[Q] DFT Mango Roms aren't unlocked - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi there,
I've tried some DFT Mango versions (7713, 7714) on my HSPL HD7 and they're both working great. Altough they're listed as unlocked, I can't install homebrew Apps. Error notifications like Tom XAP Installer's "Please make sure your phone was unlocked!" appear
There are a plenty of comments confirming the functionality of those Rom's, but in my case it doesn't work. Anyone out there having the same issues (and solutions) ?

The roms are unlocked. Try using Xapdeployx or Application deployment(Windows phone developer tools) for sideloading apps. Tom's xap installer no longer works with mango roms

Thank you for your answer
I've tried Xapdeployx and Application deployment, but they both tell me, my phone is locked. I'll look that up, too, but perhaps you can help me one more time?

I worked it out now. I downgraded from 7714 to 7713 again and tried XAPDeployX once more. Fortunately, it installs all my apps without any error thanks

"If you have any of the 0x89xxxx errors, please download the attached "vs_sdeprolightup-enu.zip" file and run it."

How hard is it to install the custom Rom on HD7S? I'm kind of worried with all this hspl rspl stuff I don't really get it! Can someone make a video or maybe a clearer right up? Also does the rom have wifi tether or eve usb tether?

Rom is unlocked, you have to update zune to version 4.8, after that you will be able to install apps

I've HSPL'd my HD7S but as far as I know there are no custom roms out there for the HD7S... am hoping someone will try before I risk anything!

Whats the point of HSPL the HD7S? Will this hinder you from receiving the official mango update on 9/23?

I was hoping that someone would cook a Mango ROM that is unlocked... but so far no dice.
My device is running Mango per the update thread that is knocking around... via Zune 4.8 beta etc rather than flashing a new ROM.

Is anyone working on rooting 2.03?

Well, Paul from Modaco isn't really keen on rooting the 2.03 since he is preoccupied with the new devices. I wonder if anyone from XDA is working on it.
Because i really want to use custom roms instead of the stock rom. Didn't like the HTC sense, because it suck up so much ram.
Hopefully, anyone from xda can give us Legend owners some answers.
Have you looked at this forum topic about downgrading HBOOT and RUU? The procedure is for the Desire, but it might work on the Legend too.
I have tryed to downgrad hboot by "The procedure for the Desire" ,but is't not work ,because it's only for rooted phone .
without root ,we can't downgrad hboot
without downgrad hboot ,we can't root
This method should supposedly work on any HTC 2.1 device. If that one doesn't, this one should.
EDIT: typo.
Thanks for the links, I tried about 30 times trying to get the loop exploit to work. Just never would show in devices in recovery mode, followed both guides.

Damn. I was sure one of these was gonna work, since they're both based on the HTC Legend OTA exploit. Just a stupid question, but do you have HTC Sync installed (I think it provides some of the needed drivers)?
I tried both methods on FW 2.03.405.3 but it seems like it does not work in this particular firmware.
device just won't be detected in recovery mode.
what windows version are you using? and what version 32 or 64 bit ?
i had an issue on my hero, i had to use htc 64 bit driver when it couldn't find the phone. I had to go to device manager and select the android driver manually...
yep. Both methods do NOT work with the Bell/Virgin Legend... Device is unable to connect while in recovery mode. Even tried updating/changing the driver... no go. (win7 x64)
that does not work at home either with the 2.03
"error: device not found"

Windows 7 x32 with latest HTC Sync from the website.
i read that if you try downgrading using an official rom from htc to 1.31 of htcs website or somewhere on the forum it will work.
once downgraded to 1.31 you can root and install whatever roms you want.
where ??????
it is impossible
it will work, only if you done the update over OTA. If you done it over RUU it won't work due to the bootloader being upgraded.

Just wait for 10 - 15 second after the device connect to PC, it always work for me. PC will load the driver first, and of course you already install HTC syn.
like i said
If you've done an update from version 1.31.xx.xx to 2.03.xx.xx over the air you can downgrade with the RUU file.
If like me you've used the 2.03 RUU file,well...your screwed,just like me
at this time there is no solution for it yet, and honestly, i don't see anyone bothering with it,trying to find a solution except for all of us legend users. I know that lots of us are attempting to follow every single root guide there is on the web, but the result will always be the same...no success untill a new rooting guide or bootloader downgrade possibility appears... it's sad dude
Did anyone try this method? It's a new method for the Droid Eris, but it should work on all HTC phones with Android 2.1. It's worth a shot..
where did you see that it should work for everybody?
i've been searching the threads and don't see anything about it.

