Help i cant remove hspl

Im sending my phone back to htc so I flashed back a standard rom. I thought this would remove hspl but it didnt now Im ****ting my pants. How do i get it off?

Did you flash stock rom via sd card? That is the only way that flashing a stock rom removes hspl. Otherwise the much simpler method is to rerun HSPL2 and select your original spl (ending in 0000) - assuming you can remember which spl you were on.

how do i flash the rom via sd?

Find nbh file of the rom you want, copy to root of sd card and rename it to LEOIMG.nbh, boot into bootloader and follow instructions. If it doesn't pick up the image, try reformatting sd card (preferably a small one ie 2gb) to FAT32 and retry.

Ive renamed the the file but bootloader does nothing, i only have a 16gb sd. I also put the whole rom on the card and selected it using file explorer and now the windows colour dots are just going around in a circle.

Did you copy just the .nbh file from the rom to your sd card and rename that and not the entire exe file? You also won't be able to flash via file explorer.
Seriously though if you can't flash via sd card (bigger sd cards don't alsways work - although my 16gb card does) just do the second and much easier option I gave you above, ie flash the rom via exe as you have done and then run HSPL2 and select your stock spl.

I cant do that cos now windows 7 wont install the bloody drivers lol. Im FUBAR'd

Be careful in your rom selection. This should ALWAYS be stressed when telling people how to do this. It's not simply a case of getting the one you want. You should always try to get the original rom your phone came with, or at a minimum one that the htc site recommends when you enter your country and phone serial. Flashing a bad rom via sd is pretty much the only way to brick your phone. This should not be forgotten or taken for granted.
That said, download the correct rom, rename to leoimg.nbh, stick it on the root of your sd card. Power off phone, insert sd card, hold volume down, press power.
(yeah I know clyde just typed the instructions, I just like them explained this way).

Have you double checked you card is Fat 32? I couldn't get a leoimg.nbh file recognised, until I found a similar post saying that it had to be Fat32. My card was in plain old fat...

Good point m8, I assumed that as he had already flashed the rom via exe that he had the right one. (I know that's a dangerous assumption given the level of some of the users on this site as some shouldn't be authorised to use anything more technical than a tv remote - no offence elgrego4 ). Noted and I will include that important statement in future advice given

I've just seen from your signatrure elgrego4 that your rom is listed as LEO70 (ie WP7). Did you reformat your sd card after using WP7?

Turn the phone off..Then turn it on while holding volume down. This will take you to the bootloader menu( rainbow color). Plug the phone unto your PC then flash the original ROM that you downloaded from HTC site.No need to sync..Hope this will help.

Hey man if you want to remove HSPL you can just run the HSPL program from your pc with your phone connected in bootloader. It's the same procedure as installing HSPL, but now you must select SPL 2.08.000 instead of HSPL 2.08 while running the program.
I did it this way while I had to send my phone back and had no problems with it =)
You can check your SPL version in Bootloader.

yes it was fat 32, ive borrowed a 2gig so i will try that next

Its flashing with the 2gb card so fingers and everything else crossed

Keep us posted pls. I'm thinking also to bring back because of pixel error on the screen.

Yes........

SPL-3.03.000 is on now. Thanks for the help guy Knowing my luck htc wont find a fault

Pleasure m8, good luck.
Was 3.03 your original spl? If so I guess you do know it's a mission to get back to flash hspl once you get your phone back. You will first have to downgrade your rom to get to a lower version spl and then run hspl.

[Q] Why wont my HD2 Accept ANYTHING?

Hi,
I have been on this forum for the past 2-3 days trying to get android on my gf's HD2 and it just wont have it.
I have tried MCCM's HD v4 Desire one
I have tried Froyo 1.5
I have tried DL Desire Series, both SD and MAGLAR.
The ones where you click CLRCAD.exe then haret.exe either say it doesent have certificates to run or parts are missing. Or it goes to a black scree and gets stuck on "Jumping To Kernel" and it stays like that for ages (tested for 1 hour, never budged)
The DL desire series via MAGLAR wont work either, I need HSPL (sp?) to install MAGLAR but HSPL keeps reporting back that the file Rapi.dll is missing.
My SPL version is 1.42**** so technically thats right ( from what I have read )
I have tried formatting the SD card via PC and device, also tried a factory reset and an additional 2 other SD cards. Still nada.
What else can it be? Someone mentioned the radio but there is so many questions being asked in a specific thread that mine gets lost and since this is more of a global issue I thought a thread of its own is deserved
I really want this and will go to any length to get it ( not keen on ROM flashing thought, would like to avoid turning the handset into a hammer rather than a phone)
Hope I havent busted any rules
Cheers,
Gib

You need radio 2.14 or more for Android.
aka, upgrade your ROM.

