I have not found about this.So, i thought i should make a post here about how to find your Device ID without searching in Registry.
There are a few steps only & they are idiot proof.The regular method posted in the official & some other threads can give you more than one DeviceID for your Phone if you have plugged the Phone in different USB Ports.
Even searching in Registry can give you more than one DeviceID if you used multiple USB Ports.So, in that case you will need to know which is the correct deviceID for your model & this does not involve searching in Registry.
1) Install SEUS ( Sony Ericsson Update Service ) from the official website.
2) Install the Update Software while your phone is connected to your machine.After installing the Software , Disconnect your Phone from your Computer & start the Update application & follow the prompts.
3) Put your phone in Flash Mode.
4) A Green light will turn on while your phone is off if you have done it properly which is shown on the above picture.
5) Now press your Keyboard's Windows & Pause Break buttons at the same time.And go to Device Manager.
6) Expand the " Universal Serial Bus Controllers " & Click on " SEMC Flash Device " .
7) Now from the SEMC Flash device window, scroll through the value of " Device Instance ID " .
8) There you will get your DeviceID.Just highlight & Ctrl+C & Paste it in a Notepad.As you know the last parts are your DeviceID.
In this way you will not search into registry & you will get the correct DeviceID every time you connect your Phone to your machine in the Flash Mode.
Thank You.

The following steps should unbrick your Dell Venue pro in most cases (this will not unbrick your phone if you updated the touch screen firmware via the EM app). You can do this at your own risk. I strongly suggest calling or e-mailing Dell Mobility Support before doing this. If your phone is out of warranty, you replaced the SD card, or did something else really silly to it then this might be your only option. You will lose all data on your phone with this method. Your contacts should be backed up on Live/Hotmail/Facebook/Twitter/Etc. and your images on SkyDrive. Everything else will be wiped. You phone will be wiped back to Version 7704 (or what we had when the phone launched back in October of 2010).
The following instructions are for Windows-based machines. There might be a similar utility for Mac’s but I have no way to find out. You are on your own if you have a Mac.
Unplug your DVP, Remove the battery.
If you replaced your SD card (and voided the warranty in the process) please insert your stock SD card at this time. If you never touched your SD card then you can obviously skip this step.
If your phone already has the stock SD card in it, please wait 10 seconds, and put the battery back in. You may put the cover back on as well if you like.
Now we are going to enter the boot loader (this is how your bricked phone can receive the FFU file) by holding the volume down (-), camera, and then power buttons. DO NOT RELEASE THESE until you see the image of a phone, USB cable, and laptop.
Connect your Dell Venue Pro to your computer with the USB cable that came with the phone or one that has the same or higher specs. I have seen it take up to 10 minutes for the phone to be recognized by your computer. If after 10 minutes your phone hasn’t connected, try another USB port and/or cable.
While your computer is installing the drivers/connecting to your phone download the following file and extract it.
http://www.multiupload.com/5YT27EHLZV
VenuePro_flash_GLEOS2A_US_TMO_SIGNED_SWV0105_LP0030_RV001_RETAIL.zip (138.7 MB)
While this is downloading, close Zune if it is not already closed as it takes a few seconds for it to really unload from memory.
Once you think your phone has been connected, open up command prompt (you may need to start it in admin mode depending on your security settings) by typing “cmd” in the start menu or going start -> run and entering “cmd”.
Change directory to “C:\program files\zune\” by typing “cd C:\program files\zune\” and hitting enter
Then type “UpdateWp /list” and your phone should show up there. If it hasn’t be patient and read step 3 again.
If your phone is listed (it should be) and your download is done and extracted, copy the VenuePro_flash_GLEOS2A_US_TMO_SIGNED_SWV0105_LP0030_RV001_RETAIL.ffu file over to the” C:\program files\zune\” directory. You may wish to rename this file before copying it over to something shorter if you wish for the next part.
Now back in the command prompt window type “updatewp /ffu VenuePro_flash_GLEOS2A_US_TMO_SIGNED_SWV0105_LP0030_RV001_RETAIL.ffu”. If you did not rename the FFU file you can type Venue and then hit tab to auto complete the name otherwise enter the name of the FFU file you renamed.
Hit enter and DO NOT unplug the phone. This process can take anywhere between 60 seconds and 10 minutes.
This should work and bring you back to the stock state. If it does not you can retry this a few more times but if after 2 or 3 times it does not work then you need to contact Dell as your phone is royally screwed.
You can now re-open Zune, pair your device, and update all the way back to Mango (this could take up to an hour).
Now I wonder if there is a way to edit that ffu file ...

