HD2 clone has different hardware structure. Its a DIFFERENT being
You shouldnot upgrade ANY of the files in XDA HD2 subforum, which was mean for original HD2. Sorry to say, I think your devices is semi brick

Congratulations. This is your prize for been a dumbass and flashing software to a device it was never meant for.
A HD2 clone is NOT a HD2, It just "looks" like one.
there's no such thing as HD2 dual sim. it's a clone. do you seee anything about it on the HTC official site? no! why do you think that is?
the Clone is just a different device disguised as an HD2. so it has different hardware and software specs. meaning it also needs different drivers. Flashing anything that's meant to be for HD2 is like somehow managing to install windows drivers on a mac OS, it won't work.
if you took a little time around the forum you'd have seen threads started by users with a clone, and all were told not to use anything that was meant for the HD2.
in your case it might be too late.
I know it isn't orginal HTC and it has different hardware. I didn't upgrade any orginal rom. I have used it's update files from this page bm-smartphone-reviews.blogspot.c*m
I just want to learn that does the touch panel need a driver or file for android?
I don't know, and I'm sure lots don't as well.
you have to look for people who actually got it working and see how they did it.
it probably needs some file in the kernel. but I don't recommend you start trying them out. I'm pretty baffled how you got android running in the first place.. unless it came with your device which means you shouldn't have tried updating anything.
if you can't get it back to what it was before, does it return to "original android" when hard reset? because that's what I think you should do.

I have read many posts here. Some have the same problem as I do. I have a well chinese cloned Elf0100. It has the HTC logo and everything but no name. It runs WM 6.0 PRO. Well I wanted to share with everyone who has this clone looking for answers. I have found the website to the manufacture/seller: DX
The reason why I joined this forum was to find out how I could flas my rom to WM 6.1. I never get past the 15% mark when using the uspl tool. When looking at this site, they have a image to download to upgrade the rom. And they made mention of someone maybe being able to alter it to WM 6.1. Any help would be great.
I also have one of these chinese HTC Touch knockoffs on my bookshelf. Never used it because I have an original HTC Touch, but would be great to be able to use this one too.
DX - Dealextreme - re-seller. I believe you cannot flash any of the ROMs to the clone.
These phones can be flashed. It's just not the same hardware spec as HTC. The software is stored at other locations - bricking the device if you try to flash an official HTC firmware onto it. We just need to customize the correct firmware.
so we can`t update it at all ?
is there a way to fix a briked device like with the original htc or it is bricked forever?
hi, i havent had any windows mobile phone before, im completely new, however im not stupid and can learn quickly
ive ordered a clone, to get used to it, then ill buy a real jade once im familiar with it all !
so ive ordered one of these :
www . dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.12811
so does anyone know how i go about installing a WM6.5 rom on it ? ill need guiding alot as i dont know what software to use to flash or what to do etc...
all help is appreciated
thanks

If you're not stupid, you should be smart enough to read the stickies and such
if you read this you will see you have to run this to unlock your device, so that you can install custom ROM's on it.
Just follow the steps provided.
Next, you can download a rom. the rom will have two files: customRUU.exe and ruu_signed.nbh
Just hook up your device to your computer, run customRUU.exe and you're done!
Flashing takes about 10 minutes, and in my experience you can use your computer while it's busy.
After the ROM is flashed, hard-reset your device to make sure the ROM is loaded correctly by your device.
Bro,
keep in mind, that although the phone is clone to HTC jade or elphin, the hardware between the original & clone is deffer, so all the roms here will not work on ur incomming clone.
Add to this it will not be at that good quality like HTC or ACER or Lenovo or samsung....
at the end, its ur decision.
same opinion here:
wouldn't have ordered a clone, but the original. difference in price cannot be that huge any more.
sorry lad, you're on the wrong track.
not development related moved to Jade general
Hello,
I am getting ready to buy an HTC HD2 from T-Mobile next wednesday.
I have been doing some searches for stuff here ond XDA.
I have a probably stupid question.
Are HTC HD2 and HTC Leo the same thing, can I install themes and other things for the Leo on the HD2 from T-Mobile?
Thanks in advance!
Yes, leo is the HTC name for the hd2. Yes you can run all the same apps and themes and registry tweaks, only when it comes to rom and radio must you be sure that what you are flashing is tmous compatible.

x2.
It is super important you are getting a radio and rom that are compatible with the Tmobile thing. If you are planning on flashing there is a link in my signature that should help you. If you flash something not compatible with tmobile it will brick your phone and be just as useful as a brick have fun. its an awesome phone
I too, am a WinMo noob and I just got the HD2 and am looking forward to putting custom ROMs on it. My only concern is if I accidentally brick the phone, is there any way to 'un-brick' the device and reinstall the stock TMo ROM that comes preinstalled with the phone?
if you can reinstall, then it wasnt bricked in teh first place, , , but yes, most problems are recoverable.
The big nono for tmous users is the radio, which the main distinction is the 3rd set of digits in the version.
It will always be either 50 or 51,
2.07.51.x
2.08.50.x for example.
all, every, and each radio with a ..51.. in the version WILL ALWAYS totally kill a tmous. Also 2.04.50.x and 2.05.50.x, even though they are 50 radios, will still kill it, stone dead.(or i suppose that should be brick dead)

