Hey guys, I'm a real noob at all of this whole "ROM Downloading" kinda thing. I got an HTC HD2 (1024MB ROM) and an SPL of 2.08.0000. That's all I know, and I need that new Desire HD rom on my phone. I've never installed a rom before (still on crappy winmo 6.5 ) So I need a step-by-step guide that can help me download it. (IN ENGLISH PLZ) I've read other forums, but I'm scared to do anything because I don't want to brick my phone . Someone help please!

Thanks, I think I got some of that down, but what are the steps I need to make to download this rom? I already got the 2.08 Hard spl downloaded and my rom (Desire HD beta 2) downloaded on my comp.
Copy the your Android folder to the root of your SD card;
Open the Android folder
Select CLRCAD file (nothing will happen you select it; thats the way it works)
Select HARET
Then wait and watch the Android magic happen....
The rest is history....

Hey id like to know this as well !!? I've heard that Winmo rom: VBN_RC7_2-Clarity-21916-C1, and Radio: 2.14.50.04 work great for android roms, however, i can't find the links to these anywhere! been looking for hours now help anyone!? suggestions? im trying to use Hyperdroid v1.1
Edit: i got it

Did you change the kernel too or just flash the rom and radio?
hey guys, I haven't been on xda for a while and I don't know the rules so please excuse me.
Here's my problem: I sent my phone back to HTC for a repair and when I got it back, it has been updated to the current OS and radio and my SPL has been upgraded to 3.03, is there a way to install HSPL on 3.03?
Or its permanent I can't? Becuase I wanna try WP7.
Thanks guys, please tell me if I'm breaching the rules.
You can't install HSPL over 3.03. You need to flash an earlier stock ROM that downgrades to SPL 2.08. Have a look in the HD2 WM6.5 Development forum for a ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
So, how will I downgrade without HSPL?
And once I dowgrade, can i upgrade back to the recent rom while i have HSPL3 on? and radio doesnt matter right?

You don't need HSPL unless you want to flash a custom ROM, so find a stock one for your device. Since you want HSPL I assume you want custom ROMs, and they won't affect your SPL.
Is it a custom WM ROM you want, or are you going for Android or WP7 instead?
yeh, Android and kinda WP7.
You can dual boot WP7 from the phone and Android from the SD card, or you can forget WP7 and put Android on the phone instead - that's the only options you have for those 2 OSs.
Either get a stock ROM from the ROM section, or get one from the HTC site (Don't get a 3.xx ROM as that will flash SPL 3.03). Once you've downloaded it, unzip the exe file - there should be a file in there called RUU_signed.nbh. Rename that file to leoimg.nbh and copy it to the root of your SD card. Then, with the card in your device, turn it off and go into bootloader mode (hold the volume down button and briefly press power).
That should flash the ROM and downgrade your SPL version at the same time.
Good luck mate
haha thanks,
not to annoy you but, would SSPL work for both OS's?

Yes you can flash HSPL with SPL 3.03 you just have to use HSPL 4, just click the link in my sig where it says HSPL=2.08 to go to where you can download it, and click on my guide I have linked in my sig to find out how to install it.

I use Hyperdroid it has Chinese in it but I think most of them will have Chinese in them. You just have to go to Settings/Language & keyboard/Select language and scroll down until you see Chinese. Mine has Chinese traditional and Chinese simplyfied, they are at the very bottom of the list by the way. Check my sig for a link to Hyperdroid.

Do you have CWM flashed to your HD2? and to answer your question yes you can change to Hyperdriod but it will be alot easier if you have CWM.
Hey everybody,
I have
SPL-3.03.0000 XE
R 2.15.50.14
on my HD2.
The Problem is, that no flash worked for me.
I can run Coustom-Roms[SD] with this stock-rom perfectly, but everything else isn't possible for me...
I hope someone can help me out my misery.
Sorry for my bad english and thanks for every help
You should really read all the threads on here about WP7. If you did you would know that you need HSPL 2.08 on your device for magldr to run.
The radio you have is fine, but you need to install an older stock ROM to downgrade your SPL first.

Not necessarily, but maybe.
Put it in the fridge for 10 minutes, if it restarts and works fine make another call or play a video. If it does it again then you probably have a bad mainboard (hardware). Either warranty or you're SOL.
your other option is to flash a new ROM and see if that fixes it. Personally to me it sounds like bad hardware. I'd contact the person you bought the phone from.
thank you orangekid,
i made another call and there was no problem, but when i tryed to reboot the phone it stucks on the go go go screen,so i took out the battery and reinsert like 10 times and got it working !!! i think that the prolem is with the SPL/Radio version,
i noticed who sold me the phone has changed the SPL to 2.08 8G XE CotullaHSPL
and the radio to 2.15.50.14 and the os is android 2.2.1 ultimate droid
so can i fix this?

That is the correct SPL and Radio for Android, those are not the problem. It might be the Android ROM, but random restarts when phone is hot is usually hardware.
I would flash a new Android ROM.
now i will try to install wm 6.5, can i install wm with the 2.08 spl and the radio 2.15.50.40 ?
please there is a lot to know about flashing and i try to be careful because i losed my old htc while flashing a new ROM

Yes you can install wm6.5 on your current spl/radio
to get stock ROM go to HTC website hd2 updates & enter your devices serial to download the relevant ROM
HD2 is LEO, if reffering to T-mobile USA version this is easily spotted by t-mobile logo at top & coloured green call & red end keys.
Issue does sound like mainboard CPU BGA issue but a clean install on original WM6.5 is a good idea to test.
Keep it cool will flashing with a fan or by chilling it in fridge if it fails to fuction for a full flash ...

before installing this rom i tryed to install cwm from here to make a nandbackup but when i used "usb flasher" i got usb connection...usb and it stuck there,i cant get back to MAGLDR's main menu
finaly a installed wm6.5 (here) (many thanks to Mister B) but now the problem is really bigger
every 2 or 3 mn the phone freezes and I've had to take the battery out
is my hd2 broken !!!
Hardware problem. Overheating. Mainboard replacement.

