"Just wait, suddently it continue."
No, it doesnt. Error msg comes out and forces you to it.
SPL can not be easily downgrade by flashing ROM in a G4.
Same problem
I have same similar problem.
I created new topic. I guess my topic more explanatory.

NOW it is possible to downgrade SPL. Just flash HardSPL, after that you can DOWNGRADE SPL to any SPL you want!!!

When you first flashed HardSPL, which verson of the SPL was shown after reboot? That, what you had before, or the new one, of the HardSPL? I am asking, because I managed to keep the original O2 2.15 SPL and I really dont want to channge it (for repair reasons
After flashing the patched HardSPL I see 2.G4.4PDA (I have a G4 XDA Neo)! But the good news are that you now can flash all SPL versions you want, like the original 2.15 when it's inside of your ROM image and you can see it after rebooting!
How to use Hard SPL if a can't pass bootloader?
I tryed hard SPL, but after upgrading it back to 2.20.001., and I can't pass even to "Windows mobile" screen and it is frozen this position.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
i think we need a radio update or change it but i don't know how cuz i'm g4 and i think it's CID locked ( i appreciate if u tell me how to know locked or not) i updated the rom with soft spl but the radio i don't know what to do my radio now 02.25.11 and i'm having the cannot excute errors what to dooooo helppppp ?
..............................................
i just tried T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radinly and it doesn't start the progress telling me not for u something like that i don't remember
is there is radio official from imate k-jam ?
All of the radio ROMs are official. You just need to download and simply flash one. Since you have a G4, it cannot be CID unlocked, but you can and should apply HardSPL to it so that you can flash more easily than SoftSPL.

i'm already flashing with soft spl i don't know how to flash with hard spl and i'm afraid form it so is there is a way to flash the radio with soft spl for g4 ??????
No. You need to apply HardSPL first, its a simple process. It doesnt "flash" anything really, it just "updates" the Wizards IPL/SPL to a semi-unlocked version...you needint worry, its been tested and has worked for years.

ty for ur support i just didn't want to hard spl for the radio it's a little issue but i'm really gratefull for u thanX
i just hope if there is anything except the hard spl
Nope, without HardSPL it is not possible...why dont you want to HardSPL it anyways?
it's just i liked the soft spl cuz the temporery thing the hard spl u know semi permenant and in the remove hard spl post it doesn't have the imate k-jam spl and ipl so i'm worried a little i thought today about the hard spl and i'm still reading to get it all in my mind to flash any rom (g4 safe) ofcourse with completly fredom that's it by the way my radio 02.25.11 and i want it 2.07.10 my old one or the 2.19.11 this one i want it it's recommended by users i'm very thankfull for u by the way
Well let me ask you this then, are you worried about not being able to remove the HardSPL because of warranty concerns? If so than I understand, but if not, there is really no reason to remove HardSPL after you apply it.

naaaah there is no warranty now i just afraid cuz of returning to an official rom
u know sometimes the update process fails and i need to go back to my wizard love or an official imate k-jam rom and i think that's get hard spl complicated and makes some problems am i right or what??? plz notice me
No, HardSPL makes no difference in flashing the Wizard LOVE or carrier ROMs, it in fact makes it easier...no need to put the device in bootloader mode to do it. I am telling you, HardSPL will make your life much easier as far as the Wizard is concerned.

coool thx for ur help i'll sleep now and in like 8 hours i'll read about the hard spl to do it right thx for ur help alot
i wannted to mention that i think from reading that the soft spl and hard spl is the same but the soft spl every time i flash i have to use and i don't think that it is hard or boring so
tell me experts what will happen to my k-jam g4 if i did this
copy the nk.nbf from the RADIO rom and put it in the soft spl folder like we do in Regular Roms to flash it
the nk.nbf from the rom only has a gsm i checked no spl or ipl or extrom or os or splash nothin just gsm
so what will happen to my runing rom TNT 19209 pro
i wanna know if it will addition the gsm only or it will brick my Wizard
long story short, put HSPL 2.08 on my TMOUS HD2 so i could use chuckyrom (which did not work.it didnt download as an exe)...i.need.to.take.it.off. ive spent the past day researching how to do it. ive searched this site over, and tried everything, yet when at the bootloader it still says i have cotullaHSPL on it...i need it back to the original so i can send it in for repair. i did not make a copy of whatever file i needed. i have nothing but a phone with HSPL that needs to come off...any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks!
oops duplicate
depends what your original was.
If its a tmous phone, run hspl3 and choose 2.08.0000
if its a regular hd2, run hspl2 and choose 1.42.0000 or 1.66.0000
and of course the rom didnt download as an exe, ,, custom roms never do, they come as an .nbh file, and you put that in a folder with customruu.exe and run customruu.
thanks for the quick response...did what you said...used the HSPL3 download and installed SPL-2.08.0000 and it says the usual MicroP(LED) and such...not sure if that still voids the warranty as the original i had was 1.42 i believe...but it doesnt say HSPL or Coulleta so i should be fine eh? any final way to move it back to 1.42? or will 2.08 work?

