Potentially Unrecoverably HD2 Stuck In MAGLDR - HD2 General

Hi All,
For the past few months I've been running a DFT NAND build of Android. Yesterday, the phone was running extremely slowly with some odd behavior in the Android menus. When I restarted the phone, loading got as far as the DFT splash screen but then nothing else would happen.
I have since used MAGLDR (1.11) to attempt to boot a fresh Android image from SD card but this hasn't worked. Have managed to use the USB Loader to attempt to flash another NAND build (both Android and WP7) but even though the download process completed, this still didn't work and am stuck in MAGLDR now.
Have read through the forums here and have tried most (if not all) of the suggestions, however nothing seems to be working.
Can anyone offer anymore advice?
Thanks,
Kev

As MAGLDR gets removed if you flash a stock winmo rom I suggest you to try that!
Before you install the winmo rom you can also use Task29 to completely wipe the nand.
good luck

Thanks,
I shall give that a try this evening.
Kev

Unfortunately none of the suggestions have worked. I'm unable to flash a stock WM6.5 ROM as the RUU doesn't detect the phone.
The device does show up in Windows as a Microsoft USB Sync device, however.
Task 29 does not work either due to the same problem.
I've attempted to flash a new Android ROM release but when the phone reboots, it gets stuck on the green HTC logo screen and won't proceed any further.
I don't seem to be able to get MAGLDR 1.13 on the phone either, as DAF.exe complains about some "Config load failed" error.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Kev

*sigh*
you need to read up on "how to flash stock rom from sd card". no need for RUU i believe; sd card method involves copying a file extracted from the stock RUU and placing it in the root of your sd card and letting bootloader detect and flash the file. search for a tutorial or see the stickies.
once you've done that, make a special note about the part that says you need to boot into bootloader (hold down volume down + turn on phone + keep holding volume down until a 4-color screen appears). i suspect you are not doing this step, this is why windows, mtty, etc are unable to detect the device.
if you have already done the above, ignore my post

*sigh* too.
I've already tried flashing from the SD card but I have the same problem. I get to a green HTC loading screen and nothing else happens. I just get stuck in a reboot to MAGLDR and try again loop.
I've read through plenty of posts on flashing custom ROM's and troubleshooting but nothing has helped.
I don't get a 4 colour screen when holding down VOL-DOWN and the power button, the phone just goes into MAGLDR.
Kev

Just to add to that, Windows DOES detect the device but the RUU doesn't. Only the DAF applications find and can talk to the device.

follow me
1. is the battery have enough jiuce? what HSPL you use? hope its HSPL3 2.08HSPL
2. bootloader . . . .

Thanks for your post.
Plenty of juice in the battery.
I believe it is HSPL 2.08 (well, whichever allowed me to get Android on the thing in the first place)
Bootloader what?
Kev

getting into boot loader (4-color screen) is the key to the whole flash with sd card method.
keep trying. read on how to enter bootloader.
i can remember a few ways.
DEVICE IS ON
1. if phone is already on, hold down volume down (keep it pressed HARD)...don't let go of it!
2. push the little reset button under the battery cover. don't let go of the volume down button!
3. don't let go of the volume down button until the 4-color screen appears.
DEVICE IS OFF
1. remove the battery. reinsert it after a few seconds.
2. hold down volume down (keep it pressed HARD)...don't let go of it!
3. tap the end call button and don't let go of the volume down button until the 4-color screen appears.
remember, entering bootloader is the key.
EDIT: it is better to ensure you have sufficient battery. however, flashing via bootloader SKIPS the battery level checks.

in post 4 you noted you tried task 29 but was successful
you are not even familiar with bootloader, ??? makes me wonder

I'm very familiar with a bootloader, your "bootloader..." comment confused me.
Task 29 was unsuccessful. I've read in a number of posts that you can use Task 29 and start from scratch back at the original bootloader (rather than MAGLDR) but this obviously isn't the case.
Holding down the VOL-DOWN key does nothing other than get me to MAGLDR, which is what happens even if I don't hold any keys down.
I fully understand that the key is entering the bootloader, nothing seems to let me get there.

