hey all !!!
I own a HTC HD2 i had custom Rom in it and tried to go back to original Rom (official Rom) everything went ok from my loptop but my cell phone couldn't restart itself, and there is no power what so ever, even if i put it on charge or connect it on pc, it can't read it. so is there anyone out there that can help me out with it? i have done the following thing
1. i took out the battery for like an hour and plugged it to wall charger no result.
2. i hold down the shut down button and volume up button still no result.
3. i put it on charge for few hours i thought it might help it to bot up but it didn't.
can u guys plz help me out with it? thanks in advance
What type of HD2 do you have and what "official ROM" did you try to put back on it?
hey thanks for ur reply i have Htc hd2 t-mobile and it used to run with htc sense, then i installed Ex-CHT ROM - 6.5.5 base and changed the radio as well, then i decide to go back to official Rom and i downloaded Official WM6.5 ROM - HTC HD2 (Leo) - English Version. after running this it shut down my phone and now i cant turn it back on, and thanks once again
Can you get back into bootloader screen. Hold down vol down and power on.
If you can do that then your fine. Just reflash it. Make sure you turn off all your anti virus programs. If you can't get to the bootloader screen than you have a bricked phone my friend.

did all of them but unfortunately its still not turning on, anyways thank you
its dead. tmous (t mo US) phones cannot take any official roms other than the specific tmous roms.
the radio included in the rom you flashed has killed it.
(You didnt paste the whole filename of the rom you flashed, so i can't be absolutely sure, but im betting if you look at the radio version code towards the end it is 2.xx.51.x)

Indeed, what he says. You MUST flash a T-Mobile HD2 with either a safe custom ROM or the official T-Mobile !US! carrier ROM. Flashing ANY other official ROM is a one way, non stop ticket to Bricksville.
Hello guys,
I got a HTC HD2 today from ebay, the seller has 100% feedback.
I have done a search about my problem but I dont wanna do anything wrong on the phone if the phone is faulty and send it back.
My situation was, I got the phone, inserted my SIMcard and set all the first settings. after 2min someone called me, when I answered the call couldnt hear anything and the phone was frozen :\ after few seconds the phone reboot itself and I waited 5min to see if turned back on, but didnt :\
I've tried pressing the yellow reset botton near the battery, I've tried hard reset.
And if I press VOL down and turn the handset on thats the info I get :
PB81120 SS-B3
SPL-2.08.0000 8G XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x50
and on the bottom of the screen says SERIAL, nothing else
I've got the phone from America (T-mobile) I'm in australia, melbourne
I've worked hard to get this phone and now when I got, could only use it for couple minutes
Please help me asap.
Thank you and sorry open other topic about it
Guessing its TMoUS HD2 Leo1024. BTW what rom is installed on it did you get to notice while you had it? Something is odd here you are not sharing with us how does it go and get stuck in that screen.
Well to be safe if you don't know flash it. So don't matter remove the battery and restart it and go to bootloader mode by pressing power button while holding down the bottom volume button. Then connect the device to your PC via USB mount and download and run HSPL or you can do it via stock rom go download 2.10 from WM dev archive thread.
I just got the phone today :\ the seller said to me the phone is the tmobile version 512mb. I'm a bit noob with HTC, Ive been with iphone until today. well, Im not sure which rom I had, but I think its LEO.
Ive tried all afternoon, I removed the battery out of the phone for 2 hrs, then tried again(without SIMcard) and the phone started up again as new settings and asked me to put my simcard in, so I removed the battery and put the simcard in, turned the phone on, it got stuck again in STICK TOGETHER screen
I dont wanna be inconvenient about all my questions, I just want my phone fixed :\
I couldnt do anything with the phone cos I set up the settings, after couple min got a call and the phone froze and it reboot it self stucking in STICKY TOGETHER screen. I was trying to flash it, but how can I sync my phone with windows 7? cos if I put in bootloader screen, it says USB at the bottom but WMDC says device not conected.
Do you have any solution for my problem?
thank you for your reply
Ahhh as you said TMobile I naturally thought it would be Leo1024(HD2-US) but now that you say its 512mb thats not TMobile you are using Leo512(HD2-EU). I had a feeling you flashed your rom as you flashed wrong one then.
So to verify post the HSPL and ROM data from where you got it from so we know. Also visually verify your actual device does it say TMobile on the top? does the button have colors? If both = yes its TMobile.
My phone has T-Moline on the top and has colors on the buttons. its definately t-mobile. I asked the seller and he said was 512, maybe he is wrong.
I havent done anything to the phone I cant flash cos I cant even conect with my computer the phone came from USA. I'm in australia
thank you
If it's a USA TMobile, then it's not the 512 version, and you need to flash only US TMO compatible ROMs or you could brick it.
When you say you tried a hard reset, how did you do that?
It should be when the phone is off you hold down both volume up and down, and keep them held down, then briefly press the power button but keep holding the volume buttons.
What happens when you do that?
Try to flash it through the sd card.
- Download the rom you want, uncompress the files, rename the nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh
(The original HTC rom files can be uncompressed too, even if they are .exe files - you will find a .nbh file inside)
- Copy this file to the root of the sd card.
- Reboot while pressing volume down.
It should start to flash the new rom.
That's what I called Hard reset
I'm doing it again and comes up a grey screen saying
This operation will delete all ur personal data, blah blah blah..
Press VolUp to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel
I pressed VolUp
..restore..completed
Press VolUp to bootup

