Start from the begining.
No need to reflash HSPL 2.08 nor Radio
Task 29
MAGLDR or cLK
ClockWorkMod recovery. In recovery go Storage and mount and format all partitions (just in case) except ofcourse recovery.
Flash ROM from recovery.
And tell us how it did go and when exactly (if) stuck.

thx btw, havent done task29...
we'll see

seems to task29 did the job to me
didnt realize thats just zo damn important
wel, thanks

help needed problem while flashing the wp7 rom

hi guys i hvae flashed wp7 rom on hd2 tmo i have done every thing that is needed to run the wp7 but when ever i boot it stucks on htc logo boot screen please help
does any one has answer for it help guys i m waiting
Did you really follow everything step by step?
With the problem you describe, people usually forgot to flash the correct HSPL or Radio ROM.
It must be 2.08.HSPL and Radio ROM 2.15.50.xx, before installing MAGLDR 1.13.
Sometimes, incompatible SD cards make trouble, too.

i tried but its still the same i tried flashing it with three diff memory card but it still stuck on htc boot screen
TMOUS?
If you've got the "other" (US 1024) HD2 you might have properly screwed your phone up
If you've got the European (512) non-TMOUS version then you've done something wrong on one of the steps. No more than pointers here though. You will have to search for yourself in the Development Pages.
1.HSPL
2.Correct Radio
3.MagLdr
4.ROM
In any case this Forum will help solve your issues.

i did every thing i m using tmo usa i did t9,hspl,correct radio,magldr,and try to install 3 roms all the roms stucking at boot screen i also tried to change the sd cards but still the same results i m try to solve it from past 3 days guys help me
Stickies
Read the stickies in development forum. I think you need seperate ROMs for TMOUS. Maybe also different HSPL, and MagLdr. I don't know what you flashed or what you should have flashed, so you need to read everything the people in the know have written.
Stuck on HTC screen as well!
I have tried it all!
Task 29, reinstall HSPL, reinstalled stock Winmo 6.5, reinstall MAGDLR 1.13, Radio 2.15, etc...
Stock 6.5 rom boots run fine.
Win 7 ROM install fine but then hangs on HTC screen forever! Been looking at it for 30 mins now!
This is highly annoying as everything was working fine last week!
Weirrrrrdddd.
Anybody got tips on this?
Peace.
This is on a EU HD2.

What version of HSPL did you install?
And about WP7, did you installed from the bootloader or MAGDLR USB Flash?
Hey @xsi!
Got 2.08.HSPL
Flashed WP7 through MAGDLR. Everything is going smooth, partitions ok but reboot stuck on HTC logo for ever!
Tried to reinstall Android through Clk no problems, Android boots fine and all, flashed WP7 through MAGDLR after but same thing happens!
Maybe a problem with Clk NAND partitions?
Cheers!

No my friend i will go with sd card problem ... i had same problem it will stock at htc logo ... tried couple sd card 7 of them and i works with 1 gig sd card memory

[Q] A Challenge for anyone who's up for it

My sincere apologies if this has been posted elsewhere (i can't find a thing and been looking all morning!).
I've ballsed up my HD2. Basically i tried to run sd card dual boot android thingy last night. Radio didn't upgrade as it should have and so anfroid didn't work either. So...today I tried downgrading SPL from 3.033 to 2.08.0000 so i could upgrade radio to be compatiable. To cut a long story short I used the downgrading post to do it and now i have upgrade rom error please try again. One positive note though....stuck on a lovely red green, blue and white screen (bootloader me thinks?) with spl showing as 2.08.0000.
Now....I thought i was slightly above average in terms of genereal public geeky know-how but this has certainly humbled me. I've been through the O SH*T I've bricked it (both me and the phone) and through dam....my wife will kill me, i'm now at denial thinking it will magically sort it self out (which it won't).
So please, apologies for the essay....can some help me out. Please go slow as I really can't do things without step my step instructions.
In a nutshell: can't get past bootlaoder and i wanna go for a poo because of it.
HELP!

I have no idea about HD2 but most smartphones would have a recovery option in its PC software suite. Try that if all else fails.

