After bad flash, can't flash new radio (RSA FAIL) - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
i've been reading this forum for one month,
It was the day I decided to upgrade my HTC HD2, and someone disconnected the usb cable during the process.
Don't talk to me about that ;-)
The problem is I can't flash any rom radio into the phone.
OS ROMS work.
I read carefully a lot of posts here, I can say I have exactly the same problems as _Juster_ from this post :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618084
My phone is a french HTC HD2, Orange branded.
I successfully installed HSPL 2.08
Making upgrades using USB is very difficult, it is very unstable (communication errors, no response from the phone....) .
I tried on windows 7 pro and win xp sp3 and it is the same.
I then created a goldcard, that I'm using to flash directly in the phone. It is stable, but when flashing a radio rom I always get the "ERROR 00018003, RSA FAIL error".
I learned from xda that the issue can be solved by flashing the original stock radio rom from Orange.
I downloaded a lot of shipped roms from Orange, or HTC.
Always RSA_FAIL.
I'm maybe doing something wrong, or this is a hardware problem....
a few questions for you folks :
1/ It seems that the original Orange stock rom is a 1.43
Must I have the 1.42 HSPL to flash it ?
Is the version of your HSPL important, when you want to flash a rom ? can I flash whatever rom with any HSPL ?
2/ using a Glodcard with HSPL already installed.
when you enter on the bootloader (vol down + power) you arrive on the HSPL tri color screen, displaying HSPL 2.08....
Are you sure the Goldcard is being used ?
How to be sure of that ?
I think (I may be wrong) when you enter the bootloader mode You are on HSPL mode.
What I do to enter the goldcard mode :
I just press power,
I have a "Software update failed message"
Then I arrive to the "Loading..." message
With the name of the ROM i'm trying to flash
LEOIMG.nbh
RADIO V2
Press power to start update
Am I right ?
Thanks for reading this and helping me.

is there other Tasks like task 29 you are aware of ?
Task 29 formats the phone ?
is there a way to partition the phone or to diagnose if there's a problem ?

what do we know about that RSA_FAIL ?
I assume the RSA proccessing is to check whether the RSA Key of the radio rom matches the phone's one ?
Is there a software way to bypass that RSA check ?
I've downloaded 22 radio roms (from orange and HTC) + several others (shipped & cooked)
I always get a RSA FAIL message when I try to flash.
any clue ? something ?

Can't really make out if you tried it from your post, but you could try to flash back to stock by using the SD flash method. Just put the leoimg.nbh in the root of the SD and boot while holding the vol down button. That way you go back to stock spl, rom and radio.
Check the sticky in the ROM development section which refers to the whole HSPL and how to flash everything topic. That should fill you in on HSPL.

I already flashed 22 radio roms and a dozen of full roms (os + radio) using SD CARD.
As the usb is very unstable I'm using the sd card method to flash, which is also a goldcard.
the problem is I ALWAYS get the RSA FAIL message (error 00018003) at the end of the radio flashing process.
This guy : forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618084
had the same problem but with un unbranded phone and had it solved by flashing a cooked rom he randomly choosed.
To understand the situation,
my phone is an Orange branded one, what is the difference between a branded and an unbranded phone, assuming they both have the same HSPL ?
thx

Just sold my HD2.
Seems like some questions don't have answers....

what was the problem? íf i understand you right, it even worked..but you couldnt flash another radio...
why dont you use it further?
DN41

The phone wasn't able to boot
It was stuck at the white HTC logo,
After the failure of a radio flash, I was not able to flash it again. (RSA FAIL)
I read all the posts about this problem in xda, tried everything, nothing worked.

sorry...
so who bought it? how much did you get?
someone who needed a new lcd or so?
DN41

150€ , it was in a very good condition

You don't just rename the whole update,you extract the ruu_signed.nbh file and rename that.

RSA FAIL
I had the same problem with my polaris (htc touch cruise - pola160). I managed to get rid of the problem by downgrading the radio rom.
I couldn't find my old one, but I was able to find the highest version older than my old one in the forum. So I first downgraded the radio using the sd card, after that the rom I was trying to install in the first place worked.
Thx to pcarvalho for this "fix" : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3645124&postcount=1 - the "Important Note:" section (always read the small print ).
Hope this helpes.
PS: Sorry if this is too late for some...

having this exact same problem, radio rsa fail, can't even flash a stock rom.
did anyone solve this?

Put the back of the phone in front of an AC in cold for 5 minutes, and keeping it always in front of the AC try to install.
If you are able to do that, send it back to the warranty.

