(UPDATED)
How do i remove hspl ive tried installing an offical rom from the SD card but i still boot into this screen ????

Try this........
Power off the phone (make sure your battery is over 50%)
Turn on while holding the vol. down button.
You should be at bootloader (three colour screen)
If you have HSPL installed you should see "cotulla" and "HSPL" on the bootloader somewhere.
If youve been flashing official roms though this may have uninstalled HSPL.
I couldnt get the screenshots you linked to...
You can attach image files using the "manage attachments" button down under the text entry area.. (i think)
Id suggest trying to flash a stock/official rom just now until you get up and running.
With the phone at bootloader you should see the word "serial" at the bottom of the screen....
Connect via USB and wait for "serial" to change to "USB", this could take a few minutes.......
When you see "usb" flash the ROM from your pc......
You should make sure that you have the correct ROM for your phone, go to the HTC site and pump in your serial number.
If you still have problems after this then post back here with any error messages you might get...
Hope that helps.....

Thanks for the reply, for the link you need to add (http ://) sorry i should have mentioned that
but i just finished doing what you told be and it finished installing. it had the HTC logo on phone with loading bar as on PC screen no errors :S but im still stuck on the tri colour screen

I originally had android booted onto this mobile but the 3G was not working so i tried installing the HTC wm 6.5 rom that I downloaded from the HTC website but it would not get out of the tri colour screen after i installed it.
So i though it may have been the hardspl its self so i updated the SLP from 2.05 to the 3.03 one im currently on but it does the same thing

Hmm ok...
So the flash finished all the wasy to 100% and there were no error messages..
then the phone rebooted and went to bootloader (3 colours)...??
Restarting the phone just keeps returning you to bootloader??
Try turning off then back on while holding down both volume buttons and see what happens.
Which model of HD2 do you have and which ROM did you flash??

Yes thats correct.
When i turn the device on wile holding vol up-down i get a grey screen to
"This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. press vol up to restore or press any other keys to cancel"
and im not sure what HTC HD2 i have..
Model: T8585 ?

I flashed the latest rom from the HTC website using the S/N
"RUU_Leo_S_HKCSL_WWE_3.14.831.3_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship"

Okay, get to that screen and press volume up to continue, this will perform a hard reset which is recommended after a flash, your device should then boot up, may take a few minutes as its the first time..........

ok, It finished in like less then 10sec but there was not skips did from 1% - 100% smoothly and says "Restore....Completed Press VolUp to boot"
So i pressed volume up and once again stuck on the tri colour screen
any more suggestions or is my phone dead?

Hmmm
Phones not bricked because 95% of the time if you can get to bootloader the problem can be fixed........
I have the feeling this is something obvious that Im not picking up on.
Chances are someone else will see this and point out the obvious but at the minute I cant think why it might be doing that......
You could try flashing the ROM from SD card.
Rename the file on your PC to "leoimg.nbh" and put it on a 2gb/4gb sd card, turn the phone off, put the card in, turn on and it should flash........
Like I said, i dont think your phone is dead, I think Im missing something obvious....

its weird because i can install roms, hardspl's and all that stuff it knows the phone is there and installs them but for some reason it never gets passes the hardspl stage.. on each boot.
it accually boots into the tri colour screen in a split second of turning the phone on

Its a longshot but is there any possibility that your volume down button is stuck in the pressed position.........

yeah i have installed off the SD card already. that took awhile but it says everything is ok and installsion has completed.
same problem though once i restart tri-coloured screen pops up.

