I am trying to go to the HTC support site to get the official 3.14 ROM for my HD2 which I need to return to tmobile because it keeps hard-freezing on me and I'm pretty sure it's hardware related, but if I return it with HSPL they will slam me, so I need the original SPL and everything on this,
when I get on HTC Support site I cannot, for the life of me, find where I can input my S/N and get the right ROM for my phone, anyone got a link?
No tmous roms on HTC site, go to T-Mobile.com instead.
lol, thanks
Hey Orangekid when you get the official ROM from T-Mobile downloaded would you mind dropping it in a e-mail to me, my e-mail address is in my profile info. I got me another laptop because I was stupid and busted the screen on my other one. Anyway everytime I enter my IMEI into the T-Mobile sight it says it does not recognize my IMEI. I had a copy of the stock ROM on my other computer just in case I ever needed it. And I don'feel like having to on the phone with T-Mobile costumer service for two hours like I did the last time I downloaded the ROM from T-Mobile, they had to generate a generic IMEI for me.

stock rom 1.66 for my phone in O2 network
Hi there.
I am looking for a stock rom 1.66 for my HTC HD2 which I have in O2 network. My device's number is: P/N:99HJY070-00. When I am trying to install another ROM there is information on my phone's display saying "not allow".
Can somebody please let me know where can I dowload it? Any links would be very helpful.
Any other advices are welcome here.
Many thanks
There is no 1.66 o2 rom, branded 1.66 roms are version 1.72, and you will find it on the HTC website.
If you want unbranded 1.66 you need hspl. Use hspl2, choose 1.66.hspl then flash the 1.66 over USB.
At the moment I don't have any soft on my phone, the main problem is that I can't connect my Phone to PC- my laptop doesn't see the phone,so I can't do anything.
I would install HSPL if it was possible, but at the moment I can't.
So that is why I am looking for a ROM which I could install by using memory card.
Any ideas?
When phone is in bootloader and you connect USB, if word serial changes to USB you can flash. Wmdc/activesync wont see it in bootloader, but rom flashing/hspl will still work.

