Help Do I need a Goldcard

Hi, thanks for taking the time to read my post. Im a noob at this and would appreciate any advise you can give.

I have root on my dhd, It is branded i think as it has orange splash screen on boot and branding to the phone also.

I've followed the instructions on this forum "How to flash a custom rom on your desire HD, and not fail"

Radio S-off.................done
easy radio tool.exe.......done
Eng S-off.....................done

Ive tested as it describes:
ace pvt eng s-off .......correct
cid- 11111111 ...........corrrect

This is where my confusion begins, I've read that when trying to flash a branded phone (as mine is), you need to have a Goldcard.

Ive also read that if your phone has cid- 11111111 then there is no need for a goldcard and you can go ahead and start the flashing of your custom rom.

I intend to flash a custom rom and my current software version is 1.40.61.2 HBOOT is 0.85.2007

Can you advise please

Regards Jody