Im afraid Im not sure about this one...........
I'll keep thinking and let you know if anything occurs to me.....
Im sure someone else will chip in at some point and point out the issue though.

alright no worries thanks for the help and time hopefully someone knows what the problem is.
Maybe if i uninstall the Hardspl? might totally wreck it and 100% brick my phone if it fails but I think its the only option ill have left soon

uninstalling hspl shouldnt cause any harm........
I didnt realise you had HSPL installed, I take it you instaled that after flashing the stock rom??
If you have HSPL installed......
Try to install a custom rom, ie an energy rom, just as an experiment........

dunno if youve seen the images yet conan, but unless its changed since, the OP has 3.03.0000
also, if he has magldr installed ( i didnt see it mentioned, but..) when you hard reset it takes just a few seconds, because it is only hard resetting magldr (at least thats my understanding, and would offer a reason why hard reset is so quick)
I suspect incorrect 3,14 flash, which didnt complete so its returning to bootloader,
so, OP, bootloader - hspl4 - 3.03.hspl - flash your 3.13 rom again, over usb.

ok thanks ill try that right now, also yes magldr was installed for android but i thought I got rid of it once i rebooted the offical HTC rom.
If this works im donating $20 to you right away no joke .. ive been trying to fix for 13hours straight

sd card flash, right?
Step 1 of the flash is the spl gets overwritten by the one in the leoing.nbh rom (3.03.0000 in this case) and then the phone reboots, and starts to flash , , splashscreen (where magldr is), radio, rom.
BUT, the phone wont allow the flash to start because hspl is now gone, so it fails CID checks and stops, so doesn't remove magldr, radio, rom, nothing, it just stops. Further attempts at flashing fail because you teh user haven't notived the spl change, you assume the whole flash failed, and that hspl is still there.
You shouldnt be able to get that far normaly, it would fail before it even starts, on a stock spl, except that hspl was there, so the flash was allowed to begin.

Ok, so its on SPL-3.03.HSPL now then I installed the latest HTC offical rom with USB but still no go
also if it is resetting magldr how come it doesent load up like it used to after a reset

Help! Cooked Rom, after flashed ROM device ever reboots

Hallo I have a big Problem,
I cooked a ROM and flashed it on my MDA Vario 2. After Reset my device starts to boot an then it went out and starts again, ever and ever. Nothing else happens.
I tryed to go into Boot-Mode (left "OK" + "Power" + Stick Reset) but nothing happens.
What can I do, please help me
Swith your device off. Then go into bootloader mode (left "OK" + "Power" + Stick Reset(hold it))
Hey Ghz,
I did this but without any effect. The device was out, then I tried to go in bootloader mode (I did hold the two buttons and the Stick) but it went not in boot-mode. It starts again and again. I only can stop it by taking off the battery.
Have you try put in your charging/USB cable without installing the battery? After that try go get in bootloader mode.
I but the USB cable in (without battery). The LED went red. Then I made the Reset and tried to get in boot but nothing happens. Then I Put battery in. LED went orange. Then I tried the bootmode. But the device only tried aigain to boot again and again. I'm getting stupid with this thing. I can't get into bootmode.
When you say that "it boots over and over", how far is it getting in the boot process? What is the last screen that loads before it starts to boot again?
Also, have you tried reflashing with a known working ROM using SD Card method?
What version of SPL was on the device when you flashed this ROM?
Was the ROM you created an OS-only ROM or was there more? If there was more, then what else?
It starts booting. All numbers appear (at the bottem). Then, when normaly the "HTC" animation would start, it breakes and starts again.
It was an OS-Rom (3.61) with several other programms (I exactly don't know jet). The SPL was 1.04 I think (If that is possible).
I cooked the ROM and I forgot to add two other boot-screens I think. Because it breaks when the first boot-screen should appear (I think).
Flashing with SD Card was also without any effect. I think it breaks to early to boot from SD (Or may it be, because I can not enter the boot-screen?)
Sorry my erglish is not the best

Don't worry about your English - it is very good.
Even if you did not put splash screens in your ROM, it would not be a problem, because it would just keep the ones that were already on the device.
I know that his does not help you, but it would have helped you to flash HardSPL, because it sounds like you *may* have corrupted the IPL or SPL, since you cannot put the phone into bootloader mode and it is not getting past the bootloader at startup. Unfortunately, I do not know a way to fix this. HardSPL would have prevented this, because it protects the bootloaders from overwriting. I wish I had better news. Maybe someone else can help...

