Hi
Have been flashing roms all the time without issue.
I've tried to flash my mobile and get to HSPL boot screen but it doesn't recognise the leoimg.nbh no matter which rom i use
It says 'loading...' on a grey screen then goes to the red/green/blue screen and has 'serial' at the bottom.
i've tried upgrading hspl to 1.66 and also mtty format, oth worked fine, I now just can't flash any rom to the phone
Can anyone advise how I could sort this? could send paypal for your time if you can help me sort it
Cheers
ok
format again microsd to fat32,microsd not microsdhc,
charge your battery,must bt shure your rom its ok not corupted
Hi
Have tried all of this but still no joy at all.
Does anyone else have a suggestion or is there another process that can be used for flashing if a direct flash from memory card doesn't work but the phone is formatted?
Thanks in Advance
Adam
In case anyone has a similar problem:
I installed drivers for phone in bootloader USB mode from the mtty thread.
Set the phone to bootloader and plugged in usb and was able to flash from PC without having to be in winmo
I still can't flash from card but as this way works, it's not an issue.
Cheers

Before anyone ask's I have read all the posts regarding installing the Hard SPL but still have the same problem.
When I connect through Vista 32 via WMDC it recognizes my device fine, I then follow the steps in the tutorials but as soon as I press the button to update the ROM image it goes into the 3 colour screen and then into the updating ROM progress bar were it sits at 0% for ever.
My WMDC has disconnected at this stage and then I get a screen saying communication error which is obvious as WMDC has disconnected.
Is this a WMDC issue/ Vista or am I missing something
I then have to soft reset and it just re boots into my standard ROM.
Any advice woiuld be greatly appreciated
hello
1) connect your polaris to PC
2) run update utility
3) when you see 3 color screen unplug USB and replug it immediately
4) your SPL flash may start
5) when flash end correctely your polaris reboot
6) Flash any ROM you want
Thanks for the quick reply.
Tried doing exactly as you have stated.
Unplug and reconnect in the 3 colour bar screen, after which it goes into the updating screen and sits at 0% for ages until communication error comes up.
My WMDC has disconnected and does not reconnect.
I'm at my wits end!!
Do it from MicroSD, before format it in FAT 32, after rename the file .nbh in POLAIMG.nbh e copy in your microSD, put microSD in Polaris e put it in bootloader ( photo + softreset ) you will see something like IPL, bootloader, SPLASH1, SPLASH2, gsm & OS, press POWER button and wait, it might be long,
never put off microSD, when it finishes soft reset, in the same way you can flash any ROM, always format microSD before.

I think hard-spl can not be installed with sdcard method!
Why not ??? With Trinity you can do it.
cheers guy's for the feedback ,but not sure about the SD method unless someone can confirm it works for Orbit 2/ Cruise.
Somebody out there must have had the same issue as me regards this....what did you do to resolve.

But this is not Trinity...Try it...
I know You can flash polaris if you use jumpspl (this is used by hard-spl flash) or hard-spl (this is used by os and radio flash).
But if you have original spl on you pda, and you want to flash with sd card, you will not use nor jumpspl neither hard-spl.

hi there.
try to hard spl with your sd card not in the device.
go in to bootloader mode (BL mode - by pressing down the Camera button, then using the stylus, press and hold the RESET button at the bottom of the phone and release when tricolor screen appears),
now connect the device to your pc (it should show usb in the white part)
flash what you may... hard spl first, oli's recomended by me.
ItayE,
Did you try the hard-spl flash with sd method? Does it work?
I didn't read it was Vista compliant so I ran it from a windows XP SP2 machine with Active Sync 4.5.
I did mine by taking out the SIM card and the SD Card then resettting and running the HardSPL.
HTH

