flash back to winmo

Hello,
after flashing a nand rom to my HD2 it randomly hang, and after a while it didn't boot anymore. So I flashed (using usb) back to winmo stock rom. Now it still randomly hangs and has booting problems. I'd like to uninstall HSPL and start al over again but i can't install it via SD card. Tried 16gb and 2gb card. Renamed to leoimg.nbh, I get te colour screen but it doesn't do anything but USB or Serial.
Any help
thanks!

There is plenty of guides on all of this.
You can also do a task 29.
a) click search
b) type "task"
c) choose "titles only" in drop down menu.
d) read.

Place the leoimg.nbh on sd
hold down volume down and then power on button.
when u see the tri color spl screen, release the power button but keep holding the volume down button till you see the grey screen.
It will completely flash your mobile and restore the SPL.

I used Task 29, after that tried to install via SD, did not work, so i tried to via usb 3.14 stock rom. Worked, it boots again but can't get spl on it.
how to get 3.03.000 back on the phone?

After putting it to sleep, it wakes up, green screen and hangs....any solutions?

[Q] hd2 not booting and usb socket broken

Hi
My HD2 is not booting up. It just gets into a loop showing the materializing/de-materializing android symbol.
I have done both soft and hard resets, but cannot get it to boot. My other problem is that the USB socket is broken so I cannot connect it to a PC.
I am using an external battery charger to charge the battery and then having to insert the battery back into the HD2. The booting problem started when the battery ran out of power overnight while in the phone.
I have android aMAGDLR V1.13 build feb 1 2011 by Cotulla 2011. On the hard reset RGB screen it displays
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0X30
Then in the bottom white stripe it displays the word 'Serial'.
How can I get my phone to boot and then without the USB connection put the original windows 6.5 ROM back on so I can send it back to T mobile for repair as its still under warranty?
The other option is how can any trace of the android rom be wiped from the HD2 so I can send it for repair? I would just have to act stupid and blame the broken USB for wiping any ROM LOL.
I hope somone can help.

To return your phone to stock (including spl) -
1. Format your SD card using the format tool ON YOUR PHONE.
2. Download the correct firmware from your device from HTC official website
3. Open the .exe with winzip/winrar/7zip
4. Extract the RUU_Signed.nbh file
5. Rename the RUU_Signed.nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh (apparently caps is required)
6. Copy LEOIMG.nbh to the root of your SD card
7. Insert SD card into phone.
8. Boot into tri-colour bootloader (Hold vol down, tap power button but continue to hold vol down)
9. Release vol down when you see 'Searching...' on screen.
Your phone should boot to bootloader, notice theres a leoimg.nbh file on your SD card and flash the stock firmware you got from HTC. All data will be lost, as well as HSPL. You can then send your phone back for repair.
If this works for you please press the thanks button, its what keeps me lurking in the forums trying to help when I can =]

Thanks for the reply jwchips.
I cannot do step 1 as the phone will not boot so I cannot format the sd card using the phone.
I have the following original firmware from my phone- RUU_Leo_S_TMO_UK_3.14.110.1_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship
Do I rename this file to 'LEOIMG.nbh' ?
How do I save this to ' root of my SD card' as apposed to copy and pasting into my sd card?
What if in step 9 'searching' does not appear? As in RGB so far nothing happens. I'm charging the battery and when fully charged will follow you instructions and hopefully I can save my phone and send it off for repair.

Can you boot to MAGLDR? Is there a format SD option in there? I'm a clk user so I'm not 100% sure what options MAGLDR has. If you cannot format via your phone try to format via windows (try fat32 first, if it fails to flash try fat. Theres conflicting arguements as to which one works, but you can't cause damage by formatting to the wrong type, the flash will simply fail at the end).
The RUU_Leo_S_blahblah sounds like the install file you downloaded from the htc website. Rename it from .exe to .zip, open with winzip/winrar/7zip and look for RUU_Signed.nbh. Rename that file to LEOIMG.nbh.
The root of your sd card means not in any folder. So sdcard/LEOIMG.nbh is ok, sdcard/firmware/LEOIMG.nbh is not.
If nothing happens... nothing happens. Worst case scenario is you've wasted some time. The only time where things can go wrong is when you are actually flashing the firmware, and flashing via sd card is the safest way to go (no accidently pulling out cables/powercuts etc).
You won't see 'Searching...' unless the bootloader has found the LOEIMG.nbh file. As you don't have it on your SD card yet, you won't see it
P.S. Theres a thanks button now you know

jwchips, its updating at the momment. Yippeee. Will keep you updated.

jwchips, it has successfully updated. The screen shows the following:-
LEOIMG.nbh - OK
RADIO_V2 - OK
RCUST - OK
BOOTLOADER - OK
SPLASH1 - OK
OS - OK
CONFIGDATA --OK
RUU_WALLPAPER1 - OK
RUU_WALLPAPER2 - OK
Update Complete
UPDATE SUCCESS
Thank you jwchips. I've got the phone working with the original (rubbish)winmo 6.5 installed. Now I will be taking it to the nearest T Mobile shop so it can be sent to be repaired before my warranty runs out. Then I will be getting either the HTC Titan or and most likely the Samsung Note.

