HD2 wont allow me to flash anything, was running Android NAND - HD2 General

HELP my HD2 wont let me flash anything to it
What happened was, the phone froze so i turned back on and it just loads a white screen and thats it.
i can get to the boot loader, but nothing will flash to it and it wont boot/install the the stock rom from SD CARD. a bunch of red numbers come up then it goes back to the boot loader.
is it dead?

Remove the battery for 3 minutes and replace...then press power button (red) without letting go until you get in to MGLDR screen.

hi, thank for the advice...gave it ago and nothing, just a white screen

when you hold down and get into bootloader, you're saying you can't flash the stock ROM via RUU?
what happens?
are you 100% sure it's the right stock rom?
I would flash task29 via RUU, then try a ROM again (doesn't have to be stock if HSPL is on there)
on the "red numbers" does it give an SPL version?

i tried a task29 and it just sits on 0%
SPL version is 2.08 HSPL 8G XE
nothing will go to it, when trying to flash via usb it goes into recovery mode on the pc (the RUU program)
when via SD card it goes to loading...
then 00068002 in red pops up then it goes back to the loader (Serial) at the bottom
im stumped

run HSPL4 and uninstall HSPL, then try stock ROM again via official ROM,
you can also try flashing SPL 3.03 via HSPL4, then trying a winmo ROM.

same problem with my phone, but I got it fixed:

Hi, i was going to upgrade to ArtemisV9 from Artemis v8. Had some stability problems with v8 so I thought making task 28 with MTTY. When I tried to flash artemis from the bootloader after that , the bar stayed at 0% so I had to cancel. Have tried flashing both via USB and from the storage card, but the progress bar never goes past 0%. When I start the phone it is stuck with the picture with hTc. Please help
task 28 or 29?
as far as i know task 29 also removes the radio. try flashing a radio rom first and after flash the rom.

Thanks, but i have tried to flash the radio again but i will not work. I meant task 29. When I try to flash radio/rom the black screen with hTc and progresbar appears but i will not start. When I start the telephone the wihite screen with green hTc stucks, if I press vol down and reset the bootloader starts. Active sync can´t connect with the telephone, is this necesarry if you flash from bootloader?
it's neccessary full stop! there's your issue. This is how I flash the HD2:
1. Task29 & radio
2. Boot into bootloader
3. flash ROM once it says 'USB'
4. boot first time
5. hard reset
6. set phone up
All works fine

I renamed the radio to LEOIMG.nbh and put it on my storage card, tried mtty again and then tried to enter bootloader, a white screen with Loading appears but gets stuck. I tried to renamed artemis to LEOIMG.nbh with the same result. If I tries to flash with USB, the black screen with progressbar appears and gets stuck at 0%. I have tried to flash stock rom with same result both with the exe file and I tried to extreact the nbh file and placed it on the storage card. Any suggestions how to get my phone to work.
Please
No one that have any suggestions? Is it possible that I have crashed the phone and that its not possibly to get any rom to work? I have Hspl so the warranty is gone.
with phone in bootloader mode.
what spl does it show exactly?
when you connect the usb cable, the word serial changes to usb, correct?
is your phone provider locked, and if so do you have the correct provider stock rom available?
do you have file extensions visible on your pc? (it isn't unknown for people to rename the nbh to "leoimg.nbh.nbh" by mistake.)
when it sticks on the white screen are there any numbers at the bottom of the screen?