[Q] Is my HD2 phone dead? (after flashing ROM)

Please Can someone help me, I had a friend help me flash my HD2 because I had a dutch version ROM and I really didn't know how to do it myself and it seem working fine not until I got a call but couldn't answer it and the phone got stuck. Each time I reset it wouldn't help, it will gets stuck at htc and won't load up. I did a hard reset and it loaded up but when I tried calling it got stuck again. This morning I tried to flash a new ROM from CleanEX DsE Core ROM Series (6.5.X ManiMore) every thing seems going on well during synchronization from computer. it showed the last ROM being (Miri_HD2_WM65_21914_Sense25_V18.0). But now the phone wont get to a complete start up. I cant hard reset it any more since it keep continuing from the same htc screen spot before battery removal, not giving me the chance to hard reset from power down mode. when I soft reset it once, it got to the point when it ask for my pin code but it went back to the htc screen mode again before completion. now I cant do any thing just staring at the htc screen.
He first flashed the ROM with HSPL. I saw something like SPL 1.42 SPL 1.42.HSPL on the reset screen. Is this suppose to be the correct HSPL number? and how can I go about this, I need all the help please.
Hold the Volume-Down button and switch on. This should get you to the Bootloader Mode.
Run Task29 to clear any latent info on your phone.
Flash the Radio ROM (the Custom ROM will specify which ones to select).
Flash the Custom ROM.
Please read the ROM's page to make sure that your phone will work with that ROM and Radio and all the instructions.

[Q] No bootloader after Task29

Hello!
It's insane, here is the description.
The android booted up just in safe mode.
The winmo had faults, so I've decided to change the whole system, with task 29.
At first I've changed my radio to the 2_12_50_02_2 version.
Than I've started the task29, the one what do not needs the radio.
Thats all I've done, and now I cannot reach the boot loader, or anything else.
The vol up and start trick is not working.
Please give me a solution, I need this phone working, I need a solution, and I appreciate every tip.
Thank You in advance!!!!
its volume down, not up.
same problem for me here
i did task29 and it was all fine, 100% reached and then the HD2 did a reboot, stopping at the black screen with the white HTC logo.
then as always i removed the battery and put it in again, holding vol down und clicking power-up once.
nothing happend... the phone vibrated once and got back to the HTC logo.
NO bootloader!
please do not tell me i'm too dumb to enter bootloader, i've been flashing custom roms for 6 months now!
my latest rom was Goatrip 6.0 and HSLP is 2.08
yesterday when goa6 was still "alive" the volume-down button worked fine, so the problem cant be some dust or dirt beneath the buttons.
edit: i've also tried flashing via SD card (clean FAT32 formatted 2gb card) the original stock rom 3.14 and a custom rom,
none of them is working either
every single hint of how i could solve this issue would be great!
hope to here from u guys
Remove the SD card and try again to go into BootLoader mode.
i have tried all methods and variations but i cant enter bootloader...
now i have found this thread:
--eeeeek cant post links --
its referring to the TP2 but i thought i would give it a try!
i've done this sketchy voldown+power+usbcable+batteryplugin thing but no result, even after 10 attempts :-(
Since you removed the battery, are all the pins straight?
those 5 (2 1 2) pins are in good shape
i cant post a link yet, ill send it to u via PM
posting links enabled:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-touch-pro-2/122134-task29-didnt-complete-cant-enter-bootloader.html
i got it!
my stepfather owns a HD2, too.
i plug mine into his docking station while i was on the phone with htc support... just because i was bored waiting in the queue.
after the phone call i tried once again to enter bootloader e voila => boooom 3 colour screen!
i dont know whats the reason for, but i flashed my custom rom as fast as i could and it works fine.
but even now i cant enter bootloader properly...for 10 times trying 2 times actually work!
in the WM Os its no problem, Vol-Down functionality is 100%
cant explain that to me,
i think u need some luck to get this issue solved
___EDIT___
now with my customrom i could easily enter the bootloader via software command
and therefore i downgraded HSPL to stock spl1.42.000.
after this i flashed 2.08.hspl again and NOW my bootloader is working as intended!
u see, once u can get into bootloader again, all your problems can be fixed.
without him, you're f*cked
greetings

