As long as you follow the correct procedure while using either USPL or HSPL you will be fine. Only difference between USPL & HSPL is that USPL is temporary and you are required to re-use it before evry flash to new rom or radio and HSPL is permanent so once its on you can continually flash new roms & radios without having to reuse it.
cRaCKwHoRe provided a nice and easy Dummys guide which can be found in my signature. Alternatively there is more information in the wiki

sweet thanks for the information. all these flashing stuff is so confusing. i will try to use HSPL.
Question: im reading the guide right now. I got 1.14.0000, so do i go straight to step 5? or do go to step 1? also do i need to download all these files?

Seeing as your following guide your query should really be in the guide thread and this one could be closed my MOD.
Your answer - If you have 1.14.0000 go to step (5) as guide states. Only download what is necessary.
If you plan to be a constant flasher I would ignore most of the guide as it states at start of it and just flash HSPL 1.56 before flashing new rom.
USPL is temporary and you would need to re-use it before every flash to new rom or radio. HSPL is permanent so use it once and never again!!

In order to upgrade to a cooked rom you will need either HSPL or USPL on your device first.
I'd recommend reading up on them first in the wiki and then follow cRaCKwHoRe's guide (see my signature) on how to install them.
thx a lot man...

You can use USPL or HSPL. USPL will change your stock SPL only for a moment, so you can't be worry about warranty.
HSPL will change SPL and replace it. You can also restore stock SPL and delete HSPL from device before you give back device to the service.
but can i use any desired rom straight away? if so, why do i need to know what my spl is?

if you have stock ROM now and you want to change it to e. g. Miri 6.5 v25 ROM which is 1.56 based, you must first install official 1.56 ROM which replace youcy stock SPL to 1.56. Second you can flash it with USPL or HSPL to get e. g. Miri ROM.

Ah i understand, first of all i need new official rom, which is 1.56 and then i can use basically any desired rom. Does flashing 1.56 rom means i'm gonna loose warranty on my phone?

you can get 1.56 ROM on official HTC Website- you You'll not lose the guarantee
but
Every unofficial ROM from XDA it's the loss of the guarantee, but you can restore stock ROM and go to service...

so you have to get deviceID from guy who can download it. Then you can install it using USPL/HSPL

dnload and install hspl 1.56 olinex from the tutorial thread..
no need to update to official rom... jus a waste of tim..
if u dont want hspl then dnload 1.54 stock from the same thread and flash it.
use uspl nex tim onwards to flash new roms.
updatin to officials is a waste of time..
that's exactly what i'm doing right now. Downloading 1.54 update and then will install it and put on dutty'r extreme i think it's called. Is that correct procedure?
Talking about 1.56, what i ment is that i've downloaded updated and it wouldn't install. So guess will have to do it through the bootloader. Am i correct?
Last think i want is to damage my "gem" lol..;-)

well to dnload the update u need a serial number..
nd u always can flash from bootloader as it is the safest way.
the best advise i can give u is install hspl 1.56 olinex..
this is because in future if nethin goes wrong wid ur usb port u still can flash stock rom and spl.
if u use uspl it will not be possible...
and in any case fr warranty purposes also ull change spl from 1.54 to 1.14.
so why not 1.56.olinex to 1.14.
involves the same steps rite!!

Checklist!

Hello guys
I have been dying to flash my blackstone for a while now but i was scared of damaging it.
Anyway i went through all the tutorials (tyvm to everyone) and i think i am finally ready.
I just want to check a few things before i go for it.
Please correct me if i am doing something wrong thanks in advance.
My spl is 1.14.0000.
so i need to upgrade it to official spl 1.54.
Question: 1. I want to use USPL i understand that dosnt void my warranty right?
I downloaded all files in cRaCKwHoRe's TUT
in order to do that.
I have also updated my usb drivers.
I have a copy of Duttys' 3.9 Rom.
Questions: 2. If i upgrade to spl 1.54 from that post i wouldent need to reswitch it ever to 1.14 for warranty purposes right?
3. Are their any risks at all of bricking the device while flashing?
4. I tried downloading the official rom upgrade why did i get a ''this rom is not for your device message"?
5. I read their is a way of flashing from the sd card i understand i need a BLACIMG.NBH file where can i get it is there a Tutorial for this?
6. My phone is Branded should i save/backup the stock branded rom just in case?
Sorry for the long post

