$100 Reward if can fix my T8285

Long story short my phone worked fine for months. Went to a 1.56 Rom active sync stopped working. I have already tried everything associated with AS problem, everything. Went to get it repaired at HTC America in Houston, TX there gay and dont support T8285. I have tried flashing via memory card but I seem to be retarded doing it that way. Engineer said mini usb slot works fine, cooked rom may have corrupted AS. Customer service would not let him fix my phone because it was an "aussie version". I just want the phone to sync is that too much to ask? Anyway $100 bucks to anyone that can make it work paid via paypal immediately.

Personally I think your mad offering $100. I'm sure most people would have hepled you for free, including myself. I'm not after your money but offer my assistance.
Have you tried doing a hard reset? uninstalling activesync & reinstalling it?
Flashing different rom. If you can't flash through SD Card, have you tried flashing again via usb. You don't need phone sync'd
Put your phone into bootloader and then connect to pc via usb. At bottom of screen the text should change from 'serial' to 'usb'. Now flash phone by running rom (cooked or stock etc) you downloaded. Put .nbh and ruu file into same folder and then open ruu file and follow instructions.
I severely doubt cooked rom affected activesync.
EDIT
As bonesy said below, you'll need either USPL or HSPL to flash 1.56+ based rom.
Full tutorial or dummies guide to flashing 1.56+ based roms can be found in cRaCKwHoRe's guide. See my signature

Turn off your phone, Take out your memory card, Plug the miniUSB in then power on (Hold volume down press power holding volume down still) This will bring up a coloured screen. Run the ROM Wrapper package exe (BlackstoneRUUWrapper) This SHOULD now install the right ROM.
Please make sure you are using a 1.56 rom with the HSPL or i think it has problems with GFX.

this is on 6.5 rom not sure about 6.1 :/
Untick Enable faster data synchronizaion, I had to do all this on works computer to update a ROM god knows why but this was my fix.
ROM Should load as should activesync now.
Please let me know if this helps
Tried to post in ure original threads but mods were moving to trash each time BAH!

Thanks to both of you guys for your suggestions. I thought I was not a noob when it came to flashing roms but once I could not do it via usb I was a whole different story. Yeah I am offering the $100 just to get people to help. I know you get slammed if you ask a question so I figured I would make it worth someone's time. I am going right now to pick it up from the repair center so I will try during my lunch in about an hour.

So I got my phone and this is what it says.
BLAC120 32M
SPL-1.56.01Olinex
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
and it's just red green blue and white no word on the bottom. Ran BlackstoneRUUWrapper with the nbh file that I wanted and it gave me a connection error. Now it says Seiral in the white.

Well I get it into bootloader no problem but then plug in the usb cable and nada, it says serial. So then I tried starting bootloader mode with the cabe and still nada, it does not even say serial. If I unplug it then it says serial. I have tried both ways to run the RUU Wrapper and I keep getting the usb conncetion error

serial?
Hi, please can you post a screen shot of where it says serial at boot screen?

Here yo go. This picture is with me having the device plugged in it charging fine. Then entering bootloader mode. If I unplug then it will say serial. If I dont plug in before then enter bootloader it will say serial still.

ok, that looks pretty normal,so to recap you fully powerdown the phone by taking the battery out, put the cable into both the phone and pc and the turn on holding volume down and it just sits there?, what happens when you press volume up at this point?

Only thing I was not doing was taking out the battery. Just tried that and still same screen. Nothing happens when I press the volume up button just stays there.

do you have another pc to try this on to rule out an actual active sync problem?

Yeah I have been trying on my latop, home pc, and work pc and nothing same result. I have tried different usb cables, os, reinstalling, everything. Only thing I have not tried is flashing via sd card yet.

brick
its sounds like you have a corrupt spl, it is definately worth trying the sd card as it may allow you to activesync but it may then fallover when it reboots and goes into boot mode. This i where user viperbjk (see android dev thread) may be able to help as he has successfully managed to unbrick a phone.
I had this same problem but powering down and simply triggering the and spl reflash resolved it. your problem sounds different though.

Enter Bootloader without VOL DOWN

Hi all,
my HTC is broken as the vol down hardware button is not working. I was arguing is there's some way to enter bootloader without it. Please also note that I'm unable to start Windows Mobile as the phone is formatted.
Thank you !!

Seems no way ?

does your phone boot?
an easy way to get there is to start flashing a rom it will kick you to the boot loader ...
But there are some endkey replacements that have the option to restart in the boot loader ...

Hi,
thank you for your reply. Unfortunately the phone has been Task 29 Formatted so it's unable to boot to OS. These "End key Replacement" sounds good. What are they ment for?
I've disassembled the phone and found out that the flex cable of VOL Keys is broken. So NO VOL DOWN. Just ordered a new flex cable from China, but it will take ages to get to Italy.
Any help much appreciated

Endkey replacement: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=704631

Using one of them you can go into bootloader mode.I prefer endkey.

well your phone has to boot to use the endkey replacements ...
even if it was task29 if you run the rom installer it it should kick you into the boot loader, but I am not sure about that, does the PC detect the phone over usb, or you could flash from the SD card ...

No USB detection... No Bootloader, No Reset, No OS.
I suppose that to flash from SD Card you need to get into the Bootloader, right?
Thanks (almost desperate)

Just Called HTC support... they say to leave the phone without battery for 2 hours and hope to spawn a hardware reset... will this work :/ ?

Waited 2 hours: NO JOY.
Anyone?

