You seem to have the latest version for Austria/Germany.

And there are no chance how to upgrade to RC33? Or how to unlock sim?

You get sim unlock by calling your cell provider or paying for an unlock code.
That feature is not covered anywhere on here for free.

There is no way right now to downgrade your G1 and/or to gain root access.
Don't bother, there is no solution yet, the G1 T-Mobile Austria/Germany firmware is just too new and doesn't offer the possibilities of the older UK/USA versions, sorry.
To make it short: save your time trying, it ain't gonna work.

Weird Information of my G1

I just bought T Mobile G1 2 days ago, and I want to update it from 1.1 to 1.5
But I have different phone information from the tutorial that I read, so I'm still using 1.1 version.
This is the description:
Baseband version
62.33.20.08u_1.22.12.29
Kernel version
2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0
[email protected] #6
Build number
123099
I have no idea what RC number that I'm using.
Please Help mem I really want to update this phone to access some new application.
Thank you.
Are you rooted and in the US? If it is a stock US phone 1.5 should come OTA.
If you don't want to wait, see this: http://www.androidcentral.com/how-manually-install-android-15-cupcake-us-version

Nope, I'm at Germany. OTA?! What is that?! Sorry, I new at this.
Is it the process save?Because I'm afraid it is only for US or UK.
OTA = over the air. Basically your phone service provider will automatically send you the update in a few days.
However, I am not knowledgeable about Germany, and don't know what OS version is used there, how OTA updates work, and most of all whether or not that link is a US only version (99% sure it is - especially because the link says "US version").
Good luck finding help.
you would probably just be better off rooting and getting the newest ROM.
here is the information i found most useful for me when i first rooted.
here are the links to Cyanogen's stable & experimental roms, i've used both and i personally love the experimental version.
hope this helps.
Use THIS guide. It is based on the one linked by davidchill but it has pics, updated links, changed wording for better clarification, and a few steps added to avoid confusion. Also when you are done with that there is a program in post #2 that will walk you through partitioning and do all the math for you.

[Q] HD7 - Basic Questions on flashing and unbranding

First, hi there.... i'm a newbie regarding flashing smartphones.... so please be kind
My phone info:
OS Version: 7.0.7008.0
Firmwareversion: 2250.09.11901.207
HW-Rev: 0002
Radio: 5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U
Radio-HW: A.102.0.D4
Bootloaderversion: 1.19.2250.0(111297)
Chip-SOC-Version: 2.2.5.0
Provider: o2 Germany
(HD7 bought via o2myhandy)
PreNoDo-Update is installed.
And here are coming the questions :
1. Correct me if im wrong but it looks like my HD7 is branded from o2. (i have the o2 accent theme in my design settings and so on)
2. I want to unbrand my HD7, to get updates directly and not through o2. Is that possible?
3. If that is possible, which ROM should i use to flash? (Is it useful to debrand my phone with an preNodo ROM and update it then through zune?)
4. Can i use the offical HTC ROMs, or du i have to use other ones?
Thanks!
This is exactly what I've been wondering too. The o2 search provider (Yahoo) on my phone annoys me lots and I'm fed up waiting for the 7.0.7390 update to arrive. Shall I take matters into my own hands!
Hi
I followed the instructions on this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988672
and have updated to NODO successfully
Please Note it seems to work with only HTC HD7 on O2 UK
I had an O2 UK and its seems to unbrand it to European version to get the nodo update
Do make sure you read the post properly again and again if you must , cause I made a few cockups a couple of times but got it right the third time
Thanks!
Whats the difference between the o2 UK and o2 DE ROMs aside the language?
I've also updated my phone and it worked flawlessly!
It's even now offering the NoDo update officially from MS, I presume because the phone is now unbranded.
Unbranding made a big difference to my phone, stripping the o2 logo off the bootup sequence and taking the crappy Yahoo search off IE.
Very happy with the improvement
Ok, i hope its not off-topic, but i there seems to be too many threads that got me confused ( some with deleted op )
I am getting a T-Mobile unlocked hd7, question is .. is there a way to unbrand and get NoDo ? If i do it will it get locked again ? ( i used unlock code to unlock it )
Please if it has been posted before, just guide me to the threads i should read.

