[Q] HTC HD7 7.0 (7392) Downgrade - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there, first post
I have a HTC HD7 phone on O2. Its current version is 7.0 (7392) and has not been unlocked with chevronWP7 before.
My question is how do i downgrade for 7004 or 7008 so i am able to use Chevronwp7 to unlock my phone?
I have been searching the forms for help and found out it is possible to downgrade using something called "ROMS" so i tryed searching that. But i had no luck finding a tutorial or usefull help on to how to do this.
So please can some one tell me how to do this? i am completly new to it all. So please try to break it down.
Thank You

hi original spike
first you need to google the following files and download them. make sure they are the exact named ones:
RUU_Schubert_O2_UK_1.57.728.02_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U_Signed_by_ansar
and
RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE
after you downloaded them extract each of them in to seperate folders. from now you will be working from the folders so put the downloaded files away.
now copy the modelid.fig file from
RUU_Schubert_O2_UK_1.57.728.02_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U_Signed_by_ansar folder in to the
RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE folder.
after you have done this put your hd7 in to dfu mode by power off completly then hold volume down and press power button.
connect usb and make sure were it says seriel to begin with changes to usb.
Now run the ROMUPDATEUtility from inside the RUU_Schubert_O2_UK_1.57.728.02_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U_Signed_by_ansar folder you extracted and wait for it to finish and when it does it will show up as an error and put your phone back in to dfu mode which is exactly what you want to happen.
Now run the ROMUPDATEUtility from inside the RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE folder you extracted and once that has finished voila enjoy your new debranded htc hd7.

im looking to do the same thing dont know if my phone is walshed tho. Tmobile HD7 what rom do i need

this link............. RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09. 06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE ............. its only one file named RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09. 06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE.exe, its 208mb in size or some thing, there is no ROM update utility.exe in it..so its all fake...
or else give some reasonable links

sorry i dont have tmobile so i am unable to test it out. your best bet is to ask ansar..he's the man for wp7 roms. search him or go to htc hd7 section . at the moment he is redesigning his posts due to the new update releases.

cant reach ansar some how.....
when i followed his procedure i got my hd7 bricked...coz the send file he has mention does not exist...so if some 1 can find me a link to this files RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09. 06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE n not the .exe file i wil b very thankful

My first ROM installation

I have unlocked my CID on my G4 phone, I have downloaded SNN version 2.0 I have a question, do I just hook my phone through active sync or is there a special way to install a rom? Really could use some details here. I've read the newbie instalation post but it leaves this part out. Thanks

Yep, if you have xp, another option is to flash it with a miniSD card or in the bootloader mode
I dont know your situation
lost
I have XP, I tried it and got the 3 red colors, I unhooked the usb and and rebooted the phone and it came back ok, but it updated nothing, I really want wm6 but just dont understand.
explanation Please
OK I downloaded TNT TouchFlo, This is what I see when I download and open it what do I do from here no read me's, There is a Bootloader , nk.nbf , RUUGetInfo.exe file, RUUResource.dll file, XP_ROMUpdateUtility.exe file,
Do I need to drag and drop a file into something or just click on one of the exe files. This is not explained in the newbie section. Thanks again

A G4 device cannot be CID unlocked,what you mean by saying You got it CID unlocked,Have you applied 'HardSPL' what IPL/SPL it shows at present ?
I applied the hard one and the IPL is at 2.21.0001 and SPL 2.21.0lip

All you have to do is run the RomUpdateUtility.exe. I would recommend making sure you don't have any screen savers running on your pc and that you put your phone into "airplane mode" from your comm manager before clicking the update utility.
Once you click on the rom update utility you will be presented with a series of screens. The first two screens you have to check off that you understand and press next. It will then get your current rom settings then you click update then next.
The point that the your phone is being "flashed" is represented when you have a progress bar. Make sure you don't touch your pc or your phone. The process takes about 10 minutes to complete. It may also seem to "freeze" around the 99% or 100%, just let it be, this point of the process always takes longer. The process will complete with a screen saying that you've successfully updated your device, it will then send an order to reboot your phone. Congrats you've updated your phone.
error 300
everything was going good , then error 300, invalid update tool, The update utility cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please get newer update utility.
Thats what it says and I have the 3 color screen on my phone, what do I do now? LOL Hope its still ok. Everything worked fine till the update bar appeared then that message appeared.
Negative.
That is NOT CID-unlocked, just to trick RUU as if it is unlocked. If you use WST, you can still see your CID is locked.
?
What is WST, and what do I need to do?