That would be nice
I have a question:
My phone told me:
So I tried many of my backup (first boot,Nodo and mango beta backup) to restore it and the ffu backup file but my phone boot in 20mins and no access to EM or any other application but I have an home screen...
Can you tell me if I try to replace my sd card and flash with the ffu i can retreive a working phone?
(Dell doesn't respond to my mails)
There are other threads already dedicated to replacing the sd card.
'Then type “UpdateWp /list” and your phone should show up there. If it hasn’t be patient and read step 3 again'
I tried entering that but it said 'updatewp /list' is not a recognized as an internal or external, operable program or batch file.' Is there something I'm doing wrong? I've tried it on two different laptops.
Please reply as soon as possible

This arises from a previous installation of Windows Phone Support Tool. You have to uninstall it and then install/reinstall the file found in this link http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PL7H6FKJ) and then I copied the files in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1262471 to the Zune Directory.
Hopefully that solves your problem.

Hello!
DVP restored, upgraded to the latest version. But phone does not see MicroSD HC 32Gb Class 10. Before that, everything worked fine. Now available in 32 Gb only 400 Mb: (
Put on the stock card 8Gb Class 4 - worked. But ...
Several times already rolling away in 7004, updated again - anyway, just out of 32Gb 400Mb ...
EM Test says SD Card - not installing, but the DVP should not run without the card!
Please, help me again...
DVP really work without a memory card But I do not need. So it does not work 32Gb ...
Seems Megaupload site has been taken down by the US Gov
Any other links for the Venu Flash File
Sorry guys, I can't seem to find another version of the first link I listed. I deleted mine unless someone can reupload it. The only suggestion I have is to try and check this link (http://www.multiupload.com/EQK2RPH3P6) file for the 'updatewp.exe', which should install 'Windows Phone Engineer Flashing Tool'. Why oh why did they shut down Megaupload, when it also had its legitimate reasons as well. But I can't blame them or agree with what those Pro-SOPA and PIPA are trying to do. There are always two sides to every story I suppose.
what was the name of the file you said that has to be uninstalled / reinstalled

Thank you again
is anybody using it through USB? i installed it and run once and everything went OK. the next day the phone can't connect to it. tried reinstalling LG drivers / On-Screen Phone software, no effect. looking at the running apps LGOnSreenPhone or PC Suite UI are not running in the background nor do they start upon connecting the cable/selection LG Software in Connection Settings either. i remember greenifying LGOnSreenPhone and PC Suite once but removed them from Greenify since then, not sure if that could cause any issues. any advice would be appreciated.

Hello
At the first sorry for my english ! : )
I have the problem like in a topic with lg f70 d315. When phone was working i rooted him and then i download ROM Manager to make "current rom image recovery". The application show me the title window with the backup name, i approve this and then phone shut down - black screen and it's all. : (
Can't power up the phone nothing happend, can't go into the "download mode", adb interface also is dead, nothing happens.
When i plugin the phone to PC, PC detects as a storage memory with size smth like 7 0 mb.
I Think that the program "Rom Manager" change my partirion or overwrtie this in some way.
Made some screenshot with content of this "storage memory", and partitions (this from disk 1, F).
How i can repair my phone?? please ! and one more time sorry for english and be patient with me ! : )
thanks!
Today connect phone to PC ( with ubuntu) it's show's all partitions and files, screenshot attached. : |
