May 8 2009 ,21.02.32
I was attempting to root this phone using the unlockr one click method using a gold card. Upon loading the ROM and rebooting the phone became stuck on the vodafone flash screen.
I am now attempting to HBOOt the phone using a gold card but keep getting the "Main Version is Older" message.
Can someone please help me or provide an response that may assist me in finding a solution.
TIA
Your goldcard is jacked up. Try remaking it or trying a different SD card.
Im also getting the same probelm. I try it on 2 different micro sd card and i still get the same message. What am i doing wrong.
Same deal. If your getting Main Version is Older, then your goldcard is jacked up. Did you repeat the entire procedure to create the goldcard when you tried the second SD card? You can't use the same goldcard.img for both SD cards.
You can't bypass mainversion is older with a gold card only the region check.. can you get into a rom? And if not what did you flash to break the rom?
Do you have a custom recovery (and can you boot into it) you said you used one click

I thought that was the whole point of the gold card??? I could be wrong though.
You need a different sappimg.nbh file. Search this forum for Main Version Older and you'll find the one that I used.

I try it with 2 brand new cards. One was the sandisk 2gb and the other was the tpk 2gb. i did everything i needed to do to make it a goldcard and they both do the same thing. I just dont understand if they jacked up... why would they boot up on the phone when i press the vol down and power button? Then it loads everything but stops when it saids the Main version is older. Maybe is the Sappimg thats corrupted? Sorry for the questions but im new to doing this on android phones. Ive done the jailbreak on iphones. Im trying something new here.
I resolved this , thanks for the help, I recreated a gold card with a different sdcard and all went fine.
Hi all, i have a request a Goldcard for my Leo T8585.
I want to install ROM Officall 3.14 WWE but i don't want to install it through HSPL and get ~50MB of Free Program.
my CID: E6A600C36FAB60804738305553445303
I have tried the Free Gold Card Image from PSAS Homepage but it doesn't work. When i use Bootloader to load the LEOIMG.nbh at my 8GB microSD Card, it said: "Not Allowed" .
So,please, can anyone here make me a gold card for my Leo, i will be very happy. Thank you.

what, the free ANDROID device goldcard generator? and it didnt work? really? hehe.
try this.
Thank you, i will try it right now.
But i have a question, could i install a new 3.14 ROM for a t8585 came from asia (i think, amazon didn't tell me) through a Gold card?
thank samsamuel, your img work! Thanks!
Install 3.14 WWE without any trouble, but really weird...
My OS failed to boot before i flashed a new 3.14, then i shut everything off, plug the USB cable in and let it there to recharge the battery. About 45-1hrs later, i started flashing the new rom through a gold card. (The battery was remaining ~56% before the OS Failed and i need to shut everything off, and it recharged in 1hrs, and should reach >80%), the install was successfully, but i was amazed, the battery now is 99%-100&!
I remember, when i flashed a new rom, the LED Light wasn't green, it was Red, so the battery wasn't full that time. And the LED Light wasn't on when flashing a new ROM. SO, why i have 100% Battery now? Or my battery is having some error?
yea it does a restart at the start/ Took me by surprise too, but its when it updates the spl. Say you have 1.66, first thing it does it update spl to 3.03, then restarts the phone to reenter the new 3.03 bootloader, then it flashes the rom.
Made my heart skip too, heh.

Heh, yeah, you are right.
It said, flashing have a trouble, then restart a phone and try again...
I was stunned by that messege, but then, everything was okay... Phewwww...
My battery is a myth, but it seem, the battery is okay now. Lucky, i didn't remove the battery when flashing because i thought the battery didn't have enough power to survive the whole task. If i did, i would look up in ebay to sell every part of this Leo and buy HD7 now...
Thanks samsamuel , your Goldcard image work perfect!
I have one more question, next time, i want to install other Offical ROM, just put the LEOIMG.nbh to this Micro SD card? Do i need to re-do the step to make a gold card again?
PS: Radio from this ROM is really good, the battery worked whole day, with Wifi Turned on...
so long as you don't format the card, it will continue to work with any official rom.

I have created a GoldCard and flashed my HD2 succesfully to spl 3.03. When I created the GoldCard and I read it with Explorer on my laptop or in my HD2 I did not see anything. Is that normal? I am just curious.
yea the image is written directly into the cards header. its not data that's stored on the card, it defines the card. think of it as the cards firmware.you can use it as a normal card if you like, so long as you don't format it it will stay gold.

Aha!!! Thank you very much for your explanation sir.
How do I get my HD2 back to stock, I had it running Android on nand, but now my screen broke and I want to send it in for repair. I downloaded the T-Mobile software 3.14 and ran that, thinking thats how, but when I reboot my phone and press Vol. Down it still says I have CotullaHSPL how Do I get it back to stock. Also when I boot my phone it just stays in the T-Mobile screen
bootloader - usb - hspl4 - 3.03.0000 - done

If you sucessfully got HSPL of your HD2 using the advice samsamuel told you (wich is one of only two ways of getting it off hour HD2). Then just try reflashING the T-Mobile ROM. But if that does not work reflash HSPL to your HD2 and run a task 29 on your HD2 then remove HSPL again and reflash the T-Mobile ROM again. If you do not know what a task 29 is it will completely clean out the area of memory (NAND) that a ROM is stored in and reformat that space as well. It is good to do this when flashing a new ROM as it gives the ROM the best chance for a clean install with out a.y hiccups from the old ROM. Just do a such on google or here on XDA and you will find it.

