Hi i need some help cause im a major noob at doing this flash on my htc hd2. Im trying to get miri v 17 rom on my phone but dont exactly know how. So i know my flash size on my hd2 is 1024 mb, I have a rom of 2.13 and I have spl of 2.100. I know you need an hspl of 1.42 or 1.66 to install these roms, but how do I do all this without hurting or bricking my phone. a pretty good tutorial would be very much appreciated. thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
you havent read enough. You need hspl3 (see my sig)

NEVER try and apply version 1.x roms or 1.x hspl's to your phone, they are for normal hd2, not tmous.

get hspl3 from my sig, choose '2.08.hspl' and when you are done goto and bookmark THIS section, and never leave it until you know what you are doing.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Kinderriegel:
What helped me was after starting the hd2 in bootloader and connecting it to thepc, I updated the device driver for qualcom... automatically, and voila! it worked!

T-Mobile SPL-2.08.HSPL (CotullaHSPL)

For T-Mobile HTC HD2, the SPL version is SPL-2.08.HSPL (CotullaHSPL).

Can I unlock it?

Thanks a lot!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
see the red bit? its already unlocked.

Or did you rather noobishly mean sim/network unlock? in which case yes you can unlock it, but it has nothing to do withg teh info you posted.

To sim unlock you can either

buy a code online

get a code from your operator.

"Please wait wile installing the HSPL.."

How long does it take to install the HSPL. Does anybody know? I'm already waiting for about ten minutes. I thought it would be done in a minute. It might be not working? Anybody who knows if I have to wait or not?

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
takes about 1/2 a minute. Try again, and dont forget to run as administrator. Try booting into bootloader manually first before you run hspl.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JeroenReumkens:
Same problem again. Booted into bootloader first, then started HSPL2.

I'm also in Windows as Administrator. Only thing which could cause the problem, might be the fact that I'm on a Mac, running Windows via Parallels software.. ?

And you have to get HSPL onto the device to run Android on it? Or is there another option?

Thanks for the quick answer!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
ahh well thats it, it seems hspl cant get a low level enough access (or something) whilst running in a virtual box. It will work if you set up a true dual boot, because then hspl has direct access to the hardware. (Just my theory as to why it wont work on mac, i could be wrong, i'm no hard/software engineer, but the effect is the same, whether i am or not, heh)

(Oh, and being logged on to windows as administrator isnt enough for vista/7, you still should right click and choose 'run as administrator')

Easiest option is to use a PC to load hspl, then use parallels to sync and flash roms and that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JeroenReumkens:
Okay, thanks for the tip. I'll run downstairs right now and grab my sisters Windows notebook. I'll give it a try on her notebook. Thanks for the help :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JeroenReumkens:
Great, that worked!

But still, when booting into Android it stops with the text "Loading into kernel". That's all the device does. I'm reformatting the SD card right now. Maybe it works.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JeroenReumkens:
Still not getting any further. With the HTC Desire Sense Build it continues after "Loading into Kernel". But after running some code, the screen blackens out (backlight stays on) and nothing happens.

Anyone who can help me?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
probably better to ask in the android section, not here in the hspl thread.

Personally, ive yet to get any android to boot, but ive only tried a few times, and i havent tried very hard.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] finesse:
going to try Android, which HSPL 3 is the latest release?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
there is only 1 hspl3.

So I'm trying to flash HSPL3 on my HD2 for the first time, so I'm a noob at this but everytime I download and run the file, and it starts the app an error message says it is unable to locate the component and it won't let me install the HSPL onto my HD2. Any help guys? I've redownloaded the link thousands of times, and no changes whatsoever.

Hy .. i have a hd2 with test firmware or something like that and my SPL is 0 64 .. how can update or how to get HSPL
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] domchik:
Hey guys. I have installed the hspl 1.66 back when I bought the hd2. How can i upgrade the hspl to 2.08 for example? Do i need to uninstall the previous 1.66 hspl first or can I just flash over the old one. Thank you
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] AussieTech:
I had the same problem - you need to right click on the .exe and "Run as.." make sure you select an administrator account
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
you can flash straight over the top however you won't see any difference cos all roms will work on any version hspl.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Kalip:
Hello.