if it was 1.42.0000 then you should use hspl2 and set it to 1.42.0000 else yes, they will know you've been messing. 2.08.0000 only ships with tmous phones, and the only way you could possibly get 2.08.0000 on your phone is by using hspl.
(HSPL3 is really for tmous customers, use hspl2 to return yours to stock)
downloaded HSPL2 and tried to downgrade from 2.08 back to 1.42...it just went to an error message saying bad device ID (or something like that) also just tried putting the RUU_signed.nbh on my sd card, renaming to LEOIMG.nbh and starting in bootloader...it goes to a white screen that says loading... and thats it...is it stuck? any other option?

what rom you trying to use? also, i think spl 2.x wont allow itself to be downgraded to 1.x this way (though im not 100% sure on that)
nope...its just a standard Tmobile USA HD2...i made the mistake of trying to hack it and put HSPL 2.08 on and need to return it but that voids warranty...so i need to take it off...right now its showing it has just spl 2.08 and the regular boot screen...no hard spl, just standard...will that be ok?

yes, 2,08.0000 will be fine.
awesome! thank you! the whole thing started when the first HD2 failed...so Tmo sent me another one...i managed to fix #1, and also killed and installed HSPL on the second one...so i would either have to remove it, or send my good one back and keep the broken one...my first one (thats working is showing it has spl 2.10 (my bad, i thought it was 1.42) so i only need to downgrade from 2.08, to 2.10...but if spl 2.08 wont void it and itll be fine, then im happy...thanks again!
here is the thing from the start.
a friend of mine bought a HD2 from hong-kong.
after installing a cab file for hebrew support the device wont go up.
hard reset to the device didnt help.
so i thought i should hspl the device and then flash the new nrg rom.
after i did hspl from version 1.66 i made a ROM FLASH BEFORE RADIO FLASH.
anyways the NRG system refused to go up then i made radio upadte and tried flash again to NRG rom but the flash keep stucking in the middle every time.
i got stucked with the error cable code in bootloader menu.
flashed from sd the newest ROM 3.14.405.2 still nothing changed still with error and now without the HSPL.
is there anything else i missed?
JUST TRIED TASK29..afte 4% stopped with messege not allowed
Welcome to the dark side,I did the same thing,I followed someones advice and flashed the official 3.14 from the SD card,now I am stuck at the bootloader with SPL 3.03.
Lots of peaople here have become bummers asking for a new HSPL but the smart guys seem to be turning a deaf ear.
try to flash earlier official rom e.g 1.66 rom not from sd card but with the pc

Holy h*t...
Are you freaking crazy?
You MUST NOT flash a original ROM from SD card... That will overwrite the hardspl...
If you guys follow the RTFM tradition before do something you don't understand, then that would not happen...
Now you have to wait until a new hardspl is released...
Maybe you should do a task 28/29 and flash 3.14 with RUU.
Before you guys do another stupid thing... Don't try a "task 2a".
Maybe it don't brick your device, but it also will not help.

yes i have from sd and from usb..getting 28002 not allowed.
tried mtty42.1 task 29 and task 28 55aa
still no hope.
What should task 55aa do? In my opinin it should flash everthing except the radio. Right?
What kind of HD2 sells HK? Is it an ordinary 512MB one?
Is this an original HTC? I know the chinese people does not like originals, they like to sell their own not working but nearly original looking phones...
Look at this Touch Diamond
What happens if you install the latest HSPL (2.08)?
Is it possible to flash a new SPL (does not matter if original or not)
What kind of Radio do you have actual on your Phone?
Many regards

it is the orginal,he bought the phone with the wwe_asia 1.66 rom with english and chinese.
as i said tried to flash to 1.66 and again with new 3.16. but still getting not allowed.
task 28 55aa should format the device but some say its working only in case of hspl.
and since my phonw now got the 3.03 spl i guess its not possible.
correct me if im wrong but my only optios seems to be jtag which cost here in some labs about 150$...
Oh my god... What shoudl I do with you?...
I don't want to brick my HD2 to try something for you...
But... Did you know something about a "Goldcard" method?
If not I will help you to create one. On other phones the Goldcard allows to flash ROMs from another Provider... For example you have a Vodafone ROM and want a Stock HTC ROM... Normally this should not work. With a Goldcard it does...
Maybe you have an old microSD Card which we can use?!
Maybe we can also try to flash it with SSPL. Did you try this, too?
I never used SSPL, maybe it did not work in Bootloder mode, but we will se this when we try it