Hello,
I have the same problem!
long time ago I had HTC devices, but few days ago I bought HD2 and it was installed android. Is unable to start or when they try to load a ROM eror occurs.
phone has only a white scrin.
error occurs mostly when upgrade Radio ver. I somehow managed NRGZ image but again not boot system.
Task 29 also comes to 19% and stops with the error.
I have a feeling that the real problem is the radio version. (00,018,003 Radio Fail)
I do not know what is the original ROM.
IMEI: 3526 6604 8712 295
SPL 2.08.HSPL
any help came good

HD2 Broken after bad flash?

I have a problem:
I flashed my hd2 from a stocked rom 1.42 dutch version, with hspl 1.42. I installed a custom rom from: HTC HD2 Laurentius WWE 21891UltimatePOWER.
it worked fine for 2 or 3 days and then it stocked, i reseted the phone and
When i turn on my HD2, i get a white screen. and it doest go away. Even after softreset (volume button down in bootloader)
When i go in to bootloader i see this screen:
Pb81100 hx-bc
Spl-1.42.hspl xe
0x05
Cotullahspl 0x30

When i try to instal a rom by going in to bootloader en then start in win xp the update wont start, it stocked at 0 %
Then i tried to flash a orginal romt by sd:
it stocked at 7 % and i get this screen:

- Then i tried to flash a radio rom by activesync, in xp it wont start,
- i tried flashing by sd and it stocked on 98%
- I tried different to install a rom and radio rom by vista, but also no succes
- I tried task 29 (by the Attached Task29 into a single exe.) to erease all data from the phone, but in windows by activesync it wont start
i tried al the above from windows 7.
Is there anyone that can help me, please i getting very desperate.
VERY VERY IMPORTANT! Try and read 2-3 times what is written here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
Only afterwards proceed to the following :
First of all....try and use Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Second of all....do not try to use task 29 because its a bit more complicated and it involves some drivers and so on!
Use this little thing here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5848003&postcount=19 and after its completed....flash a proper radio something like 2.08.50.xx which you can find on Radio dedicated section here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
After all these....flash a custom ROM but be careful to be one suited with your radio! Which is a radio appliable for most of custom ROMS BUT be VERY careful!
Another thing.....do not flash from SD Card....Use the CustomRUU tool and flash it via ActiveSync!
Do you get any particular error message? When in bootloader mode, does "usb" show at the bttom of the screen? If so, try moving to a different usb port, preferably at the rear of the pc, or try different cable or even different pc. If still no luck, try uninstalling and then re-installing the latest version of Activesync.
The White Screen issue sounds like the incorrect radio version for the rom. I'm not familar with the details of the particular rom, but there are certain rom/radio combinations that will do that if they do not match eg running a 2.10 based rom with a x.xx.51.xx radio. The phone works intially until a reset and then hangs.

Thanks for the replay
I tried, flashing by activesync. i flashed it the first time by hspl (the tread you link to) and then by activesync. But like i said, the hd2 stops at a white screen, so i tried by every possible way i could think of. Also i tried task 39 by the tool you mention, but it still does not work.
But i will correct my ts.
@clydeb1
I tryd to flash different radioroms, but if it try by activesync it wont start and by sd-flash it stocks at 98%, but i will try a different active sync
Okay,
I tried the following options:
- I installed a newest activesync and tried to instal an new rom under windows xp. The update stocked at 0% and i tried to install radio rom, with the same results
- I installed the windows mobile on windows 7, and tried the same as in windows xp, and still the same results.
Then i tried flashing every rom from the site by the sd-method (after every bad flash i formatted the sd-card with fat32)
With the sd method the phone stocked at 99% and then gives the next images:
00018003
LEOIMG.nbh - Fail
Radio_V2Fail
Update terminate
update fail

IS there any one how has a solution for this problem
Ok....try from the beginning!
1.Get from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433 HSPL2_RUN.zip (extract the content in a folder named hspl ).2
2. For Windows 7 you need Windows Mobile Device Center ( WMDC ) NOT ActiveSync!! Get it here http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
3. Make sure in WMDC settings the USB connection is checked!
4. Take out your battery....insert it again! Start your phone while keeping pressed the Vol Down button! This will get you into bootloader! The screen should display USB on the lower part of the screen! (evidently connected to computer )
5. Flash HSPL2 select 2.08 version
6. Use that tool I recommended earlier.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3&postcount=19
7. Enter again the bootloader and flash a Radio ROM ( try 2.08.50.xx ) via WMDC!
8. Flash either NRGZ 21898 or Cleanex 21898 versions ( I recommend these in particular because they work with the radio mentioned above and are also stable ROMs ).
P.S. Take out your SD card and SIM card while performing all these steps!
Hope you will solve it!

