goldcard method, please help me!!! - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, please help me, i'm becoming crazy!
I'm trying the flsh with goldcard method and with 2 usb y wire; one of this is homemade and another was bought...
Now the problem is that this method doesn't function, when I connect my hd7 with a normal usb with 1 output it change the mode in bootloader from "serial" to "usb", but when I connect it with the USB y cable to sd reader and the usb port of the pc the mode don't change.... Is written "SERIAL" and not "USB", also with the y cable, my pc doesn't recognize the micro sd...
Now how I can solve it? When I flash the rom without goldcard appear "invalid vender id" also when I try with goldcard method appear " error 260: connection ecc"...
I think is this the problem...
Please let me some advice.... The card reader, the usb y wire and the micro sd function perfectly!
regards

My PC has windows XP sp3 on it... Please answer me, I can't post my answer on development, because I'm new in this forum..
Regards

Flashing P3600 in Vista

Hi,
I'm trying to flash my Trinity in Vista, but when I run the rom update utility, it goes to bootloader and although I hear the sound of a USB device connected and the phone itself says "USB" on the boot loader, I get the error 260 and it says there's no connection.
I tried plugging, and unplugging a few times.
I tried to change the USB settings on the windows mobile device center.
I even tried SD flashing, renamed file, formatted FAT32 with sandisk 2gb and transcend 2gb but the phone doesn't leave the boot loader.
I have not access to an XP machine.
Can anyone who managed to flash in Vista share some advice?
Thanks.

I followed this tutorial last night:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=FlashVista
and it worked - after that I was able to successfully flash
Hard SLP and Radio from my Vista laptop.
NOTE: In step 5. it is said:
'INSTEAD choose the SECOND option "Browse my computer for driver software". '
- That didnt work for me (VIsta didnt install the driver), I had to:
'...chose to select driver From Disk, and browse to the files you have extracted'
In case you're wandering I followed this tread for HardSLP/Radio flashing:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4409454&postcount=1
Hope it helps
May have a solution to this as it works for me but I'm new to forum so have no idea if it is an offense to put a link here and redirect them to another forum.
Dear Moderators, if it is wrong of me to do so, kindly do not penalised me, just delete my post will do can? thanks

Help! No USB... no SD card... now what?

Hi, my Touch HD is still under warranty but I'm running Hard SPL 1.56.Olinex.
My USB is not working, it just charges my phone. My SD Card reader is also not working... So I can only connect via BT and I can't find any way of restoring SPL without USB/SD... Is it impossible?

Do u try a HARD RESET? If you try a Hard Reset and still have the same Problem you can do some of the things.. tell me witch ROM u use.. maybe the USB problem that don`t wana sync is from the ROM.. also sometimes when you flash a 6.5 ROM the CARD is not visable one FOrmat normaly will clear the things but its bad when you cannot conetc to format via PC
The Best you can do is to flash Another ROM via SD Card but 1st you need to make your SD card working so if you have some SD adapter or some other device that you can take out your SD card from the Phone and conect it directly to the PC will be perfect to FORMAT it.. Once the problem with your CArd is fixed you can just put there some new ROM and Flash the Device...
Its very Bad when on the same time the USB and Card not working but don`t worry you can fix the things but its not so easy.
I'm running official HTC Touch HD_MR_2009_RUU_BlackStone_HTC_PTG_1.56.410.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe... I can connect to PC via BT and copy files...

