help with hd7

hello i am trying to install a custom rom on my hd7. my hd7 had a bootloader version 5.12 so i did

step 6 a. for those with a Pre-Mango Zune Backup,

- see Zubair Kirmani's thread, here.

that got my boot loader to version 4.5.2250.0(129966) i trying to downgrade to 3.xx or lower but i can't

i downloaded task 00 and TMOUS	3.01.531.02 5.65.09.25a_22.45.50.21U NODO to try and downgrade

but every time i run task 00 i get ERROR 262 everytime i downloaded other versions of the radios but i get error 262.

first i connected the phone without installing windows mobile device, and it installs drivers and prompts me to download zune software which i dont download at all.

i did download windows mobile device and it installed, it tries to install some kind of driver but then it says it could not install driver because device was disconnected but i have it all the time connected to the computer. windows mobile device does not see the device.

in the tri color screen i see that it turns from serial to usb

any help is much appreciated.
[HD7 General] xdrc45:
Hi...

Error 262 is an update error. Your getting that because your using Task 00 to try and flash the rom to your device. Task 00 is for flashing Radios.

You need to either use the Rom Update Utility (RUU) that came with the stock 3.01 rom or use Task 29 to flash it to your device.
[HD7 General] spliter200:
thanks

what i was doing wrong was that i was not getting the SPL_signed but it worked. dumb mistake sorry. i was able to get custom rom on my hd7 thanks. wish there was android for hd7,

Would something like that work, hook my phone cable to it and my USB stick??

Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
would be a hit and miss. some USB Hubs work, some don't.

wouldn't hurt to try, if it doesn't work, just return it.

Hi

I recently got a HTC HD7 but it has a very old OS version as I can see.I came from the old Nokia OS Symbian, and it's very new for me Microsoft's OS.

Please, can you or another guru in this materia help me to flash my new phone with the last version of WP for my phone (I guess WP 7.8) and also get spanish languaje ?

My OS characteristics are:

Model: HTC HD7

OS version: 7.0.7008.0

Firmware revision number: 2250.09.12001.531

Radio software version: 5.51.09.11a_22.31.50.09U

Radio hard version: A.12.0.D4

Bootloader version: 1.20.2250.0(111584)

Chip SOC version: 2.2.5.0

What I need is the simple steps I must to do for flash my phone, and only one link to the tools I need. And of course, only one Rom recomended (with spanish languaje).

If you help me I'll be very grateful and every day i'll enter in this web and press the thanks button for you.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
just RSPL then HSPL.

follow the steps in Post #1.
[HD7 General] emfelpeto:
Can you please explain me what is RSPL and HSPL and wich especific ROM to use?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
RSPL is a temporarily unlocked Bootloader

HSPL is a permanently unlocked Bootloader

TMOUS
[HD7 General] emfelpeto:
Thanks. I saw the TMOUS roms that you recommended for my phone.

It has spanish language, no?

I'm seeing 6 TMOUS roms in link you posted (http://xdaforums.com/wiki/HTC_HD7/Shipped_Roms). Wish exactly you recomend to me?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
NoDo TMOUS.

yes, Spanish is included in each TMOUS ROM.
[HD7 General] emfelpeto:
Wich of those 6 TMOUS Roms you recomend for me?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
sorry, figured you would know from TMOUS NoDo.

TMOUS 3.01
[HD7 General] emfelpeto:
Thanks a lot man. But I saw that TMOUS 3.01 is 7.0.7 OS version, and I wish the last version on my HD7, so, Can I use TMOUS 4.05 to get the 7.10 OS version ??
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
well, depends...

what are you trying to do?

going the Custom ROM route or stock?
[HD7 General] emfelpeto:
Well, I'm going to be simple:

I have a HD7 Windows Phone, and I want the last OS version (some people said is WP 7.5 so far, so, 7.10 OS version I think) running in my phone.

I want spanish language. I don't care if the Rom is route or stock because I don't care about soport or garanty because there isn't in my country this kind of services.

Also I wish to install any application.

With your process I think I could make it, no?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
go the Custom ROM route to be up-to-date. flash RSPL, flash HSPL, flash a Custom ROM for HTC Schubert.
[HD7 General] emfelpeto:
Can you please tell me the link to download a Custom ROM for HTC Schubert ??
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
check out the WP7 Development sub-forum of HD7 forum. you can find a variety of Custom ROMs available. of those available, I have used Dynamics7 and intrinsic. the latter which I cooked myself.

