Has anybody tried 'gold card' method to change language on HTC HD2 Leo ??

Hello everybody, I understand there is no hardspl but just wandering
if anybody has successfully applied 'gold card' method [using QMAT software]
to change language on their HTC HD2. Infact as far as I know hardspl is needed only for cooked ROMs but if you want just to put an official ROM but in a different language I've been told you just need to follow the 'gold card' method and you don't need a hardspl [you loose your warranty though!]
Is this true and has anybody already successfully applied this method to HTC HD2???
Thanks
p.s. I have a dutch HD2 but I need an english one!. If anybody wants to exchange (I'm in Bruxelles) their official english with my dutch one please send me a private message so we can keep our warranty alive

Gold card as in "Gold Mastercard" (gold CC)?
If so... Yes that will work

I also have Dutch ROM and I am pretty desperate about it...Found this http://forum.revskills.de/viewforum.php?f=10&sid=e3bdebeaec49eaf91b5e685dbbd26c35
It seams that .nbh signature can be extracted. Will ,please, someone with more experience in this tell us can we change our ROM-s (official or unofficial) using this, and if yes - how?

I will also look into this when i'm at home.. Sounds interesting. I have a dutch HD2 and would like it in german.. Flashing the GER official ROM would be nice..
Mhm.. We need a full version of QMAT, it seems...

QMAT is 20 Euros, I am willing to pay it if it will do the job...

Already bought it.. It has some nice features.. And the full version, which includes support for LEO is to be released at the weekend i heard..
Will dig more into that, when it is released..

"Hi,
support (for Leo) will be included in next QMAT Release 5.07.
WBR,
B. Kerler"
This was the answer from QMAT forum

Sorry to say, but due to a cracker hacking and publishing our latest beta,
QMAT 5.07 won't be ever released. QMAT development has stopped.

Right... so some smart ass cracked your beta.
Why stop dev work because of this? It's not that every potential customer of yours would have access to the hacked beta? I would want a stable version...
If all software authors would just quit as soon as a hack or crack appears then we would be out of programs to buy pretty soon...
Does MS stop developing new Windows versions even if they know their software will be used without all people paying for it? I think you get my point now...
Please continue working on a really useful program mate!
Cheers,

Yahoooo... I now have an English version
Thank you cmonex

Trust me ... normally I don't care about my program being cracked. But cracking even unreleased beta just for some yet "unknown" stuff .... this is crazy. They even don't care if this beta has some REAL bugs that will kill some phones. And those nerds using the cracked Software are spaming my email account saying I would have killed their phone or they want support even though they never donated ... this just sucks.
However, we are now going one step further and are now working with security professionals .. money I would have preferred to use for QMAT development ... and there is a lot we want to integrate. Another change will be the name : QMAT is going to be PSAS.

Regarding Leo goldcard, there is no need to fill cmonex's email account or PM folder, you can now get it for free (as xmas gift) :
See http://revskills.de or LEO Forum over here for more details.

[Q] Chevron Error?

Hey guys im getting a chevron error that is saying the phone isnt connected. SDK installed, connected to zune, network connections turned off... idk what to do. Been searching everywhere and cant find anything. using xp SP3.

Same problem here. Tried all different kinds of variations with connections.
Using Windows 7 Ultimate.

Firstly, this is the dev forum (for posting dev work), there is a reason why these forums have Q&A sub-forums and I thought the reason would be obvious
Second, why are you even using chevron? All the latest roms are pre-unlocked so you have no need to use chevron unless you are still using the first build that was released.
Just re-flash to custom rom.

hmm... that's confusing. Well, I am using LEO7 or w/e... from a guide on here. Is that not right?
Secondly... I posted this in the Q&A forum, so what is the problem?
Thirdly, When trying to activate my HD2, should I just skip the step with chevron and continue to the registry editing? How can I see if my WP7 is unlocked?

Here is an example of one of the ROMS that is developer unlocked, which means you do not have to worry about Chevron and registry hacks. In theory, just input your activation code, and you should be ready to go.
Apparently the other poster lost track of which sub-forum he was in, so do not worry about that.

I still dont have to change the registry to make my phone identity a HD7? This rom I am using is developer unlocked now - can I contact Microsoft and get the key all the while telling them I have an HD7? How do I verify my phone's identity being an HD7?

Best thing for you to do is recheck the details about the ROM you installed. Most of the newer versions have the registry taken care of, so there is no need for you to change it to create the appearance of a version of Windows Phone 7. The information about your ROM should give you all the details, including the WP7 model number.

