Verified on HTC HD7 3 Times (Does not Work for Half Bricked Devices)
Prerequisite: Zune No_Do Restore or any Restore below 7720 .
STEPS:
=====
1) Restore to No_Do restore point via Zune. (Won't downgrade SPL 5.X)
2) Connect phone to Zune and Updates 7.0.7392.0 and 7.0.7403 will be installed on ur phone.
3) The third update will be mango update, install it and once done SPL will be Changed to 4.X
NOTE:
After Mango update, while phone reboots, it will reboot twice, one for downgrading SPL and another to load Mango on ur phone.
DETAILED EXPLANATION (It is not Rocket Science)
====================
1) When you upgrade to MANGO (7720), SPL changes to 4.X followed by the HTC Update that changes SPL to 5.X
2) Restoring to NO DO or any other update (7392, 7403) does not change SPL 5.X, but the fact Remains that you have a Phone that can be upgraded via Zune.
3) Conscidering that we retored to No Do via Zune and SPL still being 5.X, We start upgrading and we get Update 7392 and 7403.
4) Next update is Mango (7720) [Zune does not change SPL but the Update installation does, especiallt 7720 and HTC Firmware update].
5) Since Zune is not supported to check or Downgrade the SPL, when the Mango Update happens on the phone with SPL 5.X, The update changes SPL to 4.X "Phone reboots twice after the update is applied one for changing SPl and other for loading Mango".
6) Next come HTC Firmware Update, if u apply tht too, u again endup with SPL 5.X, so u have to Stop after Mango Update and Then you can follow the below thread to flash Custom or Branded roms.

I am looking for a good custom rom before applying your idea
I think it will success
Wait me
if we don't have a no-do restore point, there is no way of getting it back?
sorry to ask such a dumb question.. but how do I know what is my SPL version?? and how do I downgrade to No_Do?
My bootloader version is 4.5.2250.0 .. but still Im unable to flash with a new ROM, as the task 00 fails on my HTC HD7 T9292, I have a windows 7 64 bit OS. It shows RUU is incompatible with my device,
I followed all the steps on the given thread, but the flash was unsuccessful, couldn't downgrade OSPL, or install RSPL or HSPL(that is required to get a new ROM rite??)..

No No Do Restore point and other restore points don't work
Can't we copy some files from someone else and make Zune think that we have the NoDo restore point? (Because I don't have the NoDo restore on my computer)

What do you mean by sayin "Someone else", if u saying nodo restore of another HD7, then no it will not work, all Phone have a unique CID.

This is what you posted on my question:
You have half Bricked your device.
---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 PM ----------
New firmware Update changes SPL to 5.X (Verified on HTC HD7 3 times)
Solution (Steps)
=============
1) Restore via Zune to earlier Restore point "No do", but will not change SPL below 5.X
2) Go through update process Via zune, u will get updates "7.0.7392.0" , "7.0.7403" and the last one will be Mango Update which will follow the Firmware update (that changes the SPL to 5.X)
3) Stop after Mango update is Finished SPL will be 4.X

Cool, got it, Unfortunate for me i did not explain that it does not work for HALF BRICKED Devices, Sorry bro for wasting ur precious time, sorry again.. Will edit the Post now
No worries, I am glad you posted what you did... hopefully others won't do what I did. I was not to worried about it till tonight. I re-did my contract and no longer have an unlimited plan. Now the deal works like this a 512 data plan, a 2GB, a 5GB plan, a 10GB plan.. it's now cheaper to go with Sprint from what I can tell. I like my Radar... better camera, faster storage, faster data, better battery life, but the data plan sucks.. give me 4G (Even though it is fake 4G) then charge me to actually enjoy it! WTF!!!!!!!!!!

Good day to all!
Sorry for this question, I know it is asked and discussed a lot.. BUT!
I have searched and searched over google and XDA and can't find it no where.
All the links are out-dated and on some forums they write that HTC Runnymede is the official stock rom and on others they say HTC pyramide is the stock rom.
So I am very confused now and besides being confused, I can't find any working link for downloading the HTC Sensation XL stock Europe rom.
I need to unroot my device so I really need the rom fast.
I already 'relocked bootloader', only need the RUU.exe to unroot and install stock rom.
Please help me out.
F4LLCON
PS. This one http://www.filefactory.com/f/2c6cbf04d4909b70/
plus the other one found on XDA do not work
I get the 'All free download slots are in use.You can download this file immediately by upgrading to FileFactory Premium. Otherwise, please feel free to try again shortly.
Retry Download'
error while trying to download.
Any direct links would be amazing

hi , at first , you need to know that Runnymede is the name of stock rom for Htc sensation XL ,and pyramid is the name of Htc sensation ( the first one ).
then if you need to unroot your phone you can follow the steps on HTCdev.com the give you the steps to unroot .
after that ,all the runnymede.exe doesn't work ,i don't know why ,but some says that because the compatibility or the boatloader is locked,anyway,there is a methode to extract rom from Ruu if you want to install the official rom but i dont taste it , or install the official rom flashable on the section developer ,i use one of the and am really satisfied ,it look like the official rom .
i hope it will help u

Thanks for the information about which rom is for what phone
BTW. I managed to download the RUU.exe I needed, link provided above in my post. (download time over 1 hour.....)
I locked my bootloader by using 'fastboot oem lock' in cmd in windows while connected phone in fastboot USB
Then I re-started my phone and bootloader was 'relocked'. Then I started up my phone and turned on debug in development (options in android) turned of fastboot in options somewhere in android, I think under power.
Then just run the RUU.exe and it just installed stock rom, so it unrooted the phone. REMEMBER you can't install stock rom on unlocked bootloader, need to relock it.
But after that I just unlocked the bootloader again and rooted my phone and installed CWM recovery and installed ICE COLD ZOMBIE. But draw something app in android did not start. crashed and phone was a bit laggy. I had backed up my android with CWM before installing ICE COLD ZOMBIE, so I just restored that and everything was fast again.
Hello all, I'm new here but have a moderate understanding of all your delights
I recently unlocked the bootloader on my SXL, then instaled a custom ROM.
I have searched on our SXL forum and have found a few links to the RUU for Europe but non of these links work for me.
When the official HTC ICS update is released I would like to be able to install this so therefore will need the original RUU. Im in the UK and my operator is O2.
Please could one of you kind fella's provide me a link to a download for this.
Thanks.

EARLY before flashing the Ruu, you were in stock rom? did you use the same version as the one you had ?
I just want to confirm one thing, do the Ruu works on all phones or not ?

No the Ruu's do not work on ALL devices as far as I know.
You need your region's rom.
Mine was EU, and besides that, you also need to relock your boot loader first until you can install stock rom's
But the good part here is, if you lock your boot loader - > run RUU.exe (any) and if your phone thinks it's a good RUU.exe it will start flashing, but if your device does not match the RUU.exe it will say you have the wrong RUU.exe for your device.
That's at least what I have read

This is a bricked bootloader, the only way to fix this is a RIFF box, you must pay for that...
you have no bootloader at all, the phone can boot but you can't install any rom, maybe you can try the official zune update, one update at the time and see if that fix the bootloader... I've read in other post that zune updates can fix that instead of the RIFF box...
once the bootloader is fixed you can downgrade the rom/bootloader with the goldcard method.

The RIFF box fix only cost less than $50, yes the FIX, not the RIFF Box, that's for technicians... not the average Joe, like US.
According to your logic: buying a new WP device cost less than $100? PLEASE!!!
But I think you are joking... right?