[Q] Flashing CUSTOM ROM Newbie Help

Hi xda-developers community,
sr if this question is anoying but i tried to find a answer for it but the only things i was able to find out that some errors occured. But not if Succes or Failed.
I want to developer unlock my HD7 via custom rom.
Here are my System Infos:
OS Version: 7.10.8107.79
Firmware: 2250.21.51101.401
Hardware: 0002
Bootloader: 5.11.2250.0(134578)
Chip-SOC: 2.2.5.0
I have noticed that the bootloader is my main problem. I first need to downgrade. Problem no Synco Save via Zune (damaged HardDisk).
So is there any actual way to successfully downgrade my HD7 to a version to be able to install a Custom Rom?
And another question is, when really accomplished to flash a custom rom, is it possible to update via Zune or does this recover to normal rom?
Thx for ur advices to a noob with WP7.
nice regards Synergi
Damn sr pls if a moderator could be so friendly to add a Title to my Thread i forgot to add this.
thx
is the first link in my signature. wrote a tutorial.
press edit button to edit a post and it's title.
that tutorial helped me out too....just follow it and u have a unlocked phone!!!
welcome to customization
Thx for Link, but before i proceed i need a little bit more information pls.
1) For what i need to download task 00 & task 29? In ur tut they are never used again? Or did i missed anything?
2) Next is in ansar.ath.gr's tut he tells not to install after downgrade a custom rom with 5.10 Bootloader. Is this ment to if i install a stock ROM with this version that downgrage would loose because i install this bootloader again? (sr for bad english)
3) difference between RSPL & HSPL. as i read the RSPL is only active until restart and the HSPL is fixed. So with the RSPL i can try if everything works correct and the Cook it with the HSPL is this correct?
4) What kind of customs roms can i use for a HTC HD7 Europe/Austria A1???
Thx for ur advice.
sincerly Synergi

he says to not install a 5.xx ROM so you avoid putting yourself in the same position you were in before.

welcome, glad i could help. happy flashing.
Hello XDA Community,
i need a little bit ur help x) As usual.
I followed ansars Guide to downgrade my spl. This worked successfully. Tricolor screen says:
PD29100 MFG SS_BC (4K)
SPL-1.57.2250.0(113571)
MicroP(LED) 0x07
TOUCH S1(v1.8,#1624)
When RomUpdateUtility finished an error occured which said that a file is curroped. But Phone rebooted successfully.
First Question was this just a tiny bug or went sth wrong?
Secound Question is: I wanted then to continue installing custom ROM. I used DFT_RSPL to get rspl to flash unsigned custom rom. DFT successfully run trough but phone didn't reboot and no RSPL still SPL. And HSPL cant continue. So my problem is i cant get RSPL to work. What am i doing wrong?
nice regards
Synergi
i hadn't ever used ansar's SLSPL before...
i suggest flashing Shipped pre-NoDo or NoDo ROM for your device.
maybe will 'fix' whatever went wrong with SLSPL.
ok thx. actually im downloading pre-nodo 1.54 Europe SPL. Sadly Rapidshare free is actually really slow 30Kb/s
When finished downloading i will try to flash this Version over Ansars and then RSPL -> to flash custom ROM.
Thx for ur advice.

Success !!!
After ansars SPL i just had to flash a stock ROM. I choosed PRE-NODO 1.54 Europe and then i was able to RSPL and finally flash a Custom ROM.
Really thx for all ur help.
What im now interested in is, which is the best Custom ROM? Or better asked which is not the best, but which should I prefer?
I want as many possibilities as possible.
Actually im having DeepShine Custom ROM active but i want to look trough of the top to make a decision which i will take for further use.
Can someone maybe tell me which is his favourite and why?
And another question is -> whith the custom rom installed am i able to update via zune or shouldn't i do that? (If not how can i sync with zune and prevent zune to update my phone)
nice regards Synergi
As i now read through a little bit of the custom roms available, i think i will go with Nextgen+ It sounds like a good work for me x) If u have any other suggestions pls let me know thx

Custom ROM choice is all about personal preference.
the top Custom ROMs seem to be:
in alphabetic order: Deepshining, Dynamic7, intrinsic, NextGen+
As i have now the Custom ROM NexrGen+ active i have a problem again x) As usual sr XDA Community.
I cant cumunicate with my pc.
Windows 7 x64
Installed: WMDC, CoreCon2, Zune
The System recognizes that a Windows Phone 7 is plugged in but can install the drivers for it.
Any solution for this?

Sr for my bad english. It's not actually the drivers. In German its called "Gerätesoftware" i think its device software. Windows tells me that he wasn't able to install the device windows phone 7.
