Bricked or?

Hi there
I got an HD2 from a friend (he bought off ebay) and seems to just boot to the Tmobile sticking together logo and won't boot.
I don't think it charges as well...
there was no lines (radio?) at the bottom of the Sticking Together pink square screen...
is this phone bricked? or can I still flash a rom?

Ok try this, turn the phone off then hold the low volume botton n the power botton at the same time, n if it takes u to the bootloader then u r good, just search on how to install a rom of ur choise, good luck

Well the fact that it will even turn on means it is not bricked. A bricked HD2 will not even turn on the most it will do is flash tihe led light and vibrait a couple of times.
Follow the instructions of the above post and pull up bootloader, if bootloader comes up you can save the HD2. Depending on if you want to flash a official srock ROM or a custom ROM to the HD2 will dictate your next step.
If you want a official stock ROM then just download and flash the official update from T-Mobile.com just type in HTC HD2 update in the search box on the home page and you will find it. You will have to enter the IMEI number to download it wich you can find this number behind the battery. To flash it connect the HD2 to a computer via USB cable while in bootloader and wait for the serial in the white bar at the bottom of the bootloader screen to change to USB and the computer to show it recognizes the HD2 then run the update utility and follow all the on screen instructions.
If you want to flash a custom ROM as in custom Windows Mobile, NAND Andriod ROM, or Windows Phone 7 ROM then you will have to flash HSPL to the HD2. Download HSPL4 and flash 2.08 HSPL if hou want to flash a NAND Andriod ROM as MAGLDR only supports 2.08 HSPL. Or a Windows Phone 7 Rom, or flash 3.03 if you just want to flash a custom Windows Mobile ROM.
Now if you want a NAND Andriod ROM or Windows Phone 7 you will have to download MAGLDR and flash it to the HD2.
If you want a custom Windows Mobile ROM download the ROM of your choice and fladh it using the .exe or RUU wich ever one the ROM has. Note do all flashing of what I have previously mentioned via the method I mentioned before.
If you are wanting to flash a NAND Andriod ROM or Windows Phone 7 ROM then download the ROM of your coice and flash it using MAGLDR and the instructions of the ROM developer in thread for the ROM.
Now this is very important. I see from the picture you have a T-Mobile(TMOUS) HD2 so no matter what you do, do not flash a ROM with a radio version that reads like these 2.04.50.xx, 2.05.50.xx, or any radio that is x.xx.51.xx they will brick/kill a TMOUS HD2.

I would recommend flashing a stock T-Mobile ROM, since that appears to be the flavor of the phone. This will install the correct radio. Once the phone is working, continue as per normal for flashing the ROM. You will have to reinstall hardspl.

thanks for the info guys! i really appreciate the support!
it seems like it won't read the USB... is the port busted?

try this:
1) download your stock ROM.
2) put it on your SD card via a card reader, you want an .NBH file.
3) rename the file LEOIMG.NBH
4) make sure the phone is off, make sure your SD card is back in your phone.
5) hold down and power
6) it should go to a tri-color screen and say something about flashing the image, hit power to confirm
7) it should flash no problems.

Have exactly the same problem with my friends phone.
Its a TMOUS and sticks on the same boot screen.
He screwed it up when trying to install Android NAND on it.
I can enter bootloader And I have managed to get rid of MAGLDR and CWM.
I have HSPL 3.03 installed on it, but when I try to install the latest ROM from TMOUS it fails at 8% and tells me that
'ERROR 290: INVALID COMMAND
This update Utility cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please check your update utility'
Tried copying the relevant file to the SD card and renaming it leoimg.nbh but the install fails HERE aswell with the error:
"RADIO_V2 - RSA Fail"
I managed to install an energyrom onto it, but it wouldnt go past the initial boot screen
Any help appreciated

Try running a Task 29 on your friends HD2. This willtotally clean out the NAND memory of the HD2 and reformat it, kinda sounds like that is what is needed to be done. He may have messed the NAND memory format up when he was trying to install the Andriod. You will have to reflash a Windows Mobile ROM after you run the Task 29 as it will not ha e a ROM on the phone then. You will not have to reflash HSPL cause it will not remove it.