in this manner, there is only one thing i can think of
you got a bricked device,
you might get some help if you post your querry in the
HSPL thread, or PM cotulla and team

I'm of the same opinion; it is virtually bricked.
The stupid thing is that if I select Android Flasher from MAGLDR, I'm able to flash a different version of Android to NAND but it just won't boot.
Will try a different forum.
Thanks,

Help, I have bricked my HTC HD2 using MAGLDR 1.11

Hello all,
I was trying to get android booting from NAND instead of the SD card, I got a rom with 576ram (recommended) and installed MAGLDR 1.11. Now i cant seem to do anything with the phone, its not bricked as par say, it will show the loading screen and then not move and i can access the bootloader with voldwn+powerbutton but nothing else is happening, I cant load new roms nothing. Im pretty lost here and really need some help of how i can get my phone back onto a winmo6.5 rom so i can remember not to try it again
I posted this in this thread as it does relate to an android situation.

Find Task29.exe with no radio. It's on this site somewhere. You will see some with radios attached to them, so don't use those. Just the plain old no radio version. It will wipe your phones internal memory and you will basically be starting from scratch. Nothing will be on your phone after a Task29. Then go into bootloader. How to enter boot loader after Task29- Once Task29 hits 96% (looks just like you are flashing a rom), hold volume down and power from 96% until it gets to 100% and the tri color bootloader screen pops up. It should say "USB" at the bottom after bootloader comes up if you are plugged into your computer. Then Flash MAGLDR 1.11 again. Then flash your NAND build.
You aren't bricked if you phone powers on.
What operating system is on your PC?
Well it does boot and if you have hspl you did a good job. So if you have magdlr you now need to install Android. Read a guide plzzz!

OS on PC is....#sigh# windows vista ultimate
For task 29 do I have to have the phone connected via usb, because its not recognising it when its even in bootloader
task29.exe didnt work
Don't do task 29,you will just complicate your life even more than now. I don't think you know what you are doing.
You may brick your phone in the end do you have HSPL?

1st try entering the BOOTLOADER, by pressing the volume down power button simultaneously..!!!
Instead of TASK 29, try FLASHAHOLIC which will perform your TASK 29 & help you flash a WinMO 6.5 ROM as well..!!!
PS: - You can even flash custom ROM's, stock ROM's not compulsory..!!!

If you can access your boot-loader your device ain't bricked..!!!
Just boot your phone with VolDown and enter USB mode, reflash MAGLDR 1.11, once this has completed reboot your phone and hold down the power button, you will then see the MAGLDR menu.
Then just follow instructions on how to install an nand rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
it might just be the magldr or NAND ROM not flashed properly. If you can get to Tri-Color bootloader you are fine.
Found out the problem, thanks for all of your help guys, it was the fact i didnt have hspl2 installed....newb points to me
I have exactly the same problem only difference with my problem is when hold vol down and power buttons all I get is the tri coloured screen and nothing else no bootloader menu appears at all.
What can I do? Is my phn dead???

That's exactly what is supposed to happen if you hold the vol down button while switching on. To get to the magldr menu you need to hold the power button in until it boots to the menu (no vol down button )
You guys are awesome!
I've been avoiding dealing with this phone for a while. This post came up first on google search. Held power and volume (mag 1.11 was on it) and upgraded it to 1.13 and now I'm golden! Thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shut down completely your phone (remove batter for 15 sec too)
Place battery back and now hold volume down button.
Still hold volume down button and switch on your phone.
You get 3 color screen.
Now attach your usb cable and connect it to PC
Find on this forum your phone stock win mobile rom (link to officila roms thread)
Run stock win 6.5 rom exe (this is sample name: RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_3.14.479.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship.exe)
Follow instructions on your PC screen. On final your phone reboots.
Enjoy your stock phone.

when you get ready to power back on you have to hold volume down and keep holding it while is booting and it should switched to the tricolored screen, plug the usb cable and it should say usb at the bottom when it connects, and if you have hardspl which I know you have after running android, you can use any custom winmo6.5 rom it doesn't have to be an official rom.
can i flash wm6.5 rom into magdlr usb flasher?
No, flash from bootloader.
awts...i cant enter into booloader mode....im so sure what im doing i sure i follow the instructions of you guys....holding down the vol button and switch on
Are you holding it at the bottom of the button and not in the middle or top, ie as if you are turning the volume down?
I don't think you can flash WM6.5 with flasher. You have to restore from recovery screen by remove battery and restore.

