Jayce,
When I had Zune on with my internet connection on and connected my 7004 version, it autoupdated to from Zune to 7392 (it gave me 3 seconds to cancel). When I tried WP7 Cab Updater, I received “System cannot find the path specified” and “Error: No update files”. Can I unlock my SD card and start over with a 7004 flash?
Just reflash 7004. No need to unlock SD card.
Hi to insatall Windows Phone 7 7004 build XBmod-Yuki ROM on HTC HD2 what size (Gb) storage card is required. After insatllation can i use new storage card.
I tested on 4GB SD card and it is working. You need to unlock it if you want to use it at PC or Android.
Hi after installing wp7 7004 can i use a new sd card or will i have to use the same sd card during the installation, as unlocking sd card i am unable.
Yes, you can use new SD card. But you need to put the new SD card in then hard reset WP7.
Hi how’s the hard reset done & after hard reset will sd card be usable or I will have to unlock sd card.
Thanks
Please refer to 7720 guide on how to hard reset. You still need to unlock SD card manually.
do you see any way to install windows phone 7 on a samsung nexus s 4G(I would be content even if without a dual-boot solution)?
No for the moment.
Hey will the marketplace and Zune work?
Marketplace should work after you get the activation code. No issue to sync with Zune.
hi Jayce,
Tried calling Microsoft but didnt get any result. Can you give me an Activation Code?
BTW thanks a lot for the Rom Installation process’s.
Thanks
Talha
Hi Talha, each phone as it own activation code. Unique…
HI Jayce,
Thanks for your reply. I was unable to call MS and collect the activation code, now rolling back to Android.
Thanks
Talha
Hello, thankyou for your guide, I’m having a problem loading up the boot screen as the first step, I keep on hold of the power button and it the phone just loads as it does when I turn it on!
Did you install MAGLDR?
How do I get activation code.
Call Microsoft…
I got the code but it still does not work. How do I get it to purchase apps
Sorry, I have no idea because I don’t even have the code. 😛
Great work Jayce,
My only concern is the camera quality which is extremly degraded after using this ROM. in Stock ROM it was super fine quality but now its just OK quality not even fine. can you tell me why is that and if i upgrade to 7.5 mango will it be better ?
WP7 is not developed for HTC HD2 officially. So not all the components are optimized for it. I did not test camera quality on both 7004 and 7720. So I don’t have any idea. Sorry…
hi jayce i follow your blogs and your website with much interest…..i mailed u yesterday from this website..ipost a comment here again today to please help me out…. i flashed wind 7 7004 yuki v 2.0(updatable 7.5 mango) in my htc hd2….. but when my mobile restarts it freezes in the windows 7 home….but once i soft reset from MAGDLR it worked…i used it for about 5-6 hrs the i saw that as my battery was low i tried charging it but it did not charge and orange-green light flashed so i had to switch off and switch on my mobile again to see if it charges now…but now it again froze in the windows homescreen..i even tried soft resetting it…but it did not help….now i tried reflashing the windows …it showd error regarding cannot make partition in PC..now my phone freezes whr it appears “htc quietly brilliant”…please help…i shal owe you…my hd2 is very dear…dnt tel me its bricked…plz….
Can you still load tri colour bootloader?
yes jayce i can load the tri colour bootloader where the HSPL code is displayed..and i can even load the MAGDLR menu….i hope i can recover it…..what do u think jayce
Since you still can load MAGLDR, you can reinstall WP7, Android or Windows Mobile again.
jayce i tried reinstalling it..i directly did the steps mentioned above…the instalation stopped halfway and displayed an error on my pc…it was regardin some partition error…is it because of the sd card…..and also please tell me how to reinstall must we start installation from hspl…or just instal the win 7 yuki v2 directly
Just install WP7 will do. No idea about the partition error issue…
my battery is very low now…..and htc hd2 does not charge when its switched off….coz i do not see the light……is it necessary fr the battery to be charged or it does not matter as long as i have connected it to my pc….????
Yes, you need to charge the battery. Running out of battery life during installation is a big NO.
i just bought the universal charger…il charge it and reinstall wp7 as said above…il let u know …thanks jayce 😀
hey jayce i charged my battery and reinstalled wp7…….same error came i am pasting the error please read…..it flashed in my pc…

