Hi, do you have installed the correct drivers??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524619

cheer dude, but i think i've sorted it. USB cable was connected through the hub, so pluged it in directly, voila! it worked lol..

Sorry for double post, bit noobish question.
so it shows my SP is 1.14.0000
what am is suppose to do next? use USPL or HSPL?
And what rom? first 1.56?
it's just way too confusing, well at least for me

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!!

i want to be able to flash my rom so that i could install the HTC RUU on my tmo wing ( it's actually a herald but i was stupid enough to put in the TMO RUU)
Do you know any way i could do that with instructions available?
Also, once i do it, would the phone become unlocked again or still locked Just wondering.

The HARD-SPL is a little more dangerous than the USPL... I can help you find ways to get any ROM you want on that phone easily enough, but UNLOCKING it again is the hard part. There's not 100% sure fire SAFE way of doing it.
welll, i just installed the hard-spl on my device and it went through
there's just one thing that gets me...
what's the difference with this hard-spl and HTC?
is the only difference is that the boot screen is different or are there more features?
For now, I just need a comparision of what the hard-spl has from the HTC one.
The Hard-SPL is a customer SPL. It's permanent, too. You will have to create your own customized RUU from now on, one that lacks the SPL. You can't flash RUU's that contain SPL because the SPL is now write protected. It's convinient, though, because now you can't accidently screw it up. (It's safe once you have it IN your device. Too many people brick their phones trying to get it in there in the first place, though.)
So now i won't be able to put in the HTC RUU anymore?
All right, sorry i'm being so stupid, but here's another question...
You said that i now have to make my own customized RUUs?
What do you mean by that?
If you don't mind, you could send me a pm, I don't want to spam this thread with my stupidity.
Now you can flash ANY rom you want.
ALL cooked ROms - really all - without the chance of bricking = your device is SAFE.
IF you respect this little thing
every RUU Rom Update Utility
contains:
1. Enterbootloader.exe
2. Rapitool.exe
3. RomupgradeUtility.exe (the one you start)
4. RUUGetinfo.exe
5. RUU ressource.dll
6. RUU_signed.nbh (that is the custom system OS - you can put every HERALD .nbh here postet in touchIT3 for example)
7. SPL.nbh ---- !!!!!!!! delete this allways!!!!!!!!! ------ (it is in all official RUU but delete it)
now you can flash with an official update tool all custom roms for you herald.
But don´t use wing roms - the keyboadmapping is different.
There are good herald roms, too.
Good luck

Back to the stock SPL? The only thing I can think off and it MAY NOT WORK OR BRICK YOUR DEVICE because I haven't tested it is using USPL to flash the stock RUU and hopefully that will overwrite the SPL.
From my understanding, the stock Tmo Wing RUU does have SPL and will over write it back to stock.

Except that the HardSPL is coded not to let another SPL overwrite it. Using USPL should overwrite this lock.

Yes. That will let you use any ROM, but if he wanted to go back to the stock SPL for warranty reasons, that would be the way to go, I would hope.

I don't understand. You HAD the HARDSpl installed in your phone? You ran the stock RUU and it automatically wrote the HardSPL even though the HardSPL was purposely coded not to allow that?
SO you say when installing a official RUU WITH SPL.nbh - the HArd-SPL will be overwritten??
Please clarify your devicesttings.
i tried it again and i missed a step (my bad)
here are the steps that worked for me......
step 1 :run the uspl (in the botton link of these steps) but in step 3 of the uspl program the ruu isnt going to work..
step 2 : put ur phone in bootloader run the stock ruu and at 1% the phone is going to restart and get out of bootloader..
step 3:simply put it back into bootloader (without disconnecting it to your computer) and let the stock ruu run...after go thru the steps...the align the screen put a pasword ect.. let it update the windows (if u dont want it to update then just soft reset the phone before it starts) and then your done.

