[q] htc hd2 - htc logo stuck - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

HI,
I tried to install Android on this phone. I fallowed step-by-step tutorial, installed HSPL 2.08, installed Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14 ROM,installed MAGLDR 1.13 and after that I should get MAGLDR menu, but phone restarted and only shows white screen with green HTC logo. I tried to turn off phone and hold power button to enter MAGLDR, but nothing. A tried with Wipe and then repeat all steps above but still the same. Before on the phone was Windows mobile, but also not working. Can someone guide me how to fix this?
Thanks

You have to wipe the phone with Task29 from bootloader and at 99% of the process hold volume down, boot in bootloader again (4 colors) and then install MAGLDR v1.13. After that the only way to boot in MAGLDR is holding power button when you see Go,Go,Go and should boot into it. Repeat the steps, there is no other way and if not working you do something wrong. Remember to have full battery. Try mine, maybe you are lucky.

I tried, everything done with "succesfully". After installation of MAGLDR it's not showing GO, GO, GO and not showing RADIO and other stuff written with red color in lower left color, just white screen with green HTC.
Can I use something else then MAGLDR?

No, something wrong there and I telling you, this is the only way. Flash again HSPL4 and Radio, different one like 2.12.50.02_2 even if have nothing to do with the problem. Do you use ToolKit? Don't use that, flash separately all the steps. Take off SD and Sim card from the phone. If you stuck in logo because you do something wrong or the phone it's faulty but I never saw that before.

Is there any problem that in three colors screen on top is written "Security unlocked"? I don't use ToolKit, although I have it. I am doing all separately.

Security Unlocked? Never heard about that and no way this happen on HD2. When you are on bootloader on top should be written the type of the Chip, Cotulla HSPL 2.08 only. Anything else is just weird. It's your HD2 branded?

There is no difference then. On bootloader did you installed and is written CotullaHSPL? How do you installed MAGLDR? In MAGLDR you execute ROMUpdateUtiliy.exe? If you did then you should boot into it. To me the problem is you don't know ow to boot into it. Try keep pushing call button instead of power button but for me MAGLDR is not installed on your phone. I remember well when I installed MAGLDR I don't have to even push power button because it boot automatically. Did you performed Task29? Between this options you making some mistake.
BTW, I worry if your phone is not locked permanently. This kind of job doing the carriers of your phone but on HD2 to me is impossible.

I uploaded image of my screen in above post. It's written CotullaHSPL. I started ROMUpdateUtiliy.exe, and I turned of antivirus and firewall. Every time is "successfully". I done this already on my old HTC HD2, it should boot automaticaly or should show GO, GO, GO screen. It tried with holding power, holding call button, but nothing

This is firs time I see a problem like that on HD2. Try then instal MAGLRD from Toolkit, it's a last chance, should be no difference but maybe toolkit do something magic. If I know something I will let you know.

Do have other version of radio that you can upload or links for them? Seems that MAGLDR isn't going to start because of version of radio. I have Radio_2_12_50_02_2 and Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14

stuck after installing MAGLDR while installing NAND

oh i got a serious problem
after I install MAGLDR 1.11 my HD2 it succeed and did reboot and then it did stuck in white screen with hTC green log.
What to do? It cannot connect it to the sync with computer when it is with this screen. I tried so many time to reset it (with pressing long the power bottom) but I didn’t get MAGLDR 1.11 boot menu, so I cannot proceed to the next step which is installing NAND
My HTD looks like with no operating system only with white screen with hTC green log, What to do? Any help PlZzZzZzZzZzzzz?

Did you try reading the flashing instructions. Refer to the Flashing NAND Android rom link in my signature. The problem is that you probably have the wrong radio. Also please don't start new threads to ask questions when threads already exist. This thread will soon be moved.

