my htc hd2 will not turn on - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

had this not so great idea last night that I would flash my nand android ROM for my HTC HD2 on Tmobile UK, by formatting the SD card then reinstalling CWD and flashing the ROM...
Unfortunately my fone will not switch on, I can get it into bootloader but do not know what to do from here...
any ideas?
I think I need to reinstall magdlr 1.3, then clockwork mod then my nand android rom, can anyone confirm this is right?
please help
ta

whilst I can get into bootloader and it says USB , my PC will not let me access the SD card, nothing happens at all like when the Open folder pop up appears, well it doesnt....
what have I done??

Is the HSPL 3 already installed on the phone?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893

You need to take your sd card out of your phone and use a card reader. There is a problem with Magdlr usb so that would be the only way to copy things to and from the sd card.
I would do a task29, reinstall magldr, clockwork and then go into clockwork and install.
Hope this helps.
bodyman

I have HPSL 2.08 do I need HPSL 3.0??
Sure I have a card reader
But its erm, well formatted now to FAT32...
Whats task29??
How can I reinstall MAGDLR when the phone will only go into bootloader but my PC will not open the sd folder?
thanks

quick seaches found this:
Task29
and you need to be in the bootloader to install magldr -- you use RUU to install that. Then once into madldr, then you can install clockwork -- that uses DAF.
Also, you should upgrade to 3.0.
Hope this helps

Please go read some n00b guides, everything you asked about here is VERY cleary documented, There is absolutley no need at all for this type of topic.
Not trying to be an arse but its just really annoying seeing the forums flooded with these types of topics daily and its because people dont follow simple logic and look at stickies or guide topics prior to jumping in.

trouble is when I connect my phone via usb to PC in order to update to HARDSPL3 nothing happens...
Its like my phone just will not sync with my pc
Even if I get the phone to bootloader mode, where it first says serial, when I connect the fone it does say USB but nothing else happens...
Where are these guides? why are they so hidden...
I dont know if my fone is bricked...please help

If I where you, I would start from scatch.
Go to bootloader when it says USB flash stock WM6.5
Flash HSPL 2.08
Flash MAGLDR
and so and so...

Same problem here with my boys phone. Only thing is, I can't flash anything and wmdc won't recognize the hd2. I feel like an ars lol. Just go buy an android phone and leave winmo in the dust ;-P You might enjoy unloading on it with an ar15 though muahaha

Try using different UBS port or UBS cord and make sure when in bootload your pc show a driver connecting with it or it won't work. And if your on window Vista or 7 try right clicking and run as admin
Also do not have your SD card in while doing this

heres an update:
I installed HARDSPL 3.0
The phone then restarted and is working however I now need to install TASK29
But from lets call it my nand ROM main screen one it has loaded, when I connect attach a USB cable the phone will not sync will windows mobile device centre so I unable to perform TASK29
How can I get around this?
Its great the phone is working again however all I am confident after I manage to run TASK29 it will be clean so that I can install another NAND rom on to it...
Just desperately need my pc OS windows 7 to now recognise my phone so TASK 29 will work, but how?
thanks guys for your help

the plot thickens....
I went into booloader and it still shows SPL2.08 when I downloaded and installed HARDSPL3??? This is the filename I downloaded and installed HSPL3_PKG
Also after removing SD card, the phone boots into MAGDLR v1.13 and then keeps looping into reboot...
On a different note, this time when I phone switched on with USB attached but without SD CARD, my pc OS windows 7 installed a driver and it sees it but now I cannot get into the main ROM screen to run TASK29....
Gonna put the SD Card back in and hope it gets me there that way..will report back in 2 mins..
thanks for your help

so i reinstalled magldr 1.13 and clockworkmod but now when I am in magldr and go to boot ad sd I get the following error message:
load zImage
k: zimage
SD KERNAL OPEN FAILED
it cannot find clockwork mod is that right?
where do i go from here?
thanks for your help

all fixed thanks for your input especially connecting to usb ports this one thing helped me resolve everything
there should be a sticky will all info easily accessible what to do when this happens..
thanks
p.s. if anyone can tell me why my bootloader still shows hardspl 2.08 when I upgraded to 3.0 i would be grateful
thanks guys

3.0 is just an update to 2.08 that works for the newer hd2's
also, task29 will format your NAND -- it is like the ultimate hard reset. I use it when I switch from different roms. That way there is no residuals left over from any previous roms that may or may not cause problems.
check here for any ?'s that you might have. All stickies have been rolled up into one thread.