Yes but the NEW Cooocked ROm is around 170MB so you will need few days to copy this via BT also when your SD card not working this is not posible because the ROM file must to be located in the root of the SD card
Now i understand that you use STOCK ROM so the best you can do is to go in HTC service for Warranty i was thinking you have a problem with Coocked ROM but when is with STOCK ROM its not your fault.
The problem is that I've installed Hard Spl... If I take it to HTC they probably are gonna say it's not covered by warranty...
If you use usb to charge your phone than datacommunication with your pc has to work.
Which OS are you running, because when you entering the bootloader your pc doesn't see your phone as a mobile device anymore.
If you're running WMDC and entering the bootloader than Vista or W7 is searching for new drivers..... If not found read this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524619
For XP you have to install the drivers yourself.
They can also be found in the link.
When the drivers are installed en your phone is synced than it will show USB in bootloader.
After that flash back to stock SPL
Hopefully this is will help you, your problem is very strange
Because of a not workin SD card and a not working USB
I wish you luck!
Thx! I'll give it a try tonight... but I don't think that will help because I've hard-reset the device and tried with Windows 7 and Windows XP and nor the phone nor the pc show any message.
I remember that the SD card did show up, but after a few seconds it would disappear... But now it never shows up... Already changed usb options on control panel...
The last thing I did when the SD was ok was trying Android with no luck.
I believe it's really an hardware problem and maybe I could replace the board that has SD/USB/SIM but would like to use my warranty....
If you update usb drivers there's a good chance that your device will show up on pc. Don't forget to 'enable usb connections' in activesync connections settings
Also if this doesn't work try flashing orginal stock rom which came with your device. This rom, and only this rom, will still flash as long as you are connected to pc (doesn't need to say 'usb' at bottom of bootloader). Alternatively try MTTY
Rick
I had a very similar problem when I last tried andriod. first of all my sd card dropped off, It would go in, be seen and then drop again as soon as I tried to access it. Android had corrupted it. Try reformatting your SD card fat32, copy the rom on and try updating the ROM again using your SD card.
It also busted my pc drivers on my pc, I had to uninstall them completely and then load the latest drivers. If you have another pc try it on this first before faffing with your USB drivers.
Once my sd card was back I couldnt flash any roms, no usb connection. I did a hard reset and then went into spl manually and set it running that didnt seem to work but when my phone rebooted usb was backup.
It seems andriod manager to corrupt my ROM, SD card and uSB drivers on my PC, I havent bothered with Android since and wont until there is a bootable ROM available (never)?
Your USB cable may be bad. Sometimes they stop working and pc communications stops. I've had to replace my usb cables from time to time.

Last time I had something like this, I had to remove the HD from windows mediaplayer. For some reason it was there as plain "storage card" if I remember correctly. After that I could connect normally with the HD again.
*Have you verified that your SD Card is actually working at all?
*-I've had a problem in the past with an "old" SD Card that wouldn't recognise properly in either my PC or my phone. Turns out all i had to do was clean the contacts on it lightly. My original 8Gb SD Card that came with my Blackstone has also completely died. It will not format, will recognise then drop-off and attempting to use it in ANY manner resulted in it becoming excessively hot - Dead card, not replaceable under warranty
*If the SD Card works in your PC, have you tried formatting it to "Device Defaults" via the PC?
*-This problem has in the past also prohibited me from using my SD Card in my Blackstone. For some devices, without certain registry tweaks enabled, only particular formats of SD Cards are recognised. I have also noticed that the card must be formatted in a particular way to be useable as a ROM Flashing card. The Blackstone simply won't read any images from the card in bootloader mode if the card is formatted improperly.
* Try another USB Cable, being able to charge via USB does NOT mean it WILL sync, for example, if your USB cable has bent/damaged contacts, or if the cable itself has a broken lead, the VCC (voltage core) and GND (ground) leads can still create a circuit to send power to the device which will enable it to charge.
*-Also try other USB ports... you never know when one maybe too dusty / dirty / faulty
* Windows 7 / Vista? Uninstall Window Mobile Device Centre (WMDC) re-download and reinstall, or allow Windows Update to do this for you after you've uninstalled. A simple registry error can fark this right up. I should know, as I recently accidentally imported my Blackstone's registry backup to my laptop... ugh that was a nightmare. Windows 7 recovered, but I spent a few days browsing with the wrong user-agent, meaning a lot of websites were redirecting to their "mobile" or "wap" counterparts...ewwww
* Windows XP? Well I can't say too much there, as I haven't used it pretty much since Vista was released years ago. Just do your best to make sure all drivers are updated appropriately.
other sd card
have you tired a different sd card there are known issues with some types of cards sd vs' sdhc and class 2 vs' class 6 cards. Also you may have a bad usb cable? Do you have .net framework installed. are you trying all this on the same computer you used to flash your phone with hspl. You can try putting your phone into bootloader mode wait for usb to appear on the bottom of the tri-color screen and then reflash stock spl from there by opening the BlackstoneRUUWrapper and going through the steps it should see your phone. See the wiki!
And why did you hspl if you have a stock rom?
I did a sim-unlock and didn't restore the spl after the process... I was waiting for the perfect 6.5 ROM...
I didn't have time to test it yesterday but I brought it with me and will try again later...
I already tested the SD in other Windows Mobile phones and was ok... The SD is not the original (Transcend) but a SanDisk 8GB but already tried it with a 2GB SD and nothing. Also tried with different cables. And in different PCs (windows xp and Windows 7). Also did a hard-reset.
Nothing worked! When I enter bootloader with usb cable connected there is no SERIAL and no USB message, but if I remove the cable it changes to SERIAL and doesn't change anymore. On the PC, with XP, W7 and Ubuntu, nothing happens... lsusb gives nothing... on device manager it doesn't show up.
Regarding the SD card, when I insert it the screen turns on, but still no storage card detected... I really think it's an hardware problem.... I ordered this, just in case, http://cnn.cn/shop/touch-simmicrousb-card-module-p-7149.html, but will still try to take it to warranty before because there is a seal over one of the screws...
Thank you all!