Appologize for posting the thread twice... I wasn't sure if this goes to the Hermes or the Herald forum...
Hello All,
I recently got an ATT 8525 and I'm trying to use it with my T-Mobile (US) SIM. I was able to successfully unlock the SIM and CID with an util/rom I found on this site (I think the post was from Pof). And I also re-flashed the phone with the latest ROM available.
But after about 5-10mins of usage the signal dies and when I reboot it says No GSM. Looks like the Radio ROM gets corrupted. I tried just re-flashing the Radio ROM and that doesn't help either. It works for short while and again the signal dies.
And also, I'm unable to install any of the generic ROMs (Fantastic Mobiz, PVET 40005) Although I'm connected to Active Sync when I run the Step 1 (ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G3.exe), I get a ERROR [222] : DEVICE NOT RESPONDING. And when I run the step 2 directly (update_rom.bat) I get an cannot update itsutils.dll maybe in use error.
As you can tell I've been messing with phone a lot for a couple of days with no luck and my frustration level is kinda high
As of now here’s where I stand. I re-flashed the phone (Image: 3.62, Radio 1.50) and it’s on the “Tap the screen to set up your windows based mobile device” screen. I plan on leaving it on this screen until I can a good solution.
I would like to get rid of the ATT ROM and install one of those hybrid generic ROM that is not Carrier specific. Any help will be much appreciated. Share your ideas, I’m very experimental
Phone Details…
ATT 8525
HERM100
IPL: 1.04
SPL: 1.40.0 lipro
ok ur going all over the map here.. did u hardspl first? also pvet 40005 isnt a hermes rom.. um try hardspl first THEN flash to a new rom maybe once you successfully do that then try a new 3.62 rom.. i run austinsync buts its naked..just like i like my women. ha. but if ur looking for a full blown try fun_key's rom or blinkys.. these arent carrier dependent
hey man jakeypoo, Thanks for your reply. I kinda figured that I was all over the map.
Okay first appologize my ignorance. What is a HardSPL? I did a search on this forum and I found Hard-SPL-V7.zip. Is this a good version to use? Also when I run the exe, All options are grayed out except for "Force Using SSPL" and "Is it Hard-SPL". What do I select.
Thanks!
Hardspl v7 is the latest version out there, its the one for you to use so that you're safe from future mishaps.
I also have an 8525 on T-mobile... so no worries.
Hope this helps.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HardSPL
still problems (no gsm)
Thanks whistler4ever. That link was really a great help.
Here's what I did...
1. Installed the Hard SPL version 6
2. Installed the latest ATT ROM (ver 3.62 radio: 1.54) I had to do this because the radio on the phone was corrupt (says "no GSM" on the start screen) and couldn't install just the radio rom. kept giving connection errors.
3. Installed Schap's WM6 Pro 3.57 hoping this would get ride of the ATT ROM and my intial problem (no GSM) will go away.
Everything was fine for like 15 mins, then my phone just froze. I reboot the phone and sure enough the radio ROM was gone (no gsm). ;(
Running out of ideas.
1. Could this problem be because I'm using a TMobile SIM on a ATT's radio ROM?
2. Is the radio ROM specific to the phone type and provider(ATT, TMO..)? Is there a generic WM 6 radio rom? If yes, where can I find the latest version?
3. Any bright ideas?
Thanks again!
Current phone details...
ATT 8525
HERM100
IPL: 1.04
SPL: 2.10
ROM 3.62
Radio: no gsm
I was able to flash just the radio ROM - version 1.51. But again after a few hours the Radio got currupted. I also tried to follow the instruction ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems#problem5 ) to use the mtty.exe utility, but I don't get a USB prompt. I get Cmd prompt and if I still enter the password, it says invalid password. please help!!!
And how do I do the USB monitor capture? I could post more details that way. I'm using my girl friend's old razr now and it's painful!
I have used my t-mobile sim on AT&T rom's and other roms with no problem. I would try going back to a factory rom and then changing back to a cooked rom just to confirm its all a clean install. also, try downgrading your radio to a 1.47 or 1.48 (those have been proved pretty reliable across many cell providers).
Thanks Whistler. I'm going to start with the 1.48 version and if that doesn't work I'll try the 1.47 version. Not giving up on this.
I found 1.47 to work very well with t-mobile even when traveling...
Thanks Galaxys. I just installed the 1.47 radio. I have fully signal and the 'E', but I can't receive or make calls.
It almost looks like my TMO SIM is not compatible with the 8525. It always works for the first few minutes after an install and then stops working.
I'm very certain the phone is in good condition.
Should I try an older radio version.. like a 1.24 or something ?
Can I install just the tmobile radio rom?
I'm also going to install TNT 2.0 pro so I have the exact same set up as you and see if that makes a difference.
no luck!!!
wow... after all this time and effort still no luck. There's got to be something very basic that I'm not doing right. Senior members any help???
I have spent a lot of time reading the wiki pages and dead hermes thread. Tried out a lot of suggestions listed.

Sounds like your doing everything right, because your flashed rom, radio, and Edge network are all functional. Since only the GSM calls don't work, I would go back to Tmobile and get a a new Sim card installed (they should do this for nothing & test it while at the store).
Also, if U got this device on ebay your IMEI could be blocked. see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=322587
Try to flash the entire UK T-Mobile ROM, then remove the internet settings and install the correct CAB for T-Mobile.

I'm going try Junner2003 idea now. I'll keep everyone posted on my progress.
install stops at 11%
Hi Junner2003,
I was trying to istall the UK Tmo ROM you suggested and it stops always at 11%. I've had this problem with other ROMs as well (12%) but after a few tries the installatons goes past it, but real slow. Any ideas?

