I got it to work finally. It worked running the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex straight with 'Allow USB connections' checked. I think the COM port was locked, but I'm not positive. I ended up restarting twice before it would work. I couldn't run the USPL either, it kept coming back with 'Error reading the device' even though I was in SPL and it was registering 'USB'.

Hi Crackwhore..

I just flashed my HD to SPL1.56. Then Flashed it with MaryOne ROM for 1.56.

I still get the Green issue.. Check the SPL in bootloader and got the following

BLAC100 32M

SPL-1.56.Olinex

MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6

So what did I do wrong.. BUT one thing is when I press the power off to sleepmode and on it back.. The Screen color works perfectly.. But when I do a soft reset the initial screen is greenish again..

So can advice what is wrong?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Are you certain the rom you loaded is based on the HTC 1.56 rom / 1.54 SPL?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] CheongKing:
Is there a way to check?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] metallica1:

HTC TOUCH HD..need some advice guys...

i just flashed HSPL olinex1.56 now, then miri 6.5 v8.2,

2. can i go back to miri 6.5 v8.2 if ever i succesfully flashed the new HTC TOUCH HD official rom???

Need Helps Guys...

i was wondering why i can't flash miri rom through my sd card...

i have rename to BLACIMG.NBH and copy to my root directory of my sd card and when i hold volume down button and start button go to tricolour screen and say load image fail!

can anybody tell me whats going wrong?do i miss out any step?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Now that you are running HardSPL 1.56, you can flash any 1.56-based ROM whether it is official, signed, or cooked. You can go back and forth between official and cooked roms without issue since you have a modified SPL that allows this (as long as the roms you are flashing are 1.56-based roms).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Check with the rom chef or read the post thoroughly that you got the rom from.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Does it actually start to flash the rom or does it immediately jump to "no image found" or "load image fail" ??
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] altezza6363:
it doesn't start to flash but jump to load image fail very fast and come back to tricolour screen immediately.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Ok yeah, it sounds like the typical issue with trying to flash from SD cards. Some cards work and some don't. Some won't work if they have other files on the card. Some will only work after a fresh format. Flashing from SD can be tricky so I never do it. I can never get mine to work, it says the same thing no matter what I do to it. But if I throw in a different one that I have it works fine. There's several posts and several threads about this.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] altezza6363:
So what i can i do?do i need to reformat my sd card?or flash using pc sync?

izzit flash from sd card is safest?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Well you can try formatting your SD card and then try it again but I would just flash via the computer. Put your phone into the bootloader, connect it to your computer (it should show USB at the bottom of the bootloader screen) and then just run the RUU and flash it.

[SIZE=+1]UPDATE: New version will work on SPL 1.54 or above ROMS!!!!

[/SIZE]

Shouldn't this read "New version, will only work on SPL 1.54 or above." as I don't think it works on 1.14 ROMs... made mine go psychedelic!

But most of all... Thanks for this new version of HSPL.:D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Psygnosis84:
Hey guys i have a small question about HSPL.

I currently have 1.18 ROM but i want to flash to Dutty XT 3.0, and since this is a 1.56 ROM, can i use the older version of HSPL then flash his rom or do i have to flash my phone to 1.56 then HSPL then his ROM?

I've read the tutorials but this part is confusing me.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Thanks so much OliNex for this new HSPL release, awesome work!!! :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
If you use the older HSPL and flash Dutty's 3.0 you will have massive green screen and distortion issues. You must use the new HSPL with any 1.56-based roms.

So, flash HSPL 1.56 and then flash Dutty's 3.0.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Psygnosis84:
Cheers for that, I thought i had to upgrade my rom to the official 1.56 then HSPL then to Dutty.

thanks for the clear up!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
While you don't have to flash the official HTC rom first, I would. It will upgrade your radio and everything else which Dutty's rom is compatible with. Just my opinion, as well as recommended by Dutty.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Invisible Sense:
Hi guys,

Any fix for this?

Cannot flash HSPL...

Hello.

This is my 1st time to flash mobile.

