Help! Broke phone :/ - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

... I knew messing about with ROMS would do this one day..
I Started to flash the 3.14 (I think) update from the HTC site this morning, I realised after I started HSPL would get in the way of that...
SO now it loads to the coloured lines screen, I tried coping a image to the SD card to flash straight from that but I cant get it to search the SD card. All I get when I hold down the power and volume button is a "loading" message for a split second, then nothing else!
Help! Any ideas what I can do now?
Thankyou!

Ok, so I can now get it to read from the SD card that there is a image there - but it just sticks at "loading"
Ideas?

2 Options.
Previous flash has gone wrong, so reflash the rom you was flashing using sd-card (also check on what SPL you are).
Get a goldcard and reflash any other stock rom.

SPL-2.08.0000
Is whats on the screen, previously it said HSPL so I think one of the roms may have been successful enough to change to SPL... But im guessing this is bad now as it wont flash again from the SD card!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=725985&page=7
This updated it to 2.08.HSPL
Im fairly certain Ill be able to flash at least a stock ROM now.
Wanted to ask first, Ill be messing with Andriod and possibly windows 7. Is there anything I should preferably be flashing too? Are there any limits with 2.08HSPL I need to be aware of before I start?
Thanks,

you'll need an updated radio for nand android or wp7 (each has its specifics - see threads).
but what wm rom won't matter, as well, it will be erased
no limits. if you have hspl you can flash any compatible rom, etc.

search for titan_exitbl
Well when i first tried to install it didnt really work because i didnt use the newest bootloader. I dont think its going to work for you either unless you use it. I would just go back to the stock rom/radio and use then install the newest boot loader/unlocker, then radio, then gps rom.
But if you want to try, your going to have to get a sd card, format it to fat32 then put the .nbh (the largest file in the rom download) file on the card, but name the file TITAIMG.nbh. Then put the phone in boot loader mode (hold camera, power, and reset)
When the phone starts up this time the bootloader will load that .nbh file to the phone just as if you had done it through active sync (close).
You can use this for anything really. If you want to go back to the stock rom, download the rom exe from htc's website and extract the .nbh file with a program called zipscan. If you do this you will be back to stock everything except maybe the BL im not really sure if.
If you want to try the newest rom (which most likely wont work since your not using the newest hard spl) just take that .nbh file and name it TITAIMG.nbh and put it on your sd card and put phone in boootloader mode and it should copy that image.
I tried to explain the best i could just ask if you have any questions.
for the life of my i cannot see why people cant search for a problem before they post about it.

Seems like most of the problems are from people not following directions... Even the ones I was having...lol. But this stuff is new to a lot of people and the information is kind of spread out.

Did you try to hold down the power/camera buttons and do a soft reset to try and get back to the bootloader screen?

This worked for me too!!!! Simple too. You can extract the .nbh file using winrar too.
And to comment on why people don't search for answers first before posting.....
I read everything I could before trying all of this out. My computer experienced the BSOD in the middle of the relocking process. The above listed methos was the only way that I could get my device to work. And yes, I asked the same question that hb1774 asked. I had read about this method in another post, but everything is so spread out and very new to me and a lot of people. Lets try not to be sarcastic. People come here to learn and hack. I know a hell of a lot about computers, but I'm not Yoda, so I'm going to need help. Until there is a well organized post with a solution to every issue that comes up, there are going to be repeat questions. If you know that it's a repeat question and you know where the answer is burried in the forum, why not post a link to the answer? Just my 2 cents worth.

well said johnannie. if you want to help people - help people. i have the same issue with my Mogul.
to the experts: THANK YOU for your work and help.

unfortunately when i go to download the stock ROM i downloaded from the HTC website it stays at 0% and then gives me an error message,tried numerous times but no luck, i was able to download HSPL3 though but that hasn't actually made any difference with regard to actually solving my problem,i done another search and tried numerous things but no luck, just have the multicoloured screen as before, have spent hours now, surely there has to be an easier solution to this as no doubt this has happened to a few people before!

