I tried earlier today to flash my 8125 using ShellTool and now my phone powers up, but just stays at the IPL, SPL Cingular screen...I let it sit for over an hour with no change...tried a bunch of different things from what I have been reading here on the forums to no avail. Now when I run ShellTool it seems to do nothing...any other things I could try?
Okay, was finally able to get the HTC ROM downloaded and now it's flashing back to the original ROM (I hope). What's the best ROM to use nowdays?
I've tried many different roms and so far NBD seems to be the best.
Got it up and running. I'm going to start flashing tomorrow and see what happens.

So after having my Mogul for quite sometime, I figured it was time to upgrade the ROM which includes the GPS, etc etc. I followed all the instructions to the "t" and when I go to update it, the phone goes to the tri-color and says "USB" at the bottom...but on my computer, it stays stuck at 0%.
I've left it go for almost 30 minutes. I end up having to shut down the update and reboot my phone. Luckily my phone wasn't affected at all. (whew!) I've tried this three times and all end up being stuck.
I'm new to all this, so ANY help would be greatly appreciated. I've searched for this same occurrence but have not read about any resolutions to the problem.
Thanks for any help!
Anyone have any suggestions?
Right now I have ROM version: 2.09651.3
I have downloaded a ROM for the Quest 'version' of the Mogul which is 3.35.656.2....will this work?
I dont get why it wont update and install the ROM.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
what version of bootloader are you using?
if its not giving you an error try letting it go overnight. Maybe its just going REAL slow.
Other than that, try one of the intermediate ROMs first, or try re-downloading the ROM and going from that.
The process is pretty simple, sync, backup anything important, establish activesync/MWDC connection, run the RUU, press yes several times, restore backup/resync.
Did you ever unlock the phone? The sprint ROMs wont load with an unlocked phone, AFAIK.
not sure what you mean by version of bootloader....
As far as running reall slow, not sure, I might try that if nothing else works.
I'm going to try the 3.35 ROM and see if that works. So stupid that it is such an easy task, yet it doesnt work....and I never "unlocked" the phone...its basically factory straight from Sprint. Again, it was bought back in December 2007 so the ROM on it is pretty 'dated'
I'll let ya know what happens...
2.09... lol.
that rom was slooow. screen flickered.
lockups.
your problem is that you cannot use a rom from a different carrier unless you unlock first. Just get the latest sprint rom and flash it.
edit: perhaps i read your post wrong. do you have the sprint or qwest rom? the qwest rom will not work. the sprint rom should work fine providing the phone has not been unlocked with olipro 1.2. Check the bootloader version when in the tri color screen. if it says olipro 1.2 then you need to update to 2.4.
If it's stock then you should be good. you could try putting the phone into bootloader before running the ruu. sometimes this helps the connection since it doesn't mess with activsync. to get to bootloader hold power + camera and hit the reset button.
I used an un-locker and now I'm stuck in the boot loader screen. I've tried to flash back to 3.56 and 3.16 and neither of them work. 3.56 goes to 11% and then resets itself. I tried Cokeman's titanex_bl and it doesn't work. I tried hard resetting, taking out battery then hard resetting and then flashing, none of it works. I'm not bricked, I think ? But I can't restore. So I don't know what to do. If anyone has something I can do I'd love them forever. I've looked around a bunch of sites for an hour now looking around and I can't find a thing. It says I have no image as my rom. It says, "TITA 100
SPL-1.20.Olipro" On my bootloader if that makes a difference.
Nevermind I got it to work by installing 2.08 -.-
Hello, normally I never have a issue with a HTC phone upgrade and unlock however today I am. This 8525 from Cingular is giving me a headache.
I was trying to update it to 3des.3.5 which everything was going smooth, it went to 60% then froze up, it wanted to do the recovery, which said it succeeded. Cept never will do the rom upgrade now. It DID change the bootscreen to the 3des when powering up now, and I can still manually get myself to the tricolor screen, which is IPL 1.01 SPL 1.06 so it did something.
Everytime I goto the tricolor screen and connect the USB, AS starts saying it cant recognize the device and to reconnect it or disable the usb.
I try to do the ROM flashing and it triggers the 8525 to the upgrade white screen, stays at 0% and errors out saying to do recovery, which it says after the steps that it succeeded in fixing the recovery and to try to the rom upgrade again.
So my question is.. how do I get it back running again? I mean if AS doesnt wanna notice it correctly, and just need to get it back on track. Need some advice if anyone can help me out? Been reading alot of threads atm.. but when its not letting me flash since at 0% it errors out as soon as it starts doing stuff.
Later Edit: OHHHHH Yeaaa, Using a official signed version of cingular 1.06 to upgrade it back again and its going past 0%. =D Taking its time but so far its upgrading. Seems the other cingular one I downloaded thinking it was a official one was a modified one, so it errored out as well. So hopefully this puts things back on track and I can go back to square one to upgrade to a custom one. =D
Edit: Woot got it back up and running. Now to try this all again >.> (Back of my mind says quit while Im ahead, but my pride says Ill do this my way like I do ever other htc I worked on...)
Hi there,
Have been using since a while the Energy Rom's.
Always had HSPL2 in use with a Energy Rom and
the most stable Radio.
Well since a week of 2 I can't flash anymore. I still
have HSPL2, used TASK29 to clean everything up.
Now I can't flash a new Energy Rom, it keeps hanging
on 100%. I can do the TASK29, but after using TASK29,
and trying to flash a new rom it keeps hanging. It gives
me an Error-message called 262; but I checked everything
(other pc, cable, other USB port everything).
Has anyone a idea what to do? I haven't been able to
use my phone for 2 weeks now!
(last versions I used: RadioRUU_Leo_Radio_15.40.50.07U_2.12.50 ROM-Energy.Leo.23569.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jun.22)
Cheers!
Anyone? pleaaaaaaaaaaseeeeeee
what info does you're bootloader show
Well I've got some new info!
I installed HSPL3 this evening, with 2.08SPL,
wiped the phone with task29, rebooted, put
in the USB cable, flashed the new dinik glass
16th july Energy Rom and that worked. After
that I hard resetted my phone and again put
in the USB, tried to flash a radio but now THAT
keeps stucking @ 96% (Radio_2_12_50_02_2).
What could that be? Tried under Vista, Windows 7
XP, 3 different laptops, other cable; everything.
I wiped it again and again. Also tried with 2.07 one
but that also doesn't work!
Do you have any idea?
em this is a good en lol, have you tried to flash a radio then hard reset then task 29 then flash rom then hard reset again?? its just ideas
Also tried ;-)
Doesn't work for me
Keeps hanging
Did you try the micr sd method. the one where you do not need to use your PC. Might be silly but it would eliminate any problem with the PC or cable.
will try it this evening
but I don't think thats the problem? because I CAN use my usb
to flash the energy rom
how long are you waiting? the reason I ask is because I flashed Radio 2.12 just a few hours ago and it hung at 96% for a couple min before it finally finished up.

