Hi All,
I have a little problem with my HD2. It has bin there for quite some time but in the past i used Active sync as a workaround to flash my Phone.
But i want to update my radio now. And i'm on Android NAND and SD. So normaly you just flash your radio or winmo 6.5 rom trough HSPL.
But when i hold volume down and boot HSPL i get the tri color screen. But i get a Serial message in the botem of the screen. And it just stay's there.
I took a other SD card formatted it with FAT32 and placed the LEOIMG.nbh file on that location but still the same issue. Cant flash the radio or the wimo rom. Does anyone have a idea how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

Can you sync your phone with the computer? Otherwise you may have a bad USB port. Also, try a hard reset (backup first).

Well i dont sync my tel trough USB with android. I dont have wimo anymore.
And about the USB port i use that to put music on the SD card and make android backups. And i have not had issues.
The HSPL does not flash from USB it should pickup the image file on the SD card.

I suppose since you are not using WM, there is no option to change the USB port from syc to USB drive? Checking this setting would be the suggestion at this point. You are right, the USB port works.

I cant remember there was a need to change any option to flash from SD card with HSPL. The only thing you needed to do is place the image with the correct name.
Couple points.
1) When you put it in tri-color bootloader then connect to your PC, does it not say USB? If it does you can flash via RUU, if not we have a problem.
2) You cannot flash anything from a microSD above 8gb. If you are using a 16 or 32 then that is your problem, try an 8 and you will be fine.

On WM, you cannot flash via USB unless it is in activesync mode. Otherwise the computer just sees the device as a USB drive. I don't know about other OS.

Y i know. Dont think there is a way to flash in android. It might be possible to flash trough MGDLR with the right tools. But as far as i know there are only Android NAND flash tools not Wimo / Radio. But i will try the USB connection trough HSPL.
Nice the USB connection did work on my new PC! i had problems on a old one maybe thats why i forgot about that.
Win7 detected the flash device installed the drivers and after that i could use the CustomRUU to flash.
Still strange that the SD card did not work. But now i have a working solution Thanks guy's!!

For Nand Android, when you reboot, you will come to a white "fastboot" screen.
Press Power button while this screen is still on, and it will bring you to the CWR screen where you will be able to update from sdcard.

Hi everyone,
after 1 year expericing with evo 3d everything is ok,
but in the last month some problems are killing me.
1- when i put the usb connection to download image, after i get sd error and cant see any images from gallery. (files are visible with android assistan, visible after rebooting, tried different cables, different sd, the system doesnt sees anymore images of applications, maybe some refresh problem?)
2- when i turn off the screen and connected to wifi or datamobile, both turn off till i turn on the screen, its a very annoying problem...
3- also the music application cant find my mp3 folder with music.
4- when i open gmail at first it says "no data connection", even if i'm connected, and clicking refresh works. (but i have to click everytime!!!,,,,
5- today i got also a strange grey icon of the battery with an ? on it, first time ever seen it.
other miscellanea information:
the phone is all original, i'm using apex launcher instead of sense, there is a lot of free space on sd, the phone never fell on the floor, nor in the water. camera is working great and all other function, no lag in applications,,
i hope some of you great xda master can help me finding a solution,
thanks to all.

ps. does exist an application that cancel all unused application files in the sdcard? thanks again.
1 and 3 sound like a bad sd card or card reader in the phone. The rest sound like an OS bug, which a factory reset should hopefully clear up.

What do you mean "cancel?"
thanks for the answer,
i guess is the sd card, il try a factory reset. the new sd card that caused problem is a samsung 16 gb cas 6, i thoght it was good.
i mean wipe the garbage, like all those files left behind from applications uninstalled and no longer used.
thanks again.

Well, normally when you connect the USB cable and choose to connect the USB storage then the SD card becomes unavailable to the phone but the computer can then access it. Both the computer and the phone cannot access the SD card at the same time... I will spare you the technical reasons but you should know that this is normal. After you are done copying files with the computer then you must turn off this USB storage mode so the phone can access the SD card again and then it will see all your music and pictures again (all these are stored on your card by default).
This should all be fixed OK by a reboot of the phone though in any case. Are you sure you rebooted the phone completely? maybe you should try to remove the battery once?
If you've done all that then you can try to repair the SD card by taking it out of the phone and using micro sd to SDHC adapter and inserting it directly into a computer then using windows to run a chkdsk on it.
hi,
i've done all you said properly, you know the problem came out because there was a differente behavior than in the past.
i remove securely the phone from pc and then is not accessible,
i didn't tried to chdsk the sdcard i'll try, but it sounded strange to me because its brand new.
i also tried to contact htc , they said " try to reboot, or try to remove the battery and the sd and start the phone again, the problem wasnt gone.
thanks for the advice.

Well if it's just gotten corrupted then you can just reformat the sd card. You'll want to backup all your data first so if you can't do that from the USB connection to the PC then you'll need to insert it directly into a pc. Once you've formatted it you can put your backed up data back on the card and put it back in the phone and after a while it will find your mp3s again. If it's truly a bad sd card then the reformat won't help.
Do you have another sdcard? The one that came with the phone or any other? Try putting some mp3s and photos on it and then put that in your phone. If your phone recognizes the photos and mp3s then maybe your current sdcard is the problem. And can you tell the the format of your sdcard? Is it NTFS or exFAT or FAT32? If it is UHS-1 card there is a good chance that it is in exFAT. To make it work on Evo 3d, convert it to FAT32 .

