Bought one in China (help with rom needed)

I bought one of these in China. Not a Chinese one, an actual T-Mobile USA one (much cheaper). The current ROM is in Chinese, and everytime it boots up it has a xda-china logo on the start-up screen, so I'm guessing it's a custom job.
Either way, I want to flash it to an English custom ROM, and I won't have a problem following your excellent tutorials. Except, I worry if it's already been flashed with a custom rom then it wall already have HSPL. Is there a way I can check this, and if not, is anything bad likely to happen by attempting to flash it if it is already on the phone?
Thanks for any help.

Boot into bootloader and check to see what is listed there. To get into bootloader: turn the phone off, then hold volume down+power.
Look forward to your response.

It seems to have HSPl installed already although not the latest one.
You shall start flashing custom ROMs straight away
If possible, update the HSPL to 2.08HSPL.

If that just means following the HSPL tutorial I'll do that now.
Thanks for everything.

did you just flash a cooked rom and haven't yet changed the radio?

probably. ive no idea what to do know to be honest ive given it to repair they said the main board needs to be changed but i dont think its a hardware problem. could u tell me what to do. step by step. i flashed a rom thats true but i havent flashed a radio before doing it.

I think you forgot to flash Radio ROM - look into thread of the ROM you flashed, there must be info about radios which are "approved"

thing is i dont know which rom is flashed right now and ive no idea about the radio also.

First of all - if you want to do something - read first and gather some info, otherwise you'll have problems.
And if the problem really is with radio, then try THIS first, it should help

just flash a high version radio, which should work regardless of what rom is there.
2.12.50.x or 2.10.50, one of them.

I am flashing the radio from sd and it says
00018003
LEOIMG.nhb - FAIL
Radio - Fail
Update Terminate
Update fail

i am no expert but perhaps try following this method picking a rom you like and also an exceptable radio. good luck

try flashing a different rom and see what happens

oh right its been back to service and got refused,
run hspl2,
choose a stock spl (so 1.66.0000 for a normal hd2 or hspl3 and choose 2.08.0000 for a tmous phone,) and send it back again.

hspl wont change the version =(

oh, well all i can suggest then is you try hspl2, ever option, and hspl3, every option, , maybe one of them can trigger the spl to change.

wont work =(

Return HD2 Back to Stock

My touch screen decided to take a crap on me. Tmobile is sending me a replacement in the mail which should be here in about 5-7 days.
I just need some help returning the phone back to stock. I already removed ChunkyRom using Task29. Then booted the phone to the bootloader to flash the updated Tmobile rom. Now when I boot this is what the screen shows.

My dad has the same phone (completely stock) and this is what his shows:

spl-2.10.0000 8g xe

MicroP(Touch) 0x40
So I am not sure. I just dont want tmobile to charge my account. Thank you for the advice. I tried to follow some of the posts already on this amazing forum but I wasnt having any luck. I promise I tried to search!

Yeh I am having the same exact problem...My screen just stopped working out of no where and now I need to revert back to original rom radio and hspl...anyone got a link or instructions?

Download your official stock rom. Extract it to get the nbh file. Rename that nbh to LEOIMG.nbh. Copy it to your SDcard, and flash in bootload mode. This should reverse your HSPL back to spl

This is the part where I am confused. I renamed the file to LEOIMG.nbh but I dont have a clue how to flash it when I am in the bootloader mode.

you not seached for the million and 1 posts about how to return to stock???if its copied right, instead of boot loader it will have LEOIMG to install..search to do it right

Well I formatted my SD card to FAT32 and put the LEOIMG.nbn on the sim card. Boot the phone to the bootloader and it doesn't automatically go to the other screen that is needed to flash the phone.

This is all you have to do..
This is all you have to do:
1. Download HSPL3_PKG, don't ask where, google it!
2. Extract and run as if you were going to flash the HSPL, hit next on first screen, now you get a drop down list, select 2.08.0000 not 2.08.HSPL.
3. Run the program and tarraaaaa.
4. NOw just flash your stock rom the normal way and not from sd since it still didn't work for me after removing HSPL.

