[Q] original rom HD2? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys,
I installed an android rom a couple of weeks ago, and it worked fine.
until my touchscreen stopped working. so now I want to restore my
phone to its original state, so I can send it in for repair.
but which radio, rom and SPL do I need?
I couldn't find it in other threads, so I figured that I should begin a new one.
I hope that someone has an answer to my question.

Try to find out, using the serial number of your HD2, to download a ROM from htc.com support. Usually, only the ROMs which are good for your device will be available to download - get one of them (older or newer), flash it via SD card method, this will delete MAGLDR (if installed), replace any HSPL and re-install the Radio ROM which is correct for the ROM you just downloaded and flashed.
Some ROMs from some operators may not be available, many of those can be found on forums like xda-devs.

Thnx, I've got my spl and rom back to the original! but how do I find out which radio I need?
Jean-Piere

The radio will have flashed with the stock rom. stock roms always flash the radio too, whether usb or sd card.

Did you follow the suggestions and flash FROM THE SD CARD? If so, the correct radio was installed.

For an unbranded HD2, you go to www.htc.com. Select the country from where you bought your HD2 (it doesnt matter where you live/use). Then go to the support section. Phone type select HD2. Find the ROM Update (latest one is 3.14.xxx). You will be required to put your Serial Number to download the rom.
For a branded HD2, go to the carrier's website. You may be required to put your IMEI instead of Serial Number.
Good luck

nothing, I'm afraid. its dead. warranty? insurance?
if you bought it from amazon they are pretty good at returns (well in the UK at least)
I would call them up tell them you recieved the phone and its dead, i highly doubt they would be able to test it to find out that it could be user error
think thats your only chance

I have a Tmobile UK HD2 with the official ROM version 1.72......WWE.
I have installed HSPL3, and successfully flashed Radio 2.12.50.02_2 and I am about to experiment with a few custom Roms. Going from your post above, would I still be able to return to my original Official Tmobile rom should i decide to? I thought HSPL was to allow me flash both cooked and official roms? thanks for any advice you can give.

sure you can, you don't have a tmous so my previous post is not related to your phone.

flashin roms

hi im new to HTC HD2, i have the australian version which im guessing is the europe version, i was wondering when i try and install a rom wheather i have to change the name of the ruu_signed.nbh file, ive watched all the youtube videos i could and on some of them i have seen the named changed to LEO.... so im sort of stuck, any help would be appreciated cheers frank
only need to change name when using sd card to flash.
By 'australian version' do you mean telstra version? which isn't the euro version, but roms work the same.
1 - run hspl3
2 - choose 2.08.hspl (not 2.08.0000)
Once you have applied hspl, you dont need to do it again.
3 - flash your rom.
thanx champ, not sure if its a telstra version, ive bought an unlocked 1 from ebay, just doing all the research i can before it gets here, ive flashed fones before i had an LG Veiwty use to flash the **** out of it, ive downloaded about 6 roms im gunna go with the kumar rom 1st i think, ive got all the stuff i need HSPL ect, just wasnt sure about the rom name
Also what radio should i go with if it is a telstra version i know theres alot of choices any help appreciated cheers
Just do HSPL first. Then follow the instructions on the threads of the roms that you want to try. You'll never get lost mate. Goodluck to your flashing!
radios are hardware independant, doesnt matter which you flash UNLESS you happen to get a tmous (t mobile usa) hd2. You can tell if it is a tmous, because it says t mobile beneath the earpiece. If it DOES say t mobile there, then you need to be careful what radio you flash.
thanks guys for the respones and the encouragement, this forum is way better than some of the forums ive been on

[Q] Some help with ROM upgrade.

