[Q] htc arrive sprint 7392 - HTC 7 Pro

hey everyone i recently got my htc arrive [sprint] and it came with the 7392 update pre installed and i was woundering if there is anyway to downgrade it or unlock it, if so thankyou very much!

From what I've read in different parts of this forum, people downgrade to an earlier version of WP7 by using Zune to restore to the point before they upgraded, and that's not possible in your case because you didn't upgrade in the first place!
Another way I could think of it to install on your device a ROM for an earlier version of WP7, but then you might face problems with CDMA because it wasn't supported in the early versions, so unless you can put a ROM for the HTC 7 Pro's old WP7 then unlock it then upgrade and get CDMA support again, it might not be possible :S

...
i cant find a rom for my phone. they have them but not for the htc arrive sprint model and i wanted to work on a jail break for my phone or for the nodo but i really dont know where to start. does anyone have a htc arrive pre nodo update for sprint?

Read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1231035 and this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261582 or this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1099458

i dont get where you are trying to point me to go. first link is for htc 7 pro non sprint and then i check out the dev unlock which dosnt work anymore cause microsoft dosnt have that edu email regester anymore you have to regester by school. and plus i really do not feel comfortable using my ssn!

You can't downgrade past NoDo. Since NoDo is required for CDMA support, there is no way to downgrade further since your phone never had a version of WP7 prior to NoDo. Even if you could, you'd likely break your phone.

no your wrong because the demo phone in my store is 7004 cdma so enuff of this cdma non supported on the older verson first off the phone is cdma not gsm! wait if i dump the demos phone 7004 update could i use it on my main phone?

Trying To Update to Mango

im not sure where to start i downloaded Noob frendly MANGO update but is the beta 2 or not.. Im not sure what im doing because this isnt like an iphone. But i did unlock it when i first got the phone with chevron but after updating to nodo well it was locked but i was still able to get updates for the phone like the radio firm etc.. whats my next move

Cant unlock nodo need help

Basiclly I had mango installed on my phone and saw that everyone was unlocking them and so I went back to my nodo backup. I was reading a tut that was ment for pre nodo and it didnt say that so I hard reset my phone. After looking everywhere on how to unlock nodo I found nothing. So Now I have a stock nodo rom on my phone is it possible to unlock it and then bring it up to mango still unlocked. Btw I have an HTC Arrive
u would have to flash back to pre nodo rom then unlock with chevron and use tut to pass chevron unlock to mango
Where is a rom I could download/use for my phone. Htc Arrive,I got my phone with nodo already on it so I dont have a pre nodo backup
check out these two threads ... depending on what carrier u have though

Thanks alot I am gonna do that now. Really thankful
Where can I find the htc-flasher for windows 7 I only find the one for linux
what do u mean ? just do as it says in step C the flashing instructions the romupdate utility is for windows 7
sorry I thought I need a tool or something
Ok i tried that but it says it doesnt see my phone do i have to put into bootloader mode and how do I do that
edit:nvm found out
OK I go it to flash but now it thinks its an HTC MWP. Also It still wont let me unlock it. Can someone please help me. I flashed it so its now version 7392 so can it be unlocked
what carrier do u have and what country
I have sprint and USA. Also I am now at nodo and Im preety sure I read that its impossible for the HTC arrive
Sorry, you CANNOT have HTC Arrive without NoDo. NoDo added CDMA support which is needed to operate on Sprint's network.
yea day2die is right sorry ... looks like u need to flash the sprint nodo rom back on to ur phone
that really sucks. Well can I flash pre nodo with out any service and then unlock. then flash to sprint rom
you would have to wait and see if there will be a custom rom avail which would be already unlocked and have to use rspl for the bootloader to allow u to flash a custom rom... but then u wont be able to update through sprint probably

[Q] check for hspl/rspl

i just ordered a verizon htc trophy off of ebay. the first thing i want to do when i get it, is to install the htc leaked mango. from everything i've been reading, i know that i will brick the phone if hspl or rspl is installed. the phone is supposed to be brand new, but i'll want to be safe before i run the RUU. is there any way for me to check for hspl/rspl, or other software mods to the phone?

[Wifi Sharing] Do we have it/is it being worked on?

This is something I really miss from my HTC Diamond. I was wondering if someone is working on it, or if someone has something working and I just haven't heard about it. Enlighten us here.
[Sprint HTC Arrive]
Would love to have it as well
Sprint Arrive here as well
Only if you have a .dev or dreamspark account that will allow you to sideload xaps. It is possible that ansar or another GoldC rom creator could add the cert from another party that would then allow interop unlock from Heathcliff. I don't believe there's any other possibility at this point.
The GoldC unlock isn't taking any priority & last I heard DFT doesn't even have one to work on. However, it does appear that many are looking for what would result in an across the board unlock/root method.
ive got dreamspark. is there a guide or a package to sideload that you can point me to?

