Anyone else running soab having issues with android process acore force closing every time you try to open your contacts? I have tried fixing permissions.... Still happens..

I still havent got an answer to how to get rid of where it says son of a bliss on the notifications pulldown...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satseaker:
because you are slapping them in the face with your request,if you dislike it that much why not just flash a different rom,or learn how to use the kitchen!

brought to you with limited commercial interuptions
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigandrewgold:
god.

For 1, I am not trying to slap them in the face, just the orange text in cursive font goes with nothing on the rom, If it actually matched everything else I would be fine with it there.

And 2, I know how to use kitchen, But I have no clue what the Color and transparency of it is.

3. Please show me another 3.5 rom
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grnlantern79:
4. People like you define the phrase cry baby.

5. Change the skin on the Rom and words will go away. No more crying now.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] aGoGo:
I'm just wondering if there a way to revert to the stock Middle East ROM or use a ROM that supports Arabic.

Im using the new baseband and tried almost all ROMs available but non of them supported Arabic and RTL alignment.

mik_os' CyanogenMod 7 ROM was fine but I'm using a new baseband and I dunno if I can revert to stock now.

Any idea if it's possible to add Arabic to an existing ROM? or revert to the stock Middle East ROM? or revert to old baseband?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sahem:
Go back to the old baseband, there is no gingerbread stock Rom with Arabic support
[Optimus One, P500, V General] aGoGo:
Just downgraded the baseband and installed mik_os' CyanogenMod 7.

works like a charm :)
[HD7 General] iKarido:
thanks alot man this really helped me out!

I just got my phone and it has these:

OS: 7.0.7392.0

Radio software: 5.65.09.25a_22.45.50.21U

Bootloader: 3.1.2250.0

(btw its from T-mobile)

So I should be following the instructions to install RSPL and It lookss easy.

but what about my OS? can I leave the OS as it is and install one of these custom roms:

DFT's Freedom.

dotcompt's DeepShining.

itje's Touch-It.

Or do I need to update to Stock mango first?

Finally, what are radios for and should I flash a new one? if so what should I flash.

sorry about all these questions but its my first time having a WP and I dont want it to break from day one :D
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
you should click the Thanks button, instead of thanking me in a post. : )

and you are welcome. glad i can help.

yep, with Bootloader version 3.1 start with RSPL.

when you flash a Custom ROM, it will be replace your current OS and Radio, if included with Custom ROM.

Radios give you your signal... so, a different Radio could help give you a strong signal in places.
[HD7 General] iKarido:
everything went great.

using touch it rom now (:
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
glad to hear the tutorial helped and that you are running a Custom ROM.

[HD7 General] ak47kalam:
I have a silly question, would flashing a different Rom or radio sim unlock my device? My phone is locked to o2 uk

unfortunately, no.

[HD7 General] 1milenia:
i tried task 29

and it says the update utility can not open the requested file

check your update utility

my phone is a tmobile hd7

my pc is vista zune recognises my phone though
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
what are you trying to do?

what file are you trying to use?

have you tried redownloading task 29 or the file in question?

sh4d0w86.
[HD7 General] 1milenia:
i want downgrade the mango 7720 to nodo

so i can rspl/hspl then download a rom

my problem is i downloaded your task 29 unzipped and ran it pluged in my hd7 and went through the utility and at the end it said

and it says the update utility can not open the requested file

check your update utility
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
i never uploaded anything. just provided links to the original source threads.

what did you download to downgrade your SPL?

sh4d0w86.
[HD7 General] 1milenia:
im sorry flash....im basically trying to get an spl of 1x or 2x or 3xxxxx

my spl is 4.5 so i have to downgrade

but im haveing problem with task29
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
use task 00 to flash SPL_Signed.nbh.

sh4d0w86.
[HD7 General] KayxGee1:
What's the difference between RSPL and HSPL?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
RSPL is a temporary SPL, which allows the install of an Unsigned.nbh, then returns to OSPL afterwards. aka after a reset.

HSPL is a permanent SPL, which allows the install of an Unsigned.nbh, but doesn't change to OSPL until you flash it back.

