Stuck at 0%

Can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong. I'm trying to flash a ROM but every time it goes to the HTC screen and stays at 0%. I've read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614 and i installed hspl. I got the "we hacked it" message so i assume i did it correctly. Is there something else im missing?

I noticed when I flashed from stock to dutty I did it through active sync and not through micro sd card method. Try flashing from a computer

I have been using a computer

reboot into bootloader (power button plus both volume keys) and check to make sure your spl says hspl after the number
what rom are you trying to flash

Reflash the SPL and make sure you select 2.08 HSPL, and not the 2.08.000 SPL because you already have it installed. As the other poster stated, confirm by going into the bootloader and seeing if 'HSPL' comes after the numeric info.

Ok i got it. I didn't select the 2.08.hspl the first time. Thanks for the help

haha, I did the same thing when I got my HD2. The tutorial wasn't clear as to which SPL to choose and I chose the wrong one by accident .

No problem.
That seems to be the common little stumbling block for US HD2 first-time flashers.

Is that option there if you want to change it back to the original spl so you can flash an official ROM?

You don't have to flash it back to stock hspl to flash a stock rom but it is there so after you flash to stock you can relock that way if you have to get the device warrantied out there isn't anything there that would void the warranty.

[SOLVED] Stuck with MFG SPL 2.02/2.03 from Test Rom [SOLVED]

Hello,
I accidentally flashed a Test ROM w/ an MFG SPL (Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.03.531.6_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.50.23_3_Test) and meant to flash 2.13 shipped rom and now I am stuck with 2.02/2.03.0000 Engineering SPL and can't seem to flash any official/shipped roms to get back to 2.08/2.10 spl..
In other words how can I flash an SPL that is compatible with HSPL3 Utility..
(SPL 1.42.0000, SPL 1.62.0000, SPL 1.66.0000, SPL 2.07.0000, SPL 2.08.0000, SPL 2.10.000)
Please help!
Thanks.

We have modified the installer HSPL3 Cotulla and added the ability to install HSPL 2.08 SPL 2.02. This version is not suitable for installation on SPL 2.07, on the other can.

If this helped you out of SPL 2.02 please remember to thank these guys for working this out.
Info about MFG SPL:
Why can't I change the SPL with these test ROMs?
- These stock ROMs have an MFG SPL which cannot be overwritten in any way, not by flashing stock ROMs from SD, HSPL utility, SSPL or goldcard. The only successful way has been to drop the SPL with mtty (and has only been done once or twice).
- Good new is you can still use your HD2 and switch between 2.02 and 2.03 test ROMs..
What is an MFG SPL?
- MFG SPL = Engineering SPL
xmoo said:
Guys, MFG SPL allowes you to use some extra commands using JTAG which you wouldn't be able to use on normal SPL.
I remmeber back in the days there was this user "Leoni" who was stuck on 0.67MFG SPL.
Comonex helped him dropping it. I tried to contact him several times for you guys.
But he never responded back to me.
So spam pm him

this happened to several people some months ago.
goldcard may work, yes, but if not then sspl should get you flashing roms, but you can't change radio with sspl.
look for thread started by xmoo around february or march.

I thought I had tried sspl.. could I have done it wrong?
I found it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606713
I put the shipped 2.13 (also tried 2.05, 2.07, 2.09, 2.10, 2.11 stock and test roms) rom nbh from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655653 in a folder with the SSPL.exe and then run .exe but the progress bar stays at 0%
I also tried creating a goldcard, but not quite sure how it works. do I put an nbh on the card with it and boot from sd? or use CustomRUU?
The only ones I can flash back and forth are 2.02 and 2.03 test roms. I'm so annoyed!
Thanks

Nevermind the device wont even turn on anymore

2.02 is a MFG SPL.
Engeniering SPL. You have to drop it using mtty (but if you do it the wrong way, you may brick ur phone!)
Someone flashed 2.10.0 with sspl and sent it back for warrenty. When it came back it had 2.13 with SPL 2.10 on it....

Well for some reason I tried flashing to the 1.01 test from the 1.03 to see if it would change from the MFG spl and I wasn't really paying attention to the progress bar but when I looked back it said (on PC) "ROM Update sucessful" but the phone didn't boot and won't even charge now?
What happened? and can I still send it in for warrenty?
Thanks for the help!

Well if the phone isn't powering on, they probably can't check the spl...
So mayb yes. There are some other people who have done the same ish, and returned there phone. Ask them first.

I am badly looknig for an MFG SPL.
Can someone point me where this is located pls? thanks!
Sry. please ignore my questions, I asked too fast...

Even MTTY does not remove the SPL 2.02.0000
Any solution for this yet? The test ROMs 201 to 209 are not intended for the TMOUS devices there for it is making it hard to remove the watermarked SPL.

I recontructed the ROM without the watermark but it will not install on the device. Anyone has an idea of how to remove the watermark? The SPL used form that ROM is the cause of the block...

