Ok, guys I REALLY NEED HELP WITH MY TMOUS HD2.
I currently have HSPL 2.08 but everytime i go into the bootloader and install a WinMo 6.5 Rom it gets stucked at 8% percent for awhile then goes to 100. After i installed it, it gets stuck on T-Mobile, Stick Together screen with the R G B thing on the bottom.
I had NAND on my HD2 but it keeps freezing in every rom anytime I use data connection, recieve calls, or use browser or anything that uses the Data Or T-Mobile Connection. So i decide to reflash everything starting with Radio, and I recently installed Radio 2.15 something like that in A radio thread somewhere on the forums. I chose that one because im assuming it's the newest one. I flashed it, and removed MAGLDR, and etc. I currently tried using Task29 and flashed stock 2.08 radio but had the same problems. I CANNOT FLASH ANY ROMS. I TRIED REFLASHING MAGLDR AND CWM AND I CANT GET INTO RECOVERY I GET A FATAL ERROR1. Should return the HD2 to T-Mobile? They don't sell the HD2 anymore so i assume HTC will have to give me one. I'm currently deciding the only choice i have is to return my HD2 to T-Mobile. I flashed SPL 2.08 so it's back to stock. I cannot install or load any roms without it being stuck in the T-Mobile screen. Any help? Or i just have to replace it with a new one?

your phone is currently out of warranty, do not send it to HTC.
Download the tmobile stock ROM by going to the tmobile website > support and they will aks you for your IMEI and SN, enter it and it will give you a download for the stock ROM.
Download the ROM, then extract the file.
Take the .nbh file and rename it to LEOIMG.NBH
put that on the root of your 8gb or less SD card, pop it in, get into bootloader, and hit the power button when it tells you to.
IF this fails it sounds like a hardware issue.
Put your phone in a plastic bag and stick it in th fridge for 10 minutes, take it out and reflash as above, after flash call HTC on a warranty claim because your phone will be stock and hence back in warranty.
I've tried that, i only have a 16gb sd card and it works, but it gets stuck in the stick together crap. D:
seems to be cropping up every few days lately, this problem, though it's always been around. 'stuck radio', 'spl wont change ' 'flash fails at 8/9/10%' and variants thereof, , android gives fatal hit, nothing sticks when flashed, and teh phone never gets past teh rgd screen (cos the radio is shafted)
so i cant send it to htc? then wtf..?

Well from reading this thread I agree with samsamuel, it sounds like you are having a hardware problem as most of the HD2's that people have that show the symptoms Sam mentioned can not be fixed with software solutions. Bu there is the occasional anomaly that someone manages to bring back to life but even m,ost of them eventually completely get "stuck" and then they are useless.
As for what to do. You can take it or send it somewhere to replace the mainboard for you. Or just buy another HD2. That is it short and sweet.
so whats the update blahblah 13233?
Thanks guys with all the help possible, I went to a T-Mobile store and asked for a replacement, it should be coming in 2 days. I had to pay 5$ Shipping. So when I get my new phone I gotta give my old phone in some container or whatever and mail it to htc or give it to any T-Mobile store Thanks guys with giving me ideas. The people at T-Mobile said it's a hardware problem like the guy stated above. Oh well, I hope it doesn't happen again.

Hi guys, I've a problem with my HD2 and maybe one of you has an idea of how to fix this, because I really don't want to send it in for a repair
Anyway, my phone decided to refuse to boot out of nowhere. When it happened I had Artemis v9 or v10 installed on it. The funny thing is that I didn't flash anything when the problem occured.
Whenever I start the phone I only get a white screen. Luckily, I can still access the bootloader, even thought that didn't help me until now.
my guess is that the Radio is somehow corrupted, because when I try to flash a new one I get the error saying "Radio_V2 failed" and "Update Terminated". Not even flashing with task 29 works, because I get a "Error 270" and the phone restarts itself after like 4% of flashing.
I'm really out of ideas, I tried to flash a lot of different roms and radios, even the rom that the HD2 came shipped with.