[HD7 General] alessio81pa:
I have a question!!!

it's possible to replace the update files (or backup file) for windows phone 7 on zune for install cooked rom for people that have halfbricked bootloader?
[HD7 General] DroidFreek:
My god did we need this. never flashed my device till now. Thank-You
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
i don't believe so, no.

and if one could... it would probably more trouble than it's worth.

glad i could help.

and welcome to the 'Customized ROM world.'

a bit lame that you don't follow your own signature, though. : /

sh4d0w86.
[HD7 General] KayxGee1:
I followed these steps myself. It took a total of 20 minutes to RSPL, HSPL and install and a custom rom (DeepShining Mango). Every great guide for noobies. Although, I must point out that you do not have WMDC stated in the guide. I got a little side tracked by that.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
what is WMDC?

could you point out the Step number?

sh4d0w86.
[HD7 General] htinstaller4u:
sorry for the long delay - step 14. For that step to work for me, I had to right-click the file and use "open with".
[HD7 General] :
I currently have an HD7 Running Mango I believe. It's code for the OS is 7.10.7720.68. How would I go about doing this?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
starting at Step 01 in Post 01. :D
[HD7 General] :
But which radio do I download? I have A&T as my carrier but the phone was created by Tmobile!
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
you have a TMOUS HD7? in Bootloader, your phone should be identified as PD291100. you want the TMOUS NoDo Radio.
[HD7 General] Shrike86:
Hi,

First of all I want to say I've read this thread very thorough.

I've also a HTC Trophy with SPL 5.xx

I want to downgrade my SPL so I can install an older OS.

I follow these steps :

1.Download OS (RUU_Spark_Vodafone_DE_1.09.162.00_Radio_5.50.09.15_22.23.50.09U_by_ansar)

2.Extract SPL_signed.nbh

3.Start RUUWrapper_29

4.Follow instructions on screen

5.Error flash

I have no idea what the problem could be

I want to go back to NODO so I can jailbreak my phone again

Thx
[HD7 General] 5ft24:
Please read about this... it has been posted all over these boards that SPL 5.x CANNOT currently be downgraded without JTAG or Goldcard. You cannot flash over it to go to a previous level. If you do, you can BRICK YOUR PHONE
[HD7 General] Shrike86:
Post 42 in this tread says something else
[HD7 General] ksolo310:
Can you still flash radio's with the SPL 5.xx ? I keep getting errors.

Hi sh4d0w8, I'm currently new to this. I want to downgrade my HTC HD7 T9292 to Pre-NoDo OS version 7.0.7004.0 to unlock it with chevron to install xap files. Just want to verify the steps to take before I proceed.

Device:

HTC HD7 T9292

OS Version: 7.10.7720.68

Firmware: 2250.21.40502.401

Radio: 5.69.09.29a_22.50.50.21U

Bootloader: 4.5.2250.0 (129185)

Steps:

- Follow tutorial instruction steps 1-6.

- Download Pre-NoDo Radio (Europe,1.60.401.01,5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U)

- Continue with steps 8-17

- If successful, follow steps 38

- Download (Europe,1.60.401.01,7.0.7004.0,2250.09.16001.401,5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U,1.60.2250.0(114364)

- Continue with steps 39-44

- If successful, I can unlock it already with chevron to install xap files

Is this the correct steps to take? Appreciate your feedback! Thanks in advance.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
you could skip downloading the Radio, just download the actual ROM.

extract the SPL_Signed.nbh from the .EXE.

place the .NBH in the same folder as task00, and flash.

then flash using the original ROM .EXE.

why not just flash a Custom ROM? would be a quicker.
[HD7 General] cyberjox:
Do you mean I can start directly in steps 38-44, no need of steps 1-37?

I've already downloaded Pre-NoDo Shipped ROM - Europe,1.60.401.01,HTC HD7 T9292,7.0.7004.0,2250.09.16001.401	5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U,1.60.2250.0(114364), extracted the file already. Which file should I copy, SPL_Signed.nbh or RUU_Signed.nbh? And in which folder should I copy it, task 29 or 00.

In my understanding on your instructions is that I need to copy RUU_Signed.nbh to task 29 folder and run task 29. Is that right since I do not need to download the Radio?