Hi Galaxys,
I don't think the IMEI is blocked. Or maybe it is, how do I find out? I don't have any of the symptons listed on the link you sent (don't hear the beeps or anything).
I originally had a T-Mobile wing. The LCD screen cracked (don't know how). And ofcourse TMo won't replace it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335346
I got 8525 from my company. It's almost new. Only used for a day on an AT&T SIM. This phone is free, and so I really don't have much to lose... so all out experimenting
Tried insalling from the micro card, even that stops while installing GSM. pissed!!! Why would the darn Radio not update???
this may sound stupid but if all else fails, why not...
my mda use to have signal then it would just disappear as well after 15 min or less..
turns out the sim card wasnt pressed in properly.. so i just put a piece of paper on top of the sim card to make it thicker and get the battery to press it down harder. and it solved all my problems...
just a suggestion..good luck

See this post here for a possible reason (and technical explanation/theory) for your device stalling during radio update. The fix suggestions at the bottom of the page may help you - in particular :
Try cooling the device down a bit before flashing as the PIC chip (where your radio ROM is held) may flash more reliably/easier when cool. Don't ask why - that's from it's datasheet ;-)
The paper on the SIM card is a good idea too to rule out dodgy SIM connection - Great idea r0mmel
Hey all,
Got my HD2 not too long ago after the first one I got was DOA(it wouldn't hold calls).
Anyway I just want to ask for some advice. I'm with Optus prepaid. Ive managed to setup my phone to send MMS and they are properly sending and receiving. The problem is, I cant use the internet. It wont connect. Anyone here got this working with optus?
Secondly, when I put the phone on loudspeaker, the screen wont turn off. The lock button is the hang up button so I cant just hit that. Is it possible to switch the screen off when in loudspeaker?
Will installing a cooked ROM unlock the extra RAM thats in the phone?
My phone software versions are as follows:
OS Version 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila Version 2.5.20121431.1
ROM Version 1.72.841.0(82124) WWE
Radio Version 2.04.51.22_2
If I want to change the ROM, can anyone suggest something which looks close to the original but has better performance(speed, battery wise) and does not have stability issues? I really want to ensure I do everything right and not brick my phone. I read something about installing wrong radios can brick the phone.
Does anyone know where I can dl this version of the Telstra ROM? Ive got the 1.49 one.
Currently wanting to install this. Energy.Leo.23673.Sense2.5.Cookie.DinikGlass.Jul.24
Would this ROM give any issues with my phone? Is it just a matter of install and away I go or will I be required to punch in a whole bunch of settings.
This is a messy post but any info would help greatly.
Thanks guys!

once you flash a custom rom, chances are it will contain teh standard connectionsetup which will find teh correct settings anyway.

try doublefinger tapping (two fingers, single tap, turns off, then i use home key to bring screen back on) on the callers image, this works for some roms, probably more likely to work once you change roms.

yes, assuming the rom is based on a tmous core, and you flash a matching radio.(which the rom would require anyway, its a two part process, a 576 enabled rom and a x.xx.50.x radio)
I read something about installing wrong radios can brick the phone.