Well i noticed that task29 doesn't wipe everyhing. I had issues with various rome for a while, I tried task29 many times with no success, the only thing that solved theme where flashing stock 6.5...
And don't go to spl3 or you won't be able to flash magldr, stay on 2.08

Is this a joke? i mean, the stickies are there, you only need to read them and follow the steps you have tutorials and howtos in task29 thread, then in the hardspl thread and in the hd2 sections (sd,nand).
anyway, i am glad, you worked it out

First off what model of HD2 do you have, is it the Eroupean or T-Mobile US model? What version of HSPL did you install? You need to install HSPL 2.08 to install MAGLD cause MAGLD does not support any higher version of HSPL. If you have installed HSPL 2.08 then it might .e best to just revert your HD2 back to stock and started all over again. To revert back to stock download the latest official update for you HD2. You will have to go to your Carriers website and find the latest update if the update is not on your carriers website then go to HTC.com and look for it there. Once you have downloaded the correct update ROM for your HD2 you can either try to flash it via your computer with your HD2 connected via USB cable or flash it via your SD card. To use your computer while your HD2 is off hold down the volume down button and the power(end button) until you see the tri color screen, this is the bootloader mode. Wait until the serial in the bottom white bar changes to USB and then run the .exe or RUU to flash the ROM. If you can not get the USB to show in the white bar at the bottom for some reason look in the folder created from unzipping/exstracting the zip file that the update comes in and look for something like "RUU_signed.nbh" it might not read exactly like that but it will end in "nbh". Copy this to the root of your SD card and rename it exactly like this "LEOIMG.nbh", this is the only file name the bootloader will except. You may also need to use a micro SD card reader to copy this to your SD card. when you have the file coppied and renamed on your SD card while your HD2 is off hold the volume button and the power(end button) down until you see the bootloader and as soon as it says searching on the screen let go of the volume down button and the ROM should flash this might take a little longer than flashing via your computer so don't freak out if the screen stays black for a while or if the progress bar hangs occassionaly during the flashing. Also if this does not work visit the thread on flashing via SD card cause there is other variables to flashing via SD card like size, class and the way your SD card is formatted. Here is a link to the thread Also after you have flashed the official update ROM you will no longer have HSPL so you will have to reflash it befor trying to teflash MAGLD.
If he has 2.08, their is no need to do it all over again.

Yesthey could try to reflash MAGLD by manualy putting the HD2 into bootloader. But from what thier post says.
I can't turn it on or off, I can't connect to PC I can't do nothing!!!!

So maybe reverting back to stock and starting all over again would be best.
Thank a lot! I try all of this but my phone stays with this colours and nothing is going on

If your HD2 will still go to the bootloader than it should be savable. If you tried to flash via your SD card and nothing then either you did not release the volume down button fat enough when searching appeared on the phone screen. Or your SD card is either not compatible to use for flashing, it is not the right class of SD card to flash with, or your SD card is not formatted correctly. I suggest you go to the link I posted in my first post here and read through the thread it will tell you how to solve any of these problems and you can post there in that thread also some one there can probably give you more advice.
If you tried to flash via you computer and USB cable then you have to have it say USB in the bottom white bar of the bootloader, other wise it will not flash the ROM. Also you have to make sure you run the exe or RUU right to flash from your computer.
I hope you can get your HD2 working again. Oh yeah you never said what model HD2 you have.
Also what carrier are you with?
OMG I did it!! hehehe thanks again!! i connect phone via usb to my pc when I had this colours and then I instal again on phone ROM and it works!!!!!!!!!

Glad to know you got it fixed. Just be carful and follow all instructions exactly if you want to install a NAND Andriod ROM. And make sure to select HSPL 2.08 when you reflash HSPL to your HD2.

