T-mobile HD2 Update MR Software (Version 3.14.531.1), What is it?
Today T-mobile release a new software update. Does anybody know what it is for?
I assume if you have a rom installed it is no good. I am running Energy Rom, and Radio 2.15.50.14, so I am assuming updating would be a bad idea.
yeah has anyone installed it and what are the benefits of it?? I want to know b4 installing...
You may get better answers over in the TMOUS HD2 forum on this
Features of the 3.14.531.1 update
I also had the same question - what is it that changed with the new HTC HD2 ROM? I spent a lot of time searching, and found this:

==============================================
For all you T-mobile HTC HD2 smartphone users out there who have been waiting for an official software update to land, you’ll be happy to know that today is the day you have been waiting for as T-Mobile is to release software update version 3.14.531.1 to the HTC HD2.
According to an article over on Tmonews, the new software update from T-mobile will deliver several fixes along with stability improvements and access to new apps like Amazon MP3 and Shazam. As for those bug fixes…
The new software update will fix such stuff as slow browsing when on Facebook, the inability to delete Gmail messages in the preview screen, Twitter errors, SMS being delivered to the wrong person, and the white screen whilst browsing the net, the inability to hear Visual Voicemail, unable to unlock the device, unable to unlock the HTC HD2 with correct password, and the lack of a space bar on company directory keyboard, and finally the speakerphone doesn’t work after using the Call Assist app to call 611.
HTC HD2 user can download the new software update by visiting t-mobile and following the instruction; however T-mobile will issue a notification by text to HTC HD2 users when the update is ready, which should be today the 19th of October so keep an eye on your text messages and let us know how you get along.

It will also **** up some stuff, while fixing others.
No Bluetooth stack fixes...
Its horrible...I'm having the worst connections to apps like Omarket, Marketplace, Slacker Radio...The Wifi will not stay connected...The only thing working as far as connections is the internet.
edit: Everything's working now except the Facebook app.

no. Once a phone is network unlocked it cannot be locked again.

yes, it will be locked again! But, there is no reason why T-mobile will not request an unlock code from HTC on your behalf. Usually it takes 24-48hrs

Why you say it's a bad idea...because the official is no good or because you can damage the phone this way ? I went from omega to the 3.14.531.1 and I experience many problems freezes restarts etc ...I think the update damaged the phone (although it was successful)

you probably left hspl installed, 3.14 plus hspl = "many problems freezes restarts etc"
Ι am no expert but I am sure I replaced HSPL with SPL 2.08
Still I experience all these freezes and restarts with both 2.13.531.1 and 3.14.531.1 versions (in 3.14.531.1 it even freezes when you insert the memory card)
Can it be something else ?

so, is that spl 2.08 or hspl 2.08 or spl 2.08.0000 or hspl 2.08.hspl? clarity please, leaving off the last 4 digits prevents us from double checking your work.
enter bootloader, whats it say next to spl? (all of it, not just the x.xx bit)

Entering the bootloader right now says 2.10.0000
It must have been changed after flashing the official 2.13.531.1 (via USB)
Prior to doing that I had run the utility hspl3 and chosen 2.08.0000 (there are 2 choices in this utility as you say 2.08.0000 and 2.08.hspl) so (I thought) I had replaced the hspl with the official loader
Does this utility (hspl3) effectively changes the SPL or just updates the displayed number ?
Do you suggest following the micro SD card method to flash and not the USB method ?
I read somewhere that the ONLY way to replace the SPL is by flashing from micro SD...so what is the hspl3 utility for ?
Can you help me with that please ?
I need help because the phone right now although it seems to have been flashed correctly to official 2.13.531.1 and displays 2.10.0000 as it's SPL version freezes and restarts every some minutes...

yes, because you chose teh wrong 2.08 (next step) it will be changed by usb flashing. Had you chosen 2.08.hspl, this would still say 2.08.hspl

thats old instructions.
for a start hspl .exeis for applying hspl, not just removing it - you can simply run hspl3 (or hspl4, whichever, makes no difference) - choose an spl ending .0000, hspl is gone. choose one with .hspl and, , , guess, , , yes! it loads hspl onto teh phone.
Can you help me with that please ?

