Check S-ON instructions in my radio S-OFF tool's thread. Those will bring your device to stock state.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bert2662:

[HD2 General] Maniax53:
Hey Guys, Im new to the HTC HD2.

I got this phone from a guy at my shop. The previous computer guy did this to the phone and he said if i fixed it i could either buy it or sell it. I am sorry i do not have much information or the specifics to what exactley happened but i do have two pictures that i am including.

I have tried hard and soft reset. Also i have tried to restore to factory settings. I have a 4 gb sd card if needed. The phone is stuck at the stick together screen.Also there is no Serial when i am in the tri color boot screen. Also the phone will not connect via activesync nor will it sense it at all. The computer i am doing all of this work on is a 32bit xp os.

Any help or information would be appreciated.
[HD2 General] Hamsn:
The Phone is already HSPLed, but the issue you say you cannot establish a connection with PC, did you try the SD Card Flash method? That is by placing your Stock ROM NBH in the SD Card and flash it from there? Just check the General Forum, you will find the step-by-step procedure there.
[HD2 General] Maniax53:
So your saying do something like this?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11097380

And also i do not know all the phone terms. The last time i was here was back in 08 when i had my htc fuze. If you would please direct me in a specific way.
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
No that link you posted is to instal Android on the HD2. Seeing as you do not know the history of the HD2 youcshould go back to stock first. Go the links I post below and follow my instructions. Go to this link to get your ROM. Look under batterry for IMEI number, ROM downloadclink in step 4.

http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm54430.xml

Right click on the file you download and rename it from a .exe file to a .zip file. Then right click it again and select view/explore which ever one you see and find the.RUU_signed.nbh file and copy it to a micro SD card of 8 gig and under formatted Fat 32. Once it is on the micro SD card rename the file to LEOIMG.nbh and then put the micro SD card in the HD2. Boot the HD2 into bootloader and when you see searching on the screen of the HD2 and let go of the volume down button and it should ask you of you want to flash the image, press the end button to comfirm and the ROM will flash. Be advised though this will remove HSPL from the HD2.

Here is a link to the flashing by SD card thread.

Awesome!

Will try!
[Vibrant Android Development] razormy:
Downloading.

Thanks

Edit: oops
[Vibrant Android Development] junglerumble:
Btw, can we expect better battery than the other gb roms?
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Tell Me What You Think? Hit The Thanks Button
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
does it got that rainbow bug???????
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Some What You Just Have To Try, Your Experiance Will Be Diffrent Than Mine...

It Should Be Its The Newest Modem...
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Yeah 2 Sec...
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
I dont want to sound discouraging, but why does CM7 and MIUI Gingerbread ROM dont have any rainbow? cant we use CM7 Kernel(Kang's version)

coz Kernel is reason to rainbow I think.

Thank you VERY MUCH for your Efforts..

keep it up!!
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Its Based On Edts Rainbow Roms, No Bootloader... Thats Why Its Not The Kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] Segnaro:
So what's the deal with this Toggle Headset thing?

1.It's because we don't have Gingerbread bootloaders.

2. CM7 kernels don't work
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
I'm confused why people are reposting the EDT ROM with basically nothing changed. Users can uninstall and install app themselves. Same goes for Kernels and Modems. None of the original bugs are solved really so I'm confused why this is the second such ROM out today.

I understand it's a great learning experience but from a user standpoint it does not contribute much. I would love when the dev uses the things he/she learned from this to make something.

PS: hayn_pryde46, this is not directed at you nor is this negative. I am very glad you decided to get into the dev game and hope you will become good at it. I'm just unsure your learning experience should be posted as a complete ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] The Tech Game:
why did you port this if it has like NO difference between mine? i mean seriously dude not cool.
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Thank you for the previous two posts. I recently got a thread closed because I stated that the dev section is getting polluted with too many roms, which are all the same with minor changes. Im glad im not the only one
[Vibrant Android Development] The Tech Game:
ALL he did was download my rom, and re-upload it with some more apps and a different modem/kernel. NOTHING MORE.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Yeah sorry most 98% files are new from xwjvb I just used the rom as base deleted all the files but their init.d tweaks added new build.prop and modem and kernel got mtp sync to work and maybe debugging and original music player remember reboot problems with whitehawks rom, in which he changed it to miui apk
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Delete
[Vibrant Android Development] joe.kerwin:
Literally just came to post the exact thing. It seems to be a trend lately, to the point that it's getting ridiculous. The bugs that exist are pretty big, so how about we either work on those, or sit back and wait for other, more advanced devs to fix them before we start "porting" and call it our work.