flashed htc stock by sd card? if yes, then its because the stock HTC rom isnt your phones stock, and teh first thing it does when flashing from sd is remove hspl, even though the rom itself fails to flash (because hspl is no longer there)
Boot into bootloader, see what spl says.
If it ends .0000 then use hspl2 to re apply hspl,
re-enter bootloader, connect usb, does 'serial' change to 'USB'?
If yes, try running your rom flash again, but do it over usb. (Can use the htc stock rom for this, for simplicity)

Mate, try HSPL3. It will work with your SPL (2.08.0000).
It smells like you have a bad flash, maybe your ROM image corrupt in download or in the transfer process.. It does not change the things, to fix it you have to "erease your NAND".
I told you to flash a stock Rom from SD to see if the error stops. If it stops, then you will have to install HSPL again, because it is ereased each time you flash a stock ROM from SDCard.
Then, the TASK29 process is the more important thing, because it will "erease" your NAND and will prepare the NAND blocks for the new flash.
And the CustomROM flash complete the process.
I hope it helps.
EDIT: Fell free only to install HSPL3 (2nd post of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433) and do a TASK29 (this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644781) before installing again your CustomROM. Those 3 steps are the important ones!
**DO NOT FORGET TO DOWNLOAD YOUR CUSTOMROM AGAIN, BECAUSE IT COULD BE A DOWNLOAD CORRUPTION PROBLEM, OK?

right there has been some developments, HSPL3 has done something an the phoe is now turning on and off, so ill try and download the stock ROM now
if spl says 2.08.0000 then you have chosen teh wrong option in hspl3, you should have chosen 2.08.hspl.
.0000 is stock.
You do not need spl 1.42. to apply hspl, that is old info, hspl2 or hspl3 should work fine.

Man, if your phone is turning on and off it could be the uncharged battery.
Try charging your battery for about 1 hour before trying to reflash - do it with the phone turned off.
Again: Use HSPL2 or 3. Select 2.08.HSPL from the menu. And then TASK29..............
Thanks again guys its getting late so ill just leave the phone charging and get back to it after work tomorrow evening, again thanks for your assistance, still not there yet but hopefully by tomorrow evening the problem will be rectified.

At last i have managed to solve the problem, basically i just extracted a stock ROM onto my micro SD card which was in my laptop,put SD card back in phone,went to bootloader, done the task 29, tried to flash Energy ROM 21911 Aug 1st update but having tried several times it was giving me an error message so last throw of the dice as it were i flashed the other Energy build 23569 and it worked, you;ve no idea how relieved i am i kept thining id have to leave the phone into repair which would cost an arm and a leg but thanks to the good people on here in particular digao100nocao and samsamuel and the search function was useful too i have solved the problem and ill ensure i always do a hard reset any time im flashing again as i believe that was what probably caused the ROM not to flash properly the first time (i never bothered doing a hard reset previously)
Virtual beers to everyone much obliged folks and if i can be of asisstance to anyone myself on here i will.

Flashing the original stock ROM over SD will remove HSPL, will bring your radio on the version who is integrated in stock ROM and brings you back on stock settings.
So the only thing you need to do is flashing over SD
thanks alot!

1) Download the correct Stock ROM from the HTC Webpage by using your S/N. (you will get a RUU_Leo_xxx_x.XX.xxx.x_Radio_xx.xx.xx.xU_x.xx.xx.x_LEO_Ship file.)
2) Right click on the RUU_Leo_xxx_x.XX.xxx.x_Radio_xx.xx.xx.xU_x.xx.xx.x_LEO_Ship file and select extract with 7Zip/WinZip
3) Prepared your SD-card (use a 2 or 4GB SD no bigger) and format it by FAT32
4)Take the "RUU_signed.nbh" from it and copy it to SD card.
5) Rename the "RUU_signed.nbh" to "leoimg.nbh"
6) Reset the device while pressing the volume down button
7) Follow the instructions mention on your screen
i've done that. worked so far to flashed my HD2 without errors.
but after i come to home screen my HD2 acts like someone's permanently pressing VOL(-). don't matter what i press or do. i tried a lot of different ROMs, flashing by cable or with SDcard, task29, diff. radio, flash hspl new. all that.
i'm going crazy 'bout that :'(
any idea what i could do?
thanks!

