[Q] bricked HD2 .. it won't flash radio - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi,
i have brand new hd2 tmobile. the phone stuck on the tmobile logo and didn't start-up.. i tried to flash the original tmobile stock ROM ** i got it from tmobile website** but it stuck in the flashing and refused to finish flashing.
i tried to install the ROM from the sd card but it always freezes in the radio flashing process.
i installed hspl3. now i have 2.8.hspl and tried to install the original stock ROM again and cocked roms through RRU.exe flashing and the SD card but no luck.
Also i did task29. it wiped out every thing yet no luck .
btw i try to flash radio 2.10.50.x
all the radios i did were 50
i use the reset button every time coz the phone wont respond unless i use it.

Bricked HD2
Make sure it's in bootloader and flash 2.08 HSPL to it via HD Tool Kit...Let it reboot,and pull the battery..Let it sit for 30 seconds..But the battery back in,and flash radio for Leo 2.15.50.14.It should flash the radio with no problems then.Best of luck with it.

Huge problem...no boot...need help please!

Hey guys...Heres a quick run down of whats happened:
Was upgrading to a new version of a custom ROM using SD method like i normally do. Process stuck at the very end forever (hours), so i soft reset. Now phone won't boot past the splash screen, just hangs there.
I have attempted the method "Phone bricked when writing to the Extended ROM" here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems#error
But my problem is I cant use mtty because i have SPL 2.03.
How am I able to downgrade my SPL to 1.04 if I can't boot?
Or any ideas as to how i can get passed this an start clean altogether?
(I have already tried hard reset, no go)
Re-install the ROM using sd card method. If you think it could be a corrupt ROM image file, use a different ROM.
Might Work for you.
I had almost the same thing happen to my phone not but two days ago.
The problem I experience with SPL 2.03 after it bricked was that any new or custom Roms i tried flashing to my phone would error out before even starting the process.
What I did, and it worked for me, was to flash over the oldest original shipped Rom for my carrier. You can find it here.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
Load the Rom to your SD card and enter the bootloader. If your lucky it will start the process and finish.
Then as soon as its done, before putting a different Rom on there, use Hard-SPL. Here's the link and walk through for it.

Let me know if it works out for ya.

HD2 Bricked!-Upgrade Rom Code Error - not able to get out. PLEASE HELP!

Hello all!
I am in desperate need of some help from you all, and the great rom chefs here.
What exactly happened:
From past 2-3 roms (pandora 1.0, 1.1, PDAVIET-v6,v7) i have been having regular MANILA freezes. it would freeze within 12 hours of flashing, and in the last 2 flashes, it froze within 1 hour, without me installing anything.
Titanium worked fine. untill that started hanging too.
So i tried reflashing the 1.6 official rom, thinking that might clear up some bugs as its the official rom.
while trying to flash it (from my sd card directly) it gave up an error - Invalid DEVICE.
I restarted and went into bootloader again, and then i started getting this error :
UPGRADE ROM CODE ERROR
PLEASE TRY AGAIN
Now i have tried reflashing from the computer, and also from the sd card directly, 1.6 official , pandora 1.1, pdaviet v7, but to no success.
All the time it still gets stuck on that screen.
I have tried hspl'ing it again, it was successful - the hspl procedure, but then still no rom loads onto it.
Even tried using the sspl, but still nothing happens. With SSPL, it shows flashing as 0%, and stays there forever!
PLEASE HELP guys!
in a real bad situation!
Thanks!
so what is the device status currently?
can u boot into a main manilla or titanium screen?
Can you get to bootloader? Were you flahsing ROMs using SSPL or HSPL?
hi..
i dont know if this might work, try to get stock rom, xxx.exe, rename xxx.exe to xxx.rar and unpack it. you should see RUU_signed.nbh and rename to leoimg.nbh. put leoimg.nbh in the root of your sd card. and flash use vol down+power button.
oh, there was a mistake!
When you firstly flashed your device with 1.6 official from sd card, this removed hspl and the device checked your rom's region id. I guess you have used offical roms from other areas. So the process stopped when the device checked the cid.
At this stage, you should find out the offical rom from your area, and re-flash it from sd card, then everything will be fine.
But you didn't, you tried re-hspl and sspl...and i don't know what the consequence will be.
So? Did you get it fixed mate?
Any update? if you haven't fixed it yet PM me.
If it is de wrong region rom you tried to flash do you might need to flash it with a goldcard?
hope you got it sorted
Just flash your original rom using htc ruu will do. been there, done that
yeah flash the 142 or 148 rom that is appropriate for your device.. and use teh exe/ruu that came with it rather than sdcard.
what's the betting you needed the goldcard to flash 161? which is why you're having issues trying to reflash it ?
HSPL
Hi,
You could try this,
1) flash HSPL first.
2) flash the stockrom one more time from storage card.
This will erase hardspl so if you want to flash custom roms again you need to flash HSPL one more time after you flashed the stockrom.
Succes,
Leo
I have the same problem and I need the official 1.42 rom... do u know where I can find it?

