Installing WP7 procedure ? - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Hello everyone ,
There is a massive amount of info regarding my question , but I could not find a guide which sums it all ,
so a quick question here about the procedure of the installation , I would like to know if I got it all correctly .
Following with a europian HD2 (international) , current rom is stock 1.48.479.1 (71294) , radio 2.12.50.02_2 .
1. Install drivers on the computer .
2. Install HSPL 2.08 (specifically 2.08 ?) via HSPL4 from DFT .
3. Install a radio of my choice - Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14** . (which should unlock the RAM ? )
4. Install MAGLDR 1.13 .
5. Download a ROM , install a rom through MAGLDR .
I would really appreciate a quick yes or no , would not like to brick it on its second day .
Thank you all ,
Danny.

Got it working perfectly , despite the lack of comments - thanks to all whom being active in the forum .

Sorry mate, you need to remember most of us are all over the planet an we need to sleep
Im gonna click your wee thanks button because you actually bothered to search for it all and found everything
Regarding bricking
Its highly unlikely you will brick it, just dont bugger around with HSPL any more than you need to, by using Magldr and HSPL you have a couple of layers of protection, almost all problems can be fixed if you have access to the tri colour bootloader screen so dont worry
Biggest issue with WP7 is your battery, do not let it run down, if it comes up critical, then turn it off straight away, turn it on again when you can plug it in and save yourself some hassle, if you dont and it doesnt boot to windows without restarting go straight in to magldr and plug in the charger for half hour, the light will not show up. If you keep trying to start it you will drain what little life there is in the battery and then things get a bit more complicated
anyhow, good luck

I saw a few people asking on how to install WP7 on their HD2 and thought I will try to help out by giving a short guide with links for those that struggle to find all the different information. Please make sure that you read the installation instructions for the ROM you wish to install as this does not replace those...its ONLY meant to help those looking for information. Also read the information in each link posted for each step. Please feel free to add any corrections, installation tips etc into this thread.
CREDITS
I would like to mention that everything you read in this post is just gathering of information from other threads and that the credit is not due to me BUT to those people that put in a lot of effort to make all this possible to us. When you thank people...thank those in the threads listed below as they are the ones deserving the credit. Also thanks to XDA for making all this possible to us the community and for running well organized forums...your efforts are appreciated.
WARNING
· When installing WP7 your SD Card will be formatted during the installation process. Please make sure that you have made a backup of your SD Card prior to installing.
· When installing WP7 your phones warranty will no longer be valid.
· Please know there is a risk of bricking your phone...however the risk is very slim, but its there.
Steps of installation
1) Install HSPL2
2) Install Radio (2.14.40.04)
3) Install MagLDR (Ver 1.12 or Ver 1.13)
4) Install WP7 ROM
5) Install Zune
6) Install WP7 SDK
7) Install XAP's
8) Video
9) Additional Information
10) Trouble Shooting
Step 1 – Install HSPL2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
To check your HSPL version hold the volume down button...press the power button (red phone button at bottom left) till phone reboots.
· You need HSPL2.08 or higher
If you have to downgrade your SPL version in order to get to HSPL2.08 have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898128 and at the bottom you will see a post explaining a bit more with this link to ROM's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283
Step 2 – Install Radio
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Make sure you read up on the radio's and that the radio you select will work on your phone. Example...don't use a USA radio (1024 ROM) for a 512 (ROM).
· Get Radio (I used Leo_RADIO_2.14.50.02)
· Reboot Phone – press volume down button to enter boot loader
· Run CustomRUU (From Radio folder on PC)
· Follow instructions on PC screen
· You will notice on phone and PC that its installing
Step 3 – Install MagLDR
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893618
· You need MagLDR 1.12 or higher
· Reboot Phone – press volume down button to enter boot loader
· Run ROMUpdateUtility (From MagLDR folder on PC)
· Follow instructions on PC screen
· You will notice on phone and PC that its installing (It might wait a bit on 96% but don’t worry about that its normal)
· Boot into MagLDR by holding power button down
Step 4 - Install WP7 ROM
I would recommend to install one of the ROM’s that has already unlocked your phone as it will ease your process. Choose a ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=977
You need installed MAGLDR 1.12 or higher (Done in Step 3)
· Enter MAGLDR loader by pressing and holding the "Power button" if you aren’t already in it (End of Step 3).
· Choose point 5 - "USB Flasher" then press Green button
· Run DWI.exe (Vista/ W7 user should do that with administrator rights)
· Done, you have WP7 ROM on your device
Step 5 – Install Zune
http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/B/4/5B41E996-7CC5-400B-802C-69FBB3B492EF/ZunePackage47.exe
Step 6 – Install WP7 SDK
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920275
For installing the WP7 SDK on XP Scroll down to Basingwas post…its the 5th one in that thread…it worked for me on XP.
Step 7 – Install XAP’s
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=860964
and a list of some Xap files here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920845
Video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nac3Fnf-lY4
Watch this video if you are unsure what to do. Also the video doesn’t cover step 1 above which is needed. (HSPL2.08)
Additional Information
· Not all SD cards work well with WP7 and if you run into weird problem it might be that your SD card is not fully compatible with WP7. Try replacing it and see if it helps. It might be useful to read the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914780
· Please make sure you read the HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A thread by mskip as a lot of valuable information is available in the links he provided.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=987
Trouble Shooting
After step 3, my phone is stuck on HTC logo, I cannot go into MALGDR at all
· Make sure that HSPL2.08 is flashed or HSPL3 with 2.08 flashed
· Make sure you have the correct Radio installed by flashing the Radio again.
When Running DWI.exe it says error, USB Failed.
Try running as Administrator and read through http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914026

