[Q] Task 29 problem - Touch HD General

I'm sorry i know it's against the rules to be starting a new thread but it's been a week i've been asking for help and no one noticed. This is just a try to come noticed.
I installed task 29 on my blackstone. I had olinex 1.56 installed and later did the task29 with radio 1.13, 1.14 and 1.17 After successfully doing it i went on step 2 that is installing a clean rom. I tried these roms
blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1
RUU_TOUCH_HD_MARYONE_23148_WWE_191110
WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.Shipped ROm
RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship(3)
They get installed but after i store the contacts and everything it gets stuck if kept for like half an hr. The screen doesn't respond but power button and the volume button works.
I took my phone to a repair center and they couldn't fix it. So please help me i've just got only one phone.
I don't mean to offend any moderators by this but i'm just asking for your help. Thank You

Try reinstalling stock ROM after Task 29.
Restore ONLY contacts, and then try using device for several days.
DO NOT install any other software!!!
If it works, then problem is in some data or software you're restoring.
If not, restore original SPL and original ROM and try again.
If it does not work... and service can not help you... then sorry...

Hello i did reinstall the stock rom after task 29 and i was using pimbackup for restoring but that freezed my phone so i installed the stock rom again and thought of not using it. Did that but nothing much helped.
I hope believe these are the correct shipped roms
WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.Shipped ROm
RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.3 4_1.13.25.24_Ship(3)
Everything on xda has worked like wonders for me. Be it android on any other rom but right after task29 nothing seems to be working on my phone.
One thing i've noticed after installing any rom after task29 is if i get to the bootloader it gets me to a 1 sec white screen saying no image found. I hope what's causing a problem.

Do you understand WHAT Task 29 is?
It formats the partition drive of your device where the ROM resides. Meaning, it wipes any data regarding ROM.
So of course it would say "No image found".
I don't know which ROM is stock for your device. Try to update ROM via HTC site.
If lucky, it will suggest / let you find adequate ROM.
For my device it's 1.56.407.2 (German)!
If unlucky, it will say "Not supported" or something like that - then go for Orange 1.59.61.2 ROM.
And you might try one 1.5x ROM flash WITHOUT Task 29...

Just try installing stock ROM by stock RUU with USB cable. It will format data for you so you do not need any task 29 before flashing. If it doesn't work, try NOT restoring your contacts.

Thanks will do it and keep yu updated with it..

Thanks i tried installing the stock rom like you told me but then got stuck on the screen alignment screen. I later installed blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1 and now it's responding to every touch. Thanks alot. I hope this stays like this and yes instead of restoring i forwarded all the contacts through bluetooth. Owe you a BiiiiiiiiiiiiG thanks..

Too soon to be happy as same again..I don't think there should be a problem with touch as it works fine for first 1hr but right after something gets stored by something i mean contacts it stops reponding after sometime. The volume and power button work all fine. I can't make out the problem. Any ideas or suggestions. Shall i make a video and post ??

FIRST you have to make it work with factory settings - stock SPL and stock ROM.
After that flash what you like...

I think you have to follow Bodisson's suggestion, do everything as stock and retest without restoring anything. If it still failed...... you should have it repaired
Good luck!!

I had a very bad flash when I first tried Cloudy 0.7.
Unstable and freezing clock in TouchFLO (but NOT system clock!), crashing programs, very slow satelite lock with radio 1.17 on, sudden autolocking/unlocking...
So I did Task29, put on stock ROM (latest German 6.1), after that latest Orange to get newer radio, and after that Cloudy's 0.7.
Now I'm happy so far...
And I'll stick with radio 1.14 for now since it uses a bit less battery than 1.17...

Glad to see somebody researching things out and settling on a radio he prefers due to performance rather than those just going for latest

I totally agree with spartan on this one. It's better to stick with old one's for performance rather than having problems with the latest one's. My device is working better than before but it does get stuck. I'm using stock rom with 6.1 and want to switch to 6.5 so looking for some compatible 6.5 rom with radio 1.14 maybe
Bodisson can you tell me all what you're using bro so that i can tr it on with my device.