HD2 Bricked - Empty white screen

Hi,
I have a problem with my HTC HD2, thing is that the phone it's not booting correctly, all i got when i power on the device, it's an emty white screen... without the green HTC letters.
I got installed a cooked ROM, BsB Beast 6.1, with radio 2.12.50.02_2, and i was running Android from SD when all this **** started, two weeks ago. The phone battery ran out while i was on Android, a couple of hours later... i got home and plugged the phone for charging. When i pressed the power button, the phone boots with that blank screen.
I can get into the bootloader, and it's showing this info (whitout the underscores):
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-1.42.HSPL XE
_____________0x05
_____________0x30
CotullaHSPL
I've tried many different things and none seems to do anything at all:
- First of all, i did a hard reset. The process ends OK but the phone stays doing the same
- Then, i tried to flash again the same ROM i was using. I was unable to do that by using CustomRUU and PC connection. The phone it's detected by the PC, and the bootloader screen shows that it's conneted by "USB". Then, i executed the CustomRUU app, following all the steps and, when the phone should start flashing the progress bar doesn't get past 0%, both the phone display and PC. After a few minutes, CustomRUU gives an error saying "timeout" connection. I've tried to do this from different USB ports and different PCs with the same result.
- After those fails, i tried to flash again the cooked rom from SDCARD. The process ends OK, saying "Update Complete". Then, i rebooted the phone but the blank screen remains the same way. That cooked ROM doesn't have radio.
- After that, i decided to flash a stock ROM. First, i tried to make a "Task 29" to the phone, but i got the same problem than with the cooked ROM. The progress bar doesn't get past 0%. With the stock ROM the problem was the same again. Then, i tried to flash the stock ROM from SDCARD. The process stops at X% saying 0018003 RADIO - FAIL. I've got this error each time i try to flash a ROM with radio or a radio itself.
- I was able to do a "task 29" by using MTTY, but nothing changes when i try to flash any ROM after that.
- i've tried to upgrade my HSPL, by using both HSPL2 and HSPL3. Both programs detects my version of HSPL, then the process starts and ends saying "Succesfully done" but nothing changes in my bootloader, it's still saying that i got 1.42.HSPL
Since i can get to the bootloader, i hope to have any chance to get this device back to life.
I've readed some posts here and within other forums, i've tried with many different cooked or stock ROMS but nothing works
I hope to find help here, thanks in advance and, sorry if my speaking it's not 100% correct
yet another "i was running android and...........now my phone won't boot".. thread. makes me glad i don't bother with android...tried it once and had to hard reset, never touched it since, heh.
for the sticking at 0%,and timeouts etc, try and always enter bootloader yourself, then wait for serial to become usb, and then run customruu. this way you can also visually confirm hspl is there(or not there, depending what you are doing) and it should cure certainly the timeouts.
if i were you, i'd concentrate on getting back to stock, and start over.(only skimmed your post, i'm mobile, so sorry if i say something you already did.)
get into bootloader, get rid of hspl if it s there,(run hspl2 and choose 1.66.0000) then back into bootloader(you should soon get used to holding vol down as each stage completes to reenter bootloader) then try flash your CORRECT stock rom via usb. if that fails try it using the sd card method.
Thanks for answering, samsamuel.
I haven't looked into the Android section for threads with the same problem i got, maybe i should have started that way
Each time I enter the bootloader, i'm doing as you've said (believe me... in these days i've become a "master" on pushing power button with vol. down )
I always wait for the bootloader to finish loading, then i plug the phone to my PC, wait again for "Serial" turns into "USB" and, then, start the flashing process.
I'll try to do what you said with HSPL2, to select 1.66.000. Each time i've tried with different HSPLs, i've selected 1.66.HSPL or 2.08.HSPL... so, i guess i should try with that.
I'll be updating this thread as soon as i got news.
/me edit
I must to say, that Android was running "fine" (some minor problems when trying to wake up the phone, but nothing critical apart from this disaster). By the record, i didn't have installed dual boot... the phone always boots into WinMo
Hi again,
I have tried to update my SPL to 1.66.000 without success, despite what HSPL2 says ("Succesfully done")
Any thought about this? I can't understand why those programs are saying "OK" but are doing nothing
thanks in advance
not seen it first hand but have read several threads where the update seems to work but nothing changes. not really sure as to cause or cure, sorry.
I wonder if is there a way to make HSPL2 / HSPL3 to leave traces or any log of what they are doing... in order to see why my phone is ignoring them
Little bump, looking for more help
Is this the right subforum to post this things?