Hardware issue with either USB-cable, or the USB-ports on the phone or pc.
Did you try another cable and/or USB-port on your pc?

Thank for your answer, but my device charge very good, I tried another 2 PC (1 laptop, 1 desktop) and many USB cable, but same same. If I use connnect by sync, it is very good. I don't understand.
If it does the same on 3 pc's and with different USB cables I would say there is something wrong with the USB port on your phone, even though you have no problems charging.

[Q] Any way to find out the HD7 MicroSD's CID info? Free gold-card awaits!

As many of you may have seen, this website offers free gold-card for wp7 devices.
It requires the CID; However, i cant seem to find a way to retrieve the CID info of the memory inside the HD7, without having to take out the MicroSD-card (that can void the warranty)
Anyone knows any alternative way?
Thanks.

what for phone do you have ?
is it an hd7 , if it is you need a Y-cable , cardreader , wall charger , sd card (1 a 2 GB)
drop the sd card in a wm phone and use the psas software to get the CID , and order your goldcard .
format the sd (fat) and put the .img and the RUU_signed.nbh on the sd .
connect one side of the Y-cable to the charger , one to the cardreader and the last to the phone .
bring the phone in bootloader and flash (I didn't test this )
... Trying the same: with the other trick from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=867366 I was able to see microSD available in Explorer, and checking its property I had a serial number... that fits on that webpage form. Will let you know. In the meanwhile Happy Christmass.
Thanks guys
Ok, i have the image ,,goldcard,,
What to do now?
Same step: saved goldcard and also *.nbh files on phone extended memory, but now I do not know what to do...
Any help would be really appreciated.

please read my post again , you need a external SDCARD and a CARD READER .
if you wan't to use the internal sd then you first need to open your phone and take out the sd card , format it (LOL not working because the sd card can't be more as 2GB) and put the GOLDCARD:IMG on it (to format it use a nokia) and then put it in bootloader (3 colour) and then put in the sd card (on the sd are : .nbh and .img files) .
now the phone will gif you some options (flash or not)
with external process you are not able to put bootloader from SERIAL mode to USB mode (i suppose this is only zune driver can do). So this does not seem to be a way to do it...

