[q] need help with y cable - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know this is not Mozart forum (not able to get any help there) but I do have a HD7 which I ve successfully downdgraded with the Y cable. My problem now is that i ve a bricked Mozart, which when I initially use the Y cable I was having the "serial and usb" showing when i enter bootloader but after many attempts in the "usb host mode" (vol down+camera+power) "serial and usb" disappeared. Now i am able to get as far as "loading and then it is stuck in "checking". I ve been using a lot of different card readers and different sizes usb and sdcards from 1 to 16gig, when i use usb flash drive it goes into loops (off, on, tricolor and usb download host mode). I ve been trying for 3 weeks now even send to HTC service but they wanted to change the main board and charge me US$200+(madness, rather throw it away).
So, just wanted to know if anyone has encountered this problem with HD7 and manage to overcome it otherwise I will give it away for others to salvage the parts as mine is in very good condition. Hope to get some help and Thanks in advance.
I ve search but no one seems to be having the same problem as mine. I ve also tested the Y cable, card reader and sdcard they are fine as the phone detects it. If i don't put an image in it tells me so or if I put in something else it says "not allow"

if this method doesn't work anymore, then you must pay for the Riff Box service to flash a new bootloader and rom, it doesn't cost over $100, I'm not sure how much maybe between $15 - $50, just look for someone who fix cellphones and has a Riff Box.

dead wizard ffs #$%&/()=

hi guys
first of all sorry for this subject name but im really pissed off, so pissed i could kill sum1 seriously...
i bought this friggin ppc like 2 years soon, and of all that 2 years i've been using it for half a year in total...
first problem was lcd missaligned, than soon started USB problems..
managed to repair LCD (changed it completely) but now the USB problem remains and im friggin tired dead of all this mess... i don't have a clue what to do anymore..
so, cignular 8125, G3 series... molski 2.26.10.2 AKU 2.3 rom on it...
problems now:
it boots up after 2-3 minutes..
than the worst problem is that USB cant sync with pc...
i tried plugging in motherboard usb on pc,. than tried to get even a 2nd PCI usb card and always the same problem..
when i connect pc via usb cable to ppc, i see ballon saying: usb found, generic rndis, PocketPC mobile based bla bla bla and after few secs i get usb hardware might not work properly, error ocured.. and that happens all the time, i even get sometimes on PPC a screen saying USB> connecting to host (cancel, hide) and it freezes there...
so, after this mess i send ppc to a service guy that changed me the USB plug on ppc (as u guys said it could solve the problem http://tinyurl.com/3xvj4m )
so he changed it and im stuck again on this friggin ppc...
goddamn %&/()= i wish i was never so stupid to buy this piece of machinery, after only half a year it bricked down and now i'm only loosing my mind...
anyway... can anyone make this for me http://tinyurl.com/2ku6lw copy his rom on sd card and send me that copy of sd card over mail or put it on ftp?
Any other thing doesnt help me, even in bootload mode it says USB in left corner on ppc, but again pc says usb not recognized and again it wont get connected (so no RUU update)...
guys, im seriously desperate....
btw, anyone knows sum1 in eastern or central europe a person or service capable to fix this....? the ppc i got it from usa, but im in eastern europe..
thanks and i hope u will understand my nervouse..
did u allready try to connect with other pcs?
i had problems like this when
1.) i do not switch off internal firewall, ashampoo, didn't have this problem with sygate personal
2.) i had software installed, called PLV - Manager , has something to do with my work..^^, which connects via Serial port and somehow does also block usb ports.
well yea i tried other pcs, but maybe the firewall is the key and some other programs... i'll see this weekend... any1 suggestion for a service guy who can manage to repair the ppc in case i fail?
thx

usb not work cant flash by SD, charging only when off

Hello,
Firstly I want excuse that I open new threat and open it here, but please let me explain it why I do it.
I have O2 Stellar, with SPL:1.82.0000 and my USB dont work, and USB connector is OK and cable or USB port too. I try it at diferent PCs with diferent systems aka XP, Vista.
Main problem is that USB dont sync with ActiveSync or other, no "Tada sound" dont show "not recognize" really nothing action when I plug it to USB.
And charging is work only when PDA is off and light RED LIGHT but when is off, than no action, no light, no charging.
I know that this is threat for "Kaiser General" but I can live with charging only when is off, but I cant live withou coocked ROMs, I really try use all HardSPL new Radios, NBH from shippedroms copy to SDcard (Formatted to FAT32) and it only show "LOADING..." but nothing, more, still Loading.
I was tryed JumpSPL but it dont flash from SDcard, and USB is not showing and not working, that I cant use MTTY.
Please let this threat open, I really need HELP
Do someone know if this is Hardware or Sofware problem?
I cant send it to service, from my country is too expensive (like new phone)
Thank you in advance
Jozef Ziak
Edit: The handsfree is working perfect, I really dont know what is it.
i have the same problem i been through three phones already 1 that i used roms on and two brand new ones from warranty att said it's a hardware issue".they are sending me another phone.
I had almost a similar problem with my tilt at one point. Check your usb to pc settings and make sure you have "advance connection" (or something similar I can't remember exactly what it says) checked. On the rom I am using now shows something different there. I says "enable faster data sync" "uncheck if activesync doesn't recognize the device"
Thank you, but nothing reconize my PDA, no sound after plug, nothing when I go manualy to Bootloader, only show serial, not USB
same problem
Hi,
I had the same problem. I tried everything but nothing helped. I had 2 more months of warranty so they changed the main panel. After I got it back from the service it was working for 3 weeks long and now again died with the same issue.
Strange. I have to send it back to the service.
HI there , I had the same problem for about 4 month but i solved it >>> how ?
Just clean your htc USB port and check if it is broken or not and you will see that your issue will be solved brother