Listen to SamSamuel, Ive read many of his posts and he KNOWS his stuff. But I think he may have mis understood one part of your post. If you brick the phone, like really birck BRICK it, meaning it will not turn on, the computer only recognizes it as 'Qualcomm xxxx', it is toast. There will be NO going back. It is a loss. So read, and read some more, then read some more, before you even consider flashing. HD2 bricks are some of the most expensive bricks out there...
Thanks alot peepes!
I appreciate all the comments!
I decided to stay with at&t and I also decided to switch from my old trusty Iphone to the Samsung Captivate.
So far, I love it!!
Hi there,
Im very new here. I have a T-Mobile HTC HD2. Both HTC and WinMO are something new for me, as previously im iPhone user. Any guide/help is very appreciate. The phone keep hanging during boot. Usually its hang during the pink box and when htc sense finish load. How do I fix this?
I would like to install android on this phone. Is it possible for me to install after I update to latest OS(WinMo 6.xxx).
Update:
My HTC HD2 keep freeze during boot. Now I want back to normal, whatever ROM is it.
Welcome to XDA and whole real world as I am sure iPanzy kept you down but thats another matter for another day. Now I am not sure what pink box you are talking about you mean the splash boot? What are you using WM6.5? In that case look below.
Now you have few choice as HD2 is true multi platform device, as we are belessed with superior dev team and support many OS. You can use dual boot WM(NAND) and AOSP(mSD) or you can use NANDROID. If you pick dual boot I say use WM6.5.X as base 29XXX is by far the most superior stable then if you want to use AOSP then download and install Android on SDCard or skip all of that and use NANDROID as native.
Pink box I mean is probably shows "Stick Together" words
Now even worse, after few second the phone boot it freeze. I`ve tried factory reset, the same thing keep happening. What should I do now? Should I flash to new offical ROM/OS?
FYI in using T-Mobile HTC HD2 with 1024MB ROM.
For now let forget installing android on but focus on the freeze.
Thanks for the help STHNS
I know you are using Leo1024 as its TMobile also I had feeling it would be that ugly logo thats why I said splash boot. Which was the first thing I got rid of when I got HD2 and put custom splashscreen.
Now it would be unwise to jump in to Android as you might want to check if your HD2 is functioning properly so later if something does go wrong you can send it back for warranty without issue. So lets be clear what are you saying? You can't load in to your WM6.5? SenseUI never loads? or your stuck at bootscreen? Is it used/new? Where did you get this device?
My phone stuck on 3 difference places. I keep reset so the phone can be use normally. Indeed very few time its successfully boot.
1. Stuck on Pink box logo"Stick Together "
2. Stuck on loading Sense UI
3. Stuck after finish loading Sense UI.
Most of it stuck on 2 or 3.
Well no problem first where did you get this device? I have a feeling its used and you got it though some type of shady deal where original owner gave you talk about blah blah lol thats why he sold it, I could be wrong
But serious matter here shut the HD2 down completely and power it back on. Then report what you see the in steps. Hopefully you got it new if something is wrong due to faulty hardware you can send it for repair or warranty. But I have a feeling you don't thats why you came here :O again I could be wrong I am just always suspicious
Its used and i bought it on eBay.
Btw how could flash to offical ROM?
What rom is on it? And why would you want official rom? If you want WM based rom go use EnergyROM WM6.5.X 29XXX base as its far more stable.
EnergyROM WM6.5
Does the installation is same as official ROM?
To test the phone, I advice to go to the HTC Website and download a ROM (you have to use your phone's serial number to guarantee to get one suitable for your phone). If I remember correctly there are 3 variations: 2.08, 2.10 and 3.14. - go for the 2.10 (just to keep away from the 3.14 version as you want to move onto Android). Flash the ROM.
After a hard reset there should be no problems, if there is then your phone has hardware issues.
Thanks for the info fred.
Where I can download the 2.14 version?
What is shipped ROM?
What the diffence between shipped ROM vs official ROM.
Sorry for a lot questions. HTC and WinMo is something new to me. Im iPhone user.
2.14? You mean 3.14?
1) Shipped rom is the default manufacture rom that comes standard on it.
2) No diff between shipped and official rom they are same thing we call them stock rom. Which is supported and maintained by the folks who made the phone.
If you want to upgrade stock rom not sure why you want to do that you can go to Tmobile website and check under wmupgrade or go to HTC website and look under support. I say you forget about WM 6.5 stock rom and go use WM6.5.X EnergyROM base 29XXX its simply superior in every aspect.
The reason I suggest you flash, for example, the 2.10 ROM is that it will flash the SPL, the main ROM and the RADIO. This will get the phone running fully on an official ROM.
The problem you have can either be modifications to the operating system software or additional software or a hardware problem. By flashing a stock (official) ROM you will have cleared the existing operating system and additional software. Now if the problem is still there then it is very likely that it is due to a hardware problem.
If after flashing the problem is gone, then by all means flash the excellant Energy ROM or flash your desired Android ROM.
If you only flash a custom ROM which does not include the RADIO (which controls all communication interaction and not just the FM Radio) then you are reducing the chances of finding out the problem.
Silly question, have you tried booting the phone up without the SD Card?
After all the problem, freeze, hang up and etc I no longer put any sd card on my htc hd2. I beleive the problem might be with the hardware. But why not we try our best before given up on it.
I had several simple questions.
1. Can radio be downgrade?
2. What radio for? Its same like baseband on iPhone
3. Where I can download 2.10 HTC HD2 US T-Mobile? Search here found nothing

