[Solved] Touch HD bricked???? - Touch HD General

I`m writing this after almost a full day of searching and testing with no luck.
I have friend who tried to upgrade Rom into his Touch HD and failed.
Right now all the phone does is to start in tricolor menu. I have tried several Roms but when trying to flash they get stuck at 0% and after a while it ends up with error 262. Same thing happens when trying to upgrade to HSPL also (i do not have a working Rom on this phone, just a tricolor menu which starts automatically when phone started ). I have tried to flash rom with SD card (2Gb), and with Ruu with Win7 and XP.
Info :
Blac100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) V6
How can i recover this phone? Can anyone pls help me ?
I have attached a Print screen of my folder dedicated to this phone. Everything there i have tried.

oh my god...you tried to flash a ROM without SPL!? are zou crazy? first you have to flash HSPL, search for the latest spl 1.56 olinex and when you get the (.nbh) file, name it to Blacimg.nbh and put on SD card (on root!) then it will appear a confirming message to install the .nbh, and you confirm.
note: not having HSPL is pratically the same thing has having a locked bootloader...

Yes i know... not me was the one who tried... i have received it like this, and trying to recover it. The idea is when trying to install HSPL it get stuck at 0%, and the alternate method implies booting into system... but i do not have a system on device. I have also tried to download the official rom from HTC website.... and after 1% it says "invalid vender ID".

Flash SPL from sd card. Name the file as BLACimg.nbh and put on sd root. Then enter Tricolor screen (If it doesnt go automatically) and confirm the flashing. Then SEE If you get the htc logo and a empty shell ( black screen) . If you do good, now normally Flash a ROM ( you can use sd method or throug pc

If it doesnt work try another sd

This what i`m trying, but it get stuck to "loading" . I have downloaded "HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex" , started "HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe" , nbh file apeared in same folder, copied to SD (formated to Fat32, default alocation unit) started phone, gone in tricolor then "loading" message on screen and nothing else (for 10 minutes already).

hmmm... keep waiting

finaly solved
I have finaly solved it. First you need Windows XP on PC. Download USPL 2.5 and open a CMD window. Start utility to upgrade to HSPL OLINEX and after presing update , and progres bar apears on phone execute fast the uspl in cmd window (otherwise it will say it cannot open USB port). After this you phone will reboot in tricolor but instead of SPL you will se USPL 1.14. Disconect usb from phone and reconect it, now it should say is connected to USB. Relaunch the HSPL update utility and wait to get to 100%. When done phone will reboot into system (if you have any).

its a way, but you could simply flash hspl trough sd (use other sd if that doesnt work, I needed to cange too!)

Believe me ! i have tried with four different SD cards, one of them indeed did not worked (a 4Gb). I do not know exactly what happened to the phone but it was impossible to flash anything to that phone (except some shipped roms witch would fail after 1% with invalid vender ID on pc and some 28008 error via card) . As i said one post earlier, the only way was via USPL, witch needed a workaround method (because it too failed with "could not access usb port" error). And the USPL worked only on Win XP and had a very narrow time window to execute the file (to have the USB port accessible ). After changing to SPL 1.56 Olinex phone booted with the old WM 6.1 stock. But i have changed 3 other roms after that, finally settling to energy Rom. With Olinex i had no problem at all flashing the Roms. I have even flashed a new radio, with absolutely no problem. Don't know what was the problem exactly, but the old SPL 1.54 had some serious issues !
I`m just glad i have revived this phone (witch btw, is not even mine)....

the old SPL, was locked lol. It's the stock SPL straight from HTC. But doesnt matter, good thing you solved your problem

10x
Wow, thanks alot for this post. I've done the same thing as you and crashed my HTC. Problem solved with Win XP, but more simple. Just executed USPL.exe and, job done. I think in Win7 was the problem with certified drivers. Think that can be solved in a fresh instalation of Win7 but not with certified microsoft drivers or HTC Sync installed. Anyways thanks alot. You've been a lifesaver.

