Need help downgrading to 1.42 SPL from 2.10 SPL - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Phone's bootloader info:
PB81120 SS-B3
SPL-2.10.0000 8G XE
Also, I think I have the 1024 Leo, bought from T-Mobile with the Green/Red call/hangup buttons.
Can anyone help me with the downgrade?
From the official HSPL thread I read
"It is possible to downgrade to this SPL, by just flashing to an Official ROM
with this SPL version."
Can someone help a noob with this process? I've never flashed b4!
Also, my phone currently won't load and is stuck on the "stick together screen"

cakinlife,
Start here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
Out of curiosity, why do you want to downgrade to 1.42 SPL?

After reading some guides, I think I need to downgrade to 1.42 in order to install HSPL don't I?
After that, I want to install android.
EDITTTTT
Hold up, I just continued reading some other stuff and found out I don't need to downgrade.
Problem is my phone gets stuck on the "Stick Together" screen. How do I install HSPL if I can't get phone to load?
Any tips? Thanks

That's correct. With the most recent HSPL4, you can go direct to 2.08.HSPL or 3.03 (2.08 if you wanna go Android)

Has this phone ever booted up? Have you flashed something previously which caused this condition? Radio?
In any case, I'm assuming you can get into bootloader, so you can just try running HSPL4 on your computer with your HD2 in bootloader mode-- that should allow you to install HSPL, and you can see if this rectifies the loading problem and then go from there. Alternatively, you can try starting totally from scratch by installing an appropriate factory/shipped ROM (with proper radio) from the microSD card (see the flashing thread for instructions). If this brings your phone back to a working baseline, then:
1)Flash HSPL
2)Flash your desired custom WinMo ROM and
3)install Android ROM on SD​
**OR**2)Flash your desired NAND Android ROM (first taking care of incidentals like MAGLDR, etc-- as per Android flashing instructions)​

HTH/ Good luck

Thanks RDionysus, I really appreciate all the info.
I'm going to try and go straight to HSPL4 from the bootloader.
I've actually never tried to flash anything, it just all of a sudden stopped booting on me which brought me to wanting to mod it
Going to try your suggestions, tytyty!

Hope it works out. Let us know!

So far I've installed HSPL and flashed the "NRG Engergize rom"
I'm still getting stuck on the bootup, now its stuck on the "NRG Energize" logo instead of the "Stick Together" logo.
I feel like I need to go back to stock to get that working baseline. How do I go about this step?
Should I go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=577717
and download all the files under "Leo 1.48 ROMs" ?

NONONONO!!!
If you have a tmous the ONLY stock roms you can flash are tmous roms from T-Mobile.com or the tmous section here on xda.
Astock rom that is not tmous will destroy your phone.
This includes every rom in that thread.

Whoa thank you so much for letting me know!
I downloaded the upgrade "T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_3.14.531.1"
Do I just bootloader the phone and run the upgrade?

Correct ...

Hey sam,
The official Tmobile rom is an .exe tho.
Its not the usual format .nbh
What should I do?

its actually an executable zip, not really a .exe.
If you rename the extension to .zip, it will open in whatever zip program you have installed, and you will see about 9 files inside, one of which is RUU_Signed.nbh, around 220meg size, its way the biggest file in there, you cant miss it,. , thats the rom(and radio and splash and spl), extract that and rename it, copy it to sd, and enter bootloader. The other files are the program that performs the flash over USB.

Thanks a mil, Im gonna try when i return from classes

So I reflashed the T-mobile rom with success however I still get stuck at the stick together screen even with a fresh install.
Anyone have any tips?

After reviewing the thread, I would consider a strong possibility that there is something wrong with the hardware. But before throwing in the towel, here's what I would try first:
REMOVE the SIM card and any SD card you have in the phone. Perform a hard reset. If you still get hung at the "stick together" screens then try...
RE-FLASH the stock (baseline) rom you obtained earlier, but this time first hook the phone up to your computer and perform a Task 29, then flash, and finally hard reset. Don't skip any steps, and leave out of the phone both your sim card and the microSD card (in case one of them are faulty). If, after the final hard-reset your phone manages to successfully boot up all the way, then insert the cards and see if everything is operational.
Good luck.