[Q] How can I boot WM 6.5 After Installing MAGLDR 1.13

It is said that you have to hold the power button to load MAGLDR after resetting the phone, but when I reset the phone it automatically boots to MAGLDR, instead of WM 6.5. Can you guys tell me how to access WM 6.5 from MAGLDR?
I forgot to mention that I always get this message before it boots to MAGLDR after resetting.
Rebooting Android from SD
Android loads at 11000000
From MicroSD
Load zIMAGE
K:\ zIMAGE
SD Kernal Open Failed.
Should I be concerned?
I haven't installed Android yet, but I'm in the process of installing Clockwork 1.3
I also tried to do a factory reset through MAGLDR, but it only goes back to the MAGLDR main screen. Help? Please?
First of all, use the "edit post" button to add text to the first post instead of making two new
Yesterday I got the exact same problem. Someone said that it is because the MAGLDR can't see the wrongly flashed ROM. However, I did not notice that it is something wrong with it.
What ROM do you have and which HSPL version ?
I had WinMo 1.46 stock and HSPL 2.08
my apologies.
stock? i'm using Radio 2.15 HSPL 2.08
did you correct your problem?
would it be safe to manually hard reset?
You can't boot Windows Mobile 6.5 if you have MAGLDR installed. But there is simply way back - just run RUU with stock 1.48 ROM on your PC, while having your HD2 connected to PC (phone has to be in bootloader, that rainbow screen).
I didn't correct my problem. I had to flash WinMo back from the SD card but the raven_raven's method is also possible.
So raven, why I can't boot into WinMo with MAGLDR? I've seen many people doing that by not keeping the power button pressed
From what I know, it's impossible to boot into WM6.5 if you have MAGLDR on your device. Its purpose is to load Linux kernel, not WM .
I'm kinda confused right now
If you flashed MAGLDR, why would you want to use WinMo? The main purpose of MAGLDR is to boot Android/WP7 on the NAND. It over-writes the WinMo you had on it before.
The error you're getting, you shouldn't be worried about it at all. All it is is that you haven't flashed a ROM yet. What do you mean you're in the process of flashing Clockwork? It's not hard... just flash the DFT file on your PC via the USB Flasher option and you'll have Clockwork. Then you install your .zip ROM, reboot and you won't get an error anymore as you'll have a ROM flashed.
Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated.
I can't access the USB Flasher. When I connect my phone to my PC, my SD card doesn't show up, instead, its recognized as an "unspecified" MAGLDR driver. I can't do anything with that.
But I can access my SD card through USB Mass Storage, but I don't want to install DFT on Mass Storage when I'm told to use USB Flasher. I don't want to do anything stupid

the usb flasher option is not to mount your sd card, it is just used to flash files/roms via daf.exe. use the usb flasher to install clockworkmod1.3, once that is done boot back into magldr and go to ad recovery, and recovery should start. from there you can mount as usb mass storage. i belive the one in magldr doesn't work very well, or at all for some, the one in clockwork always seems to work well for me.
guys its simple your not supposed to use MAGLDR if your going ot go back WM6.5.
tunr your phone off. hold the volume down button and press the power button, do not let go of the volume button, its going to bring you a tri colored screen. once your in that screen plug in your USB cable to the phone and to your computer. once that is doen flash a official WM6.5 rom let it do what it does,its going to restart and there you go back on WM6.5
there is no way you can boot Win 6.5 if you got MAGLDR, never seen it here
(unless someone shows a video or something)
the only way that can be achieved is to go into bootloader (tricolor screen)
and flash Win 6.5
I thought MAGLDR was for dualbooting. I wanted to go back to 6.5 in case I ran into any problems with the android builds Nontheless, I successfully installed Cyanogenmod, and it works perfectly. I dont think i'll be going back to 6.5.
Thanks for the help, it was greatly appreciated.
Hold volume down and power button when turning the phone on, it will get you into tree color screen...then plug your phone into pc .....on the of run rom installer for win 6.5 and after it is done you should be able to boot into win 6.5.

