Phone won't boot after flash - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was using ChuckyDroidROM for a few months, and it always worked, but recently it took a couple tries to get it to boot. Now it gets stuck at the "loading please wait..." screen. It won't show any of the red text either (R,G,D)
I tried flashing a new ROM, Omega v15, and it still shows the old boot screen, and hangs there.
Next, I tried task 29, no cigar.
I tried flashing the ROM again after task 29, but it just refuses to work.
So I still don't have a working phone, does anybody know what's going on here?

New problem:
I can't flash anything!!
Most times the flasher stalls some time during the flash, and refuses to continue, I let it go for an hour....
I tried four different ROMs..........

answer to phone not booting after task 29
format ss card and reboot/load rom from boot load screen

Okay, my problem got better, but it still won't work as advertised...
I successfully flashed a new radio, 2.15.50.14
And a ROM, Energy
It boots, but not with my SIM card. I can use it for a little bit, but it crashes eventually, usually only after about 20 minutes of use.
If I install the SIM card, it boots, but then crashes almost immediately. It just freezes, doesn't respond to any input, and I have to push the reset button, or pull the battery.
I need help!

had the sim a few years? not unknown for older sim cards to be problematic.

The thing is, it was working for several months, it just decided to stop working recently.

Format after format....Mitty, Hspl.....STILL old rom remains!!

I Installed Hyperom using all proper procedure, but after a couple of day's couldn't get on with it, so downloaded a new Rom and went through the usual procedures of Task 29 etc....loaded new custom Rom......only looked 80% like it was suppposed too, even tried other Roms - same result.
Main this is that even after using a decent sdhc memory card formatter... ........I can do task 29, 50,000 times, soft resets, flash to standard rom, ...format again....bacically no matter what do, The first 5-10 seconds of the new Rom loading STILL displays the text from a previous Rom.
It's a black screen, comes up saying "Hyperrom".....about 10 seconds later, the new upgraded Rom loads up, but never looks or performs like it should.
I've made sure installing correct radios etc for whatever Rom I download, tried bootloader format, active sync format, left memory card out.....no matter what I try parts of the old Rom still remain.....frustrating.
Any Ideas?
Tried everything I can, used search funtion in orum etc......6-7 different Roms, all with correct Radios and installation procedures...still get black screen with "Hyperom" logo and black screen, new Rom loads and works, but only 80%......ARRGGHHHHHH
Weeks this been happening now.
please please please can somebody help me??
much appreciated
Matt
the first screen up to the animation is a splashscreen or bootscreen, and is not connected to the ROM, meaning unless you flash a stock rom, or a custom that includes one(like the one you hve stuck there) then it will remain.
you can flash bootscreens just like roms and radios,

White Screen appeared during use, HD2 now wont boot.

I was using my HD2 the other day for both Android and Windows mobile (Stock ROM). I had no problems with it at all, and at this particular time, had it on WM, but when I took it out of my pocket to use it I noticed there was nothing but a white screen. I tried restarting and I still get nothing but that same white screen.
I'm able to access the bootloader and it shows as having HSPL installed, though any attempt to install a ROM leaves it stalled at 0%. I can update the LEOimg.nbh through the storage card, but as soon as it's done and I restart, i'm right back at that white screen.
I feel like i've tried absolutely everything to attempt to fix this, and I wouldn't clog up the forum with another thread if I wasn't absolutely lost. If anybody could help me with this, I would hugely appreciate it as I can't be without a phone for too long, and being unable to remove HSPL means I can't take it back to the store.
Thanks for any help.
EDIT: Phone appears to have fixed itself now.

serious help please

use the proven process of elimination, have you installed something recently?
a Manila Mod, or tweak? I hope you have a backup of everything essential
on your device, as it may that you need to HR
maybe its only a dead sd card..
take out sdcard, sim card and battery for a few minutes and reinsert only the battery and try to boot up...
if this doesnt work, you'll need an hard reset..
so i kept resttiing until it booted up. then i saw these posts and decided to restart the phone and it doesnt work again. so i reset again an pressed the talk button then it went to the launching sense screen. me being a gambler i reset it again and it stalled again until i hit the talk button. now i reset it a couple of more times and its back to loading normal on its own. im only stating everything i did just in case someone else might come across this problem at some time. thanks for you guys quick response and help
Try a full reinstall using the flashaholic app that does a full OS ROM format, also backup any files on the SD card and reformat that too and see what happens.
I should add that the full "task 29" format thing probably wont work well unless you have HSPL installed (otherwise you have to first install a stock ROM, then SSPL install your custom ROM; kind of defeats the point of the full format!)

I screwed up, flasing stuck at 0%; help!

