Install without USB?

It seems Magldr has broken my phones usb connection some how. In both magldr and bootloader it does not recognize a usb connection. My computer pops up with 'Usb Device Not Recognized' but its still stuck on serial in bootloader.
Ive tried uninstalling Windows Mobile Device center with no luck. Seems like I have no hope unless I can install anything directly from my SD card?
I am at the moment running a stable version of Andriod but I'd really like to upgrade to Gingerbread and can't do that at them moment when I can't establish any USB connection
Help will be hugely appreciated because I feel like I'm going to be stuck with this forever.

Help cannot get active sync

Hello I am trying to get active sync to work but when i go into the bootloader and plug in the usb windows installs the driver for the sync from htc i really need to install magldr 1.13 but i cannot get past the driver any ideas
thanks in advance

You do not need active sync. If you want to install MAGLDR just start bootloader and flash from there Hold Volume Down while starting the phone you will get the TriColored screen plug the phone into computer at the bottom of the phone it will say USB then click ROMUpdateUtility in the MAGLDR folder you downloaded. If the phone doesnt say USB try a different USB port

cannot sync in bootloader

I am going to try on a different computer this afternoon. But I tried Everything you said Got to the bootloader just fine i even tried running the ROMupdateutility as admin. It gets to the progress bar just after you click update and then comes back with a usb error. I cannot seem to figure what the problem is other than my driver is not working properly. so i tried to uninstall the driver and it keeps reinstalling the htc usb sync driver form the windows update. like i said ill try it on a different computer and see if that works. thanks for your reply though.

Yes the problem is in your computer. It happened same with my laptop an computer. I formated and installed fresh copy of windows on the laptop. Now it is O.K.

thanks alot that was i thought about doing but...... I have Like a terrabyte to backup

First try reinstalling ActiveSync and try using a different usb port (preferably one at the back of the pc). Boot into bootloader and connect to pc, you need to see "usb" displayed on the phone screen.

You need active sync from ms. Not from htc. It's the soft provided by ms to sync wm devices. Normally it's downloaded when you connect your device. Check if windows try to install the driver. After you will also need the adb driver. For this one you need the android sdk.

ROM code error and unrecognised USB connection...urgent help!

Guys,
im in extremely deep **** now.I accidentally tried flashing a stock ROM via SD card and now ive gt a ROM code error and 00028002 'Not Allow" error.What makes this worse is that my Vista computer is not recognizing any USB connection when i connect my HD2 to the computer.If i need to flash a stock rom via RUU wrapper to get through this stupid ROM code error, i need a USB connection on the first place...which IS NOT WORKING NOW!!!...im using a 512MBLeo,which is now stuck at SPL-1.42(previously HSPL)...im sitting duck here guys...i really really need your help on this one.i cant boot normally into 6.5,i cant flash a new ROM,i cant use bootloader and flash a LEOIMG using SD card cus it returns the above errors and i cant use my PHONE!!!...im extremely frustrated and helpless.please help guys...thanks alot...

If I understand you can still get to bootloader correct?
Exactly what official ROM did you try to flash?
Where did you get the ROM from?
Just so you know you can still flash HSPL with the 1.42.0000 SPL you have.
ROM code error usually means that official ROM is not for that HD2.

I flashed '1.48.405.2' which i downloaded from the net(http://theunlockr.com/2010/04/22/how-to-get-the-htc-hd2-back-to-stock/)...I tried flashing LEOIMG(SD card method) from Elegancia GTX v5.0 ROM,but thats returning the same error plus...it gets stuck on the white 'loading screen'.I know i can flash HSPL or any other stock rom with my current SPL,but my USB connection is not working...thats exactly the problem now...any idea where to get the actual stock ROM for my HD2?...Maybe that might prevail...Thanks.

Yes go to htc.com amd enter the serial number of your HD2 (can be found under the battery) and it will only let you download the ROMs that are for your HD2. Also make sure the HTC site you go to is for your part of the world, It has links on the site to go to HTC sites for other countries.
As for your no USB go to your device manager in control panel and find your HD2 ther while it is connected via USB it will be listed as unknown, mobile device, or something like that but it will be there. Just click on it once to get it to drop down to the actual device and then right click it and select update drivers and then select from internet. If this does not work download the latest version of Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) and install it to your computer and this should give you the drivers you need.