Maybe you can refer to this – http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901495&page=3
Look alike to your issue.
Looking on websites such as xda developers, they say that you need to download software such as chevron to allow you to download applications from marketplace and zune. Is this true with your tutorial or can you just get an activation code from Microsoft and start downloading? Great videos btw.
Xda link I have been looking at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911579&highlight=How+do+I+activate+htc+hd2+live+services
I use Windows Phone 7 Marketplace for Windows PC download xap. Getting activation code is the best and easiest way.
Jayce, thanks for the great tutorial. How do I contact Microsoft to get activation code in the US? When I hit contact support on my phone it does not show a telephone number. Any help would be greatlt appreciated.
Thanks
George
Sorry, I have no idea as I am not from US. Maybe you can try to find the contact number at Microsoft website.
Hi
i got the rom now running on my HD2, but it keeps rebooting and boots magldr v1.13, auto. select whp, loud the welcome screen and boot again, help.
the rom is Windows Phone 7 7004, i missed running it as admin. is this where i did wrong?
Not sure. But you can install it again if you face bootloop issue.
Mr. jayce i installed it several times yet the same, can it be something i missed, or better to go back to w6.5?
Do you have all the prerequisites? If yes and still cannot, you can go back to WinMo or install Android.
What android would you recommend?, though 7004 is nice but we gave it enough tries..

Yup, all the required components are correct. You do enable UseLast24NAND, right? Try to reinstall WP7 ROM again. If still fail, I have no idea too. Sorry…
i try few times 🙁
ooohmmmy gooooddd YOU ARE DAMN AWESOME !! thnx for all the hard work !
Jayce i think this guide or the other that was updating to 7.5 have problem… Cause I can’t use my sd card anymore it’s broken now and I see that Mark, Vishwas… Reviving guide is not working for us cause I CANT find my card there… Better write on guide that this can broke your sd card (bye bye my sd card )
Can you detect your SD card on WP7?
I dunno… I was installing DeviceProvisioning.cab update then my mobile rebooted and i wanted install the WP7-7004-7720-Patch but my phone after reboot freezed on the pin code, so I can’t check if it work. When I discard sd card it was working fine… So i think this mean that sd card broked… I think better to write windows 7 without sd card
Hey, mine did after I was updating via Zune. It also freezes on the pin code or at the startup of wp7 when I connect the non-active simcard. So every time I reinstall the WP7 7004 the phone works perfectly. After a reboot, htc sense (me thinks) stops working.. how?
@Vishwas: Unlock SD card first. Then copy WinMo file to it.
ok il try it and let u know…
jayce as i told u …. my phone freezes as soon as it restarts….i dont know..it wasnt happening til day before yesterday….now everytime i restart i need to reflash wp7 to make it work…
Now when i tried installing the SD card unlock through the cab sender..as you know the phone restarts to complete the installation….so now when my phone restarts it freezes and i am not able to goto device storage option in wp7 and select unlock……i dont know why my phone freezes after it restarts…

hola amigo, encontre wp7 con la ultima actualizacion, agradezco mucho tu colaboracion…
te dejo el link de la ultima actualizacion de wp7 :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912416
This is old green WP7 Mango ROM.
Hey Jayce, I have a question. I have successfully installed wp7 on my hd2 and I am able to use internet, windows live services, etc. However, there is a big problem with my memory space. Htere is virtually no space available to do anything else. for example, after a couple text conversations, the phone alerts me about a low memory on the device. When connected to zune on my computer the phone shows 0.0MB available of free space. I’m wondering if there if anyone knows what to do here.
Also, when in the marketplace, i try to install an application, like youtube or facebook, it informs me that the application info is not available for download.
thanks.
Do you have SD card on your phone?
No idea about Marketplace because I don’t have access. Still don’t get my activation code yet. 😛
no, I installed WP7 on my htc hd2 without sd card inside….!!!
thanks
No SD card is the reason of lack of disk space issue.
have I to reinstall WP7 with SD card in side …? if i put sd card inside now he destroys it. I’ve tried all 2 times,, thanks
Put SD card in. Then hard reset WP7.
Completed process successfully to Mango, SD card was in during process.
Followed steps to unlock card and create FAT32 partition, now HD2 says ‘Storage card not working’
‘Your storage card has changed, is damaged or is non-compliant.’……
Only options on screen are to turn off or make emergency call.
Have done reset using red button by sd slot, and using MAGLDR reset, restarted with / without card, same screen which I can not get past. Please HELP.
Why do you want to unlock SD card and create FAT32? Do you plan to dual boot WP7 and Android?
I thought I had to, but I was also considering a dual boot.
Am re-installing from original …Yuki.., then doing 7720-Patch with no card installed.
Can I then just insert a new sd card and reset / reboot HD?
Yes, just put in SD card then hard reset WP7.
Also, when I ran the .bat file, it gave an error message for CHOICE not being a command, so I edited the file to goto S option directly, which worked fine.
hola amigo, el proceso de instalar el mango me daño la micro sd, y no me sirve, he intentado arreglarla con el tutorial pro no he podido, tienes algun video tutorial de como arreglar la micro sd?.. o podrias hacer una tutorial en video ?…
mil gracias.
No video tutorial for unlock SD card. Just refer to the step by step guide.
hey jayce….as u said i can unlock my sd card from the mentioned nokia phones….what is the procedure to unlcok it….will just inserting the sd card unlock it????
Nokia smartphone can detect and format the card. I don’t have the detail because I don’t have Nokia smartphone.
i have done this and when its done booting everything it freezes. I need help!!???

