Hello everyone, I have problem where all the time it says "loading" off my goldcard...TMOBILE...can someone help?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ibelta:
I try and try but same thing, "loading..."

I have SPL .305.1 official Tmobile

I had created gold card also on PC machine, set everything and copy nbh file to the root of the SD (one is about 277M and next time one that is 34M or something like that.

Also I tries official ROM utility from T-mobile website and it stuck in flash progress of 0% saying the bad SPL version....pls help

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 AM ----------

I try Express installer by KSubedi, it checks the fon and then says "Starting Custom NBH Installation, Check progress on Phone screen"...the phone show HTC abd progress bar of 10% and stays there....

---------- Post added at 09:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 AM ----------

And this is what HTC rep says:

I've done a little bit of research to see if I can determine what's going on and here is where I'm at:

When I pull the serial number in our system, it comes up as an HD2 initially shipped for sale in Poland and for distribution through a distributor in the region called AB S.A. -- additionally, when I pull up the serial number in our system the IMEI that you provided does not match the one that our system has linked to the device.

So what does all of this mean?

The mismatch of the IMEI and serial number could be due to the device undergoing repair at some point and having the internal hardware (specifically the mainboard) replaced with a different one. As for why a device that was seemingly intended for sale in Poland is in a casing that has T-Mobile branding on it -- the most direct answer that I can come up with is that the components of one HD2 have been placed into the casing of a T-Mobile HD2.

While this does not necessarily mean that this is specifically a case of being sold a fraudulent device, my first suggestion would be to contact the seller that you purchased the device from to see if they have a reasonable answer to why the device appears to be giving conflicting information with regard to the region that the serial number pulls up versus the fact that the casing of the device says T-Mobile.

THX Guys worked as it should!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
As mentioned in your PM, your problem was a wrong CID. Sent you a new PM with your new CID. That should do the trick.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
You can put your 3.14 on the Goldcard to have it installed (don't reformat, just exchange the LEOIMG.nbh). Then you get to your 3.03. SPL.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mark3d4death:
Hey,

I requested a Goldcard from PCWE, followed all the procedures, however the phone doesnt flash it just enters bootloader mode.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Sean
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Provided that you have the right nbh file as LEOIMG.nbh on your SD, this would mean that your card was not recognized as a gold card.

Try formatting the card in your PC (FAT32). Insert it in your device and check your CID again. Is it the same? When reading the CID, did you choose the right drive (normally drive ID 7)? Is your card a non HCSD (smaller then 4GB)?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] streametch:
Nice job! It works like a charm! Thank you very much for pcwe and oliverweidel, you are great guys. Now I can run Artemis 41,0 w/o old HSPL on stock Boot-loader and Radio.

Thanks! Thank! Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mark3d4death:
I downloaded the Generic UK ROM, and I have done all that already, tried 3 times now - still no success just hangs in bootloader mode with serial at the bottom. And yes I checked the CID, its deffo the same and is ID7. And its a 512MB - was the only spare one less than 4GB that I could find.

Shall I try redownloading the ROM again?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Yes you may try that. And if you resend me your CID, I'll redo the GC. Just to be on the safe side.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mark3d4death:
No problem all sorted - re did it again and it worked this time... must have been doing something wrong - thank-you very much for all your help - I am now rid of O2s aweful software - thanks again - ill send you a donation later today :).

Thanks again

Much appreciated

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Hi Mark, based on your feedback, I adjusted the formatting, removing the inserts. I found another way to make the sections clear. Now, it should be correctly displayed on any app/device.

Thanks, Patrik

reverting back to official ROM

Hi,

Following the tuto, I've successfully upgraded to latest official ROM and then to artemis ROM.

Now, I'd like to revert back to official ROM.

Can I follow again the steps of the tuto (stopping before installing custom ROM). I've started this way but after formatting the microSD, an "application data" folder (with stuff in it) is written each time I plug it into the phone. After writing the goldcard.img, those folders are still in there. I don't remember such files the first time I flashed my phone and now, I don't want to brick it.

Can I ignore those files and go on ?

Or can I simply run the _HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_S_HTC_xxxx_LEO_S_Ship.exe ?

Thanx for your help.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mf_1:

THX mate.

Didn't expect the image so quick, great job.

Works fine for me (or better: my HD2)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GrotePier:
thanks

PCWE Thank you for the image code. Although I am an experienced Windows user, I did not have any experience with Mobile Windows untill now.

So the first thing I decide to do - after reading some pages ;) - was to unbrand my Vodafone HD2 :D With your very good tutorial and the image code, all went very well and I now have a unbranded Vodafone with Artemis 41. Thans from a happy user :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Logiball:
Thank you for the Goldcard.img.

all Update --OK

Thanx for your help.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mmg06:
all over i find it gre4at. You are the best. But after i read your instructions, there is one question left:

What is with the warrenty?

My HD2 is from tmobile and i have 1 year of my warranty.

I hope, that you can help me and that no one ask ths question before;-)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
The application data folder gets written by HTC Sense, whenever the card is in and your device is booted. You can just delete it, no problem.

To get back to your branded ROM you can install your provider's latest Stock ROM either directly through Active Sync or using the Goldcard (i.E. for TMobile:ruu_leo_tmo_de_1.72.111.4_radio_crc_signed_15.32.50.07u_2.07.51.22_2_ship.exe)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
No problem there. Just download the branded TMobile Stock ROM from their webpage (ruu_leo_tmo_de_1.72.111.4_radio_crc_signed_15.32.50.07u_2.07.51.22_2_ship.exe). In case you need to send it in, just install that ROM.