Get start to give us some more device information.
- witch Rom version do you have now?
- Radio version?
- SPL/HSPL version?
i tried to flash the latest official HTC ROM: "HTC_HD2_5CRUU_Leo_S_HTC_GER_3.14.407.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship" to get shure its no ROM problem.
Radio i had on my HD2 was: Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14 witch worked well for the last 3 months!
HSPL is: 2.08HSPL
i also had to say that before that i flashed gingerbread on NAND. working fine (exept battery drain and the default known ROM problems
an there i had also a VOL (-) problem (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906881)
because of that i wanted to change back to WM.
and thats the state know!
i first thought my bad usb-connector causes flash problem (i found 2 bad made conntacts under the microscope), thats why i flashed wia SD now.

First of all remove your HSPL; HSPL and stock ROM 3.14 isn't compatible and create lot of issues/problems.
allready done (by flashing via SD) ?!
as written here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623402
for me it looks like WM is missing a sound file or something like that, and thats why it permanetly switch down VOL.
because i get a "file missing" windows for a few ms, but there is no concret file name so i don't now really whats missing
is this possible?
i solved it!
I've got no idea why but its working!
I started the SD update process once more (the third time now
(nothing changed!)
what I've done is i waited after reboot till it locked it selves (screen black)
but i think that made no difference
probleme there again
once more bad news.......tomorrow mornig my HD2 is going crazy again :'(
actual state: my VOL(-) button isn't working.
so i think the real problem was my (know) defect VOL (-) button.
sometimes working sometimes not....

My HD2 is a brick now... after trying to flash a stock ROM :-(

Hi,
After months and months of installing custom ROMs, and I even ran Android for few months, I need to take it to service (I broke the screen).
I have tried (not successfully) to install SPL on it using HSPL3 (info got from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477). After I have opened HSPL3 and clicked first "Next" button, few seconds later it has generated an error. The phone remained in the 4 color screen showing me the HSPL version I have (SPL-1.42.HSPL XE). From here nothing works (hard reset doesn work, it takes to same screen).
PLEASE help. Nothing I read helped. Phone is unusable now.
Thank you in advance.
PS: I admit I am doing something wrong (since I can not fix it any more)...
[LE: I have copied "RUU_signed.nbh" renamed it, opened Bootloader and I was able to install SPL-1.42.0000. But now I am still stuck in same 4 color screen in the beginning... Hard Reset nor Soft reset do not work.]
Try to star in bootloader mode (vol down + power button), connect usb cable and install HSPL 2.08:

Install stock rom from sd card:
Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button.
One more info your sd card has to be a normal one (1G or 2G) not HC
and after that reinstall hspl let me know if it was working

I remember someone here few months back also accidentally flashed SPL which give similar error (Stuck at OSPL which you cant flash HSPL due to unsupported version. Means you are stuck with SPL which was not intended for your region/product code). If im not mistaken, you may need to try and flash various version of stock roms with different bundled SPLs (steps to lower version). Meaning, the goal is to slowly step down towards the supported SPL version so that you can flash HSPL and then finally use the right Stock ROM to get your original (out of the box) SPL.
Anyone, please correct me if im wrong. Good luck mate.

Yep, it seems this is the problem.
Find the first of the stock roms for the country the phone is locked to and flash it.
But try to flash the complete rom and not only the radio.
Try this older rom:

What you need to do is go to HTC's website, for your area, and try and download ROMs with your phone's serial number. This will ensure that you are only allowed to download a ROM that is allowed on your phone. If you get an invalid message, then you need to try another ROM.
You may have a operator locked phone - you can only flash a O2, Vodafone, T-Mobile, etc ROM.
More ROMS
Just in case you need it, here's an absolutely HUGE collection of original shipped ROMs for the Leo.

Wish I could... If I enter the serial and try to download I always get the message "not available".