You are not alone
You are not alone here.
I have been having this problem too, I get stuck on the HTC white screen. though I haven't tried much ROM but I have tried formating and reflahing of my WM ROM.
I once did a stock ROM official update with: (RUU_Leo_S_HTC_NLD_3.14.404.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2 .15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship)
ever since I have not been able to find how to flash using SPL, I have been flashing using SSPL_RU and my radio is 2.15.50.14.
Could this reason be the problem.
I need help please I want to have a feel of droid.

Know the feeling
I have been trying all the different android magldr sd roms and everytime its the same story. First boot fine. Second boot and on it just hangs at the green htc logo. I have tried so many things i don't know what to do next.

Have you tried one of the Energy ROM's? I found on my unlocked HD2 that these were the only roms (going back a while now) that I could get Android running off an SD card. I've since heard that there is a basically blank rom for people who want to run nothing but android. It's a small rom, only about 30mb.
It's in a few places around the board. I can't remember what the name of that one is off the top of my head, but any of the Energy series, or the Miri ROM's apparently work too.
Good luck!

Solution!
Instructions :
- Download the Android SD version of your choice. Unzip, Extract the 'Android' folder to root of your SD Card. (Make sure to Format the SD card before doing this.)
- After you have done all steps go into Android folder and tap CLRCAD (for working sound), and after that just tap HaRET
-Booting ..
-Enjoy

Ater trying some nand roms i came back to the orignal firmware( the same as you).
And i also have this problem , it just load into a picture with htc on it.

Have you tried using a different SD card? My Sandisk 8gb didn't accept anything. I had an old 512mb laying around that came with my E90, loaded SuperRAM on it (aprox 450mb including data.img) and it booted straight away.

2.15.50.* is the right radio for most SD builds, make sure you have enough free space on SD. most builds have at least 512mb if not 1gb data.img which gets created when first boot. If runs out of space it will get stuck on boot screen. No hspl required with 3.14 HTC winmo rom

I also try to get Android in my HD2 (energy ROM). I am somewhat puzzled however: I want to flick back and forth between WM and Android and many programs I have reside onto my SD card. I have read in an earlier post that before attempting Android I should format my card - does this mean that I cannot have WM data (programs etc) in the same SD card I run android? or that I can transfer them back AFTER I manage (if) to load Android?. Thank you

The SD card has to be formatted in FAT32. Just to make sure the card is clean I copy all my data to my pc, format the card and transfer it all back.

OK thank you - got it!

Unfortunately I cannot get passed the green HTC splash screen - my HD2 stays there for time no end and the only solution is to take battery out. Any suggestions?

Assuming you've got everything set up properly (right radio, hspl, ...) which you can find on the Android forum. I think you'll have to try using a different brand of sd card. Some cards simply don't play nice with Android.

Got uber annoyed with the SD method, just ended up doing a full scale flash to ROM. Was easier lol

I am using Energy ROM (Energy Serie: Energy.Leo.28244.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Feb.12)
My phone just hangs on the white HTC screen when I try to boot into Android from the SD card. I flashed my ROM with SSPL_RU after an update with the Stock ROM (RUU_Leo_S_HTC_NLD_3.14.404.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship)

I would almost agree with that except, i have 2 exactly the same 16 gb cards, each with a 3 gb fat32 primary partition. 1 loads android but wont allow me to do things like take pictures[it says there isn't an sd card.] The second card just hangs at the green htc screen. Even if I copy the working partition to the other card, it still hangs.

Thanks for this Info. I didn't take into consideration that the file will be enlarged during booting. The copied Android folder was 508MB in size but this got enlarged to about 1.3GB during boot up. I thought if I just leave about 1.2GB in all the SD card I have been trying that it should be enough. But I was wrong.
Thanks a lot I have done multiple reboot without any problem.
I am enjoying my first Android feel.
Thanks once again.

Android on HD2 hates most SD Cards
From my own limited experience to also having read many posts I can say that most sd cards prevent Android from running properly on the hd2. Mine works fine with radio 2.14/2.15 and the stock Sandisk 16gb card that came with my tmous hd2, but I recently tried a wintec 16gb card that made Android run like a broke-wheel-cart and other sd cards I have laying around make it fail.
I think everyone needs to add what card they are using to their signature, or else we might all just end up howling in the wind.
Based on some feedback from another post I just ordered this Sandisk 16gb card from Newegg. It is Model # SDSDQ-016G-A11M . It is reported that that model# provides class10 speeds even though it is sold as a class2. It's use with Android is supposed to be good.