BTW, my HD2 was T-Mobile too,

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] user htc hd:
Need clarification

Hi Guys,

I have some questions about this process. I will try to explain clearly my request so :

I have an HTC HD2 branded on French SFR provider. If i flash an official unbranded rom coming from the HTC site for example 3.14 with a french serial number given by a friend what will happens :

1) The phone will be PERMANENTLY unbranded even if i proceed an HSPL and put it back a stock SPL

OR

2) When i will go back to a stock SPL after an HSPL my phone will be rebrand to SFR

Finally if i well understand, the goldcard method will override any spl by bypassing the secured check of operator and unbrand your phone where a HSPL only replace your SPL with an hacked version of the SPL ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
You cannot install a HTC StockROM on a SFR branded device. The serial number will allow you to download the StockROM but when you try to install it, it will tell you "Wrong VendorID". All the Goldcard does for you is bypassing that vendor ID check. You will always need the Goldcard when you want to install any ROM that is not SFR branded. But you can always go back to a SFR branded ROM without using the Goldcard.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jmarley:
I see why a lot of people have a ***** when questions are asked again when the subject has already been thoroughly discussed a couple of pages back :rolleyes:

This site is a total monster to try to find anything but I suppose that's the nature of the beast !

Hi, i have a identique probleme with HD2 SFR and impossible of flash rom with a goldcard !!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kevin_xsi:
Hd2 sfr "spl 3.03.000"

Can i build a goldcard with a different windows phone?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Every time I explain something again, it gets ever clearer to me too. And each time I get new case studies to illustrate. That is what make up a community.:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Can you explain e bit more what your problem is? In what step exactly do you get stock?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kevin_xsi:
Hd2 sfr "spl 3.03.000"

Hello, I flashed my phone with the latest HD2 official rom 3.14 Since the SD card "LEOIMG.nbh" and now he is stuck in the bootloader with an SPL 3.03.0000! And I could see that other members are able to with the ex Goldcard ... I tried to create one with a HTC Polaris, but without success ...

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
I dont' speak french that much (please use Google translator for future posts). But if I understood you right, you tried to use a Polaris Goldcard to flash your HD2. That does not work. A Goldcard is unique for each device type. You need to prepare a HD2 Goldcard and follow the same steps again.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jmarley:
Hi pcwe, Not totally sure but I thought the Goldcard mod is just an id mod to the actual SD card.(just changes the id header)

I have never used My HD2 to create a Goldcard........maybe that's why I had a few issues last year...lol
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Thats true...

...but the kind of header is unique for each model. So the Goldcard Image for LEO is different then for another HTC model. You need the CID and then generate the header image for your model. PSAS lets you generate keys for more then 60 HTC models from "Alpine" to "Wings".
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] user htc hd:
Thanks !

Thanks for the answer ! So the goldcard is an alternate method like HSPL but the goldcard will work for any futher SPL version

Just a little word, the title of the Topic is hardly confusing : [TUT] How to Unbrand / Debrand your HTC HD2 with PSAS Goldcard

You will not unbrand your HTC, it just allow you to install one time an unbranded rom ...

Thanks it will allow me to install 3.14 rom and avoid compatibility problem between HSPL 2.08 and this ROM
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jmarley:
Well the PSAS way is a snip compared to the old way with a hex editor ;)

Not tried it but it seems to be working well for everyone so I won't confuse Your good work :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Its true, you cannot change the serial number, which ultimately decides what you can install (Vendor ID check). But after using the Goldcard to apply a HTC Stock ROM, all elements of your Branded ROM will be replaced by the installed, unbranded version (Radio, Bootloader, Splash Screen, OS, Configdata - see also screenshots in first post). With that, your Software is unbranded!http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=825397

So while the vendor ID is still the same, you can install an unbranded StockROM with the Goldcard.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kevin_xsi:
I have the serial number of my SD card (A49C0005EA1E03804732305553445303), it is possible for someone to make me one for my Goldcard HD2 because it is no longer operable windows since I tried to flashed with the latest official rom 3.14 ...

This is the first time I have attempted to do this and without the wisdom of xda members I would have been totally clueless. I have followed all the steps and the Sd Card Serial showed as-CA8300749FEB03102020494D534D531B - disk id 07 this was a 256mb sd card as the 8gb card i was using did not show the correct size, is this 256mb is this big enough?. I have searched to see if I could download this goldcard file but was unable to find it, I would be very grateful if any member could provide me with the necessary goldcard file, Many Many thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tmwmad:
I forgot to say that I have tried to install the latest rom 3.14 from HTC before I knew about the problems with HSPl and now the phone is not starting, I assume this will let me reflash without this problem, I hope:D thanks again
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Sorry, but the StockROM (LEOIMG.nbh) that you have to copy on the Goldcard is almost 290 MB. So you need at least a 512MB card. 8GB cards often cause problem as they are HCSD. Non HC SD-Cards are smaller then 4GB.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tmwmad:
Thanks, for your swift response I shall get a smaller card and try again, thanks again

Hi there, I have the V1615 (Kaiser) and I have locked myself out of it. I put the 4 digit lock code on just as a stuff you to my very suspicious ex girlfriend and forgotten what the code is. I put the 4 digit code on as opposed to the strong alphanumeric code option it has because I thought I would remember it. I would've remembered it if I didn't change it every other day. Is there anyway of getting this lock off or hard resetting to remove the code? The discs I got with the phone don't seem to be much help.

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you for your help.

Unfortunately, I only have a LEO and never had a Kaiser. But as to my understanding, a hard reset should solve you problem (as it removes the whole configuration on your device).

That's a very common problem, often mentioned in the Artemis Forum.

Try another USB port. Somtimes, you need to try several times.

Do you use Artemis V42? According to Sternas' release notes, he tried to optimize the installation process in connection with SSPL, beginning with V42.
