Hello all!
I am in desperate need of some help from you all, and the great rom chefs here.
What exactly happened:
From past 2-3 roms (pandora 1.0, 1.1, PDAVIET-v6,v7) i have been having regular MANILA freezes. it would freeze within 12 hours of flashing, and in the last 2 flashes, it froze within 1 hour, without me installing anything.
Titanium worked fine. untill that started hanging too.
So i tried reflashing the 1.6 official rom, thinking that might clear up some bugs as its the official rom.
while trying to flash it (from my sd card directly) it gave up an error - Invalid DEVICE.
I restarted and went into bootloader again, and then i started getting this error :
UPGRADE ROM CODE ERROR
PLEASE TRY AGAIN
Now i have tried reflashing from the computer, and also from the sd card directly, 1.6 official , pandora 1.1, pdaviet v7, but to no success.
All the time it still gets stuck on that screen.
I have tried hspl'ing it again, it was successful - the hspl procedure, but then still no rom loads onto it.
Even tried using the sspl, but still nothing happens. With SSPL, it shows flashing as 0%, and stays there forever!
PLEASE HELP guys!
in a real bad situation!
Thanks!
so what is the device status currently?
can u boot into a main manilla or titanium screen?
Can you get to bootloader? Were you flahsing ROMs using SSPL or HSPL?
hi..
i dont know if this might work, try to get stock rom, xxx.exe, rename xxx.exe to xxx.rar and unpack it. you should see RUU_signed.nbh and rename to leoimg.nbh. put leoimg.nbh in the root of your sd card. and flash use vol down+power button.
oh, there was a mistake!
When you firstly flashed your device with 1.6 official from sd card, this removed hspl and the device checked your rom's region id. I guess you have used offical roms from other areas. So the process stopped when the device checked the cid.
At this stage, you should find out the offical rom from your area, and re-flash it from sd card, then everything will be fine.
But you didn't, you tried re-hspl and sspl...and i don't know what the consequence will be.
So? Did you get it fixed mate?
Any update? if you haven't fixed it yet PM me.
If it is de wrong region rom you tried to flash do you might need to flash it with a goldcard?
hope you got it sorted
Just flash your original rom using htc ruu will do. been there, done that
yeah flash the 142 or 148 rom that is appropriate for your device.. and use teh exe/ruu that came with it rather than sdcard.
what's the betting you needed the goldcard to flash 161? which is why you're having issues trying to reflash it ?
HSPL
Hi,
You could try this,
1) flash HSPL first.
2) flash the stockrom one more time from storage card.
This will erase hardspl so if you want to flash custom roms again you need to flash HSPL one more time after you flashed the stockrom.
Succes,
Leo
I have the same problem and I need the official 1.42 rom... do u know where I can find it?

Your Leo was probably locked on your operator
at this point You've got to flash HTC official ROM with a Golcard.
Or your operator's rom directly from bootloader.
yep. I'm actually trying to get a gold card...
I've tried to create a gold card and hard reset but the setup fail

Did you try flashing thru boatloader official Rom (from your region) ?
I tried to install the latest HTC official rom but the setup stops at 9%
"Error [290]: invalid command"
It seems a problem of Radio... not rom...

You have to flash 1.43 of your Region thru boatloader. If boatloader does not work thru goldcard.
I tried with italian 1.43 official rom also but the setup keeps stopping... Tried also using a goldcard, created using qmat
Hi,
After months and months of installing custom ROMs, and I even ran Android for few months, I need to take it to service (I broke the screen).
I have tried (not successfully) to install SPL on it using HSPL3 (info got from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477). After I have opened HSPL3 and clicked first "Next" button, few seconds later it has generated an error. The phone remained in the 4 color screen showing me the HSPL version I have (SPL-1.42.HSPL XE). From here nothing works (hard reset doesn work, it takes to same screen).
PLEASE help. Nothing I read helped. Phone is unusable now.
Thank you in advance.
PS: I admit I am doing something wrong (since I can not fix it any more)...
[LE: I have copied "RUU_signed.nbh" renamed it, opened Bootloader and I was able to install SPL-1.42.0000. But now I am still stuck in same 4 color screen in the beginning... Hard Reset nor Soft reset do not work.]
Try to star in bootloader mode (vol down + power button), connect usb cable and install HSPL 2.08:

Install stock rom from sd card:
Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button.
One more info your sd card has to be a normal one (1G or 2G) not HC
and after that reinstall hspl let me know if it was working
Regards,
Me

I remember someone here few months back also accidentally flashed SPL which give similar error (Stuck at OSPL which you cant flash HSPL due to unsupported version. Means you are stuck with SPL which was not intended for your region/product code). If im not mistaken, you may need to try and flash various version of stock roms with different bundled SPLs (steps to lower version). Meaning, the goal is to slowly step down towards the supported SPL version so that you can flash HSPL and then finally use the right Stock ROM to get your original (out of the box) SPL.
Anyone, please correct me if im wrong. Good luck mate.

