Ok, here is the deal...
I've got HTC phone with this on "ABOUT" page:
Model: HTC Schubert
OS version: 6360.WM7_PPEscrow (buildlab).20100618-1308
Firmware revision number: 0.81.0.0
Hardware revision number: XB
Radio software version: 5.22.33.09_22.10.30.00U
Radio hardware version: 1.102.0.D4
Bootloader version: 0.81.2230.100831
Chip SOC version: 2.2.3.0
On bootloader screen it says:
Security Unlocked
PD29100 MFG
SPL-0.81.2230.100831
MicroP(LED) 0x04
TOUCH ATME(v16)
Although I'm pretty sure that this is HD7 an it is security unlocked,it does not accept any ROM I've tried to put in via RUU. Always ends with: "error 296: Upgrade only. This NBF file cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please get newer NBF file."
Is there something I've overlooked?
This software on phone is some kind of testing software and is really old and buggy. No Zune or phone want to make update.
Bump! Anyone?!
This seems to be some sort of test device/ software. Definitely not developers Mazza version. What are the specs in about phone area? Not a Chinese copy... Post more detail

No, it is not Chinese copy. I don't have it right now in my hands, but in first post you can find what it says in "About".
I also think that this is some kind of prototype/test device. Do you think that it is possible to do something with this procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216393 ?
Also, it has blue area around camera and under tilt, and on HD7 it is yellow.
install HSPL and flash any ROM you want. This is a test device i think. May not be final however.
Phone is at my workplace, so I'll try it tomorow. I hope with success
Also I have one Mozart with same "problem". Do you think I can do same thing with it?
And nothing. This OSPL is not supported. Both devices...
How much you want for that phone? I will be interested if you want to sell it... PM me

Interesting
I ordered a warranty replacement HD7 from TMobile.
I was playing with some bits from dev on this forum to see if I could backup my original phone and restore to the new one.
When I connected the new phone for the first time, Zune recognized it as a device named Schubert, along with my original device.
It eventually resolved to the phone ID I had previously assigned.
Any thoughts? I'd like to understand this better.
Mr wragg
I'm From Morocco and I have the Same Device and the Same Problemes, and no one in the Xda-Developpers have any idea i Post new Thread and no one can answer me just one persone tell me that maybe the device is Developper Device,
I have tried to install All ROM , Costum and Official and always the Myterious ERROR 296,
I search again and again, because in like this Phone I'll break him and buy another because Also it have one language ENGLISH and Market Place not WOrking
have you find any Solution ?

HI I m still a noob in this sh*t.
I can't seem to do updates to my HTC kaiser.
The reason I wanna do that is because I can't install the tomtom that comes with the application cd because my phone tells me that I need to do the updates.
I have an htc orange but I live in Canada so it's unlocked.
ROM version: 3.03.405.0WWE
Date: 01/08/08
Radio version 1.64.06.04
Any help would be very apreciative.
I'm really tryin to find a thread that explains that but I just can't
Thanks
If you want to be more knowledgeable its always good to take a look at the wiki.
As for updates, could you be more specific please? Do you mean a ROM update or a software update? Perhaps posting exactly what the message says would help.
thank you for replying¸
When I go to install the Installer_Kaiser_ttn_6_032_8351_HTC_WWE_20070716:
On the computer instalation goes normally
Then the pc tells me that I need to chek for additional... on phone
On the phone it says here is the message: Unable to install application. Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again.
When I go to the HTC website I try to update and I can't do it because when I put my serial code it tells me that my phone is not compatible
Now Ive made some search and found a post saying that ORANGE kaiser can't get the updates for reasons to hi-tech for me to understand. And that if yo actually do it via some type of hack your phone will be locked wish I don t want to happen.
Please help the only reason I bought this phone is for the GPS
I'll keep on trying to understand on xda
All HTC phones are sold with a specific rom for that phone or for that phone's carrier. Your phone is locked to that rom. It is HTC and your carriers way of controlling what rom you flash to your phone. Presumingly to stop people from screwing up their phones by flashing incompatible roms, and then looking to HTC for a new phone.
If you have an Orange phone, then you can only flash roms approved by Orange and the one you are trying to use is apparently not approved. Unlocked, only means that it is sim unlocked, not CID unlocked.
Were you originally trying to update a program or a rom ?