I have a problem with my HD2 and hope someone can help me.

I bought my HD2 on june, 05. I immediatly flashed HPSL 1.66. I flashed a new radio and cocked my own rom with cucky's kitchen. So far so good. All was working. After severals days, i cocked another rom flashed it. I flashed many rom with little changes. "Upgraded to HSPL 2.08" I doesnt count how many flashes i've done. Must be more than 50. All with Task29.

But my devices becomes unstable, i had freezes and sometimes it was stuck at the white screen with the HTC logo.

Mid july i've start using android 2.2 with sense.

Last sunday, all the troubles begun. Starting mattc Leo android 1.5, while booting, my device frooze, making a reset und was stuck at HTC logo. I couldnt boot into WinMo anymore.

I flashed stockrom 1.66 via USB. It still was stuck at HTC logo. I flashed stock rom 1.66 via SD card. No error was shown. This time it was working. Booting normal into WinMo. But i want my cocked rom back. So i flashed HSPL again. Flashed a new radio (2.12) and my own cocked rom. It was stuck at HTC logo again after the flashing went well. After soft reset, it was booting. Ok, i wanted to make sure and was making a hard reset. Well, it was stuck at HTC logo again. So i flashed back stock rom. It seems to working well. Not sure and i havent used it for long, i want my rom back.

So, with stock rom 1.66 installed, i tried to flash HPSL. Flashing went fine, pressing vol down i get the tricolor screen showing me HPSL 1.66.

But with stock rom 1.66 installed and HSPL 1.66 installed, my device it stuck at HTC logo sometimes and it reboots automatically.

Tried HSPL 2.08 and 1.66, all the same.

Something is wrong. Could it be the NAND, defictive ?

Do i need to send it to repair ?

Or is there any hope i could do ?

Sorry for the long text, but hope someone can help.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] domchik:
Thank you for your reply. I know I won't see any difference. It is just that my phone started doing reboots and gets stuck on a white htc screen sometimes. I flash moderately, but always with task 29. Read somewhere here on the forum a recommendation to someone with a similar problem to mine to try and upgrade the hspl. I seriously doubt that it will solve the problem, but it is worth to try. Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
like the post above yours?

strangely, and i dont want to say it IS the problem, but it feels to me like quite a lot of the random sticking at htc screen (not counting the wrong radio people) happens to people that always seem to say 'i flash a lot and use task 29 every time' and/or 'after i played with android...'.

THis is just an observation, and it may be coincidence, and i dont want to cast aspersions at task29 or the droid roms, but i for one never use task 29 (mtty occasionally, maybe every 10/15 flashes or so) and i'm not touching android unless its 100% working
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] andi1977dog:
ive installed the HSPL tool so i can flash any rom but now when i go to flash via customruu.exe fiile the install freezes at 0% both on laptop and phone screen, any ideas pls :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] domchik:
samsamuel, exactly like the problem above. never installed an android though
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
you probably (like many many MANY other people) chose 'x.xx.0000' instead of 'x.xx.hspl' when you ran hspl.

Run it again but this time choose an option ending .hspl

Trying this for the first time. Anyone out there done a newer HD2 from T-Mobile with their new ROM? Just curious how it went.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
The easiest way is to merely flash the stock rom via the pc and then use HSPL2 to select your stock spl - x.xx.0000 ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] d_train:
So if I install HSPL v3 on my Telstra T9193 - I can uninstall it if I need to send it back under warranty? If so how?

Thanks

DT

EDIT: Sorry, found answer when I ran the install. Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Does HSPL3 not only give you the option to return to 2.08.0000, is that your stock SPL? If not (and as HSPL2 doesn't work on the Telstra rom and HSPL1 only returns you to 1.42.0000) you may need to flash the rom via sd card in order to overwrite the spl.

