[Q] Strange Serial Number? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good morning my LEO fiends!
I have a question related to my S/N.
So, does anybody know from which country is the S/N starting with SH?
I bouth my LEO from AMAZON through an APO. The problem is that if I want to download the ROM from HTC Official Site, there is written "it doesn't fit to your phone". Why? The flash rom size is also 500 mb, so maybe it si not to T-MOUS model. Con you help me?
Thanks!!!!

It is quite difficult, on the basis of your S/N to indicate your Aria.
But if you would know it for 100% you can contact HTC about this.
But witch is your Stock ROM version that you have fore the moment?
Becous the x.xx.XXX.x (bold section) can tell you easily from witch aria your device is coming from.

I have HD2 with "SH..." serial number.
It is bought in Croatia (t-mobile hr - totally unbranded- IT IS NOT TMOUS model). You can find rom updates (web sites recognized ser. number) on HTC Germany web page.

I have seen thorugh IMEI and I realized it comes from UK, although bought in USA. Anyway, I cannot find an Official update

Maybe it's a branded device.

My serial also begins with SH. I'm in the uk on t-mob (as you can see on the right) and when I got my phone replaced on my insurance I was sent a new unbranded device with what I figured was German, when trying to update my rom the only look i had was on the German htc page, so I'm guessing your answer lies there.
If you want a specific operator rom there's threads in the HD2 Rom Development section, I'm sure you can flash one of those if you put it into bootloader, all I tend to do.

You should be able to flash any language ROM to your phone you want. I looked up the original vodophone ROM on the wiki for a T7272, http://www.vodafone.de/downloadarea....1_Radio_Sign_52.63.25.34_1.14.25.05_Ship.exe, so this should be what you need. Before you flash anything, please continue to read the wiki and stickied posts and HardSPL your phone. It'll save you lots of trouble.
Best of luck my friend.
It does not matter from where you the phone came from, you can flash ROM's of any language, as long as they are for the same phone model

New ROM for T-Mobile (1.33.110.2)

Just checked the HTC website and I've just discovered a new ROM for T-Mobile(uk?) users was uploaded yesterday
Version 1.33.110.2
Luckily for me I'm a t-mobile user, but I havnt noticed anyone talking about a 1.30+ rom yet
EDIT: AS somebody already asked and DID NOT READ TWO POSTS BELOW i'm quoting myself here:
Just to note:
The site mentions a new ROM update for your HTC HD2...
I confirm this is for your Touch2/Mega/T3333. It's pretty snappy
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
ALSO note that this is for T-Mobile UK branded Mega's ONLY
(you could try using it, but dont complain when your GPRS/mms/etc settings are preconfigured for T-mobile!!)
Thanks for this.. looks like the crappy T Mobile release is the best we can hope for. At least YouTube gets its own application, so I don't get the "Finding Network..." error when loading videos from IE
yeah it looks alot better than the last one i downloaded.
Just to note:
The site mentions a new ROM update for your HTC HD2...
I confirm this is for your Touch2/Mega/T3333. It's pretty snappy
T Mobile must have paid millions for HTC to lock the Mega with them, this is a really nice phone, especially if you don't want to carry a laptop sized thing (HD2) with you
Why can't they make a single ROM with no branding on it (or at least don't block changing the ROM)
... If anything, seeing the bloody T Mobile thing on start up makes me less likely to switch to them, and go to Virgin or stay with O2.
Thanx guys, its something until we get cooked roms, wow
Erm, nid help! why i cant download it? they ask me for S/N and i typed in but they say this software is not suitable for you device. my phone is HTC Touch2 T3333
Is it a T-Mobile one? Or not? The phone must be a T-Mobile UK one, you must select United Kingdom in their site and voila.
same here...
I'm not from UK but I'm sure it will work in my device. Can someone upload it please?
Lot of thanks.....
I hope the HTc donĀ“t forget the rest of us....

It is, but only for UK T-Mobile branded phones. Its not for every HTC Mega.
Brands?
I have no Idea about the other brands... My phone was originally in Italian then I was able to Flash it with an WWE Rom.. I don't think that I won't be able to reflash it with the latest rom version released by the other providers...

Then my friend you have not branded mobile phone. That means you must put only WWE updates, this update is only for T-Mobile Phones from UK, when you swich on/off the phone you see T-Mobile, now did you get that this is not for you, wait for the 1.33 WWE version.

UK Serial Number Request / Latest WWE Europe ROM...