It seems that the problem is RADIO related. I can task 29, and I can install The latest Energyrom, but I CANT install a radio.
There is no radio ON the phone at the minute it seems. When I try to do a radio install, it asks me if I want to go from version ' ' to the update I am using.
None of the installers see a radio on the phone, and trying to install the radio always fails at 96%. This would seem to be the same if I try to install the official TMOUS latest ROM with radio from SD Card. It fails at the radio install part.......
Maybe time for a new thread for this one.......

[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
Happen error
Read below for more information
Error Description: Config load failed.

Error Description: CONFIG: file not exist

Did you get it going Junks?
Don't panic, we can fix this

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

Thanks but tried that as posted earlier & get the happen error, now I'm not sure of the battery charge so want to charge that before trying again with CWM but can't charge it from the MAGLDR screen, tried plugging into the mains & reset but what ever I do it boots into MAGLDR & no charge

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

lol Ok I'm going to try one more time then give up!!
I have tried both methods now
Tried installing 3 different NANDS without CWM using the DAF & get the happen error with all three:
Happen error
Read below for more information
Error Description: Config load failed.
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (712)
Error Description: CONFIG: file not exist
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (346)
Tried with & without WMDC running
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.
Also do you have this, striaght from the MAGLDR OP
You need radio which support 576 RAM.

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.
*Fixed Power-Off-Cable-Plug-Stop. Phone now detects this situation and reboots. Battery controller inside LEO needs runtime control during charge, it implemented in OS.

[Q]How to revert to stock windows mobile from nothing?

I have searched and could not find a thread with the exact problem I have, I hope I did not miss it if there is one.
I tried to install android and followed this guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477 and I was in android working fine. Then I tried to install Clockwork Mod through active sync and things went completely downhill from there. Long story short I tried to flash it back to where i was and now I cannot boot into windows since it's gone and when i try to boot into android it says Fatal HIT 1 or something like that. Is there a way to put a rom onto my sdcard and flash it without having to use active sync or anything like that?
The menu I can access is the MAGLDR menu so I can do USB Flasher and such. I have tried reflashing with DFT_Android but when i get to the point to reboot it just stays on that screen and I have to pull the battery out then I am back to square 1. Now when I try to flash with DFT_Android through usb flasher I get the RSPL.cpp (723) error.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
I found a fix for the USB flasher error from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895655, I just put those 2 files in with the DFT_Android folder and ran the DAF.exe now it is flashed again but still does not restart itself. If I can get it to restart itself I can boot into android.

From what I understand you have problems with installing Android and MAGLDR, and you want to revert to your stock ROM. Here is a link read carefully instructions:
Flashing 512 LEO: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
Flashing 1024 LEO: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614

I got the We hacked it screen and now I am trying DFT_Android flash again. Thanks for the quick response hopefully it will boot into droid now if so then I will just leave it there.
Well it finished flashing but the phone did not restart, how do I fix that? Should I downgrade to an older version of MAGLDR, like 1.11 or 1.12?
EDIT: I made some progress, I got as far as the white HTC splash screen then it showed the android notification bar and a bar that said News under it and the rest of the screen was black, then the phone froze there. I pulled out the battery and tried to Boot an Nand and it said NAND Kernel load failure.

Okay I am now in android, last time I was in droid I tried to flash clockwork mod through usb since I did not have an sd card at the time and that is what messed up the phone.
The only problem now is when I flash to Hyperdroid CM7 through clockwork mod it does not boot into android it just goes to MAGLDR and when I select Boot AD NAND it says kernel failure

Quick update, I got into android and set it all up but when i reboot or turn the phone on it goes to the MAGLDR menu, how can I get it to boot straight into android?

Do you mean it loads the menu then stops on menu or loads magldr then loads Android?
If its the latter then thats what its supposed to do.

Oh I just put the battery back in and just turned the phone to see if it will boot into android and it is. lol I guess i just needed to wait little longer.
Thank you both very much

Hi Doat,
What you need to do is download a stock rom in the language your device was shipped.
* Extract the exe (right klick) and rename the RUU_Signed.nbh to LEOIMG.nbh
* Copy it to your storage card
* Put your device in bootloader (just take the battery out and in and press volume down+power off button at the same time)
* Follow the on screen instructions
That should bring you back to stock rom.
This will bring everything back to factory defaults including the SPL, so if you like to flash a custom rom after you need to flash HSPL again.
Grtz, Leo

Thanks for posting it up anyway it is good to know in case I have to revert back to stock, I really appreciate it.