Hi Jayce,
I’m trying to install this WP7 on my HD2. I did everything from the very beginning regarding your tutorials. I’ve got 2.08 HSPL, radio 2.15.50.14 and maldr1.13… all operations are completed with success, but the WP7 i stuck on HTC quietly brilliant screen. I’ve tried to reinstall it several times but nothing gets better. Do you have any ideas for this situation?
To clarify I’ve tried it on 2 computers – with Vista and W7
Sorry, nope if you follow the exact step by step as mine. And have all the same installed component and versions…
Hi,
i did everything as explained. But HD2 stops while booting when the “HTC quietly brilliant” screen appears…
the same situation is with mine. After few tries MAGLDR is rebooting all the time. I don’t know completly why, because now even this quietly brilliant screen does not appear.
Jayce maybe now you have any ideas?
What do you think about comming back to WM6.5 with 3.03 HSPL an than trying again?
After making hundreds of HRs, installing everything from the very begining… nothing has changed!
After installing all components I get:
Booting WPH
WPH LOAD
123456
GO GO GO!
bum! htc logo appears, and it disappear after one second…
Booting WPH… again and again…
Installing Official ROM goes without any problem.
IMHO there’s some issue with MAGLDR… any ideas?
Hmm… I don’t have issue with above steps as shown in the video. Please consult others at XDA. They might faced the same issue and can help…
I was searching through some forums, xda and polish pdaclub including…
Such issues can happen if we are using ‘wrong’ sdcard. In most cases the best one for this wp7 is Sundisc class 4. Does anyone of you have such sdcard and check it? I’m using some no-name card 8gb also class 4, but as you can see the system cannot load.
Please give us a sign if this info helped you.