Cant Download
Hi
I can't download this rom.
I click in the link and it redirect me to another page, and I keep looping.
Now I'm in Costa Rica and maybe I need to be in USA to download this file.
Could someone upload the file to megaupload or rapidshare or something similar.
I will appreciate that

Where is this official leaked ROM you speak of for the pure?
Only ROMs I see out is 3rd party cooked ROMs. Not anywhere close to the quality of official ROMs. And only ROMs that I've seen out that makes a huge difference in anything is the ones with Manila 2.5. Which are horrible in the sense that MMS doesn't work on them, because there is no way of opening it unless you do a registry hack and add a cab for it to open in windows messaging client.
finally! i've been looking forward to this
Thanks
Hey. Thank you very much
Hi
Hello How can I change the band to the following:
Network Type : GSM
Band Frequency: GSM (900+1800+UMTS(2100+900)
Here is a little FYI for anyone interested. I am not sure why but, loading this rom did not replace the HardSPL. Being curious, I had to find out how I could use the stock SPL in this rom to go back to being completely stock. I am not sure if what I did is correct but it worked for me.
I extracted the spl.nbh and ruu_signed.nbh from the HTC download. I tried just running the spl.nbh by renaming it to TOPAIMG.nbh and copying it to the root of the SD. Everytime it would read the file and try to replace the spl it would fail and go back to the load screen. So, I relocked the spl using the spl relocker 1.33 (? I think that was the version). I then applied the spl.nbh (renamed to TOPAIMG.nbh) and it replaced the SPL with a version 1.78. It then looked like it was stuck at 9%. This is apparently some sort of interim SPL used to load the ruu_signed.nbh. After trying to determine what was going on for a little while I decided to put the ruu_signed.nbh (again renamed to TOPAIMG.nbh) on the SD and see what happens. Well, it loaded the original SPL, Radio and ROM and my Pure was 100% stock again.
I am sure there must be an easier way. Perhaps if I had just relocked the SPL with 1.33 and then ran the update it would have been fine. I just wanted to post this information so people know that you can get it back to 100% stock using this download from HTC.
PURE dialer canvas
Great find! Any chance that someone could / has extract(ed) the phone canvas out of this rom to see if it addresses the delay issues associated with the topaz and leo roms?

So that confirms you have to relock the spl before it will replace the hardspl with the original spl. That is good to know.
relocker replaces the spl to stock spl version 1.33
flashing again flashes the spl to 1.83

[Q] Stuck at bootloader when trying to flash stock rom

Like the title says, im just stuck at bootloader and instead of booting to the white screen it just stays on bootloader and says "SERIAL".
Ive googled, youtubed, and searched here, and many have the same problem, but i have yet to seen a solution to this.
I have tried android and many custom roms, and now im back on original ROM and everything works great. BUT i have HSPL in my phone and i dont want it for now.
It is a very easy procedure in the guides and should not be a problem, but please how can i get my LEOIMG.nbh to boot from my memorycard?
It is formated FAT32, and i have tried redownload the stock rom and unpacked it with winrar several times, but the result is always the same.
Is there some way to go around this? I Just wanna boot from the memorycard and restore my phone.
FYI, the restore is just for warranty issues.. I just want to be able to go back just to be on the safe side..
Then after that i can try the cooked roms all days
Thanks!
What size is the microSD card? As there has been reports of problems flashing from 16GB cards.
While in bootloader mode, you can plug in the microUSB and the 'Serial' should be replaced by 'USB'. This means that you can run the flashing from the computer (just ignore the requirement for ActiveSync).
Thanks for the quick reply!
I have a 8 GB memorycard.
Just before i read your post i inserted the usbcable and the screen on my htc says "USB".
But how do i uninstall HSPL from my PC in usbmode? Use customRUU and place LEOIMG.nbh in that folder?
If you install either the HTC Stock or your mobile provider's ROM (what ever you need for warranty requirements), they will flash your phone with SPL, ROM and RADIO.
These ROMs are avaiable from your mobile provider's website or via a link in the ROM Section.
Sounds great!
So i just run the original .exe file from my PC when my HTC HD2 is in bootloader screen in USB-mode, correct?
I have alreade flashed with original rom from PC when my phone was online. But then the HSPL did not go away even though my original rom was installed.
I could use alittle help too
when i try to update it stops at 4% tried to flash other energy roms with the same issue. don't know what todo to get past 4%