I'm not sure that would work, plus i don't think I've got the disc (had hd2 for 18months now).
It says:
HX-BC
SPL-2.08 0000 8G XE
MicroP (LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x30
Tried loading standard rom from htc site but after 1% it crashes.
Crashing your phone is definitely a cure for constipation!
HELP!!! Anyone? Tried HSPL and it didn't work, still stuck at bootloader. Have a bricked it?
You flashed the stock 2.08 SPL instead of Hard SPL. That is why it will not let you load another ROM.

Thanks for replying but, pardon my ignorance (i'm not very good at this stuff), how do I resolve this issue? is stock ROM the one that comes with the phone? I've ried putting different SPL through HSPL but stays at 2.08. What am I doing wrong?
thanks in advance

The SPL you put on there is stock, meaning locked so you cannot flash custom ROMs.
You need to run HSPL4 again, and flash HSPL 2.08 NOT SPL-2.08 0000.
THEN you can flash whatever the hell you want
Don't flash HSPL 3.03 unless you plan to just use a 3.14 based windows mobile ROM.
just tried that and it stops half way through process and put spl 20.8 0000 on it even though i asked for HSPL. whats wrong with it? any ideas? again, i appreciate your help. is this anything to do with radio (????what is radio??? lol)
now all hspl does is not do as i say, whatever i pick whether it be 2.08 stock and 2.08 hspl (or their 3.03 counterparts) it show spl of 2.08.0000.
to be honest i just want my trusty winmo back so i can make calls, to hell with android (for the moment lol)
Is it regular or tmous?
Regular - 2.x spls arent stock for regular, only tmous uses 2.x as stock, so that may be havjng an effect, though it shouldn't,,,,,
Run hspl2 (note that's hspl2) and choose 1.66.0000
If that takes ok, then go to htc.com and find a rom that your serial allows you to download and flash it.
Tmous - get latest rom from t-mobile.com and flash that. If usb flashing doesn't take try sd card flash.
In both cases if still no luck, try goldcard, pm me an emaik address and your cid and I'll make you one.
You could also try the "chill phone in bag in fridge for half hour before flashing" trick, which if it works means you have overheating issues.
Spl - any spl ending 0000 is a factory spl andwill not allow flashing except that phones stock rom.
just pmed you, dunno if i did it right, hopefully you got it. Unfortunatley hspl2 didn't work either, still 2.08.0000 on there. Can i work with this in any way? ie can i load another rom on rather than revert back to htc rom if it easier? This all began with wanting dual boot android/winmo but its gone belly up lol, still i suppose there are ppl that have bricked phones whch are worse off.
I don't even know how to load another rom! i'm the noob of noobs!
From PM

I'm afraid that hspl2 didn't sort it out either, still shows spl 2.08 0000. Although it does say successful, when booting up it says failed and reverts back to bootloader. Should i be pressing any buttons while it boots up (i'm not - only vol down key when i need usb port to work).
Could i have a goldcard please? What is a goldcad and how do i use it? I haven't a clie as you can see. MY email is ***********.
I really appreciate your time, I understand you must be busy.

ah i was afraid of it not working, , next i would suggest try hspl4, choosing 3.03.hspl or 3.03.0000, though again, i suspect the same thing,,, no change.
No real answer as to why it does that, i suspect a bad nand (memory) block, perhaps some memory flag that needs to be set but gets corrupted, , or something.
All i can suggest is trying hspl2,3 and 4 to try and change the spl to anything, , you have a regular hd2, so theres no problem, it should take any spl.
Goldcard is basically a magic sd card that makes the phone think it is in the factory, and lets you flash any STOCK rom from any region and carrier, and the phone will accept it as its correct rom. You can make them from any 4gb or smaller sd card, but i need teh CID (unique serial) of that sd card to send you the image which you write to the disk.
Problem is, getting the CID, , if you have another windows mobile phone you can use for 5 minutes that takes sd cards) then you are laughing, if you don't then you may be in trouble (although again, this is pretty unlikely to work if you really do have the stuck spl/radio problem, so if you cant make a goldcard dont lose any sleep)
Anyway, if you can get hold of a running winmo phone and connect it to your pc, then have a read HERE
http://samsamuel.co.uk/news.php?id=8
If you cant get hold of a winmo phone, then you will have to google on how to find sd cid without winmo phone, , , ,get ready for an evenings reading and frustration!