What radio (if any) have you flashed? Check the ROM's dedicated thread you want to flash and see if the radio is compatible.
Im betting you've flashed the wrong radio
take the rom it was shipped with, name the nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh, copy it to your sd card and go into bootloader.
it will flash your old rom and should overwrite the old radio.
DN41
I installed Radio 2.06.51.07, which was recommended as far as I know.
I tried to install every "official" rom that I could find, but no matter if I apply them via SD card, USB or .exe, the install never finishes.
Tried to install just the OS without a radio and that worked, so I'm almost sure it is somehow radio related.
Now the problem is that I can't even send it to T-Mobile, because I there is no way to get rid of HSPL. BTW, it's the german T-Mobile we are talking about, not the US one. Is there a chance they won't notice the HSPL...?
so flash this one over sd-card: german t-mobile 1.72
what about performing hardreset? does the phone boot?
DN41
Tried flashing the TMO rom, but no luck either
Hard reset is strangly fast (only takes like 7 seconds) and only gives me a white screen after reboot. Apperently the HD2 shows me that HSPL is intsalled in the bootloader, but I can't change the SPL...
Already tried HSPL2, but no matter what option I choose, my bootloader always stays at 1.42 HSPL.
Edit: I would like to post pics of the error I get when flashing from the sd card or the bootloader screen, by the board rules don't want new users to post links.

I have exactly the same problem.
I believe radio hardware of my HD2 has failed.
This is not related to flashing an incompatible radio, as I have flashed 1.66 official ROM about three months ago and had no problems until now.
I got the white screen, when phone was in my pocket.
Not possible to update radio, update fails with "Radio_V2 failed" and "Update Terminated".
Not possible to flash any rom, flashing fails when it comes to radio part.
MTTY didn't help as well.
I see no way but to send it back for repair.
Hope they dont realize HSPL, as it is also not possible to change SPL right now.
Hi everybody, i am facing the same issues with my knew HD2. The fact is that i received it yesterday, while trying to flsah ENERGY ROM ..i flashed also the radio .. now got the white screen with the HTC green logo, and no way to hard reset ... phone doesn't boot, can't do anything !!!!!! volume + and volume - doesn't work !!! any idea any solution ?? I am about to try flashing with the memory card but no idea if it will work, im not sure cause even the HSPL doenst appear ... anu idea ?
I've got the same problem
Mine is a Telstra (Australian) HD2, and I've been using it for about 3 weeks fine. Then a few days ago, I took it out of my pocket, and it's dead. With my one, most of the time I just get a blank screen (no HTC), and most of the time it's slightly yellow.
I'm having the exact same problems, and have done everything suggested on this page, and others. I can't send mine back either.
I'm guessing since no one's replied, there's not really a solution to this.
If it is a failed radio, I'm amazed how easily they fail, and how many people seem to have this problem.
I have the same problem today. Anybody help?

i had the same problem with my Telstra T9193. i couldnt find any solutions so its on its way back to australia under warrenty.
I had a similar problem to this, though it appears I just fixed it. I can only imagine it's just a temporary fix though, as I previously managed to get it working and running Android only to white screen again the next day.
I did a hard reset and now it loaded the white HTC screen and nothing else. I tried installing a stock ROM from the MicroSD card and got the same "Update Terminated Update Fail" error because of the Radio. Retried the update about 3 times, and it eventually installed fine.
same here, i reloaded a stock from sd to relock it, which i highly recommend for anyone having this problem - in case it needs to go for repair and it just happens to boot..it took quite a few tries to have a proper flash and it booted only a few tries afterwards and then went back to only booting the white htc screen. so frustrating. and unfortunately for me it has to go back to australia for warrenty and will likely take ages to get back
I was stuck at multi color boot screen after hard reset. Tried multiple roms.
Solution: Use the 2.13 rom from here. Worked thankfully!