Link from Dutty:
http://rapidshare.com/users/258XUJ
Your Leo was probably locked on your operator
at this point You've got to flash HTC official ROM with a Golcard.
Or your operator's rom directly from bootloader.
yep. I'm actually trying to get a gold card...
I've tried to create a gold card and hard reset but the setup fail

LEOIMG.nbh - FAIL
RADIO_V2 - RSA FAIL

Did you try flashing thru boatloader official Rom (from your region) ?
I tried to install the latest HTC official rom but the setup stops at 9%
"Error [290]: invalid command"
It seems a problem of Radio... not rom...

You have to flash 1.43 of your Region thru boatloader. If boatloader does not work thru goldcard.
I tried with italian 1.43 official rom also but the setup keeps stopping... Tried also using a goldcard, created using qmat

Restore stock Rom question

Hey guys, I figure I had better ask this time before I brick my phone because I believe I almost did. I was going to flash Elegancia v5 Final to my phone and I must have misread something and I flashed HSPL 2.08. After I flashed the HSPL I tried flashing the Rom and it got to 1% then stayed there and then errored. I restarted my phone like it said to do and I got the "Rom Update Failed" or whatever it was and with a bootloader screen (reset and volume down) I can get to it but it doesn't recognize the USB, only shows serial. Now from what I've read I believe I can download a stock rom and put it on the SD Card and flash by resetting into the bootloader and that should fix my problem, correct? I'm just unsure on which rom to flash, I don't want to do the wrong one and brick it. Found a bunch on this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655653) and I'm downloading 2.13.531.1 right now because I saw a video linking to that page saying you needed HSPL 2.08 to flash it, will that flash work with my problem? Or is there another one I should choose.
Found out I wasn't actually doing a hard reset (up AND down volume while turning on or using the reset button) after doing this it would recognize USB (I also removed the Sim & SD because it wouldn't flash from SD), got it to flash using Elegancia v5 Final afterwards. That...was absolutely terrifying haha, maybe I should leave the phone alone fora bit while I'm ahead. Only had it for 4 days and I'm getting way too carried away with testing things on it.
With that said...Core Android here we go.

[Q] can't flash Rom Stuck at 0%

i have hspl 3 installed and have installed custom roms befor on this phone.
my problem now is that when i try to flash new rom it gets stuck on 0%, i have tried from the sd card and using RUU Custom installer with no luck .
also i have done a hard reset, also have tried to install HSPL3 again even that gets stuck at 0%.
Has anyone come across this before and is there a fix.
You said "i have tried from the sd card and using RUU Custom installer with no luck".
Why do you use RUU installer when flashing using a SD card?
All you need is a SD card with ROM in it, and start the flashing from the phone.

If you get really stuck just re-flash the rom that the phone came with - i.e. the official one from your mobile operator - and you should be fine. You can find them on the net if you don't have it (e.g. on the HTC web site).
You can then start putting custom roms back on it.
Good luck!

if the version numbers you mentioned are correct, then you do not have a hd2.

[Q] Help on flashing back to original rom.

Flashing the original stock ROM over SD will remove HSPL, will bring your radio on the version who is integrated in stock ROM and brings you back on stock settings.
So the only thing you need to do is flashing over SD
thanks alot!

1) Download the correct Stock ROM from the HTC Webpage by using your S/N. (you will get a RUU_Leo_xxx_x.XX.xxx.x_Radio_xx.xx.xx.xU_x.xx.xx.x_LEO_Ship file.)
2) Right click on the RUU_Leo_xxx_x.XX.xxx.x_Radio_xx.xx.xx.xU_x.xx.xx.x_LEO_Ship file and select extract with 7Zip/WinZip
3) Prepared your SD-card (use a 2 or 4GB SD no bigger) and format it by FAT32
4)Take the "RUU_signed.nbh" from it and copy it to SD card.
5) Rename the "RUU_signed.nbh" to "leoimg.nbh"
6) Reset the device while pressing the volume down button
7) Follow the instructions mention on your screen

Get start to give us some more device information.
- witch Rom version do you have now?
- Radio version?
- SPL/HSPL version?
i tried to flash the latest official HTC ROM: "HTC_HD2_5CRUU_Leo_S_HTC_GER_3.14.407.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship" to get shure its no ROM problem.
Radio i had on my HD2 was: Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14 witch worked well for the last 3 months!
HSPL is: 2.08HSPL
i also had to say that before that i flashed gingerbread on NAND. working fine (exept battery drain and the default known ROM problems
an there i had also a VOL (-) problem (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906881)
because of that i wanted to change back to WM.
and thats the state know!
i first thought my bad usb-connector causes flash problem (i found 2 bad made conntacts under the microscope), thats why i flashed wia SD now.

First of all remove your HSPL; HSPL and stock ROM 3.14 isn't compatible and create lot of issues/problems.
allready done (by flashing via SD) ?!
as written here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623402
for me it looks like WM is missing a sound file or something like that, and thats why it permanetly switch down VOL.
because i get a "file missing" windows for a few ms, but there is no concret file name so i don't now really whats missing
is this possible?
i solved it!
I've got no idea why but its working!
I started the SD update process once more (the third time now
(nothing changed!)
what I've done is i waited after reboot till it locked it selves (screen black)
but i think that made no difference
probleme there again
once more bad news.......tomorrow mornig my HD2 is going crazy again :'(
actual state: my VOL(-) button isn't working.
so i think the real problem was my (know) defect VOL (-) button.
sometimes working sometimes not....
