Hi
Not too long ago i tried to flash my spl to 2.8 in order to upgrade and flash some roms
Unexpectedly, it gave me some problems, so i want to try to re-flash the old spl and instead of sticking with winmo, i'll try to move on to android.

cannot downgrade from the leaked 3.16 back to 2.17??

Hi there
I had 2,17 and upgraded to the leak rom 3.16. I did not use any locker or unlocker when upgrading. I am having issues with mail2web that it sends the same sent email several times. I think there is an active sync bug with the leaked rom. Anyways, I am trying to downgrade back to the official 2.17 and I when try to flash after the intial reboot it tell me error 328 invaild command
can anyone please help??
I had that same problem on one of the other roms. My email issue was fixed by hard resetting and reflashing the same rom. AS far as getting back to a different rom, not sure. You might need to find the older unlocker program from oilpro and cokeman.
Good Luck
As a matter of fact I plan on doing this within the hour. I'm ging to use the Re-locker tool and ill back report back with progress.
*Update*: Re-locker tool worked perfect Find it here

Anytime you want to flash an "Official" Sprint ROM, you will need to relock the device.
Also, to make sure the reflash completely overwrites everything, I usually flash a ROM multiple times...
trying to downgrade bricked my mogul
I was having issues with the leaked rom, and wanted to downgrad back to the sprint 2.17, I was also geting error 328. and here is the part that bricked my phone, since i couldn't get teh official 2.17 to load i tried to load a custom 2.17 rom which said it installed 100%. However when i reboot i am now stuck in the preboot screen that says for testing only.
I had pretty much the same issue - upgraded to a 3.16 custom to try it out. Didn't care for the flakiness of it.
To downgrade, you will need to use the relocker to go back. After that I flashed a stock Sprint 2.17. Then unlocked again to get a 2.17 custome ROM.

HELP

Hi I'm looking for some help. I tried upgrading my XV6800 to the windows 6.5 rom but I think I might of messed up. I tried to update my radio first but ran in to issues.
I used Oilpro 1.20 to try and tried to update the radio but along the way messed up while trying an older rom and I'm currently at a Verizon screen with the message "NO RADIO" at the bottom. I'm assuming the radio rom was erased. I might have gotten confused with the roms and used a rom without the appopriate Radio. When I try to flash that rom back to a stock Verizon upgrade it just ends 11% in to the flashing process and the rom update utility returns a Error 290 screen.
Currently I can get the oilpro 1.20 bootloader to still load up but I'm not sure what to do at this point. I tried updating the ROM to DCD's older 3.20 roms, which did complete but I still have that screen coming up. Can anyone give me some suggestions on what I should do next? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try using NueSPL 2.47 it's more current
Doesn't have have to be run on the phone itself once inside Windows? The only screen I can get up is the Verizon (splash) screen where it normally lists the rom and radio, or the oilpro boot loader screen. I actually can't get back in to windows to run the nueSPL 2.40.exe file.
Is there a way for me to flash the radio back from a bootloader screen and USB or SD card? The thing is I actually tried to take the 3.42.40 radio and use the Flash Rom Utility to see if it would flash the radio rom back on but even though the process completes successfully, I still get the no radio error so I guess it doesn't work. Thanks for the help, I think I may have been a few of the idiots out there who screwed things up and didn't make sure the radio was up before attempting any rom upgrade.
You should've changed the bootloader first. Your radios that you are trying are not compatible with your bootloader.
Flash an old stock rom via SD, then update your bootloader to 2.47 once you can get back into windows, then update your radio, and then your rom.
Yeah that was one of the first things I've tried a USB update back to the stock Verizon 6.1 ROM, but for some reason it prematurely ends at 11% with the PDA Phone Update Utility throwing a ERROR 290 message. This is the first time this has happened as I've flashed with this same rom tons of times. I've been looking online for the past hour on how to flash the ROM from a SD card if I can't get in to Windows. But all I could find was the USB update utility and it ends at 11% Am I doing it wrong? any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
If you can still get in the bootloader then you should be fine....I would put it manually in bootloader holding power and camera simultaneously and poke the hole to get it into bootloader.
Once you do that plug in the data cable and run Olipro 2.40 or Nue 2.47. It should be able to take after that.
Basics steps to flashing a phone:
correct unlocker-->stock ROM-->custom ROM
Most custom ROMs will not include Radios that why you would run the stock ROM first to install the radio and then run the custom ROM. Alot simpler then trying to update the Radio by itself.
AWESOME! I got it back up, thanks guys. For reference purposes I'm going to restate the problem and solution incase other noobs run in to the same issue.
PROBLEM:
I installed oilpro 1.2 during the process of installing a new radio then a rom. Along the way the rom install failed. I tried to reinstall a stock Verizon rom RUU 3.57 & 3.37 radio but it failed at 11%. I was then stuck at the splash screen with a message that said NO RADIO. I could still get in to the boot loader with the power and camera button. But the stock Verizon rom did not install anymore.
SOLUTION:
I used titan_exitbl.exe to exit the bootloader and I went back to an earlier rom found here, rom 2.09 & radio 1.30. That one actually installed. It seems to have worked. I'm back in windows now but I need to uninstall oil pro 1.2 and get nuSPL 2.47 on there before I move further (it looks like while it's still on the stock RUU won't work for me).
Do you guys know how I would go about uninstalling Oilpro 1.2? Will Titan_relocker do it for me? I'm not sure if installing nueSPL over oilpro will do it.
Use this ROm from Verizon to get the Stock 6.1 back up and running. It's the MR2 rom

