Hello all,
I recently purchased HD2, the first thing I did was going to HTC website and downloaded the latest ROM Version: 1.66.415.3, now my SPL version is 1.66000 XE. I searched the forum before posting this thread, but I did not find a clear post that answers my questions, and I am still a newbie in modding field, so please bare with me.
This ROM includes Arabic language support which I need, but its quite bugged, in away that most of the menus are in Arabic now, and even though I chose from the settings to have them in English, even disabling multi-language support wouldn't change the menus to English and they still are in Arabic.
More over some bugs, like the Arabic supported Keyboard will always play a very high click sounds, even if I reduce the volume, put it on Silent or Vibration, everything will be silent except for the Arabic Keyboard would still play the clicks.
So i thought there must be a fix for it, and the best possible way to do it in my opinion is Via installing HSPL, now the problem is I can no where find how I am able to Roll back to SPL 1.42 so that I can install HSPL, since i have SPL 1.66, So my question is, Does anyone know how and where can I roll back to SPL 1.42 so that I can install HSPL ?
My second question, Is there any Custom Rom that have full Arabic support meaning I can type and read Arabic Websites/Messeging/Email/MMS and such ? I saw Seatone's ROM that indicates Arabic Support, but I cant find anywhere to what extent it is ?
My third question is after rolling back to SPL 1.42 from SPL 1.66 and installing HSPL (assuming that this process is possible), Can I update to Newer SPL and still have HSPL installed ? or I would have to remove the HSPL in order to update my SPL ?
My last question is regarding RADIOS, can I install multiple RADIOS or I can only have one installed at a time ? Also for Backing up my ROM on my device (assuming I dont have the software on the PC), how do I do it ?
Eventually thanks for your time and consideration to help me in this matter, looking forward to hear some answers !!
All the official roms can be download here.

once download, I think you can just follow the procedures for removing HSPL to put it back to a standard factory state.
Thanks for the reply, but i think you got me wrong.
I dont have HSPL on my device currently, I have Factory SPL version 1.66, I want to install HSPL, but in order to do so I need SPL 1.42, the link you provided only includes SPL 1.43 ... and from what I read I HAVE to HAVE SPL 1.42 in order to install HSPL, please correct me if I am wrong ?

Good Night.
I have a HTC HD2 with the 1.66.0000 XE SPL, and with the following ROM "RUU_Leo_HTC_NLD_1.66.404.1_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship"
Because i update the ROM from the HTC Website, and it gave me that ROM, after i update it i notice that it is in NLD (Nederland), now i want to install other ROM and i Can't.
I want to do HSPL but to do that i need the SPL-1.42.000, to have that SPL i have tried to install other ROMS, but it had failed all the times with the following Error ("ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDOR ID ").
Need some help with this, because e don't understand NLD (LOL), and i want to install a PTG ROM.
.
Can anyone give me a hand? I have Telstra HD2 using on ATT in the U.S. and flashed to this ROM
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U_2.04.50_22_2_Ship
When I check the bootloader it says
SPL-1.42.HSPL
However when I try to HSPL it says.
You must have SPL 1.42.0000 and errors out. I read that if I flash any shipped OEM ROM it'll put it back to 1.42.0000 but it doesn't appear to be doing that.
Any help would be appreciated I'm trying to get any HSPL on this thing. I've also tried HSPL2 to no avail. It said bad ID or something.
Thank you in advance.

There are NO 1.43 roms that will work on your tmous, you WILL permanently destroy it if you do manage to flash one. The tmous will ONLY take roms version 2.x or higher
you are very lucky that you dont have hspl installed, else it would let you flash, and your phone would be dead.
So what do we do if we have tmous and want to install HSPL?

use hspl3.
Tried to load the official ROMs from the forum here, but both failed. Using a Telstra 9193 on AT&T. Can someone point me in the right direction? Do I need to load HSPL and a cooked ROM or is there something out there that's 'generic' I can use?
Sorry, new to the HD2. Already been through the ringer with my TyTNII but this is a new ballgame all over again, since I now have an overseas phone that's been flashed to another carrier.
Thanks!
you need hspl from the HSPL thread. NOT HSPL2, it wont work.
You need spl 1.42.0000 on your device to instal hspl, so if you have a later spl, 1.66.0000 for example, you need to find an earlier telstra rom to downgrade the spl.
Here, start reading.
I'm not a noob, already SPL'd my TyTNII, just needed to know which ROM was closest to the HTC OEM but unbranded from Telstra so I could start there and then begin noodling with what cooked ROMs I wanted to try.
Thanks for the pointer, I'll run HSPL and go from there. Just thought there might have been a generic HTC 9193 ROM available directly from HTC.

the model doesn't make any difference (well, at least in your and my case, its only tmous users that have any pitfalls )
for the plain roms (look in the official roms folder, first post first link is a great start) look for wwe htc in the name.there the unbranded ones, and go from there.