Are you sure your spl version is 2.08.hspl and NOT 2.08.0000?
Completly!. SPL-2.08.HSPL as stated on tricolor screen. Thanks for the response.
And you also sure of the radio version? Really strange that it doesn't work. Where exactly does it get stuck, is it after or during the install of magldr?
Absolutely sure. All info is the one shown in the device. MAGDLR installs perfectly at 100%, it stucks at reboot, it shows the white htc screen and that's all, the device doen't work any more and I've to reinstall oficial rom.
Really weird - first one I've seen where 2.08.hspl and 2.15.50 radio doesn't get magldr to boot. Not sure what else to suggest apart from perhaps doing a Task29 to format the NAND area and starting all over.
I've tried one again, including task29 at begining. And i'm still the same, MAGLDR doesn't show the menu and stucks at login htc screen. I want to cry!. I'd appreciate any idea. All DFT needs MAGDLR, I need smthing that doesn´t need MAGDLR, is it possible?.
There are the Android versions that run off sd card which run as a dual boot with winmo.

well, maybe its kinda "stupid" question, but do you press the power (red) button while booting? I mean, you have to press it long enough, till the magldr menu comes up..
Believe me that i've tested that way, and another ones, so as to get it work, but no luck.
I got stuck on the htc logo screen while trying to boot to a previous NAND version I had. I flashed it right away for the first time but now I jsut got stuck on the logo screen an than its reboots, again and again. any help as now I stuck with the MJD CyanogenMod which I have few problams with and I am trying to boot again to hd2one CyanogenMod .

Potentially Unrecoverably HD2 Stuck In MAGLDR

Hi All,
For the past few months I've been running a DFT NAND build of Android. Yesterday, the phone was running extremely slowly with some odd behavior in the Android menus. When I restarted the phone, loading got as far as the DFT splash screen but then nothing else would happen.
I have since used MAGLDR (1.11) to attempt to boot a fresh Android image from SD card but this hasn't worked. Have managed to use the USB Loader to attempt to flash another NAND build (both Android and WP7) but even though the download process completed, this still didn't work and am stuck in MAGLDR now.
Have read through the forums here and have tried most (if not all) of the suggestions, however nothing seems to be working.
Can anyone offer anymore advice?
Thanks,
Kev
As MAGLDR gets removed if you flash a stock winmo rom I suggest you to try that!
Before you install the winmo rom you can also use Task29 to completely wipe the nand.
good luck
Thanks,
I shall give that a try this evening.
Kev
Unfortunately none of the suggestions have worked. I'm unable to flash a stock WM6.5 ROM as the RUU doesn't detect the phone.
The device does show up in Windows as a Microsoft USB Sync device, however.
Task 29 does not work either due to the same problem.
I've attempted to flash a new Android ROM release but when the phone reboots, it gets stuck on the green HTC logo screen and won't proceed any further.
I don't seem to be able to get MAGLDR 1.13 on the phone either, as DAF.exe complains about some "Config load failed" error.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Kev
*sigh*
you need to read up on "how to flash stock rom from sd card". no need for RUU i believe; sd card method involves copying a file extracted from the stock RUU and placing it in the root of your sd card and letting bootloader detect and flash the file. search for a tutorial or see the stickies.
once you've done that, make a special note about the part that says you need to boot into bootloader (hold down volume down + turn on phone + keep holding volume down until a 4-color screen appears). i suspect you are not doing this step, this is why windows, mtty, etc are unable to detect the device.
if you have already done the above, ignore my post
*sigh* too.
I've already tried flashing from the SD card but I have the same problem. I get to a green HTC loading screen and nothing else happens. I just get stuck in a reboot to MAGLDR and try again loop.
I've read through plenty of posts on flashing custom ROM's and troubleshooting but nothing has helped.
I don't get a 4 colour screen when holding down VOL-DOWN and the power button, the phone just goes into MAGLDR.
Kev
Just to add to that, Windows DOES detect the device but the RUU doesn't. Only the DAF applications find and can talk to the device.
follow me
1. is the battery have enough jiuce? what HSPL you use? hope its HSPL3 2.08HSPL
2. bootloader . . . .
Thanks for your post.
Plenty of juice in the battery.
I believe it is HSPL 2.08 (well, whichever allowed me to get Android on the thing in the first place)
Bootloader what?
Kev
getting into boot loader (4-color screen) is the key to the whole flash with sd card method.
keep trying. read on how to enter bootloader.
i can remember a few ways.
DEVICE IS ON
1. if phone is already on, hold down volume down (keep it pressed HARD)...don't let go of it!
2. push the little reset button under the battery cover. don't let go of the volume down button!
3. don't let go of the volume down button until the 4-color screen appears.
DEVICE IS OFF
1. remove the battery. reinsert it after a few seconds.
2. hold down volume down (keep it pressed HARD)...don't let go of it!
3. tap the end call button and don't let go of the volume down button until the 4-color screen appears.
remember, entering bootloader is the key.
EDIT: it is better to ensure you have sufficient battery. however, flashing via bootloader SKIPS the battery level checks.