Does the vol down button work normally in the Android rom or when moving around in magldr. To be sure, remove the battery and leave it out for 10 minutes then put the battery back, leave the cover off and try again.
I have heard of one or two users who have also had a problem where the vol down button stopped working. If that is the case there is no way back AFAIK.

volume botton is perfectly working it work around in magdlr mode actually i flashed my hd2 into android rom right now flashing is done without problems, but its not boot normarly it boot only in splash screen....
can you guys post a link of task 29...i will try this method and flash stock rom
but the main problem is i cant enter into bootloader mode
I use this tool for Task29 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917807
Once you run Task29 though it will wipe the NAND memory and magldr and if you can't get back to bootloader mode then you will be stuck on the splashscreen.
Hi,
I'm also having problems, but in my case the progress bar on my phone when installing the new ROM stops at 0% and will stay there indefinably. On my computer a connection problem will be raised.
The same happens with task29.
I've also tried decompressing ROM Utility, putted leoimg.nbh on my 2GB fat32 formatted sdcard, hold down the volume key.
I will get a new screen with "Loading..." on it, but it freezes there.
So, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
Any help will be appreciated.

HD2 stuck in bootloader after WinMo downgrade

I purchased an HD2 off eBay to replace one with a cracked screen. The seller had been running Android and had attempted to downgrade to Winmo 6.5 (no idea why) and now the phone is stuck in bootloader. I figured it was an easy fix to get it back to running Android from NAND, but so far I'm not having any luck.
The screen shows:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x30
It looks like MAGLDR isn't functioning as I can't install CWM (USB init failed error). When I plug in the phone the "USB" message shows up and I get the sound in Windows indicating a USB connection.
I've tried a number of different flashes but all complete much too fast and upon reboot I'm still in the bootloader.
Any ideas?
Install HSPL first.
Is HSPL not installed already? It says "SPL-2.08.HSPL" on the bootloader screen.
You don't flash cwm from that screen. You flash magldr and winmo roms and radios from that screen, then when you restart magldr should appear, assuming your radio is compatible. If not, flash radio 2.15.50 and if it still doesn't start you have problems. Don't touch the spl, you are correct, 2.08.hspl is fine.
First post was SPL-2.08.JSPL, I was thinking is something wrong with SPL.
I've attempted to install MAGLDR a few times and it completes in about 30 seconds instead of the 10 minutes indicated. After rebooting I'm still looking at the bootloader.
EDIT: Just to be clear, I want to get back to Android, not Winmo
Try to flash radio like Samuel said.
I flashed to radio 2.15.50.14, which appeared to work, and still stuck in bootloader.
I have the same radio and it works.
Clean Install MAGLDR:
1. Task 29
2. Flash Radio(2.15 Recommended)
3. MAGLDR 1.13
4. ClockworkMod Recovery
5. Flash rom
If you haven't success could be a hardware problem.
Reinstall winmo and if everything works retry an android fresh install.
This sequence appears to work up to the MAGLDR flash, which flicks straight from 0% to 100% completion. After reboot I'm in the tricolour bootloader screen (even if I hold down power button + down volume).
Just to check I'm flashing correctly, I've downloaded DFT_LEO_MAGLDR113_DAF and I unrar then run ROMUpdateUtility. Is this correct?
When the boatloader loads up, it flashes once as if trying to load something else (MAGLDR I assume) and the text at the top refreshes - don't know if this is relevant
I had a similar problem after my repair. Look into my topic to see if you have he same problem!