[Q] ROM Flashing from PC on Mac - not working

I am trying to flash the ROM on my Touch Pro 2 before I sell it. I am running windows XP on a mac using Parallels 5.0. I have tried running the ROM update when active sync is connected and all starts ok then I get error 226 saying cannot connect. I then tried flashing straight from a newly FAT32 formatted microSD card and that jsut stocks on with a Loading message. So I tried flashing Hardspl, although I think that I have done this before when I still had a pc, but that failed with a connection error too. Any tips/advice anyone?
You need to provide more information. Are you trying to flash a custom ROM, and which one? What ROM are you running now? What version of the phone do you have/what carrier?
If you are still HardSPLed, the second line of text on the bootloader (tri-color) screen will say "OliNex", probably saying "SPL-0.85.Olinex". If it doesn't say this, the SPL is locked, and you won't be able to flash a custom ROM.
If you are trying to flash the stock ROM, I think some people have been having trouble doing so with the phone HardSPLed. But it may depend on what stock ROM. I am able to flash the Euro stock ROM just fine on my HardSPLed phone.
ok, i'll try to answer your request for more info:
trying to flash Energy Rom build 23699.
Existing ROM version is listed as 2.07.401.1 (80303) WME dated 2/4/10.
Phone is an unbadged HTC Touch Pro 2 as sold by Tmobile etc in UK.
Can't see any mention of OliNex on bootloader screen, so perhaps I didn't unlock= it after all. Certainly no T mobile stuff left on the phone now.

Don't know off hand what ROM that you have installed right now. What do the boot screens look like when you start the phone? Also, what does the bottom row of red letters say, when you startup the phone?
If it doesn't say Olinex on the bootloader screen, you are not HardSPLed. Either you never did it, or you relocked it.
Run HardSPL, and you should be able to flash from the SD card no problem.
Redpoint. Thanks for your replies and interest. I have tried to run HardSpl but this fails with a 260 connection error, even though Activsync is synced and connected. Id this to do with running a virtual pc on a mac perhaps?
Your welcome, hope my advice is helpful.
HardSPL is pretty finicky, even on Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems. I think running it on a Mac is difficult or even impossible. You can search the HardSPL thread and see if anyone was able to get it to run on Mac. I'm pretty sure I read different users on that thread mentioning issues with running HardSPL on Mac.
My best advice would be to run HardSPL on a friend's Windows XP system, if possible. It usually runs smoothly on XP, and only takes a couple minutes.
Yes, that confirms my suspicions. I will try it frommy partners windows XP netbook whenshe gets home. Fingers crossed.
Will let you know how I get on and if I need any more help!

[Q] Howto upgrade to Mango unlocked with broken SPL

I've been trying to upgrade to Mango and keep my phone unlocked but havent been able to do that following the information on this site. It is all so complicated and seem's to have many different ways blended together, most including ROMS. I'm requesting a simple instructions on upgrading my SPL broken (half bricked) Chewron-unlocked and unbranded HD7 from 7392 to Mango. ... if that's possible?
I've been trying to use U2M7720 but I cant run connection setup after upgrade, and phone is locked in Mango. I have a few backups of my phone and can go back to 7-29-2011 if that helps? (Tried to go there and update all the way to Mango, hoping it would fix the SPL, but it didn't.)
look here...
People I've made ​​it!!
"HALF bricked" True times ...
I have an HD7, and yes I had no boot loader more ...
My WP7.5 Mango has even worked ...
Have performed the unlock of ChevronWP7 Labs.com [leads,
then I've done with a backup (Windows Mobile 7 BackupV1.6)
and then by draufgespielt (WP7 Update Cab station) firmware (schubert_2250.21.50001.728)!
And then I have my HD and started in Boadloader un behold
My Boadloader is back! HURRAY
Is indeed not at all .... How COOL!
Thanks!
Thanks! I'll try this. I have all the files except the firmware itself. Still loocking.
Need a step by step guide.

[Q] Bad Zune OTA Update- Bricked.

