[Q] Question about mango? How to downgrade - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok here i go so i recently got my hd7 and I upgrade to mango before i even checked the message boards to see if i should stay on the shipped rom or upgrade. after doing the upgrade i realized that i wanted to try some of the customs roms but i cant figure out what im suppose to do i have bootloader version 4.5.2250.0(129966) firmware 2250.21.40503.531 Please help me i just got the hd7 through warranty exchange from t mobile i use to own the hd2.
to sum it all up i want to know what way if at all possible to downgrade the rom version, and how to upload a new custom rom. I got lost in the hole NoDO firmware talk when i was looking up info so please point me in the right direction.

You need to flash an official nodo rom to downgrade the bootloader. Do you have a t-mobile US version?

[Q] HD7 - Basic Questions on flashing and unbranding

First, hi there.... i'm a newbie regarding flashing smartphones.... so please be kind
My phone info:
OS Version: 7.0.7008.0
Firmwareversion: 2250.09.11901.207
HW-Rev: 0002
Radio: 5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U
Radio-HW: A.102.0.D4
Bootloaderversion: 1.19.2250.0(111297)
Chip-SOC-Version: 2.2.5.0
Provider: o2 Germany
(HD7 bought via o2myhandy)
PreNoDo-Update is installed.
And here are coming the questions :
1. Correct me if im wrong but it looks like my HD7 is branded from o2. (i have the o2 accent theme in my design settings and so on)
2. I want to unbrand my HD7, to get updates directly and not through o2. Is that possible?
3. If that is possible, which ROM should i use to flash? (Is it useful to debrand my phone with an preNodo ROM and update it then through zune?)
4. Can i use the offical HTC ROMs, or du i have to use other ones?
Thanks!
This is exactly what I've been wondering too. The o2 search provider (Yahoo) on my phone annoys me lots and I'm fed up waiting for the 7.0.7390 update to arrive. Shall I take matters into my own hands!
Hi
I followed the instructions on this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988672
and have updated to NODO successfully
Please Note it seems to work with only HTC HD7 on O2 UK
I had an O2 UK and its seems to unbrand it to European version to get the nodo update
Do make sure you read the post properly again and again if you must , cause I made a few cockups a couple of times but got it right the third time
Thanks!
Whats the difference between the o2 UK and o2 DE ROMs aside the language?
I've also updated my phone and it worked flawlessly!
It's even now offering the NoDo update officially from MS, I presume because the phone is now unbranded.
Unbranding made a big difference to my phone, stripping the o2 logo off the bootup sequence and taking the crappy Yahoo search off IE.
Very happy with the improvement
Ok, i hope its not off-topic, but i there seems to be too many threads that got me confused ( some with deleted op )
I am getting a T-Mobile unlocked hd7, question is .. is there a way to unbrand and get NoDo ? If i do it will it get locked again ? ( i used unlock code to unlock it )
Please if it has been posted before, just guide me to the threads i should read.

Did you remove netlock? A unlocked phone will allow you to side load apps. T-Mobile wouldnt do that (its not legal).
I called mobile today to get my HD7 unlocked wil try this

[Q] to Ansar - ROMs with no NODO

Hi Ansar!
Can you post your ROMs without any update integrated? I ask this because without NODO Chevron is working and jailbrake can be preserved though official M$ updates.
I need HD7_HTC_Europe_1.70.901.0 without NODO to be able to sideload apps.
Another workaround is that you include Chevron and some relock prevention in your ROMs and update them to latest official M$ level before posting.
Is this possible?
Regards,
Cina.
You can use Rom with v.1.6.x from Here , when you have patch with Chevron use Chevron patch from Forum and now you can make all Updates and you will not Lose your patchd phone pn me and i will search tomorrow all Files i write from phone now

Hi!
I use 1.6 right now patched, chevroned and updated to latest. I have an issue of my carrier name probably due to radio version. Carrier signal should be "T-Mobile H" but it is displayed as "T-Mobile Hyyyyy". I know its not a big problem but it disturbes my a lot. With 1.7 I have it O.K. but I couldn't sideload.
Regards,
Cina.

[Q] Tmous HD7 Nodo update can I go for Telstra ROM?

Hi Folks,
I have a HTC HD7 Tmo US and followed all steps on this tread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001019
The flashing went ok, but sometimes the HD7 restarts it self without knowing reasons.
I found out as well on the page 18 on the same tread about the Carrier changed from xxxx.yy.zzzzz.531 to xxxx.yy.zzzzz.841, this means went to TmoUS to Telstra, Am I right? Because nobody confim it for sure yet! But seens to be!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001019&page=18
Now, I want to know if, since the carrier now is Telstra, can I also follow the tread bellow to update the ROM for a newer one with newer Radio, which I hope fixes the HD7 from restarting.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090845
On this tread, the radio is Radio_5.66.09 .21a_22.48.50.21U_NoDo_Signed_by_ansar
Mine is actually 5.65.09.11_22.44.50.15U
My question is: can I do it? Is there a risk to brick the HD7 TmoUS?
Have anyone done it yet?
Final questio: If I have a GoldCard for HD7, can I apply any ROM to my TmoUS?
Thank you very much for your time and attention.
Paulo Scorcci.
Hi folks,
Is there any one which can help me with this question?
I would like to place this tread on the Development session, but I have less than 10 posts and can not do it.
Thanks again.
Paulo

[Q] brand ,unbrand

May i know what is the difference between branded and unbranded any example of it? is it the phone or the os or something else.Need clarification.
Thank You
I second this question
still unanswered
Branded roms have the network/operator logos, settings and its been customized by them. Plus any updates will come from them.
Debranded is an untouched generic usually eurowwe or Asia wwe rom that's not been customized and is how it should come from HTC. So updates will come direct and a lot quicker.
HD7S Rom
Just ordered an HD7S and i know that it comes pre-installed with the latest Nodo Rom. I just want to know if it is possible to downgrade this phone to a pre Nodo firmware so that i can use Chevron to sideload apps like an HD7 or is there an Developer unlocked rom that can work with the hd7s and if so what firmware is it at?
does anyone have an answer to my question?
I have a hd7s too I have been able to flash custom rom on it but make sure you back up the stock att one. Oh and we can probably get the mango beta but it sucked on my hd2 not sure about hd7s. I would just wait for that to come out then downgrade to unbranded rom prenodo unlock and the upgrade to mango unlocked or maybe someone will make us an unlocked rom!!!!

[Q] Flashing another custom ROM

Hello
I am new to the Windows Phone scene. Last week I brought the HD7 at a decent price. I followed the guide and flashed the Deepshining ROM and I am impressed with it but I would like to try a few others.....
So my question is do I need to downgrade the phone to NoDo every time I want to try a new ROM?
I'm thinking of trying nextgen+ next
Thanks in advance

No, you do not need to downgrade. It safe to flash another Rom.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
u dont need to downgrade to NODO or any earlier version but however take care not to unkowingly update yr bootloader by flashing a stock rom
This happens if u update yr phone in zune or flash a stock rom that comes with the bootloader inside it
because zune updates come with bootloader
Updated bootloaders will lock yr phone and prevent u from flashing custom roms