I think I bricked my HTC Touch Pro 2 HELPPPPPPP!P!!P!PP!!3$%^&?

Alright so I was trying to update the rom on my phone to no avail, always the damn program (custom ruu.exe) came up on the last screen displaying error 262 (update error) which is VERY common.
So I find in multiple forums of people recommending a certain update of the diamond phone series, I dont know why the f^*( I tried it, halfway in the update the phone went dark, and now wont turn on AT ALL.
I try the soft reset, battery out for a while, reinstall active sync, try in different pc's (win7 64bit, xp 32bit) no hope so far.... Well the ONLY sign of life is when I plug the phone via usb cable to either PC there is a hardware detected under "Qualcomm CDMA technologies MSM"
I believe its some sort of diagnostic mode to access the phone, but I cannot find drivers ANYWHERE! Please folks help me out is this thing done? is there hope?
PS i tried to update the drive on the Qualcomm device to wince usb (HTC USB SYNC) and it will install, however since IM NOT ABLE to go in the bootloader what else can i try?
i cannot access the bootloader & phone would not turn on.

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but sounds like your only hope lies in using jtag (which is not easy or cheap, could try a warrenty exchange.)

You could also put it in a microwave, or hook it up to a car battery, say it fried it self, then get a new on warranty
so you guys are telling me theres 100% nothing i can do?
not even with the qualcomm usb situation?

so you flash a diamond gsm rom on cdma rhodium your device is one expensife brick its not easy to unbrick it best you can do is say you charge it all night and found not working in the morning send it in for repair and hope you get new one
a good advice read read read before even trying it always be shore
threads like this should get pinned for eternity.
hah i was thinking something like that, except that i just noticed battery low before sleeping, seemed drained in morning, wont turn on now, tried a friends battery and same problem.
PS: the main reason this happened and propably similar threads, is because there are notices to UPDATE YOUR TP2 with a DIAMOND UNLOCKER which misleads us novice users! its a shame for this to happen to such an expensive phone, and i wont usually do what ill attempt, but cant repay this company $600 for a simple fix for them.

[Q] Downgrading Bootloader, STUCK.

Hello all, I have an HTC HD7 TMOUS - UNLOCKED, working in Asia Subcontinent. I bought the phone and was stupid enough to update it to mango as soon as I got home. Now I'm stuck with 5.12 Bootloader. Okay, so I followed all the tutorials and then:-
1) Made a goldcard for one of my microsd cards. It's 1 GB so using EASEUS partition I built it down to 512mb on FAT32.
2) Extracted RUU_Signed, renamed it to SCHUIMG.nbh and copied it to card. Then patched my goldcard on it using Goldcardtool.
3) I made a USB Y cable myself as I didn't have one. I cut 2 Data Cables. One that I had to connect to my HD7 and the other that I had to connect to my HTC Evo 3D, This device I had to use as a card reader (USB Mass Storage) as I had no access to a female usb port. I joined the black and red wires of power and both data cables. I only joined the green wire with green and white with white of the two data cables.
4) I loaded my HD7 in USB host mode and then connected the other side of Y cable to Evo 3D. It began charging but didn't display the dialogue for USB Mass Storage. I switched the wires, and still the same thing happened. I booted my E3D into recovery, so that I can mount mass storage from there, clicked on mount, still nothing.
Nothing happens, it just keeps saying 'Enter USB Host Mode..'. I let the connection stay for 5+ mins before getting angry and taking it out. If anyone has any clue or idea or solution, please put it forward. I spent a great deal of time trying to unlock my phone and also writing this thread. Lol.
Thanks to anyone in advance who replies.

Ah, seriously the support's much better over the Android section. :/

i haven't ever used Goldcard method, so can't comment further.

