I want to flash older rom to my HD7 (want to install chev but only managed to restore to non ie-fix version with Zune)
But, I have trouble connecting HD7 with PC in tricolor bootloader mode
(serial always stays on, cannot get it to usb)
In device manager I can see that phone is detected as
Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM
but without drivers...
I tried to search for drivers but only get some samsung drivers (that does not work). I searched forums but haven't find that people have same problem with HD7...
What Am I doing wrong?
Win 7 64bit
Ensure you're connected to the internet when plugging in. The drivers are downloaded automatically from Windows Update.
I downloaded Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center for Windows Vista (64-bit) for HD2 and it works...

Hi all,
Sorry if this has already been covered.
Can anyone tell me if they have sucessfully installed a new ROM when running Windows through Virtualbox? My current OS is Ubuntu and from what i have read there are only limited sync functions with Linux.
Also can i install a ROM on a sim locked handset? My handset is in Orange UK, and i plan on keeping the Orange SIM in it. The only other handset i installed a ROM on was a vanilla TYTN so sim lock wasn't an issue.
Thanks in advance

Yes , I've mate bit in different setup i have Vista 64bit so i can't use it flash my TOuch HD so i used my vmware xp to flash my phone and it work fine
so i hope is should for virtual box too
If ActiveSync works in your virtual environment, then it should go smoothly. You can also flash your TouchHd without vbox. Just copy (in massive storage device mode which ubuntu should recognize straight away) blacimg.nbh on the memory card and restart phone pressing vol down button.
i think it should work

Yes. If you run HardSPL or USPL you can install pretty much any cooked rom currently available to your phone. This bypasses all that locking crap

Why can't you use Vista 64bit to flash? Mine works perfectly.
Thanks for all your help. I've installed ActiveSync (WMDC) on the the Windows 7 beta but can't get it to recognise my handset through vBox. Possibly a Win7 issue or just my set up. I'll create a Vista box and try that.
@ Sidewinder - Can you run the HardSPL from flash or does it need ActiveSync?
Thanks again
I want to bring up the old topic because I have problems attaching my Touch HD to VirtualBox guest OS.
My host OS is Windows 7 and guest OS - Windows XP SP3.
HTC storage works pretty well I I'm selecting Disk Drive after connecting my device to PC.
ActiveSync also works well in my VBox. In that case I'm selecting Devices-> USB Devices -> Generic NDIS. The phone disappears from Host OS and appears in VirtualBox. Active Sync recognizes it and everything's OK.
But if I want to flash my phone I need to press vol down and then power on. After doing that I'm connecting my phone to PC. Host OS recognizes it as Qualcomm device. Serial changes to USB on my phone.
And then I'm trying to add that new USB device called "Qualcomm .. something" to vbox. When I'm doing it - vbox guest OS screen freezes and nothing happens.
Any ideas how to solve that? Do I need to install HTC drivers (modified drivers) for my Windows 7 host OS?

My PC is now mine. It is in domain and controlled by AD and GPO and bitlocker is ON. So I can't press F8 during boot to select "disable driver signatures". So the only option - flash it from Virtual machine in my case. Unless flash it from SD card (which I don't like).
Made a quick guide on how to flash your phone using Windows XP mode on Windows 7. ( For People that cant do it on there Windows 7 due to driver problems )
1. Download Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx
2. Install first Virtual PC then take a reboot and install Windows XP Mode.
3. Do a Windows Update on the Windows XP Mode, and make sure that .Net framework is installed.
4. Download Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/activesync-download.mspx
5. Connect the phone to the computer , once that is done you can click on the USB menu above your Windows XP Mode.
6. Attach the devices that you need by clicking on them. (Make sure that the phone is in the bootloader if you are going to flash it)
I have tested it on my phone a couple of times worked every time.
Hope it might help someone as it helps me a lot
Thank you Giland
But i have anther way i tried it on Window 7 pro 32b which is
1- Reboot your HD device on the bootloader
2- plug the Cable till you see the USB written in the bottom of the screen
3- you can Flash your HD now

yah been doing this since 1st time loading cooked rom into my HD
Thanks for your guide Giland, but I've been using Windows 7 and used same method as described by mezolezo, i.e.
1- Reboot your HD device on the bootloader
2- plug the Cable till you see the USB written in the bottom of the screen
3- you can Flash your HD now
Also the Dummies Guide also provides a detailed step-by-step guide for flashing including how to downgrade drivers for Windows 7 so 'usb' is displayed in bootloader
Still I appreciate your efforts and hope to here more from yourself
Thanks