[Q] [HELP] Problem with T-Mobile HD2 and Can't Flash any ROM

Good day everybody,
I'm sorry if I make it long to describe my problem, but would someone please help me in this because there is no place else to go to have my phone fixed
I have a T-Mobile HD2 where it has a problem and I can't fix it.
The problem starts from the early first days with starting the iGO Navigation program.
Whenever I start the iGO, the phone power off
at the beginning, I thought that the problem is from the navigation program.....but....
After that, it got bigger and whenever I start the phone and try to touch anything on the screen it hangs up and power off again.
Also, sometimes I have to wait more than 15 minutes to start the phone again, and also it power off as usual sometimes the phone got stick on the pink/white "Stick Together" Logo
I give the phone to my friend and he tried to fix but he couldn't
So he gave me the phone back always turning on to the bootloader (Tri-Color) screen.
I tried to HSPL it, at the beginning I couldn't because the "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM Driver" was not installed, and it took me forever to get it and get my phone ActiveSync. With windows 7.
Finally, I managed to select the SPL-2.08.0000 through HSPL3 and the situation changed back to the same old situation where my phone sometimes start and stick on the pink/white "Stick Together" Logo, an only twice boots up to windows and start everything normally, but whenever I turn on the camera it power off again
I tried yesterday to flash a new ROM, but I didn't succeed
Right now, the info at the bootloader is these:
PB81120 HX-B3
SPL-2.08.000 8G XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0X40
I hope to find a solution to my phone problem in here.
Would someone help me please in this problem
Best Regards,

would someone help me please
Does it still say SPL 2.08.0000 in the bootloader?
Well, then you don´t have HSPL and can´t flash another ROM than the original.
Maybe re-try to install 2.08.HSPL instead of SPL 2.08.0000.

yes it does, but I was able to select only this SPL when I used HSPL3, and I got the screen in my phone saying "We hacked it"
Anyhow, I will try to select the 2.08 HSPL again
Would you please specify more
thanks for your help
WoooooooooooW man, thanks brother you just made my day
I managed to flash it wth no problems, my phone comes back to life again
I didn't think flashing is very easy like this, I was afraid to brick my phone
thanks again for your help and support
Regards
Oh god, I'm trying on my friend phone now which has the same issue and I'm stuck on the HSPL3 where the phone always disconnect from USB, I know it by hearing the disconnect beep in windows, after that I got this error on HSPL3
The phone stays on bootloader (Tri-Color) screen, and shows USB but the truth is that the phone is already disconnected from the PC.
yesterday I was able to HSPL this phone but I selected SPL 2.08.0000 instead of 2.08 HSPL
I waited 10 mins and power up the phone and HSPL it without problem, but now another problem came out........... while the phone is flashing the new ROM, the status bar reaches only 29 % then the phone disconnected from USB by itself leaving me with ROM error [284]
Any help or hint please
I assume you run your PC with Windows 7?
When you start the second HD2 normally, is it seen in Windows Mobile Device Center?
If this is the case, the driver should be ok (it worked with your device, too).
Maybe try this: Disconnect the second HD2, put it manually into bootloader mode (turn off, then push volume down and power on simultaneously until multi-color screen appears), then re-connect it to the PC, USB should appear, then launch HSPL3.exe
Another simple trick is to try another USB port (definitely avoid hubs), or another USB cable.

