The radio images at modaco are for the HTC Hero. I was wondering whether or not this radio update would work on my Magic... Try looking in the development section for the newest original magic firmware RUU (it's the official HTC method of updating). This update contains a correct magic radio image (amongst other things). The RUU package should include a readme on how to apply the update. The screen you are seeing on your phone is the original recovery screen so at least we know that your device is not bricked!
Hi,
I'm on the same situation .... my HTC magic not boot. But on my case is impossible run the update menu.
how can I install the original Radio for saphire?
thanks for your suggestions,
This is interesting.
I was considering flashing that EUROPEAN radio to my spare phone (HTC Dream) to basically take the 50/50 chance to see whether or not it would actually register and comply with the device.
So, it's confirmed that this method DOES NOT WORK...correct?
Which radio did you flash again? I'll double-check the link. And which update did you attempt to apply? The 2.1 Hero version of the build...? As in the "enhanced" port. That won't be available for the Sapphire (32B) for a few days. Paul @ Modaco-ANDROID said he is working the kinks out, then fashioning an enhanced version for the Sapphire and apparently the Dream as well.
Hi,
thanks for your reply ... but now, my problem is recover the htc.
I try to entry on the Recovery tool and run fastboot, etc ... and nothing work's ....
thanks for your help
Hmph. That's not a good sign.

Not to say you shouldn't be on the optimistic side of this...but from what you've stated; sounds like you have just created a $300 paper weight! I'm sorry.
If you cannot boot into recovery, cannot run fastboot, and from what I understand you cannot power on your device into a normal loading...that's a serious set of problems. Potentially permanent ones.
NOW, all things considered...have you tried ADB? Can your computer detect the device to run ADB? If so, you might have some luck in that department to uninstall whatever you've done or possibly re-flash the appropriate radio and SPL.
Search tutorials. I cannot offer further assistance for your particular situation. It's in your hands now.
I'm in the same boat.
I'd be interested to find out what this screen actually is. I thought it might be a recovery image but adb devices does not return any information.
None of the usual key combinations to get to hboot or fastboot or recovery will work.
I have the latest rogers update ruu and will try to run that and see if it works.
Wasn't able to use the rogers updater as it wouldn't see the phone.
Spoke to HTC support who seemed not to know what the box with the arrow pointing to a phone screen meant.
They are collecting tomorrow and will re flash it for me.
Whether someone will be able to tell that I was flashing a new, apparently incorrect, radio we'll just have to wait and see.
radio
i have the same thing i tried to install a different radio on the cyn 10.1.1 rom and i had teh same recovery logo. i tried everything. i thing our phone is bricked. i called rogers and they will send me a new phone as i told them i used the rogers update tool. next month ill see if they will charge me for the damage or not.
My phone is back with HTC for repair. Initially they said they would re flash it, but now I understand that they are replacing the main board. It looks like the problem is pretty terminal!
I have same problem, is there any solution for this?
same situation here,any help?
For now there is no solution, maybe serial cable in blue led mode or jtag can help,
read about it in G1 section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591048
This problem is caused by failed radio rom update, I think JTAG will help, but problem is we dont have pinouts for magic. So if anyone have magic with water damage can help us finding pinouts for jtag.

Same problem , but you should go back and download your same SPL & Radio that came with your and go into fastboot and flash theme to your phone , then flash the correct recovery img for your phone model , and hopefully you are good to go , hope this helps .
PS : should be done through your PC , good luck
Magic with box.arrow problem cant go into fastboot mode!

Same problem, not posible solution?or i have to sent to Repair in warranty?

Having my TMOUS HD2 bricked by using Task 29 and 2.09.51 radio, thus losing the warranty, how much does it cost to have it repaired by HTC? Do they even accept them for repair?
Does it even boot to the tri-color bootloader screen? If so, you can fix it (I think). If it is indeed dead, there are some posts describing brief, furtive encounters with a microwave... (wink-wink-nudge-nudge)...
Hope you get your device either fixed or replaced soon...
It is dead, no tri-color bootloader, nothing
does it turn on at all? stuck at the pink/white "stick together screen"?

Since it's less than 2 weeks since you got it, just take it to the T-Mobile store you got it from, and tell them that it just stopped working for no reason. I know it's bad thing to do, but it's better them than you right... I am sure they are prepared for the first set of devices to have some issues
Just be ignorant and tell them that you left the phone charging overnight and the next day morning, it just stopped working. They will just swap the device. Just make sure that you go to the store in-person to pick up the deivce. If you mail it in, they would dignose and probably know you have messed around with it.
I did the same thing with I flashed my device the next day it came out. I flashed a Custom ROM that had a non-compitable radio and it just did not boot. No bootloader mode.. nothing. NADA...
I called the store I got it from, he asked me to come by the next days since he was of all the devices and he was expecting a few the next day. I asked him to reserve one for me for the exchange for the damaged device. I went in the next day.. They just swapped the device. I actually told him to switch the battery from the new device to see if this one works, he said, it does not matter as he had send the whole device back anywayz..
So, good luck. Hope this helps.
Same as above for me except they had no devices left. Out of stock completely with no ETA. I got my refund and I'm back to being HD2'less.
I paid $172 to have me htc blueangel screen repaired if that helps.

