[Q] New in upgrade mobile, what do I do? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi all,
I'm brand new in the art of updating mobiles.
I would like to update my HD2 to andriod but have no idea of how I do it. I have looked at a lot of threads but it seems that I need ot know a lot about my phone before I can start!!
Can anyone help me how and where to start?! What do I need to install and how do I install it :/
My phone data:
OS version 5.2.2.1913 (21913.5.0.94)
Manila version 2.5.20181527.0
ROM version 3.14.403.2 (04666) DAN
ROM date 10/4/10
Radio version 2.15.50.14
Protocol version 15.42.50.11.U
When I press volume down and start my phone it say
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-3.03.0000 XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x50
Best regards,
Peter

Knowledge is power my friend and d answers u seek are but a click away...All u have 2 do is read, read n do more reading...follow all instructions written by devs to d letter as they were written for a reason...Wat reason?...
Avoiding errors or turning your beloved HD2 into an "Expensive Paper-Weight"....Getting android onto ur device is quite easy, u just have 2 put in d time 2 understand certain terms n how d needed softwares work...So summary?...Start reading from here. When u have properly familiarized urself with flashing then visit the HD2 android development section n check out several builds available...u must make a choice urself as we wouldn't know wat u lyk...so feel free 2 test as many as u can.
P.S. Its crucial u first perform a HSPL (2.08 HSPL) on ur fone before doing ANYTHING else.

The post above isn't really helpful. He's obviously read a lot already lol.
I know getting in to flashing and stuff on the HD2 is very confusing at the start, but once you learn it once you learn it forever.
Basically first off, you need to flash HSPL 2.08 to your phone. To do so download 'HSPL4' from these forums and flash that. Just search for it and you'll find it. It'll have instructions on how to install it on the thread which is very easy.
Just boot to SPL and connect to USB and run the .exe file inside of HSPL4 and choose 2.08.HSPL from the drop down menu.
After this you need to flash the newest radio which is 2.15.50.14. There's a sticky in all the HD2 development threads that have all the radio's. Just look in the WinMo or Android section and it'll be stickied. You basically then open the file you downloaded with the radio in it, boot to HSPL (you've just flashed HSPL over SPL) and run the RomUpdateUtility and just click on all the next and update buttons on the window that'll pop up and it will install. Obviously you need your USB cable plugged in for this too.
After that, you need to flash MAGLDR. I can't get links at the moment but you should easily be able to get a link to the MAGLDR thread and download it. After you've downloaded it to your PC, it's basically the exact same procedure as flashing a radio. Bootloader > USB connected to phone > open RomUpdateUtilty and follow instructions and flash. After this finishes installing you're basically done and all you need to do is flash your Android ROM. Just go in to the NAND Development section and chose a ROM to start from.
Another option is to flash Clockworkmod Recovery after MAGLDR.
You simply flash that by going in to MAGLDR (keep holding power/end key while phone is booting) and go to USB Flasher using your volume buttons then going in to it by the call button. Then opening the .DAF file on your PC and following the instructions and clicking next. Obviously again with your USB cable plugged in too. This is how you flash ROM's/Clockwork.
Any other problems I'd be more than happy to help with.
Just to mention too - the HD2 is very difficult to brick so don't worry about bricking your phone as I don't think there's actually a way to do it other than flashing the wrong radio if you have a TMoUS HD2 and you flash a .51 radio which you won't do as I've told you the correct radio to flash.

from the info he posted about his phone, it seems it already has the latest radio installed (2.15.50.14) I'm guessing that he's got a phone from somewhere in EU since the TMOUS came with the 2.08.50 radio, unless I'm mistaken, and there are some later models of the US hd2 that have the 2.15 radio, but anyways if the info is correct then he doesn't need to worry about the radio, he needs :

any more info go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905841
and his rom of choice. I'm sure with this info he can get to where he wants to go, good luck!

Woops my bad, didn't even read the OP info part. Well done for posting the links though as I can't at the moment.
Also about clockwork, make sure the you have the right clockwork partition for the ROM or else you'll get stuck on a boot-loop. You'll usually find the partition info in the ROM thread and then you just edit the flash.cfg file found in your clockwork folder using notepad.

Hi
Thanks a lot for all your help, it made it a lot easier for me to start )
I have now installed

I didnt do this (radio update, since as I understood I already had the right one!!??, Yes the phone is from Denmark)

Then I downloaded MGLDR and run the ROMUpdateUtility
MGLDR http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893618
BUT it say that it may take upto 10 minutes, it take below 1 minute for me... the statusbar at the host computer goes from 0 to 100% fast and the same on the phone and after that the phone restart and show "HTC" in green with white background... then it simply stops.......
What have I done wrong and how can I solve it?!
Thanks in advance for all your input.