Thank you, Im realy desperate.
SPL-2.08.0000 8G XE
Yes when Iconnect the serial changes to usb.
No it´s not provider locked
No, the filename is LEOIMG.nbh (if I take away .nbh it only says file and nothing happens from bootloader)
Now I renamed Artemis v9 to LEOIMG.nbh started the bootloader. A White screen with blue text Loading ... nothing more
ok, so you have spl 2.08.0000 which isn't hspl so the cooked roms don't work. . . and spl 2.08 won't let itself be downgraded by stock rom flash so they won't work.
connect to usb in bootloader
run hspl2
choose 2.08.hspl NOT 2.08.0000 in the list.
return to bootloader mode
should now say spl 2.08.hspl
flash your rom over usb
if it doesn't boot check radio

Freeze on HTC logo after MAGLDR install

Hi there! I have a problem after install MAGLDR :/ I connected my HD2 to computer with ActiveSync, runned ROMUpdateUtility from computer, on my phone there was a tricolour screen, then self-reset and phone is freezing on white HTC LOGO. I tried to turn off my phone, remove battery... I'm also turning my phone on with press vol down + power - I have 3 colour screen and now what? PLEASE HELP!
Connect your HD2 to your laptop/pc... boot it while pressing volume down.. wait untill it says usb in the bottom of your screen. Now you can flash HSPL 2.08 and flash a custom or original rom.
I had the same.. gonna stick with RAM roms untill this is nand stuff is sorted out
I have the same problem... but after reflash HSPL 2.08 there will be no change. Could not start the machine.
How can flash rom from pc without booting the machine?
I couldn't understand "Now you can flash HSPL 2.08 and flash a custom or original rom." the second step ...
solved!
I had the same problem.
The issue it's the radio.
install 2.15.50.14
http://www.multiupload.com/QP0IWGY42F
Hi,
After installing hspl 2.08 and then going on to install magdlr, when successful and rebooting it just stayed on the HTC logo screen. It wont reset but it will enter into bootloader. How exactly do i fix this. I tried reinstalling HSPL but it is still stuck on that screen. How would i change this 'problematic radio'?
I relly need to fix my phone so any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Download a compatible radio (eg 2.15.50 in post above), boot to bootloader (switch off, vol down + power on (keep holding vol down until it boots), connect to pc and when usb shows on screen run the CustomRUU.exe in the radio download. (if there isn't one included you can take any one from a custom wm rom). You flash the radio the same way that you flash a rom.
Thanks for the quick response! I have tried doing this before and just tried the custom RUU posted above but when i run it where it says the image thats on the phone it is blank. Even so i click to update it and both on the phone and pc it stays at 0%. I don't know what to do!

Are you sure you have HSPL installed properly. In bootloader mode, check the spl version - it should show as 2.08.hspl, not 2.08.0000 or any other hspl version.
In bootloader mode it says SPL 2.08.0000? When installing it i did select the HSPL 2.08?? What should i do? Thanks

I had your problem and for some reason when I first ran hspl the first time and put 2.08 on my phone it said it worked but it didn't actually do anything.
Just reinstall 2.08 HSPL on your phone and then run MAGLDR.
Similar Scenario
I installed 2.08.HSPL - confirm at boot loader screen
I installed MAGLDR 1.13 with success
Flashed HD2_Core_Droid_Desire_HD_V1.5_NAND_ONLY_LEO1024_TMOUS to my phone with success
Phone worked fine for about a day and a half and froze up
Pulled battery and restarted to white screen
I can't seem to roll back the SPL, reinstall the MAGLDR, or install a different radio.
ROM Update Utility appears to start to work and phone restarts and I get an error message that the image is corrupt.
Any ideas?

[Q] Bricked?

So guys I need help! I can't boot my phone! I can boot in to HSPL but that's about it. I can't boot in to MAGLDR. I tried running a Task29 but it just stays at 0%.
I've tried flashing MAGLDR and it's the same as the Task29... stays at 0%. Has my phone been bricked? Any help appreciated. I've tried flashing a stock ROM from SD and renaming the .nbh to LEOIMG.nbh but the first time I did it and it says to press power to confirm you want to flash it the phone just rebooted to the WSOD. Seems as though that changed my HSPL to HSPL.2.08.0000 now too instead of .HSPL. now all I get when I have the SD card in and boot to HSPL then when it boots to the grey coloured screen it just says "Loading...".
Is there anyway I can get my phone working again? Thanks.
Try to flash WM 6.5 1.66 version (or atleast the one below the most recent) trough SD method.
My kid brother had the same thing, the newest ROM (from HTC website) didnt work cause it gave a error.
If you keep getting some red error status while doing the SD flash, it might be bricked.
After a few tries with the SD method we were able to flash stock spl and such, but still the phone wasnt oke (but oke enough to send it for repair).

