Can someone tell me what's meant by "1，You must have DFT's HSPL installed on your device"
My model ID is pi06110, which seems to fit the requirements.
I just have no idea what to do... Do I need the gold cable thingy...? Will it make my life easier?
Also, I understand I need to flash a ROM to unlock my phone. Is it so? And which ROM is mostly stock, and has no bugs? I just want Bazaar for now..
Sorry for double-posting. Please reply!

care to share your wisdom?
I have the same questions...
uh. sure.. Basically you'll need to order 3 things from Amazon or ebay:
1. female-usb to female-usb switcher
2. Y cable
3. Micro sd reader ( assuming you have a micro sd card)..
When you get all those, make your goldcard like they did here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837
Follow the steps here starting from step 4(IN FIRST COMMENT, NOT ORIGINAL POST), the rest should be okay.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684912
After doing the 10 steps, you can flash any custom ROM you want. All you need to do is put your phone in bootloader mode and use the ROMUPDATEUTILITY.exe that is usually attached with the ROM.
My step by step. Is it correct?

Hi DarkSeL and others!!!
I have a HTC Radar 4G (t-mobile) too. I bought it used on ebay because it was unlocked and i can use it in my country (Spain). Yesterday, I wrote a post but i'm not having any luck with answers.
So, to the point. I have been seeing how fully unlock (jailbreak) and i'm a little confused because there are contradictions.
In my bootloader screen appears this
PI060110
SPL-2.4.1600015
Radio-16.23.05.13_2
I think that my step by step would be this, but I would like OK before starting.
1.- Downgrade to SPL 2.05. I can follow this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837 , but i'm not sure what .nbh image use. Any image is valid? Are there diferences between european and american versions? (this is my main question)
2.- Install HSPL with DFT tutorial. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684912
3.- Find some custom rom based on WP 7.8
Any mistake?
Sorry for my english!!!

Hello guys!
I have read the Wiki, been through whole forum but I still have some questions.
I have a T-Com TC500, the same as Iteq s200. It is a G4 version. with original SW installed on it.
I would like to upgrade it to a newer ROM because I would like to get English language instead of german.
I read on the forum that one option is with the shell tool.
The other option should be directly with the RomUpdateUtility which comes in ie. Fantastic b4 step 1. What is then step 2?
There seems to be even the third option also with RUU but with using only .nbf file from the ROM.
I am totally confused about what I should do first.
I also read that it is reccomended to do the ROM dump on SD card but it is not possible with locked CID - what to do in order to avoid bricking your device.
I know that there are quite a lot of questions in my post, but would appreciate if you could help me.
THX, Zmelkoow
Fantastic Mobiz Step 1 write Splash Screen and new Ext_Rom with a WM5 ... its for 100% cleaning the QTEK. they use this way ... i dont know why ... but it works!
Step 2 write only the WM6 OS!! this type of writeing roms is easyer to handle ... you doesnt need any steps to build a rom ... save time!
you need both steps!
About CID ... you have right! Without CID unlocked device you cant make a dump ... but you dont need them! If you can enter the bootloader ... you can flash any rom. if you cant enter the bootloader ... sd-card is useless!
Tc500 same
Dear guys I have a TC500 same.Could you explain me what I have to do?What you mean for "write Splash Screen and new Ext_Rom" Do you mean that I have to put the part 1 of mobitz in a sd card a into the phone?and launch the installation?is to be the phone switch on or switch of,while I insert the sd card?Or other method?Thank you
Please, CID-Unlock first the phone and secure the ROM!!

Is your device locked to a specific mobile carier? Then you need to Unlock for using with other cariers.
Not sure if ROM upgrades require unlocking but they need HardSPL which is often found along with the ROM upgrade or in this forum separately.

hi. My device is NOT locked by a mobile carier. What is hardSPL?
For "unlock" your device you need the Athena Unlocker:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315831
Without this you cant update an other ROM to your device.
Here is a wiki page about the hardslp (for hermes, sorry):

bye

There are plenty of threads on the subject - and everything is covered. If not then post questions here.