Unable to downgrade my SPL from 3.13 to 2.20

Hi there,
Hope you can help me...
Since i bought my Cruise, I flashed it to the newest ROM version of HTC and it automatically installed SPL 3.13 with.
The problem is that if I want to install the WM 6.5 rom, I have to "Downgrade" My SPL version from 3.13.0000 to 2.20.
I followed the steps explained by "Olipro", but when the upgrade starts, RUU kills activesync (seems to be normal) and when the phone normally reboots in bootloader mode (like when you flash a new rom), nothing happens. The phone didn't shutdown and tries to establish a new USB connection !
I tried to turn manually the phone in bootloader mode on to force the SPL update, but the % bar stays at 0 and RUU returns a communication error (262).
I tried also to install the wm 6.5 rom without install SPL 2.2, but it crashes (stays @ 0% too)
I don't know how to install this stinky version of HARD SPL.
Heeeellllpppp !!
NOTE : I tried with or without µSd, does the same thing.
Thx
hmm try disabling firewall and antivirus one of them may be blocking the connection. Thats my only thought about it.
Thank you for the answer but it don't work...
Nobody can help me ?
Try to extract the files from the newest htc rom to a new folder, and then copy the "RUU_Signed.nbh" from the SPL V2 folder to the extracted files (to the new folder) and run the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" from the extracted files (from the new folder).
nope ...
Please, consider my asks...
I know there is necessarily a solution but I have not yet found.
I don't know where/why it is crashing.
What does the HTC need to downgrade the hardspl ?
Is there a protection that can't be bypassed with the 3.13 ?
The only thing that I can do atm, is flashing the official HTC rom (useless ^^).
The actual version of my rom is :
_HTC Touch Cruise_RUU_Polaris_HTC_FRA_3.13.406.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship
Thanking you in advance...

HSPL 3.13? In this ROM is ver. 3.13 drivers, not HSPL... If you have original ROM and you dont install Olipros HPSL, you have original HTC SPL...
When I enter bootloader mode, the HSPL version is : 3.13.0000
Of course it's the original htc HSPL.
The problem is that I can't downgrade it to the olipro's version : 2.20.
Did you try it on other PC?
2 PCs, 2 USB cables..
The official rom upgrade works fine, I dont think that the problem comes from the computer.
definite guide:
1. establish a connection with activesync via usb (orbit2 to pc)
2. start the romupdateutility provided in hardspl folder.
3. before it starts flashing, you need to also follow on-screen instructions on orbit2!!! execute jump-spl and stuff: click yes on orbit2!!
4. when the orbit2 states: Replug USB. you need to plug the usb-cable once off and then put it back to connect to your pc.
5. it starts flashing and restarts after its done.
Hi Manaaa,
I don't know what is jumpslp ??
I found it on the web (xda..), copied it in my "my documents" folder, ran it but it asks me a jump address (default is 0x00000000) and an spl (*nb) file..
What is jump spl ? What is the address to jump to? and where can I find the *nb file ?
In the olipro's hspl folder is only a *nbh file.
Thank you
I wouldn't recommend using a jump spl for our phones if there isn't one in the Hardspl Pack then one is not needed to be run.
Personally im still really confused by this so if i get it straight.
You are synced with activesync.
Run the file for Hardspl Run RomUpdateUtility.exe
Then go though. It switches off activesync.
Then what?? Exactly Does it ask you to replug the cable? Do you get the rom flash screen (with %) at all??
Also i dont think that spl flashes can be run from the booloader as it has to be a modded bootloader (jumpspl if you will), loaded by the program to be able to flash the new hardspl.
Also i know very little on this, this is as much as i understand it to be.

Normally, after killing activesync, the phone turns into bootloader mode. Mine stays in winCE and tries to establish new usb connection...
I also decided to force manually bootloader mode and killing activesync by myself.
I ran RUU again, it first checked the phone state (such as battery >50%, connectivity...)
CHECK : OK
Next step, by clicking "NEXT" on the RUU interface, the phone turns in "% mode" and the update starts but stays at 0%.
After a while, RUU returns an update error (such as 262).
Noway to flash hardSPL :'-( , v3.13 seems to be "write protected".
ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR
This error occurs during the CE ROM code upgrade process. If this happens, you can just soft reset the device and run RUU again. The update process will then continue. At this stage the rom on the device is incomplete and it will not boot back up into Windows. You will need to place it into the bootloader to continue.