Glad to hear you got your phone back up
As far as I know you should be able to just install 2.47 and it will overwrite your old bootloader without problems. I could be mistaken but there isn't really a way to "uninstall" a bootloader, just overwrite it with a different one.
unL33T is correct...just run Nue 2.47 and let it overwrite the old one. 8p
Yeah that's what I thought too, but when I tried to over right it with 2.47 the 1.20 showed up again so I used the titan_relocker tool. Maybe I did something wrong. I'll go recheck, thanks for the replies guys.

[q] spl 3.03.0000

Morning.
Is there a method to revert back to an old SPL from 3.03.0000 ?
I have searched and searched but to no avail yet. I have tried HSPL2 and 3. I have read that applying a old stock from from SD card does not work either.
The situation is that my HD2 has come back from warantee repair (overheating/reboot issue) and is running SPL 3.03 with their stock rom. This means that I cannot run a lightweight windows rom and therefore cannot properly run my favourite Android rom(s).
I have read a few people in the same boat so thought I would create a new thread as I couldn't find one yet.
Thank you so much.
Yans.
Hello!
I've had this problem too. You have to flash an ORIGINAL ROM from HTC homepage for your device. You will need the serial number (under the battery) of your HD2. Flash the Original Rom that you downloaded from HTC. After this you will have the old SPL version on your HD2.

* Please note that this upgrade will erase any data stored on the device. Once you proceed with the upgrade, the system can not be downgraded again.
I think theres no normal way (means u cant downgrade official roms, without hspl) of downgrading. U have to use hspl, if it capable of removing the 3.03 spl. If HSPL2-3 cant do that, u have to wait for the new hspl.
Correct me if im wrong.
spl 3.03.0000
Hallo
Install the old original Htc Rom on your HD2 from your PC.

As i told u guys before. U cant install official roms via activesync. Theres only 1 way and that is HSPL.
U cant downgrade officials rom via activesync or sd card.

The only way is HSPl.
Hi.
Don't be fooled.
I have upgraded and downgraded, and upgraded and downgraded and upgraded again using only the .exe files downloaded from htc.com

Let me check for you....
EDIT:
Just went back to spl-1.42.0000 by just flashing to 1.48 stock WWE rom.
So I guess you can go back to any rom easily.
Now flashing back to 3.14....

Copied that stuff from HTC.COM
Flashing without HSPL? Via activesync?

Of course you can downgrade.
What they mean is that your data is permanently lost. Nothing else.

Downloaded the Roms through the support part of HTC.com
Connect phone with activesync.
Run downloaded .exe
That's it.
Easy as that.
If HTC.com does not take your serial (IE branded phone) look at this topic for the new rom:

And here for older stock rom:

Well, i remember i tried to downgrade once, and i got a message, that i have newer rom, so it cant downgrade.
But i belive u, and still htc says its not possibile.
Thank you
Thank you everyone for your assistance. i am back on HSPL 2.08.
I already had the stock rom from HTC website because I put it on to send the phone back for repairs. I put this back on a moment ago and it put SPL 1.42 back on, PERFECT!
The only reason I didn't do this before (after reading other posts) is because when I did this initially (for sending the phone back) it didn’t touch the SPL but now I realise this was down to the fact it was running HSPL and not SPL.
So I have now incremented SPL 1.42 to HPSL 2.08 and running ChuchDroid for my lovely Android rom. Excellent.
Thank you all
Yans.
Go to your local HTC.com website,go to the support page,look for ROM upgrades for your device(HD2),if the old ROM is removed from the website you most probably wont be able to downgrade,now if you find there 2 ROM updates,say like 3.14.xxx and 166.XXX,chose the older version and enter your S/N if accepts its good to go
Hey guys. Im having this problem over at this thread: /showthread.php?t=814656
My problem is that Activesync does not detect my phone. So I can't downgrade.. But if I somehow get one of the official ROM's (say 1.48) and get the .nbh file onto the sd card, could that work?
YES I DID IT!! Multi card reader for the win!
Flashed WWE rom below but SPL still shows old one HSDL 1.42

it wont upgrade it whilst hspl is installed unless you flash from sd card.
will it upgrade when I revert back to SPL 1.42 or 1.66 with HSPL2 tool?