Nothing to do with task 29, task 29 is safe. Radios with ..51.. are deadly.
Unfortunately some of the ROM's can be the kiss of death.
I can tell you that you have completely bricked the phone and they can't tell what ROM you have then you can probably get the warranty with HTC. If they discover you have a ROM it will be shipped back to you and they won't even fix it. It's a hit or miss with them.
I sent back one HTC HD with custom ROM and they didn't have a problem. I snet another one back and they declined due to custom ROM.
Just hope you get them on a good day

That's pretty much right....when you flash an incompatible radio to this phone (which that ROM has), that's the surest way to kill your HD2.
You can send it to HTC for repair, where they will likely tell you that you need a new mainboard (CPU, rom/ram, etc) and offer to charge you for it....usually very close to the price of just replacing the phone with a used one.

Can you get into bootloader mode then? Get there and flash a different ROM. Be sure it doesn't contain a .51 radio!

bricked by the radio that rom contains.
sorry.
Got my HTC HD2 rooted and installed droid froyo and it worked for 2-3 weeks, and then suddenly after trying out a program from droid market, called photofun, it just froze, so I removed the battery and put it back in, and it is not coming up at all. Tried hard reset with the vol up/down+power with no luck. Completely dead, would not even go to the boot loader.
So if anyone is in same situation as I was, just search for htc repair in your local CL and I took mine to a local wireless store here and they're able to fix it somehow and cost me $50. Software issue they said.
There seems to be a way to fix a completely dead/bricked hd2, without having to replace the whole mobo, but cannot find any info online. Anyone would like to share please? In case I bricked my phone again or anyone else who bricked their phone.
Hello.
This is my first post, so please be kind to me!
I've spent the past few weeks trying to get my head around what to do in order to flash my HD2 which is on the t_mobile network
The original rom 1.43 i think is driving me crazy and I now dont care if I change the rom and it invalidates the warenty!
In order to HSPL I need to SPL first, but will my device allow this?
I've read through so many threads that I am completely confused and dont know which way to turn, never mind which thread to re-read.
Can someone point me to the sspl, HSPL to upgrade to 1.66
Thanks
Glyn
oh its the 512 version
you are over confusing yourself.
download hspl 2
instal it - choose whichever hspl you like (may as well go for 2.08.hspl)
flash whatever rom you like from usb. (don't forget to flash a compatible radio either before or straight after.)
Thanks for your reply......
so downloan the HSPL from here?
'forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477'
and as I run the program I'll get the option of which version to install?
What should I look for to make sure that the radio is compatible with the rom?
Thanks again and sorry for my ignorance
Glyn
best thing you can do is to read a lot. No need to do enerything in one mad dash.
get HSPL2 from HERE - end of the first post (but read the post, dont just skip to download, )
run it as administrator (right click, run as administrator)
for best results use a usb port on the back of your PC (i.e one directly on teh motherboard, not an external usb slot) it will ask what version you want to install. just go for 2.08.hspl (not 2.08.0000) and let it do its thing. the authors say you should match the version to the rom (so 1.43.hspl for roms that are 1.43 or 1.48, 1.66.HSPL for 1.6 based roms, etc, but it isn't critical, most will run on any HSPL, so dont go changing every time you flash a new rom, no need. If it doesnt work then change it.)
As for radio tips, a radio with .51. in the number, (eg 2.09.51.03) will NOT work with any rom that has the 576meg ram, enabled.
If you flash a rom and all you get when you restart is a grey screen, chances are the radio doesnt match. Boot to bootloader and flash the radio.
But most of all, read stuff.
What about shipped rom's that are .exe files? Do they include radios with it? Also, is there a post you can point me to that has a list of compatible radios with different rom's?
that's where reading comes in. the whole process has so many variants that there is no simple "a b c" that covers everything.
yes the exe includes radio (and also spl if you use sd card to flash -stay away from sd card, use usb and if anything goes wrong you just boot to bootloader and re flash)
the chefs give you all the infoyou need in the first couple of posts. the sticky threads in the rom development section will tell you how to do everything, and any problem you encounter has beenwritten about already. so read,search and read.
I suggest you flash Stock WWE 1.66 ROM first so you can have a feel of how much improvement
has been done from 1.43
you can download it in HTC website.
Thanks for your help so far..
I would like to go for the 1.66 official ROM first, so I'll find that on here first and find the exe file so I dont have to mess about with compatible radio's.
Just before I HSPL it, I would like a copy of the original 1.43 T-Mobile ROM, so better get searching.
Thanks again
Glyn
the original 1.43 T-Mobile ROM is on HTCs website so get it from there as a backup
THANKYOU!!
Thankyou so much for your help and guidance.
Last night I decided to just do it - the phone was so poor I couldn't take it anymore.
3 hours from start of backing up, to installing HSPL2, to flashing with 1.66, anf then restoring data
I cant believe the transformation - I am so pleased I didnt throw it at a wall!!!
So a massive thanks to the members of this community
im in the same boat... got a stock uk hd2 on tmobile and wasn't to flash a new rom but the information is overwhelming and im scared I will flash a wrong rom and kill my phone :0)