Hi guys!
I have the same problem.
my question is if I the official ROM is it going to erase/format the old one that I had?
The reason is that I did not backup everything and it would be nice if I could go back and get the rest of my contacts...
Is there any way of having a dual boot
BEWARE: complete noob!!!

Are you honestly incapable of reading? What kind of complete MORON flashes something to their phone without a full knowledge of exactly what it will do?! If you install WinMo again you will have lost all of your data that is on the internal storage of your phone, and to be honest you deserve it if you are stupid enough to flash something without reading about what it does.
On a more positive note, you can flash NAND Android instead of reflashing WinMo if you want, using this guide. Since you would go ahead and flash this without reading up about it, I should probably warn you that IT WILL DELETE WINMO FROM YOUR PHONE! Is that clear enough for you?

[Q] Help please with bootloader & SPL

Ok I'm trying to install NAND Android on my HD2 & have found a thread that I can follow but to get started I need to have SPL 1.42.0000, 1.62.0000, 1.66.0000, 2.07.0000, 2.08.0000 or 2.10.0000 installed & I had 3.03 having just debranded the phone using HSPL.
Now I know I have to use bootloader to downgrade which I have managed to do but now have "Not Allowed" come up on the screen, the phone just goes into tri colour & now shows SPL 1.42.0000.
I think I know the reason - this was a stock rom I downloaded from the HTC site & my phone is a TMobile UK so presumably I would need an SPL as above for the TMobile network to strat with? If so where can I get one from as HTC don't appear to have one on their site with the SPL numbers as above?
Many thanks
Junks
spls are not specific to any network.
run hspl4 choose 2.08.hspl, done.

Thanks Sam - Didn't realise that, I still have to get the phone to start though as I can't now get a connection to the PC as its stuck in tri colour mode with no USB
Plug in the cable, when "serial" becomes "USB" at bottom of bootloader screen, you're good to go. Forget you ever heard of an "activesync connection",,, it doesn't mean the activesync program, it means " USB connection"( using the activesync drivers)
Thanks again Sam, sorted that now & got HSPL4 loaded.
Need to put up another post now as stuck on the MAGLDR screen & cant get the NAND DAF to load!! I shouldn't have started this!

Use Clock Work Mode Recovery to flash your NAND Android ROM. Check my sig for a link to CWM. With CWM all you have to do is copy the .zip.file to your SD card and then use CWM to flash it. It is very easy this way. The thread on CWM will tell you how to flash it and all info need to know about it.
Thanks for that but I've only just managed to do the simpler method wrong & don't understand the CWM at all at the moment. Was just trying to get the easiest route for my first flash but after trying three NAND ROM's I get the same error after loading MAGLDR & running the DAF.exe
As MAGLDR is loading...........SS SD kernel open failed
Then after running the DAF.exe files

Go read the thread on CWM!!! As I said you just copy the .zip file of the ROM to your SFD card wich is how you download the ROM meaning you have to only download it nothing else. To copy it to your SD card use USB MassStg option #4 of MAGLDR but you have to have your phone connected to your computer via USB cable. To flash CWM connect your HD2 via USB and select the USB Flasher option #5 of MAGLDR then run the DAF of CWM. This will flash CWM to yor HD2. when your phone reboots keep the power button pressed down to get MAGLDR back up then select AD Recovery option #8 of MAGLDR. This will bring up CWM, then select "install zip from sdcard" then select "choos zip from sdcard" then find the .zip file that you just copied to your SD card and select it and it will flash the ROM. Oh yeah you have to use the send button to select each thing. Now what else do you not understand?
Look at my signature for links to MAGLDR and CWM.

