hi!

Maybe you are a good person and you want to help. But, your thread name says:

Hard-SPL - or How to Not Brick your Phone DOWNLOAD HERE, FLASHING LIGHTS!

your first message doesn't say anything about what IPL/SPL version are needed for hardSPL.

Now i have bricked my phone because i was so stupid to believe what you have posted in the first message and the title.

I have used hard spl for wizzard and prophet without any problem.

I think it's your duty to try to help us all unbrick our phones!

just in case you are not interested only in donations...

I will explain what happened to me:

i have started RUU Wrapper and accepted all terms and i have received a message that the RUU update cannot proceed.

After i have pressed finish i've seen a message on the screen on the phone, with two options yes / no. because it was in italian and i didn't understand i have pressed si / yes. the phone restarted and from that moment i cannot pass bootloader. i cannot understand, i didn't flashed anything only the cab that was installed... what must be done to escape from bootloader.

i saw you told someone to do some settings using mtty but i cannot give the command set 16 0 and task 8.

what do you say???

I have IPL / SPL 1.08.0001

i have attached the screen after i write the password in mitty maybe will help
[Wing, P4350 General] laseru:
Does anybody knows what RUUFAIL means at the end of the mesaage mitty is giving me after password?

After i have tryed to HardSPL my SPL wasn't changed but i am still in bootloader, and everytime i try to update i receive ERROR 300. invalid update tool.
[Wing, P4350 General] The Dutchman:
I wouldn't have tried it with my SPL on 1.xx, it was mentioned in the First post..
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
For me it was working when:

1. install canonyang.cab

2. install aserpolicy.cab

3- install disablesecurity.cab

4. SOFTRESET

5. run RUU from Hard-SPLWM6 folder verison 4.70.yang

6. screen will become white - WAIT until it reboots itselfe.

7. done!

check if SPL now is 4.70.yang

Fore sure: I used this

http://rapidshare.de/files/38148213/HardSpl_WM6.rar.html

It worked for many others, too.

@canonyang and olipro - i wanted to hold it back until you release it again. But now as people are bricking their devices again I wanted to be sure that they are taking a version wich worked for many people. Equal if it is canonyang or basicly yours work!
[Wing, P4350 General] laseru:
yes is mentioned after 2nd jan 2008. i tried this last year :D

Olipro you are the one who can change my opinion ...
[Wing, P4350 General] itje:
worked 4 me too
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
thanks - hehe...
[Wing, P4350 General] sammy__s:
In your RAR-Archive is the "canonyang.nbh" - can I exchange it directly with the Touch-IT file, or must I use the "canonyang.nbh" for the first time doing the Hard-SPL?
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
try first with canonyng.nbh - just for be sure!!!!

it is 10 minutes more - but i know this way is working...
[Wing, P4350 General] Kelvino9:
Yes, for the first time flshing you need the canonyang.nbh to get HardSPL. after a successful flash you are free to flash any Herald ROM out there.
[Wing, P4350 General] The Dutchman:
Always do it the way it is 'officially' posted and/or provided,

just to make sure:)
[Wing, P4350 General] rootmeet:
Need more help on C800

papamopps

Can you post following items

1. canonyang.cab

2. aserpolicy.cab

3- disablesecurity.cab

I am hard to find those

Thanks in advance:)
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
they are ALL included in the Rapidsharelink!!!!
[Wing, P4350 General] itje:
I used this to, and its the first that worked on my device, I tried all other sollutions, but this worked as a charm.

I hope the issues around this can be solved and that herald users can use a safe and working hard-spl.

Our device is getting "older" and all other devices that has been around 4 awhile has all features unlocked and safe hard-spl working with no problem.

Herald is not the most "popular" device for some reason, and I understand that its not on the developers top-list. I also know that olipro and the other developers are deeply involved in other projects that consume alot of time.

I can only suggest that maybe someone could start up a "herald" project, and do as in many other forums, start up collecting "donations" to buy a herald to one or many developers. Or maybe someone can offer to loan it to a developer?

This is a way that has been proven effective on other devices. Because its so much easier to make/develop a fix when you actually have the device.

I have enough work on my hands, so I dont want to lead on in doing that, but I will join in and donate, even though im not a herald "user" anymore. I would offer my herald, but since im in the buisness of creating roms, I need it myself to test what I do. But if thats the only way to do it, I will consider it.

cheers
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
I think Olipro and canonyand made a good job. and it is safe!!!

This version worked now for:

XDA terra (my device, gambit, and other)

HTC P4350 (many people)

Vodafone Compact IV (tommy)

And once Hard-SPLed you never have to do it again.

But indeed i read also the posts about donating for devices for developing - and yes it is a good idea.

But not to be unrespectable to other - you itje are the man for this job. But you are working on other projects, too.

And ivanmmj told us that he takes a break...

So who stays??
[Wing, P4350 General] Kelvino9:
HardSPL works great

+1 on that
[Wing, P4350 General] kdskamal:
@papamopps: works fine for Dopod C800 too. :)

Thanks to canonyang!(and olipro(of course))
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
we will get you ALL.