That is what error 262 is but really dont see why this happens either. And since you can boot into windows its not much help.
So it just wont go to flash it when you click it through, hmm
Your last resort would be to PM cmonex as she will have helped make this with oilpro. Ask and see if she can shed some light on this one. Maybe something has gone wrong somewhere (quite likely) that we don't know how to fix.
Stupid question but have you tried downloading, unzipping it again? May have been a bad dl... or unzip
Have tested it with about 10# DLs...
I PM'd Olipro, waiting for a response now
Flash back to HardSPL and don't Re-Plug
Hi Pixel,
Herewith are guide for you
1) Flash back to HardSPL and don't re-plug until end of session (5 minutes)
2) Flash back to original SPL 3.13 on this post . This original SPL for HTC Touch Cruise only
3) After you do this you cannot flash with other Cooked ROM or Shipped ROM
with different ID, unless you flash back to HardSPL
Good Luck my friend
I have exactely in the same configuration as Pixel69 with the same result.
I've tried to an other PC without any change.
Has somebody any idea?
Just had an idea what OS are you running to do it?
If its not 7 may not be fully compatible... Shot in the dark really

Please Help - Can't Flash Rom anymore - No Image File

Good Morning,
I have been flashing a few different roms to find one that suit my needs however I have come to a problem - When I run the RUU it finds the device starts to bootloader on the device then very very quickly the device brings up a grey screen which says something like no image file (happens so quickly hard to read) then goes back to the tri-colour boot loader.
The PC then keeps trying for another minute or two and then says its lost connection.
I have tried using the Manual Boot Loader on the phone and putting the image straight to the msd card and running boot loader by vol - + Power but still nothing works
The last image I tried was the LIA (Can't remember which version - its at home)
I am currently running HardSPL 1.56.OliNex
On the Bootloader it also says this if it helps:
BLAC100 32M
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
Also tried a Hardreset and downloaded official rom from the HTC website :-(
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks.

Ensure that you put the .nbh and ruu file into one folder with no other files. Make sure you have named the file correctly, i.e. blacimg.nbh
Thanks for your advice. Got the Offical HTC Rom flashing back now.
Strange why the RUU didn't work though been working fine.
Just another quick note while this HTC Rom is flashing it says:
Radio_v2
Bootloader
Splash1
os
Does this mean I need to put Hardspl back on to do more roms as it mentions bootloader?

Max

If you SPL states SPL: 1.56.Olinex then you do not need to re-use HSPL unless you are flashing a rom based on pre 1.54
Ok it didn't change the SPL so thats still ok -
However I can no longer flash new images from my computer using the RUU?
When ever I try it connects enters bootloader but then says No Flash Image. I have checked on the computer I have the RUU tool and the blacimg.nbh but nada.
I have tried roms that were working before. If I copy the blacimg.nbh to the memory card and use vol down + Power it works fine.
anyone seen that before?

So you can still flash from sd card, but not using usb cable and pc method. I am assuming you still get 'usb' at bottom of bootloader before you try flashing. I was goingf to suggest maybe your .nbh file was corrupt but you stated you tried using ones which where previously successful so it can't be that. Are both the nbh and ruu files in their own folder with no other files? Try using ruu I've attached. Do you get any error codes?
I will give that RUU a go later once I have played with this rom for a bit.
Yes the RUU and the .nbh are in a folder on my local drive on their own - No antivirus installed
The same .nbh file works via the flash memory,
However the USB text doesn't appear on the boot loader anymore. When I run the RUU from the PC with USB attached with ActiveSync it auto loads the bootloader perfectly but from there no usb and it flashes to the grey screen abotu no flash image then back to the bootloader with nothing at the bottom.

ok, reason flash fails is more than likely due to 'usb' not appearing at bottom of bootloader.
Various reasons for this:
First check that 'allow usb connections' is enabled in activesync connection settings and then see if 'usb' appears
Secondly, update usb drivers
Ok thanks I will note that although I think I have found a rom I am very happy with. So far seems to do everything I want and very stable so will see how it goes.
Just encase anyone is intrested its: Xnor 6.5 V1.4
I have yet to go through everything but so far so good....
same problem
hi I have same problem as OP.. did this get resolved??
dunno if this will help you but basically to flash it via usb the pc detects the phone as something else (not active sync or mobile center or whatever its called now).
so you need to have the drivers installed for that.
if you cancelled the driver screen or something the first time, then it will still be on your system as a nonfunctioning device the easiest thing to do is uninstall it from device manager.
then install the drivers as mentioned above and plug the phone in again in bootloader mode and wait...
it will take longer than usual because its the first time the driver is being loaded. then i think 'usb' will appear...
i had a problem like that after i reformatted my pc but this was ages ago

HD2 Bricekd - WSOD...