Try and reboot again.
If still an issue, you can either lose your data and try and format it int he phone, or get an adaptor and plug it into a computer
I tried nothing works.. I think after I installed the update of clean master and reebooted and the problem apeared

If you connect it to a computer it may recognize. If you try more than one Operating System, and more than one Adapter, it may read the SD card. The phone is lease likely to recognize it if there is corruption.
As a last resort, you may have to format the SD card, but it will completely erase your data. To do that find the drive letter for it on the computer (usually F: ) and right click, select format, and leave everything but choose FAT32 as the filesystem.
You can just replace the SD card for now, and try to get a friend or a technician to help you recover it from that one.

hey i bought a card reader it reads the microsd card but i cant access it.. how can i backup my files?
Hi all,
First off, get the laughs out the way. Not posted on here before but used the forum a lot over the past year or so and i desperatley need someones help.
Long story short.
1) Currently i can only access CMR 6.0.3.2
2) I have no ROM available on int SD due to doing a system wipe while flashing Cyanogenmod 11 nightly which failed due to Status 7 error ( did not think this error would happen!)
3) My PC & Laptop will not recognise the S3 through USB despite all correct drivers being correct.
4) CMR will not let me mount the 8GB ext SD card. I have tried formatted to NTSC and Fat 32 and both not mounting, get the mount error message.
To sum it up, im fooked. I cannot access the int SD to drop a ROM on it and cannot access the Ext SD card through recovery which DOES have a ROM on it.
Do any ofyou fantastic people have any idea what i can do apart from dress it up nicely and make an ornament out of it?
Thanks!
Scott

Yes Scott. Do not make an ornament out of it!
Okay, serious .. download the ROM of your region from sammobile.com. Install Odin on your laptop. Boot your S3 in download mode. Flash the firmware from sammobile.com on your phone using Odin.

Hi Hamza,
Thanks for the reply. This is one of the problems noted above as that my laptop and PC will not recognise my S3 via USB. Tried different USB wires and installed various versions of the drivers, uninstalled, reinstalled etc It just will not connect be recognised.
Any other thoughts?

Sorry, I thought that your phone will get recognized when in Odin mode or download mode. I am afraid I am out of tricks for now, but let me search and get back to you in case I find anything
Hello Scott,
Can you enter in Download mode on phone?
"First shut down your device, then power on by simultaneously pressing the power button, home button and volume down key. Now you will see download mode and you will be asked if you want to cancel or continue. Press volume up to continue or volume down to cancel and reboot."
For that part you don't need connection to PC (yet).
If u succeed entering in download mode, then use the link that Hamza posted, to restore your device through Odin
HI!
Its no problem to get in to download mode but as the laptop and PC will not recognise my S3, neither does Odin.
The very 1st think i knew to do was to try and flash a stock ROM via Odin, but sadly can't
I've flashed ROM's a lot however it was a rookie mistake not to make a backup on this occasion that was accessable in this situation. My backups and ROMs are on the Ext SD card....
Ive searched and the only 2 outcomes i can see to resolve are to mount my Ext SD card, which i can't do on CMR or to make the handset visible o use Odin or to drop a ROM on the Int SD but again, can't.

We have 5 or 6 USB cables for our phones around here, and only 3 work for our S3 phones. Worth a try?
One more thing crossed my mind... In CWR, did you try "mount usb storage"? Under "mounts and storage" setting.
I had a similar problem few weeks ago, changed recovery and new recovery didn't want to read exFat card...

Hi,
Tried various USB cables and nada. Due to this Odin, Kies or anything will else will not recognise the handset and that's on a PC and a Laptop.
As for the Mass Storage in recovery, the version of CMR doesn't have that option otherwise i would have tried!
I was focusing more on trying to mount the Ext SD card on CMR. Is there any suggestions on this? Tried NTFS and Fat 32 with varying cluster sizes but not happening. Any other suggestions?

Fat32 should work, not sure about NTFS... Did u tried another card? Or removing battery and reinserting after SD card format?
Thanks for all the suggestions.... Had a family emergency.
Tried everything, i now think that there is a hardware issue with the phone as its a Code 43 error whenever i try to update the driver so the handset can talk to my PC. Seen as this option looks fooked i can only now and try to figure why the Ext SD wont mount on CMR and how to resolve it.
If i can;t then no option but to send it to the big warehouse in the Sky,
Just to exclude, did you tried another SD card?

Hey,
if i connect my phone with my PC, i can normaly see all files,...
But if i want to copy a file from my computer to my phone (internal or external sdcard) its stock at 0%. (in system and twrp)
After a while (2-4minutes) windows says, that was an error with the transfer. After these message, the phone reboot (twrp)
I tried to reinstall the right usb drivers, tried sideload and adb push but.
i googled the problem, but i cant find something like this.
sideload says something with "cant read comand"
and push says its done (800mb file after 10sec :/ ) but there is nothing on the device.
I dont know what the problem is. the phone is from 2012 but EVERYTHING else is working fine.
sorry for my english