All I wanted was to have some direct (fast) chat. SORRY
I have bought an original HTC X7500 (not locked by any mobile carier, i think). All I would like to know are some basis steps WHAT I need to do in order to upgrade to 3.0 PK.
I ve just checked something and can give the following infomation. Maybe you guys can make something of this and what I will need to do:
ATHE100
IPL-v1.00
ATHE100
SPL-v1.10.0000
Have you actually read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=346221 ?
there are tutorials including a video already on this available on this subject, read the thread that has been suggested and do a search for unlocker.
sorry if that sounds rude but theres plenty been written on this already lots of times, without people having to repeat themselves over and again
the video is very self explanatory
again guys, I m really sorry
So if I understand correctly I need OliPro's hardspl OR unlocker found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316846 and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315831.
Is it correct if I say that the unlocker does a SIMunlock AND CIDunlock, and the hardspl only does CIDunlock?
So now I only have to do is find out IF my device is SIMlocked or not? Do you maybe give me a hint how to check this?
Correct things if I m wrong please, and again, sorry......
If it's an HTC it won't be SIM locked - only carriers lock the phones to themselves.

1. Go to wiki, read everything concerning unlocker, upgrading rom, and radio. Read it carefully. If you're completely clueless, it's not going to give you a complete walkthrough, but should be read.
2. Go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316846
Read first post and download Athena wrapper. Put all downloads in a folder you can easily find and distinguish from any roms or unlockers you may download.
3. Go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319993
Download a radio. I'm using 1.50.00.00, i'm not sure where the new one is. Try different ones though, once your comfortable with the process, they say some radios work better in different areas.
4. Go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=346221
Read ALL of the first to posts. Download the ROM file. I would suggest the add-ons too, and see which ones you like.
5. You will have to extract all of these files. You will need Winrar to unpack the rom.
6. Backup any data you want to keep from your Athena. Remove mini SD and SIM. Hard reset your Athena, and select to format microdrive.
7. Be sure your Athena is fully charged. I don't think it has to be a complete charge, but it won't hurt. At least 60%.
8. Turn off all energy save options on your Athena. You don't want it to power down halfway through the operation. You will also need to disable any sleep\hibernatin modes on your PC.
9. You will need ActiveSync 4.5, Windows xp, and .net2.0 framework with all servicepacks. If your not sure about the framework, go to micrsoft and search for a download. Run the installer, if it says its already installed, select 'repair.' This is more than likely not necessary, but it won't hurt anything. Connect Athena to PC, and wait until its fully synchronized.
10. Run the Athena Wrapper. Follow all instructions. Its very simple, but do EXACTLY as it says.
11. Run the RUU file in the radio folder, follow all instructions.
12. Run the RUU file in the AP3 rom folder. Follow all instructions.
13. If desired, extract and run the add-ons.
14. Donate to Athena Project, or Pawel, or Olipro, or somebody.
15. If you screw this up, don't tell anyone, I wouldn't anyway.
Hi all!
I am currently on Mango 7720 with bootloader 4.5 and so I can't use HSPL.
I read that with an Y-cable it is possible to do it.
I need a stock rom for my mozart, as my firmware rev ends with 111 I need TMO-DE (T-Mobile DE). So this are my planned steps:
1. Connecting PC - SD card - Mozart using Y-cable, flashing it with this rom on the SD card: RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.32.111.01_5.65.09.25_22.45.50_ RELEASE (taken from this thread)
2. Next step will be HSPL my device (thanks to step #1 it's bootloader is below 4.x) following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647
3. Now i can flash any custom mozart rom (hopefully).
Any reply if i am correct will be appreciated - the ones pointing to a misthought even more ;-)
Thanks,
UP
with 4.5 I think it's possible without a Y-cable, I didn't use one. I think y-cable is only necessary for 5.XX and higher.
I simply put device in bootloader screen (holding vol down whilst switching on) connected it to my computer and waited for USB to appear on the bottom, finally I flashed an older rom, like your RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.32.111.01_5.65.09.25_22.45.50_ RELEASE
If this works you should have a 1.32 bootloader, you can then install RSLP/HSLP
If you need a Y-cable, it will not let you flash the ROM, as far as I know though this only happens with post 5.XX bootloaders
Hope that answers your question. Obviously make sure you follow the instructions for RSLP and HSLP carefully and fully understand that if something goes wrong (powercut etc) you have effectively bricked your device.
Otherwise best of luck.
EDIT: Obviously if you plan to use the RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.32.111.01_5.65.09.25_22.45.50_ RELEASE, make sure your phone's original rom was TMO_DE (I assume that is T-Mobile Germany) Otherwise you risk bricking your device.

