You have to READ and understand first before jumping into Flashing ROMs. Out of all the ROMs out there... Flashing Dutty's 2.7 is the most confusing, especially if you are new to ROM Flashing.
First of all, you would have to flash HSPL (Hard SPL) or USPL (Universal SPL) on your device to flash Cooked or Custom ROMs. Do a bit of reading on these 2 topics on the forum.
Learn about Bootloader mode.
Then go through the ROMs that are posted on the forum. Go through their change log, features, tweaks and programs that come with the ROM. Usually most of the Chefs post Change Logs and Screen shots of their ROMs. Go through the last few pages of the thread to know about any issues and solutions.
Then decide on the ROM you are interested in and go ahead with flashing your deivce.
Now, regarding the current state of your deivce... I am not really sure what exactly you did.
Try Removing the battery and put it back.
While holding down the Volume Down button, press the Power button. Your phone will enter the Bootloader mode (Tri color screen, rather 4 clolored sceen with White at the end).
Download one of the Stock ROMs they are also called Ship ROMs. Please do not download ROMs with version number 1.56.XXX. They are the latest ROMs and since I am not sure what state your device is in, I would recommend you to download a 1.14.XX version Stock ROM.
Then connect your device while in Bootloader mode and run the Stock ROM. You would get your device back to the original state that you bought it.
Thanks

Read the instructions properly. Here's the simplified version:
1. Flash a stock rom (e.g. 1.14.xxx) with 1.14 SPL. They also include the stock radio.
2. Flash stock SPL 1.14
3. Flash a 1.56.xxx stock rom (with 1.54 SPL). It also includes a new stock radio.
4. Run USPL 2.5(!).
5. Run the included RUUWrapper and install dutty's rom
kieboy
3. Flash a 1.56.xxx stock rom (with 1.54 SPL). It also includes a new stock radio.
do you have a link for that?
sorry
I found it myself, but thanks for the help
Hi there,
My brother also has an HD and off course I put a nice custom ROM on it
However, the screen is dead since yesterday.
I already put the original dutch ROM on it, but it shows a nasty green windows screen. I can't get any further beyond allign screen...
My question: when he sends his HD to HTC, they will probably won't fix it, because they can see it's HSPL (?).
So anybody knows how to restore to complete original, without getting into the phone with cabs? I put HSPL on it, the phone is 6 months old.
Any help would really be appreciated!!!!
Thx a lot

You can restore original SPL and rom without having to get into phone with cabs.
As long as you can enter bootloader screen you can restore stock SPL.
I came across this "step for step" process via a search. I have not tried it yet (and hopefully never have to -
How to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!
0. be sure to first restore stock OS, and stock radio. stock SPL is always to be done last!!
1. download your choice of a stock spl package (ie the original SPL).
2. also download the original hardspl from the attachments in this post. (I presume you already have this?)
3. run the hardspl exe but do not click anything in RUU yet. just let the hardspl EXE extract the files for flashing. (You can probably skip this step)
4. the SPL you want to revert to is a .NBH file, put the stock SPL NBH in the extracted hardspl package, overwriting the original NBH file in it!
5. continue with the RUU (or if needed, run SSPL-Manual.exe manually, then run RUU when it goes to tricolour 1.07.OliNex screen), it goes to 100%, reboots, done.
+6. to verify, enter bootloader mode, see version number on tricolour screen, should now just say 1.14.0000.
that's it.
+7. no worries: if your device is stuck in bootloader mode with Hard-SPL and you need warranty service, you can still flash stock SPL.
As I said, I have not tried this. If this does not work, search on this site or Google for additional info. Hope it helps.

Thanks for linking to the post, I just added the steps
The OP however says that they have already flashed back to the stock ROM, but that the colours are screwy. This needs the stock SPL restored as well in order to recover normal functioning (or at least so that they can send in for repairs without voiding the warranty).

note that; if you restore stock SPL 114 or 115 please download the same rom version for flashing.
ex: when you restore SPL 114 you must have ship Rom:http://rs68l32.rapidshare.com/files....479.3_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship.exe
because the different SPL & Rom version will make wrong screen.
wow, thank you very much for the quick and usefull replies!
I installed this ROM:
http://rapidshare.com/files/2189268...6.404.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe
So after this I have to install original SPL? Can you guys see which one?
Thanks in advance!

