my desire x is restarting itsellf randomly 3-4 times per day. i called htc india , they told me to go to nearest htc service station and reflash the rom which may be causing restarts. now the problem is i am nestled high in the himalayas and 300 kms from nearest service station. now i want to flash the stock rom myself without voiding warranty. note that i do not want custom rom but a stock rom. my software vetsion is 1.18.720.3.
plz tell a.step.by step process coz i.dnt want to.brick my phone
First, there is no RUU available for your software version no.
Second, reading the whole thing, I believe you are on stock ROM, no bootloader unlock and root.
The only thing you can try is boot to bootloader (press power + volume down) and select factory reset.
Based on past experience, the random reboot indicate motherboard problem which only hTC service centre can fix it.

so,do you mean i cnt flash my rom myself. and i have already done a factory reset tbrough settings.
wat is a bootloader. please elaborate.if it is different from normal factory reset
Yes, you can't flash ROM yourself because there is no stock ROM for your version. Only hTC has it.
Bootloader is like a bios on PC. You can reach it as I said above by shut down the phone while holding the volume down button.
Maybe it's the same as Factory Data reset thru settings but I'm not so sure as I always do a factory reset in bootloader. You can give it a try but I still feel your problem is hardware failure.
ok i will give it a shot today. is there any way to go back to 1.18.401.xx which came with my phone.
thnxx
which is which now your stock firmware ? 1.18.720.3 or 1.18.401.xx ? which is correct ?
Anyway.. it's getting late here almost 2.00 ... so I guess someone else will help you.. gdnite

i factory reset my phone through bootloader. i can see two more options - 1) fast boot 2) recovery.
pls tell me what these two do .new to such things
thnx a ton
After you factory reseted the phone, pull out the battery and reinsert it. Start your phone and if you don't encounter any reboots, you're fixed!

I'm search on google and in this forum not have some one face problem same as me please help me to fix this.
Any body please help me, I'm love it because now we can run both WM. and Android
Upppp waiting for your help
Did you try a long press of the reset-button?
You could try to put the original Stock Image from HTC onto the root-folder of your SD-Card, rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and Push Vol up + Vol down during start and follow the on-screen instructions if it works.
Otherwise use Search-Function in the forum.

Did you check to make sure your radio version was correct before flashing? This is probably the number one reason for bricking.
Check this thread it may help you if you did the flash properly:

i got same problem now...
no screen, no boot, vol down+ power oso same
no screen just a long vibration
anybody help?
I am using the correct radio so don't tell me I am using a wrong radio or something, I have been flashing for 4 months so I know EXACTLY how to flash.
now i can neither get into tri-color or hard reset so don't tell me to flash or smth like that, just tell me how to recover properly
Don't tell us to use search or something because seems like only 2 of us is encountering this problem in the internet
I'm exactly the same problem as TS coz it juz auto go vibrate when plug in battery
This problem actually started when I flash ROM halfway, it stucked and failed...
the device is already HSPL-ed!!!!
but why the F it cannot get into tri-color bootscreen now?
Also, I have to state that my device already got several problems before, my device was very hard to bootup as it will always stuck at HTC screen w/o red version number at bottom left corner, must keep on removing and reinstall battery and reboot until it can boot, not an issue with rom/radio/sim/sd as I tried flash proper rom and radio and remove sd and SIM.
my device also seems like got problem at the gps chip, because when using it for a few minutes, it will lost signal and never reconnects unless i soft reset, after use gps the device will also use battery VERY FAST(-100mA in standby, from -4mA).
now i cannot flash to stock completely, how do I get warranty it?
at the long vibrate, when i plug in to my pc, it will keep on got usb connected and disconnected sound
and dont know what device is connected as not shown in found new hardware and device manager
I also have been searching all possible keywords about what me and TS encountered but all linked to completely UNRELATED results(like search for long vibrations only link to people asking how to make vibration long and 1st result is this thread)

Silly question, but are you holding (and keep on holding) the Volume-Down button while you press the power button?
of course YES
i told you i have been flashing for so long
Leo from T-Mobile. Hi! I've got same problem. After flashing new (next) rom phone definetely died. Phohe is currently simfree and with HSPL. Only one reaction is short vibration after press power button. I searched everywhere. My phone has no bootloader but system see him as Qualcom CDMA Technologies MSM. Thats all, any ideas? Please and thanks for advice.

Yes, you flashed a non tmous stock rom that included a ..51.. radio and it destroyed your phone.
What rom? exact filename please.
thank you so much.
I bricked a Leo with the .51 radio. I think I read that is a European or otherwise foreign radio. Since your ROM has Euro in the name.......