[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
you have a Half Bricked Mondrian.

three possible ways to fix it.

quickest way would be to use Goldcard. there are many tutorials out there for this.

update HTC Firmware via Zune

a. updating, as is, will take you to OSPL 5.xx, which requires Goldcard to XSPL

b. restore, if you have one, to 1.xx Backup and update to OSPL 4.xx to XSPL

[HD7 General] xdrc45:
Unfortunately the device has a small/semi brick.

If you can get into "USB host mode" then you can flash the device via the goldcard method and usually that will fix it.

Just follow the goldcard tutorial here -

hi,

I have my backup file from NODO. Can I just use zune to restore that file? will this be working? I have the version 5.x.x.x

that cable thing looks quite complicated.

thanks for your help
[HD7 General] xdrc45:
Hi,

Yes you can. You have to restore your device through Zune with the restore option. That won't downgrade your SPL though, so what you have to do is re-update the device through Zune again and back to Mango. The key point is that when you update back to Mango the device will reboot twice, once to downgrade the SPL to 4.xxx and once again to actually install Mango... You have to stop the update process and and unplug your device after Mango is installed and before it installs the next update which is the HTC Firmware update, if you install the HTC FW update the SPL will be upgraded back to 5.xxx.

There's a Zune 5.xxx downgrade tutorial here -

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1362194

Once the devices SPL is downgraded to 4.xxx just finish following Shadow's tutorial to downgrade the SPL from 4.xxx to at or below 3.xxx by flashing a Pre-NoDo/NoDo rom and then you can install XSPL (RSPL/HSPL) and then flash a custom rom of your choice.

Hi i have a error :(

Hi thanks first for the tuto... i have a problem when i tried to use the tool oo the % never gets started just stay in 0 an get an error 262... i did the steps just right it says... what can i do? i have a 4.5 bootloader and cant install any rom just have the factory rom on my phone :crying:
[HD7 General] xdrc45:
Hi,

Error 262 is a connection error.

First make sure you have ActiveSync installed on your PC if it's windows XP or windows mobile device center installed if you have a vista/windows7 PC. Theses will allow for the proper drivers to be installed on the PC.

Connect the device to the PC with USB cable and allow any drivers to install. Then put the device into bootloader mode and connect to the PC and allow the Qualcomm drivers to install. Then try flashing the rom again.

once Bootloader is exited, RSPL reverts back to OSPL, unless you HSPL after RSPL'ing.

I just downloaded the rom and I found out that it only has RUU_signed.nbh and there is program with it called AdvancedRUU-1.0.3 (Task 28).

Should I use this program to Flash my device?

Does it undo my HSPL ?

i am stuck at "Loading" in usb mode

made the custom usb wire

created a gold card

memory card is sony 2 gb

any ideas to help?:confused:
[HD7 General] xdrc45:
If your stuck at "Loading" that usually means the device started to read the .nbh file but then failed.

Try a different SD card reader. This is typically the most common problem.

Try switching around the Y cable connections between the device and SD card reader.

Make sure that when you renamed the .nbh file that your renamed it SCHUIMG.nbh (has to be capitalized)

Make sure the camera button isn't stuck in. Sometimes the camera button on the HD7 will get stuck/pushed in when entering USB host mode.

Also when the device hang on "Loading" or "Enter USB host mode..." you have to reset the device to get an active connection with the SD card reader again. Just disconnect the device from the Y cable and pull the battery and reinstall, and then re-enter into USB host mode and try the flash process again.

Let me know if these help!

[HD7 General] xdrc45:
The SLSPL rom is for Europe devices .401, yours is .206 O2 UK.

You will have to use the goldcard method or the Zune restore point method to downgrade your SPL to at or below 3.xxx to install XSPL and then flash a custom rom of your choice.

Hi,

Having same situation like you (or others ):

i turn my phone on,press Volume Down,is going in SPL / tricolour screen BUT no serial or usb mode written at the bottom,on the white section !!!

Is the phone doomed,bricked !?

Any ideea how can i ... fix it !?

