Bought one in China (help with rom needed) - HD2 General

I bought one of these in China. Not a Chinese one, an actual T-Mobile USA one (much cheaper). The current ROM is in Chinese, and everytime it boots up it has a xda-china logo on the start-up screen, so I'm guessing it's a custom job.
Either way, I want to flash it to an English custom ROM, and I won't have a problem following your excellent tutorials. Except, I worry if it's already been flashed with a custom rom then it wall already have HSPL. Is there a way I can check this, and if not, is anything bad likely to happen by attempting to flash it if it is already on the phone?
Thanks for any help.

Boot into bootloader and check to see what is listed there. To get into bootloader: turn the phone off, then hold volume down+power.
Look forward to your response.

It seems to have HSPl installed already although not the latest one.
You shall start flashing custom ROMs straight away
If possible, update the HSPL to 2.08HSPL.

If that just means following the HSPL tutorial I'll do that now.
Thanks for everything.

MicroP(LED) 0x05

amazing, the same question gets asked, and answered two or three times every day for weeks and not one ofthem ever finds the previous questioners threads.
downgrade to ROM 2.10.0 to give you spl 2.08.0000 and then hspl1024(I'm my sig) will work.
better still go find the specific t mobile us section, where every fourth post is either, this question or the answer to this question.

@mod/admin:
please close this thread.
You are posting in the wrong place. Check this out for HSPL http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614 this needs to be done first then flash desired rom/radio. You should be careful which radio and rom you use as incorrect radio flash can brick your device and not all roms are tmous compatible.

I think you forgot to flash Radio ROM - look into thread of the ROM you flashed, there must be info about radios which are "approved"
thing is i dont know which rom is flashed right now and ive no idea about the radio also.

First of all - if you want to do something - read first and gather some info, otherwise you'll have problems.
And if the problem really is with radio, then try THIS first, it should help
just flash a high version radio, which should work regardless of what rom is there.
2.12.50.x or 2.10.50, one of them.
I am flashing the radio from sd and it says
00018003
LEOIMG.nhb - FAIL
Radio - Fail
Update Terminate
Update fail
i am no expert but perhaps try following this method picking a rom you like and also an exceptable radio. good luck

try flashing a different rom and see what happens

oh right its been back to service and got refused,
run hspl2,
choose a stock spl (so 1.66.0000 for a normal hd2 or hspl3 and choose 2.08.0000 for a tmous phone,) and send it back again.
hspl wont change the version =(
oh, well all i can suggest then is you try hspl2, ever option, and hspl3, every option, , maybe one of them can trigger the spl to change.
wont work =(

Urgently need to revert to stock HSPL

Guys,
Help me out ASAP please.
I have an HD2 which screen isn't working and need to give for repair.
The problem is I already flashed Energy ROM and now I need to revert back to stock ROM.
I have reflashed my drive to shipped ROM, but when I go to the boot loader (Vol down power) I get the following:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-1.42.HSPL XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x30
I don't think that is the stock HSPL, or whatever its name is. How do I get my device back to stock situation??? I must give the device tomorrow for repair so I really don't have any time. Have to do it ASAP.
Thanks

Check the link above, and read.
run hspl2 and choose 1.42.0000
That's odd, coz when you flash a stock ROM via SD-Card it practically overwrites everything in the cellphone (including SPL, Radio, bootscreen) to stock values..
Anyway in case you flashed the stock ROM using the customruu utility, just launch hspl3 again---> select SPL 1.42.0000 from the drop down list----> flash that and you should be good to go.

Return HD2 Back to Stock

My touch screen decided to take a crap on me. Tmobile is sending me a replacement in the mail which should be here in about 5-7 days.
I just need some help returning the phone back to stock. I already removed ChunkyRom using Task29. Then booted the phone to the bootloader to flash the updated Tmobile rom. Now when I boot this is what the screen shows.
PB81120 SS-B3
SPL-2.08 HSPL 8g XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x40
My dad has the same phone (completely stock) and this is what his shows:
pb8 ss-b3
spl-2.10.0000 8g xe
microP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(Touch) 0x40
So I am not sure. I just dont want tmobile to charge my account. Thank you for the advice. I tried to follow some of the posts already on this amazing forum but I wasnt having any luck. I promise I tried to search!
Yeh I am having the same exact problem...My screen just stopped working out of no where and now I need to revert back to original rom radio and hspl...anyone got a link or instructions?

Download your official stock rom. Extract it to get the nbh file. Rename that nbh to LEOIMG.nbh. Copy it to your SDcard, and flash in bootload mode. This should reverse your HSPL back to spl

This is the part where I am confused. I renamed the file to LEOIMG.nbh but I dont have a clue how to flash it when I am in the bootloader mode.
you not seached for the million and 1 posts about how to return to stock???if its copied right, instead of boot loader it will have LEOIMG to install..search to do it right
Well I formatted my SD card to FAT32 and put the LEOIMG.nbn on the sim card. Boot the phone to the bootloader and it doesn't automatically go to the other screen that is needed to flash the phone.
This is all you have to do..
This is all you have to do:
1. Download HSPL3_PKG, don't ask where, google it!
2. Extract and run as if you were going to flash the HSPL, hit next on first screen, now you get a drop down list, select 2.08.0000 not 2.08.HSPL.
3. Run the program and tarraaaaa.
4. NOw just flash your stock rom the normal way and not from sd since it still didn't work for me after removing HSPL.

If you have the 3.10 stock ROM then yes that is correct, but if you have the 3.14 stock ROM you need SPL 3.03.0000.

Yea I've mentioned this several times, that the tmous 3.14 doesn't seem to update the spl. Its not a problem because it will run happily on spl 2, unlike regular hd2 which will not run 3.14 on anything less than spl 3.03.