Thanks for the advise
I did every step. The first problem is: WMDC doest say there is a connection, while windows 7 say there is a connection also i see usb in the lower part of the screen.
In the same sequence as you right above. the hspl2 says it worked fine, but when i reset the boatlooder still says it has hspl 1.42 in stead of 2.08. The tool you recommended did't start. and says update error.
do you know something else i could do (or anyone else)
Give the phone to someone who can get it to work??
Give me your SD-CARD serial number.
I'ma make a goldcard for you.
sd-card max to 4gb!
And then try flashing stock nld 1.66 rom using sd-card.
Because you tried to fix it flashing a 'original rom?' from sd I think I know what's your problem.
Did you use a Dutch shipped rom while trying to fix or a WWE one?
If you flash a shipped rom from storage card it restores the original SPL and removes HSPL !
Try flashing a Dutch shipped rom one more time from storage card, it will restore the original SPL made for your device.

@Korenbloem,
A simple hardreset would have fixed your issue as well.
Instead of all kind of panic experiments like mtty/ flashing radios/roms from sd you could have come to me and I would have helped you.
You flashed a very old rom from the rom archive but never the less that rom is intensivily tested by me and the beta team.
I have no idea what kind of software you installed/tweaks you did or anything else but also with installing the wrong software it could cause the rom not to boot anymore.
Sorry to tell you but these 'bricking' stories are mostly caused by unexperiened users and it
making me sad to see more people are opening threads like this blaming a rom and causing a panic reaction in public destroying our work.
I realy hope you fix your device and I will try to help you but this isn't a rom issue.

Thanks for the adivse, but i already tried that with an orginal rom, but i will try it again, mabey there is a difference with a shipped rom.
The first thing i did was a hard reset, but that did't worked. (the phone is in this shape for 1 month now).
Second. I am not blaming you or anyone. I flashed the wrong radio rom i think (cant remember witch one) And that is my own fault. I never wanna make the suggestion that it is because of youre rom.
I took a risk by flashing my phone. and i is my responsibility.
Edit: I tried a shipping rom nld. But it gives the same error as always, only after 7%. But thanks for the advise
@ Xmoo, First of al thank you that you want to help with a sollution. But what does that mean a goldcard and what are the consequences of using it.
Laurentius26 helped me with fixing my device.
The problem was the radio. and by flashing a factory rom from t-mobile, the hspl was reset to spl 2.00. After that he flashed a orginal shipped rom (the orignal one from my device). And the rom is fixed again SPL 1.66 is now on the device.
Laurentius thanks for al the help!!!!!
HD2 bricked?
Hi, I urgently need your help. I used my hd2 on a vodafone branded rom 1.44. Last week I installed a Vodafone NLD 1.72 rom , + froyostone 3.4 Rom,kernel 8.5 (with hspl). Yesterday my touchscreen has stopped fully .. . The next, I've been in touch with HTC and they will pick up my phone tomorrow for repair. I have to remove hspl ofcourse .. so I happily try to flash official vodafone rom from the SD card, did nothing 1.72, 1.48 seemed to do until I restart and got an ROM code error. What to do: ( I am pretty desperate now .. when you start you get an exclamation point and then 'not allow' and then the tricolor. Is this due to the lack of the original 1.44 ROM? Apologies for this begging post and my poor English but I hope that someone has a solution to unbrick this device so he can up picked by HTC.

Do you have a branded Leo? If so, enter bootloader (remove battery, press volume down, insert battery), connect via usb (maybe you have to wait for driver installation), start the latest *.exe from your operator/carrier...
same problem here flashing an old radio... and now, everytime i try to flash a factory rom ship (RUU_Leo_HTC_PTG_1.66.410.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship) on 1% get the error 244 - invalid model id.
I tried to hard reset and now the message on the bottom of screen show me the right factory radio (2.06.51.07) of this rom but stays on this screen forever anyone knows what can i do? please help... tks a lot!

Maybe it is because you flashed the wrong stock rom.
You should find the CORRECT STOCK ROM for your device, otherwise you need a gold card

The 1.66 ROM you posted above has radio version 2.06.51.07 with it. So have you considered trying to flash that radio version and then flash the ROM. I know if you get the ROM to flash it will flash that radio anyway. But you seem to think you flashed a wrong radio so just thinking out loud here.