verified: wing can go from hard-spl to stock spl via uspl
1. download uspl aka flash center and wing factory ruu
2. copy RUU_signed.nbh and SPL.nbh from wing factory ruu to flash center
3. run it
completed successfuly with no intervention, didnt have to put in boot loader
after flashing i checked (soft reset while holding camera button)
spl was 4.10.0000
Bootloader--Stuck
Hi,
After trying the above, I now get the bootloader screen... showing IPL 4.17.0001 and SPL 4.10.0000.. Try flashing it with

HTC_P4350_WWE_4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe [Invalid Vendor ID] & RUU_Herald_HTC_WWE_5.4.405.1_4.1.13.34_02.79.90_Ship.exe [Invalid Vendor ID].
I also tried alot of the cooked rom v4.0/V4.4/OpenTouch 2.4/
HERALD.ASERG.23F.WM6.RUS.PS6.rar but also get error message as file corrupt [#270]
I had the hardSPL installed before this..Trying to got back to stock rom because I am selling the phone. Do you guys have any suggestion?
Which ROM can I use to make it work.
My phone is the Dopod C800

URGENT: flashing back to stock for warrenty - all gone wrong

hi
i've need some help urgently on this as the phone is being picked up in the morning and its currently going really bad
i had dutties 3.9 rom on, but i found a 1.19 orange rom in the wiki, so installed this.
however the display is very bad, and is only showing 16 colours so looks rubbish
I belive this is to do with the SPL
This is what i did:
1. put phone in bootloader mode (was displaying SPL 1.56)
2. ran blac_uspl.exe in USB mode which changed the SPL to 1.15 (USPL)
3. installed the rom
did i do something wrong?
any help VERY appreciated
Thanks
Did you tried to flash back your original SPL??
USPL is just a temporary patch of the SPL...
I think you have to flash back to SPL 1.15...
To check if you have the right version put phone in bootloader mode it should displaying SPL 1.15...

2. dnload the hspl 1.56 olinex wrapper
3. connect ur fone to pc in the bootloader mode.
4. run the hspl 1.56 olinex wrapper and do nothing to the onscreen utility.
5. wait fr the files to be xtracted in the window from where u ran the hspl wrapper.
6. replace the self extracted ruu_signed.nbh with the stock spl 1.15 that u downloaded.

yes you're right, it solved my problem
the reason i didn't try in the first place was becuase the title said HARD SPL and i didn't want to mess it up as i used USPL
i used Restore_Stock_SPL_115.zip and swapped the nbh file after initilizing installation (after extraction) and it worked great

so here's my question then !! The preNodo method only works with unbranded devices ??? like it won't work with a Tmobile HD7 USA ???
The Tutorial thread explains what needs to be done in the clearest way, if you haven't read it, check it out
Basically, if you have a Pre-Nodo backup in Zune, it shouldn't matter whether you've got a Branded or Unbranded device. If you don't have a pre-Nodo backup, and you're device is Branded and on SPL 5.xx (which from what i'm reading, your's is) then the easiest way to donwgrade SPL (and therefore have the ability to get a custom ROM on your phone) is to use this GoldCard method.

thanks,,,that made things clear...so since I currently have the 7720 ROM on my phone and the last backup is of December 1 2011...is it safe to assume that its NODO or Pre_nodo ?? Cos if it is I might go ahead with it...for some reason Goldcard method looks more vulnerable to bricking the device...(opinion)
Well i guess it depends when your device was updated to NoDo. I think it came out early last year didn't it? Like March/April? So a December 2011 backup is likely a post-Nodo backup and therefore you won't be able to use it.

ok...I see....that means...goldcard method is the only hope !
I have a TMO w/5.10 BL and need to get the NoDo Rom for TMOUS w/BL 3.1.2250.0(119314). Unfortunately the link is for FileFactory and it moves like molasses and just times out. Anyone have another link for that ROM or know where a mirror might be? Thanks.

about your last question...
yes , there is a way to repair the device that has been bricked!
it's like flashing computer mainboard's bios , if it's not even loading it can be programmed again! but unfortunately i haven't been able to find see how they do it.

[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.

welcome, hope it solves the issue.
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?
Nice regards

what drivers are you referring to?
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.
