questions: noob and noobest

Hi shadow, i have an Htc schubert with OS 7720 100% virgin(never have tampered with it, only updated through zune) and spl 4.5, and i want to put the intrinsic 5 rom which i find a very great rom btw. I know i can follow the tut from step 8 on, and then i can have my phone with this cool custom rom, but i have 3 questions:

1: if i make a restore point with zune of my actual phone (which im doing as i write this) can i revert back to it later ?

2: if so, how? since in the first post says how to flash roms, stock or custom but idk if is the same procedure or what procedure at all when having a custom rom and trying to revert to a zune stock backup (not shure if this should be even posted here)

and 3: where is the thanks button? this is my first post on the whole site and i cant find it....:p

anyway i pay the most respect to shadow and all others who have patiently helped us noobs all the time in this forum

edit: nevermind question 3... now that i've posted my first post i can see the thanks button, seems i wasnt that noobish after all XD
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
as far as i know, yes, you can revert back to the back-up via Zune -> Settings -> Update -> Restore

i haven't ever backed up or updated my device before, so don't know from personal experience.

thanks, for the intrinsicROM support. :D

please, leave any feedback you may have in the thread.

Hi again, i successfully flashed my phone and everything went well. Process was as follows:

Downloading task 00 & task 29: ~ 1 min

Downgrading ospl: ~1min

Applying rspl: ~1min

Appliying hspl: ~1 min

Downloading Intrinsic 5 rom : ~ 10 min (5mbps internet)

Flashing rom: ~4min

Setting up ( accounts, connections, language) ~5min

Putting back data ( > 5 gb worth of music, apps, photos and videos) 20min

Setting up installed apps: ~ 5min

Office docs and contacts: already in the cloud and automatically synced

i had my phone up and running with all my stuff i had before in less than an hour, i just followed the steps to the letter.

Imho: Noobproof Tut.

Thanks again shadow, and just one last thing... The only thing that didn't go as expected was the xda app... I had to write this from the phone's IE cause it keeps crashing... Didn't have it installed before on my stock rom so idk if is app or rom related but everything else is fine... No issues so far.

Afternoon fellas, well my problem is simple I guess but it may get complicated. When I boot into the multicolored screen, in the white area it DOES NOT say "serial", in the upper band it does say "PD29110 SS-BC (4K)" which as far as I have read lets me know I have a TMobile version phone but I guess since it doesn't say Serial that something isn't right. So when I run the 00 task it simply lets me know it doesn't detect the USB connection to my phone. I have tried it on two laptops, an x86 and x64 unit, both with same results...

Thanks ahead of time for any suggestions guys
[HD7 General] 5ft24:
is there anything in the middle band?

if so, your phone is "half bricked". if not, you are fully bricked in the bootloader and can use the phone, but not load anything.
[HD7 General] cdzo72:
Thanks for the quick response 5ft24, I have been googling all day and finally found the information to tell me that my phone is apparently half-bricked. As of yet I haven't found a definite solution. I did see one but the English was so bad it couldn't be understood and when the guy was asked to provide a detailed guide he never answered, so I have to ask, is there a solution for my device to get the bootloader back?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
try Step 08 if you haven't already done so...

else, jtag will fix the Bootloader.

is dsa handy überhaupt noch zu retten?

I try in english but my english is not the best :D

Hello, my hd7 doesnt turn on anyway, if i turn it on, a green htc sign appears and after 10 seconds a black screen with a phone and a computer (i think it means i should connect my hd7 with my pc), i dont can boot in bootloader, hardreset doesnt work too. i never flashed my hd 7, on day i want turn on my hd7 and then this happend. what can i do??

Can I use this method?

PD67100 SS-BC (4K)

[HD7 General] compass1982:
Hi sh4d0w86,

My HD7 device (bought in Malaysia) details:

OS version: 7.0.7008.0

Firmware revision number: 2250.09.15702.707

Radio software version: 5.71.09.029_22.51.50.21u

Radio hardware: A.102.0.04

Bootloader: 5.10.2250.0 (132968)

If i uses Zubair Kirmani's way to downgrade the SPL to 4.xx. The OS is still Mango at this moment right? Do I need to downgrade to NoDo after SPL changed to 4.xx and before I proceed to install RSPL?

thanks a lot~!
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
sounds like you are stuck in Zune update mode. you say you can't boot into the Bootloader at all? hmm. have you tried removing the microSD card?

if your Mozart is EU unbranded, you can use ansar's SLSPL, here. else, you can downgrade with NoDo back-up through Zune if you have it. or try this here.

using Zubair's way, you'll be downgrading OS, Radio, and SPL. once Bootloader 4.xx, you'll need to downgrade to Bootloader 3.xx or 2.xx or 1.xx. then after that, you may XSPL.
[HD7 General] compass1982:
Hi sh4d0w86,

