Specs-
OS:

Manila Version:
2.5.20121412.2
Rom Version:
2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio Version:
2.10.50.26
Running the HD2 from Tmobile (578mb).
Issues-
When I run Leo_CustomRUU with the radio firmware (Eugenia Project - HTC HD2 Radio ROM - 2.12.50.02_2) renamed to RUU_Signed.nbh - it goes through all the prompts and it will eventually stop with an error message about communication errors with usb.
I tried several ports and even hooked up an older system to make sure it was not my rig. The usb on both machines works fine with activesync or as as mass storage device perfectly.
I was able to flash with HardSPL3 without a problem (got the We hacked it screen).
Yet, when I tried to flash the radio it gives me that communication error. If it helps I also get a similar error when trying to flash the room (I tried Energy.Leo.21679.Sense2.5.Cookie.DinikGlass.Sep.24).
Why am I trying to flash the radio firmware? My ultimate goal is to run Froyo. I have copied to the Android folder on my SD card a version (despite my best efforts to be specific on all other aspects, it escapes me the version I am running. I know it is froyo, I just do not recall the builder or version) and I am getting the dreaded robotic voices when I try to make or receive a call. So, rather than troubleshoot my android rom, I am looking to downgrade the radio and see if that solves it as from the pages I have read this seems a likely culprit.
I thank all in advance.
Update:
I found out that using HSPL3_PKG had not put my phone back to 2.08HSPL as it said.. it was still at 2.10. So, I tried highlighting the 2.08 regular, and it did go down to it. Yet, after trying three more times, it is not taking the 2.08HSPL. Anyone have any ideas?
Fixed:
Fourth time is the charm? Works now though.
Did you make sure you have an ActiveSync connection before trying to flash anything?
Dr.Jekyll,
Yes. When I connect the USB it asks for which way I wish to initialize it, I choose ActiveSync. That program starts up, syncs and stays green in the system tray.
I then double click on the Leo_CustomRUU program and click through the steps, the HD2 goes to the HTC with the progress bar as well as the program's progress bar.
It just sits there and does nothing. After about six to eight minutes, it will just speak of a communication problem and error out.
I do not know if this matters, but I am running XP Pro SP3 and ActiveSync 4.5.
Hi,
Why not flash from SD?
1. Rename the .nbh to LEOIMG.nbh
2. Copy to root of sd card
3. Shutdown device
4. Hold vol down and power
5. Follow the introductions
6. Press power button to flash rom
As taken from http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=615095
I seldom flash through ActiveSync WMDC, always from Storage card.

SPL 3.03 isn't compatible with HSPL sir.
But you can run Android on your Stock Rom 3.14!
Hmm. I've got spl 3.03.0000, can run android from sd... But am getting the 'robot voice' on calls, even though I hit CLRCAD before running Android.
Any ideas?
Cheers,

Edit... Just tried a different version of android & it works perfectly. No HSPL req'd.

Hi, I am a complete n00b at this but I have spl 3.03.0000 as well on my HD2 and I want to run android with sense - considering the FroyoStone Sense v3.2 like you have.
Before anyone completely grills me... I've done my research and downloaded everything I needed up until I came across a few posts on xda about not needing HSPL3 and radios etc if I had spl 3.03 on my phone because Android can run on spl 3.03.
I came across this post and didn't want to miss the opportunity to ask. So my question is, do I still proceed with flashing HSPL3, installing a radio, flashing a custom WinMo rom (ie. Energy's rom), format sd card and putting Android on it, then do the CLRCAD and haret to run Android?
Or (correct me if I'm wrong), can I simply format my sd card and put Android on it and do the CLRCAD and haret in order to run Android, without doing anything to my phone?
I do appologize for being long winded, it seems like we both have the same spl 3.03 and want to use FroyoStone Sense v3.2, and since you got it to work, I wanted to know how you did it.
Any help would be must appreciated,
Cheers!!
When you have SPL 3.03 on your device, don't tray to install HSPL. installing HSPL over SPL 3.03 isn't possible.
and installing a SPL 3.03 ROM over HSPL will limit your program memory to +/- 50Mb. (except on T-mous devices)
Android is compatible with latest stock ROM (SPL 3.93 / Radio 2.15)
If you have robotic voice, try to change the Kernel version.
You don't need to do something special on your device in this condition. Just format your SD card and put Android on it, and run the CLRCAD and haret in order to run Android.
Nah, is there any chance to install cooked rom on SPL 3.03? I had a problem with volume up button, it didnt work and I gave HD2 to HTC and they returned it to me with SPL 3.03 not 1.66 as I had before. :/

yep, you can have cooked roms on spl3.03 by sspl. sspl will fake the spl version just for flashing purpose but not really change anything, thus no impact to warranty. search it in the rom forum and you can easily find it.
Is it possible to downgrade software? For example if I'm running 1.66 now and wish to try the newest rom but find that I do not like it, could I downgrade back to 1.66?

I am upgrading to the wp7 rom, my radio is 2.8x, I have installed magldr112 via the DFT cab file, device restarts and then hangs on the start up screen.
I know ive read about this here on the forums but cant seem to find the post again.
Could someone help please before I go crazy?!
Cheers
I had a problem like this and found it was something to do with the PC I was installing it from. I install the whole thing again on another PC and it worked fine.
The 2 main differences with the PC was one was Vista 32bit and the other was 7 64bit.
Not sure if this is relevant at all but I hope it helps.

