[Q] HD7 ROM Upgrade failure

Hi, hoping someone, maybe Ansar, can help me. I have been unable to load latest ROM from the developer thread onto my HD7. Error 296 , needs a newer NBF File, is reported.
OS Version 6531.WM7_BldLab
(mojobbld).20100803-1911
Firmware revision number: 0.93.0.1
Hardware revison number: 0002
Radio software version: 5.45.56.18_22.18.50.06U
Radio hardware version: 2.22.0.D4
Bootloader version: 0.93.2250.0(105296)
Chip SOC version 2.2.5.0
Any help much appreciated, current version crashing, poor graphics...
Many thanks

Yeah thanks for the support guys.

How did you even manage to flash a Mojo build on your HD7?
Thats one of the early beta releases of wp7. Where did you get it from?

The rom you were loading to your hd7 was an early build of wp7, try loading an appropriate rom from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876451

Thanks for the replies guys. The ROM detailed above was on the device when I got it, but as you say its a very early build and very buggy. I have the device as a sample from HTC. I can wait for them to get me an updated version but that maybe sometime, so just wanted a quick solution if there was one.
None of the ROMs in Ansar's thread above seem to work, I have tried the HTC Europe and the Telstra ones, and O2DE, to no avail. Error 296 every time, "Upgrade Only, Try a Later ROM". Just wondering if there was a ROM out there that would work or some other procedure I need to follow. I am not technical.
Thanks for coming back to me anyway.

if you are not technically oriented, why would htc give you a "sample" device???

Er, to see if I would like to buy some?

you could make a goldcard and then flash a stock rom (real stock , not the modded rom's)
there are a view threads about goldcards so just use the search button

Many thanks I'll have a look

Hi,
I'm in the same boat az you are ! and I have the security unlocked sample of the HD7, so please let me know if you find any solution for this cause also I downloaded all of the roms in RMA and none of them worked with this device.
Thanks.

as long as you have RSPL or HSPL installed...
you can flash any HD7 ROM.
just remember, flashing a Shipped ROM will rid you of XSPL.

I am very pleased with the thought and don’t feel like adding anything in it.

Maybe you can try the gold card method it's the safest way.I'm on 7720 like yours(update)I use the goldcard and now i'm in 7004.

[Q] internet sharing missing from the setting menu on hd7

HELP internet sharing missing from the setting menu on hd7 os 7740

A) It may be blocked by your carrier.
B) You might not have the required firmware update.
What is your current firmware (not OS!) version? There's a hack you can use to bypass the carrier block, if you're on the right firmware version.

My firmware is 2250.50001.707

I used Deepshining v7.3 then flashing RUU_Schubert_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.23.707.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE and update to mango. Should give it to repair local HTC Service Center . Broken speaker. YOU'RE GREAT. Sorry for bad English

I never used this function.

Whatsapp your device isn't compatible with this version error

Hello,
I bought HTC Desire C from UK about couple of weeks ago and unlocked it using the IMEI based service so my dad can access it in India.
Problem I have got is, now I cannot install whatsapp on the phone it always comes back with the error "Your device isn't compatible with this version error".
Below is the phone information:
Android Version: 4.0.3
HTC Sense Version: 4.0
Software Number: 2.01.401.6 (I think this is ROM version and it's STOCK ROM because I haven't flashed it)
HTC SDK API Level: 4.21
HTC Extension Version:HTCExtension_403_1_GA_9
Kernel Version: 3.0.16-g34e63f6root"abm032 (hash)1
Baseband Version: 10.17.98.09H_1.19.98.02
Network information is all okay because I can see operator name, signal strength, service state etc.
Can someone please help me with this because I really want to install whatsapp in next couple of days before I go back. Thank you.
P.S. I haven't rooted my phone or anything and to be honest I don't want to root it because I'll be going back to UK in few days and my dad is quite new to smart phone so it will be difficult for me to do anything like this.

Solved
I downloaded whatsapp from whatsapp.com/android and installed the apk file and it worked.

same problem here. download-link at the whatsapp-website brings me to the play store. there appears same notification (not compatible with this device... )

Go to play store on phone not the website and install just in case your on a pc logged in on a different user and not the specific phone user account Google account. Strange your getting problems as it does work fine.
