Hello all,
I'm not sure but i think my blackstone is on its last legs.
It all started after i flashed to Dutty's last rom the r15 one. Did the usual uspl and eveything went to plan. Then about a week ago the phone frooze, i could'nt get it to reset so had to take the battery out (no biggy). Then tried turning it back on, and it just frooze again right at the windows start-up screen. So did a hard reset and the phone seemed very slow and jumpy.
Then i thought maybe the download of dutty's rom wasn't the best. So today i had planned to install a different rom and see if it was just a bad download or sumthing. And heres the big problem, i can't get the bootloader to connect to my pc.
And what seems strange is that when i enter the bootloader it flashes up with the re/green/blue/white screen andt ehn it shows a grey screen with "loading......." for about 10 seconds then comes back the normal bootloading screen. As usual serial pops up at the bottom, but when connected to my pc it won't show USB!!
I have win7 64, but i have set it up so i can flash using USPL as thats how i got dutty's R15 rom on there.
Any help would be great and hopfully i can get this sorted swn as i love my hd.
p.s
i've spent the past 2 hours searching here and havent found anyone with the same problem.
Thanks
Antony
if you could update from the sd card that would solve some of your problems.but i realy do not know if it is working if you do not have HSPL.
maybe you can find some info on the forums about updating via sd card without HSPL.
or you could try to connect to a computer with other operating system than windows 7.
i am now installing the stock rom.
hopefully then i wil be able to install a cooked rom again.

Thanks for the help,
I will see what the outcome is from the stock rom. And if i can't get it working again with win7 then i'll have to set up my mini pc (made a pc inside an old nintendo SNES) as thats got xp running
thanks once again
just for my curiosity what method are you using to flash a stock rom if you cannot connect to computer through usb?

Well after more hours spent reading thro web page after web page, i stumbled over someone saying that it could be down to the usb cable and i have a few mini usb one, so tried them all, finally got the bootloader to show the usb.
I was then going to install a cooked rom, but thought i'd be the best to go for stock first.
All is working ok now. I'm not sure if it was down to the usb cable totally tho as it was a bit strange the whole grey loading screen on the bootloader which has gone now with the stock rom.
ah well looks like its fixed for now.
Hi all.
I just a got a HD2 today. And the first thing that came in my mind was "Let's go to xdaDev to get a nice custom rom". I downloaded one.
After that I put the usb and try to make it syncronize. And the problem is here : ActiveSync dont reconize the phone. I spent the last 4 hours to google why it shall not work. I tried to unstick option at "Start=>Settings=> Usb to PC" but it dont work. Nothing more after perfoming a hard reset and reinstall ActivSync.
But something is strange : When I go in the bootloader, there is the 3 color screen and the phone Display "Serial" at the bottom of the screen ; and when I start it again with USB plugged, it doesnt display "USB" instead of "Serial" it's just void and if I remove the USB "Serial" is displayed.
Plz help me to make the phone syncronize .
I use Windows XP (no firewall, no antivirus) and an official Orange Rom. My SPL is 1.42.0000. I just hope there is no hardware problem ...
Some news ...
The HD2 isnt detected on 2 other PC (Both Win XP). I managed to syncronize my old Diamond too, and it worked well. Same with a HTC Touch and a Touch Cruise, the 3 ones works.
I also tried to use Bluetooth to get an Activesync connection and this time, it noticed the HD2 but no way to get a synchronization.
Any ideas ?
Try this: goto Settings, Other (Miscellaneous settings), USB to PC, Enable faster data data synchronization. Try to tick and untick the last setting.
It doesnt work . I'm trying to follow a "GoldCard" tutorial to flash to an official HTC rom. Maybe it's Orange operator rom ... But if you have any other suggestion, let me know
I can't believe that it's such a s*** to just connect the last HTC phone to a computer. The tutorial need ActiveSync to get the SD card ID so I will not succes in this way.
Is there another software that can be used instead of ActiveSync ?
Did you flash any rom at all or are you still stock?
If you have flashed already, Have you tried to go back to the default shipped rom using sd card (not goldcard)?
Find the rom that shipped with your device, extract the RUU_Signed.nbh file from it, copy it to your fat32 formatted sd card, rename leoimg.nbh, put card in phone, boot phone with down volume held, hopefully you get the message on the three colour screen saying something like 'press volume up to start' or somesuch.
THis should not only flash the rom, but also fix spl if it has become corruptted(which appart from hardware errors is the only reason i can see that it wouldn't recognise a USB connection)
Make sure it is the correct rom for your phone, though, correct vendor and region id.
I must say if you havent flashed yet it sounds like a hardware fault with teh usb cable/connector
I'm currently running a stock Rom from a french operator nammed "Orange". I haven't flashed anything since ActiveSync just dont want to know anything about my HD2.
Maybe I shall send it back to the seller. That's so frustating ...
If i dont find a way to solve this problem until the end of the day, I will return the phone.
Anyway thx for trying to help me
To me either the cable or the phone is faulty. Try another cable if you have one, if not just have the phone exchanged.

