Updated ROM & Radio Now Runs very sow - HD2 General

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

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.

[SOLVED] Help, installed wrong ROM (european), now stuck with "Stick Together" screen

[SOLVED] Help, installed wrong ROM (european), now stuck with "Stick Together" screen
I bought a T mobile USA HTC HD2 phone in the U.S. and tried to install Artemis ROM which is for european phones only.
So now I'm stuck with the pink welcome logo ("stick together").
If I press the volume button and soft reset, I can see the screen with my HSPL.
I tried to do hard reset, but it didn't work.
Please help me how to roll back to original rom, or to install any eligible for T mobile usa rom.
Thank you!
Sweet, so that means you are able to get into bootloader?
Just flash task29 then flash a tmous rom
Thanks for the reply.
Could you please exlpain what task29 is and how to do this? Or where I can find the info.
I am a complete noob in this stuff (obviously).
Thank you
Remove SD Card, and Sim Card....
First get into bootloader by holding down the volume down button and power on the device.
next down load this file and run it as administrator: Follow the prompts and instructions.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5848003&postcount=19
When it hits 100% get ready to hold down the volume button again.... the HD2 will reboot and holding down the volume button will get you back into the bootloader.
Now get a US compatible rom and flash it the same way you just did the Task29. This time when its done flashing remove the battery and re insert your SD card and Sim.... let the phone boot up and you will be good to go.
Hope that Makes sense lol.
illconn, thank you for detailed answer!
I'll try it when I'm home. The only thing though is where can I find the US compatible ROM?
update
I got, I thought I'd need official T Mobile's ROM from their web site, but I'll be able to use any of the ROMs available in XDA. Right?
to be safe i would use the any of the ones in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653114
Once you read up a little more on here, and understand how some of the things work you can see there are a few more roms that you can use.
But before you can do any of that you need to make sure your phone has the right HSPL... there is a SSPL but just do the HSPL its easy.... now if you have already done this then great. If not start by reading here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
GL and welcome to the world of custimization!!
Yeah, I decided to try to understand the process of changin the ROM.
Now I understand that SPL boots the device. And HSPL allows to boot custom ROMs.
So what is task29 for?
Task29 pretty much formats the internal memory.... although putting a new rom on the device erases, it sometimes leave bits and pieces of the old roms.... so its recomended you Task29 before a new rom so that you dont have any complications later. For example some people will have a lot of freezing, or programs crash, once they task29 and reflash problem solved.
HTH
Thank you!
And last thing, just want to make sure everything is ok, not to repeat the same mistake. When I go to the bootloader, I get Red-Green -Blue-White screen with this data:
PB81120 HX-B3
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x40
Serial
That's okay to do the custom ROM, right?

Yes that is correct; by it showing "CotullaHSPL" that means you HSPL'd your phone and can download any compatable ROM onto your device, but just as posted above use task29. I was afraid to use it myself but after flashing my phone now about 30 times I've gotten over it.
Here is the link to the stock ROM's :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655653
if you use the 2.10.0 it will be back to stock. (but you can still burn ROM's onto your phone) because it won't erase you HSPL, if you run it from your computer.
Make sense?
Guys! Thank you so much! I installed Kumar's ROM. It works like a charm!
I gained so much experience, and fixed the device. I'm so happy! Thank you again. Thank you
installed the wrong ROM for ATOM
i was looking for a WM 6.5 rom for atom and little did i realized that ive downloaded the ROM for exec. it did installed fine in my ATOM but it always bugs me when it is booting up. it only shows the boot screen with ATOM exec LOGO and suddenly shuts down. i was trying to install back the old rom but it says "The ROM that i am trying to install is not designed to work for this device...". is there any way i could remove the atom exec rom in my device and install my old ROM? i badly need help and this is the last place i could get them. thanks very much! any help will greatly be appreciated. More Power XDA-Dev Gurus.
My Device is: O2 ATOM