Yep, it seems this is the problem.
Find the first of the stock roms for the country the phone is locked to and flash it.
But try to flash the complete rom and not only the radio.
Try this older rom:
Code:
http://www.htc.com/ro/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=804
Or this one:
http://www.4shared.com/file/236870807/d9482029/RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_166.html
Or go here and flash older radios:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787&highlight=serial
What you need to do is go to HTC's website, for your area, and try and download ROMs with your phone's serial number. This will ensure that you are only allowed to download a ROM that is allowed on your phone. If you get an invalid message, then you need to try another ROM.
You may have a operator locked phone - you can only flash a O2, Vodafone, T-Mobile, etc ROM.
More ROMS
Just in case you need it, here's an absolutely HUGE collection of original shipped ROMs for the Leo.

Thanks for your replies. However, I was able to fix it... by mistake.
After seeing that nothing works I connected the phone while it was showing that screen (4 colors) and I have flashed the stock ROM mentioned by me in previous posts using the flashing tool inside the package. Even if the main condition was to have it sync-ed, I have tried anyway and it worked (it is not sync-ed unless it boots up first).
Now it is functional again and ready for service.
Happy ending eventually.
thanks for link of roms btw how i now what rom is mine my phone is brand not from some network orange t mobile etc....

If you don't know from where your device is coming from, with witch operator it is brand; than you can contact HTC.
And share them your S/N thy will be able to communicate you to witch provider your device is branded.

Hey guys, I had this problem like three weeks ago, then got my phone working but this time it won't. What's happening is that when I boot on it just goes to a blank white screen. I have 2.08.HSPL etc. It usually works after a few battery pulls/soft resets but this time it isn't. I've tried running Task 29's, but they're stuck at 0%.
Everything I try do gets stuck at 0%. Well I've tried running a Stock RUU (RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.0 7U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe) and that got stuck at 0% too. I tried downloading my stock ROM off the HTC site but it says "Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device." Why isn't it? My phones not a TMO HD2? It's a EU Leo bought from o2 Ireland. Can anybody link me to possibly the UK o2 stock ROM?
I downloaded a stock ROM from here but all that comes with the English WWE version is a .exe and not a .nbh.
I also flashed Artemis' custom ROM from SD card and that flashed etc. but when I tried to boot I get the white screen.
Any help appreciated, thanks.

Sorry to hear your HD2 is not working right now Skellyyy. I am with T-Mobile so I am not familiar with O2 but do they not have an official ROM on their website? Do you have to download your official ROM from HTC? I tried to pull up the o2 website but for some reason it would not let me pull it up. I went to www.o2.co.uk/ and I got this error message.
Error 502 - Bad Request
The server could not resolve your request for uri: http://www.o2.co.uk/

The exe is how you run the update utility for that ROM too by the way. Well atleast it is if you are using a computer to flash it. You have to right click on it and click explore to find tbe RUU file.
Also seeing as you have the EU HD2 why not just download the official update from the T-Mobile website and try it?
Yeah no I don't think they do. I looked on there and they hadn't got it. I think TMO have it on there website is because there's is a different phone then to the EU one.
Wouldn't downloading that ROM sort of brick my phone? Or would it not as the EU is compatible with all radio's?
I know the way you run the .exe then the RUU pops up, but HSPL won't flash anything. I've already tried. I know flashing from the SD works as I've flashed an Artemis ROM from it... but still had the screen.

Good point I have not thought about that. The hole thing about the TMOUS HD2 not being able to flash non TMOUS Radios probably does have something to do with it being there on thier website. This is an effort to keep people from getting confused and downloading the wrong ROM and bricking their phone.

No I don't think just downloading the ROM will brick your HD2, you have to flash it for it to even have a chance to brick it ha ha ha ha..........Just kidding I know what you meant, and no I do not think it will brick your pbone cause you have the EU HD2. You might get some preinstalled T-Mobile apps that you can not use but I think this would be the only side effect. But then again I was thinking you could flash it and then try to reflash your regular ROM as I know that the T-Mobile ROM should fix any issue you are haveing with SPL or the ROM. So maybe then you can get HSPL to flash sucessfully.

