This all depends on if the stock TmoUK rom includes a radio rom that is sim locked really. Personally, i wouldn't update unless i knew there was something in the new rom that would fix a problem i was having.
i downloaded RUU_Leo_TMO_UK_1.72.110.4_Radio_CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship Firmware

That will probably sim lock the phone if it came sim locked.
Search for and download Dutty's NBH Tool. Use it to extract the NBH into individual NB files and then rebuild the NBH file containing only the OS and SPLASH files.
If you do it correctly, you can flash the ROM safely to your phone without the risk of re-locking the SIM due to the radio and you won't need to worry about changing the SPL and re-locking that either.
thanks for the replay but i dont know how exactly i suppose to do that
the Rom RUU EXE file and dutty can open nbh

Why not just just flash the HTC 1.66 WWE ROM rather than the T-Mobile version (1.72)? It is the same but without the T-Mobile guff. That is what I have done with my T-MUK HD2.
I flashed mine with the 1.66 WWE rom to get shot of the T-Mobile stuff, and all is well. It did not remove the unlock. I tried a cooked rom and different radio rom a while back and that was fine also.
Hope this helps,
Chris.

you mean it is ok to flash RUU_Leo_TMO_UK_1.72.110.4_Radio_CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship rom without any troubles.
err no he said that he flashed the generic 1.66 rom (which is sim unlocked anyway) and that was ok. what you have is the tmouk branded 1.72 rom that shipped on the phone. This also includes the radio rom that shipped with the phone THAT IS SIM LOCKED. If you flash the file you have without removing the radio rom from it you will effectively restore your phone to the as shipped state.
AND IT WILL BE SIM LOCKED AGAIN!!
Can someone please answer me if it is ok to flash that Rom . if not please provide me with the same rom but without the sim lock
How Can I remove the Radio rom form the official T-mobile rom it is RUU file
I extracted the NBH file and got 769.nb, 896.nb, 1552.nb, 1553.nb, 2336.nb , PrimarySplash.nb , SPL.nb and Windows.nb. which one of them should i remove and which one should i compine again in NBH to flash it . which one is the radio rom.
Hello !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! anybody There

now the phone cant even boot back to the main page like i cant diel phone calls i remove the sd card
and try turn on phone but triangle on screen thats it...
plz help
thank you
you have used the wrong rom. you need to find an original rom for your region and provider. (example if your phone is german and vodafone then you need the vodafone german rom)
once you find the correct rom do what you did last time and it will start.

oh in that case it is easy.
go to rom development section, find the "leo official roms" thread, look in first post first link.the rom you need says o2 in the name.
if you are trying to downgrade so you can put hspl on your phone look in the 1.43 folder)
there isn't an O2 1.48 ROM in the 4Shared folder, only their 1.43 one
o2 uk have only released one rom. no 1.48, no 1.66, only 1.43...are you sure your phone is an actual o2 phone? did you buy outright from o2? car phone warehouse perhaps?

i just bought the phone on ebay and it was already 1.66 he said he done this update thru htc and he says he got it on carphone wherehouse but im using an 02 sim not sure if its simlocked
does this help
thanks
OK, so it isn't an o2 locked rom. It should be a wwe one.
personally i would try this
http://www.4shared.com/account/file..._WWE_1434051_Radio_.html?sId=wJvHvpUN96nuOQU8
rom first
That is the 1.43 wwe rom. download, extract the ruu_signed.nbh, copy to sd card, reboot into bootloader, if it flashes, all good. You can then instal hspl, and flash any rom you like BY USB.
Sim lock is nothing to do with rom lock.
Excuse my maybe silly question but...
Why would we want to downgrade the ROM version??
(Beside of the need to send it to the repair of course)

so that you can instal HSPL and flash other roms. (HSPL needs SPL 1.42 or it wont instal)
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze....I am desperately in need of a Orange France original Rom, as i need to return the phone to orange and i need to get the HSPL off it and the regular one on.
If i put on a non orange France rom, ie. the shipped WWE one, or the French one, from HTC, they will know that i had to use a HSPL in order to overwrite the Orange rom.
Many thanks

Orange LEO - Original ROM
You can find it here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/357315236/ROM_Leo_Orange.rar
I didn't test it as i use TMOUS 2.10 and I'm good with it.
Thank you so much, i am downloading it now.
Just in case anyone does a search on Orange France HD2, be careful. I have two of them, bought just before christmas, and both are defective and need to be returned to Orange. If you have a defective one, it will start powering itself off for no reason whatsoever. The problem will get more frequent, until it stops powering up or accepting power completely. If you have a cooked rom on it, you will need to restore the original spl AND Rom while you still can, and before it goes wrong, or you will not be able to power it up to revert to the original ones.
As i said this has happened to 2 phones, one after about a month and the second one after 2 months...both have the same rom and HSPL as you can see from my signature.
By the way, i also have one that came from O2 in the UK (Jan delivery)...no problems with that yet...fingers crossed!
you find it in the forum htc hd french.if it's wrong I have a true one complete.send me an help
Thanks for the kind offer
Hi Rayman...you said: you find it in the forum htc hd french.if it's wrong I have a true one complete.send me an help"
Someone has very kindly posted a link to a copy of the Rom ( above) and am about to test it...fingers crossed!...Thank you so much for the offer though...I will let you know if it does not work!
The Franch France Orange official Rom is on this link and has apparently been tested by another member,,,I am about to try it!
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BC4FGYH4
Ok...this is the follow up....The Rom worked and is the French Orange one, only problem is it has not changed the HSPL back to the original SPL?
I am asking for help on this in another thread, and will report back when i get somewhere.
If anyone else has any bright ideas i would be more than happy to hear them!