After being looooong on this forum, I finally got my first bricked HTC. I got all the same problems, white screen, no way to get HSPL gone, and no update via SD possible, no ROM update via USB in bootloader and no radio update possible...
Anybody knows how much it costs if I send it to HTC and they find yout it has been HSPL-ed?
Next with the bricked HD2
So definitely I´m in the same situation.. I have unusable SMARTPHONE!!
Even worse, because in my case i have no chance to send it to warranty repair - I was too disparate and curious so I opened my HD2 to look for an backup battery to erase everything that could have resist my countless tries to reflash, hardreset, flash RADIO, flash ROMs...
At the begging was the same (btw the same is still) : I took my phone and it did´t answer for waking it up. So I pressed red button to (soft)reset it. But it booted only to white screen (not the HTC one but "pure" withe w/o logo, w/o software info but with slightly yellow hue)
This was almost whole week ago... During that time I tried almost everything (I don´t have gold card - since I can´t get CID of any SD card I´m not able to have one and have installed HSPL 2.08 I´m ABLE to FLASH any ROM - even successfully reflashed cooked ROM via SD Card.!!) and the answer for me is probably some hardware problem....

I'm sorry, I just sent my to the repair center. Hope they will repair it under warranty. Otherwise it will cost me 100 Euro, just to find out I have to pay for the repairs. Then I can choose to let the device there (then I don't pay 100 euro) or let the device ship back (I pay 100 euro for a brick) or let them do the repairs which they will say how much it will cost on top of that 100 euro ..... stress ....

With the radio bricked there are only two things you can try to do:
1- You can go on using your hd2 without updating the radio. Try to download a rom without radio and install it, or ask a cook to prepare a rom (you can try an official rom if you want to recover the original SPL) without radio for you.
2 - Do what I did and sell the phone as bricked, because there's no way to unbrick radio system. I tried to save my HD2 by recovering the original SPL and sending the phone to the htc customer service. I got the phone back after 2 months and it was still radio bricked

upload a pix of your bootloader screen,I had similar kind of problem.I 've been through a lot of hardship dealing with the that.Maybe i could help u a bit.
So this passed tuesday i finally took my HD2 into the local tmobile dealer because the digitizer had broken so i needed a replacement. this was handled quickly and today i received the new HD2. i turned it on and it booted fine, then i plugged it into activesync, it synced, then i went to install hspl but cancelled halfway through realizing i wanted to flash a radio. so i opened customruu and began the flashing process but got some error message a few times. then i decided to unplug it after cancelling, take out the battery, then put it back in and turn on the device. only, it stopped on the very first splash screen, the one where it only says tmobile, not the red writing in the bottom left corner..
any help please?
[EDIT]: now the phone restarts after every time i unplug it.
[ANOTHER EDIT]: now when i try to load chuckydroidrom it starts the process but the percent stays at 0 and i get an error and it runs me through a recovery thing.
No one has any help??
I think things got messed up by canceling the hspl flash. Try and reflash it (hspl). If that doesn't work, I would (were it me) try and flash a stock ROM from off the sdcard. Then flash hspl and you should be good.
Why did you cancel the hspl flash anyway? I believe you need hspl to flash a radio.

Very strange problem.not able to flash any radio of rom after flashing tmobile official RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_3.14.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.42.50.09U_2.14.50.04_2_Ship rom.
every radio of rom upgrading process gets stuck at 0%.
Also my screen becomes dead freeze after the official rom boots up.
HSPL
Did you flash from your sd card or usb, because if its from sd card, hspl will be written over?
My guess is to download hspl3, choose the 2.08 hspl option, and you will be fine.
Judging from your post count you probably know that already, lol
Just trying to help.

luckily after flashing official Tmobile Rom,i patched my HSPL back to 2.08HSPL.and now i have installed NRGZ 21916 (Energy style(close to reference without cookie's home tab) ROM.but now im not able to use the phone as the touch screen is not working permanently.do u suspect a hardware problem here?
i am from India and my Tmobile Hd2 din come with warranty as we dont have Tmobile here.i had a word with the HTC Service center and they are saying that the device has a screen sensor problem and a replacement will cost me Rs7,000 INR.
i do not want to bare this cost.please all members,i request you to provide me a solution to this ridiculous problem.
Should i go ahead with Task 29? would it be safe.since i am able to upgrade roms successfully,i really dont find it a need to.but my touch screen is not working and the only way to interact with my phone is to connect it via mobile device center and then use MyMobiler.
Any kind of help would be highly appreciated.
Based on the ability to flash a rom I would look to restore it factory radio and rom. Then start over. I know this is a pain but it migh solve the issue. Maybe something is hosed in Ram during flash.
I had Moto Droid that the screen quit working after applying a CM rom. I had to flash over my original SBF and then re-root and apply a new rom. May have been over kill but wanted to be sure. Also had the old HTC Titan(XV6800 on Verizon) do the no touch screen thing on a rom flash.
In the end it doesnt hurt to try.