I also know if you flash the T-Mobile ROM via SD card it overwrites all, but I think this is the case with any SD card flash of any official ROM. The Artemis ROM is a custom ROM so if you are haveings SPL incompatibility issues it would not fix this as it would take an official ROM flashed via SD to fix that.

stuck at 0% usually means hspl is no longer there.
what does it say by 'spl' in bootloader?
If you have tried to flash a stock rom from sd card at all, , hspl will have gone EVEN IF THE FLASH DIDNT APPEAR TO HAPPEN, hspl will still have gone.
Your phone, if from o2, will always only ever take o2 stock roms, unless hspl is there. HTC website will only let you download o2 roms with that serial.
The .exe file the rom comes as is really a zip file, , right click and 'unzip here or extract here', or rename the file from .exe to .zip, , the file ruu_signed.nbh is inside there.
Artemis probably failed because of your radio and/or spl. tell us what it says in spl, and what rom you want to aim for, and we can take it from there.

Yeah no, that happened me before and I was only had 2.08.0000 but I'm sure I have 2.08.HSPL now. As I've said, it's happened before, in which all I did was do a soft reset and that worked. Doesn't seem to work now though.
I'm pretty sure MAGLDR is wiped now anyway, as when I plug a USB in while off it doesn't boot up, but just goes to a red LED. Is this normal yeah?
Just tried flashing the ROM I mentioned... the little progress bar showed... then the phone rebooted. Now it's back to SPL.
I don't there's anything I can do now is there? :/
ok, hang on, do you have a tmous, or a regular hd2 from t mobile?
I have a EU Leo. I don't know where it's from as I bought it second hand. The guy said it was bought on o2 Ireland.
Hey SKellyyy not saying I don't beleive you but just do this to confirm you have a DU HD2. I know for positive I have a T-Mobile HD2 as I bought mine brand new from a T-Mobile store. On your HD2 touch Start/Settings/scroll down to About Phone/Hardware Information. This is what mine says.

Compare yours and let us know.
if the send key is white its regular, green its tmous. yours will be regular, from o2.which is why none of those roms you tried worked. only ONLY o2 roms will work unless hspl is there, anmd as soon as you flash any stock rom using sd card, it will remove hspl and then teh flash will fail, but hspl is already gone.
so, to get..
a winmo rom
bootloader - hspl4 - 2.08.hspl (3.03.hspl if you want a 3.14 rom) - bootloader - radio (if needed to update, see the rom thread) - bootloader - flash rom
to prep for nand android
bootloader - hspl4 - 2.08.hspl - bootloader - radio - bootloader - magldr - magldr usb flasher - flash CWM
bootloader -
Lol dude I'm pretty positive as it only has 512MB ROM and it has no T-mo on top and the buttons are white.
I've already tried to flash HSPL again but that was using the second version of the software (can't remember the name) and it failed. It recognized the phone and let me choose 2.08.HSPL but the progress bar just went and went (for over an hour).
Where will I get a stock o2 ROM as the HTC website says "this software isn't available for your device"?

thats more likely the comp, not the phone. all usual things, reinstall activesync/wmdc, dont use 64bit os if you can help it, firewalls off, etc etc etc. easiest first test is use a different pc.
It was fine flashing CWM on Friday. Currently can't use a different PC, will get one later and try again.
Thinking if I get this fixed, I'm selling it. Too much sh*t happens with it. It's maybe just my phone but this usually happens everyday and a few battery pulls/soft resets fixes it. That by itself is annoying, but this is even more annoying.
hspl is different than flashing roms / cwm.
flashing and sync will work through any old usb port, rarely need to turn off firewalls, whereas hspl is realllly choosy. gotta be a usb socket directly on the motherboard, hates 64bit win, times out before the phone has rebooted if you start it from winmo running, isnt all that happy if you have changed teh usb drivers for that particular port, say for mtty, or android, (each usb port has its own drivers associated with it, thats why swapping usb ports if it fails is always the first step, try them all)
I've tried three different PC's. Two desktops and one laptop, all plugged in to motherboard USB'a but none of them are installing HSPL. They're all just going up and down on the progress bar. Should I try HSPL4? I'm using the HSPL3 program.
No computers are running 64bit btw.
Is there anywhere I can just get the o2 ROM and try flash it?
Yea go to HTC website, support, pick phone, downloads, change dropdown to rom upgrades, operator name is in the title. You can also find them in the official roms thread in rom development section, and elsewhere in various threads.
Keep gour head up!

