noone?????
The HTC Pure updates hosed my phone too, I had already applied hard-spl to my Pure and i've flashed it with dozens of roms. Since I was currently using one of the "Stock" AT&T roms posted on XDA I figured I could apply the updates. Unfortunately after applying the update my phone froze at the boot loader. I was forced to flash my rom using the memory card method and then restore a backup.
you could try putting the phone in SSPL mode manually, (reset button+volume down), the run hard-spl hard-spl in manual mode.
you can then flash your rom using the memory card method. (FAT32 formated memory card, rom file renamed to topaz.nbh copied to root of flash card, reset button+volume down to enter SSPL, power button to confirm flash).
All this assumes you've already tried to hard reset your Pure (reset button+vol up+vol down)
Thanks for the reply! Unfortunatly, i tried the manual method and after it hanging at 0% for about 5 minutes, i keep getting error [262] update error.. (communications error) is this becuase i can not sync with mobile device center (win7)? I really dont want to just have to toss the phone! I have had an at&t tilt, at&t fuze, and now the at&t pure, and this is the only phone i have had this problem with for some reason...
Try Unplugging Your Pure From the computer Take Out the Battery Put the Battery Back in Mean While Restart your computer and Press Power And Volume Down At the Same time on your Pure If its on the colored screen your good,..Make sure your system is online and your not downloading anything and plug in your Pure to the computer it give it about 2 minutes to download the HTC USB driver then once its done your phone will say USB on the bottom of the Red Green Blue And White four color screen Then open up one of your ROM's and Flash it,....Do You Have Windows Mobile Device Center Installed?
If Not here is the Link
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
If you do already you need to uninstall the Driver update for windows mobile media center then install it again .
i can get the bootloader screen just fine! i just can not get hardspl to flash onto it. it sits at 0% every time. the phone will not boot so i can NOT get into mobile device center. The tri-colored screen comes up with no problem and it says USB on the bottom, so the drivers are already installed. I even tried hard-reset and still no luck
There was an additional cab file I needed to install to HSPL the Pure
"enablerapinew.cab"
basically the machine just would fail to load the HSPL without it
but it still functioned afterwards, does yours?
Do a search on XDA find and DL the cab (or I could attach a zipped copy)
If you can still access the device,
just copy enablerapinew.cab to any temp dir on the device
the execute it through fileexplorer
then go back to installing the HSPL (mine then worked fine)
If you haven't already, You should go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312
you'll find troubleshooting info and a link to the extra cab there
If you really are bricked at this point , it sounds like nothing has actually
been changed on your device yet? its just frozen should be still under warrentee? Unless anyone else has a better suggestion you should be
able to return it for exchange to ATT
Good Luck

It sounds like Windows is not properly recognizing your device when it is plugged into the USB port while in SSPL mode.
Have you tried different ports?
Is there another computer you can use?
another thought about returning under warranty
on the boot page of the stock Pure it indicates HSPL 1.83.000
After you update the HSPL it will say HSPL "1.83.Olinex"
this normally an indication of a successful update,
but it will probably void your warranty if they just look at the boot screen
This is true for all Pure (and Tmobile Compact V) Rom upgrades
The Stock Pure came with 6.5 and therefore the 1.83.00 HSPL
The Diamond2s did not, so their solution which reverts to 1.63 <?>
will not correctly revert to 1.83.00 on the Pure.
No way to correct this yet as far as I know,?
All the "reverts" are geared toward the Diamond2s, not the Pure.
But If your boot screen indicates 1.83.00 before it freezes
I'm fairly sure its still entitled to a warranty repair/replace
How could they tell the cause of the failure
was a reburn as opposed to natural causes?
Good Luck

