T-mobile HTC HD2 Android upgrade attempt...help?

I have the T-mobile HTC HD2 Windows mobile phone, and have been trying to upgrade to the Android OS. So far, so good, but I seem to have hit quite the wall.

I have an SPL 2.08 ROM (already downgraded from an SPL 2.10.0000 ROM), and it keeps telling me i need to downgrade to an SPL 1.42.0000.

Now, ive noticed everyone has been saying that SPL 1.42.0000 is not isolated for singular download, but whenever i download this package thing, it only lets me download spl 2.08, which I already have.

I Am very interested in removing the Windows OS, and attaining the Android OS.

Can someone help me out and point me in the right direction?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] zelendel:
I would love to point you in the right direction but there is no Android for the HD 2 at all.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] laurelcasts:
Is this guy full of crap?

I was directed towards the idea, when I came across this youtube video...I got all of his steps to work perfectly, up to installing the Android OS onto the phone...

What are your thoughts?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] 5haddex:
Noob question but I have SPL 1.42.0 so do I need to use the HSPL2 or HSPL3 ?

Also, when I install and get to the selection page, which do I select ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
that video is a scam. they get paid for you filling in the survey to get to the fake download.

I'm surprised you didn't see any of the 4 or 5 threads about it on here.

if you have a YouTube account you should mark it as spam.

Hi, guys. I,ve flashed a custom ROM some time ago and what if I'd like to flash a stock ROM that I downloaded from HTC's website? What's the first thing to do? Task 29 and then HSPL3 and then the stock ROM? Do I have to flash another radio or it is contained in this EXE:

The stock ROM I downloaded for my device is _HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.48.479.1_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe

Thank you in advance and sorry for the noob question.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
You can use HSPL, HSPL2 or HSPL3.

If you use HSPL, there is only 1.42.hspl. HSPL2 gives the option of either 1.42, 1.66 or 2.08.hspl. HSPL3 works on any device with any spl version, but only give the option of 2.08.hspl. You may as well use the latest version.

If you've flashed a custom rom before, you should still have hspl installed - so no need to rerun it. So you need only run Task29 and then the new rom. The stock rom will include its own radio - in your case it'll be 2.05.51.05_2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] atekone:
gotta love it!

"we hacked it :)" <--- thanks again! works great :D:D:D time to pimp out my hd2 gracias!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] drkalo:
Obviously I should revert from HSPL to SPL only in case of warranty claim. :) Thank you, ClydeB1.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tommy96814:
did this break task29? not working for me anymore since the flash to hspl3. it just stalls at 0 percent.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
my guess would be you accidentally chose 2.08.0000 in the hspl3 dropdown, instead of 2.08.hspl.

boot to bootloader and check the spl

I guess, with so many questions and so many posts, The thread tittle ans 1st post could be updated.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
lol, you wish. hspl 1024 came out weeks ago and still doesn't get a mention till page 990hehe
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pdgpereira:
I don't wish, actually ;) I'm a happy camper. Flashing since my old cruise. But I think of my fellow flashers :). What can I say :D

My T-Mobile UK Leo was bricked when I used HSPL 2. Will HSPL 3 help me to flash a custom ROM?

My bootloader says; SPL-1.66.0000 XE
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nicedude_abad:
According to the original post for HSPL3 by Cotulla it should work:

"*Now included only 2.08.0000 and 2.08.HSPL.

Seems all ROMs based on 1.42, 1.66, 1.XX can work with 2.08 SPL without problems.*

*Now one HSPL for different LEO types: UsualLEO, TelstraLEO and 1024LEO*

*Because there no SPLs except 2.08, so no risk to brick 1024LEO with wrong version.

*Telstra LEO supported. Actually Model ID checked by first 4 letters.

First of all special thanks to DFT , :)

my divice shipped with SPL 1.66.0000 and with hspl2 i change spl to 1.66.hspl , and i am trying almost many custom roms with out any problem

now my question :-

what more benifit i get if i go for SPL 2.08.hspl ..

please some detail so i clear with my point

ps: i think i can also play with any shipped rom too with 1.66.hspl

regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
no need to change hspl if you already have it mate and you can flash ROM's its just a new version that supports all models of hd2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] newstar:
mean new shipped leo`s are comming with latest spl`s and hspl3 also hacked almost of them :) .....

My Point clear so thanks you :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] newstar:
another quick question :) :-

shipped roms from 2.02 to 2.13 are based on tmous ? and only for 1024LEO and we cannot flash them on 512 version leo with out proper patching

is that true or ??

Regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
yes you can flash stock tmous to regular leo, no problem, but dont ever do it over sd card, only using usb, and always double check that youhave hspl installed before you do so.

And you should stay away from the early 2.0x versions, some of them have spl's that cannot be removed easily if you make a flashing mistake.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] newstar:
Thanks again :)

But as per i know flash using usb not overwrite your spl ....

ps: can i update to latest 2.13 tmous leo to my 512 leo and with 1.66.hspl
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] newstar:
Thanks @ samsamuel

you are so helpfull :)

xda is best just due to guys like u are here :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] finesse:
Thanks for your help, I will use the hspl 3 to hspl my t-mobile uk leo
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cb1100r:
I have 2 (stupids?) questions ;) :

1) Is the 2.08 is the thame version beetwin HSPL2 / HSPL3 ?

2) to downgrade 2.08 to 1.42.000 i think we must use HSPL2 ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Yes on both counts
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Superkent:
thanks a lot!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jonboyuk:
Guys, I have a "normal" Leo, as in the first one that was released. I used the first iteration of HSPL and ignored 0.2. Now there's 3rd one, it is wise/useful for me to use?

Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] lorezz:
a simple question:i have 1.66.408 (Ita) rom and i want to flash the last artemis rom,so,have i to flash hspl2....?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
That all depends on which hspl version you want to have. Cotulla suggests tryign to match the spl version to the rom base. Some roms are still based on the Euro 1.72 base and in that case you would need to use HSPL2 in order to get 1.66.hspl. The TMOUS based roms will use 2.08.hspl, in which case you can use either HSPL2 or HSPL3.

I must admit I never saw any major difference between using HSPL1 (1.42.hspl) and HSPL2 (2.08.hspl). the major advantage that HSPL2/3 has over HSPL1 is the ease of switching back to stock spl - there is no need to flash the stock rom via sd card to overwrite spl version as this can be done via HSPL2/3.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] cb1100r:
than'k you :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] drblow:
Please help! I have read through the thread and not seen anyone else with this issue - I can't get HSPL3 to connect to my phone. When I run the .exe file, my phone goes into bootloader (and USB appears bellow the 3 colours) but HSPL3 just hangs waiting and eventually gives me a critical error saying it cannot connect to USB.

I have had this issue since I flashed a stock rom a while back, and my phone will not stop at the screen to install an image from SD card, it just always goes back to the 3 colour bootloader screen. I was hoping that I could install HSPL 3 to remedy that problem, but it won't connect.

I am not running a firewall (other than windows one, which I have tried switching off). My phone has HSLP 1.42 on it already & I have been flashing custom roms via ruu since I can't get into the SD card method anymore.

Hair currently being torn out ... help before I lose what precious little hair I have left! :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
use a usb port around back of the pc, not built into the front, or through hubs and such. hspl is picky what ports it will use.

also. enter bootloader manually yourself, then connect usb, wait for "serial" to become "usb" then right click hspl3.exe and "run as administrator"
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] drblow:
Thanks mate, that got it installed. Still can't get to the rom image install screen, on bootloader mode it just flashes the screen for a second then reverts back to 3 colour bootloader screen. I have been reading about the issue as much as possible, sounds like it just won't recognise my SD card as having a leoimg.nbh file on it - everything else on the SD card works ok though. No other SD cards to check it with so still in the dark on that one.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
dont worry about it, sd card flashing has needles risks, and the flash itself takes 3 - 4 times as long.

Flash over usb, simpler, safer.

As to the card, if its a 16gb then im not surprised, most reports suggest most 16gb, and some 8gb cards can be tempremental.

If its a smaller card, say 2gb, they come factory formatted to FAT, not FAT32, and although the phone will see and use it when it's running, it wont flash from it until it's reformatted to FAT32.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] groggit:
I've had no luck installing HSPL 2.08 on my UK Leo using both HSPL2 and HSPL3. I have tried 3 rear USB's, disables FW/AV, rebooted everything and am still at a loss.

Everything is fine before the installation, until after the phone enters the bootloader and the progress bar on DFT's HSPL3 shoots up and down and it becomes pretty apparent nothing is happening. No error code appears. A soft reset restores her to normal, confirming very little happened in the install.

Any suggestions?

I updated my phone on tmobile.com a few weeks ago...........Where do i get instructions to downgrade from it??

I dont see anything saying i can do it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
the only thing you didnt mention is right click hspl3.exe and choose 'run as administrator'. Do this even if you are logged in to an admin account.

