Somewhat confused by the PSAS results.

Formatted a disk on my PC loaded into the Phone and PSAS said that the drive ID07 which was 1936 was 9E000000400000000000020002000000 got an image and when I went back to load it the drive ID07 said the CID was D29200DAC6C7711030303030304D531B, loaded the image anyway and stock 3.14 RUU. The phone seemed to be okay but is having problems with compatibility.

I have now formatted a different sd card and the CID I get is the same as the other card changed to D29200DAC6C7711030303030304D531B. Does this sound right?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anotherstudent:
I may have resolved my own confusion here. When I placed the gold card into the phone I rebooted. I use exchange email and save attachments to the SD card, in rebooting, the phone was creating a folder for attachments and therefore was no longer a clean formatted card. Factory reset the phone and tried again and the CID remained the same and the phone now sorted.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Thanks for that valuable hint. It might help to solve some of the mysterious CID problems some users face.

Gold Card

HI ALL

I´m doing some tests here with my new HTC HD2 ... i´m facing the "not allowed" error on gold card method and "invalid vender ID" with the sspl ...

seams that the code i used (from PSAS site) is only for ANDROID ...

Mr. PCWE could you please gerenate the image for me ??

F2780089C06F832832313544534D5402 diskid 07

if it work ... i´ll try to explaine better my tests to support other friends...

My kwbr ROM was creating a file on the card too and messing up my CID number! :confused:Thanks for your help here pcwe and the useful how-to:)... I used the generic goldcard for 2GB sandisk cards and it worked a treat:D... I suggest everyone gets a 2GB Sandisk card. They run Android well and are easy to goldcard!;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ivastic:
Thanks pcwe! That worked great, now running stock HTC ROM instead of the horrible Telstra bloat-ware...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ivastic:
Not to sounds like a n00b.. But I have two HTC HD2 phones here at work that I want to flash with the stock ROM as the Telstra one is hideous. I got my PSAS Gold Card image from PCWE and the first phone worked great.

Can I use the same gold card on a second phone?

scrap that, took the SD card out rebooted the phone tried again and this time it worked. The first time it just got stuck at the grey screen and did nothing.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mskip:
The GoldCard is relevant for the specific micro sd card so you can use the same card with any HD2 :)

Thanks to all of you, special thanks to pcwe and oliverweidel, my HD2 was stuck on SPL 3.03 and i tried to flash with my provider rom (French, SFR) and it was not working.

So i asked goldcard generation to these members, write it on the SD card (using PSAS) with another HD2 to make my SD goldcard, flash my brick HD2 with the latest HTC Stock rom and now it's working !

Thanks for saving my phone !

Wish you a merry Christmas !!

Clarification needed

Hi,

I'm trying to unbrand my UK o2 HD2, using 1GB SD card.

I have followed the procedures to flash goldcard to SD card using the "save image to wince SD" from PSAS (registered version). I have saved the LEOIMG.nbh to the card as well but cannot get past the bootloader screen when I reboot.

The question I have is, should I see any other file on the SD card other than the LEOIMG.nbh.

Thanks in advance

Solved the problem by renaming the leoimg.nbh in windows rather than when sd card was in the phone.

cheers!

Hi pcwe,

Thanks for the Gold Card image you sent me, unfortunately I can't use it because my CID has changed!

The first time i ran the PSAS software it gave me the CID that I PM'd you with, however after you sent me the Gold Card Image, the next time I ran the software it gave me a different CID. I've tried formatting with the PC instead of the phone with no change. I've read page 22 of this thread- this doesn't apply to me, but all the same I thought I should try a "hard reset" before posting- still the second CID.

The card used was the one that came with the phone –SanDisk 2GB, and I’m 100% certain that I used the same card each time. I’ve also tried using the image for the standard card from page 19 with no success.

Please could you send me an image for this CID:

Thanks again.

HELP- Please

ok, I followed the instructions, after reading them many, many times to ensure all was ok.

After copying the image and stock 3.14 ROM (renamed to LEOIMG.nbh) I restart the phone and hold down the volume down button.

I get the grey screen - Loading.

Then nothing happens. Just sits there, does nothing. When I pull the battery, the phone resets back to the way it was with the 1.72 ROM.

I have HSPL 3.03, SPL 2.08.

I just want a stock ROM, 3.14 WWE. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I just tried this for the 5th time, and now I have a new CID.

Can someone please provide me a gold card for the following CID:

B0C4230090CD2300E007C77A00000000

I have no idea why after so many attempts I am getting a different number. Maybe I was doing it wrong all those other times.

Hopefully this works. Thanks in advance.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mskip:
The HD Mini isnt listed in the PSAS Device list so its not possible to create a GoldCard for that device. I certainly wouldnt risk trying a different device name in the software so unless its updated then a GoldCard for the HD Mini isnt likely.

Mark.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vermania:
Thanks worked a treat!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Apparently, the way your card was formatted (must be FAT32 and allocation size 4096) and whether or not you use a volume name influences your CID.

Anyway, I sent you a PM with a new image.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
As far as I found out, Photon is the device name for the HDmini (the same way Leo is the device name for the HD2). Photon is listed in the PSAS device list so we can make Goldcards.

One way to find out the device name is by downloading a ROM Update from HTC. In the file name of the update, the device name is listed (RUU_Leo_... RUU_Photon_...). That way, you cannot go wrong.

I'm just wondering, why HTC has device names and marketing names...?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OverM@rk:

Hi all,

I've followed all the instructions step by step and it works! My HD2 is alive again :)

Thanks pcwe!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hgalanos:
Guys,

This is just doing me head in.

I have tried this over 25 times. I have followed and read the instructions over 50 times, step by step.