Anymore thoughts on this issue?
I bought an eBay "for parts only" HD2 that the seller said sometimes booted into windows 6.5 but most of the time froze at the stick-together screen and never fully booted. Sounded maybe fixable to me, so I took a chance on it. I've never seen it try to boot into winmo 6.5 and when I check the bootloader info I see this:
PB81120 SS-B3
SPL-2.02.0000 XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(Touch) 0x50
The SPL-2.02.0000 was how I found this page. I've read many other pages about HSPL3 etc., but this phone is not recognized at all by two different WinXP machines w/ActiveSync. I don't get any messages regarding Qualcomm or anything like that. It's as if it isn't plugged in except the charge light does go on.
The only thing I can do is flash from the MicroSD card. But, haven't found any other ROMS other than the one that is on it already, that will actually flash. The others get stuck at a white screen that says Loading... and it just hangs there.
When the phone powers up it shows:
R 2.06.50.23......3 (the ...... is actually a squiggly looking line, not actually dots)
G 15.30.50.07u
D 2.03.75592 8G
then it just hangs there forever and goes into what looks like a screensaver mode (parts of the screen get darker and the stick together moves around as well).
If it's dead/bricked, what part inside would need replacing to get it running again (i.e. the motherboard)? This phone looks brand new. It's it fantastic condition. I've seen terrible looking HD2s on eBay that still work. So, I'm curious if there is something I could take out of an ugly phone and swap into this pristine HD2 and have it work.
As I see it, my only other options are to contact HTC and find out what they charge to repair it, or sell it for parts - again.

Since last post have discovered if I manually put phone into bootloader mode then plug it in via USB to my PC I hear the confirmation from the PC that the device is plugged in. Activesync does not fire up, but bootloader changes from serial mode to USB mode. I can start the ROM update utility, the black htc screen with 0% shows on the phone but eventually times out with an error [262] that the recovery process doesn't fix.

The person who owned that previously probably did the same thing I did and flashed one of the test roms with MFG SPL (2.02 or 2.03) Just don't try to flash 2.01, it'll most likely brick it. tomorrow the unbricking attempt on my device will begin.. but I guess you have to drop the SPL using mtty. talk to xmoo

I'll be very interested to read how your unbrick attempt turns out. I tried the MTTY instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668347
But, that post starts out saying "Before you start one note, this method only works if you succesfully flashed HSPL", which of course my HD2 does not have. Mine used to have 2.02.0000, but after many different tries at a fix - now has 2.00.1000. This is no better a situation to be in as it never gets past the "stick together" screen either.
I tried the create a goldcard.img info found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591314
However, the directions for QMAT are outdated. But, I did download the new PSAS software offered at the site linked to in the above post and believe I got my 1GB MicroSD card's serial number but when I tried to "generate HTC goldcard" for Leo it gives a message that says "Goldcard for newer devices isn't implemented in this unregistered version" and it looks like it cost 30Euros to register. I'd pay if I knew for a fact this was going to work. But, I have my doubts because in step 2 you need to change the security permissions policies on the HD2. I have no access to the registry since there is no activesync connection possible at this point and I can't launch any programs like PHM.
The fix (if there is one even possible) has to come completely from the SD card as far as I can tell.
Good luck with yours! I hope something works and you come back here and post the sequence.

2.03 has the mfg spl 2.02.0000 and i think 2.01 or 2.02 test ROMs have 2.00.1000. Least thats what I remember..

that part is only necessary to find the ID No. of the sd card. If you can get access to a working WM phone for a few minutes, you can use the other device to find the ID No.
There are alternate ways to get the ID, such as a linux boot disk on a laptop that has a built in SD card slot, but the slot must be directly mounted on the computers PCI bus, if it runs through a usb header it will give you the ID of teh USB header and not the card.

I'm trying to find a way for HSPL3.exe to disable the SPL version check.
This way you can directly flash other HSPL versions....

Thanks for looking into this..

[Q] Help Upgrading My Rom

Can anyone help me please... I'm trying to upgrade the rom to the latest HTC HD2 rom for O2. I connect the phone via USB, sync it and then run the RUU program from HTCs website. The phone starts the process and boots the phone to the 4 colour screen and then to the black HTC progress screen and then it hangs on 0% for a few minutes until the utility finally tells me its lost connection with the phone (Error 262). I've done soft resets and hard resets. Disabled firewalls. Tried on another machine. Even ran the utility under XP SP3 compatibility. Still no joy. Can anyone help?? Thanks

Sounds like you might have a bad USB cable or that you are having timing out problems. First forget about the ActiveSync. All ActiveSynce does is help insure hour HD2 is ready to be flash by checking the battery level and such. Power your HD2 on but hold the volume down button down while powering on. When you see the tri color bootloader screen connect hour USB cable and wait for the Serial in the white bar of bootloader to change to USB and then right click the RUU of the ROM and select run as administrator. If this still does not work I would try another USB cable.

hmm....if you are trying to flash stock rom which is not intended for your device, you need HSPL or Gold card.
There are threads in Windows Mobile 6.5 section that will guide you on installing HSPL or making a Gold Card.
Good luck

Well here's the thing, my phone is locked to O2. I'm trying to install the latest ROM from HTCs website for O2 customers. For the life of me I cant get it to install. I did install HSPL a few months ago when I tried to run Android from the SD card. That didnt work either. Like I say, I've done a hard reset. Could the HSPL thing be causing an issue. How do I get rid of it.
I hate being a noob sometimes!!

