rling, thanks again for taking the time to reply.

From the begining this is my situation. I'll take it one step at a time, as I am pretty sure that I know where the sticking point now is.

I copy sspl-1.16-nike.exe onto my device, a simple copy and paste from it downloading to my PC desktop. When I 'explore' the device in ActveSync, it appears as a kermit the frog icon, but when I use 'file explorere on the device, it just appears as a teh exe file. I think this is all fine?

When I activate the .exe file using my touchscreen, it turns to the tricolour (usb) display. I unplug and reconnect the USB cable.

This is where I think the problem lies. Apart from a 'ding' on the PC, the device is invisible, both with ActiveSync and in My Computer. If I can not see the device I think that the RomUpdate Utility probably can't communicate either, hence the error message.

It's been a long weekend my friend, thanks for you patience.

Andy

PS

Are you sure that you don't do an over the phone idiots guide? ;)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
Correct

Correct again. If this happens, you can disconnect the USB cable from your computer and reconnect (at the computer end, and not your phone end). If it still fails, reboot the computer.

This 3 colour screen, with USB at bottom is the standard bootloader for the phone. All ROM updates will drop it into this screen to allow flashing of new ROMs, radios, SPL etc. You are doing everything right, except that the PC will not disconnect and reconnect the USB and probable still waiting for the old connection to be reestablished.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] hamster64:
Woohoo! One more nike device free from the Orange stranglehld. Thank you so very much.

I really was at a loss, but your continued support gave me the confidence to persevere. I have actually learnt quite a bit too, enough to have whetted my techno appetite. I am going to have a look at some of the applications that have been talked about on the forum, wish me luck. Fingers crossed I will be able to impress my I-phone owning mate at work now.

One thing that I am confused by, is the fact that when I first set up the unlocked phone, I was able to get the local weather forecast on the home screen, when I now click the refresh it, it tells me that I have no connection to GPRS or 3G! Maybe I changed something in my excitement?

Finally rling, who should I send my donation to please?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] hamster64:
Re. the bit about weather updates, I just connected up to ActiveSync and it worked, but hopefully there is a way of configuring the device to other methods.

I will persevere.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
Thanks is enough. Just help someone else in return. Someone had to teach/help me too when I started out.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:

hi, i have a t mobile rom and made all the steps...but nothing....can it be because of windows vista?

do i have to send the mobile back to t mobile?

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
If that's the case, why not reflash the US ROM?

I also note that you do not have HardSPL. Is the phone unlocked? If not, then it will not work with ROMS other than T-mobile.

ERROR [206]: UPDATE ERROR and hanging sspl-1.16-nike.exe

I'm trying to update my NIKI100. I recently upgraded it with the official HTC WM6.1 ROM. I'm having a couple of issues with that particular version and I find it rather unstable compared to the previous and default WM6 ROM.

Anyway... I don't seem to be able to upgrade it with a newer ROM nor Radio.

When I try to load one of the newer Kitchen ROMs, I get the boatloader USB screen and then it switches over to the gray progress bar screen... but it remains at 0% (both on the device and the PC). After a while, I get the "ERROR [206]: UPDATE ERROR" msg.

I also followed the flash procedure in this thread but when I run sspl-1.16-nike.exe on the device, I first get the boatloader USB screen but then it automatically switches to a gray screen with a blue "Loading..." and then it just seems to hang.

Once I get the battery out and in, I can start up again without any issues... but still with the same ROM and Radio.

I'm using a carrier-free HTC Neon (NIKI100).

ROM version: 2.09.405.1

Radio version: 1.65.28.25

Protocol version: 25.98.40.07H

SPL 1.22

CPLD 4

Could someone help?

I don't think that I actually have memory problem.

I still have about 3+GB of free memory so that can't be the issue.

When I take a look at the process list, I also don't see anything strange running that consumes alot of memory.

In fact when I try to load a new Radio or ROM on my Niki100, I get a 262 error. When I run the jockyw2001 Niki SuperCID and Security Unlocker v0.1, I get also get a 262 error on my PC. On the PDA, I just keep seeing a 0% progress bar.

Any other suggestions?

unable to flash hardspl

Hi,

I am completly new to PDA so please be patient:)

I am trying to flash my new htc dual touch (niki100) with the hardspl 1.15 available at this thread.

I can only go to step 5, because when i run sspl1.16, my pda screen goes to the 3 colors screen and usb appears, when i unplug a replug usb cable, active sync no longer goes green.

Following the tutorial i know i am not doing anything wrong, i even found on the thread someone that has the same problem... but no one provided a solution I think.

can someone help?

tks
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
When the phone is in bootloader screen (tricolor), and usb is listed, it is connected to your PC, and waiting for further instructions. You can proceed to flashing.

Activesync will not connect to the bootloader screen.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] amnesico1:
rling i'll try to help you helping me, by explaining my problems the best way i can.