Im trying to get hold of the latest release of the World Wide English, Europe Mega ROM off HTC support.
For them to release it they need me to give a serial number. I have a T-Mobile handset, so mine wont do.
(Anyone who wants to download the latest T-Mobile ROM from HTC's website, can use my serial number : HT01XP102250 )
So if anyone from the United Kingdom, with an unlocked, sim free, Touch 2, (NOT BOUGHT WITH A T-MOBILE CONTRACT!) could let me know their serial number - it would be appreciated
Obviously if I get hold of the latest ROM, I would post a link for all to use
There isnt any new WWE rom as i can see, if i am not wrong 1.28 is the one and only
I just assumed with the release of the new T-Mobile ROM - there will be an original HTC one out aswell. It's worth asking

[Q] I Can't find The Suitable Region for my HD2 Manila Verion for ROM UPGRADE

I have a HD2 phone with these software specs out of the box:
Manila Version ( 2.5.192xxx ),
ROM Verion (1.43.405 xxx) WWE (70124)
Radio Ver ( 2.04 xxx)
I have been searching for a suitable ROM in htc official site to Upgrade my ROM, but no matter how much I tried, I only get this:
"This software is not suitable for your phone"
I checked my IMEI in https://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imeinr and my phone turned out to be originated from Europe. But I get the same sentence when I tried Europe countries in htc official website.
Can someone kindly shed a light on this?
Thanks fellas
P.S
TBH, I don't see any similarity between my phone OS interface and that of people who have hd 2 Manila version ( from youtube ). Isn't it strange?
probably a branded device sir

You can use the GoldCard technique. (I know it works, but don't have experience with it)
Wow very original (initial ROM)....
Looks like you have an UK ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9105826&postcount=1. So you could try the UK HTC Site.
Have you checked if you have an Operator logo at startup? If so, go to the Operators website, maybe the posted the ROM over there.
You must also check your SPL at bootup and report it over here.
HSPL your HD2 then it doesn't matter WHERE your phone is from. As long as its not a t-mobile phone which has more RAM/ROM than normal you can flash any HD2 rom you want...

Sorry for SPL you have to enter BootLoader (press and hold volume-down when booting the device), but don't bother, cause if I read one of your prev posts, you don't have HSLP installed.
You could also contact HTC Support, maybe they can help you finding your upgrade. Cause you have an ancient ROM on your HD2. I believe for all HD2 devices (even branded) there has to be at least an 1.66... or 1.72... ROM available.
Btw. You don't have an Operator logo somewhere at startup, it's all HTC logo's???

I forgot to mention that I finally found a ROM upgrade for my phone from htc TAIWAN website, downloaded and installed it. Apparently my phone origin is Taiwan. And now the language of my phone became Taiwanese. The question is that how my TAIWANESE phone had English language on it if it was not HSPL'ed? ( Actually I didn't check the Bootloader BEFORE upgrading my phone, but I believe if my phone had been HSPL'ed, the word HSPL would be seen in bootloader even AFTER Rom upgrading, right?
Is it possible that a Taiwanese phone has English language on it out of factory?

No, it's all HTC.
Read ALL the previous replies. Told OPTUS that I could not get the Win6.5 ROM upgrade from HTC, launched a week ago. They told me to give them the IMEI (above the serial number).
The operator then told me that I needed to download from the South African HTC site, since that's where my ex-Telstra phone came from. But that site seems off-line at this moment.

perhaps you could look here:

[Q] Which Official Rom for my HD2?

Dear Experts!
I am in need of your urgent attention. My EU leo's touch screen got out of function while using andriod NAND.
Now I had to send it to claim warranty and for that i need official win mo 6.5 in it. I gone through many threads and tried some official rooms too but it says 00028002 NOT ALLOWED...
My S/N is SH08PNW01121
P/N is 99HJY032-00
I just need a working official rom(Any version) for my HD2 so that i can send it for repair.
Kindly spare sometime and guide me.
I shall feel humbled....
Is there anybody to help me out???
drusmaan, it that a bid deal to download official rom? It's no need to be a big "expert" - RTFM is more than enough
Go to the HTC correspondent site and download software update via inserting your IMEI number.
If you are sure that you have European model than - do it with Euro web site.
First - check your IMEI here: http://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imeinr to be sure about the phone origin.
HTC website not providing ROMs for HD2

Est. Date of Range Issuance Around Q1 2010
Reporting Body British Approvals Board of Telecommunications (BABT)
Primary Market Europe
Legal Basis for Allocation EU R&TTE Directive
...
I checked on the HTC website for a rom download but couldnt find any rom to download.
Can you plz look into it and provide me the link...? I think HTC website is not providing roms for HD2 anymore... Sorry m new to this stuff so taking your time on guidance for small things...
Anxiously waiting for your reply as i have to ship it back for repair at earliest.