[Q] How to "unbrick" HD2?

Hello,
at first I like to say, that I've read lots of threads concerning freezes, false flashed roms, etc. but I don't found a thread which deals with my problem. In fact of this I opended a new thread.
What is the problem?
- The HD2 hangs up with a white screen while booting.
What things are still working?
- I'm able to go into bootloader mode (Vol-Down + Power)
- I'm able to get a USB Connection through the bootloader mode
The self analyzed main problem
- I've got a broken Radio Rom
- I've got SPL 1.42 (no HSPL)
What I've tried
- I tried to flash a Rom due to CustomRUU (Cooked & Ship Rom)
-- Effect: No success. Hang's up at 0% (I think due to SPL)
- I tried to flash a ROM by SD-Card over bottloader.
-- Effect: It load's the setup. Trys to install, but fails with the Radio part. (Radio Update failed)
- I'm able to get in MTTY an do a "Task 29". And try to flash again.
-- Effect: Task 29 works well. But flashing still fails at RadioROM Update.
- I've tried to get a connection to the WMDC and try to flash over UpdateUtility
-- Effect: The WMDC doesn't recognize my HD2. (Even if the bootloader menu shows up a USB connection.)
- I tried to get HSPL (1.42, 1.66, 2.08). I tried all versions. HSPL, HSPL2 & HSPL 3.
-- Effect: HSPL finds my HTC. I can select the version. But while flashing HSPL it stop with an critical error. (Flow: 00000006 Errorcode: 00000014)
So is there anybody how knows a way to restore my RadioROM? I tried lots of things but now I really don't know what to do.
I hope you can understand me (incause of my english skills) and that you'll have some more ideas.
With best regards,
Raffi
Lets wait for the pro's advice!
But if u can access bootloader, not all is lost.. and HD2 is not bricked
I had nearly the same Problem. The only difference was that i could install HSPL.
Something you can try: disconnect the battery for some hours and then flash from SD-Card. After some tries i got mine back to work

that's correct, it doesn't need to connect to wmdc, when they say to get an activesync connection, they only mean a usb connection. if you start the update whilst it IS connected to wmdc, the first thing it does is disconnect and then put the phone into bootloader. you are helping things along by entering bootloader yourself. a little confusing.
that being said, i suspect it won't work. i've seen a few threads where the radio prevents anything flashing, and they never seem to conclude to anyone's satisfaction.
i would probably go for the goldcard method, but you might need a working winmo phone to get the sd cid. an eveningsreading ahead of ya.

I really don't know, but I think I've got a goldcard. So I've 2 micro-SDs. With the first I'm unable to flash anything. The second I made goldcard some flashs ago. I really thought Goldcard would be only work for one flash. But with the second sd-card, which I made goldcard once ago, I'm able to initiate a flash. (But it stops at the Radio-Update.)
Question 1:
How to proof if it's a Goldcard.
Question 2:
I've heard about "JTAG". A saw that it's a piece of hardware. Are there any reports, at this moment, about successful repairs of HD2s with JTAG?
1 no idea, but i do know it stays gold until you format it.
2 there are a few threads about it, look in the tmous section, there are one or two in there too.
i thought it might not help.
have a browse through previous posts by xmoo, he has helped some situations regarding a stuck radio, though no promises.

I hope you can understand me (incause of my english skills) and that you'll have some more ideas.
With best regards,

Flash through usb your mama rom, I mean the rom which had the phone originally from factory.

I had nearly the same Problem. The only difference was that i could install HSPL.
Something you can try: disconnect the battery for some hours and then flash from SD-Card. After some tries i got mine back to work

I've formatted the card, but then there the question why I'm able to start a flash with these ex-gold-card and why I'm unable to flash with the other card. Both are 2GB and both are fresh formatted.

Nice tip, but to my detriment i don't know which version exactly was the shipped one. I received one of the first HD2 in germany from tmob. I think it was something 'bout 1.43.But I really don't know. And you're sure that the original ROM will refresh the broken Radio?
is one sd card bigger than 4gb? 8 and especially 16gb cards are not much use for flashing.

Like already said, both are 2GB SD-cards.
I think the problem arised because you tried to flash a custom ROM without HSPLing (or Gold Carding or SSPLing) first.
You don't need the origional shipped ROM, all you need is to go to HTC Germany's site and download a T-Mobile ROM. You can either put your phone into Bootloader Mode, connect to your computer and run the ROM exe file or use the SD Card method.
It should flash properly and you should have the T-Mobile Germany ROM, RADIO and SPL.
In future if you want to flash a ROM, then read the chef's instructions. If you are sure you want to flash that ROM, then read the instructions again.

