this is what i get in recovery mode.i used DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2..serial became USB".running the programme-Microsoft sync 4.5 installed-all is going well until i get error message.spl version max available was 3.14.failed anyway.next i ran the WP7FG1 programme and now i got no serial or usb showing up on recovery mode.
is it cause the bootloader has been screwed?i read somewhere downgrading is necessary to update to the new 7.8 roms(spl 5.12 not supported so..)
what can i do to fix the situation.is there any way to downgrade without y usb connector.advice from senior members please.

avoiding the search function...
I shouldn't help you for being that lazy.
But... you must use goldcard method, that will fix your problem to downgrade the bootloader and install customs...

Rare problem with an upgrade

Hi,
I tried to upgrade my Qtek S200 with the newest ROM release from PdaMobiz (the 16M pooling page one), but encountered some problems...
It's a Portuguese TMN Qtek (or at least it displays the operator logo when started), although the software is in English.
IPL is 2.09 and SPL is 2.15...
However, after upgrading it, it kept displaying the Operator logo with IPL and SPL, and freezed, so it never worked. When I tried to revert it, I wasn't able to do it, because every time I try to install a different ROM (all of them for the G3 device) it just installs the new ROM, and then goes to that screen and freezes...
It never gave me any error during the upgrading/downgrading, because when it checks the version of the ROM, it displays no information, so it just says that is going to replace the inexistant version with the new one...
Is there a step a missed (I didn't put it in bootloader mode before doing the first upgrade, but I had already done that before with other ROMs and it worked fine...)?
Now I'm stuck without knowing if I should have done an unlock CID before upgrading it, or if there is another steped I missed... Please help me out...
Thanks in advance,
Nuno
Tried this?
Read this in one of the threads and it solved his problem:
Extract the rom file you are using to flash your phone, to a folder on your pc, than Extract the file i attached ("ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip") into this folder. than connect your phone to pc and double click on "ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.exe".
I personally have not tried it, but I downloaded the prog just in case, Hope it helps.
Now it gives me an error...
Hi,
Just tried what you advised, but now it jusk keeps giving me the error 208, which is supposed to happen because I have other programs open on my computer... Tried rebooting, closing most aplications with task manager, and still it doesn't work.
Also tried to downgrade to lower ROM upgrade, but it gives me the error that I can't downgrade, only upgrade...
When I upgrade it with AKU 2.3, it goes all the way through the upgrade, and then when it reboots, it just keeps giving me the operator logo screen with the version info on the display.
If I try to reboot to bootloader mode, I'm not able, the only way to do it is by removing the battery...
I'm probably still doing something I shouldn't... It should be able to work the downgrade utility...
Anyone can help?
Thanks,
Nuno
Try this rom:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip
It shoud be ok.
If your prophet has spl end up with 2.xx.0001 check at
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/
find out the rom which can solve for SPL 2.xx.0001.
Good luck
Thanks Chan! Problem solved!
I was starting to review all my steps ir order to see what I could have done wrong...
Would you advise me to upgrade now to the PDAMobiz latest ROM (the one with the biggest pooling page)?
Thanks again.
Nuno
1. Unlock cid
Since your prophet spl is 2.15, you have to follow this step.
http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=437
From file you can get from ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/
Your PC has to connect to network or internet (to have ip address), becuase in that script use ping command for delay 4 seconds.
It's just downgrade and unlock cid.
You may verify if cid unlocked, by backup rom to sd card. (use romupdate.exe with r2sd all command, check at wiki)
2. Upgrade to official rom
ftp://xda:[email protected]_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip
3. Upgade to pdamobiz, I suggest you to upgrade 12 Mb pagepool version. (even 8 mb version is ok). Because 16 mb has smallest ram space.
Good luck
All solved!
Again,
Thank you very much for your help!
After some tries, upgrading, downgrading, upgrading again, etc, I finally got it, so now its running the PDAMobiz version, which by the way, seems great so far!
Next time I'll come to you directly and then try to make things on my own...
Thanks again!

