I have Tmobile as my carrier but ever since I changed my Rom i have a problem with the phone calls breaking up. Either i cant hear what they saying or most of the time they cant hear what I am saying. Ive changed the Rom a few times thinking that is the problem but seems to carry on, no matter what Rom i have. If anyone could help me with this problem would be great.
OMG try a different radio! If you don't know how to flash a radio then go and... what?
If it still doesn't work maybe you're in a bad area!
Ok so its a radio problem, which radio is the best to install and how do i reinstall a radio. On my phone right now - MAGLDR 1.13 Radio is SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE CotullaHSPL I've also got ClockworkMod v1.3 installed. A step by step info would be great. Sorry im a noob =(.... been trying to read up.
here is a radio thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787 and heres another talking about TMOUS HD2 USA 1024 forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669733 give it some reading, most people are saying that Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14** is working best. i am using that radio and its just fine for me.
now how to install, power off your phone, while holding the volume down button power on phone and keep holding volume button, you should be at a tricolor (bootloader) screen, plug in your usb cord and flash your new radio just like you did with HSPL 2.08 and MAGLDR by running the CustomRUU.exe file with the radio of your choice. make sure you dont flash a radio with the number *.**. 51.** in it or you can brick your phone.

Hi all,
New to posting here so hope this is the right place if not my appologies.
In desperate need of help, my first attempt today to try & install NAND Android to my HTC HD2 on T-Mobile (UK) and i'm affraid to say that things havent gone to plan.
The origional stock ROM from HTC website was:
RUU_Leo_S_TMO_UK_3.14.110.1_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship
But I read that HSPL3 wasn't compatible with this ROM so I downgraded the ROM with an earlier stock ROM from HTC website:
_HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_TMO_UK_1.72.110.4_Radio_CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship
I then installed HSPL3 via a Windows7 machine making sure to Run as Admin, all went smoothly no problem there got the display msg on screen saying We craked it! etc.
I then installed DFT MAGLDR113 by making sure I was connected via Device management/active sync went through the ROM update again no issue took around 30secs or so to go from 0-100% and completed successfully.
Now here is where the problem begins as when I try to boot into MAGLDR by powering on the device and continuing to hold the power button all I get is a pink circle which freezes, with no MAGLDR boot options so im no stuck in limbo.
When I power up the device holding volume down rocker key I get the RGBW coloured screen with the following info:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0X05
CotullaHSPL 0X40
and in the white layer it says Serial and when I do it connected to USB it says USB.
If some body would be so kind as to help a nooby out that would be awesome as currently my does nothing more than the above. As mentioned before im new to posting here so tried to provide as much info as possible but if you need anymore info please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Problems solved!
Did Task29 then re-flashed the stock rom from HTC bootloader, then installed Radio:2.15.50.14 & then re-installed MAGLDR powered off then on again and MAGLDR now loads and allows me to flash DFT NAND Android to my HTC HD2.
However I have now stumbled upn another issue, and is the only issue I have found sofar is that the sound when calling/receiving calls is very tinny and when the person on the other end talks it sounds like the person has swallowed Helium and has bee put in to fastforward anyone know of a fix for this?

Try making a call, put it on loudspeaker, end it, then call again, should fix it
Can someone please help. I went to the sticky thread to get all info to install android
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
My system information is:
ROM Version 3.14.531.1
Radio Version 2.15.50.14
I started with loading HSPL on my phone being my radio is 2.15.50.14 which is a requirement for HSPL4. When I install HSPL I connect my phone via sync and the computer detects it and runs through the install. It even shows the "We Hacked It" screen on my phone as its supposed to but when I hold volume down and the power button my phone doesn't show HSPL 2.08, I only see SPL-2.10.0000 8G XE
When I tried to continue loading Magldr from there I get an error and I can't go any farther. Can someone please help, how do I get HSPL to actually load which will allow me to load Magldr.
Thanks