You could also look at this though as an alternative which may allow you to run HSPL2 - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=706064.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
+1, that's the method i'd go for if i had a telstra.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Thanks for the verification m8 :D

It's good to be back after a 3 week absence. I dropped my phone and the screen shattered and it took the idiots here 3 weeks to replace it :mad::mad:. I didn't want to punish myself by being online watching all of the new roms coming out and not being able to flash LOL.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
lol, mine went back with the "stuck in car kit mode" bug, amazingly got it back after 6days. new IMEI number though, so the unlock code i waited 6months and one week for no longer applies, argh! (i'd also complain about losing the screen part of the zag body kit, but it seems they replaced the screen too, far better, so i'll let them off that, hehe)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] zelendel:
From the Info You provided Hard SPL took so now you can flash custom roms. What were you expecting to happen? If it was so you can boot into android then you have gone threw step 1 of the process, Now shoot over to the android on HD 2 forum and read on from there to finish up
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MicroBoI:
If I want to flash my original stock ROM into android ROM, I just have to install the latest HSPL3 instead of the HSPL and HSPL2 right? Since HSPL3 is the latest edition.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
No, any HSPL version will do and HSPL is only really needed to change the radio (or if you decide to move to a cooked rom). If you don't need to change radio or rom then you probably don't even need HSPL AFAIK.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] DackParis:
Hiya Peeps

Okay,

I just need a little clarification. . .

When I flash HSPL3, I

1. Run the .exe from my PC with the device attached via USB. Dirrrr

2. Since I currently have Stock 2.08.0000, will flashing this HSPL destroy or wipe my winmo OS in any way?

3. I have hunted for a ling to the stock ROM/SPL so I can provide a way to undo this down the road. . .but no luck. Any links?

I hate asking questions but this isn't my device and I'm trying to help a friend who is very. . . skiddish. I'd rather not brick her phone. . . .
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
1. Yes

2. No, it merely replaces the stock spl with a "hacked" one and has no impact on the WM rom.

3. What stock rom do you have? There are many different roms out there, so it's rather difficult to find a link if we don't know what you are looking for ;) (Try here though - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=577717)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] DackParis:
Thank you for the reply. . .

I'm going to have to look to see which one it has. Thanks for the link!

I want to uninstall HSPL, I have SPL-2.08.HSPL

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Johev:
Hi people, I have been reading the posts over here and in other places too, but I still have one question.

I have HSPL 1.4X (not sure what the rest is), installed on my HTC HD2.

I have recently flashed Artemis 29.1 ROM (PTG), and when I posted there, I was advised to change to HSPL 1.66.

I read through most of the pages in this thread, but I was not able to find if it was worth to go to 1.66 or to jump and go ahead with flashing HSPL3.

Could anyone clarify this to me? Should I flash 1.66, HSPL 2 or go with the 3.

Thanks for all your help.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
Whats your original? if you have a tmous, then run hspl3, choose 2.08.0000

if you have a regular hd2, then run hspl2 and choose 1.42.0000 or 1.66.0000

running hspl2 and choosing 2.08.hspl is identical to running hspl3 and choosing 2.08.hspl, there is no difference in the actual code, the only difference is the loader on teh pc and the checks that it does for phone version. My advice, stick to hspl2.

As for teh advice to go up to 1.66.hspl, , it doesnt really matter, you wont see any difference, there are loads of people happily running teh latest roms on 1.42.hspl
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] turbobass:
Hi Beeb and Cotulla are you planning a hardspl for the Mini HTC HD device, if so any ETA.

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
You are probably better off sending them a PM than posting here. This thread and the tools here are specifically for the HD2 and you're likely to get flamed for asking here ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gaf george:
Hello i am new to installing HSPL and i am a bit confused on the whole process. Please forgive me if i post anyting that does not make sence or so.

here are my questions:

1) when i enter bootloader i get this:

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-1. 42. HSPL XE

0x5

CotullaHSPL 0x50

Does this mean that HSPL has already been installed? if yes wich version(HSPL, HSPL2, HSPL3) ?

2) if i have already HSPL installed, and it is HSPL2 (for example), inorder to install HSPL3 do i have to uninstall HSPL2 and then install HSPL3 or do i directally install HSPL 3?