I have noticed that I have serious problem…
After coming back to official rom, there is problem with making phone calls.
When I try to call anyone there is terible bzzzz against beep in the speaker! The phone is stuck after pressing ‘red’ button :/ Do you know what can be wrong!?
I came back to 3.03HSPL
No idea. Maybe you want to restore back to stock original Windows Mobile without HSPL – https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/08/15/how-to-restore-stock-rom-on-htc-hd2-video/
I hav installed android on htc hd2 . Now I want to install Windows mobile 7 mango , when I connect htc to my pc it hang on wait usb,,,,,,
I think its not showing connected via usb please guide me what to do
You need to have Windows Mobile Device Center installed on Windows Vista / 7 or ActiveSync installed on Windows XP. MAGLDR needs its USB driver.
A few questions:
Do I need to do anything with the SD card (Like format or remove) when I do this? (I know I have to back up what I want to keep)
After I am done will I need to do something to make the SD card accessible in WP7? (I may be thinking of instructions for an older ROM I read)
Will I have HTC Sense on the phone when I am done installing this ROM?
Or is it something I can download or get from the Marketplace?
Thanks. Excited to try it.
No need to format or remove.
No. Just use Zune Software to access SD card from PC.
WP7 does not have HTC Sense.
On question 2.. I meant to access SD card from the phone (read, write to it).
Thx
You can unlock SD card yourself. WP7 locks it by default.
I think I meant HTC hub and not HTC sense… sorry.
I don’t think HTC Hub is included too. Did not notice it when I test this ROM.
But can it be added to WP7 if it’s not included in the ROM?
I couldn’t find any info on that on the web, just demos of how HTC hub works.
I did not test it on this WP7 ROM. You can try. https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/01/17/turn-htc-hd2-into-htc-hd7/
I would do Chevron AFTER this ROM, or INSTEAD of this ROM?
Or are you saying I can just try the HTC OEM applications on this ROM and see if they work?
Thanks..sorry for all my confusion.
ChevronWP7 is old method for old ROM. Use this instead – https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/09/19/how-to-unlock-jailbreak-sideload-apps-to-windows-phone-7/
Hello Jayce,
Firstly let me say thanks for all the information you have produced it made installing WP7 very simple and runs perfectly on my HD2. I have access to everything after calling Microsoft and getting my access code.
Initially I tried a 16gb Duracell SD but this has issues so I gave up with that and tried a Sandisk 2gb card which was perfect!!
I have a piece of imformation that might interest others, the HTC HD7 WP come pre installed with the Sandisk 16gb SD class 4 so I have bought one for my HD2.
Obviously the SD runs hand in hand with the HD2 and if removed wont start(well it wont for me) As I have bought the 16gb Sandisk class 4 card I would like to copy the information from my 2gb to my new 16gb but the card is locked of course, I don’t want to mess my installation up but I would like to copy it over without issue, I know I can unlock the 2gb card but will this affect my information installed?
Hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks again Jayce
kind regards
Glen Chamberlain
Unlock SD card won’t affect the content in the card.
Hello Jayce,
Tried the DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab(just to unlock) using WP7-Update-Cab-Sender but I get this message:
ERROR: The installed version of ZuneWMDU (4.8.2345.0) doesn’t match the tool version (4.8.2134.0)
I was wondering if there is a work round for this maybe duping/rewriting the DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab?
Is this because my WP7 updated? and if so what can I do?
regards Glen 🙂
You need to have Zune Software v4.8.2134.0.
Can you explain how to do that?
If its not possible how would I go about loading WP7 to my 20gb SD bearing in mind I have to remove my 2gb from my HD2 or can it be done outside the HD2 and through my Laptop via a reader?
I also have no idea on this. Try to find Zune v4.8.2134.0 on Internet.
So far I know it can be unlocked in phone only.
Thanks a lot Jaceooi…..Your INSTRUCTIONS were very helpful….Got WP7 working on my HD2
HI JAYCE..
With the above mentiond MOD, I see that sometimes, the phones gets hanged and there is no response to any of the HW buttons. Even restarting phone by removing the battery, does not solve the issue. The phone still appears to be stuck/hanged.

Sorry, I have no idea on WP7 hang issue. Please consult ROM chef at XDA.

I have followed all the instruction and I have completely flash wp7 on my t mobile hd2, but there is a problem with it. My HD2 reboot itself and i can’t used my touchscreen. I’m using 8gb sandisc class 4 while flashing wp7 on it. what do I need to do?
Not sure what’s wrong with touchscreen. You can restore back to WinMo if you want.
https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/08/15/how-to-restore-stock-rom-on-htc-hd2-video/
joy after i’ve installed wp7 on my HTC HD2 it works but when i restart the device then it keep restarting on and on, what shoul i do?
Restart steps above again.
Hey I have a little problem
when I reboot my device I can´t do anything in the lockscreen, so I cant use my phone
is there any solution?
Is your touchscreen hardware still okay? You can restore back to WinMo to double confirm.
https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/08/15/how-to-restore-stock-rom-on-htc-hd2-video/
my rouchscreen is still ok, because if I do a reflash ic can work wizh the phone but only if I reboot my device the lockscreen dosn´t work
Then it is ROM issue. I can’t help much. Please consult ROM chef. 😉
it had to do with my sd card (;
Hai Jayce..
I have installed Windows Phone 7 7004 on my HD2, but when I want to restart my phone, it fail to reload to Windows Phone after MGLDR display..and it will happen repeatedly . The phone will restart itself but cannot open windows phone..Can you explain to me why its happen..??
Sorry Eric. I have no idea as mine is working fine after restart. You can try to reinstall WP7 ROM. See the issue will happen again or not.
HI Jayce,
I had a HTC HD2 in German Langugae, just today updated to the 3.14 RUU. Now i want to have Englis OS on it.. What do you suggest? When in switch on the phone with Volume down button
It shows SPL 3.03.0000. I really want English.. Want to try this before going to Android. Pls guide me for the same.
Thanks
Can’t you change to English in language settings?
No, there is no option like that.. 🙂
Do you know any english compatible ROM for Germany o2 ROM. Long back contacted HTC service center.. they told it cant be done.
And coming to WP 7 ? can you suggest me how to start with!
Thanks
Sorry, no idea.
As for WP7, follow this guide to install.
HI,
Insalled the WP7 Twilight.. Seems like its working smooth. I faced some problem with drivers but was able to figure it out and install.. worked like charm!!!
Now i am planning to INstall Android on my SD card!! Jayce.. let me a know which Android Version to install, which should have all the HTC sense features, WIFI and everything should work properly..
thanks
I seldom use SD Android. So no idea. Please have a look at XDA website for latest builds.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=735

I did remove the 2 partiiton and created a new partition FAT32.. But i did this using a Nokia Phone! So should i use a card reader or should it work? I am unable to copy any files to SD card.. what shuld i do now?
This was what I did on older WP7 version.

Hi,
I have a problem after following all the steps.
Everything went fine just that in the end I get:
There is a storage error
your storage card seems to have changed we need you to use the card that came with the phone. Please turn off your phone and make sure your card is properly inserted in the slot. ugh please help.
What can I do. Someone else said that fixed the issue but didn’t say how.
My storage card is a kingston 4GB and its true, is not the original that came with the phone.
Use Reply function to ask those managed to solve it.
Hi! I am a noob (As in i have never done stuff like this before) and i bought an hd2 just to try this but when i clicked on the link to download the ROM nothing happened. The link doesn’t seem to be working. Do u know any other sources to download the rom from? Anything would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Look like Multiupload.com server is down for the moment. Try your luck at XDA website.
Alright will give it a try. Thanks for the quick response and thanks a lot for the instructions and the videos! They’re a great help!
Hi. I went through a few threads on xda and it seems that multiuploads.com shut down because megauploads.com shut down. I have no idea where to download this rom now. I have noticed that a few videos of the hd2 running wp7 on youtube point to HD2O roms. Would that work with ur method? If not then what else can i do?
Umm….correction: multiuploads.com ‘may’ be shut down.
The installation should be the same for all WP7 ROM. Consult ROM chef for details if not sure.
Alright…will do.
Jayce I could only find the xbmod-yuki rom v2.1. Can i still apply the 7004-7720 update patch on it that u mentioned in ur mango installation post?
Sorry, no idea as I did not try v2.1.
Thanks for the assistance anyway. But I have one quick question….which wp7 rom do u think is the best right now….any suggestion would be great.
I don’t use WP7. No idea. To me, Android is better. 😉
Hi Jayce,
Your method and guide given above worked perfectly.
I wanted to ask is Windows Phone 7 build 7004 XBmod-Yuki ROM v2 this already jailbroken?
because I wanted to DL apps on pc and install on my hd2 instead of doing the whole activation thing. Could you please advise me
Not sure about 7004. I tested on 7720.
https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/09/19/how-to-unlock-jailbreak-sideload-apps-to-windows-phone-7/
I was just about to use this method
https://www.jayceooi.com/2011/01/17/turn-htc-hd2-into-htc-hd7/
so I shouldn’t?
You can try if you want.
Hey Jayce,
Umm…I currently have the wm6.5 on my hd2…can I just flash wp7 with that or do I need to flash another wm6.5 rom? Im just incredibly confused! Thanks.
What i mean is do i have to flash a seperate wm6.5 rom first before flashing wp7?
No, just follow the installation guide will do.
Hi, Please help! I followed the guide but the download to the rom is unavailable. I have all the pre-requisites complete and now cannot do anything without the DWI.exe file.
Me too 🙁 pls help
please if anybody has downloaded Windows Phone 7 build 7004 XBmod-Yuki ROM v2 for HTC HD2 before multiupload.com was closed to contact me and send it to me 🙂
Hey
the download link for the rom is broken have you a mirror?
Sorry, no mirror.
Does this also work for samsung omnia pro b7610?
I would love it if I can install wp 7 or 7.5 on my samsung
Sorry, it is for HTC HD2 only.
Aw okay, too bad. You have any idea if it’s possible in another way to get wp7 on this phone?
Sorry, totally no idea…
Hi Jayce,…the link for the Windows Phone 7 build 7004 XBmod-Yuki ROM v2 for HTC HD2 that you put over here is not working for me…
Is there any way to get WP 7 build 7004.
Hi KP, you can try to find it at XDA website. Or try other build like this https://www.jayceooi.com/2012/03/17/download-install-wp7-tango-8773-rom-for-htc-hd2/
Hello Jayce,
Currently running my HD2 with the original release of WP7, planning on updating immediately to the unlocked 87 tango release series. I was informed on that page that you just follow the original instructions. My only issue is the download link for WP7-7004-7720-Patch.zip is now dead and completely unfindable elsewhere on the net. Is this update still needed? If so are you aware of any other download links for it.
Cheers
Hi Shafter, no other link. Or you try this Tango build – https://www.jayceooi.com/2012/03/17/download-install-wp7-tango-8773-rom-for-htc-hd2/
Thank you very much for your help Jayce 🙂
When I try to install the radio and the ROM utility I get an error message 240 cannot open file, check update utility
I did successfully install the SPL-2.08 HSPL
hi there! i was just wondering if a 2GB sd card will suffice for only WP7 and both android and WP7? may i know the minimum requirement for these two cases? thanks in advance.
WP7 only should be okay. But not both. Better have 2GB minimum for each OS.
Is there any WP7 Rom which doesn’t require SD card so that I can install android on the SD card for dual booting?
I don’t think so.
thanks.
Thanks
Man, can you reupload the link for “Windows Phone 7 build 7004 XBmod-Yuki ROM v2 for HTC HD2” because the link’s for “Hotfile” & “DepositFiles” is down:)
Hi Rolland, ROM chef uploaded the ROM. I also don’t have the ROM now. Sorry. Try to find new download link at XDA website.
ok man.Tnx
Hey Jayce,
I have a problem in the ROM i downloaded coz when i run the DWI after i click on ‘next’ once then it appears ‘error.: readme.txt missing’
I installed it still but its not rebooting… when i try to reboot the htc logo keeps on coming and going.
Thanks in advance.
Sorry Manoj, I have no idea what went wrong. Try to reinstall it again. If still cannot, try other ROM.
can u give me a link for another rom… thanks 🙂
Here you are, Manoj.