1) Yes you can downgrade Leo_Radio's long as you use the correct one as you know there is .50 for HD2-US(Leo1024) and .51 HD2-EU(Leo512).
2) Radio is software that controls your phones wireless interfaces such as data, voice, bluetooth, gps, wifi and other power and memory related firmwares. Well never used iOS so can't say what they call it but far as AOSP goes yes we call it baseband.
3) Search for TMoUS 2.10 stock rom and you will find it or do search in this forum as I am sure someone has it archived.
3)
Answer to your question No. 1 - Yes, Radio can be downgraded and upgraded if you install HSPL prior to downgrade/upgrade. FOr the rest you have to search the forum for the answer.
I just got my HTC HD2 today after selling my iPhone 4. I need a full guide from start to end on how to install window phone 7 precisely please as I don't want to brick my new phone !

Dude, your asking for trouble on this one, see when you started this thread did you notice the the list of similar threads that comes up?
Its been asked time and time again and some folk on here can get very very vocal when people keep asking the same questions without looking at the quite obvious theads and stickies detailing what you need to do
Another question, have you searched at all? ok i see the search function is still down so will let you off that one, but there are various stickies at the top of the Q&A section for WP7 that will help
Im not going to detail everything you need to do, but i will give you a basic list, you can find everything you need either on the stickies on the various HD2 forums, or in the Wiki, remember most of what you need to do before you even think of installing WP7 is on the standard HD2 forums.
Anyhow, here goes, (note whilst you cant search on xda developers you can (and i always use this because its much better) seach via google, use strings like "XDA DEV LEO install HSPL")
first things first you need to unlock the device, so you will need to find and follow the directions for installing HSPL
you will then need to install the correct Radio, if you have the TMOUS 1024MB HD2 you must be very careful as flashing incorrect Radio will give you a brick, most HD2s are not this version unless you live in the states. search the HD2 WP7 stickies to find out which radio
then you will need to install the MAGLDR 1.13, use google if the XDA search is nackard, search for strings like "XDA DEV LEO MAGLDR install how to"
once thats taken care off your ready for WP7, boot to MAGLDR and get it ready for a USB flash and away you go.
Im not doing this to be rude, because i could have just as easily wrote down eveything you need to do, im doing this to help you, if you read the threads you will "learn" whats going on, you will see some of the issues other people have had and you will see how they fixed them, me telling you what to do wont teach you anything and you will be back on here starting new threads about something equally well documented.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923997
note, its very unlikely you will brick your device, unless you have a 1024MB version and flash the wrong radio, more often that not, when people report bricked devices they simply have to go to boot loader mode and flash a new ROM, a stock ROM would put you right back to a factory default, radio and all. so dont panic about that, there is also the SD card flash if you cant do it via USB for any reason, but in all my years ive never had to do that.
oh an use a class 2 or 4 SD card, might not work but its a better chance than others.
Hey sorry about that, I tried searching as mention by you which didn't work. I thought the stickies threads was just rules, didn't know it includes links.
Also where can I find these radios on xda instead of some other website?
Also what's the difference between 512MB and 1024MB? Well of course it's double memory.
My phone is from UK, so i guess it's a European model?
I know I could search for these information but I thought this might show up on google search for other newbies. Thank you for helping me
1024=Tmous=USA
512=Rest of the world so you have a 512 (rom , not ram)
You can find all radios in the wm6.5 dev section (HD2 is a wm6.5 phone after all ^^ )
two words mate,
read up.