This is a solution for sure, I had the same problem.
Search in tmobile site or ask them for their first german rom.
Ok, I downloaded a Original Tmo-Germany ROM from HTC. But same errors. Over Update-Utility >> Error 262 at 0% after some minutes. Over SD-card: Update starts. Progressbar runs. And then >> Radio_ failed.

You must try the old-first tmo german rom that they loaded in the phone.Not just a tmo german rom!
When I had the same problem and I flashed a current rom, the problem remained until I flashed the first old rom.
Ok, I got the first and original rom. But it also fails at the Radio Update. But i found a friend of my friend who's got a HD2, too. So i'll try it with the goldcard method...

[Q] Not able to go back to Stock ROM from WP7 - SOLVED

Hello,
I loaded the WP7 yesterday and then wanted to go back to stock ROM today. While I am able to enter bootloader:
It says:
LEO1000 HX BC (2K)
NSPL0.96.2250.0
MicroP (LED) 0x05
MicroP (TOUCH) NA
Now when I run the stock ROM it starts the update and then stops at 1%.
I have tried both 3.14 and 1.66 ROM and in both it says, Error (244): Invalid model ID (This update utility cannot be used for your PDA. Please check your update utility.
Any solutions?
Flash android?

I will try flashing android and see if that works. I haven't come across the thread you are mentioning but have come across the Android flash thread where they explain in the details other issues but nothing relating to this HSPL critical error Bad model ID.
BTW, I even tried flashing from SD Card but the the bootloader sayd 'SD NONE'. Did format the card to FAT32

Where did you get the download from? It seems to have completely altered your model id in bootloader. You should either have PB81100, PB81110 or PB81120. To my knowledge those are the only model id's that hspl will work on. This is a very old thread I started which allowed hspl to run and bypass the device id check. You may want to try the steps there to see if they help. You will need to modify the steps slightly - in step 2 instead of entering "PB81110" enter "LEO1000". Please note this carries no guarantees and is at your own risk.

Seriously, where did you get your download from, that must have seriously screwed with your phone to change your model id and spl version like that. I installed WP7 yesterday and have just safely reverted back to Android without any hassles. Do you recall what values you had before the flash?
If there is a solution it ain't gonna be a simple one and will need some serious tech help, which is outside of my levels. Even Googling the spl version only returns this thread.
This (or something similar) happened to me. I powered down my phone but did not take out the battery and it restarted the part that loads the win 7 rom while I still got the screen with the coloured bands on.
Try, taking out the battery for 10 seconds or so then put it in while holding the volume down key and powering up.
Got stock ROM back in first time but kiss goodbye to the data on your SD card. I had to use a Canon camera to reformat the card to get back the 14GB it was hiding.

This WORKED. Thanks a TON splinters69.
For future uses, this is what I did.
1. Took out the battery for about 30 seconds.
2. Put one of the LEOIMG.NBH on storage card
3. After putting the battery held the volume down button and pressed power button.
4. It went into HSPL mode straight away and started loading the win 6.5 OS.
You saved the day Splinters69. Thanks to Clydeb1 too for that modelIDcheckbypass.

Yea. It was scary but the only good thing was that I was able to get into MAGDLR so I knew that probably I could install another NAND Android ROM onto it. However, what I wanted was to go back to WinMO 6.5 and then re-learn.
Amazing what knowledge pool we have here, isn't it?
scary that. I think we all fear that at one point or another. thanks for the insight as to how u sorted it.when u said u put a rom back on was it a stock or custom rom.
It was a custom NRGZ ROM.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
cheers for that
Hi all !
I Had the exact same problem after installing WP7 and trying to go back to 6.5 :
Boot Screen was displaying :
LEO1000 HX BC (2K)
NSPL0.96.2250.0
MicroP (LED) 0x05
MicroP (TOUCH) NA
Whenever i try to flash back to any stock / signed ROM it failed at 1%
splinters69 technic is working perfect .
1> Switch Off you phone
2> Remove Battery & wait for 30secs
3> Hold Vol Down + Place Battery back in + Press Power Btn
4> BootScreen Should display your previous version of HSPL.
5> Dont need GoldenCArd , just use RUU FLASH MODE
Thx guys !
I installed MagLDR 1.12 and WP7... after restarting the phone, it kept reseting after about 15 seconds of DFT screen, so i couldn't flash another rom.
After that i took out the baterry and flashed a 6.5 rom and then flashed MagLDR 1.13 and WP7. This time it worked.
Thanks everybody, for posting such helpful things.
Hi all, tried the above mention steps but still couldn't flash it back to stock rom.
It always stuck at 0%, anyone can help?
Is flashing back to WinMo from WP7 the same as from NAND android?

