ANybody can help me . i have a HD2 When tried to FLASH to any RADIO from 2.07 to 2.15 all failed at 96%. I have made a TASK29 also it fails at 96%. NOW cant install anything on it !
At first 2.15 flashed and after i made task29 it stop to install. Then i used 2.07 it flash, but again i used TASK29 and now when i retry to reinstall any RADIO, it fails at 96%.
Am using tasks29 because my HD2 is stuck in LOGO HTC. So am trying many ROM file for it to WORK but in VAIN !! I still can enter BOOTLOADER. Manage to install MAGLDR and WIN7 but never the phone was OK!
I was wondering if its a HARDWARE problem?
It usually takes a long time at 96%. Try leaving it for a while and see if it will complete. Mine took some time at 95%

Yep, mine hangs at 96% too. Maybe try this Task29 with Radio (check it's the right radio though)...

If you can get into BL dont worry you'll be able to flash. Just try everything again and give loader a moment.
Ok. I waited almost 30Mins ! is that ENOUGH?
But i Found that If i flash with this ROM (that has RADIO in it) - " Duttys_Leo_Sense_2.5_5.2.21907.5.0.93_1.80_ML_V4_Ship_EN " flash succESSfully but still i have the PROblEM of STUCK on HTC logo !
Again failed at 96%
Hello,
has anyone managed to resolve this problem?
I am having the same issue - radio and rom flash fails at 96%, I have tried even older radios and different roms with radio. Tried with HSPL 3.03 and 2.08.
When flashing from USB it always stops at 96% at hangs for 15mins then says fail.
If flashing from SD card then it just hangs indefinetely.
only the Duttys_Leo_Sense finishes flashes but the phone wont boot
Download this, flash it and and start from scratch. something went wrong along the way..but start from scratch and go again.
If you have trouble once you download. restart the phone holding the the power and volume down buttons. and you will get into bootloader..then connect phone and wait until it says usb and flash.

I have a EU version.

I have not looked to see if it is for the US or EU HD2. But seeing as you have a EU HD2 you have nothing to fear really as the EU can be flashed with any radio version with no bad effects. But the US HD2 can not be flashed with any radio version with a 51 in it or it will be hard bricked. The 51 radio versions were the first radio versions for the EU HD2.
also, try chillign teh phone for twenty mins in teh freezer, then quickly reinsert the sd and try to flash. It may help you get past the last few %
Unfortunately it didnt end well
HTC HD ROM update from USB stalled at 8% for more than 30mins.
Then I tried updating it from SD card when it failed instantly reverting to factory SPL.
And then I tried to use HSPL4 to put: SPL-208 instead of HSPL208. Phone said cracked it and after that it died.
Its completely bricked now, cannot turn it on - no key lights, no lcd
odd, these devices are very difficult to brick since if you mess up, just go into bootloader mode and reflash.

ahhh if only it was that simple. Check out the title of this thread, what you're suggesting is exactly what is failing. Look around, teh forum is stuffed full of this type of error. Sometimes it is solvable, sometimes not.
Hello, sorry for saying this but there is no solution to fix that. I had the same problem on friends HD2. It died with no reason, just rebooted. All you wrote is the same there, if you use newer radio stuck on 96%, older stuck in 97%. HSPL working ok, leoimg.nbh stuck on 8% and you getting ROM Update fail all times. That is hardware issuse and Radio ROM chip is damaged. We did not found any solution to fix that and even tryed xtc clip and all methods of instalation...
can u try flash HSPL first then the radio and then MGLDR...my problem is solve..
Hi.
I bought Hd2 yesterday, and I have a biiiig problem with it. It started perfectly - but after 5 min it shut down. It shows message about low battery, so I connected it into charger, orange led turned on. I tried to switch telephone on, but it freezes on white screen with HTC written. I tried soft-resets and hard-resets, even tried to install official rom - but installer is always freezing at 8%. I can get into BootLoader and phone is recognized by the PC after connecting USB cable. But this is all - i can't switch phone on, I can't install ROM...
What is wrong? Is it gonna work, or maybe it is totally bricked?
Radio flash stuck @ 96%
This seems to be the kiss of death for an HD2. I also have the same symptoms: stuck at 96% when trying to flash a radio. I have a US HD2 and I've flashed about 10 of these phones with no issues. This is the first one I've ever seen with this issue though. It was a friends phone that he wanted me to assemble. He gave it to me in pieces. When I assembled it, it wouldn't boot. So I flashed the stock ROM, but the flash won't complete. Fails at 8% or 11%. Tried flashing HSPL and it seems to work. But when trying to flash the radio it fails at 96% (it just hangs).
I was wondering if it has bad sectors on the partition or someting and if a J-tag service could fix this. Theoretically, it's supposed to be fixable if you can get into the bootloader. Oh well, into the junk box this HD2 motherboard goes until someone posts a fix.
I got the same problem can't not flash anything, and alway stucked at 96%.
Only thing I did to get it complete flashing radio, rom was put the phone in zip lock, and put in freezer for 10mins, took it out and plug in battery and flashing, at anytime, if the phone vibrating it will not accepting any data in, and it will stop at 96% and then i have to put in freezer again. Took me awhile to get everything boot up and got in windows 7 and play with it. But... the phone still rebooting it self, sometimes it will reboot after 5 mins or an hr when I am surfing webs or setting up the phone... Right now I am trying to get a different sim card to test out.
Seem more like hardware problem.
My problem is solved - I've got new motherboard....
NAND Toolkit
Have you guys tried to use NAND Toolkit?! it works fine for me, and never had issues flashing my HD2...

