How to flash from an SD card - XV6700, PPC-6700 General

Can someone help me with how to flash my ppc6700 (Apache) form an SD card?

if you are wanting to back up the rom you have on it now and reflash to that you can find that out here...

keep in mind this is ONLY the rom and not all your files and contacts etc. back those up before you try to reflash period even with the sd card
as for using a sd card to upgrade your rom i've got no idea.

I need to do this as well. I need to flash back and my USB port on my phone is dead.
EDIT:
nm. I just soldered in a USB cord temporarily. That allowed me to roll back to the legit rom & get my phone replaced. Thanks sprint!

Restore original rom via SD card?

The usb connection from my touch has died but in order to get it fixed under warranty, I would probably have to remove the custom 6.5 rom I have on the device.
Is there a way to restore the original rom via SD
or any other solution that doesn't involve ripping it apart?

problem with buzz

hi guyz after installing some programm dont remember exactly which my wildfire doesnt boot anymore it stops on htc screen.can i get a rom on sd card to use w/o open my phone?
Was it rooted? If Yes, then simply flash a new ROM from within Clockworkmod after entering Recovery Menu. If it was not rooted, flash a RUU by downloading one from Shipped ROM's and running the file after having HTC Sync installed.
But really, getting a bootloop by just installing an app seems unlikely to me. Anyhow, Good Luck.
thnx for fast reply its rooted but my prob is how to get the rom to sd card ?i mean i cant enter my menu so that i can transfer rom from pc to phone.(sorry for poor english)
Borrow or get a cheap card reader? They sell as cheap as peanuts these days. Or, if you have a laptop, most of them have integrated card readers.
You can mount SD from recovery
mount?how to?

If you flashed by SD card it will be good, if you flashed by USB Hspl may still be there. Check in bootloader and rectify with hspl4 or SD card flash stock.

[Q] Restore to factory wimo

Hey I need Help I been trying to look for a way to restore the HD2 back to wimo the way it came when I got it. The phone freezes nonstop and I wanna see if its hardware or software related.
U'll need a official ROM that you can flash..

[Q] Micro usb port broken - can I still install HSPL/Android?

Hello everyone. Long story short - my micro-usb port broke , flashed stock rom from root of sd card so I could use my warranty . Service shop said it was my fault and the only fix is to change the main board which costs lots of $$$ .
So now am I stuck with Windows Mobile 6.5 1.66 ROM(Why didn't I install atleast 3.14) or is there a way to install HSPL and later on CLK(I think you can flash CLK as .nbh from sd card).
Regards.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I bought an external charger and I will transfer my data with card reader ( I wonder why I didnt do that in the first place)
I would go back and try to talk to someone else at that shop or better yet find another shop. I never heard of a broken usb port being blamed
on the person. I think they wanted to make money off of you personally. I have taken back maybe 5-7 phones in my life because of the usb
port going up and not once have i ever heard it was my fault and they wouldn't cover it.
i had an xdaIIi refused warranty on the usb port cos it was full of gunk. Bit of a grey area, warranty and the usb port, there have been a few posts over the years where people have it refused for one reason or another.
That being said, i do agree that OP should be back at the shop kicking up a fuss.
@OP - you can still flash a 3.14 from sd card. So long as you use the correct rom for that phones original region and carrier, it will flash.
to bad wireless doesn't work w/o an OS, there's an ADB wireless driver but that no use in this case.

Ok this is what is possible and what is not possible with a broken USB port. You can not flash HSPL without a USB connection to your computer. You can flash MAGLDR and CLK via your SD card by renaming the .nbh file the same as what you named the stock ROM .nbh file and placing the .nbh file on the root of your SD card and booting into the bootloader. You can not flash Clockwork Mod Recovery via USB for MAGLDR or use fastboot commands to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery after flashing clk. You can get Clockwork Mod Recovery via SD card for MAGLDR by placing the two needed files on the SD card, click the link to the guide in my sig to learn more about this. If you are already using NAND Android on your HD2 and have Clockwork Mod Recovery on your HD2 when your USB port stops working you can still flash Android ROMs via your SD card but you have to use ROMs that will work with your current partition layout that the version of Clockwork Mod Recovery you have uses. To change your partition size you will have to flash another version of Clockwork Mod Recovery that uses the partition size you want. Keep in mind when I say Clockwork Mod Recovery I also mean any other custom recovery you may use or are using presently. You can not flash any WP7 ROMs without a working USB port. I think that pretty much covers it.
That was very informative. I should start taking notes from you. lol.
As samsamuel suggested try and raise hell, it may get you somewhere. Or mayber just go back when that person who you spoke with before
isn't there. I've had great success just talking to someone else sometimes from everything from problems with T-Mobile to my credit cards. Off
subject but i had one person tell me they couldn't help me with my credit card problem and was adamant there was nothing that could be done,
I hung up and spoke to someone else and they took off $400 so its definitely worth trying.
Thank you everyone. If I'm not able to flash HSPL I'm pretty much denied access to the sd card flashing methods of MAGLDR/CLK. This is a bummer. Going back to the shop and making a fuss is not a really an option , because I'm not that kind of a person and to be frankly honest it is probably my fault. The symptoms of a loose micro usb port were there for nearly 3-4 months . I had to jiggle the cable so I can get connection and even the slightest vibration/sudden move could brake it and it would seem one of the days the jiggle from my side was too hard and tore off the port fully. I can't imagine that not leaving traces of an external intervention. Now that I think of it I should of have taken it when the port was still somewhat usable because the loose connection came from overuse or fabric defect , not from my mishanding of the device.
I will flash 3.14 and continue to use Windows Mobile for couple of months until Galaxy SIII or some other phone that can come in terms with HTC HD2's awesomeness comes out.
A thing that bothers me is that almost every phone uses micro usb ports for charging/transfering data and it is bound to brake sooner or later. This standart seems very fragile and I wonder if that is the reason Apple uses their own proprietary USB cable/charger/dock port.
Regards.
I have seen just the USB port online you can buy. Maybe you could ask them how much they might charge for labor if you get the part. It may save you a little bit of money. If not you could always buy a spare battery that comes with a wall charger, the kind the whole battery plugs into. That way you can charge your battery up since you can't charge your phone. They sell them on eBay for around $5-$10.