Cheers for the advice guys I have managed to do it.
I used the Hard-SPL-V2 first which worked fine then I flashed to one of A.Serg roms, very nice and quick it is too.
However my reception bars are down to 2 from 4 that I previously had, although the reception seems ok.
Sim: O2 UK
Rom: 1.52.ASerg.4 WWE
The radio version I have is: 1.58.25.14
Now this is were I am confused.
Can I flash the radio Rom without affecting the o/s Rom, I have downloaded a couple of radio rom versions but not sure if you do it the same way as I am scared of over writing something.
Also could anybody advise if they are in UK on O2 which version gives best reception.
Any further advice much appreciated.
I am afraid my Polaris bricked, but I hope somebody knows a solution. Let me explain:
I turned off my device to get my microsd card out. I put the card in my cardreader to fill it with a lot of music. After that I inserted the card in the polaris, turned on the pda, and I got into the bootloader screen .
I tried to soft reset: bootloader screen again, tried to hard reset: bootloader, tried to flash original rom: rom update complete and after that bootloader, tried to flash several cooked roms: rom update complete and again the bootloader. When I try to charge my polaris it automatically turns on and goes to the bootloader. Flashing with microsd doesn't work. I also tried the thing with mtty, but it doesn't show the usb option in the list...
I DID hard-spl, I was using udk diamond R8 and never had any trouble before, while flashing about once a 2 months. I really am desperate, because I am unable to charge the pda now. I searched well and I only found threads of people who forgot to hard-spl before flashing custom roms.
I hope someone comes up with a brilliant idea, I love my Polaris way too much working and I don't want it to be a nice looking pda that doesn't work anymore.
PLEASE HELP!
I now manage to get into the mtty application, but I don't know if it is a good idea to use it. The problems I found here which could be solved with mtty are different from my problem I think. What would be wise to do? I flashed various original roms, and radios. That seems to work as normal, but after flashing I keep returning in the bootloader screen .
I hope one of you has an idea what to do. If it is something that is involving risk, I think I should do it anyway, because in this current state my Polaris is useless.
a few ideas! maybe they can help!
1) do you have warranty? you can restore back to original spl and then get HTC to ix it!
2) Try flashing your phone without the MicroSD card in place, maybe with the stock HTC Rom
Another option - try to delete all files from your memory card.
Thanks for the replies.
1) do you have warranty? you can restore back to original spl and then get HTC to ix it!
I read the thread about restoring back to original spl. There is stated that you can't restore to original spl if you are stuck in bootloader...
2) Try flashing your phone without the MicroSD card in place, maybe with the stock HTC Rom
I tried a lot of times, but every time after flashing has finished, I return to the bootloader
Another option - try to delete all files from your memory card.
I formatted my memory card in fat32, tried to flash with sd-card. When I turn on the phone it shows about 0.5 seconds something like "no rom image" and returns to bootloader screen
My cruise is still stuck, and I really think about trying things in mtty as a last resort... Anybody who knows what commands I should give in mtty in this situation? All help is appreciated, and if a suggestion makes my polaris work again I will donate the brilliant xda-member 20 euro's!
I have the same fault and have not found a solution. Every time I soft reset I am stuck in the boot loader screen. If I switch off the phone using comm manager then soft reset the phone will boot okay.
The only method I have found to be able to boot properly is to leave the battery out overnight and then start the phone in the morning. Always boots without a problem this way.
To make matters worse the USB port on my phone is broken...
Hi,
I'm kind of new around here.
My problem is as follows:
- TyTN running PaysRom for about 9 months
- Started to get very sluggish
- Unable to get signal
When i booted my HTC the 'R' and 'G' that appear on screen and used to have values in front of it now display 'none'.
So, I connected it to my PC, 'activesynced' it and tryed to install a new ROM, hoping it would solve the problem.
But the new ROM wasn't installed sucessfully and now all I got is a brick.
I can't even connect it to ActiveSync since it's not recognized.
Is there any solution to my problem?
TIA,
hype
Can you get to the Bootloader?
Yes..
By pressing the Ok+Power+Reset on the bottom button, I see the 'RGB'+white thingie, that I believe is the bootloader..
What SPL do you have? Is it Hard SPL V7(2.10)?
If it is, use the sd card method to install a new ROM.
remember to backup your card 1st.
1. Format 2Gb or less sd card FAT32. Copy .nbh file of the ROM you want onto it and rename to hermimg.nbh .
2. Insert card into Hermes and reset into bootloader.
3. If all things have been done right, follow the prompts....
If the radio ROM has died, I'd suggest trying to flash the Shipped Stock ROM 1st and see if that actually fixes the problem with the blank values on R & G. WM06 upgrade of shipped carrier ROM should also work.
Cheers...
Tks for your response.
I tryed the SD Card method already, with no sucess.
The red stripe shows as follows:
Code:
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.03
Everytime I tryed on another ROM I always perfomed it using SafeSPL.
Since I don't have 2.1, what can I do?
Tks for all ur help.
What happens when you try and flash a ROM over?
Do you get any kind of error?
You need to find the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. WM06 upgrade should be OK as the CID should match.
Put Hermes into bootloader and connect to PC after unticking "Allow USB Connections" in Activesyncs settings on the PC.
Run the RUU_Wrapper.exe file of the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. ven though activesync won't etect it, the flash file should. Follow the prompts.
Good luck as this seems to be the only way to fix this.
Good Luck...
You might be able to flash a Stock WM5 ROM using the SD Card method. Worked for me when I had SPL 2.03. In fact that's the only ROM it would let me flash over when mine bricked.
Guys, I have a P3300 that has a non-functioning USB connector. Charging works fine, but it will not sync over USB at all. The device is not detected at all. Even in the bootloader screen, when the USB cable is plugged in, it DOES NOT say "USB" in the bottom corner. Basically, the data functionality of the USB port is fried.
I had used USPL to flash a cooked ROM onto the device, and when the USB port worked, it all went fine. Now, with the USB port not working, I can only flash a stock ROM onto the phone using the memory card method. If I try to flash anything other than the stock ROM, it says "certificate invalid" and won't do it.
I read somewhere that there might be a method of doing the CID unlock by using the memory card, since the phone will not communicate with the computer via USB to use USPL the normal way. Can someone instruct me on how to do that? I have the USPL files on my computer, and simply renaming the .nbh file in order to try to use the memory card method won't work.
Can someone help me figure out how to use USPL or otherwise CID unlock the phone over some method other than USB to the computer? Thanks,
Well you can use activesync over BT, right? That might just do teh trick + SD card flash after it reboots to bootloader.
I might be wrong, it's just a thought
I tried that, but the USPL loader kills Activesync right at the start. So once the phone soft-reboots into the white screen and AS is killed, there is no more BT connection. So the USPL loader fails with an error of not being able to connect.
Can anyone else help?
I faced the same problem. White screen. I removed SIM and SDCARD. So I can flash normally.
Wiki: Artemis SD Card Flashing
Try reading the Wiki on Artemis SD Card Flashing
Those having questions on flashing (i.e. updating) their HTC Artemis could try following these steps 1) Backup e.g. PIM Backup 2) disable standby and hibernation then remove SIM & SDHC cards 3) if necessary then cid unlock 4) recommend hard reset or update to the latest official build 5) if necessary Update SPL to latest 1.11.cmon 6) flash new rom then hard reset 7) put in SIM & SDHC cards and enjoy the result of the hard work by the developer