This phone has been giving me hell for a really long time.
In short; it don't work. It will flash but will never boot right.
When I got my HD2 it had the stock WinMo 6.5.3 ROM that worked perfectly. I played with booting Android off my flash drive but got the fast audio problem. So I flashed ChuckyDroidROM, and used that for a month with some different Android builds, all worked fairly well.
But then one day, it started crashing after a while of use. Sometimes it would just not let me unlock it, and other times it completely crashes and restarts. Every time it happened earlier and earlier after booting.
So I tried Task29 and putting the stock ROM back on it, no go. It crashes right after it boots.
Now I've flashed HSPL 2.08.HSPL, Radio 2.15.50.14, and MAGLDR 1.12. I'm trying to flash WP7 to it, but since the MAGLDR menu doesn't show up, I can't flash anything.
It boots into MAGLDR, but just shows "aMAGLDR V1.12, Build: 12 2011 XX:XX:XX, by Cotulla 2011" but nothing else. The menu doesn't show up, but it did once....
Any ideas? I'm desperate. I'm about to blow it up....
EDIT: Now it won't even f**king turn on!!!! And yes the battery is FULL
I'm having an issue with my HD2 also (even though I've flashed it successfully several times) so this sounds like a very, very isolated issue. The problem I'm having - disabled phone functions in WP7 - also appears to be an isolated issue. Sometimes these things can be the result of a bad flash. Give this thread a week. You're in the right place.

When your rebooting and the splash screen shows up are you holding down the power button to gain access to magldr options?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Did you took out your SD card? If no, take it out, try turn it on. If you can reach the boot (means the multicolors menu) than your good to flash.
I have the feeling that might be because of damaged SD card (similar issue I had). Hope that helps.
Good luck!

I can flash anything I want, it just never boots, or it boots and then crashes immediately. I have tried with and without my SD card/SIM card.
Wow it seems as if your doing every thing right. My suggestion is, Re-flash the stock Rom that came with the phone, Revert back to the original radio and spl. Call your sevice provider for a replacment phone as it sounds like its defective. Thats what i would do.

Go into Bootloader Flash a Stock Rom.
Then Update the Radio
Format SD -.- but backup your Data
and try to reflash MAGLDR
After that try to reflash Wp7 it should work
New developement:
It won't turn on, period. Nothing.
The power button does nothing, the reset button does nothing, nothing works.
The battery is at 4.1V, it's rated at 3.7V, would that cause the phone to not turn on?
Maybe a hardware failure.
Any warranty?
This happens when the phone over heats dont turn it for a while and dont have it conect it to the computer or anything when u try turn it on.

Hello, my friend brings me HTC HD2 T8585 yesterday. It seems like it's not T-mobile (white "call" and "end" buttons, no t-mobile label on the top). It freezes on "Energy star", just writes ROM and radio version on the bottom left and freezes. Now it has radio 2.09.51.xxx. If I try to update it to xx.50.xx it stops switching on, recognising by USB and charging at all. Totally bricked. But I have found strange way to reanimate it. I'm pulling battery out (for 5-10 minutes), reset HD2 few times by red button, insert it back, push reset few times again, plug USB cable inside, charging battery 5 minutes by external 5V adapter is also helps sometimes (now it has 3.85V), and sometimes it possible to switch it on (1 time on 10 tryings). When it switched on, it's possible to update radio back to xx.51.xx version and after that it switches on very distinctly, but freezes on Energy star again (it refuses to boot any flashed rom). It's possible to install android on this HTC with xx.50.xx radio. I did it and it works (but freezes then I'm trying to make a call). Of course to boot android on xx.50.xx I need to pull and insert battery, press reset and make special magic dance...
I have a loop here: to boot android I need new Radio Update.
To switch the phone on without magic spells I need old 2.09.51 Radio.
Sometimes it's possible to boot firmware on 2.09.51. I don't know how i got it, but after 5 minutes of freezing on "energy star" it booted up stock firmware i flashed before.
I don't know what to do. Is it hardware failure?
I'm not sure what you have, but there's no "energy star" on my device?!
any screenshots for the device/the screen that it freezes on?