Thanks for your reply!
In the HSPL/RSPL thread i read that it will brick your device when using Mango ROM with 4.xx/5.xx Bootloader.
That's why i intend to use the Y-Cable. I would be lucky if i would'nt have to.
So you think I can directly flash the old NoDo ROM to downgrade the bootloader without the Y-Cable and then install RSPL/HSPL? Wow thanks for this useful information, makes it a lot more easier!
My Firmwarerevision ends in .111 - that's why i think it's TMO DE. Is there any other way to tell this?

That's what I did, as long as it's the same branding it will downgrade your bootloader to the one in the rom.

[GUIDE] Step-by-step instructions for debranding and HSPL for AT&T Titans
If you have a debranded International Version then just follow the DFT Thread
[DFT] HSPL for HTC WP7 Second Generation
Edit: alright that was a really bad question what my questions is. When it says debranding the phone do i use the HTC Eternity EU official rom 1.09.401.02? Then replace that one with the one in the HSPL rar?

question. The first time through do i use the european eternity rom? and then folow the steps in gold card 2?
Click to expand...

To Debrand an AT&T Titan, Yes. Some claim it won't make a difference, but if you do have an AT&T titan it's better to debrand it now like that all the AT&T crap is gone and if you get stuck on SPL2.5 atlease your running an international rom.
okay so i run through with the European rom and then with the eternity in the RAR? Then run HSPl and then load up dynamics?

Yes.
Flash the Europe ROM you have.
Then once done verify in the bootloader that your SPL was changed just so you know.
Then attemp the steps pointed out in the Threads i posted.
Flash DFT SPL 2.5
Run HSPL.
Go over the threads just to make sure you have everything after each step.
Thank you very much! Yeah im reading them over while this 410 MB download is going. I didn't want to make a silly mistake so thank you on such a quick reply! And last question is it okay to plug the usb of the Y cable into the charger and plug that into the wall?

Yea its fine... Only reason why a Y-Cable gets connected to a Computer is so the usb devices(goldcard) has power to turn on since the Phone itself doesn't provide it. So whether you plug it to a PC or the wall its the same thing.
Oh okay, so when all is done is the custom rom done through the gold card too?
And also what custom rom would you recommend or are they mostly all the same?

That's up to you... If a rom you download has the RUU with it then flash it via the computer if not then fire up the goldcard
Im using a usb flashdrive instead of a micro sd card and the phone is just still in Enter usb mode... could it be because of the flash drive?

Could be. I personally used SanDisk flash drives... One works while the other doesn't.
Try formatting and Patching it with the GoldCard tool and make sure whatever your trying to flash is "" ETERIMG.nbh" with not else on the flashdrive but that file. If it still doesn't work try another usb cable.
I guess ill wait for my micro sd card reader to come in. And btw my SPL is 1.10... Should I still go ahead and debrand?

It's your choice, but it would benefit you in the long run.
I just got my micro sd card reader and i set everything up and it still just say enter USB Host mode...

hello has all, in particular to developers.

I need to figure out if the developers in the near future will be able to pull off the downgrade or another system to go back with SPL.

If you have a European device, you'll have no trouble following the tutorial, but if you hold a device acquired by a company, you must perform the Goldcard method. With this latter I mean that if your device is T-Mobile, you will need to use the goldcard.
On the other hand you can ease the problem you displayed when you make the goldcard method, because the problem you have or visualize on the screen of your device when making the goldcard, we do not know until you do not mention any error . Because it can be bad cable connection made to the goldcard.

Exactly, I was hit with my 3 devices HTC Radar "Free, Movistar and Vodafone" and with the same bootloader 4.6. Try it with another USB flash drive or other card reader, but before you buy or try different SD cards or other flash drive, you might have a bad connection in home goldcard cables, as always seems to fail for this problem.
Try to reconnect the cables again and advised welding.
