Hi all,
I bricked my Magic last month trying to flash an engineering SPL onto it. It's stuck at the Vodafone screen and won't go into bootloader nor recovery. I've tried the trick detailed in the How I Un-Bricked My Bricked Phone thread with no luck and I've tried it for weeks.
I'm going to try to JTAG based on this guide but I need the hardware. Just wondering if anyone local(ish) has the hardware before I spend $90 or so.
Even better would be someone who could do it for me!
Anyway, just giving it a shot. Hopefully there's someone out there...

Hi guys
I am having my friends Artemis in my hand. I never used this phone. But because my friend knew that I am a member of XDA he has challenged me to solve this problem. I have been trying hard to really make it work but somehow or the other its just not working. I tried microsd way, official ROM way, radio upgrade way but its just not working. Its showing update 300 error on all such attempts. Here is the technical information.
ipl 3.07.0001
spl 1.11.0000
I think its CID unlocked but yet its not taking any ROM.
It just gets me greenblack screen other than the bootloader whenver I try to switch it on.
Would love to know why is it happening as soon as possible, or else it will be shame for me inspite of being member of such a smart community.
Looking forward...

Same is the case here, I am not so well versed with this old p series phones. I am still waiting for some solution to this grave problem. I took it to some technician but he said its motherboard problem which is something I am not convinced of.
I tried mtty being in bootloader but nothing happening. No support for the same problem is there anywhere. Looking forward to have someone with same problem experience.
Plz guyz this phone is dead,help us to make it alive. Cheers.
so sad. what we do now?
Actually my friend(my cousin) got this device from a scammer & I being the one who bought on this behalf has to make it right. It was just a few days old & here I am with this dead device.
I will disclose the name of that scammer so everyone at xda should beware from indulging in any transaction from him.
I got this deal from some other India forum.

Corepda
I had a similar problem before when my orbit locked during a flash, from my knowledge your only way to fix this is by using an sd card, I used the sd card method with my carriers wm5 rom.
Note i had some problems with the SD Card flash method at first until i eventually used an old 256mb card, try a few different ones, borrow a card if yo need to and remember not sdhc and format it fresh. I wish you luck
Since you guys can´t enter bootloader, u may have a brick, .
Have u tried to get in contact with the QMAT guys?
Maybe they know how to fix it.

Well unfortunately, my 6.5 update made it to only 87% and then bricked the phone. Looks like hardspl did not take as it is not saying hard in the bootloader. Is there anyway to get a verizon 6.1 rom? Does anyone have one?
I would be very grateful for one,
-Chris
I'm in same boat. I'm attempting to use this(http://www.wmexperts.com/verizon-ozone-unofficially-gets-official-wm65) to fix it.
Please let me know if you get a fix, I'll do the same.
Nothing in the Sticky for unbricking your device helped?

Not really... espec if there is no fac roms in the wild. That's why I'm excited about an 'official' rom out there, it could help a lot of bricked ozones.
So far no luck with mine, I'm letting bat recharge.
Success!
We can now use our phones. WOOT!

Hi Guys,
While searching for solutions to unbrick my HD2 TMOUS i came across this gadget.
It connects to the HD2's PCB directly without soldering. this connection adapter is available at http://www.multi-com.pl/index.php/en_US,details,id_pr,7912,menu_mode,categories.html which costs around $16. but the expensive part is the adapter that connects to the PC to flash the phone. this costs $229. http://www.multi-com.pl/index.php/en_US,details,id_pr,6503,menu_mode,categories.html
Its all expensive for an individual to buy these gadgets. but there is probably people or service centers who own these.
Do you know of any place where we can get this phones unbricked other than the HTC service centers?
Cool, looks like something that could be very useful.
Cool.. i knew somebody should be having it around here.. keep us updated..

Hello,
I've a bricked HTC HD2 1024LEO from US T-mobile I've unlocked and I've 2.02 ROM but can't anymore change... Can someone help me, I live in Belgium...
I also have bricked HD2 LEO phone and I need the full dump to flash it with jtag since it can not enter to boot mode anymore. and the SPL area is damaged too, now the only solution is to full flash it with JTAG.
I already have the ORT JTAG tool and the phone is connected OK to the JTAG interface but I do not have the full dump for this phone.
will be grat if anyone can send the full dump for it so that it can be revive, I already tried to search for the full dump but it is not there.
Best Regards
SPL is required at least partially to work in order to have JTAG working.

I've used the Riff Box on my T-Mobile HD2. I'm not an electrical engineer so I also used the Multi-Com HD2 USA PCB. This worked perfectly and my device turned on again after three weeks being dead.
Cost me a lot for the postage of both items seperately to New Zealand (about NZ$120). There is a brick fix dll for the HD2 so its just a matter of reading the instructions and forums carefully before attempting the ressurection.
I suppose I would be happy to help anyone living on this side of the world.
yes it worcks
hi guys i did try the jiff jtag and it works , i contacted the guys at multicom and i send my phone there , they fix it and now it works perfect , all that i can say to you is please be more careful
good luck
Hi guys
Really like the forum
Ok
So i've been asked to unlock a this phone as a favor
So got home after having some drinks(not the best idea) and tried unlocking it
Long story short i installed a wrong spl as i understand and now the phone stays on the splash screen
I did lots of research in the forum, allot of ppl have the same problem, but didnt find a complete answer on how to fix this
as i now understand i should first application unlock it, then hard spl and then flash custom rom
On the Bootloader it says
"cEDA100
SPL-0-39.0000
MicroP-Cedar.W(LED) v58B"
And on the bottom "Serial" witch as i now understand means its not application unlocked?
So when i try to flash it it allways stays on 0%
And as i said it stops on the htc splash screen
Tried hard resetting the first way, but nothing. Cant find the original telus rom and i dont have an htc donor to do the 3rd hard reset way
Any help would be much appreciated right now guys ASAP cause am leaving canada by 2mrw
Thanks for reading
Hope u can help
Moved to general as not rom development
Anyone?
C'mon guys xD
Give me something
^^
Hi There,
I have an HTC HD2 T-mobile USA. I was dumb enough to flash the "RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26.50. 07U_2.04.50_22_2_Ship" into my phone and now it is dead.
I read in some previous posts that I could try to SD-card-flash the stock ROM2.13 (under 4G card, changing extensions and renaming the file, entering the Bootloader, etc.).
I could not find a "stick" post with step-by-step instructions. For instance, I need to know more on how to access the Boot-loader on the HD2
Is there anybody out there that tried this method with success? Replies to previous post are unclear on that.
Thanks
K
its dead. the radio in the rom you flashed has destroyed it.
two options
warranty/repair shop
jtag

Can you tell me more about the Jtag process? Is it possible for me to do on my own?
Please, advise.
Thank you

Honestly, not to seem like a douche...but if you bricked your HD2 by flashing an incompatible ROM, after all of the warnings and such that are everywhere about the .51 radios, I think that JTAG'ing is a little out of your range of skill. It involves takeing your device completly apart, soldering 5-ish tiny wires to tiny pads, and then reflashing the original SPL to your motherboard...not an easy task by any means. I would phone up HTC or T-Mobile and see what they say about warranty/repair.
Before you send your phone away to HTC or try to get your phone company to replace it, try here:

My very first flash went badly, I think due to a bad usb cable, and this was my only way out.
If this works, you'll be stuck on the test rom, but it is fully functional and still can be customised just about as much as any cooked rom, with a little time and effort.
Best of luck!
