Hello,
I want to unlock my phone HTC HD7. I've read a lot of threads regarding unlocking and as far as I understand, i need to downgrade my os to version 7008 ( my current OS version is 7392 ). I'm completly new at this so I wanted to post my phone specification so that someone could direct me, so that i don't mess anything up. I'm affraid of bricking my phone so please help me out.
My phone specs:
Model: HTC HD7 T9292
OS version: 7.0.7392.0
Firmware revision number: 2250.09.16901.207
Hardware revision number: 0002
Radio software version: 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U
Radion hardware version: A.102.0.D4
Bootloadrer version: 1.69.2250.0(117833)
Chip SOC versionL 2.2.5.0
DIM : PD20100 5VDC == 1A
I don't know what kind of ROM i have and I don't know where to check what it is. I've tried unlocking my phone with ChevronWP7 unlocker, i've installed the sertificate, but the unlocker doesn't recognize my phone.
P.S. Is there a way to unlock my phone with the current OS version on later, or do i nessesarly have to downgrade it first?
your bootloader is below 4.x (1.69) so you can flash whatever custom wp7 rom you want after having h/rspl your phone (go there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295068)
chevron is working (with many conditions) on 7004/7008 roms only...so i suggest you to flash custom roms, should be more easy...
you will learn more about rom specificities there : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876451
yes your bootloader is below 4.x, so you dont have to downgrade your HSPL....
but first you have to goto bootloader screen and check you model number !
and see if you can install HSPL from cotulla, if your model is not supported by cotulla HSPL then you cant do anything, like me, wait and prey cotulla releases more support

I also need help!
Dear friends! I also newly bought HD7 and I downgraded my version from 7390 to 7004. Now, I have no idea about how to unlock it! I checked this website but I am really confused... Which programs should I have and what is the process for unlocking? Could somenone post step-by-step instructions both for me and our other friends? We are new to this mobile so your help will be appreciated. Thanks for your understanding and politeness...
Here are the specs of my HTC HD7:

hi gargamel35
i dont think you had 2 downgrade as your v7390 shouldnt have bootloader higher then 4.x... but any way,
first boot into bootloader and check model mids number?
step 1 check to see if your phone will accept Cotulla HSPL, if NOT you cant do anything !
cheers

Thanks jhonny for your help but I have no idea how I can do the things you told me. I am totally new to this subject, as I told you before. I will be glad if you can write down the step-by-step instructions. I have no idea about HTCs since I have always used Apple products. Thanks a lot...
ok
first turn off the phone
once phone is off ... press power button and volume down
you should then enter bootloader screen... tri colour
tell me every thing you see there?

Thanks for your help, my friend. If you can give me the download links to HSPL and custom rom (I also don't know how to install them) I will download. There are lots of HSPL links and I am confused again. I am really sorry for taking your time but I am TOTALLY NEW. Thanks for your patience and great help...
PLEASE READ MY NEXT MESSAGE - THIS ONE IS NOT IMPORTANT ANY MORE!!!
Now I have HSPL on my HD7 and I am trying to install Ansar's Schubert 1.69 unlock package. (check: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16297399#post16297399). But I can not pass to the U2M7720 installation since I use Windows XP and I can not install APPLICATION DEPLOYMENT on my computer (it is included in SDK 7.1 for Windows 7 and Vista and it is only designed for these 2 operating systems. Unfortunately, it is not compatible with XP).
So, my question is, what is the substitution for APPLICATION DEPLOYMENT that runs .xap files? I have to deploy U2M7720 to continue unlocking my HD7. I need your help guys! Thanks...

hi erezhavida
you get that error msg when rom is wrong region
you have to find earlier rom for your region
your Firmware number :2250.21.51003.206 last number...206 is your region
look for older stock rom ending in 206
try that....that should then downgrade your HSPL

hi...
I recently bought a new hd7 but while downgrade spl i half bricked my phone.
But using the goldcard method i was able to re alive my phone again.
you first see that what position is in your boot loader screen then you will use next methods. This goldcard method is for half bricked set where you will not see any serial option in bottom.
Your can use your device but can,not install rom anymore.

right i flashed the RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.60.401.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE because in the rspl software there is a version for this spl
then you do rspl then you do hspl then you flash nextgen thats what i did what all worked fine for me

so here's my question then !! The preNodo method only works with unbranded devices ??? like it won't work with a Tmobile HD7 USA ???
The Tutorial thread explains what needs to be done in the clearest way, if you haven't read it, check it out
Basically, if you have a Pre-Nodo backup in Zune, it shouldn't matter whether you've got a Branded or Unbranded device. If you don't have a pre-Nodo backup, and you're device is Branded and on SPL 5.xx (which from what i'm reading, your's is) then the easiest way to donwgrade SPL (and therefore have the ability to get a custom ROM on your phone) is to use this GoldCard method.

