[Q] Can my phone be fixed? - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Have been using dual boot (wp 6.5 & Android) for 5-6 months. Android stopped working from sd card. Decided to try wp 7. Installed LEO70_ROM, got product key from Microsoft for Windows Live, downloaded and installed Zune. Everything was great. Got message to upgrade. Thought nodo or mango would be better. Now I have no phone. I tried unsuccessfully to go back to wp 6.5, to upgrade. Yes I know I screw up, yes it's my fault, but it has been fun learning new things and it will probably cost me something in the end. Here is where I'm at and what I've tried.
1)Power on w/o sd card-Get triangle w/ Software update failed. Please try again.
2)Power on w/empty formatted sd card-above for 1 sec then jumps to bootloader with: HX-B3; SPL-3.03.0000 XE; MicroP(LED) 0x05; MicroP(TOUCH) 0x40 displayed.
3)Power on w/vol down-opens bootloader. Same as #2 w/RUUNBH in upper right and PB81120 before HX-B3; Upgrade ROM code error; please try again, Serial.
Microsoft Device Manager does not recognize phone, hard reset acts same as #2 above, errors out when I try to run HSPL or custom radio. Reformatted sd card (not sure about partitions-created primary). I would appreciate any help. Thks

have you tried to flash stock WinMO 6.5 rom from SD card?
download stock rom for your HD2
extract *.nbh file from exe and copy it on SD card, naming it LEOIMG.nbh
boot while hold vol down..
if this fails, i have no other options on my mind...
if it works, it overwrites everything.. so you ought to have stock WM6.5 and then you can go flashing again

Have you tried:
1 - take the battery out for a minute
2 - power the phone on, holding down the volume down button to boot into bootloader
3 - flash a stock 6.5 ROM
If this works, then you'll need
1 - to flash a .50 radio (2.12.50 etc...)
2 - flash magldr 1.13
3 - flash the backto the future WP7 rom by XboxMod and Yuki. The LEO70 ROM is the original WP7 ROM from DFT and isn't updateable via Zune

Thanks for the info. I tried to flash 'T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_3.14.531.1' but I think I need an earlier version. The only one I could find was a .exe file. Do you have a link to the correct one?

if this is the right file for your HD2, then open it with WinRAR or 7-zip. Inside you'll see NBH file. Then follow what o wrote
and, make sure that this is corret rom file for your HD2.

Thanks, Yes it it the correct rom. I downloaded it from Tmobile support. Called HTC to see if there was a different rom and they said that was the only one they had available. To fix it they said I would have to replace the motherboard and flash the rom. When I try flashing the rom I get a white screen with 'Loading...' . Nothing happens then.

Have you tried task29?
Use task 29 to clear everything, guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644781 then go to HTC official site and under support search for upgrades and download the latest rom for your phone and flash it.
Good luck.

I tried to run Task29 but I got a bunch of errors. I think it is because Device Manager does not reconize my phone. Can I copy the RUU_signed.nbh file from the extracted .exe file to the sd card and run it from the boot loader? Does the file need to be renamed? Is there another file I can run from the sd card? Sorry for all the questions.
Thanks for the ideas.

Are you sure you have the correct rom?
In case it doesn’t have Windows Mobile installed or you can’t get ActiveSync to recognize it, put it into bootloader mode: A.Power off your HTC HD2.
B.Press the Volume-Down button on your phone, keep it pressed and press the Power button.
C.Keep both the buttons pressed until you see the red, green, blue and white bootloader screen and then release both buttons.
2.Now connect your phone to your PC via USB. If this is the first time you’re connecting your phone to the PC in bootloader mode, wait for the drivers to be installed automatically. The term ‘Serial’ in the white area of the screen should now change to ‘USB’.

huh, i fear it's bricked. Sorry..

I would like to thank both of you for your input. Yes, that is how I put it into the bootloader. I also think the phone is bricked. I have read where you can have your phone unbricked. What do you think about sending it to someone to have it done?
Thanks again for your comments.