Hi, after reading loads of posts on this forum I think I managed to put my phone back to stock as I need to return it to HTC.
I had HSPL with some custom rom.
Here are the details from my phone after removing HSPL and Cusrom ROM:
With volume down:
PB81100HX-BC
SPL-1.42.000 XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(Touch) 0x30
Installed rom
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
I will appreciate if anyone can tell me if this is a Stock HD2.
Thanks !

If you have the 3.10 stock ROM then yes that is correct, but if you have the 3.14 stock ROM you need SPL 3.03.0000.
I like the pic for your avatar too by the way.

Yes. All SPL xx.0000 is a stock SPL

T-Macgnolia said that if you have 3.14 rom you need SPL 3.03.0000 to make it a stock version, but mine is SPL-2.10.000 and 3.14 rom, if i return it for warranty exchange are they gonna find out that i hacked it and restored it back?
Thanks

Yea I've mentioned this several times, that the tmous 3.14 doesn't seem to update the spl. Its not a problem because it will run happily on spl 2, unlike regular hd2 which will not run 3.14 on anything less than spl 3.03.

How to identify stock rom??

I have purchased HTC HD2 stuck in boot screen. Only white screen with HTC logo (no red letters with spl etc.)
Now i want to try flash it with stock rom from SD card but i do not now what rom to flash.
Is there a way to identify what is stock rom for my device.
I can enter in bootrom.
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-1.66.0000 XE

MicroP(TOUCH) 0x40
Serial on device starts with HT03CNW....
Please help.

well it doesn't really matter what's on there already if its not booting, just flash any stock rom too check it actually works them change if you need to.
if its a tmous then make sure you flash a compatible stock rom.
if its a branded device then you may find some roms wont flash and you ned to "goldcard" it.

Flash OK, HD2 still stuck in boot screen
Hello,
I have flashed HD2 with RUU_Leo_S_HTC_NLD_3.14.404.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship.
After starting flash radio was flashed, then flash restarted hd2 and then started from begining and everithing flashed OK. i restarted hd2 but status remained the same.
It booted in white screen with HTC logo but there were no red leters in lower part of screen.
Also hd2 after HTC logo vibrated six times. I left phone in that state for 20 minutes, but nothing hapened.
What to do??
In bootloader now:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-3.03.0000 XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(Touch) 0x40
Any suggestions??

not sure, sorry.
im not that clued up on flashing issues, someone will have an answer for you though...

It sounds as though it may be a operator locked phone and it won't upgrade to a HTC stock ROM.
Where and how did you download the 3.14 ROM?
Any info you can tell us about the phone, ie USA or International, locked to an operator or SIM free?

I downloaded 3.14 from htc.nl site. I wrote serial and it permited me to download fw.
I purchased phone on eBay from guy in Netherlands. He stated that phone is not locked. The rest i do not know.
Yesterday i downgraded spl to 1.42 with sspl and then instaled HSPL 2.
I upgraded to WWE 1.48 but status remain the same.
Also i tryed with mtty and task 28 and task 29 but that also did not change status.
Thanks,
D

Go into bootloader, Install MAGLDR and then install the rom you want.

The BootLoader starts on the phone after press and hold volume down and power button,and MAGLDR ist the file ROMUpdateUtility.exe right ? When i make this he says Image From:here stays nothing
To: Image Version : 2.00.000.0
and after a whie i become a error code 229 i mean.
and the bootload is the screen with red,green,blue and white or
Im not understand who i can find this 4. Boot LEO and select in the menu "4. USB Flasher" ???

you need to start from the beginning ... follow those steps:
1. flash stock rom with sd card method ( go download with your hd2 serial number from htc if you have hd2 leo, otherwise go to t-mobile if you have tmob version)
2.Flash hsdp 2.08
3. flash radio
4.flash MAGLDR or cLK
5.Flash android rom - follow exact guide provided when you download android rom.

Radio,,, no rgd info on splashscreen is radio.
Flash a ..50.. Radio before anything else.