Sam, I"m stumped. I must be doing something wrong. I have SPL 1.66.0000 on my phone which according to the instructions should be fine for the current HSPL, but it refuses to load indicating 'incorrect product id'. I've also tried downgrading the SPL version via the card by extracting and renaming the .nbh file and copying it to the card, but when I hard reset, the phone goes directly from the bootloader to the screen which prompts me to reset the phone, rather than any option presented that enables me to load a different SPL.
I'm stumped. The standard generic WWE ROMs won't load, I can't get HSPL to load and I can't force it via the card. I must be doing something wrong but just can't seem to pin it down, other than the usual 'keyboard-to-chair-interface'. I never had anywhere near this trouble flashing my TyTNII.
What are your thoughts?
Here's what's on my bootloader screen:
PB81110 HX-BC
SPL-1.66.0000 XE
MicroP(LED) 0x05
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x40
OS Version 5.2.21869
Manila Version 2.520121431.1
ROM Version 1.72.814.0 (82124) WWE
Hey Mate,
I have the 9193 and Flash whatever whenever, now i'm seeing tmous and EUR and Telsrtra and I'm getting worried, can some one please explain the difference?
Thanks in advance
On an aside, I'm running Win7 Premium 64bit. Might that have something to do with this?
OK guys - finally go it. Had to locate and flash the Telus 1.48 ROM which took me a while to find. Got HSPL loaded and flashed a clean cooked rom. Thanks for the help!

I've had the best luck with a 2.08 radio and the Touch extreme ROMs for AT&T and our phones. Data only drops occassionally.
I was just wondering if anyone in Australia has tested this new ROM on their HD2 device as I'm interested in experiences people are having with it. I got a response back from HTC that says the included versions are as follows:-
OS Version:
5.2.21869
Manila Version:
2.5.20121431.1
ROM Version:
1.72.841.0
Radio Version:
2.07.51.22.2
Protocol Version:
15.32.50.070
HTC claim that it improves SMS messenging and improves the overall touch responsiveness and software lag on the device. Can anyone confirm as I'd like to know before I make the effort to upgrade/reinstall everything. I'm also hoping phone reception and bluetooth audio has been improved in the Radio version upgrade included in this ROM.

Can't really comment on this as it did not stay on my HD2 long enough for me to find out. I can however tell you that you cannot flash HSPL from this rom. It sets your SPL to 1.66 which HSPL2 cannot seem to deal with. I had to downgrade to the older rom version and then run HSPL1.
Why do want all that terrible telstra bloat? I can tell you your phone will run much faster without it.
I don't want all the Telstra bloat, I hate it. I was encouraged when I saw the message from HTC that all carrier customisations would be removed after upgrading the ROM
If I don't go with this HTC ROM, what custom ROM do you recommend? I assume Energy?

just to correct you slightly, HSPL2 wont work on any telstra, nothing to do with the spl version, it is the telstra model ID that fails hspl2.
You are correct about HSPL needing 1.42.0000 to install though.

I like Energy but there are quite a few other roms out there. ROMs are such a personal choice. What works best for me may not be to your taste. Try a few and see how you go, Most of the chefs in here have been around for quite a while and are very experienced in cooking so you really can't go wrong. Just don't forget to HSPL your phone first and read the ROM threads regarding which radio rom will work best with their ROM.

Ahhhh, thanks for the correction and enlightenment. I had a feeling it had something to do with the model ID as that is the error message I got when trying HSPL2. Sneaky Telstra bastards....
Ditto the problem with this new Telstra update, I had the same problem. It changes the SPL so to 1.66.0000 which will block any attempt to use another ROM or HSPL. Revert back to 1.48 and you'll be OK.

if you plan on flashing cooked roms, but want to try the 1.66 update before hand, you can install HSPL first, and then when you run the .exe shipped rom (over USB), it will only change the rom and the radio, leaving HSPL installed.

Thank you very much for the info! I got the telstra model. Unfortunately, I had upgraded the ROM officially to SPL1.66. And now I cannot use either HSPL or HSPL2 to flash the device!

My device originally had SPL1.42 on it. I did not flash to HSPL. And I upgraded to SPL 1.66 by flashing an telstra official rom, which brong me a SPL 1.66. And now I am stuck because I cannot use HSPL or HSPL2 to flash the SPL. Could you please tell me how to revert the SPL to an older version (1.42) then I could use HSPL to flash it again??? Thank you very much!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just realized that I could use the SPL revert procedure to revert the SPL
Uninstallation
Only way to remove the HSPL is to flash an original SPL from SD card.
- Take any "RUU_signed.nbh" from a ship ROM and copy it to SD card.
- Rename it to "leoimg.nbh"
- Reset the device while pressing the volume down button.
All I need now its theolder Telstra ship ROM with SPL 1.42. I went to htc/australia wedsite, And they only have the new ROM available for download. Is there a place to download the older ship ROM?? Thank a lot!

