I have a Tmobile HD2 with SPL 2.10. I am trying to downgrade it to 1.42 so that way I can install HSPL and flash my Radio rom to the latest version.
How do I downgrade my SPL to 1.42 in order to install HSPL?
Basic info about my HD2:
ROM Version: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
ROM Date 4/28/10
Radio version: 2.10.50.26
Also, how do i figure out if my HD2 is 1024leo?
Ignore my question above. I answered it myself by viewing this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
I have another question. So it seems my HD2 is a 1024leo.
1) How do I know if this rom, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=595318, is compatible with my 1024leo?
2) If I ever want to roll back to the default non-custom rom, is this possible? If so so where do I download the original stock rom? And how do I make sure I am downloading the compatible one so I don't brick my phone?
yes you can rollback to stock rom just download it from http://www.htc.com
and you will know is it compatible with your phone because to download stock you have to neter your serial wich tells htc that you have a tmous
yes you can rollback to stock rom just download it from http://www.htc.com
and you will know is it compatible with your phone because to download stock you have to enter your serial wich tells htc that you have a tmous
Where do I download the stock ROM?
Also, as for custom ROM how do I figure out which one is compatible with my HD2? I don't want to end up bricking it. I remember reading somewhere that since my HD2 is a 1024leo, I can't flash certain radio roms and custom roms. How do I know which ones I can't flash?

lmao, you can tell because the first sentence says "These roms are TMO-US compatible."
Your phone = 1024leo = tmous = TMO-US

you are in the wrong forum. This is the forum for the regular hd2, you need THIS tmous specific section. Go there and read, read some more, then read again. This time next week you will know all you need to know.
The most important thing for you to remember is NEVER NEVER NEVER flash ANY stock rom that is not for the tmous, and NEVER NEVER NEVER flash any radio that has a 51 in the version. Example 2.07.51.x radio will totally destroy your phone. (See the first few posts in the tmous radio thread.)

Hi! I read the guide, for the locking the SPL for the warranty, but they provide the 1.90 version of spl. But my original SPL version is 1.94. So, my questions are:
Using the 1.90 on the htc that was sold with 1.94, it can make any problems? (for the daily use)
Can I upgrade again at 1.94 for the warranty? If yes, where can I download 1.94 original?
I've read also other posts.... wich ask the same: "How can I backup my original SPL vendor?"
But they havn't any answers. So ok, I'm a noob, but I DON'T find a guide to this... so plz help me about it, link me a guide, 'cause maybe I've searched in a bad way... this is a big forum, and there's a person who know the answer XD
And did you try wiki?

Use the 1.90 spl in the guide, then flash your stock rom. stock roms include spl so the spl will automatically be updated to 1.94 or whatever version of spl your stock rom has. for example the latest official roms 5.XX have spl version 5.XX also.
Best regards,

@alternativ: sure, but I don't find what I really search.. or maybe I did an insufficient search
@alcadeias: really? thanks! There was a missing piece in the puzzle

mhmmm thx a lot, but are you sure? If I don't installa an official SPL I can't install the rom, and if I put the original 1.90 the rom cannot recognize the spl, so, about your answer: re u sure?

yes i am sure. i know you want to be extra careful, so if you need extra reassurance you can ask Da_G or hilaireg. i recommend sending a pm or searching for a thread managed by hilaireg. he is very nice and to me at least he always replied even when i had noob questions . also he is very very tech savvy.
later edit: older versions of spl recognize newer versions. how do u think stock rom users upgraded from 1.9x roms to 5.xx roms. so you should have no problem upgrading from the 1.9 spl in the recovery thread to any newer version of rom (spl).