[q] help please! By flashing hspl

Hy!
I did a stupid thing, with the following. I copyed an LEOIMG.nbh file to my formatted sd card, so I get an SPL-1.42.0000, but I can't flash any HSPL to my device, because the HSPL setup writes out USB connection error. Neighter can I flash for example the official 1.66 rom, the installation stops after 1%, and writes INVALID VENDER ID. What can I do?
Very siple but you need lots of time for it. The rom you flashe has spl 3.03 on it and so it doesn't allow you to flash any other spl on it. What you can do is you have to search for old stock roms in the native language of your phone. As long as the phone keeps giving you error when trying to flash a stockrom with you sd card, it means you have not yet gotten the right stockrom for you phone so you have to try with different old stockroms till you get the right one.
After that. you'll be able to flash whatever you like. Hope it helps.
But remember, you need time and patience.

You can also download HSPL 4 and use it to downgrade your SPL. To do this manualy put your HD2 into bootloader by holding the volume down button and pressing the power(end) butom momentarily. Once in bootloader connect your HD2 to your computer via USB cable wait until you see USB in the white bar of thd bootloader and run the HSPL 4 on your computer. It will ask you which SPL or HSPL you wish go flash select the proper SPL version to flash to your HD2 and you should be good to go. Hint the SPL version will have zeros at the end of them and the HSPL version will not. Example SPL 2.08.0000 HSPL 2.08. Hope this helps.

Hi. I have the same pronblem. I have a UK HD2 that was originally on Tmobile. I flashed 2.08HSPL using HSPL4 & upgraded the ROM to the standard WWE_3.14. A long story short... after playing around with SD Android & a few other utilities I wanted to make a clean start, so my plan was to use HSPL4 to remove the HSPL before then re-installing it & reflashing the ROM. Unfortunately I now seem to be stuck in SPL2.08.0000. HSPL4 just gives the same error:

Did you place the leoimg.nbh on the root of your SD card? Also was tbe dile you renamed originaly named RUU_signed.nbh?

Yes on both counts... I've even tried a complete 'long' reformat of the SD card first using the Panasonic SD Formatter, before putting the leoimg.nbh at the root.
I'm guessing that my stupid mistake is downgrading to SPL2.08.0000 whilst having a generic version of the 3.14 ROM installed. I guess I should have downgraded the ROM to an original Tmobile one first...
Could i ask what operating system you guys are using cos this problem could have less to do with the phone than it has to do with the operating system on the pc. I was trying to flash some roms on some old devices using Windows 7 but this didn't seem to work but it magically worked when i used Windows xp. I hope this works.
About the wrong Vendor problem, this just means the rom flashed is not recognized by the phone as the official one, i also had that problem and after flashing a official rom in the language of my phone, the problem was solved. I used the 1.66 rom so that i could flash hspl or else it might be impossible to do so.
Or as someone suggested you might try the hspl4 (never knew that existed) but try using Windows xp and if the problem persists try reinstalling your operating system (on your pc). I know it a lot of work but its just to rule out that the problem is from the pc.
Another thing i want to make sure of is if the phone is working normally with the rom on it or is there no rom at all?

Hi. Thanks for the input. The problem is getting even more frustrating! I've tried buying a new 4GB micro SD card (both are class 4). I have tried both TMO_UK_1.72 & TMO_UK_1.43. Both ROMs were downloaded from HTC using the correct phone's serial, so they should be the correct ones.
With the original SD card I can't get passed the bootloader screen & it just stays in 'serial' mode. With the new SD card it moves on to 'loading...', but then just hangs. I haven't yet seen the word 'searching' as described in the [TUT] Flash your ROM / Radio via microSD.
To clarify, the phone boots fine with the installed 3.14 ROM, but I can't get away from SPL 2.08.0000 or flash any other ROM.