Thanks in advance...
[HD7 General] xdrc45:
Yes, unfortunately your device is semi/small bricked.

You can repair the device by flashing a stock/shipped device specific rom with the goldcard method and this will repair the bootloader.

now struggling in install different rom

any ideas?

i guess i am the only one who's using hd7 these days :rolleyes:
[HD7 General] xdrc45:
@natheer1981,

Inside the rom file is a ruuwrapper (Rom Update Utility wrapper)

Try using the ruuwrapper that came with the rom, instead of Task 29 to flash the rom.

Also just to make sure you did install XSPL? (RSPL and HSPL)
[HD7 General] natheer1981:
this is the bootloader screen after XSPL

i downloaded the nextgen rom tried the wrapper within

when i run the wrapper it was loading for about 2-3 minutes

then it said something is wrong start the recovery!
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
that Bootloader screenshot is of OSPL 1.70, and not of RSPL or HSPL.

XSPL is required in order to flash a Custom ROM or an unsigned Radio.
[HD7 General] natheer1981:
hi

it was not the xspl

i did a mistake by using a different wrapper

its all ok with new custom rom

[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:

[HD7 General] kirk999:
so. as I understand for flashing RSPL / HSPL first what i need is to downgrade my SPL v.5.0

you wrote to use your method. ok

but as i wrote in the previous post my phone should be bricked after downgrading SPL using your method. and it confirms here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1195647

am i right?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
incorrect.

the brick would only occur if you tried flashing XSPL onto your device while you have a 4.x or 5.x SPL.

quote pulled from XSPL thread, post 4.

basically, Cotulla says what I have instructed...

flash SPL_Signed.nbh from the stock Shipped NoDo or Pre-NoDo ROM specific to your device.

this will downgrade your SPL.

sh4d0w86.
[HD7 General] kirk999:
now i understand

thanks
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
you're welcome.

glad i was able to help.

sh4d0w86.
[HD7 General] kirk999:
last question

using your method i can only downgrade my SPL from v.5.01 to 1.xxx

then i can flash custom older version (7008 or 7392)

then i can run RSPL

but would it be possible to flash Mango custom rom after all?????:confused:
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
downgrade your SPL with stock Shipped ROM for your device. 1.x is fine.

flash RSPL. then HSPL (if desired). replaces your downgraded 1.x OSPL.

flash Custom ROM. or any Spark Shipped ROM. will replace R/HSPL.

flash Radio. not from a RUU or SPL _Signed.nbh though.

that what you are asking?

sh4d0w86.

OK, so ive been trying to do this for the last 3 days. heres my problems.

ive gotten it down to spl 2.xxx.xxx and i g to try the rspl tool and it never works. it says my model isnt supported but its on the supported list.

next i made sure i had everything they said like wmdc. (i actually installed windows 7 on my computer from windows 8 because win8 cant run wmdc) then installed zune software. but then i plug in my phone zune detects it but not wmdc and when i try to run the rspl tool its the same error.

so then i found out wmdc doesnt support HTC HD7 so i found something called Windows phone mobile center here that is suppose to be an alternative to wmdc. after installing it i plugged in my phone and the program said my device was plugged in, but not connected. when i clicked on connect the program said i needed my phone registered or unlocked. but how am i suppose to unlock the phone if i cant yet install roms. can someone run me through exactly how they did this with their HTC HD7 T9295 my bootloader says 2.16.2250.0(117476)
[HD7 General] xdrc45:
@Gooiesc,

Sounds like you got it about right...

WMDC is really only used because it contains the proper drivers to sync the device with the PC.

Here's a couple things for you to try -

1. Put the device into bootloader mode and connect it to the PC. Allow WMDC to install the Qualcomm drivers. This allows the PC to communicate with the device while in bootloader mode.(to flash RSPL/HSPL and custom roms) Once the drivers are installed try running the XSPL wizard again.

2. Download DFT's most current version of XSPL = Revision #3. It supports more HD7 models.

http://htcfanboys.com/download/cotulla/?action=view&file=2942

I believe the WPMC is you actually have to register and then developer unlock the device.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
sorry, forgot to reply. :(

only way, that I know of, is from the Firmware revision number, but it also must be the Firmware from the stock ROM.