Alright ill try all that and get back to you.Thanks alot for your advice!

Error Resolved
First,i would like to say thanks to you, T-Macgnolia.The ROM downloaded from the HTC website, which i flashed via sd card worked like a dream...However, the same cant be said for my USB connection though(I tried everything you said).My computer still keeps dropping USB connections intermittently...i miraculously managed to flash HSPL 3 on my HD2 just before the USB connection dropped.I was running WM 6.5 and android previously and i want to dual boot wp7 and android...which needs a USB connection(for MAGLDR and WP7)...Charging works fine via AC charger and via USB port(its just USB connection itself...any ideas where the fault lies?).i personally think the problem lies with my USB cable(as other devices work fine with the USB ports in my laptop). Guess i just have to buy a new micro usb cable(...thanks for your advice again.

Yeah buy a new cable and see if that helps. If the problem pursists then you probably have a problem with the pins in your micro USB port of your HD2 that are randomly loosing connection to the main board because the solder points for the USB port is become cracked, loose, or just seperating for some reason. You might can find a cell phone repair shop that can resolder the connections for you are just Chang the intierior main board out for you ifcthis is the problem.

HD2 USB connection does not work

Hello,
I have a HTC HD2 running on a Android NAND ROM.
I have to unlock the SIM. I was told I had to go back to Windows Mobile first.
Problem is, my USB connection does not work.
WHen the phone is on android, if I plug the cable, my phone recognizes it but nothing happens on my PC (windows 7)
When I am on the bootloader screen, it is only written "Serial" but never "USB".
Tried several cords/USB ports...
Phone isn't connecter in Windows Mobile manager either.
Any advice, please ?

Sometimes you can introduce unlock code from Android too...Try this with another SIM and see it it asks for SIM/network code!
But if still want WM, you should flash it from micro-sd.

Check to make sure you have the proper drivers installed on your computer first, if not you can always download hd2 drivers off xda. This is probably the easiest and safest thing to do first. otherwise, like above you can try it though android and see what happens. Best bet is to instal WM 6.5 with a broke usb is through sd card, but that is not without its risks. Check the forums for the file and "how to" guide, i remember reading it once. Also, not sure how you will back to Android without usb port to flash magldr or cwm? Good Luck with whatever you decide to do, maybe someone else has other ideas.

[Q] HD2 stucked after SD card stock ROM flashing

Hi!
I don't know if this is a right forum but I run into a problem that I can't solve. I had some Android NAND version that stoped to work after a SD card was formated (silly but true). It loaded almost fully but it didn't show any icons and nothing was functional. Even wasn't recognised on PC in bootloader mode. So I decided to go back to stock ROM via SD card. And then it went to 9% and error occured. I tryed to flash again but it goes just to "Loading..." screen and nothing happens.
The worst thing is that HD2 is still unrecognized by PC via USB so I can't do anything via USB. The USB port on HD2 is OK, it was working with HTC Sync on Android ROM, tryed 2 differnet SD cards (FAT32), Windows XP and WIndows 7, HTC Sync, MS mobile device center and Activesync and no luck. Any ide what to do, at least what driver should I use?
All the answers I found include a step with USB flashing and I can't do it...

ok. reinstall windows mobile device center (win 7, vista) or activesync (xp)
open it, connection settings, uncheck allow usb connections and try again. also make sure that you aren't using a usb hub. try other usd ports.
wait a bit. phone drivers should be installed and serial should turn to usb (if drivers installation fails or if this doesnt work, open device manager, and delete the qualcomm usb driver or windows ce (don't remember which one it is in bootloader mode), unplug and let it install it again)
after installation of usb driver succeeds, you should see usb at the bottom of the screen. after that point you can try reflashing official roms

Thank you for your help. I solved my problem and saved my HD2
I was using original USB cable that came with HD2. Then I switched it with USB cable that came with my Evo 3D and that cable is thicker than original HD2. At first attempt HD2 was recognized and after all a driver (Qualcom USB) was installed so I flashed all the way to WP 7.8.
O, what a joy, I tought that I ended with bricked HD2, and now I have WP 7.8 device )))