Well if that appears to work, but doesn't, you could have a real problem there. Do what joooe suggested above - that's the only option you've got left, without sending it away for repair.

how can I know the right ROM for my phone, cos the seller is saying its t-mobile 512mb and @johncmolyneux says that t-mobile is 1024mb
I dont wanna brick my phone at all.
I'm from portugal but I'm in australia, let me know if you can help me flashing my phone detailed. regarding I'm noob about it :\
thank you
or what ROM do you recomend for me?
can I provide you more info about my phone? to get the right ROM for me.
thank you
AFAIK, if it says T-Mobile on it and it has coloured call buttons then it's a US TMobile. Only the US ones have coloured buttons, and they're all 1024MB ROM.
May be wise though to wait for someone else to confirm this, as you've got me doubting myself now!
what would happen if I install AFAIK rom and then my phone is 512mb? would brick my phone? I would be unable to use my phone anymore? thank you so much for all ur help guys

I don't know if it's 100% bricked afterwards, but you do need to install a compatible ROM, made for your device, so you need to be sure which one it is. It's really not worth rushing this and trying to just install a ROM as you may irreparably damage your phone.
ok, I will follow ur advice
should I follow this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6894936#post6894936
how can I make sure is 512mb or 1024mb?
but it says :
1024LEOs (from T-Mobile with 1024ROM) ARE NOT SUPPORTED
but then if my phone is T-mobile with 1024ROM
I can follow this one yeh?

thank you very much
Like I said earlier, wait for a while and let someone confirm that it is indeed a 1024MB ROM, or you will probably brick it and not be able to fix it.
HSPL3 works on all types of HD2 though, so you can flash that. Those links are both actually the same thing.
Just don't flash a ROM until you know 100% that you have the right type.
It is the TMOUS 1024 LEO.
Go to the HTC website and download a T-Mobile USA ROM, you are required to enter the phone's serial number. This will guarantee that you only download a ROM that is suitable for your phone.
Since you really just want to test the phone then go for the 2.10 ROM.
Firstly press and hold the Volume Down button, then tap the power button. This will bring you into Bootloader Mode (as you previously have done). When you plug in the USB cable to the computer the 'Serial' on the phone's screen will change to 'USB'.
As an administrator run the ROM and just tick the box about activesync.
thank you.
can I provide more info about my phone? to make sure for everyone?
thanks

