[SOLVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
Hi all,
I kida stcuk at hboot 1.76.0007 after trying to run Singapore official RUU. so stupid of me.
I can't go into recovery mode, whatever button I press, it will go to hboot.
If I flash singapore RUU, I got old version error.
If I use other RUU, same image which is 3.05.xxx , I got ID error.
I copied the roo1.zip and renamed it to SAPPIMG.zip into sd card, but can't go into recovery mode.
and cannot fastboot as there is S-ON.
So anyway to rescue my magiic? mine is 32A
previously I know rules on flashing, but I bought HD2 4 months ago and lost track with magic. so all screw up.
Pls help me. Thanks a lot for your time.
Best,
Thihaz

yup. I tried running different RUU with goldcard in the phone, But what is the connection between goldcard and RUU?
what i can think of is either sd card is not detected or colume key or home key is dead that's why i cannot flash sappimg.zip from sd card.
anymore suggestions?
thanks a lot for your time.
thanks

If I'm not mistaken the RUU pushes the files to your SD card before running the commands to flash them to the phone but I could be way off base. The other possibility besides it not picking up the SD card is that your goldcard is jacked up. You could borrow a friends Android phone and try making another one.

ah I didn't know that. before things screwed up, I got an eng spl 2007 and new radio with a customised rom, i think cyanogen.
My understanding is that at least it should read the files from sd card but it looks like volume key is dead.
let me try with other sd card and see how it goes.
Thanks for your time mate.
Thanks.

Ok, I have tried with 3 cards, 1GB,2GB and 8GB.
1GB and 2GB have been used as a goldcard.
But this time no luck, nothing happened when I pressed
volume down + power
home + power
back + power
It was still going to hboot RUU. I think need to send it to HTC. Sigh!
Any idea or suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have managed to fix the phone!!!!!!!!!!
I should have digged inside xda more before I sent my phone to HTC service centre to pay SGD30.
They said my main board was damaged and needed a replacement with SGD360!!! FCUK!
I straight away said NO!!!. Gimme back my phone.
That's it. Because I digged xda forum and found a very very positive solution.
So I wanted to give it a try, that method is, yes, using Gold card.
Let me tell you how I did it.
My magic is spoilt so that there is no way I can get CID of memory card.
So I followed this instruction using Ubuntu to get CID
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=656798
but somehow I still cannot get the cid.
But Luckily I have HTC HD2, yes I can run android on it (thanks the genius ppl here)
So I formatted my memory card, put android folder as usual and run it.
Voila!! now I got my cid when I run adb command.
and I followed this instruction creating gold card which I have done it a thousand times before -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572683
And used this RUU
RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_3.05.401.3_release_signed_ NoDriver
(I used this RUU, because my data image version is 3.05, I cannot use lower than that, I think you know what I mean)
It fcuking worked. yes. pls excuse my language because I am so happy for my resurrected phone.
And thank you so much for the genius people here and xda.
Now we know that HTC sucks or they just want money!!!
Mod: How can I change that title to put [Solved] in front? or Can you help me change for those who had the same problem as me?
Thanks everyone.
Best,
thihaz
Eyyy i tried to revert it to stock ROM!!
i copyd the downloaded RUU_SIGNED.nbh from the website of htc.com with my serial number and renamed it to leoimg.nbh and then i started boatloader and install it, after like 20% it said '' installation failed'' 2002200 error or something like that.. now imma film it with my desire hd,....
after failure it restarted to boatloader with SPL 3.03.000
i got a LEO from Europe.. WHAT NOW?!
If you downloaded from HTC it should be in an .exe format
Put your phone in bootloader (when the phone is off hold down volume down and press the power button) you should see a tricolor screen. Plug your phone in to the pc run the exe and follow the instructions through.

Or uncompress the .exe file with winzip. You will find the .nbh file inside.

IMma not sure what it said exactly but something with '' BAD PHONE ID'' when i tried to open HSPL2_RUN
Now trying to flash the stock rom from usb it got stuck at 0%..
it says : BAD SPL VERSION!
So im stuck with SPL3.03.0000
Cant flash anything....
so what to do?!
tried to flash stock ROM from htc.com from sd
it says ''Not allow'' 20002
tried to flash it from the usb it gets stuck at 0%
cant flash to SPL 2.08 HSPL because i have spl 3.03 right..?
Let me guess, the microSD Card is a 8GB or greater - it is a known problem.
If you need to flash via the SD Card then go either for a 1, 2 or 4GB one. MAking sure that it is formatted correctly.
Forget all about HSPL right now, as the HTC ROMs or the branded versions all come with ROM, RADIO and SPL.
from your video, your SPL is not showing a model ID in bootloader.
(The top line in bootloader, Eg mine says 'PB81100 SS-BC)'
Ive seen this crop up on a few occasions, where the ID gets corrupted, or like yours vanishes completely.
Problem is now of course that all roms will give bad model ID.
I'm not sure of any fix, however if memory serves i seem to remember someone tweaked a customruu to avoid checking the model ID. (Though i couldn't immediately find it just now, , not that i tried too hard, thats your job )
Not sure if it will help, but i think id try flashing a stock rom with the tweaked RUU, if i could find it.

First of all, nope it was a 2gb, didnt use my 16..
second you're right when i tried to flash it it said '' BAD MODEL ID''

Searched for it..
couldnt find it...

