So I followed the simple steps of unlocking my phone then installing VetVito's Aero Windows Mobile (6.1.1) OS but did not install the radio 3.27 and now am stuck on the HTC splash screen. I've tried soft and hard resets with nothing to come out of it and at this point I cannot get into the OS to install a new OS, install the radio or do anything by this point. What are my options or at this point is the phone bricked? Thanks in advance.

hold cam+power and hit the reset button to enter your bootloader. Flash the 3.27 rom and thank me later

I thank you very much good sir, I was about to crap myself but NOW the phone keeps turning on then immediately keeps restarting. I read that it might be a problem with the SD card so I took that out with no resolution as soon as it turns on it pretty much immediately restarts, any idea's? BTW i have tried once again hard and soft resets with no help to come out of it. Thanks again Bimmerdood.
yah, I'm stuck with you in the same spot. I somehow screwed up installing 3.27 radio. It got stuck at the splash screen. So I did a format, and found a 3.16 .nbh file. Since everyone releases the installs as complete executables, grabbing a .nbh file is a pain.
Found one, got it to load past the splash screen but the thing resets immediately. I get about 1 to 20 seconds before the reset occurs. Annoying the crap out of me. Looking for another nbh file to try and hope it works.

I posted this in the Titan forum by mistake. Sorry for the duplication
I need some help...I'm freaking out...
I cooked a ROM with dcd's version 1.6.9 for BELL a few days ago and it was wonderful and worked great.
Today, I tried to upgrade to version 1.6.10 and I f___ed something up.
It starts the htc boot up screen as usual, then the Bell screen comes up as usual, then a Sprint screen comes up briefly and then the Windows Mobile screen comes on and HANGS........
I have tried cold reboots, and nothing. I cant connect to it with USB.
I can kick myself for making an error because I was rushing......
Can anyone please help............................

Try the hard reset.
If that doesn't work then try the bootloader mode and reflash it.
Hard reset
Hard reset did not help, it hangs on windows mobile screen.
Can u give me a bit more detail on how to get into the bootloader mode?
I figured it out. You have to but it into bootloader mode by pressing the POWER and CAMERA buttons at the same time and then reboot.
Then load ROM as usual'
Thankyou
You are the fing master. OMG mine was in the EXACT situation and i was freaking out. its currently reloading the ROM back on. Thank you soooooo much.
it probably happenned because modules overlapped, run g'reloc before building to avoid this.
HELP PLEASE
I tried to do DCD's upgrade method to get me GPS and what not, and I got stuck at #3
1. Copy down your infromation from PST (more below)
2. Update your Hard-SPL to 2.40-olipro
3. Flash new ROM
4. Flash new Radio
5. Reprogram PST settings from earlier if necessary.

THEN when it was restarting it froze at the sprint splash. so i reset, and still it froze. I tried doing a hard reset and I tried the power+camera+reset combo with the stylus in
ahhhhh! please please any help is appreciated
TIA
Power+Camera then SoftReset, Just press the reset button while the power and camera are both pressed down and let them go and then the boot loader should show up
ahghhh! okay i did that and got the lovely bootloader
i hate to be retarded sounding but what next?
THANKS for your help its greatly appreciated!
OKay i tried to continue but now it says NO RADIO under the sprint logo! ahh its getting worse?
edit: of course now i can still get into the bootloader though, so what to dooo
if its of any help the bootloader says:
TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.40 Olipro
CPLD 9
u said u loaded the radio in there right, well if so go head and load the dcd rom in there now, if u dont have either go do the radio, then it will restart then freezes again if that happens do the power, camera and reset button thing and load the dcd rom then after that it will load fine
No radio means no radio. Install the full blown 3.16 to get it all, then install DCD's rom if you want.
heres a small idea. it might just work.

