[Q] Update Hspl and radio of Htc Leo with ubuntu - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hye everyone.
I'd like to install android on my leo, but i've got a computer under Ubuntu 10.04, and no windows. and before, i've to install HSPL and Update my radio Rom which is currently 2.04.50.22_2 with a rom version 1.43.73.1, and a 1.42.000 SPL.
i tried a lot a things in order to synchronise my HTC with Ubuntu, but no result. Is there a way to go ?

I'm no expert on the matter but I'd have a stab at maybe running a virtual machine if possible? Not sure if any available in ubuntu just know from windows I've ran several different OS's 'virtually' including xp and leopard

Well, I suppose you could always try wine, but I'd be wary of doing it that way, incase it crashes mid update.

tried both. have a virtual XP under mac os X but HSPL doesn't want to upgrade. and wine offer no sync with activsync.

I had no choice : i install the hspl with a xp machine !

Big problema, cannot update...help

hi to everyone,
about a year ago, i patched thr spl...now is 2.13.0000. Yesterday i tried to install to my imate jamin (s200) the new qtek s200 italian rom. The process start successfully and cheked the version. When the phone reboot itself and shows the bootscreen, he program said that there was error 260 and cannot continue; on the phone screen reamin the boot section. When i try to rebbot, it works, but in this way i cannot update my phone. How i can solve this??
i use windows vista and windows mobile device center 1.0 version; also, i used on innotek virtual machine, windows xp with activesync 4.5I would like to inform you, if you can help, theat about a month ago i sent my phone to the assistence because the audio didn't work (is it possible that the assistence did something that block the update??
thanks and please help!!
on the bootscreen, compares RUU on the right-up side,ipl 2.13,spl 2.13 and (all writes are in the red section) and usb on the left-bottom side (on white background)! that's all, i think i've said everything...please HELP!!!
THE PROBLEM IS THAT PROPHET CANNOT CONNECT AT USB IN BOOTLOADER
i've tried, also, to use camera + softreset and when reboot the writes RUU disappear, but still not recognize on usb when in bootloader.
Someone can solve this problem? please....
your problem is vista!
use native windows xp and not VMWare or some Virtual Computer!
have the same strange errors if i flash with vista.
how you have flash your ipl to 2.13??
i used the pdamobiz...i think my ipl was 2.15.0000, and after downgrade, it becomes 2.13.0000. Sound strange? So, do you think the problem is vista and the VM? but i read in this forum that lots of people flash hos phone using xp on virtual machine....but you mean that in vista if you plug the phone (botloader) in to computer, windows doesn't recognize it?
i havent test "win xp vm" on a "vista host". my work laptop has vista and i cant update any rom/firmware. vmware use the host system and his driver to route the usb device. possible the usb-subsystem in vista is changed to much ;-)
test it ... if work ... ok ... we can debug it!
SOLVED
SOLVED! I flashed the prophet on "real" xp. Now my spl changed to 2.20.000 and ipl remain at 2.13.0000. I have another question: if i flashthe phone with one rom of wm6 (which is better?or which is the rom with less bugs?), can i reflash with a wm5 rom without problem?
thanks in advance and thanks for your advice!!

[Q]Dual Boot ON HTC HD

Hi everybody,i'm juste wondering if i it's possible to run 2 OS on the Blackstone as a dual boot.
Actually i'm running a 6.1 french rom,and i want to install the Sunrise 1.4 which is a 6.5 ROm too,by having the possibilty to choose one of the 2 on boot!
thnx
easy answer.no!
That's actually not entirely true. I have seen a number of launchers that launch a Linux OS on the device (and Android) from within Windows Mobile. A soft reset is needed to get back to WM but still.
Now where Konidair is probably correct is that I haven't seen any such launcher for WM ROMs - only non-WM apps.
If you think, dual boot like pc, NO! Or write your bootloader You can run linux distros via haret app

Htc hd touch no usb

Hello my friends. I have looked on all threads and cannot solve this problem.
I have a Blackstone which has norwegian rom installed. I wish to change to english rom as i speak or read no norwegian. As my pc's (3) will not recognise this device how can i load a new rom?
I have used several cables , used three computers, active sync windows xp pro sp3 & wmdc on windows 7. Non of the pc's reognise device as either a hard drive or a mobile device. Have two other htc devices (kaiser and touch 2) and these sync to my pc's fine and wmdc downloads appropriate drivers etc.
Bootloader reads
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.000
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
after successfully installing new updated norwegian rom from htc site by putting nbh file on sd card after renaming BLACIMG.nbh and putting in bootloader (pwr & vol dwn).
So I can load new norgi rom but no english rom by doing same and using sd card. Can't load hspl or uspl or any sspl unless I am doing some thing wrong?
I can load manual sspl on device and run from phone but when in bootloader cannot still load rom by usb or by putting nbh from rom on sd card.
Could anybody please give me some advice and preferably an idiots step by step guide on how to do.
Remember I have no HTC Touch Hd to USB connection.
When in bootloader device reads serial at the bottom. in white section of tricolour.
Please could I utilise all the great brains on this site and come up with a solution..
I have little hair left to pull out
Kind Regards