in post 4 you noted you tried task 29 but was successful
you are not even familiar with bootloader, ??? makes me wonder
I'm very familiar with a bootloader, your "bootloader..." comment confused me.
Task 29 was unsuccessful. I've read in a number of posts that you can use Task 29 and start from scratch back at the original bootloader (rather than MAGLDR) but this obviously isn't the case.
Holding down the VOL-DOWN key does nothing other than get me to MAGLDR, which is what happens even if I don't hold any keys down.
I fully understand that the key is entering the bootloader, nothing seems to let me get there.

you got a bricked device,
you might get some help if you post your querry in the
HSPL thread, or PM cotulla and team
I'm of the same opinion; it is virtually bricked.
The stupid thing is that if I select Android Flasher from MAGLDR, I'm able to flash a different version of Android to NAND but it just won't boot.
Will try a different forum.

[Q] Bricked?

So guys I need help! I can't boot my phone! I can boot in to HSPL but that's about it. I can't boot in to MAGLDR. I tried running a Task29 but it just stays at 0%.
I've tried flashing MAGLDR and it's the same as the Task29... stays at 0%. Has my phone been bricked? Any help appreciated. I've tried flashing a stock ROM from SD and renaming the .nbh to LEOIMG.nbh but the first time I did it and it says to press power to confirm you want to flash it the phone just rebooted to the WSOD. Seems as though that changed my HSPL to HSPL.2.08.0000 now too instead of .HSPL. now all I get when I have the SD card in and boot to HSPL then when it boots to the grey coloured screen it just says "Loading...".
Is there anyway I can get my phone working again? Thanks.
Try to flash WM 6.5 1.66 version (or atleast the one below the most recent) trough SD method.
My kid brother had the same thing, the newest ROM (from HTC website) didnt work cause it gave a error.
If you keep getting some red error status while doing the SD flash, it might be bricked.
After a few tries with the SD method we were able to flash stock spl and such, but still the phone wasnt oke (but oke enough to send it for repair).