Just so you know, when you start a stock rom sd card flash, the first thing it does is reset the spl, THEN it tries to flash the rom, two seperate events, (the phone even restarts in some instances between changing spl and starting the rom flash) so even if the flash fails, or doesnt even start, theres a good chance spl has already been removed.
(side note for info - This situation is most likely to happen when flashing stock from sd card when hspl is installed, because the rom doesnt get rejected at first because hspl is there, but after the spl is reset and teh phone reenters bootloader, it no longer accepts the rom, because hspl is gone, so the phone is temporarily locked up with no hspl and no working rom.)
So, you now have stock spl 2.08.0000 and a non working rom.
enter bootloader,
run hspl (new hspl4 link in my sig)
choose 2.08.hspl
re enter bootloader
flash magldr (just to be sure its there)
if you need to, make sure your radio is high enough version (if you have tmous forget this, if its a regular it needs to be in the 2.10.50 or so version or higher)
from power off, start the phone, as the very first splash screen changes to the black magldr screen, start pressing power, untill the menu items appear.
Job done.
Oh and the line "....I have the SD card in and boot to HSPL ......" makes no sense. You are booting to bootloader. its still bootloader whether it has spl or hspl. Your terminoligy will confuse you.
Well I highly doubt I did. Maybe it just updated the HSPL but that's all. Didn't even get rid of MAGLDR on my phone! When I held in the reset button, it booted straight to MAGLDR.
Maybe mine was just a fluke!
lol thats what i said, in a long winded way. when you run an sd card flash the first three or four seconds it loads the spl from the rom on the sd card, thus removing hspl.
(or in your incorrect words 'Maybe it just updated the HSPL but that's all' - correct, it 'updated' HSPL back to stock SPL)
but hey,its sorted, so no problem.
It's still HSPL though? It's just the previous version that's .0000 instead of .HSPL or am I completely off? Do I need to flash HSPL.2.08.HSPL again or can i just keep it .0000?
Lol I'm stupid. Sorry, realise now what you're saying now that I've looked at the SPL properly. So do you suggest I flash HSPL now?
Sent from my FutureShocks HD2 MIUI using XDA App
Lol,
One simple rule...
If it ends 0000 it is STOCK
If it ends .hspl it is hspl
Yes, run hspl.exe again, choose 2.08.hspl
Haha well atleast I've learned now. I don't even read the first part which just said SPL. Fail. If I flash HSPL again do I need to flash MAGLDR again?
Sent from my FutureShocks HD2 MIUI using XDA App
possibly, cos teh same sd card flash that wiped hspl could have also removed the second splash screen memory area, which is where magldr lives. deopends how far thru the flash it got before it stopped.
easy to tell tho, let it boot, if you see the black magldr screen appear when the first boot screen vanishes,, quickly press power and it will stop there and show the magldr menu, if it hangs without showing teh magldr screen, magldrs not there, and you pull the battery, into bootloader, flash magldr.

You will still need 2.08.hspl if you want to reinstall or update your magldr version at some stage. It wont work on 2.08.0000.

