I can't seem to find which SPL comes with the tilt 2. I semi-bricked my phone and I need to flash the stock one back before going to ATT. Right now I flashed back the .87 SPL. Can anyone help?
It doesn't really matter. All Stock SPLs are the same as far as manufacturers are concerned, so long as it doesn't say OliNex I don't think anyone will check.
You could always flash the Shipped Exe from your supplier over the current .87 stock SPL.
Any more problems, please ask in the Hard SPL or ROM flashing thread.

Ok guys... at the risk of sounding like a noob, I'm seeking some clarification on the Greenscreen issue in relation to my experience this morning...
New Oz Telstra Touch HD (SPL 1.15) received last night... downloaded latest EnergyROM this morning and used latest USPL (2.5) to flash ROM (via Windows Seven x64 with reverted drivers).
I wasn't expecting to see the greenscreen issue but alas it booted with ugly g/screen... I just turned off the screen and did a little research, got confused, turned screen back on and all was good (colour had returned to normal).
It appears that the colour is only screwed up during the boot cycle... once finished everything returns to normal.
So, what I'm asking is can someone advise me what I've done wrong and how I rectify the g/screen... I don't wish to use HSPL and I'd prefer to keep the original SPL if possible.
I couldn't find what ROM version the EnergyRom is - maybe that's where I've come unstuck??
Your help is always appreciated,
Cheers...
Well I gave up on using USPL and flashed the latest HSPL and all appears ok at this stage (at least no further g/screen).
Hope this helps another Telstra HD user...
I think it was because you went straight from 1.15 to a 1.54+ ROM, and because you used USPL it didn't update your SPL.
By using HSPL the SPL was obviously updated to a newer version, if you want to use USPL I advise updating to an official 1.54+ ROM and then flash to a custom ROM.
I'd say you're right... I wanted to use USPL primarily for warranty purposes but I'm not sure what the implications are for flashing a later official SPL with the Telstra THD anyway so I figured I'd just bite the bullet and use HSPL (and hope that if I need warranty I can still access the bootloader to revert to stock!!)
Any Oz Telstra users out there who know if using a stock SPL other than Telstra can void warranty?

ive got a telstra HD, u cannot use the original SPL on new roms whether they are wm6.1 or wm6.5. this will give you the green screen issue and no reception (ie your radio is disabled)
flashing a newer SPL will void your warranty as there isnt one available from telstra. flashing HSPL will also void it. double edged sword really.
Crackwhores guide to flashing 1.56+ roms is a sticky at the top of this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
Any different SPL or ROM will be used as an excuse to void your warranty. If there was an issue I'm sure you could fight it in a court, but at the end of the day it would be many times cheaper to pay for repairs or get a new phone if they wouldn't fix it under warranty.

Bugger... but you're 100% certain on this?
I really want to get a WM6.5 Rom on my TP2 however I want to make sure I'm able to send my device back to Vodafone if i need to make a warranty call. The problem is I can't find a Stock UK Vodafone Rom or SPL anywhere (Rom Version 1.14.161.5 (50207) WEE, Radio Version 3.44.25.27).
In actual fact I could get away without the Rom, but I really need the SPL!
Can anybody help?
The stock SPL is 0.79 see the Hard SPL thread for the re-locker.
The Stock ROM is on Vodafones website and the sticky post by udk.

can anyone give me a step by step on how to flash my ROM back to STOCK?
if you want it for warranty reasons then you will need to flash the SPL also to stock. you can just download the latest ROM from HTC website and flash it. it will give you the stock ROM on the existing SPL.
End of the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2710548&postcount=1.
Remember you will also need to go back to stock spl if for warranty purposes.