Well I thought that seemed easy to understand TMac but.................
I intalled the cleandroid zip file but I guess since it didn't work you meant extract to the SD card (CWM didnt find the cleandroid zip file)? Also is there anyway of booting normally at the moment as I think I should charge the battery again after all this trying without success before I try again?
Thanks for your patience, I'm really not used to this sort of thing at all & at 54 yrs old I think I'm doing quite well!! lol

Clean droid is also my fav rom
Assuming that you are able to boot into MAGLDR screen and you have the Cleandroid rom in your PC.
Now, in MAGLDR screen, select menu no.5 (USB Flasher) and subsequently connect your phone ( Plug UsB to PC). On your PC, run the DAF.exe of Cleandroid rom.
If you succeed, it will reboot to android.
Before doing that, please make sure battery above 50 %, spl 2.08 HSPL and radio 2.15.xx were installed.
Good luck

Yes MAGLDR makes your phone do that. Have you been able to flash a ROM yet no? Are you making sure your going to the 'USB Flasher' in MAGLDR? Run the daf when you're there, if you're getting that error still, make sure you disable USB connections inside of ActiveSync or WMDC on Vista/7.

I would suggest you to reflash winmo from boot loader screen using micro sd in order to be able to charge battery. After that, you can retry the android flashing
Thanks - sorry if I'm a bit thick here, so does that mean I've put the phone back to original then start the whole process over again from the beginning?
You're battery should be fine while the USB is in. It won't die on you while flashing through MAGLDR. Once the USB is in.your phone it will he fine. Silly old cautious men. haha

Then tried as suggested using CWM but after getting through all stages the last bit I get CWM Recovery files not found!! I checked the SD card & the Cleandroid winrar file is there, its there zipped & now unzipped in a temp folder (which shows on the phone) & also in the root just in case..........nothing nada zippo.............files not found.
Any last ideas before I buy a Nokia?? lol
Its really frustrating, I managed to get all the way through on both routes but can't get the ROM installed either way.
Thanks
Are you able to go in to CWM by going to AD Recovery in MAGLDR? How are you trying to flash a ROM? Go in to the settings in WMDC and make sure the USB Connections is unchecked.

Sorry man did not mean to seem rude. I just wanted to make sure you tried the CWM method as it is the easiest way to me. also yes you are doing freaking awesome considering I know your age now. Not to say older folks are illiterate or stupid just some older people have a hard time grasping new new technologies. Don't worry none my friend, like member mezcal9 posted yesterday we will get you back going.

Sorry Skellyyy but yoy are wrong about this statement as you have to have a ROM runing for your battery to charge. MAGLDR does not support battery charging yet.

HD2 gone Haywire

I attempted to install Android on my HD2 by following a guide over at HD2Forums, didn't go so well I ended up screwing up the partitions and I got an error saying that the SD card wasn't detected.
I uninstalled ( or I thought I did)
Now my phone will boot up in two diff. WM7s. One has all my info and everything correct the other is a bare install like the phone was never used.
I'm not trying to remove HSPL my re-flashing a fresh ROM. I'm having no luck. I've followed the steps here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623402
My screen never turns grey, it kinda flashes like it's going to change and returns to the tri-color.
If someone would point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.
Well you started wrong! You should have read all he stickies in the XDA forums. That being said I don't know what you did but I for know that the process is first HSPL then MAGLDR then flash wp7 using MAGLDR. I don't know where you are stuck at. I believe you will lose most of your personal stuff unless you could use Zune to backup pics and video. If you have HSPL & MAGLDR you should be able to go from there if you can't even see MAGLDR HOLD DOWN POWER button to get to magldr menu. If you can't even get there then try turn off phone then power on holding the volume down button AND the power button go to tricolor screen check do you have HSPL from cotulla?

I read all the stickies on the site I was on.
However, I am running Cotulla 2011 aMagLDR v1.12
I am able to access the bootloader menu but none of the options that I am aware of will help me.
i assume you have the correct radio installed as well?
anyhow, as has been mentioned, go in to MAGLDR and use the USB flasher /update option, then run the WP7 install file from the PC make sure the SD is in your phone and is empty (it will get formatted).
now i cant remember if you do magldr then go to USB update and plug in the USB cable in at that point or plug it in first, anyhow, that should help.
If on the off chance its not being detected by the computer when you connect it to your PC then use a program called USBDVIEW, its very good for deleteing all your USB drivers and starting from scratch, very handy if things get a bit confused for it.
I dont know if this is the correct way so please correct me if I am wrong.
In your case I would do a completely clean install so do a task 29 and then everything from the beginning

You could have just searched the HTC Leo HD2 forums, but follow the link in my signature to get task29. Also, you probably should use MAGDLR 1.13 and read the "How To" of WP7 to find out the order of preparing your phone with HSPL and MAGDLR.
The thing is...reading all that you can before flashing ROM's will save a whole lot of frustrations...also keeping track of your forums on how-to do something. I save the links to all my how-to's in my browser.

