Putting a HTC rom on A Vodafone HD2 - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys I see a new HTC stock Rom was realsed last week.
The problem I have is that I got my phone from Vodafone so that I cannot install htc stock roms
The final problem is that Vodafone have notified me that they will no longer release any firmware updates for this phone!!!
So im stuck on version 1.72 which was released a long time ago!
How can I install the new stock rom on my phone? I know before you installed hspl but I have read that this does not support the new stock rom 3.14.
Another method ive seen is goldcard?
Could anyone tell me what I would have to do to install the stock rom updates?
Thanks very much for the help guys!!

Have you tried it? HSPL then flash the official rom? if it dont work just try a custom ROM there's plenty out there, you can always flash from SD (the original Vodafone ROM) if something goes wrong. Think im right in saying that?

Do you mean that this rom can be used on any unit shipped by HTC without taking in account the original language?. For example, can it be used in a italian or spanish device?

this is only to be used on the htc-x7500
this is the shipped rom with wm5 and not wm6
will work only on the htc branded device and not the dopod or tmobile
gd luck
This file is corrupted
Why not T-mobile or Dopod ?
Will it break the device?

at the moment, there is no tools that allow us to flash other version of the device such as t-mobile and dopod, so please don't do it, by doing so, you void the warranty and have chances to brick your device, leave it to the advance user here first, once they confirm a method, then you do it.
Thank You, but file still corrupted.

TG01 unlocking question

hello guys, I have a question, hoping you can answer for me.
I have had my TG01 for two months now, on Orange UK.
I am looking to unlock it, and found this guy called vitamise.
I am also running the orange uk stock rom 6.5 which is the old version.
there us now a new update rom 6.5 version which is meant to fox call quality issues.
if I unlock my phone now(on old stock 6.5 rom) will I still be able to update it next time to new stock 6.5 rom without any problems? I have heard some people previously trying to update 6.1 to 6.5 having problems. could it affect this update?could it brick my phone?
please let me know,oliver

[Q] HTC HD2 on TMOBILE UK Need RUU plz!!

Hi All
I just got a HD2 on TMOBILE and want to stick a custome rom on it.
Can any one point me in the right direction plz
I know I need RUU to flash the ROM I think??
But can't find one, the one of the HTC website does not support my phone.
I did all this about 2 years ago on my HD but never needed to do it again.
From memory I stuck the rom on a XD card and used that but can't remember the complete proccess.
I am on SPL 1.66 if this helps
Thanks for your time.

[Q] Is it possible to downgrade from SPL 3.03 to 2.08?

I have the 3.14 ROM with 3.03.000 SPL installed on my HD2
What I`m trying to do is Install NAND Android. But to do this I need HSPL 2.08.
I read through a lot of Forums indicating that this can only be done if you flash an older ROM to phone, hence overwriting the 3.03 SPL.
Tried downloading one of the older stock roms (1.66 and 1.48) and then attemped to flash via SD and through the .exe file directly.
Heres what happened:
----------------------
From the .exe file it boots to the tri color screen and then reaches the progress bar screen. However it sticks there and the errors out with a code : 294.
At first I thought it could be an incorrect ROM but I doublechecked it.
Through the SD method after the phone detects the .nbh file it comes back with a "28002 : Not allow" error message.
Have tried this with various types of Mem cards but no luck.
I then tried SSPL with 1.66 and 1.48 as the ROM and i got it to flash the ROM with no problems but the HSPL still sticks at 3.03. And thats expected since SSPL is like a one shot go at flashing a ROM different from your region.
Question : Since this isnt working, will a task 29 help in this case? From what I understand it formats the filesystem that holds the OS. By doing so, will I then be able to flash one of the older Roms so I can install HSPL 2.08? Not sure if this will actually help.
Not sure what exactly i`m doing wrong here.

simple, you're using the wrong rom. It isnt just any stock rom, its a stock rom that is correct for your phone you need. so for example if its locked to orange france, you would need the orange FRA rom, if the phone came from o2 uk its the WWE O2 UK rom you need.
dont be confused by a phone that has been sim unlocked, it would still be rom locked.
Hi.
Just did this yesterday.
All you have to do is check the version installed.
Mine was 3.14.479.2 which is Eastern Europe.
So i downloaded the 1.66.479.2 and flashed.this flashed the 1.48 spl..
So problem solved.
forgot to mention the 3.14 it the rom version.the rest is region specific : in my case 479.2 means eastern europe.This is important.
Fox example i tried to flash WWE:1.66.405.2 (France Bouygues) but no luck. 0% and then error.
same problem - may be we need HSPL for SPL 3.03.0000
I experienced the same problem. may be we need HSPL for 3.03, or it is already available - i dont know....
Can anybody reply / answer / help us all who are having 3.03 and want to run NAND Android on their device ? ? ?
Thanks in anticipation.