Does radio 2.12.xx etc support 576RAM? Since this radio is somewhat best for battery life and reception in the UK i've heard?
Yes, I have used the 2.12.xx Radio as well and it should work fine.
Also after step 3, my phone is stuck on HTC logo, I cannot go into MALGDR at all :\?
Any help?
Try pulling out our USB cable and see if it gets past it. If not try reflashing Magldr...but USB cable still plugged in might stop you at the HTC screen while booting the phone...happened with me once. Let me know...
Still not working :\, I reflashed MAGLDR but it still stuck on HTC logo with white background. I tried removing usb etc as well. !!
Which Magldr did you use...and maybe try another radio. I used the 2.15 radio on installaton and after that flashed the 2.12 and then 2.14. Maybe see what happens if you use the 2.15 radio and flash magldr again after that.
Quick question...did you boot into Magldr by holding the power button down and keeping it in when powering up? Meaning...does that part work to get you into Magldr...
I could't get into MAGDLR at all. After it finishes flashing it gets stuck on HTC Logo. I took battery out waited 30 seconds, then tried going into MAGLDR but it goes straight into HTC Logo.
So far i've reflashed 2.15.xx, then flashed ROMUltility.exe etc and its still stuck on HTC Logo? Have I bricked my phone :O???
I used MAGLDR 1.13, the weird thing is that when I flash, it goes straight to 100% really quick, instead of getting stuck at 96% that you mentioned.
Please help me out xP
EDIT: Problem solved, I installed HSPL2 and flashed a 1.42. I needed to install HSPL3 and flash 2.08. My bad haha! Its all good now, downloading WP7 ROMs now ! mwhahahah

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 :

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.

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!

Please explain to me how this is related to "Android NAND Development" ?
And once that is done, would you like to calm down and use a better translator as from what you just posted above, i seem to make out nothing other than the fact English is not your native language.
All I know is:
- make sure you have the latest OFFICIAL ROM for your device
- flash it via SD
- flashing an original ROM from the SD if you have HSPL and a custom ROM will cause the process to reboot at some point; this is normal, and the update process should continue (you write that it fails on radio, but you didn't mention what exactly happens)
If flashing an original ROM doesn't work, then I'd wager your HD2 is busted.
In what way are you developing for HD2 NAND ROMs? Also, your device is not bricked if you can access the tricolour bootloader. The post above pretty much sums up any useful info I could give.
If your HD2 gives short 7 vibrates, its time for replacement. thats a panic vibrate by the processor. one of your chips is on its way out. this should be connected to temperature as well. keep it cool and without power for few hours, and it mught revive. but just for time being. it might worsen with time.
and please better translator.
Oh please, sorry for my English !
I do my best to try to make me understand!
Here is an International forum and here we all speak English!
have you ever tried to translate from English into Italian? is almost incomprehensible, anyway if someone does it, I try to do everything possible to understand him, and answer !
comfortable life to have all the information in their native language huh?
you know what ?, we Italians are so uncivilized, that where I work in IT department of a large company,
with Indian colleagues, who deal with Unix, we communicate on English! Find the same in other countries.....

1-Leo don't boot OS
2-Leo go on BootLoader (HSPL2.08)
3-Flash from SD , nbh extracted from original HTC_Leo_update. FAIL!
4-Overwrite HSPL, whit Other HSPL version or respective SPL (2.08) FAIL
5-mtty (bootloader commands) Task 29, Task 28, Task 2a, execute but not solving the problem, maybe is not nand format or bad block related....
Can you please say something different from the fact that Leo does not go?, like spl code to investigate what kind of hardware fault?

[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 !!

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 tasIt29. 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.