All rom's should work with each radio to be honest. Glad your device is working better, though still a little baffled why you're still having difficulties
EDIT - You are on a wm6.1 rom. Is the rom based on 1.56+, if not you may need to revert to HSPL 1.14

I know it got me bedazzled as well as i've flashed couple of times before but never faced any such difficulties. I even tried android on my phone and everything worked like charm. RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship is what i'm using at the moment. I did try to flash it again with a 6.5 version rom but still gets stuck. The phone does get stuck once in a while if it is kept unused for a while so don't exactly know how to go on about it.
P.S: I know how hard it is to control things as an admin as i myself run a group. Photography in my case. Cheers

I'm baffled but still want to get to the bottom of your issue and would appreciate any help from other members who may have idea's on how to solve your issue. From what I've read everything you have done is correct, but I don't like being stumped!!
If we start from the start, we may get to the bottom of this........

Ok it all started when i tried installing task 29. I flashed my blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1 rom thinking task 29 will work awesomely fast with some newer version as it'll get installed as the default rom.
My phone started freezing like anything right after i flashed it with task 29. Right now my device is running on 1.56.405.1(43972) WWE and 1.13.25.24 rom and freezes again once in a while.
Just waiting for some miracle to make it work fine again.

Well as you know a T29 formats device so you need to flash a rom or you'll be stuck at boot screen. Before you do a T29 it states you must have HSPL on your device first. Now from what I've read you did have HSPL on first and your T29 worked as you where stuck at boot screen afterwards.
I'm assuming you turned device off, booted into bootloader then flashed youir rom (blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1) which is based on 1.56+ as was your HSPL.
This all seems correct so I'm not sure what went wrong.
Is above all correct?
Did you try a T29 again and flash different rom or did you just flash different rom over existing?

I did task 29 on blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1 and tried installing RUU_TOUCH_HD_MARYONE_23148_WWE_191110 in this process i started task 29 first and flashed it with radio 1.14 by placing the radio and task29 in same folder. Once done it got stuck with windows mobility. After that i restarted on bootloader once again and flashed it with RUU_TOUCH_HD_MARYONE_23148_WWE_191110 . It does get installed but then freezes on configuring device for first time use and then freezes big time on the screen for alignment. I had 1.56 installed before flashing with task 29. If the whole thing bypasses the align screen the rom will keep freezing big time.
That's been the whole issue.

Right, I never put any files in same folder as it only confuses flashing process and can cause issues. I.e. put T29 in its own folder, radio 1.14 in its own folder and then rom in another folder.
Do a T29 and when its complete, I.e. stuck in smart mobility screen. Then you take out battery to turn phone off. After this put phone into bootloader and flash rom. Then flash radio after it as a lot of roms have a radio file included

[Need Help]ROMs won't boot after initial setup

I hope someone here can help me to make my LEO work again.
Im having huge problems with my HD2 after flashing a ROM with Extendir. While setting up the device with Preset Installer my PDA went to deep sleep and failed installing all cabs.
After reboot it hung on the screen where Radio Version etc. is shown. That is why i made another Hard Reset. That let my phone boot again but after initial setup it hangs again at that place.
I tried another ROM and experienced the same problem. After that i went back to shiped with spl and radio. Not even that fixed the problem.
I tried MTTY with task 29 and reflash stock. It stays the same! After initial setup my phone sometimes hangs before or after boot animation. sometimes it boots till sense is started and hangs there.
Does anyone have a smart idea how i can make my leo run propper again?
Thanks for help.
edit: im not sure if its Extendir. It could be something else, too. I tried flashing via usb and storage card.

to assess that rom V.0.8 it has rom 2.0x base
radio 2,08 to enable 576 MB
the rom that it uses, it could not be compatible with the version radius
try to chnge a version radio or try to change version rom
if you use radio 2.08 from rom 2.07,try to flash rom cooked with 576 Mb enable
sorry for my poor english,i'm Italian
Sorry mate
the problem is other
I have since the rom of bob qualified V.08 is for 576 mb
You tried booting up with the SD card taken out of the device?
WB
You need to have a radio that supports the 576 mb. But I don't think this is your problem. It sound like to me your storage card is the problem. If you have another storage card format it to FAT 32 and try again. I bet your problem is solved. Also Don't use a 16gb card until you know for sure it is working. Even then there are problem with some people using them.
I dont have a Storage Card inserted now. Still the same problem
Btw. Using Laurentius V1.2 now. Same error here. i try to flash a lower Radio now.
As i said before i flashed stock 1.66 via storage card with radio and spl and still had the same Problem.