seems like hardware- you are having the same screen problem with different roms, correct? similar situation happened to me where the keys worked, but the screen stopped working (strangely, immediately after installing android.) tmo replaced the device. just my $.02.
As long as you have HardSPL on your device then I would sugest trying to flash some different Roms and see if any of them get rid of your TouchScreen problem.
Try Duttys Rom *HERE* first as it is a very stable Rom and is compatable with TMOUS HD2's. Flash via activesync, let it boot into the setup screen then take out the battery and hard reset.

What SPL do you have on your phone?
The only other thing I can sugest is to try installing a different HardSPL. If that doesnt fix the TouchScreen problem then im afraid your phone has some kind of HardWare problem.
Have you tried the original stock rom that would have come with the phone?

Hi Mark..thanks alot for your constant help.my uncle's HD2 had the Screen Digitizer problem.the Digitizer layer sets above the screen.So replacing just the digitizer costs 1500 INR and the entire screen costs ~6500 INR.(prices as reported by uncle after consulting the concerned person repairing the phone).
It was a Hardware problem finally detected !!!
id request u not to close this thread by next week.If the problem gets permanently fixed,i'll inform you here and then you may close this thread.

i flash any rom... did that, hard resetted, and then tried flashing again (energy referecne) using the sd card method
and i just get stuck on the "NRG" screen
tried the other custom ruu method getting the same results
using the radio 2.07.50.27
i put back the regular spl to flash a stock rom but still no luck
i know the phone isn't bricked i can get to boot loader, hard reset
any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance!

ok as from my knowledge you dont necessarily need to do task29 if its ur first time flashing (cuz i didnt and i got very good results) so i think u messed up in tht part.. but its ok, now you prolly want to first --> do a task29 again... second ---> get the nrg rom and flash it.... third -->get a radio of 2.10 or higher and flash tht....and just to play safe flash everything using custom ruu (i got better results using them...just saying)... also when u do each flash and its suspenseful dont boot up the phone, just take out the battery and back into bootloader.
hope this helps... report back lol
^thanks man
Okay so heres how it goes, my phone is def not bricked
custom ruu has only worked once for me
now whenever i try to use it it always gets stuck at 8%
i found that if i flash it at night and hard reset. wait til morning and turn on the phone
then it loads past the nrg screen and into the OS.
i'm currently trying to get it back to stock and i downloaded the tmobile update
but it doesnt seem to work, it also keeps stopping at 8%
i disable the anti virus stuff and i plug it in to the back of my computer
sounds like a defect
sorry to bust your bubble bro but it sounds like you got a classic case of a defective leo, i too did the same steps you did and it turns out my main board wasn't any good and the phone kept overheating, turns out when flashing custom roms they tend to put more pressure on the snapdragon then a regular stock t mobile rom. i know this sounds crazy but i believe it to be true, so with that said you got two options, one get back to t mobile customer care and get a replacement. or do what i did and find a repair shop and let them know that your leo either needs a new mainbaord or a new heatskin like mines did, it cost me 80 dollars which wasnt bad since my leo was a gift and i couldnt give it back to t mobile... hope that helps in some way
p.s. sorry for the edit but if you cant do either of those of what i suggested, try this get yourself a nice icepack nthe size of your phone and mount the leo on top of it whenever your using it, so that sucker wont overheat. once again i hope i helped
I bought my HD2 after having the Desire and I got hold of the network unlock key so was free to use any network. As i'm on Three I updated with a Generic ROM and all was fine for around a week and then I got the White Screen but a Soft Reset got me back running.
Now my ROM will load but the phone is so slow I dont know how to get it back to speed. Ive put the stock T Mobile ROM back on but this does not help.
What Can I do? I think after reading that it may be a radio issue but im not that clued up here so thought i'd ask at XDA whichg ive been using for years.
If I could send it to someone to get sorted out that would be easier and i'd cover the costs,m postage and the drink for dong it.
Any advice or takers please?
Regards
Jay

