PLease can anyone let me know the process to load a rom onto a HD2 that will not boot up....? Windows mobile device center will not detect it either. Bootlogger screen says I have SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE, and underneath it says CotullaHSPL if that is any help. I would really appreciate any help!

After task 29 you have to flash a ROM. Task 29 wipes your device so if you don't hold down the volume down key at the end of task 29 it will not have any operating system. Just remove the battery and hold down the volume down key till you see the bootloader screen. Then flash your ROM and all is ok.
after task29,when your device reboot
press botton "volume down" and will go in bootloader mode
now if you have your device stuck in white screen,remove battery cover
press red botton for softrest and press "Volume down" botton

It won't because you're in the bootloader. Does it say USB at the bottom of the bootloader screen? As long as it says USB when the phone is plugged into your computer, flash a ROM and be happy
Hello!
And what if my hd2 not entering into the boot loader?
Thanx in advance
There is only one way to get into the bootloader.
Hold down volume and keep it down....
After that press the start button and your phone will boot up.
Now you will see the tree colored screen and you're in the bootloader.
Goodluck.

When you are in the bootloader screen, connect the phone to the computer /with the usb cable/ on the same bootloader screen it will change to USB - look at the bottom of the screen:
Open the folder - on your computer - where the ROM you want to flash is:
find the "RomUpdate*.exe" or "Install.exe" /if Android it will most likely say "DAF.exe" - run it as Administrator/ file and run it. Do as it says on the screen.
Do not disconnect the cable, do not touch the device. When it is finnished it will restart the device, disconnect the cable and enjoy your new OS.

use a <4gb or preferably <2gb sd card - class 4 or 2 with LEOIMG.nbh.
HSPL3_pkg after that - make sure .nbh (as above on sd root) is your stock and you CLEAN-reinstall bootloader.
ps:
Then hspl, then radio, then magldr, then windows 7, the hacks, then call M$= LIVE!
Hi guys i have a similar problem. After task 29 i went into the bootloader but can't install any rom whatsoever. I have SPL 3.03 on my devide, mind no not hard spl but SPL. Can anyone please help me solve this issue? I also tried to flash using sd card but it doesn't work. Please help me save my hd2. Thanks in advance.
tmo-hd2 wont go into bootloader after task29
Hi guys, i am facing exact same thing which dannytgt faced (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...count=1)...but with no luck what so ever.....was running a stock rom in my hd2 3.14....wanted to try wp7 and did a task29....after that...hd2 doesnt go into bootloader screen....tried all possible combinations with/without sd,sim, holding vol down, vol up, both with power tapped...power holded etc etc...hd2 always goes into stick together screen and doesnt progress as there is os to load....opened up the mobile and tried with a pin to push the vol down switch directly also....all hardware keys were working gr8 (including vol down and up and power keys) whn win 6.5/android was running.
i know for the fact that this is reversable....if only my hd2 can get to bootloader...i will hv os running in a jiffy....
any ideas ppl? my hd2 is 3 months old ...no warrenty cos i bought it in US and using it in india..
bootloader dont load
some more details...tried to task29 (doloop) with 100% success and then my tmo hd2 wont go into bootscreen what ever i do...its stuck for ever in "stick together"...i know there is no os to load...but i dont understand y cant my hd2 go intobootloader
so far i tried
with holding volume down and power key with a single tap
with holding volume down and holding power key
with holding volume down, volume up and power key with a single tap
with holding volume down and reset button
with/without sim
with/without SD
with/without plug in wall charger
with/without plug to pc via usb cable
observations...when i pull out the battery and put it back in and then connect to computer when the phone is still off....the charging indicator LED glows in orange.
when in this mode if i switch the phone on with power/end key....it doent start...i have to pull the usb out, the orange LED still glows...and if i tap the power/end key nothing happenes...i have to pullout the battery to get it to start and eventually get stuck in "stick together"..