I am installing it from my Windows 7 64bit.
Did you find you had the same issue on a 64?
I've just tried on a 32 bit machine and still the same.
I was using energizer 6.5.x rom and now it hangs on the NRG boot screen.
Getting worried now!
Any ideas? I've been sat here for nearly an hour trying to resolve this. I cant be the only one surely?
Nope, I'm stuck at the same step.
Can re-install MAGLDR112, but it always just re-starts and get stuck at the white htc screen.
Actually I'm past that bit...woohoo!
Reset the device back to the loader and installed an updated radio (Radio_2.10.50.19_2.zip) and now it boots into the MAGLDR112.
Give that a go mate.

Do you have installed HSPL208?
MAGLDR won't work with HSPL142 or HSPL166 (stop at white screen)
I'm not sure. WP7 couldn't see my SD card anyway (look in "about" in settings to see available memory) and I found other posts suggesting removing the SD card will allow Wifi to work.
I'm searching now to see if I can get an SD card that will actually work. Has anyone actually got an SD card working in a WP7 HD2?

Switch your router off, then back on. same happened to me, but was able to connect after doing that.

MAC-adress
Everytime i reboot my device i get a new MAC-address.
the first 6 chars are still the same 00:18:41:... but the last 6 changes after every reboot. I Think that is the problem why you can't connect to WIFI-network.
(sorry for my bad english)
Ive tried resetting my router and even reflashed the whole phone to no avail.
Im wondering how I can upgrade to the latest radio version without activesync
1. Put your stock rom ruu_signed.nbh on sd card as LEOIMG.nbh (<4gb card)
2. Reflash that by holding vol down - hspl.
3. Reboot and dont got into it - goto new (old) spl.
4). Connect and do HSPL3_PKG.exe, We hacked it. Best to NOW change your drivers to MTTY drivers (first point you can as hspl rapitool doesnt recognize them so change to unsigned drivers now) and connect then do:
task 28 55aa
task 29
task 8 (which is reboot)
YOU NEED TO CLEAN IT OUT WHEN FLASHING OVER AND OVER AND OVER or you end up with fk hd2 with too many bad blocks in nand and screwed partitions.
5.) Now re-do your radio with latest by replacing LEOIMG.nbh with ruu_signed.nbh from radio rar/zip. = ie 2.15 radio and vol-down reboot hspl again.
6) Now replace LEOIMG.nbh with MAGLDR 112 .nbh as LEOIMG.nbh on sd and
YOU ARE DONE.
7) Run dwi.exe and install Windows 7 then do ChevronWP7 hacks/etc and get LIVE.
Before doing dwi.exe PROPERLY: make a fake data.zip with EMPTY (ie: notepad make 0kb .txt files then rename part00.bin, part01.bin, ALL THE WAY TO part07.bin and save these into data.zip (rename real data.zip data.bak or whatever).
Then flash with dwi.exe so this CLEANS OUT PARTITIONS COMPLETELY with ZEROES.

Thanks for your extensive answer but guess what? Thats right, still no wifi.
It worked on first boot, i was able to sync my contacts, go on facebook etc so must be something that has happened since then or during restarts.

You can always HEX-Edit the partitions going to nand for Wp7 and change MAC.

Anyway - TO CLEAN YOUR PHONE wp7-method do this and (this is the both normal winmo and my replaced data.zip NEXT STAGE CLEAN after the above oem/stock/winmo and spl cleaning by sd... save the life of your hd2 for another year...
(nb: you can also do daf/android way with NO FILES .IMG at all - just use flash.cfg with 0 asize allsize and no boot, system, ro, nothing: just those 3. ie: partition name is 0. dont even have to name a file system. Although is interesting that daf.exe has strings in it for both: SquashFS, and WPH. !!! this is daf.exe not dwi.exe ...) hmmm.

what I am missing?
Thanks in advance
This seems like something good to do, but the instructions are very difficult to follow. If someone who understands the OP instructions could rewrite the them, that would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
So my HTC Blackstone is going crazy.I changed battery & touch screen and after that cam went crazy.I saw all kinds of colou's on cam but that's not a problem because I use it rarely.What bothers me is that I locked myself out of it.I was setting up screen password early in morning and I don't know what did I typed in.How can I solve this???
I'm thinking to flash it but when I was looking at flashing instructions I saw that I need to Sync it with my computer in Windows Mobile Device Center.But I cant sync it since I cant log into the system.I installed all drivers on my PC and when I connect it via USB it detects it automatically.
I wanted to reset HTC to factory defaults but I cant I did Hard Reset but when I do it I come to that 3 color screen and cant go further than that.
When HTC is disconnected and I'm in 3 color screen on the bottom it says "Serial",when I connect it to USB it says USB.
So basically I'm stuck and I need advice,what to do???
Can I flash it without sync it with Windows Mobile Device Center???
Or is there other way around this problem!
Thank you in advance for your help! :good:
For flashing a new ROM, there is no need to sync with Windows Mobile Device Center. However, you will need Microsoft .Net 3.5 SP1 to connect to Blackstone. I am guessing you are using Vista or Win 8, so you may have to do a separate install for it.
I recommend that you use a ROM from this thread, which is the most updated on this website. I am using it, and it is very stable. I had used the Android version, and it is user and finger friendly.

Caution: Make sure Blackstone has at least 70% battery-life