yep, happens a lot that, especially with stock roms,, give 3.14 a try perhaps.
3.14.531.1 has more problems...not only it freezes with certain applications (or making phone calls) but it freezes when inserting the microSD card as well...that's why I went to 2.13.531.1...at least I could keep the microSD inside without freezing...
And that's why I think it's not a firmware-software issue...that's what I'm trying to verify...
Now I have another bigger issue...after trying to flash a firmware that I think it wasn't T-Mobile's by mistake (the phone is T-Mobile model) the SPL is now 3.03.0000 and the 2.13.531.1 and 3.14.531.1 firmwares refuse to start flashing
Is there something I can do ?
I want to go back to 2.13.531.1 so I can sent it to T-Mobile
Thanks
Use hspl4, choose 2.08.hspl, reflash 2.13.
Sounds like you flashed a non tmous stock 3.14,,, don't do anything that silly again.
Just confirm for us,,, your send key is green, right?
Thank you very much I used hspl4 and managed to go back to the proper ROM
As for the send key if you mean the key with the little telephone on it yes it's green...the phone is T-mobile it says so on the top
Now that I have tried 2.10.531.1 - 2.13.531.1 and 3.14.531.1 versions and all 3
suffer from strange freezes and restarts when making phone calls or watching movies from the internet or the storage card (after some time) don't you think it's safe to presume that there is a hardware fault and return it to the vendor ?
Do you think there is something else for me to try ?
Thank you again for your help...

Hi Guys
I have just noticed that there is new ROM published on www.clubimate.com today.
As far as i understand it is the same OS version as installed on all JASJAMs sold by Telstra, but just with new radio and maybe new extROM ?
What i dont understand is why it says 1.38.30.10 instead of 1.38.00.10 ?
Maybe some additional customizations for their NextG network ?
Here is the link:
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/i-mate_JASJAM_telstra_1.31.305.2_106_6275_1.38.30.10_108_ship.zip
Hey, good find!
Dunno if i have time for flashing ROMs today but will have a look at some stage. Lol, dunno what's with the standard OS but nomenclature of radio rom is intriguing.
PS just noticed you're in adelaide. Good form
Hi there...have downloaded the RUU already and made the nbh with GSM.nb only...but have no time to make the upgrade...if someone have made the upgrade already post if it is all OK...

I didnt know we could flash GSM via mtty? Thought we needed an RUU.
Unless im missing something?

Could you please upload extracted RadioROM to rapidshare or megaupload ?
am doing it now... stay tuned
I extracted the radio rom. It is 1.38.30.10, flashed it with the new Custom RUU works great. I'll test it today to see if there's any noticable difference between 1.38.00.10. Here it is if anyone wants it. When it doubt use Force Using SSPL.

changes are minor... 3G fixes for the 850Mhz networks here in AUS....
well some parts of cingular runs 3g in 850 like here in jacksonville...so might help some of us here too
I have just flashed it, i havent had any problems with 1.38.00.10 on Telstras NextG network, so will see how this one goes. ;-)
Hi all, I've just installed the WM6 Black 1.2 and Hard SPL 1.10 Oli to my Jasjam, very nice. It took me all last weekend to reinstall the Applications and data.
My current ROM is 3.22.200.4 and Radio Rom is 1.20.31.10. I've just want to know:
1. Is it worth just install this Radio Rom only 1.33.30.10 to improve my GSM reception and WIFI.
2. Also if I install the Radio Rom only- do I still have to reinstall every Applications AGAIN.....
Cheers

About 1000x said there is NO improve in WIFI with radio ROM...this is part of the OS and not the Radio ROM...yes it is worth if you have any older version than 1.38.00.00

It depends on the way you do the install...cause the latest RUU (original one) make task 28 on the end of the install and this mean HARD RESET...I will do my update from SD card...
Regards,
Primoz
Well I've been using it for a day now and haven't noticed any huge improvement in the radio but I with more use it may prove to be better.
Noticed the new MS Packet Video player. Guess this is to solve the problems Telstra customers were having with no Foxtel sevices on the Jasjam. I believe it was an issue of Media Player not being compatible.
Also a few small changes to Telstra customizatons. No changes to WM5, still AKU 2.3.
Maybe my imagination, but I thought I used to be able to turn on Flight Mode (radio off) and still have WiFi on, but can't now. Also the tab in Phone options to Update Time has gone, and there seems to be one less tab in the WiFi settings. Guess you can get them back with reg hacks.
Funny how everyone raves about how fast WM6 feels when they first install it... this update made me realise how fast WM5 feels when it is a new/clean install.
I uploaded the Radio Only with the Olipro RUUWrapper so it wont HR after you install. Also NON rapidshare mirror.