Don't be an effing jerk... Posts like are a waste of space* and should be considered "clutter"
At any rate... I myself had this same issue so I just tell you what I did. As you have already done, when it freezes on the splash screen, enter the bootloader. I had an issue where my pc didnt recognize my device anymore, but I was able to find an app (here on xda) that stopped Activesync. Once I did that I was able to flash a diffrent rom and start over (I used dcd's 1.6.10 Sprint)
When starting over go very slow making sure not to overlook any step. Start with http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=16806 flash it
Then flash dcd's 2.0 beta.
I'm going to be honest, between being stuck in bootloader, frozen splash screen, reading an ungodly amount of useless posts* and listening to my girlfriend tell me to "Marry the effin phone" the whole thing took me about 10 hours. So if this helps great, let me know
Load radio and os rom from micro sd!
Ok, for all sprint users that are stuck because you loaded a cooked rom without loading the correct radio first. Or you have some how overwritten the radio rom, dont ask me how I did it but i did.
Here it the fix!
I was running the 2.40 Olipro boot loader when I preformed these steps. I do not know if they will work with other boot loaders.
download the Official 3.25 rom from HTC. ftp://Mogulrom:[email protected]_RS_TITAN_3.35.04_4350H_SPCS_AM_Ship.exe
Use winrar to unpackages it.
Format a microsd card as FAT32.
Copy Special_4350.nbh, and RUU_signed.nbh from the unpackaged 3.25 rom to the freshly FAT32 formated microsd. Rename "Special_4350.nbh" to "TITA100.nhb. Rename "RUU_signed.nbh" to "TITAIMG.nbh". Inset the microsd. Put device in bootloader mode, press and hold both power, and camera then softreset while holding the buttons. Follow on screen instruction from boot loader mode.
Hope this helps...
So was following directions to upgrade to nuerom, and i accidently installed the old bootloader 1.2 (olipro), and so i then upgraded the ROM afterwards to the nuerom.
Well now my phone turns on and goes to the HTC screen but just sits there and does nothing.
Hard and soft reset don't change anything...what can i do?!
run the re-locker and then the 2.4 bootloader
you can find them both here

put it in bootloader mode first...hold down "Power Button" + "Camera Button" & press the "Reset Button" with stylus, and then try it...plus u dont have to be connected w/ activesync
no active sync
If you cant connect to active sync, open active sync on home pc go to conections and uncheck usb connection that helped me last night

*please be cautious i'm new but i know my stuff*
your going to have to format the micoSD card to FAT32 with a MicroSD card reader or some type of MicroSD to SD converter(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicroSD)
(goto my computer/ right click the drive it was assigned to and click format... then under "file system" click on FAT32 then click format)
Download the rom update from HTC
Open the exe in WinRAR (rarlabs.com)
Find RUU_signed.nbh (it will be the biggest file)
extract it onto your desktop and rename it to TITAIMG.nbh
Move the file over to the formatted card and then insert it into phone.
Hold down "Power Button" + "Camera Button" & press the "Reset Button" with stylus
and done your phone should reconfigure back to how it would be "Virgin"

Trying to flash from sd card Still in loading mode help
It is in loading mode for a half in hour is that normal
i have never used the sd card...bit i believe its gotta write about 50+mb of stuff to ur fone...it takes about 10 mins over usb2.0 (it doesnt really go to that speed) so i guess it can take that long
please post how long it took if it goes successful for others to know...thanks

I ran the relocker, but it still says SPL-1.20.Olipro... I don't know why it didn't relock... what should I do, the SD option didn't seem to work either...

i got it fixed...basically what you have to do is go into the bootloader like everyone said and then i reflashed it with the original rom...after that i learned that you have to run the radio in order to boot
it take 5-10 min its really fast... try it again or grab a different ROM
SD card Flashing wont work.
I Really Am stuck. Flashing did not seem to work left it in the downloading for over an hour, then gave up. (I was trying to update to DCD Titan 2.1.0, From Sprint 2.17.651.0, Radio Version 1.47.01 ORIGINALY gave me problem Stuck in htc black screen)
I wont connect activesync, or usb peroid, so I formatted SDcard to FAT32, put the Sprint 2.17.651.0.nbh file into the card renamed it TITAIMG.nbh, and tried to flash. (Loading screen for over an hour, then gave up)
Some else said somthing about flashin 3.16 because of radio issues.
(from going 2.17, to DCD 2.1.0) but I cant find 3.16.nbh. if anyone could Link me to it that would be cool.