Thanks for your replies. However, I was able to fix it... by mistake.
After seeing that nothing works I connected the phone while it was showing that screen (4 colors) and I have flashed the stock ROM mentioned by me in previous posts using the flashing tool inside the package. Even if the main condition was to have it sync-ed, I have tried anyway and it worked (it is not sync-ed unless it boots up first).
Now it is functional again and ready for service.
Happy ending eventually.
thanks for link of roms btw how i now what rom is mine my phone is brand not from some network orange t mobile etc....

[Q] Plain White Screen

Hey guys, I had this problem like three weeks ago, then got my phone working but this time it won't. What's happening is that when I boot on it just goes to a blank white screen. I have 2.08.HSPL etc. It usually works after a few battery pulls/soft resets but this time it isn't. I've tried running Task 29's, but they're stuck at 0%.
Everything I try do gets stuck at 0%. Well I've tried running a Stock RUU (RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.0 7U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe) and that got stuck at 0% too. I tried downloading my stock ROM off the HTC site but it says "Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device." Why isn't it? My phones not a TMO HD2? It's a EU Leo bought from o2 Ireland. Can anybody link me to possibly the UK o2 stock ROM?
I downloaded a stock ROM from here but all that comes with the English WWE version is a .exe and not a .nbh.
I also flashed Artemis' custom ROM from SD card and that flashed etc. but when I tried to boot I get the white screen.
Any help appreciated, thanks.

Sorry to hear your HD2 is not working right now Skellyyy. I am with T-Mobile so I am not familiar with O2 but do they not have an official ROM on their website? Do you have to download your official ROM from HTC? I tried to pull up the o2 website but for some reason it would not let me pull it up. I went to www.o2.co.uk/ and I got this error message.
Error 502 - Bad Request
The server could not resolve your request for uri: http://www.o2.co.uk/

The exe is how you run the update utility for that ROM too by the way. Well atleast it is if you are using a computer to flash it. You have to right click on it and click explore to find tbe RUU file.
Also seeing as you have the EU HD2 why not just download the official update from the T-Mobile website and try it?
Yeah no I don't think they do. I looked on there and they hadn't got it. I think TMO have it on there website is because there's is a different phone then to the EU one.
Wouldn't downloading that ROM sort of brick my phone? Or would it not as the EU is compatible with all radio's?
I know the way you run the .exe then the RUU pops up, but HSPL won't flash anything. I've already tried. I know flashing from the SD works as I've flashed an Artemis ROM from it... but still had the screen.

Good point I have not thought about that. The hole thing about the TMOUS HD2 not being able to flash non TMOUS Radios probably does have something to do with it being there on thier website. This is an effort to keep people from getting confused and downloading the wrong ROM and bricking their phone.

No I don't think just downloading the ROM will brick your HD2, you have to flash it for it to even have a chance to brick it ha ha ha ha..........Just kidding I know what you meant, and no I do not think it will brick your pbone cause you have the EU HD2. You might get some preinstalled T-Mobile apps that you can not use but I think this would be the only side effect. But then again I was thinking you could flash it and then try to reflash your regular ROM as I know that the T-Mobile ROM should fix any issue you are haveing with SPL or the ROM. So maybe then you can get HSPL to flash sucessfully.

I also know if you flash the T-Mobile ROM via SD card it overwrites all, but I think this is the case with any SD card flash of any official ROM. The Artemis ROM is a custom ROM so if you are haveings SPL incompatibility issues it would not fix this as it would take an official ROM flashed via SD to fix that.

stuck at 0% usually means hspl is no longer there.
what does it say by 'spl' in bootloader?
If you have tried to flash a stock rom from sd card at all, , hspl will have gone EVEN IF THE FLASH DIDNT APPEAR TO HAPPEN, hspl will still have gone.
Your phone, if from o2, will always only ever take o2 stock roms, unless hspl is there. HTC website will only let you download o2 roms with that serial.
The .exe file the rom comes as is really a zip file, , right click and 'unzip here or extract here', or rename the file from .exe to .zip, , the file ruu_signed.nbh is inside there.
Artemis probably failed because of your radio and/or spl. tell us what it says in spl, and what rom you want to aim for, and we can take it from there.

Let's hope it works.