Thanks brother for passing by again
Yes, I'm running windows 7
I had problems at the beginning to ActiveSync my phone because I couldn't get the phone to be discovered by my PC due to the "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM Driver" was not on my PC.
I managed to get the driver and downloaded Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1.
In the first phone, yes the WMDC 6.1 recognized the phone and I saw it connected at the program.
The other phone, I can't remember because I didn't open it! but I'm sure the phone was connected to the PC because I can see it under the connected USB devices.
Anyhow, I'm afraid that there is a problem with the phone hardware
The reason is because I charged the phone and left it for 30 mins, I tried to flash another ROM by CustomRUU.EXE and I succeeded.
but still when I turn on the phone, the phone get stuck on the first HTC logo screen
I also tried to flash the ROM from the sdCard and I succeeded but still same stuck problem
Also when I compared between the two phones when they boot up I noticed this;
- The first phone when booting it shows lines in red colors at the lower left corner of the screen.
- The second phone when booting shows nothing like this
Last thing I know is that the radio on the second phone is 2.08 and the first phone is 2.10
So I HSPL the leatest Radio whihc is (( Radio Leo 2.15.50.14 )) and still the same problem
Could anyone give me a hand on this problem
OK, so the first phone still running?
Can you put the second one into the bootloader mode and list what you see there?
Can you force a hard reset? What is the behavior of the device if you do so? While flashing (USB), did you try without SD card in (this sometimes makes problems), or even without SIM card, or even both cards taken out?
An HD2 which runs normally shows you some more more data in the lower left corner in the white HTC startup screen, incl. Radio ROM version. If there is nothing, it could be a hint that no ROM and/or no Radio ROM was flashed, eg. you got a bad flash.
Last, but not least, which ROM did you try to flash, the stock ROM?

PB1120 HX-B3
SPL-2.08 HSPL 8G XE
0X05
CotullaHSPL 0X40
(Which is the same as the first phone that's working)
- What's the Hard Rest, do you mean the small yellow button??
- Yes, I tried flashing the phone while connected to my PC through USB and I took out the SIM and sdCard.
- You are absolutely right, I know that normal HD2 shows 3 Red lines in the corner while starting up including the Radio version.
Before I flash the phone, somtimes those line appears while booting up and the phone starts normally into the stock Windows 6.5 Pro, but after opening applications or starting navigating in the menus it powers off.
After that, when I power on again, the phone was getting stuck on the T-Mobile whiet/pink logo "Stick Together" and no thing appears in the lower left corner.
What's confusing me right now is that: "athough I was successfully on flashing a new Radio and ROM, this phone is not showing anything while booting up except the HTC logo and stuck on it "
I'm thinking now to try the "T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_3.14.531.1" which is the leatest update for the HD2 from T-mobile website.
I will be very appreciated if someone can help me with this problem.
Thanks
Yeah, the "white screen of death", eg. stuck in the white bootscreen, is often a hint that the Radio ROM does not match/is incompatible.
As a matter of fact, if you have the 3.xx ROM on your device, it won´t work properly with 2.08.HSPL, maybe that´s the reason for your issues. You need SPL 3.03 with this ROM.
"Hard Reset" means the complete reset, deleting the memory (turn off device, push both vol. up and vol. down at the same time, then briefly the power on button, follow the on-screen instructions to reset the device). Please note that this won´t erase the SPL though, in case you´ve got the incompatible combination.
Flashing the stock ROM is a good guess, worth a try. Try it with the SD card method, this will erase HSPL, too, just in case this had a bad flash, too. Or, in case you had the 3.xx ROM with 2.08.HSPL, this will be corrected, too.
If this would work, you could start from scratch.