thanks,,,that made things clear...so since I currently have the 7720 ROM on my phone and the last backup is of December 1 2011...is it safe to assume that its NODO or Pre_nodo ?? Cos if it is I might go ahead with it...for some reason Goldcard method looks more vulnerable to bricking the device...(opinion)
Well i guess it depends when your device was updated to NoDo. I think it came out early last year didn't it? Like March/April? So a December 2011 backup is likely a post-Nodo backup and therefore you won't be able to use it.

about your last question...
yes , there is a way to repair the device that has been bricked!
it's like flashing computer mainboard's bios , if it's not even loading it can be programmed again! but unfortunately i haven't been able to find see how they do it.

Hi xda-developers community,
sr if this question is anoying but i tried to find a answer for it but the only things i was able to find out that some errors occured. But not if Succes or Failed.
I want to developer unlock my HD7 via custom rom.
Here are my System Infos:
OS Version: 7.10.8107.79
Firmware: 2250.21.51101.401
Hardware: 0002
Bootloader: 5.11.2250.0(134578)
Chip-SOC: 2.2.5.0
I have noticed that the bootloader is my main problem. I first need to downgrade. Problem no Synco Save via Zune (damaged HardDisk).
So is there any actual way to successfully downgrade my HD7 to a version to be able to install a Custom Rom?
And another question is, when really accomplished to flash a custom rom, is it possible to update via Zune or does this recover to normal rom?
Thx for ur advices to a noob with WP7.
nice regards Synergi
Damn sr pls if a moderator could be so friendly to add a Title to my Thread i forgot to add this.
thx
is the first link in my signature. wrote a tutorial.
press edit button to edit a post and it's title.
that tutorial helped me out too....just follow it and u have a unlocked phone!!!
welcome to customization
Thx for Link, but before i proceed i need a little bit more information pls.
1) For what i need to download task 00 & task 29? In ur tut they are never used again? Or did i missed anything?
2) Next is in ansar.ath.gr's tut he tells not to install after downgrade a custom rom with 5.10 Bootloader. Is this ment to if i install a stock ROM with this version that downgrage would loose because i install this bootloader again? (sr for bad english)
3) difference between RSPL & HSPL. as i read the RSPL is only active until restart and the HSPL is fixed. So with the RSPL i can try if everything works correct and the Cook it with the HSPL is this correct?
4) What kind of customs roms can i use for a HTC HD7 Europe/Austria A1???
Thx for ur advice.

he says to not install a 5.xx ROM so you avoid putting yourself in the same position you were in before.

Hello XDA Community,
i need a little bit ur help x) As usual.
I followed ansars Guide to downgrade my spl. This worked successfully. Tricolor screen says:
PD29100 MFG SS_BC (4K)
SPL-1.57.2250.0(113571)
MicroP(LED) 0x07
TOUCH S1(v1.8,#1624)
When RomUpdateUtility finished an error occured which said that a file is curroped. But Phone rebooted successfully.
First Question was this just a tiny bug or went sth wrong?
Secound Question is: I wanted then to continue installing custom ROM. I used DFT_RSPL to get rspl to flash unsigned custom rom. DFT successfully run trough but phone didn't reboot and no RSPL still SPL. And HSPL cant continue. So my problem is i cant get RSPL to work. What am i doing wrong?
nice regards

i hadn't ever used ansar's SLSPL before...
i suggest flashing Shipped pre-NoDo or NoDo ROM for your device.
maybe will 'fix' whatever went wrong with SLSPL.
ok thx. actually im downloading pre-nodo 1.54 Europe SPL. Sadly Rapidshare free is actually really slow 30Kb/s
When finished downloading i will try to flash this Version over Ansars and then RSPL -> to flash custom ROM.
Thx for ur advice.

welcome, hope it solves the issue.
Success !!!
After ansars SPL i just had to flash a stock ROM. I choosed PRE-NODO 1.54 Europe and then i was able to RSPL and finally flash a Custom ROM.
Really thx for all ur help.
What im now interested in is, which is the best Custom ROM? Or better asked which is not the best, but which should I prefer?
I want as many possibilities as possible.
Actually im having DeepShine Custom ROM active but i want to look trough of the top to make a decision which i will take for further use.
Can someone maybe tell me which is his favourite and why?
And another question is -> whith the custom rom installed am i able to update via zune or shouldn't i do that? (If not how can i sync with zune and prevent zune to update my phone)
nice regards Synergi
As i now read through a little bit of the custom roms available, i think i will go with Nextgen+ It sounds like a good work for me x) If u have any other suggestions pls let me know thx

