I made the same mistake you made with my Alcatel OT-918(without N/M/D) and when I try using the upgrade program it says that there is no other version later than the one installed.

How should I overcome that?

I have an Orange Pasadena (one touch 918 - TCT Mobil Limited 918X-2JRGR04-KS40), with no backup and it will not pas the android logo.

I tried to flash different firmwares, OT-918_010.01_RootPermission_orange_branded, it hangs after the android logo, blank screen, with the backlight on. It does not respond to any hardware keys, but adb works just fine.

I have flashed original and custom recovery to and they work on the phone.

If I install a custom rom via cwm, usually it hangs at or after the android logo, or it gives me a bootloop into recovery.

The single custom rom which "kind of" works is Andread 3.2 i2e - the phone boots normally, but the rom is for a dualsim model, and it seems that the imei of the phone is lost, or the rom is not able to use the baseband. othervise the rom is working (wifi, browsing, market ...).

I only have the original user data backuo made with the original recovery.

hey guys, i had (and still have) a non responding touchscreen on my htc hd2. I am now trying to get it back to stock to send it in, cause it still has warranty...

anyway, i downloaded winmob6.5 from the htc side, its a vodafone branding, so i downloaded the one where it says vodafone=) its a phone from germany.

I did task 29, and then installed the rom. (phone still had 2.08HSPL). afterwards i installed 2.08 SPL with hd2 toolkit.

The phone now reads:

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-2.08.0000 8G XE

MicroP(LED) 0x05

MircoP(TOUCH) 0x50

in bootloader and:

G 15.42.50.11U

D 3.14.04666

when starting up.

my questions now are:

IS THIS ABLE TO BE SENT IN?

DO I HAVE TO CHANGE THE RADIO? IF SO,WHICH ONE?

ANYTHING I HAVE TO DO DIFFERENT TO MY WAY OF TRYING TO GET IT BACK TO STOCK??

help would be so much appreciated guys!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
I think you have to change your SPL to either 3.03, 1.66 or anything other than 2.08.

Because as far as I know, that SPL you have is for T-mous only, having it on means you've "HSPL-ed" your device, and since your device is not a T-Mous ..... :D

I'm not sure about the above, wait for someone more experienced to confirm.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
+1 to what Marvlesz said, the SPL version needs to be 3.03. I think 1.66 is only stock for the older ROMs with .51 radios, but on ROM version 3.14 the correct SPL is definitely 3.03.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kubekpop:
Aren't HSPLs replaced to stock ones (SPLs) when installed signed rom? For example stock HD2 has SPL 3.03. You install 2.08 HSPL After fun with Android you flash stock rom. All changes caused by flashing Android and HSPL are restored to defauld SPL 3.03 That's what I think and remember. Check that.

If not, then download http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=966228 this and flash SPL 3.03
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Yes, you are correct. But if you re-read his post, you'll notice that he said he had installed SPL using the NAND toolkit, which gave him (or he chose) SPL 2.08 (only for T-mous).

Whereas flashing his "original" stock ROM via sdcard would've definitely restored his device back to complete stock.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] wAVe4s:
first of all: thanks guys!

@kubekpop i downloaded hspl4 from DFT and installed hspl 3.03.

MicroP(LED) 0x05

MicroP(TOUCH) 0x50

in bootloader and

R 2.15.50.14

G 15.42.50.11U

D 3.14.04666

when starting up.

What do you guys reckon? ready to be sent in? what about the radio - leave it?

@Marvlesz, I didnt install from SD because i dont have a touchscreen nomore. and i though installing the original RUU via MAGLDR doesnt make sence? so thats why i just plugged it in the pc and started it from there=)

cheers
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Yep, that's fine now
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kubekpop:
But installation from SD doesn't need touchscreen. You just need nbh file (you can take it from temp files after running installer on PC - while it is still running search on drive C:/ [or other system partition] file ruu_signed.nbh And this should be in temp), formated SD without any partitions other than Fat32 (one). You rename ruu_SIGNED.nbh to leoimg.nbh and put it in SD. And via bootloader. But this what you have is enough :)

[HTC One X] andygatford:
I experienced the same problem with my 1st HOX. At the time I was at the beach so can only think that a small amount of sand was in my pocket.

Luckily I had some other issues (bad screen flicker and screen flexing) which I reported to the retailer and they replaced the handset. I did make it clear to them about the scratches instead of "playing dumb" by stating that my HTC HD2 had lasted 2 years without a screen protector/cover and had no scratches at all.

Since receiving my replacement HOX I have purchased a cheap slip pouch off eBay which I make sure the phone is always in if I'm out on my travels.

I understand your frustration as my 1st HOX was only a week old when the screen was scratched.

Hope you manage to get something sorted :)
