Great Post - Super Helpful

Your post is terrific. It explained everything so well. The first time I modded, I use Chuckie Rom and Darkstone Froyo. Both crashed totally after a few days and I was afraid I'd bricked my phone. Reading your post again made me feel comfortable going back and starting all over. Thanks.

Get Back To Stock

OK, i did HSPL1024, flashed some Roms, but had alot of problems with those cooked Roms. Or it is just my device.......if so, i will return that thing back to T-Mo. I want to get back to the stock T-MO US Rom. I found some links, but they are ALL DEAD!!! How the hell do i get back? Any help, please, pretty please.... :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] FreakyFerret:
Fuzio, the stock ROMs posted were a previous version of the one on the TMOUS HD2, not the shipped one. We're still waiting to find a shipped one.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fuzio1963:
Thx for the info. I already found this "ruu_leo_1_5_tmous_2.10.531.0_radio_signed_15.34.50.07u_2.08.50.08_2_ship",

last night. Installed and all problems are gone! :D I think, stock T-MoUS rom is just perfect for now and i will stick to that. Until there is a "stable" one posted by cooks sometime in near future. :cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jrip777:
Which ROMs did you try just for info purposes. I was ADDICTED to flashing on my Rhodium before I just got the HD2. And I also like the tmo ROM so far. EXCEPT I like wm 6.5.5 SOOO much better then 6.5. But im also worried that once I start flashing that I wont find something thats runs as smoothley.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fuzio1963:
I did it too on my TP2, got almost all! NRG Roms, some At0ms, Miri, Agent7 and few others. I still have like 100s files on my computer.........then i got myself HD2. I got NRG Energy Roms of course, cus i thought that it is going to be as flawless as it was on TP2. But it was not. Mainly freezing issues on random situations. I tried few of those ROMs, then i tried Miri`s Elegante or something. This one was almost OK, but i got My Location weather problem. Oh well, i got very much used to 6.5.x, bit it looks like i have to go back and say "sorry" to 6.5. So, for now i will stick to that T-MoUS stock Rom, just for a little while, i very much hope, until someone (hopefully NRG) will come up with stable ver of Energy 6.5.x........:)

HSPL2 RUN.exe PROBLEM

So I have the SPL 2.08.000 for the T-Mobile version of HTC HD2.

My phone was active sync, the tri-colors came up and then all of the sudden the installation failed and active sync disconnected.

Phone was frozen in tri-color mode so I just took out battery for about 30 min.

I also took the simcard out. (if that helps?)

Please tell me what I should do now?!

Thank you

(also I never got the option of choosing which SPL to use when I run the installation) Is that a problem?

(also i didnt have the Run as Administrator option either) -it just said open-

/**************************************************************************************************************************

| I figured out the problem! lol, my stupid phone would stop syncing cause I adjusted the backlight to go dim and turn off really soon. haha! XD I got it to work now!|

Backing up settings

If I flash a ROM is there a way to backup the settings. Like mail account settings so I dont have to set up each account again? I dont care about the emails themselves just the accounts. Same with voicemail settings ( i use youmail and my missed calls get forwarded) and some program settings like my phone blacklist/whitelist app.

Using HardSPL2_1024 can return your SPL back to stock version but if you want to return everything back to stock then you need to flash a Tmobile STOCK rom via microsd card. That will put everything back how it was when you first got it.

hello all. coming form the G1 and i was an HTCClay user. I recently got a brand new HD2 from a tmobile rep.

My goal here is to get to froyo 2.2 on the HTC HD2 USA version.

my radio version is 2.10.50.26 and from what i understand that is fine for flashing a new winmo ROM and for flashing the android ROM.

The question i have is after looking at a few different SPL/HSPL threads im a bit confused.

The [HSPL/HSPL2] HowTo flash everything ;) thread says the following:

To install/uninstall this HSPL there must be any SPL version from this list on your device:

SPL 1.42.0000 SPL 1.42.HSPL

SPL 1.62.0000

SPL 1.66.0000 SPL 1.66.HSPL

SPL 2.07.0000

SPL 2.08.0000 SPL 2.08.HSPL

my device does not have any of those. Mine has SPL-2.10.0000

Do i need to do anything differently here?

Other info:

PB81120 SS-B3

SPL-2.10.0000 8G XE

I am grateful for any help.

Thanks.

Im guessing you didnt even read the first post in this thread or you would see that step2 gives details on installing HardSPL3 which covers phones with SPL2.10.

yeah sorry mark. I did read it. I just get jittery when doing stuff like this lol. Kinda like bungee jumping for the first time. I'll read though it again i guess i got confused going back and forth between the 2 flashing hspl threads.