The question is there. What CD? Did it come with the phone or was it bought separately? What Tomtom version? What exactly does it say when it tells you to "do the updates"? Is it Tomtom saying that, or whatever else?
In other words, what exactly do you have at hand now, what are you trying to do and what is the problem encountered?
It will be hard to help you if we can't understand the situation.
Thanks for both replies
When I got my phone wish I bought from europe over the net, it didn t come with the application cd. I wanted to install tomtom on it and because I didn t have the cd then I couldn't do it.
I searched xda-developers site and I found a link to the application cd contents.
I got the folling:
3gnetopt.exe
Installer_Kaiser_BackupTool_5.1.0.b1450_HTC_WWE_20070710
Installer_Kaiser_GPRSMonitor_2.4.5_b938_HTC_WWE_20070710
Installer_Kaiser_ttn_6_032_8351_HTC_WWE_20070716
SpriteBackupEnglishPersonalSetup
Now whenever I try to install any of those the instalation goes perfectly on the PC ( same way when I install anyother program on my PPC) then I get to the part where the PC tells me:
Please chek your mobile device screen to see if additional steps are necessary to complete instalation.
And on my PPC I see: Unable to install application. Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again.
When I go to HTC website for updates, I enter my serial and it tells me:
can t update because my phone is not compatible
You have to unlock the CID and flash a HardSPL if you are going to install a non-orange ROM. (Yes, this rule applies even if you are going to flash the HTC OEM ROM)
I m goin to do CID-unlock but will that affect my SIM unlock
No. Once your SIM is unlocked, it remains that way.
never mind I got it
Is it normal that when I flashed the new rom it says that I m using 61% of the memory from the start. Insted of the usual 30% for the regular wm6 rom
So I'm attempting to get my friends phone working properly after he messed something up. He called HTC and they told him there are system files missing so the phone won't connect to the internet or power the screen off, will randomly come back and sit on even if you set it up to shut off after 30 seconds.
Factory reset didn't work either way you can do it through about phone or holding down the buttons. I want to reinstall the default OS from the beginning, I get a error through zune that says can't check for updates try again later and gives me a error 80070002
OS version 7.0.7004.0

The only thing is I don't have his sim card as he had to throw it in his other phone and go on a business trip so if I just need that to do it let me know.
Go into the hd7 development section and look for for the thread started by football not ansar. Thats the one should be rom version 1.20. Will return to 7004 pre-nodo. Just was looking he has a few threads actually. If your on tmobile us look for the one that says tmous 1.20

Hello, and yes I'm a NOOB with my first post...
I just got my HD7s and herer is the following info:
OS ver. - 7.0.7390.0
Firmware Rev. # - 2250.21.30306.502
Hardware Rev. # - 0002

Radio Hardware Ver. - A.24.0.D4
Bootloader Ver. 3.4.2250.0(122650)
Chip SOC ver. 2.2.5.0
Here is my question:
What version of WP7 is this ? I have tried to update the unit the force update trick (20+ times) ond was not successful. I treid to load the ROM by ansar and that did not work, either. I think its runnig a demo program because after a few minutes, it runs a 'Get-to-know-Windows Phone' app.
Can anyone tell me what I have and what I can do to get pass this? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
that OS version is NoDo, aka copy & paste update.
you have the HD7S from AT&T, correct?
if so...
the NoDo ROM from ansar, should be the ROM the HD7S ships with...
the pre-NoDo ROM from ansar, is an UnBranded ROM that will downgrade to Pre-NoDo.
though, your HD7S does seem to be running a different ROM version.
3.04.502.06, to be exact.
which isn't the stock Shipped ROM.
unfortunately, no Shipped ROM with Mango has been made available, yet.
so, only way to get official Mango update is through Zune, aka OTA.
but since, the force update isn't working for you... you would have to wait.
you could go unofficial and go the Custom ROM route, if you so desired.
or maybe, since you just got the HD7S, i assume, take back to AT&T can ask if the ROM is Official or not.