I assume you don't have the ability to fix the existing bugs, so that alone should stop you when you go to open a thread for a new ROM that you know you don't have the ability to improve yourself.

I mean, then what? Someone is going to work really hard and eventually fix something, you're going to copy/paste it and call it an update? Just relax on these "ports" for now, they're not needed at this stage of 2.3.3 for the Vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] The Tech Game:
so you DIDN'T tweak it as it says in your post. You give me NO credit even though you downloaded my rom (which has at least some BIG differences to whitehawks) and just replaced the files that determine the build number added a different kernel/modem and pass it off as your COMPLETE own work. Mine at least fixes some bugs his old rom had (battery drainage, made 3D gaming less sucky). Like cmon dude.
[Vibrant Android Development] The Tech Game:
however not ALL the time. id recommend to leave gps off, most of the time it doesn't work. Like out of 50 times turning it on youll get a lock probably 3-5 times.
[Vibrant Android Development] trungdaika:
Hey, i cant get in CWM after flash newest version.

P/S: GPS working perfectly w me :) but the quadrant is so bad. i dont care about it btw
[Vibrant Android Development] The Tech Game:
recovery doesnt work bro you need to use the app.
[Vibrant Android Development] trungdaika:
Wuts app can i use, dude?
[Vibrant Android Development] Androidwhiz:
Anyone else getting boot loops? Odined back to JFD then flashed through cwr. Now I am stuck in boot loop. What should I do?

EDIT: Problem solved odined back flashed again w/o wipe cache
[Vibrant Android Development] Kwaii49:
Update: GPS can't lock, no matter how long I let it sit. It would locate me but directions on google maps is a hassle. It doesn't stop displaying "Searching for GPS". And my phone can't boot into recovery. It gets stuck on a screen half "rainbow"on top and the logo vibrant on the bottom. Took me 4 battery pulls for my phone to boot normally.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
When its half rainbow have logo that's recovery which you can't see "stated in op" just put power button and it will reboot
[Vibrant Android Development] Kwaii49:
Thanks for your response. I tried the power button, it just rebooted and returned back to the same screen. My phone is fine now though, I just know not to try that again.

I noticed the gps edit in the op. Thanks to the op for acknowledging it.

It's a sweet rom, good enough to keep.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Just keep it jfs it does better, If You Change To EXT 4 Or Ultra It Will Break Videos And Have Ram, Battery Issues I Further Tested It... It Also Starts Lagging I Dunno Whats Wrong First Time I Tried It Was Smooth
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
I have a flashable but I didnt put it in
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Gps worked from the beggining but lock 20 feet away, thats I tried asking jellete to take a look but he hasnt gotten back to me...
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Dont worry it safe in the raibow just follow the op you do fine
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Just because I wouldn't stop until I figured everything out lol:

I realized that my phone was actually converting to ext4 while I though it was "Stuck" so everything converted to ext4, and I flashed the ultra kernel, and things do seem more stable or it could be a placebo lol, only thing that doesn't work is the home button on the ultra kernel.

The reboots stopped after about 6 times, I wish I would of knew to just let me happen before I reinstalled all my apps and then odined.. no big.

Love it so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Rebooting Is Cause It Didnt Get The 15 Mins And The Reboot Just Reboot After It Does This And It Stops But I Noticed Ram Issues In Ext 4 And Ultra Thats Why Its Lagging Now I Dunno Whats The Cause Of This I PM The Op Nikedemus On This Maybe He Can Provide A Fix... When I First Tryed It WAs Really Smooth And I Wanted Voodoo Sound 8 So I Went With Now We All Have Issues Im Really Sorry For Inconvienence
[Vibrant Android Development] ali1276:
How do you flash zips with the CWM app?
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Go To CWM App And Press Flash Update, It Will Put You On You SD Card... Must Be CWM2 Or 3 Flashable But Only JVB Flashables Work With Rom
[Vibrant Android Development] jamespwolpert:
oof. I remember asking that question.

And to answer, I have a few of my own:

are you rooted?

have you flashed/dl'd cwm yet?
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
What Yes Im Rooted And I Have Flashed With The App
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Hmm haven't had any lag, did it come later on?
[Vibrant Android Development] lightninbug:
So would it be better to flash .3 for now until the reboot are fixed in .4? Or does .3 also reboot 8-10 times before starting up?
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
I Dunno I Just Get Bumps Here And There No lag But They Been Complaining About Lag, I Know Ext 4 And Ultra Burns Ram If You Check Task Manager... Oh And The Home Button Worked For Me... The Bumps Are Normal I Had Some And In 3 And 3.1 But Jfs