Hi!
Before all, you need to flash an official HTC ROM that contains the SPL 1.42 (like the version 1.43.406.2) from SDCARD.
Just put into the SD card the RUU_signed.nbh extracted from this shipped rom, renamed into leoimg.nbh. Then boot + volume down.
It will flash it and change your HSPL back to 1.42.
After that, you can flash the Orange one with SSPL method.
I hope someone will confirm this
P.S. : I uploaded the LEOIMG.nbh file I extracted from the official HTC ROM 1.43.406.2 French.
You can find it here (it's a ZIP archive) : megaupload.com/?d=HRHGOJHC

Thanks Ruth
I am downloading your image now...Thank you so much, as my serial did not work on the HTC site.
Also what is the "SSPL method", is that with the Gold card, because if it is, gold card method is no longer available.
Of course i will post how i get on with this, once i get the necessary rom and have loaded everything. I am sure this will be very useful to lots of people on here, because it is sounding like quite a few people are having manufacturer problems with their phones.
Do you think Orange France would be able to complain if the phone was returned with an official rom on it? I would have thought as long as it is an official rom and not a hacked rom, it does not matter if it is HTC or Orange's rom.
Another member is looking for a list of serials which i will also post up here when i get them, so it will make it easier to download the official roms.
Many thanks again for your kind advice.

1) SSPL allows you to flash cooked ROMS (so the Orange one too) without SPL and Radio, so only the Operating System is flashed.
You can get the tool here, with a nice tutorial : forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606713
2) It seems that Orange France is not as ...blind... as others french mobile providers. I think it's much better to return the phone with the original Orange rom.
Has anyone made a dump from the t-mobile german rom? Please share it or write me! I need it now to undo my hspl.
Maybe has anyone the original t-mobile german stock rom?
You are here since 2008?
Please look first in the xda-WIKI:

Besides the stickies here, you find there every ROMs.

I didn't find a t-mobile german rom. Therefore I ask, maybe someone created a dump before flashing with hspl.
there isn´t any t-mobile germany rom.

to disable Hardspl extract ruu**.nbh file and rename to LEOIMG.nbh
put this on your SD card then make hard reset
Before I had 3 HD2 TyTNII devices
2 had a hardware defect
on both devices was not partly filled with the original T-Mobile software
but the original HTC software with HardSPL
I still had full warranty
sorry shurup, you were right.
There is a difference in the HTC German ROM and the German T-Mobile shipped ROM. I bought my HD2 here in Germany and I flashed it with the 1.66 WWE ROM and the only difference I have found is the T-Mobile splash screen during start up. As far as I can tell, all the same programs are on the ROM.

Is it possible to flash this 1.66 WWE ROM on t-mobile rom without hspl? This is important for the warranty. In this case I can claim that the phone has a legal update.

Hi guys,
Need some step by step help.
I believe the HD2 is locked to the O2 in the UK and it is still have the very old 1.48 rom and I would like to upgrade to the latest 1.66 but when I try to download the rom from the HTC site it said the rom is not for my phone after I enter my Serial Number.
So, any one know which SN i need in order to download the 1.66 rom in English WWE? Also, what do I need to install the rom with my O2 locked HD2? I am sure even if I have the rom the upgrade won't let me because it is locked to O2 UK. Please help!
All I want is to make my HD2 better (than the stupid Iphone)

I've already tried and downloaded it using a different serial. The updater then prevents you from flashing as it checks the serial prior to flashing.
Your best bet is to flash using a ROM in the ROM forum section.
mh....changing rom isnt very difficult..
but: i would only do, if really needed.
i'm also using 1.48 and i don't wanna change since an official rom supports landscape manila.
but if you want, do this:
choose the right S/N here and download your ROM.
when you've got it, you need to install HSPL first.
all about HSPL is written in this thread.
after installing hspl successfully, you can run the RUU.exe, which you downloaded from htc.com .
but think about it carefully...it could void your warranty
but all about that in hspl thread.
good luck.
DN41
Instal HSPL2 from the HSPL/HSPL2 thread in rom development. (It is fully reversable, your warranty is only temporarily void)
Then go to the Leo Official Roms thread in rom development, first post, first link, brings up a list of folder
1.42
1.48
1.66
etc etc
Look in the 1.66 folder for one with 'HTC' and 'WWE' in the title (world wide english and HTC unbranded)
Download it, and with your phone connected to usb, run the exe you downloaded.
THis WILL of course reset your phone completely, so be sure and back up your data first.
guys I didn't need HSPL when I updated. I was using the stock ROM, then I downloaded the official 1.66 ROM from this forum (coz my serial gave an invalid error on HTC website). I just connected with USB and ran activesync/windows mobile device manager and ran the .exe file of the update.
so your leo wasn't "branded".
where did you buy it?
DN41
oh yer of course, how n00b of me to forget that. Yer mine was bought online from handtec (official reseller).
EDIT: Sry kingdanny, just ignore my post. You may get confused otherwise.

most cooked roms dont flash over the radio, but if youre really worried go into settings and write down youre current radio version so if you do flash another radio you can just download youre current one and reflash it.

flashing wont lock your phone, whether rom or radio, it wont re lock your phone.
when i got my phone it was sim-locked. and i flashed a cooked rom and want to go back to the official HTC T-mob Uk rom . i head in other thread that it will lock my phone again .
the rom i want to flash and afraid to lock my phone is ROM Upgrade for HTC HD2 (T-Mobile) United Kingdom:1.72.110.4 .
is ok to that without any problems or locking my phone again