My device spec -
HTC HD2 - SPL-1.42.HSPL
Cotulla HSPL
Radio 2.08
ROM - Energy Series 23554 6.5.5
I had the phone on charge, I took it of the charger to make a call and found it had frozen. Removed the battery and restarted the handset and got the WSOD. This has happened before and I simply put it into bootloader mode and reset which fixed it. This time though this did not work. Now I have a HD2 stuck on WSOD when powered on.
If I try to flash it I have to have it in bootloader mode and connect it to the usb. However it gets to the loading screen and goes no further (left it on for 20 minutes). I am able to flash through the storage card which shows success, but when the handset is restarted again all I get is WSOD. Because of this I am unable to flash a OEM Rom, have downloaded the official Rom from HTC support and even extacted the nbh file and copied to my storage card, but it will not run. I can see that it tries to execute the flash but then goes straight into bootloader mode.
I have tried to run task29 but again because it has to be run through the usb it does not run past o%. I have also tried and am still trying mtty, but Windows 7 refuses to install the drivers provided in the post, and so am unable to loacate the device under USB. Is there anything else I could try to revive my HD2?
Thanks in advance for any help
try hspl2 to hspl 2.08 for rom NRG.after flach back NRG
Ok thanks will try that. I just extracted the nbh from the official Rom renamed it to LEOIMG.nbh and ran from the storage card. It started to run then stopped with the error- "Update Termintate UPDATE FAIL"
Any ideas....
Are you sure you have HSPL and not SPL? Double check, I made the same mistake before and it sits on 0%. If you have HSPL I would flash HSPL2 2.08 HSPL and try again.
Give this a go..!!!
Bro don't flash through the memory card..!!!
Just use the PC Platform method & flash the original ROM, I am 100% sure it'll work..!!!
Just lemme know if works for you..!!!
Best of LUCK..!!!
PS : - You gotta go to the BOOT LOADER & flash..!!!
Thanks for all your help. I used HSPL2 and updated to 2.08 and all is fine now. Gonna run a task29 now and reload the Rom.
Thanks again guys, amazing as ever!!!!
Cool, njoy flashing now..!!!
MOD's please close this thread..!!!

Struggling to downgrade WP7, Please help!!!

I'm trying reinstall WM6.5 on my HTC HD2 from MAGLDR V1.13.
I've downloaded the stock rom from HTC website and im trying run the installer but it fails it cant seem to pick up my phone as a USB connection.
I tried the bootloader way but it always get stuck at the installation part at 0%.
what am i? doing wrong, its driving me mad..
SPL version is SPL-2.08.0000
Make sure you’ve got more than 50% power on the device.
• Unplug USB cable
• Power Off device.
• Press and hold volume down button and press power button to start again.
• You will be presented with a tricolor splash screen.
• Connect USB cable to PC
• On the Tricolor splash screen you see “serial”; change to “usb”, if not unplug and plug the cable back in.
• As Administrator Run the WM6.5 ROM Update and follow instructions, your device should now be flashed with WM6.5.

I'd suggest task 29 to wipe the phone completly. Then make sure you have the correct stock rom for your phone. EG if you bought a EURO o2 HD2 then you need to have the o2 3.14 stock rom. Extract the .nbh file from the .exe.
Use SD Formatter to format your SD card, this will wipe all windows 7 partitions.
Then copy .nbh file and place it on the sd card, then boot into boot loader (tri colour screen) and follow on screen instructions. A grey screen should appear at this point.
This will remove Hard spl and restore WM 6.5 and also restore the first of the two splash screens and the radio back to factory settings and will also restore your warrently as well.

Thanks for this info, will try it. Have you got a link to task 29? Is it a software?
No but it is all over XDA. I think you'll find it someware on the WM 6.5 thread. If that doesn't work your nand will be stuffed but it has allways worked for me!

Task29 gives an error 290 and doesn't complete.
Im getting frustrated... What can i do next
task 29 now wipes my phone but everytime i flash a new rom is crashes at 9% or 10% and then i get the error 290.
i downloaded the stock rom for my phone... argggh what can be done?

Sounds like nand is dead. Looks as if you will have to return it to get it fixed!
i must agree with ghost ... sounds like you flashed the poor baby to death :'( sad sad day! and very rare i might add!

anyone? do i need to ring my phone contract people or go directly to HTC?
Thanks
Depends how old it is. It may need to go directly to HTC to get it fixed.
I read somewhere that error [290]: Invalid Command - the ROM Update Utility has encountered communication errors during the update process.
Try changing the usb cable/connect directly to usb port (not usb hub) if you still want to use usb for flashing.
I always use the sdcard method when there's a problem flashing via usb. Rename RUU_signed.nbh (extract from stock rom exe package) to LEOIMG.nbh and copy the file to sdcard (sdcard MUST be formatted as FAT32 - use HP format tool). Put sdcard into the phone and boot into bootloader mode ... see if it works ...

