First step. Finding what phone type you have, i.e. Herald, Wing, Dopod..etc.
Second step. Find the Original ROM that came with your phone. Do this by going to your manufacturer's site and downloading it with your IMEI number.
Third step is to Flash the Original ROM to device.
Fourth step. Download the HardSPL folder and run the three cab files in that folder and then run the romupdateutility.
Fifth Step. To flash a custom ROM replace the canonyang.nbh image file with the custom .nbh ROM image.
Sixth Step. Run the ROMUpdateUtility again with the new .nbh file.
One other thing.. Don't blame cooks for your inability to flash ROM's..
looked at the tmobile website and the htc website for the orginal rom (for the hearld/wing) that came with my phone which is the wing couldnt find it at eather sites. i know how to flash rom i am not retarted. i am taking a guess that it is better to go back to the orginal rom b4 flashing to another rom.
Yes, you are correct.
I've downloaded the tmobile ROM image for you:

Post back if you need more assistance.
thats right ..cooks are doing a vrey good job over here.. shouldn't blame them ..i too had a similar issue where it would just reboot and go no further ..i used a card reader to put trib's ROM inside and flashed it through SD..everythn's working great ..

Thank you for your validation and support ^>^
thanks buddy i really couldnt find it any where. works great for a min. it will not load up with out my sd card out after loadin and going through the boot up process i put my sd card back in and after a hour or so it will start doing the same thing reboot. i am just going to stay with the orginal rom then i know that my phone will work everytime and not reboot. unless u got a rom that is better then super kitchen version 4.1.13.61 because that rom must not like my phone. i really like the super kitchen rom cant find andthing like it. just need something with some ram and speed
Try using any of my ROMs, but before you do make sure you HardSPL.
I'm going to move this to General since it has nothing to do with the development of roms.
Ok so I wanted to change the ROM because the ROM that I had kept reseting the phone and freezing and so i decided to change but when I picked a ROM and loaded it, it will not start just stays on the start up screen. Any Ideas?

This happened to me awhile back, it was caused by a corrupt download. But it could be numerous things. Do you have a T-mobile US HD2? What ROM did you flash?
It could also be caused by flashing a ROM not designed for your phone. Thats how a lot of people get bricks. A little more info would help.
yes sir i have a TMO USA phone and i tried to use of KUMARS TMOUS C5 Premium.
So do you think that if I just Flash the phone with a ROM that works this will fix it?

First, make sure it wasn't just the task29 that you performed
Second, go into bootloader and try flashing Kumar's C5 again using a different method (from sd or activesync).
Third, try formatting your sd card to FAT32 if you're flashing from it.
If none of that works you can just try a different ROM or even a stock shipped ROM.

Yeah that exact same thing happened to me awhile back. I guess it was caused by a corrupt download or something of that sort. All i did was go into bootloader and flashed a different ROM from the SD that i know for a fact works. After that, you will be fine.
Just use Mskip's guide
Flashing Via MicroSD Card
NOTE (PLEASE READ): If you flash a Stock Rom via microSD Card then it will overwrite your HardSPL with a stock SPL included in the nbh file. If you flash a v2.01 or later Rom (with SPL2.*) you will NOT be able to reinstall HardSPL onto your device and could end up bricking it. This does not apply to custom roms as they do not include an SPL. BE CAREFUL!!
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
2. Download your prefered Rom from the LEO Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your PC
3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh
4. Copy the LEOIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card
5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone
6. Reset the device while pressing the volume down button to enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top
7. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update
8. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device.

So after you flash sometimes it will let you boot fully into the ROM? And everything works until it freezes again?

yes first boot up it goes fine, i test it out by doin 3 resets prob after the 3rd one it stops working it stays on the bootscreen for ages, then il do more resets and some times it will go through but after 10sec of being done it will freeze and have to repeat until it works again. this happens even when everything is on STOCK ive done task 29 flash via sd card through everything...
Try this?

Did you try reformatting the SD card, or trying a different SD? I personally have never done a Task29 Via SD, not even sure of the process, though I do one via Active Sync before every flash. Sounds like a defect in hardware, if not the SD, then the phone. Hope the replacement solves your issues, else look closely at the SD card.
Ok so I am so confused, when I flash the phone am i supposed to leave the SD card in the phone? If I just went and bought a new SD card will this fix it. I flashed the phone with a ROM that works and it works for a few days and then freezes then I have to start all over. What do I do this sucks. Is anyone in the Austin texas area that can help me?

SD kernel open failed,,,,,, that's looking for boot source on the SD card, I believe you chose the wrong option.

