Hi Just got a Rogers Dream from a friend in the following tree color state:
DREA210 PVT 32B RUUNBH
BOOT-0.95.0000
CPLD-4
RADIO-1.22.12.29
Sep 2 2008
Serial0
1) I tried safely to install Rogers rom for the htc dream but PC does not detect my USB port failing with error 170.
2) Read Forum for 2 hours, and tried stock firmware, made sure SD card formatted FAT32, DREAIMG.nbh and update.zip it did boot, loading... and error 0002802 not allowed showed.
Can someone point me to the right direction for the next steps?
What kind of more information can I provide? And how to get it? Thx
what are you trying to achieve? That dream is running the 1x radio with a stock T-Mobile spl, thus ought to be used like a T-Mobile g1,
You could run a true rogers nbh via SD card.. but this is probably not going yo give you the phone you wish to use.
Tell me the end state you want to be in we can help you get there.
My goal was to use the damn phone, after 12 hours of struggling I was able to install Haykuro Rogers dream, after that I want to SPL 1.33.2005, Rooted my phone and I installed cm-5.0.7-DS-test5 Rom.
All is fine now thanks for the response.
Ive got exactly the same issue, formatted SD to FAT32 and copied DREAIMG.nbh (RC7) to it. I get the not allowed error and then drop to the multi colored screen with:
DREA110 PVT 32B
HBOOT-0.95.0000
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.22.19.261

I am trying to follow the instructions on the cyanogen wiki to install Cyanogen 5.0.7 on a stock Dream purchased in Australia.
Any pointers will be appreciated, I have tried to reformat, different SD cards without any success.

Because the nbh is for T-Mobile in the states.. thus fails the carrier checks elsewhere in the world.
To get around these checks a goldcard is needed.
But before looking into that.. make sure you can't root by flashreq first. (I can't say I've used the Australian rom so I'm not really sure of your phones state.. the gold card will let you flash that nbh.. but if you can install recovery by flashreq that is safer)
It's usually best to search for people who have rooted the same stock rom as is installed on the phone.
i have a tmobile g1 its giving me the same error code"0002802" when i try to flash the DREAIMG.nbh file from bootloader. so i cant downgrade to rc29. i want to root the phone.any solution?

I answered this best I could here
With both a potential solution:
Did you try a goldcard yet? what was the result?
And a question to help understand why:
Did you answer my question last time of when your phone was jtagged was it with my solution in the wiki or Omnia's solution?
Okay I have the same problems as the op and I have the same radio, spl everything is exactly the same. The phone cannot boot into recovery whenever it starts it goes directly to bootloader. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Not even downgrading
Hello guys,
I tried already one goldcard, made all the procudures to get one and also didnt work, with the gold card says that no IMG not found, with the DREAIMG from USA and EU says that is 'not allow'. I tried as well the DREAIMG.nbh from USA and EU. I bought my phone in Holland, and his configuration is:
DREa110 PVT 32B
HBOOT-0.95.000
CPLD-4
RADIO-1.22.12.29
If you can help me another way out. I'ven been try and I am stucked on this for 3 days.
0002802
strange, in my case I got a phone which I did not know if it was from Europe or the US. I just happened to get the "0002802" error when using what I assume to have been the wrong firmware (European in my case) as when I tried the US version everything worked fine.
Though for the Rogers phone the whole process seem slightly more complicated (check the Cyanogmode wiki for it under Full_Update_Guide_-_Rogers_Dream_EBI1 -- sorry Im new here and I cant post a link =D)

Help please.. some one...
I can try and help ...
I had tried the xda-dev post entitled [How-To] Root and un-root the T-Mobile myTouch 3G, and I was receiving the same errors you described. I tried creating the goldcard following this xda-dev page Qns wrt SG Htc Dream and SDcard, even though I followed the hex editing info exactly, I continued getting the same errors similar to what just you described. I tried it using the exact method, which meant I had to wait to create the goldcard at work, since I don't have a windows machine at home (not trying to imply that this couldn't be done on Windows, just letting you know about what happened with me, when I was trying it too).
After trying most things and getting practically fed up, I decided to find out if I could just create the gold card on Ubuntu (since I didn't want to wait any longer). There was a Tutorial for the that I found my searching google Nazri Awang: How to create a goldcard with Ubuntu Linux, which is what I used finally to successfully create a working goldcard. I would have given you the links, but as newer posting member here, I am unable to link using any outside links in this forum yet.
I can try to and help you as I struggled with this last night and at the end of the evening, I am now running a 2.1 cyanogenmod version. I would like to document what works this time, as I really didn't get a chance to do that when I was trying to figure it out for myself. If you want send me a private message here, and I will IM you as soon as I can to try and help. We can then post the how-to here so that others can benefit from it.
Let me know either way.
Thanks,