Hello, I back with a follow-up.
I learned through tech support at HTC that my 'new' phone is a demo unit. It was suggested that I might go to an authorized ATT corp. center to get help with the software but I really doubt that they will be any help.
So, I hereby make a passionate plea to the gods of programming (that's you guys) to suggest a course of action for me to take.
Thanks for all replies in advance.
One more thing, I forgot to list number - PD29150.
well, if you didn't want to go and try and get a replacement...
you get try XSPL'ing your device.
then you could install a Shipped ROM or a Custom ROM.
i wrote a tutorial here.
good luck,
sh4d0w86.
I am going to try that tonight.
ATT wasn't very helpful or willing to help with a replacement since I didn't purchase directly from them.
Thanks for the tutorial link (I hit the thanks button, too).
Just successfully completed the XSPL and ROM flash.
Thanks for the info/ tutorial.
I am a happy HTC owner!
awesome. glad to hear that.
and thanks for the thanks.

For me is the same,
I have used the same procedure and more others, but the downgrade process always goes wrong..
I noticed some mistakes who the app does before the upload process:
1) always can't find my phone when is connected to the PC
2) don't show my Os version when does the last examination
3) don't give you an advice if something goes wrong before the upload
I want to advice you some better ways to unlock our Phones:
1) In June probably will be the next OS Update, no?
Why they don't starting to work to a next custom unlock update for it?
Maybe if we don't update our phones whit the next, we have the opportunity to update with an custom version.
2) They try to create some app who read and replace the program codes inside the smarphone.
The better way to update our phone it's only Zune, we need a custom version of this.
Hope we find a way, bye.
Follow the gold card method its simple if u have right Y cable.

how to make your y-cable http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676794
Hi guys!
I have an HTC HD7 phone, which was given to me (actually to my mobile phone magazine) about two years ago for writing review. It is a pre-production modell with test OS. It worked for some time but last year broke down, and I was not able to recover it.
Now I decided to give it one more try.
This time I tried upgrade through PC (USB connection is ok, but error code 269 at the end of the process - several ROM's tried) and goldcard method as well - but with no success.
This is written in bootloader:
**
Security Unlocked
SPL-0.93.2250.0(105296)
MicroP(LED) 0x06
TOUCH A1(v10)
nothing in green area (though there is card in the phone)
Serial in white area
**
USB connection works, and the phone can be put into USB host mode - so I think it must be some way to bring it back to life.
When I tried goldcard method the following tools were used:
2GD Samsung microSD
Kingston USB 2.0 microSD Flash Memory Card Reader FCR-MRB
Home made Y-cable
I followed the steps described in several threads here in XDA forum, but with no succes. The best result was that after connecting the phone in USB host mode "loading..." appeared on the screen, but some second later an error message came:
No image file!
(serial - written at the bottom)
What can be the problem? The pre-production ROM? Or should I use different microsSD card, card reader, or not home made Y-cable?
If anyone has an idea how to recover my phone please let me know.
My friend, no one from them will help you!! I don't know what exactly XDA is and how this community helps each other...
I registred here 1 week ago, posted 10 questions and asking for help or any guide how to restore/flash PVK key because my SD card is not recognized. I got only one answer
Okey bro. Take a look there:
http://www.mediafire.com/?dwkt6go38ibi2
And if you have EU phone then try to download these images:
1) / WP7 HTC Schubert HD7 /Goldcard DiagImg Roms / EU_1.16.401.01_R5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09
or
2) / WP7 HTC Schubert HD7 /Goldcard DiagImg Roms / EU_1.69.401.01_R5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10
Extract to SD and flash it from Hostmode.
Best regards
To install custom roms you need to install darkforce teams rspl/hspl to install custom roms. To use gold card you need to have the right image file,and it needs to be named specifically. Check for both of those in the htc hd7 development section.