OS 5.2.21913 (21913.5.0.94)

Problem can easily be solved by installing the correct previous stock rom.
For example if you have now the 3.14.405.x stock rom you need to use previous version 1.66.405.x Red numbers need to be the same.
You can download the stock rom's on the HTC webpage, ore take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283
thx i try it and i tell it

My HD2 is a Orange one, currently on ROM 3.14.61.2 (04666) WWE, and im trying to downgrade it...

So downgrading to HSPL 2.08 didn't work ?
Ahh, dont worry i have got it working now!!
look like i had an iffy usb cable which was stopping HSPL4 from connecting correctly.
All sorted and WP7 now running, though after all that i dont think i like it!!!

[Q] strange S/N and spl 3.03.000

Hi everybody,
i get a problem when i tried to flash my second HD2, flashed the first one without problems
i searched for spl 3.03 and i found other threads saying that we have to flash with stock ROM but the serial number doesn't match with the mskip list...
S/N is : HT01KNW03882 is there anyone who can tell me it 's from where ?
i bought it to a guy who get it with a contract it's under Orange french ROM and i'm in france so i get this french ROM:Leo_HTC_FRA_1.43.406.2_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U_2.04.50.22_2
but i get this message error during a sd card method (card was formatted in FAT32), after showing me the bootloader screen, in the grey back :00028002
Not allow
and then it returns in the tri color screen
sorry for the bad english and thanks in advance
Hello sir, honestly it isn't complicated.
You mention that it is a device who came from a contract under Orange.
So it is a Orange branded device.
So conclusion; you need this ROM: RUU_Leo_S_Orange_FR-B2B_3.14.73.2 Download!
And for your info; I have verified it with your S/N
thanks for reply !
this is the ROM i had already and the only one i can get from HTC whith the S/N you'r right but i tried that and it do not change spl
i just flashed it now with SSPL and a 1.43 french stock ROM but i just want HSPL on it

Mate, Im confused..
You said you have that rom installed/flashed but didnt change the SPL?
As I know, the stock rom version 3.14 contains SPL 3.03.0000. So, your hd2 should have had that spl now.
Try to check again in case you missed something.
Also please keep in mind that SPL 3.03.0000 are not compatible with HSPL at the moment. It will cause you trouble if you install HSPL over SPL 3.03
Cheers

that's the ROM i had when i get the phone and the only one i can get via HTC and the spl was only 3.03.0000 and do not change with flashing this ROM
now i have 1.43.french ROM and still this $&!ù^* 3.03.000 spl
ok i have successfully flashed the device with darkstone SuperRAM FroYo v1.5 using jayceooi's video because i saw the spl 3.03 in it

First of all I'm confused, If you already have this ROM; way your question about that you card find your stock ROM based on your S/N???
And secondly, way would you install stock ROM over SSPL??? Just use the normal installation proses. But in case you have HSPL on your device, remove it first. (HSPL isn't compatible with stock ROM 3.14)
was afraid when i saw that no S/N was like mine and i want HSPL because it's easy and i use it since Trinity without any probs.
flashed with SSPL because i really don't like Orange's ROM
If i understand correctly, you flashed with sspl and can't go back to hspl even after going back to stock rom. Its very easy to solve but difficult to find the required rom. All you have to do is download different kinds or should i say download an older version of the orange stock rom and install it on your device. That should solve your proplem, at least that how i was able to solve mine.

hehe, and that little piece of info is the cause of confisuion this mildly amusing thread,, , you see the only orange rom that has been released by HTC directly is the 3.14, (there is an earlier orange FR rom about, but i remember lots of people hunting high and low last summer for it) but the OP wants to downgrade to apply hspl.
@OP - give the one in post 2 a try HERE.