I've kinda got thesame question. I flashed a stock rom (latest EU rom from HTC site), then stock SPL (1.14) and then the stock rom again. Is this enough to be able to claim warranty without HTC finding out about custom roms/boatloaders?
Thanks

That depends. What was your original rom and spl? Are you entitled (via location) to use the new EU rom, eg if you live in America then this may not be acceptable to HTC.
When you boot up the new rom, are the screen colours ok as this will tell you if you have the right spl for your rom? If you have the latest EU rom, I doubt that 1.14 spl would be the right one, but it could be I guess. With the stock rom, you should also get the stock radio. So provided you have the stock rom available to your area, with the correct matching spl and the radio, there is no way to tell of your exploits
Thanks for your reply
The problem is that the screen of my device won't turn on anymore (Device powers on, I can connect with activesync, digitizer works fine) so i have no way of checking if I have the right SPL or not...
I also have no idea what my stock rom/spl/radio version was.. I live in the Netherlands, and through the official HTC site i flashed the latest rom, which included a radio (a radio version was part of the filename). What I'm trying to find out is:
Could 1.14 have been my stock SPL, or was that version never used on any Dutch Blackstone?
If the spl doesn't match the rom (wrong colours) that isn't much of a problem; I can tell them I tried to update my rom because I thought maybe my screen would work again after I installed the latest ROM... But if I have a SPL that was never even used I don't think they will buy that
According to the wiki there are 2 Dutch roms - one would require a 1.14.0000 spl and the other a 1.54.0000 spl. So I guess either of those would do.
When you flashed the rom from the website, where you still using hspl or uspl? Depending on the rom you flashed you will need to flash the matching spl. Do you have the full notation/naming of the rom you flashed. This should give an indication of which spl you will need.
As much as I appreciate ClydeB1 for assisting you, I fail to see a reason for this thread. A thread already exists for flashing advice, i.e. the dummies guide. Also the HardSPL thread exists and has advice on how to flash back to stock. So depending on your query post in either of these.
The initial query and reason this thread was created has been answered, so no need for this thread to remain open. Thread closed
Hi, I'm due to return my Touch HD back to Orange for a swap for a replacement handset, but I would like to make sure I return it back with the original Stock ROM and SPL.
If I switch on my phone with the vol key pressed, it shows that I have:
SPL-1.56.OliNex
And I am currently using the latest MaryOne ROM.
I have downloaded: RUU_BlackStone_Orange_UK_1.14.405.3_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship which I believe was the original Stock ROM for my phone. It appears that this ROM is the older 1.14 version.
Before flashing my device with this ROM, do I need to downgrade my SPL first? Or is there a way to make the phone use the Stock SPL? (The reason I ask this is because I remember reading the "dummies guide" and it said that in order to use the newer 1.56+ ROM's I had to upgrade the SPL, so my guess is I may need to downgrade now to install a 1.14 ROM?)
Could anyone clarify for me?
Thanks,
WizzKidd

You are correct, if you are using a rom based on 1.14 you need to match the SPL or you'll get screen issues etc. You can either use HSPL 1.14 or return stock 1.14 SPL. All info can be found in this thread including how to return to stock rom & SPL (bottom of first post - section called 'How to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!')

Hi there,
I want to recover my device to the stock SPL. I have tried to download the stock ROM from the HTC site but it says "Sorry this software is not suitable for the device." Is every WWE ROM the same? If so can I use a WWE ROM from any region?
Thanks
Hey,
What is your device model? It should look like "DIAM100", a 7 letter code. You can see it by removing the battery and looking somewhere near the type.
If you have a DIAM110, then you're pretty much screwed as HTC provides no ROMs for them. You might be able to find the original ROM somewhere here, but I'd be careful or you might end up like me - during the restore of my original ROM I got a "corrupted" error and am now stuck in a stalemate.
If you have warranty though, I would look for your original SPL (hopefully you recorded the version). For DIAM110 it was 1.93. Just make sure you DO NOT restore the SPL until everything else works well. If you screw up your OS and you have the stock SPL installed then you're stuck.
~codeslicer
My one is a DIAM100 and I'm running Olinex 1.40 unsigned with SatusROM 2.6. My original SPL is 1.93.
That is strange. So you went to the HTC Worldwide website and chose Touch Diamond? It should work... anyways I've seen a Hong Kong stock ROM here somewhere. But you can try checking here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Diamond_Upgrades. If you need to return it for warranty though, you need to find the original SPL (hopefully you remember version). To install SPL, you need to use Jump SPL (on this site).
