Hey guys,
my HD7 seems to have some hardware problems (random rebooting etc). So I decided to send it in for repair. Since I'm currently running the leaked HTC Mango ROM (7720.68) I need to roll back to a stock NoDo ROM. Now there are so many ROMs floating around these forums nowadays, that I have no idea which would be the on to choose for my device:
HTC HD7, Germany, unbranded, not SIM locked.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
you can go here and select the suitable ROM for your device,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_HD7/Shipped_Roms
but be careful because you may brik your phone if you flash a wrong ROM
I think you should flash the last ROM which is the only one in the Mango Section

Thank you very much. I think I'll go with the first European ROM and apply all available updates afterwards. That should be sufficient enough to look like stock.

It is OK, as you like,
But keep in your mind that the Mango ROM is official leaked one and is stock,
My suggestion is to go with it if you don't care about chevron unlocking your device.

I have a developer account, so I don't need Chevron to unlock my device. The thing is, I need to send my device in for repair, so anything Mango like wouldn't be considered to be stock as the update actually hasn't been delivered yet.

I know some posters on these boards have access to some google signed roms. It appears that the newly launched vodafone uk version of nexus one contains the newest build of firmware - epf21b.
I was wondering if anyone has access to this build and wouldn't mind posting it here.
Thanks in advance!
Im sending paul at modaco a backup of my epf21b so he can make a fast boot rom for it. Is this what you want? shall i just send you a copy of it too ?

I would be interested in getting the radio image from this - on Vodafone myself and don't have great 3G coverage so would like to try "their" radio...
Does EPF21B have Chinese locale? If yes, I would like to have the passimg.zip too
Please send to me please!
Any chance of dumping the hboot.img from this ROM?
Does anybody search?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=678925
For crying out loud.
That's not passimg.zip! There's only update image which cannot be applied to locked Nexus one

My mistaken assumption: everybody with a Nexus would of course root it.
Sorry, I paid more attention to the actual post than the subject.
Root the damn thing and be done with it.

Ohh man, risk/reward wise it's not that bad... and you could always insure your phone for like $5 a month if you thought the risk was too high. You'd pay $5 a month for a rooted phone wouldn't you?
I saw that on this page: http://www.wpcentral.com/htc-releases-hidden-wifi-app-windows-phone1, HTC has released an app to find hidden wifi.
It's only for HTC for now I think.....
Nice info..!!!

The new app doesn't work unless you are on the March 2011 NoDo update. So unless until the cooks release the NoDo update for the HD2.
Trust me...already tried it!!!

Hello there!
How do you download and install this app? Thought you'd need to unlock with Chevron to do it?

Chevron is not required with the nodo updates. Use with the latest rom updates. If you download it, you have to use Tom's XAP installer to install it.
Looks like you have never done this before?

That'll be right! I haven't unlocked my phone for developer access so I thought it was impossible to side load apps without this?
Where can I find the XAP installer?

You can read all at this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912218
Before you use any program, you are better to look thru all the posts. You will find Toms installer in one of the forms. Read and learn.

Thank you for the link, very much appreciated.
It mentions about unlocking with Chevron which from reading a few news sites MS have been bricking peoples phones when they have performed updates with Zune. It still a big issue?
I am not necessary looking to completely unlock the phone but definitely don't want to risk balls'ing the phone for homebrew apps. I have unbranded which I'm very satisfied with but I just want to be able to connect to my home wifi without broadcasting it. But seems I have to run the risk of playing with Chevron, unlocking, and registering as a dev with MS to simply load one app. I'll keep reading and consider my options.
Thanks again
Am I the only one that can't find the app in the marketplace?
Just flashed a NoDo rom onto the phone today and was looking forward to being able to use this.

Rather than go into the Marketplace, go straight to HTC Hub and it'll be on the front page. The 'Download' or 'Share' options don't appear though.
Ain't in there either, bit of a pain that..

I think you have probably got one of the USA versions which are skipping 4.2.2 and are going to be updated to 4.3 before the end of this month. If this is the case, you are now running the most up to date software for your device.

thank you bro. ill wait till the end of the month then, before manually updating or tampering with my phone. although i have no idea what the 'bm' in bm_001 stands for, doesnt sound like any american company like att and verizon etc but hopefully you are right

Now would be a good time to s-off your device (completely reversible) before doing any updates which will prevent this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314582
Having s-off will, in the event of any problems updating your device, give you the ability to 'rebrand' your device to any suitable version and hence receive timely updates whilst still remaining completely stock if that is what you desire.

For me I was curious to see if this is like the treble ROMs that are out. There are AOSP TREBLE ROMs out that function quite well. One of the advantages is that we have a choice not use Google apps/services with the TREBLE ROMs. Just like the old days. Most of the custom roms out now are loaded with gapps.
There's even AOSP based ROMs with gapps in this section that have a lot more customations.
It's really about choice.

My wife is using one that has a locked bootloader. I tried everything without success. Then I gave up and bought the unlocked version and gave her the Verizon one LOL.

It didn't work for me in the US either I just flashed the full image from Google to get back to stock.

If you have fastboot then download factory image, extract contents to fastboot folder and hit run
If not download the OTA zip, load up recovery, sideload update in recovery using ADB