I am playing with this to , here is a quote from the dev that made the goldcard for us.
viperbjk said:
Happy XMAS :
Go and get your WM7 or Android goldcard for free :
Link to the goldcard generator
In order to use the WM7 goldcard, just use an Host USB Cable (Developer Y-Cable) and connect a sdcard reader to it.
Edit :
For those who do not understand how to use the goldcard :
- Use any sdcard and a wm5 or android device to make the goldcard (Yet we do not know how to read the cid using WM7)
- Buy a Mini USB On the go Y-Cable like this one :
http://www.amazon.co.uk/DeLOCK-USB-...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1292614709&sr=8-1
Also buy a converter from standard usb to micro usb.
OR build a usb otg host cable by yourself.
- Get an external usb sdcard reader
- Connect the cable this way : Phone is connected to 1x usb sdcard reader and 1x usb port for power.
Then you can use your newly generated goldcard for flashing any HTC OEM Rom

Thanks in advance

[Q] Bricked ... now "Enter USB host mode" is stuck ... how to fix?

My HTC HD7 (T-mobile) was initially bricked during an update.
Took it to a questionable phone repairer ..
Now you can start the phone, it goes to a red, blue and green screen with the following information:
PD29110 88-BC (4K)
SPL-1.16.2250.0(110866)
MicroP(LED) 0x07
TOUCH 81(v1.8,#1624)
Then it goes to a white screen with "Enter USB Host Mode.."
You connect it to the computer and it is not recognized via USB. Cannot turn the phone off using the on/off button.
Anyone know how can this be fixed?
NOTE: I am totally illiterate to phone tech talk so keep any answers to "very simple instructions". Thanks in advance :good:
Try flashing the device with a Tmobile Pre-NoDo/NoDo stock rom via the goldcard method and that should fix it.
Goldcard method - requires a Y cable, (either home made or purchased online) SD card reader and a 1gb to 2gb SD card (larger SD card can work but needs to be partitioned to 1gb) download the goldcard tool, goldcard image and the stock rom
Use this Tmobile rom -
https://rapidshare.com/#!download|4...02_Radio_5.65.09.25a_22.45.50.21U.7z|9315|0|0
Follow the goldcard tutorial and download the goldcard tool and image here -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837
This process seems alot more complicated than what it really is...actually it's easy.
Download the goldcard tool and goldcard image and put them in a new folder on the desktop
Download the Tmobile rom and extract (use a program like 7Zip) it to a new folder on the desktop. Connect the SD card with the SDcard reader to the PC. Remove the Ruu_signed.nbh file from the rom and rename it to SCHUIMG.nbh (has to be capitalized) and put it on the 1gb - 2gb SD card (clean/wiped and formatted to FAT32)
Run the goldcard tool and press the Load goldcard image button and choose the goldcard image, the select patch MMC button.
Connect the SD card reader to the Y cable and connect it to the power source, put the device into "Enter USB Host Mode" and connect to the Y cable and the flash process should begin.
That's pretty much it. After the flash process the the device should be fixed and from there you can either connect it to your PC and update the device through Zune or you can install XSPL (RSPL/HSPL) and then flash a custom rom like one of the OS 7.8
If you need any help just let me know!
Loading ...
Thanks xdrc45, I really appreciate your assistance.
I managed to do everything you mentioned ... connected all up and the phone went from "Enter USB Host Mode.." to "Loading..." and then it just stays on that screen.
I left it on for over an hour and still no change. Any ideas?
Your welcome!
I had this same problem when I flashed mine with the goldcard method and I ended up using a different card reader and the flash process started immediately. Good thing is, it's recognizing the connection since it changed to "Loading" which means the Y cable is working.
Try some of these and see if they work -
1. Use a different card reader. If the card reader uses a USB cable (like a printer style USB cable) try a different cable.
2. Try switching around the connections to the Y cable.
3. Sometimes the camera button will get stuck in and prevent the device from flashing.
4. Make sure there are no other files on the SD card other than the SCHUIMG.nbh.
When the flash process doesn't start and it hangs on "Enter USB host mode or Loading" make sure to disconnect the device and pull the battery and re-enter USB host mode to start the process again.
Try these and let me know how it goes!
i have he same problem
hi
I have the same problem and I followed your steps and entered the usb host mode and it freezez in loading screen
as mentioned by you xdrc45 I removed the battery and re-entered the usb host mode stll its not moving further and stuck in Loading....