Isn't it ironic: Stick together!...
There is a guide on How to get back from WP7 here on the forum.
First i would sugest to reformat the card from WP7 bul...
If i understand correctly, you can't get into bootloader or magldr!?
So you can't do nothing?
You can try this sollution and if it doesn't work, go to the service center to reset it totaly.
There was a guy with the same problem here:

Try, taking out the battery for 10 seconds or so then put it in while holding the volume down key and powering up.
Got stock ROM back in first time but kiss goodbye to the data on your SD card. I had to use a Canon camera to reformat the card to get back the 14GB it was hiding.
This WORKED. Thanks a TON splinters69.
For future uses, this is what I did.
1. Took out the battery for about 30 seconds.
2. Put one of the LEOIMG.NBH on storage card
3. After putting the battery held the volume down button and pressed power button.
4. It went into HSPL mode straight away and started loading the win 6.5 OS.
You saved the day Splinters69. Thanks to Clydeb1 too for that modelIDcheckbypass.

Man, did you say blackstone? You should go into Blackstone forum
To go into bootloader, turn off the phone. Press volume down button and the POWER ON button (not start button) at the same time until the screen appear. It works on both Leo and Black Stone
Goodluck
I'm trying to load the Unofficial 2.2 ROM onto my phone and I'm using the Odin method. I got into Download mode, got the pit and the ROM and put it all in place, the process starts but it just keeps getting stuck at "Do not turn off the Target." Now if I restart it, it won't even go into my phone.
Any suggestions why it keeps stopping at that point?

My advice is to repost this question in the Q and A section and then edit your OP, to indicate you've done as much... Add a link in THIS OP to your Q and A thread. You should get some help after that i'm sure.
does you phone just sit at a black screen? mine did the same thing black screen to where i doesnt look like its on but if you turn the lights off in the room your in you will see the screen is actually lit! no idea on how to fix this myself... on mine if you press and hold the vol up, vol down, and power buttons for a while, (until your fingers hurt) you will eventually see a black screen with red writing with some stuff i was unable to understand! but thats all i could get out of the phone... called t-mobile and they sent a replacement... but i would like to know what i did wrong because i will be flashing froyo alot and i dont want to run into this problem again... btw can get odin to recognize the phone at all!
If your phone is not Hardkey locked.
1) Remove battery from phone and put it back in again
2) Plug your USB into your computer (and make sure it is not in your phone yet)
3) Push and hold down your two volume keys (DO NOT HOLD DOWN THE POWER BUTTON)
4) Plug in the USB cable into your phone
This takes me into Download every time. I did what you did. I had problem with Odin my phone and it just got stuck. I unplugged the phone and rebooted it. Or I should say I tried. It was dead to the world. Black screen. Power button did not start etc. Ran into a note from Kazer and he suggested the above procedure and it worked every time for me. Holding down the power button did not work for me.
Try it out and let me know if it worked.
i just flashed simply honey 3.8 via odin, i did back to stock before via odin (came from cm7) but after flashed simply honey, my phone stucked at rainbow screen sayin partition partition stupid partition, so i read that to get rid that rainbow i should flash gb bootloader, then i flashed the bootloader via odin, yeah the rainbow has gone but my phone keeps bootloping in vibrant and bullet screen then sayin partition2 bla bla, i can't get to odin with 2 button combo, it's just go to charging wtf, i can't even get to cwm via 3 buttons combo, help me guys, thx in advance
Have you tried
1. Start Odin
2. Plug USB cable into pc
3. Power off the Phone.
3. Pull the Battery.
5. Plug USB cable into Phone.
6. Press and Hold: Volume UP + Volume DOWN + Power, all at the same time.
7. Re-insert the battery.
8. The phone will power now, when the screen starts a cycle of going to a BLACK screen, release ONLY the POWER button.
9. When you see the download icon release the volume buttons,
10. Odin back to stock by putting the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.
Just checking, did you take out your battery, unplugged the usb, put the battery back in, then held vol up, vol down, and power and released all three as soon as you saw the Vibrant logo?
and if that doesnt work try all the steps above but minus one step! hold down both volume buttons except power and see if that works!

It's not bricked, I know you're mad and frustrated, trust me, I've been there a million times!
Lets try taking out the battery and leave it out for 15 minutes. Reboot your computer and unplug every usb.
Then try the above steps again.

If you flashed the bootloaders then the mapping is different. Try power button and volume up without the usb plugged and with the battery in. That should get you in download mode.

