 installed (Active Sync/Center installed) it will say USB as long as the plugs and the wire are good if it stays stuck on Serial that just means either the HD2 isn't detecting windows or Windows isn't detecting it

Yes I think the SPL 1.66 is the SPL for the 1.72.111.4 ROM you are trying to flash. The phone is technically suppose to install the drivers when you connect it to a computer in bootloader, but I have had to download and install the ActiveSync and the Windows Mobile Device Center too to get a computer to recognize my HD2 in bootloader (two separate computers) so yes installing the latest ActiveSync on your computer can help as it has device USB drivers with it.
Dont install ANYTHING.
If the phone is only 3 weeks old, send the damned thing back for a replacement.
Had the same problem with a european t-Mobile HD2. Sometimes (rarely) let me boot into windows, but mostly didnt.
Sent it back to HTC and they fixed and returned it within a week. Actually they said on their site that they were fixing it, but I ended up with a new phone......
So... either return it to your supplier for replacement, or send it off to HTC
Andy
I don´t know how, but I got it running on the day we have been discussing.
If I only knew how it worked I´d let you know.
After all this I put it on the charger and retried a last time before I would have taken it home (read above). I flashed the new T-Mobile branded ROM and it just worked.
Thanks for your help!

Reflash Rom

A friend gave me his non-working HD2 to try fix. It would only boot to a white screen (no HTC logo). I was able to get to the multicoloured screen by pressing the vol down + power button. I tried flashing the latest RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship rom via USB but repeatedly it got as far as 1% then gave me an error 270 message. I then extracted the image, copied it an sd card and tried to install from the card. It seemed to go ok until it stopped at 4% then rebooted. I now get as far as a white screen plus HTC logo but no further. Any attempt to flash another rom from the sd card gives an error 00028002 'not allowed' then I get the multicoloured screen but the SPL has changed to 3.03.0000 from I think 2.08 but I can't be certain. Perhaps with hindsight I should have written down what the old screen said!
Any ideas to rescue the situation willingly accepted.
Thanks,
Geoff.
With SPL being stock, you don't have many options. You can try flashing HSPL and then stock winmo/other OS. Or you can try to flash original stock through SD.
By the way, if the device was originally broken because of an overheating issue, you might have to cool the device before attempting to flash anything.
Good luck.

A friend gave me his non-working HD2 to try fix. It would only boot to a white screen (no HTC logo). I was able to get to the multicoloured screen by pressing the vol down + power button. I tried flashing the latest RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship rom via USB but repeatedly it got as far as 1% then gave me an error 270 message. I then extracted the image, copied it an sd card and tried to install from the card. It seemed to go ok until it stopped at 4% then rebooted. I now get as far as a white screen plus HTC logo but no further. Any attempt to flash another rom from the sd card gives an error 00028002 'not allowed' then I get the multicoloured screen but the SPL has changed to 3.03.0000 from I think 2.08 but I can't be certain. Perhaps with hindsight I should have written down what the old screen said!
Any ideas to rescue the situation willingly accepted.
Thanks,
Geoff.

the first thing to happen when you sd card flash a stock rom, is that hspl gets removed, or if it isnt present, teh stock spl gets updated to teh one contained in teh new rom. Then the phone reboots into the new bootloader, and flashing starts.
What happened to you is it removed hspl, rebooted, and the fresh 3.03.0000 detected that the rom region/carrier doesnt match the phones region/carrier, and so failed.
That being said, teh fact that it wouldnt flash over usb is worrying, im leaning towards a faulty phone, but its early days yet.
Try setting hspl again, hspl4, set 3.03.hspl (not .0000) and try flash the rom you listed again, over usb, and report back.

I've got a very similar problem to this. My phone only boots to a blank white screen. When I hold the volume down button when turning it on, I can get to the bootloader.
From there, sometimes I can set 3.03 hspl, but most of the time the phone freezes at 0%. If I try to flash a stock rom, it stays frozen at 0%. If any of these updates work, then it still only boots to the HTC logo on the white screen.
I'm trying to flash via USB, could this be a faulty phone? I wonder what could be faulty?

yea sounds like it, lots of reports of exactly this, some kind of hardware probably, though JTAG may help.