theres nothing to it. the 'normal' hd2 which you do have, is about the safest phone to flash in the world today, with HSPL2. The 'radios killing phones' problem that started last week is specific to the t mobile US model only, , the one with 1 gig rom.
If you install HSPL on your phone, and then only flash over USB, the very worst that will happen (from a software point of view) is that the phone stops at a grey screen, and/or only boots into bootloader, so you boot into bootloader, you flash something else, and it's fixed.
The T Mo UK stock rom is available to download as backup, (as is o2 and voda for anyone looking) in the 'LEO official roms' thread in rom development, first post, first link, first folder (1.43)
At any time, you can flash that rom from sd card (look it up if you need to) and restore everything, spl, radio and rom, , to factory settings.
In all honesty, so long as you are careful, methodical, don't pull out USB cables halfway through, laptop battery dies, etc , then you are more likely to get bricked from some freak incident, like , umm, battery dieing, heh.
Fear not! be smart, be careful, try to understand what you are doing and why at each step, read up on what an spl is, and the job is , as they say, sorted.

Hi samsamuel,
Sorry to msg you like this.
i have purchased a T mobile HTC HD2 which came with the stock 1.43 ROM.
I want to put 1.66 on but don't know how.
I've read the forum and looked on youtube but confused.
Do you have an idiots guide?... i really am an idiot when it comes to stuff like this!
I have downloaded HSPL2 file.
I have downloaded the back up 1.43 Stock Rom
Do i need to download the 1.66 ROM now and how do i update?
please excuse my ignorance and i am happy to donate if you can help.
Kind regards

hi
I have got a bricked HTC ELF with a tri-colour screen.(red, green and blue). I did try matty.exe and found that cid is locked. g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = FF
I dont have the original firmaware backed up. and could not find anywhere on this site and internet.
device id: ELF010050
cid: HTC E11
IPL 1.17.002
SPL: 1.17.0000
Is there any way to find the original rom or is there any way to unlock the cid and then just put any rom on it? I dont have the working pda or wm device to do goldcard method. I know there is way to do the goldcard method without the WM device but then I need a desktop or laptop with a PCI or internal cardreader installed whereas I have got a usb card reader.
can usb card reader do the goldcard method without the wm device?
any suggestion will be appreciated since it has been almost 3 years for me to get my device back to life.
regards
plz suggest.
regards
Hi mate,
All info you need is in the stickies and /or using search function. You need to unlock cid and flash custom rom. BTW tri-colour screen is called Bootloader.
Ps: there was no reason to open a new thread for that ...
hi
thanx for the reply
I have been reading the stickies but could not find
the specific soultion for my problem. can u send me a link or step by step instruction?
regards
Moved to general as this does not belong in development.
There's no need for a step by step guide, all the information is in the wiki or stickies.
hi
I have runout of options and tried almost all. still no success. I was asked to
read stickies which I did but still no use.
no one seems to be answering the question. haha
anyway I have not given up hope.
regards
Yea!! That's the spirit
I can answer to the card reader: as far as I know it has to be an on board reader, otherwise it masks/hides something with the cardid.
hi
hmmm. so that means cardreader option has gone too. haha.
anyway thanx for letting me know that.
so the only option left for me is too wait for someone to send the original
rom so that I can download it and put on my HTC P3450.
regard
I wouldnt hand around for too long waiting for someone to upload the stock firmware, it may never happened to be honest.
Do you know the original operator for the phone? It is possible, at a push, that it may be lurking on a website still, just hard to find. That could possibly yeild a result, hopefully.
If you post, I may have a look - but again, I can't promise anything!