I was 99.9% sure and just wanted someone else to agree really.
Basically, US T-Mobile HD2 are the only ones in the world with green and red call/end-call buttons, and every US T-Mobile HD2 has 1024MB ROM. If the guy you bought it off said it was 512MB then that would explain why it's in its current condition. It sounds like he believed it to be a 512MB version, and flashed a bad ROM. It also sounds like he's palmed it off on you, believing it to be knackered.
As fred_up said, go the the HTC site and download an official ROM for that device. You should be able to install that with no issues and see if the phone definitely works or not.
Good luck mate
@fred_up
do I have to flash first with this HSPL3?
I have downloaded and the phone was detected I went just to the step to select HSPL version to install
the choices are :
2.08.HSPL
2.08.0000
what should I do first?
I will try to find the rom on HTC website.
thank you very much
Hi
A friend of mine has a HD2, never HSPL or anything and still running on 1.42 rom.... Now everytime it boots it goes straight into the bootloader. Since its never been messed around with I find it odd, seen it before with people with other phones. Would this just be a corrupted ROM and therefore it goes there, would if poss a stock rom flash be able to restore the phone, if that is not the case then a warranty return is still valid, but obv not wanted.
What do you think, will this work? I did search but everyone's posts come up with I task 29 and now stuck... etc and not from a stock bootloader as well!
Cheers any help will be appreciated, my first thing I will get him to try is a rom reflash but that will be tonight, I'll update on the progress then!
First thing I would check is if his volume button is stuck for some reason. Second would be to see if it detects a USB connection, then hard spl and new rom from that point. Keep us posted.

The post above me is correct check and make sure the volume down button is not stuck/Hung in the down position. If it is stuck in the down position like it is being held down at boot then this is the cause of it going straight to bootloader at boot up. If there is no problem with the volume down button then try a hard reset of the HD2. Warning this will reset your friends HD2 tolike it was fresh out the box so any photos, videos, documents, and etc that is not on the SD card they will lose. Also any contacts that are not backed up withan app like Microsoft My Phone will be lost. To do the reset while the HD2 is off bold the volume up and the volume down buttons down and press and bold the power button down. When you see the tri color screen come up release the volume and power buttons and follow the instructions on the screen (hint: you will want to press the vume up button). Now if after the Hard reset your friends HD2 still goes to bootloader at boot up then download and flash the stock ROM for their HD2 you can find it on HTC.com but make sure you varifiy that it is for their HD2 by entering the serial number of their HD2 you can find the serial number look under the battery. To flash the ROM let the HD2 boot up to the bootloader and then connect it to the computer via USB cable and wait for the Serial in the white bar of the boooader screen to change to USB and for your computer to show it recognize the pbone and then run the .exe or RUU wich everone the ROM has.
Never thought of the key being held done will try that first.
Also I won't HSPL'ing as its in warranty and a half HSPL'ed phone is well useless
OK so i feel like a bit of an idiot for this one. Turns out what I call a bootloader and he does is totally different. For me Its the tri-colour screen, for him its the red/orange windows boot screen. So it was all solved by a HR. Great..
Sorry for those who offered the advice but it really was not needed. but solid advice it was, you always can rely on help in here
Hello Everyone.
TBH im my opinion you guys are my last hope to fixing my hd2.
So here's the problem.
I have a HD2 that turns on but does not have a functioning touc screen.
ABOUT MY PHONE:
HTS HD2
Has old android in it ( I dont know which one it is, but i can describe it. It starts up with a BootLoader asking to boot android, so i have the option to press yes or no. It has old blue theme in the background.
Here's the problem. I've called HTC support and i learn my phone still has manufacturers warranty. So basically i can just send in the phone, and ill id have to pay is shipping. BUT! here's the problem. HTC does not approve of third party software installed in the phone, in my case it is the ANDROID. So now im trying to wipe android put, and install windows mobile again. I downloaded the t-mobile stock rom and when i plug in my phone, the windows mobile center automatically pops out but it shows an error symbol.
TL;DR
So my question to you guys is how do i remove Android and install Windows Mobile on an HTC HD2 with a non working screen
Thank you so much guys for even considering to help me
Mod if i posted on the wrong section could you please move it for me.
Thanks

Thanks so Much But here's an update
I went ahead and downoaded the HSPL3
I turned on my phone and also pressing the voulme down button which brought to me to a red green and white color. I had my phon conneceted to the computer VIA USB. I first double clicked the T-Mobile rom update thingy and went ahead accpeted the warning signs etc,so the first thing that came up was identifying phone, and after 5 seconds it disappears so nothing came fro that, then later i double clicked the HSPL3 which asked me to either pick the 2.8 or the the 2.8 spl i believe, i had the spl installed so i wen ahead clicked the 2.8. it installed and my phone rbooted and BAM my touch screen worked, and when it asked to boot android i pressed NO. my phone rebooted and iagain the boot loader came up and asked to bott android, so this time i pressed BUt it didnt work because the touch screen stopped working!
So i went ahead to try everything all over but this time i clicked the 2.8 spl and after a minute on my phone it displayed " we hacked it" etc etc etc, i robooted my phone, ad it worked, i turned it on and off twice and it worked i was using my phone after a month So after playing with it alittle bit i decided to put my sim card in it. I turned off the phone and put the Sim card and turned on the phone so i can use it but.....once again the touch screen stopped working... ****!!!!!!
yep, now the touchscreen is once again not working