A reference:
Last Updated: 27 March 2007
As a further enhancement to the Next G (TM) network, Telstra will carry out a platform upgrade which will affect i-mate JASJASM users and will require them to carry out a software upgrade for their handsets. This software upgrade will be available on a CD and on the www.imate.com/jasjamsupport website.
Customers who purchase an i-mate (TM) JASJAM must be informed prior to purchase that their i-mate JASJAM handset will require a software upgrade. Customers must be told that this software upgrade is available on the www.imate.com/jasjamsupport website. CDs with the software upgrade will be available on request from the website soon.
Post the network upgrade, the customer will need to have installed the new software on their device in order to maintain simultaneous voice and data connectivity.
Before the network upgrade, all Telstra i-mate (TM) JASJAM users will be sent an SMS, followed by a direct mail piece with instructions on how to facilitate the upgrade.
Note: the customer must download the upgrade to a PC then to the handset. There is no provision to download directly from the imate site to customers handsets.
Customers are advised to backup all personal data prior to downloading the software to their device.

From that link, the enhancements :
The essential service enhancements include:
• Network enhancement: this upgrade will even further optimize the performance of your i-mate™ JASJAM on the Telstra Next GTM network, taking full advantage of all the latest network enhancements and ensuring you can continue to make/receive calls during a data transmission eg. Direct Push Email.
• Time Zone fix: currently some of your appointments may appear to be shifted forward by one hour. This may have occurred when daylight savings commenced. The service upgrade will help stop this occurring.
• Unknown USB device driver fix: you may have seen an "Unknown USB device" error message appear on your screen. It is extremely intermittent, and only experienced by a small number of devices. The service upgrade will help stop this error occuring.
• Screen Backlight fix: you may have experienced your back light not turning on making it difficult to read the screen. It is extremely intermittent, and is only experienced by a small number of devices. The service upgrade will help stop this occurring.
• Freeze fix: you may have experienced your device freezing up. It is extremely intermittent, and is only experienced by a small number of devices. The service upgrade will help stop this occurring.
• Bluetooth® fix: this enhanced version of Bluetooth® is designed to improve the ability to connect your i-mate™ JASJAM to other Bluetooth® compatible accessories eg. Bluetooth® headset or car kit.

"extremely intermittent" device freezes? Some here would beg to differ.
Anyone extracted the cab files from EXTROM?
Hi
Are the new Windows Media streamer install file located in the EXT rom?
Can anyone extract those from the installation file and post them somewhere?
Thanks

While it's technically OK to use with the radio ROM you created, it's bad advice in general (particularly if you have Hard-SPL installed). The "Force SSPL" option should only be used to upgrade/downgrade Hard-SPL. The latest Custom RUU (V4) has SPL auto-detect. When it doubt, use that!

Hi everyone,my name's Larry and I just registered to the forums. Please forgive my newness but I am in a bit of a pickle here.
I have a MDA Vario II, aka Hermes 300, that I bought s/h off ebay. Works fine,no worries, but I upgraded to WM6 because i felt browsing was a little slow and the screen graphics werent as good as I expected. The upgrade was from the T-mobile site itself and all went fine. Only thing is I dont believe this phone can handle it(needs more RAM really) and after being online a while it gets really slow,like steerig a cow through treacle at times so I came to the conclusiong it was a bad move! Now I've noticed a link on here about downgrading to WM5 but is it that easy for one with no specialised tools or knowledge(tho i did build my own PC, or should I say ahem WE did)
Also a problem the phone has developed since the upgrade is it keep deleting my email settings, even tho on the 'desktop' screen it tells me i have so many unread emails in each account! So now i cant check emails from it either!
I do hope I can sort this out cos it is really frustrating having a PDA and not being able to browse properly!
Many thanks
Larry
Welcome to XDA-Developers larry. Well Firstly i would start with CID unlocking your device so that you can flash any rom you can do that by downloading hard spl from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
then once you have flashed that you can basically download and install any rom for the hermes. I have an mda vario ii and hate the t-mobile rom as it installs quite a bit of useless crap. I never use and it is also so damn ugly. if after installing a new rom you find you have internet connection problems and/or mms settings then download and run this http://rapidshare.com/files/92547562/UK_Setup.exe that will install the settings for internet and mms for all uk networks, the majority of the cooked roms on here though ,already have a network wizard to set it up for you, but better to be safe than sorry
P.S. I forgot to add if you are looking for speed and extra ram i would look for a vanilla(clean) rom, install that and then add the apps you want via cab files, you will find them scattered about all over this site