Did you remove netlock? A unlocked phone will allow you to side load apps. T-Mobile wouldnt do that (its not legal).

Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
By unlocked i meant SIM-unlocked -.-'

Is there a Tmobile Rom Unbranded/Unlocked?

I recently bought an HD7 (Still have my HD2) and had to unlock with Chevron, and then do the Feb update and Nodo. Issue for us Tmobile users is unless it's an unbranded ROM we can't get 4G. Ansar, maybe you have tackled this already. Any help would be appreciated. I could cook from my current ROM if someone knows how to open up the 4G.

Is there anyway to downgrade Lollipop?
I am also in the same boat with OP, I have a Sprint HTC One M8 Harmon/Kardon with Marshmallow 6.20.654.3. I live overseas and i need to get this phone sim-unlocked. Can this be done with the current software version or do I need to downgrade the ROM to be able to sim-unlock my phone for use with an international GSM-Network?

Looking for Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Official Stock AT&T Rom for my unlocked phone

I bought a Note 9 from Amazon I thought it was an official AT&T phone but it is the unlocked version. My unlocked version does not support a number of AT&T's features I would like to have access too. I have read how to flash the Rom and I know how to do it. I downloaded a Rom which I thought was the AT&T stock rom but it was actually the same Rom I had the unlocked version. So when I flashed it it was the same as before. I think it is possible it flash the phone so that it is like I bought it from AT&T. I have seen people do this on youtube with their Galaxy note 10's. I am unable to find the Official Stock Rom or maybe I have and am unsure if it is the official one. So if anyone knows where I can get the dang official Rom so I can flash my unlocked phone and turn it into an official AT&T phone that would really help me. Thank you very much.
My Model Number is
SM-N96OU1
My Baseband Version is
N96OU1UEU4DTC7
My build number is
QPA.190711.020.N96OU1UEU4DTC7
Will this one work on my phone?

in fact that DID answer your question.
in sammobile, you could find your "carrier" rom version as you want, which is U, not U1 (unlock version).
then use samfirm or frija to download the rom with max speed.

So If I want to flash it too the official AT&T I should look for SM-N96OU instead of SM-N96OU1, correct? I am nervous about bricking the phone. I have read that the AT&T version and the unlocked phones are exactly the same they just have different firmware. Is this true?

I'm looking to convert my SM-N960U1 (unlocked) to the AT&T version as well. I'm seeing the following as the lastest firmware I should be downloading to convert to AT&T. Can anyone verify this because the N960U does not have AT&T firmware available?
...firmware/SM-N960U1/ATT/download/N960U1UEU4DTC7/335086/
All the U firmware is the same. If you have At&t sim you can flash any Note 9 U firmware and it will provision to your sim. If you are coming from U1 you will need to do a factory wipe. Was your device purchased as unlocked or was it U?....
Oops never mind I see its unlocked.

For some reason i feel that Sammobile its more about selling firmware software to buyers of samsung instead of helping people take the best out of their phones. Some of use pay over the 1000 dollar for a phone and dont get easy help while samsung should atleast give us the freedom to get the firmwares for our devices for free. Sam mobile has ablot of information on their website,but ofcourse nothing for free. Even signing up their websites is an issue,and to get support thats another issue. So i most say Sam mobile its all about selling Samsung software,while you and me who buy the phones,not sammobile! Resell it back to us. Seriously its discrimination in my eyes. Maybe am wrong, but thats how i feel about. Now i dont know what business relation sammobile has with samsung,but i know the founder is not a. Chinese, but a Holland guy. Thank u.