[Q] hd2 does nost work at all

Hi i have a big problem. I tried to upgrade my Leo be flashing the new WP7. My previous ROM was NRG. After executing the RomUpdateUtility exe, however the phone rebooted, and NRG logo showed on the screen, and then nothing on. Hard reset also didn't help.

Did you check you have correct hspl and radio? Magldr wont start without 2.08.hspl and 2.07.50.x or higher radio.

and a task 29 followed by a stock rom flash should sort you out

The radio is exactly 2.07.50, i flashed it when i flahed the NRG rom few months ago. The HSPL version however is 1.42. as far as i could see it. Can i install a newer version of HSPL now when the phone is already dead.

The phone isnt "dead" , only your ability to read information before modifying your device.
All you need to do is put your phone into bootloader mode and then flash what ever you want, WM, HSPL, etc etc
a) Power dow phone.
b) Hold Volume down button (just "down", not "up" aswell)
c) Press power button once.
d) Wait till you get Tri-color screen and release Volume down button.
e) Plug in USB and flash rom.

Yea, as above.
Use hspl2 or hspl3 or hspl4, it makes absolutely no difference which, just be sure and only choose 2.08.hspl, nothing else will work.

wrong HSPL, wrong radio, i assume you dont have MAGLDR working given the first two points not correct, overall the post 2 above me is spot on, read, an if in doubt ask, you must have had some thoughts on what you were doing might not work given that you have not carried out any of the steps to install it, so read, ask then install or you will end up killing it one day!

Thanks a lot guys, especially to TheATHEiST. Everything is cool now, well not everything but... WP7 is already running on my LEO and as a matter of fact i am very nicely surprised. Still there are two problems: 1. WP7 cannot conect to the 3G network of my mobile operator in my country and the system does not recognize my 2gb SD card.

You have to set your APN manually. Check your carrier/mobile operator.
Yes, WP7 doesnt recognize your sd card. This is not a problem. This is how it works in WP7. That is why in the beginning (and maybe up to now), people complains of having difficulty to transfer file. You need zune to transfer your file.
Cheers..

The APN settings need setup, use HTC connection manager or manually add them in the settings>phone/cellular>add apn
as for you SD, im not sure what the above poster is talking about, his right in the sence that there is no SD file transfer ( there is but it takes a bit of fiddleing and only works on you PC) but i assume you are actually meaning your Windows phone doesnt have any storage available at all, i mean, windows phone doesnt see the card in itsself?
if thats the case then you have an incompatible SD card.
Right, before you believe all the fud on this forum about "confirmed compatible cards" let me tell you there isnt any confirmed cards. unless you can find one of these at&t WP7 branded cards.
anyhow, that is unlikely, so its luck, class 2 and class 4 are about is good as the advice is going to get, your just as likely to have issues with Sandisk as you are a supermarket own brand, so buy what you can afford but dont expect it to work, even if it is detected you may have issues with it, random reboots, wifi not working, lagging, etc, but once you get a woring card it absolutely flys!

Mate,
What I was trying to say is that when you flash and boot wp7 with your micro sd card inside, it will format and create a partition such that you cannot see it via windows explorer or any other file explorer apps. You cannot transfer the file from your PC to your HD2 (with WP7 installed) via copy and paste. You need Zune to transfer the files.
You still can see the partition created by WP7 in your micro SD card, using partition manager/tools in your PC. You can search in the WP7 subforums
Cheers

[Q] Unable to reflash to stock ROM

Hi guys,
So recently my screen stopped working and I need to get it fixed. I want to revert the phone back to its stock ROM but I can't seem to do that. I downloaded the stock rom and followed this guide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc89Gh0QpIY&feature=player_embedded
But, when I get into bootloader, in the white section of the screen it says Serial and it just stays unresponsive, it doesn't boot up like in the video. Any ideas on what's going on?

Did you rename the .nbh file to LEOIM.nbh? Also did you put thenfilenon the root(not in a folder) of your SD card? If you have done both of these then make a back up of you SD card and then reformat you SD card with a full format and not a quick format. Also the SD card method does not work well with larger SD cards so you may have to try a 2gig or 4gig SD card. Last you can use HSPL 4 to revert back to stock SPL just choose the SPL version from the drop down box when you run the installer, here is a hint the SPL's with four zeros at the end are stock SPL's.