by energy star, do you mean the energy rom boot screen? The energy rom WILL NOT boot with a ..51.. radio. It must have a ..50.. radio for it to work.
OR - have you been flashing custom boot screens? there is an 'energy star' bootscreen, made to look like a PC bios boot screen, is that what you mean?
flashing a radio without HSPL, , you are mistaken, that cannot be done.
we need more direct info to help, i'm afraid. Screen shots or at least full filenames of what you have flashed LAST would be great.

Okay I'll try to tell full story. This phone was previosly updated to custom W.M. 6.5 rom (by my friend's friend I don't know him directly). I don't know which rom he used. May be he changed splash screen (wow I found it! i always thought it's real boot time proccess for HTC HD2 ) . Yesterday my friend brought this phone to me with two problems: 1: slow and not stable booting (sometimes it freezed on splash screen 2: After (and if) it loads WM, it crashes in very short time to screen full of green colour. So I tryed to install Hyper Droid. First I downloaded HSPL4 and updated HSPL from 1.66.0000 to 2.08.HSPL . After that I tryed to install MAGLDR and phone showed only Energy Star splash screen. After short googling I decided to update radio. After updating it to 2.15.50 phone switched off and i was not able to switch it on (like described in this post). I disconnected battery and after few tryings it switched on and loads MAGLD, i prepared partition (150MB file) and update zipped rom from SD card. Between these steps I disconnected battery many times, because it was impossible to switch phone on after reboot. I spend about 2 hours and Android was installed but phone freezed after 2 minutes (charging animation stoped and it didn't respond on buttons). Also I got 100% freezing then I tryed to make a call.
I tryed different version of Radio (about 7) and found 2.x.51.x working more stable (phone switching on by pressing button or connecting usb cable) . 2.x.50.x all have same switching on issues ;( . Now I updated HSPL to 3.03.HSPL and found that it (?) resolved issue with charging LED (it stayed ON after usb cable disconnecting) . Now I'm downloading stock 1.66 region free firmware and will try to flash it..

I found LEO of my friend is from Singapoure (thanks this) ) s/n: SH0CLNW03xxx . I tryed my s\n on htc singapoure support site and now i'm downloading original firmware!
After further researching I decided this phone has battery/mainboard failure. It freezes and makes green screen of death randomly, especialy often under high power consuption or while disconnecting USB cable. I flashed Rom directly from SD card, because usb update didn't work for me. Now it has stock firmware with stock splash screen. 3.03.0000 SPL and 2.15.50 radio. I'm giving up. Thank you all, here are a lot of useful information.
Did you do a hard reset after flashing the stock ROM. if that didn't do the trick, you could send it to maintenance now that it has stock WinMo on it.
Yes i did hard reset, it didn't help, I think it's need a bit work with soldering dryer. May be CPU or other chip has bad connection to mainboard... I've found i can get 100% GSOD by shacking phone or knocking its back cover. I don't know why it has difference with 51 and 50 radio. Now if it's freezed i'm pulling out the battery for one minute, and it switches on with 95% warranty. With radio 51 it switches on without need of battery removing.
Hi, I just spent an hour researching this, but to no avail. So....
I bought today an HD2 of CL and it had Android Gingerbread installed. I entered bootloader and say that it had HSPL 2.08 installed so I tried to install WM 6.5 Stock ROM 3.14. It started flashing but at 8% it froze. I let it sit for about half an hour and it did not do anything. I unplugged it and took out battery. After I restarted it it said that the last flash failed and to try again. I plugged it in and tried again, but after I start flashing the phone vibrates seven times and stops at 8% again. On teh side note it seems that the phone is not charging as the redlight does not come on when I plugged it in.
It seems that I cannot enter the bootloader anymore as when I start the phone it goes into the "Flashing failed..." screen.
I am not sure what to do at this point, so I thought I would check before I destroy the phone any further. Thank you for your advice and sorry if I did not research enough.
It looks as if you have been sold a broken 2nd hand device. The vibrates usally means there is something wrong with the motherboard or processor. It would return it and ask for your money back!
yea i agree with the above, get your money back if poss.
Also, sticking at 8% (or 9 or 10) is a hint that the radio is stuck. if you ever get an sd card flash to start, look out for 'radio rsa fail' error.
Hello, and sorry for the post asking for assistance!
been driving me nuts for 2 days now, it seems i'm having a major case of melting HD2
it started with the phone freezing often, reboot solved it.
then, it went to having to unplug battery for a few, and, reboot fixed it.
now i'm at a constant white screen (no htc logo)
was running in Android but tryign to just get anything working for now.
i made the sd card leoimg.nbh with a custom rom to recover it, but i can't get it to finish
in red : Radio_V2 Fail
in blue : all the rest
tried to flash radio update, failed
tried to update the HSPL version (2.8one now) but no go, it shows "success" but in bootloader shows the same old version.
what can be the cause of this, exept memory nand being screwed?