No, only stock roms will flash on 0000 spl's.
your phone, if acting normally, should always take the correct stock rom, but i have myself had issues flashing a correct stock rom when i left spl as 2.08.0000, until i downgraded to spl 1.66.0000, however the dowbgrade worked, whereas yours isnt taking.
As for which rom should always flash, go HERE and the second one down is t mo UK. If your serial gets rejected when you try to dfownload it, then its not the correct rom for that phone.
Download that, and rename teh file from filename.exe to filename.zip, then open the zip, inside is a bunch of files, one is called RUU_signed.nbh, extract that and rename it to leoimg.nbh and put it on your sd card (4gb or smaller, formatted FAT32) and reboot your phone into bootloader, where it should start to flash.
thanks for all your help.
At the moment its stuck on loading...has been for 15min, i think i'll reset it. I did manage to get it on another spl earlier this afternoon but it was 3.03 and i didn't think that was any good for me so changed it back. i'll keep trying to get a hspl on it, i take it that after that i can put any rom on it (cooked).
I'll try my wife's touch and see if i can make a goldcard.
Thanks again, let you know what happens.
jusr reset it and spl 1.66 is on there but only flashes up for a second before a white loading scren comes up. reset it a few times after that and still no joy. htc rom won't connect to it!
its working! the sd card was still in the phone and i had put something on there this morning (think it was a radio or something which caused loading screen to occur) windows just lkoadiong now, hopefully it will work. I'm still up for android dual booth tho lol. if this all works then i think i might wait. Samsamuel, i really appreciate your help in all this!
Thanks again!

ps anyone readinf this...if in doubt just keep trying hsdp until u can do it in ur sleep, i must have done it 50 times today
Ah yea, leaving an inage on the card,,, bet you don't make that mistake again, hehe.

[Q] Is my HD2 dead ? :((

Hi guys, i dont know what happened but since i have put the android NAND on my phone it stops responding. in MAGLR i kept getting FATAL1E error. So fine i decided i will come back to windows 6.5.. i have installed 3.66 officail one and same things keep happening. It will sometimes boot sometimes it wont. It will boot but it wil hard reset instantly. Exacly the same as it was on android. I think it might be broken physicly. I dunno RAM, ROM, CPU ? Any way of checking it ? I dont want to say goodbye to my Leo
Thanks for help

Either a hardware issue or something in NAND causing it.
Here's what I'd do.
1) Flash HSPL if you went back to stock SPL
2) Flash Task29
3) reflash MAGLDR or Stock ROM.
The key here was task29 which will completely erase your NAND so there is nothing left over to mess you up. If it still gives you issues after this I would think hardware.

Thanks for quick replay. I remmember when i was first playing about with android i thinks something messed up the HSPL. The current one i got is SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE. Dont know if its the one i should have. ALso when i flash winmo i did it over the cable not straight from the SD card. So im not sure if it has changed SPL. I did use Task29

Yeah but you may not be able to flash task29 without HSPL installed first since task29 is not an official ROM, so you may have to flash HSPL first then task29 then magldr.
hmm this is very strange. Suprisingly after loading the newest ROM and SPL 3.. something with it from the SD card all the problems dissapear. But When i start playing with Hard SPL and MAGLRD it just keeps freezing and kind of overheating. Still keep getting E1 FATAL ERROR. Dunno what its for but my guess is that parts of my memory are broken and it causes data to corrupt. Anyone had situation like that ? Guess i will be stuck on Winmo

yes i have
just if anyone is interested i have solved the problem. For some reason i think the HSPL did not want to work propley. So i have installed HSPL 4 on my 3.03 SPL and then installed clK. After that i have managed to install Clockwork and then NAND clK Typhoon one. Now everything boots up and works like a charm. No issues with overheating and freezing. Thanks to all involved
Well done VipereK027, and thanks for updating us with your solution.