Glad to hear everything went okay!

[Q] Bricked HD2?

The HD2 Leo512mb i have had to be placed in such a way so the pins on the usb connector had connection to the main board, and data no longer worked. So I opened up the phone and found out that the usb connector was impossible to solder back on, so in that case I would have to order a new one.. Instead, i soldered the power from a usb cable directly to the main board on the phone and put it back together..
Booting up, it stops at the android logo...
If i try to hold down the power button to install a new rom in recovery from a zipfile, this message comes up
ANDROID LOAD at 11800000
from MicroSD
Load zImage
K: /zImage
ssSD kernel open failed
It flashes showing that screen for 1,5s and the recovery boot screen for 0,5sekond
I put the initrd-latest.gz downloaded from XDAndroid initramfs, renamed to initrd.gz to the root of the sdcard, and the last line of the loading changed to ''SD kernel open failed'' (no ss first)
I have aMAGLDR V1.13, Build Feb 1 2011 installed, and some Nandroid Cyanogenmodrom installed before it crashed. Doublechecked that everything is properly connected back again..
Is there anything to do with this, a file i could put into the SD-card? Heres a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CChE_-xbXA0
I have a Galaxy SII, but the HD2 would be great to have as a backup phone!

.......................

How about booting into the tricolor boot screen (Vol down + Power) and loading a stock T-Mobile Winmo rom? That will pretty much take out any SD card issues or Android related issues. If the rom flashes and the phone boots up, then there is something else going on.
But am I reading this right? Your usb connector is messed up? In that case, still try loading a stock winmo rom from a freshly formatted sd card. Instructions for doing that are easily found by search.

Correct! So i only have the charging part, and that makes flashing WinMo with the tricolor boot screen hard..
I think I remember how to install a rom to the sd card, but would that load up automatically, if its now automatically tries to load the kernel for the Nand installed androidrom?

Here's a video that explains a bit better whats happening

Here are the instructions for how to flash a standard winmo rom using the SD card from this thread. Download the stock rom for your phone, and give it a try.
Flashing Via MicroSD Card
NOTE (PLEASE READ): If you flash a Stock Rom via microSD Card then it will overwrite your HardSPL with a stock SPL included in the nbh file. This does not apply to custom roms as they do not include an SPL. BE CAREFUL!!
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
2. Download your prefered Rom from the LEO Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your PC
3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh
4. Copy the LEOIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card
5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone
6. Reset the device while pressing the volume down button to enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top
7. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update
8. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device.

[Q] HTC Surround HTC splash loop

Hello, new guy here in need of some help. I've searched and tried every solution I can find, with no luck. My AT&T Surround is stuck in the HTC splash screen loop, and nothing I have found seems to work. I was using it the other day, and it shut off, and this is all I get from it now. I have tried a hard reset, removing the SD and SIM cards, different SD cards, all with no luck. I can get it into the bootloader screen, and It recognizes all of the SD cards that I have tried, but no other devices recognize them now. My bootloader screen reads as follows :
PD26100 SS-BC (4K)
SPL-4.5.2250.0(129685) MNG
MicroP(LED) 0x09
TOUCH C1(v62)
SD SANDISK 3781MB
Partition Info-v211v413
USB
When I try flashing it with a new ROM using the ROMUPDATERUTILITY, The utility doesnt report what version the phone has on it, but recognizes the phone, and the new rom, and attempts to flash. It will sit on 0% and the phone screen will go to the progress bar and read 0% for about 10 minutes and time out with an error 262.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any help guys!

HTC HD2 Stuck on HTC screen after trying to install MAGLDR

Hello, I was just trying to install MAGLDR so I could put Android on my HTC HD2. For some reason, Windows Mobile stopped working on it, so it will stay on the white HTC screen forever. (The phone is not bricked, as when I hold down the volume down button, it will go to the RGB screen that shows SPL info etc.) So, I installed HSPL, (That worked fine), and then tried to install MAGDLR on it. This did not go as smoothly. When I install it with the ROMUpdateUtility.exe (Ran as admin) it does the procedure and says it completed, and the green progress bar on the phone reaches 100, and so does the app on the PC. However, when I try to boot to MAGDLR on the phone after it reboots it, it just goes back to the white HTC screen forever. I tried using the reset hole behind the battery cover, then holding down the pwr button forever, that also did not work. Below is a list of steps I did in total from start to finish.
1. Put the device into the RGB screen on startup
2. Installed HSPL successfully (Said "We hacked it! " on the phone)
3. Rebooted the phone to the RGB screen on startup again
4. Ran ROMUpdateUtility.exe as admin on PC to install MAGDLR
5. That said it was completed successfully
6. Tried going to the MAGDLR on the phone
7. The phone just goes back to the white HTC screen as before
Am I missing something? As I simply can not figure out how to boot to MAGDLR on the phone after it "installs".
