noob htc dream for rogers help me put normal android on it!!

im about to buy a htc dream from canada thats fro
rogers network.. i want to unlock it and use it for at&t in the us but i hqve how rogers destroyes android .. im totally new to all this what do i do to get normal android 1.5 or 1.6 on the device.. again im totally new to this.. ive tried to research this and its so damn confusing i dont know where to start.. i dont need some crazy hero rom that doesnt work right.. unless it works snappy with no drawbacks..i just dont want rogers crap crippled android.. any step by step guide would be greatly approciated.. thanks

Step 1 read the other posts that tell you that you can't root the rogers phone with the new update yet.
Step 2 wait.

i read you cant do it because they will dissconnect voice and data but im not usuing it on rogers so why would it matter.. also ive never until now even looked it up on how to do anything to these phones.. and when i first started looking i found a bunch of stuff saying you can do it but it was like 2 years old so how am i supposed to know you cant do it now..

Do you have the phone now?
If you do you need to check your Build Number. If it = 1.89.631.1 146733 CL#94714....
Then there is nothing you can do.
If you haven't gotten the phone then if you get it from Rogers you get the above build and there is nothing you can do.
If you already have the phone and it doesn't match that build then you should be ok. you root and you will need to change the radio to the EBI0 radio. There is a guide by Haykuro some where on here to root and change the radio.
As for unlocking that is not really discussed here. You need to buy an unlock code or if you know someone on T-mobile you can give them your IME and have them ask T-mobile for the unlock code.

[Q] need help with roms and flashing?!

Okay so I've been hacking iPhones since the first one. I got my hd7 wen it was released. And I've updated to NoDo. Now...i realize this update kills chevronwp7. But I've been reading an reading all over this forum and its only half-clear to me. I have installed axebox and the update for HD7 rom unbranding. Problem: what rom do i need? There are so many and where do i get it?? I know i need the rom for the firmware before NoDo... I've been spending hours. Posting a thread is always last resort. Im not illiterate just not knowledgeable enough yet with this.
Thanks for any and all replies!

You'll first need to flash or roll back to an older ROM (either 7004 or 7008).
Then, you'll need to follow this thread

okay this is what ive been trying to do. i understand the instructions. but i cant locate the 7008 or 7004 rom. preferably 7008. i get the process though. thats clear enough.
i really appreciate the reply thanks so much!

Doesn't anyone know how I can get these roms? I'd think by now someone would have links posted and organized its been months... I need TmoUS 7004 or 7008...?? :/ I just wana flash and get this done! Thanks!

Um, tell me you tried looking two forums down to the HD7 Development and Hacking section?

thanks for your help!

Oh and I just read about needing a "goldcard" and a special USB cable? Is this someones misunderstanding? I thought "goldcard" was an update to axebox.

I have the same problem
For example this rom :
[ROM][UPD]RUU_Schubert_TMOUS_1.20.531.01_Radio_5.51.09.11a_2 2.31.50.09_Signed
How do I know that when i install it It will flash or roll back to an older ROM (either 7004 or 7008) ?
i wanna get back to jailbreak my t-mobile device .

Get on a PC and login to your windows live account and then check your contacts and see if they are there. When I first got my HD7 and set it up, it synched all my contacts. After I restored it and did the unlock and upgraded it, it synched all my contacts back and I didn't know it did and I ended up having all my contacts twice cause I had imported them from my similar card before realizing they had synched back from my windows live

Sorry for a quasi-hijack, but I too need help with flashing ROM's so it's highly related.
I've searched all over for almost a week, but I can't find an answer. How can you get into bootloader with unresponsive volume keys?
I've tried modding the registry entry for my phone so that I can move the HD2compatible EnterBootloader.exe files I found on this site on to my HD7, but they don't execute when I try to run them (I didn't really expect them to since they were compiled for WM6.5, but I tried all the same). Is there something similar for WP7? Or maybe does someone know how to launch the bootloader via code in an app (I have developer access to it)? I can't even hard reboot this thing without the volume keys working.
Thanks in advance!