Wow. Number one, triple posting THE SAME QUESTION. Uhm, no. Number two, this is the HD2 or LEO section, NOT THE ATOM ONE. You won' t get any help here, you need to go post in the atom section.
Gotta say....I did the same thing as |OP|....this thread is making me very comfortable to fix my problem. Kudos to you guys for being patient with |OP|...it helped another newbiew
I talked to the number on #1 post and all I got is that I must ship the old one first. I told him about my location that shipment would be problem (from me to them, I can arrange shipment to US address and resend to me). Damn, now I must get it on my own for $50 or how much they cost (no ebay, they are mostly scams). Plus I got no Transformers, the card broke down and I had to format it (didn't help for fixing the freezing issue).
I talked to them over Skype though, because.. well I live in Europe. I'm not sure he understood me well, I have a sore throat and I'm having obstacles talking .

Worst HD2 expeience.

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 !!!

*STUCK* Help Me to Help Him

Hey guys,
I'm in need of solution to an annoying problem.
Earlier today one of the HD2 Android chefs, Motoman, shattered his Hd2 beyond repair. Luckily, his friend had left an Hd2 at his place assuming it was bricked. The device is a tmous HD2 (fairly new) that Motoman previously Hard-SPL'd. The device had worked fine for a while after that and started acting this way out of nowhere.. It can still enter bootloader but when booting normally it won't get past the splash screen.. the weird part is that the red bootup numbers don't show at all. Bootloader shows that hspl is on the device (as shown below)
Code:
PB81120 SS-B3
SPL-2.08.hspl 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x50
I've tried suggested all solutions I can think of including:
- Hard reset
- Task29
- Flashing Radios (yes, the correct versions)
- Flash stock using standard RUU (2.10 | 2.13 | 3.14)
- Flash stock using flashaholicRUU (2.10 | 2.13 | 3.14)
- Removing HSPL and then flashing stock
- Replacing HSPL and then flashing stock
NOTES:
- Can't flash via SD because he only has the stock sandisk 16gb
- When he had tried to flash the first time (after the half-brickness occured) the RUU didn't show a current OS image.. as if the device task29'd itself.
- The flash completes with success everytime and the splash screen changes with the different rom flashing attempts so it's flashing correctly but there seems to be some sort of block on boot..
- The device was mainly used to run android.
So........... is this a hardware issue?
Anyone out there?
This is what happened to my HD2 which leaves the reason why I need to get this other one fixed .
Try booting without the SDcard inserted, maybe its the sdcard causing the issue?
the only thing u could do is get a sd card 2 0r 1gig and try to flash a rom from that
Any luck yet moto? Were you able to find a 1 or 2GB microsd card and give it a try?
Hoping for the best...
R
Whythe HD2 willboot without an SDcard, maybe the sd port is bad, I would think getting the phone to boot is the primary issue here? The idea is to elminiate all possibilities, and the SDcard is the first thing I would remove and try booting.
tried a different battery and with no sd card?
Uhmmm this is kinda a know issues on the LEO1.5.
A lot of Bootloader issues..
I would say reflash bootloader with JTAG.

Well I called a local cell repair store to see how much a new screen would be and I told them the situation I was in and they said to come in so they could look at it.

[HELP NEEDED] Stuck in white bootscreen with no connection

Hey all,
Maybe someone can help me out.
Two weeks ago i installed andoid on my HTC HD2.
I used HPSL, radio 2.15.50.14, MAGLDR112 and NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V2.1_NAND. A few days ago, without any reason i got a white bootscreen and i still have it
What a did so far:
* New HSPL3, but the radio didn't connected anymore, error 270.
* A new MAGLDR, i reached 100% in a blink, but then an error 270.
* Using a SD with the original leoimg, i get a (00018003 radio fail) error after a few % and the update failed.
* task29, but again no connection. (after 5 min error 262)
* new USB drivers installed for windows 7 and i also tried it on an windows Xp computer.
So far i only reached my 4 colored screen with:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08. HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x30
* The original rom was RUU_Leo_S_HTC_NLD_3.14.404.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship
Last question, how can i check that the batttery is stil oke for flashing.
Anyone who has a clue what to do?
Thanks in advance.
greetz!