Sometime wrong radio can cause that issue.
Make sure that the radio is 2.15.xxx.xxx.
Now, you should go into bootloader and try to flash the radio, and then restart doing task 29, flashing MAGLDR.
If you succeed, your phone will automatically bring you into MAGLDR screen.
From there you can flash Android or WP7
Good luck

I now downloaded my "old" radio version 2.15.50.14
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
It seems to complete.. didnt jump from 0% to 100% in 1 sec..... so thats good
Then the task29 seems to work as well since my ROM is clean!!
BUT agian when I romupdate MGLDR it start and complete very fast... goes from 0 to 100% within a few sec...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893618
and agian stops at the HTC startup screen.....

As extra information I can say that when I try to install MGLDR the RomUpdate state that the current image version is... blank
and that I can install Image Version 2.00.000.0
And then when I start it takes a few sec.....

What OS do you use on your PC? If it's Vista/Windows 7, you may need to run as administrator, if you haven't done so already

I have not had any problem using the programs so far.. so I guess I have all the right rights!
UPDATE:
Can it be a problem with the SD card if there are no connection or a defect card?
I get exactly the same behavior if I remove the SD card from the phone!

[TUT]MAGLDR Help[TUT]

Okay, everyone having problems seems to be steming from the same issues. One of the biggest seems to be: not reading. I read through about 22 pages, and kept seeing the same questions, most that had been answered.
Before you do anything, boot up winmo. Make sure you are at 2.80 HSPL. If you are not, download and flash it. Next make sure the winmo rom you have supports the 576mb rom. Most wont say if they do. If you arent 100% sure, search for one and flash it. I was using a dexter build, and everything worked flawless for me.
Once everything is in place, load up the winmo rom, and connect the phone to your cpu and activate winmo sync. After downloading MAGLDR to your cpu desktop, make sure the phone is still connected and in sync mode. Run DAF.exe. Let the program run through. After successful install, it will reboot into MAGLDR.
The volume rocker is up/down. Send/Green=Select/Enter. Home=Back. To load up your old android sd build go to settings and tell MAGLDR where the build is located. Note: There is an issue with loading sd builds, so most will not run correctly, if at all.
Now its time to install an Android NAND build. I used DFT's stock android build. Download it. Disconnect phone from cpu. Run the #4 option in MAGLDR by using the volume key and send/green. Run the rom update utility on the pc. When its says searching for usb, plug in the phone, and installation should continue. When its done, it should reboot and load into NAND Android.
If anything fails, start from square one. Install a stock shipped winmo rom. This will overwrite nand and HSPL. So your old NAND Android rom will be replaced, as well as your old HSPL. Re-flash the HSPL3 and continue.
Things to take note of: MAGLDR installs after the second nand check. Meaning you can change the first splash screen, not the others. I'm on US TMO HTC HD2 1024, and everything works perfectly. If you have robot voice, activate and deavtivate speaker phone, it should work. If not, reboot phone, and let it sit for about 10 minutes and it should work fine. AFter installation to retuen to MAGLDR hold the power button when turning the device on. Most importantly: READ. People arent answering your questions because they have probably already been asked and answered multiple times.
Also, see MAGLDR.nbh's posts (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5848003&postcount=19) about MTTY and task29. It seems to have helped alot of people having more cpu os dependant issues.

I understand you're trying to help people, but at least try not to feed them wrong information with typos and what not.
2.08 HSPL, not 2.80.
You're going to have new flashers pulling out their hair looking for a non existent HSPL.

[Q] HELP: Have I bricked my HD2 by installing MAGLDR1.13?

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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905841
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!

[Q] Flashing Problem

Hi all,
I would like to ask someone who are willing to lend me a hand.
Here comes the problem:
1. I wanna flash a NAND Android into my HD2 (not Tmous)
2. I have already flashed with HSPL2 with selection of 2.08 HSPL.
3. It went through to Windows Mobile again, nothing goes wrong untill when I am trying to flash with Magldr Bootloader with ROM Update Utility.
4. It went through again, after that the phone reboot itself and it should be displaying Magldr bootloader instead of HTC green logo stuck at the WHITE SCREEN.
5. I've tried several ways to solve it including soft-reset but still nothing happen with the same problem which is the green HTC logo stuck at the white screen.
6. Even Hard-reset with factory default reset I have tried, the process went through, but still the same problem again (YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT I MEANT).
7. So, I tried another LeoAdvanceRUU.exe which @HD2Owner had posted few months ago, the flashing process worked through but it stucked at the 0% with HTC logo at BLACK screen.
8. I kept on trying with another ROM or Radio Flashing again, again and again and it is still stucked at 0% !!! (GOSH !! I'm going to be crazy)
I really hope someone can help me out of this as I am very appreciate to those who are willing to help me. I need the phone to deal with my daily usage, please the 'PRO's out there.. ><
Thanks in advance.
P/S: The Tri-Color mode showed PB8100 - SS-BC