ITS NOT BRICKED I CAN BET ON THIS
Even I had the same problem ,I downloaded the official t-mobile update exe, but since I have been using HTC phones rite from Imate jam to kjam to jasjam to diamond to topaz till Leo so I found easily how to go back to 6.5 and also done for few local people, what I did is
1 Extract the tmobile update exe (see for the version which has ver. 3.03.0000 , u can find it on www.shippedroms.com or google it ) then using winrar extrect its content on your pc and rename the file RUU_Signed.nbh to leoimg.nbh
2 copied this file to my storage card and (fast use I keep a 2gb sd card and formatted &place the leoimg.nbh file to root of sd card so it looks like only 1file in storage card &no folders or anything)
3 turn off the device put the sd card & keep pressing volume down button and press power button to turn it on this will take u to 3 colored screen for a few second and then who loading on while screen if u have a proper matching leoimg on sd card then it will show u the contents i.e.
Radio v2
Splash
Bootloader
configdata
Os
And a few more things
now press the power button once and u can see the progress bar may be it mite restart ur phone but don't thing it screwed it will resume the update process & u will be back to ur stock rom
1 important point for u is that download the rom version 3.03 as it seems to me that u already have a stock spl and if u put un compatable rom then it won't move ahead from loading
Hope it helps u

HD2 Back To Stock Help Please

My touchscreen stopped working. I need to RMA.
I've got MAGLDR v1.13
ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.5
PONGSTER's CM7 NAND build
Holding volume down gives me a screen that says:
PB81120 HX-B3
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x40
I've researched a few guides and online videos trying to revert to stock. I found a stock ROM and found the NBH and renamed it to LEOIMG.nbh but in the boot loader there are no options to load/flash it.
Am I missing something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575524
connect your hd2 via usb to your pc, wait until "USB" instead of Serial apperas on the bootscreen. Then start customRUU, the .nbh file have to be in the same folder.
...on your own risk. But should work
I attempted this...
Verifying the information on your PDA phone... Please wait....
Then ERROR 260 CONNECTION message.
I am in boot loader with USB showing.

Do you've got the drivers installed correctly?
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=4f68eb56-7825-43b2-ac89-2030ed98ed95
From the xda wiki:
ERROR [260] : CONNECTION
This error occurs when the RUU cannot make a connection to the device right before flashing. This typically happens when you try to flash a new SPL to your device. Use SoftSPL before attempting the RUU again.

Hi,,
I don't think drivers are the issue here,because in bootloader,the "serial" is changing to "USB".
You need the correct original ROM for your phone and as you have done,rename it leoimg.nbh
This must be placed on the root of a 4GB or less sd card.
Power on holding the volume button down into the tri-color screen(hold volume down button until you see "SEARCHING")
The ROM will start automatically as it reads the .nbh file.

So I must purchase an additional microSD card, other than the stock 16GB one that came with the device?
277,263 MB ROM that was downloaded directly from T-Mobile.
LEOIMG.nbh titled.
I'll attempt to find a smaller microSD.

[Q] stuck in bootloader

Warning absolute noob here.
My HD2 leo froze in bootloader after using HD2Android NAND Toolkit.
Screen reads:
PB81120 SS-B3

Computer won't recognize the device anymore.
Next steps to take would be EXTREMELY appreciated.

trying to "flash" stock ROM
I promise I read through the threads before I posted, but you knw how your heart races and U cant think, let alone pick up new terms? welcome to my world...
Anywy, bought a 4GB Micro SD to try to flash [I don't know exactly what that means] my stock ROM again. I'll start with saving stock ROM I downloaded to the SD and plug the battery back into HD2 with the new SD loaded.... Is that flashing?
Thanks to anyone that can help!
back up but would love some trouble shooting
to see what I did wrong and get Android on here. Thanks for an help and all the threads that're out there
To get Android back on do this:
1) download this file http://cotulla.pp.ru/leo/Android/DFT_LEO_MAGLDR113_DAF.rar
2) turn the phone onto that bootloader, then run the RUU file from the download, it should flash magldr.
3) once magldr boots you can flash the Android ROM of your choice from this list
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=928
You may have to flash a clockworkmod recovery, in the ROM thread it may link you to the right one to flash using the USB flasher mode in magldr.
Thanks!
I'll try that and follow up here for others
I have the same problem exactly.
and the ruu you give told me ERROR (260) : CONNECTION
What can i do?
No one here can solve this problem?