Mate, I think you´ve done everything. HSPL and Radio ROM versions correct etc.
Since I see more and more people reporting similar problems like you, I get the feeling that some Android builds might have some strange effects on Radio ROMs.
There are too many people with SPL and Radio ROM problems, eg. stuck in bootloader or at the white startup screen.
This didn´t happen at this pace before Android NAND.
Only 1 question though:
Did you try to flash the original ROM using RUU.exe, SSPL or LeuCustomRUU via USB, without having the SIM and the SD card inserted? In rare cases, either one or both were trouble makers...
EDIT: Second question:
What kind of SD card did you try? Bigger cards seem more problematic, too.
I used a 2 gb micro SD card to go back to the original Rom.
I didn't tried to go back to original ROM using USB, because of the connecting problems. So that i'm gonna do now. Any suggestions which to use best?
After your post i tried to the flash with (and without) the formatted sd and the simcard, unfortunatelly i didn't work.
For last your question i can say that connect your phone to PC when it is off. Then keep down "volume down" button and switch on your phone. You get 4 colored screen. On bottom you can see USB word. Let phone for minimum 1h. And you get more 50% charged battery.
After hour you can flash back to original rom or to MAGLDR and forward normally flash android nand. You dont need disconnect or switch off before flash your phone.
Hope helps.
@tictac0566
Thanks for the options!
I tried the options mentioned in question 1, the problem is the connection USB/Radio. SSPL seems to work, but after 1% again connection error.
After a few test it must be the radio.
I tried to flash only a new radio using LEOIMG, after 99% i get the same error as LEOIMG an original Rom (00018003 radio fail)
With HPSL3_PKG i also can't go back to SPL 2.08.000.
So the problem must be there.
Anyone has an idea?? Can i use another radio? If yes, than which?
Thanks!
Still no solution
Tried many things, still the radio is not working.
It could be also HPSL3, because i can't go back to spl 2.08 (or any other (h)spl with the app.
Anyone has an idea??
Just trying to help here, but have you tried doing everything from the start?
task29 and everything else?
Hey i seem to have the same problem as you except my white screen wasnt after a flash, it just randomly went white one day and wouldnt boot.
I have tried MTTY, i can connect via usb but after formatting via MTTY and then attempting to flash a new rom (ship and custom) it just stays on 0% and doesnt do anything else.
Sorry to hijack thread just thought whilst people are looking they can help me too

Can you go into bootloader? If you can then your problem can be solved. The problem you are having might have been because you unintentionaly installed or uninstalled a programm and that corrupted your rom.
To both of you. Try to flash using the leoimg.nbh step. If it doesn't work then the rom you used is not compactible with your device, try another till you find one that will work with your device. I know it is tiring to do something like that, here a tip from me, the rom you are expected to use in this process must be in the native language of your phone or else it will not work. You can't just use any stockrom to do it. I hope it helps.

Thanks for the advice, but all the roms i tried i got a radio fail during flashing with leoimg.nbbh.
Maybe your HSPL is faulty ? Did you try to re-HSPL your device using HSPL.exe ?

Yes i tried, but mine HD2 stays on SPL-2.08 HPSL.
I used HSPL3_PKG and HSPL2 in different but still SPL-2.08 HSPL.
Maybe there's where my problems are, but i als can be an corrupt radio.
Anyone an other way to back to SPL 2.08.000 or how to fix the radio?
Then your best bet is to flash with a goldcard

Yes i can get into bootloader. I have tried using MTTY task 29 to format the device then i searched on the HTC site for a compatible ROM. Turns out the only one that doesnt give a negative response when i type in my serial number is the ROM from Taiwan. Tried flashing that using the SD card method and the USB method. Sd card method hangs at 0% and i get a connection error in USB method. I have also tried the latest ROM from Dutty.
If a ROM is not compatible how do you know? Does it hang at 0% or does it finish loading and then wont boot from there.
I have even tried flashing just a radio with the same results.