[Q] HTC HD2 bricked, can load bootloader cant install any ROM

HI everyone,
This is the first time for me posting a thread here...thanks in advance.
Well I have a HTC HD2 that is a friends of mines. He was trying to change the radio so it could work in another country and managed to brick the phone. He got tired of trying to fix the phone so he gave it to me. I have tried fixing it with a tool kit I downloaded in another thread here. I managed to get it to boot butt it wouldn't get past T-Mobile screen...I kept on messing with it trying to install a ROM and different radios but non will work and wont turn on anymore but still is able to be recognize but PC(not mobile media center) and the last thing I did was task29. It stopped at 99%...still can load bootloader 3 colors but having a harder time getting the phone recognize by PC. Can anyone help me before I get into a deeper hole?

HI everyone,
This is the first time for me posting a thread here...thanks in advance.
Well I have a HTC HD2 that is a friends of mines. He was trying to change the radio so it could work in another country and managed to brick the phone. He got tired of trying to fix the phone so he gave it to me. I have tried fixing it with a tool kit I downloaded in another thread here. I managed to get it to boot butt it wouldn't get past T-Mobile screen...I kept on messing with it trying to install a ROM and different radios but non will work and wont turn on anymore but still is able to be recognize but PC(not mobile media center) and the last thing I did was tasIt29. It stopped at 99%...still can load bootloader 3 colors but having a harder time getting the phone recognize by PC. Can anyone help me before I get into a deeper hole? If your need any more detail please ask me...btw the phone is running SPL- 3.03 HSPL in boot loader.

your friend shouldnt have flashed the radio without proper info !!
radio is the only thing which bricks the device !!!
dont worry we'll try to sort something out !!
firstly start with flashing a proper radio !!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
download the radio 2.15.50.14 from this thread and flash it !!
NOTE : if you cant flash radio from ur pc, via nbh installer or the toolkit, you can flash it from a memory card !!
just format a normal memory card, put the radio on the card, rename the radio file to LEOIMG.nbh and get to the bootloader screen !!
follow the instructions from there and flash the radio !!
secondly if you want android or wp7-7.5 on ur device !! hspl 3.03 wont work !!
so install hspl 2.08 for that !!
for winmo6.5 3.03 is ok !!
do a task 29 once and flash any rom or magldr(for android or wp7-7.5)!!
good luck .....
thanks for quick reply
I am trying to do what you instructed me.
Didn't work
I tried it on the PC and it sadly stopped @ 96%, now it wont turn on volume down+power. Battery was charged and i didn't turn off. It displayed error 262. as soon as I can I will try it on sd card. Thanks though.
I was not able to install the radio but did in fact get to task29 successfully and MAGLDR Version-1.13. Now my phone is stuck in the Stick together screen. Can anyone help me from here what should I do. thanks I will be waiting for a responce.
Do you still need help cos its really easy to unbrick your phone and I say this because once I flashed 5 different roms in 2 hours or less and my phone wouldn't even turn on and when it did it would get stuck on the tmObile splash screen and restart but I fixed it and now I'm running the best Rom out there lol... reply to this thread and I'll tell you what to do

leoimg.nbh won't start to install
Hi everyone,
I have a severe problem with my HTC HD2 after installing a NAND version of android which did not work very well, than wanting to reinstall winmob 6.5 (vodafone) it startet "loading" the leoimg.nbh from the SD-card, but than stayed in this status neverending. So I interrupted (was that the mistake?? :-( }. Now I'm able to start MAGLDR 1.13, am also able to install another NAND version, but with every version I get the message: problem with android.xxx and so on.
I can start the bootloader modus (SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE), also connect by USB, but if I try to reload any leoimg.nbh from SD card - it does nothing, just stays in the bootloader modus.
Did I destroy any hardware by interrupting the non functioning "loading"?
Please help, if you can, what I could do now to get a functioning NAND android again!
Many thanks in advance!!!
freak just try the task 29 and u might return everything to normal condition
and for future never interrupt the installation process as u can brick ur device
for the main topic, i can say that ur device is fully bricked and the only way is taking it to the service center or try flashing directly into the hardware, but thats dangerous and requires professional skills
Plz help!