Maybe you don't install your ActiveSync or WMDC v6.1 correctly.
Your phone still working, because enter to bootloader but just no rom in side or error rom so it don't start up.
Please try to uninstall your activeSync or WMDC and restart your PC. Restart your PC and install ActiveSync or WMDC again.
I hope it working.

i've got the same problem..
Very anoying, i was curious about the HD2 Toolkit so i intstalled it and started working with it.
I used task 29 and after that i used clk repartition.
Now i'm stuck at udc_start()
I think because it wont connect usb
Only thing i can do is start into that and bootloader.
But when i'm in bootloader it wont connect to USB
WMDC is fresh so i'm out of options?
What do i need to do

flash stock via sd and try again.
Perhaps the Down volume button is damaged (always pressed and not released and you can not complete procedure to boot from SD) or at worst a shortcircuit board or processor that manifests similar.
I think I've the same problem, but with the UP volume button. I solved it after I uninstalled .dll's volume controller from WM65 (otherwise it beeps continuously and permanently displayed on the screen was the volume controller picture, like as I hold the volume up button continuously) and we could use in normal conditions.
Only the battery ends quickly (the phone completely stopped overnight, but with the battery inside the morning battery is dead). Otherwise in "normal use" is empty in 2-3 hours.

[Q] HELP ASAP!!! Software Update Failed and won't read SD Card:(((:((

Before I succesfully flashed Custom Windows Rom and had Android in my SD card root folder. I also flashed HSPL and MAGLDR113 and CWM Recovery v3.2 trying to install Nexus. But I couldn't copy the Nexus...rar file cause I didn't locate the file on the computer.
So I decided to flash back to original ROM for my HD2.
I copied LEOIMG.nbh to SD card but then it said "File cannot be located" so basically it partially copied and when I rebooted my phone and it showed white screen with a message of an update. I cancelled update but nothing happened it just came back to the same message and tried to update software but it failed.
So now I stuck in tri-color bootloader with a message:
SS-B3
SPL-2.10.0000 8G XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(Touch) 0x40
I doesn't even read the card any more so I CANT DO ANYTHING!!
What's weird too when I checked SPL version it was 2.08 but now it's 2.10.
WTF is going on? Can anybody tell me? Is it fixable at all?(((
Ok this is what I would do, I would back up my SD card on my computer. Then I would do a full reformat of my SD card with Fat 32. then re download the Windows Mobile stock ROM for your HD2 and copy it to the re formatted SD card. I would only have the ROM on my SD card and then put it in my HD2 and boot it up into bootloader.
The ROM you tried to flash is what changed your SPL to 2.10.0000. Cause the SPL flashes before the ROM does. So that means it was something wrong with the ROM and it could not flash it.
Yeeeeaaaaayyyy!
I fixed it, man!
What I've missed is to launch bootloader pressing down button, then it showed USB mode at the bottom, after that I could flash stock ROM to my HD2!!!
Now it's all good.
The only thing I wonder now: what HSPL should I flash?
Is HSPL 2.08 still ok?

You must have flashed a official update for your HD2 so I would say yes cause you are still on official stock software. But I still suggest you do a little double checking to see that the ROM you have is a ROm that was released for your specific HD2.

Yep, I don't remember what link I used but I put in my IMEI so it referred me to a particular rom!
Back on track now testing some new ROMs.
Do u have any suggestions for Android ROMs?
Hello to you all,
I have some sort of the same problem. First my original windows 6.5 did not start up any more. That made me look on the internet to see what options there where to fix it. After finding a lot of options I choosed to install android on my system. That worked for a long time but unfortunately it also hung itself up. As a reaction I tried a hard reset and it looks like that was fatal for my phone because I cannot install anything anymore. The only thing I can come in is bootloader menu but when I want to install anything, it stops before finishing.
Is there someone who can help me with this problem? By forehand thanks!
Kind regards,
Jaimy

[Q] hd2 not booting and usb socket broken

Hi
My HD2 is not booting up. It just gets into a loop showing the materializing/de-materializing android symbol.
I have done both soft and hard resets, but cannot get it to boot. My other problem is that the USB socket is broken so I cannot connect it to a PC.
I am using an external battery charger to charge the battery and then having to insert the battery back into the HD2. The booting problem started when the battery ran out of power overnight while in the phone.
I have android aMAGDLR V1.13 build feb 1 2011 by Cotulla 2011. On the hard reset RGB screen it displays
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0X30
Then in the bottom white stripe it displays the word 'Serial'.
How can I get my phone to boot and then without the USB connection put the original windows 6.5 ROM back on so I can send it back to T mobile for repair as its still under warranty?
The other option is how can any trace of the android rom be wiped from the HD2 so I can send it for repair? I would just have to act stupid and blame the broken USB for wiping any ROM LOL.
I hope somone can help.

