HSPL

for HTC second generation devices

with Windows Phone 7

for HTC Titan/Omegia

After a hard and long work during few months, our team proudly presents our release.

We tried to make it simple as usual, but it's not really easy task.

So the current HSPL installation requires rather big amount of actions with device.

This release consists from HSPL wizard and a special set of files.

Do not update your device to 4.XX ROMs via RUU or Zune!

It's not known if possible to revert that SPL versions back.

Supported WP7S devices

*Omega (HTC Radar C110e)

*Titan (HTC Eternity X310e)

HTC Radiant (Titan II) IS NOT SUPPORTED!

Both Omegas are supported regardless of body color :D

Most of these devices have several MIDs (ModelID, looks like “PI391100”).

The current release supports only some limited numbers of MIDs. This was designed to minimize a possible harm to user’s devices.

List of supported MIDs:

Titan: "PI39****", “PI391100", "PI391000"

Omega: "PI06****”, “PI061100, “PI061000"

!Please note that on SPL screen MID is only 7 symbols, without last one.!

Programs stops any operations if unknown MID detected. If your device have unknown MID, please report about it in this thread.

Specify your MID, device name, ROM versions. It’s nice, if you can give a link to download ROM.

Basic stuff to know

SPL is Secondary Program Loader. It allows to flash ROMs to device.

Without working SPL device is fully bricked, you can’t restore it. It’s why all operations with SPL are dangerous.

OSPL is Original SPL. This SPL comes with stock ROM and doesn’t allow to flash custom stuffs.

HSPL is Hard SPL. It’s permanently flashed to internal device memory and replaces OSPL. After soft reset you still have HSPL instead of OSPL.

Installation

for Titan:

0. Try to install right SPL with RUU.

Important Notes

-2: New ROMs come with 1750 version must have same radio (with 1750 also). You need to have same OEM and RADIO version, otherwise ROM won't boot.

-1: It seems that it's a bug inside SPL: you can connect device in SPL mode to PC via USB only ONCE.

You need reset device to connect it again.

0. You will lost all data during HSPL installation. Make a backup before.

1. Before doing any operations be sure you have battery level more than 50%!

2. Battery is NOT charged in SPL mode with USB connected!

Sometimes in SPL mode WP7F devices DO NOT charge. You may got a dusty brick if it was powered down during SPL or RADIO update!

3. Stock RUU ROMs have two NBH files inside, SPL_Signed and RUU_Signed.

So it's not possible directly flash stock ROM, you need to remove SPL from NBH.

4. Rememeber if you have HSPL and you flashing stock RUU_Signed.nbh you lost HSPL!

5. Supported OS: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7. Is not tested on Windows 8.
