What do you mean with need 1.42.0000 SPL

I did lots of things, also used the coldcard by my first flash of a USER rom.

Now I still have a user rom on it, and I like to go with HSPL to a new USER rom, but get all the time the message need 1.42.0000 don´t know when it changed on my HD2.

Can someone describe me how can I get it back ?

thanks,

kobers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
if you flash from an sd card and the rom contains an spl (a stock rom for instance) them it will overwrite the hspl. (indeed this is how your remove hspl if you need to send it back)

if you flash from the pc, it won't overwrite the spl even if there is one in the new rom.

so, to reset your spl, flash a stock rom from sd card.(don't need to be gold card if you use the right rom for your phone)

@balders... for o2 stock rom go to the official roms thread, first post, first link, look in 1.43 section for the rom with wwe o2 uk in the name. that's our backup.

Hello, I have a problem. I have problems with my phoe what I wrote in the thread of Artemis. I want to flash my stock rom on my phoen but I can't. I did everything wat is wrote here for flashing. Downloaded stock ROM. Opened with Winrar. Unpacked RUU_signed.nbh Formated Micro SD card with Fat32 put the file on it and renamed with leoimg.nbh When I start bootloader I never get further than the bootloaderscreen with the colors. It says on the bottom serial an does nothing more. What could be the reason?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wizzi:
Excuse my ignorance, however I've been out of the game for a while ..

Can someone please explain a few things to/for me?:

- What do the acronyms HSPL (HardSPL), NBH, RUU, SPL, SSPL, WWE and CID stand for?

- Is a 'cooked' ROM one that has been compiled by someone other than the manufacturer? Therefore, making it unsigned?

- What is the purpose of the HardSPL? From what I can understand, it's to allow me to install any unsigned or 'cooked' ROM .. is that right? I've installed it, had no dramas and it rebooted fine. I haven't noticed any change though and can't find anything new in any of the menus that I've come across so far.

I only started looking into all of this as I'd like to run Gen.Y DualBoot so that I can check out and use Android.

So my final question (for now) is to ask if someone can point me in the direction of the Android ROMs and instructions on how to get it onto my SD card so that I can dual boot both WinMo and Android.

I have a htc HD2 (Leo) NextG Telstra

It shows:

SPL-1.42.HSPL

CotullaHSPL

PS. Has anybody found a decent leather case that has a belt-clip for the HD2/Leo?

Cheers,

wizzi.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] meirsa:
I tried to install on my htc HD the New Dutty's HTC HD WM6.5 Leo R2 ROM. My spl is 1.54 and when I tried to install the hardspl that I took from xda I got the message

To install this HSPL there must be SPL 1.42.0000 on your device

Otherwise the installation will fail

What is the solution for this problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wizzi:
Speaking on behalf of those of us who you think don't have a clue, some of us are learning as we've either not had or got the experience nor the time to spend looking into this as much as you obviously do. That said, none of us would have ended up in these forums if we weren't trying to learn - even if it's to understand what the HSPL is or does. If people took the time to explain in detail, it'd result in a lot less posts, questions, duplicate threads, etc.

Share the knowledge. Whatever you learn, be prepared to pass onto someone else.

I'm gradually understanding it more as I read into it more and more, however it's becoming clear that in order to be able to do anything towards modifying the HD2/Leo in any way (for me, I'd like to install Gen.Y DualBoot and Android on my HD2), the HSPL is needed to get a start.

My understanding is that it allows ROMs (shipped or cooked) to be loaded onto the phone without the need to worry if it doesn't work as you can always reflash it with a signed/shipped ROM if you need to return it for warranty purposes - at least that's what I've picked up so far. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm still yet to learn what the next steps are that I need to take to get Android loaded onto the SD card so that I can dual boot WinMo and Android 2.0.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] [★]:
1. To learn all the acronyms, head over to my video thread which is in my signature, I have them all explained.