Hello, i need help from you .About a week ago I bought a htc HD7 and i didnt know that i have a noon-official rom on my phone.I cant update my phone i always get the 80180008 error.In microsoft forum they sad that i soud take official rom and than update my phone...Can you tell me which ROM i shoud to flash .Mine rom ===> 7714.WM7_Main(DFT).20110808-0046...i need official Rom .Thank you.and soory if i post on wrong place

power off your device. hold volume down button. power on device.
what does the Multi-Color screen say?
pull battery to leave this screen.

RED SCREEN= PD29100 SS-BC (4K)
HSPL3.1.2250.0 (119314)
CotullaHSPL 0x07
TOUCH S1(v1.8,#1624)
GREEN SCREEN = SD SANDISK 15193 MB
Partition info -V211v413
Blue= nothing
White = serial

Is this a Tmous Hd7?
If it is. Here is the official nodo rom that will put you back on track to update through Zune to official mango.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183891
But at this point I'd just flash a custom rom to be honest with you. Already come developer/interop unlocked and most have additional themes added. I'm running the shining rom right now. Works/looks great and will have all the same mango updates as the official one plus a few more apps that aren't available in the official one.

No its not...its tMobile Croatia,now i have a tomato card but i can get a tmobile SIM card ...I hope that you know which ROM i shoud to flash =) thanks =)
Can you link me that ROm which you have ... ill try with it ..thanks on help :=) i hope you understand me good becausse mine english is bad :=)

Ok. Don't flash that one then. I'd still look into a custom rom though. The official rom would be in the hd7 development section. Not sure which one you would flash though. Might be tmo Europe not sure look in that thread.. Hd7 is called Schubert by HTC so that's how the ruu's are named. Changing sim wouldn't matter you have to match rom to specific hardware.

Yes i have a HD7 schurbert T9292 ,can i flash the newest mango rom?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1272497 thats look good ,its for Europe ..."You must have RSPL/HSPL installed"what that means?

That one isn't an official rom if it needs hspl.
Hspl is an unlocked bootloader that allows you to flash custom roms.
You already have that installed.
I would just flash a custom rom at this point. New custom roms have all the updates plus more apps that wouldn't be available otherwise.
Here's a link to the rom I use. He says it's worldwide so should work.

Custom tones have to be in zune with the Genre set as ringtone.

Just create a genre in Zune called Ringtone then give the tones you want to use the same genre. I just googled "make custom ringtone mango" or something similar and found an easy tutorial.

HTC VIVID - HTC Screen locked at boot

I recently (yesterday) purchased a VIVID (AT&T) to udgrade from Inspire 4g.
After researching root procedures, if found Hasoon2000's Vivid All-In-One Kit V 2.1 and downloaded it.
Unlocked bootloader via HTC Dev - no problem.
through toolkit, downloaded CWM 5.5.04.
Then, since there wasn't a whole lot of crystal clear (noob) procedure, I then watched the video on his link, and went to add adk manager, and perm root (what i thought was "rooting the phone". it did what it did. Then flashed kernel: holicakes 2.6.35.14.
Somewhere between here, the CMD began not recognizing the device.
I then unplugged, rebooted and got the HTC screen freeze. Re-booted several more times to no avail.
Next step was to begin investigating recovery options, but I had no backups!.
I'm now stuck.
Please help.........

Update: Going back in based on superguide to try a couple things.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836.

Relock bootloader then get the at&t RUU and run that from fastboot. I did the same thing, luckily there was an easy fix.

Will try.
Q: Which RUU is it. I looked at one post yesterday which linked to a site adn the RUU's for AT&T were Cingular, but I couldn't determine which one was for the VIVID, so I didn't go any further.
Thanks for the help!

Could you post a link to the RUU possibly?

A lot of things point back to cingular, there apns, etc. You can usually be safe in assuming Cingular is at&t.

I'll let you know how it goes.
Roger that on Cingular. And yes, they bought Cingular. Prior to that Cingular bought Bellsouth Mobility. Prior to that BM bought Cellular one. I've been with them since 1997 when phones were an actual brick....ohhhh....and the bag phone.
Alright gents. Thanks for the assist and I'll get back.