Sorry you are having so much trouble out of your HD2. The HD2 is a great device but they are quirky as hell. I sure you will get it fixed, keep your head up man. Oh and don't give up on the HD2 just yet cause just like King Authur's Excalibure, The HD2 is a thing of legend.
Excilcior
Yeah, I'm currently looking to get a new HD2. Decided.
It's just the bootloader doing my head in, found the official ROM I need, but it'll only flash from PC and it's stuck at 0%. I need it as a .nbh so I can install from SD card. Do you know how I can do that if the RUU I downloaded is a .exe?
If you got RUU in .exe file install WinRar right click on the RUU file and choose "open with WinRar" then extract the .nbh file

Do you have 1.28 HardSPL or stock 1.28?
You should probably flash HardSPL first
I have 1.28 HardSPL, not stock one. I reflash HardSPL tho but still nothing
I'm searching for a way to fix this.
Will keep you posted

Hi guys I really need help at this point,
I have an AT&T HTC One M8 originally I was on Skydragon rom rooted till I found out MM was finally available. I then relocked my phone and flashed original firmware to get back to origianal. I tried The OTA at that time but no luck. So I downloaded the MM ruu file from HTC.com and still no luck. I tried like 5 times and it would get stuck step 2 of 2 sending rom to phone... After a few times and calling htc still no luck. The rep said it would be ok to just disconnect and everything was fine I guess. Today I came across a thread here on xda in which a member mentioned flashing the MM firmware first then try the ruu again. The firmware updated but the ruu is still not working. Still stuck on step 2 of 2 sending rom to phone for almost 3 hours now... The biggest problem now is unlike the last times when I tried disconnecting this time my phone would not start. it just gets stuck on white HTC logo screen and that's it... so frustrating... so now I am without phone - please help!
it allowed me to try to run the ruu again but still stuck at the same spot and still wont startup.
someone anyone please help!
side not everyone mentioned memory possibly being the issue - well I checked and I have 21 gb of internal memory:crying: available so...
last thing: I also tried flashing back to stock ruu and now it wont let me after flashing the firmware so i have no idea what to do now.

Still stuck on step 2 of 2 sending rom to phone for almost 3 hours now... There is a connectivity issue, probably due to PC configuration. Win7 and USB2.0 have the best compatibility. If Win10, you can try to run the RUU in Win7 compatibility mode, and see if that helps. Try another USB port, try another cable. You may have to resort to another PC, if you have access to one.
side not everyone mentioned memory possibly being the issue - well I checked and I have 21 gb of internal memory:crying: available so... The free storage issue (need 14 GB free, maybe more) only applies to the OTA, from what I've seen. It doesn't apply to the RUU.
last thing: I also tried flashing back to stock ruu and now it wont let me after flashing the firmware so i have no idea what to do now. "Stock firmware" meaning what (exact filename)? I assume you mean Lollipop (LP) RUU as "stock" means different things to different folks - so you need to be specific. Once you've flashed the MM firmware, you can't run the LP RUU, unless you find and flash the LP firmware first. The firmware needs to match the RUU, in other words (thanks to some new requirement HTC added with the MM RUU). But seeing as the goal it to RUU to MM, I'd not mess with going backwards at this point, and focus on getting the MM RUU to work.

You really need to stop posting "no luck" without giving any details. I advised you on that earlier, and I don't like repeating myself. What does that mean "no luck"? Please give as much detail as possible. You didn't specify whether the firmware actually installed or not. How far did the firmware install get? What was the output on the screen? Any error messages? Did you flash the firmware twice (which is usually required)?
Its clear you have some general connectivity issue. Until you solve it, you can run RUUs forever, and they will still fail.
Did you try a different cable (as I previously advised)? Is the phone in fastboot mode when you try to RUU? Any response to command: fastboot devices

ok I apologize. The mm firmware did install correctly as far as I can tell. Then tied the mm ruu again but still hung at step 2/2 sending rom image. Only difference hat time s when I tried to disconnect I was stuck on white htc screen. I also tried new cable. and yes I did mostly everything in fastbot mode. fastboot seems to be working ok.
Could you boot a TWRP recovery img from fastboot and then use it to restore a NANDroid backup? This assumes you're still having problems.
