sorry i should have been clearer
'' the 16gb card that ships with tmous hd2's doesn't usually work for flashing.''
(yea yea there are now gonna be half a dozen tmous users all saying they can, hehe)
((oh and i mean for stock rom flashing, of course, not android..))

[Q] New to the HD7 and WP7, and need help!

Hello,
I just picked up an HD7 pretty cheap, and I decided I'd stick with it for awhile and start playing with it.
First off, here is what it is updated to:
Carrier: T-Mobile USA
OS: 7.10.7720.68
Bootloader: 5.10.2250.0
Basically, I have been reading around the threads for awhile, but I am still not understanding what is needed to put a custom ROM on this phone.
I understand that since I have a 5.X bootloader, that I need to downgrade, but is using a USB Y Cable my only option? Or is there another way to downgrade without any extra hardware? Thanks for any help.

ya u got a tmous phone like me. here u go:
this is what i used
two of these LINK
and one of these
LINK
instructions with video LINK
the flash drive was a lot cheaper when i bought it. like 5 bucks. if u have one laying around ur house id try that one first before buying another.

So there's NO way to do it without a Y-Cable? There is no way to do it with just a normal USB to Phone Cable? Thanks.

since OSPL 4.xx and 5.xx are not supported by XSPL, at least currently, one is limited on how they can downgrade the Bootloader.
the method choices:
pre-Mango Back-up via Zune Restore
y-cable
a. Goldcard method
b. non-Goldcard style method
JTag
instructions for all, but jtag & goldcard, can be found in via the tutorial link in my signature.

Ok, thanks. For the JTAG method, do I need any extra cables? Also, I can't seem to find a JTAG tutorial.

i haven't ever used jtag before. you might try searching riffbox, it is a popular type of jtag.

Ok, thanks. I guess I'll just do the Y-Cable method. I'll hit up Best Buy today, and pick up my supplies. Wish me luck!

Alright. So I made a Gold Card, and I created a Y-Cable. I made the Y-Cable correctly, and the Gold Card correctly, but it is still not working. The phone is not recognizing the SD Card on the other USB female end.
The ONLY thing I didn't do is solder the cables together, I tightly twisted them, and ensured none of the other colors where touching, by securing each bundle with electrical tape. But I'm not getting any response from the phone in USB Host mode.

Also, is it possible to use the internal memory to flash the file? Example, what if I take apart the phone, and put the file on the internal memory card, can I attempt to flash that way?

Update: Still not able to get the Y Cable to work. I have verified it's correctness over and over again, and I have verified that I am creating the Gold Card correctly. I still cannot get the phone to recognize the USB SD Card, it just stays on the Enter USB Host Mode...
So, I've moved on. I read that if I SIM unlock my T-Mobile US phone, that I can flash a 5.X EUR RUU, then flash a lower T-Mobile bootloader. I purchased a SIM unlock, and have unlocked the phone, but I still cannot get the phone to flash.
I have all of my drivers installed, and when I run the Update Utility, I get a connection error. So I unplug, put the phone into bootloader mode, and connect, ensure that the Serial changes to USB at the bottom, and attempt to flash, and I get Error 294, Invalid Vendor ID.
So now, I am unsure of what to do from here. Any help would be great. Thank you.

HD7 Half brick fix with goldcard

Hi, i have an half bricked HD7 and i'm trying to fix it with goldcard since i read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1417761
I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893152
I have the CID, i have the goldcard.img, i have a good rom and i copyed it to my 1GB SD card after i renamed it to SCHUIMG.nbh. Now i don't fully understand what i have to do.
At this point on the guide:
4-connect usb cable except the one for the wp7
boot your device into usb host mode(volume down + camera on Trophy)
and connect the last usb cable.
the screen of your wp7 look like this if all work.
This point is not clear to me, may someone explain better what i have to do and what should happen?
I have an Y-cable and a female-female adaptor. Please tell me what to do.
Thanks for your answers.