Not sure if it will work or but have you tried an app like everyWAN remote support personal edition?
It basically connects to phone and gives you a view of it via your PC I know you can reboot from pc etc and changes key preferences so maybe you could change the down key config
maybe wont work if you have no OS though but worth a shot the app i use is from sparus-software.com
hope that will help

I do not believe you need to enter the bootloader to flash from the SD card, search the forum for it but , If I remember use a fat32 formated sd card, use a 4 gig if you have an extra one, the ones that come with the phone seem to be flakey when it comes to flashing ..., and if memory serves me put the nbh in the root of the card and name it leoimg.nbh

Hi Thank you for your suggestions... unfortunately it seems the only way to flash for SD is with bootloader... just tested

can't install hspl 3

hello am kinda new to all this, i'm trying to install HSPL 3 so i can flash my hd2 with a rom.
I have it Synced with My Computer. I have t-mobile usaHTC HD2. I open up HSPL3 thing. Press next. And its says its trying to connect via USB. stays stuck on that, then gives me an error message?
what am i doing wrong?
I HAVE 2.10.000 on my phone i just bought it. CAN I STILL flash my phone to get a custom rom????

anybody please, 2.10 i hear there is nothing out yet for 2.10 ?

for hspl... (yes it supports 2.10.0000, , dont forget that much of what you are reading was written before hspl3 was released)
1 - dont use a front mounted usb port, use one around back of the pc, directly connected to teh motherboard, not through a hub or case mounted ports.
2 - be sure and right click hspl.exe and choose 'run as administrator
3 - boot into bootloader yourself (start with phone off, press and hold and keep holding vol down, tap and release power, , when get to coloured screen, release vol down, , thats bootloader, ,) connect to usb, when the word 'serial' becomes 'usb' run hspl (as administrator)
keep trying usb ports.
if you are trying to use a virtual box, for example on a mac, , , dont.
oh, and be sure to extract hspl.exe, dont run it from within the .zip file.

thanks sam i got it, i love you.. now just gotta flash to get the rom

Same here. I'm stuck i just want to update it to froyo 2.2. But i'm missin' this crucial step. Anyone fixed this issue yet?

Dead phone! Microwave?

My phone refuses to boot winmo, it just gets stuck at a white screen (Its worked fine for 6 months, and decided to die today -_-)
So, I want it fixed!
But....
It will boot to the tricolour whatsit so it clearly shows 'coutullaHSPL'
But everytime I try to restore the stock Radio, or ROM is fails.
With the words :
"LEOIMG.nbh - FAIL" and "update terminate UPDATE FAIL"
In red writing.
Which is something, after over a year of doing this stuff on my HD2 alone I have never had happen to me.
So I cant take the phone back to stock, so no warranty!
So what can I do from here? Put her in the microwave so she wont turn on at all?

When you are in Bootloader mode and your USB cable is plugged in what does the screen say at the bottom line ? Serial or USB ?
If you can see USB its all right. So take HSPL2 and run it, after that perform task29. Then try to flash customROM.
This is how it worked for me.

Serial
Sometimes it says neither!

actually had the same problem, its the problem with the sd card, what you can do is reformat it then redownload the rom and try again, should work.

u use T-Mobile stock rom?

What´s your operating system ?
I´m using Windows 7 so i dont´t have the trouble to install the right USB driver´s...
If your device says "serial" there must be a porblem with the drivers... It has to show you "USB". Only then you will be able to flash it directly over your USB cable and CustomRUU...

I would do the following to get your device up and running again legitimately:
1. Take SD card out of device, insert into Card reader and then PC.
2. Download from HTC's offical website Stock ROM 1.66 (or even 1.43) with your S/N
3. Extract this RUU.....exe file to your desktop with 7-zip or Powerarchiver.
4. Rename custom.nbh to leoimg.nbh
5. Check if your SD card is not corrupt or damaged
6. If not, then copy leoimg.nbh to the root of your SD card
7. Remove SD card from PC and reinsert in the powered off device, which is not connected to your PC.
8. Press and hold vol down button and then shortly press on/off button. You should then enter bootloader screen and 1.66 will be automatically installed on your device.
9. At the end of the procedure there should be a message: installation succesfully. If yes, press the little red button beneath the battery to perform a soft reset or remove battery, wait 10-15 secs and reinsert battery and push the on/off button.
10. When the phone has booted up correctly after the SR, perform for extra security a hard reset.
When all goes as it should, you will have the the official 1.66 HTC ROM on your device.
Good luck and regards, Kuzibri

Might be battery related too.

If you can get it into bootloader than it is not bricked. It sort of sounds like you might have a dead battery. Try to let it charge are maybe get an external charger for it.
Now as for your problem with installing a ROM you can flash either by USB and computer or via SD card. If you use the USB and computer method then out your phone into bootloader and connect it to the computer via USB cable and wait for Serial in the white bar of the bootloader screen to change to USB and then flash the ROM.
If you want to use the SD card method put your SD card into a micro SD card reader and plug it into your computer. If the ROM you downloaded is a .exe then change it to .zip and then right click and select viewl or explore wich ever one it shows. Find the .nbh file and rename it to leoimg.nbh and copy it to the SD card and insert the SD card into your phone. Put your phone into bootloader but hold the volume down button down until you see searching on your phone screen then release the volume down button. The ROM will then flash.

Check your battery pins in your HD2 to make sure that one or more of them are not slightly bend more than it should be. If none don't appear to be bend if possible compare them to another HD2 to make sure the are in the proper positions. If they are then you might have an internal hardware problem. But don't just take my word for thag cause I am no expert when it
comes to the hardware side of the HD2.
