I am wanting to downgrade my SPL so i can install an unlocked ROM on my HD7.
The OSPL is 5.0.2250.1
I have looked at many threads but am just getting so confused.
I have also tried the ansar thread but cant download the file from rapidshare.
Can any body post the right links for me to do the downgrade?
Im not new to Rooting/jailbreaking/unlocking devices But WP7 has me stumped.
what is your device's Firmware revision number and Bootloader version?

2550.21.50001.707
5.0.2250.1
you have Asia WWE...
if you are looking to flash a Custom ROM... you'll first need to downgrade your Bootloader.
OSPL is a stock locked Bootloader.
RSPL is a temporary unlocked Bootloader, which reverts to OSPL after reset.
HSPL is a permanent unlocked Bootloader, which replaces OSPL.
you'll need to downgrade your Bootloader, in order to XSPL.
i wrote a tutorial, link is in my signature.
refer to Step 07 or Step 08.

See bold print , and also I cant do the goldcard way.
you won't be able to use ansar's SLSPL, it is for Europe only. you have Asia WWE.
you needn't need the goldcard, only the method of doing it.
the goldcard way looks more of a hassle , Might just leave it.
Thanks for your help dude.
If anybody has ideas let me know.

Since you have HBOOT 1.13, just go to http://revolutionary.io and gain S-OFF on your phone and then you can flash any ROM you want. The process of S-OFF and rooting will not change your 3G bands. These are determined by hardware in the phone and nothing you flash can affect these frequencies.
is there any tutorial for this?, having the phone I can get s-off any rom without having to make a GoldCard? and finally after installing the rom, I can again have s-on the phone?, should be able to do OTA updates where s-on?
thanks for your help ...... and forgive so many questions, but do not want to fail in anything.

OK, here is a link to the official HTC Gngerbread 2.30.405.1 Unbranded ROM that has been rooted for you. You should be able to flash this from recovery and not have to worry about the modelid error:

It is only custom because it is rooted and the way you flash and install it. It is 100% stock otherwise. You will get the notification that an OTA update is available with this ROM, but if you attempt to update with the OTA it will fail because you have a custom recovery in place.

I just want to upgrade to your's intrinsic 4.0.1 T-Mobile US edition.
So... following the instructions under your signature, first i am trying to downgrade to a different radio with HD7_RUUWrapper_00 (Ex. 1.20.531.01 or 1.54.531.02 or 3.01.531.02) but the bar on my phone stucks at 0.00% and then i have the error 262. tried different pcs and different radios.
Is it necessary to change the radio before doing that upgrade?
And is it possible to make that update via zune? (i mean to copy your's intrinsic 4.0.1 T-Mobile US edition files at some specific zune's folder and complete then the procedure some-how?
Thank you once again!

if you have Bootloader 1.54, you don't need to downgrade OSPL first with SPL_Signed.nbh
though, you'll need to XSPL before you can flash a Custom ROM or Unsigned Radios.
i do not believe it is possible to do that via Zune.
You bring up the configuration of your phone
Now I wanted to know...
A. How to firstly unlock the phone KEEPING the same ROM. (I don't want to flash any ROM)
B. What are the possibilities once I unlock it? What are the things I can do with this phone...
Primary reason to unlock is games...I want to play lots of games...
(In fact, am almost on the verge of selling it for it being so locked down.)
Any help...

only way for you to downgrade SPL, aka Bootloader, is to Zune pre-Mango (i.e. NoDo) restore, here or this here.

Basically a ROM is the software that runs the phone... Shipped ROM is the rom u get when you buy the phone(I.e. How the phone is shipped from the manufacturer) and any updates you get officially...
The developers get their hands on these shipped roms and tweak them for the full potential of the ROM....such rom's are custom roms(custom made features)....in stock rom to install a xap u have to pay yearly for a developer account.....in custom rom it has been made free...

HTC One update with unlocked SIM
Hello everyone,
This is my first post on this forum and I apologize if the post is in the wrong category. And sorry for the android rookie questions, but I really need your help.
I own HTC One
I bought it with SIM lock
Phone has custom recovery (TeamWin) and it is s-OFF. I am not sure that I understand completely what this means but I found out this facts while reading this forum.
At the end, phone is unlocked (SIM unlock) by local service store (40 EUR).
I would like to update the software and OTA update does not work.
I would be grateful for step by step instructions how to update the phone software and not to SIM-lock the phone again.
My biggest concern is not to pay again for SIM unlock.
You have attached screenshots…
Thank you!

To receive and install OTA updates you need to have the stock recovery on your device. If you re-flash the stock recovery, you can install the OTA update. Once it has properly installed you can go replace stock recovery with TWRP.
I'm pretty sure it won't re-apply the SIM-lock to your phone, but I wouldn't like to say for certain. (Mine came already unlocked)

That's not true. Just have to install the stock recovery, then you can do the OTA update. After the update, reinstall either CWM or TWRP and flash SuperSU or Superuser to regain root. The OTA should not affect SIM unlock at all, at least it never has in my experience.
honestly it would be easier to just go with a custom rom since hes already s-off and custom recovery
OP. 2. options.
1. Flash this recovery, and hit the OTA check button. http://d-h.st/M4R
2. Download this RUU package: http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...31.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.exe

The important thing to verify is that your CID matches what the RUU is designed for. On either of those RUU's you mention, look in the comments section of the post and see the CIDs. As long as you have one of those CIDs, you can install it.
Also, if you look at the RUU version number (1.20.401.1), you notice the third number in the sequence is "401". This signifies the WWE (World Wide Edition) version, so it will work with the majority of devices. The .401 firmwares are what most custom ROMs are based on, and are generally considered to be the most compatible. I am running a .401 firmware on my AT&T device without any issues. So any RUU with a .401 version would work for you.

No, the version-main doesn't need to match. That is just the current firmware version you have installed. If you install an RUU, it will update you to whatever version the RUU is based on. The only thing, if your device is still s-on, you can't install an RUU with a LOWER version than what is shown in version-main. You can upgrade with an RUU if you are s-on, just not downgrade.
The important thing is to find an RUU that works with CID "HTC__032".
Hmm... both those RUUs are lower than what you currently have, so they won't run with s-on. If you really want to be able to run the RUU, you're going to have to s-off so you can run the lower RUU, then update with the OTA.
If you're not ready for doing s-off, you might want to think about just leaving it as is, installing a custom recovery like TWRP, and flashing a custom stock ROM like the ARHD Stock Rom. You can't get OTA, but that's alright because it already is updated. Any of the custom ROMs will work fine with .401 firmwares like you have. I would recommend this route over the s-off and RUU method, honestly, that's a lot of work for little gain, unless you just absolutely must get back to stock.
Anyway, hope this helps!

from nkk71' guide:
2) RUU.ZIP (Windows7, Mac, Linux): http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-zip-downloads/ <- this is now the preferred method instead of RUU.EXE
------> if you’ve found a RUU.ZIP proceed to post 3