Google is your best friend.check this link out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10187622&postcount=1

Oh, really? Thanks a lot.
Did you read my question? I already checked that guide, and I don't understand the 4th point.

connect all the cables, except the phone (micro USB on the bottom of the phone)
press and hold volume down button with the camera button, then press the power button, the phone should turn on with a grey screen and blue text in the middle that says "Enter USB Host Mode" or something like that..
connect your phone to usb
your screen should look like the photo attached in that thread

Ok, i did everything as you said, and my phone was in "Enter USB host mode". After i connect it to USB it changes to "Loading..." and remains stuck there forever. I also tried with different card readers and different micro SD (always 1 GB or lower), same results.
Notice that my card readers don't have a flashing light so i don't know wether they are working or not. I assume they are working because the screen changes in "Loading" but for some reason it gets stuck in there.
Maybe I should change rom? I'm using a NoDo rom i found on an italian blog since i can't download the ones the xda forum provides, i always get the error "server is busy" or something like that.
Do you have any suggestion? I'm using this rom anyway:
ht tp:// uplo aded .to/file /dud fva8j
(remove spaces)
Edit: the rom i'm using is not a custom rom of course, it's the original NoDo.

hmm, are you sure the ROM you're using is the one for your phone, you know, if your phone is T-Mobile, you have to download tmobile rom... etc
and maybe there isn't enough power for the phone and the reader, try using your wall charger not your computer/laptop
and try asking a friend to download you the roms from xda, especially if you know someone with different ISP
hope it works

I'm absolutely sure the rom is exactly for my phone, and i'm using a wall charger (i also tried with computer though).
I'll try to download the roms from xda in some way, can someone give me a link to a working one? I tried from this list but some links say the file has been removed, others just don't work because the file sharing site is close and so on.

The ones in the link are your only hope, hmm, try pre-nodo if nodo didn't download, or ask someone to upload the one you want.
oh, if you have a flash memory less than 1gb, it could give you better results.. no harm in try.
idk, sorry, but I think that's all I got :/

[Q] USB Y Cable

Good afternoon friends! I have been trying to downgrade my SPL from 5.12 forever and I'm just about to give up. I've followed every instruction from every thread I have come across and I'm sure it's something wrong I'm doing. I have gold card and on my micro card and I've I believe that it is my y cable that's not up to par. It is recognizing the card and the phone but it's stuck in "enable USB host mode"! Does anyone have a custom y cable they'd like to sell? I purchased 3 different cables from Walmart, overstock, etc. and nothing is working. Im not handy enough myself to make one so the next option is to buy one. Please email me at [email protected] with any assistance. Thanks in advance.

Did you format SD to fat not fat 32? Worked everytime for me

This was an excellent step by step instruction and it seems easy but I am still stuck in Enter USB Host Mode. I have gold card, I have formatted the micro sd to Fat32, I've copied the SCHIMG.nbh file on the microSD and nothing. The phone just sits in Host mode? Any other suggestions? I am trying to downgrade from 5.12. Is there something I am doing wrong. My Y cable reads the usb card reader and the phone all fine but nothing is happening. I've plugged and unplugged a few times.

Backup files needed for pre Mango

I don't have access to a Y cable or goldcard, I'm on bootloader 5.12 and on TMOUS. I've tried the Europe_401 method but no luck, I am not SIM unlocked, nor do I know how to do so.
I've seen a method that can get you back to pre-Mango using Zune restore, problem is that I just got this particular HD7 and am not on the same computer as I was in the past when I initially did the update on my previous HD7. Is there a way to get a copy of the backup needed to restore from Zune?
Thanks.

Look mate, the easy way is to make the y-cable, I did it with spare parts and converted my TMobile HD7 to a European HD7..., I tried everything, even the MS tool and all are trash, the Y-cable is the only option.
remember 1GB microSD card, the Y-Cable, and power (whether it's USB from a PC or the wall charger)
if you need more help, I'll gladly assist you.

I actually stripped down a USB hub and mated everything together following some tutorial here. I got power to my SD card reader and to the phone.
I was using a 32gb micro SD due to me not having another. I put the phone in USB host mode, connected USB, then the phone said Loading for like 15 minutes.
I removed the USB, tried again, but only kept reading USB host mode...the phone still works though.
