If you can go into bootloader screen (the four color screen), you still can uninstall HSPL. First off, turn off your phone. Then, press the volume down button AND the power on button, AT THE SAME TIME, until the four color screen appear (bootloader screen).

Now, connect your device to your PC, and wait until the text "Serial" change to "USB" (you should see it at the white color part)

Now, run HSPL 4 from your PC. Dont forget to turn off Anti Virus, Firewall, Internet Connection, Screen saver and your battery must be at least 50%. And if you are on Vista or win 7, run as an Administrator. If for some reason, Serial doesnt change to USB, you unplug it and try different USB port (try the rear USB port)

Now, you can choose which HSPL you want to remove.

Alternatively, you can erase HSPL using Micro SD Method.
Download your CORRECT STOCK ROM. Extract it, and find the fie named : RUU_signed.nbh . Rename it to : leoimg.nbh. Copy this file to the root of your SD Card. Before copy it, it is advisable to format the sd card using card reader and dont put other files except leoimg.nbh file.

Now go into bootloader screen as mentioned earlier. And follow the instruction screen.

Done.

Goodluck