Thanks for the reply
So, I tried reformating my 16 gb SD and still have the same problem. I then tried to do it with a 4 GB SD, same thing. So I tried it with HSPL but I can't sync the phone to my PC since it's in storage mode and with the touchscreen broken I can't adjust it to sync. I'm not taking the phone to a verified dealer so they probably won't care that it's flashed. The problem, from what I understand is that the digitizer is broken, so it shouldn't matter that the phone is flashed, right?
Thanks

You can connect it to the PC for flashing without Windows Mobile through the bootloader (3-colour screen). Just turn that on and connect it; Serial should change into USB and you are ready to flash.
About SD card method: Make sure the nbh file is named LEOIMG.nbh. The letters MUST be uppercase, else it might not work.

[Q] Boot not possible. Seeking advice!

First of all I would like to thank xda and the whole community for making all this possible. I have learned a lot and I am really grateful to all of you.
So I will start with the problem I have.
I have a 512 HD2 Europe version that I used since it came out. First as everyone knows, it came with a 6.5 version, which i got bored of quickly and replaced with a rom that i found on this web-site. 2 years ago i followed all the instructions and successfully installed a working gingerbread 2.3.7 on my device with everything working smoothly ( minimal lag). I was all happy and using it till a few weeks ago when I got a call and when i picked up my phone got stuck and i had to restart by removing the battery. And now come the problem that I am facing:
MAGLDR 1.13 Feb 2011 version doesnt boot my android anymore. Excuse me with the terminology but I got a bit rusty over the years and i might not be saying things right. Therefore I will try to be as simplistic as possible. Every time I try to turn on my HD2, it only loads up to the first screen after the HTC LOGO Screen, which says MAGLDR 1.13 Feb 2011. It vibrates a couple of times and afterwards nothing happens.
Of course the first thought that came to my mind was to re-install like the good old windows style. A re-install fixes everything, however when I connect my phone to the PC, it is not recognized by the PC (so that I can access the SD card).
I would be grateful to anyone who can give me guidelines or contribute to the whole problem-solving case.
Thank you in advace.

Can you get to magldr menu?, press and hold power button
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda premium

No, it just turns on the first screen after the htc logo and the phone does not load anything. A strange remark is the fact that once it opens the boot screen, it vibrates 3 times and then nothing or it restarts itself.

Have you tried re-flashing MAGLDR?

It says:

Afterwards, I am not able to do anything besides turning off by removing the battery.

Boot to multicolour screen again and plug in usb cable to pc and see if the word serial at bottom of screen turns to USB, if so you can install magldr. Otherwise you need to install the correct drivers for your OS. Download and install WMDC if you are on win 7 or XP!
Edit: Here is a link to some good reading to help with the above...

Ok, "USB" appears after "Serial", then the next step is to reinstall MAGDLR but as I start the program it gives me the following error:
An error has occurred
Read below for more information
Error Description: Config load failed.
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (725)
Error Description: CONFIG: can't open config file
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (304)
Any clues anyone ?

Are you using the hd2 toolkit?
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda premium

no, i just use the MAGDLR rar, which you extract and then have to run an exe file.
should i try the toolkit? and is there a 32bit version for it?

Yes get the toolkit, its easier. Make sure to select correct partition size for the ROM.