Can you either paste the link here, or put the title of the tutorial or wiki you used to create your goldcard. After creating it before doing anything else did you try and insert it back into the phone? Does it do that successfully?
Thanks!

Greetings potential saviors!!! I swear on my immortal soul that I have scoured these forums for an answer, and I can attest to having followed technical instructions to the T, but after countless hours of suffering through endless failures I am humbly asking for the assistance of someone wiser, someone stronger, and someone with the compassion and fortitude to help someone as desperate as myself.
My phone, like the others mentioned in this thread, is a T-Mobile myTouch 3g (Google branded) with the following specs:
Firmware Version:1.6
Baseband Version: 62.50SC.20.17U_2.22.23.02
Kernel Version: 2.6.29-00479-g3c7df37 - [email protected] #19
Build Number: DMD64
saphire pvt 32B ship s-on g
radio 2.22.23.02
cpld-10
hboot 1.33.0007 (SAPP30000)
I'm trying to root my phone and from what I have read it is necessary to create a "goldcard" in order for the phone to flash the sappimg.nbh file. I followed the steps (theunlockr) and was successful according to their test of being able to read the SD card after the process of coping the goldcard image to the micro SD. I've made four separate goldcard's using Kingston 2GB cards, each time I believe successfully.
When moving on to process of going into HBOOT I continually receive the same error message "Update Fail, Main Version Older." This error appears as the update is finalizing during the checksum process.
Does anyone have an idea of what my next step should be? Thanks for your help!

Can try itnet7's idea. Perhaps something is failing with the goldcard. other then that, other random things I guess you can try, is re-downloading the nbh, or try another brand sd card.

Perhaps they might work. Goodluck.
Problem solved! It turns out that I required a later version of the sappimg file. I used 2.53.707.2 sappimg (Google searchable). The only issue is that when the phone booted with that image it did not have andriod market installed (need for the Linda file manager). After a short freak out, I loaded the sappimg from theunlockr redirect. Tada...was able to root and now running Froyo.

The 2.53.707.2 sappimg did not work for me but "SAPPIMG_Sapphire_TMUS_1.88.531.1_COC10_release_signed.nbh" did. Search in google - lots of download links. I used the goldcard method.
So i hope this is the right place to ask. I updated the radio to 6.xx and the spl to 1.33.0013 and now i cant boot my custom rom or access the recovery screen, but i can access fastboot. Ive tryed flashing a new radio, recovery etc from the sdk cmd promt and no luck, keeps saying remote: not allow. IS there anything i can do from the fastboot to get my phone back. Sorry if this is realy noobish. Ive searched for 3 days and i've had no luck. PLEASE HELP ME

You are ok untill now..You have not bricked your phone....you can still recover it using fast boot or recovery...
serach for the correct topic on this fourm...you will surely get info
Ive tryed everything in fastboot and i cant get into recovery. If i could i would have fixed it by now
Tried Goldcard method as well?
I cant do a goldcard again. I cant access the operating system. I cant access the recovery screen. Al i can do is access fastboot. And from there i just get remote: not allow when i try to modify things. I just need a BIG reset button on this phone. Im hitting my head so hard against the wall trying to figure this out. I try to read up but everywhere you go its something different and its all soooooooo confusing. No one makes nay sense
If this is a bad place to ask this, please tell me. My head hurts and im very frustrated because i followed someones write up step by step and i got screwed over. I know it can be fixed!
OK dude, just breathe. By looking at your SPL you've got the myTouch 1.2 (the one with the 3.5mm jack) so you've got o use the goldcard method which is done through hboot and fastboot, if you can get one you can get the other. Let me get to a computer and we'll fix your problem. In the mean time post back and let me know your still here.