The process of restoring stock rom/SPL is only to be used if you plan to return device. If you are wanting to keep you you mentioned earlier then you would need to put either USPL or HSPL on your device first. I would recommend USPL for you as it would be easier to return to stock SPL afterwards.
Once you have rom on your device, DO NOT restore stock SPL afterwards. You only restore this if you plan to return your device. If you did you would have to go through whole process of putting USPL or HSPL onto your device again to flash another rom.
The phone has to be returned because of screen problems.
I will put SPL 1.13 on it and then flash the earlier mentioned ROM.
Then return to HTC

No probs. Out of curiosity what screen problems do you have? Are they Hardware problems or is it something else which could possibly be fixed through the assistance of xda users
It's the phone of my brother, he tells me that the screen doesn't respond anymore, so he can't get past the calibration!
I'll give an update when HTC fixed this (or replaced it )
Thanks for all the help!
I'm doing this right now. I had been using Dutty's V6 before. I never updated the radio, so Ishouldn't have to change it, right?
Anyway, I flashed the stock RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe rom, and that went fine. I'm trying to flash the stock 1.13 spl, and I get error 202: connection. It thinks it can't see my phone, even though it does the initial connection, and even sees what version (1.56) of the spl is on there. Any ideas?
Ok, I did this: I put the phone into bootloader manually by pressing up when it boots up to get to the tricolor screen. That let me run the 1.13 spl pdate, and it said it completed successfully. However, when it boots ups, it still shows D:1.56 olinex or whatever. Did it not work?
Ok, acutally I think it did load up. The Bootloader shows SPL-1.13.0000. So why does it show:
R1.13.25.24
G52.62.25.34u
D1.56.00.00
Is this ready to send in for service?

If your SPL says 1.13.0000 then you are fine to send phone in for service.
R1.13.25.24 - Radio Version
G52.62.25.34u - Protocol Version
D1.56.00.00 - ROM Version

You say you are trying to install HSPL 1.15, I presume you mean SPL 1.15? The behaviour you describe about the blue/green screen indicates that you have the wrong SPL. What version is your stock ROM, because if USPL 1.54 runs fine with your device, perhaps your stock SPL is also higher than 1.15. I suggest that you try a few other SPL's, most likely to be 1.54. You can download this here
Plenty of threads already exist about returning to stock for warranty, as well as advice in wiki and bottom of first post in HSPL thread.
Future correspondence should be directed into that thread.

Try Putting your Phone in BootLoader mode.
Flash it with HARD SPL1.56
Then Try Installin a Fresh firmware again, a Hard Reset n it will be fixed.
I did all of this...
Nothing, I think I must send it to HTC...
I think your HD died touchscreen . You need to bring the HTC Service Center for repairs. If you is bought on ebay then there will pay for about 200 USD
My Touch HD just died
R.I.P. !
Damn all was working nice.
I did nothing.... Only flashed all days another rom
And when i wanted to call a friend yesterday,the screen didn(t respond anymore....
Grrr, I will send it to HTC this week, and i will by a Topaz One...

DIY for 30 USD..ebay the spare part.
Had one same condition and fixed flashing with an original rom. Radio+Rom and Align screen on startup/\
I was in same condition as yours ,When in typped align scren nothing but after flash and a hard reset everything getback
Me, nothing after flshing original Stock ROM and originalHSPL.
But solething is very strange.
When the backlight power off (the dimmer), it comes back when i hit the screen... But i can't align the screen, the screen doesn't recognise my touch.
Why the dim is working when i hit the screen ans my gesture are not recognised?
Thanks a lot
Greats from France
It looks like only the alignment of the screen is wrong. Why it does not get fixed when flashing original ROM is strange. But the fact that the screen response to touch (returning from dim) should mean that the digitizer is OK.
Yes I think the digitizer is OK.
But I don't know what the problem is.
I will try to reflash tomorrow a custom Rom without align to screen at first boot....
Thanks
try mtty to completely erase ur internal memory..
then flash stock rom..
Ok, a few simple queries to help solve your issue. I'm assuming you used USPL or HSPL before flashing rom? and correct version of HSPL? Can you still access bootloader? What is your SPL?
If you can access bootloader, all is not lost and your device is not bricked.
I'd recommend flashing original stock rom onto your device and starting from fresh. Stock roms can be found in the wiki here. Once you have restored stock rom and if you still want a cooked rom, follow thisguide.
Let me know the answer to the above queries and how you get on.
Hi,
I used the SPL by Olinex.
Now i revert back to the original SPL.
When i enter in booloader mode, I can see: SPL-1.54.0000
Is this ok?
Before flashing the origal SPL i flashed the original French Stock ROM.
What is MMTY ?
Thanks

