Hey Guys
I know this is a noob question, I have never flashed a rom, do I need to have the hardspl, or is there a shorter way to just use uspl. Can someone just inform me of the shortest way to flash a rom
I have never flashed HSPL myself, and flashed more than a dozen custom ROM using USPL. The procedure depends on what ROM you have on your device, what ROM you want to flash and if you have branded or WWE device, so read this wonderful guide, follow it step by step (if you have 1.19 ROM and want to flash 1.56 based ROM) and you should be alright.
Hi it seems I am still a little confused from reading the guide
My hd is from uk and it is branded orange. It has a 1.19 rom. So please someone tell me how to flash dutty rom wm 6.5 . All I want is the easyiest way to flash a customized rom dutty for wm 6.5, knowing my hd is a virgin phone that I never flashed a rom before
everything you need is in the Wiki & in crackwhores guide.
Read it all twice and once you think you understand, read it again!
Its really is much simpler than you think.
Basically you need to flash a stock 1.54 spl before you can flash dutty's ROM otherwise you will get the greenscreen issue!
But as i say, its all here, you just have to read it yourself.

Stock ROM you need to flash first!
If i get time, i might record a video of this process so that there is something visual for all the new guys to follow!
Hi i already bricked one touch hd,with is now on the graveyard...And before i brick my second one i want to know what rom i can use.
I just uspl my rom so it says now spl-1.15.uspl
what rom can i use? And mabey it's easyer to split the rom in sections for lets say hspl roms,uspl roms spl roms because now it's a kind off a mess in the rom section...agree?
so what rom can i use now with my spl 1.15 uspl version so that i don't brick my second(new) blackstone
thnx for the answer.
ps i prefer dutch rom,but wwe is good also.
regards stef
With spl 1.15 you can only use some of the older stock roms and probably only those that are available via the htc website. You will need to put in your imei number and only if there is an upgrade can you change roms.
Any other rom (and specifically the cooked roms) will require you to go with either hspl or uspl. There are no roms that are hspl only or uspl only. The choice is up to you as to which route you want to take. Therefore there is no need to sort the roms in the forum into those categories. The only choice you need to make is do you want wm 6.1 or 6.5 and do you want manila 2.1 or 2.5. These are only choices that you can make and once you have successfully installed hspl or uspl you can try a few to see which you prefer. Read this thread VERY carefully and then read it again. If you then have any more specific questions post them there and you will get better help.
What did you do previously to brick your phone, as using hspl or uspl or even flashing the wrong rom for that matter shouldn't brick the phone?
thnx for your replay
it works now..i'ff read twice the forum.I have uspl(so no permanent spl)and flashed mikenficent rom. It works great.
on my other phone i did hspl and that worked,but at one time it did gife me a lot off trouble (starting up and wrong colors) then i send it back to htc,and it had no waranty anymore..so i didn't let it repair.Afther i get it back..it did not start att all,so i think htc did something to brick it even more.
now i wrote about the USPL and tryed that. and now it workes smouthless...
regards stef
If you had the wrong colours before then something must have gone wrong with the hspl, because that is a typical symptom of the wrong spl for the rom you were using.
But anyway at least you have gotten a new phone. Look after it now
lol..i will NEVER use hspl again..because the software is never 100% sure.
and with uspl it works like charme...
my new touch hd is the one i stole from my wife..lol and i give her a nice MDA compaq V
so she is happy and i'm happy..lol
only thin i hope is there will be one time an android rom(not the one booting with haret(ok that works but is to slow...
regards stef
The first time I flashed mine I did HSPL with Laurentius L26 from the computer (not the storage card), and then Dutty R14, and then Xannytech, and it's always worked perfectly.
Hi all,
I have an HD2 from Orange in France.
SSPL falshing works perfectly for me but there is not a single original rom that I find compatible to my device so if it should brick at the next try I have nothing to get back to.
So my first question would be how to get my hand on an Orange rom.
And it would be great if that rom would have a newer radio than 2.04 since my device has this on.
Or is there another possibility without HSPL to flash another radio newer than mine??
Thx

Install shipped ROM 1.61 with Goldcard. So you will get the new Radio. Afterwards you can install other ROMs with SSPL.
Is there no way to flash the new 1.61 ROM with SSPL, that would make life much easier ? So I will get the newest radio ? I can get the RUU_signed.nbh from the 1.61 ROM and then flash with SSPL, or will that not work ?
Edit: already found out; you can flash with SSPL, but then it won't flash the radio ...
Rom 1.61? On HTC site there is only 1.48 or am I missing something?!
See this Leo ROM Development thread, it is in there !