Yeah no, that happened me before and I was only had 2.08.0000 but I'm sure I have 2.08.HSPL now. As I've said, it's happened before, in which all I did was do a soft reset and that worked. Doesn't seem to work now though.
I'm pretty sure MAGLDR is wiped now anyway, as when I plug a USB in while off it doesn't boot up, but just goes to a red LED. Is this normal yeah?
Just tried flashing the ROM I mentioned... the little progress bar showed... then the phone rebooted. Now it's back to SPL.
I don't there's anything I can do now is there? :/
ok, hang on, do you have a tmous, or a regular hd2 from t mobile?
I have a EU Leo. I don't know where it's from as I bought it second hand. The guy said it was bought on o2 Ireland.
Hey SKellyyy not saying I don't beleive you but just do this to confirm you have a DU HD2. I know for positive I have a T-Mobile HD2 as I bought mine brand new from a T-Mobile store. On your HD2 touch Start/Settings/scroll down to About Phone/Hardware Information. This is what mine says.

Compare yours and let us know.
if the send key is white its regular, green its tmous. yours will be regular, from o2.which is why none of those roms you tried worked. only ONLY o2 roms will work unless hspl is there, anmd as soon as you flash any stock rom using sd card, it will remove hspl and then teh flash will fail, but hspl is already gone.
so, to get..
a winmo rom
bootloader - hspl4 - 2.08.hspl (3.03.hspl if you want a 3.14 rom) - bootloader - radio (if needed to update, see the rom thread) - bootloader - flash rom
to prep for nand android
bootloader - hspl4 - 2.08.hspl - bootloader - radio - bootloader - magldr - magldr usb flasher - flash CWM
bootloader -
Lol dude I'm pretty positive as it only has 512MB ROM and it has no T-mo on top and the buttons are white.
I've already tried to flash HSPL again but that was using the second version of the software (can't remember the name) and it failed. It recognized the phone and let me choose 2.08.HSPL but the progress bar just went and went (for over an hour).
Where will I get a stock o2 ROM as the HTC website says "this software isn't available for your device"?

thats more likely the comp, not the phone. all usual things, reinstall activesync/wmdc, dont use 64bit os if you can help it, firewalls off, etc etc etc. easiest first test is use a different pc.
It was fine flashing CWM on Friday. Currently can't use a different PC, will get one later and try again.
Thinking if I get this fixed, I'm selling it. Too much sh*t happens with it. It's maybe just my phone but this usually happens everyday and a few battery pulls/soft resets fixes it. That by itself is annoying, but this is even more annoying.
hspl is different than flashing roms / cwm.
flashing and sync will work through any old usb port, rarely need to turn off firewalls, whereas hspl is realllly choosy. gotta be a usb socket directly on the motherboard, hates 64bit win, times out before the phone has rebooted if you start it from winmo running, isnt all that happy if you have changed teh usb drivers for that particular port, say for mtty, or android, (each usb port has its own drivers associated with it, thats why swapping usb ports if it fails is always the first step, try them all)
I've tried three different PC's. Two desktops and one laptop, all plugged in to motherboard USB'a but none of them are installing HSPL. They're all just going up and down on the progress bar. Should I try HSPL4? I'm using the HSPL3 program.
No computers are running 64bit btw.
Is there anywhere I can just get the o2 ROM and try flash it?
Yea go to HTC website, support, pick phone, downloads, change dropdown to rom upgrades, operator name is in the title. You can also find them in the official roms thread in rom development section, and elsewhere in various threads.
Keep gour head up!

Sorry you are having so much trouble out of your HD2. The HD2 is a great device but they are quirky as hell. I sure you will get it fixed, keep your head up man. Oh and don't give up on the HD2 just yet cause just like King Authur's Excalibure, The HD2 is a thing of legend.
Excilcior
Yeah, I'm currently looking to get a new HD2. Decided.
It's just the bootloader doing my head in, found the official ROM I need, but it'll only flash from PC and it's stuck at 0%. I need it as a .nbh so I can install from SD card. Do you know how I can do that if the RUU I downloaded is a .exe?
If you got RUU in .exe file install WinRar right click on the RUU file and choose "open with WinRar" then extract the .nbh file