You are not bricked. I just had the same thing happen flashing the light version with Rom Manager. Since you flashed the Bootloaders, the key combination has changed. Hold down the volume up and power key. Release when you see the vibrant logo-that should take you into red recovery. When there, go to voodoo, choose disable. It will tell you it is 'actually enable' and will be disabled next boot. So reboot and let it do its thing. When I did it the Android in space finally showed up.
EDIT: I'm pretty sure you don't need to go into download mode to reflash with odin, just disable the lagfix. If it doesn't boot into the Android, then volume down+power will take you into download and reflash after the lagfix is finished disabling.
EDIT 2: And with the Gingerbread bootloader, you can't go into download mode if plugged in anymore. It will not go past the charger like on the Froyo Bootloaders.
EDIT 3: Sorry got the key mapping backwards, lol here it is straight from the Bootloaders site.
Gingerbread Bootloaders - No Rainbow - Fully visible Recovery on all ROMs
Benefits - No more rainbows on Gingerbread 2.3 ROMs like Simply Honey GB, LiDroid, Asgard, etc.
Convenient Key Maps for entering Recovery and Download Modes. (I personally like these mappings over the Standard Vibrant Mapping as you can enter download mode directly without needing to turn off phone or remove battery etc...)
For Recovery - Lower Volume Key + Power Button
For Download - Upper Volume Key + Power Button

I'm impressed with your risk taking capabilities man... Dont know how old you are to Android, and I'm not commenting on that, but from what I see, you are just 15 posts old, and you managed to flash Bootloaders to your phone...
Do read the OP for possible solutions before you flash anything... That said, till you have a screen, its not a brick.
Flash the bootloaders, using the new key mapping, and then flash the ROM, you should be good to go !!!
maybe one of you guys can help me here
i have the rainbow screen and i cannot get computer to recognize phone. i have to get into download mode with a dongle and odin still does not recognize my phone. i cannot boot into recover as the screen is completely rainbowed out and I cannot see what I am doing.
Are there any suggestions on what to do from here?
Thank you
Hey guys,
Just a small advice for those who didn't know.
If you want to flash another rom and you got a "battery low" in bootloader/ fastboot AP, don't be panic: make sure you've booted your device in fastboot mode. Then just press the power button shortly and the device will shut down completely. Now you can charge your device without any factory cable. You will also get the loading Stats displayed.
This works on bootloader version 0A.72 onwards

New Method?
spc_hicks09 From DroirRzr.com posted this. I'm trying it now, Will let you know how it goes.
Press and hold power and volume down until the screen flickers, release those buttons and quickly press all three side buttons (power, vol up and vol down). When the bootloader menu pops up, plug in the charger. Use the volume down button to scroll to the SBF option and use volume up to select it. Now press and hold the power button for about 3 seconds then release. This will automatically put your phone in the "powered down/charging" mode. Wait till the battery charges all the way then complete a fastboot. I just did this 3 days ago so I know it works.

A collegue thought it would be interesting to see what the wipe data command on Exchange would do to my phone.
It appears to have bricked it.
The phone boots, shows the THL logo for a few seconds then shows a dark grey screen.
Is this phone recoverable.
I am a complete noob, first post, so if it is recoverable I'm going to need real step by step basic instructions.
Hope there is somebody who can help.
Thanks.

A hard reset could save your life..
Press and hold the volume (-) button and then press the power button for about 3 seconds, release the volume (-) button when the screen comes and wait for repair menu. It's written in Chinese. Go to the part which is writing MMC at the end with the volume (-) button and press the power button. You are now in the hard reset menu, press the power button again and wait until the phone opens. That's all. You will lose all your programs which you installed before if you didn't back up before but the phone will work. I saved my W200S yesterday with same solution.
Thanks for your advice. I noticed the Chinese menu but I avoided it every time being afraid of not ruining something . Anyway, these days I've found out how to flash new ROMs so I am fooling around with trying different ROMs, I got allowance from my wife for this ). I am trying to fix an issue of the stock ROM, the proximity sensor doesn't light up the display when taking away from ear. The phone was not rooted so any attempt to enter engineering mode failed. Yesterday I discovered a MIUI ROM which looks very stylish and it solved the proximity sensor and even added the notification LED option (this was not included in the stock ROM). Now I have to test the battery life.