good luck!
Look, if you have questions then ask but make them specific, like the two you just gave and the radios arent on a very obvious location as ^ has mentioned, if its a UK phone you have nothing to worry about, WP7 cant use the extra 512MB of ROM anyway
remember though, google is your friend!
try search for "XDA DEV LEO radios" on google without quotes
the one you want will be the first thread or if not it will be within the top 5 XDA DEV results
same for HSPL and MAGLDR
if you get stuck youve had a look about an cant find what you are looking for then drop a question, an just say, look ive tried this this and this but im buggered if i can work it out, can you guys help
and perhaps once your done you could give complete step by step guide including all links and downloads, because your right, its not all in one place but it is all there.
One thing you MUST NOT DO is use a USA Raido to update your 512 HD2 cause you will brick your phone and it's gone till you find someone who can jtag your
phone and fix it which will cause you alot of money. Make sure you read up before
trying anything.
WP7 is quite tempting, I agree.
Though, I must admit, I'd be a little wary about installing it, as it seems like it's still quite new.
If you want to give it a shot though, I recommend picking a build out of those listed here, and reading through all the instructions and comments before deciding to install it.
Also, before you try anything, be ABSOLUTELY SURE your stuff is backed up. I can't say how many times I've lost things on my phone because I've accidentally updated a ROM without say, backing up my contacts.
I now use Google Sync to keep all my Windows Mobile and Android contacts backed up, so this doesn't happen.
I'd recommend setting up a google account, and following these instructions to backup your contacts with your google account prior to trying anything.
Anywho, bestest of luck!

europe can flash 2.xx.50.xx and 2.xx.51.xx on 512mb UK version
ok, since this is the only thing that can give you a really bad day
download this radio here
http://www.multiupload.com/QP0IWGY42F
you will find everything you need about radios on this thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
The directions are on that link above but basically you will also need to get two other things
Custom RUU, found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4798017&postcount=1
that is the flashing program its self, when you download a radio it wont have an installer, it will be just a single file, you will need it to flash any WM6.5 ROM or radio but usually the ROMs will have one included.
HSPL, found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5279234#post5279234
this is the really important bit, this "unlocks" the device and gives you a layer of protection should you screw it up, which is most unlikely anyway download the attached file in post number 4, its the most recent and covers pretty much anything
righty once you have all that on your PC in a nice easy to find location its time to start modding it!
HSPL first, download the program and follow the instructions on the HSPL thread, which is more or less, run the program with your phone connected and charged up, IF it cant do it then it will tell you. For WP7 you MUST install HSPL2.08 when prompted.
once done, you will not notice any difference.
now follow the directions for installing the radio you downloaded use the CustomRUU, firstly extract the file then rename the extracted file to "RUU_Signed.nbh" and flash with the CustomRUU by just placing them both in the same folder (no other files in there) and running the customRUU
THAT is the hard part done, next is MAGLDR, let us know how you get on with that

Mr Philo have you got your activation code for WP7? Just dont waste your time flashing WP7 until you get a code from Microsoft.
And yes the search engine on here is not very good, but as the others said use Google.
Also when I started using XDA, i spent loads of time reading through most of the threads. And yes I read a lot before I even started to think about flashing.
But we were all Noobs, and we will help you out when you get stuck?
Also go to this thread for all info :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971478
Hey guys thanks for all the information! I just downloaded all the files that are needed and named them step by step in a folder.
First I can't check what SPL version I have. I did hold down the lower volume button down, but it only brings me to the 'vibrate, silent etc adjustment' (Yes i was holding it for 20 seconds). And it says do a reset, while holding down?? How can I do that. Sorry I know im failing already !
EDIT: Flower thankyou for the thread, but I was using it as well ! But its just the SPL bit im confused at :\
Oh yeah, I have already got a code yesterday from the UK Microsoft, was very easy
Start in bootloader mode. Shut down the phone / push and keep the vol down button and press the power button once...and wait 5s
Edit: Just saw its already answered above

Thanks, my SPL is 3.03.000!! So I need to flash a ROM or something to get SPL 1.42.0000?
I currently don't have a SD card with me right now as I left it at home and will be going home next week. So is there anyway I can flash a ROM without using a sd card?
You need to flash an old rom to get an old spl, then flash HSPL 2.08.
No need for a sd for this, juste start your phone in BL mode and execute the ruu from your pc
Which ROM should I download from the HTC website? I mean theres a few ROMs for HTC HD2.
Theres ROM Upgrade for HTC HD2 - 2010-10-11
ROM Upgrade for HTC HD2 - 2010-01-25
etc?
Sorry for all the questions !
I used this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944995 (the Standard Version) as it already have the phone unlocked etc and have no problems with it...and had no problems activating it as well. However a lot of the other ROM's now also have your phone already unlocked etc...and most ROM's at the moment should be pretty similar as it uses the same base files.
Edit:
However...on this ROM...one of the first XAP files you should load is the Connection Setup.xap