You are wrong here,its not CID unlocked,its just tricked into CID unlocked with a patched IPL/SPL,whereas,its not actually CID unlocked.
Don't miss guide the people.
dwilha
With IPL2.21.0001 and SPL 2.21.0lip,your phone is HarSPL,its temporarily tricked into CID unlock,yes,you can flash any wm6 or 6.1 rom onto it,by just hook up the phone with pc via usb cable and run the RUU exe application included in the rom,it'll start to upgrade,but if you have problem,download the 'Mun's RUU' and replace it with the RUU application in the Rom and run it.

Okay my fault, i should have phrased my statement correctly. That's what i meant to say but in the end the CID needs to be "unlocked".
Thanks guys, but with the SPL and IPL where they are I should be able to flash correct? When I do I get error 300 as I posted earlier, Yoy also state to download Muns I think, how do I replace the Ruu in it, Please explain.

Download the RUU MUN from the attached file,extract the zipfile and copy and paste all the contents of the unzipped file RUU MUN to the folder of the Rom you downloaded and then run the RUU, or extract the 'nk.nbf' file from the Rom folder and paste it in the RUU MUN folder and run the RUU,ok
You Guys Rock
You guys ROCK, I have windows mobile 6, wahoooooooo. Thanks so very much.
I dont suppose you might know of a rom that looks like the iphone?

Helo dears I have a G3 i-mate k-jam wanted to update it. Unfortunately I updated it to 3.08 with IPL_SPL_3.08 tool. Now when I try to update it, all the process goes as usual (from 0 to 100%) but after restart first screen appears win6.1 the next screen win 5 as it was. I think I have to downgrade SPL from 3.08 to 1.06 first, and then I’ll be able to update it. But how??? Pls help me.
Thanks in advance

Perhaps ! its still CID unlock,did you CID unlock it before upgrading to IPL/SPL 3.08 ? download WST 4.2.2 tool and run the 'CID Action' button to verify the CID lock/unlock status.
Don't downgrade directly from 3.08 to 1.xx,Sometimes SPL freezes at 3.08 and won't get downgraded if you flash Button's Rom 1.05 to downgrade directly,First try to downgrade to 2.xx by downloading and flashing the official Rom,then after that downgrade to 1.xx through Button's Rom.

Reverting to official RUU with HardSPL

I have been searching all over for this but it's probaly right in front of my face. I read that you need to get rid of SPL.nbh from official ROMS before flashing back with HardSPL. The problem is, the official T-Mobile Wing ROM that I downloaded is an .exe file. How do I go about removing the SPL.nbh file since it doesn't display folder contents or anything, just runs the RUU?
Sorry for the double post, I realized I was in the wrong forum

This is the same tool used to flash your device when it was not HARD-SPL.
I replaced the RUU_Signed file and SPL.nh file already.

One more question. I'm looking to keep HardSPL but I have to revert to original to upgrade ROMS don't I? I want to upgrade to your OT 6.5 ROM

Okay,
I thought you wanted to go back to the original T-Mobile rom.
If your trying to HARD-SPL your device to install one of my roms or another cooks roms then thats another story.
Please read my FAQ or one of the stickies.
Ok, I think I got it now. So I don't need to revert to the original ROM to flash it since I have HardSPL? Thanks for the help
wen i did this i think i bricked my fone now its at the tmobile screen and it jus staying there
I tried the file that you uploaded here...And it went thru the whole process of flashing the ROM, but after it updated my wing just stays on the T-Mobiel screen and never boots past that.
It had that open touch software on it and I don't want open touch. I want plan old WM 6.0 on there.
I called T-Mobile and got an offical 6.0 update from them, but when I try that one it gets to 1% then says it has a disconneted and I get a connection error.

So does this work? The two people who did this had problems. I need the phone to be all stock so I can have t-mobile send a free replacement because the screen is going on this wing.
***EDIT:*** Oka so this is the same as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364543&page=2 the first time I tried it it froze at 15% on step 2 so I installed the RAPI CAB like it says. Step two completed, phone rebooted and had white screen then I got error 260 I think. I have the stock t-mobile rom on it and had it on before I did this but it still has the yang from when I did a hard spl. Is there another way to get it to stock or am I doing something wrong? Plug in phone, let it sync, run herald-uspl.exe hit enter and so forth.
***EDIT*** Ok so this time it completed but is now stuck at the T-Mobile screen and I am now unable to even flash because I can't get past it And that damn yang still shows up in bootloader. Well went into bootloader and flashed from there so phone works but the damn yang is still there. And on a side note: Has anyone ever had a problem with their screen going very dark after flashing a rom from here? Phone was fine then I flashed OTP v7.4 TouchFlo 2D Lite.nbh yesterday and at night screen started going dark, would light up when opened in keyboard mode, then switched and then both were very dark and hard to see. I then flashed to OTP v7.3.1 TouchFlo 2D Final.nbh and still dark. Then I flashed to stock rom and have been able to see the screen since.
This is stupid easy to do... im shocked there isnt a post going into detail.
5 steps to going back.