erm, I also tried to Flash the Radio ROM, but it will stucked at HTC logo with Black Screen and also 0% wont move either..
In that case double check the spl version in bootloader. Quite often people flash "2.08.0000" by mistake instead of "2.08.hspl"
(You did instal hspl before trying the radio, right? Radios news hspl too)

yea i did install the HSPL before flashing the radio and it is done with 2.08 HSPL
but what do u mean by Radios news HSPL?
when I am flashing the radio in the bootloader, I used the common flashing technique which is using the CustomRUU with the RUU_Signed.nbh file which contains Radio 2.14.50 and then the only the problem came out.
by means every ROM that I am trying to flash, It will still stuck at 0% Black Screen with HTC logo..
oops, radios NEED hspl , lol, darned predictive txt!
ok, so sounds more like usb timeout,
enter bootloader, connect usb, count to 5, run customruu.
If that still wont work, you can flash radios from sd, just like roms. Put teh ruu_signed.nbh onto sd card, renamed leoimg.nbh, reboot into bootloader, phone will see the .nbh and flash it.

erm, is the flashing will do it automatically itself ?? because I am still not able to boot into whatever OS yet. And do i need to connect the USB when the leoimg.nbh flashing if its working itself ??
no, no usb needed, put the leoimg on the sd card, card into phone, power on phone holding voldown, bootloader finds the leoimg on the card and starts the flashing process.

OK THAT'S WORKING @samsamuel !!!!!

I also assume the Radio was not flashed but i just cannot find a way to do the flash, and my troubleshooting was correct.

[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..

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

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 ?

different region ROM ?
Can you try to installing region specific ROM instead of Asia/India version. I faced similar problem last week as I bought phone in Europe (WWE version) but I was trying to update using Asia/India version.
Also, have you ever used HSPL on your phone?
Boot the device into boot loader and connect it to your computer via USB and flash HSPL 3.03 to it. Then run the RUU again.

Run RUU file with right click and choose "Run as Administrator",
or
some of your USB device like mouse may be deny your htc device
or
is your usb cable good, are you touching your usb cable during installation?

As powerthink posted above me, right click on the RUU and run it as administrator. Also just keep trying it for a while and maybe it will finish the flash. If it just will not finish the flash and keeps giving you errors. Then you can try flashing from SD card, and if that does not work you can try a earlier ROM version.

Please tell me you do not have a TMOUS HD2? If you do I am very sorry but you hard bricked your HD2. Do you see the 51 I highlighted in the radio version of the RUU you posted? You can not flash a radio with a 51 in it to a TMOUS or you will brick the device. I really wished you would have posted that before you flashed or at least clicked on my guide linked in my sig as I descuss this at the very top of my guide. I am truly sorry friend. The only thing you can do now is have the device JTAGed to fix it. If you want I can give you the contact info on someone that does this for around 40 USD plus shipping and handling.
Does your battery have charge? Did you charge it enough?
Try to use "Reset" button instead of "power" button and "Volume" button together.

Sorry powerthink, I hate it as much as anybody else. But it sounds like sattar_00977 has a TMOUS because no bootloader after a complete flash and the ROM had radio version 2.0 7.51.22_2 in it sounds like a bricked TMOUS to me.

Well first off I am glad you got your device back up and going, but I am curious how you did this, I mean when you JTAG a HD2 it puts HSPL 2.08 on it. Then you can load a ROM to the device. But you say you have SPL-2.10.0000. Did you already flash something to the device after JTAG?
Either way please do not flash a ROM with a radio version that has 51 in it like the last ROM you flashed. Also do not flash a radio version that is below 2.08.50.?? because evfen though they have a 50 in them. The radio versions below 2.08.50.?? or actually 51 radios because they were used in the TMOUS test toms.
Flash the 3.14.1 ROM from this thread, but do not ever flash the 2.01 through 2.09 ROMs from that thread. Also only flash Windows Mobile ROMs from this section of the Windows Mobile development forum.
Did you try last ROM (3.14.1) at following link?

i am afraid your phone was bricked. but still, I have a little hope
If you still have time and have patience;
Change your HSPL to 2.08.HSPL,
Choose one of them;
1. install this Android ROM which i give you now. It is not only EU version but also TMOUS version. You can use it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733649
2. You can use this ROM. it is Windows 6.5 ROM for TMOUS.