When you put the phone into a manual bootloader mode... Mobile Device Center becomes obsolete.
HardSPL is only needed for unofficial roms. Forget HardSPL for the time being. The goal here is to get your phone operational. Just download the official HTC WM6.5 WWE rom and flash that. Put phone in manual bootloader mode and run the Rom installer.
As long as your phone is in bootloader mode and says "USB"... then your set to go.
Another solution is to try another PC. You'd be surprised how often that will resolve your issues. Perhaps find an XP machine and install Activesync (so it loads the bootloader USB drivers). I had to do that on several occasions when my main PC refused to flash my mobile device.
I did both of the updates htc has for the pure. Both worked fine. I am on the origianal rom. It does reboot your phone and stays on the white screen for a min then it loads the update and the phone starts.
The offical ROM comes back with a wrong vender ID error I guess cause its a "pure" and not the HTC branded "topaz"... NOW what should i do??? Seems like i NEED hardspl so i can flash any ROM, as from what i researched, there IS NO AT&T Pure rom that has been released. I still cant figure out why a hard-reset will not work though.... This is REALLY starting to get me angry!!!
Just for reference, the Pure's ID is TOPA210 32M
SPL-1.83.0000
The official hotfixes worked fine for me as well. Did you apply the hotfixes on the original ROM that came with your Pure?
Also, does the official HTC Touch Diamond 2 ROM work for you? If so, the hotfixes for the Pure are irrelevant, as are any future updates released for the Pure. You should look for updates for the Touch Diamond 2 on the Worldwide HTC site.
If you needed to do a warranty claim, the closest you can get to returning your phone to stock/shipped form is to use the ROM dump using HardSPL and hope they don't notice that the SPL is different. Currently, there's no way to return the Pure back to completely official software.
A hard reset simply wipes everything off and restores everything back to what is contained in just the ROM you currently have on it. If you've flashed your phone at all, you've already wiped out the original ROM that came with it.
It is still the STOCK ROM. I have never flashed it yet.. The topaz rom will not flash due to a vender ID error. The spl is still stock also... i think thats is why i am having this problem. I bought the phone off craigslist so returning it to AT&T is NOT an option either way. My only solution is to find a fix. (or trash it) I really appreciate all of your suggestions and input so far. You guys are by far the best board around! I am a LONG time follower, but a few-time poster. Obviously i have little to contribute to the board.
Can I trouble you to dig up a few version numbers? It'd help evaluate your situation so we can see which options are best for your case.
ROM version? You can find this in Device Information. Start --> Settings --> System --> Device Information
Bootloader version? Do a soft reset while holding down the volume down button on the side until a screen with red, green, blue, and white, ordered top to bottom, shows up. It should be the second line starting with "SPL-..."
The ROM is the STOCK AT&T ROM (again...) I CAN NOT go to start;.... because if you noticed in the first post, the phone will not boot past the white "AT&T WorldPhone" screen... the spl is stock also incase you missed that part. (1.33.0000) I have never flashed the divice. EVERYTHING IS HOW AT&T SELLS THE PURE OUT OF THE BOX! NO MODS. NO FLASHED ROMS. NO HardSPL... NOTHING! STOCK!!! (for those overlooking the details in my previous posts) I have no doubt you guys (n hopefully a few girls ) will help me fix my issue. I'm just REALLY anxious for it to happen sooner than later!
Have you tried downloading the official rom here on xda and renaming it to TOPAIMG.nbh and update using the sd card method?
Here is the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=600339
The download is in post #1
I have downloaded the official ROM. Although I thought it is still concidered "custom" and that you need spl updated to install it... Am I wrong about this? Also, by using the SDcard to flash, do I NEED to have hardspl on the device? If yes, I can not use this method, as I have stated before that the spl is still stock and NOT updated in any kind of way. NOTHING on the phone has been updated or flashed. Will this method still work then???? I am at work for 3 more hours and then will go home and try it either way and come back to update you all on the results. Again, THANK YOU for your continued support in helping me out!! At this point, I will send a donation via paypal to whoever can get me out of this hole!

You can flash hard SPL the same way by renaming the .nbh file to
TOPAIMG.nbh

Actually that is supposed to be an officially signed rom. If that is true it will work with the stock spl. It will either work or it won't. Also, as stated in the response after yours, you can apply the hardspl via SD as well.
So as the title says I am selling my phone through one of thoes websites and I think its best for the origional firmware to be on the phone. So my phone has hspl installed. well I can flash any of the 2.5 roms by just clicking the customruu.
When I first installed the hspl the origional roms colors were all messed up but everything thing fine once I installed a custom rom on it.
How do i get my phone back into its origional state?
Thanks a lot
So I have gone to htc website and am downloading their rom upgrade for my phone it is
_HTC Touch HD_MR_2009_RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship
With my current version of hspl will I be able to just install this and then somehow downgrade my hspl to whatevre it was to start with?
leave it where it is and charge more for custom rom
I just purchased a HERO 6262 GSM on ebay and looks like it is already rooted and is running FirmwareVerison: Villain5.2, Baseband version:63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18, but I want to go back to stock HTC rom. I've installed HTC Sync and downloaded two different RUU's and try to install but it fails. I've tried RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_1.76.405.6_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver and RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_1.76.405.1_R3_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver.
It acts like it is going to install the rom, but it fails. In the RUU I get error 140: Bootloader version error. What am I doing wrong? Or which Stock rom should I install.....please help. I would also like the ability to root again and go to Villain down the road.
Much thanks and all help is appreciated!
Nevermind.....I just downloaded and installed RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver without any problems. So I guess I must use this one from now on to go back to stock version. How about how to reinstall Villain 5.2? Much thanks.
Well you haven't done yourself any favours, putting an official, non-rooted ROM on, then wanting to re-root it later.
Goldcard for you methinks.
Lol
You should have read more before you messed with the phone...
You should have done android backup first.
Now
I think you have to.. root.. then load the new ROM.