I'm new to this, still reading further.. I'll stick with downgrading for now and with shipped ROM's. But what Custom ROM you suggest? Can you give me tutorial links on how to go about it?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
no, you'll still need to downgrade OSPL.

just trying to save you download time.

flash SPL_Signed.nbh with task00.

then, as long as the OS is a stock Shipped ROM specific to your device,

flash RUU_Signed.nbh with task29.

else RSPL before flashing RUU_Signed.nbh.

tutorial to flash a Custom ROM is this tutorial, as well.

just R/HSPL before flashing a Custom ROM.

there are quite a few Custom ROMs out that are worthy of looking at.

by thread count, the most popular are:

DeepShining, Touch-It, DFT's Freedom, intrinsicROM.

i would be inclined to suggest intrinsicROM, as i am the chef.
[HD7 General] cyberjox:
I still need to to follow instructions for RSPL and HSPL for Shipped ROMs? Or for Custom ROMs only?

I'll try it as well.. Thanks!
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
R/HSPL is needed for Custom ROMs.

RSPL could be necessary to flash a non-stock Shipped ROM onto your device. i.e. TMOUS ROM on AT&T's HD7S.

if you end up trying intrinsicROM, let me know what you think in the thread. :)
[HD7 General] cyberjox:
Thanks sh4d0w86! I was successful in downgrading, I'm now back at Pre-NoDo 7004 but failed to unlock it with chevronwp7, having an "uh oh" error. Any info on how to go about it? I guess I would end up using Custom Rom after all.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
i, unfortunately, haven't ever dev unlocked my device besides through Custom ROM.

i do not know of the exact method to do so.
[HD7 General] cyberjox:
It's ok, you've already helped me a lot. I'm currently downloading the Intrisinc ROM, I need to run RSPL and HSPL for custom ROM's right? Do I still need to run task 00 or task 29 only? Will it be the same as the shipped and stock ROM's but much better? Features and functionality of the shipped and stock ROM's will be there as well? Will I be able to install xap files? Downloadable through the browser? Waiting for my download to finish and will try it. Tutorial will be on the same thread?

Thanks again!
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
RSPL is a temporary replacement SPL that reverts back to OSPL after reset.

HSPL is a permanent replacement of OSPL.

basically, it will be more hassle-free to HSPL, instead of RSPL'ing each time.

you'll want to use task29 when flashing a ROM.

should be about the same as Shipped ROM experience, but more personalizable.

yes, Shipped ROM features are still intact.

.XAP are installable, but not through the web. that is only available with Full Unlock.

also, glad i have been of help to you.

I've downloaded and install intrinsic 4.0.1 Europe edition, at first I thought that my download has a problem so I tried downloading it again and extracting it but still having an error. So I tried the other download site, still having the same error when I extract it. I was using WinRAR, I downloaded 7-zip and it extracted successful. Now my phone is running on custom ROM. How can I install XAP files? Tried Tom Xap Installer but didn't work, any guide or tutorial on how?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
i haven't ever used Tom Xap Installer, only the 'stock' Microsoft Application Deployment.

with MAD, Zune is required to be open. maybe try that for TXI?

maybe try TouchXperience? it has .XAP install, haven't ever used, though, either.

yes, you may download applications from the Marketplace without worry.

i would only suggest 'avoiding' Zune updates.
[HD7 General] zyxer_raffy:
Is there any chance without the before 7720 update? to downgrade the SPL?

I open my desktop but the files in the Windows Phone Update folder only contains the "Properties.xml" file.

i assume you have OSPL 5.xx..?

at the moment, only other way is with jtag.

else, we wait for XSPL v3 and hope it supports more recent OSPL versions.

thanks
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
to downgrade OSPL, you'll want pre-Mango. so, NoDo or Pre-NoDo.

i suggest the TMOUS NoDo.

[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
if that is indeed your Bootloader screen info, yes.

easiest way is with a Custom ROM.

for that, you require XSPL.

i made a mistake with Omnia7 n Mozart7, greedy for mango n i found myself with spl 5xxx

having never tried w7 customs i just swop my mozart for a HD7 today with spl 1.69, as i m new to w7 may i ask, is it necessary for me to go for HSPL or RSPL is good enough, to try out the custom roms?

THanks for yr tut.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:

you can just use RSPL to flash a Custom ROM, yes.