I have a question… is there any other magldr for hd2 other than DFT magldr? (like clk magldr)
because i don’t think i have DFT magldr… can it be a reason for the difference?
There is CLK. But I did not try it before.
Thanks a lot i did it and its working smooth….. 🙂 also i got the activation code by chatting online with a microsoft staff… so market place is working too… 🙂
I wanted to ask a question if i take out the sim card and unlock and format it and then put it back will WPH7 still work?
No idea Manoj.
or can u send me the file attached to my e-mail…
File too big to attach in email.
The Tango rom is in a different format, .rar with no .cab files, from 7704 rom, please can you direct me to the appropriate section of your excellent instructions to deal with this format, obviously not CAB-sender.
Hi Andrew, I am not so sure about that because I did not try it. Please consult others at XDA website. Thanks.
Don’t worry with the .rar and .cab…. Make a folder on your desktop (named e.g. HTC HD2 Tango) and extract files to it from the zip folder you download.
Now follow the same steps as the above video…. thats what i did and its working fine 🙂

Hi, 🙂
I cant download the file… :'( i already did all the steps to install this but i cant download the wphone 7 file from that link . Please help me can u give me another link PLEASE!!!!!1
thanks , GOOD WORK
Sorry Javier, I don’t have other download link. Try to look at XDA website. Or Google for it.
This may be a silly question, but my phone doesn’t have an SD card in it, never has, (I bought it second hand).
Now, I have a brand new one, kingston micro sd, that I could put in it. I guess it must need one in it to install mango? But if it never came with one am I going to be able to get past this “insert original sd card” people have mentioned?
I suppose I don’t really understand the purpose of the sd card, other than to get itself encrypted at the end. Do I have to do anything with it, or just insert the blank card.
Thank you for your patience.
SD card acts as part of internal storage for WP7. You can install WP7 without it but can’t put much apps or files later.
Just put SD card in before WP7 installation.