The full filename for that rom is
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.66.479.2_Radio_CRC_Si gned_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship.exe
it comes with a version x.xx.51.x radio, and they do Not work on tmous (t mobile us) phones. They kill them
Your phone is dead, sorry. No known fix.
warranty or repair (or JTAG if you are brave and have the money)
a friend of mine bricked his phone. he then tried to microwave it, but that didn't work after that he took a power wire from an old computer, cut it and connected it directly to the phone's parts where the battery would go...this completely f-ed his phone up (he also used a lighter to fake a powersurge of the battery). Then he called htc and a few weeks later he got a new hd2!
GOOD LUCK
lol, he doesnt need to do any of that, its allready as dead as it can be. Loads of epople have had them replaced under warranty with this kind of brick. It wont start, so htc/tmo cant see that its been hacked.
Hi! I understand and realy sad. Somebody know where could I fix it in UK? And how much for this pleasure. Thanks.
i would contact htc, see what they have to say. (dont say you flashed it, it just stopped working")
I need help my phone won't load up after HTC screen!
what can i do ? : (
Did you flash anything prior to this problem or even install a program or tweak the registry?
i flashed a rom..
i tried hard rest.
nothing works.
but i think i did a mistake ,Full TMOUS Compatible with 576 RAM + 1 GB Storage and i have normal HD Leo..
can that be the reason?
The problem is if you have a TMOUS and flash a non TMOUS compatible ROM or even worse a .51 Radio. There is no problem the other way.
Did you HSLP flash your phone first?
The ROM you are flashing, unless it is a stock one (ie from HTC) does not include a Radio ROM. These custom ROMs will specify what Radio ROMs work with their ROMs. These Radio ROMs have to be flashed first, although if you go into bootloader mode (Hold Volume-down button and switch on), then connect and flash the correct Radio ROM.
yes i have HSLP 2.08 .
and i also installed radio rom 2.12.50 before flashing to the rom.
the rom is VBNROM▐ Aug 16 - RC5.5 Android Compat▐ BLACK/GTX▐ 21915/24623▐ Test 23129/23569▐
and i have a European leo version not the american.
so can that be a problem?
so u say i can do the hold down and power then i can install a new rom?
fred_up
thanks i did the Down Vol And power and flashed to a new rom.
and works ^^ thank u so much

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.
Hello guys i have a problem with my HTC HD2.
I have searched a lot on this site before posting my problem.
This is what happens and what i did:
The phone doesn't pass the white HTC screen with the RGD letters below.
What i have tried:
HSPL 2.08.HSPL, 1.66, 1.42, 2.08.000
Radio: Leo_RADIO_2.08.50.05, Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14
Roms: Stock Vodafone (Dutch) rom, Energy rom
Hard reset (vol up +down on startup).
Tried task 29 and started everything all over again
I went to the a phone store, they couldnt help me. Afterwards i went to the official store but i don't have my receipt anymore so i don't have a warranty..
So i think i have tried everything i could find on this forum. Tried most of the HSPL versions with diferent roms. But all of them stay on the startup screen (white htc start screen)
If someone can help me please, this is really my last chance
Thanks,
Issam
ps. i hope this is the good section to post this problem.
Well the phone starts up now (it actually works for a few minutes!). I haven't changed anything, the only thing i did is leave the battery out for like 1 hour. But everytime i start up the phone it freezes and / or turns of after 1 min or something. Sometimes it doesn't even boot up like the usual problem, but then i remove the battery for 10 minutes and it boots normal again.
So i really don't have a clue
i was experimenting all day again with my htc.
What i found out was, the longer i keep my battery out of the phone the longer i can use it.
For example: I had the battery out of the phone for about 2 hours, when I put it back in i could use it for like 10 minutes.
But when i keep the battery out for 10 minutes it freezes within 1 minute.
Maybe this will help me get the solution to this problem.
I would format the sd card just in case, also make sure you have the correct versions of what you need, rom raido ect, because theres two types of HD2s, hope this helps!!
Thanks for the reply, i tried formatting the SD card and i succeeded doing it 5 times i think. I think i have the correct version of rom and radio, how do i know?

You should remove hspl , and after that install the latest rom available on htc site for your device (download the rom from htc site, with your serial number ) . Official roms have included radio inside of them. If HSPL is removed and you have again problems with your device with an official rom installed, then you have a hardware problem. You could try to boot up without sd card installed, to see if the card is the problem.
Thank you,
I will try removing HSPL and install the original ROM from the HTC site. I'll let you guys know.

I see that you are on t-mobile network , so you should download your rom from here: http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/ . Just enter your imei and download the update. Remove HSPL and then install the official rom. Perform a hard reset after that , and see if is all ok . Keep us informed pls.
Hi, yes i have a T-mobile contract, but my phone is Vodafone branden so i'll have to download the Vodafone version I think.
But what i just did is this:
I had HSPL 2.08.HSPL and a Custom ROM on it. So I was planning on maybe sending it back. Thats why I performed a task 29 to delete all the previous (parts of the) Roms. After that i changed my HSPL to 1.66.000, the original spl I had on it.
But now the phone does vibrate when i hold the power butten (with vol down), but there is no picture, so i cant get into the phone or the Red green blue screen. So i think the phone will not boot because I deleted the Rom on the phone and also returned the spl to original.
Is there a solution for this problem? omg this phone just doesn't seem to be working for me (maybe it's me that is not working for the phone).
It is normal since you did a task29. Verify if you did it correctly here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644781
Yes i have read that thread thank you, but the question is:
How can i get the phone to connect with my PC, so I can install original ROM. Because the Boatloader screen won't start up, to make connection with my Computer. I press the power button and vol down butten at the same time. Tried it at least 20 times
Thanks you all. But i sent this phone back to HTC. The board was replaced and they sent it back, so it works again! finally my phone back
I have a hd2 with blutopia n supersports rom and today has been 1 helluva messed up day seriously !( I cant think straight) its all because my phone wont work. the phone was working beautifully with android on it and out of nowhere today the screen is not responding AT ALL. its so frustrating cant make a call cant read my txts.can some 1 please just tell me what i have to do so i can get a replacement?

open your phone up. take the battery off. The IMEI should be there along with serial number. Good luck
Touchscreen problem
Yesterday I start with a similar problem.
Using several Android builds on the same stock memory card.
The touchscreen stops responding always when I try to
reboot or turn off the phone, the same on all Android builds
and on WinMO. But locking the phone brings the touchscreen
back to life. Then I am able to unlock the phone and the
touchscreen keeps working OK.
Will try flashing the updated stock ROM.
you run hspl3 again , but select the other option with the extra.oooo, 208.000 , by default hspl3 installs the one to allow roms to work,,, when you rerun hspl3 select the other to set back to original so you can send back to factory anfter u install the t-mobile original rom
