Hi Guys,
im trying to flash my HTC with HardSPLv7 following the www.mrvanx.org guide funny enough what happen is that the installer starts everything fine once the mobile device is going into the colored screen the installer waits for about 1 min. and then telling me that the installer is unable to connect to my device. Im using windows vista, and windows Mobile device At the moment I have windows 5 on the device
I have never been able to flash HardSPLv7 using Vista. Same result. Unable to connect to device once in bootloader, although the HTC drivers have been updated. It works fine with other roms or radio upgrades. I had to use XP to flash it. Didn't search for a workaround as I still can boot XP.

Really works for me... wath do you do?
Have followed the tuto. Everything starts as usual. The TyTN goes into bootloader, but then the installer waits for some seconds and finally displays an error. Using XP it went fine. So I didn't search any longer. But my Vista should be fine as I have already flashed several roms and radio versions.

Well, both are right, using Vista and following the MxVanx guide to upgrade HardSPLv7 dosn't work, cause last HardSPL force to use SSPL every time, and you can't mix two process...
So i think you can upgrade the HardSPL using Vista in this steps ...
1. Put SSPL in the PDA and execute it (tri-color screen) You can get SSPL from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293651
2. Connect the PDA and disable/kill WDCM
3. Download last CustomRUU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298737
4. put last CustomRUU and RUU_signed.nbh from HardSPLV7 in same folder
5. execute RUUWarper.exe and select only 1.09 bootloader (cause this is BL version SSPL is based on). Don't select "It's HardSPL?" if you don't have previous version of HardSPL.
6. Next....

The mrvanx guide is the best, the Vista help will enable you to flash, I do it myself no problem.
I wonder if it's possible to flash it using the sdcard method? (renaming the RUU_signed.nbh to HERMIMG.nbh?)

no its not... hence the term "Hard" in HardSPL... hence cannot he overwritten... you need to use SSPL when overwriting the SPL...
Thanks for the quick answer!
I was just wondering about it since I just can't get vista to upgrade my Hermes... (The HTC USB sync device doesn't appear in the device manager, even though it connects fine with the WMDC)
Well, I guess i'll look for a Xp box.
Thanks again
Vista Sucks
I used a xp pc and just worked fine thanx for all your feedback and help

Its for the sd card method, don't need pc.
You can also use this method to flash a new OS but just leave out steps 5 and 6. No need for sspl.exe after Hard SPL is installed.
Cheers...
I had trouble with v7 as well..there IS now a version 9...which worked great with vista 32-bit
Hard SPL V9 is a developer SPL, unless you are developing softwares and ROMs for your Hermes its not recommended to flash this. There is NO advantage flashing V9 over V7 for the person who just wants to flash. In some cases it actually caused confusion and problems. You are allowed to use whatever you want but there is a reason we advocate Hard SPL V7 and NOT Hard SPL V9.
hermes fiddling
I am new to hermes as I only used a wizard before. The HERMIMG/ Wrapper.exe spl update works fine. I got the same communication error 260 as shown above but I did not hit quit and the ROM flashed perfectly. The info on ppc screen should take precedence over what's on the PC screen. I also had to shut down all internal security features from McAfee, not just the internet firewalls.
Please find attached a SSPL (also known as JumpSPL) for Cavalier. Running it will allow you to flash a HardSPL. The HardSPL is a SPL (bootloader) which can not be overwritten and which allows you to flash roms (both official and cooked roms) and rom parts (radio, OS, splash, etc). If you want to replace the HardSPL you must run the SSPL again and then flash another SPL.
Make sure your device is application unlocked. If not, run the attached SDA unlocker on your PC and reboot your device when prompted.
Connect your device with a usb cable and make sure activesync is green and ready with syncing. Unzip the files in a single directory on your PC and run "sspl.bat". Confirm each step by pressing enter and also check the display of your device.
If all goes well the display changes to the tricolor bootloader screen or it may turn grey, black or white. Disconnect and reconnect usb cable and wait 20 seconds. The activesync will disconnect. Unzip "HardSPL-Cavalier-1.0-JockyW.zip" and flash the HardSPL by running "ROMUpdateUtility.exe".
Rom cooking for Cavalier can now start.
Have fun!

I am seing the same behavior.
IMHO this phone is basically abandonware. HTC shipped a quad band world phone but is offering essentially zero support or updates for it.