You need to fastboot an engineering spl first.
I believe 1.33.2010 should do it.
Flash back to the operator's ROM and start all over again; safest approach if you are having a difficult time understanding how to troublshoot your problem.
I try to load a new sippimg.img ( from my understanding that a new spl) And everytime i load it, it says model id wrong and fails to load.
And in fast boot i cant load anything new cause i get the remote: not allow.
How am i suppose to create a gold card another gold card without having access to the phones main operating system?
I just went to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529019 and followed that and wasnt able to load the recovery image cause because remote: not allow. So im stuck
Try using this.

I cant create a new gold card, i cant access the phone I created one before but it still gives me a the wrong mode ID code. And i cant do adb because i cant turn on USB debugging since i cant access the phone.
I followed the steps in the link. I loaded the sappimg.img and it loaded it but didnt ask to confirm the install, but it did show a loading bar and when it was completed it never said anything about restarting or anything. It just detected it, loaded it and then nothing. So after that i tryed to load the spl, radio and recovery and it still gave me remote: not allow.
It seems my gold card somehow undid its self. I need to figure out how to make one without being able to access the actual phone options. I realy do appreciate you guys helping!!!! If this gets fixed ill kiss all of you. JK!
How long have you had your phone?
3 days But i didnt buy through t-mobile, so no warranty for me
The only other option I can think of is to see if a friend with the same phone can let you borrow his. Luckily the stuff you need to do isn't phone specific, it's only specific to the SD card, so you can remake it with another phone and then use it to finish your's.
I believe the CID that you get (that ridiculously long number you have to copy) is specific to the SD card. I just swapped the goldcard I made for my phone into my wife's and the CID remained the same. Just not sure if using a different model phone will work.
You don't happen to have the CID still do you?

I still have all the emails for when i originally made a gold card and the goldcard.img.
You can try doing the steps in Hex Editor, where you copy the lines from the goldcard image over to your SD card again. Then try flashing the sappimg again and see what you get.
On it! :cross fingers:
I did all the Hex editor stuff. And i still get Wong model ID when i try to install a new sappimg.img. I tried several times and double checked the hex editor.
Hey guys,
I have the original myTouch 3g (no 3.5mm jack).
I decided to unroot and go back to T-Mobile's original Froyo version (i know stupid idea). I attempted to use SAPPIMG.nbh file to go back to factory. Unfortunately, it didn't work so I tried using SAPPIMG.zip. Now I have a Vodaphone splash screen instead of the T-Mobile one. no access to recovery, or anything. I can access fastboot. Where did I go wrong?? (aside from wanting to un-root myself)
Any help would be appreciated!

well if u can access fast boot you can probably flash recovery again
fastboot flash recovery "recovery file.img"
or try to boot recovery
fastboot boot "recovery file.img"
I attempted to do that but I get a signature failed error and booting recovery file just leaves me stuck at the red Vodafone splash image. Nothing else comes on.
try finding the proper sapping.nbh file for your area / carrier.
place it in the root of your memory stick by its self. turn on your phone while holding vol down and let it flash the file. you should end up back on stock 1.5 i think just root again after. i had a similar problem like this like last week and had to start over =/

I have tried multiple different sappimg.nbh files. But the problem is that now it somehow has Vodafone files on it. So i'm not sure how to get it back to T-mobile.
Every time I try the SAPPIMG.nbh it gives me the following error: Main version is older.
If I try to use a SAPPIMG.zip I get the following error: Model ID incorrect. Everything sort of fails when it checks for the signature.
Also, when I try to upload amon ra recovery to recovery partition with fastboot I get remote: signature verify fail.
Wrong section!!!!
@crazy
You're new here... so let me warn you here and now. The Development section is for the members that want to post their work such as roms, scripts, hacks, etc. When I'm in a bad mood and I see posts in the development section that are not development related I normally just delete them. However, I'm in a good mood and decided to move it to GENERAL where it belongs. HOWEVER... next time it will dissappear. Please take a few minutes and carefully read over the forum rules and stickies before posting. We also have a search feature that works quite well (most of the time).
If I see that you posted a new thread about something that is found in a sticky, already been answered and can be found by using the search feature or against forum rules you're post will be deleted and you may even be subject to losing your membership.
Besides all of that... enjoy and welcome!
Thanks for your help @Binary.
I searched all through the forums and tried to flash a recovery through fastboot. NO go.
Next I tried the gold card method and with that I continue to get either Model ID incorrect or Main version is older. So here I am seeking guidance from everyone else who may know what I can try next.
Thanks in advance for all your help guys.
It seems like your Mytouch 3g haven't flashed recovery.img just choose a suitable image to flash. XD