Are you able to flash HSPL again? Can you confirm on the Tri Color screen it says HSPL 1.42?

Everything flashes as usual. HSPL, Radio and ROMs. The software just isnt running stable after flash.
If it would be a Radio/SPL/ROM problem the stock rom should fix it.
Not wanting to be the one to say it but maybe your device is defective or damaged. Or maybe the problem was caused ny the failure going to sleep, but I don't think so. I have accidentally unplugged mine before during flash and still got it back. If you reflash the ROM it should work again. If you don't have any luck I would flash back to the Stock ROM and take it in for repair.
To bad noone can help. I will do some research and if i have no success i will send it back.
Some weeks of waiting

Yes there have been many. There have been some in my threads. There is also a thread posted here with lots of discussions and it was determined the the lock ups and freezes with Manila 19222911 was the 16gb cards. It seems there was only one ROM that did not have the problem and unfortunately this cook doesn't share with others.
im making improvements. after flashing stock i found out that i can change more and more settings and install programs without the need to hard reset. when i damage the filesystem with a program or setting i hardreset the device. after restart i can install that program without problems and can try another one.
seems that my device is repairing magically

I think you didn't understand. after EACH program or setting i need to hardreset.
after hardreset i can install that program as usual as all programs i did that with before.
sseems that i 'gain' more and more storage back.

I guess I don't understand. You have to have a working ROM to install a program? For a stock ROM you should not have to install anything. It either works or it doesn't.

How to flash from SD card ?

I know apparently this isnt the best way to flash your HD2, but im stuck without any access to windows. (mac user)
i cant seem to find step by step instructions on how to do this properly....
is there a link somewhere i can get to so i can figure this out? isnt it as simple as copying the custom.nbh file to the root of my memory card, and entering the bootloader screen?
Sorry for all the noob questions.
take ruu_signed.nbh, copy it to sdcard formatted fat32 (2gb cards seen to work best) rename it leoimg.nbh, boot to bootloader and it should detect the image and ask if you want to flash.
it still requires hspl, unless you have a goldcard(easier to borrow a pc for two minutes to apply hspl than make a goldcard)
the phones already been flashed with hspl.
i just want to change the rom!
Thanks for the tips im going to go for it right now

Hi
One advice you have to remember is DO NOT flash any official rom with this method. If you do it will replace the hspl and you will be stuck.
Good luck

True, flashing a stock rom via sd card will overwrite hspl with the new stock spl, but you will not necessarily be stuck. That used to be the case before hspl2, as the original hspl only worked with spl 1.42.0000. HSPL2 now works with 1.42.0000, 1.66.0000 or 2.08.0000 spl's.
or just throw your mac away and buy a PC
What many forget is that you actually need an SD card and not SDHC, as those will not work.
understand u already flash hspl,
microSD / microSDHC will work as long it is formatted with FAT32 fs.
just copy the *.nbh to SD root & rename it to LEOIMG.nbh.
enter bootloader, follow on-screen.
if bootloader cant find any rom image, run scandisk & try again.
gd luck.
I just flashed this rom.
It seemed to be fine. It installed and looked a-ok.
I had a look around and every thing looked as it should.
I added "26.4 column Start menu.cab" and now the phone won't reboot at all.
It gets to the HTC white screen, and then hangs.
Any ideas?
Is it a conflict between the 4 columns app and the ROM?