Sounds to me like you arent rpessing quick enough. keep holding power from the moment you power on if it helps.
the instructions are to hold power (end key) right from turning on until magldr menu appears, but for me, i watch the first splash screen, and just before it ends (6-7 seconds) only then do i press and hold the end key. do not let go of the end key until teh menu appears, else it will continue to boto the rom.
Oh so all you wanted to know is if I can boot to MAGLDR menu? Yeah, I can lol.
Wait a minute, you can't have MAGLDR unless you have HSPL (HSPL3 2.08) if you have just reflashed HSPL, That means you still don't have MAGLDR, unless you have flashed it already in which case you still don't have a working ROM (Android or Windows 7) until such time you chose an Android or Windows 7 build. confusing?
Here is the sequence of flash events.
1. HSPL3 - 2.08HSPL
2. MAGLDR 1.13
3. Flash your chosen ROM.

Loading Stock Rom

OK, so i am trying to load the stock rom back on my old HD2 to send back to t-mobile.
My phone has a broken flex cable going to the bottom buttons so i cannot hit the power button.
I downloaded the stock rom from t-mobile and have it both on sd card and on computer.
I can boot the phone to the point where it wants me to load the rom from SD card, i just cannot hit the power button to accept.
So i tried to do it from the computer. when i do, it just hangs at 8%.
Does anyone have any idea how I can put stock rom back on it?
Hold your volume down button down while you power,on your HD2. When you see the multicolor bootloader screen come up connect your USB cable to the HD2 and computer. Wait for the Serial in the white bar of bootloader to change to USB then run the RUU for the T-Mobile ROM. After you have flashed the ROM download HSPL 4 (linked in my sig) and run it but select SPL 3.03.0000 when it asks what version you want to flash. When you are done runningvthe HSPL utility boot into bootloader again to make sure you have SPL -3.03.0000. If you do and you should ypu are good for warranty.

Don't you understand? You don't need the stock ROM, once you have the stock SPL you -should- be fine. Go to the tri-Color screen and download HSPL4 on your PC and run it and choose 3.03.0000 (not HSPL) and click next and it should flash. If you've done that then you're ready to send it off for warranty. No need for stock ROM. Just change the HSPL to SPL again which TMagnolia and I just told you how to do.
Oh yeah and you can easily get to the tri-color by plugging the USB in and holding the Vol down button.

I think they do not have a stock ROM on the HD2 and I was stupid and did not realize they probably already had HSPL on thier HD2. So they are not good to go for warranty just yet.
At the OP try right clicking on the RUU and select run as administrator. Also try different USB ports too that might help.

I would still try to get the stock ROM on the HD2 before sending it in cause I can assure you if they will turn the phome on and check the ROM and SPL. and if they have SPL 3.03.000 and not SPL 2.10.0000 they will say why iscthat cause it looks like they were tring to update the phone and sould not have SPL 3.03.0000. Then they will probably say they either did not preform the flash correctly or had un approved software on the phone and will not pass it as warranty.

Yes that is the RUU, right click it and select run as adminastrator, Skellyyy is right too you need to use the HSPL 4 Utility to reset your HSPL to SPL 3.03.0000 if you get the ROM to flash

[Q]Help: is this HD2 dead?

First, sorry if I post the kind of question that has been already asked 1000 times, I'll understand if my post is deleted.
here is the story: I still have an HD2, but got a Sensation almost one year ago.
Now my HD2 is still WinMo 6.5 with Android from the SD card.
Yesterday, one of my pupils (yes, I'm a teacher, and my pupils know I'm into smartphones....!) gave me his HD2 because his father kinda bricked it.
I haven't been using my HD2 or reading XDA HD2 section or a long time (I'm too busy flashing my Sensation, so reading Sensation threads ), but I thought I could give it a try to unbrick it, I'm not a noob after all (selfish guy!!!!!!!!!)
I think this HD2 was somehow bricked while trying to install Android into NAND, or installing MAGDLR, as far as my pupil can tell from his dad
So this Sensation can't boot and has this, written in the 3 colours screen
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.00 8G XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
icroP(TOUCH) 0x40
Upgrade ROM code error
Please try again