I hope it will help the author...
I know how it feel when the own phone is broken.
My first HD2 was overrun by a car... And it takes me 5 month to repair it, because I can't get a keypad ribbon...
And my second HD2 is not really broken... My girlfriend loaned it two weeks ago for one week. She still has is, because she like the Android OS on it and until now she won't give it back to me. Now I have to wait until my Desire HD arrives me
What should I say... Women...
But... PPP works very well for her operator (BASE) on Android, I've interruptions every 5 minutes and I can be lucky if I can reconnect after each disconnect
Back to topic...
@coneman23:
I'll hope you've flashed a 2.**.50 radio (for e.g. 2.12.50) not a 2.**.51.
I've noticed, that those radios do not work with some ROMs.
Crusoe86 redirected me here.
is there actually a way to fix this?
maybe with goldcard and official 1.48 rom?
Here I am...
You could try HSPL3 to revert back to an older SPL. Maybe that works...
And you can try older Stock ROMs like the 1.48 (from SD card (I use an old one when I flash my HD2, maybe thats is more compatible like newer SDHC cards)).
Andhopefully it replaces the new SPL.
But I would try the Goldcard method or try to boot SSPL from bootloader mode...
My girlfriend has my HD2 actually. I can't try anything

I dont know how to make a goldcard, so i cant make one.
I recommend that you try this (found in your thread).
If that does not work, we can make a Goldcard.
It is not very difficult, but this solution in your thread seems to be easier if it works.
Hi i had my hd2 repaired by htc now the spl is spl3.03.0000

There is no HSPL version present yet who is compatible with SPL 3.03
We need to wait sir
Ow Ps, do you have a Branded UK Orange device?
no its unbranded
Any updates on hspl for this yet
if its unbranded just flash a stock 1.66 to downgrade the spl then hspl as before.
Hi. I am on 3.14, i would need to downgrade too...
would this file i found online be good? :
RUU_Leo_HTC_NLD_1.66.404.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.0 ΒΆ
7U_2.06.51.07_Ship
Its 1.66.404.1 but not 1.66.0000.. is this a problem?
I need to find a stock rom on NLD (dutch) to downgrade before putting my HSPL... Why is it so hard to find an original file from factory, say 1.42 in everylanguage?
And what is the difference by downgrading to 1.42 or 1.66?
Thank you kind sirs
1.66.404.1 is rom version,,, 1.66.0000 is the spl version.
yes that rom should be fine assuming you have an unbranded hd2. doesn't matter which you downgrade to, they both will allow hspl.
its not at all difficult to find them.
look for "leo official roms" thread, in rom development section, and in there, first post first link takes you to most of the roms.
Samsamuel, thx a lot for that positive answer HD2 is indeed unbranded.
makes me feel better, been in despair with my dutch HD2...
So its finally clearer to me, 0000 is SPL and XXX is rom version
But to Downgrade, a non SPL version is ok then?
But to install HSPL, i need an SPL version?
And one last thing, can i install all of this stuff without booting from SDmini?
Those were the old procedures, no?
Thx!
all stock roms come with a version of spl, but it doesn't say which spl in the filename.
1.43 and 1.48 roms come with spl 1.42.0000
1.66 and 1.72 roms have spl 1.66.0000
3.14 comes with spl 3.03.0000 and hspl doesn't work with it.
the numbers you see in the filename are rom (1.66.404.1) and radio (2.06.51.07) versions, not spl.
when you look in bootloader at spl, it will always end either .0000 or .hspl where 0000 is stock.
it doesn't matter which spl you have, so long as it isn't spl 3.03 then hspl will work and allow you to flash roms andradios.
Thx! Even clearer now
Unfortunately, i am currently on 3.14.. i tried installing a lower version ROM (1.66, the link i put earlier) but it didnt work..
How can i downgrade to those versions who enable me to use HSPL? Once u have a higher rom, it detects lower and u cant downgrade?
Is the only method to flash with SDcard?