When you go into bootloader mode (power/camera/reset), what bootloader version is displayed on the screen? When you upgraded to the DCD ROM, did you also flash the new radio?
Can I add my dilemma to this thread? My Mogul also won't boot up. It gets to the yellow Sprint logo screen and then just shuts right back off.
I also, hard reset and that doesn't help. I can get to the bootloader screen but trying the Relocker means it wants my phone connected via Activesync (it calls for that in the DOS window that pops up), Activesync doesn't recognize the connection since the phone is in BL mode. Nothing I've tried so far has worked and some people on howardforums have tried to help and said I needed to install the radio only first and then go from there but I have had some trouble finding the original Radio as a download by itself.
Any takers on how I might be able to get this bad boy up and running again?
PS. I've also tried to install the original ROM found on the official HTC website and that didn't work either.
I appreicate if anyone can help both of us (the guy who posted the thread, too) out.
try extracting the relocker and then flash it.
Thanks guys this thread really helped me

If this is directed towards me, I extracted the relocker but I don't know what you mean by "flash it"
I thought flashing the ROM meant reinstalling a previous version or something. I've already tried running the relocker but like I said it requires an activesync connection but that doesn't work since I can only access R/G/B mode.
All the files inside the relocker are gibberish to me. Don't know what any of those things do separately.

If you are in bootloader, try flashing the "unofficial leaked" ROM. NOT one of the custom ROMs based on it, but the complete leaked package; it includes compatible bootloader, radio, and ROM, and should get you back up and running. You should then be able to run the old relocker and the old official radio and ROM package if that is what you are trying to do.

I appologize in advance if there is a lot of information about this but I have searched and searched and haven't found anything as of yet. I have the Verizon Touch Pro with the newest V2 stock ROM from several months back. Now I am interested and going back to a custom ROM. I have tried the latest HardSPL (I think it was 0.35) and when I run it I get "Loading..." on the TP and eventually "ERROR [260] : CONNECTION". If I pull the battery and put it back in it boots up to the way it was so clearly nothing is getting programmed. I have tried it on 3 computers and get the same thing. I had programmed it many times in the past successfully but that was before I upgraded to the V2 stock ROM. I'm wondering, is it that upgrade that is causing the problem? I have not tried via SD card yet but I plan to at some point today.
Thanks,
Tbone
Ok, I put the Verion HardSPL on my SDCard root and renamed it RAPHIMG.nbh. I forced the phone to the tri-color screen by holding power and volume down and then pressing soft reset. It flashed the tri-color and then went immediately to "Loading..." and has been there for 10 minutes. I do remember that when I did this previously it would ask if I wanted it to load the ROM and that is not happening. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tbone
Ha, I got it. I put the ROM on the SDCard and then copied over VZW_TP_SSPL-Manual.exe and ran that on the TP. It initially showed "Loading..." and then quickly changed to "Checking..." followed by the option to load the rom on the SD card. Not sure if this is the only way to do it once you have installed the V2 ROM but it seemed to work at least with HardSPL. Interestingly, I then put the custom ROM on the SDCard and re-ran the SSPL and this time it went to "Loading..." and stayed there. So I reset and forced the boot in to the Tri-Color screen and this time it got past the "Loading..." screen without a problem. I'm definitely a bit puzzled over this but I'm now up and running with a custom ROM again.
Hopefully this might be helpful to others.