2. You wont be able to run android on leo yet as it has not yet been made for it. (something to do with the kernel)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wizzi:
for a second there I was about to click 'Back' instead of the 'X' as I was so used to clicking through my HD2 :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wizzi:
hey, not sure if you're since found your answer, or just tried it .. but I've just successfully (without incident) installed HSPL to my NextG version of the handset. No troubles whatsoever in Win7 Ultimate 64bit.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wizzi:
Thanks, will do. I really appreciate it.

Reading through this gave me the impression it was already possible ..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] [★]:
Yeah the multibooter had been developed, but its only for the phones which xandroid has been made for

That post is partly down the thread ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nargile1975:
I discovered that I can not flash the original ROM anymore. I put the file on the SD card but it doesn't boot from the SD card. It flashes fot a moment and goes back to the HSPL bootscreen. I think this happend when the phone crashed when i flashed Artemis 2.71 on it and forgot to Hard reset it. Who can help me to install stock ROM on my phone? The normal way wont work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
Just to double check. you are renaming the RUU_Signed.nbh file to leoimg.nbh?

Also, if you have view file extensions turned off, and you have renamed it leoimg.nbh then you will have inadvertently renamed it leoimg.nbh.nbh
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nargile1975:
I checked that. The file is named leoimg. I didn't put a extra nbh behind it. I can see that the ROM wants to start but can't. The bootloader starts it flashes for a moment and goes back to the bootloader.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
Card formatted to Fat32?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nargile1975:
Yes, formated to fat32. It's a ingston 4 GB card. I formated the card again and tried again. With no succes. I can't uninstall HSPL. Help!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nargile1975:
I found It !!! My 4 GB sd card was the problem. I found an other sd card with 2 gb and guess what. It worked.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
result, bet you feel better now, eh? hehe
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nargile1975:
Hell I feel better. I know it is not the ROM that coused the problem. I know it for sure now. It's te network of T-Mobile.

What are my chances of installing HSPl

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
You need to downgrade SPL to 1.42. You can do this by flashing an official rom for your region that contains the spl from a normal sd card.

Thank you for this fantastic piece of software!

I'm wondering if there are any plans on 1.66.HSPL. I had to return back to 1.42.0000 to flash HSPL - not too convenient; and I'm afraid 1.66 is better than 1.42.

By the way does anybody know differences between 1.42 and 1.66?

Thanks man...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] barneyevo:
Hey all,

Just a little background information:

- Hard SPL'd my phone to flash Dutty's cooked ROM.

- All of a sudden one day, the phone switched off. I tried to boot it up but it will freeze on the HTC loading screen where it displays the radio version, ROM version in red down the bottom - the phone would not go any further.

- My computer won't even recognise it when I plug in my USB.

Anyway, I figured I'd try to uninstall HSPL and start over again. I downloaded an official HTC ROM, tried to load into the bootloader and now I'm stuck.

The screen reads:

Upgrade ROM code error

Please try again

If I pull out the battery/SD card, it will load into this screen again.

What *I THINK* may be the issue is that I didn't use the original ROM SPECIFIC to my phone, i.e. WWE Asian ROM.

I've updated the ROM image on my SD card but I can't get into the original bootloader to start the uninstallation process again.

Help!

T-Mobile Germany with Brand-ROM 1.43

Hello evveryone,

I also had the branded T-Mobile ROM 1.43.

First time I tried to flash with HSPL I got an error. That depended on the driver installation which was slower than the HSPL.

Second time it worked fine for me! :)

Next I also flashed with "_HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_HTC_GER_1.66.407.1_Radio_Signed_15.30. 50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship"

So I can confirm to that it works with T-Mobile ROM!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] schlei:
hmm i think it dont work
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
not just any original rom, it should be the correct original rom for your phone. so if your phone is a german t mobile then you need the german t mobile rom.

if you use the wrong rom, it will uninstall hspl, but the rom probably won't work because it won't match your phone region and vendor id.

Hi all,

In Australia we can only get the phone form Telstra.

AS it seems that it is important to upgrade the ROM with a ROM from your region, can we in Australia upgrade the ROM? I will use the HSPL to clear the Telstra setting but which ROM will be ok to use?
