Hi, I've got some terrible problems when I flash the Rom. It appears "ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR" and then my phone restarts to the original rom. the phone is a T-Mo contract phone.

I've read the instruction, noticed all the points, tried different microSD cards, use Admin to run the HxD, select physical disk etc.

However, I find that when I get the .img file from the web, it appears that it only has contents between line $000 to $100(incl.), so when I copy and overwrite the disk file, it only covers line $000 to $100. Not sure if that's the reason.

Please can anyone help...

I am having the same problem.

I have the Desire connected to the pc via USB with the connection type set to 'Disk drive'.
The SD card in the device is formatted as FAT32.
I have unpacked the archive and have a CMD prompt open in the 'tools folder'

But... I get 'device not found' on running the command. What am I doing wrong please......??!!

Device: HTC Desire S-OFF
Radio: 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23
Recovery: Amon_RA 2.0.1
ROM: InsertCoin CM7 1.0.4

Ditto

I didn't have a spare micro sd card so I backed up the one which I got with my orange desire formatted it to FAT32, unzipped the sdk and did what you said in CMD prompt only to get this message:

adb server is out of date. Killing...
* daemon started successfully*
error: device not found

am pretty new to all this and totally lost in trying to find a way round it so any advice will be great

OK I have it working now. I used a similar guide here:

http://theunlockr.co...ate-a-goldcard/

It includes a couple of extra steps that us Android Newbies probably didn't realise we needed.

I have been through the whole procedure twice. The first card I tried didn't work. The 2nd one did (They were both Kingston 2GB cards). Now I just need to take a deep breath and summon up the courage to run the RUU on my brand-new phone......

Thanks for the link! Got my Goldcard working first time and didn't use an adaptor for my micro SD.

So you all know, I eventually did mine, the secret, which isnt in the instructions is that you have to have the sync software installed on the pc and have the phone set into sync mode, not usb mode

Sorry to say I couldn't get it to work with either the 4gb SanDisk micro sd card that came with the Desire or a 1gb Nokia micro sd card I also had.

Tried in Sync mode too and no go. All seems fine but get the "ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR" at end of running the RUU file.

Ordered a Kingston 2GB so will give that a whirl.

ok, yes i realise this is an Android forum, but does the Gold card work in WinMo HTC's as well? If so, that would make my days at work a whole hell of a lot easier!!

thank you, I realised what was happening, then tried to edit my post before anyone else noticed! typical, you try to do what the instructions say, many times, yet right after you post asking for help, you figure it out, damnit! :huh:

Not sure how many others this may be of use to, but I was having some troubles running the command:

Quote

adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid


I was getting a directory not found error, so decided to try and manually traverse the directories and spot the problem.

Looks as though on the Legend (or maybe just my phone, I don't know) I didn't have an mmc1 folder, but an mmc0 one instead.

By substituting mmc1 with mmc0 I managed to get my gold card apparently up and running.

Hope that's helpful to at least one other person out there...

Please can someone help me to create my gold card in osx.

I have got to adb but, my device is not showing up.

How do I get osx to recognize my desire so I can get the serial?


Thanks in advance,



Steve