Not alot to be done i think...
Keeps coming up on white screen.
Tries to flash HSPL (newer version) finishes but it still shows the same version when powering +volume MIN.
Tried to flash a Radio, comes up with an error Radio V2 error
Tried to push a ROM on there, gives a "image file is corrupted"
Tried what i found here on the different forum threads but....seems my HD2 gave up on me...or at least it's beyond my repair skills.
Thanks for those before me who gave suggestions on what to try, it's a damn sad day i loved that phone..
wts : one slightly bricked phone
Try to do a Task29. Use the HD2 Toolkit for that.
You have to JTAG it in order to recover it. RADIO_V2 means it's radio, and it's officially bricked. There's nothing you can do other than JTAG to recover it
Well, in a way i'm glad i have the answer now about the V2 being the radio ...
Thanks for the input guys, not sure i'm going to bother with the JTAG story, already ordered a replacement for my HD2 as it is, can't spend too much time without my phone.
Anyone knows if people are interested for the "bricked" HD2's? or how to reach people?
Hello XDA.
Huge problem over here.
I can't flash anything on my device (HD2, Europe) anymore.
Newest Radio-Rom, SPL-2.08.HSPL.
Tried everything listed in the forums, event tried to flash stock leoimg.nbh from sd. nothing.
Whenever I try to flash via USB, the screen is stuck at 0 % (independent from what I try to flash).
HSPL won't let me reflash it, get an error msg.
When flashing from sd, stuck at "loading..."
Hardreset (VolUp+VolDown+Power) works, but doesn't change anything.
I really tried E-VERY-THING, nothing seems to work.
Bootloader is starting up, even the white screen with the green HTC logo is showing up, but then: nothing.
Worked my ass of through hundreds of threads in dozens of forums.
This is my last chance.
Anybody? Thank you!

Probarly your phone is bricked yes.
You say you tried everything and nothing worked, then i think there is no option left. Maybe put it in the fridge or something for like 10 minutes?
To all:
I'm sure, its hspl 2.08, pic of bootloader on its way.
I tried Stock ROM from sd. Stock oben AND provider one.
Tried 2 different PCs. Will try XP 32bit when possible.
Please tell mehr, that here's a german Euthanasie a jtag device... or pleeeeease name another option...

... recently I tried to flash a whole new ROM. RadioROM was ok.Task29 went good, MAGLDR had problems. First time stuck at 4 % (Connection Error 262 (?)), second time at 96 % (also connection error), third time I held the data cable in the port, not too strong, but it worked this time. MAGLDR booted, but didn't show any options, just the header. So i did another Task29. From this time on, nothing worked anymore. :/
Anyone?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Also trying another sd-card atm, doesn't seem to work...
Sorry for double-posting,
but i was able to re-flash radiorom via sd. maybe this helps.

This is the most stupid bit of dangerous "advice" I've ever heard. Not only is a phone not "bricked" as long as the bootloader is working, but more importantly, "put it in a fridge" has never done anything good. It's an urban legend. If you feel like it you can try it on a broken harddisk right before getting out the black candles and the chicken blood, but it's completely useless.