Click to collapse
Here is the state I had this HD2, unable to boot, just able to get into bootloader with the message above.
I tried to flash latest Dutty ROM (because I was using Dutty creme of the creme at my HD2 time!)
=> through USB, flash freezes sometimes at 2%, sometimes 75%
=> through SD card: it flashes, says it's successful, but the device doesn't boot, back to three colors screen, or white screen with error message if trying to boot normally
I tried task29: full of errors, not better after flashing a ROM
I tried flashing a shipped "official" ROM => same as custom ROM, says success, flashed through SD card, but never boots to something else than 3 colors screen..
I tried factory reset, said successful, but still no boot!!
I tried flashing a Radio ROM=> flash successful, but still no boot
I tried flashing HSPL again, 2.08 and previous versions: it flashes OK, can see the changes in three colours screen, but no success flashing a ROM after
I noticed that sometimes, this HD2 vibrates 7 times quickly in a row, which my own HD2 had never done, and I suppose it's a very bad signal
I'm not a noob at all, but really can't follow every thread, and tried the search function with no real luck.
Is this HD2 definitly bricked? Is there something I can do?
Sorry again to seem so noob, I would have flammed someone posting like me, when I was following HD2 development everyday, before having my Sensation (and a Moto Defy for my wife)
see the line ''SPL-2.08.00 8G XE'' (you actually mean 2.08.0000) well teh .0000 tells you its NOT hspl, its a stock spl, so nothing will flash.
run hspl 2,3 or 4 and choose ''2.08.hspl''. Flashing, task29, magldr, all that will now flash.
THANKS!
how stupide I am (or too long away from WinMo)
I had tried hspl2 that was unable to do the job, hspl4 did it
So now I have spl 2.08.hspl
...but face other problem:
task29 fails: it launches OK but my HD2 disconnects from USB as soon as task29 starts its process
if I try to flash a custom ROM (the dutty one my own HD2 is still using), via usb, same, usb disconnects (it wasn't before I flashes hspl 2.08)
If I try flashing as a LEOIMG with microSD, it feezes at about 2/3 of the process
trying to flash a shipped ROM leads to errors, back to three colors screen with "Upgrade ROM code error Please try again"
...not to mention each time it replaces the hspl by stock spl
Any idea?

don't run flashes from running winmo, enter bootloader manually, when serial --> usb, run your flash/task29 or whatever. (Gorget about task29, it isnt necessary)
alternatively, if you do run it from running winmo, then once the phone has restarted and the usb has timed out, simply run teh flash program again, and dont touch teh phone, since it will now be in bootloader, and my above note takes over.

not a good sign, but ignore that for now.

because that's the way to remove hspl, , flash a stock rom from sd. Step 1 of sd flashing is the spl gets flashed, removing hspl, the phone then restarts and tries to flash the stock rom, but now that hspl has gone it fails, since you aren't using the correct stock rom for that particular phone.
Try this, get the stock 3.14 rom ( filename will be RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship )
EDIT - you dont have a tmous, right? if you do, dont do this!)
phone into bootloader
use hspl4 to set 3.03.hspl
phone into bootloader
flash the 3.14 rom over usb.
report back.
Man, I'm on the good way!
3.03.hspl seems to be the key, when 20.8hspl wasn't
While the stock 3.14 ROM finished to download, I could run a Task29 till the end, no more USB disconnecting.
Crossing fingers!
I'll edit this post once I've tried to flash the stock 3.14 ROM
Huge thanks to you !!!!
2.x spl is not a stock spl for regular hd2's, only tmous, so whilst it does work, it does introduce the odd problem. for example you cant sd flash stock roms with 1.x versions when you are currently on 2.x.
SO, with a regular hd2, any time you wanna return to stock or are having flashing troubles of some kind, it is always worth using hspl.exe (2,3 or 4 , doesnt matter) to remove the 2.x spl/hspl.
For me, I always go back to 1.66.0000 using hspl2 before i even try to flash a stock rom. Since i choose a 0000 ending, it will be updated as required by the stock rom.
Fingers crossed it helped.