HARD-SPL rocks ;)

Sorry worng thread - you are in Herald and not WIZARD!!!
[Wing, P4350 General] cmonex:
ah well, i see the moderators edited first post since then. anyway i'll get Olipro to look, i think he missed this thread and your post. (and also if you notice in his signature he's been busy elsewhere recently :P )

really all that needs to be done is change the uploaded SPL to the older one he made and which works perfectly (and which is also used in canonyang's release). sorry to see that neglecting this caused more bricking.

p.s.: heh 200th post

[Wing, P4350 General] ivanmmj:
I want to request a feature. :-) I'm looking for a way to bypass the 50mb (51,200kb) file size requirement for the os.nb within the nbh file that stops Herald users from having true big storage ROMs. It seems that the storage space is formatted by the SIZE of the os.nb and not by the partition table within it. I'm not 100% sure if this is something in the SPL or the flasher, but it's there never-the-less. The Artemis has the same issue. They go around it by flashing through their SD cards but my card is dead so I can't test it.
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
we will not have a customRUU that will allow flashing bigger roms. That has something to do with the chip our devices are using...

maybe the sdcard version wokrs. BUT i don´t need so much space if i have all programs included in rom.
[Wing, P4350 General] ivanmmj:
Some people don't have SD cards or just like the idea of more space. The DOC chip was theorized to not allow us to gain space gained from making our os.nb smaller but as you have seen with all of our ROMs, the smaller ROMs DO give us space back. The only problem now is the file size requirement which stops us from having ROMs with 70mb free and such. (Or in a non-crippled OS, around 55-60 mb free.)
[Wing, P4350 General] ivanmmj:
Does the hardSPL support flashing through SD card?

[Wing, P4350 General] kasperghost:
Hi guys,

at first i want to thank you for any solution or info you provide in this forum, it helped me in a lot of cases.

I'm looking for a solution for a problem i'm facing, I have two P4350 which the second is from a friend of mine.

This P4350(HERA100 IPL/SPL 4.x) was bought through ebay and had the german windows mobile 6.0 on it. I couldnt flash the WWE edition of windows mobile 6 because of an error saying "Invalid Vendor ID" so i assume it was a CID Locked, so I did the first thing i found on this forum and after a lot of reading on how to do it, i installed the Hard SPL from Aserg. The problem is when I try to install the extended rom which comes from the distributor here in Greece of HTC Phones.

Apparently they have done something and somehow it recognizes that i have installed wrong SPL and always reboots(it displays an error msg inside the OS enviroment and after 5 sec it reboots) when the WWE OS start after the installation of the programs inside off Extended ROM. So after some more reading i found that i could have used the USPL method for bypassing the CID Lock. Correct?

Now my problem is that I want to remove the Hard SPL to install the officially shipped edition of SPL + WWE ROM using USPL. Whichever solution I use to remove the Hard SPL it just wont go away! It says that is being flashed but the SPL doesnt even change! Is there any workaround/solution for this problem? I have no problem to use any tools or console based ones but I need some information or a tutorial so as to not brick the device.

Thanx in regard for any help and sorry for the long post but I wanted to describe all the steps that I followed to get here.

PS. If this post is in the wrong thread please tell me so.

Im stuck in bootloader. I cant flash anything on my device. I have tried the goldcard method, but my herald would only check sdcard 2 seconds then goes straight to bootloader (sdcard works because i can use it to flash my htc dream from sd with a goldcard created with qmat). I cant get recovery.img or an original nbh renamed to heraimg.nbh to work with the sdcard. I tried using the flash center from the USPL tool from the touch-it roms. I tried flashing a original spl.nbh from a stock rom and hardspl .nbh with it , but the USPL tool will go to 2% and say error 244 invalid model id. Is there anything left i can try?

It has:

IPL 4.17.0001

Here's the beta version of USPL for herald, I did it a while ago but received few feedback: only 1 wing user (Paul from modaco) reported it working.

As beta, this does not flash SPL on device, to use just put the NBH you want to flash on the RUU folder and start herald-uspl.exe

Please report success or failure, remember it's beta, use at your own risk

I leave the final "Hard-SPL" version to you Olipro

[Wing, P4350 General] oddball1:
I speak fluent english and I have a vodafone(NL) CID locked Herald.

I used the USPL to upgraded to wm6! I have the touch-it 1.1

Everything worked perfectly and very easy by the way!

Here it goes:

HERALD USPL

-----------

(C) pof @ XDA-Developers - August 2007 This is a patched SPL for

HTC Herald devices ( HTC P4350, Dopod C800, Dopod C858, Vodafone VPA Compact IV, O2 XDA Terra, etc...)

This SPL is based on original HERALD 5.04 SPL but includes 3 patches:

1. g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = 0 (set 32)

2. Does not check Model ID

3. Does not check signature*(*) code must be formally signed

i.e. contain properly-formated signatures on their places, however no checking are performed against them.

This means you can flash ANY ROM to your Herald after flashing USPL on it, no need to pay for CID unlock

anymore!

Disclaimer: This is free to use but at your own risk, I take no responsibility for any conflict,

fault, or damage caused to your phone by this unlocking procedure. No warranties of any kind are given.

Any commercial usage prohibited. Instructions:

1. Unzip on c:\ use a folder name with no spaces on it.

2. Connect your phone to computer, make sure activesync is enabled (green icon)

3. Run herald-uspl.exe on

your computer and follow instructions on screen.

4. If you have problems, install RAPI/EnableRapi.cab on

your device, and retry after.
[Wing, P4350 General] oddball1:
! question remains, now I have touch-it 1.1, can I install anochter wm6 like PDAVIET on my herald and if so, how? hard reset my herald and use the USPL again?????????????
[Wing, P4350 General] canonyang_China:
Download vodefone offical RUU,upgrade your Compact IV to wm6 first,and this program can be the tool to make you unbrick your device.

PDAVIET or touchit1.1 are both using the Aserg's way to write os.nb to your ppc.so the same to do.

also beyond pof's uspl tool,your can make an nbh file yourself and flash fluently without any error.

when error appear,just use your offical ruu to fix