Yes i tried all different types of HSPL and even SSPL. From the bootloader screen i run the .exe from the computer and it goes through and says 'operation finished successfully'
But when i get back to the bootloader it still says the same HSPL, which is 1.66
Also to note when i power on the device i can hear a small 'click' from it. Could be much worse and be a hardware problem?
Still no solution.
Oke guys, thanks for answering my threat so far!
Still trying to get my HTC back to life.
Is it possible that my problem is in HSPL? (see attachments)
After the white screen i tried to reinstall HPSL 2, 3 and 1, but during the instal my HTC reboot (without the signal "We Hacked It"
I also tried different SD card for LEOIMG, still radio fail 00018003.
One thing i didn't tried is using a goldcard, i downloaded the app but i need a working HTC HD2 to make the card.
Anyone?
No you don't, there you go :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=874304
Goldcard is the old method to install a custom rom way before HSPL became popular
so if HSPL don't work then Goldcard wont as well but hey you can still try
I think its more of a hardware problem now since all attempts for software repair is not successful. I had the same situation as yours, white screen then radio fail, tried all solutions but still no luck
sameeeeee
i have the same problem 100%
i already try all these solution and no one is worked
however, some one told me that maybe the problem with the Flash memory of my HD2 because he already try to solve / or already solve such problem "but unfortunately he lost the tools he was used"
this tools is can check the memory and told which memory chunk is corrupted
please if any one know this tools or had it please posted it on.....
That app should be Task 29.

Firstly its "ROM" not "room".
What do you mean "with triangle" ??
Which HD2 do you have and which ROM did you try flashing?
Can you get into tri-color bootloader mode?
Sorry i post my thread quickly. Yes i tried to flash a ROM, i have HD2 512MB. I tried to flash a 3.14.405 rom. triangle - i can get in tri-color bootloader mode, but when i try also flash original rom there is no result, it crashes on 9 or 17%. Triangle is a sign when i switch on a device, i believe it means ther eis no windows/rom on device

your device is not bricked... get into bootloader and do a task 29 (LOOK IT UP)...
Then start from scratch... Magldr, then whatever ROM you want.
Can you explain me? Please step by step... Thanks in advance

Possible fix stuck bricked hd2 radio no rsa information
Please read the whole post first sorry about the mess it is my first post thanks to everyone here on xda who came up with everything i used to do this There is guides for this xda has a lovely list of tmous roms if you are on t mobile in the us http://www.xdafil.es/index.php?path=HD2/TMOUS/
i would start with the RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.02.531.MASD_S__Radio_Signed_15.29.50.07U_2.06.50.04_TeleNav-5.5.42.zip
extract the .exe file if it has one than extract the RUU_signed.nbh from the .exe file using win war or 7 zip than rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and place it on a newly formatted microsd not a microsdhc and i had problems with anything over class 4
place it in your phone and hold the volume down button and power button as loading comes up let off volume down power button will start the flash(i was only able to do complete flashes in the freezer if not it would hang or get radio errors)
i also had a tmous which did not want to flash the radio i would get an an error and rsa fail it sounds crazy but i wrapped it in plastic and stuck it in the freezer for a while before and during the flash this was the only way i could install the radio and actually see rgd information on boot screen after this first one you will have an old test rom with an old spl you cannot change to hspl from here i also was not able to go straight to 2.10, i had to step up from RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.03.531.6_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.50.23_3_Test.zip, to RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.03.531.6_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.50.23_3_Test.zip the same way i did the first one,hard resetting after each one and let it open windows completely to know it is working. than i believe there is an hspl3 file somewhere out there with all thanks to DarkForces Team HardSPL3 by bepe and Cotulla i will try to attach it that will work with spl 2.02 wich you should now be on now you can download your radio in the master radio thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
i also just renamed the ruu_signed.nbh to LEOIMG.nbh and ran through sd i seem to have problems through usb and i was trying to be careful with the radio
once you got the radio you want you could flash the rom preferably running task 29 before or get yourself magldr to install through nand i also stuck my laptop an the freezer with the phone to get wp7 completely installed i did all this mess with a phone that had a broken screen i think there is like thermal compound over the processor to the case that is not on right and overheats when not in the operating system like a crappy old laptop with its fans full of stuff trying to install xp. and while a stock rom was being installed the usb was pulled during the radio installation i hope this helps i belive i saw one post to stick it in the freezer out of everything that i think helped the most.i also notice i have to put it in the freezer at boot too sometimes or i will get a fatal hit error i think its just over heating..... i also have an hd2 which has never been opened before that i have never had to stick in the freezer it gets flashed quite abit right now running gingerbread on normal hd2 and wp7 dual boot android 2.2 on the one i had to freeze i hope this helps i was here for weeks reading reading i was stumped cus my first hd2 and g1 were so eazy i will update this post once i stop being lazy and open the phone again to replace the goop to see if that is the problem
Thank you for reading my jumble and thanks again to all you phone heads here on xda which without you none of this would be possible and i would not have wp7 and gingerbread on my hd2 : D
I did a task29, flash a ROM succesfully, but now it' s stucked in HTC loading mode (Shows a HTC and nothing happens)