Custom ROM choice is all about personal preference.
the top Custom ROMs seem to be:
in alphabetic order: Deepshining, Dynamic7, intrinsic, NextGen+
As i have now the Custom ROM NexrGen+ active i have a problem again x) As usual sr XDA Community.
I cant cumunicate with my pc.
Windows 7 x64
Installed: WMDC, CoreCon2, Zune
The System recognizes that a Windows Phone 7 is plugged in but can install the drivers for it.
Any solution for this?
Nice regards

what drivers are you referring to?
Sr for my bad english. It's not actually the drivers. In German its called "Gerätesoftware" i think its device software. Windows tells me that he wasn't able to install the device windows phone 7.
Hi Folks. I will be getting a HD7 tomorrow. The HD7 is from Bell network (Canada). I would like to change the display to Chinese. I am completely new at flashing rom stuff. What file do I need and what steps should I take? Also the phone is locked to Bell, how do I get it unlocked? if I flash a Asia rom, is it unlocked automatcially. Thank you!

You'll have to SIM unlock the device to get it to work on your network carrier. There are online sites that charge a small fee and will have your device SIM unlocked in a couple hours to a day. Unfortunately flashing a rom won't SIM unlock the device.
When you get the device go to - Setting - About - More - this will give you the devices Bootloader version, Firmware Revision Number, Radio version and other information such as OS version but those are the important ones you'll need.
The last 3 digits of the Firmware Revision # will give you the network carrier that it's locked to for sure. Bell Mobility = .666
Since its Bell carrier you'll need to download a Bell Mobility Pre-NoDo or NoDo rom to downgrade the SPL and use it with the goldcard method to downgrade the SPL.
To flash a rom you'll have to follow these steps -
1. Downgrade the devices SPL to at or below 3.xxx (which is required to install RSPL/HSPL)
2. Install RSPL and HSPL = Flashing XSPL
3. Flash a custom rom of your choice.
Just follow Shadow's tutorial on downgrading SPL, flashing XSPL and installing a custom rom -

i managed to enter the tri color screeen and saw following info.
pd29130
spl-2.16.2250.0 (117476)
......
does it mean that my phone's spl is 2.16 and downgrade is not necessary?
thanks again .

Luckily yes!
You just have to download and install RSPL/HSPL while the device is in bootloader mode.
Read through the DFT XSPL post carefully to avoid damage to the device.
Then download and flash the custom rom of your choice while the device is in bootloader mode

Before you start trying to flash the device... Make sure you have ActiveSync install for windows XP or windows mobile device center for Vista/7 on your PC, this allows for the proper drivers to be installed. Then you'll want to plug the device into your PC into and let the drivers install. Once that's done put the device into bootloader mode and connect it to the PC again and it will install the Qualcomm drivers. This will change the white section in bootloader mode from "Serial" to "USB" and now your ready to start flashing!
i downloaded tried to run xspl following the link but the it says my hd7 model ID is not supported. Mine is a bell hd7 ( just unlocked using codes order online) with information as
PD29130
SPL-2.16.2250.0
......
error msg when running xspl:
[Error Description]:

Your device is supported use the Newest version Revision #3 here -
http://htcfanboys.com/download/cotulla/?action=view&file=2942
As far as the rebooting I'm not sure....that can be caused from multiple things. Hopefully after flashing the device it will take care of it.
When in bootloader mode is there any other information displayed on the screen?
Other than
PD29130
SPL 2.16.2250.0

thank you so much for the info. i will try it when i get home. the rebooting problem seems to have lessened after sleeping on it for a night. it's strange though. anyway, i will try to flash the rom to see if it elimates the problem.
yes, on the tri color screen, it shows other lines as well which i don't have a club what they are.
i will let you know what's going to happen .tks again.
it still didn't work. phone is recognized but there isn't 2.16 spl so i choose 2.10. it didn't work, then i tried 2.56 , it still didn't work. after the sussful msg, i took out the battery and then restart the phone going into tricolor state, its still spl, not rspl. any ideas, thanks ...
i just noticed that the tricolor screen has " MNG" in the spl version line. i remember the DFT software says to make sure no MNG is displayed in the message. i guess the DFT method does not work with my HTC HD7. now what i do? thank you,

It should still work even with the MNG.
I would try and run RSPL/HSPL again. Sometimes it doesn't work the first time. Run the RSPL wizard and select the 2.10, The device should stay in bootloader mode and say RSPL, if it doesn't change run the wizard again and it should work. Then while it's still in bootloader mode run the HSPL wizard and select the closest version to your RSPL 2.1
Once you install RSPL don't pull the battery or it will reset and go back to OSPL.