Apparently this is almost a given that will happen using the all in one toolkit if you really didn't do your homework first.
A senior member really should mention this to hassoon 2000 to ensure it really is fool proof. I rooted my Inspire last year (1st android) with no problem due to an outstanding video that was no **** step by step Barney style that a dumb Marine with beer induced alzheiermers could freakin' understand.
I'm going to review the below when I get back to work on it.

No as of right now it's not possible. I'm sure there's someone working on it since the HD2 is its predecessor and they both use the same chipset and are very similar in hardware, so there maybe a possibility in the future.

Really!?! WP7 has come along way since it's release and we will continue to see development on our device...windows 7.8 is just around the corner and so is windows 8.
Have you unlocked your HD7 and flashed a custom rom so that you can tweak and modify it?
I'm not sure when it will be released.. It took alot of time and work to get the HD2 to be able to duel boot and run Android on it.
If you can't wait and really don't like WP7 OS that much, then I would suggest to get the HTC Desire HD, which is basically the same device as the HD7 but runs Android OS or get the HTC HD2.

For the developer unlock program without the student ID, you would have to purchase it at like $99.00 for a years use and since you don't have a credit card that's probably not an option then.
To install XAP files your device does need to be unlocked to allow side loading of apps.
Flashing of a custom rom means to wipe and replace the factory OEM rom with a new custom rom that has been developed/created for our device specifically. There are many available that fully unlock our devices and allow for customization through registry tweaks and hacks, installation of XAP's and so forth.
Here's a couple of great custom roms for our HD7. Look them over and decide for yourself which one is best suited for you. There's more custom roms available also in the HD7 development section. I would suggest one that is running the Tango 8779 build as these will have the most features like export of contacts to SIM card, sending ringtones through SMS and so on.
Intrinsic rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1281482
Deepshining rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1271118
Nextgen rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1348710
To accomplish the installation of a custom rom though...you will have to follow Shadows excellent tutorial, step by step by downgrading you spl, flashing a non test, nodo or pre-nodo rom, Install rspl or hspl and then flash a custom rom. You have to follow all the steps or you can damage your device and brick it! If you need any help with it just let me know. Here a link to Shadows tutorial:

It depends on what your bootloader and spl are.
Put your device into bootloader mode by powering off the device. Hold down the volume key and power the device back on while continuing to hold down the volume key. This will bring you into bootloader mode a tri-colored screen. Copy down the information from the BL screen and post it back and I'll tell the next best step to go in.

Ok so you have a security unlocked bootloader... I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to keep that and flash a custom rom. What region are you in and what is your firmware numbers? Goto settings, about and more info

Ok. Well then you'll have to use the goldcard/ Y cable method. Unless you have a pre-mango back up in Zune. Meaning you updated your device to mango OS version and if so you still have the computer that you used to do it on.

The good thing is the Y cable is cheap and you can easily make it yourself and you need a flash drive or sd card reader. Here's a guide on how to do it:

Why in the first place you bought a WP7 device? I bought it because I don't like android very much, I don't despise it (that honor goes to the CrApple FailOS)
If you wanted Android, you should have bought any droid device, and you'll be happy.
Now, if you want android because of the "curiosity" or "experimentation"... Why you bought the HD7? the honor of running any Android version is for the Immortal HTC HD2.
Maybe you thought or somebody told you, that the HD7 has the same hardware as the HD2, which is true, the only problem and difference is the Windows Phone Bootloader.
The Bootloader, my friend is the one and only reason we can't have Android on any WP device... This answer has been repeated on these android threads a LOT.
If you want android so badly, sell the HD7 and get any Samsung, HTC, LG or whatever device fits your needs.
regards

nothing is impossible

No hard feelings brother
It's just out of my curiosity. I don't own this phone myself, though I do play around with phones, sometimes voluntarily and sometimes I'm paid to do so
One of my friends just exchanged his China-made Android phone with this one. Having known, and played with legendary HD2, I was wandering if people flashed it with droids already. And it seems like its not taken any step further towards the Androids
I should dig in further to see what others have achieved and what I can do, if I can get hold of the phone longer, though
I see xdrc45 and vivek555666 were heating this hard-ironed phone, what happened further.....
Lets all see, nothing is impossible, as they say
