so i flashed my phone with the wrong radio i believe but the strange thing is that my computer recognizes it. the doesnt turn on at all but i here the sound of a device being plugged in when i plug it into winodws. is there a chance its not bricked?
the sound doesn't necessarily indicate much.
what did you do? specifics, please?
can you get into bootloader?
i was trying to flash a stock rom and i guess it didnt work?

mate. as i said, specifics please. like what rom / type of phone do you have? what rom were you flashing? you said radio, now you say rom.
also, as i asked, can you get into bootloader?
please, if you want help, we need information.

You may try and follow this solution, I suggested earlier. Click here
Let us know if it worked.
sorry i was vague, i was in a rush to get to work this morning and on top of it i was panicking. i flashed the stock image:
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
i tried that on a hd2 so i could flash hspl3 again and use wp7 on my hd2.
i ended up just sending it in, but if they send it back with no repairs ill try your method... i relly hope they just send me a new one though. i mean... i flashed a stock image to the hd2, so shouldnt they see no hspl and just the stock spl?
again, more details are needed.
like what type of hd2 do you have? if it is a us tmo brand, i believe it is bricked (as you flashed a .51 radio.)
if you flashed your stock rom from your sd card, hspl is removed. if you flashed over usb, and did not uninstall hspl, hspl is still there.
what i don't get is if you can flash a rom, why are you saying it is bricked? no offense, but each post seems to change the story (first it was a rom, the a radio, now you are flashing roms but sending the phone in, still don't know if you can get into booloader, but now you sent the phone in or is it in your possession???) and i am not following what you did, where you started or what is going on. maybe i am totally missing what you are saying (which is possible)...hope someone can help you.
i have the 1024 us tmous hd2. i tried to flash to a stock rom, forget i said radio. i tried to flash the .51 which i did not know would brick my phone, so i played dumb with htc and sent it in to get repaired. if they dont repair it i am kinda SOL because i flashed using usb and they will see it has HSPL. sorry, do i need to include anything else? i am just kinda a noob... sorry.
i swear i posted a response. hmm.
thank you for the details. your assessment of the situation is spot on; unfortunately your phone is indeed bricked. and likely htc will not know about hspl...or so i have heard from others.
curious, why did you send it to htc? did tmobile reject it? if not, and htc doesn't give you a new one, try getting it to tmobile (under warranty)- worked for me when the phone stopped working for unknown reason. good luck.
possible to make it back to work...?

The same thing happened to me. I completely bricked it. Couldn't get into fastboot. Phone wouldn't even turn on, computer wouldn't recognize it, LED's would not come on when plugged into charger or phone. It was that bad. I just went to the T-Mobile store and said that it got like that over night when I left it charging. They sent me a new one under buyer's remorse. It worked out great for me. As for how it did it, I did it the same exact way you did. When applying the 32B radio I didn't flash the radio right. Idk if you read Amon_Ra's guide on how to root it. He didn't specify at first how to flash the radio so when guessing I broke it. Then a few hours later he then posted how to flash it. Just my luck! But I now have a new mytouch and when I followed his directions exactly for the 32B, it went off like a charm. 32B is necessary if you are going to run Hero roms because it is expecting the extra RAM to push it harder. Not so sure about Non-Hero Roms but I believe it might be the same thing. If your phone is as bad as mine, just use the same excuse. They will think it is a defective handset and send you a brand new one, not a refurb. I tried everything to get back into fastboot but I couldn't get the damn thing to start up. It was a sad day. We now have 3 rooted myTouch's that are working great. Hope this helps.
try removing battery for 1 hr and power it up again
You should PM that bloke who's got "have a problem with Android? PM me" in his sigfile. I'm sure he'll fix you right up.

haha how ironic
if you have insurance on the phone...smash it and send it back. make sure the mobo is broken though and not just the screen. if not, well...sorry to hear about your new paper weight.
trying my hardest not to flame here, but.....
specify the guide you followed... a link to it would be a good start
state exactly what steps you did
state what conditions have occured (eg. stuck on logo, wont even power, etc)
state the actions you have taken to try to repair (sometimes you can make things worse but at least we'd know what you've done)
it's rather inconsiderate to not take the time to post these essential points.
you are expecting us to spend more time thinking and explaining your problem then you have bothered. not cool.

i have bricked my HTC Magic while i was trying to flash this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=549591)
but i guess i missed/skipped and had the wrong radio, so then after that all i get is a HTC Magic boot up screen and nothing else.
non of the button combinations work, i cant get to fastboot or recovery using the buttons.
is there anything i can do? any suggestions?!
P.S I DO have a Nandroid Backup (if that can help)

Nandroid backups are useless unless you can get into recovery, or perhaps fastboot through a PC. But if you're bricked like these guys...then that's not possible.