all your question answered here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
I have looked thru the wiki and cannot find the advice I need.
My device has the following on it and what I would like to know is if I can actually drowngrade the device back to WM5.
The rom version is 3.60.110.4 (T-mobile UK)
The radio version is 1.50.00.00 so I assume that it is boot 0108.
The IPL is 1.04 and the SPL 2.03.
The protocol reads as follows 32.83.7020.20H
I have come across a guide that states if the radio is above 1.27.00.00 then downgrading may not be possible.
"(NOTE: If your radio version is currently HIGHER than 1.27.00.00 then it is very likely the radio bootloader is version 0108, this WILL NOT allow the radio to be downgraded to a radio containing BL 0106 and will result in a "NO GSM" error.)" -http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=41&Itemid=27
The other question I would like to ask is this - it is possible to put another verion of WM6 on with this radio version?
Thanks for any advice!
Can anyone help me here!
Do I need to SIM unlock my PDA to update the ROM to a custom ROM, for example Schaps_WM6Pro_Hermes_4.30 which I recently downloaded from here.
At the moment it is locked to T-mobile. I have also updated the SPL to 2.10 olipro and the radio is at 1.50.00.00 and the HTC boot is 0108.
Thanks guys
Larry

I think you might not have gotten help 'cause it doesn't look like you've read what people pointed for you to read. Hopefully this'll help you get over the jargon hump and make progress. Having upgraded from the Offical T-Moble rom and swapped ROMs, it's definitely worth taking the time to learn how to do.
SIM unlock & CID unlock aren't the same.
If you've had you phone with T-Mobile for at least 3 month they will let Unlock you SIM (at least they do in the US). Contact them directly, you'll need an active account & phone number with them. This is free.
CID unlocking allows flashing ROMs onto your PDA. For some reason the folks at T-mobile, etc want you to have to look at their stuff every time you use a machine you bought through them. Using a cooked rom is like reinstalling XP without having AOL on your computer, makes life much better.
(flashing = installing to a PDA's Read Only Memory)
(ROM = OS + Radio + other stuff = basically everything thats on the PDA after a hard reset)
Flashing can be a dangerous thing, you don't want to 'brick' your PDA so you install an escape hatch. Hard SPL is that escape hatch.
(Brick = peice of baked clay = your PDA if a ROM install fails and you didn't install Hard SPL first)
The Hard SPL protects you if the ROM you installs fails 'cause power went out, ROM was bad, you bumped the cable, etc

Thanks gt, and we have read advice on here but a lot of seems to be conflicting plus we seem to be just going round and round. Yep, ben there, yep read that etc.
I know the diff. between SIM and CID unlock but all I want to know is is it necessary to SIM unlock the phone to update a ROM?
I wont be using another network but will be staying with T-mobile W n W.
I did it!
Well I did it. flashed the phone with Schaps WM6 4.30 WWE.
Have noticed it runs faster than the previous T-Mobile WM6 and has some really neat features-you can adjust a lot more settings on the phone than before,quite impresed! Thanks for everyones help!

Try a different radio, eg 1.65.28.25. Works very well, and low power consumption to boot.
use other radio rom
I had the same problem.
Many noises, people on the other side couldn't hear me as well as dropping line.
I also tried different combination in spl/rom/radio (also restoring original spl/rom/radio).
I solved by sending phone to service reparing (warranty).
I don't know exactly what they did since ther was no physical repair but they said they only upgraded something (which sounds strange to me since ther's no official upgrade for my country from HTC) but now it works fine.

So, what's the build number of ROM and also radio number? If it is one not on the board, any chance of dumping the ROM and posting it?
i tried with 1.5xx roms, 1.65.28.25 etc. and still have the problem.....

Rom version: 1.31.408.09
Date rom: 10/30/07
Radio version: 1.58.16.27
Protocol version: 25.61.30.03W
It seems to be the "standard" configuration...
But now on the splash screen there's no more "Niki pro" trace...D 1.31 as it used to be.
ok... i again tried several configurations and also flashed the complete original rom. the error still is there what can i do now? is there any possibility to format the whole phone except the bootloader?