Just so you know, when you start a stock rom sd card flash, the first thing it does is reset the spl, THEN it tries to flash the rom, two seperate events, (the phone even restarts in some instances between changing spl and starting the rom flash) so even if the flash fails, or doesnt even start, theres a good chance spl has already been removed.
(side note for info - This situation is most likely to happen when flashing stock from sd card when hspl is installed, because the rom doesnt get rejected at first because hspl is there, but after the spl is reset and teh phone reenters bootloader, it no longer accepts the rom, because hspl is gone, so the phone is temporarily locked up with no hspl and no working rom.)
So, you now have stock spl 2.08.0000 and a non working rom.
enter bootloader,
run hspl (new hspl4 link in my sig)
choose 2.08.hspl
re enter bootloader
flash magldr (just to be sure its there)
if you need to, make sure your radio is high enough version (if you have tmous forget this, if its a regular it needs to be in the 2.10.50 or so version or higher)
from power off, start the phone, as the very first splash screen changes to the black magldr screen, start pressing power, untill the menu items appear.
Job done.
Oh and the line "....I have the SD card in and boot to HSPL ......" makes no sense. You are booting to bootloader. its still bootloader whether it has spl or hspl. Your terminoligy will confuse you.
Well I highly doubt I did. Maybe it just updated the HSPL but that's all. Didn't even get rid of MAGLDR on my phone! When I held in the reset button, it booted straight to MAGLDR.
Maybe mine was just a fluke!
lol thats what i said, in a long winded way. when you run an sd card flash the first three or four seconds it loads the spl from the rom on the sd card, thus removing hspl.
(or in your incorrect words 'Maybe it just updated the HSPL but that's all' - correct, it 'updated' HSPL back to stock SPL)
but hey,its sorted, so no problem.
It's still HSPL though? It's just the previous version that's .0000 instead of .HSPL or am I completely off? Do I need to flash HSPL.2.08.HSPL again or can i just keep it .0000?
Lol I'm stupid. Sorry, realise now what you're saying now that I've looked at the SPL properly. So do you suggest I flash HSPL now?
Sent from my FutureShocks HD2 MIUI using XDA App
Lol,
One simple rule...
If it ends 0000 it is STOCK
If it ends .hspl it is hspl
Yes, run hspl.exe again, choose 2.08.hspl
Haha well atleast I've learned now. I don't even read the first part which just said SPL. Fail. If I flash HSPL again do I need to flash MAGLDR again?
Sent from my FutureShocks HD2 MIUI using XDA App
possibly, cos teh same sd card flash that wiped hspl could have also removed the second splash screen memory area, which is where magldr lives. deopends how far thru the flash it got before it stopped.
easy to tell tho, let it boot, if you see the black magldr screen appear when the first boot screen vanishes,, quickly press power and it will stop there and show the magldr menu, if it hangs without showing teh magldr screen, magldrs not there, and you pull the battery, into bootloader, flash magldr.

You will still need 2.08.hspl if you want to reinstall or update your magldr version at some stage. It wont work on 2.08.0000.

Sounds to me like you arent rpessing quick enough. keep holding power from the moment you power on if it helps.
the instructions are to hold power (end key) right from turning on until magldr menu appears, but for me, i watch the first splash screen, and just before it ends (6-7 seconds) only then do i press and hold the end key. do not let go of the end key until teh menu appears, else it will continue to boto the rom.
Oh so all you wanted to know is if I can boot to MAGLDR menu? Yeah, I can lol.
Wait a minute, you can't have MAGLDR unless you have HSPL (HSPL3 2.08) if you have just reflashed HSPL, That means you still don't have MAGLDR, unless you have flashed it already in which case you still don't have a working ROM (Android or Windows 7) until such time you chose an Android or Windows 7 build. confusing?
Here is the sequence of flash events.
1. HSPL3 - 2.08HSPL
2. MAGLDR 1.13
3. Flash your chosen ROM.

HD2 stuck in bootloader after WinMo downgrade

I purchased an HD2 off eBay to replace one with a cracked screen. The seller had been running Android and had attempted to downgrade to Winmo 6.5 (no idea why) and now the phone is stuck in bootloader. I figured it was an easy fix to get it back to running Android from NAND, but so far I'm not having any luck.
The screen shows:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x30
It looks like MAGLDR isn't functioning as I can't install CWM (USB init failed error). When I plug in the phone the "USB" message shows up and I get the sound in Windows indicating a USB connection.
I've tried a number of different flashes but all complete much too fast and upon reboot I'm still in the bootloader.
Any ideas?
Install HSPL first.
Is HSPL not installed already? It says "SPL-2.08.HSPL" on the bootloader screen.
You don't flash cwm from that screen. You flash magldr and winmo roms and radios from that screen, then when you restart magldr should appear, assuming your radio is compatible. If not, flash radio 2.15.50 and if it still doesn't start you have problems. Don't touch the spl, you are correct, 2.08.hspl is fine.
First post was SPL-2.08.JSPL, I was thinking is something wrong with SPL.
I've attempted to install MAGLDR a few times and it completes in about 30 seconds instead of the 10 minutes indicated. After rebooting I'm still looking at the bootloader.
EDIT: Just to be clear, I want to get back to Android, not Winmo
Try to flash radio like Samuel said.
I flashed to radio 2.15.50.14, which appeared to work, and still stuck in bootloader.
I have the same radio and it works.
Clean Install MAGLDR:
1. Task 29
2. Flash Radio(2.15 Recommended)
3. MAGLDR 1.13
4. ClockworkMod Recovery
5. Flash rom
If you haven't success could be a hardware problem.
Reinstall winmo and if everything works retry an android fresh install.
This sequence appears to work up to the MAGLDR flash, which flicks straight from 0% to 100% completion. After reboot I'm in the tricolour bootloader screen (even if I hold down power button + down volume).
Just to check I'm flashing correctly, I've downloaded DFT_LEO_MAGLDR113_DAF and I unrar then run ROMUpdateUtility. Is this correct?
When the boatloader loads up, it flashes once as if trying to load something else (MAGLDR I assume) and the text at the top refreshes - don't know if this is relevant
I had a similar problem after my repair. Look into my topic to see if you have he same problem!