Thanks, I'm gonna try that too now. Just btw, my bootloader shows 'Serial' written down where it's supposed to show 'USB' as I saw in many pics. Does this mean something bad?

that could mean a half brick. if it is, the method described by the tutorial, i believe, will unbrick Bootloader.

How come its half-bricked? When I bought the phone it was barely used, I updated it to Mango myself and then used it. Never tried to unlock it or anything. And now that I tried, I noticed Serial already. can I have a link to types of bricks and solutions etc? Thanks a lot.

well, first...
does Serial change to USB when you connect your device to your computer via USB cable?
if it doesn't, it is half-bricked.
half brick: broken Bootloader, but a functional device
full brick: broken Bootloader and a nonfunctional device
no!!!
if the serial is not changing to USB...that means you dont have a driver on your pc.....and it is not being recognized by the pc....
Install the latest ActiveSync driver and it should work

my main problem is "Device handshake failed"

Hi folks
this is the first time for me with WP 7 i am with the Android since the G1 lol.
i got an a focus s from a friend and i said to my self , why you don't try it? its locked to at&t, so the first thing i have to do is unlocking it.
at that point the problems started!!, i checked the unlocking cost via code, the average is 30$ which is expensive for 80$ phone!!, so i choose to unlock it via fastgsm and unlocking via USB cable.
i followed the instructions and everything seems to be OK till the last step when the phone reboots to the download mode, the program shows "FAILED" i had contacted teh customer support for fastgsm and they tried to help me, with o hope, thereafter i didscovered that there is somethign wrong with the connection of teh phone to the PC.
i start to read and read and read again "noting that i am expert in android things" and finally i decieded to use the CAb sender and/or the "sharp7eighter' to update then SIM unlock.
both programs with the same error "Device handshake failed" noting that the phone is connected and shows i937 in my compute but it never ever recognized by Zune, always says "no device connected"
sorry for my bad English, but i am very sure there is something i can do to :
1-go back to stock
2-update my phone
just to connected the fastgsm program to be able to SIM unlock it at acceptabl;e price 15$.
please and thanks

Fastgsm stopped working with the focus s when the newer firmware got updated, I think it was version LE2, I know I had to pay for more expensive unlock although in theory we can achieve unlock without paying anything with gsmtools etc, but this is risky as I don't really know how, it would require some experimental work!
As for connection issues
On keypad of your phone type ##634# and click "Call" button to show Diagnosis screen.
Type *#7284# onto Diagnosis screen, select "Modem, USB Diag." For fastgsm, and "zune" for...well, zune and confirm selection
Restart and let me know how zune sync now works

so, the safest way is pay the 30$, correct? noting that the firmware is in the attached pic

i know, and i am already on the "Zune, USB Diag." option.

Incidently its modem diag for fastgsm and not zune diag, as far as I could tell zune diag doesn't work with either!

OK, there are a bunch of things we are going to try
Firstly are you in a position to hard reset your device from the boot loader?
If so do it, If not turn it off instead
turn your PC off
Plug USB cable in to a different port on the back of your PC, do not use a hub, it has been known that some hubs can affect sync
Turn both pc and phone on, assuming you have used a different USB port windows will install new drivers
Load zune and try again
Sent from my arc 10HD using xda app-developers app
i didn't use the phone yet, so i have no data to lose.
for the hardrest i did it many times, from setting , about, reset your phone then turn it off, press the three buttons together (power+camera+vol down) and format.
i don't know what you mean by headrest via bootloader.
and i changed the USB port and used 3 different types of USB cables, with no hope
and the strange thing is, when i plug the phone, the zune starts automatically and shows no device connected !!!
i am very sure that the previous user for the phone manipulate wit the software, so all i am trying to do is revert to stock, and i have another question regarding the download mode, when i was using the USB method from fastgsm to SIM unlock (screenshot attached), it shows that the PC detect the phone and read all information, but when it restarts to the download mode, it "FAIL".

I think its connected as a MTP device, that probably explains it..
OK,
Im going to hazard a guess with drivers being the problem
with the device connected I want you to do in to device manager and uninstall the driver for it, make sure you click delete driver as well.
then Disconnect the device before it can start installing it again
then go to http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html and download the program at the bottom, make sure you choose correctly between x86/x64
this little program will allow you to view and delete all USB devices connected past and present. basically select the device, right click and uninstall it, you will need to run the program as admin
Have a field day and delete anything and everything that might be related to the phone, if you whack something that isn't related all you will have to do is reconnect it and it will install the drivers again so there isn't much to worry about.
try that and see if that removes what I think is a driver conflict. mind it might not be obvious what is and isn't related so best err on the side of caution and keep only those that definitely are not it!
Note it might be Samsung, or i937 or Windows phone or WP7 or more annoyingly USB composite device of which you will have many, just mind one of these will be a keyboard and mouse, if it stops just unplug and plug back in, windows will take care of the rest