The radio, SPL and ROM cover the entire phone's OS. The official HTC WWE release 2.09.405.1 has all three in it. Disable the Hardspl (if other than HardSPL 1.22) by flashing the sspl, then flash this ROM. This will return the phone to original state. You might need to do this if you need to send the phone back for warranty service.
I'm going to send my phone to service again because I got my problems back...because I definetly think I got some "hardware" problems...
If I shake my phone some metallic noises can be heard inside, did you try something similar?
any news on this topic? i still cant use my niki.... im still receiving massive intereferences when calling since my flashing orgy. how to put it back to a fully OEM state without any mods?
nothing? will i really have to send my phone to the service ..... please not, i damaged one of the guarantee seels (back of the phone, right to the camera) mit the pen once....

it must be radio issue - please try to flash a complete rom+radio, flash from microSD this time, rename the nbh file to NIKEIMG.nbh, enter bootloader and flash.
*push* still not working
Hi all
I've had a search through the re-developed ROM's and to be perfectly open, I don't understand much about them.
I recently had a plain HTC HD2 and very happy with it for what I use it for, I don't need any fancy add on's and bits etc, just my Co-pilot and keeping my contacts and notes upto date.
That handset was lost and the insurance didn't have any HD2 replacements in stock. The Desire they sent instead has been sold, and I've purchased a T Mobile version of another HD2.
Is it a simple case of downloading and installing the official HTC ROM for the handset and doing a ROM update?
Apologies if this is a simple query etc!
Cheers, Dennis!
no, no no nonono.
assuming you mean a tmobile us model (1024 rom, green send key) then no, if you flash a non tmous stock rom (any stock rom that isn't for the tmous) onto that phone it will die. brick. dead, because of the ..51.. radio they include.
You may get some cooked roms that are on a base of lower than 2.x, but have been tweaked for the 576ram , and they will work on your phone, but its a very risky game to play.
Far better to follow the two rules..,
only ever flash tmous stock roms,
and
cooked roms that SPECIFICALLY say tmous compatible in the title and post 1 of that roms thread..
Hiya
Samsamuel, thanks for the info there. I'll update with more information! I'm technical, but not with smartphones to the level some of you guys here!
I'm in the UK, and it's a UK TMobile handset that I bought. I've already had the handset 'unlocked' so that I can use my O2 SIM, which is working etc.
From the handset
OS Version - 5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)
Manila Version - 2.5.20121429.0
ROM version - 1.72.110.4 (86525) WWE
ROM date - 04/02/10
Radio Version - 2.07.51.22_2
Protocol version - 15.32.50.07U
So, would it be ok to update to the normal HTC ROM?
Cheers, Dennis!
Ah ok in that case there is no need to mention that it is a t mobile phone, just confuses the issue.
Yes the regular update will work fine once happy is applied.
Thanks once again SamSamuel,
However, what's meant by 'once happy is applied' ?
Is that one of these hacks or special ROM things?
When I do a search, so many results come back containing the word 'happy' I have no idea where or what to look for!
Is there a thread which explains how to apply 'happy'?
Apologies for the vagueness!!
Cheers, Dennis!
lol, thats the android spell correction and me not proof reading before i post. should be HSPL
Hiya
To me, anything that's typed up 'could' potentially be what I need to do! I wouldn't know the difference!!
So, I've had a search for HSPL - I see it mentioned, but alas, I have no clue what it is, where to get it from, what to do with it when I get it!
Is there any straightforward points on what and where to get this HSPL, how to use it ?
I know I can download the HTC official ROM from their website, so that part I think I know what to do as I upgraded my last HD2.
Cheers, Dennis!
ok, hspl. Get HSPL2_RUN.zip from HERE, (you can follow instructions that say hspl or hspl3, theyre all the same, except for what phones they support, , hspl2 is teh most usefull for regular hd2 owners)
phone into bootloader and connect usb, (when you read 'get an active sync connection', , forget that, it doesnt mean actual active sync, just a usb connection)
get hspl2, run it, in the dropdown is a list of spl and hspl versions. if it ends .0000 its stock, if it ends .hspl its,,,,,, hspl.
choose 2.08.hspl, follow the prompts. if it doesnt work, run the hspl prog again, if it still doesnt work (timeout/connection errors) change usb ports and try again. no need to touch teh phone, just leave it in bootloader all the time.
once bootloader says spl 2.08.hspl you are good to go.
BUT
if you are planning to flash the 3.14 rom, , , you can't do it this way.