Hey all, I am having trouble booting anything onto my HD2 everytime i boot the phone i get stuck on the (tri colour screen) "Hardspl" i think..
I am able to install original HTC roms and custom roms via USB and Serial but after i install them and it says installation complete when the phone restarts it just gets stuck on the "Hardspl" screen again??
Any help is appreciated thanks
Here are some images to help
http://img29.imageshack.us/g/dsc0007riq.jpg/
(UPDATED)
How do i remove hspl ive tried installing an offical rom from the SD card but i still boot into this screen ????
Try this........
Power off the phone (make sure your battery is over 50%)
Turn on while holding the vol. down button.
You should be at bootloader (three colour screen)
If you have HSPL installed you should see "cotulla" and "HSPL" on the bootloader somewhere.
If youve been flashing official roms though this may have uninstalled HSPL.
I couldnt get the screenshots you linked to...
You can attach image files using the "manage attachments" button down under the text entry area.. (i think)
Id suggest trying to flash a stock/official rom just now until you get up and running.
With the phone at bootloader you should see the word "serial" at the bottom of the screen....
Connect via USB and wait for "serial" to change to "USB", this could take a few minutes.......
When you see "usb" flash the ROM from your pc......
You should make sure that you have the correct ROM for your phone, go to the HTC site and pump in your serial number.
If you still have problems after this then post back here with any error messages you might get...
Hope that helps.....
Thanks for the reply, for the link you need to add (http ://) sorry i should have mentioned that
but i just finished doing what you told be and it finished installing. it had the HTC logo on phone with loading bar as on PC screen no errors :S but im still stuck on the tri colour screen
I originally had android booted onto this mobile but the 3G was not working so i tried installing the HTC wm 6.5 rom that I downloaded from the HTC website but it would not get out of the tri colour screen after i installed it.
So i though it may have been the hardspl its self so i updated the SLP from 2.05 to the 3.03 one im currently on but it does the same thing
Hmm ok...
So the flash finished all the wasy to 100% and there were no error messages..
then the phone rebooted and went to bootloader (3 colours)...??
Restarting the phone just keeps returning you to bootloader??
Try turning off then back on while holding down both volume buttons and see what happens.
Which model of HD2 do you have and which ROM did you flash??
Yes thats correct.
When i turn the device on wile holding vol up-down i get a grey screen to
"This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. press vol up to restore or press any other keys to cancel"
and im not sure what HTC HD2 i have..
Model: T8585 ?
I flashed the latest rom from the HTC website using the S/N
"RUU_Leo_S_HKCSL_WWE_3.14.831.3_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship"
Okay, get to that screen and press volume up to continue, this will perform a hard reset which is recommended after a flash, your device should then boot up, may take a few minutes as its the first time..........
ok, It finished in like less then 10sec but there was not skips did from 1% - 100% smoothly and says "Restore....Completed Press VolUp to boot"
So i pressed volume up and once again stuck on the tri colour screen
any more suggestions or is my phone dead?
Hmmm
Phones not bricked because 95% of the time if you can get to bootloader the problem can be fixed........
I have the feeling this is something obvious that Im not picking up on.
Chances are someone else will see this and point out the obvious but at the minute I cant think why it might be doing that......
You could try flashing the ROM from SD card.
Rename the file on your PC to "leoimg.nbh" and put it on a 2gb/4gb sd card, turn the phone off, put the card in, turn on and it should flash........
Like I said, i dont think your phone is dead, I think Im missing something obvious....
its weird because i can install roms, hardspl's and all that stuff it knows the phone is there and installs them but for some reason it never gets passes the hardspl stage.. on each boot.
it accually boots into the tri colour screen in a split second of turning the phone on
Its a longshot but is there any possibility that your volume down button is stuck in the pressed position.........
yeah i have installed off the SD card already. that took awhile but it says everything is ok and installsion has completed.
same problem though once i restart tri-coloured screen pops up.
Im afraid Im not sure about this one...........
I'll keep thinking and let you know if anything occurs to me.....
Im sure someone else will chip in at some point and point out the issue though.
alright no worries thanks for the help and time hopefully someone knows what the problem is.
Maybe if i uninstall the Hardspl? might totally wreck it and 100% brick my phone if it fails but I think its the only option ill have left soon
uninstalling hspl shouldnt cause any harm........
I didnt realise you had HSPL installed, I take it you instaled that after flashing the stock rom??
If you have HSPL installed......
Try to install a custom rom, ie an energy rom, just as an experiment........
dunno if youve seen the images yet conan, but unless its changed since, the OP has 3.03.0000
also, if he has magldr installed ( i didnt see it mentioned, but..) when you hard reset it takes just a few seconds, because it is only hard resetting magldr (at least thats my understanding, and would offer a reason why hard reset is so quick)
I suspect incorrect 3,14 flash, which didnt complete so its returning to bootloader,
so, OP, bootloader - hspl4 - 3.03.hspl - flash your 3.13 rom again, over usb.
ok thanks ill try that right now, also yes magldr was installed for android but i thought I got rid of it once i rebooted the offical HTC rom.
If this works im donating $20 to you right away no joke .. ive been trying to fix for 13hours straight

sd card flash, right?
Step 1 of the flash is the spl gets overwritten by the one in the leoing.nbh rom (3.03.0000 in this case) and then the phone reboots, and starts to flash , , splashscreen (where magldr is), radio, rom.
BUT, the phone wont allow the flash to start because hspl is now gone, so it fails CID checks and stops, so doesn't remove magldr, radio, rom, nothing, it just stops. Further attempts at flashing fail because you teh user haven't notived the spl change, you assume the whole flash failed, and that hspl is still there.
You shouldnt be able to get that far normaly, it would fail before it even starts, on a stock spl, except that hspl was there, so the flash was allowed to begin.
Ok, so its on SPL-3.03.HSPL now then I installed the latest HTC offical rom with USB but still no go
also if it is resetting magldr how come it doesent load up like it used to after a reset