Hello,
New to the forum, and this is probably a noob question, but after trawling through loads of threads on here my head is spinning and i need some advice!
I decided to upgrade the ROM of my hd2 today as i am having problems with sending sms. i bought the phone second hand recently. It is sim unlocked and there is no carrier branding on the phone that i have noticed.
I tried to get a ROM from the htc site and got the not suitable message, long story short after speaking to htc i found my phone is from the Czech republic.
Now i have had a look at the ROM flashing tutorial and i am confident with doing it, however i am unsure about whether or not i need to use the Goldcard method?
Can i download the latest ROM from the UK HTC site and put it on my phone just using the Hardspl method here?
Thanks for any help offered, and sorry if this has been asked before, but i couldnt find an answer to my question.

new way to brick Mozart

So I installed DFT HSPL RSPL WP7F2 - version 2)
So I installed DFT HSPL/RPSL (WP7F2 - version 2) in order to install [DFT Freedom ROM] Mango 7720 MOZART Custom ROM and this ran fine. But I really wanted to [ROM][Official]RUU_Mozart_S_HTC_Europe_4.06.401.00_5.69.09_RELEAS E.exe .
I read on page 10 of that thread:

Successfully flashed this ROM on to an Orange UK mozart.

and thought I would try it as my phone is originally Orange UK Mozart. Big mistake!
My phone is now stuck at bootloader and every ROM I try to install fails.
Here is what it says at Bootloader:
PD67100 MFG SS-BC (4K)
SPL-1.9.2250.16(108820)
MicroP(LED) 0x07
TOUCH C1(v66)

So any ideas how I get myself out of this mess please?
have you tried flash RSPL/HSPL again ? then flash rom
unbricked
Thanks R3PUBL1K for you suggestion. Could have been a good idea.
In the meantime I redownloaded Ansar's NoDo Orange UK ROM. It was the original attempt to flash this ROM that had started my problems as it failed with a message that the ROM was corrupt. I tried to reflash this but again got an error message at only 4% loaded, but then to my suprise the phone booted into Phone 7 like ti should. However, I have no idea what ROM is installed now except that it is OS 7.0.7003.0
More research required before I flash the next ROM I think.
Hi
You can repair it with JTag. A Friend from me in germany do this.
Go to google and write: GSM TechNiX
you can send it to him, and he make your mozart unbricket..
GSM TechNiX - Excellent service

I can only recommend the service. After my problem (as described in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286524) I sent my phone to GSM TechNiX. They repaired it and sent it back at amazing speed. I could install the Mango Update (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18024790&posted=1#post18024790) without any problem.
Phone rescued using Goldcard
I have managed to repair my Mozart using a Goldcard - see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875991&page=6. I bought a pre-configured Goldcard from Rebel XTC and the USB Y-cable for HD7. I was able to flash the nbh file from the RUU_Mozart_S_HTC_Europe_5.01.401.04_5.71.09.02a_22 .51.50_RELEASE. I now have the 5.1SPL, OS 7.10.7720.68, firmware 2250.21.50104.401, radio 571.09.02a_22.51.50.21U.
I am happy with this ROM and will stick to it unless there is something compelling in a custom ROM.

did you try to flash back older version of Rom using Goldcard and Y cable? For ex: Currently is 5.01, flash back 4.06 or the older.
No, I did consider whether to flash to an official Nodo ROM then let Zune update me to the latest ROM, but I was just eager to get a fully working ROM again so flashed straight to the latest official Europe ROM with SPL5.1. I'd be reluctant to try anything else either as I have the phone set up and working now and don't want to risk jeopardising it.

I understand when you have just saved your phone. But Im sure that in a beautifull day your will flash back nodo then flash HSPL and kiss the custom Rom for "freedom phone".
hi, it's no way to downgrade the spl 5**.
you can wait for the way.

I thought as much - Goldcard will not downgrade SPL - so will not risk trying.

Will try this as soon as possible. One more thing i wanted to ask. I ve seen some place how to change the internal memory card of mozart. If by any chance we able to replace it by gold card, will that be able to downgrade? I know it sounds crazy but still is there a chance
By the way
happy new year to u n all........
Try flashing the SLSPL rom by ansar and then any rom 1.xx
ansar´s slspl rom is a europe rom so don´t work. is the phone operator branded ?
SLSPL doesn't work on my French Orange Mozart. I had to flash an Orange rom vers 1.XX to downgrade the SPL with the Y-cable solution.