Other than that, , , got a different pc you can use for 2 minutes?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] groggit:
After playing around with my old laptop and updating it to WMDC 6.1 HSPL finally installed. The only discerning differences were my laptop is x86, whereas my desktop is x64 and of course the USB controllers are different.

Does this mean I should use my laptop when hacking my HD2 as to avoid future issues or is just something with this program?

Thank you for your help with my problem and helping this forum out in general.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Cupra TDI:
I just installed HSPL3, but I am unsure which version I should have used:

During the installation of HSPL 3 there were 2 install options for me to choose from:

1. 2.08

2. 2.08 HSPL

Where is the difference? Is 1. the original HTC Bootloader and 2.08 HSPL the "cracked" one to install any OS? I installed 2.08 HSPL now.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
flashing should be fine, its hspl that has issues.

correct. choose the .hspl one.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] anas8219:
Still locked

Hi all,

I just flashed my rom and installed the HSPL but my phone still locked and would not take any sim card. Any help.:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
hspl unlocks the rom,. not the sim card. you will have to use the pay websites or ask your operator to unlock it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] byAGM:
After a critical error with HSPL my HD2 cant start except in bootloader mode (after being without battery during few minutes) but I cant put any ROM.

I think with the original Spanish Movistar ROM it will be able to boot. I have been trying to find the original spanish Movistar original ROM all the evening.

Someone knows where can I get or any way to get into another rom?

Thanks!

hello everyone,

i've see a Version 11 of the Windows LIVE programm at my marketplace, but if i install it only version 10.7 will be installed.

On Microsofts Page i can only download version 10.7.

Has somebody a version higher than 10.7 on his device?
[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:
Seeing the same thing with facebook.

Which forgot to change the version number in the actual app (though it looks no different).

BHut I installed 11 windows live, and it still says 10.7, but it is 11, because it looks completely different.
[HD2 General] Hassan99:
before they "released" the 11 version a version named 10,9 was at the marketplace :(

i don't understand microsofts logic
[HD2 General] sunking101:
Be careful installing 'latest versions' thinking they are better. The latest desktop version of MSN is *horrid*.
[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:
You mean version 2009?

Whats "horrid" about it? The layout, the backgrounds, the ability to actually change more of it without plugins like messengerplus?

It's on the marketplace. Just do a search on the word live.

I wish that I could solve it with SR, but I think that the server still see me as connected and there is nothing I can do from the PDA.

Not all users see the same content on the marketplace, it depends on your region.

Yep, and I don't know who's region it's on, so I'd suggest someone searches ;)

hi there, this version is even on my german hd2... since i get it...

It's not actually the same version as the one on the device. It appears to be another faux-pas on the part of Microsoft (they recently updated the facebook app, but not the version number!)

I installed it earlier and it's a much nicer version. Just hope I don't come across the bugs mentioned earlier!

I dont care if this gets erased but I cant take it any more people using my graphics and not paying respect to who made it. I have had a week of seeing my rom get ripped and look in this section and everyone is using my stuff and not giving credit I dont mind but put from who and where you got it.

XDA you need to check this crap its really not fare,oh and I dont make this for others to make themes get donations and credit for my work.
[Android Themes] nonchalant_joe:
Again? :confused:
[Android Themes] drpfenderson:
I fully understand your reasoning behind wanting credit.

However, it's not really the responsibility of XDA to patrol themes and see who is using who's graphics. My theme was originally a cobble of lots of other people's designs....and I made sure you (and the other devs) got the credit you all deserved. However, some of the images I grabbed from each person may have come from others - and sometimes did. A polite PM or post in my thread, and I made sure they were given due.

That's all it requires. I'm sure no one is "stealing" your work and not putting your name out of malice. Just post a polite message, or send a PM. This is an open development community. These things happen. Newbies have to get used to the scene - like we all did when we first started.
[Android Themes] manup456:
Its not the fact that people use man but themers are getting stuff and paying credit to the theme they got it from and in a nut shell its from me. I am not not that but my work takes hours after hours and copy and paste takes a few min to do its a slap in the face but you know what if people want to come up that way its cool. I cant even believe this s#it so its not xda prob that they have themes and roms that are hacked off peoples hard work and putting out bunk.
[Android Themes] cloverdale:
I believe there are at least a few of us on here that use our own work, and otherwise are certain to give credit. I for one have not used one thing from your theme (though it was always a favorite of mine).

we all know you are a theming machine. but i feel you on this one
[Android Themes] nonchalant_joe:

i agree, using peoples work without credit sucks, although i think sometimes people just forget or something and a simple reminder gets the job done.