when you say "just flashed this rom", what rom?
also, did you read ALL the first few posts in the chefs thread? chances are it requires a specific radio version
either that or you didn't do a hard reset after you flashed.
apologies, I replied in here when I thought I was in the HTC Energy thread.
The device rebooted after the flash.
Does that not count as a hard reset?
samsamuel said:
Is it T Mobile usa? if so, then you have flashed an incompatible rom.
tmous (T Mo US) phones will opnly take roms based on 2.10, the rom you have installed is 1.66 (D 1. 66. Kumar)
Kumar has a rom in the Tmo US section based on 2.10, you should use that, not the one in teh normal hd2 section.
With power off, press and hold "volume down", tap the power key and continue to hold vol down until you get the three coloured screen, connect to usb, wait for word 'serial' to become 'usb' and flash a compatible rom.

I ran into the same problem and all I had to do was to get the phone into Bootloader and then flash the radio recommended by ROM Cook.
also the same problem
I have also this problem, but I think it's in the rom, when I installed the rom, everything seems ok, but after a reset, the screenthat I get is the white HTC screen.
After a hard reset it is ok, but after a reset it is the same problem.
Then I thought, i take an older rom, but when I've installed the rom he is automatic installing the cab file's at the end of the installation, and he's going to automatic reset the HD2. After the reset I have the same problem as with the new rom.
So the biggest problem is that I can't install another rom or radio because the rom don't start for 100%, and when I do a hard reset, after the reset at the end of the installation I get the white HTC screen.
What can I do, can I fix this problem?

RTFM. These constant posts about white screen hangs are really getting frustrating. Does nobody follow the forum rules of searching any longer? There's nothing wrong with the rom, the user on the other hand I'm not so sure of.

If you bothered to read even just the last 5 pages of the Energy thread you would have seen probably 20 mentions of the problem. Energy rom won't work with a x.xx.51.xx radio.

WARNING: Task29 format may do harm to your device? Tell me this is not true

It’s bad day for me.
When I flashed Jackos Oldschool ROM(WM6.1_21048_M2.1) last week I used the Task29 tool to format the device, Jackos Oldschool ROM ran fine.
Then yesterday I flashed WM6.5_21903_M2.5 by Ark666 [Rhodium_AF],there was problem, the ok button on the up-right corner of the screen is not working,when you click it,the notifications window comes up,it's like you click on the midddle of the top screen. what's wrong? And it freezes whenever you click on Contacts(People) and HTC Calendar.Cannot use this rom.
Then I flashed WM6.5_21901 Valkyrie FireStorm tr2.5 by agent_47[v6.5],Settings are not working,for example,you click on today setting,it doesn’t response.
These two roms are recent releases,I don’t see anybody post complaint about similar problem,therefore I suspect Task29 is the CAUSE because I formatted device before flashing these two roms.
I even tried flashing a official stock rom,then flashed WM6.5_21901 Valkyrie FireStorm tr2.5 again,the problem still exists.
Do you think Task29 might have damaged my device memory? I have not seen anyone gave a warning about Task29’s potential harm.
I just flashed old rom WM6.5_21889_M2.5 by dotcompt [DeepShining v12 RC] which I used before, thank god,have not seen problem.
I am worried my device memory has been damaged,gurus and everyone, pls have an assessment on my situation, I don’t hope it’s Task29 that bring this.
Thanks
Before flashed WM6.5, have u done task29 again? Every changing ROM u should do task29. Mine is just fine.
Personally I never had any issues with Task29. The forum is full of people who have used it with success. Try flashing Task29 again and then flash a Stock ROM to see if that will get you back on track. Good luck.
Sergio76 took Task29 apart and determined that it can cause NO DAMAGE to your phone. All the application does is write a 'dummy' ROM to memory setting all memory addresses to 0 (zero). It is not a true format as it doesn't set memory maps or similar, it just sets everything to Zero.
Russ
TASK 29 Does NOT harm the device its jusk like flashing a black. some of the issues you descrived could of been due to a bad download/ downloads maybe on the task29 or ROMs or maybe something else.. but if you feel Task29 is no working for you just flash the stock ROM before flashing a custom ROM