yes it should, but only if your phone is an unbranded wwe one, else it won't flash.
yeeyyyyyyy thank you so much guys...with your help i could get back to 1.42. from 3.03 now im gonna look for some nice wm and android roms thank you so so much guys you made my day
Great to know.
My HD2 died with an unresponsive touchscreen, whilst having hspl 1.42 on.
I got the latest ROM off HTC with my serial, flashed with EXE but HSPL was not overwritten, so I thought that flashing through activesync didn't upgrade the SPL.
Hence I flashed latest rom via microSD and I got the SPL 3.03 there, sure that there was a HSPL for that too.
When I realized there wasn't, I was left with the nightmare of getting back from warranty a bloathed system I couldn't get back to operating conditions.
Now I discover that all it takes to downgrade SPL 3.03 is running the official exe for your device off an older ROM.
Nice.

[Q] [AUG 29] Radio v2 Flash Error

This is my first thread so I hope Im not double posting with my question. I am trying to get my HD2 back to stock, I have downloaded the official t-mobile rom from htc. Whenever I try to flash ROM from sd card or any radio it gets stuck at 96% or 99%. I have tried hspl 2.08 and if I do 2.08.0000 nothing will flash at all. I am at my wits end because I have tried every suggestion and have searched high and low through the threads. Any help is appreciated.
Hey! If you installed some other roms (wm, wp or android) you need program task 29!
It will clean your flash memory. After that you need to know what was the original spl on your phone (like 2.08.0000 or 3.05.0000) SPL, not HSPL! Flash your stock SPL! reboot, enter in bootloader again and connect phone in to pc, flash your stock rom while you in bootloader through pc! It works for me 100% Enjoy)

[Q] Need help flashing stock rom!

I currently have a MIUI android ROM installed but want to go back to WinMo 6.5 (stock). Now when i try to flash the ROM like i did before, its says on my PC USB Init failed, connection problem. The bootloader screen does say usb. Also when I try to flash trough the MAGLDR flash modus there is USB standing but i cant flash. I've also tried flashing the stock ROM from my SD card as an NBH file but it wont work.. Also repartitioning and all the stuff dont work because they all have te connection problem. I have tried multiple USB cables. Anyone know a solution??
you say that the SD flash doesn't work, can you elaborate a bit more?
explain everything you did, what ROM did you try, if you can give me the whole step by step you tried to SD card flash, including and file name changes etc
SD flash is usually the last resort and if you tried it with a genuine original Stock ROM it should work, albeit it will change the RADIO, SPL and ROM at the same time...
Hello,
I intend to downgrade my hd2 Europe version, from Android with Magldr, to stock Rom,
because of some bootloops i encounter after trying install wp7, so i want to start from scratch and try flashing wp7 or Android again!
I have HSPL 2.08 and i want to flash a Greek Stock Rom
(RUU_Leo_S_HTC_ELL_3.14.482.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship)
OR
(HTC HD2-RUU_Leo_HTC_ELL_1.66.482.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship_2).
My radio is 2.15.50.14.
So far i have made some research and i understand that:
1st. i must flash a stock Rom from SD.
2nd. The hspl will be replaced with stock SPL. Do i need to flash HSPL 3.03, as 3.14 ROMs on HTC HD2 Eu require SPL 3.03.0000 or HSPL 3.03, before flashing stock Rom from SD? What about 1.66 Rom?
The stock SPL version depends from the Rom which i would choose, or will be the same?
after that I just need to run HSPL4, install HSPL2.08 and continue with Magldr as i have done in the past?
Is there something I should be extremely careful so as not I have a fatal problem?
Thanks in advance everyone who will help a confused man!!!

just follow the guide on the relevant ROM that your interested in
but if your playing with WP then use HSPL 2.08
if your flashing a stock ROM via SD as you pointed out it will replace the SLP with the one that comes with that ROM, so it doesn't matter what you do, then you can use HSPL4 to install the required version for the ROM that you want to use. You can use HSPL 4 to revert back to a stock SPL as well, but if you have any doubt at all then just re flash a original stock ROM, you cant go wrong at all then
Well, if i try to flash anything from my pc it says connection error. When I use flasher modus the HD2 freezes and i need to pull out the battery. I also tried flashing the stock ROM from my SD card but that also doesnt work. I use MAGLDR 1.13 and HSPL 2.08 i think. The current ROM is MyMIUI V11.
i managed to install the stock rom but now i cannot install magldr. When i start the installation the hd2 shows bootloader, then goes into the installation screen but after 1 second it flashes back to bootloader.. any help?
are you putting the phone in to the tri coloured bootloader with the word "serial" at the bottom? plug in to a USB port and the word changes to "USB" then install MAGLDR?
just so im clear what you have tried
