Can you get what you need remotly to get this working on a Sprint Arrive and Verizon Trophy? I have access to both (guaranteed on the Arrive, Trophy is mine, but a friend uses it).

If you can, feel free to PM me and I'll assist in figuring it out.

Thanks for the info. And one more thing....so its better to install HSPL rather than RSPL on my HD7?

Depends, if you see yourself flashing ROM's on a regular basis. I'd suggest HSPL as it's permanent, but it's also more risky as your flashing the HSPL to the ROM chip, replacing your stock SPL. RSPL is just loaded into RAM & is temporary. So, not as much risk, but you'd have to RSPL everytime you flash another ROM.

    DFT HSPL RSPL WP7F3

    DarkForcesTeam proudly presents RSPL / HSPL
    for phones HTC WP7 First Generation



    (Short name is “WP7F”)
    This is first big step to customization and community development for these devices.


    History:


    15.02.2012 Updated release. Revision #3.
    Changes:
    • Was added support for 'SCHU1000' and 'PD291200' MIDs
    • Removed OTA update inside RSPL and HSPL, this allows to keep HSPL after HTC OTA Zune update.
    • Added warning screen about 4.XX and 5.XX
    • But still NO support for 4.XX and 5.XX
    • Support for CDMA devices: GoldC and SparkW
    • Wizard UI: only WWE support remains.

    NOTE for ROM chefs:
    SparkW custom ROMs must has "SPAW1000" MID instead of "PC402000".
    This is done to protect from flashing Spark custom ROM to Spark_W and reversed.



    18.08.2011 Updated release. Revision #2.
    Changes:
    • Improved wizard GUI on non DPI 96 systems.
    • Added support for "PD291300", "PD291500" two new Schubert MIDs.
    • Replaced RSPL and HSPL for Spark from 1.10 to 1.20.
    01.08.2011 Initial release. Revision #1.




    WARNING TO ALL:
    Do NOT use RSPL / HSPL with Mozart 4.XX and other RUU ROMS with MANGO.
    All WP7F devices affected: MOZART, GOLD, SCHUBERT, MONDRIAN, SPARK!
    It will damage your device. Not a joke.
    MORE INFORMATION HERE



    Read the next few messages for more information.


    This release supports those WP7F devices:

    *Gold (HTC Pro 7,T7575)
    *Mozart (HD3,T8697,T8698,T8699)
    *Mondrian (Surround,T8788)
    *Spark (Trophy,T8686)
    *Schubert (HD7, HD7S, T9292,T9295,T9296)
    *HTC Gold C (HTC Arrive)
    *HTC Spark W (Trophy Verizion)


    Most of these devices have several MIDs (ModelID, looks like “PC921000”).
    Current release supports only some limited number of MIDs. This was designed to minimize possible harm to user’s devices.

    List of supported MIDs:

    Gold: “PC92****”, “PC921000”
    Mozart: “MOZA1000”, “PD67****”, “PD671000”, “PD671200”
    Mondrian: “PD26****”, “PD261000”, “PD261100”
    Spark: “PC401000”
    Schubert: “PD29****”, “PD291000”, “PD291100”, "PD291200", "PD291300", "PD291500"


    !Please note that on SPL screen MID is only 7 symbols, without last one.!

    Programs stops any operations if unknown MID detected. If your device have unknown MID, please report about it in this thread. Specify your MID, device name, ROM versions. It’s nice, if you can give a link to download ROM.


    Basic stuffs to know:

    SPL is Secondary Program Loader. It allows to flash ROMs to device.
    Without working SPL device is fully bricked, you can’t restore it. It’s why all operations with SPL are dangerous.
    OSPL is Original SPL. This SPL comes with stock ROM and doesn’t allow to flash custom stuffs.
    RSPL is Reloaded SPL. It load only to RAM, so it doesn’t persistent. It’s enough to soft reset device to get OSPL back.
    HSPL is Hard SPL. It’s permanently flashed to internal device memory and replaces OSPL. After soft reset you still have HSPL instead of OSPL.

    This release consists from RSPL and HSPL wizards.
    For regular users, who flash ROMs rather rare, it can be enough to use only RSPL.
    For advanced users and ROM makers, it can be useful to install HSPL.


    IMPORTANT NOTES
    1. Before doing any operations be sure you have battery level more than 50%!
    Sometimes in SPL mode WP7F devices DO NOT charge. You may got a cold brick if it power down during SPL or RADIO update!
    2. Stock RUU ROMs have two NBH inside, SPL_Signed and RUU_Signed.
    So it's not possible directly flash stock ROM, you need extract files and remove SPL_Signed.nbh at least.
    3. Rememeber if you have HSPL and you flashing stock RUU_Signed.nbh you lost HSPL!
    4. Supported OS: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7.


    Warranty Issues

    Be warned, using RSPL may void your warranty.
    If you need to send your device to a Repair Centre, make sure that it looks like stock! Install stock official ROM before go to Repair Centre.

    @cotulla Should we be expecting a magldr release soon? ;-) I heart dual booting!
    for LEO - yes. about WP7F, we have some experiments and runnning some MAGLDR version on Gold and Mozart, but not sure how deep it will go.
    because this devices are not so lucky as LEO, some things make stuffs difficult, like external audio codec and other ril interface. Last thing can stop porting for a long time. time will show truth ;) but I can't promise anything. LEO is still The King. haha.

    Issues with MANGO RUU ROMS.


    List of such ROMs:

    It's not full list. Maybe some other ROMs affected by this too.
    Thread about this ROMs.

    RUU_Gold_S_HTC_Europe_3.02.401.01_Radio_5.69.09.29 a_22.50.50.21_Signed_GOLD_RELEASE.exe
    RUU_Mozart_S_HTC_Europe_4.06.401.00_5.69.09_RELEAS E.exe
    RUU_Mozart_S_HTC_RUS_4.06.411.00_5.69.09_RELEASE.e xe
    RUU_Schubert_S_HTC_Europe_4.05.401.02_Radio_5.69.0 9.29a_22.50.50.21_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE.exe
    RUU_Spark_S_HTC_Europe_4.06.401.00_5.69.09_RELEASE .exe


    About issue:

    After running RSPL on MANGO OSPL, you can't flash device via SPL.
    Windows Phone 7 OS is still booting and working.
    Instead of full SPL screen you will see only one the first line:
    You device will be "HALF BRICKED", because you can use OS, but can't flash anything else.

    attachment.php


    At the current moment it's IMPOSSIBLE to recover such devices. And I am not sure it will be ever possible.


    What you must NOT do:

    Before running RSPL wizard check your SPL screen.
    There current SPL version at top: "X.Y.Z 2250 "
    When wizard asks you to choose your current SPL version, be sure it's present inside versions list.
    If your current SPL version doesn't present in the list, you can choose nearest version, BUT ONLY IF IT HAS SAME FIRST NUMBER!!
    Example: You have 4.XX on the device. Do NOT choose 1.XX 2.XX 3.XX.

    Generally it means that you must NOT run RSPL wizard after MANGO RUU ROM installation. You must flash older version (with 7004 or NoDo) and then run RSPL.
    Installed OS version doesn't important. Only SPL version important.
