I have HTC of German that i will like to change to English. here are the info from the phone:
HTC HD2 T8585
Rom version
3.14.407.2
I want someone to please recomend a rom or upload me a file to do the job. i dont want to damage the phone in anyway.
There's a function called "search" on the forum, if you want to hack your phone that will be necessary to use it at some point
Briefly, to change the language you must root your phone to install:
HSPL
Radio
A boot loader (MAGLDR or CLK)
CWM Recovery
and finally the custom ROM of your choice.
There are plenty of guides in the forum.
This one is a good start, it's recent and complete: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640709

I know there's search button am just trying to be very careful because i have same phone damaged in the process of updating the Rom. i used HSPL4 to flash it before flashing with the rom I downloaded, now the phone stuked in bootloader (3 colors). I dont want the same thing to happen to this thatz why am asking if there's a special way of changing the language.
Here you can find all official ROMs if you`re interested only in language.
Just Flash HSPL 2.08 and then then run ROM file (as administrator) of your choice (3.14.xxx.x). In bootloader mode.
*To install any SPL there must be any SPL version from this list on your device:
SPL 1.42.0000
SPL 1.62.0000
SPL 1.66.0000
SPL 2.07.0000
SPL 2.08.0000
SPL 2.10.0000
SPL 3.03.0000
Otherwise the installation will fail!

After flashing this rom : [Rom][WM6.5][27 Aug'09]New Elfin ROM With Latest build 23034 Xip/Sys
The device stay in the 'smart mobility' screen,
I can't even boot it up first time
I can't turn it on so how can flash back other rom?
Can someone tell me what can I do?
Please Help me. thank you
You can use this Unbricker ROM ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2913636#post2913636. It's the easyest way, without using other WM devices. It worked for me.
You can also use the Elf/Elfin Unbricker (Gold Card) ----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437996. Hadn't tried this one though.
Hope that I helped.

A user of this forum, 911sniper, provided us with an HTC test-only ROM:

Alternate download link:
http://www.4shared.com/file/82315205/ea440324/RUU.html
IMPORTANT: Read the steps below before flashing!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a ROM that can potentially overwrite and/or unbrick a device with an original (non-patched) SPL. It has a wildcard for Model ID (ELF0*****) and CID (11111111).
I don't have a bricked Elf but I tested it with an original CID-locked SPL and it overwrote it and flashed a new generic HTC ROM with the following:
IPL 2.11.1002
SPL 2.11.1000 MFG
ROM version: 2.11.0. WWE
ROM date: 08/14/07
Radio: 02.98.90
CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2)
Here are the steps to make it work:
Quote:
Download this ROM from the link above
Two ways to flash:
Rename the file to ELF0IMG.nbh if you want to flash from SD card (you must format the card to FAT32 first)
Put the ROM in a RUU folder that contains the RomUpdateUtility.exe. You must remove any other .NBH files in that folder first.
Start your bricked Elf in bootloader mode (hold down camera button and reset). If you are using the SD card, it should flash right away.
NOTE: If the device flashed successfully but is now stuck at the new boot screen, you are still ok. Now you can flash ANY shipped ROM at the bootloader (if you have an Elfin, flash only an Elfin shipped ROM) and your device will be running again. If you can't flash a shipped ROM after successfully flashing the Unbricker ROM, then make a Gold Card and follow the steps in that thread.
NOTE: If the Unbricker ROM doesn't work then make a Gold Card and use it again on that card.
NOTE:
One thing I noticed is that you cannot use the white screen method (elf-uspl.exe) after you flash this ROM. If you try that, then the message "Not in use" pops up under the penguin. However, you can flash ANY shipped ROM from bootloader after this unbricker ROM has been flashed. From there, you can do white screen method and then flash the Hard-SPL/USPL/cooked ROM.
Hi !
i Have a 32A magic from 3 Austria and the only thing i did is Installing the official ROM upgrade (This one, not the newest) so i have perfected SPL .10 and want to install This.

And what is this wipe everybody is speaking of ?

he Everyone
i want to update my spl and radio to 2708
but i dont no which method is the best
through fastboot
recovery
or gui 4.1 program for windows (htc magic develepmont section)
i have htc magic vodafone 32B with recovery 1.7
stock spl stock rom
greetings h4xor1911
Fastboot is the best and safest method.
The GUI is just an interface for fastboot and therefore essentially the same.
Use the new version called Fastboot commander(check my signature).
Good luck

Oh yea, here's the original radio/spl thread, but the directions looked too daunting for me. But you might want to bookmark it for the latest radios and stuff.

I've flashed a bunch of WinMo custom ROM's, but this is my first time attempting to install a NAND build. I received my phone back from warranty repairs last week so I'm currently running a stock 3.14 ROM. I've got a stock 1.66 ROM that I'm planning on installing from the SD card to get a SPL that is compatible with HSPL. I want to run a Task29 before I install a NAND Android ROM (MJD's latest build, I'm thinking), but I'm not entirely sure how I should go about this.
This is as far as I've gotten as far as the install procedure goes:
1. Flash the 1.66 ROM through SD card
2. Install HSPL
3. ???
As I said, I want to Task 29 the phone before I install 'droid to make sure everything runs smootly. Can anyone list out the rest of the steps I need to do to and what's the best app to Task29 the phone for me?
Flash a radio 2.08 or above. e.g 2.15.50.14
Only flash 2.xx.50.xx radios btw, if you have a EU hd2. For T-Mo HD2, i'm not sure on the requirements sorry.
Either way, search it up, snoop around the forum, look at stickies, you'll prolly find a guide or something that tells you the radio requirement for T-MO devices.
Then flash MAGLDR, it's done by flashing a regular rom through usb.
Then download your NAND build of choice, and install. Remember to install as an administrator.
Plz read this great guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
I don't need to have a WinMo ROM present when I install MAGLDR on the phone, right? I'll be able to install it from the boot loader as long as I have a compatible radio on the phone, correct?
So right now the install goes like this, someone correct me if I'm wrong
1. Flash the 1.66 ROM through SD card
2. Install HSPL
3. Task 29/Install .50 radio
4. Install MAGLDR via boot loader
5. Install a NAND Android ROM via MAGLDR
6. Profit!

Hello xda-developers
Just a short question.. I just installed MAGLDR 1.13 on my HTC HD2 (so I used HSPL-2.08) and it works. Will my MAGLDR still work after updating SPL to version 3.03?
DFT's tutorial says that I need SPL-2.08 for installing - but do I also need SPL-2.08 for running MAGLDR?
By the way: I guess the two versions above (SPL-3.03 and MAGLDR 1.13 are the newest versions of the tools )?
Thanks in advance,
experience7
You don't need to update your device to spl 3.03 ..
Yes, 1.13 is latest of MAGLDR ..
Edit:
Sorry, forgot to answer the original question.
No, MAGLDR will boot on neither SPL 3.03 NOR HSPL 3.03.
Thanks
I didn't find any changelogs.. so I guess there aren't any? Just better performance with 3.03 and official WM ROMs?