Hi Segio,Russ,thank you taking time to investigate this. if Task29 is not the cause,then there must be something wrong with these two roms,I am wondering anyone tried the following two roms:
WM6.5_21903_M2.5 by Ark666 [Rhodium_AF]

WM6.5_21901 Valkyrie FireStorm tr2.5 by agent_47[v6.5]

what do you mean? do you mean we cannot do Task29 twice before flashing a rom?
No No I didnt format twice.
I formatted the device once then flashed Jackos Oldschool ROM(WM6.1_21048_M2.1),it's fine.
I formatted the device once then flashed WM6.5_21903_M2.5 by Ark666 [Rhodium_AF],it's NOT fine.

Now i think my experience is clear to you.
Dunno it did for me...
I don't know if it is true that it will do harm or if my issue is repeatable...
I have been flashing ROMs for years on my Titan and Rhodium and never had any reason to do something like Task29...
One of my regular ROMs is MightyROM. I do not understand the reasoning but in January Mike recommended flashing back to stock then to his newest ROM. So I did it because he said to. Mine is not to question Chef.
So again flashing through ROMs and last month Mike said to run Task29 and completely empty the ROM before installing his new one. So I did...
All I could get was the black screen that says "TouchPro 2" in white.
I tried everything. Posted in forums. Research. Finally I called Verizon Support. Nothing could get me into the bootloader... So fortunately Verizon sent me out a "like new" handset.
Since getting the new handset I have flashed MightyROM, Energy, BharS, Mr.X, and others looking for the best ROM for me for this time. I have had no issues ever in flashing ROMs on multiple devices that I don't know why Task29 would ever be necessary.
nokiadashi, i would assume since your using recent roms that your falling in to the trap of early adopters, buggy roms.
MHatter469, thats what its supposed to do, you use the cdma version for verizon. after you task29 connect your phone to your computer hold the volume down button while pressing the reset button at the same time. after you press the reset button keep holding the volume down until a red,blue green, white screen shows up. thats the boot loader. From there flash your rom like you always have
ive used task29 once to flash a rom to my device and thats when i flashed it from the stock rom
after that i have never used it before flashing. Am i taking a risk by not doing it?
i usually flash straight from my device because i download the rom through my phone and extract and flash making use of my computer unecessary instead of fighting with windows7

[Q] Constant crashing/rebooting with new handset

Hi all.
I have been running the TyphooN mod with no problems for months. Last week the touchsceen failed, so I removed HSPL and restored it to factory defaults and sent it off for repair.
Unfortunately o2 couldn't/didn't want to repair it, so they just gave me a brand new handset.
I have now reinstalled android in exactly the same way as before (using MAGLDR 1.13) and restored my backup. All seemed fine.....
The phone now keeps rebooting every 5 mins or so when in use, and about every hour if not using it.
I have tried everything I can think of, not loading backup, task29 before and after flashing radio etc etc.
The only thing that I had to do differently compared to my old handset was use HSPL4, as it came with 3.03, not 2.08.
The stock windows ROM seemed to work fine. Any ideas suggestions please? Getting so frustrated with it now.
Thanks
I read somewhere that HSPL4 is not compatible with MAGLDR, Im not sure, so you may want to try to downgrade your SPL then flash HSPL3 (2.08.HSPL) ,, then try again.
I was just about to make this same post. It started a few days ago for me. I have HSPL3 but I am using a MIUI ROM. I have repartitioned, wiped,reflashed and have even check for bad blocks (none) but still no suck luck at fixing this issue. very annoying. I just installed a new SD card hoping it would help. I will report back is it does.
I think I have fixed the problem, unfortunatly, I am usure of the exact solution!
It was either using HSPL3 instead of 4, or when I installed the radio, I was running it from my desktop, where a couple of other .nbh files were living, which I presume could have caused issues.
Hopefully this is of use to somebody, basically, run everything from its own folder...as per instructions!