Really Helps On Ram Mine Has Been Im The Hundred Range No Bumps Nor Lag
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Its Ok The Newbies Just Need Instructions, I Flashed Had Good Flashes And The Whole 15 Mins. Then Reboot And Its Fine No Reboot Issues Dont Need To Go Back If You Dont Want Too...
[Vibrant Android Development] Demiurgic:
We don't have gingerbread gps drivers for the vibrant yet, are you sure its just not locating you by wifi?
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
No My Wifi Isnt 20 Feet Away And It Does It On 3g

I guess the vendor files are similar in jvb to vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Guess i'll be testing with the ultra kernel, but it's pretty fast so far, will let you know, and anyone else who is following lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Yeah its a good kernel but I love my videos and camera so... But its smooth I just see red flags with ram at 250 mb the bumps is only in the market ive thought about it thats the way it is on alot of roms
[Vibrant Android Development] Kwaii49:
Well that explains it lolll. Thanks for the explanation.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Yeah Only The Market Lags But I Thought About It Every Rom The Market Lags Must Be Data...
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
@ cashyftw,

How You Doing W/ Ultra... Loving Voodoo Sound 8
[Vibrant Android Development] BuLLeT_PrOOf_wAlleTz:
loving the rom.. can i change mui music with regular tw music app.. wondering if i can just use root explorer to extract it from a 2.2.1 rom? i love the feature of pressing the mic button on headphones to pause/play/skiptracks.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Still LOVING it, no lags as of yet, Just trying to figure out why my home button is acting as if it were a trackball. I'll be able to test really good tomorrow, and Voodoo sound 8... Sex to my ears.

Ps: I couldn't even see my self going back to froyo lol, that's how much I love this.

Pss: I actually used Ultra for about an hour, then I switched to bleeding edge ultra and everything is still working great, haven't tested video, camera works fine though.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Glad you love it, the one thing I wanted was voodoo sound 8 and I bet everyone else too, lol its like sex to my ears too...
[Vibrant Android Development] Abu-7abash:
One question, does this by any chance support Arabic? :D
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Didnt do multi langauge yet still the same you can try and see but im not sure...
[Vibrant Android Development] Abu-7abash:
Ok then can anyone confirm if there's the "Arabic" option in locale and text? If so then this rom should be an Arabic supporting one.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Yeah You Can Its Possible To Change Every App
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
What Would Be The Name Of The Arbic Langauge So I Can Confirm
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Is It Kazakh...
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
It Has 35 Langauges It Supports
[Vibrant Android Development] Abu-7abash:
It would be called Arabic too, most likely with the Emirates or Egypt as locale.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Doesnt Support Those Sorry... I Dunno Theres Weird Symbols I Do Not Understand Try It And Let Me Know If It Is Arabic
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Delete please
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Nikedemus said ram issue is not a bug and that we shouldnt worry about it but hes gonna look up memory extensions and get back to me
[Vibrant Android Development] Abu-7abash:
Can you snap shot that and post it here? Its a long tiring process for me to odin to stock and flash this and most probably re-odin back to stock again and re-flash my current rom. If it's not that much to ask ofcourse :)
[Vibrant Android Development] The Tech Game:
GPS works guys lol it takes a little longer to get a lock (5-8 seconds) but it definitely works :D
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Going outside to try now, well how exactly are you testing?
[Vibrant Android Development] ali1276:
I am on the Ultra kernel, everything is stable except the key mapping is wrong, I was wondering if anyone knows a fix and if you could tell me how to do it.

[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
I Benchmarked An 1820 Score
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
whoa, i thought I posted here, guess not..

Anyways, a question or two before flashing this:

The Battery life, to people who've been using this for a while... hows the battery life? Is it sucky like CM7 and MIUI? I need to be able to get ATLEAST 12 hours with moderate-heavy use.

Does phone calls work without having to mute and unmute to hear the other person?
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
You Can Use Sgs Kernel Flasher Got It Working
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
can you please answer my question quickly so i can go and flash this :D:D:D:D
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Havent Tested On Full Battery But v. 3 Saves Battery and v.4 For Performance... V.3 I Used It Lightly And A Lasted More Then A Day, Fully And About 6 Hr. Remember iTs Not A Full Battery Nor Calibrated...
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Battery life is way better then cm7/miui believe me, lol it will never be as bad, but don't go expecting a whole day either :D
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
so v4 has less battery life than v3??
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Yeah Because Its Boosting Performance, Modem And Kernel Work Together In v.3 But v.4s Kernel Burns Battery A LIttle Bit Faster
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
i did exactly what the instructions said, and now when i rebooted

this is what i get:

The double rainbow **** the messed up screen then it reboots and says VIBRANT and the double rainbow, then vibrant etc.