Download a stock WM ROM for your phone, extract and rename your .nbh to leoimg.nbh. Transfer leoimg.nbh. to your SDcard.....enter bootloader mode....there it will flash back to your WM ROM with all HSPL remove. Time to send back to Manufacturer for repair..
Okay hold on. So when you see stock WM ROM coud that be the "T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_311...." file? and where can i find my .nbh file?

I have an HTC Surround that I cant get to boot past htc logo and if i try to hard rest it goes to spl screen. Where can i get the software to reflash it. I also have another microsd that i can change out if that is bad
still working on
So I replaced the mirco sd and tried to do the restore using the power and volume buttons and still would not get it to try and boot more then a few secs and stop at the htc screen. I also flashed the stock att rom that I got off xda but still no luck. My last chance is trying a new battery today are there any more suggestions
My surround did the same thing recently. It's a problem surrounds have. Unfortunately you have tried the 3 most common solutions.
1: reflash with stock rom
2: Change out sd card
3: hard reset
The only way I know of to get a working one after you have tried those 3 things is hope it's under warranty. :-/

Where did you get that stock at&t rom? I've been all through the developer section and all I see are telus and cingular roms. I've got a phone from the shop that's stuck on the htc logo and replacing the sd card hasn't fixed it. I tried to flash a telus rom because hey what the hell do I have to lose but RUU wasn't able to establish an ActiveSync connection on the htc logo screen looping repeatedly. Is there a way to force it into a sort of download mode from the htc logo to do the flashing from?

---------- Post added at 02:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 AM ----------
i'm guessing this should work:
C. Windows Phone 7 ROM Flashing Instructions
1. Unzip your downloaded *.zip file in a separate folder
2. Press and hold power-on/off button to power-off the phone
3. Press and hold volume-down button and then press power-on/off button to enter bootloader mode
4. When your phone enters the tricolor screen bootloader mode, release volume-down button
5. Connect your phone to your windows 7/vista/xp pc/laptop with a usb cable
6. Verify that your phone will be identified and relevant drivers will be installed by windows os of your pc/laptop
7. After completion of (6.) above, check the usb message connection on your phone screen
8. To flash the new ROM go to your pc/laptop folder of (1.) above
9. Double click on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file and strictly follow the instructions on your pc/laptop screen
Do You still need help about this?
Basically you need to download DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH from this forum, this will allow you to flash a custom rom. The ROM installed at the phone must be a NODO one because mango roms updates the loader and are not compatible.
For apply it you must put the phone on loader. Connect the phone to the usb, turn it off, turn it on but holding volume down key.
Once there you will see the 3 color screen and will say USB run the DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH and follow the steps.
The phone will restart and showing again the 3 color screen but with HSPL now you can install DFT ROM. DFT ROM is basically a custom Windows Phone with the option to sideload apps you just run ROMUpdateUtility.exe from the DFT ROM downloaded and it will upgrade your OS to DFT Version.
Now what? SPL too high!
My brothers HTC surround has crashed, and fails to load the OS. i can get to the bootloader, but it's
spl-4.2.2250.1 (129185) MNG
i've got HSPL and RSPL, but they say DON'T TRY IF NOT 1.X SPL OR IF IT SAYS MNG. his says both. he was running mango, and i'm just trying to reinstall a stock rom. I'm wondering what advice any of you might have. I've reinstalled roms on Samsung devices, but not on an HTC, so i'm not sure what all this is about, or what the consequences are of proceeding. any help would be great.
Thanks dudes.

please?
Is it 1/2 bricked?
If you connect the device to a PC does it go to USB mode? At teh red blue green screen does it say USB at the bottom?
USB
It does display USB. If i leave it on for like an hour, eventually, i just discovered, windows DOES load, and it says "your memory is corrupt" it does connect to the computer, and it is detected by my pc, and it does display USB. I'm going to try to put in a new SD card, but i'm wondering once i do that, will i be able to flash the retail rom to it, with that spl.
thanks!
