i got this phone 1 day, and it's already dead
i installed hspl, and a custom wwe rom, it was working fine. But then it froze on me, when i tried to start opera, it said it was clearing the memory or something. When i rebooted the phone, at first it refused to boot, froze at the pink circle.
now i got it to boot a couple of times, and HTC sense is mostly gone, i get to see an ugly Win M version... I cant get the phone to connect, so i can reinstall another firmware ... what can i do?
It's just a pretty expensive flashlight now.

Try flashing it by SD card method
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
2. Download your prefered Rom from the LEO Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your PC
3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh
4. Copy the LEOIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card
5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone
6. Reset the device while pressing the volume down button to enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top
7. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update
8. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device.
I tried
and failed.
I uploaded the nbh from your signature to my freshly formatted Fat32 microsd card
the tricolore screen came up. It said something about reading, and some digits at the top (005 something), back to the tricolore screen.
and now its been like that for about an hour... (PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-1.42.HSPL XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0X10 in the top red part
SERIAL in the white...
what can i do? There has to be a way...
plug in the usb whilst on the three colored screen. when serial becomes usb flash your rom from usb.

wow, i feel like a fool for not thinking about this
thanks a lot, works like a charm again!
no worries.
when you look in bootloader, if it says spl x.x.hspl then you can flash anything from usb. if it said x.x.0000 then it would only accept roms specific to your model/region/provider.
its worth remembering you can flash hspl from the bootloader screen too.
oh and when it was sticking at the pink circle,,,,,, almost certainly because you hadn't flashed a compatible radio.
if it happens again go into bootloader and flash the radio, just like flashing a rom.
i think giving your hd2 a hard reset will make it work again.
I did exactly the same thing. Have flashed ROMs before on other devices and foolishly plunged straight into to flashing my HD2 without reading the instructions carefully; i.e. check the battery level is >50%, ensure you have HardSPL'd and flash the correct radio version first.
I tried Energy ROM Build 21907 and had it working for a while until I powered off and then tried to switch on again and it froze with a pink circle showing. I had checked the radio version (2.04) but had not heeded the warning to use 2.07.50 or higher, avoid 2.xx.51 like the plague etc. Just plain hadn't followed instructions.
Doing a soft reset doesn't work.
Doing a hard reset doesn't work.
Hitting one's head against a wall does not work.
Following samsamuel's advice about plugging in after hard reset does work:
- Have your Windows PC ready but don't plug in the device yet
- Download CustomRUU.exe and the correct radio file
- Rename the radio file to RUU_signed.nbh
- Hold the device's Vol Down and Power keys, let em go and do a hard reset
- You'll see the tricolour screen and you should see HSPL near the top and "Serial" at the bottom
- Plug in the USB cable and "Serial" changes to "USB"
- Run CustomRUU on your PC and follow the instructions
Thank you very much, samsmuael, for rescuing me on this occasion.
I had a frightnening experience in the same vein today also.....
Decided to go for my first flash........which turned into 3...
Anyway I flashed an energy rom...........
Then a cleanex which left me unable to connect via activesync........
Had a quick panic.........got on here for some answers and found something about flashing via cable from bootloader.......... Panic over
Flashed to another energy rom.......... all is well again......
Only problem is what to flash next........
oh i got a serious problem
after I install MAGLDR 1.11 my HD2 it succeed and did reboot and then it did stuck in white screen with hTC green log.
What to do? It cannot connect it to the sync with computer when it is with this screen. I tried so many time to reset it (with pressing long the power bottom) but I didn’t get MAGLDR 1.11 boot menu, so I cannot proceed to the next step which is installing NAND
My HTD looks like with no operating system only with white screen with hTC green log, What to do? Any help PlZzZzZzZzZzzzz?