Hi there,
Easiest, quickest and safest way (for a beginner like you ) is to download an official rom and flash it.
You will need to put your device into bootloader to flash, but you should have no problems with this method.
Once its up and running, read the very good guides and understand the procedures before flashing again
Chow.
thanks but i dont have backup and i can get oficial rom from htc.plz help
Sorry i didnt understand you there fully. Did you say you cant get official download or dont want to flash it as you dont have a back up?
Here is the d/l link for official rom from HTC : http://www.htc.com/www/supportdownload.aspx?p_id=112&cat=2&dl_id=12
If you have you tried a hard reset and it did not work then nothing else will put your phone right as far as i can tell from the info you gave me. Your only alternative is flashing an official htc rom.
How did you get to this place, what did you do to ur device?
IN HTC SUPPORT I RESIVE THAT(Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device)I AM FROM ENGLAND.HARD RESET NOT WORKING ITS SAYS (FORMAT FAILED)HOW CAN I GET PHONE WORK AGAIN.SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
I DID BACKUP BUT I LOSTETSORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
Ok read this, it has link to official wwe rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=458965&highlight=official+rom
ps : just a word of advice, if you had typed official rom in the pharos forum you would have found this quite quickly
Cheers.
If you run into anymore problems after reading the guides, let us know.. we might be able to help with the SPL stuff.

Hi Kari.
I am happy you have success with this update file.
Can you (and anybody with unbrick success), please, write here or to my PM next informations:
1. What is mechanism of your halbrick?
2. What ROM, SPL, unlock state is present on your phone before halfbrick and also the same before update applicating?
3. How you have sent cab file to phone (update cab sender or any coommand line with UpdateWP, full cab or only MODEM subcab)?
4. Have you any certificates problem?
5. Send you it to Mango or after any backup restore?
I am working on full unbrick solution long time. When I will have all informations, I will write Unbrick Manual to thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19571430#post19571430
When somebody have after HTC update "small" halfbrick (more lines on tricolore, but without Serial/USB line), GoldCard method success is confirmed

Yes, it is similar solution as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19607654#post19607654 , only in Azbuka. You can use simple feature USB A/F-A/F to working with GoldCard without bastling, with cables, which everybody have at home - see picture here http://htc7pro.howto.cz/ , external power (2,5 harddisc cable) is better to prevent flashing crash. MicroSD Nokia is not necessary, may be used any card, but you must code goldcard image (see XDA WP7 GoldCard threads), if your region is not equal to nbh file.

Hi, my phone is still in small half brick mode (no usb / serial).
Sorry, that i post little bit wrong information early.
Thanks to widdermann and Martin7Pro for additional information of GoldCard method.
I will try this in some day and keep you informed of results.

I can tell very good news for you
I Have now fully working HTC 7 Pro.
My phones small half brick mode is history now...
I make GoldCard with my sons Android phone, Gold Card Tool, Media Lounge multi card reader, 2GB Micro SD card and self-made USB cables.
I download goldcard.img from h**p://psas.revskills.de/?q=goldcard and
GOLDIMG.nbh from here h**p://htc7pro.howto.cz/Europe/goldimg.nbh
Now i have SPL version 1.22 instead 5.10.

Hello, I am author of this post: 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=284123
There is no need to create goldcard if you firmware belong to your phone region.
You need just Y cable and cardreader. If you put another formatted microSD to phone it may be lock that card to.
You can try to format microSD by any Digital Camera.

[Q] How to repair bootloader?

As many of you probably know there is an issue with the DFT HSPL and the Mango update resulting in the device no being able to be detected in bootloader mode (one line on the tri-colour screen). Is there a fix available alredy or not yet? Because I can't flash the official mango update for my Vodafone Trophy because of the abovesaid reason. Any suggestions or help would be really appreciated.
I got the same Problem.. hope there is some genius soon that has a solution
so... noone? not even a clue? a lot of people have this problem..

probably the easiest method will bee having a ffu file to use with the updatewp or in alternative the cab.pks file with the spl
these are the files signed by ms to be deployed using updatewp
... ultimately we shall wait for the next official update that will be deployed from Zune

I've received the HTC update for Windows Phone through Zune yesterday, update that contains SPL and radio, phone rebooted twice immediately after the update and still no good bootloader, so no luck with that.
thats all bad news.. for now we are stucked with this problem
same problem here
note to self.. never use custom rom until someone has the solutions to ALL of the problems.
Did you already tried goldcard method. This flashes also the bootloader.