How do I force flash the recovery image? Any time I try flashing any recovery image via fastboot the signature check fails. Is there an official recovery image that would work?
Any help guys? Still not running.
can you boot into system or not?
if yes,root your device and flash recovery.That's what I did yesterday.
if not,use SAPPIMG.nbh again,and then flash rec,radio/spl through fastboot.
i don't know if it helps,just try it.

Woah woah woah dude. You can't just have someone flash a sappimg just because it worked for your device. He needs a specific one. That one may work, but there's the same percentage chance that it could also brick his phone.

Thanks Don Juan for the heads up and looking out, but i'm getting desperate at this point. I have read through almost all the threads on the forum regarding my issue. The only thing I haven't tried is the GoldCard method at this point. Unfortunately and quite bad on my part, I never made one. Now, attempting to make one without Android is almost impossible. I can't read the SD card CID on anything. I've tried a mac, windows XP, windows 7, I even tried Linux but nothing.
Any insights and words of wisdom are greatly appreciated.

Can you give me till tomorrow when I'll be able to sit down at a computer and give some proper guidance? One thing is for sure, if we have to make a goldcard you'll have to see if you can borrow an Android phone from a friend. What you can do in the meantime is get ANDROIDSDK installed, turn the phone on in fastboot mode plugged into the computer and run the folksingers commands from the ANDROIDSDK Tools folder
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main

Thank you for helping me out Don Juan. I cannot thank you enough!
In the meantime I will ask around and see who has an Android I could borrow.
Here is the info you requested:
Code:
version-main: 2.16.151.1
Before I get started, I have already tried whitetigerdk's guide. It didn't work, I keep getting update fail. I have also tried the Unlockr.com's guide. Didn't work.
I have also tried a bunch of different ways, like flashing a rom, or trying to get my nandroid.md5 backup to work, I just keep getting errors. I'm sure I've tried a couple other ways, and maybe a mix of two ways but nothing has worked so far, and I'm out of ideas. I'm 0 for like.. 8. EDIT: I've also tried using the clockwork recovery by flashing update.zip, does everything and seems like its back to stock, but I check phone info and it's still Rodriguez Style.
So here's the deal. My HTC Legend is running off of.. the Rodriguez Style with vivid sense rom, and just recently (couple days ago) a strip, up and down my screen, does not react to touch. Tried restarting, cleaning, whatever, it's ****ed. So then I knew I wanted to bring it in for warranty but i need to get the orginal rom back on, like how it was when I opened up the box.
I'm sure I need some more detail, so let me know and I'll provide all the info I can.
I appreciate the help! Thanks
Tynan
That error I got for the RUU's was this "ERROR [130]: MODEL ID ERROR" when I used the LEGEIMG.zip way, I also got model Id error
I'm not exactly an expert, but when I had to unroot my Legend, I've used RUU_Legend_Froyo_S_HTC_WWE_3.15.405.3_Radio_47.51.35.17_7.13.35.05_release_160328_signed from shipped-roms. Just plugged my Legend, ran the installer and all done.

Before I get started, I have already tried whitetigerdk's guide. It didn't work, I keep getting update fail. I have also tried the Unlockr.com's guide. Didn't work.
I have also tried a bunch of different ways, like flashing a rom, or trying to get my nandroid.md5 backup to work, I just keep getting errors. I'm sure I've tried a couple other ways, and maybe a mix of two ways but nothing has worked so far, and I'm out of ideas. I'm 0 for like.. 8. EDIT: I've also tried using the clockwork recovery by flashing update.zip, does everything and seems like its back to stock, but I check phone info and it's still Rodriguez Style.
So here's the deal. My HTC Legend is running off of.. the Rodriguez Style with vivid sense rom, and just recently (couple days ago) a strip, up and down my screen, does not react to touch. Tried restarting, cleaning, whatever, it's ****ed. So then I knew I wanted to bring it in for warranty but i need to get the orginal rom back on, like how it was when I opened up the box.
I'm sure I need some more detail, so let me know and I'll provide all the info I can.
I appreciate the help! Thanks