Did not work. Do I need to install the cab files again? I know I deleted a file out of the stock rom so it would not overwrite or verify or something but I put that file back, should I not have? This has been a few weeks and still can't get the yang off. Screen on my girls phone is almost dead, she can't even slide it any more so I need to fix the spl so I can send back to t-mobile....anyone ?
this is what i do to get back to the tmobile orginal. download the software from tmobile. I downloaded the newest update from tmobile site. REMOVE YOUR SD CARD. Connected my phone via usb. Launched the update. It has never failed me yet. It is just like updating your phone. tmobile has to take it, it is their update. They sent me a new phone noproblem, matter of fact i have to do it again, the back on the phone keeps getting loose on me. so they are sending me another phone again. hope this helps.
Alternatively you can use the combination of uspl and stock rom ruu to return your device to stock tmobile rom...
1. Enter in to uspl like you were falshing one of ttran001 roms... You can get this HERALD-USPL-beta3 from http://rapidshare.com/files/79249048/Flash_Center.rar
2. ONLY use steps 1 and 2 from the black screen (getting the white screen on your device)...
3. For step 3 in the flasher exit out of the black screen (windows cmd screen) by pressing ctrl+C...
4. Fire up the official ruu from tmobile found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358030 or alternatively if you have a tmobile account still active you can get the most up to date rom from http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/
5. Fallow on screen instructions...
6. Back to stock rom...

Being stuck at the Tmobile screen isn't a true brick. Just reflash your ROM. (If you're not HardSPL'd, reflash your RUU.)
Remove Hard SPL from bootloader
Hi,
Anyone out there knows if we can remove hardspl from bootloader of Wing. Problem is my mobile displays splash screen, then switch offs by itself. Its been quite some time that I have hardspled it and have been using it. But recently I am facing this issue, so I am trying to move to original RUU and try if it works.
So for that anyone knows if we can remove hardspl from bootloader, because I am only able to enter bootloader. Moreover I tried several original roms from Flash Center as well as through SD card as well, but still be SPL version is 4.70.yang. Anyone knows any other alternative.
Also, if anyone has faced similar problem then kindly advice how you resolved.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Pankaj

[GUIDE] Flash zip from MicroSD card

Here is a guide that hopefully helps people to flash their device through HBOOT.
1) First you need the RUU. You can find it in several forum threads (I'm sure you'll find it).
2) Start the RUU. Don't let it start flashing your device.
Search your C:\ drive (or where you have Windows installed) for "rom.zip".
Once you found this file, copy it somewhere safe.
3) Rename the rom.zip to PD98IMG.zip and put it on the MicroSD card in your phone.
4) Shut down the phone.
5) Press the Power button + Volume down button at the same time and hold them untill you get to HBOOT (white screen with skateboarding androids).
6) Wait for the HBOOT to parse the zip file.
7) Follow the on-screen instructions.
8) Boot into newly flashed device!!!
ty especially for part 2 didnt know where to find the extracted zip
will do my future updates/reflashs now directly by hboot
I've uploaded the 4 RUUs so far including the test ROM to:
http://mcgh.ee/DHD
Nice. Is any one on t-mobile having the same problem like I am having I know its not major but when I try to get into boot mode I have to press the hole volume button down my friend on t-mobile having the same problem and other people I know with unbranded dhd only have to press the volume button downward ?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Has anyone managed to flash test roms yet??
Th root lot would be very interested if anyones achieved it yet.
Once I can create a gold card and a few bits n bobs im gonna be trying everything possible to help the progress of permanent root solutions...

in settings disable fastboot option for boot up. with that enabled the phone does a quick boot like in netbooks.
you can alternatively press restart on the phone and just keep holding volume down until you enter the bootloader
i have an unbranded dhd
you can not flash the test roms as they are not signed by htc. they leave them unsigned since the original desire
Oh ok thanks I will do that now
HTC All the way .HD2 & DESIRE HD
Most of the time the rom.zip (for Windows Vista & Windows 7) is in C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Temp\[LONG_FILENAME]\rom.zip.
The long filename is different all the time so I suggest searching for rom.zip or *.zip in C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Temp.
In my experience this way of flashing gives the most success (done it in my HTC Diamond time).
BEWARE: Your battery needs to be at least at 50% to flash (if your phone runs out of juice during flashing who knows what will happen).
Do you need goldcard for this ? Or this a straight flash ?
HTC All the way .HD2 & DESIRE HD
If you have non-branded phone then you don't need goldcard.
Mine form t-mobile UK but I don't see any branding from boot screen nore and t-mobile around the housing so me bit puzzled now