The unlock key applies to the phone, not the ROM. So I would flash a new ROM. You don't mention if yours is US or Euro model, it makes a difference when flashing.
could the problem be 3.14 ROM on non 3.03 spl?
enter bootloader, what does it say on the spl line?
what version ROM is running?

Not sure what the radio is as included with the ROM
Please help. Ive tried all types of ROMS etc and im sure its just an issue of the wrong ROM & Radio.
Will install the ROM but will just loop on first install even if i reset throughout
Liuke I said before if I could send to someone to fix it I would be most grateful.
The stock rom would be fine but would prefer the unbranded if posssible
Many thanks

NRG ROMS don't contain radios. You need to visit the first page, where they recommend radios.
I would suggest downloading the official ROM for your HD2 serial number from the HTC website. Then flash that from the SD card. This will put everything, including the radio, back on the device. Then you can go from there.
Many thanks for all the answers but their not helping unfortunately. I installed ther following a Laurentius26 ROM with the following radio 2.12.5.02_2 amd finally the phone booted up after a few hours and I could slowly make my way round the phone. To press the window key would take atleast 30 seconds top bring a response. I dont know what Is causing this and it seems like the wrong ROM & Radio is on as the phone used to fly on tjhe stock ROM.
Ive tried to reinstall the Tmobile ROM but it's just the same either way and any other ROM I try does the same.4
Is there anyway of cleaning off everything from the phone and starting again from scratch as it seems definantly that there is a conflict somewhere with the software.
I opened sys info on the phone when it was working and copied down the following just inase it helps.
OS Version 5.2.23148(23418.5.11)
Manilla Version 2.5.20212114.0
ROM Version 2.05 WWE
ROM Date 06/06/11
RADIO 2.12.5.02_2
Protocol Version 15.40.50.07U_2.12.5
Please HELP! Someone out there as i'm just about stuck and i've been playing with Smartphones since the first launch of the Orange Smartphone 10 years ago.
Many thanks in advance

flash task29 THEN flash another custom ROM, this will ensure any leftover **** gets erased, you might have something in NAND carrying over from ROM to ROM, none of the current radios will slow your ROM down like you're describing.
It's either this or hardware.
also try the above with your sd card and sim removed, its not unknown for a faulty card to play havoc with performance.
I tried task 28 and it never let me press the volume down at 99% so dont know if worked. Still running slow but it is running.
Wouldnt of thought was a HW issue as it was working fine last week. If I need to return to HTC where would I do that in the UK after installing standard T Mobile ROM?
Many thanks and any further help going on Flash 28 and how to do it successfully?
Regards
Jay
sorry task 29 LOL
I attempted Task 29 but after my device went straight into loading a ROM. I thought that Task 29 removed all ROMS. Info etc so you had to reinstall. What am I doing wrong as I followed the instructions to the letter from one of the posts on this excellent site.
Am getting really annoyed now. Is there someone who could do this for me if i send and pay for return postage and a drink please?
Any further info and will try again tonight one more time
Many thanks
Jay

I know that this may sound strange, but try formatting your SD card. When my phone starts behaving badly, fully formatting the SD solved the problem. Checking it for system file errors usually gives the same results, but doing a full format using the SD card formatter at first gives better results.
you probably have a ROM loaded in your SD card.
if your SD card root has a file called LEOIMG.NBH then it will try to flash it immediately on booting the phone, it's part of the SPL instructions. Delete or rename that file or cancel the flash.

I you mean me, no I don't flash through SD. but that's a good advice as well.
when the SD has severe System file errors, I noticed that my phone ran extremely slow. correcting those errors made my phone return to it's snappy self.
