Default [Q] Unbranding HTC Trophy NZ

Hey Guys, I've got a HTC Trophy Vodafone NZ and I'm looking at flashing a custom ROM to it but I am a little confused with a few things.

1. Regarding the Goldcard method from this I am confused at this step "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)"

Which ROM can i use for this step? I can't seem to find a NZ ROM in this thread.

2. Will my phone be reset after doing the Goldcard method and downgrading my spl?

3. So the Goldcard method will unbrand my phone and allow me to flash custom roms?


Here is the info on my phone:

OS Version: 7.10.8107.79
Firmware revision number:2250.21.51201.179
Hardware revision number: 0003
Radio software version: 5.69.09.05a_22.50.50.21U
Radio Hardware version: A.102.0.D4
Bootloader version: 5.12.2250.1(135657)
Chip SOC Version: 2.2.5.0

Sorry for all the noob questions guys!

Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi all I do is follow this link to put HSPL on the phone and I just select any ROM I want from here.

Currently using Dynamics.

Before putting HSPL, I have to downgrade the bootloader right? since mine is version 5.12.2250.1.

Would I have to get a NZ nodo rom or any from this thread for the goldcard method? which one would you recommend?

Ended up using RUU_Spark_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.00_Spark_5.54.09_REL EASE.exe.

followed the goldcard method, did the RSPL/HSPL as instructed and flashed the Dynamics ROM. Working great!

Thanks for all your help!