idd, that radio version hangs for some time on 96%, so give it more time
Serious guys?
Hmmm then I will task29 my phone within a few minutes
and flash rom again + radio, and then just wait with the
radio until it's ready! Good plan!!!!
Still not working guys! I'm really really fed up with this phone.
Haven't been able to use the phone for ages now. Have tried
to flash radio and rom for about 1000x times; the TASK29
works, after that I flash the ROM that works 6/10 times,
after that I hardreset the phone, and sometimes it will boot
untill the white bootscreen and otherwise I can't even turn
it on (problem with 3-pins battery connector?) and I have to
wait or have to pull out the battery again and again. But after
all, the radio can't be flashed at all, it keeps hanging on 96%
over and over and over again.

Hello dude!
Try downloading another radio version.
Try also downloading again the 2.12 radio. It could be a download corruption! I heard a case like yours and it was caused by "bad download"
Tell us if it works, right?
Good luck!
Jooo
Tried with various versions, with more radio's and more CUSTOMRUU-versions, but it still doesn't work!
Any idea? Still doens't work
try
try flash your original rom from htc and change te HardSPL to the original one ike 1.66.00000 or 1.48.000000 and then flash the stock rom
It's not working, have done TASK29, tried to flash the stockrom but it's hanging on 9%, did task29 again and again and tried with various stockroms.
I was having the same problem but with radio , also 9% try flashing the original radio
Yeah well, what else can I do now?
I downloaded the WWE stockrom (1.43 or do I need a higher number) from the
official stock rom thread here at XDA
You should dowload it from htc site , at least is what i did then hardspl it to a 0000000 version like 1.48.0000000000000 or 43 what was that , then try an install the original os is should work at leas it worked for me
Hi guys,
I successfully flashed Android to my HD2 a few months back. I used what I believe is Cotulla's rom(?). However the other day my phone sorta died and whenever I plugged it into the charger it would vibrate go through the boot screen and reset at the "1234 go go go" stage. I read some reading on the forum and flashed it back to "RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship" from the HTC website, using the SD card. Windows mobile restored the phone and I started using it again.
I tried to put android back on it and I think I unsuccessfully tried to update the radio after which the phone sorta died again. So I thought ok, no problem, lets get back to windows again. So I installed the HTC rom again through the SD card, which the screen told me was successful. But now I can't get the phone to boot or go into bootloader or anything. When I plug the charger in, I get a vibrate and HTC bootscreen, with the red writing at the bottom left and then dead to only do this again and again. If i pull out the charger, the phone just dies. Battery charge was about 50% when it died.
Any ideas or help on how to resurrect my beloved HD2 would be greatly appreciated!
*quick update*
I stuck the phone in the fridge for a while and managed to get it into the bootloader just once and flashed the official winmo rom again, which was successful but still dead phone!
What made you decide to stick the phone in the fridge??
What is your SPL version??

Probably the dozens of threads that talk about successfully flashing only when the phone has been cooled.
@op it doesn't look good. Usually the fridge trick working implies hardware overheating issues.
Just confirm please, its not a tmous right?
Samsamuel is right, i just read about it and thought hey, why not! plus it got a priceless look from the mrs! lol
It's definitely not TMOUS, its UK Virgin and the SPL was 3.03.0000 if I recall correctly.
When I cool it, I can get it into bootloader, but only once.
well, i still suspect its hardware and unfixable, but there have been cases where for whatever reason a rom suddenly seems to fix it. Try all the versions of the correct stock Rom.
Try the 1.43 the 1,66 and again the 3.14, wwe ones, chilling the phone well before each flash, a good 20 mins.