no luck at all I tried it once and have succesfull rom update, but it stucks when started with HTC logo, i tried second time and still no luck. Please help me.. all the time now also for original rom it says that this room is not for that device
original rom
you have to find the original rom shipped with your phone like here i am tmobile usa roms you have to find your carrier and country and start with one of the first ones i started with my second one RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.02.531.MASD_S__Radio_Signed_15.29.50.07U_2.06.50.04_TeleNav-5.5.42.zip and i kept getting stuck screens when it was hot turn it off maby find some silica gel (lil rocks that come with everything to absorb water) wrap it in plastic and throw it in the freezer does the back of the phone get real hot during flash
i have shipped original rom, still no luck
not the newest one
you need one of the first test roms this was the only way i got mine to work i had to go from 2.02 to 2.03 to 2.05 hard resetting after each install making sure they completely went in what carrier are you and where are you
Still stuck?
Download HSPL 3.zip from page 1,
Run the program;
a) select 2.08.000 (not HSPL) and you can flash stock (HTC) ROM with no damage or aftermarket changes on your phone.
b) select 2.08.HSPL and you can flash whatever you want
Install MAGLDR 1.13
Flash ROM
Make sure you follow the instructions EXACTLY. You can find these all over XDA, look at all of my posts if you need to.

Hi, thanks a lot. Only, SPL for original rom was 1.42000 is it ok to flash with 2.08.000 ? And why i should install MAGLDR 1.3 ? Thanks in advance,
Ok, now i dont understand anything. My original SPL was 1.42, i did Hardspl 3, after that tried flash original rom, process stuck on 96%, after that i tried once again stuck on 9% and says rom not compatible with device. And its like a hidden circle, my phone is acting like that all the time. I tried task29, tried all HSPL, also 1.4200, 1.66 and so on. Can anybody help me? my skype nick is martins.prieditis , maybe someone can assist me?
Ok now its fixed. I did a HSPL4, due to which original rom freeze on 0%, but 3.14 didnt start up on loading OS (white screen with HTC logo))or freeze on 99%. Than went back to shipped 1.42, stock room succesfylly flashed and did a SSPL_RUU. Now the only problem is that my LEO restarts when it gets hot. Any ideas how to fix it?
Thanks all for youre help (regarding my previous issue) !
Overheating??
As mrpoe stated in post 9, One of his phone had to be put in the freezer to be able to flash anything otherwise it will get hot and freeze.
Also the motherboard is most likely broken and you cannot get it to work without freezing or it will keep rebooting...
The best thing to do if you still have warranty is to Keep stock SPL and stock WM6.5 and return for warranty.
It will not function the same again.