I don't think a flame is necessarily appropriate... Obviously the guy is distraught and doesn't know what else to do and is looking for support - not the time to get on him for not following the right protocol.
I understand your frustration, but try to understand his as well... if you don't want to help, then just let it go - somone else most likely will.
I bricked in the first hour, just think how i feel looking at the phone. $600 for a phonedummy
you gonna tell us what you did to brick it? what radio you applied? What methods you used?
ok now that you say my nandroid is useless

Having my TMOUS HD2 bricked by using Task 29 and 2.09.51 radio, thus losing the warranty, how much does it cost to have it repaired by HTC? Do they even accept them for repair?
Does it even boot to the tri-color bootloader screen? If so, you can fix it (I think). If it is indeed dead, there are some posts describing brief, furtive encounters with a microwave... (wink-wink-nudge-nudge)...
Hope you get your device either fixed or replaced soon...
It is dead, no tri-color bootloader, nothing
does it turn on at all? stuck at the pink/white "stick together screen"?

Since it's less than 2 weeks since you got it, just take it to the T-Mobile store you got it from, and tell them that it just stopped working for no reason. I know it's bad thing to do, but it's better them than you right... I am sure they are prepared for the first set of devices to have some issues
Just be ignorant and tell them that you left the phone charging overnight and the next day morning, it just stopped working. They will just swap the device. Just make sure that you go to the store in-person to pick up the deivce. If you mail it in, they would dignose and probably know you have messed around with it.
I did the same thing with I flashed my device the next day it came out. I flashed a Custom ROM that had a non-compitable radio and it just did not boot. No bootloader mode.. nothing. NADA...
I called the store I got it from, he asked me to come by the next days since he was of all the devices and he was expecting a few the next day. I asked him to reserve one for me for the exchange for the damaged device. I went in the next day.. They just swapped the device. I actually told him to switch the battery from the new device to see if this one works, he said, it does not matter as he had send the whole device back anywayz..
So, good luck. Hope this helps.
Same as above for me except they had no devices left. Out of stock completely with no ETA. I got my refund and I'm back to being HD2'less.
I paid $172 to have me htc blueangel screen repaired if that helps.

Nothing to do with task 29, task 29 is safe. Radios with ..51.. are deadly.
Unfortunately some of the ROM's can be the kiss of death.
I can tell you that you have completely bricked the phone and they can't tell what ROM you have then you can probably get the warranty with HTC. If they discover you have a ROM it will be shipped back to you and they won't even fix it. It's a hit or miss with them.
I sent back one HTC HD with custom ROM and they didn't have a problem. I snet another one back and they declined due to custom ROM.
Just hope you get them on a good day

That's pretty much right....when you flash an incompatible radio to this phone (which that ROM has), that's the surest way to kill your HD2.
You can send it to HTC for repair, where they will likely tell you that you need a new mainboard (CPU, rom/ram, etc) and offer to charge you for it....usually very close to the price of just replacing the phone with a used one.

Can you get into bootloader mode then? Get there and flash a different ROM. Be sure it doesn't contain a .51 radio!