Hello all,
i dont know if im in the right forum if not please excuse me.
I have some question about the 1.66.407.1 Rom and the 2.07.51.22_2 Radio.
I bought a HD2 with these Rom and Radio already installed on it, if i go to the HTC support site i only can download the 1.66 rom with 1.72 radio. Is there any way to get the combination above (1.66.407.1 and 2.07.51.22_2)? I want to try the white GTX theme but if anything goes wrong i cant flash back to default rom and radio.
I found a page which is offering:
RUU_Leo_HTC_GER_1.66.407.1_Radio_CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship.exe
and
RUU_Leo_HTC_GER_1.66.407.1_Radio_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Signed_LEO_Ship.exe
but which do i need the CRC signed or not? And what does CRC signed mean?
Thanks in advice

The links you referred are for german Language. and to install any other Stock/Custom rom on your Hd2 you must have hspl2 installed on it first. check out for your choice of rom from many chef's available here. and flash it Simple using USB Sync process.
And if you want to go back to your stock rom . Then make a dump of your stock rom and flash it thru SD card. it will restore your hd2 OS back to the state as it comes from factory with original SPL.
for more information Search Forum.
Note: Installing Rom with Spl 2.10 or above( if any in future )Thru SD card will make your hd2 Lock to SPL 2.10 only. You Cannot Degrade SPL version. TRY ONLY USB. it is better and Good option to flash.

I also use NIS 2011. I dont have that kind of problem.
I downloaded but I havent flashed it becoz I am affraid that I might not be able to flash any custom rom any more..
Cheers
Thanks for prompt info, however upon keying in my HD2 serial no, it says the software is not suitable for my mobile. Would you suggest I should still try with other links available and upgrade it (for Singapore). Many thanks.

Yes you should download from the Singapore page as the ROM at the HK site is for CHT whereas Singapore is either CHS or WWE.
I've have been running the HK 1.72.831.1 ROM for ages, then i decided to flash to this ROM, been using it for the last week, and for my HD2, this ROM is a pile of sh*t
issue's i've dicsovered so far
1. issues with launching video from album view, issues range from no video playback, to radio buttons disappear at bottom of screen....never had these issue wth 1.72.831.1 when playing the same videos
2. consumes lots of RAM ( 80-90 % ), compared to 1.72 ( 40-70ish% ), so much so that applications will fail, intermittant usage of opera for example.
It's a pitty, cause overall this ROM is much more responsive, and the radio seems more responsive too ( eg enable/disable wifi etc... )
Looks like i'll be rolling back to 1.72.831.1

Sir like mention almost everywhere; Stock ROM 3.14 isn't compatible with HSPL!
You need to remove HSPL before installing stock ROM 3.14! If you don't do it the above mentioned problems are normal!

Hi,
I just wanna share my experience.I just flashed the Stock ROM after many times consideration. I felt that no increase in term of speed [I used to flash Energy as a benchmark of ROM speed ] I mean it was slower than any cooked ROM. So I decided to go back to Cooked ROM. Now, I am using Carnage HD v.4.2 which is faster than the stock ROM.
In flashing the stock ROM, I had to remove HSPL2 by way of running HSPL2 from my PC (Win XP Pro SP3) and choose SPL 1.66. I succeeded, then I flashed the stock ROM also from my PC.
In flashing back to Cooked ROM, I use SSPL. First attempt, my PC got crashed (BSOD), I wasnt sure the reason of which. The second attempt, I succeeded.
Now I have SPL 3.03 in my HD2. I read that few users reported that they can downgrade the SPL. I am not sure whether it is safe. I need time to think about it.
Cheers....

You can downgrade your spl version from 3.03 by flashing a older stock Rom.

Thanks for the info . How did you do it, by SD card or active sync method?

After I flashed this ROM to my phone, upgrading it to any Artemis ROM via SSPL would load HSPL 1.42 instead of 3.03. Also, I've had problems with Artemis ROMS after flashing to this stock ROM, such as stuck on HTC boot screen or soft reset becoming hard resets. Could it be a problem with the HSPL? How do I make sure that it loads HSPL 3.03 when flashing Artemis instead of 1.42?

Sir if you take some time to read the installation instructions on the Artemis Rom thread you will see that you need to remove HSPL if you used 3.14 stock Rom based Rom's.
HSPL isn't compatible with stock ROM 3.14!!

I have never installed HSPL. All I have had are stock Roms. How do I remove HSPL? I've already done a stock rom reflash.