[Q] Some help required! Please!

Hey guys, so i'm the new one!
I have some problem with my first attempt to put WP7 on my HD2.
I have succesfully put the HSPL 2.08, then the Radio 2.15.50.14 and after that the Magldr13 on my phone.
BUT after i tried to flash the "Pdaimatejam v4" ROM it had some error messages for the partitions, so i guess my 16GB Sandisk Class2 SD-card just isn't working.
So my installation failed :-(
I restarted my phone and now i'm stuck with the screen "booting wph, wph loading, 12345 go go go" followed by the start screen - after that nothing happens.
My question: How can I get back into the Magldr??
Am I guessing right that I now have to get a SD Card that works and flash back to WM6.5 and after that try to flash again? Or can I just try to flash again without going back to the stock?

Thanks walidhazem I managed to get back to the Magldr screen!
Also thanks dxdy for the tutorial, I will try that today.
So as my installation failed, do I have to flash back to WM 6.5?? Will flashing back to WM6.5 delete the Radio 2.15.50.14?

anytime!
you dont have to, and if you choose to do, it will not delete the current radio
Ok, so basically I just have to put a compatible SD-card in my phone, start the Magldr again and flash the ROM again? is that right? The old "failed" installation will be overwritten?

Yup, finding a card is the tricky bit, once you have a working card your laughing.
It should install without an SD card at all, its not much use in that state but it means you can just hard reset the device rather than have to do the whole flash thing again.
Edit:
Oh an congrats on actually reading the threads! you wouldnt have got as far as you did without doing that and is alot more than most than most new folk do on here!
Well I have 3 other SD-cards around here. I will try them and hopefully one works. ;-)
Thanks, dazza9075. I've read many threads here, many tutorials and watched "how-to" tutorials on youtube. I guess I just like to be prepared!

SPL?

I'm trying to fix a co-workers' HTC HD2. It *had* WM 6.5 but she somehow installed SPL 3.03 (?) and I have been unable to make ANY progress with flashing a ROM onto her phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Note: I'm only familiar with working on my Captivate, the XDA community has been good to me in the past, hoping some of you can spare a few minutes to help me help out my co-worker.
Download HSPL4, boot into bootloader (tricolor) and flash HSPL 2.08.
BTW: Wrong forum!

@syngamer if its Android that you want to put on the phone then read the requirements in the above thread before you start. As you have SPL 3.0.3 on the phone you will want to follow *THIS* guide to install HardSPL and select HSPL 2.0.8 from the list or Magldr wont run properly. Also boot into the bootloader and make sure you have a new radio as that can cause problems too.
MArk.
Thanks guys, but no matter which guide/tutorial I try I keep running into the ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR
you should give more detail, especially things like the full filename of the file you are using that gives the error, and details of what you are doing to perform the flash, and details of what you think you mean by ''It *had* WM 6.5 but she somehow installed SPL 3.03 '' since thats a normal spl?
ALso, is it a normal hd2, or is it a tmous hd2? (tmous is t mobile US and has green send key red end key, and its very important to know which it is)

It's a T-mobile HD2. She started trying to flash Android on it and got cLK 1.14 but couldn't progress from there.
well i cant really help with the next steps, cos ive never used cLK, its a bit too advanced for me, give me teh simplicity of magldr any day.
You didnt explain the errors tho, , i mean, if you have cLK installed, you should be using fastboot to flash cwm next i think, whereas teh error you describe sounds like you are trying to flash with teh phone in bootloader(stripey screen)?

Well, I've got Magldr installed, CWM is now on there and from there I'm set. Currently flashing (trying to at least) NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V3.2a_NAND_(Android-2.3.7).
EDIT: holy ****, that was fast. I currently see an HTC logo...wondering if first boot takes awhile like most...and disregard. It's now loading. Success! Thanks for the links/guides everyone! This is why XDA is the best.
Congrats on your restoration f the HD2!
BTW she can dual Boot the HD2 if she likes