I still don't quite get it. According to Zubair's way, the phone need to be updated to 7720 in order to get the SPL downgraded to 4.xx. And the XSPL guide stated that "Do NOT use RSPL / HSPL with Mozart 4.XX and other RUU ROMS with MANGO.". Is it meaning that I still have to downgrade to NoDo before I perform XSPL? Or downgrading the Radio as per step #09 will actually safe for me to proceed to perform XSPL? Btw, is my currently OS a NoDo? Because I could not find the similiar OS version in the shipped

ROM wiki page. I apologize for being asking a lot, because I am 1st time encounter to WP. thanks~!
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
when you restore your device with the NoDo back-up from Zune...

you will have OS versions 7.0.73xx.0 aka NoDo.

then, Zune will notify you, your device has updates available.

the update is to Mango do the update to 7.10.7720.68 and stop.

you're Bootloader version should now be 4.xx.

now you can follow the tutorial i wrote to downgrade from 4.xx.
[HD7 General] compass1982:
okee....thanks for your patience and clear guideline. i will try it out when i get back to home.... :)

---------- Post added at 07:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 AM ----------

Sorry for bothering again, step #09 stated that I have to download the Radio that specific for my device. Is it meaning that I have to look for the Radio which the rom

is same as my device after downgraded to 4.xx?

Another thing, I just downloaded Deepshining rom v6.1 and found that the .nbh inside the package is a RUU_signed.nbh. Will this .nbh replace the XSPL to OPSL?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
Radio specific to your device would be Asia WWE. choice either of the pre-NoDo Radios and flash the SPL_Signed.nbh, which is located in the stock folder. that will downgrade your Bootloader to 1.xx, then you can XSPL.

all this, and i am helping the 'enemy.' *sigh*

DeepShining's RUU_Signed.nbh isn't actually signed. it is actually RUU_Unsigned.nbh. it doesn't include an SPL.nb, so XSPL will stay intact.
[HD7 General] compass1982:
Chill friend. I really appreciate your help on helping me to understand more about SPL. I am totally new to WP and this rom was recommended by my friend. I apologize if I offended you in anyway...... Please don't mad at me, I really hope to learn more from you. Frankly speaking, you are very knowledgeable.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
not mad at all. hadn't meant to sound that way, either.

in fact, dot and i help each other on our roms.

hope that solution helps, though, nonetheless. happy flashing. :)
[HD7 General] compass1982:

is it possible for you to upload the intrinsicROM at another host? seems like my country has blocked megaupload..... :S

Any1 got clue why I can't enter bootloader?

Holding volume - and pressing power equals normal start.

I flashed deepshining 6.1v like 3 weeks ago and since then I didnt need to enter bootloader.

does the volume - button work normally when it's booted?

i am using an asian HD7 with asian WWE ROM, and the bootloader is 5.10.xxxxx

i tried to restore my HD7 to post NODO but it looked like it hanged so i stoped...

i hope some one or Ansar comes up with an asian rom downgrade for HD7...
[HD7 General] attrib:
I also use the Asian rom for my HD7, and it does not succeeding jailbreak.

Since I am a beginner, I would ask you for help. Which program do it, because when I download a rom it tells me that USB is not connected... :confused:

Here's a picture attached,

Here's the situation like this:

With a program called GoldCardHelper when you insert the card into the reader of the laptop, I see the CID and GoldCardTool_0.0.7 can not see the CID number.

- I got a USB card reader, on or in one program does not see the CID.

I even used the GoldCardTool_0.0.5 but again the same thing, this version 0.0.5 is just no possibility of formatting ...

I used a Nokia, and as an external device, means a card reader, yet can not see the CID. :confused:

Do you have another solution?

Sorry for my bad english...

[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
attrib's y cable looks overly complicated...

you should be able to use a cable like this here which would connect to a card reader like this here then splice in a microUSB cable, which connects to you device, into the card reader cable.

make sense? i haven't actually ever done, though...
[HD7 General] attrib:
Cable can make a relatively easy, just watching the scheme and it will all clear.

It would be good to have a USB cable to get the various devices that do not use them.

My cable looks very complicated, because I used a cable that you normally use, so that they do not destroy. This was done only at the speed I do.

Card reader who was in the picture, I did work with him because I had a flash light to indicate that I see, if it works at all.

thanx
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
try flashing the pre-Mango Shipped ROM for your device. see if that fixes your Bootloader.

if it doesn't, you might try Step #7a or Goldcard method.

if that fails, you'll most likely need jtag to fix your Bootloader.

if you have a back-up of NoDo or Pre-NoDo, see Step #6b.

else you will need either jtag or y cable to downgrade.

see Step #7a, to downgrade with a y-cable. (also, shows how to make a y-cable)

or see Step #7b, for jtag.

Step #7a is basically the goldcard method, just without the goldcard.

i suggest #7a, over attempting #7b. the instructions are hard to understand.

[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
if your Bootloader reads the what you wrote above, then you successfully unlocked your Bootloader and can now flash Custom ROMs & Radios.

which links? Rapidshare has been weird, lately. might move all Radios to another site.

talking about TMO US Radio or the Shipped ROM? either way, yes, to both as long as your Bootloader is unlocked at flashing. i.e. i am using the TMO US HD7 on AT&T Wireless with Europe Radio. :p