Q. If my Unbranded HD7 is ASIA WWE, Can i FLASH the RADIO of EUROPE?
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
i don't understand what you mean... : /

as long as XSPL is on you device, yes, any Schubert Radio can be used.
[HD7 General] zyxer_raffy:
Whats the main reason why to upgrade the Radio?

Current Radio: 5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U from Asia WWE (1.23.707.01)

To: 5.71.09.02a_22.51.50.21U from Europe (5.10.401.04) (Not WWE?)

PS. I have HSPL3.01

PPS. Im from Philippines
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
Radios can possibly change signal strength, quality, and battery life.

everybody experiences different results with Radios on their devices.

for example, for me,

the latest Radio 5.71 gave my TMOUS HD7 worse signal strength and quality then 5.69.
[HD7 General] ndmuni:
@sh4d0w86, Heh! buddy,i just successfully flashed my RSPL, took only a minute or so. I will stick with RSPL for now incase i wanna revert. Cheers

Hi guys. I have got a lot of confirmations of SPL 5.xx downgrading by more diffrent ways in time of Halfbrick Solution Manual writing. You can see on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20136589 thread (actually in preparation).

I downgraded my HD7 to Nodo (Pre-Mango) and now its

Now i have to install a Radio befor Mango right?

but which one?

On 5.xx i had

5.71.09.02a_22.51.50.21U

(Europe one)

Better to install

5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U (Nodo)

or

any Pre-Nodo ones?!

Sorry, i am really confused about it.

Dont want to do something wrong and break my device.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
as soon as the device leaves the Bootloader, it reverts to OSPL when using RSPL.

added to first post. thanks.

what is the Firmware version on your device?
[HD7 General] stanko82:
You really have patience with people. Thank you for that (I did click thank you button).

Just want to summarize, following my doubts:

1. You can install R/HSPL on mango only if boot loader is lower than 4.XXX (ROM does not matter, only boot loader).

2. You can use any of Schubert radios for HD7 if you install R/HSPL before.

3. If you want to revert back to shipped ROM than you just need to download shipped ROM specific to your device, and run RUU_Signed, R/HSPL is not needed.

4. Does Radio udate (5.71xxxx) updates boot loader to a higher value (like 5.1)?

5. Is it possible to flash custom ROM first, and than Radio, afterwards.

Please correct me if I misunderstood something.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
thank you, most appreciated. :D

1-3. correct.

4. i don't understand what you mean. could you better clarify?

5. the order shouldn't matter, as long as device is XSPL'd.
[HD7 General] kirk999:
answer "NO!!!!" for question 4

:))
[HD7 General] stanko82:
Ok Thank you!

Just to clarify what I mean by question 4. How is spl updated to a newer version, does it have anything with Radio update.

I see Kirk999 has answered, thanks for that.
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
if by Radio update you mean through Zune then,

this is actually a Firmware update, which will change Bootloader version.

if by Radio update you mean flashing a Radio from the XDA Wiki page then,

no, flashing a RUU_Unsigned.nbh from a Radio will not change anything, but the Radio software version.
[HD7 General] Martin7Pro:

i currently have bootloader version: 4.5..

and i want to install the Nextgen+ ROM

i was good with flashing in Android with my Incredible S but am new to WP7 so someone please help me out.. :)

Edit: cant i already perform steps 41-43 ??
[HD7 General] 5ft24:
your bootloader is 4.5... you need to be 3.x or lower.
[HD7 General] fatexo:
thank you..

Anything you can say about the "error 294 invalid vender id" error when i try to flash SPL_Signed.nbh using task 00 ??
[HD7 General] 5ft24:
Since it is still OSPL, if the SPL_Signed.nbh isn't the OEM for your phone (IE, your phone is tmous, but the SPL_Signed is AT&T) you will get that error... With RSPL/HSPL, that error disappears
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
this has to do with flashing the wrong SPL_Signed.nbh.

what is your Firmware revision number?

its 2250.21.40503.531
[HD7 General] sh4d0w86:
you'll want to use TMO US.

i suggest flashing the TMOUS NoDo Radio's SPL_Signed.nbh.
[HD7 General] fatexo:
Done.. :D

bootloader version: 3.xx now

one more question is can i now directly flash the Nextgen ROM now or have to follow the steps from 19 to 37 ??

Edit: never mind i did all those steps and installed the ROM :D