a guy in HD7 forums have already tried this, without success.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17764002&postcount=11
The only way I see after all this attempts is directly flashing mermoy with JTAG
only way to fix this is by " http://gsm-technix.de/shop/produkte/19/1/10/htc/ "
I used this after testing custom spl/radios and ofcause **** can happen
20 euro + 6.90 euro and your phone is fixed for German people
(it worked for me and got my phone back in only 2 day's )

Correction:
Never use Custom ROMs without reading the forum or read the chef instructions first. If people are too lasy to read dont mess with your phones.
jup correct.
And if you want to test/dump/build/cook be prepared to get a bricked phone
iwas have same proplem an i tried all those methods :
*fomat device
*restore backup
*creat goldcard
*replace card
*flashing rom via xtc Clip Box
*Y-Cable Method

[QUESTION]: HTC 7 Pro T7576 - 7.10.8107.79 - Unlockable?

I recently purchased a new HTC 7 Pro T7576 and am looking to unlock it to install the root tools.
I have spent several days trying to read up about unlocking prior to posting in this thread, but have not had much luck.
Based on my research, I understand that there exist several different type of unlocks. For the work I'd like to do with this device, I require that root tools are installed and understand that the INTEROP unlock would suffice for this as the tools are not native tools.
I have followed most of the instruction online with out much luck for setting up the device yet. The details of the device are:
Name: HTC 7 Pro T7576
Software: Windows Phone 7.5
OS version: 7.10.8107.79
Firmware rev number: 2250.21.51202.111
Radio software version: 5.71.09.02a_22.51.50.21U
Radio hardware version: A.102.0.D4
Boot loader version: 2.2.5.0
The steps I've taken thus far are to take a backup of the device using zune, download the HTC_Interop_Unlock.xap and tried to install it using XAPDeployX-v0.9.
The error message I get back is:
Deployment FAILED with the following ERROR:
Failed to connect to device as it is developer locked. For details on developer unlock, visit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=195284.
Is there any luck for this device?
Thanks!
Based on some additional reading... I would require to flash the boot loader and put a custom rom.
Can anyone confirm?
After several days of research, it appears that the Interop method does not work any more.
Additionally, can someone provide some direction? I'm looking to flash but the instructions aren't clear and I don't want to brick my device.
Thanks.
Any tips from anyone? I'm trying not to avoid bricking my device.
ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
My journey for unlocking this device is still moving forward.
From additional reading, it looks like my SPL is 5.2.2.5.0 which means I must downgrade it...
The only way I see so far is with a gold card.
Given I have an OTG cable? Can I use this cable? to somehow download the bootloader?
Hi,
use this Method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456200
This will work on my boot loader? Even with an SPL with 5.1.2.2250.0?
To close the loop, I used a goldcard image with the RUU_Gold_HTC_Europe_1.22.401.01_Radio_5.63.09.13_3a_22.36.50.15U_by_ansar.zip to create the GOLDIMG.nbh to downgrade the firmware.
Was a bit finicky, but eventually it took the update.
Next to install a custom rom...
Update: Trying to install RSPL and HSPL, but no luck
Does the DFT tool work on these devices? I've tried to go through the 126 page DFT thread (below) but no really confirmation
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647
If anyone can help this would be great!
Moving right along... Got the HSPL flashed. Had to use another PC.
The original PC I used was a VMWARE workstation with Windows XP, which did not detect the device.
Used a physical Win7 Laptop, everything worked just fine.
Now onto a custom firmware....
Hmm, tried to flash Dynamics v2.0, but it needs a special radio version.
I got the radio, but not sure how to flash it, can someone help explain how to do this with RUU?
Thanks.
Hi dustbyter
are you still interested in this topic? I just did the same on my HTC 7 Pro T7576

I love everything but the OS of this phone.
I am a total newbie at mobile OS but have 10 years experience with Slackware linux.
Please help me out with detailed instructions to replace Windows Phone with Android on HTC 7 Pro.
Thank you!

I second this. Windows Phone 7 is a dead-end street. Therefore, nobody even cooks ROMs for these phones any more (the newest ones I could find are from 2013).
That's pretty bad since otherwise, the HTC 7 Pro is a good phone - I love its keyboard as my fingers do not seem to be compatible to touch screens
It was possible to port Android to legacy devices like the HTC HD2. Wouldn't it be possible to do that for the HTC 7 Pro, too? That would be, I think, the greatest thing since sliced bread
Kind regards,
DAC324