use the hspl.exe program to remove hspl just like you used it to apply it. just choose a stock spl instead of the hspl.
example, regular hd2, wants to go back to o2 stock everything.
run hspl2, choose 1.66.0000
run the o2 1.72.exe rom over usb.
all done.
if the rom doesn't flash its not the correct stock rom.

At first i used HSPL 3 to install 2.08.0000 HSPL.
But if i run that file again i only have the choice 2.08.0000.
I downloaded a previous version of HSPL, and there i could choose SPL 1.42.0000 wich was my original SPL version before the flash.
Is this a correct way to do this?
I am asking again because even though i now am at the original ROM and Original SPL version the Radio and Protokoll-version differs from the versions when i bought the telephone.
radio and protocol doesn't matter. yes you've done it right. so long as its a stock rom and the spl ends 0000 then it's fine.
Ok thanks!
Then everything is ok now and i am very happy for that, so thanks for all answers!
I can also add that i took my original SD-card (2GB) and put the LEOIMG.nbh on it.
The bootsequence then started ok when holding down volumebutton and power on.
But the result was exactly the same as it was when flashing to stock SPL with HSPL2 utility.
So the booting-problem was memorycard related.. So it seems that even some 8 gb memorymodules have problems.
Just thought you should know.

May have bricked My HD2..NEED ADVICE

here is the thing from the start.
a friend of mine bought a HD2 from hong-kong.
after installing a cab file for hebrew support the device wont go up.
hard reset to the device didnt help.
so i thought i should hspl the device and then flash the new nrg rom.
after i did hspl from version 1.66 i made a ROM FLASH BEFORE RADIO FLASH.
anyways the NRG system refused to go up then i made radio upadte and tried flash again to NRG rom but the flash keep stucking in the middle every time.
i got stucked with the error cable code in bootloader menu.
flashed from sd the newest ROM 3.14.405.2 still nothing changed still with error and now without the HSPL.
is there anything else i missed?
JUST TRIED TASK29..afte 4% stopped with messege not allowed
Welcome to the dark side,I did the same thing,I followed someones advice and flashed the official 3.14 from the SD card,now I am stuck at the bootloader with SPL 3.03.
Lots of peaople here have become bummers asking for a new HSPL but the smart guys seem to be turning a deaf ear.
try to flash earlier official rom e.g 1.66 rom not from sd card but with the pc

Holy h*t...
Are you freaking crazy?
You MUST NOT flash a original ROM from SD card... That will overwrite the hardspl...
If you guys follow the RTFM tradition before do something you don't understand, then that would not happen...
Now you have to wait until a new hardspl is released...
Maybe you should do a task 28/29 and flash 3.14 with RUU.
Before you guys do another stupid thing... Don't try a "task 2a".
Maybe it don't brick your device, but it also will not help.

What kind of HD2 sells HK? Is it an ordinary 512MB one?
Is this an original HTC? I know the chinese people does not like originals, they like to sell their own not working but nearly original looking phones...
Look at this Touch Diamond
What happens if you install the latest HSPL (2.08)?
Is it possible to flash a new SPL (does not matter if original or not)
What kind of Radio do you have actual on your Phone?

it is the orginal,he bought the phone with the wwe_asia 1.66 rom with english and chinese.
as i said tried to flash to 1.66 and again with new 3.16. but still getting not allowed.
task 28 55aa should format the device but some say its working only in case of hspl.
and since my phonw now got the 3.03 spl i guess its not possible.
correct me if im wrong but my only optios seems to be jtag which cost here in some labs about 150$...
Oh my god... What shoudl I do with you?...
I don't want to brick my HD2 to try something for you...
But... Did you know something about a "Goldcard" method?
If not I will help you to create one. On other phones the Goldcard allows to flash ROMs from another Provider... For example you have a Vodafone ROM and want a Stock HTC ROM... Normally this should not work. With a Goldcard it does...
Maybe you have an old microSD Card which we can use?!
Maybe we can also try to flash it with SSPL. Did you try this, too?
I never used SSPL, maybe it did not work in Bootloder mode, but we will se this when we try it