My advice to you is to start over from scratch and God knows I've done it a zillion times...from scratch here we go...
A1. Chase down and install the HD Toolkit and execute it!
A2. Remove your case, battery cover, and memory card. You will need a microUSB cord.
A3. I'm running Windows 8 Pro on my end and XP prior to it. Make sure your drivers are up to date.
A4. It won't matter if you're corded...plugged in to your computer or you insert the cord with each step.
B1. Press and hold you're volume down toggle, reinsert battery, and you will be quietly greeted with your bootloader's rainbow screen.
B2. Make sure you have "USB" at the bottom center.
B3. Click "Task 29" tab on HD2 ToolKit; this will wipe NAND on your device...it takes only seconds.
B4. The moment your device restarts again press and hold down your volume down toggle and again you will be greeted with your bootloader's rainbow screen. If you fail to get to this screen you will be greeted with "HTC" and that's it...just pull the battery and do it again.
C1. There are a gazillion ways to install the MAGLDR and Recovery but when I do it I click on MAGLDR and it too only takes a few seconds.
C2. The device will reboot automatically and let it. You will be greeted with the MAGLDR menu.
C3. Using your volume down toggle, scroll down to number 5 - USB Flasher
C4. You're looking for "Wait USB...USB"
C5. Open on your computer wherever you have your recovery files...again, there are a gazillion different ways to do this, but I use the cLK1.3_400mb partition for the EnergyROM.
C6. Open the folder and right click "DFT" Application
C7. Follow the prompts...you're looking for Waiting Connection to USB,,,be patient and pay attention to your device.
C8. Your device will respond by installing the file.
C9. From MAGLDR, scroll down to #8 Recovery...you will flash your Roms and other zip files from here.
D1. Using SD Formatter...format your card...it can be anything up to 64GB, really!
D2. Using Mini-Tool Partition Wizard you will perform the necessary steps to set your card up. I usually setup 75% of my card as Fat32 32K cluster, 25% EXT4 default cluster. The formatting of the Ext4 partition will take several minutes dependent upon the size of your card.
D3. Once done, while the card is still inserted to your computer, copy to your card all the zips you will need to flash your phone. You will not be able to see the Ext4 from Windows/File Explorer (Windows).
These steps are for NAND install; I've yet to successfully install EnergyROM by any other method than this way; newer ROMs, no problem regardless how you want to do it as long as your memory card is setup as above. There can be problems with your memory card, especially the slower ones. I recommend Class 6 or Class 10, though there are a few issues using the 64GB Class 10s. I've read the 16GB and 32GB Class 6's are pretty darn good. That said, I am using a 64GB SDXC I reformatted in my HD2. There is lag in the up to date Roms like NexusHD2 ICS and JB, but not enough to take away from a good experience....as long as you don't bog it any further down with resource hungry apps.
E1. At this stage the MAGLDR is the only thing on your device, reinsert the SD card to your device.
E2. Scroll down to #8 and follow the prompts
E3. I installed EnergyROM via NAND for T-Mobile
F1. Once all done and you have the three rings revolving around each other...enjoy.
F2. If you have T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling, use the appropriate file for the operating system; I'm not aware there is a JellyBean version; however, I've had no trouble with Gingerbread or ICS as long as you have the correct SIM card provisioned for it.
F3. I use App2Mgr to transfer what programs can be safely put on the SD card's Ext4. Music, Photos, Videos...you know the drill go on Fat32; you pray you don't have to reformat that part of the card given how much data you may have there.
Think positive! I can't tell you how many times I spent an evening enjoying Trial & Error on my couch! I usually read every known thread on the subject while experimenting.

My advice to you is to start over from scratch and God knows I've done it a zillion times...from scratch here we go...
A1. Chase down and install the HD Toolkit and execute it!
A2. Remove your case, battery cover, and memory card. You will need a microUSB cord.
A3. I'm running Windows 8 Pro on my end and XP prior to it. Make sure your drivers are up to date.
A4. It won't matter if you're corded...plugged in to your computer or you insert the cord with each step.
B1. Press and hold you're volume down toggle, reinsert battery, and you will be quietly greeted with your bootloader's rainbow screen.
B2. Make sure you have "USB" at the bottom center.
B3. Click "Task 29" tab on HD2 ToolKit; this will wipe NAND on your device...it takes only seconds.
B4. The moment your device restarts again press and hold down your volume down toggle and again you will be greeted with your bootloader's rainbow screen. If you fail to get to this screen you will be greeted with "HTC" and that's it...just pull the battery and do it again.
C1. There are a gazillion ways to install the MAGLDR and Recovery but when I do it I click on MAGLDR and it too only takes a few seconds.
C2. The device will reboot automatically and let it. You will be greeted with the MAGLDR menu.
C3. Using your volume down toggle, scroll down to number 5 - USB Flasher
C4. You're looking for "Wait USB...USB"
C5. Open on your computer wherever you have your recovery files...again, there are a gazillion different ways to do this, but I use the cLK1.3_400mb partition for the EnergyROM.
C6. Open the folder and right click "DFT" Application
C7. Follow the prompts...you're looking for Waiting Connection to USB,,,be patient and pay attention to your device.
C8. Your device will respond by installing the file.

?, Thanks for the info, but I had already linked OP to relevant tuts...

Thank you berrywr for the time you spent on my problem. I will try following your steps as soon as I have some free time left. Thank you so much shanman ! I will let you know asap if it worked out.
there is just one thing in the steps given by berrywr.. I have long lost my recovery files (original windows 6.5). Is that a big problem?

Ok, "USB" appears after "Serial", then the next step is to reinstall MAGDLR but as I start the program it gives me the following error:
An error has occurred
Read below for more information
Error Description: Config load failed.
