[Q] Backup SPL file before flashing HARDSPL - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I am ready to FLASH HARDSPL on my hd2 but want to backup files in the event I have to flash an original SPL on my phone for warranty issues. DFT states:
"make sure that you uninstall HSPL before sending phone for any warranty issues and they also write in their directions:
“The only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from SD card.
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh".
Can someone please help me back up the needed files? I don’t totally understand the instructions and any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
You dont need to backup any files. Only way to revert back to original SPL is flash stock rom from your sdcard. By stock rom I mean rom that came preinstalled on your device. Search and read please, everything is on the forum. Try here:

I hope that helps.

Boot Screen Help.. Setting it back [ SG ]

Friends,
After flashing my HSPL and my ROMS so many times, I have suddenly gone blank.
If I need to flash my phone back to it's original state, and if I do not have my original ROM, what do I do?
Currently it's booting up with a picture of an Android and a Bird ( I forgot what I flashed to get that! )
I purchased this phone in Singapore.
Any assistance will be much appreciated!

- Rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and copy it to the root of a microSD card thats been formatted to FAT32

Thanks for the insight. Really forgot even what the process was called and couldn't do a read up I normally would. Appreciate your help Polo!

This has been discussed MANY times so have no idea how you couldn't find info via search.
All you need to do is..
a) Power off phone
b) Hold Volume down button
c) Press (do not hold) power button
d) Once Tri color boot screen is up, plug in USB cable.
e) Flash stock ROM from HTC site.
DONE!
I am sorry.... But Thx i Just did that and Its back to Win Mob !

Make sure you use HSPL 4 to revert your HSPL back to 3.03.0000 SPL before sending it back in. If yocflash the most recent T-Mobile update ROM the 3.14 ROM you need to reflash it via SD card as it has SPL 3.10.0000 and HSPL 4 does not have that SPL version in it. Bit flashing via SD card will give you this SPL version if you flash the ROM I am speaking of.
To flash via SD card right click on the ROM and select rename and rename it to a .zip file and hit enter. Then right click the file again and select view, find the RUU_signed.nbh file and copy it to the root of your SD card. Don't forget to go back and rename the original file .exe again so you can use it later if you need it again. After you have copied the RUU_signed.nbh to your SD card use your File Explorer to find the file and rename it to LEOIMG.nbh. Next turn your HD2 off and hold the volume down button down while you power your HD2 back on and as soon as you see bootloader and searching on the screen let the volume down button go and follow the on screen instructions.
This will have you 100% good to go for a warranty exchange or repair.
Hmm, So you want me to take the stock Ruu File that i downloaded from t-mobile and rename that to leo.img....the HSPL on there is currently it shows -2.08.HSPL
in the triloader screen? I am still confused on what to do exactly... i already reformatted the phone with the stock Ruu. And thats what the HSPL is that shows on the Tri Color boot screen of the phone.

Yes you need to revert the HSPL back to SPL. HSPL is a custom SPL and you do not want this on your HD2xif youcare sending it in for warranty replacement or warranty repair. The twocways of reverting it is to flash the official ROM via SD card or use the HSPL 4 utility to revert it cause you can flash SPL as well as HSPL with it. But I recommend you use the SD card flash as the SPL with the current T-Mobile upgrade ROM is 3.10.0000 and HSPL 4 does not have this SPL.cGocto the below link if you are still confused about flashing via SD card, it will explain all.

make its the .nbh file that your renaming to LEOIMG.nbh ... dont just simply rename the .exe file
Well the file i downloaded it seems to just be an .exe file... thats the one i was gonna rename to .nbh... that file is the same one i used to reformat the phone back to win mob 6.5

You havecto rename the file you downloaded. from .exe to .zip and then you can explore the file to find the RUU_signed.nbh file.

the exe file is just an archieve that with in that is the .nbh file.along with the radio and the update software.. you just need to extract it using winrar or prob changing the extension from .exe to .zip... once extracted the file.with the .nbh extention is the rom.. the bootloader will only recognize .nbh... so just change the .nbh file name to leoimg and move it to the root of the sdcard and once in bootloader mode it will detect the file and flash it and remove the hspl
Ok, So i put the leoimg.nbh in the sd card booted to the Tri loader and its just stuck on that screen... its not currently connected to the computer... it says serial on the white part of the screen... How do we get it going... or start the process?
You guys said it should search after letting go of the vol down button but its not moving from the screen and theres a 1gb sd card.

? make sure the .nbh file you renamed was the rom (largest one) and that you didnt just rename it to leoimg.nbh.nbh because thats a common mistake and try naming it LEOIMG capital letter... but thw bootloader should load up the file without any input from you
Also make sure it is on the root of your SD card.
How do we get it on the root... i just copied and pasted it to the micro sd card... and its all in caps! Also it doesnt just start up

Yhe root of your SD card means it iscjust on the SD card and not in a file. So when you view your SD card you should be able to see it with out having to open a file.
oK, So, i renamed that RUu file which i made a mistake in putting it in .zip and re extracting it because i had found another Leoimg.nbh file that i tried using so, I reformatted the sd card to fat32 and but the one i found of the Ruu file.... and renamed it the "LEOIMG.nbh" and re did it... And now it picked it up its installing Radio V2 Rcust bootloader splash 1 os config data...so we shall see what happens...!
Ok, it said Update Success... Does that mean i am done after that or do i have to do anything else?!

[Q] Flashed back to windows mobile but auto reboot at htc boot screen.

So i formatted my sd card to NTFS and put LEOIMG.nbh into my sd card.
Now i booted my hd2 in boot loader screen and started the update.It complete sucessfully.
But after this,it reboots and when htc logo comes up with the white background,it auto reboots again.
Why is this and how can i fix this ?
Also if someone can give me the download link for the stock rom for HD2.
Can you still get in to bootloader? If so, I'd try it again. And here's the link...

Although you're probably better downloading direct from HTC with your IMEI number - that way you'll get the right one (in theory)...here's the UK link - not sure where you are in the world...>
http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=all
by the sdcard method you ned the correct rom for your hd2.
if you will flash another /custom rom, you need to reinstall hspl 2.08
and then flash your rom by the daf / ruu fläsher from windows and not by sdcard.

Is your SD card formatted to NTFS or FAT32?
And after the flash completed, did you press the red reset button under the battery cover?

Only tmous users should select 2.08.0000. 2.x spl is not a stock spl for regular hd2's. there are no reg stock roms that use spl 2.x.

Can it be that i formatted and transfered the LEOIMG file when in USB mass strg in MAGLDR 1.13? because i dont have such card reader or adapter.
Oh and also when i boot after the leoimg was done,it boots and displays some numbers at the bottom.Also the phone wont switch unless it connected with USB.
My current SPL is 1.42 0000