I copy the file "sspl-1.16-nike.exe" to my HTC, execute it and screen goes like this:

If i unplug the usb cable and replug it, i don't get any communication error when i run "ROMUpdateUtility.exe". (but the active sync icon goes grey right after disconnecting the usb cable and doesn't go green when i replug it.) Despite the fact i'm not getting communication errors, i'm not able to flash "hardspl-1.15mfg-nike.nbh" (I have the file with that exact same name, on folder "flash-hardspl-niki" where "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" is. Here goes a few screenshoots of what's happening:

I click the update button and i get this:

After clicking next i get this:

And after clicking next it flashes something very small because it goes to 100% instantly, both on phone and on pc screen. My phone then reboots and i have to personalize a few thinks, like screen calibrating etc.... I'm guessing nothing was installed... or am I Wrong?

The other scenario is when i do not unplug the usb cable like you advised me in your previous post, but that way, i get communication error 260, and nothing else happens.

Hope you can help rling... tks in advance.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
The last posted screen is how it should be before it starts flashing. The flashing process should take a couple of minutes, and you will see the bar progress through the percentages.

Even if you are flashing the same ROM, the entire process is repeated.

You will get a far quicker flash if you are flashing only a radio or splash screen.

The entire ROM package (the .nbh file ) can range from around the 60mb to 130mb in size.

If you are just starting out, best try with official ROMs first until you get the hang of things. For these, you need to go to HTC website, and download the files from there, after entering you Device serial number etc. This is the only way to be certain that the ROM downloaded is meant for your phone.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] amnesico1:
i just want to flash the "hardspl-1.15mfg-nike.nbh"

it's 256kb, it's on "flash-hardspl-niki" folder, why isn't it flashing?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
These files have not been packaged as well as they could.

If you want to flash a particular file, eg HardSPL-1.15mfg-nike.nbh, then you need to copy that file into the Flash-HardSPL-Niki folder, and deleting the other .nbh file(s) in that folder. Each folder can only have one .nbh file, or it will flash the first one it finds.

And the flashing takes a very short time - seconds only.

Hi all

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
Have a look at the very first message of this topic.

If you have not flashed any SPL before, you need to load and run sspl on your phone first.

Then follow this:

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] LarianVonLich:
i cant understand HOW TO run HardSPL-1.15mfg-nike.nbh? from where? by what?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
Hard spl 1.15mfg-nike.nbh needs a program called CustomRUU.exe (or RomUpdateUtility.exe) to flash it to the ROM. the package in first page only has the .nbh, and not the exe to flash it.

It is run on the PC, with your phone connected.

CustomRUU will drop your phone to bootloader screen and then flash the SPL. It is also used to flash ROMs and radios.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] dannyf123:
Larian, here is how to run HardSPL-1.15mfg-nike.nbh (its an expansion of step 8 from 1st post):

-download flash-uspl-niki

-extract it

-replace the *.nbh file in the flash-uspl-niki folder with Hardspl1.15mfg-nike.nbh

-run romupdateutility.exe

It's as simple as that. I had the same problem but someone has posted this solution way back in this topic.

thank you ! waiting for your reply!

Nope. Still got SPL 1.16. Would say HardSPL 1.15 or HardSPL 1.16 otherwise.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] stationalz:
thank you for your help rling ! i want to know whats differences between spl1.22 hard and spl 1.65 hard ?why your phoenix rom need spl 1.22 ?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
HardSPL 1.15 and 1.16 are used for older ROMs with the older drivers.

When HTC released their Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM for the Touch, they made a few changes, and it needs SPL 1.22 to work properly.

All the latest phones also need SPL 1.22. As my ROM is based on the yet to be released Iolite from HTC, you will need the newer SPL for it.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] hesitant:
Hi Guys,

I hope someone can help me. After removing the usb and putting it back in my active sync does not recognise the phone is connected. I get the usual noise from windows when you connect a usb device but nothing on active sync. I've tried to connect manually but nothing works. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
Activesync will not connect in Bootloader mode (The 3 colour screen). If you look on the phone, you will see the words USB on it. If so, then the phone is ready to start flashing.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] hesitant:
Thanks rling. As I'm a complete noob at this I'm still a bit confused. I followed the instructions at the beginning of this thread. I now have an updated rom running. Hopefully it will work ok. My next task is to change the radio as I'm running 1.58.16.27. I'm on the Orange network and feel my reception is pretty poor. I'm hoping if I upgrade the radio it may give me a slightly better reception. So I tried to upgrade the radio to 1.58.23.25. I done this the same way as changing the rom. Is this correct? Because when I done it, it froze at 99%. I read somewhere that my CID is still locked. If so how do I go about this. Thanks again.

With HardSPL in place, the SPL is write protected. You can flash any ROM you want, including the official HTC WM 6.1

If you want to return the phone for warranty work, and want to erase your tracks, then you can flash SSPL first, and then reflash official SPL or just the official WM 6.1 ROM (which has SSPL 1.22 built it)

HardSPL just write protects the booloader (SPL) from being overwritten during a flashing process. It will not CID (and therefore SIM) unlockthe phone.

If all is fine, then no.

HardSPL 1.22 is the same as the SPL1.22, except that it is write protected. Useful if you intend to flash more ROMS. It will prevent the bootloader from being overwritten and also for recovery if a flash goes bad (incomplete, phone won't start etc)
