Hi dear XDA,
yesterday .. after almost 2 years of excitement, my HD2 stopped working.
I only had a White Screen and Rom Flash didnt work.
I still have guarantee, but had installed HSPL and Android NAND
After reading through Forums i found out that i nee to install the first rom for my HD 2 (i had 1.48) to revert back to old SPL and WinMo
The Flash went through, but im still unsure if i can send my HD2 back
here you got a SS, maybe you can tell me
regards
syther
Yea that's fine.
thx for responding so fast
one thing that made me unsure was that i still can install rom from sd with original SPL. that really made me wonder :O
Regards
That just means its a correct rom for your carrier and/or region.
If you flash the stock Rom you most definitely can

Hi,
i don't know wht happen. After I have flash cook rom, my screen look strange after i reboot it.
But it becomes normal after i press the power button and on it again.....
No peoblem in flashing stock rom......
IT's so strange........
(Flash ROM using USPL 2.5)
Are you sure your phone is an original HTC Touch HD device? There are lots of good copies of this phone in Asia which I have seen with similar problems when flashed with non stock roms.

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.......
I bought it from HTC and it is normal when i flash the stock rom
is it because i am using USPL???
FWIW mine did the same after flasing EnergyRom the other day. It's a T8285 that's Telstra branded. No problem once I turn the screen on and off but it was a bit unsettling.
You need to have your SPL (bootloader) to 1.56. Something in the initialization of the palette changed about a year ago in the various MS ROM updates.
I seem to recall the way to upgrade (for stock SPL, you can also go with custom HSPL) is by simply applying the most recent factory ROM update.
So, if you went from (old) stock ROM to a custom ROM, you would see this. If next you go from custom ROM to a new stock ROM and then back to the custom ROM, the problem is gone.
Or thats how I recall this, it has been a year since I had this problem.
If you already have newer SPL, then I do not know what the problem is.

thaank you!! You are right! it is normal now. thanks maybe this issue should post it in wiki.
OK, thanks to everyone here I finally flashed my HD2 and I liked it a lot. I tried the Energy Rom and Core Cell Rom and they both worked great and have there advantages. But I have a new question now. I want to change my phone back to stock, which stock rom should I download? And is the installlation process the same as flashing the phone with a custom rom?
hmmm...
im assumin you have a tmous HD2. if so you can find the original tmobile rom on their website. just search for hd2 software update on the search portion. same as here, you can find it. just gotta look and not ask a question when you can find it yourself. also i think this question doesnt belong under this thread mayb under HD2 general..
http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm54430.xml thats helpful... use it to flash back..
ok, thanks for the help. but i have a question and something else as well. I clicked on the link and read over everything it says:
NOTE: The software update is only designed to update the ROM version from 2.10.531.1 and 2.13.531.1 to 3.14.531.1. If at any point the software was changed from 2.10.531.1 or 2.13.531.1 by flashing to unsupported software, sometimes called rooting or hacking, then we strongly recommend you do not perform this update, as it was not designed to update unsupported software.
It seems like their saying don't use this update if I flashed another rom besides the stock rom which it came with. So exactly what do I do from here? Not trying to sound slow or anything, but I want to becareful with these things. And besides I don't have a spare phone to use and would hate to brick this one up. Any help is appreciated.
I got my TMOUS HD2 yesterday and to go around customs, I asked if the seller could flash there nonbootable ROM, which I made (HTC Oboe XIP and no IMGFS to be sure it wouldn't boot ). When it arrived, I just flashed the 3.14 ROM without single errors and keeping HSPL2.
Do it, there won't be problems .
this thread came in time. today i got a message from tmobile indicating that there is a new update available. i wanna give it a shot and if i don't like it then I'm going to upgrade to the cell core v3 since i've been using v2 for a while
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 have a huge problem with my HTC HD2. In the last couple of days i have been trying to flash some different Android Nand roms. But i found out that i weren't good at it :/ It succeed to install a rom by duttys. I werent satishfied with the rom so i kept trying to install some other roms but with no luck. Now my touchscreen doesn't work anymore. Then i tried to install a official win mo rom from HTC homepage, but it didn't make any difference. Does someone have a solution. Hope you can help me

Re-flash the most recent ROM from the HTC website. With this you will receive the most up to date radio, which I doubt has anything to do with your issue, but it can't hurt.
It may be a simple coincidence that your screen broke while you were changing the software on your phone, but I would suggest if you are going to send it off to be repaired, you remove the Hard SPL update you should have done and re-flash WinMO.
This happened to me; luckily t mobile sent me a warranty replacement. It's official your touchscreen is dead.

You might be right in that thought. I just hoped that it could be a software issue, but i maybe just have to realize that it is defect. I tried to install the latest rom from htc but it didn't make any difference. How do i remove the HSPL ? Im on foreign territory in this. I just thought it could be fancy to get android on my phone instead of screwed-up Win Mo. I got no idea what i have been doing :/
Hi guys,
i have a htc hd2 runing on a android 2.2.2 (nexus one), my touch screen is getting frozen all the time and it didn't work for a very long time. a few days ago it worked for a couple hours but then it didin't work again. it is now working on the moment but i am sure that it wil get frozen again when i close the screen.
what can i do? is it posible to install an other android version or can i fix it on a other way?
(sorry for my bad english)
Try using another rom and flash others things like stock wm6.5
If it still doesn't work then I will have to send it for repair.
