Hey there, i have just installed several roms for andriod on my HD2, however when i run these i get a black screen and the phone goes no further.. thes plenty of storage space on the SD Card, Is updating my radio safe & does it matter what network im on?
My current radio version is 2.07.51.22_2 Im on the Virgin network and i was wondering what would be the best update for my phones radio?
Regards Steve
Your problem is your radio it needs to end in .50 not .51 see

I had a 2.09 radio and changed to 2.14.50. After that change, all works fine.

i would really appreciate it if someone could post the information on which radios are compatible with my Tmobile hd2 phone. iv looked in the hd2 rom development forum at the radio thread but theres alote of info to take in all at once and to understand for someone just starting off. thanks in advance.
if it has a .50. in the version, eg 2.08.50. then its fine for tmous . EDIT - except 2.04.50 and 2.05.50 they will also kill tmous, just like a ,,51,, radio.
if it has .51. in the version eg 2.09.51. the phone will die.it won't power on at all.
also stay away from any version lower than 2.07.50.

since you have spl 1.42 then you must have a regular hd2, so you can flash any rom any radio. there are perhaps a half dozen android roms that say 'tmous only' but this is purely because of the size, nothing to do with compatibility.
since you want to flash android (and so magldr) you will need 2.08.hspl (get hspl4 for that) and also a radio version 2.10.50 or higher before you can flash magldfr or android.
i'm using 2.15 and it's given me the best battery consumption ever since. running android and no lags or freezes as well.
What if i brick my mobile? what are the things i may not do to not to brick my mobile? and what if anything goes wrong while updating the HSPL and RADIO ? and do i have to update the rom? And i dont want to remove my Windows, i just want to run the android from the sd card.
Hello,
my girlfried is using my old HD2 with WP7... works very good... except the reception is very bad. Perhaps the used radio rom is not optimised for her network (she uses an other network than i have used). So I would like to test another radio rom.
Does WP7 has it's own radio-rom that is not updateabled seperatly, or is there anyway to flash one of the ordinary radio roms, after the phone was flashed with magldr?
thank for your help

Yes its possible to change the radio, wen the phone starts, before the magldr screen keep the volume up button pressed n it will load into the tricolor screen.
U can change the radio the same way u flash radios in wm6.5. I would recomend radio 2.12 or 2.15, i use 2.12 and i don't seem 2 have any reception issues even tho I live in an area where signal strength is not very good, and i also get very good battery life from it.
(Btw this thread should b in the Q&A forum!)
EDIT: U press the volume DOWN button while starting, NOT up button! (I just haven't done it for so long that I forgot! Sorry!)
Correct above and i will move this to the Q&A forum
I use 2.15 radio which is very good
ok so yesterday i decided to reflash my phone with dft's leo70 rom Os version: 7.0.7004.0
my phone is an australian telstra handset.
since i put wp7 on it 3g doesnt work, cannot use cellular data
cannot unlock with chevron tool. comes up with eroors saying phone is not connected and zune isnt running when both are working fine
not having cellular data working and not being able to sideload apps is kinda a dealbreaker for me.
if there is a fix at all please help me or im gunna have to go back to winmo 6.5
radio version is: 2.14.50.04
magldr 1.12
anymore info required just ask me
my computer is running win7
Why did you pick the oldest WP7 ROM out on this planet?? Take a new one. They are unlocked out of the box and include a lot of fixes and updates.
Use 2.15 RadioROM how mentioned in every ROM thread!
Use Magldr 1.13 and not the old one.
Maybe this all will even fix your problems.
to update the radio rom, do i have to roll back to winmo 6.5? noob question i know :S
No,
You dont have to rollback to wm6.5 to install a different radio.
i have the 2.15 radio rom how do i update it?
Hi, I have been using Android basically since day one when I got this phone. I have been experiencing random restarts lately and think it could be a hardware issue. I already tried different Android ROMS and also tried using it from a clean state (no extra apps installed)...so it comes down to possible hardware/motherboard issue. I want to send it back to HTC for a replacement.
I ran HSPL3 and it's back to 2.10.0000 SPL now. I found an update for the T-Mobile US (1024) stock rom (3.14.531). I restored it back and everything looks ok now. The only thing I'm worried about is the radio version. I remember putting 2.15.50.14 on it and still see it. From what I see here, the radio should be 2.14.50.04 for this latest update.
My main question (just FYI for my knowledge) is shouldn't restoring the T-Mobile software restore the radio version also? It looks like I'll just have to flash the radio back myself.
The original specs I had were:
R 2.10.50.26
G 15.39.50.07U
D 2.13.90693 8G
I guess I don't need to worry about the 2nd and 3rd one right? Forgot exactly what they meant (read it somewhere) but the radio is what worries me.
Thanks.
No the radio will not change by replacing the rom, you need to choose the radio of your choice and flash it to the phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
So should I flash the original radio back (2.10.50.26)? I read in one of the posts here that for the 3.14.531 ROM, it should have the 2.14.50.04 radio.
Haven't ran into any random restarts yet after I restored it back to the Windows Mobile ROM. Might have to go back to square one if it doesn't happen in Windows but only in Android.
Thanks.
You should flash Radio 2.15.50.14 and HSPL2.08 for your phone,in order to run android.Since,you have flashed your stock ROM,i think its best you start fresh from the beginning.Start with HSPL,then radio. Have you tried both SD and NAND builds? and did you use MAGLDR?. If you still experience boot cycles, you might want to try TASK 29. If you are launching Android from WM, you should want to flash a custom WM ROM that works well with Android.