Yep mainboad CPU BGA failure.
Time to return & see the seller & smash the HD2 in his face ...
Buying HD2 used is a risky game & buying with Android already installed just increases risk of getting a dud device ...
thanks to all of you,i will see the seller
Dear Developers, I am a noob and want to install Android on my device, have done a lot of research on this topic but can't find any suitable ROM.
I am having HD2 with the following Configuration:-
ROM Version- 1.43.110.2 (70315) WWE
ROM Date- 10/28/09
Radio Version- 2.04.50.22_2
Protocol Version- 15.26.50.07U
Manilla Version- 2.5.19202525.0
OS Version- 5.2.21864 (21864.5.0.81)
Can anybody tell me how can I port Android 4.0(In SD CARD) with HTC Sense into it. Which ROM will be suited and how can i put that ROM. Or is there any method like- getting Original HD2 ROM and then after that all ROMs support the device?
Every time I search on internet I get confused and sometimes scared about DEAD HD2s. I really love my phone, the only problem is that it doesn't support .NET3.5 Framework and because of that there are very less apps available. Once I get android, my phone will shine like a diamond.
I am really not that concerned of HTC Sense what I want is Android 4.0 or 2.3 with all functions properly working.

Arun Wadhwa

If you want to install SD Android there is no chance of bricking your phone. Just download the ROM from the thread (check the SD Development section) place the 'Android' folder on the root of your SD card then run CLRCAD and HARET. As for choosing a ROM, there is no Sense 4 ROM, but aside from that there's basically anything else you could possibly want. People can't tell you the 'best' ROM because different people like different things. Try some out, and decide for yourself.
In future please search properly, everything there ^ could be found with a forum search.
But Still?
You are saying right, but how will I find the right version? I am having a TMOBILE 1.43.110.2 (70315) WWE ROM.

What do you mean by 'right version'? WinMo doesn't affect SD Android, the right version is the one you like best. As long as you have a .50 radio (which you do) you're fine.
@Nigel, 2.04.50 radio doesn't count as a 50 radio, (at least as far as unlocking ram and not bricking tmouses) 2.05.50 and below (and perhaps 2.06.50, I forget without checking) are not tmous compatible.
@op, don't confuse your t mobile issued REGULAR hd2 with all the talk about the tmous, or t mobile USA hd2. You have a regular hd2. (Proven by the rom version)

I thought something was fishy with the ROM version, thanks for clearing that up. Either way, @OP just update your ROM to the latest version or flash a newer radio then do as above for Android.
I replied in your other post....you need latest rom with radio 2.15..(radio above 2.08 is compulsory for Android) ....install hspl4..and then put SD build on card and enjoy...I recommend trying the new native SD way...fastest rom just like nand install
Please go through stickies in the Android forum or search in xda not Google
Samsamuel has enough experience in this forums with guiding and preventing people from bricking their tmous hd2 with flashing. 51 radios...so if he says it's not tmous...it is not...happy flashing

Radio?
You mean if I update my ROM my radio will be automatically updated? If yes, then i only have to put an android rom in sd card and then install it? I hope there is no risk of bricking my phone. Is the latest ROM (WM) available on HTC website(INDIA) suitable for this? Please reply guys! If its really that simple, my phone will shine like a diamond. Please answer while keeping my ROM in mind! Your help will be appreciated.
If it's to be done manually(Radio), then how to do it and what are the risks?
correct, stock roms include spl and radio.
get hspl4
use it to set 3.03.hspl (NOT 3.03.0000, thats stock)
run the 3.14 rom you wanna flash over usb
radio will now be 2.15.50 and rom will be 3.14
go ahead and put sd android on sd
spl?
Okay, so let's make it clear. First, I've to download a ROM from htc India's website, then I've to install it by connecting it through USB, after that I've to download any one ROM from xda developers' website(of android). Then what? What was that 'spl' thing you were saying? How to change that spl, etc... Can you please elaborate. Your help would be appreciated.
no
1/ bootloader
2/ hspl4.exe --> 3.03.hspl (this is a hacked spl, , spl = secondary program loader, , ,it starts the phone, teh hacked one allows the wrong rom to be flashed without failing, , you do NOT currently have hspl because you chose 3.03.0000 which is the factory spl)
3/ bootloader
4/ install the indian rom over usb
done.

Why elaborate when everything's already there for you? There's a forum search tool at the top of your page, as I stated earlier - USE IT.
What?
I am currently having SPL- 1.42.0000, I've already listed my ROM and radio. So first I need to get a new rom from HTC with SPL 3.03.0000 and a better radio. Then I've to install HSPL 3.03 via HSPL4, after that I've to put Android ROM in SD CARD formatted in FAT32, then run the CTRLPD(or whatever) and haret.exe, then I am done! Aren't I right?

I read your comments and researched on many websites and found one with easy guides- Addictivetips or something like that. Now I know the whole procedure. Thanks to you and that website. One last thing, do u think their are any chances of getting hd2 bricked with the rom i mentioned, just last question. Is it safe?
No you don't have a tmous, only tmous risks brick from wrong radio.