To return your phone to stock (including spl) -
1. Format your SD card using the format tool ON YOUR PHONE.
2. Download the correct firmware from your device from HTC official website
3. Open the .exe with winzip/winrar/7zip
4. Extract the RUU_Signed.nbh file
5. Rename the RUU_Signed.nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh (apparently caps is required)
6. Copy LEOIMG.nbh to the root of your SD card
7. Insert SD card into phone.
8. Boot into tri-colour bootloader (Hold vol down, tap power button but continue to hold vol down)
9. Release vol down when you see 'Searching...' on screen.
Your phone should boot to bootloader, notice theres a leoimg.nbh file on your SD card and flash the stock firmware you got from HTC. All data will be lost, as well as HSPL. You can then send your phone back for repair.
If this works for you please press the thanks button, its what keeps me lurking in the forums trying to help when I can =]
Thanks for the reply jwchips.
I cannot do step 1 as the phone will not boot so I cannot format the sd card using the phone.
I have the following original firmware from my phone- RUU_Leo_S_TMO_UK_3.14.110.1_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship
Do I rename this file to 'LEOIMG.nbh' ?
How do I save this to ' root of my SD card' as apposed to copy and pasting into my sd card?
What if in step 9 'searching' does not appear? As in RGB so far nothing happens. I'm charging the battery and when fully charged will follow you instructions and hopefully I can save my phone and send it off for repair.
Can you boot to MAGLDR? Is there a format SD option in there? I'm a clk user so I'm not 100% sure what options MAGLDR has. If you cannot format via your phone try to format via windows (try fat32 first, if it fails to flash try fat. Theres conflicting arguements as to which one works, but you can't cause damage by formatting to the wrong type, the flash will simply fail at the end).
The RUU_Leo_S_blahblah sounds like the install file you downloaded from the htc website. Rename it from .exe to .zip, open with winzip/winrar/7zip and look for RUU_Signed.nbh. Rename that file to LEOIMG.nbh.
The root of your sd card means not in any folder. So sdcard/LEOIMG.nbh is ok, sdcard/firmware/LEOIMG.nbh is not.
If nothing happens... nothing happens. Worst case scenario is you've wasted some time. The only time where things can go wrong is when you are actually flashing the firmware, and flashing via sd card is the safest way to go (no accidently pulling out cables/powercuts etc).
You won't see 'Searching...' unless the bootloader has found the LOEIMG.nbh file. As you don't have it on your SD card yet, you won't see it
P.S. Theres a thanks button now you know
jwchips, its updating at the momment. Yippeee. Will keep you updated.
jwchips, it has successfully updated. The screen shows the following:-
LEOIMG.nbh - OK
RADIO_V2 - OK
RCUST - OK
BOOTLOADER - OK
SPLASH1 - OK
OS - OK
CONFIGDATA --OK
RUU_WALLPAPER1 - OK
RUU_WALLPAPER2 - OK
Update Complete
UPDATE SUCCESS
Thank you jwchips. I've got the phone working with the original (rubbish)winmo 6.5 installed. Now I will be taking it to the nearest T Mobile shop so it can be sent to be repaired before my warranty runs out. Then I will be getting either the HTC Titan or and most likely the Samsung Note.
Glad to hear everything went okay!

