I just tried installing an Android Nand ROM on a T-Mobile HD2 that I bought from a friend. It flashed OK but it won't read my sim card (I'm not on T-Mobile). Is there any special radio or ROM that you need for a T-Mobile phone?
Solved, I had my sim in backwards duh.

Thanks now..and donations wil follow )
dunno if I'm right, but as long as I know, telstra phones are already unlocked... at least the one I bought from Australia... I live in Mexico and my telstra edition was working with telcel as soon as I took out it of the box...
Telstra HD2s are not locked

I can confirm this.....
Except it's got the telstra rom on it that restricts certain settings/functions... but u can easily get rid of it...
I am using one here in the US. What a wonderful phone, thanks to our Aussie Bros that I can use this phone on att US./
Not locked.
any sim works on it but you won't get full internet pottential until you change the rom. I tried a 3 mobile sim when i 1st got the phone, i had reception straight away but no internet. but as soon as i got rid of the telstra rom & retried my 3 sim, everything set up in an instant just as with a telstra sim.
You might want to look at flashing a generic HTC rom, as it will pick up the new provider settings if your using another countrys sim.
First you will need to remove the spl and install a hard spl

I would download hspl2_run.zip and install 2.08
Then get the htc rom

1.72 WWE should do the trick.
Hope this helps.
So i have a o2 htc hd2 that i unlocked the other day, so i can use it while i am in america, now i used my gf's sim card and it works fine in the phone, so i got my own sim card, but there is no radio signal, do i need to flash a new radio rom for it to work in the us?
thanks

Hi,can anyone please tell me that can i use QMAT to flash T-mobile USA 2.10 Stock ROM to my HD2 T-mobile USA phone ?bacause i'm facing an issue just like this guy does from this thread(sorry,i cannot give u the link because i'm a new user)= HTC Leo:HD2 > HD2 ROM Development > (Solved) Bad Flash or What? HD2 bricked!!.I've tried everything like this guy does and my last choice to flash T-mobile USA 2.10 Stock ROM to my HD2 T-mobile USA mobile phone via QMAT.Thanks
p.s. i have another htc hd2 and i've flashed it with custom rom with HSPL Without any problem.
Have you tried going to bootlaoder?
Never seen QMAT before but i did search it, maybe using jtag with it
QMAt is a goldcard if i'm not mistaken.Yes, i've tried everything.
QMAT is farrrr more than a goldcard, it can create goldcards, yes, (but only supports HD2 in the paid version) however with hspl and/or stock roms there should be no need at all for goldcard (though i havent read the thread you linked to)
I've tried to flash my hd with and without hspl but stuck at 9% like this guy does from this thread= HTC Leo:HD2 > HD2 ROM Development > (Solved) Bad Flash or What? HD2 bricked!!.I've tried everything but i get the same result.I've flashed two of my hd2 with custom rom without any problem at all.So my last chance is to flash my hd using goldcard.Is it safe to flash my hd with goldcard and does goldcard support my T-Mobile HD2 USA?

sure does. You will need to buy qmat, and you will also need a working win mo phone to get the cards unigue serial, unless you are lucky enough to have a card reader that ISN'T connected to a USB header. (Some laptops are like this, many arent)
will this void my t-mobile hd2 warranty?
do i need Hspl or not to flash the stock rom using qmat.Or do i use hspl only when i flash custom rom like normal.
how could it? if it works, it will be a stock rom, so no problem there.
The goldcard itsel;f leaves no trace that it has been there, , think of it as HSPL on a card, except that with the real hspl it leaves itself on your phone, with goldcard it doesnt.
Hey Guys,i totally appreciated ur help but i've decided to send my T-mobile hd2 to Htc Care Center in Taipei,Taiwan and they chrged me for only 9USD!!! to change the device MOBO.The phone is now with me and it works fine.
Gud Nooze Indeed. grats.

hey i recently purchased a tmobile branded htc leo the 1024leo for tmobile usa. I wanted to flash an official unbranded rom. Anyone know any that will work i downloaded RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe
thinking it would work but after reading that not all roms work i realized this might not be compatible. So if anyone knows any unbranded roms that work tell me plzz. also any way can sim unlock the phone by flashing or using some software cuz im on att and i really wanna use this phone
there is no "official unbranded rom" for the tmo us HD2. You can download many different customized rom that is available such as the HD2.0 UnOff Series if you want unbranded. for unlocking please use search there is already a thread about that.
i don't know about that rom, but i always follow this rule when i download any roms:
PLEASE READ ALL THE INFORMATION IN THIS GUIDE BEFORE INSTALLING HARDSPL OR FLASHING A ROM/RADIO. IF YOU FLASH AN INCOMPATABLE ROM OR RADIO ON THE 1024LEO THEN THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF BRICKING YOUR DEVICE SO PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL!!
Not all ROMs are compatible with 1024LEO, including old official ROMS.
Official 1.42 and 1.66 WON'T WORK on LEO1024, because there is no 1024 NAND memory support.
All custom ROMs which ARE NOT BASED ON 2.08+ T-Mobile ROMs WON'T WORK ON 1024LEO.

and this is the rule for radio
IMPORTANT: Do not flash ANY Radio before 2.07.x or the 2.09.51.03 Radio or you could damage your phone!!

it was just an suggestion about the rom, and shawnamin should have read the "[TUT] Flashing your First GSM USA 1024LEO ONLY!! (For Noobs)" and that would have given the answers for flashing roms.

Heh, wise move.
Your tmous phone cannot take ANY official roms at all, except for the tmous official roms, or tmous compatible cooked roms. All other official roms contain a radio that will kill your phone permanently.

just flashed the TMOUS Vision GB rom to give my stock GB on my G2. So far it's great, but is there any way to sim unlock the phone so i can use it internationally apart from having to call up t-mobile?
sorry if this has been asked already as well