Well, using the jumpspl I was able to get the WWE rom to at least try to install. Then it hangs with an "update error" code 262 and quasi-bricks the device. Running the RUU for the hardspl un-blocks it.
At this time all I've managed to do is replace the HTC boot logo with the dopod boot logo.
Edit: success. Key to success: RTFM and a bit of reading between the lines.
1- Run the jumpSPL batch file. Make sure the screen on the phone has not blanked. Watch it. When asked if it is OK to run the jumpspl, say yes. Then observe at the bottom of the display what appears to be the top of a button on the warning screen: click the center d-pad button for OK.
2- Now you should see the rainbow colored rom loader and text on the screen indicateing it is the "jump" variant. Look at the bottom of the display do you see the text "USB"? If not unplug and re-plug the usb cable. The text "USB" should show up now.
3- Run the hardspl RUU package. It should work now.
4- After a reboot of the device and what not you can now flash the latest WWE build from the FTP server or whatever cooked bit syou migth be trying.
I run the RUU updater step to step and see this error, what problem

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU DO TOU YOUR PHONE HOWEVER I WILL DO AS MUCH AS I CAN TO HELP YOU FIX IT
GSM ONLY!!! NO CMDA USERS
Note: This TUT was written from my expeience with a DIAM100!!! I do not know if the files included in this TUT are compatible with Diamonds other than the 100
This TUT will cover complete flashing of everything on your Diamond, I wrote this cause it took me 2 hours to get my Diamond hacked so i could reap the benefits of the community:
1. Hard-SPL - Post 1 & 2
2. Rom - Post 3
3. Radio - Post 3
__________________________________________________________
Note: Doing this will Hard Reset your phone, any data not on your 4GB internal will be deleted!!! If you want to make a backup, I recomend you use SPB Backup Free Trial and save the EXE created to your 4GB

What Is Hard-SPL?
Hard SPL in computer terms is the BIOS, it lets you recover your device if you incorectly flash your device. This bootloader was developed by OliNex and comes in to flavours Dev and Signed, i have attached the files at the bottom of this thread. It is essential if you want to put cooked material on your device. if you install this IT WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY, how ever, you can still flash the Stock SPL back should your diamond need repairing.
How Do I Flash It?
If you want to restore the stock SPL, I recomend you make a note of which version you have, this is easy and simple
1. Reset your Diamond
2. Press and hold the Volume Down button on left side of your device, it shold display some numbers and some text, the number should be between 1.23 and 1.37
3. To get back to Winmo, simply press the reset button
With the OliNex SPL's, all you need to do is charge your Diamond to 50% or more, connect via activesync / Device manager on a 32 BIT WINDOWS SYSTEM (XP Only) !!!
Create a new folder with no spaces in it, E.G "C:\\Diamimg_OliNex" , unzip the files you have downloaded from the bottom of the page into this new folder
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then, with your Diamond connected, run "RomUpdateUtility.EXE" and follow the on screen intructions
IF YOU UNPLUG YOUR DIAMOND WHILE THIS APPLOCATION IS RUNNING, YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE!!!
The computer should be displaying a progress bar, it should jump from 0% to 100%
IT WON'T TAKE 10 MINS LIKE IT SAYS IT WILL
A message should appear sayying that your phone has been sucessfully updated
When you see this, Congrats, You have flashed Hard-SPL to your phone
To confirm this, simply repeat the steps you did to check your Stock SPL, It should say, 1.4* OliNex
Flashing back to stock SPL is in the next post
Note: Doing this will Hard Reset your phone, any data not on your 4GB internal will be deleted!!! If you want to make a backup, I recomend you use SPB Backup Free Trial and save the EXE created to your 4GB
__________________________________________________________
To flash back to the Stock SPL, YOU MUST FIRST FLASH THE STOCK ROM AND RADIO, SPL MUST BE FLASHED LAST!!! You will also need the SPL pack which is included in the first post, when we flashed Hard SPL, I mentiod the number of your Stock SPL, if you still have it you can the Stock SPL. This useful because if your supplier is trying to fix it, and bumps into bootloader, it will say "1.40 OliNex", and he will say "This has voided your Warranty". If it says "1.37 HTC" he will say "I will repair it now". Anyway, to replace the Hard SPL, there are two ways. If you have the Un-Signed SPL, you have to use the file "Un Signed SPL Restorer", when you have chosen your Stock SPL, extract the SPL Restorer to a top level of a Local HDD, copy the SPL file into this folder with the other files. Then rename it "RUU_Signed.NBH" without the quotes. Run "RomUpdateUtility.EXE" and follow the on screen intructions