[q] help htc hd2 stuck on bootloader screen

i have spent countless hours on this and still have no idea how to fix it..ive searched many threads but none have helped..
i have a htc hd2 and had it on android NAND and just yesterday booting the windows 7 phone onto it.. after it finished the phone rebooted and was stuck on the maglrd screen where it had usb flasher and tetris and all that.. soon i then realized that the maglrd had to be on version 1.3 in order to put windows 7 on it and i had version 1.1 from when i put android on it.. so it was stuck on that screen.. so then i read from a forum that to unistall maglrd and android NAND download a stock ROM for your device then run the setup while your phone is on the tri-colored bootloader screen.. so i downloaded RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.34.50 .07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship.exe and ran it while on the boot screen after it finished my phone rebooted but then it booted straight to the bootloader screen.. then i downloaded RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2. 15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship.exe and tried the same thing but no luck.. im still stuck.. on the screen it says
PB81120 ss-B3
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x50
maybe that helps.. i dont know what my radio thing is
i admit im a noob i just need HELP
You just got REAL lucky,,, PB81120 is a tmous, right? Red end key green send? Says t mobile below the earpiece?
If yes, then that second rom you flashed is the only non tmous rom that wont DESTROY the phone.
Do NOT flash any more stock roms that don't say TMOUS in the filename.
My suggestion, get tmous 3.14 rom and flash from SD card. Assuming that goes well, then flash hspl magldr etc.
Yeah it's a tmobile phone.. But how can I flash from the sd card when it doesn't even show up on my computer.. I can't select the USB drive mode on my phone for it to pull up on the comp unless there's another program I can use to explore my phone
ah right, no card reader?
well, id get the three shipped tmous roms (2.10 2.13 and 3.14, , you already have the 2.10) and try flashing them again, see if you can get any of them to boot. If you can't id suspect the stuck radio/spl problem, meaning something isn't flashing correctly (usually the radio), but the best way to see this is by sd card flashing, so if you have any access at all to an sd card reader (another phone, perhaps?) then sd card flashing will show you on screen each section as it flashes.
Don't be confused by hspl not being removed after a flash, it won't be. We'll come to that later.
Don't forget you need a 4gb or smaller sd card for flashing.
DO NOT use ANY non tmous stock roms, you will end up with a brick.
EDIT - actually, a good test for the stuck radio/spl problem is to try running hspl3 (or hspl4) and changing the spl to anything other than it currently is (2.08.hspl). If it seems to go OK, but nothing changes in the bootscreen, then that's the problem, but be aware that you could potentially end up with no HSPL installed and no way to re apply it, so if you can get your cands on an sd card reader, go for that first.
thanks i already tried the tmous rom i already had with the 16gb sd card and also an 8gb.. i guess i need to buy another one.. i have a 3.14 rom but its not a tmous one.. where do i go to dowload them?
so first i need to get a 2gb sd card and try flashing with a tmous 2.10, 2.13, or 3.14 ROM before testing the stuck radio/spl problem correct?
maybe im just doing the flashing wrong.. first i extract the file using 7-zip .. then i rename the .nbh file to leoimg.nbh then i copy it to the sd card then unplug and turn on and let it run and press the reset button on the back when its finished.. and it says on the tri-colored screen that my the spl is 2.10.0000 now and underneath it now says MicroP(LED) and MicroP(TOUCH)
You need to use a 4Gb or smaller sd card to flash a rom using the sd card bootloader flashing method. Get your hands on one of those and you'll have no problem flashing a stock TMOUS rom.

ok well that all looks ok, and your spl has changed from 2.08.hspl to 2.10.0000 .
Did you take note of the blue writing on the phone screen when you sd card flashed? looking out for ''rsa_radio fail'' or some such)
It says radio v2 ok. rcust ok. Boot loader ok. Splash ok. os ok. Configdata ok. Ruu wallpaper1 ok. Ruu wallpaper2 ok update complete update success .... And it still didn't work with a 2gb micro sd card and a tmous 3.14 rom
and how would I even change my hspl to 3 or 4 if my phone doesn't even show up on the computer.. It wouldn't connect to active sync
what if i plug in my phone and instead of flashing with the sd card just click on RomUtilityUpdate and let it run?
yep do that. You can flash from teh bootloader screen, doesnt have to connect to activesync, so long as it says USB in teh white bit of teh bootloader screen.
it's still not working.. I've tried 2.13 and 2.14 ... I'm about to try 2.10 .. But I doubt it'll work
Nope still nothing..
looks like a warranty issue then (assuming its still under warranty?) at least the spl is now warranty safe.
So what does that mean.. do i take it into the store then an they fix it?
won't they just tell me to go since i tampered with the system?
so long as the spl says 2.xx.0000 (the 0000 is the important bit) and you cant see anything like magldr, , , are there any obvious signs? it doesnt boot does it? (im on my pohone one handed, im not checking back thru the thread )
Right now it's 2.10.0000 an it still doesn't boot
Then there's no way anyone can tell you've been flashing. Anything a tech does to make it work will wipe any evidence.(unless they forensically examined it, which they don't)
Gotta be out of warranty by now tho? And if its a paid repair it doesn't matter if you've been flashing.
Oh i see.. and yes it's out of warranty.. i guess i'll just take it to the store then
They basically said the phone is no more.. but i was just talking it employees at the place so maybe i need to talk to a tech person or something..