That error I got for the RUU's was this "ERROR [130]: MODEL ID ERROR" when I used the LEGEIMG.zip way, I also got model Id error

OMG!!!!! I have the exact same problem on my legend. The vertical line region of the "C" key does not respond any more
Im sending my legend for repair tomorow
I had to un-root and return to stock too. Heres how i did it:
Download HTC sync and install
Go here and download your RUU shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Legend
Then, connect phone with usb debugging enabled and run the RUU
DONE!!!!!
Hey thanks guys but I've actually tried three different RUU's .
I've tried your froyo one, a 1.23 whatever, then one that was the exact same build number 1.31.xxx.4 or whatever, and non worked. I followed the instructions exactly but I get that error that I posted above!
I have no idea what to do, I've tried so many different ways..
And oh yeah, the vertical strip doesn't let me hit e, d, or x.. and I use e in every text at least 173509712365092 times aha...
Hm...have you tried with a goldcard? If not, make yourself one, then copy LEGEIMG.zip on it and run the bootloader.
You can also try the RUU with the goldcard inserted if LEGEIMG fails.
Both failed, I have had the goldcard in, tried LEGEIMG on bootload or w/e, and it loads the progress bar all the way then says Model Image incorrect or something.. and same with the RUU.. I've tried soo many ways .
EDIT: I've tried using other sd cards (not goldcarded) with LEGEIMG with no luck. Should I try making a new goldcard?
EDIT 2: Nevermind.. a) My other sd's dont work and even if I found one, the goldcard code/hex generator (or whatever) is down.
I don't know where I got it, it was probably some rooting/debranding guide here on XDA, but there's a GoldCardTool.exe goldcard maker that you just fill in the info and it makes the goldcard for you.
Thinking more deeply, that tool was for download somewhere on some HTC Hero dev site, and applies to all Android phones.

Thanks man, i found it and converted two cards to gold cards, then tried putting LEGEIMG on the card and doing the volumedown + pwr, but no luck, worse than my original gold card.. tried the RUU's again, and same error, 130 model error.
Think all the ways are spent.. my phones just apparently the devil phone..

Did the two sdcard you converted into a GC were from different manufacturers?
I had problems with RUU installation (had sandisk microsd as GC), but when I made a kingstone microsd GC - it worked (and no, it's not an indirect advertising )

Yup, one is SanDisk 2GB, then ones a no name sd, and the other is something different. None are kingston tho.. but like I said I swear my phone is the devil phone...
I'm thinking about trying to get the warranty if its rooted anyway (I have warranty with Virgin and Wireless Wave) so idk.. and if not.. I'm just gunna buy the Incredible on a 3 year contract aha..
Please tell me,if you made a goldcard,flashed,and then formated it again to use normally with the phone,does it still remain a goldcard?

Pretty sure once a goldcard, always a goldcard. But yeah I guess what I'm left with now is that I should try to bring it in for warranty, just don't tell em it's rooted and see what happens? Idk.
I should reformulate my question, i had a rooted phone with costume rom,but then went back to stock and updated to android 2.2 build 3.15,(the device is not branded)basically what you are saying,i can skip the goldcards process and proceed with rooting my phone?(mind you the previous owner of the phone had done the rooting and i have absolutley no xp in that stuff)
Thanks in advance!

Ohhhhhhhhh, ok. The reason you were able to have a root done without a goldcard is because your phone is debranded, I've read that if your phone is debranded you do not need a goldcard!
Did you even search? I have made a thread in development on easiest way to unroot the Legend..

Yeah.. I did search. Did you even read my post? I ask for help on forums as a last resort aha.
EDIT: It was either update fail, or model ID fail
I have the same problem with a Legend I got with Bell. I tried all the RUU in version 1.31 on the Shipped Rom website and always got the error 130. Just for fun I tried the one from bell mobility (version 2.02) and that one worked perfectly.
