[Q] Custom ROM + Goldcard - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Rather than downgrading to nodo and all that stuff, is it possible to install a custom rom via a goldcard?
/Gordon.

I think it can... Because Custom Rom is still a ROM with no SPL... So try and report

[Q] Help restore stock SPL

Hi all,
i'd installed Touch-IT Rom, applying HSPL, just to have Mango.
I'm not really insterested in Custom Roms, and now that Official Mango is out, i want to revert to Stock NoDo Rom and than let Zune update my HD7.
I downloaded RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE.exe.
Can i launch directly this exe to revert SPL to stock, or i have to do something else to restore SPL?
Thanks.
EDIT: Restored simply by installing Official RUU in bootloader.

all Shipped ROMs are available here.
or you could just flash a Custom ROM, which is already Dev Unlocked, or better, here.

yes, Shipped ROM can be flashed with OSPL, as long as the vendor id's match.
phone can be half bricked if you try and flash RSPL/HSPL onto an unsupported SPL, yes.
if you want to go the Custom ROM route, i would...
01) flash a stock Shipped NoDo or Pre-NoDo ROM.
02) flash RSPL or HSPL.
03) flash Custom ROM with task 29.
04) flash desired Radio with task 00, if desired.

what is vendor id?
and how to know if that id's match?
also what is better,hspl or rspl?

well, if the vendor id's don't match, the flash will fail.
ie. flashing a TMOUS ROM onto a HD7 T9292 will fail, etc.
RSPL is a temporary SPL which will return to OSPL after reset.
HSPL isn't temporary.
both allow one to flash Custom ROMs.

HTC HD7 - back to "official" ROM

Hey Guys.
I've been using the Deepshining ROM for the past lets say 8 months.
Right now I'd like to get back to the "official" one, they were called "STOCK" ones, right?
I haven't been into flashing and so on for the duration I mentioned above, so I'd appreciate any help.
Which one should I download, to get the newest official one?
How should I flash it?
Do I have to flash it using the tutorial?
Where can I download the orginal ROM?
yes make sure u use a stock rom that is nodo version and below and a bootloader which is supported under DFT RSPL/HSPL
if u flash any mango rom that have bootloaders 4.5 and above , yr device is "updated" and u cannot downgrade again.

Just one question, if I use a custom rom and I don't like it, with the goldcard method will the phone go back to the original SPL without RSPL/HSPL?
I want to know before trying a custom rom.

The goldcard method allows you to downgrade the devices SPL. Which needs to be at or below 3.xxx to install RSPL/HSPL.
After the SPL is downgraded then you install RSPL/HSPL. Which allows you to install a custom rom. The custom rom is flashed by entering the device into bootloader mode then connecting it to the PC and running the RUUwrapper provided with the rom.
If you install only RSPL and flash a custom rom the RSPL is reverted back to OSPL after the flash process. So then to flash a different/new rom you have to re-RSPL the device and then flash the rom.
If you install HSPL then you just have to put the device into bootloader mode and flash the new rom.
HSPL is much easier and can be reverted back to OSPL by installing a stock/shipped rom.

[Q] Can I install dynamics v2.0?

I want to install HSPL to be able to install custom ROM dynamics v2.0. But, it says you should not continue if you have SPL version 4.xxx or 5.xxx. I should have1.xx, 2.xx, or 3.xx to install the HSPL.
I came to know another solution to the problem by downgrading the SPL using NoDo.
What should I do? Can i install HSPL after downgrading my HSPL version using NoDo? Will that brick my phone?
My plan is to use NoDo to first downgrade my SPL from 5.xx to anything that is supportedby the HSPL, then I'll install HSPL by DFT, and then finally install a custom ROM called Dynamics v2.0.
Should I go through the whole process for installing a custom ROM on my phone?
Do let me know if you want to know something about the phone like the OS version, exact SPL version, etc
Have you searched for it?
You must use Y-Cable and the goldcard method... It is written in several threads, I recommend you "noobs guide no android", search for it I won't give you any lazy link...