I may have been wrong, it is not on the list:

However, I assumed this guide would work & thought I read someone with an Arrive had it running:

Please let us know if it works for you.
Maybe someone can chime in if Im wrong but I think we're f#cked for the time being.
To have the official ICS in mango you have to edit the registry and have the HTC driver. (I believe after alot of reading that the HTC driver is in the update after mango)
But if you install that HTC update you are interop locked (heathcliff posted that)
If you're interop locked you cant edit the registry to get ICS working
So the only hope is ansar's new dfrouter app
i asked him specifically if it works on a cdma device because even though I got the HTC android drivers to install and recognize the arrive, the modem would not connect (it just appears to dial out) Ofcourse that was with dfrouter and not ansars new app but he verified what I thought that the difference between the gprs and cdma radios is why it doesnt work.
I just want to tether wifi tethering would be nice but any kind of tethering would make me happy.
Also someone posted on ppcgeeks that when they called sprint about hotspot tethering they said it would not be a supported feature on the phone, so sprint is out and its up to xda
So as far as I can see 1 of 2 things need to happen
Heathcliff figures out how to interop HTC devices after the HTC update
Ansar gets his app working on cdma devices
That sounds right. Except I thought if you're dev/dreamspark unlocked you can sideload xaps that will allow you to interop unlock, load root tools, add the prov xml(s) or reg keys & voila, USB ics.
I thought to use root tools you needed to be interop unlocked?
I have a dev account and im still on nodo.
I dont have access to a windows 7 pc very often but id try anything to get this working.
---------------------
Unfortunately I was right about root tools but you did give me an idea, I'll pm heathcliff and see what I can come up with
After rereading the 60page thread on the built in ICS it appears the HTC update does not include the needed drivers for the built in ICS
The only known HTC rom to have them is the HTC Mozart 5.01 rom
I'm gonna look at the new sprint demo rom that got uploaded yesterday and see if they're there but I doubt it.
Sooooo I guess we need to wait for someone to package the driver up in a xap or something
Without the driver it will show up in settings but wont connect
I'm glad you checked jaygriggs. I read that the Arrive driver was an issue but thought that the mango update resolved it. Thanks for clarifying that issue as unresolved.
Someone on this arrive forum found & posted a modem driver that was supposedly compatible with the arrive @ one point. I will post the link when I find it...
...Ha! you posted the driver:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1014234&page=2
And those drivers work
The arrive will be recognized by the pc
for use with the dfrouter app
I could get it to dial out but it would never connect, I assume because there is a difference between the gprs and cdma radio.
The issue now is for official ICS
we need a HTC driver for the phone
If it were only a driver for the pc i'd have it done for us
The driver is out for the mozart whether we need a cdma driver or not remains to be seen, as soon as they put the driver in a xap or something I will be working on it.
Sweet I'll be keeping an eye out.

Alright I'm not 100% this will work but I believe it will and I'll be testing hopefully this weekend or early part of next week.
My device is Sprint arrive on Nodo dev unlocked
1 Ill put on max unsigned apps xap
2 Ill put on the proxy app (for interop unlock)
3 Ill install ansars usbmode switching app
4 Ill install ansars U2M7720
5 Ill upgrade to mango following this thread to maintain interop unlock
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281597
6 I'll add the HTC update via ansar's offline installer (to maintain interop unlock)
7 I'll add the drivers to the PC that I worked on that is documented in the other internet sharing thread
Then it should work
Ansar states here that his updated app works on cdma devices
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271265
If anyone tries this before me please post your experience
We are definitely screwed at the moment we need HTC connection setup
to maintain interop unlock and that program is off the marketplace until further notice
You cannot sideload it because it checks the signature
Thanks to GoodDaytoDie for the tip

[Q] Trophy ROM for Mazaa?

Hi everyone,
I am an HTC Mazaa owner and want to know if theres a way to install HTC Trophy ROM on my Mazaa device. Since apperently Mazaa is same in everything to Trophy, so I guess no extra drivers will be needed.
I am very new to all this. So please tell me if theres a chance for installing Trophy ROM on Mazaa, if yes, how.
Thank you.
Please reply people
CPU is different
I think CPU and some chip is diffrent so It is not possible
The answer is no. The HTC Mazaa may share the same shell with the HTC Trophy, but the internals are different.
Is there any other way to install the latest ROM?
OR atleast tell me how to do interop unlock on my Mazaa.
The HTC Interop-Unlock app should work on the Mazaa, unless it has a specific block on the Connection Setup app or its firmware version is too high.
HTC interop-unlock is not working on my Mazaa that has mango. Please help.
... Did you read the info on what is required for the app to work? What's your firmware version number? Prior to Mango, were you able to use provxml apps?

I feel your pain, I have interop unlocked my Trophy twice but with this latest firmware it's impossible. We will have to wait for a custom ROM.
Verizon Trophy is now supported in V3 of DFT's HSPL unlock. I have written a HOWTO guide for Verizon Trophy.
Mazaa, I somehow doubt if DFT is working to support, but you'd need to contact them and ask. They can only work on phones they can get their hands on, and they may not be able to get a Mazaa.
It seems that Mazaa has one stock rom available (i have no way of verifying if this rom works), but it is for Mango. I do not know if this phone shipped with NoDo or if you can find a stock NoDo from for it (perhaps try private messaging Football to see if he has a connection that can get roms for this phone??).
Verizon Trophy can be downgraded to NoDo using the same rom listed in my HSPL guide (it is the only NoDo rom that isn't a store demo).
Hi,
I uploaded the stock mango rom. It works.
I personally don't know anyone with a stock nodo rom for the mazaa.
Connection setup should exit with "no database found" or something like that. Yes, very lame.
On the whole, there's no way to interop-unlock the mazaa yet.
Interestingly, if you register the phone's serial on the htc website, it registers as a SPARK_W, which is the same as the verizon trophy. I haven't tried using hspl v3 to unlock it, so update us if you get anywhere.
but if you do screw up, then just use the stock rom above. ;-)

I am ready to try HSPL V3 but I can't enter the phone's SPL mode. The Volume Down + Power On is not working for me. Can someone guide me on how I can use HSPL V3 on Maaza.
Please reply.