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

The thing is that I can't get any ROM's to finish installing...in the SD card the power button does not work...and in the computer the fartest I gotten was 99% but always stops and gives me error ussualy Error 262. Ireally don't know what to do. MY friend said he took it to an Asian Guy...I noticed that the battery S/N does not match the phone...can this have an effect...I haven't been able to flash any ROMS successfully not even the debranded stock. I flashed several phones and installed many different custom firmwares but this phone has been a real challenge...I'm over 2 weeks in...Thanks for the help thus far you guys are the best...
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..
Thanks
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
HD2 Toolkit 4.2.0.1; ( contains task 29, magldr and recovery and also HSPL)

it's revived!

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 ?

i bricked my hd2

plzz help..
i flashed hspl 3'
then i flashed a rom..
after installation
it went blanked
never came on no how\
no power wat so ever...
cud this be fixed
or is it needed jtag service..?
if you really did excatly what you write here, and flashed a WP7 ROM, which I suspect since you post in the WP7 sub forum (but why in dev and not in Q&A section?), it's no surprise that your HD2 is bricked. It's written about 100 times here in XDA how to flash a WP7 ROM: 0.) check if you have the correct radio 1.) download HSPL4, flash 2.08HSPL. 2.) Flash MAGLDR 1.13. 3.) go to USB flasher in MAGLDR and flash your WP7 ROM. You could have found the instructions for example here, here, there and in the Q&A forum.
If flashing the stock ROM via sd card fails, you will probably need JTAG.

did you use HSPL v3 and flash HSPL 2.08
or you flash HSPL 3.03?
if you flash HSPL 3.0 that is error.... for Android and WP7 you must flash HSPL 2.08... no matter if you use HSPL v3 or v4 you must flash HSPL 2.08... if you do this mistake, simply flash HSPL 2.08
also many problems can do fix with HD2 NAND Toolkit

Hey there,
I once had this also......thought i bricked it to. But after some research i found out that 1 of the 3 pins from the battery was bend.......so i bend it back and whooooof i had power again.
Just a thought ....!
Greetz,
Mazzie
yea bro..
dis is my first time owning a (wp)
dis is wat i flashed
hspl 3..i clicked 2.08
it said (we've hacked your phone) on the phone screen
jus after i install ruu on the pc
dis -RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
it started runnng a percentage of the rom on my phone
it completed...
after the phone just went off...
n nothing after...
it wont connect to pc
it wont take battery charge...
i have no idea wats goin ...
plzz hellp out ah bro ...
If i read the steps you made correctly... It looks that bootloader should be OK.
If you hold the volDown and powerButton. You see the tricolor screen? The bootloader?
If YES that it should be fine. You can connect the phone with USB cable and Flash diferent rom. It looks that only the rom flash went wrong.
no sorry man ...still it doesnt comes on...
it wont even charge also...
any ideas...
som say if its bricked ,it wont charge..
idk
here you can find original WM6.5 ROM (3.14.405.2)
http://www.htc.com/europe/help/htc-hd2/#download
if this flashed OK, andyou want WP7, try this;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833
- Flash HSPL 2.08 if needed
- prepare formatted FAT32 microSD card and isert it in phone
- Flash MAGLDR 1.13
- in MAGLDR use:
* 10. Services, 4. UseLast24NAND
* 10. Services, 5. ClearSD MDR
* 5. USB Flasher and run DWI.exe to flash ROM
- do hard reset (Settings - About - reset my phone)
if nothing helps, try HD2 NAND Toolkit and with task29 wipe all from phone memory...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090783
but if i does get the 3 colour screen...absolutely no power
would any of the above work still...?
this would be the thread of my choice to follow flashing instructions, but if you can't get into the bootloader anymore, I don't think there's much you or we can do.
yea no boot loader screen man...
so u'll suggest the jtag service..?
all repair shops r closed till 2012 ..
bdw im located in trinidad

yeah i did the same thing and bricked my phone I think you flashed the wrong rom thats for uk you! need usa!
if it realy is bricked i can direct you to the guy who fixd mine he only charged me 40$ i was pritty happy with his service!
I BELEVE THAT ROM IS NOT FOR YOUR REGEN!
i dont know ware trinidad is or what version of the phone you have
but this is the rom i first flashed to get started!
RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship.exe
According to the descriptions you gave, you have installed bootloader correctly. It seems somehow you battery has completely drawn out.
After MAGLDR installed, battery won't charge when the phone is off. Check with another battery with some power or use external charger to charge your battery.
Arrange another Battery
It seems you battery is completely discharged, I got similar situation once, I arranged another battery from my friend and after re flashing WM6.5 it was fine. although Right now I am on WM6.5 + MccMBoxmaX GS V 11 [Sense 2.1+3.0] 3D Super smooth.
Don't Worry just arrange another battery and you should get it working again.