3.14 wont work on any spl/hspl except 3.03.0000 and there is no way to get 3.03.0000 except goldcard.
Hiya
Samsamuel - seems you're the only one willing to help me here! so I really appreciate it !
I know i've got to do 'things' from what you've said there, but I have no idea on how to do it! - give me some financial IT related stuff I'm good! ask me to do bootloaders and potential goldcard and run files and connect - I'm lost! I don't want to try things in case I 'brick' the handset!
The ROM I want is listed on the HTC downloads section for the HD2. It's dated 25th January 2010
Details are
ROM Version:
Norway:1.66.409.1, Spain :1.66.412.1, Denmark:1.66.403.1, France :1.66.406.1,
Sweden:1.66.413.2, Italy:1.66.408.1, WWE:1.66.405.2, France Bouygues: 1.66.483.0
So, if I somehow manage to do this HSPL thing, will I not be able to install the HTC ROM? I have no idea where or what the '3.14' ROM is?
Apologies for sounding really vague - I've never got into all the modified ROM's and stuff for smartphones. I've only ever needed to switch on, use the phone, install my GPS software and keep my contacts and notes syncronised. I'm just used to the HD2 I had as it was a case of straightforward use. This T mobile version is 'different'!
Anyone else able to help alongside everything SamSamuel has kindly provided so far? please?!!
Cheers, Dennis!
warning
Its best for you if you do not try to update your phone. Either get used to it or just sell it. There are rom update tutorials on this site. Just search for rom update tutorial, if you must try. The official htc software is not for this phone, if you install it, your phone will no longer work, and you wont be able to fix it.
No, its ok so long as you have a regular hd2 locked to t mobile as discussed in earlier posts.
Just to double confirm, if your phone has green send key,then STOP DANGER
But I think we're dealing with white send key, so normal hd2, and the target Tom isn't 3.14
So,,,
assuming white end key.
Phone backed up and off
Press hold keep holding volume down
Tap and release power keep holding volume down
When striped coloured screen appears
Plug in USB
On PC run hspl2
In dropdown choose 2.08.hspl
When it completes and phone starts to reboot immediately hold volume down again to return to stripey screen (bootloader)
When says USB at the bottom and split at top says 2.08.hspl run the .exe you downloaded from HTC
If you get connection errors, timeouts, leave the phone and just swap USB ports. When running hspl.exe right click it and "run as administrator"
(That's the last time I'm gonna write those out in full, there must be 500 identical step by steps and half as many YouTube vids. )
If your send key is green DO NOT DO THIS
Hi folks! Please help me! I killed tons of nerves because of this phone!
So here is my sad story. 1 Year ago i bought second hand HTC HD2. Seller told me that phone is locked to T-mobile(Not US one!! UK one!! Transaction was held in UK). After I got phone I rushed home to install Android and I was successful at this point. Then I bought a unlock code from ebay, so I Finally could make phone calls. Then I realized that the only way I can insert code is putting back WM 6.5. And here the worst part starts. I read hundreds of manuals but still was unsuccessful. I downloaded many official WM 6.5 ROM installers but they didn't flash my phone. They just got stuck at 0% and error pops up. I was trying it for a week and then I just raged and put phone to the shelf and was waiting til I get will power to start over again.
I hear that every phone needs its own ROM installer for particular region and operator but I couldn't find UK T-mobile ROM so used many others and it didn't help.
I also heard that by IMEI it is possible to find to what operator the phone is locked(just to check if seller didn't lie me) but again I didn't manage to do so.
Here is my IMEI 354120035834066
Please experts help me, little nooby, with this horrible situation.
thank you
Many people report that you can in fact put the code in under android after all,,,, perhaps its only earlier versions that couldn't. That being said you probably want to put a new one on since it (and magldr) will be old versions.
Anyway, all that hanging at 0% is because there is no hspl installed.
Plenty of places to get tmo stock rom,, go put
3.14 ruu Leo tmo uk
.....into Google. When I just did it the real htc site came up second.
Its not necessary, tho,,
Phone into bootloader,
connect USB
Use hspl4 to set 3.03.hspl
Return to bootloader
Flash any 3.14 rom USING USB,NOT SD CARD
Done.

Thank you, but always when I am trying yo install HSPL4 critical error comes up. I think it comes up because I have spl 2.1000000 which should be 2.08 I found information that in order to downgrade to 2.08 I need to flash official ROM. But when I am trying to do so it is always stuck on 0%...
I am so $%^& up ...
any ideas?.... thx
Does HSPL4 not allow you to install 3.03 to your device ?
T-Mobile UK ROM is available direct from HTC site:
