so that I get rid of that horrible O2 boot screen, but I keep getting the error 131: Customer ID error with the message to use the correct ROM
Can any please help ...
re-create your goldcard and try again.
I tried creating another gold card (with another micro sd) but i think might have messed it as it says cannot read CID
what can I do?

Try the manual way: http://android.modaco.com/content/general-discussion/305672/creating-a-goldcard/
GoldCard tool was made when I had a Hero, never fully tested on the Desire.
no luck as well with original method
getting cannot read message
Anymore suggestions?

Yeah, I get that too. As new HTC Desire on O2 (not sure which screen version) installing RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.
Goldcard created fine on formatted 2gb card, starts to send rom to phone then errors out. USB debugging mode on.
The error means you haven't created the goldcard correctly.
OK, I made a few mistakes (hey, it's one way to learn!)
1. Goldcard: I missed the fact the CID is returned at the top of the app and thought you had to pull it out of the debug log. So I copied CID instead of reversed CID. I sent the CID and received back the image which I patched and was told was successful even though the CID was wrong.
2. I read on androidforums that some people only had success when using their supplied with phone 4gb card, it was when I was recreating my goldcard with the 4gb sd card I discovered my error with the previous goldcard (issue 1 above)
3. Finally I flashed with an amoled rom, but thankfully quickly found an slcd rom and my desire is now updating to 2.2.
Bye bye O2 shackles, hello froyo!
Question- now that I have my unit back up and running with the gold card, how do I format the SD card for apps2SD and gaining more free RAM?
hi all,
I got a HTC Desire HD from vodafone with hboot 0.85.0018 and rom version 1.75.
I want to debrand this so i made a goldcard (tried with MMC1 and MMC2 as described everywhere). i used modaco's goldcard tool and when i loaded the goldcard img and pressed 'patch MMC' it says succesfully created goldcard.
So i putted the debranded zip on the sdcard. it loads the zip but then gives the error 'main version is older blablab'.
i think this is related to the goldcard right?
I made a goldcard like 5 times again and with another micro sd card but it all didnt work.
so now i cant debrand my desire HD
Please if someone can help me!!
thanks in advance!
Nick
and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003 doesnt work for you?
So I think Vodafone 1.75 is Android 2.2.1. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
On top of the gold card you will also have to follow the procedure for downgrade to 1.32 (Android 2.2). Otherwise you won't be able to flash an older rom version over the existing software.
There is a guide to the downgrade procedure stickied in the development section.
Someone swyped my idea.

oops forgotten. i if course did that procedure too. but stil wont downngrade. its verry weird.
and yes its android 2.2.1
Are you using a low capacity sd card? Gold card won't work on sdhc, only sd. Use a 1 or 2 gb card.
Only other thing I could suggest is using a hex editor to insert the code manually, just to eliminate all possible errors.

yep i used to micro SD cards from 2gb.. and i insrted it manually too lol
Well im gonna try MMC1 on my 1 sd card and MMC2 on my other sd card in minutes and check if it works then .
So i just format as fat32 then make goldcard with MMC2.
Then put the zip on the SD card and insert it in my phone.
Then follow the downgrade process and check if it installs the zip right?
IT WORKS! it starts the update
Dear all,
I have lost my goldcard that I create when my HTC desire GSM phone was brand new, and untouched.
Is it still possible to get my correct CID, my phone has been rooted, and S-off with alpharev 1.8.
I have also flashed a custom rom loaded, but still have a backup of my old virginmobile rom.
Basically I'm trying to create a goldcard, incase I need to go back to stock.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I don't have first hand experience of this so you should wait for confirmation from someone with experience but I'm sure I read recently that a goldcard image is specific to an sdcard but not tied to a particular phone.
If this is correct you should be able to create a new goldcard image for your current sdcard and use that.
Steve
Yes You are correct.. Goldcard has nothing to do with the phone.. but it is a sd card.... so goto this link and create a goldcard anytime..http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/
If you have any problem with adb thing.. then .. search for an app in market called goldcard helper... its free.. and it will give you reverse CID of ur sd card.. which you can use to create .img file.. hope you got it.. reply if its not clear.
Thanks guys, appreciate your help.
New goldcard successfully created. ;-)

The only issue while using a partitioned card as gold card is that the pb99img on it might not be recognized by the update process. The partitions would usually have to be deleted to leave a single fat 32 partition

I have not experienced that issue. I have now a32GB card with 28gb fast 32 followed by 1gb Ext4 partition.

After trying to get back to the original stock rom i missed a step now have
only fastboot so cant create a goldcard (on orange UK) can any one post the gold card img file please or tell me where to download, so I can try and recover my phone.
Help would be very appreciated -thanks
Hello.
1)To create a gold card follow this: http://www.nazriawang.com/2010/04/how-to-create-goldcard-with-ubuntu.html . You don't need your phone to make a gold card, since it is unique by card and not by phone. In conclusion no one could send you the .img file that will work with your SD card. You need to make it.
2)After making the card, try and extract the PB99IMG from the latest RUU WWE 2.29.405.5 and put it in the root of SD. Here it is how: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880268 (2nd post). After this go to hboot (Vol Down + Power) and the hboot should load the RUU and bring you to stock.
Hope this helps.
I used my galaxy tab to get Id off the card and a windows gold card tool to make a 2gb gold card and I have tried 3 differnent PB99IMG file and most ruu and all i get is CID error everytime. I can't root cos the phone won't boot. Also recovery mode is dead so cant do a restore. Theres no Orange Ruu so I take it its totaly bricked than and has to go back to Orange ?
Hey man... dont use goldcard tool.. instead .. do this..
Format your memorycard in 1 single fat32 partition.... put your memory card in your samsung tab....
got to market
search for goldcard helper..
this app will give you your memorycard reverse CID...
