no my phone is not a branded one, ie no tmob etc. so which firmware i should use, as i am from india, can i use generic asia? or any unbranded one as long as it contains eng lang?, coz i use english only and dont need any other languages.

but still i have doubt.

what is the use of a gold card( i downgraded my hboot of wildfire using gold card, so i dont mean use of gold card, but how do it work in flashing htc hd7) , also do i need it to flash any ruu or custom rom?

you said, as reply for my 6th question,

'you need the chevron unlock to sidload apps (only possible on 7004 & 7008)'

so what do u mean by 7004 and 7008? is it updates or some thing else? i know there are 7720 mango for hd7 flying around, so is it official or a leaked one? does chevron work in it? or can i hack it by any method, so that i can slidload more than 10 app?

and what is the latest custom rom with no sidload limit? can i get a 7720 mango custom rom?

can i get the drivers only? i dont want the whole zune and active sinc
[HD7 General] sandman01:
you do not need to flash anything!

Install Zune and update your OS via it to NoDo version.

If you want to unlock you phone (jailbreak, not simunlock) than you have to use the chevron unlock process bevor you update via zune

your phone haf to be un os version 7.0.7004 or at least 7.0.7008 with newer os Versions you can not use chevron anymore.

as I think you have a normal european HD7:

Firmware revision number:2250.09.16001.401

so if you want to flash you have to look for original European roms

if you want to flash other roms (other regions or costum roms) you can use xspl or goldcard

xspl is a new hacked bootloader wich has the ability to flash every HD7 rom you like.

goldcard is a methode which could bypass the CID/MID check like xspl does but you need aditional components for that (y-cable, goldcard,...)

you are right when we talk about versions or build numbers, we take about the os version 7.x.xxxx

WP7 start with build 7004

Nodo have build 7390

Mango RTM has build 7720 not official available via zune

conclusion:

if you want to sidload apps you have to unlock you phone as long as it runs on 7004 or 7008

ansar post a guidline how to update without loosing the chevron unlock see here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1101344

for getting mango RTM on the phone read this thread, it's tricky but possible.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1149265

but beware if you do not combine it with the guidline from ansar, you will loose your chevron unlock (dev-unlock)

If you are not afraid of flashing roms, start with xspl (simplest methode)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1195647

than flash ansars costum 1.69 rom (unlocked NoDo rom)

http://rapidshare.com/files/1043958...4.09.21_22.33b.50.10_NoDo_custom_by_ansar.zip

and than start to update to the unofficial Mango RTM like the guidlines above.

I don't know if you can extract the drivers from Windows Mobile Device Center, but Zune is necessarry for updating.
[HD7 General] showlyshah:
Oh no, once again I got stuck, all things I have installed in my win7 ultimate lap, such as zune 4.8,wmdc etc, and I am able to hspl my device, and in normal mode my lap detects it as a win7 mobile, but still zune can't detect it.

Is there details I need off the phone such as the original radio version and Super CID number if I want to return it to back to S-ON and RMA to HTC?

Hi

A few things worth making a note of are your current ROM and radio numbers.

Try to find an equivalent original Ruu ROM to the one you have now. Check the numbers in Settings> About Phone> Software.

Go to this thread :

[HTC EVO 3D] HackDPlanet:
Have not accepted any of the OTA updates. I noticed that my weather lockscreen is showing no data. Any ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
There really shouldn't be any complex issues with this widget. It has been around for quite a while on many HTC android devices.

I've experienced this issue on my CDMA EVO 3D when there is no signal or intermittent signal, the weather lockscreen will be blank, i.e. no weather. Once I have signal, the easiest fix I've found for this issue is to open up the weather widget and manually force a refresh. After the manually forced refresh, I'm usually in a signal area again and it will start to properly auto refresh.

The only other solution which comes to mind is wiping the widget's stored data directory in the /data partition, forcing the widget to start fresh. This process should clear any random issues occuring with the widget as perhaps a data file or files have become corrupt. But this doesn't seem to happen very often ... or we're all flash a holics and wipe our data too often to notice!

Does the weather widget itself and lockscreen update after forcing a refresh?

Hope that helps!
[HTC Sensation] illthrill:
I've been waiting for the longest time for the safest and best way to root my Sensation I've had since the day one when it was released. I know of the Revolutionary method to obtain my beta key and I've also been debating whether I should use the HTCDev unlock then root method.

My main question is, what are some known issues of using this beta method/dev preview with revolutionary. I know someone told about the recovery not working properly and if your battery dies you need to charge it externally...? Is this true?
[HTC Sensation] sniperkill:
With revolutionary, you get a fully unlocked bootloader. With HTC's method, your bootloader is only partially unlocked. You can flash Roms, kernels, radios, Wimax, boot animations, splash screens, and more using revolutionary method, and with HTC, method you can only flash Roms, and I THINK stock kernels. Use revolutionary, no question, AND you keep your warranty.
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
The charging problem is with CWM recovery, not Revolutionary. You would need CWM with HTC method anyway

Swyped from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] illthrill:
Well I always have been leaning to Revolutionary...so I'll just go that route, but what are some beta issues and has there been any set expectations of what the final build will improve upon? Is the CWM recovery still buggy?
[HTC Sensation] old_god:
I may be out of my element, but this thread (gplus post) has the latest CWM version and by looking at feedback it sounds like the battery issue has been mostly fixed.

It was worth a try, although for the life of me I can't figure what would be different between the two, except screen size?!? :confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] ve6rah:
The version of 3.2 for the A500 is not the same as the version of 3.2 for A100 (the A100 has had 3.2 a lot longer) I suspect in the mean time Acer patched it before releasing the A500 version.

So far there is no way to root 3.2, and more annoyingly, there is also no way to downgrade to 3.1 to get root back (trying to flash a 3.1 update.zip on the 3.2 tablet leaves the tablet unbootable)

for now we're stuck on unrooted 3.2 until one of the devs sweeps in and saves us!
[Acer Iconia A500] pacificwing:
Do you suppose this is a realistic expectation? I understood that once they decide to lock the boot-loader that root becomes next to impossible.

But then, admittedly, I know very little.

I am a little pissed off about the fact that I stupidly accepted the upload without checking this first. Now I can't use wifi tether (no adhoc), making the tablet almost useless for my needs.

Oh well,

Cheers,

There are many devices with locked bootloaders that have been rooted (my phone, a motorola milestone, is one of them)

couple of things...

first, it's not necessarily true that it needs replaced. if you take it to a service&repair store like mine, we would (normally) try to replace part of the antenna first, which is part of the speaker assemble. an easy fix if that's where the issue lies.

second, while all of those phone are on the WEL (warranty exchange list), it's only if they didnt have epics in stock. which they probably do.