[Q] HTC HD2 bricked, can load bootloader cant install any ROM

HI everyone,
This is the first time for me posting a thread here...thanks in advance.
Well I have a HTC HD2 that is a friends of mines. He was trying to change the radio so it could work in another country and managed to brick the phone. He got tired of trying to fix the phone so he gave it to me. I have tried fixing it with a tool kit I downloaded in another thread here. I managed to get it to boot butt it wouldn't get past T-Mobile screen...I kept on messing with it trying to install a ROM and different radios but non will work and wont turn on anymore but still is able to be recognize but PC(not mobile media center) and the last thing I did was task29. It stopped at 99%...still can load bootloader 3 colors but having a harder time getting the phone recognize by PC. Can anyone help me before I get into a deeper hole? If your need any more detail please ask me...btw the phone is running SPL- 3.03 HSPL in boot loader.
to the rescue !!

your friend shouldnt have flashed the radio without proper info !!
radio is the only thing which bricks the device !!!
dont worry we'll try to sort something out !!
firstly start with flashing a proper radio !!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
download the radio 2.15.50.14 from this thread and flash it !!
NOTE : if you cant flash radio from ur pc, via nbh installer or the toolkit, you can flash it from a memory card !!
just format a normal memory card, put the radio on the card, rename the radio file to LEOIMG.nbh and get to the bootloader screen !!
follow the instructions from there and flash the radio !!
secondly if you want android or wp7-7.5 on ur device !! hspl 3.03 wont work !!
so install hspl 2.08 for that !!
for winmo6.5 3.03 is ok !!
do a task 29 once and flash any rom or magldr(for android or wp7-7.5)!!
good luck .....
thanks for quick reply
I am trying to do what you instructed me.
Didn't work
I tried it on the PC and it sadly stopped @ 96%, now it wont turn on volume down+power. Battery was charged and i didn't turn off. It displayed error 262. as soon as I can I will try it on sd card. Thanks though.
I was not able to install the radio but did in fact get to task29 successfully and MAGLDR Version-1.13. Now my phone is stuck in the Stick together screen. Can anyone help me from here what should I do. thanks I will be waiting for a responce.
Do you still need help cos its really easy to unbrick your phone and I say this because once I flashed 5 different roms in 2 hours or less and my phone wouldn't even turn on and when it did it would get stuck on the tmObile splash screen and restart but I fixed it and now I'm running the best Rom out there lol... reply to this thread and I'll tell you what to do

leoimg.nbh won't start to install
Hi everyone,
I have a severe problem with my HTC HD2 after installing a NAND version of android which did not work very well, than wanting to reinstall winmob 6.5 (vodafone) it startet "loading" the leoimg.nbh from the SD-card, but than stayed in this status neverending. So I interrupted (was that the mistake?? :-( }. Now I'm able to start MAGLDR 1.13, am also able to install another NAND version, but with every version I get the message: problem with android.xxx and so on.
I can start the bootloader modus (SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE), also connect by USB, but if I try to reload any leoimg.nbh from SD card - it does nothing, just stays in the bootloader modus.
Did I destroy any hardware by interrupting the non functioning "loading"?
Please help, if you can, what I could do now to get a functioning NAND android again!
Many thanks in advance!!!
freak just try the task 29 and u might return everything to normal condition
and for future never interrupt the installation process as u can brick ur device
for the main topic, i can say that ur device is fully bricked and the only way is taking it to the service center or try flashing directly into the hardware, but thats dangerous and requires professional skills
Plz help!

