Gold Card - For Android Phones

This guide explains how to create a GoldCard. A GoldCard is a special SD card which, when inserted into your device, allows you to flash RUU files with a different CID to your own device. For example, if you own a T-Mobile branded device, this will allow you to flash a generic ROM.

Requirements

• Spare microSD card
• Windows PC (recommended)
• ADB (part of the tools folder of the SDK, available for download Here
• HxD Hex Editor, available for download Here

 Step by step instructions

• Format the microSD card to FAT32 format.
• Put the microSD card in your device and boot it.
• Ensure you have unzipped the SDK, then open a command prompt to the extract location. Change to the 'tools directory.
• Enter 'adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid' and press enter. You should get a very long number which looks like this: 532600bd227d9c0347329407514d5402.
• Visit this page  paste in your number and reverse it. In our example the result would be
• Visit this page   enter your reversed number and create your goldcard image, which will be e-mailed to you.
• Open the HxD hex editor. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, you must run the application as administrator.
• Go to the 'Extra' menu and select 'Open Disk'. Under physical disk, select Removable Disk (your microSD card), uncheck 'Open as Readonly' and click OK. Note that you should select physical disk NOT the logical disk. This is important!
• Go to the 'Extra' menu again and select 'Open Disk Image'. Open the goldcard image that you received by email.
• You should now have two tabs - one is your removable disk, the other is your goldcard image. Press OK when prompted for 'Sector Size' (selecting 512 (Hard disks/Floppy disks)) and click OK.
• Click on the goldcard image tab. Go to the 'Edit' menu, choose 'Select All' then select the 'Edit' menu again and select 'Copy'.
• Click on the 'Removable Disk' tab. Highlight offset (line) 00000000 to offset (line) 00000170 (including the 00000170 line), then click on the 'Edit' menu and select 'Paste Write'.
• Click on the 'File' menu and select 'Save', accepting the warning.

how to repair totally damaged s1 android phones, based on msm7227,qsd8250, using alternative security bypass using testpoint

okay, here is example how to resurrect totally dead x10 phone.
so, we have x10 phone with totally erased semcboot and trim area.
phone does not turn on, does not connect to pc anyhow.

lets resurrect it

run setool2, select x10 as model, select com port as interface
( one where GPG resurrection cables connected )

1.
on options set signed mode,altbypass mode, use testpoint (gnd type)

2.

connect GPG x10 resurrection craddle to phone, press RECOVERY
follow program instructions.

important notice:

for msm7227 phones, insert battery in phone after you attached testpoint.

btw, as phone has erased semcboot, you do not need apply testpoint that time.
however, that is very special case, so for simplicity lets apply testpoint all time.

here is operation output:

Code:

SUCCESS

now we recovered semcboot and prepared trim area for loading.
if phone only had erased semcboot, it will already work after that step.
but our phone TOTALLY damaged, so lets proceed with second step:

we need now load trim area.

options are same for step1 + "format gdfs when writing" checked,
select x10.zip in misc.edit and press "write gdfs".
( any trim area, read from corresponding model live phone will work )
follow program instructions.

here is operation output:

HOW TO WORK WITH SEMC ODM PHONES

basics

semc odm phones divide on two big branch:

obsolete cheap phones,where each phone has own loader and approach
j110,j120,j210,j220,z300,k200,k220,etc

that phones not have anything common with semc structure.

and current generation, so-called S1 phones - they based on ti chipsets, st-ericsson (former philips) chipsets
j132,z320,t250,w302,f305,s312,w100,w150,etc.

that phones has good semc structure: color,cid (aid), signatures,etc
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLASHING OF SEMC S1-BASED ODM PHONES

1. select correct model
2. use com/ufs/usb as interface
3. check "signed mode"
3. add to firmware area needed firmware files
4. press flash

notes:
some old locosto s1 phones does not support usb as interface

if you want flash brown firmware or readout, step 3 will be:
3. check "signed mode","alternative security bypass"


about SEMC S1 ODM files structure:

1. neptune-based (w302,s302,f305) , ST-Ericsson-based (w100,w150)

firmware contain 3 required parts:

- main (ex: R1BA017_1207_9123_GENERIC_HS_YG_RED.software)
- fs (ex: R1BA017_1207_9132_FS_ADRIATIC_HS_YG_RED.software)
- customization (ex: R6A_F305_CDF_1215_9665__FS__Entel_PCS_CL.software)

you need flash all 3 files to get phone working with desired langugaes.

F305, S302, W302 SW flash should be done without memory card inserted.
If the memory card is inserted during flash the flash can fail.

If you encounter this problem,the phone does not startup correctly after flash, please wait 2-3 minutes
then reinsert the battery and start the phone again.
The phone should now start normally and the SW has been correctly updated.
Please note that the SW is flashed correctly and this will not cause any future startup problem.