hello. I exactly have the same problem like the thread poster. my mini usb only charges and cant connect data to any pc. its probably broken as common with using the O2 artemis on a car phone charger and starting the car while the phone is still sitted and charging.
MY QUESTION: does "Artemis SD Card Flashing" doesnt require the USPL? since its CID locked?
Hello,
I recently found back my hold HTC HD2 and when I tried to start it up..It just hangs on the HSPL/SPL coloured screen. When I first powered it up HSPL by Cotulla was on it and it always ran Android.
So I download the Stock Windows Phone ROM from the Internet and installed it, but it still hangs on the HSPL Screen. So I installed the Stock SPL but I didn't help..
Can someone please help me? I really want to use the phone again but it seems there is a problem. There still is a SD-Card in it which has 4GB...Can someone please explain me how to get the phone back to Stock windows phone?
Can someone please help me?
Try removing sd card.
If still same issue leave sd card out & reflash ROM from links below.

I had the same problem bro, do you want android or windows on the phone?
I want the original Windows Phone back on it.
Mister B:
I followed your steps but it didn't fix the problem. When I start up the phone, the three coloured display shows up and it says 'Serial' on the bottom. Tried the reset button several times and even holding down both Volume-buttons to Hard Reset the phone, but it didn't fix the problem.
The phone always worked fine, what is the problem?
Have you tried doing Task29(full wipe) via HD2 toolkit?
Yes, I already tried Task29 before flashing Hard SPL and Original ROM. I really want to get the Phone working again so my Mom can use it!
Hopefuly someone can help my out with this annoying and weird problem.
After installing the stock rom, what did the phone do? Did it restart to the HSPL screen?
Yes, it restarted back to the HSPL screen. It also shows 'Serial' on the bottom and when I connect USB cable It shows 'USB' on the bottom.
Try flashing stock rom from sd card rather than via usb & see what results you get.
I tried flashing the Stock ROM from the SD-card but it didn't help. It still is stuck at the SPL-screen showing 'Serial' on the bottom when I start up the phone.
Which exact ROM do I need to use for a Netherlands(Europa) HTC HD2 (NON-TMOUS!)?
I hope to hear back from you as soon as possible!
Can someone help me please? Tried everything!