What's the damage if he tries all the roms, one after the other ? If there's none, gogagogi might get lucky
His phone is still CID locked. I guess it could potentially be a brick. I think, that or it won't let you flash the rom at all. I forget which - been a while!
gogagogi: Have you tried seeing if you can flash ipl/spl from SD card - never been in the position you're in so just curious.
Hi
yes it is cid locked. I did try to flash few stock roms which I thought similar to the rom I have got
on my device through usb data cable but no luck. after 2% or 3% is says invalid vendor ID. then I tried through micro sd card but same result.
then I tried unbricker rom through usb and micro sd card but same result.
even I tried to change the vendor id through a softerare called xvi32. that is
a hex reader. open the .nbh file and change the vendor id but the result was no good. it said " the file or image has been corrupted"
and I never tried to flash ipl and spl.
regards
can you give the IPL/USPL a go to see what happens? (its a link to it for you)
Also, whats was your opertor, not sure if i missed it.
hi
when I bought it, it was on T-mobile. but it was sim free. thanx for the link.
I will have a look.
regards
t-mobile uk sorry or something else?
hi
it was on T-mobile NL.(netherlands).
I did have a look at the link u sent it to me.
after reading it, I found out that Microsoft ActiveSYnc has to be green first.(connected).
whereas it can not be connected, if the device is stuck on bootloader so this option has gone too.
the only option so far is, either I find out the original rom or if I can find out some matty.exe commands which can help me unlock the CID so that I can put any rom.
matty.exe is working fine so far.
so what do u think?
regards
gogagogi:
I don't appreciate the message you have sent to my personal in box to be honest, You're lucky I am replying to you at all!
When in bootloader does it say RUU at the top right? And does it pick up USB connection? Have you tried to flash via SDCARD the IPL/SPL roms?
I have a job, a daughter, and a live out side of XDA. If I do not reply to a thread, it means I am thinking, have missed it by accident, or am simply just too busy. I do not get paid to be here, I am not a moderator, I am just a member like yourself, I do not expect to get private messages hassling me to reply to a thread.
The Elf isnt even my main device. I use a HTC Hero (Android), and have done for quite a long time now. I look in here simply to help out other people who are still using this device.
Thanks, Stu
well it does say ruu text at the right top corner and it does say usb at the bottom.
as I said it does connect through Matty.exe.
well I did not mean to disturb you. I was just wondering cuz u were replying me before and then just stopped.
so mate you just chill.
ignore any previous questions from me.
regards
OKay, as the ruu is there, you should still be able to flash a from that point - I have done this a fair few times.
Have you tried the IPL/SPL yet?
so i flashed my phone with the wrong radio i believe but the strange thing is that my computer recognizes it. the doesnt turn on at all but i here the sound of a device being plugged in when i plug it into winodws. is there a chance its not bricked?
the sound doesn't necessarily indicate much.
what did you do? specifics, please?
can you get into bootloader?
i was trying to flash a stock rom and i guess it didnt work?

RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
i tried that on a hd2 so i could flash hspl3 again and use wp7 on my hd2.
i ended up just sending it in, but if they send it back with no repairs ill try your method... i relly hope they just send me a new one though. i mean... i flashed a stock image to the hd2, so shouldnt they see no hspl and just the stock spl?
again, more details are needed.
like what type of hd2 do you have? if it is a us tmo brand, i believe it is bricked (as you flashed a .51 radio.)
if you flashed your stock rom from your sd card, hspl is removed. if you flashed over usb, and did not uninstall hspl, hspl is still there.
what i don't get is if you can flash a rom, why are you saying it is bricked? no offense, but each post seems to change the story (first it was a rom, the a radio, now you are flashing roms but sending the phone in, still don't know if you can get into booloader, but now you sent the phone in or is it in your possession???) and i am not following what you did, where you started or what is going on. maybe i am totally missing what you are saying (which is possible)...hope someone can help you.
i have the 1024 us tmous hd2. i tried to flash to a stock rom, forget i said radio. i tried to flash the .51 which i did not know would brick my phone, so i played dumb with htc and sent it in to get repaired. if they dont repair it i am kinda SOL because i flashed using usb and they will see it has HSPL. sorry, do i need to include anything else? i am just kinda a noob... sorry.
i swear i posted a response. hmm.
thank you for the details. your assessment of the situation is spot on; unfortunately your phone is indeed bricked. and likely htc will not know about hspl...or so i have heard from others.
curious, why did you send it to htc? did tmobile reject it? if not, and htc doesn't give you a new one, try getting it to tmobile (under warranty)- worked for me when the phone stopped working for unknown reason. good luck.
possible to make it back to work...?

I have tmo version, Couple months ago i was trying to flash a office rom, which is i don't remember which one, but i really sure it was a HTC Office Rom., I let the phone do it thing while flashing, but after the flashing the screen go off and didn't back on working anymore, I still have the bricked phone though, and i was wondering if any possible method apply to the above problem?