Ok here is a couple of options for you. One go to www.t-mobile.com if you have a T-Mobile HD2 and type HTC HD2 upgrade in the search box on the home screen of the website and you will find the official T-Mobile 3.14 ROM. You will have to enter your IMEI number under your battery to download it. Download this ROM and then follow the steps to flash it via SD card, hint you will have to rename the original .exe file to .zip to gain access to the .nbh file. Also you can download and run HSPL 4 on your HD2 and select SPL 3.03.0000 but the official ROM will change it to SPL 3.10.0000 if you flash via SD card
Its a common problem i think if you are trying to flash a rom via sd card with a sd card higher than class two. Many here have encountered such problems.
According to your description, it will seem that it is as i suspected, the pc doesn't seem to recognize the phone and this could mean you have a defect usb cable or the useport itself is not funtioning properly. Try holding the phone in your hand with the usb in and support the usb with your hand to make sure the usb is indeed in the phone and see what happens. My usb cable is a little bit loose so when i want to flash anything, i use my hand to support it or i place my phone on a smoot surface and make sure the usb cable is in it.

Ok do to some recent personal experience and some other members problem of late. I suggest both of you do this go to www.windowsmobile.com/getstarted and download the most recent version of WMDC wich has updated drivers in it that seems to solve somd problems with flashing via USB especially if you are using a 64 bit system. Just so both of you know unless your HD2 shows up as "HTC USB Sync" in the device manager while connected via USB while in bootlaoder you do not have the correct drivers installed and any flash will fail.
T-Macgnolia & Abdul9: Thanks for that, however mine is a UK Tmobile HD2 & the .com site is only for US ones (it doesn't recognise UK IMEI's). If I go via the UK site it just links me to the HTC update site for the RUU_Leo_S_TMO_UK_3.14.110.1_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship (& also the 1.72 & 1.43 versions. I have tried all of these via both SD card & via USB. I have also tried HSPL4, HSPL3 & HSPL2. All options have failed. I have tried from Win XP Pro & Win 7 Ultimate (both 32bit) with two different USB leads. I have also tried a 3rd SD card (which ends up stalling at the 'loading' screen. The phone flashed fine prior to removing 2.08HSPL with HSPL4.
I think that the problem is not the SD card or the USB lead, but is the problem that I've now got a Tmobile (UK) phone with spl 2.08 & a WWE_3.14 ROM installed - this should obviously not normally be possible. I can't flash back to HSPL & I can't downgrade to any other ROM.
Does anyone have any idea how I can 'fool' the phone into letting me change the ROM?
I've been reading about Task29, but it says don't do this unless you have HSPL (which I can't get!). I don't want to brick the phone (because it still runs!), but I want HSPL back otherwise I can't reinstall Android on SD.
Furthermore, I don't think this is a USB driver issue, as it flashed fine before & it's occurring across different PC's & operating systems.
It's an incompatibility between a branded Tmobile with SPL & a WWE HTC ROM... I just need to get out of the loop I'm stuck in!
Hey Chameleon I know you don't think it is a problem with the drivers cause it was flashing fine before. But what I do not think you have taken into account is that you came from a older ROM and you had the right drivers to work with that ROM or the update for that ROM. But you now have a 3.14 ROM and this is a newer ROM that probably requires different drivers. I mean Microsoft did not create a new WMDC with updated drivers if it was not needed for the 3.14 ROMs as they are the most recent official ROM versions. Microsoft is the one that comes out with the new ROM versions too, the carriers just add their bloatware to them. Do you see my train of thought here? Also make sure you are usinv SD card that is 500MBPS to 8GB that is formated with Fat 32.

Hey Chameleon I know you don't think it is a problem with the drivers cause it was flashing fine before. But what I do not think you have taken into account is that you came from a older ROM and you had the right drivers to work with that ROM or the update for that ROM. But you now have a 3.14 ROM and this is a newer ROM that probably requires different drivers. I mean Microsoft did not create a new WMDC with updated drivers if it was not needed for the 3.14 ROMs as they are the most recent official ROM versions. Microsoft is the one that comes out with the new ROM versions too, the carriers just add their bloatware to them. Do you see my train of thought here? Also make sure you are usinv SD card that is 500MBPS to 8GB that is formated with Fat 32.

WOW! I've got the problem sorted! This can't be a coincidence... I haven't done anything different to my PC, but I got an 'unlock' code through for my phone this morning (£5.99 on Ebay) & it worked fine. I though "why not" & tried HSPL4 again. With no other changes it worked absolutely fine this time & I now have 2.08HSPL installed.
Presumably by unlocking my my phone from Tmobile it has also removed the 'you're using the incorrect ROM' problem.
Thanks for everyones input on this. I maintain that XDA-Developers is one of the best Forums around (not just within the mobile phone arena).