This is what I did:

2. Go to red/blue/green flash screen using Volume Down.
3. Flashed using official HTC Rom Updater on PC.
4. Restart Device.
I have however, been scammed.
Remember those 'touchscreen-lines' that run diagonal on your touchscreen if you watch very closely?
They are not present on my device.

i have never opened my hd2 that far, so i dont really know, sorry. I guess you will need a screwdriver but i would look for some tutorials on google on how to open it correctly/safely.
So the only way I should be seeing the tricolour bootloader screen is by holding the down volume button? And if I'm not it means it must be stuck?
I guess the only thing to do is pull it apart then!

[Q] 2 dysfunctional HD2's Dont know what to do anymore

MY PROBLEM IS:​I can't get the HD2 into the bootloader and/or get my PC to recognize the phone via WMDC.
Its just so unresponsive, All its doing is Vibrating constantly/Vibrating patterns/black illuminated screens/ & very rarely, the "Loading please wait" screen with the green android and some other figure I forgot in the bottom right corner. Then on the top it gets stuck on the "aMAGLDR v1.11" and other descriptive words/numbers below it, on the top center.
- INTRO -​
Hi, I'm new to XDA-developers forum, and I have 2 non-working HD2's that have been sitting around for quite some time now.
I've recently tried to get it fixed and get into this type of phone modding, as I can see HD2's are very popular for tweaking software's and such.
I have been searching around the web, more so the XDA forums, for answers to my "Special case" (yes I've seen the video when you first sign up for an account on XDA, quite funny ) of a conundrum...
Anyway, 1 HD2 is fully dysfunctional and shows no sign of life (No vibration/lights) but the lower portion of the back does get warm when I try and charge it. I have no hope for this HD2 and I think its only good for spare parts for someone else.
The other HD2 is "somewhat" functional. Sometimes if I get lucky it vibrates continuously or repetitively.
What I know about the half functioning phone:
Let my friend have it, he did some flashing of the ROM, it stopped working after awhile, and then he gave it back to me because he got another phone.
Sometimes after turning it on, it gets suck on the "aMAGLDR v1.11" screen.
I've searched up "MAGLDR" and know that its some kind of custom bootloader or so.
I've searched up how to update it to "MADLDR v1.13" and update the radio and/or use the "RUU-LEO" file.
I have all those files&programs downloaded and ready to go.
Thank you for reading my thread​
It would be AWESOME if someone could help me, or even inform me of what has happened with it. If you need further answers about my two HD2's please ask me the questions, I would love to try and answer them!

Those repetitive vibrations on starting are not a good sign(usually it means a non/working CPU/motherboard)!
You should flash a stock ROM and see what happens, but I suspect it won't boot up and you'll get again those vibrations: it worth try it and let me know!
Good luck!
Are you able to get to the tricolored screen by holding the power button and the volume down button? If you can get there, you may be able to task29 it and flash it with a new radio. My guess is someone flashed it with the wrong radio. Once it has the correct radio, if there is no hardware damage, it should work again.
I broke my digitizer . I'll be interested in buying the completely dysfunctional one from ya . Send me a pm if you're interested .

Yes, after I posted this thread, I was able to get into the tricolored screen. After that I tried to update the MAGLDR to V1.13, the screen got into the HTC loading screen with a progress bar stuck at 0% then on the computer it says there has been a communication error.
So my problem now is communication from my HD2 to PC, Which is weird because on the tricolored screen, the text switched to USB and I thought I figured it out, but no...communication error.
I am willing to do Task29 but I'm not aware of the risks or precedures.
Ok first off go to here and download the HD2 NAND Toolkit then install it o. Your computer. Next open the toolkit and then connect your HD2 to your computer via USB. Then use the toolkit to run the Task 29. Be warned though the Task 29 will totally delete the ROM partition of the NAND memory in your HD2 so you will not have a ROM on the device then so it will not boot to anything but the bootloader. Next use the Toolkit to flash either a Window's Mobile ROM, MAGLDR, or clk, you can also use it to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery.