When you see this, Congrats, You have flashed Stock-SPL to your phone and deleted Hard-SPL Un Signed
If you have a signed OliNex SPL, the restoration process is slightly different
The proces is exactly the same except instead of using "Un Signed Hard SPL Restorer", you simply download "Stock Restorer For Signed"
Flashing ROM's
Ok, this is the easy one
There are several methods of flashing ROM's, Using RUU, MTTY and my personal fave, Internal Storage Method, I will cover all of these in this post
Some ROM's I recomend
1. The latest of Winmo products, L3V5Y's 6.5.3 Build 28*** ROM, it's fast, stable and light! Only a 60MB download, which is pretty good. This requires Unsigned Hard SPL
2. GEN Y's 6.1 Manila Rom, this rom is very stable. It hasn't got the 6.5 ROM in it, but it has the latest version of Manila / Touch Flo (The Fancy Interface That Is Installed On The Stock ROM)
1: Internal Storge
This is the easiest, quickest and safest way to flash ROM's, the ROM is a single file (*.NBH), you need to rename it "DIAMIMG.NBH" without quotes
then follow these steps to copy over
1. Plug your phone into your PC
2. Select "Disk Drive"
3. Copy DIAMIMG.NBH to the top level of your phone
When this has completed copying, you must reset and hold Volume down and the Back button, you will see a quick Tri Colour screen and then you will see "Loading" the screen will change and it will say "Press Power Button To Start Update Image", after you press the power button a progress bar will appear at the bottom of the screen, when it has completed, it will say "Update Sucessful", peform a soft reset and enjoy your new ROM!
2: MTTY
MTTY is HTC app that lets you modify the contents of your devices ROM from a command script, you can't actually flash a rom with it, but you can prepare your device with it, if you only flash with internal flash you may get a bad flash, for example a read only file may have copied incorrectly and corrupted the ROM memory. MTTY will format and fix this.
FOR VISTA + WIN 7 6 BIT SYSTEMS, SEE BOTTOM FOR DRIVER INSTALL OTHER WISE YOU MAY DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE!!!
To prepare your Diamond for PC or Storage flashing:
YOU MUST HAVE HARD-SPL ON YOUR DIAMOND
Internal:
After you have downloaded your new ROM, copy it to your Internal Storage and rename DIAMIMG.NBH like you did with the method above. You need to download MTTY which is attached to this post, place your device in bootloader (Reset and Vol Down) Run MTTY after extracting to a top level of a local HDD, a list of options should appear, change it from Com1 to USB, if USB is not on this list, try disabling "Allow USB Connections" in activesync and restart MTTY, when you have selected USB, MTTY will start, just click ok when a option window pops up, after this, wait for a window to pop up and press Enter on your PC keyboard, CMD or USB should appear. I will write the commands then a line below I will write what they do
set 14 0
This tells MTTY to reboot when complete
task 29
MTTY will format your ROM
NOTE: after typing task 8 (Below), very quickly unplug USB and hold down Volume Down and Back to trigger flash
task 8
Reboot Device
PC:
Same Layout As Above
set 14 0
This tells MTTY to reboot when complete
task 29
MTTY will format your ROM
NOTE: after typing task 8 (Below), very quickly unplug USB and hold down Volume Down to trigger Bootloader Mode
task 8
Reboot Device
Plug back into PC, serial should change to USB
Run RUU.exe (Included With Rom) and follow on screen steps (This one will take 10 mins)
MTTY On X64 Bit Systems
Before you do MTTY with a Vista / Win 7 64 Bit system, you must install drivers
First, disable driver signing HERE
Then download and install drivers from HERE
RUU
Note: if the rom is an *.EXE, you dont need to do this as that Rom is an RUU
1. Download your Rom
2. Download the "DiamondCustomRUU.ZIP" from my next post
3. Copy both to the same folder
4. Connect phone via ASync or WMDM
5. Run the Ruu .EXE
6. Follow the steps in my next post
Radio:
This bit is about flashing your radio, people flash their radio to get better reception in the area, if your diamond was sold to you as a TRI Band phone, you can upgrade it to QAUD Band for free
THIS DOES NOT UNLOCK YOUR RADIO FOR USE WITH OTHER SIM CARDS!!!
There are plenty of Radios floating around, one recomended around the forum is 1.00.25.05, this enables QUAD Band, use little power and gets great reception. You can check your radio when your phone is booting, it's the first line of red text. If you have radio version 1.00.25.05, or if you get good signal and good quality voice calls, you don't have to update it
DO NOT TRY AND FLASH A RADIO FROM ANOTHER PHONE!!!
How To Update:
First download a Radio from here
Then download RUU from the bottom of this page
Extract both to the same folder
Run RUU, Check the box and click next
After you have done the things listed in the picture, tick the checkbox and click next
Click Update
The RUU will tell you what version you are going from to what version you are going to
Click Next
DON'T UNPLUG YOUR DIAMOND OR DO ANYTHING ON YOU PC WHILE THE RADIO IS UPDATING
When PC reaches 100% DON'T UNPLUG YOUR DIAMOND, Click finish and wait for your Diamond to reset

This is good work and should be rewarded, we should have these guides for every device!
Having this information all in one thread is really a relieve, tx for your efforts Badwolve!.
Maybe this forum will end up now with a little less ' help....my diamond is bricked' threads, so no waste but gain of space huh

Badwolve - Good to see your consolidated tutorial. Just wanted to share that mtty works directly with Windows 7 (x64) as well now. There are two possible methods for this (tried both and both work):
Eugenia's signed x64 drivers
Disabling/Ignoring driver signing using gpedit

Hmm, seems like your device hasn't been hard spl'd. Can you confirm that you've done so?
My device is HardSPL-ed I've installed 1.30 OliNex, and on the three color screen there is a text that says "1.30 OliNex" so it is spl-ed
And when I try to Flash from PC the custom RUU and phone bar are stuck at 0% and after a wile i got 262 error on ruu. see the picture.

May i ask what rom you are using?
You will probably need Dev Hard SPL as not many Roms are signed by OliNex, i this problem persists ater install of Dev SPL, Try internal flash

I started a new thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611146 where the problem is detailed explained.
Please review that thread and help me if you can.
this is great!! but im kinda confused with the part where you said
the top of your internal storage?...
do u mean the mobile device when it pops up in ur pc or removable disk?.....thnks!
I tried installing cooked ROM into my P3300 today
at first, i downloaded a new SPL which turned my version into 1.11.cmon
and then i downloaded Artemis Touch Vanilla 4.02
I followed the instructions in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299154
except it said nothing about where to put the extracted windows.nb so i just put it in the upgrade program's folder
the upgrade program ran as it did, and i got a success message
i made a hard reset to my P3300, and the normal splash screen showed up, but this time it said:
IPL 1.14.0001
SPL 1.11.cmon
GSM 02.67.90
OS 3.13.0.0
i think the OS version has changed, and either way, the text position did, previously it has been one line bellow the current layout
but either way, the phone can run like that for hours, it just wont move
is this what you call a bricked phone?
is there a way to solve it?
cheers
yair
anyone? please?
im killing myself here, i just got the phone(even if its old) and ive already ruined it
Hi
Do not worry. You will get it working again.
Google for Artemis factory rom and run it. It has the Rom + the radio rom too. Just run it.. But yes before that you need to run uspl.exe since its SPL 1.11.cmon.
Try searching and download it. If you cant find it I ll give you the link on monday..okay
You should run it from USB mode..

hey dude,

this didnt help, it just tells me to download the rom:
a.my rom isnt in there, there is no specification for IPL 1.14.0001, the closest one is 1.14.0000 and its in spanish, so its definately isnt mine, what do i do?
b.i have no idea how to install it, or what to do with the SPL
and besides, i cant even connect with my device, so how am i supposed to run it with USB? i dont get active-sync, and the "apparel mobile" folder is empty, meaning no connection, so im really dumbed here...i have no idea what to do...

you should be able to flash any rom to your device regardless of spl = uspl 1.11.cmon.
*try flashing a differant rom, eg Andrew82 rom (also download the custom ruu for it too.. instead of original rom, try a differant custom rom)

put your device into bootloader dude. post 3
now connect to pc - device should now say usb.
run and click through the options for the custom ruu, ruu should be in a folder with anderw82 .nbh rom file.