Thanks for the hints, but unfortunatly I still have ths same issue (screen of death)
Today, I was able to power up the phone twice with the new ROM and I checked the software information and I found out that the radio is already installed correctly which is (2.15.50.14) but when I turn the camera and took a picture, the phone freezes and power off aagain, after that I returnd to the screen of death again
I tried the method of hard reset, same problem.
I also flash my phone with the custom ROM from T-Mobile using the RRU.EXE, but still stuck on the screen of death after flashing
Anyhow, one new thing happend to me today before doing any of those steps, and I believe it happend after I flash the new radio
- Now, when I power up the phone it vibrate the normal start up vibration then it goes to the booting screen, after 5 secondes it gives me a 7 broken vibrations
- Some times it give me the 7 broken vibrations directly with the start up and the phone's screen stays black
- And some times it doesn't give me the 7 broken vibration
like the phone is giving me an error code
Anybody have an idea about this strange problem !!!!
Please note that flashing through USB won´t erase and replace a defective SPL. This only works if you use the SD card method.
Concerning the new discoveries:
Now that´s something completely new to me... never heard anything like this. Except maybe non-stop vibration phenomenons...
Maybe you could open a new thread with that very specific problem...
I still get the feeling that you´re getting bad flash results, but maybe we´ve got a worst case here: Defective hardware.
If you´ve already put the original stock ROM (incl. SPL) on the device, maybe the best choice is to send the critical unit to a service center.
Still, if not yet done, I´d try to flash the stock ROM via SD card, worth a try.

I can't find the stock "nbh" rom so i flash it from the sdCard
all what I have is the EXE file that has the whole thing to flash the phone through USB which I downloaded from T-Mobile website
Can you help me please in finding the t-mobile stock rom ???
Well, you have all you need!
You can actually extract the RUU.exe file.
Use any decompression software (WinRar, ZipIt, whatever) to extract the files, rename the nbh file to leoimg.nbh, put it onto the freshly formatted (FAT32) SD card, and there you go.

Aha, I didn't know that, thanks
Anyhow, I tried that and took me forever th flash this ROM
when I put the "LEOIMG.nbh" file into the memory card and started the booting at bootloader, everythings works smooth like I'm flashing a new ROM wheer I got the phone's screen showing:
LEOIMG.nbh -
RADIO_V2 -
RUST -
BOOTLOADER -
SPLASH1 -
OS -
CONFIGDATA -
So I assumed that the phones starts to flash the ROM normally, at the begenning it got stuck while flashing the RADIO where the status bar stuck almost on 25%. I had to rest the phone couple of times, then try to flash again.
I managed to flash the phone with the Stock T-Mobile ROM twice, but still when booting it get stuck on the "White Screen of Death"!!!!
The phone still sometimes giving me the strange 7 broken vibration when starting.
Any new ideas
Nah, I don´t have any ideas anymore.
There was a thread with some guys having the same phenomenon with the vibration pattern, but the problem was never solved.
Since you tried everything now, maybe you should send your device to a service center. And after you flashed the stock ROM, warranty won´t be void (except the time is over).

Thanks for all the information brother, and yes that what said to my friend, now it's time to use the warranty
what i think is going on is the RAM got defected, where sometime it can handel processing the data and that's why the phone sometimesstarts up normally,
and somtimes it can't because the RAM is turning into fully volatile all the time and can't process the data anymore.
That's the only thing came to my mind could describe this problem.
Thanks again and I wish they givemy friend a new phone