Should this be happening?
[Vibrant Android Development] ali1276:
Two questions: do you think you could put more oc?

Second: Could you put CWM 2.5.1.2 because some zips are only flashable with 2.5.1.2 or is that uncompatible with gb?
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
No it shouldn't, Odin again :/ and then try wiping cache, then flash again

Did you try v3 or v4?
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
v4

just odin'd and phone's rebooting to stock.

So what i do is...

After stock, i went ahead and rooted, then flashed clockwork recovery.

After that i reboot into clockwork recovery, factory reset/wipe option

then i flash the v4.1 then i wipe cache partition and then Advanced > Fix permissions

reboot system now

thats all i did before, are those the right steps?
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Kind of

I just went into recovery, flashed the rom, and wiped cache then rebooted.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Only Xwjvb Compatiable CWM Work

[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Dame New Kernel Im Trying... Mapping Is Backwards Home is Back, Back Is Home Anyone Know A Fix Without Kernel Reconstruction... Cause This Kernel Is Hundred Percent Better...
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
so its SUPPOSED to show the rainbow thing?

Cashyftw told me something else... lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] cnote74:
Eugene373 is a kernel expert you might ask him about it
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Haha it's suppose to show the rainbow at the beginning. but it's not suppose to bootloop lol
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
ooh mkay. re-doing it right now.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
GOOD NEWS!

So far, it hasn't rebooted its just showing the double rainbow thing, thats a good thing right? :D

god i love the fact this phone can't brick GOD I LOVE YOU.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Im try To Fix It
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
cashyftw I PMED You
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
okay :)

Btw how long should the screen be on for?

It's been on for like 3+ minutes right now.

im talking about the double rianbow screen btw.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
If i'm not mistaken, I think it's converting to jfs.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
okay, should there be any voice? you know like linda or something? It'd be helpful to know the progress, but yeah, anyways thanks for all your help guys!

It's still there, and i'll report back when its all good.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
No Linda Just Straight Forward Because You Switch To Ext.4 In An App
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
okay, erm, can you tell me an estimate on how long it should take? im getting impatient lol, its still on that screen. :(
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
It Doesnt Have Bootloader, Boot.bin And Sbl. Bin Thats Why It Has The Rainbow
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
I Cant Change The Rainbow Like He Did Unless I Take The Kernel Because The Fix Is In The Kernel I Presume
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Pretty sure its been over 10+ minutes now, can you estimate the time that this needs to be done on please? Also if i decide to cancel this and pull battery... like.. while on the rainbow thing...

can i get into download mode, and then odin?
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Hmm that's not right, it should only take MAX 10mins.
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Yes you can odin, as long as you can get your phone into download mode, I wonder whats wrong. Your flashing back to stock so that isn't the issue.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Explodingboy70 Told Me Of A Fake Boot img. Im Gonna Try It
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Thats Weird Mine Take Three
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
aww, so i was able to get back into Download Mode and am Odin'ing right now, should i re-try to flash this? God i really wanna get this ROM, should i re-download it as well? Maybe a bad download??

going to try the V4 and see if that works instead of 4.1.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Yeah Thats Weird It Should Only Take 2-3 Mins. Just Flash Without Deleting Anything From Recovery And Reboot...
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
What do you mean without deleting anything from Recovery?

Just go into Recovery, then flash the ROM, and reboot? is that what yu mean? like skip the wipe/factory reset and wipe cache partition steps?
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Yeah Thats What I Ment I Do It All The Time When I Test Doesnt Change Anything
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Yes, I think thats what he means.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
Maybe You Should Wait Im Test On An Rc1 Just Tring To Get Key Mapping Going And It Would Be Crazier Then The Last Two Versions, A Mix Of Voodoo And Cf Root
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
U SERIOUS? I HATE YOU!!!!!!

well on the good side...

It worked lol?

I flashed with no deleting anything like you said and it flashed right on, and it didn't even take 3 minutes it took like 10 seconds for it to do the ****, but something i noticed was during the other flashes, it added files like alarm and other stuff on my internal SD

it's at the Galaxy S screen right now where the S glows :D
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
SWEET! Glad it's working, let me know if you have any probs! :D
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Can't wait to test!
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
okay problem already..

during the process of flashing like 4 times, it erased my SD Card, luckily i saved it on my PC yesterday, when i connect USB and everything, and select copy/move files to PC from noti. bar nothing shows up on my computer... no folder popping up... whats the problem?

edit nvm, tried different port, works now.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
same here, i'll flash it ASAP!

any ETA? loving the ROM so far btw.
[Vibrant Android Development] hayn_pryde46:
