Hey so i just picked up an hd2 on craigslist. when the seller handed my the phone he showed me the phone working and then did a hard reset so i thought nothing of it and took the phone while it was resetting. then while waiting for it to boot i noticed it was taking quite a while so i took out the battery and let it reboot, it turned on then froze on the homescreen. i've tried several hard resets and have gotten the phone to the point where it works but only after putting in a removing the battery several times and the phone sticking on the "stick together" logo. I was going to try to do the newest tmobile update on the phone using the one available on their website but now i have an issue plugging the phone into the computer or wall adapter as it will make the phone freeze and ill have to go back through my removing the battery 5 times process. is this some sort of common issue with a common fix or should i take the phone to tmobile or htc and see what they can do for me. i dont have a receipt as a purchased the phone on craigslist so im not sure tmobile will do anything for me.
Edit: i can now connect my phone to the pc i'm trying to update to 2.13.531.1 but i got to 8% but the update froze there and the phone currently has no image version. I'm using windows 7 ultimate and ive tried to run as administrator and with xp service pack 3 compatibility.

I would put the phone in boot load manually by holding the volume down button while turning it on, and remove the memory card and then reflash the tmobile rom
can someone also help me figure out how to get the ruu.nbh file off this rom and how big it should be so i can try to flash it from the sd card. thanks

i found a .nbh file on my computer that was 4mb and renamed it leoimg.nbh then tried putting it on a freshly formatted fat 32 micro sd car and went into bootloader mode but the phone gives me an upgrade error, asks me to try again and just goes to a white "loading..." screen now the phone is stuck here. its like the newest issue is the one im stuck with. now i cant get the phone to sync with the computer or run the .exe to recognize the phone

What error did it give you? Found an nbh file? was it from a stock rom? Do you have Hard SPL on it? If it doesnt have HSPL on it then you will only be able to load a stock rom

no i have not run hard spl so i can only install a stock rom a suppose. the exe gets stuck at 8%, i have no idea where the right nbh file is. i read somewhere when you run the exe it installs the nbh in a temp folder but im not sure i found the right one. ive also downloaded task29 and tried to run as admin but it doesnt do anything just goes to the htc install screen and stays at 0% Getting frustrating it was working fine actually before i tried to install the new tmobile software update. ive read that task29 gets rid of extra leftovers of other roms and might help the exe finish up on the phone and get past that 8% wall but it doesnt seem to be working for me
right click the stock exe file choose extract here, will give 9 or so files, one of them is about 200meg and is called ruu_signed.nbh that's the file you want.
randomly flashing nbh files that you don't know what they are, that's about the stupidest thing you can do...... you deserve a brick for being an idiot.

lol thank you for the words of encouragement, so i've extracted the .nbh file its 268mb, renamed it to leoimg.nbh tried the update from the sd card and it fails at the radio says, update terminated, update FAIL. any idea where to go from here?
Edit: i've run hspl3 on the phone is boot loader mode and have also run task29 from doloop but still get the same error with the tmobile file. 8% using the exe and FAIL trying to flash from the sd card
heh you're welcome. (i was harsh to make the point,,, if you found a random bottle of liquid that said petrol on it, you wouldn't put it in your car till you were sure it was petrol, right?)
as to why it failed, i'm not sure, i think i'd probably hspl3, choose 2.08.hspl, then try flash a radio on its own (see the tmous radio thread) because it could be a bad radio.
just please confirm the exact filename of the .exe you extracted ruu_signed from?

The first exe file, which got to 8 percent then went red and failed was
T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_2.13.531.1
After hspl3 and using task29 i tried flashing this exe which gets to 99% and fails
RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.02.531.MASD_S__Radio_Signed_15.29.50.07U_2.06.50.04_TeleNav-5.5.42
that second one, did you flash from sd card? cos its a manufacturing test rom, and if so then you may now be stuck with a test spl of 2.02, and if so things just got a heap worse,,,
go into bootloader and tell me what it says next to spl

i tried flashing using the .exe method in bootloader mode. next to spl it reads -2.08.hspl 8g XE
it now says
Upgrade ROM code error
ah ok, good.
so, it seems to be the radio causing the error, so since you have hspl installed, why not try a custom rom? they don't include a radio, so it may bypass the problem.

Which do you suggest, i bought the phone so that i could ultimately install android on it. but it seems i'd be lucky to even have wm running on the thing
Edit. just tried kumars classic rom, renamed to leoimg tried running off the sd card, The update finishes successfully but after i hit the reset button on the back of the phone i just see the tmobile stick together logo and the phone doesnt boot. Do a lot of people struggle with the hd2s or do i just have a bad example here?
well unfortunately i think you may have a dud. its the radio that is preventing it from booting.
it could be the radio from that test rom, it could be something else (but still the radio)
options...
its still under warranty, speak to t mobile and/or htc, but don't mention flashing and be sure to remove hspl if you do send it back. (run hspl3, choose 2.08.0000, that's stock)
or
look on here for a user called xmoo, he knows a lot about this sort of problem, (im just good with regular flashing issues)
im having the same issue so if you believe its the radio will installing different radio maybe fix the problem?
i;ve tried installing a new radio from the sd card. it goes red and fails
It sounds like a hardware issue at this point. I'm willing to bet you fried something when you pulled the battery in the middle of the master reset.
Hope thats something htc will cover. Phones on its way over
Ok, so I went to flash a new ROM on my phone, and when I go to the run the RUU, I get the screen with the 4 steps to complete, which are already completed, then hit next. Now I get "Error [240] : File Open" and below that it says "The Update Utility cannot open the requested file. Please check the update utility."
I tried downloading the Update Utility again, but it still does the same thing. Ive flashed my phone before, and Im pretty sure Im not doin anything different this time, but its not workin. Am I missing somethin?
Thanks

URGENT MAJOR HELP REQUIRED *PLEASE*:
I am stuck on DFT boot screen (after doing 1234-vol up_down-wp7-reset) and this is *after* (wp7 here !) all the chains b4 that are done: ie: power on, hspl, htc, magldr- for windows phone 7 on hd2. Sometimes get thru to windows phone 7. but generally reboots. Done spl back to stock and leoimg on sd back to stock and tried task28s, 29s, etc but just reboots constantly and randomly.
Any thoughts here? What is warranty process? DO they replace at all with NEW? or new BOARDS/RAM? Gone back to 1.66 spl and sent in for repairs. because - the stupid recommended Romupdateutility HTC stock rom 'upgrade' did this damage. yes, was Windows Phone 7 and activated using dev hack with marketplace & xbox/live. Also - although I activate ok and can use it on market fine once it boots good - still when both my hd7 (hd2) and Mozart are signed into XboxLive using same address at same time: (mozart is legit fully/eula-signed etc) then the hd2 seems to reset a LOT here at this point. maybe this has something to do with usual xbox-live security? ie: http://www.wpcentral.com/hack-xbox-live-windows-phone-7-get-perma-banned-microsoft ?????????? please hlp me - I am fully capable of mtty, sd-leoimg, whatever it takes- but need to know why this would be the case? same with Android roms/stock too. Anyone know about task2a on hd2? how many bad blocks I should have? partition/re-partition droid or wp7 to avoid these bad blocks? I just WISH Cotulla/DFT let you run the windows phone 7 installer in such a way that all bad bloks could be excluded totally as if the never exist... ie make hd2 clean.

Hi searched the threads and cant find the answer. HD2 512.Radio_2_14_50_04
Put HSPL on it no bother
Ran Magldr 1.3 it flashed, the phone said reboot but didn't. Took the battery out and the phone restarted but came up with the hit 1 error.
Put it in bootloader tried to flash a standard rom, froze at 0% then failed.
Renamed the Nbh file and put it on the memory card, back into bootloader, phone said loading but nothing happened.
Tried to run task 29 sticks at 0%
The bootloader is stating usb, so I have now ran out of ideas, so any help would be appreciated.

Here is my run down. try using a different USB port just in case it is a driver issue. Did you you use a 500MB to a 4GB Sd card formated Fat 32? Maybe you got a bad download try redoanloading or copying it to the SD card, maybe bad file transfer. Make sure you try running the update as administator. Heck just keep trying period, it seems like several people or having this kind of problem as you with not being able to get the phone to boot and then not being able to flash a ROM to fix it. But through perserverience they did get it to flash just had to keep trying and trying. By chance does it even show the screen on .oot up that has the R, G, and B in red letters if so what does the R and the D have beside them?
The minute you tried to flash a stock rom from SD,, you removed hspl, even if the flash stopped at 0%. In fact it stopped at 0 because hspl is no longer there to allow the flash and I suspect you used just any stock rom, not the correct stock rom.,,,, ditto with task29.

Hi The phone does go into the red/geen/blue boot screen. (will post later what the writing in red states)
Using a 2gig memory card which was formatted using panosonic and is fat32.
Tried different usb then a different laptop (both running windows 7) Tried a fresh download of the rom from HTC using the seriel no on the phone so should be the right one. Tried to run the RUU from both the laptop and renamed on the card. Not sure if its worth trying to put CWM on it?

Hi
The rom was the official one downloaded from HTC based on the phones seriel No.
Will try installing HSPL again and Magldr, but was trying to put a standard rom on, as all the comments advise flashing back to standard if your having problems. Cannot understand why it is freezing at 0% on the laptop, or just saying loading when i try to do via memory card.
Cheers

If you are using a computer with Windows 7 on it when you go to run the update utity right click it first then click run as administrator. Sometimes when using Windows 7 this helps.
Edit: Ifyou are trying to flash a Windows Mobile ROM then no CWM would not .ebifit you as it is for Andriod ROMs on the HD2.

Same with MAGLDR.
MAGLDR and CWM are ONLY for WP7 and Android.
Reflash HSPL , install the radio you named in the OP, then try a custom win6.5 rom such as Energyrom.....
Yea I understand, but when the standard rom would not run, tried a few android roms as well.
Now have managed to install the HTC rom from the sd card, but on reboot sticks at the white htc screen. Not sure if its maybe a battery issue. So am waiting for a wall charger to be delivered.

Make sure you have a current radio version and not a older version. The most current radio version is 2.15.50.14, and you can download it here. It flashes just like a ROM either via computer and USB cable or SD card, exactly the same as flashing a ROM.
you may have a nand memory corruption. The phone should have been capable of reflashing itself if you can get to the bootloader and use a proper stock rom. If your phone either fails to flash or flash completely but gets stuck on next reboot, you can have some corrupted memory sectors. The phone will be able to write on them but the information can't be read, therefore the phone will lock up. Think of them like bad sectors on a hard disk drive. I had these sort of problems with some older HTC's and Eten's, in some case you could eventually flash them but however you will still experience some problems or errors. In other cases it will simply fail on every flash attempt or at the boot screen. I only managed to fix these by connecting the board to a JTAG interface and marking those sectors as "bad" then reflashing the phone after i run a special version of bootloader directly from ram memory, line by line.
I also saw these problems on boards with problems in the cpu area (bad soldering, mechanical shocks etc).
I hope that's not the case with you, maybe you simply have some logical problems with the internal memory or the spl area.
Cheers, thinking of sending it for repair, now ran out of ideas. Installed the latest rom from HTC, it said everything from radio to wallpaper had installed correctly, but still will not get past the white screen with the HTC logo.
you can try another last thing. place a stock rom onto the memory card, place the card in the phone then place the phone in a transparent bag and put it in the refrigerator. Wait for about 1 hour, then... with the phone still in the refrigerator area, start it (don't remove it from the bag) in bootloader mode to flash it from the microsd card. Wait untill the process completes, then at the first restart when the phone is displaying the logo, quickly open the bag, remove the battery, then leave the phone & battery separate, in the bag for another hour in the refrigerator. After all this, remove them from the refrigerator and try to normally start the phone while it's still cold. If this doesn't work, then i'm afraid you have 80% chances of hardware NAND memory corruption/damage.
If this works, then you have a problem with the qualcomm chipset, it's pretty known, the BGA soldering between the chip and motherboard got damaged by excesive heat produced by the CPU and now some connections are not making proper electrical contact, thus producing errors in the cpu's normal operation. If the phone is very cold, the cpu and soldering will contract, thus giving the BGA matrix a chance to remake those electric contacts, for the moment - untill it heats up again.
The 2 problems can be related to each other. First, a CPU that works improperly (due to BGA failure) can disrupt I/O operation on the nand memory chip. Overtime this could lead to a situation where some memory blocks are destroyed due to improper handling by the qualcomm chipset and although the memory chip reports a number of blocks available for writing when you flash the device, some of these blocks are unaccesable when reading back. Somehow, if this is the case here, these blocks must be marked as damaged, so the memory chip's controller doesn't report them back as available and prevent them from being used anymore. I don't know how this can be done in HD2 as i don't have the hardware datasheet for either the qualcomm chipset or the memory chip itself. Like i've said, it was possible on some older devices by disassembling and directly connecting the cpu to a jtag bridge, as i could figure out how the cpu works from the original aplication notes and datasheets from samsung.
Thanks for that, my wife stuck it into a shop when I was out. (she is sick of me messing on with it)
They have told her it is only a software issue, not sure they know what they are doing.
If they do not fix it I will try this method.
Cheers
Just got a new phone, worked fine, put in my sim and sd, all was working perfect, then I went to music selection and it saw my songs on my sd card, i started playing one, the phone froze and just played the last note like its stuck on it, all buttons would not work.
I took off the battery put it back on now when i power up it just sits on the white and purple screen that says " stick together" the tmoblie logo, and wont move from there.
Removed battery a few times same thing, pressed the little hard boot button same thing.
Any advice?
thank you in advance.
The "little button" is the same as pulling the battery.....a soft reset.
You should try a hard reset, and failing that a fresh flash.

Sounds like you're using stock. Stock never boded well with me either, so maybe you should try a custom rom. Search on the how to's, you'll learn something.

Been using the stock ROM on my old phone for a while never had any one of the many problems that ppl have listed on this forum, but I cracked the screen and got a new one, and just ran into that problem.
Took the battery off and let it sit for a few, put it back in and now it loads and works, just odd, how that happen, haven't put my card back in yet but well test again hopefully it wont do it again.
don't mean to hijack but im facing the same problem
but mine is a world wide hd2. it freezes on the HTC screen
when i try flashing a rom from the bootloader (using RUU), it always gives me a image corrupted error message.

Have you had your HD2 flashed with HSPL?
K so its happening more and more now, some times it gets to the Launching HTC Sense part of the boot and then shuts off and tries to reboot.
Any one seen this before or know a fix?
Or just doomed?

the original HD2 came with defected sdcards so if your using the one it came with then that's why it might freeze...
custom roms are better at using the phones resources... just cuz the old one worked fine with stock doesn't mean this one would

No using a diff 16 gig sd card, and even when i take it out it still does it,
The problem with the custom roms, I dont like how most of them look and dont want to spend all the time installing diff ones to see if I like it or not, dont have the knowledge or the time for it.
I am fine with the standard HTC sense, just want to figure out why this one keeps crashing on load, what the conflict is.

maybe u can download the TMobile HD2 rom from their website. you need to put in your IMEI to download. after that, from what i did with my tmous before, was enter bootloader then run the utility and it should work perfectly.
if it still doesn't boot up then im suspecting a hardware issue?

rysky007 said:
Just got a new phone, worked fine, put in my sim and sd, all was working perfect, then I went to music selection and it saw my songs on my sd card, i started playing one, the phone froze and just played the last note like its stuck on it, all buttons would not work.
I took off the battery put it back on now when i power up it just sits on the white and purple screen that says " stick together" the tmoblie logo, and wont move from there.
Removed battery a few times same thing, pressed the little hard boot button same thing.
Any advice?
thank you in advance.

Bricked is when you flash the wrong radio, like I did, and your power button will not work. Phone will not power up at all.

I assume (since about ten people per day ask exactly this) that you flashed magldr but magldr didn't start as expected? This is caused by (as I type half a dozen times a day) by not having 2.08.hspl AND a compatible radio.

You haven't given any real details as to what you have done so far.
Details details details.
So, tell us what you did so far, please. Please be detailed, with names, filenames, versions, etc. not just 'i flashed that thing and now nothing works'
hope this helps more
ill start from the start
i first ran this file HSPL3_PKG.exe this run fine without any problems
then i ran this file rom updateutility from this rar folder ive downloaded called DFT_LEO_MAGLDR113_DAF
now this is where it all went wrong ,i ticked all the boxes and went thought the set up by following this video
got to 6;08 into the video and followed the steps
then got to 7;04 in the video and this is where the phone stayed on the htc screen for 30 mins ,,,and its done nothing
so i unplugged it
now i read that its possible to get the phone back to booting up with another offical rom from htc but carnt find the rom that ill need ,,plus the windows mobile wont reconise my phone in usb mode
hope this helps you a little more to solving my problem
and sorry i carnt post the link to the video yet as ive not done my 8 posts
ok, so its all fine so far, you just haven't yet done the next step, which is flash a compatible radio. (had you changed the radio after flashing hspl and before flashing magldr, magldr would have started straight away)
(I shall assume that you have a regular hd2, not a t mobile US model, since you haven't said, if it IS a tmous, then its a different problem)
download radio 2.15.50
enter bootloader
plug in usb
count to 5
run customruu to flash that radio
reboot
magldr should now start
thanks for your reply
ill go and find this radio now and keep you posted
thankyou
you rock dude
thank you so much for your time posting ,,
100% working andriod now
anything eles i should know please post
Lovely.
Only thing to know is that you shouldn't need to flash radio or magldr again now, if you want a different sized rom you may have to reflash cwm to change partition size, but if you ever have probs booting or whatever, nine times in ten someone will tell you to task29 and reflash stock and start over,,,, nine times in ten that's massive overkill.
Read read read is the best advice I can offer, see what issues others have and read the answer,, one day that issue might be yours, and you'll have a head start solving it. Never panic and start random flashing, that always ends badly, and means any help request posts are harder to work with.
thank for your reply
just a quick question for you
ive got a 16gb sd card in with about 300 app/games ,,and ive installed about 20 so far but now phone says memory full ,,should they be installing on sdcard instead of the phone memory
or is this normal for the phone memory to run out so fast
Depends on the rom, some leave 200+ free, some far far less. That's why most roms support an ext partition, which the phone treats as internal.
Backup your SD card (it will be wiped) start phone into cwm, then (I think its) advanced - format SD card, or something like that. Create a 1 or 2 gb ext partition, swap 0, and reflash the rom. C
The rest of the SD will be formatted to fat32 just like it is now.
It will detect the ext partition and use it as internal memory automatically. You should not choose the option to "move app to SD card", that will take the app off the ext partition and put it in the fat32 partition,, and some apps wont work from fat32.(angry birds for example)