Solution should be found here including MTTY info & instructions. Same method for HD
Hi All,
I have used the search function - but ended up getting confused.
I have a Touch HD that I bought in January of this year (2009) from Mobiles.co.uk (Carphone Warehouse) and is on the O2 network (UK).
I have been using Dutty's ROMs (both 6.1 and 6.5) for months now - and have always used USPL when flashing, using the SD card method.
Over the past 3 days, my HD has been playing up.
When it started, I was using Dutty's R7. The radio was 1.14.something.something. The device was working perfectly, and I was really happy with the ROM and the way the phone was working. I had installed NO other applications with the exception of a different taskbar and obviously SDKCerts.cab
First of all, HTC Sense stopped working - it would cycle between "Loading HTC Sense" and "Tap here to launch HTC Sense"
Then, when rebooting the device, it just hung on the "Smart Mobility" screen. I left it in case it just needed a while to boot, but nothing.
I had no other option than to hard reset.
It worked OK for a few hours, but then HTC Sense started to crash again. So I flashed a new ROM - Lost in Asia or whatever it is called.
Same symptoms.
I flashed Dutty's R7 back and also the new 1.17 radio.
No joy.
The phone also hangs for ages on the Smart Mobility screen - perhaps a full minute where as before, it used to be no more than 15 seconds or so.
The following is displayed on the "Smart Mobility Screen"
1.17.25.09
52.69.25.37H
1.59.Dutty
The bootloader screen (before running USPL) shows the following:
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) V6
So the question I'm asking - is... Is my phone suffering some kind of hardware malfunction, or is this a known and fixable fault that I somehow have caused?
If the phone looks like it is malfunctioning, how would I go about returning it to stock so that the CPWH repair centre do not know it's had an unofficial ROM installed?
I'd like to add that whilst I'm very PC literate, I'm no programmer and a lot of the stuff here is alien to me hence my confusion - I just know how to flash a new ROM etc.
Thanks to anyone that takes the time to help me - I'd be really thankful to anyone that helps me sort this - be it tell me how to fix the device, or tells me to take it back!
Thanks in advance & Regards,
Chris.
Will D/L and flash Dutty's R0 Holy Grail ROM and see if that makes a difference...
If you've been using uspl than it will still be the stock spl and thus you could try to load the stock rom from htc.com specially designed for the touch hd(blackstone). I've read and heard from a lot of people that after flashing several roms and even hard resetting afterwards, some bits and pieces stay behind and flashing an original stock rom will undo this. I don't think it's a radio issue. And another big thing if you use dutty R7 that's a 1.56+ rom so you should have the right uspl olinex software to load these roms, if you used older software then problems with colouring and other things will appear.

Thanks for the quick reply.
So is it perhaps better to revert to the original ROM before flashing a cooked ROM? I always Hard Reset twice after flashing as understand this helps.
OK - so the 1.56+ situation - I was under the impression that using the latest USPL (2.5) when flashing was OK? I have never had the colour problem... but perhaps if I'm flashing wrong then these problems could be to do with this?
Thanks again...

The Sense Manila has known bug that you need to press home to load it (sometimes).
For you case, I would suggest you to clean up your SD Card.
there may be several file that cause your system to freeze.
So, format your SD, hard reset.. and cross fingers.
Yes, It is better to revert to the original rom once in a while before flashing a new rom, if u used the latest uspl and the colours are ok, then you've done that right and it will probably be bits and pieces of old flashed roms floating around on the device.
Best to revert to stock rom and hard reset twice.
Afterwards flash the rom u want. If everything works again. U could hspl instead of uspl, hspl is more stable if u ask me. And you can go back to stock spl if you have waranty issues. there's a tut on that to in the rom section.

I forgot to mention - that was one of the things I did. Previously, I had loads of email folders from all the ROM installs.
Now I have a folder containing the useful CAB files that I need, and the ROM image file. Thats it.
It's only a 1gb card as my 8gb card gave up the ghost.
Thanks for the suggestion though and my apologies for not mentioning this in the initial post.
From reading the Dummies guide, am I right in thinking that in order to use a 1.55+ ROM (such as Dutty's Holy Grail R0) I only need to run USPL and then flash (as opposed to flash a newer SPL) as my stock SPL is already 1.54?

Thanks for this - I didnt realise the device would retain bits and bobs, and you may well be right in that things are getting corrupted in there!
Which is the best stock ROM to flash - is there a link to one? I looked on the Wiki and there seem to be loads... which will work on a UK T8282?!

what do you mean hang for age?
1 minute is nothing if it turns out boot up.
There are chances that the nand flash needs to refresh and wasted some times. But it won't be forever.

there's an original rom on htc.com for blackstone just use that one.
hope it will turn out right for you
I thought I'm the only one who had this problem. Last Sunday my blackstone started to freeze on the smart mobility screen too. I flash 3 different roms because I thought its an rom issue with no luck. On Monday it even managed to hardreset itself after I waited for about 15 min in the smart mobility screen.
After that I flashed a stock rom and it seem to be fine by now.
But now I will flash a custom again, the stock one is so 6.1