I know how it feel when the own phone is broken.
My first HD2 was overrun by a car... And it takes me 5 month to repair it, because I can't get a keypad ribbon...
And my second HD2 is not really broken... My girlfriend loaned it two weeks ago for one week. She still has is, because she like the Android OS on it and until now she won't give it back to me. Now I have to wait until my Desire HD arrives me
What should I say... Women...
But... PPP works very well for her operator (BASE) on Android, I've interruptions every 5 minutes and I can be lucky if I can reconnect after each disconnect
Back to topic...
@coneman23:
I'll hope you've flashed a 2.**.50 radio (for e.g. 2.12.50) not a 2.**.51.
I've noticed, that those radios do not work with some ROMs.
Crusoe86 redirected me here.
is there actually a way to fix this?
maybe with goldcard and official 1.48 rom?
Here I am...
You could try HSPL3 to revert back to an older SPL. Maybe that works...
And you can try older Stock ROMs like the 1.48 (from SD card (I use an old one when I flash my HD2, maybe thats is more compatible like newer SDHC cards)).
Andhopefully it replaces the new SPL.
But I would try the Goldcard method or try to boot SSPL from bootloader mode...
My girlfriend has my HD2 actually. I can't try anything

I dont know how to make a goldcard, so i cant make one.
I recommend that you try this (found in your thread).
If that does not work, we can make a Goldcard.
It is not very difficult, but this solution in your thread seems to be easier if it works.

[Q] Need some help ref: removong HSPL

My HD2 needs to go in for repair so I need to remove HSPL and flash a stock WinMo ROM ready for monday when it is getting collected.
I have followed the instructions here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623402 but the screen does not go grey, there is a very quick flash then it returns to the multicoloured screen and pressing the power button does nothing
Would someone be kind enough to enlighten me here as I have to sort this before Monday.
Cheers in advance

the quick flash is the bootloader looking for a valid file, and usually means one of a few things..
1 - the file isn't correctly named leoimg.nbh
2 - you simply renamed the htc_wwe_blahblah_.exe to leoimg.nbh instead of extracting ruu_signed.nbh and renaming THAT.
3 - you are using an sd card bigger than 4gb (not always the case, but most times bigger cards fail)
4 - the card is formatted FAT16 instead of FAT32
5 - hspl isn't installed after all and the ROM is not a match for the phones ROM/region lock. (what does the spl line say in bootloader?)
try those, see if it resolves it.
fix
go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433 and on the 4th post there is a zip at the bottom download unzip and run and just choose the non hspl
what hspl are you running?
Ok tried again and the bootloader screen looks like this
thats the right on but the last line about the touch is different i have 50 instead of 40
Any reason why it would be different?
Wanna make sure its dont right, dont want em sending it back and telling me I have hacked it
That's only a valid spl if you have a tmous,,,, if you have a regular hd2 then any spl starting 2 is wrong. Only tmous roms use 2.x spls.
Its a UK O2 phone mate, what have I done wrong then?

Well without scanning back through the thread, I'm guessing you had 2.08.hspl installed and ran hspl2 or 4, which will have defaulted to the opposite, namely 2.08.0000,
Or,you SD flashed a tmous stock rom, which didn't initially fail because hspl was installed, but then failed to continue to flash after the spl had changed because hspl was no longer there.
Fix - run hspl2 (hspl2 is the most usefull for us reg Leo users) and choose a matching spl to the rom version installed ...
Rom ....... spl
1.43 ....... 1.42.0000
1.66 ....... 1.66.0000
3.14 ....... 3.03.0000 -- you would need to use Hspl4 for this.
If the phone is buggered and wont boot, then it doesn't really matter which you choose, so long as it's one of those three.
(And in fact it probably wouldn't matter even if the rom and spl don't match,, they're only really interested in the spl, just nice to be cautious,would be a pain to have it sent back on a technicality)
Phone boots but I cant do anything with it due to the screen freeze which is why its going back to HTC.
Ok now it tells me I dont have SPL 1.42 on my phone and it refuses to flash a stock ROM :/
Guess I am screwed, new phone time