I looked at the ROM details and it said that it is Chevron hacked, and the registry edited. Doesn't specifically say the identity changed to an HD7. Chatting with microsoft, just got my key and I am giving it a try now. Will post results. Thanks guys.

Noob WP7 Questions (new phone!)

Heya,
Just swapped my Desire for an Omnia 7. So far so good.
But, I do want to remove the iOS-like restrictions on the WP7, like installing custom ringtones and pushing 3-rd party apps.
Zune automatically updated my phone to 7392 (NoDo, as I can tell fro the reading I've done), but it did back up before the update.
Now, how do I "jailbreak"? just use the Chevron tool?
if not, how do I roll back to previuos backups? I didn't find any backup options in the Zune PC software.
Thanks,
Alex.

All this info is already in this forum and in the Windows Phone forum.
Good luck hacking!

NoDO - Chevron..

Help with an old PDA

Hi everybody!
First of all i want to apologize for my bad grammar, englis is not my native..
I have a friend who's got an old pc pocket 2003SE. He asked me if i can install other language in it.
i have actually mannaged to do this but the problem is, when the battary runs out of power, the device erases every installed app on it, including the lang app.
So i thought about the option of installing a brand new OS with the lang i want build in it. Is this even possible?
Ill be grateful for any piece of info about it

I'm afraid I can't give you the final answer, but I can point out some places where you need to give more information to make it possible anyone to help you.
I think your English is clear enough, but for anyone to give you useful help, they would need to know the make and model of the device you are working on? Installations of PocketPC are adapted by the manufacturers for each of their models. Also, what method are you using to install the new language. I can't imagine why all your apps disappear, the make and model might give a clue. And, with that information, you should be able to ask your question in the appropriate sub-forum.

Prior to WM5, (WM2003SE and older) programs not installed on a memory card and user data were actually installed into the RAM. There was a backup battery to power the RAM when the main battery failed so that user programs, etc were not lost. But as these devices get older the backup battery may not hold a charge so when the main battery runs out of juice the RAM is wiped.
What is the model? It may be able to be upgraded. My old Dell Axim x50 came with 2003SE but it had an official upgrade to WM5 and unofficial WM 6.1 and 6.5 ROMs.

Only true, if user accepted this default behaviour. It's always possible to change this.

There was also a ROM partition and the memory card, but I don't think you'd have that option with user system data like extra languages that the OP mentioned. It's been a while since I used 2003SE so I could be wrong.

I forgot to mention that there is no manufacturer sign in any part of the device.. probably generic. The model writen under the battary is PH20A2.
Idk what it belongs, maybe you have a good guess
TY for all the help, i appreciate it

welcome to XDA.
with old PDA, you can user defaur rom for use

The model writen under the battary is PH20A2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=244534

Ok i have mannaged to locate the exect model of the device, its HTC Harrier \ blue eagle (not sure which one..). Wiki said that theirs an unofficial rom upegrade to 6.5, is it true? i got no clue how i do it, and if i can pick the lang i want.
EDIT :
Didnt noticed u have found the model ahead of me.. Thanks for the help but thers one problem, i dont anderstand why i need to unlocke it or from what. the guy in the link above wants to change an ESN. If someone can explain it to me like im a retarded, ill appreciate it.

If the device has a small battery, separate from the main battery, then replacing that small (backup) battery with a fresh full battery could solve your problem?

[Q] Buying advice for Omnia 7

I'm looking to buy Omnia 7, and as i haven't caught up with all the stuff needed for an interop unlock, what should i look for before buying, ie: OS version or bootloader version so that i can interop unlock it?
Is it possible that the phone cannot be unlocked if someone updated regularly through Zune to latest OS version?
Thanks guys!

You don't need to do any flashing to dev unlock your device. I have one running 8107 with tethering and all you need to do is go to http://windowsphonehacker.com/windowbreak on your phone's browser and click "windowbreak me" and follow the steps. When you're done (takes about 5 minutes tops) you'll have dev unlock and tethering, if the device you buy doesn't already have it.

Please dont lie to him. Many people (and also Me) are having the same problem - Non retail device when using Wp7 Downloader or USB error (206) when using DFT and nobody knows how to help us. Type non retail device in google, You gonna find many topics, many problems and tears ;-)
I dont know how to check it before buying, You can ask about version of WP and Zune updating, mine shows that i have the newest version. (ha! ha!)

So i should just check if the phone is updated to 8107 before buying?