Please can you help me.. I did the same thing.. it kept getting stuck at 0% and then i had to wait like an hour and then i tried again.. now its completely dead!
Please tell me what to do..
Thanks
First of all; This steps can solve your problem. But first of all(don't forget to check 2.08.HSL) try to use "Task29" and if it is success, load Radio ROM 2.15.50.14, and load original Winmo 6.5 ROM (Tmous or EU which phone do you use).
If you are stuck somewhere, then;
Download an original ROM for your HTC device from HTC webside.
- Format your SD card like FAT32 primary.
- Take "RUU_signed.nbh" from an original ROM and copy it to your SD card.
- Rename to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset your device while pressing the volume down button.
Radio ROM 2.15.50.14;
Radio ROM 2.15.50.14
HD2 Toolkit 4.2.0.1; ( contains task 29, magldr and recovery and also HSPL)

After several attempts to switch on the phone it finally turned on so I immediately installed stock ROM and it didn't get stuck on 0%.. it worked!!
Do you think I should perform a task 29 now or I can just proceed with installing a new radio and then installing a new ROM?
Thanks again mate!
Apparently I need to install SPL 2.08 before trying to install HSPL and then run android.. anyone know where I can find it?
Nevermind figured everything out Thanks anyway

If you want to change your ROM with one another like Android NAND ROM or Windows 6.5 ROM, then use this procedures.
For NAND Android ROM; You must flollow this sequence;
first check your device if it is 2.08.HSPL, and format your sdcard ext3 or ext4 and 1gb (which one you must use is pointed out by your Android chief). Copy new Android ROM into your sdcard's FAT32 section. insert it into your HTC device.
1. do task29
2. instal radio rom 2.15.50.14
3. install magldr 1.13
4. do recovery 5.0.2.6
5. do clear cache and dalvik cache.
6. Choose your android ROM .zip file on sdcard, load and enjoy...
For Windows 6.5 Follow this sequence;
first check your device if it is 2.08.HSPL, Format your sdcard like FAT 32 primary partition. insert it into your HTC device.
1. do Task29
2. Install Radio ROM 2.15.50.14
3. Run LeoCustomRUU.exe like "Run as Administrator" which Windows 6.5 rom you chose to use.

Are you booting into bootloader and connecting the device to your computer so you can get the HTC Sync connection. Just boot into bootloader by holding the volume down button down and poewering on your device. Connect it to your computer via USB and when you see Serial in the white bar of boo5tloader change to USB you have the HTC Sync connection and can flash your device.
I face a very odd problem with my HD2 EU. After years of 2 different versions of Android on nand I decided to reset it to stock(Vol down+power with leoimg.nbh in root of a FAT32 formatted microsd). When I get in bootloader mode there seem to be 2 instances of bootloader. The first 3 colour screen with all the right wordings lasts a second or two then I get a second 3 colour screen with the same wordings. With my Verbatim 8Gb class4 microsd formatted FAT32 and leoimg.nbh (obtained from the original RUU_Leo_HTC_ITA_1.66.408.1_Radio_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Signed_LEO_Ship.exe) in the root directory, the device does not recognize the file and it's not possible to restore the phone to stock, but I can only get into usb connection.
Being able to get in usb mode with the various versions of HSPL (1-2-3-4) I can still change the bootloader. With the HD2 Android toolkit 4.2.0.1 I can install cLK, Magldr, do a Task29 and repartition.
When I use the RUU installer I can install the RUU_signed.nbh that I used to get the leoimg.nbh BUT when I do it, and it does finish gracefully, on the screen that states the currently installed image THE INDICATION OF SUCH AN IMAGE IS BLANK whilst the name of the image to install is the one I am flashing.If I reflash the same image AGAIN (so I know what's on the device) the info of the installed image is never displayed.So after trying the various bootloaders HSPL and SPL and getting the same result you are my only resort.
Has anybody experienced such a problem? It is as if the the bootloader goes through a script that then starts a second "identical" bootloader (I understand that I may seem crazy) that is not capable of recognizing a leoimg.nbh. All my buttons are still working so it's definitely not a button problem. Therefore in a nutshell the question is: if I can't get the device to recognize a leoimg.nbh is there any other way to make it do so, given that I can communicate via usb without problems ?