Ah in that case then i'd seriously consider taking it back /sending it back. Especially if you have tried more than one computer, sounds to me like faulty cable or USB socket.

You must be right. I tried everything and I never had so much pain with my others HTC to get syncronization
I had the same problem not beeing able to connect to the internet via computer. After playing with the activesync settings on the Computer -> conection settings-> ticking on and off some of the boxes->ok, it worked again.
I have connected to three of these phones ( 2 french 1 english) and no problem whatsoever, everything happens without needing to touch any of the settings...is your pc even recognising that something is being plugged in on the USB?
Have you installed the latest version of activesync?
If you have done all the obvious things and it still does not work, the phone or the cable is defective...It should connect straight out of the box with a standard, un changed version of activesync.
Send it back!
My Phone does not see USB connection for Activesync but is does see it to charge. Also my PC doesn't see my Phone via the USB
What do I need to do to establish a active sync USB connection
It will connect via blue tooth - but I need the connection back.
Can anyone Help please
P.S. I have used serveral Roms on my device.
try to put ure phone in restore or boot screen mode then try to plug it in , coz it happened to me as well , as i m typing now....
That doesn't work.
I have installed a couple of roms since this issue became an issue but i installed them via the microsD.
Any Other Ideas?
check usb settings
Are you able to connect usb, and see the contents of mirco sd card
sometimes the "usb to pc" setup may be set to disk content instead of activesync
check : settings/system/usb to pc
Ive had this problem a little over a month now, couldnt find a solution neither. For me an error comes up saying "device not recognised" (i opened up the device, checked for any hardware f ups, couldnt find any.. Although it cant be software either coz if flashed so many times after it with the same problem.. Really weird. If you find a solution, id love to know it to.
Regards
Is there way we can raise this so more people can see this issue.
I have install roms before the issue and since it happened I have done via the MicrosSD.
There must be a way of sorting this
Will a task 29 help?

you could try a task 29 or install a original rom to see if the problem go away

Sorry I cannot connect to my PC in any way other than bluetooth or MicrosSD so I cannot use Task 29.
I'll try a stock rom.
Does anyone know where to find the latest stock ROM from orange UK
Thanks for the Advice skodann
MOD EDIT - Moved to General discussion as not related to rom development
Task 29 cannot be done because of the USB port not funtioning.. and flashinga stock rom didnt work, maybe it needs to be done by USB?
BTW, should say this before, once you flash stock, you cant go back to HSPL as HSPL can not be flashed without USB..

please try a hard reset, that should help solve the problems.
i doubt if this is anything to do with ROM you flashed (since you have flashed successfully, as your phone does boot.
if none of this works please post.
a hard reset should help you though.

i see, error222.
please make sure that your USB cable is working.
pleasemake sure your computer has active sync 4.5 installed ( if windows XP)
or the latest WMDC (if vista or win7 )
also regarding the memory card, are u sure the card is fine ?
please put it another device/card reader and check, try formatting it and see if ur elf detects it.
ROMs usually don't have anything to do with memory drivers.
what HSPL/USPL did u flash ?

hey chris... glad to see you here... but unfortunately i tried both... different ports and different cables.... the problem still remains... and the worse part is that the current rom im using its not working on my cell at all... cell freezes more than randomly and doesnt even restart. i have to take the battery out wait 10 secs than reinsert to start it again and it keeps messing up my clock time to plus 1 hour even though daylight saving is turned off in this rom
EDIT: Fixed the problem...somehow my htc driver on windows 7 had gotten corrupt... deleted it and reinstalled the drivers and its working fine now... thanks alot for the help CHRIS