You have to flash the stock ROM via SD card.This will remove the HSPL.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=681317
i have nand android also. once i tried to go back to winmo by flashing via sd card, it just won't work.
anyway, at that time i need to use garmin and thinking of getting desire hd. thank god i failed to flash back to winmo, because after that i bought garmin A10. now i saved money (bought garmin A10 instead of desire HD), and have 2 android.
who said you can't have everything you want?
by the way, do we need to use 8G or smaller card? may card is 16G. is that why i failed to flash via sd card?

I belive using a 2G sd card is the best way.

Yes it is recomended to use a 4GB SD card or smaller to flash via SD card. Also make sure the SD card is formated using Fat 32.
My Leo's touch screen finally died on me over the weekend, which I guess is a good run since launch till now. But anyway, I am getting a replacement phone and got to send this one back. Now it has android loaded onto the nand and I am not to sure they would be happy to get it back like that, so should I just go get the newest update off tmobs website or someone got a link?
Can I reflash the stock rom without needed the screen, if I remember back then you just plug it in and run the exe and it did the rest?
Also is there anything else I should do before sending it back?
If you are using a t-mobile HD2, then yes, you may flash the newest t-mo stock rom. Do it from your sd card if you want to remove the HSPL. But you can also remove the HSPL through Cotulla's HSPL 4, just run his exe and choose the latest SPL.

Thanks but how do you run it from the SD card? I normally just use cwm for flashing roms, and I want to just purge the phone clean. Then I got to pull up all the info to reflash my new one lol.
Don't remember lawl. Just search it up, there's bunch of other threads asking the same question in here. There's one right now in general.
Hi everyone,
I apologize if this is a basic question, but I have had a hard time finding the correct instructions. My phone already has Android on it, and I am trying to update the radio and update the ROM. I haven't flashed anything on the HD2 yet, but I have flashed a few tablets so I'm familiar with CWM to an extent. Most instructions that I have found for the HD2 are either starting straight from WinMo or already assuming that you know what you are doing. Here is the info on what I currently have.
2.08.HSPL
Radio 2.14.50.04
Magldr V1.13
CWM v3.0.0.5
NexusHD2-Gingerbread V3.0 NAND
tytung_r12.4 kernel
OK, so I would like to update the radio to 2.15.50.14. Is there an easy way to do this with Android already on the phone? Once that is updated, to update the ROM I imagine that I'd just follow install instructions at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060
I think I need to start with the radio, though, and that is where I'm not finding the info I need.
Any help is appreciated, and I apologize if this was a simple question.
Just boot into bootloader and flash there using the exe or if its a nbh file rename it to "leoimg.nbh" and put on root of sdcard before booting into bootloader.
Hi,
Thanks for your quick response. So I believe I followed instructions properly. I renamed the radio .nbh to leoimg.nbh and moved it to the root. Went into bootloader and it asked something to the effect of if I wanted to run this, which I did. I got a blue bar across the screen that progressed well until about 90% I'd estimate. There is nothing else on the screen. I don't want to power off or anything, but it has been at this for about 10 min now. What can I do at this point to hopefully avoid any huge issues?
Thanks!

I did move the file to the phone after it was renamed. Once I booted into bootloader it asked to press ower to start update or VolDown to cancel. Now it says that update failed and I can press power to run again or I can press Voldown to go to bootloader. I have a feeling that that means I messed up, but hopefully you guys know how to go from here.

Ok, so just an update. I took my microSD out, and in bootloader it shows "Upgrade ROM code error Please try again." It does show serial and then changes to USB if connected to computer.
Here is what the top of the screen shows:
PB81120 HX-B3
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x50
I don't know if that helps anyone. I am still reading the boards alot, but haven't found the solution. Any help would be appreciated.
What size sd card did you use?
It has to be 4Gb or smaller or it will fail.
OK, another update. Hopefully this thread helps, as I felt like I had read forever and still didn't have a full grasp on everything. Apparently I was using a microSD transfer, and I was using a microSD that was too big (at least that's the impression I get from other threads). I got a 4GB microSD and followed the thread below, and everything seems to be correct.

And have you used it to flash? I've seen one, only one, person in the two years I've been reading here that claims to have successfully used a 16gb card to flash, but it wasn't the tmous stock 16gb.
i have personally used a 16gb to flash roms but havent tried radio flash yet.

read the thread, we're talking about flashing a radio from sd card, .nbh file flashing.
</slowhandclap>
I think you are trying to make the process more difficult than it should be.
Download the new radio and CustomRUU here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Put them both in a folder and rename the radio to "RUU_Signed.nbh" . Boot the phone to tri color bootloader and connect to the pc. Once detected, run CustomRUU and follow the steps, it should update the radio in a couple of seconds. No need for SD cards!
OK refresher
OK, just a refresher for anyone that is reading this later...
This thread was originally for updating the radio when Android was already on the phone. B/c Android was on, I couldn't get an Active Sync connection. Someone said to put the file on the SD card, which I did, but received an update error. This turned out to be due to using a 16GB SD Card. I changed to a 4 GB SC card, and the update went through perfectly.
Hopefully this helps someone in the future, since I know I had a hard time finding this info on the site.