I'll try remember to look tomorrow, but with all the forum changes,,,,, like finding a needle in a big pile of needles.

You are not on HSPL that's why it doesn't work.
heres what i think i was thining about
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=706064
Before hspl3, this workaround allowed people to bypass the model id check for particular model IDs, perhaps a blank ModelIDCheckBypass.txt (since your model ID is blank) file would work?
oops, i forgot you were also stuck on spl 3.03.0000, so even bypassing the model ID, hspl would still fail because it doesn't support spl 3.03.0000.
So, normally, only a correct stock rom (usb or sd) of lower version, ((out because of the mdoel ID) or any other stock rom through goldcard would work, but i'm not sure how goldcard would respond to no model id.
If you can get a CID for an sd card (2gb or smaller ideally), pm me with it and an email address and i can make you a goldcard image.
Gotta be worth a try.
There are several ways to find a CID, if you have another winmo phone you can use for 5 minutes, thats wayyy the easiest way.

Problem:
-I am unsure if the Android 2.2 is installed on the simcard on the actual device.
-I have no idea how to get it working
-I tried a hard Reset however it froze when it was resetting
-Phone won't turn on.
I am unsure if its a LEO or what, its has T-Mobile written just under the Speaker.
What i need:
- How do i fix this issue?
- I would like to install Android 2.2 or Android 2.3 Ginger however all the threads are confusing and i have no clue what to do.
All help would be great.
Ok i have figured out what to do however i can't get the HTC HD2 to be recognised by WMDM, it constantly says ' Not Connected'.

Hi there,
Yes i have downloaded the Official ROM from T-Mobile.com and entered my IMEI, so i suspect its the correct one.
Tried updating from the Computer and it got to 5% and then said Update Failed. With the error 284 Lost Connection.
I also tried doing it from the SD Card with the leoimg file and that got to about 2 percent and then said Radio error, or something
I'm guessing this should have worked, however it didn't

Hi everyone,
I apologize if this is a basic question, but I have had a hard time finding the correct instructions. My phone already has Android on it, and I am trying to update the radio and update the ROM. I haven't flashed anything on the HD2 yet, but I have flashed a few tablets so I'm familiar with CWM to an extent. Most instructions that I have found for the HD2 are either starting straight from WinMo or already assuming that you know what you are doing. Here is the info on what I currently have.
2.08.HSPL
Radio 2.14.50.04
Magldr V1.13
CWM v3.0.0.5
NexusHD2-Gingerbread V3.0 NAND
tytung_r12.4 kernel
OK, so I would like to update the radio to 2.15.50.14. Is there an easy way to do this with Android already on the phone? Once that is updated, to update the ROM I imagine that I'd just follow install instructions at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060
I think I need to start with the radio, though, and that is where I'm not finding the info I need.
Any help is appreciated, and I apologize if this was a simple question.
Just boot into bootloader and flash there using the exe or if its a nbh file rename it to "leoimg.nbh" and put on root of sdcard before booting into bootloader.
Hi,
Thanks for your quick response. So I believe I followed instructions properly. I renamed the radio .nbh to leoimg.nbh and moved it to the root. Went into bootloader and it asked something to the effect of if I wanted to run this, which I did. I got a blue bar across the screen that progressed well until about 90% I'd estimate. There is nothing else on the screen. I don't want to power off or anything, but it has been at this for about 10 min now. What can I do at this point to hopefully avoid any huge issues?
Thanks!

I did move the file to the phone after it was renamed. Once I booted into bootloader it asked to press ower to start update or VolDown to cancel. Now it says that update failed and I can press power to run again or I can press Voldown to go to bootloader. I have a feeling that that means I messed up, but hopefully you guys know how to go from here.

Ok, so just an update. I took my microSD out, and in bootloader it shows "Upgrade ROM code error Please try again." It does show serial and then changes to USB if connected to computer.
Here is what the top of the screen shows:
PB81120 HX-B3
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

CotullaHSPL 0x50
I don't know if that helps anyone. I am still reading the boards alot, but haven't found the solution. Any help would be appreciated.
What size sd card did you use?
It has to be 4Gb or smaller or it will fail.
OK, another update. Hopefully this thread helps, as I felt like I had read forever and still didn't have a full grasp on everything. Apparently I was using a microSD transfer, and I was using a microSD that was too big (at least that's the impression I get from other threads). I got a 4GB microSD and followed the thread below, and everything seems to be correct.

read the thread, we're talking about flashing a radio from sd card, .nbh file flashing.
</slowhandclap>
I think you are trying to make the process more difficult than it should be.
Download the new radio and CustomRUU here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Put them both in a folder and rename the radio to "RUU_Signed.nbh" . Boot the phone to tri color bootloader and connect to the pc. Once detected, run CustomRUU and follow the steps, it should update the radio in a couple of seconds. No need for SD cards!
OK refresher
OK, just a refresher for anyone that is reading this later...
This thread was originally for updating the radio when Android was already on the phone. B/c Android was on, I couldn't get an Active Sync connection. Someone said to put the file on the SD card, which I did, but received an update error. This turned out to be due to using a 16GB SD Card. I changed to a 4 GB SC card, and the update went through perfectly.
Hopefully this helps someone in the future, since I know I had a hard time finding this info on the site.