why would you buy a rooted phone, just to throw some stock firmware on there to want to root it again?
*Facepalm*
Because I wanted to make sure the phone was all good and not screwed up by the previous owner......looks like I gotta use the goldcard method to root it. However, which ROM do you guys recommend?
with the ruu 2.73.405.5 you can use flashrec-20090815.apk and flash recovery image without goldcard

Seconded. That's actually the RUU I used, to downgrade to, via a gold card. So at least the OP has saved themselves the hassle of that.
Sorry if this has been posted already, but I'm in a hurry since I'm at work. I need to get a replacement phone from tmobile, and I'm pretty sure that since I installed Elegancia, my warranty is voided. What all do I need to do in order to get everything back to normal?
I'm not sure but you must use the same tool. to unistalled. HSPL2_1024.run. to revert it. 2.08.HSPL to 2.08.0000. and then flash to original rom.
Or flash a stock ROM (found in the stickies) from your SD card. That will overwrite the HardSPL. But don't use the 16GB card that came with the phone. It will usually not work using that card. Format a different (preferably class 6) SD card and copy the stock LEOIMG.nbh file to it and flash from there.
or just flash it to the stock rom via USB cable. Pretty much the same process you used to flash to the custom rom you have now it's the exact same thing when flashing to stock rom. Look in the HD2 Tmobile ROM section and get the latest one. That's all you need.

From what I have read and understand, this is bad information (although I haven't actually tried it to verify that it would work or not). From all of the information that the experts have provided in theses forums, you need to flash the stock ROM from the SD card in order to overwrite the HSPL. The HSPL would not be overwritten if flashing via USB and active sync.
i got my replacement and i sent my phone in with a custom rom.
but to go back to stock it's just like you setting up a custom rom, find the original rom you want there are 2 that's out for the phone( the one shipped and the update) and your all set
i just sent in my custom rommed phone also, they didn't care.

Hey guys,
I tried to search in de app but couldn't find it so here is my situation.. yesterday i let my Desire hd Dell on the ground is does work but i got a burst in the screen.. im going back to the store to send it for repair but 2 things..
1. I need to get the stock splash back on it
2. I need to get the phone back to stock..
Please can someone help so i can get phone repaired??
Many thanks already!
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App
No problem.
You can find the stock splash screen here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15430340&highlight=stock#post15430340
Uncompress that and put the .img file in the same folder as your fastboot file (in the Android SDK, it used to be in the Tools folder but nowadays they put it in the Platform-Tools folder), then open a CMD window, (Make sure the file is called splash1.img) and type:
fastboot flash splash1 splash1.img
That will restore the stock splash screen.
To restore the software you have to:
1: Find a 1.32.405.6 RUU that matches the original state of your phone.
2: Flash that RUU
3: Use Visionary R14 to Temproot and then Permroot
4: The Jkoljo's Easy Radio Tool to change the CID back to stock (If you phone was unbranded it will be HTC__001)
5: Also use that tool to restore S-On
6: Reflash the RUU
7: Upgrade to the latest software through the usual software updates.
Hope that helps.
that helps, thx.
Restoring Desire to factory
hi,
i've checked everywhere and i cant find it. i need to restore my desire to how i originally got it, and silly me i did not back up my rom. Can some one help?
Thank you
+ i cant find anywhere a 1.32.405.6 RUU
Stock Roms HERE
ROM 1.32.707.5 CL277010 w/ 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26M
sorry for sort of hijacking this threat, but it is related.
I got a DHD (SE Asia I believe) with ROM 1.32.707.5 CL277010 with baseband 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26M. I rooted it and want to go back (only because I can not apply the System upgrade, which is available), can not find any SE Asia ROM though.
Q.: Can I (safely) just use any WWE RUU or does it need to be the SE Asia ROM?
Hope somebody knows...
If its not for warranty purposes then a world wide ROM is fine. If it is for warranty purposes you would need to get it as close as you could to the original state.
However can I ask why you want to unroot? The ROM's on XDA are much better than the ones HTC give us.
By the way, please start a new thread next time. It keeps things organised