Please can you help me.. I did the same thing.. it kept getting stuck at 0% and then i had to wait like an hour and then i tried again.. now its completely dead!
Please tell me what to do..
Thanks
First of all; This steps can solve your problem. But first of all(don't forget to check 2.08.HSL) try to use "Task29" and if it is success, load Radio ROM 2.15.50.14, and load original Winmo 6.5 ROM (Tmous or EU which phone do you use).
If you are stuck somewhere, then;
Download an original ROM for your HTC device from HTC webside.
- Format your SD card like FAT32 primary.
- Take "RUU_signed.nbh" from an original ROM and copy it to your SD card.
- Rename to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset your device while pressing the volume down button.
Radio ROM 2.15.50.14;
Radio ROM 2.15.50.14
HD2 Toolkit 4.2.0.1; ( contains task 29, magldr and recovery and also HSPL)

After several attempts to switch on the phone it finally turned on so I immediately installed stock ROM and it didn't get stuck on 0%.. it worked!!
Do you think I should perform a task 29 now or I can just proceed with installing a new radio and then installing a new ROM?
Thanks again mate!
Apparently I need to install SPL 2.08 before trying to install HSPL and then run android.. anyone know where I can find it?
Nevermind figured everything out Thanks anyway

If you want to change your ROM with one another like Android NAND ROM or Windows 6.5 ROM, then use this procedures.
For NAND Android ROM; You must flollow this sequence;
first check your device if it is 2.08.HSPL, and format your sdcard ext3 or ext4 and 1gb (which one you must use is pointed out by your Android chief). Copy new Android ROM into your sdcard's FAT32 section. insert it into your HTC device.
1. do task29
2. instal radio rom 2.15.50.14
3. install magldr 1.13
4. do recovery 5.0.2.6
5. do clear cache and dalvik cache.
6. Choose your android ROM .zip file on sdcard, load and enjoy...
For Windows 6.5 Follow this sequence;
first check your device if it is 2.08.HSPL, Format your sdcard like FAT 32 primary partition. insert it into your HTC device.
1. do Task29
2. Install Radio ROM 2.15.50.14
3. Run LeoCustomRUU.exe like "Run as Administrator" which Windows 6.5 rom you chose to use.

Are you booting into bootloader and connecting the device to your computer so you can get the HTC Sync connection. Just boot into bootloader by holding the volume down button down and poewering on your device. Connect it to your computer via USB and when you see Serial in the white bar of boo5tloader change to USB you have the HTC Sync connection and can flash your device.
I face a very odd problem with my HD2 EU. After years of 2 different versions of Android on nand I decided to reset it to stock(Vol down+power with leoimg.nbh in root of a FAT32 formatted microsd). When I get in bootloader mode there seem to be 2 instances of bootloader. The first 3 colour screen with all the right wordings lasts a second or two then I get a second 3 colour screen with the same wordings. With my Verbatim 8Gb class4 microsd formatted FAT32 and leoimg.nbh (obtained from the original RUU_Leo_HTC_ITA_1.66.408.1_Radio_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Signed_LEO_Ship.exe) in the root directory, the device does not recognize the file and it's not possible to restore the phone to stock, but I can only get into usb connection.
Being able to get in usb mode with the various versions of HSPL (1-2-3-4) I can still change the bootloader. With the HD2 Android toolkit 4.2.0.1 I can install cLK, Magldr, do a Task29 and repartition.
When I use the RUU installer I can install the RUU_signed.nbh that I used to get the leoimg.nbh BUT when I do it, and it does finish gracefully, on the screen that states the currently installed image THE INDICATION OF SUCH AN IMAGE IS BLANK whilst the name of the image to install is the one I am flashing.If I reflash the same image AGAIN (so I know what's on the device) the info of the installed image is never displayed.So after trying the various bootloaders HSPL and SPL and getting the same result you are my only resort.
Has anybody experienced such a problem? It is as if the the bootloader goes through a script that then starts a second "identical" bootloader (I understand that I may seem crazy) that is not capable of recognizing a leoimg.nbh. All my buttons are still working so it's definitely not a button problem. Therefore in a nutshell the question is: if I can't get the device to recognize a leoimg.nbh is there any other way to make it do so, given that I can communicate via usb without problems ?