bricked by the radio that rom contains.
sorry.
Got my HTC HD2 rooted and installed droid froyo and it worked for 2-3 weeks, and then suddenly after trying out a program from droid market, called photofun, it just froze, so I removed the battery and put it back in, and it is not coming up at all. Tried hard reset with the vol up/down+power with no luck. Completely dead, would not even go to the boot loader.
So if anyone is in same situation as I was, just search for htc repair in your local CL and I took mine to a local wireless store here and they're able to fix it somehow and cost me $50. Software issue they said.
There seems to be a way to fix a completely dead/bricked hd2, without having to replace the whole mobo, but cannot find any info online. Anyone would like to share please? In case I bricked my phone again or anyone else who bricked their phone.
Hello,
I'm a noob, through and through. I think that I did everything correctly. I flashed Artemis v8.0 and followed the instructions, then it said that it was completed successfully. When it boots, however, it gets stuck on the "stick together" screen and displays the R G and D information in the bottom-left as it should. Also, when I access the bootloader and re-run the flash, I see no image version information listed. I should mention that the flashing process only took about two minutes. I already did a hard reset.
Did I do something wrong? What do I do?
Update: I tried flashing KUMAR and have the same results; the only dirrerence is that the information listed for D has changed to 1.66.KUMAR... oh my...
...Wow.... I can't believe it. It won't turn it on at all after flashing the original LEO ROM. Looks like I'm toast now...****...
What radio are you running? What model phone is it?
The radio is default. I didn't touch that. I installed HSPL then flashed a couple of ROMs, none of which worked. I think that I may have flashed the wrong version of the official LEO ROM fromthe sticky. So, it looks like I'm screwed. The best way to learn from your mistakes is to lose $500.
you still didnt say what phone, tmous is different from all other hd2's
if its a tmous, then yea, i suspect its gone. (it was possibly recoverable at your first and second posts, cos that was roms that dont support 576meg ram, so flashing a tmous specifric rom would(i think) have fixed it, but what official rom did you flash? anything other than the tmous 2.10 rom will have had a bad radio, and as we all know by now, the wrong radio bricks tmous's
(Edit - sorry, didn't mean to rub it in, just wanted to explain what had happened at each step)
I flashed LEO 1.48 (WWE) from the stickied thread. I can't post the link because I'm new. I don't even know what TMOUS means, so I suspect that's not a good thing. It's the model with 1024 MB ROM is all that I know. If I can find out exactly what, let me know.

Yea, tmous is T Mobile US. They will ONLY accept roms of the 2.10 family. Thats why your first 2 rom flashes failed.
However the damage was done by the radio. Stock roms come with a radio as part of the rom, and the official rom you flashed is oooold. Certainly it has a ..51.. radio.
Any radio with ..51.. in the version will not support the 576meg ram that the tmous has, and as it turns out, they stop the phone even powering on. (or powers on but black screen, the PC sees it as a qualcomm usb device, if it sees it at all.)
I've yet to see anyone offer any kind of fix, though i have seen people say they have had it replaced by tmob.
Unlucky.

So if they don't take it back, would they take note of the fact that my warranty is voided so I couldn't go ahead and pay the $150 for a new one? I really appreciate your help.

heh so there is a silver lining after all.
you used HSPL?
if you did that and you go back to store make sure you dont have HSPL more on your phone!!!!!!
I have made the same mistake, i flash the rom energy 1apr , the flash was made succesfuly end phone was started normal and functioned , i close the phone and when i opened him , the phone stock on the wake up screen ( htc on white screen ). what kan I do?, please help me
i had some how same problem before like Sticking in boot screen
1. i tried hard reset hold Volume up+down and press end button till it will start and then it will ask you if you wanna do reset and press volume up for accept after that finish it will ask again to press volume up for boot then it would boot. if does then you need to correct the radio and also ROM which is correct for you
2. another is task29 method
let me know if you could make it...
thanx , i am at work , bath will try later
@costinn : try to flash the proper Radio ROM. It happened to a lot of people because they do not learn about the radio compatibility! Try 2.08.50.08 and you will be fine!

if you get it into bootloader is shuold say connected by USB in this case you can still flash the radio in the exact same way you flashed the rom.
in regards to warranty, flashing custom roms does void warranty but its not the be all of end all, you can flash back to stock but thats something you will need to read about as its quite a lengthy explenation.
which rom and which radio should i use now to get my phone working again
ok i understand ! thanks
im woking with xp, and i flashed my phone with a vista pc
is there a chance to do that with my xp?
with xp you use ActiveSync and vista its Windows Mobile Device Center but the whole flashing process is the same
omg dammed your right my phone is reakting with active sync to usb woooooww thanks a lot , will try now

yeah, by all means do a custom rom, they may seem quite daunting and we all make **** ups but once you've done it once or twice its a piece of cake.
check my sig, read through the help threads and you shuold be ok.
when installing a custom rom always check the Required HSPL and Radios, I have made that mistake before. Once you know what you are doing flashing is a breeze.

now there is another problem!
i installed goatrip and everything worked as it should
then ....
after a freeze with the massage low battery my phone didnt react anymore so i took out battery.
but then ......... it is not reacting at all, it is switched of i cant turn it on
i hope that maybe the battery is broken
but warrenty is lost
somebody can help?
or should i just find a mobileshop who can tell me whats wrong with my hardware
I'm guessing you've tried that, but just in case (since your message doesn't say you did) : have you tried charging the phone for a while and turning it on again (even while connected to the charger)?
If you did try that, you might want to try with another battery, but it would be better if you had a friend with a HD2 to try with his battery before buying a new one.
If you still get nothing, then you'll probably have to send it for repairs..