[Q] White Screen of Death [HELP]

I've been searching for over 20hours around the internet for any solution to the so dreadful White Screen of Death in HD2.
This is due to a Radio Rom incopatible with the device. May be called Radio Brick! Lol
Well, it's truly desperating, as no method tried works!
The phone as soon as it's turned on just shows a white screen, no letters, no nothing.
Happened when I - dumbly - flashed a incompatible radio rom...
It has happened to a lot of other good people, but no solutions yet arrived to the internet!!!
In my case, I have hspl 2.08, and can perfectly access to bootloader, but flashing anything through SD does NOT work.
WHAT I'VE TRIED:
-flashing stock rom from HTC site, but when it comes to the radio part... UPDATE FAILED!
-tried a method here in XDA that solved a case like this but nothing... when it comes to flashing the radio, it always fails
-tried downgrading HSPL to SPL or to another version of HSPL.. curiously, the process says it was sucessfull but it changes nothing.. when i go to bootloader again the version is the same, no matter what kind of version I select...weird!
-nothing flashed through RUU works because comunication fails after 5min at 0%
-task 29 - does nothing
-changing rom/radios - always gives an error in radio update
I'm really, really, REALLY desperate, and I believe i'm not the only one in this situation!
Does someone have a brilliant idea on this?
I got it working again a couple of times but then it starts freezing after 10 hours and then i get again the whitescreen..
Now its stuck at bootloader i can't get in magldrboatloader does some1 known how i get into magldr because than i can flash another rom because in boatloader i can't flash
Hello,
I also have same problem I also cannot find a solution, Hope somebody can help us.
try j-tagging your devices !!
also it may be a hardware issue !!
good luck !!
Are you sure flashing through SD isn't working? Format the SD card new as FAT not as FAT32. And try to rename the the nbh file with into LEOIMG.NBH . Flash through a SD not a SDHC. Try this things, if they aren't working maybe j-tagging fix it.

you'll have to try flashing your device again and again !?
but i think j tagging is the best option for this problem !! !!
you can go to the original htc store if you have not flashed hspl !!
(flashing hspl voids warranty !) !! also try to stock spl to 1.42.0000 by using hspl2 !!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
if the bootloader screen (the three color screen) show 1.42.0000 spl then u can show it to the official htc stores !!
else
contact a local repair shop and try to jtag !!
may help !!
good luck !! !
So there is no fix i can do at home like flashing a specific rom or something else?
if the bootloader screen (the three color screen) show 1.42.0000 spl

Or 1.66.0000 or 3.03.0000
The best thing you can do is update the kernel version. I haven't had a WSOD for more than half of year.
The only kernel I've had this problem with was a rafpigna kernel on a sense rom. It was a build made in the first trimester of this year.
SPL-2.08. HSPL
I can flash it back to the normal rom from windows mobile. But i want a android version maybe some1 know a good rom and radio thats stays good?

What kernel version you use now? and what rom and radio? So i can do the same things you did.
Can you put the link were you downloaded the kernel and rom and radio please. Thanks in advance nemuro!
You have all information in his signature.
Radio 2.12.50.02.2
ROM Redux2
Kernel Tytung (Redux2 have Tytung 12.4 by default)
how about hardware reset with pressing 3 keys at the same time?
Let me explain whats happing me all the time:
First my phone freezed up all the time and after a couple of weeks I got the [wsod] I can boot into bootloader (3 color screen) there I can flash it back to the original stock (WiMo6.5)
But I want android for my whatsapp and I like android. So I put maglder 1.13 on my phone. Then I tried android NAND flashing this worked but afther 10 hours my phone is off and I got the [wsod] again. I flashed my radio first to 2.15 but didnt help I tried this 2 times.
Yesterday I flashed my hd2 I followed a guide for android sd flashing I put the radio 2.12 on my phone and a old rom. I flashed it with haregt.exe it worked for 10 hours again then boom [wsod]
Im realy desperate, have some1 fixed this problem by himself already?
Did you try to run winmo for a few days? If you have problems even with stock OS most probably is hardware issue. If everything is OK running winmo then try fresh install (task29, radio, magldr, predefined recovery,ROM) of this ROM:

For me works perfect.HD2 EU Radio 2.15.50.14