Do you have 2.08HSPL on your phone?
Hold the volume key down while you turn on your phone, then you will see the tri-color screen. and the hardspl you have.
I suggest you follow this
Make your you have flashed HSPL 2.08.
it can be found easily using search option
after that boot it to tri-color screen.
( hold volume down key and boot your phone)
Sync your phone with pc using active sync
then down there on your phone screen will say USB
now find
"Task29 provided by doloop"
in the forum.
use that to flash everything from your phone.
after that it will automatically boot into white htc logo screen and not proceed
(due to there's nothing remaining.) just ignore it and
reset your phone while pressing volume down key to enter tri-color screen
now flash mgldr.
after that your phone will boot into mgldr
then follow the instructions on forum about nand builds
PS/If you are using XP you have to make your when usb flasher
it says wait usb...usb(connect via active sync) then uncheck "the allow usb connection" on active syncs connection settings. then proceed will rom installers
hope this will help.

YOU DON'T NEED SUCH BIG FONTS
This is what you need to do:
Unplug battery to turn device off
Put battery back in to device
Hold the Volume down button, do not let go
Press and release the power button to turn on the device
when you see the RED/GREEN/BLUE screen, plug in your USB cable to phone and computer
Run HSPL3 and update to HSPL 2.08
When done, the phone will Reboot, when screen turns off, press and hold the Volume Down button, if you don't, you will have to remove battery, put it back, hold the volume button, then turn on the device again.
when you see the RED/GREEN/BLUE screen again, make sure USB cable is connected to phone and computer install RADIO 2.15.50.14
Now MAGLDR will work.

What doesn't work? If OP just takes his time to read and understand all wat d above posters have posted, then he'll surely successfully get android on his device...The steps above have been used by thousands over and over again WITHOUT fail!!!...
Same problem. I have reinstalled around 20 times following steps you say and still stucks in white screen.

It's a simple process. If you are getting stuck at white screen the chances are you are not doing one of the first 2 steps as below.
FIRST: You have to install 2.08.HSPL (no other HSPL version and not an spl ending in .0000). Check in bootloader that you have 2.08.hspl NOT 2.08.0000.
SECOND: You have to install a 2.xx.50.xx radio (it has to be a .50 radio and not a .51 radio). Use 2.08.50.xx or higher .50 radio.
THIRD: Install magldr from bootloader by running the romupdateutility file.
I know. Please Believe I have 2.08.HSPL and 2.15.50.15 Radio installed several times without errors but same result.
Could be a HW problem? any other solution?

Had similar problem with MAGLDR, had no idea what to do. Found this forum and these instructions. Took some fiddling but finally got it working. THANX SO MUCH!!!
same problem doesnt work
WM6.5 on my HD2 (from T-Mobile europe) has finally bothered me enough to decide to change the rom entirely, to android (NAND). I saw the instructions/video tutorial by techburrow (including the magldr v 1.11) and thought that it wouldn't give me too much troubles.
Before starting, I checked my ROM to see if it was recent enough. I as well installed hspl v 2.08 (as shown after taking battery out/in and using volume down + startbutton, in the rgbw screen).
After that I (think I) successfully installed MAGLDR v 1.11. It showed the comment that my phone was now "hacked".
I then went on to the most important step in the process, actually loading android. In the instructions for DFT_Android is states that:
" For installation you need enter MAGLDR (hold power button during boot)"
I tried getting into bootloader by holding the power button, I tried pressing it once and then holding it. Neither worked, both ended up with the HTC logo screen.
All I can do now is choose between getting the HTC logo and the rgbw screen showing hspl 2.08.
Hard reset also doesn't work, probably because MAGLDR deleted the original rom. Connecting through USB via the rgbw screen doesnt work, the connection is not recognised.
Other thread look similar problem, but haven't helped so far. Only the most recent are about others trying to get the android on NAND with MAGLDR 1.11 and DFT-Android.
HELP? Anybody has any idea on how I can install android any ROM now, how to get into the bootloader, how to use my HD2 again?
Looks like Magldr was not flash into the phone. Reflash magldr.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
unfortunately
Thx for the suggestion, xhanay. However, reflashing MAGLDR requires an activesync connection and/or USB connection via HSPL (only way my phone does anything). Cannot get any connection unfortunately. So no reflashing.
Any other suggestions? (reflashing via microSD?)
help!i have the really same problem!thx!
This is what I do:
1. Remove the battery, put it back
2. Hold VolDown key pressed while turn on the phone to enter Bootloader (tricolored screen)
3. Connect it to PC and wait for connection to change to USB
4. Flash radio 2.15.50.14
5. Hold VolDown key pressed after reboot to enter bootloader again.
6. Flash MAGLDR
7. Reboot
8. Hold Power button pressed > Select USB flasher ...
....and flash Android/Windows 7.
If USB connection is not recognized I suggest flashing a stock ROM using SD card.
See instructions here, chapter 3 - Flashing Via MicroSD Card
could just work
Thank you for the quick response. Hopefully I will make it all the way to step 8+ (with android and all apps coming along with it). Otherwise using the stock rom should help. Thx for the link.
Will let you know if it works.
Also post in the right section in the future
All worked. I had to reflash a custom ROM through the rgbw screen (apparently a custom ROM did synchronise via USB even though activesync didnt show anything). Then I reinstalled MAGLDR (which immediately sent me through to the bootlader screen). After I had some issues loading android (had to tag USB on in Activesync connection settings, make the connection, the tag USB off in the connection settings)... Now Android is running as I hoped it would. Great work and thanx to all that helped.
ps: Will try to use the right section next time. No promises that it will then be the right one however.
I have the same problem and tried this only to be sent back into magdlr where it just scrolls up and down with the volume key held down.
Any suggestions much appreciated.