Well I'm not sure you have another choice but send it to HTC unfortunately.
You just have to hope they can't turn it on either and send you a replacement under warranty, because if they turn it on and see you've installed HSPL and a custom ROM, you'll probably have to pay for the repairs.
has anybody experiance with that?
how hoch will they offer
but what i cant understand.... can a software damage the hardware of the hd2?
Can anyone help me restore my hd2? When i start it up it stay stuck at the HTC screen in green letters. I held volume down and power and flashed this to restore to stock RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship.exe
I believe it is a tmobile version because it sause tmobile on top of the device?
WHat can i do? I can still hold the volume down and power and itll bring up that multicolored bar screen

No if you can still get the bootloader to come up you have not bricked your HD2.
How did you flash the ROM via your computer and USB cable or via your SD card? Will your HD2 just not boot all the way into Windows Mobile? I need as much info as you can give.
i think you just bricked it. Like lawl, i'm sorry but I have no sympathy for this, you flashed your HD2 with the wrong rom. xD You shoulda read and researched before jumping into the fire. xD
Well if you can still get into the multi colored screen, then flash the right rom for it, which would be a t-mobile rom, since you said there is a t-mobile logo at the top.
Well as stated above also, if you can get into the tri color screen, you haven't bricked your device.

Well i connected my device via usb and ran the .exe file. It completed 100% but it remains stuck at the htc boot logo. Took out the battery and restarted it but it just remains stuck at the htc screen.
The reason i wanted to do this was because i installed magldr and i got to that black screen with like 10 or 11 options and tried flashing a rom but it wouldnt work so i wanted to start all over.

I have been reading for the past two weeks, ive had a nexus one evo 4g and epic 4g all rooted and running custom roms, i am no developer but i am fairly experienced following directions and flashing/rooting devices. This device has been the most difficult because it is very confusing that there is different tmobile/telestra, 1024 flash/512 flash size, spl hspl ... i am just very confused about how to run android on this device, trust me i have been reading a lot

Yes go to T-Mobile.com and in the search bar there type in HTC HD2 update you will find it. The T-Mobile site will ask you to enter your IMEI number, this can be found by removing the battery cover and battery. The IMEI will be an a sticker behind the battery. Enter it and you will be abale to download the official T-Mobile update it will have ROM 3.14.531.1 and radio 2.15.50.14..
With a TMOUS HD2 you have to make zure the ROM is compatible with a TMOUS HD2. Even more important youmust make sure the radio that will be flashed is TMOUS compatible, are you will brick your TMOUS HD2. To see a list of TMOUS radios go to here .
Edit: Do not use one of the ROMs from the above link. Sorry I know the above poster was trying to help but you have a T-Mobile HD2 so you really need to get the official ROM from T-Mobile. The link he give is to the HTC site and if you download the wrong ROM by accident andflash it you will brick your HD2.
Oh yeah oops. Sorry, my bad, didn't even read the thing.
Note: This update is not intended for use on T-Mobile(US) HTC HD2, and doing so may have undesired side effects.

It is all cool Skellyyy, I know you were trying to help. The thing is us TMOUS owners have to be very carful when it comes to flashing. We have to read very carefully what we are flashing. minumal if we flash the wrong ROM but it has the right radio, like what appears to have happen to LoveisPeace 2012, our HD2 will just not boot up into Win Mo but still go into bootloader. If we flash the wring radio or HD2 is bricked, dead, done, nomore.

Works both ways man, if you's flash the wrong radio, your phones bricked. But... you's have more internal memory not needing to partition your SD card.

You are very correct Skellyyy the wrong radio to any HTC HD2 will brick the phone no matter what model it is. But the TMOUS model is a lot more suseptable to this as it can only use TMOUS compatible radios. Most other models such as the European model and etc. can use most radios, and I said most not all, that or out there. This is why so many new TMOUS HD2 owners brick there phone cause you really have to read and study to find this info about the radio.

the regular hd2 can use them all. Worst that happens on a regular hd2 is you put a 51 radio on a 576meg enabled rom, and teh phone hangs at boot screen till you change the radio, and thats a rom issue, not the phone thats incompatible.

Thank you samsamuel for setting me straight yet again you have taught me something. Ihave to set and process this information now.
While hittiing the thanks button.
Oh yeah LoveisPeace 2012 what's up with your HD2???
hehe, it matters less and less nowadays, since most set ups require ..50.. radios anyway, so we all use tmous radios.