Device : HTC HD 2

ROM Version: 1.66415.4 (76641) WWE

Radio Version: 2.06.51.07

......Thanks in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
hspl 1 2 and 3 are just the versions of the loader, not of hspl itself. You have 1.42.hspl, however if you were to use hspl2, and choose 1.42.hspl, it would be exactly the same, , , likewise, if you run hspl2 and choose 2.08.hspl, that would be identical to running hspl3 and choosing 2.08.hspl

My advice would be to use and stick to HSPL2 since it can return your phone to stock should you need it, whereas hspl3 cannot.

Yes you can hspl straight over the top.

Get hspl2, run it, choose whatever hspl you want (1.42.hspl, 1.66.hspl,2.08.hspl, it doesnt really matter, all roms will still work, but you may as well go for 2.08.hspl)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gaf george:
@samsamuel

Thank you very much! Your help was great! one more question:

i am trying to flash my device with a new custom ROM (ChuckyROM GTX), does the opperating system i am runing affect the whole process (including installnig HSPL2 and TMOUS Radio and then the ROM)?

i am running windows 7 64-bit, but i also have a pc with windows xp 32-bit.

Thank you in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
you will probably do well to use xp to load hspl, but the 7 mahine should be fine for flashing and synchronization
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gaf george:
@samsamuel

ook thanks a lot for the information and the help! one more thing, do i need windows mobility center for the flashing or is it possible to flash the device without using it?

thanks a lot again!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
hmmm, not sure. you certainly don't need to be actively connected to mobile device center, cos you can flash via usb when the phone is in bootloader, but whether the drivers will be there if its not installed i'm not sure.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gaf george:
@samsamuel

it workied fine i used mobile device center and all good!

thanks a lot again!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Dynamismflux:
OK...

So if there's anyone that can help me with this, I'd appreciate it. Basically, I'm trying to get the HSPL2 installed on my phone, but every time I get to install it, it gives me the error that the USB isn't connecting.

Should I run it as Active Sync? And if so, what of keeping the screen illuminated so that it connects? Or does it not matter, at all?

Someone help, and I appreciate it.

Cheers!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
There are a few steps you can try to help the process. Try using one of the usb ports at the rear of your pc and don't use any hubs. When you run HSPL, right click and select Run as Admin. Thirdly you can put your device into bootloader mode and then connect to the pc. Once USB shows up on screen then run HSPL.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Dynamismflux:
Ah, so I think my problem is, that I'm using HSPL2 instead of HSPL.

I can still remove it, should I decide to revert back to Winmo, or if I need to send my phone off to get fixed, yeah?

My operating system is Win-XP, btw. But also bro, how would I go into bootloader mode, if all else fails?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
No, I was referring to HSPL in general, ie 1, 2 or 3 ;). Use either HSPL2 or 3 though as they offer an easy route to return to the original spl, just rerun HSPL2 and select your original spl version.

To get into bootloader, switch device off, then while holding the volume down button in, switch the phone on again.

Thanks so much man. I really appreciate it.

My last question is, now that I've gone through boot-loader, gotten Active Synch 4.5 on my PC, installed HSLP3 and then moved it down to 2.08.0000 for my SPL, and finally installed Android, I was told to reboot the phone.

After I rebooted it (which I took as cutting the phone off and back on) I still got the windows interface. Now, do I need to do the entire boot-load process again? Or do I just turn the phone off, hold the volume button down, and then turn the phone back on with the volume button pressed down still, to start running Android?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Hi bud, I've responded to your PM as well ;). If your spl reads as 2.08.0000 note that this is not an hspl version and you need 2.08.hspl if you want to change your rom or radio. For Android though this is not always necessary. HSPL and/or Android does not replace WM. To start Android you need to run CLRCAD.exe and then Haret.exe from your Android folder on the sd card. Android (for now at least) still requires WM to boot out of and runs as a dual boot os.

Which rom did you flash? If it includes the incorrect radio (ie x.xx.51.xx) then it can brick your phone beyond repair. Check this out as a possible fix - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=668347

You need to run HSPL from your pc. If you are getting the rapi.dll error message then first turn off your AntiVirus and redownload the app. Also you can use HSPL3 rather than HSPL2_1024.