Hi All,
I think I'm in big trouble...
Just 1hr ago, I found the files for upgrading HD2 to WP7 on this: aliwaqas.info/download-windows-phone-7-wp7-rom-for-htc-hd2/
I followed all the first steps and got everything set, which means:
•Download the Windows Phone 7 ROM from here and extract its contents to your computer.
•Installed the HARDSPL 2.08. Radio is OK.
•Connect your HTC HD2 to your computer via USB and run ‘ROMUpdateUtility.exe’ from the MAGLDR 1.2 folder which you have extracted earlier. <==== Now here I had everything OK as in the video at first, untill my phone kept showing the starting screen (htc logo in green in white font) it is frozen on this screen and nothing else!
•Plus, i didnt see the on-screen instructions to install MAGLDR on HTC HD2 and there is no option to select 'USB Flasher'
Output: my phone is frozen, no ROM no nothing. and I can't even install from the beginning, as now I cant connect it to the PC by USB. This is serious, it means my phone is no more good.
Please can someone help?
thanks alot,
Yaelha
Did you try holding the vol down button and pressing the power button to enter tri color boot?
Also MAGLDR 1.13 is available install that instead of 1.12
Hi - I'm trying to ugrade to WP7 ROM.
I tried the tri color boot, and figured out that the problem of the white screen is from the radio version.
So i installed now the right Radio version, and MAGLDR is running... I selected the 'USB Flasher' and it is running, till it stopped now with the following message on the black screen:
"USB Flasher mode
Wait USB.... USB".
do you have an idea of what to do next?
Thx
ok its DWI time
all you need to do now is run the dwi in the rom you downloaded and your away....
the message you see is your phone waiting to recieve the rom.
then you just need the activation key......
Coool... it's all installed now...
Ok now that you have the WP7 on HD2... what to do next? i'll try to fetch on the General forum... because i need to synch everything up, and get the 3G configured back (which im struggling to do)...
thanks all,
Yaelha
Hello,
I wanted to change my android rom with another one so As I always do I backed up everything, I connected my phone to the computer (with screen with 3 colors) and I did a task29 from the HD2Toolkit. everything seemed fine but when I tried to reboot to the screen with 3 colors holding the volume down nothing happens and the phone is stuck on the T-mobile screen "stick together" how can I get to the Bootloader so I can flash again?
Thank you
You have to hold the volume down button down while you power on your HD2. This will boot your HD2 into bootloader.