Then that isn't your stock rom. (Although you didnt say why it didnt work, , ) if its teh right rom it will work
I think i managed to install my English pack allright!
I installed the earliest official pack from HTC, rom 1.48
Then installed HSPL3, then my official HTC WWE 3.14 rom!
Confirmed, it works!!!
Again, Thank you for your time and your explanations of roms!
See you around on the forums, mate!
dont smile too soon, if you flashed a 3.14 rom whilst spl is installed then you will have memory and stability issues.
Go to
settings menu all settings system memory, what does it show for free program memory? around 50meg? should be about 140.
Couldnt really find "memory settings" but what if ound was this:
Total storage: 176 mb
Used storage 56
Free storage 119 mb
TOtal programm 208 MB
Used program 163 mb
free programm 45 mb
NO SD CARD (must buy one tomorrow lol)
So, as u said, its around 40 mb.. What should have i done better?
Also, what is the difference in the SPL?
I mean, from factory settings, i upgraded to 3.14.
With HSPL, i upgraded to 3.14
What difference does it make, isnt it the same? Doesnt 3.03 spl install itself?
Anyways, will be glad to hear your comments on my new problem then haha
not through usb flash. If hspl is installed it remains installed.
3.14 roms must have spl 3.03.0000
Before the 3.14 roms it didnt matter, all roms worked on any version spl, but the 3.14 roms dont.
You should have removed hspl first, (so that your spl ends .0000) then flashed the 3.14 rom, , this allows it to upgrade spl to 3.03.0000
Hhm, i really dont wanna brick my HD2 with all those stability issues.. is there a risk if i leave it like that?
Anyways, i'll restart the instalations then. I checked on bootloader, currently this is what i have: SPL-2.08 HSPL 8G XE
How should i proceed? Should i flash from SD card a 3.14 directly WWE? I have nothing yet on my HD2, (using 3.14 WWE official rom from HTC website) so i dont really care about flashing, reinstalling, hard resets
Just give me advice on how to proceed to have the perfect installation
Is a flash from SD card obligatory? But that would get rid of HSPL, no? and if i get rid of HSPL, my HD2 is going to go back to its original language (DUTCH), right? I want to avoid putting my HD2 in that language...
Say, if i SDFLASH the latest rom WWE (even though my HD2 previously to HSPL only accepted NLD (hence dutch) roms), will it work?
Sorry for taking up so much of ur time, but ur comments are so helpful
connect to usb, put the phone in bootloader.
then
run hspl2
choose 1.66.0000
when phone reboots, quickly hold voldown to reenter bootloader
run the 3.14.exe
Thx for the quick reply.
Why would i use HSPL 2 now, i was using the HSPL 3 before? Isnt it the latest most stable one tu use?
Can i still run HSPL3 and choose 1.66? (i think not actually i only had choice of 2.08)..
So can i run HSPL3 and then re run with HSPL2??? It wont have compatibility issues?
And how to install the exe while in bootloader? Is it a flash from SD Card?
What will happen if i leave my 3.14 in the 2.08 SPL? only stability issues? No risk of bricking, or long term affecting negatively the phone?
So many questions.. hope u can answer all of them..
Also, one last big question: Now that HSPL is installed, isnt it easier to simply, when i recieve my SD card, to flash a WWE official rom 3.14? wouldnt that do the trick? Or i need to go through HSPL2 for sure?
Thx again!
the .exe's are just installers, the spl/hspl inside is the same. So, the 2.08.hspl in hspl3, the actual code that gets flashed to your bootloader, is IDENTICAL to 2.08.hspl in hspl2.
But, hspl3 only has 2.08.0000 and 2.08.hspl as options, but since spl 2.08 isn't stock for your phone, if you ever needed to get back to stock, you can do that with hspl2, but not hspl3, so since the one version of spl/hspl that they both contain (2.08) is teh same, and hspl2 has extra options for a non tmous user, why use hspl3? there is no reason.
Oh, and whilst we're at it, hspl2 detects which spl you currently have and offers you the opposite (so if it finds 1.42.0000 it sets the dropdown to 1.42.hspl)
HSPL3 doesnt do this, it always offers you 2.08.0000 until you manually change it, and many a newb has just clicked OK and thinks they have installed hspl, when in fact they haven't.
Lol, i be one of the many noobs.. But in my bootloader, it says i have installed HSPL, so.. i guess its installed!
Will follow your recommendations, but just one last thing
How to remove this current HSPL3 then and restart the steps with HSPL2? You said that
"But, hspl3 only has 2.08.0000 and 2.08.hspl as options, but since spl 2.08 isn't stock for your phone, if you ever needed to get back to stock, you can do that with hspl2, but not hspl3, so since the one version of spl/hspl that they both contain (2.08) is teh same, and hspl2 has extra options for a non tmous user, why use hspl3? there is no reason"
I used HSPL3 because i read on forums thats its better to use the latest HSPL as the previous versions usually are out of date.. seems i was mistaken then... Also, i used HSPL3 because it was compatible with any 1.XX rom, and i could only downgrade as low as 1.48. Would HSPL2 be able to be installed on 1.48 official rom? I thought highest HSPL2 could work on was 1.42?
So you say that now that i have installed HSPL3, i cannot go back to stock? Im sure there would be a way, but what should i do then?
Should i just flash some stock rom from SD card, hoping it takes HSPL3 away, and restart procedure with HSPL2?
Or with USB sync i can restart the procedure, by just openiong HSPL2 without touching any rom?