Stock rom is running agian.
This is what I did:
1. Put USB in Telephone.
2. Go to red/blue/green flash screen using Volume Down.
3. Flashed using official HTC Rom Updater on PC.
4. Restart Device.
I have however, been scammed.
Remember those 'touchscreen-lines' that run diagonal on your touchscreen if you watch very closely?
They are not present on my device.
This is fishy.

Damn, really wished I've went to Vodafone. They are expensive, but at least they are honest.

Nothing unusall there. Its the way you get into the bootloader. To get into magdlr: turn of your device then hold down POWER button (power button only) till magldr menu shows up.

I'll give this a go. On boot, the phone enters the tricolour bootloader screen without me doing anything

i have never opened my hd2 that far, so i dont really know, sorry. I guess you will need a screwdriver but i would look for some tutorials on google on how to open it correctly/safely.
So the only way I should be seeing the tricolour bootloader screen is by holding the down volume button? And if I'm not it means it must be stuck?
I guess the only thing to do is pull it apart then!

yes, volume down to enter tricolor bootloader.
if its stuck? not sure 100%, but very very likely.
I have this same problem. Anyone find a fix for it? Or is it hardware?

[Q] Oobernooby pain. Any help appreciated!

First things first.....first post!
Ok so I have the HD2 512 version and have put hspl 2.08 on it with no problems but when I have tried loading magldr1.13 the install seems to go ok on the phone but when it reboots magldr doesnt launch it simply stays on the default white htc launch screen.
My own fault for following a youtube video I guess.
The handset lets me reflash magldr which I did a couple of times and I tried an older version of magldr and also used the nand toolkit to try and install magldr but still the same white screen on launch.
Any ideas whats going on anyone? help appreciated with thanks

Are you sure you installed HSPL correct? Hold down the volume button and press the power button, till the rainbow screen, does it say something about cotulla hspl? If yes, connect the phone to the computer(still in the rainbow screen of course) and wipe the device(task29). After that your device will be totally clean and the correct radio is installed. So you will have to press the volume down button again to enter the rainbow screen and then install magldr.
Yes it does say cotulla.
So I tried what you said I connected in rainbow screen and pressed wipe(task 29) in the nand toolkit (wipe from the toolkit right?) but in the rainbow screen it says cotulla still,
tried magldr again, same white screen
when you saying "launching Mgldr", are you pressing the power button(end key) when the phone boots? this way only you enter Mgldr and loads the menu
Yes I have tried holding the power button on powering on the device and tried it without holding, still the same white htc screen and no movement from there.
When I wipe the handset it still has SPL-2.08.HSPL on it and still says CollutaHSPL.
I'm guessing I should try and restart from scratch??
you havent flashed a compatible radio yet, , magldr wont start without it.
enter bootloader
usb
flash radio 2.15.50
reboot
magldr.
Ok I will try that now. Is radio 2.15.50.14 ok?
Wahey! I'm in!
Thanks very much you guys are legends!
Right next step haha. Don't worry I'll read up on it don't want to hassle anyone.
Any suggestions what are the best roms for WP7 or ICS??
(and if you have time point me in the right direction of them)
Any other step I am missing?
Again thanks for your help