Using windows 7 64b and i just make an active sync connection and use the given software with the roms... Only had driver issues while Windows 7 was stil on earlier RCs.
You don't need do that! Simply boot windows 7 using disable driver <something> lol! Update drivers and flash! I use this method and i never have problems!
What do you mean with upgrade driver?
Where can I find the driver?
This my friends it is very very complicated.I am sure it is working but..
If you have windows 7 install windows mobile device centerr,plug in your HD and FLASH.OR you may copy the BLACIMG.NBH to the card and FLASH.
NO NEED TO OVER COMPLICATE YOUR LIFE.
Thank you anyway for the tutorial.
Was just a test since @ work the mobile center wont work no mater what i try.
So i found this complicated way to do it and its working
I did not want to offend you in any way,i am using windows 7 for a long time now and always flashed using Windows mobile center.
I plug in the HD. When asken select the Active sync mode, then start the RUUWrapper and tihs is it, the rest is his job.
And it worked always.
But i still preffer the card method.
found out my problem here , guese what it was forefront anti virus that did it all
I just disabled it and then i reinstalled the Windows Mobile Device Center.
i simply flash my rom on my windows 7 ultimate as i used to do on Vista. Why bother complicating one's life
USPL 2.5 and Windows 7 Ultimate
I only flash via USPL 2.5 and I haven't been able to flash in windows 7 ultimate I have tried all the guides and have not been successful, I came across this guide thought I found some information that would really help me because I also set-up this virtual PC on my machine, only to find out that there is a lot of different ways to flash my phone in Windows 7, so my question is this
1) Is anyone of you guys Flashing using USPL2.5 in Windows 7 Ultimate?
2) If YES, could you explain to me how get it working on my machine?
Thanks.
Hi,
I am trying to use activesync with:
1.-STOCK X1a from rogers
2.- Windows 7 x64 ultimate
3.- Windows Mobile device center 6.1.6965
Windows do not recognize the X1 in activesync mode ( even without the check in advance) and it does not work as a disk device.
What driver should be use by windows 7 for the x1a? is there an how to describing the procedure I should follow?
regards,
Daluv
Weird.
I have Xperia X1i and i'm using Windows 7 64-bit Professional edition.
When I connect my device to the computer, windows 7 recognize an unknown device & will check online for drivers & install them immediately.
But maybe you should connect your X1 & run Windows Update, maybe this will help
Already tried that. thanx.
can you show me a device manager screenshot with the x1 selected?
thanx
hence why I am looking for a more formal approach to make sure every step is fine...

also don't have any issues with
1.-STOCK X1a sonyE generic
2.- Windows 7 x64 ultimate
3.- Windows Mobile device center 6.1.6965
could be the usb drivers on the pc
one thing you could try is if the pc have bluetooth to see if you can activesync over that

seem to work over bluetooth.... how would I solve the usb problem?
maybe look for new drivers for your motherboard on the manufacturers site or the manufacturers of the chipset the motherboard use
of cause after you verified that windows mobile device center->mobile device settings->connection settins
got usb checked on
yeah usb is check on in windows mobile device center.

Sorry for late response, but are you using a custom rom or is it running on official rom?
If you're using a custom rom with HTC Sense/Manila on it, U might check which USB connection type you have.
stock ROM from rogers.

mhm..Weird.
Have you tried it with another computer?
Maybe a non 64-bit windows?
does work with a 32bits XP.
even simple USB disk acces in windows 7 64 bits does not work. So the USB driver going crazy is possible. Cant find any USB driver. for my machine and I am unable to locate what chipset that machine is using..

That's exactly what is you issue. You need the drivers for your motherboard chipset to get everything working correctly, and this can be a big issue on Seven 64 bits. This is the main reason why I had to use Seven 32 bits (changing my pc was not an option at the time I bought my Seven licence).
Ok i will try to solve that first. thanx.

OH yeah I don't love Dell neither.
But did it work with Vista 64, because Vista & W7 should work (almost) the same.
But most PC does have 2 USB slots in the front of their tower & 4 at the back.
Did you try one of the 4 on the back side?
If it doesn't help, I would say, maybe you should install & another OS besides W7 64-bit
cant change my work PC... I only use linux at home so I have 0 problem.

Hi all I'm new to this so if I am asking the obvious then forgive me.
I have been using a KJam for ages and have just bought a MDA Vario III and for the life of me I cannot find drivers for either of them to sync to my Windows 7 64bit laptop. I have tried the HTC site, O2, T-mobile and google searches to no avail.
Once I can find the drivers I can change the awfull O2 rom version that is installed on the MDA and get my contacts and other stuff off my Kjam
Thanks to anyone prepaired to help
Just install WMDC from the M$ site.
I have installed as suggested but windows only finds a generic serial device and a message that windows failed to find the device driver.
When Windows Mobile Device Center is run it just tries to connect but eventually gives an ERROR message
I am running Windows 7 64 bit on a Sony Laptop
any help would be very welcome
Cheers

maybe installing mobile device center for win7 or activesync for XP
i have windows 7 64 bits and i have mobile device center 6.1 instaled and still the same, i can connect to the phone when is on in windows mobile, but when i switch to the tri color bootloader windows doesn't recognise him... it may work if i tray to force the driver from the windows (selecting manualy from windows drive center)?
p.s. i want to do a task29 but the program doesn't find my phone after it's boot in tri color bootloader
I have the same problem. You use NAND Android before WinMob? I think the problem in this!
no, i haven't use(it had the original rom), but i have manage to istal android on my x1 without task29 and it's run ok on it
the easiest solution is to use the windows 7 update driver search
plug your phone
go to boot menu (three colors menu)
the windows will try to recognize the driver but it will give u red x
just hit obtain driver from windows update center