Alright I got my hands on the same rom Ive got on my phone incase I break anything.
I just need a 1.42.000 spl thingy. Which rom do I need?
not sure what you mean, , , the rom you just found will include 1.42.0000
spl is part of all official roms, its not something you can download on its own. Only in official roms, or by using hspl.
I looked through as many posts as I could but maybe I'm not doing it right.
I flashed the android 2.2 ROM on my HTC HD2 from O2 but now I need to go back to windows 6.5 which was originally there. I dont have the official ROM and I would be very thankful if someone could send me the correct link to how to do it or how to get the official ROM.
Just a reminder I have an O2 HTC HD 2
Thanks to anyone and everyone who helps !
you didnt say which country, so i will assume UK.
first, run hspl.exe (the one you used when you installed hspl) but this time choose 2.08.0000
then
get 1.72 from htc website
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=960
phone into bootloader, connect usb, run the 1.72 rom.exe
If you didnt mean UK, go to teh htc website, choose your country, choose your phone, click support, downloads, change the dropdown from 'all' to 'rom updates', find teh one that says o2 and use that.
thanku
thanks bruv ... ill look into it !
i still have an issue that the phone keeps restarting or gets stuck in a while !
There's a 3.14 rom, you could try that, but it could also be faulty....
I updated my phone (HD2 T-mobile) via internet website and when I finished the updating process, the phone did not work at all.
I tried more than once to switch it on, but it didn't respond. I took the battery out and put it in again, but nothing happened.
When I connect the phone with the charger, the charger light doesn't become on.
It seems that the phone is dead!!!. What do you suggest to solve this problem? If you think it is a hardware problem, what is the name of this hardware
Tray update ROM again
It dose not Enter in bootload mode
How I can apdate rom from diffrent way
What rom did you flash? If it isn't a tmous rom then the phone is destroyed.
HD2-RUU_Leo_HTC_ARA_1.66.415.9_Radio_15.37.50.07U_2.10.50.08_2_Signed_LEO_Ship
This ROM's name
Please support us with a bit more of information.
You´ve got a T-Mobile device and flashed it with a different ROM for a HTC device without branding.
But what did you meant with "flash via Website"? How did you really flash (via Active Sync or via SD card)?
Did you install HSPL or at least SSPL first?
I Flash it via Active Sync
yes I Installed HSPL But sspl I didn't Install
Its dead,the radio in that rom has killed it.
Only options are JTAG or replace mainboard
Though it is strange that the filename says 2.10.50 for the radio version,since 1.66 roms usually come with ..51.. radios,which kill tmouses.
If it really is a ..50.. radio in a 1.66 rom then a tmous should boot but hang at splash, yet you say yours just won't start, so I suspect a typo in the filename. (Not your typo,I can see lots of references to that filename online.)
I am download this rom from HTC site

You said that you have a T-Mobile device, but you didn´t tell that it is the US version of it. Is it or do you have the European version?
If it is the USversion you really flashed the wrong Radio ROM.
For the European version it would be no problem

Sorry, it was not my idea but from b3ltazar. His thought was that your device might get no power to work.

Hi folks! Please help me! I killed tons of nerves because of this phone!
So here is my sad story. 1 Year ago i bought second hand HTC HD2. Seller told me that phone is locked to T-mobile(Not US one!! UK one!! Transaction was held in UK). After I got phone I rushed home to install Android and I was successful at this point. Then I bought a unlock code from ebay, so I Finally could make phone calls. Then I realized that the only way I can insert code is putting back WM 6.5. And here the worst part starts. I read hundreds of manuals but still was unsuccessful. I downloaded many official WM 6.5 ROM installers but they didn't flash my phone. They just got stuck at 0% and error pops up. I was trying it for a week and then I just raged and put phone to the shelf and was waiting til I get will power to start over again.
I hear that every phone needs its own ROM installer for particular region and operator but I couldn't find UK T-mobile ROM so used many others and it didn't help.
I also heard that by IMEI it is possible to find to what operator the phone is locked(just to check if seller didn't lie me) but again I didn't manage to do so.
Here is my IMEI 354120035834066
Please experts help me, little nooby, with this horrible situation.
thank you
Many people report that you can in fact put the code in under android after all,,,, perhaps its only earlier versions that couldn't. That being said you probably want to put a new one on since it (and magldr) will be old versions.
Anyway, all that hanging at 0% is because there is no hspl installed.
Plenty of places to get tmo stock rom,, go put
3.14 ruu Leo tmo uk
.....into Google. When I just did it the real htc site came up second.
Its not necessary, tho,,
Phone into bootloader,
connect USB
Use hspl4 to set 3.03.hspl
Return to bootloader
Flash any 3.14 rom USING USB,NOT SD CARD
Done.

Thank you, but always when I am trying yo install HSPL4 critical error comes up. I think it comes up because I have spl 2.1000000 which should be 2.08 I found information that in order to downgrade to 2.08 I need to flash official ROM. But when I am trying to do so it is always stuck on 0%...
I am so $%^& up ...