Yes it sounds like you may have a hardware issue seeing as you have tried different Android NAND ROMs.
If you still see the 2.15.50.14 radio then it is still installed on your HD2. The question though is did the radio version with the stock ROM get upgraded to the 2.15.50.14 version from the 2.14.50.04 version.
To answer your question yes the radio version does get flashed when you flash a official stock ROM via RUU. The radio version that the ROM contains is the version that gets flased.
Thanks for providing the original specs on your HD2 as this lets people know what your original stock ROM was and the original radio and base band versions wee too. The R is the radio version, the G is your Base Band version, and the D is the ROM version.

Not true, if you flash a official stock Windows Mobile ROM via RUU (USB) it will change the radio version to the radio version included in the ROM. This is why TMOUS HD2s get bricked when you flash them with a international ROM. The radio versions in the international ROMs are not compatible with the TMOUS HD2.

I would flash the radio version that is known to be the radio version included with the stock ROM. HTC will be looking for two things basically. One if the radio, base band, and ROM versions all match up, and two if you have SPL on the device and not HSPL. If either of these do not pass HTC will deny your claim.

I agree with member kawshigan, you should check and see if HSPL was removed and replaced with SPL by the stock ROM flash, check the bootloader screen to see if you still have it. If you did it via RUU than it did not. But if you flashed it via SD card then it did remove HSPL. Either way you have to have HSPL flashed to you HD2 to flash MAGLDR or cLK, you also have to have it to run a TASK 29. Once you are sure you have HSPL on your HD2 you I suggest youi run a Task 29, next flash the 2.15.50.14 radio, then flash MAGLDR or cLK (wich ever one you want to use), then flash Clockwork Mod Recovery, and then use Clockwork Mod Recovery to flash your ROM via .zip file on your SD card.
Hello, Sorry if this message is posted in the wrong area, but this is my first post, i am a noob PLEASE HELP!
I have an unlocked Telstra branded HTC HD2 T9193 running the stock wm6.5
ROM and the stock RADIO.
OS Version 5.2.2169 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila Version 2.5.20121431.1
ROM Version 1.72.841.0 (82124) WWE
Radio Version 2.07.51.22_2
Protocol Version 15.32.50.07U
I want to run the NexusHD2 android build from my SD card but i have tried and it just sits at the linux boot code screen forever. I have looked on XDA developers and have found that i have to install HSPL3 and then flash the 2.15.50.14 RADIO ROM. Is this true? is there any other way to boot android without re flashing? I love my HD2 and am scared i will brick it? How can i ensure that i do not brick it (if i have to re flash a RADIO).

only tmous needs to be careful, , the radio brick you heard about doesn't affect you. (Well, there's always a slim chance with any flashing, but the infamous 'i flashed this radio/stock rom and now it wont turn on' brick doesnt affect your phone.)

So with TMOS devices you cannot flash a xx.xx.51.xx RADIO and have to flash a xx.xx.50.xx RADIO, but with a European or Australian device you can flash a xx.xx.50.xx RADIO, such as 2.15.50.14?
Yep, tmous 2.06.50 or higher,, must be x.xx.50
Regular+telstra - any radio, ..50.. or ..51.., will flash, however for compatibility with various things, (unlocking ram, using nand android, magldr) use high numbered ..50.. radios, 2.11.50 up to 2.15.50

Ok thanks, i have one more question. Can i use my stock ROM with the new 2.15.50.14 RADIO, or will windows crash, and make me have to install a custom ROM?
It will be fine.