Both a Q and a warning, as this was a new update.
I've had Mango for about 2 / 3 weeks (delivered through Zune)- yesterday received a notification of an update by HTC (There is chatter that this is the Wifi hotspot update?), which Zune failed to restart my HD7, giving me a bricked device.
Right now the device is powering on, giving one vibration to say hello, and then proceeding to give me 7 vibrations. I can reach both the bootloader and the recovery menu, but neither have been of any help.
This is what my bootloader screen looks like:
Code:
PD29100 SS-BC (4k)
SPL-5.0.2250.1(121000) MNG
MicroP(LED) 0x07
Touch S1(v2.B#1625)
SD SANDISK 15193MB
Partition Info v211v413
CRC is
Code:
BL CRC-0x7E63640E
OS(SI) CRC-0xB7077908
My warning is that I haven't done any ROMing on this device (it's unlocked and unbranded) so far, this was pure OTA- so if anyone gets this update in the next day or so, just be warned.
My concern is these flashing tools don't appear to support SPL v5. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this show on the road? Downgrade the ROM and go from there?
have you tried recovering with Zune back-up?
have you tried flashing a stock Shipped ROM?

Zune backup recquires to be able to go into the mode that Windows Phone Support tools needs, my phone gives the 7 vibrations before then.

error 226? unsure of what exactly that is.

No, this is the first time I've tried anything other than the OTA updates provided by Zune
Should I put the call through to HTC, or is there a way of taking back my SPL version so I can get a ROM on here? I've got SPL 5, which I can't find anywhere on XDA :S
Holy hell...was just about to get this update yesterday and just like that, decided against it...
Thanx a ton man...its been 2/3 weeks for me too with the Mango update.
Also, have U tried contacting the WP7 support on Twitter, which from my personal experience is quite hopeless and abject. But its also your best bet right now...
I've put the call out on twitter, I'll let you know how it goes.

In my honest opinion they are quite hopeless. They will answer as if they are obliged to you and they owe you something. Anyways, its a personal experience.
Any luck? Did u hear anything from the (abject) Twitter support team ?
BTW, my update went fine. Finger crossing does help
No reply on anyone from twitter. HTC email support sent me through hard reset instructions, which I've already tried. Should be on the phone with them tomorrow with regards to the issue, will update this thread if there is a way of fixing this.
Had two mates at work whose updates went through fine as well :| Probably worth noting my phone and PC (Zune) region is set to US whilst my ROM is most certainly the SEA one. Maybe something's messed up there.
would out what Error 226 is...
it is a 'file write' error, suggesting the image (.nbh) is bad.
i suggest a redownload.
also, that ROM is now publicly available.
perhaps try flashing that?

Thanks for your reply, getting an error similar to this:

Okay. Do you have any insight into how these ROMs are released? Is it a matter of capturing it off another device that has the update?

[Solved] Installing a custom ROM / Shipped ROM

Hey my question is the following.
Seeing as the Interop Unlock doesn't work for any HTC devices older than version 7720 I'm gonna try the following:
Restore a 7720 backup onto the phone, hard reset it and entirely start over.
Thing is, I dont own a 7720 backup anymore and I really dont wanna try flashing myself.
Question: Can anyone upload his/her 7720 backup from a European HTC HD7 (I'm Belgian btw) so that I can try this proces and hopefully get the interop unlock done this way without flashing?
I wanna start all over for the reason that my phone is draining my battery faster than a $20 hooker when the Navy ships come into port.
[edit]: If I hard reset now it will show up as a Mango phone with 8107 standard on it, which is NOT entitled to be Interop Unlocked, till Heathcliff comes up with something awesome!
[edit2]: In case you still have your 7720 backup available from Zune backup at this moment, you can find it under
"C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update", its the file that looks like "f3874e8d - c6f37f88 - c1504a27 - f0452346" that I need
[edit3]: I did read that backups are phone specific but it wouldnt hurt to give it a shot as I really dont want to flash
Any help / link to the backup is highly appreciated!
as you, yourself, said... back-ups are device specific. so, not worth it.
if the reason you want to revert back to a previous version is because of battery...
01. why not try a different Radio?
02. why not reset?
03. maybe try a Custom ROM? ...though that means flashing.

Well was worth a shot, what I had in mind that if i used that backup, I would have the stuff aka device of said person. Then hard reset and my system would be wiped clean, starting up with 7720.
01) I might try a different radio but I after searching a bit I found a few posts saying that the radio wont do much for the battery, well maybe a bit but not noteworthy.
02) I did try a reset, it starts up with 8107 then, and the battery IS fixed then... problem is, you cant interop unlock anything above 7720, which I kinda really need
03) I've read some tutorials about flashing a custom rom, and they all say to revert back to NoDo before even attempting it... thing is, I cant find any NoDo European rom (the links are dead). And even if I manage to find one (found just the one) its a branded one, while my phone is an unbranded phone.
Also that guide said in the comments that an unbranded phone is only flashable to NoDo with the goldcard method, which I'm not fond of using frankly.
So I guess I just have to wait till Heathcliff comes up with a way to interop unlock v2 mango devices
Thanks for your reply though!
01. everybody gets different results with battery... perhaps your device would greatly benefit from a different Radio. the great thing is, flashing a new Radio won't touch the OS.
03. did you see the tutorial i wrote? link in my signature.
also, i fixed all the download links on the XDA Wiki Shipped ROMs page. link in my signature, as well.