Maybe I misunderstood your post, I taught you were stuck on boot with MAGLDR.

[Q] Aaaah im so in a mess please help.

Ok im now in a proper mess.
Ok ive been battling with trying to get Android on my HD2 i have manged no prob with the MAGLDR in the past but wanted to change to the CLK version.
I tried all the tried the tips etc and have downloaded the HD2 Android Nand Toolkit but i just couldnt get it working. Once i thought i did I get CLK wokring I installed the ZIP file but it just got stuck on the HTC splash screen. The only way i can it to actually boot is to put the stock Winmo ROM back on. So at the moment I have the stock ROM just with SPL. As soon as i run the Task29 option in the toolkit it then fails to load. Could somebody please advise me on what to do.

You need Hardspl from Cotulla. Search through the threads you'll find it. but if you had magldr installed you should have all the the necesary elements. using the tool kit you have to hold the volume down than power on. wait for your phone to say usb. Than proceed to task 29. Than when the screen shuts off hold the volume down again before the screen comes on. Pick your partition size, Than hit the partiton button wait for it to do its thing than hold the back key and some text should come on your phone ending with something like fastboot commands suspend. Flash the recovery. than when it go off again hold home until you get in to recovery. Hope that helps.

Cheers for the help. Ive got as far as the revovery install i had a load of text on the screen the last line of wich is 2690 --Portchange-- and the pc is sitting on waiting for device.

also this is all it does when i turn the phone on now

Have you successful installed hspl? Successfully installed magldr and successfully installed cwm?
Is the Rom your installing a magldr version? Did you get it from the Android nand thread?
Is your SD card working is it formatted to fat32?
Are you installing the Rom from SD?
Is it a .zip file?

Make sure you’ve got more than 50% power on the device.

i had came across this issue last week.
when in tri-color mode, re-install hspl 2.08 and then magldr 1.12/1.13.
then try installing wm6.5.
This worked in my case.
Check if it does in urs too...
Al the best...

after the radio, I cannot download magdlr, it stops at 29%.. Or sometimes doesn't do anything!!

I'd suggest task 29 to wipe the phone completly. Then make sure you have the correct stock rom for your phone. EG if you bought a EURO o2 HD2 then you need to have the o2 3.14 stock rom. Extract the .nbh file from the .exe.
Use SD Formatter to format your SD card, this will wipe all windows 7 partitions.
Then copy .nbh file and place it on the sd card, then boot into boot loader (tri colour screen) and follow on screen instructions. A grey screen should appear at this point.
This will remove Hard spl and restore WM 6.5 and also restore the first of the two splash screens and the radio back to factory settings and will also restore your warrently as well.

Thanks for this info, will try it. Have you got a link to task 29? Is it a software?

No but it is all over XDA. I think you'll find it someware on the WM 6.5 thread. If that doesn't work your nand will be stuffed but it has allways worked for me!

Yes, even i suggest you the "flash via micro sd card" method becoz it works in worst cases. and follow all the steps sequencely. good luck

Task29 gives an error 290 and doesn't complete.
Im getting frustrated... What can i do next

task 29 now wipes my phone but everytime i flash a new rom is crashes at 9% or 10% and then i get the error 290.
i downloaded the stock rom for my phone... argggh what can be done?
thanks

Sounds like nand is dead. Looks as if you will have to return it to get it fixed!

i must agree with ghost ... sounds like you flashed the poor baby to death :'( sad sad day! and very rare i might add!

cannot believe i messed it up.......

know where i can send it for repair? will HTC cover it under warranty? will they be suspicious?

anyone? do i need to ring my phone contract people or go directly to HTC?
Thanks

Depends how old it is. It may need to go directly to HTC to get it fixed.

I read somewhere that error [290]: Invalid Command - the ROM Update Utility has encountered communication errors during the update process.
Try changing the usb cable/connect directly to usb port (not usb hub) if you still want to use usb for flashing.
I always use the sdcard method when there's a problem flashing via usb. Rename RUU_signed.nbh (extract from stock rom exe package) to LEOIMG.nbh and copy the file to sdcard (sdcard MUST be formatted as FAT32 - use HP format tool). Put sdcard into the phone and boot into bootloader mode ... see if it works ...