It's normal if I upgrade to official HTC ROM, when I recover my data with Sprite Backup, (only) the version of the rom became the old version? But radio and protocol still remaining at the new version... it's only a bad indication or the rom is "switched" on the old rom? (after restore I don't need an hard reset, the phone just have an automatic soft reset)
Hello. I bought my HD2 in India and it has the ROM version : 1.48.720.2(71294)WWE and the radio version: 2.05.51.05_2. HTC has not released any updates(1.66 ROM etc) in india(except for some patches like SMS, camera fix etc). Now i want to flash it to some custom ROM but before doing that i have a few questions.
a)Can i straight away install HSPL3 or it's a gradual process(from hspl1 to hspl2 to hspl3)?
b) After installing HSPL , can i choose any custom WWE ROM and radio combination ? Say if i wish to install Radio_2_10_50_26 and some energy's 6.5.5 ROM , would that be possible? Or i have to look for ROM's that are specific to my region/country.
much appreciated.
no you can use hspl straight away make sure you choose one ending in hspl not .0000 because thats stock spl, you should prob read a bit more first by the sounds of it mate, and you can install any rom you wish and most roms will say what radio is recommended but you can also check the last few pages to see what radios people are using, hope this helps
Thanks for replying Demon_man. I 've downloaded a file called HSPL3_PKG.zip from a thread called HSPL/HSPL2 HowTo flash everything. And i 've gone through a tutorial named Flashing your First GSM 512LEO Rom (For Noobs). So what i understood is that when i will run HSPL_PKG.exe , it will ask me for the HSPL version to install(tutorial says
i can select between SPL2.08.0000 or 2.08.HSPL
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
, so i guess only two versions are packed). And there i need to select 2.08.HSPL and NOT SPL2.08.0000. Once it is installed chances of bricking my phone are minimal. Please correct me if i am wrong.
Hi this is my first post on this forum, I have read alot and i tried to run android on my HD2 but i found out that my radio was too low for the requirements.
My question is if I update my firmware from HTC itself... will it update my radio aswell? I don't know what rom to download from HTC as there are so many.
Here are some few details of my HD2:
OS Version: 5.2.21864
Manila Version: 2.5.19202525.0
ROM Version: 1.43.405.1 (70124) WWE
Rom date: 10/26/09
Radio Version: 2.04.50.22_2
Protocol Version: 15.26.50.07U
Flash size: 512mb
How can I run android on this phone and how can I get an official update as I have no trust in unofficial updates.
THANK YOU
its a regular hd2, or a telstra hd2. either way, none of the official updates for it contain a high enough radio for android..
where did people get the stock roms then? and whats the best way to get android on my phone by just running it on SD and how can i just patch just the radio and is it only the radio that needs to get patched?
they get stock roms from the thread in rom development called "leo official roms". but as i said, i'm pretty sure android needs a radio of 2.10.50 or so to work best, and the x.x.50 radios come from the tmous roms, so you would need to hspl to flash those radios..
your best option rather than asking here is to go read the android section. there are a few "how to"s in there will tell you all about it.

thanks, i managed to run froyostone on my phone but, i first ran HSPL then ran customruu and did the method to run froyostone on sd. one question how can i revert everything back to normal?
I figured how to remove HSPL but how can i restore the radio to the stock radio i got? incase i want to restore it....
thanks
flash your stock rom.
thanks sorry that im a noob but when I tried to launch froyostone the second time, my phone woundt run it and shows a message.. the only way it launched was to restore the whole phone.. is there any other way?
I am attempting my first ever flash.
However, I am going to flash a cooked rom which is not compatible with my current radio. My first question is, do i have to flash the new radio first, and then the cooked rom, the other way around, or does the order not matter ?
Also, when i tried to flash the radio with cutomruu, when it confirmed what version to what version, it gave me my current roms version, and asked me if i wanted to update to the new radio version? shouldnt it give me old/new radio version?
can someone please help i really wanna get this done as soon as possible.
Thanks !
You need hspl first before you do anything . Then flash the radio , make sure it's a .50 never a .51 . After that do the rom . Most chefs (the people that make the roms) will recommend certain radios as they have tested the roms with these but really as long as it's a .50 radio it's really down to which one works best for you .
There are guides on flashing Roms at the top of the rom development page read it all carefully and you won't go wrong .
Hello, and Wellcome to the Forum.
1. you need HardSPL
2. If you have an Radio with an 51 like 2.07.51.2 then you need an Radio with an 50 Like 2.07.50.2 on most Roms
3. Flash the Radio befor the Rom
4. After Radio Flash you can go on with the Rom Flash.
Here are some infos more: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
All an top of the HD2 ROM Development you find the Sticky Post ther are more Infos.

If the new ROM is not compatible with the old radio, then definitely flash the new radio 1st.
The ROM installer is telling you the correct info. I would surmise it was designed for flashing ROMs, so it would always give you the current ROM version. However, the same software is used to flash radios.
Hope this helps. I viewed some Youtube videos before I flashed. There are some showing both a radio and ROM flash for the HD2.
i am just a newbie to all this...i just wanted to update my rom...
my details are:-
OS------5.2.21864

I read the page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283 but can't understand which version to download...is it safe to install..World Wide English (WWE) 3.14.405.2 or Indian: (Asia_India) 3.14.720.3...
even whenever i go to official htc site to download rom..my serial is this HT9BDNW04917 so i got not suitable for your device...as i have buyied this defice from uk and its a o2 unlocked device
what to do please help..
Good day sir,
First of al some important informations, if you go to install the latest stock ROM 3.14 it's important to remove HSPL first. (use HSPL2_RUN.exe and select a spl value.)
secondly, fore the moment there is no o2 UK 3.14 stock ROM out. so you need to use the GoldCard technique for upgrading your ROM to a 3.14 version.
Take a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825397
I would personally recommend just loading HSPL3 and then just selecting on of the roms in the ROM Development section, as they usually integrate the new roms released from other providers with there rom.

It depends sir, even if you use a custom ROM build on stock ROM 3.14 it's recommended to install stock ROM 3.14 before installing this custom ROM's. And like mentioned before, stock ROM 3.14 isn't compatible with HSPL!

Thanks a lot for your response sir...
Can't i do that using hardspl..cause i have flashed my radio to 2.15..which is too not out yet for my O2 uk model...and this Gold card technique is a lil tough...also i read this..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8989286&postcount=30