i held the voice button, and pressed the the reset button, all it did was...to make a restart, and im stuck again at the HTC logo, saying:
IPL 1.14.0001
SPL 1.11.cmon
GSM 02.67.90
OS 3.13.0.0
i tried connecting it to the USB now, it didnt do anything, the computer didnt even recognize a connection was inserted, first i need to find a way to connect it, later ill worry about the ROM
I've got the very same problem. I have tried to flash official HTC unbranded ROM to my Artemis and now I'm stuck at boot screen. My computer won't recognize that I have connected Artemis. It recognizes it only in bootloader mode but when I try to flash any ROM (no matter if it is official, modified or custom) or even radio, the flashing program gives me error at 3%.
well, you got me there, im stuck just as you are
i cant even connect my device using USB only, the computer wont recognize it, anyone?
...
when the device is in bootloader and connected to pc, it is connected = not by active sync/wmdc but device is connected (bootloader should show "usb").
you will be able to flash a rom.
some artemis devices are put into bootloader by diffearnt combinations of buttons pressed/held.
so if a single press of the soft reset button and holding the voice button does not work.
try:
holding the voice button + holding the volume down button and then single press the soft reset button.
*whats the error number on 3%?

well, thats a bit hard, ill edit when i manage to do that
EDIT: didnt work, i dont think my phone HAS a bootloader option
how should a bootloader look? is it just the normal startup flash screen?
BTW, i can only run the RomUpdateUtility.exe, and not uspl_start, is this normal? because the RUU isn't doing anything, actually...no ROM has changed on my device, and it is still bricked, i think it is cid locked
...
bootloader should look something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
you will definatly have a bootloader option
sometimes a device wont go into bootloader mode, if your device wont go into bootloader then the way around it is to download MTTY and use that, this has the ability to put your device into bootloader.
USPL 1.11.CMON ROM UPGRADE TIPS&TRICKS - post 4
IF YOUR DEVICE WONT GO INTO BOOTLOADER, USE MTTY.
download MTTY
1) set MTTY open port settings..
2) command MTTY to reset your device into BOOTLOADER.
Cmd>password BsaD5SeoA
Cmd>ruurun 0
Cmd>ResetDevice
DO NOT COPY AND PASTE, YOU MUST TYPE MANUALY.
*your device will now reset and be in bootloader mode.
Rn
in the options form:
the only thing i had to change was the RTS/CTS and USB
so i set the RTS/CTS
but the USB wasn't on that list
so i tried writing it down instead of selecting it
and i got this error:
USB port can not open
...
never mind about mtty, i think the port setting for usb must be set on device too. (which your currently unable to do)
i made a mistake in one of my previous posts, the info was not correct:

ALLLLLRIGHTY THEN!
finally, the device is at bootloader and connected as USB
now, i need a step by step tutorial, because i dont want to repeat my mistakes, how do i flash a rom?
and can i use a 6.1 factory rom even though my factory rom should be 5?
i want a 6.1 rom, i currently have Artemis Touch Vanilla 4.02 which is the one i want to install(only if i can, if i cant, ill go back to a factory rom)

woop! lol
your spl is 1.11.cmon i would say you can flash any rom for artemis.
tbh the factory rom should only be used as a fail safe when no rom will flash, basicly so people can redo uspl and flash a custom rom.
personally, i would only use 6.1 roms as 6.5 tend to be slow, also considering that you have an old device and that 6.1 runs alot faster and smoother. (glad your choice is for 6.1)
whenever anyone asks for a rom suggestion for this device i always suggest:
ANDREW82 6.1 ROM
youl need to download the cam fix.cab
download Andrew82 rom.
i tried many roms for the artemis and this is the rom i found 1, the fastest and 2, most reliable.
*if you download a rom and there is only one file (.NBH) in the download then download this CUSTOM RUU..
download
(FACT: Andrew82 rom will just be the .NBH rom file so you will need this ruu!)
charge your device to 50+%
(the RUU wont work unless the battery is above 50%)
now put your device into bootloader.
connect device to your pc via usb.
open the RUU (rom update utility) and click through the options.
(the options are just to say there is a risk of breaking your device and bla bla bla)
your device would now display a gray/blue screen with a loading bar.
when the RUU is finished, you should have a success screen displayed on the RUU.
(your device should now restart and load windows mobile.)
if you get an error on the RUU, post the error number here and ill tell you why you got that error.
(usually if the update stops at 3% its because you need uspl)
there is lots of programs for artemis.
ive uploaded some programs for other users so its definatly worth a look here.
Rn
HAAAAAAAAAHAAA!
it worked!
oh, you're brilliant
altough the loading time is quite big, ill manage with it, BTW: do i still have my solitare and bubble breaker inside? because i cant install games on my phone, i mean, i can install them, but they wont run
...
lol cheers dude
erm, i think the games (solitaire/bubblebreaker) should be in the start menu/programs/games folder.
but if they are not there then Andrew82 has not included them into his rom.
its wierd that your other games dont run, does it give an error?
*if i was you i would hard reset your device then try again.
1) Press and hold both soft keys
2) press the stylus/reset button to reset the device.
3) Press Green call button to restore manufacturer default, or press any other key to cancel.
if hard reset does not change anything: reinstall .net framework 3.5.
for java based games: download jblendjava.
Rn
well, either the rom or jblend did it, now the games wont close, however, i cant enter them again, i can only play once after install, how do i find all the games? i tried the file explorer, inside the midlet folder there were setups for the games, but not the games themselves, so, what did i do wrong this time?

it was probably jblendjava that fixed it, so i guess your using java games.
go to taskmanager and Terminate the prosess you want to close.
i dont actually use or play java games, infact i dont play any games on my device, however the few games i did play on my artemis are attatched below.
i do know about the minamise issue though, that happens a lot with java games so i suggest not using java games.lol
go to your games folder in the start menu, all the game links should be installed to that location, sometimes they install to the programs folder..
or run jblendjava and the games might be selectable from a list. (im not sure)
you could even search the program files folder for the .exe of the game.

Evening,
This a tutorial about how to easily downgrade your HTC Phones bootloader to install hspl and custom roms.
FAQ:
1) What is a GoldCard? A) It's a method to easily flash ROM files etc.
2) My phone performs an infinite reboot-loop, what to do? Answer: A couple of reboots are normal, if the phone keeps rebooting for more than 5 minutes, try this: a) Be sure to format the card to fat32 b) Try another sd-card/flashdrive or a different card reader. c) Check your cable configuration.
3) Can I fix a bricked bootloader with this method? Answer: Yes! If you're able to get into USB-Host Mode it's possible. If you're not able to get into USB Host Mode with a bricked bootloader, post a comment with you're device details, we might be able to help you out.
4) Only shows "Entering USB Mode" Answer: This means your phone can't access the file. A) Try another cable configuration B) Check if card is formatted to fat32 C) try another cable, card reader or card. Some cards/flash-drives just don't work. I highly recommend to use a SD/MicroSD card, since they're way more likely to work.
What you need
Hardware:
- Micro SD Card or SD Card. Some users succeeded using flashdrives (for example USB-sticks), but I highly recommend SD Cards/MicroSD Cards., since most flashdrives don't work.
- Card reader
- Y-Cable USB
- USB Gender Changer
Files:
- Goldcard-tool
- My custom goldcard.img
- Your device-specific .nbh image.
You need to download a nodo rom for your device and extract Ruu_signed.nbh via Winrar. Rename it to
-Sparimg.nbh for Spark (Trophy)
Rom-download: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427904
-Spawimg.nbh for Verizon/CDMA Spark
Rom-download: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427904

So let's start:
Make sure you're battery is above 50%
Format the MicroSD Card to fat32
Copy the .nbh Image to the MicroSD Card
Launch Goldcard Tool
While ignoring the cid box, choose "Load GoldCard.img" and select the goldcard.img you just downloaded
Press "Patch MMC" and wait for confirmation
Unplug the MicroSD Card
Connect the Y-Cable and the USB-gender-changer like shown in the picture
Connect the MicroSD-Card
Connect your phone
Connect the y-cable to an ordinary usb port
Hold Power+Camera+VolumeDown until the USB Host Mode appears
Wait about 30 min until the update completes. The phone may reboot a couple of times.
After the update completed, unplug your phone and reboot

Now your spl should be downgraded.
Now you can install HSPL, visit this thread for further details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647
After that, you can install any custom roms. You'll find those in the Development section of your Device forum in XDA. For example for Tropy here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=812

I think this is something that we done to our HD7 right? (If i'm not mistaken)
It can be done to any gen1 HTC phone to safely downgrade the SPL (in order tin install RSPL/HSPL and custom ROMs).
I believe there is a thread about goldcard somewhere in the forum.