Ok, I have gotten the Tool kit but I wasn't able to perform task29.
I got a communication error again, I have tried to do task29 twice.
Here are some screenshots...
HD2
So my problem is still with the communication errors I keep getting if I try to do anything.
Is there anything I can do with the Micro SD card?

You can run a Task 29 via SD card. You need to go to here and download the Repack by ShaDrac. Then right click the file and unzip it. Then find the .nbh file and rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and place it on the root of your SD card. Then boot into the bootloader and follow the on screen instructions.

The only thing I need to put on the SC card is the LEOIMG.nbh right

Yeah that is it, just copy the .nbh file and rename it to LEOIMG.nbh. Then copy it to the root of your SD card.
Edit: Once the Task 29 is done your HD2 will only boot to the first splash screen and you will be able to boot into the bootloader also. This is because the Task 29 removed the ROM from your HD2 and you will have to re-flash clk or MAGLDR then a recovery and then a Android ROM. Or you can always flash as Windows Mobile ROM.

Alright, I got into boot loader mode, then it goes onto a completely white screen with "Loading..." on the top.
After 5 minutes or so, the screen turns off with no instructions to follow after "Loading...".
I pressed the power button to see if it still works and goes into the old MAGLDR v1.11 screen with no menus/options.
Am I suppose to keep holding the Vol down button or something, I think im doing it wrong
Edit: I charged the phone before trying it again for a few hours and I think it was on the white "Loading..." screen for the whole charge.
I don't know whats wrong with it :d

First off sorry for the lag in response but I went to sleep not long after I posted my last response last night. If you never saw a box appear on the HD2 screen that asks you if you wanted to install the update and to press the power button to do so, then you did not run the Task 29. I am pretty sure you didn't anyway because you said you could still boot into MAGLDR 1.11 and if you had run the Task 29 then MAGLDR would no longer be on your HD2.
When you boot into the bootloader by holding the volume down button down and powering on the HD2 continue to hold the volume button down until you see searching. When you see searching you can release the volume down button and then you should see the window pop up that ask if you want to install the update and if so to press the power button to continue. Press the power button and the Task 29 will run, you should see a progress bar on the screen of the HD2.
Once the progress bar is done the HD2 should restart, but it will not have a ROM to boot so just pull the battery to turn it back off. Next, if you want to use Android, you need to install MAGLDR 1.13 or clk. You can install either one of these via SD card, just like the Task 29 you will have to copy the .nbh file for the custom bootloader you want to use to the root of your SD card and rename it LEOIMG.nbh. Make sure to remove the LEOIMG.nbh file that you used for the Task 29. Personally I prefer clk cause it makes the HD2 run like a native Android device, but you are having a communication error so this may lead to problems if you use clk as you have to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery via USB when you use clk. You know I would suggest you try a different USB cable as you might just have as faulty USB cable and that is what is causing the communication error. I would highly suggest you do this before trying to do anything at all more with the SD card. If you try another cable and it does not work then your HD2 more than likely has a faulty mini USB port.
If you try another cable and it works you can just use the toolkit to run the Task 29 and then use it to install either MAGLDR 1.13 or clk and then Clockwork Mod Recovery.

Whoa, after I read your post, I went and found another cable, attached it to the PC and turned on my HD2, it goes to the MAGLDR v1.11, but it has the options where I can use the volume buttons to choose things which I have never seen on this phone before lol.
What do you suggest I do since the options came up.
Wipe it and do MAGLDR v1.13
Or do one of the options on the screen
Okay well I've tried to task29 w/ the new cable, and it still does a communication error so there might be a problem with the mini USB port.
I tried to do task29 again via sd card, and this time I held down the volume down button for like 5 minutes until my fingers slipped, but there was no "searching" screen, just a "Loading..." screen and then it turns off after 10 mins.
I'm trying to get into that MAGLDR screen again with the options but I don't know how to, it was just too random.
I kind of wonder if a wrong radio was flashed to the phone and it got semi-bricked. I bought a phone once that was like that and tried to repair it and was unable to. I think there are people out there that can jtag it.
Maybe dude, right now im just waiting until someone knows exactly whats wrong with my phone and if they can fix it :d
i did do something to the radio, but i made sure it was the correct version according to their list of radios and the radio listed on my phone.
Anyway, im pretty much stuck. cant wipe via USB cable, of 3 different kinds.
and i cant wipe via sd card either.
will go back a few years and try and find old posts on old Kaiser thread,this starts to sound familiar with white screen and comms fail,if I remember properly it was/is problem with spl/hspl.
can you post what info does show on any boot screen.
am busy at moment will try searching later tonight.