I really screwed up.
I wanted to update my phone to the latest Energy version, and during the flashing process, absent-mindedly thinking about continuing the setup sitting at the couch (as opposed to the computer), I detached the phone.
Now, when I turn it on, it just says "Software update failed! Please try again.", but I cannot access the coloured bootloader.
If I try to update again (or even do task29) everything goes fine, till the progress bar appears, which is stuck at 0%.
I've tried running an original HTC firmware img from the card, but then I get the following error:
0028002
NOT ALLOW
Please help!
EDIT: After that, the bootloader appears, so I thought about trying a regular update then. When I do that, the update fails telling me the update file is corrupt.

Hi,
I suppose you can put your HD2 in bootloader mode (three colour screen). If yes do task29 once again but with radio rom eg. 2.10.50.28_2. After that try to install different rom eg. omega, clarity etc.
Did you read my post?
I said it doesn't work. If I try to run task29 or anything, it WAS stuck at 0% endlessly.
I could only get to the bootloader when I tried to update from the card, and that failed too.
Now I can't enter the bootloader nor run any updates (they go to 1%, then report the updater is corrupt).
did u do HSPL?
i would double check

I already unlocked my phone before.
When I tried updating the original firmware from the card, that cleared the SPL, so now it seems to be the default. But when I tried to run HSPL now I get a wrong device code error.

unlocking is not the same thing as HSPL
updating stock ROM via sdcard will erase HSPL
go to bootloaded useing the volume key + power.
connect to USB and try and install the HSPL.
if it fails, try a different USB port\PC
if it still fails, can u post the text in tri color screen here
Sorry, when I meant "unlock" I meant the SPL thingy. I did not mean the carrier unlock, or whatever the technical term is.
Currently, I cannot access the bootloader at all.
Attempting to update with a freshly downloaded original HTC firmware gets the process stuck at 0%.
I managed to get to the bootloader...
It appears when I insert a card with LEOIMG, but it doesn't run the update from there, and appears to be STUCK at the bootloader (won't even show USB when the cable is connected).
Here's what it currently says:
HX-BC
SPL-2.08.0000 8G XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x30
Currently, the phone refuses to update the firmware using the LEOIMG from the card (won't even show the question), and any attempt to flash it normally results in the phone being stuck at 0%.
Trying to install HSPL says "incorrect device ID".
Reformat the sd card with fat 32 or exfat put leoimg on there and press & hold volume down while turning phone on. Hope you get it working again....
Sent from my HD2 FroYo using the XDA app

I just tried this; the phone shows the bootloader and something extra in the corner (I didn't notice what it was) and is now stuck on "Loading...".
EDIT: Trying exFAT didn't reach that point at all. It got stuck on the bootloader saying that the software update failed. FAT32 was the one that got stuck on Loading.
BTW, I hope I'm not just very impatient, but if after 5 minutes it's STILL 0%, then I'd say chances are, something is wrong.
EDIT 2: I fear that trying to update via the card or USB cable just won't work. As such, I pray there's a qualified support in my town, which can handle HTC phones and can brutally flash the software (as I reckon this is the only thing that can be done).

Hopefully it's not a hardware problem.
Find me on skype - pannet7. I can speak Polish.

Well, apparently HTC is rather unpopular in Poland... I found one place in my town (Poznań) where they were willing to give it a shot, but their HTC service technician is on vacation till Monday.
I can use the official warranty method, but that will take about a week, starting Monday as well.
If anyone has any more ideas, I'm all ears.
so... did yo manage to get it working ?
- just out of curiosity ..

[Q] HTC HD2 stuck at the startup screen pls help

Hello, my HD2 started entering the re-boot loop probably because of overheating (I live in a warm country and it started showing problems during the summer). After that, I installed the new official rom from the HTC website (finding a SN online :S) after trying to install the new rom I realised I shouldn't have tried that since it wasn't made for my SN. Anw after that the phone is kind of dead, freezes at the HTC boot screen. I have installed HSPL 1.42 on it but I can't load any new rom (I enter the bootloader - that's the only way I can think of since I got lost in a zillion posts) When it starts loading the new roms into the phone I get a 276 error saying it can't finished the procedure. (after such an error on the startup screen I still see the HTC logo but this time with black and white stripes covering the screen). I can't seem to find something similar in the other posts, I hope it wasn't answered somewhere previously. Even if so please redirect me or tell me what else to try since I'm quite frustrated!.. Please explain thoroughly because it's been a while since I was into hd2 tech stuff. Thank you in advance!
PS: Can I somehow find what rom I currently have IF there is one installed? I'm lost here....

check the battery pins. ive read of people for whom it is possible to get into bootloader, and it seems like normal, but then it fails to load when trying to boot fully, usually a reboot loop.
forget about finding what rom is on there currently, its time wasted, really.
a better use of your time is using your serial to find out which rom the htc website will let you have, and flash that, from sd card preferably.
Why not just reset the phone, and start over?
found a good rom, installed it via sd card, still reboot loop. that make me think that the problem might be the battery pins. if so what's the solution?
same thing happend to me just adjust the pins

how do you adjust the pins? They're supposed to be straight right?