You're using the wrong hspl.exe, its v1 that requires 1.42 to work,,,try again.
Ok I think I got it
I should flash the latest ROM again aswell really as they asked me to do that when I rang em yesterday
All sorted and upgraded to the latest ROM ready to go back to HTC.
Cheers mate saved me a lot of heartache
Welcome...
while on this topic, im using Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14** via HSPL
now i wish to return to my stock (which i am pretty sure is this :
RUU_Leo_HTC_Asia_WWE_1.48.707.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe
(i copied down these details when i got my phone on the first day)
do i need to roll down to Radio 2.05.51.05_2 ?
i cant seem to get this ROM installed, whether its 1.42 SPL or 2.08 HSPL
i removed HSPL, and definitely not a TMOUS hd2 but cant install the stock rom

[Q] Problem moving back to WinMo6.5 after Andriod

I've searched about trying to fix this on my own, but i have a feeling i may have caused more of a problem.
so trying to move back from android with a HSPL, i managed to install the original rom, but couldn't get rid of the CotullaHSPL when i flashed the new via USB.
so i looked for a Radio fix and ended up using the RUU_SIGNED.nbh radio from the same pack i used to install the rom
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
Radio i am on now is the SPL-3.03.000 XE.
So after i installed it it says "software update failed, please try again."
attempted to try boot and keeps saying the same thing. Went into MAGDLR to try and reinstall the same Radio again after a soft reset and it comes up with 00028002 with NOT ALLOWED underneath this error number.
i attempted to reinstall is the rom, but not it just keeps stopping and telling me i cannot.
Any help on this would be amazing, not sure whether i should try a task28/29 or whether there is a simple fix to this problem.
i didn't install the rom off the SD card, but i did install the Radio off the SD card.
it needs to go back to the original rom so i can claim warranty because of the touchscreen!
Thanks guys and i hope this was enough detail for someone to step in and help me and maybe someone else at the same time!

hspl thread, post 1, hspl can only be removed by flashing stock rom from SD card or by using the hspl.exe utility.
so i looked for a Radio fix and ended up using the RUU_SIGNED.nbh radio from the same pack i used to install the rom

that's the whole rom radio and spl, not just a radio. It will have flashed the radio when you did the USB flash.
Radio i am on now is the SPL-3.03.000 XE.

that's not a radio, that's spl 3.03.0000 which goes with 3.14 roms.
So after i installed it it says "software update failed, please try again."

the leoimg.nbh you mentioned can't be from the rom you posted. I'm gonna assume (because the outcome would be what you have now) that you flashed a stock 3.14 rom from SD, and step 1 is hspl being replaced by the stock spl for that rom, , in this case 3.03.0000,, then the phone reboots to start the flash, but because hspl has gone only the stock roms that match your phone will work, hence getting flash failed.

can't flash from magldr, I assume you mean bootloader,, coloured stripey screen.

because its the wrong rom and there's no hspl to bypass the check.

yes, get correct stock rom, flash it from SD, done.
i didn't install the rom off the SD card, but i did install the Radio off the SD card.

Correct stock rom. Must match country and provider, example mines from o2 UK, so only o2 UK stock roms can be used.
The rom you posted the name of, see it says "HTC wwe" well the HTC bit means it's unbranded,example bought from carphone warehouse. If your phone came from o2, it would say o2 wwe
Oh and forget about the radio, it comes with the rom.
Bit off topic but once I've flashed MAGDLR can I ever go back to stock WinMO 6.5. I f'ed up and didn't SIM unlock my phone before I started hacking it up ( Hard SPL & MAGDLR)

figured that would be the course of action. Any particular stock TMOUS firmware I should flash.
Boy I sold my first HD2 about this time last year, just got a new one yesterday. And I gotta say WOW, this device has just gone crazy DEVn since the last time i owned it. Crazy things.
Doesn't matter, 2.10, 2.13 and 3.14 are the release versions.
