to flash or not to flash to have android?? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

hi ppl, i read in some post that tmous users don't have to flash a new Rom or radio to run android.
i downloaded cmyFroYoMooStone.Bluetopia.v.0.6 but it gave me the green htc screen meaning no go for froyomoonstone.
anyone with custom 2.13 tmous rom and 2.10.50 radio running android can direct me to any android build compatible??
PS: i was thinking flash to 3.14 because users had say that it have a better radio and that android run smoothly with it but all i've read post with ppl complaining that the rom have issues, maybe not mayor ones but i'm having none with the 2.13 rom reason why not flashing the new updated rom
Thanks in advance

thats what i was afraid of i just downloaded a different radio but since there is no HSPL for the new rom i pretty much SOL unless someone else has another idea.. And thanks for the link..
flash 2.10.0 from sd card
install hspl choose 2.08.hspl
flash 2.13 from usb
double check hspl is still installed in bootloader
flash chosen radio from usb
questions answered, Please post questions on stock radio or rom in the already open stock rom thread at the top of the forum..
Peace,

just got a hd2 today and i have the 5.10 rom and radio 5.08

is some nice enough to show me what i need to know how to download a rom thanks il lappreciate everyone even the haters thank you
those rom and radio numbers dont look anything like any rom/radio anyone has ever mentioned before, , any chance of a screenshot of your 'about phone - software info' page?
Most tmobile us users ( i assume thats you?) got rom 2.10 or 2.13 with their phone, the highest current official release is 2.13
ok i understand i got 2.10
then you need hsp1024 (see my sig) once that is installed you can flash roms BUT you are in the wrong section, go here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=631
and ONLY flash roms you find on that section.
I'm on tmobile us and flash roms out of this section all the time half of the threads never get updated in the other section!
YOU CAN FLASH ANY LEO ROM AS LONG AS IT US TMOUS COMPATIBLE

Is that rom 2.10 or spl 2.10.0000? If the rom is 2.10 (spl 2.08.0000) then as Sam says you can use hspl_1024 (link in my signature) to get hspl on your device, otherwise if you have a 2.13 rom (spl 2.10.0000) you need to flash a 2.10 Leo rom first in order to "downgrade" your spl to 2.08.0000.

[Q] Pls help to install ANDROID

HELP ME .....I can't install android 2.2 in my htc hd2. I read a suggestion to please downgrade redio version to 2.12.50 and spl version to 1.42.....then run HSPL3_PKG to unlock the divice, after this go file Android and tab CLRCAD and Haret ,with in 10-15 minites every thing ok . But my radio version is 2.15.50.14 and Spl is 3.13......i can't downgrade this ...i tried sevarel cab .... every downgrade process end an error.
Pls help me, to install android ..... my rom version is 3.14.479.2 updated in 10/04/10. thanksssssss
Radio etc is fine, what's happening exactly?

"Spl is 3.13......i can't downgrade this"
Have you tried reflashing with the previous official rom?
i don't know if your device is Tmous or HTC HD2.
mine is the latter,i upgrade to the new rom3.14 WWE asia, spl 3.13 and later reflash with the previous official stock rom 1.66 and i got back spl 1.42.
from there i did hspl,flash radio and got android running.
try reflashing with the previous official rom then check on the spl version.once you confirmed it has been downgraded,you can do watever you want to get android running.
always read carefully if the rom you are flashing is compatible with your device.or you'll end up with a very expensive paper weight.
The 1 and only thing that is important is the radio. Seriously, forget about SPL/HSPL. The only reason people say to do anything with HSPL is because you need to have a suitable radio, and until recently there were no stock ROMs with a suitable radio. HSPL would allow you to upgrade your radio.
The radio you have is fine. It needs to be at least 2.08 (you're is 2.15) and it needs to be a 2.xx.50, not a 2.xx.51 (yours is 2.15.50).
Just follow the instructions on the Android build thread (where you download the build) and you should be able to run it with no problem.

NAND Question!

Hi there,
I have got a problem. I have managed to changed my stock ROM from 3.14 to 1.66 because i wanted to NAND my Hd2. But the problem is after installing HSPL2 or HSPL 3 and then installing MAGLDR 1.11 i get white screen with HTC logo. I have read somewhere that it doesnt work with 1.66. Because i cannot find any different Stock ROM than 1.66 and 3.14 does it mean i cannot install it at all ? Thanks

keep 3.14 and flash yourself a radio which supports 576 ram (if your recent rom doesnt already contain such radio). the right radios have a .50 in its version
So i install 3.14 with radio .50 then install HSPL 3 ? then MAGLDR 1.11 and thats it ? I can continue NAND my HD2? Thanks for quick replay

i didnt flash a nand rom yet, but i think i read that you should use hspl 2.08.
basically it cant be wrong the way you posted, but check nand threads about proper installation.
i somehow managed to downgrade to 2.08 but it bricked windows. But then MAGLDR started up and i have now got NAND on my HD2. Thanks
Same problem
Hello, I recently got a new hd2 because my old one broke and it has the 3.14 rom preloaded on it, I can't find anywhere to download the older rom so I can load MAGLDR111 to load NAND android, can anyone post a link to older roms for US t-mobile HD2 or is there a work around to install MAGLDR111?
Thanks for quick response
Flash the radio...

well afaik you do not need to flash anything with t-mobile hd2, you already got a radio version which supports 576mb ram. why should you downgrade to an older winmo rom?
you're ready to go, so you can just go through magldr and android installation

[Q] Default ROM for HD2

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.