I need your help

Hi, mskip seeing that nobody can help me or know about this problem, i will need ur help in this situation, this is the second htc hd2 tmous that i have, the previous one had the problem of reset itsef when watching youtube videos and was getting worse like reset itsef when surfing the web or making a call, and what i did was just flashed a couple of custom roms (core cell evo) and (elegancia) and run task29 only; after having this problem i tried flash stock rom but same problem, so i returned the phone. now with this phone same thing again as soon as i got the phone i installed 2.08 HSPL after that flash core cell evo again (v1,v2,v3), task29 between new versions and i flashed kumars too. that's the only problem that i have, the rest works fine, i can boot into android with no problems at all; i just realize that my phone overheat since i got evo rom maybe i'm not sure but now it is, so maybe that could damage some hardware of the phone or the rom i have need too much of some part of the phone that makes it really warm and when the phone is overheat the phone reset

itsef to prevent any damage itself!!!

this is frustating, i don't know what to do, what do you think; i need your help. thanks in advanced.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mskip:
The only real thing I can sugest is to maybe try a different rom to see if yo uget the same results. Flash the latest released stock Rom for your phone and see if you get the same results as the Evo Rom gave you. Also try a well established Rom such as Duttys Creme De La Creme (compatable with TMOUS HD2's) and check for faults.

Is the phone getting hot just in Android or in WindowsMobile also?

In certain situations the HD2 can get very hot but I dont think there is danger of any hardware failure because of it.

If your phone is constantly resetting with the stock rom loaded and nothing else installed then its certainly a case for taking it back to where you got it. A Stock phone shouldnt do that.

You dont have to worry about performing a Task29 on your phone as it wont make any difference in your situation.

Let me know how you get on.

Mark.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] htcp85:
The phone got hot on windows Rom only for now. I don't try Android too much but so far is good. and like you said the phone get hot in certain situations so main concern is the phone reset itself, i will try stock ROM or duttys rom and let see what happen. One more thing, i can flash Duttys creme de la creme rom, like any other rom because i saw it in another section and not in TMOUS roms, and this rom is compatible with android?; i will let you know what happened, and thanks for reply.

"Flashing Via MicroSD Card

NOTE (PLEASE READ): If you flash a Stock Rom via microSD Card then it will overwrite your HardSPL with a stock SPL included in the nbh file. If you flash a v2.01 or later Rom (with SPL2.*) you will NOT be able to reinstall HardSPL onto your device and could end up bricking it. This does not apply to custom roms as they do not include an SPL. BE CAREFUL!!

1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)

2. Download your prefered Rom from the LEO Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your PC

3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh

4. Copy the LEOIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card

5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone

6. Reset the device while pressing the volume down button to enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top

7. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update

8. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device."

I did this, but when get to the tri color screen it stays there and says serial on the white part and does nothing......any ideas??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
won't work with the stock 16gb sd card. 2gb or 4gb for best results.

if you are trying to remove hspl and flash back to stock...

1 run hspl3 and choose 2.08.0000

2 flash stock rom over usb.

3 sit back and smile at a job well done.

Loads of thanks to mskip for coming with such nice and useful thread, just for T-Mobile US Leo phones.

I would like to load Energy ROM on my phone. I don't want to end up bricking it. So looking for expert advice before I do anything with it.

This is my phone:

* T-Mobile US HD2

* 1024MB Flash size

* 576MB RAM

* SIM Unlocked by T-Mobile (got it done yesterday)

* Radio: 2.10.50.26

Boot loader shows the below info:

* PB81120 HX-B3

* SPL-2.10.0000 8G XE

* I know that I have to flash HSPL3.

* Do I need flash some other Radio before I Load Energy's Latest ROM? (Energy recommends not needed)

* If needed, which Radio is compatible with my current configuration?

Thank you!

Hello I want to be clear before I try any upgrades or Flashing to my phone, dont want a paperweight. I currently have a TMOUS HTC HD2

SPL 2.10.0000

ROM 2.13.531.1 (90963)

Radio 2.10.50.26

I have installed on my SD Card the

Android build 1.3 JDMS with the latest and stable CyanogenMod-6.0.1 and Nightly

, which seems to work well except for when using the phone (robotic voice). I was told to upgrade the radio to 2.12 or better. My questions is first I need to HSPL or HSPL3 (which one) and then install the radio version (Leo_2.14.50.04) using the CustomRUU? I guess my confusion is when running the HSPL/HSPL3 is this just performing the unlock allowing me to install the radio? As I assume my ROM is ok. Thanks for any help with this.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kungfubass1961:
you will need to install the hspl3 then a custom radio then a custom rom, heres a youtube in how to make sure you follow the steps, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVoCi0qkrBg <<< and thats not me lol i just ran into that video wish helped me out in how to, take note also if you need to go back to a stock rom you will need to remove the hspl3 to do that check this >>> 5) Uninstallation

Only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from SD card.

- Take any “RUU_signed.nbh” from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.

- Rename it to “leoimg.nbh”

- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button. now to do this you most format your micro sd card frist >>>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5fxOKdmmv8 <<< note you can always use another sd card to do this if you want and also make sure whe n its done unfat32 the sd card and your good to go,