There are few ones. I credited them in the OP.
The point why I wrote this guide is, that the previous guides often included unnecessary steps, they were sometimes inconsistent between each other, not very detailed, you needed to build yourself custom wires, and manually find the necessary files yourself.
So I wrote an easy, minimal, noob-friendly guide.
anyway I like your thread and post.
I'll have to order the parts to try this GoldCard method next week.
Can you please add information to your first post about Spark_W (CDMA Trophy for Verizon Wireless)?
Image name: SPAWIMG.nhb
Rom image link is exact same as Spark, since Football also includes Spark_W roms in the list. Also note that SPL downgrade for Spark_W is from ver 2.x to ver 1.03.
I plan on buying the stuff to try this method next week, since it is much easier then regular GoldCard method, and I've been too lazy to solder my hacked up USB y-cable.
So this custom GoldCard.img doesn't require a serial number of an SDCard? That's awesome
Spark_W users, even though they have a downgrade method using roms, still might need GoldCard method to fix half-bricked bootloaders.. which I actually found a repeatable scenerio that might become common for some shortly.
If your setup works for Spark_W, then it will totally become my go-to guide to point people at, since it removes the need for a phone, and its in a simple and easy to understand guide with links to items that make it work.
Only thing I would add (which was one the reasons I was going to write a guide to GoldCard) would be.. at the start of your guide:
1) Q. What is a GoldCard? A) A specially formatted SDCard used to flash a stock rom to a phone when normal flashing methods do not work.
2) Q. Why would I need to make a GoldCard? A) To downgrade your SPL when you are unable to flash an SPL downgrade using other methods, or when your bootloader becomes "halfbricked" and will not allow you to flash using a PC and a USB cable.
Great job, and I'll be bookmarking this for future use... and probably editing my HSPL Spark_W guide to point at this.
Thanks, I'll include that.
so my phone is one of them bricked ones.. it works fine, but the device doesnt get recognized in bootloader mode.. will this method help me downgrade the rom and fix the bootloader? today i tried a couple of times to enter usb host mode, but with no success.. does the phone have to be connected to a pc when i'm trying to enter host mode? if i press vol up+camera+power, the phone goes in... download mode? i dont really what mode it is.. but it shows a mobile phone, usb cable and a laptop.. will this mode work? and last... for how long i need to hold vol down+camera+power to enter usb host mode? thnx for your replies in advance

I had same problem with my HTC 7 Pro (bricked) and on last december and, if I remember well, with goldcard I was able to get back my bootloader.
Then I could HSPL my device and install custom rom!
Have a look also to the video in the third or fourth post of this thread to see how to connect sd reader, phone etc etc...

I haven't tested, but I'm 95% sure that this method will fix your phone.
To enter USB Host Mode, shut down your phone and then press power+camera+volume-down for about 10 sec. The phone doesn't need to be connected to a pc.
Regards, Klaus
First of all, did not know that there was one more command to the device,
such as mentioned by the major user MarysFetus, so I decided to turn my HTC Trophy with DFT HSPL v3 to the original custom OSPL to test this method and update to the 8107 version with the zune, and did not want to update it more if I suffered half brick lol. (Also that it did not take this method as I HSPL available, but curiosity killed me haha)
Thanks for giving the user Budniu version 0.0.5.
As it was held the following commands (hold) "power / volume (+) / camera" and we'll be out a phone with a USB and a PC laptop and thus to test the method could make the Gold card method of this post. .. satisfactorily.
By that I mean it's a great post!
Maybe holding down the buttons (volume (less) + Camera button + Power) came into USB Host mode and may also perform the same method and tested it or not, since I never was needed ..... . HSPL qu already available, but it is now certain is that this method with the first mentioned commands could make the gold card, simply out of curiosity: P
Sorry for my bad English and I use the google translator and I would not confuse users for my bad translations

The difference is buying wires, or actually building custom wires yourself.