Hi guys this will be my first post!
I have an Australian vodafone branded DHD, i want to flash it (unbrand it) to original HTC sense ROM because i cannot get the OTA upgrade with voda bloatware on it.
I am downloading the ROM now i suggest it will be the 132 one right?
I am going to unlock (sim lock) my phone tommorrow. Do i need to wait for this to unbrand and flash my device?
What is goldcard? is it on the apps store? how does it work?
Other than that i will follow the guide.
Thanks =)
Anybody please?
how to flash zip and such is the same as Desire, nothing new.
The rom.zip is located in the temp folders.

Just to be safe I would wait and flash your phone after you sim unlocked.
A Gold card is a special SD card which when inserted into your device allows you to flash RUU files with a different CID to your own device.
You cannot find it in app store.
I'm not a pro, so I don't know the details. You can google for it to find a more detailed explanation.

Some people don't know this (like I did in the beginning) so I thought i'd write a tutorial.
I know it's nothing special.

[Q] Cannot update my Desire HD to 2.3 because of Clockwork Recovery Mod

Hello good people,
I have unlocked HTC Desire HD,
It is unlocked.
One of my friends rooted it (although i don't understand what it means) and installed Clockwork Recovery Mod 3....
I have a system update for 2.3
I downloaded it and when I try to install it, system reboots and stops with triangle and exclamation mark inside it with android robot picture.
How can I completely remove this clockwork thing? I already uninstalled ROM manager. But when i do factory reset, this thing always appears....

[Q] HTC HD2 CYANIGENMOD7 ANDROID TO STOCK WinMO 6.5 - HELP!!

Hello, guys.
Well, I love android and all, but I have had problems. Overheating problems for the most part, followed by freezes. I love my HTC HD2 too much for letting the problems occure or continue experimenting, since I'm new to the flashing-scene and
stuff.
I'm really looking into getting it back to stock. Can anyone please help? Obviously, I will need the HSPL to be original and everyting.
I have made 2 different ext. partitions I think on the SD card.
Can anyone please help? Any detailed help is HIGHLY appreciated.
BTW: My phone is LEO 512 MB, EUROPE VERSION, not T-mobile! Thanks!!
BUMP!!
Anyone? I'm really in need for this. I would like appreciate some help on this one, guys!
hey there,
to flash your hd2 back to stock windows 6.5 you need the original rom from the htc website. go in the UK version of the website, go to the bottom and select region as United Kingdom. Then click the help button. then select the hd2. go into new and downloads. download the rom upgrade for HD2. make sure you download the normal one, i mean NOT the one for o2 or T-Mobile or stuff like that. once you download the file, power down your fone. then turn it on with the volume down buttone and power button firmly pressed. dont let go until you see a red, green, blue and white screen. this is the bootloader. connect your hd2 to your computer via the usb cable. the "serial" word will change to "usb". all you need to do now is run the rom upgrade you downloaded earlier. run the file. folow the on-screen instructions and VOILA. u r back to stock hd2 with windows 6.5 Let me know how it goes and give me a thanks if u found this useful.
Post this in the dedicated HD2 forum, and you are bound to get more help.

Hey there. That setup or instruction was my first try. I thought this would not be any problem, but no, it ****ed up the whole phone and software. It was unable to boot or anything after that.
Gladly I renamed ruu.signed to img.signed or something and put it to root on SDcard, and it worked. First time it ****ed up, all though second try it worked (thank god, lol). Now I sent it back for repair, and I think they changed motherboard. Will get it back within a week. But thanks for your help anyways!
OH! well it always runned just fine for me. Anyways atleast youll get your fone repaired.

Hey again!
Yeah, I think it runs just fine for someone, but sometimes it could get a bit messy.
At least I know I was unlucky when I tried. I sent the phone for repair, and they changed the motherboard!
It runs quite smoothly now. Stabile when it starts heating and everything.
Not sure if I will sell it and buy one X or just give it android and run with it for some months/year
Thanks for trying to help anyways.
Hey,
thanx again for the thought. if u have the bugdet definatly go for the one x. . but a word of advice, dont use custom roms on that fone until u absolutely get tired of the default rom. Just a thought to stay safe.. Hope u get it.