Confused, T-Mobile UK - HTC HD2 - advice choosing a ROM Required please

Hi Guys,
Got a new htc hd2 from tmobile in the uk, got last years september rom on it and found that it had an old rom on it, needs upgrading and wanting to put a updated rom, but wanted a rom that had all the bells and whistles,
currently it keeps freezin when sending txts an randomly crashes, had a couple of them, an thought it was phone til i realised all software related an needs seriously updating, but thought would go the whole hog then not do it for a while lol
Never done this before and a bit of a noob, have been reading through the stickys, but still abit unsure
Wasnt sure wether i would be able to put windows 7 or android on it, so if need be will stick to just winmo 6.5 but wanted a rom that gave me some decent apps with it, like those power/cooked roms, but didnt know what to go for, what would be best
never installed apps before, apart from through windows marketplace,
So hints tips an a great step by step noobie guide would be great,
Cheers for reading

Rom!! ???
I'm not being rude, but you really need to search forum. There are lots of threads about just what you are needing. WM7 is not available,android,they are working on, no idea when. Give search a try. lots of info,,,,
I did search the forums, i have been searching, hence how i obtained the info,
i know there are a lot of different cooked roms, but nothing that can help me differentiate which to choose from,
tbh ALL I want on the rom is probably like an e-reader and a torch, anything else is a bonus lol,
but i cant seem to locate something that says this is the one that wont cause me any issues, i am tempted just to grab the stock rom off htc, as that should resolve most of the issues with the phone

thats probably your best bet until you are more comfortable with flashing.
Grab the 1.72 and go with customising that.

It will connect to usb while the phone is running, but as soon as it drops to bootloader the usb connection will not get passed back to xp.
you will not get hspl to work in a virtual environment or bootcamp. (or so i hear, i dont have a mac, i just read a lot )
You 'may' get flashing to work from bootcamp, but deff not hspl.
You will need to use a windows machine to instal hspl.

I resisted using a non "stock" ROM for a while, but I eventually got fed up with even the latest version that was released for O2 (1.72).
Yesterday I installed the Atermis v14 ROM, which I have to say stands head and shoulders above the standard release ROMs.
I chose it for two reasons, after looking on the "HTC_Leo/ROMs" page on the wiki attached to the site. First was that it was described as "Combines the latest WM 6.5.5 version with latest Manila 2.5.2012 (Leo 2.11) for HD2.This ROM Family is stable , fast and very close to stock ROM "Philosophy"." Second because it was first on the list
I found it really easy to install, using SSPL; you just put the downloaded ROM image and SSPL exe into a folder, connect your phone via USB with ActiveSync of Device Centre, and run the exe on your PC. There are pretty simple step by step instructions on both the SSPL and Atermis pages.
After installing Atermis I also installed S2U2 via a cab file, which gives me a different un/lock screen; again there's easy instructions, though you do have to play around with the S2U2 config app to get the behaviour as you might want (e.g. background image, time format, caller display). All straight forward though as you install the cab, then it's available via the start menu/app list. I like it because it's more responsive on wake up and allows direct access to messages, etc on unlock.
Unfortunately it seems all the ROM flashing apps are windows based (it's a windows phone after all...), so I doubt you'd have fun trying to flash a ROM with a mac. Probably simpler all round to borrow a friends PC for 10 mins!
If you are going to flash a new rom though, it's definitely worth backing up your contacts and messages, etc. Microsoft myPhone works for me, and comes pre-installed.

[Q] [SOLVED] Error happen! in MAGLDR I cant flash nand roms

Same problem, but I've give him some advice. It worked for me, but not him. It's worth a try though.
Ok, thanks! that solved it.
I had that thread open in a new tab. i posted my thread at the same time you posted to disable it in active sync not task manager. sorry about the extra thread.
But i did try to disable active sync in the task manager.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just had to disable usb connections in active sync.
open up active sync,
click on file,
connections,
uncheck the box that says allow usb connections. no WM needed. at least not for me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That should realy be in the MAGLDR thread. for us xp users.
Also, the program for cracking the windows live requires Vista or W7.
And to install zune you need at least sp3 on xp. i guess im a little out of date.
Thanks again.