01) Ah ok, I might try the radio thing then, only difficulty is that there are so many and no real threads saying which one could be more beneficial than which. (I know much of this is based on the personal device instead of the OS)
Especially I just read that it wont touch the OS, which I initially thought it did in some way.
03) however I did see the tutorial and im inclined to try that as well. The only issue is that I would like to use the 7.5 shipped ROM if any but that leaves me with 3 questions.
--> I see the HTC HD7 non shipped ROMS section, seeing as I'm from Europe there is only one (the european one) non shipped ROM under Mango, are you certain that that is the one I need? aka does that work on my HTC HD7 for sure?
--> Which is the version of that Mango, is that the 7720 I asked in my original thread or is that an updated version, like 7740 or so? (seeing as it says "Test ROM")
--> Or would you recommend using the "Windows Phone 7 Unbranded ROMs (NoDo)" and if so, there are 2 European ones, seeing as I'm a total noob on that, which one belongs to my phone and why? (cause 1 says ROM 3.03 and the other 1.70 which is a huge difference but no clue in what.. :$)
Thanks in advance, the answers gotten have been very helpful so far!
[edit] The ROM I just asked these 2 questions about.. I'm sorry to say this but I can't download it for the simple reason that apparantly the download button wants to go to MegaUpload but that site has been thrown offline by the FBI as you propably know.
01. visit the Radio Wiki page, instructions are there.
03. only use Shipped ROMs, not Test or Unbranded ROMs.
what is your device's Firmware revision number and Bootloader version?

For the wiki link, I've found that and I will try this unless the ROM works, seems like a more permanent solution. Its propably some app using battery without me knowing so just wanted to perform a hard reset, which is impossible without my 7720 backup (for interop reasons)
What I didnt really get out of that topic and related ones refered to in that topic is if I pick a radio above the one I now have (the mango with tethering) for say a 5.51...radio from preNoDo, will I lose anything special, like the tethering itself or is that just a "title name"?
---
But I have an unbranded phone, wont it be bad to put a branded ROM on there or will that mather be erased when I hard reset after putting the ROM on?
Or am I missing the whole point of Branded ROM here, I thought that had to do with things as if you were a AT&T user or Tmobile user or summit cause I am neither of the above. As I said, first time.
It's just that on some threads for custom HD7 roms I've read that if you have an unbranded phone and want to downgrade: "forget it". Which is exactly what I have imo.
Firmware revision number: 2250.21.51004.401
Bootloader version: 5.10.2250.0 (132968)
[edit] I am that far (I know it's yet to begin ofc) that i've finally started the download of "RUU​_Schubert​_S_HTC​_Europe​_4.05​.401​.02_Radio​_5.69​.09.29a​..." file (the only European file under Mango, 7720, the one above Ethernet Sharing)
01. that is just a label really; informing where the Radio originated from.
02. 'Unbranding' is really 'Branding' to the Europe Shipped version. the Europe Shipped version, however, isn't set-up to a particular brand [read: carrier], therefore 'unbranded.' make sense?
03. you should be Europe branded... therefore, on that XSPL Tutorial, you should be able to downgrade your 5.xx Bootloader using Step 06's method.