What error do you get?
Try manually going into bootloader by holding down the Volume Down button and then powering on phone (still holding volume down).
Then plug in USB and load up MAGLDR DFT flasher.
Thanks TheATHEiST
However I can't get to the bootloader page. I corrected my previous post when I hold the volume button and power button down I get the four color screen that only shows the SPL version I have. I don't know why the HSPL flash doesn't work.
Ok guys so I could use some help here. I bought a new (used) HD2 yesterday. It is the TMOUS version and I am having every problem I could possibly imagine with it. When I bought it the phone would only boot to the pink T-Mobile screen. It wouldn't go any further than that. I have been able to succesfully able to boot it into the 3 color bootloader screen and am able to flash HSPL using the HSPL4 program. I have successfully flashed both 2.08 and 3.03 HSPL. One time I was even able to flash MAGLDR 1.13 but when it booted into MAGLDR it only showed a black screen with MAGLDR at the top. It didn't give me any options to do anything. I believe that it is because MAGLDR only works with radio 2.15 from what I have read, but I can't seem to get that radio or any other for that matter to flash to the phone. It gets stuck at 96% then I get a connection error. I have no idea what radio it currently has or had as I have done a task 29 a couple of times and it flashes correctly but doesn't change anything. I have tried it on two different computers using 2 different operating systems (XP, WIN7). I have searched until my eyes bleed and done everything I can think of I have been working on this for a little over 12 hours now and I am ready to throw this phone against the wall, so could someone please help me save my sanity and get this thing working or at least tell me that I am SOL and nothing I can do will fix it.
Edit well now I think it is officially bricked. I tried flashing Radio Leo 2.15.50.14 that I got from DFT_LEO70_RELEASE and it stopped at 16%. The recovery wizard came up and I did exactly what it said and now the phone won' reboot into the bootloader or do anything for that matter.
if you get the 3 colour screen then it likely the phone will work, you need to start from scratch
use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
I would task 29 then instal a stock rom, if that works and it should providing you have not installed an incorrect radio, then consider a custom rom
Have you tried pressing and holdingthe up and down Volume buttons and then press the power button?
The 2.15.50.14 would not normaly brick the phone iirc
time patience and following the instructions is what you need, Good luck
Hi everyone! After checking the forum on possible quirks that can be encountered when installing MAGLDR I hope someone can help me with the following:
I am trying to install Android on the HD2 via full-NAND-flash (i.e. directly via USB without SD card). I read tons of webpages and I believe I understood the necessary steps. Check the SPL; Install Hspl; Install MAGLDR; etc.
I tried to install MAGLDR 1.13 and everything went nice and quick: 100% complete on the phone; 100% complete on the PC; click on finish; phone reboot .......... and now the HD2 does not go past the green-on-white HTC splash screen. No boot.
I can still acess the colour-striped bootloader, which reacts if I connect the USB cable. No more.
What have I done wrong? Can it be recovered?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
You need to do a bit more reading (it's fundamental). Flashing MAGLDR is only the first step in getting Android on NAND. Next, you'll need to flash CWM and if you're going to install Android, you are going to have to have an SD card.
It's clear you read enough to get as far as you have. I suggest doing a bit more.
Start here:

Thanks but I don't think I can do much more at this point. The phone seems to be stuck (see my initial post). Cheers,
Did you try holding the Red power button down while the phone was powering up? That should take you into the Magldr menu.
Also, since you say you can get into the bootloader, have you tried reflashing Magldr?
Yes, I did. However, in the flash window, where you should see you are going from ROM version X to ROM version Y, this information does not show. The flash process seems to go through normally but then the situation is the same one.
The bootloader I can access is the normal one, with the red-green-blue stripes: it shows:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x30
On the bottom it reads "serial" and if I connect the USB cable it changes to "USB".
Do a task 29.
Flash radio 2.15
reflash magldr
Hope this helps

I think this is the case sensitive for the OP explained symptoms.
Flash 2.15 or any Radio Rom that supports 576MB.
I have used Task29+radio 2.15.50.14, the doloop file repackaged by shadrac.....
So in principle the radio should be the correct one.
Shall I try with the separate flashes? Would you please let me have the links to download them?
(beginning to despair.....)
Thanks
Use HD2 Toolkit to re-flash MAGLDR 1.13... easiest and most comprehensive tools.. If u still stuck, re-install WM ROM (better custom ROM since u want to install AD NAND) this w keep ur HSPL. Once u are back to WM, repeat the whole cycle use the kit (pls confirm ur Radio 2.xx.50.xx (above 2.07.50.xx) and not the .51.
gd luck
Norton 360 doesn't like the HD2 tkit...
Any idea why Norton 360 discards the download telling me the HD2 Toolkit is a threat? That's odd...... the download link comes from this very site.
Anyone else with the same experience? Cheers!
I recently bought a second hand HTC HD2, and after asking via email the seller said he has previously flashed an Android rom, and he says he's rooted it. However he hasn't told me whether it was installed by NAND or SD etc, so I'm not sure if it has HARDSPL 2.08 which is what I need to install the Android ROM I want. I don't want to install hardspl 2.08 again because it might brick my phone? so any way to check for hardspl 2.08? My phone is currently running WM 6.5
Also, how do you check the radio version on WM6.5, because I'll also need to make sure my radio rom is compatible with the android rom..
and if I do install the same radio rom twice will it brick my phone?
thanks
phone down
hold voldown
tap n release power
keep holding voldown
when stripey screen appears, there is a line marked spl.
as for radio, when you start booting, a screen appears with small text in teh lower corner, R,G,D, thats the rom radio and protocol version
however for simplicity, just flash them, they take seconds to flash.
put phone into bootloader
connect to usb
run hspl4 - choose 2.08.hspl
phone back into bootloader
connect usb
flash radio 2.15.50
good to go.
thanks, but I thought if you installed hspl twice then you'll brick your phone, and I wasn't so sure about the radio part. So it's safe to install HSPL and the radio rom again?
yep, dunno where you heard that, but maybe its regarding a different phone?