To get rid of HSPL you just have to run the HSPL Utility avain and choose the correct SPL version for your ROM when it asks what version you want to flash. Remember HSPL has the stock SPL versions to, click on the link in my sig to download HSPL 4. Hint thecstock SPL versions all have four zeros at fhe end and the HSPL version do not.
You said you are getting error 262, this usually means you don't have the right SPL or HSPL one of the two atleast that is if I remember correctly. What ROM are you trying to flash and what does it say in bootloader right now?

Hi... Been away so only just got this reply.
The rom I'm trying to install is a stock rom update from the HTC website:
O2 (UK): 3.14.206.1
For the record, my phone is an O2 phone.
As for Bootloader? It currently says:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.0000 8G XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x40
Hope that helps. Really bugging the arse off me this is.

get hspl2,
put phone into bootloader manually first and connect usb lead
(thats why it was timing out on you ((error 262)) because the connection takes too long to reconnect when it reboots from winmo into bootloader, , if you do it yourself first, that solves this error 99% of the time.)
when 'serial' changes to 'usb' run hspl2, choose 1.66.0000 (i recommend this because 2.08.0000, whilst stock, is a tmous stock, so 'may' give problems, , totally unconfirmed, but i had issues recently removing android/magldr whilst spl was 2.08.0000, i switched to 1.66.0000 and it worked straight away, i have a slight hunch that spl 2 doesnt like to be downgraded in some circumstances, , if you preffer you could use hspl4 and go straight for 3.03.0000, since that is whjat your 3.14 rom will install anyway when you flash it)
when it reboots saying its done, immediately hold voldown to re-enter bootloader
when serial changes to usb, run your 3.14.exe

Ignore that..
Mate - you're a genius. Followed your instructions and it worked like a charm.
Cheers pal. You saved my brain

Erm, not sure how much more basic i can make it. (Ignore my descriptions, just follow the steps)
Power off, hold voldown,power on keeping voldown held,, see multi striped coloured screen, that's bootloader, you can flash from this screen.
First you should try without bothering to change the spl.
Enter bootloader and connect USB, run the 3.14 you downloaded. That's it.
If it doesn't work, try changing spl as in my previous post by entering bootloader, and instead of running the 3.14 you run hspl instead.
As for writing a guide, you already read the various "how to flash.." guides (there are several) and watched the (also several) YouTube guides before you even started this thread,,, didn't you? Didn't you?? If not then shame on you!
Post back and ill check tomorrow.

Hi ,
first sorry for my bad english cuz its not my native language
but i will do my best to explain what happened !
first of all i wanted to put windows phone 7 for my HTC HD2
and it worked i did it ,
but for a reason i wanted to turn back to wm 6.5 so i opened task29 tool
then HSPL2 ,
after that i couldn't do anything
i opened the ROMUpdateUtility but the loading stop on 0%
i tried to open any tool and all of them stop on 0%
so what can i do ?
my phone is stuck in a sort of logo screen :S

this the the logo that im stuck with
and i hope this pic can help
<< click on it to get a the picture in the original size

have you pulled the battery? If you haven't, do that to reboot the phone. While the phone is booting during the white t-mobile screen, hold vol down until you get to the color bar screen, then plug in your USB and run the WM6.5 stock ROM off the T-mobile website (www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade)

I think your problem is that you should have installed HSPL 2.08 instead of SPL 2.08. In my opinion custom ROMs won't work with SPL.
Please use HSPL3 or HSPL4 Software to modify.

Please give more details.
1. Are you able to get to the 3-color screen (press Vol-Dn + Power)? If so, what do you see?
2. What ROM are you using? Original or custom-ROM? If it is custom-ROM, you will need a copy of the BLACIMG.NBH file on your microSD that has to be slotted into the phone.
3. Did you do a full-charge of battery before you tried the first flashing of HSPL? If not, try re-charge till you see the green light then try again.

Your phone is still on SPL 1.15, then.
Here's a link to the Tutorial.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377&highlight=hspl
I used the instructions and downloads to update mine from SPL 1.15 to stock SPL 1.54 first when I first flashed. Then I found that there were video issues (see a 256-colour mode on Orange splash screen). Upon being advised by HTC0017, I flashed Olinex 1.56 and now all is okay.