This is easy, you just need to flash the older Telstra rom version that uses SPL 1.42.0000. The rom you are looking for is 1.49.841.1 and I think you can download it from HTCPedia. Just ensure it is the Telstra version. Flashing this will ovewrite your current 1.66 SPL back to the correct 1.42 SPL. When you have done this you can use HSPL version 1 and it will work. I know because I did it myself a few days ago
Correct. There is a telstra 1.49 (1.48?) rom floating about, several people have used it to downgrade. Start searching!

hspl or hspl2? hspl2 doesnt work no matter what version spl you have. Use the first hspl.
try flashing RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe and then the original HSPL and then a new ROM...

I was also told my HD2 was locked to Telstra but it was not, (I don't believe any of them are now) I can send you the rom I used if you like? HSPL2 won't work as has been said before but HSPL does.
Another option I used while trying to get the right rom/HSPL working was to use SSPL, this worked great but does not allow you to change the radio, and until you can do that there are a few roms you cant use as they don't get on with the Telstra radio.
ps. I had a lot of similar error messages along the way...
I Got it, works perfect, I used the latest T-Mobile Rom from the U.S. on my T9193 Telstra, and its beautiful..thanks everyone for all the very helpful info, I could'nt have done it without you guys and keep up the good work..
Hi, friends i hope some 1 can help, i have a t-mobile htc hd2, and I have many problems and signal coverage in my country, and this is the second htc hd2 that i have, i damaged the first 1 touch, i want change the radio bcouse a friend told me it can solve the problem, but i have a question:
"What radio should i install my t-mobile to help me get maximum coverage and signal??? radio currently is: 2.08.50.08_2

Yes, you are on the right path except for the last part...You have to rename the extracted file (of the radio) to "RUU_Signed.nbh" and flash with the CustomRUU: it won't hardreset your device....Visit this link for more info on how to install a radio and this link for a list of TMobile compatible radios..
P.S. Different radios perform either better/worse for us all...As it all depends on ur location, service provider etc...So u can try different radios and see which works best for you but never flash a radio that's not meant for ur device as it might brick it.
ok, thx, i already made the radio change to the 2.14.50.04 but dint notice any difference in the signal, change to the 2.12.50.02, and still don't notice, im gone install the new 1 2.15.50.14 and see how it goes, guess i need to keep trying, thx again for responding, and btw im from Costa Rica if someone knows wth radio will be the beast for me, please tell me....

You have to test it out for more than a few hours to actually notice any difference btw.
ok, good to know thanks
Hey all, i have some problems with radio. I checked all threads and didn't found anything on this1. I've done hspl or smth like that to 2.08.
The thing is about radio, currently i can't do further and i got white screen + green htc logo and stuck at it, as far as i know i need radio update.
I tried that, eventhough i'm stuck at 0%, the thing is i have NOT t-mobile as most ppl here have, i have htc hd2, it was bought in lithuania officially and i'm not sure which radio version or whateva i need or what i do wrong! Sry if i posted in wrong section or did smth wrong, anyway i need help! don't wanna brick my phone, just bought it few hours ago and can't use it

dk if it helps, but on htc site if i select rom to update and choose my serial it tells that this fits me:
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.48.479.1_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship.exe
your hd2 is not unique; the majority have non-tmobile. actually there are many threads with your exact complaint.
but what you need to figure out is if you have hspl on it or not. you say you may have done it but then say 2.08 which seems more like spl.
so boot into bootloader, what does it say? then we can go from there!
2.08.HSPL, btw i found 1 user, he's from same country and city, propably got phone from lithuania too, he got in his sign: Radio v2.15.50.14 ;
can u check please if it's that radio ver?

If you boot into bootloader as the a ove post said you can check your SPL versiin this way. If you don't know how to do this just turn your HD2 off and then turn your HD2 back on but hd down the volume down button.The muticolor bootloader screen will come up. If you see SPL 2.08.0000 you have regular SPL. If you see SPL 2.08 HSPL then you have HSPL(Hard SPL) on your HD2. You should also se Cottula in the bootloader as well if you ha e HSPL.
You have a EU model HD2 so you can flash any radio version you want to flash and not brick your HD2. The issue of bricking a HD2 is only relavant to the T-Mobile(TMOUS) HD2. I suggest you flash radio version 2.15.50.14 it is the latest radio and the majority of poeple really like it.

Yeah MAGLDR requires a TMOUS compatible radio version to work. That is why you were having trouble before but gou have a TMOUS compatible radio version now so MAGLDR works. Hope you enjoy your HD2, and glad you got it working. I got your PM too by the way.