Ok, that does make sense. Way more than the information I read on several other topics, wherefor thank you kindly!
I shall take note of the 06's method to downgrade my bootloader.
That leaves me with 2 small questions, there's a little section called "if RSPL'd and HSPL is desired". I have no clue what that is, should I just follow the steps and do as it says anyways or is that optional (refering to "if desired")?
And secondly, "38. download ROM of choice. Shipped ROMs are available, here."
I am downloading "RUU_Schubert_S_HTC_Europe_4.05.401.02_Radio_5.69.09.29a_22.50.50.21_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE.exe" which should be the correct 7720 ROM for my phone (hopefully?). By "ROM of choice", does that mean I can put Deepshining or NextGen+ on there as well or isnt that an option for my Unbranded HD7? (like they both warn for in their install tutorials)
Now that I think of it my phone is like you said Branded to Europe, which means they warn for "unbranded ROMs" like the one in your siggy's third link amirite?
---
But that aside, I thank you very much for the help, it's highly appreciated, now lets hope my HD7 wont brick on me and I'll be a happy man *moves mouse to the "Thank" button*
01. RSPL is a temporary SPL, which reverts back to OSPL after reset. HSPL is a permanent SPL, which replaces OSPL. so, if you don't want to go through the hassle of RSPL'ing every time you want to flash a Custom ROM... i suggest HSPL'ing.
02. with XSPL, one can flash any Schubert ROM, including Custom ROMs, yes.
03. unsure what you are asking, sorry.
Basically what I was asking if flashing the Mango 7720 shipped ROM works, if I could use this method (seeing as the tutorial says "Rom of choice") to Flash NextGen+ instead?
Cause in that tutorial (could be the one from Deepshining too) there's a line that says if you have an unbranded ROM dont even try to downgrade the bootloader cause that'll brick the phone.
But from the info you just gave me I can make up that my phone's ROM is not unbranded but Branded to Europe or am I that far off?
(meaning that I can in fact downgrade the Bootloader and Flash a custommade ROM instead)
[edit] being this kind of a noob and all I kinda got what HSPL and RSPL does, but what is XSPL? You've mentioned it in a previous post in HD7 General but cant seem to find any down-to-earth info. Its not in the tutorial either, unless XSPL just means Bootloader 3.xx or 2.xx, then I got it
So if i want Deepshining (aka custom ROM) I need to do XSPL instead of RSPL or HSPL? (XSPL, for custom Roms, I assume... means I need step 19 instead of 06 or run through everything from bootloader 5 -> 4 -> 3 to get to step 19 aka XSPL)
---
Summing up, if I want the 7720 mango I do step 06 and continue at 30.
If I want a custom rom for say Deepshining I do step 06 -> 09 and from then on every step till the bottom? If that's correct I got the picture
(Thanks for the effort here btw)
XSPL is basically ?SPL, meaning it refers to both RSPL & HSPL.
during the downgrading Bootloader process and the XSPL process, only Shipped ROMs can be used. only once XSPL is installed can Custom ROMs be flashed to your device.
does that answer your questions?

during the downgrading Bootloader process and the XSPL process, only Shipped ROMs can be used. only once XSPL is installed can Custom ROMs be flashed to your device.
does that answer your questions?

Well now you see how much of a student I still am, but yes I think I got it
Refering to your tutorial, I see 2 scenarios
* I want the 7720 mango I do to step 06 and continue at 30.
* I want a custom rom for say Deepshining I do to step 06, then continue with 09 and from then on every step till the bottom?
If that's correct I got the picture and my questions are answered entirely
hmm, well, i haven't ever actually tried ansar's SLSPL before... so, i can't tell you what exactly to do after using it. maybe report back here after installing SLSPL, then i can guide you where to go from there?
Ok I will, I'll start right now and see where that brings me, starting off with step 01, downloading Task 29 and 00. Then the SLSPL.
Lets hope for a nonbrick
Ok, I now have
Os version: 7.10.7720.68
Bootloader version 4.5.2250.0
I assume I continue with step 09. in your tutorial if I want Deepshining ROM or stop if I'm happy to interop unlock my phone now and update to 8107 through Zune?
yep, continue to Step 09 on the XSPL Tutorial.
Okiedo, next step
Downloaded "Schubert_Europe_1.54.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.29_22.32.50.10U"
Did steps till 18.
Bootloader: 1.54.2250.0
[edit] nevermind what I wrote here, continueing with step 30 seeing as you suggested HSPL instead of RSPL seeing as I read that RSPL voids waranty or summit.
What is the difference "DFT_HSPL_WP7FG1_INSTALL" & "DFT_HSPL_WP7FG2_INSTALL". I know its Gen 1 & 2, but which one do I have and how do I check or is it just NoDo = G1 and Mango = G2, in that case I have to launch G2?
two rar files..? if referring to XSPL, only need FG2 aka the latest version.
There we go, HSPL3.1.2250.0
CotullaHSPL 0x07
So now I have the downloaded and extracted Deepshining ROM, I have "RUU_signed.nbh"
I run Task 29 or the ROMupdateUtlity.exe (inside the ROM) and that should be the end?
[edit] every time Deepshining comes up with a new rom or I want any ROM installed I have to go through all these steps again right? Or can I just flash another ROM on there as I desire, aka an updated version of Deepshining for example?