Bricked my HD2?

Hello all
My dad own a HD2, the flat cable has been replaced. When you turn it on, you just see a white screen sometimes you see HTC logo, and the down left side you see
R 2.05.51.05_2
G 15.28.50.070
B 1.48.71294
We went into 3 colour mode, but we can't make any factory reset.
I tried to flash HSPL but everytime i get an error (image attached)
Stock one is SPL-1.42.0000 XE
I run windows 7 x64bit
can someone please help me?
Update: I have downloaded RUU stock rom from xda, and after 1% its says ERROR 270 update error the image file is corrupted. check your update utility

Try task 29 wipe phone re download the original ruu and retry . are you using a t mobile us based hd2 ? if so you need specific rom or you will brick device !
also read these 1st to make sure you are doing it right, you should not need to return to stock to flash.

Its been a long time but im wondering if your problem is goldcard related, you really need somebody who has more expereince recently with wm as my memory is not so good on this now im afraid, hold on what exactly word for word is the error when installing hspl? does it say anything about missing files? are you flashing in bootloader mode (3 colours) and are you running the flasher as administrator???? right click run as administrator??

http://www.mediafire.com/?2qz0xa7xfxney47
(after this, if you want to load 3.03.HSPL, then use your HSPL4 tool)
3. after that install this radio rom;Radio ROM 2.15.50.14;
http://www.mediafire.com/?1th8o158r2t6dba
4. And after that you can install original win 6.5 RUU rom or any custom win 6.5 rom. [/QUOTE]
HSPL3 says;
Quote:
Only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from SD card.
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from an original ROM and copy it to your SD card.
- Rename to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset your device while pressing the volume down button.
Hope this helps source:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433&page=355

Also you can factory reset by holding both the up and down volume buttons down at the same time and switching the device on with the buttons still held down !

Well I hope you can solve this one as I have to admit defeat, I know is the error code can indicate a damaged file but he has re-tried with a new flasher and its the same error, I was wondering if it was a goldcard issue as I seem to remember that can cause a flash fail, but we don't use goldcards anymore, I suppose it is possible its bricked but if its entering the tri coloured screen it should flash, so I am stumped, your turn lol
How the rom got deleted? we just replaced flat cable
Anyway, there is a way that i can do flash the rom?
i was assuming you'd done a task29, (i dont read back previous posts, it'd take me forever, heh, so sometimes i miss / miss-remember something)
Just had a quick 20mins reading and googling, , strange thing is, , your line "B 1.48.71294" , , , thats an odd looking rom version, it would normally be something like 1.43.206.4, , where the .206. gives the rom locale, and carrier (206 is O2 uk, for example)
71294 is (i think) a build number, something like that, but i dont remember it ever being displayed on the start screen (course its been a loong time since i booted winmo)
If i remember correctly, it gets that info from the registry of the installed rom, which would suggest to me the possibility of a non stock rom, something thats been messed with, you sometimes see people post odd entries after JTAGGing and the like.
What's the history of the phone? you know where it originally came from? the original carrier? has it been repaired in any shady one-man phone repair shops?
for me, id try the following,,, get a 2gb (4gb at a push, certainly no bigger) and make a goldcard (instructions here - gc creator here )
get the wwe unbranded 3.14 rom, extract the ruu_signed, rename to leoimg,,, (blah blah u know how to sd card flash)

Great info, I did suggest to the OP that he may need a goldcard but its been a long time since I have made one, hopefully he will get his phone working soon !
How task29? i don't have HSPL and you must have it do task29
My dad officaly bought it from the offical import of the phone in israel, "Newpan", with offical hebrew on it
Simfree from factory.
It was repaired by him
Clicked "'Get SD Serial and Disk ID" - the software get stucked. it's suppose to take that long?

hmm, cant find any reference to an official (as in htc) newpan rom, just a few mentions of people installing something from the htc desire to get rtl text working, perhaps newpan cooked their own, , shouldnt matter though, at least we're sure its not a jtagged device, or a rebuild from parts.

no, it shouldn't, what sd card reader are you using? a usb one? one in teh front of a pc? cos if they're usb mounted then you actually often get the cid of the card reader not the card, ,
In htc site you can't find roms for hd2 at all
Through my samsung i9000 because 64bit doesn't support my card reader
even though it's not connected it's stuck.
sorry, out of ideas, other than hunt out sources of card readers, , friends computers, laptops, other phones, multibooting a 32bit operating system.,,,,