Your device is fine.
First decide what rom you want on your device, then use HD2 Toolkit to "Repartition" your device for that rom.
Once you ahve done that simply put that rom on your SD card and flash after booting into recovery via magldr menu.
i have here my phone htc hd2 i update the rom,but it stock to 8% then i tried the sdcard process but it also stock at around 5%...now whenever i start my phone it have a error saying software update failed please try again..i did a couple research and i think i will not supposed to do it by my self..,i need a professional and experienced dude to pLEASE help me with this.,,please please please...im a newbie here,,

When doing the update, it appears as though the phone does not have any software in it.
It reads updating from " " to "2.13.531" . If it does not detect a number, does that mean because the software update failed, it erased the software inside? I downloaded it from the T-mobile website. The file reads: T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_2.13.531.1(2)

lol, fair enough.
ok, take the ROM.exe (that you downloaded from t mo,, it is definitely a tmous, right? green send key?)
anyway, right click the .exe file,, choose rename, change the .exe to .zip, then double click the zip file to open it, find Ruu_signed.nbh, extract it, rename it to leoimg.nbh , copy it to an Sd card that is 4GB or smaller (important, bigger cards won't work)
card into phone, reboot into bootloader, flashing should staRt. tell us what the blue writing on grey background says.if you don't see it you did something wrong.

If you are absolutely sure that the ROM you downloaded (and the radio it contains) are the right ones for your phone, then go to the boot loader and see what it says for SPL. If you do not find HSPL, flash HSPL 2.08 and then try the ROM.
Flashing aborting or getting stuck early on is an indicator of the flashing process bring stopped by SPL...

Samsamuel can tell you better but it sorta sounds like yet another stuck radio seeing as it is hanging at the 5% to the 8% area during flashing. I am not sure exactly when but hang in there and let Samsamuel post again he can give you your list of options better than I, hope you get it going again my friend.

If it was a SPL issue then that means it is a CID or a MID issue and if it is that then the Rom would not even start to flash at all no matter if it is via RUU or SD card. If the CID or the MID is wrong it would through a error saying something like "CID mismatch" or "Model I'D mismatch" when trying to flash.

I do not want to highjack this thread so after this post I will be contacting you via PM, or if you use G Talk you can hit me up on that. If you have a TMOUS HD2 I have the 3.14 stock RUU for theTMOUS HD2 on my computer and I can upload it for you if you want. But I think the ROM you have is the same as the one I have.As far as checking your radio version if you can not boot your device at least to the T-Mobile screen with the red text at the bottom left corner then you can no check your radio version.

yea I'm with TMacgnolia, , sounds like a stuck radio (albeit it's sticking earlier in the process than expected, perhaps indicating the stuck spl variant.)
combined with the vibrating I'd be thinking hardware, so I'd be trying sd flashing using the freezer trick.

sir yeah we manage to install a custom rom but the problem now is i think its on the cpu..,is there any way to fix this hardware problem..,
I could use some help, having the problem described earlier. I can't get past the 4color boot loader screen, - for a fraction of a second it goes to the insalling screen then comes back to 4color with "Serial" in the white.
Here is what I have on my HD2: Android 2.3.5 Radio 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14
Here is what I have tried to install through sd card: RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.13.531.1_Radio_15.39.50.07U_2.10.50.26_Signed_LEO_Ship.zip (renamed .zip, was .exe) and T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_3.14.531.1.zip (renamed .zip, was .exe)
I tried 3 different sd cards; (2) 2 gig cards (1) 4gig cards. I reformated several times before copying and renaming the nbh file.
What next? Thanks
just to confirm, you rename the exe to zip, open the zip, extract Ruu_signed.nbh, rename that to leoimg.nbh, copy that t sd and reboot, correct?
also, please confirm that you do in fact have a tmous.
the brief flash usually means the file was renamed incorrectly, for example depending on the file extension settings, it has been known for a file to end up getting called leoimg.nbh.nbh
the fact that it flickers means it is detecting something, but finding a problem.

Thanks. That makes sense. I can't check for 6 or 7 hours until I get home for the day. I'm using W7, and have never really gotten how to view the real extension on a file, not like the good old DOS days. yes I have a tmous. After requesting the help, I tried the same card in my brother's HD2 that I need to restore as well, and got the same response, so it has to be the card/name not my HD2. I'll post back when I check it out. Thanks again.

I renamed the file, making sure there was only one .nbh extension. Still not working. I tried it with both tmos roms, I reformated the card, I tried it on both phones. Obviously, I have done something wrong with the file, but read and re-read the instructions and I can't find what it is.
Any ideas would be great.