Have you tried a different USB cable? Everything points to the connection, maybe your phone's USB port is shot.
Wouldn't this have been solved when flashing over sd-card?
RadioROM worked this way, whole stock package does not.
Tried different usb cables, different pcs. and different stock roms over sd.
so chances are good it's not bricked, if the bootloader works? I mean, it even boots to the green htc logo on white bg....
thanks
EDIT: Also, usb-port worked fine before flashing, it also works now, bootloader recognizes "USB".
EDIT2:
MTTY changed nothing. Task29 was succesfull (it seems), tried task 2a (that should format the WHOLE thing, like i unterstood) and 28, too, seemed succesfull, too, but my problem remains.
and why the hell can i flash a radio from sd but not a full stock rom? sd card is formatted in fat32 and 2 gig sized... tried all official roms...
and hspl still throws this error....
EDIT3:
Set up a VM with Win XP 32 bit. HSPL doesn't throw an error now, but it seems to take forever to install. Almost 10 Minutes and counting.
is this normal?
Didn't work.
Dont know what else to try, if nobody answers...
Think about sending it in to get JTAGed (Bootloader rewritten...)

This is the most stupid bit of dangerous "advice" I've ever heard. Not only is a phone not "bricked" as long as the bootloader is working, but more importantly, "put it in a fridge" has never done anything good. It's an urban legend. If you feel like it you can try it on a broken harddisk right before getting out the black candles and the chicken blood, but it's completely useless.

Why? I've seen it working. A friend bought a broken HD2, the seller said he couldn't flash anything and he had problems with camera and games before. So after dozens of tries, he put it into the fridge for half an hour and managed to flash magldr and a new rom. Well, the motherboard was faulty and he couldn't do almost anything because the phone suffered constant freezes and restarts when doing anything else than looking at the homescreen, but well, the fridge helped him a bit.
USB Port on the phone, USB Port on the computer, USB Cable, Drivers in the computer, Firewall or similar host security software on the computer - these are some of the things I'd double-check.
But a ROM in nbh format should still flash from SD- what exactly happens, does it not find it or not complete the flash? Does it throw any error code?
And did you see any bad blocks while on mtty?

No bad blocks, will check it again.
As said, USB-Port on phone seems ok to me, used 2 different drivers on 2 different pcs with 2 different data cables and 2 different OS. Firewall and Antivir disabled.
When flashing from SD leoimg.nbh seems to be found but it gets stuck at the grey screen with the blue "loading...". forever. no error code, not even an option to confirm or cancel the flash. cancelling the loading process with voldown failed. tried three different sd cards and all official stockroms that could possibly come in question for my phone.
But why was I able to flash the latest radiorom again?

Beats me. How long it you wait for the full ROM to flash though? I know you have tried a bunch, and am sure you would have waited long enough, but asking just in case. It might take as much as 10 minutes or more.
But ya, at the moment JTAG seems to be your best bet.
waited for almost 1,5 h now for an sd flash...
jtag seems more and more acceptable...
If tag is available, go for it.
There are a few variants of this problem, that I think of under the umbrella name of "stuck radio"
Usually its the radio that gets stuck, but sometimes the spl gets stuck too, or sometimes just the spl. Either way, some types of flash work whilst others don't (radio works hspl doesn't for example, or custom roms flash stock rooms dont ), or a flash seem to work but nothing changes, (hspl gives hacked it but spl doesn't change,or the flash hangs...
My guess is two causes, some being corruption of the software, some actual hardware...bad blocks at a critical area of memory perhaps.
There are one or two success threads with this family of problem, but hundreds with no successful outcome. Sometimes just flashing the oldest correct rom from SD does it, sometimes freezer trick works, (not an urban myth), sometimes just trying again and again works. Often though, nothing does, so if jtag is an easy option I'd take it.
Be warned though, it could be hardware, in which case it may not work.

... recently I tried to flash a whole new ROM. RadioROM was ok.Task29 went good, MAGLDR had problems. First time stuck at 4 % (Connection Error 262 (?)), second time at 96 % (also connection error), third time I held the data cable in the port, not too strong, but it worked this time. MAGLDR booted, but didn't show any options, just the header. So i did another Task29. From this time on, nothing worked anymore. :/
Anyone?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Also trying another sd-card atm, doesn't seem to work...

Looks like we have a winner ....
You said "flashing a Radio was OK" .. so we shouldn't be having a problem there. Also, a task29 went good, too.
You started having those problems during MAGLDR, but after you held the cable, everything went fine.
So in other words, during attempt 1 & 2 of MAGLDR flashing, you pulled the cable.
I know that pulling the cable midst a radio flash will 99% cause a brick.
Same with ROM with a Radio (but less chance).
But MAGLDR, I don't really know, maybe sam will help ?