One time I was able to flash something onto the phone and it was the "Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14" thing...
I don't remember why I did this but I did made sure it was compatible and it worked.
So it may have been the radio, I am not sure.
I do have pics of the boot loader screen before and after the flash.
If there are no solutions, I might as well sell them both. Which I'm about to do real soon

[q] htc hd2 - htc logo stuck

HI,
I tried to install Android on this phone. I fallowed step-by-step tutorial, installed HSPL 2.08, installed Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14 ROM,installed MAGLDR 1.13 and after that I should get MAGLDR menu, but phone restarted and only shows white screen with green HTC logo. I tried to turn off phone and hold power button to enter MAGLDR, but nothing. A tried with Wipe and then repeat all steps above but still the same. Before on the phone was Windows mobile, but also not working. Can someone guide me how to fix this?
Thanks
You have to wipe the phone with Task29 from bootloader and at 99% of the process hold volume down, boot in bootloader again (4 colors) and then install MAGLDR v1.13. After that the only way to boot in MAGLDR is holding power button when you see Go,Go,Go and should boot into it. Repeat the steps, there is no other way and if not working you do something wrong. Remember to have full battery. Try mine, maybe you are lucky.

I tried, everything done with "succesfully". After installation of MAGLDR it's not showing GO, GO, GO and not showing RADIO and other stuff written with red color in lower left color, just white screen with green HTC.
Can I use something else then MAGLDR?

No, something wrong there and I telling you, this is the only way. Flash again HSPL4 and Radio, different one like 2.12.50.02_2 even if have nothing to do with the problem. Do you use ToolKit? Don't use that, flash separately all the steps. Take off SD and Sim card from the phone. If you stuck in logo because you do something wrong or the phone it's faulty but I never saw that before.

Is there any problem that in three colors screen on top is written "Security unlocked"? I don't use ToolKit, although I have it. I am doing all separately.

Security Unlocked? Never heard about that and no way this happen on HD2. When you are on bootloader on top should be written the type of the Chip, Cotulla HSPL 2.08 only. Anything else is just weird. It's your HD2 branded?

Yes, it' branded. I attached my screen
I tried with different radio rom and then I installed MAGLDR again, but same thing, just white screen with htc logo

There is no difference then. On bootloader did you installed and is written CotullaHSPL? How do you installed MAGLDR? In MAGLDR you execute ROMUpdateUtiliy.exe? If you did then you should boot into it. To me the problem is you don't know ow to boot into it. Try keep pushing call button instead of power button but for me MAGLDR is not installed on your phone. I remember well when I installed MAGLDR I don't have to even push power button because it boot automatically. Did you performed Task29? Between this options you making some mistake.
BTW, I worry if your phone is not locked permanently. This kind of job doing the carriers of your phone but on HD2 to me is impossible.

I uploaded image of my screen in above post. It's written CotullaHSPL. I started ROMUpdateUtiliy.exe, and I turned of antivirus and firewall. Every time is "successfully". I done this already on my old HTC HD2, it should boot automaticaly or should show GO, GO, GO screen. It tried with holding power, holding call button, but nothing

This is firs time I see a problem like that on HD2. Try then instal MAGLRD from Toolkit, it's a last chance, should be no difference but maybe toolkit do something magic. If I know something I will let you know.

Do have other version of radio that you can upload or links for them? Seems that MAGLDR isn't going to start because of version of radio. I have Radio_2_12_50_02_2 and Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14