The furthest I can get is to the grey screen with 'loading'. Thats it. Nothing happens. What on earth do I need to do?

I have a Telstra branded phone. I have SPL 2.08, running WWE 1.72 Official ROM.

I simply want to use 3.14 as 1.72 is ok, but still runs slow and locks up.

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.

Please Help me!

I need a Goldcard image for my HD2 (Leo).

My CID is: BCA10096329303804732305553445303

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] shedhed777:
Thanks,

After trying unsuccessfully to flash hd2 with 3.14ROM on Gold Card made with the second image you sent me I started to get a third CID which then reverted back to the second one! I only see a grey screen for a fraction of a second, then it just shows the striped screen. After each failed attempt, when I restart the phone I get a message asking if I want to format the card to make it useable- if I say “No” it doesn’t recognise it (windows doesn’t either and can’t format it unless I do it with the phone first). I’ve tried using another PC- same thing.

I’ve ordered another Micro SD card.

Any other ideas?

Update:

Success!

Your advice to “hgalanos” sorted me out, here’s what I did:

1.	Formatted card in phone

2.	Formatted card in Windows (FAT32) giving it Volume Label “F” (because that’s what it was in “my Computer”)

3.	Followed your instructions from B.3. onwards.

Seems the Volume Label is important in some cases because the PSAS software still gave me the same CID I gave you (the second one).

Worked first time, hope this helps someone else!

Thanks, Beer on its way!

A PM with the image is on the way.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Basically, these two things need to work:

Your card has to work as a Goldcard

Your ROM image has to work

For the first, the first points in the troubleshooting section are important:

Is your card smaller then 4GB?

1. Is your card a no SDHC Card? -> SDHCCards (all cards 4GB or bigger) often cause problems, especially many of the no- or low-brand cards.

As I wrote you before, make sure your card is formatted correctly:

2.1. Format your card again, using a Windows PC instead of the HD2's card utility.

2.2 File System must be FAT32 and allocation unit size 4096 Bytes

2.2. Make sure your card has no name (no Volume Label).

Then this points are further important:

2.3. Double check your drive ID. You need the CID of drive ID 07.

2.3. Double check your CID.

If you manage your card well, you should be able to read out your CID over and over and it should always stay the same. No matter how often you try.

See also shedhed777's post.

For the latter, you may try to redownload your StockROM, rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and copy it on your card again. Do so on a PC and not in the phone.

See the troubleshoot section:

3.1. Download your HTC Stock ROM a second time.

3.2. Extract RUU_signed.nbh from the newly downloaded Stock ROM again.

3.3. Rename RUU_signed.nbh to LEOIMG.NBH.

3.4. Copy LEOIMG.NBH to your newly formatted and try again.

Hope this helps.

Hi guys I have a little problem... I used GoldCard method to flash 3.14ROM on my HD2... so now I wanted to flash 1.66 back so I can install hspl2 to run android from NAND... but here is the thing I tried everything... flashing 1.66 from spl and 3.14 hard reset... then again trying to flash 1.66 also tried to run hspl2 on 3.14 but nothing worked I can't do anything to go back to 1.66 I can't even flash 3.14 again... I'm on artemis rom 44.. pls help.. :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
3.14 is not compatible with bootloader 1.66 or HSPL.

The easiest and safest might be to download the 1.66 StockROM (you find it here, below the 3.14 section) and install it with your Goldcard.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Meiyo:
Thanks pcwe for the Goldcard so much but it's not working.

After I click on write image file and choose the .img you sent me , something in german comes up , which translates to Goldcard_Meiyo.img was not found.

Please help , thank you.

Edit : Ok so I ran it as admin and it worked , but now I'm confused , so now my sd card is my goldcard ??

Ok so I decided to format my sd card again , and the CID changed ??

It is now 9E000000400000000000020002000000 , can I get a goldcard image for this CID , or if there is a way to make it work ??

Wow , this turned out to be harder than I thought it would be.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
Just carefully follow the steps in the troubleshooting section that have to with the preparation and formatting of the card. The details are important. That way, you will get a "stable" CID.

Here's the image for your new CID:

I followed the steps , but it's still not working.

Formatted the sd card , got the same CID , ID 07

Put in my phone and connected through active sync

Then extracted RUU_signed NBH , and renamed to LEOIMG and then copyed it to sd card.

Entered bootloader and nothing happens. I see for like half a second , the grey screen with loading on it , but then it turns back to the colored screen.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
The extracted file needs to be called "LEOIMG.nbh". Try copying it onto your card on the PC and not through active sync.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Meiyo:
Did what you said , it started updating but the screen went black and , I restarted it , in bootloader it says Upgrade ROM code error please try again.

What should I do ? Is my phone bricked ?

The black screen says Software update failed and something...

Edit : Ok so I flashed HD2 to ROM 1.66 Arabic and now I have spl 1.42.0000. I used to have HSPL on it , I think. And I'm going to try again , hope it works.

Still gives me a not allowed error
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcwe:
"Not allowed error" means your card is no goldcard. Just format it again in your PC, choose 4096b as allocation size, make sure the card has no name (volume label). Then read your CID and send it to me. I will make you a new goldcard image.

Hi PCWE, I've just pm'd you a request (twice that is, the first one was wrong). But now I wonder about the following:

Is the CID SD card related or phone related? What I mean to say is, that my HD2 is a non-branded phone, but I need the goldcard to flash another, branded HD2; I sent you the CID of my card in my own non-branded phone. Will this CID work to flash the other branded HD2? If not, I may send you another request....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mskip:
The serial number is the micro SD Cards serial number and not related to the phone in any way. Once a GoldCard has been created and written to your micro SD Card it can be used in any phone of the exact same model to flash any Stock Roms.