I've downloaded HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe and HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe. Run each of them will tell me that the current version is 1.14.479.3. The speed of update is very fast. Progress bar on my PC pause at 0% for a short while -- usb connecting -- and fly to 100% directly, the same as mobile displayed. Software told me that job is finished and my mobile restarted automatically.

But, nothing changed. If I run that program again, the current version is still 1.14.479.3.

Plz tell me how to flash it. Thanks.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
First of all you need to run HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe. Have you tried flashing this with your phone being in the bootloader before you start HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmonex:
if he has stock SPL currently, he MUST NOT put it in bootloader before running HSPL EXE
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmonex:
what do you mean? it doesn't see BLACIMG.NBH on a FAT32 formatted card? please tell me more details, thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] scegg:
It works. Thank you. The version is 156 now.

One problem is: I'm still using the original system. Every time I start my system, the color displaying is wrong. I need to press twice power button to hide and show the screen again to make it correct...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mohalimohali:
Help needed

Hi,

The first thing I did to my device out of the box is HSPL using "HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex" file in ur post. everything went smooth but after reboot the screen has bad colors (like 16 color mode). I tried hard reset with no luck.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
To both of you...

It sounds like you have the incompatible rom/SPL issue. What rom are you running at the moment? Is it a rom based on the new HTC 1.56+ roms? If not you need to flash a newer rom to resolve that since you are now running the new SPL.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmonex:
well, only need to upgrade SPL if you want to upgrade the ROM.... I will add that in first post.

edit: added :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] the_ape:
I've had a quick flick through the thread and can't see anyone else with this issue, but when I install either HSPL 1.5x or the original HTC 1.5x SPL my screen becomes strangly unresponsive, and difficult to calibrate, anyone else seen it? the most annoying part is it keeps clicking the start menu when touching areas in the middle left of the screen? Very strange, I've gone back to a 1.1x Rom and the 1.14 HSPL and all is fine?

Anyone else seen this?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
When you have this issue are you running HSPL 1.56 / HTC SPL 1.54 on a 1.56-based rom as well?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] the_ape:
I've tried both the HSPL 1.56 and the HTC 1.54 one, on a few 1.56 roms (Dutty 3.0/3.1 and Miri 8.2/9.0) they all cause the exact same issues, I've also used the stock HTC Rom with both the HTC SPL and the HSPL.

Screen Calibration difficult

Unresponsive screen (noticeable easiest on the keyboard)

Left Middle of the screen presses the start menu (Left Top) - However if you tap-hold the same spot the popup menu selects the object underneath the finger (visible if you use Explorer etc)

Device Lags bad at times, seems to be random when it does this though.

All of these issues happen on the Stock Rom with nothing extra installed as well. Thought originally that it was perhaps one of the apps (TouchResponce I was thinking) not liking the new screen/touch drivers. But does not seem to be the problem as with nothing installed all the Roms tried exibit the same issue.

I've rolled back to HSPL 1.14 and Dutty 2.5 and all is well, screen works perfectly and there is no 'hangs' so definitely either the SPL or the 1.56 Rom Drivers somewhere along the line.

The device is a UK BLAC100 Not sure where the Revision number on the device is though... had a look under the battery and can't see owt obvious, only thing I could think of is there is a few different revisions of the device
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Psygnosis84:
Hey man, i was reading the new Dutty XT 3.2 and it contains the 1.14 radio and all that kind of stuff, if i go from 1.18 to that, won't that update everything to the newest anyways?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] the_ape:
Like I said I've tried it with the HTC official updated ROM, and that exhibits the same issues, but going back to the 1.14 HSPL and a Matching ROM works great. It's really wierd.

When I get a chance I'll try updating the Wife's HD as well, see if her's exhibits the same problems, but she is not particularly enthused on me 'breaking' her's.

Oh Well.. ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Yes. With His 3.1 and 3.2 release the radio is included. Just make sure your SPL is the correct version before you flash it.

That's really weird. I have'nt seen that issue with anyone else before. I am running two different versions of the HD and don't have any issues. I know of 3 different versions and they are all compatible... I just don't know what to say :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] the_ape:
I know it's odd... Might open a case with HTC and see what they say seems as there SPL does it as well ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] turcomora:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kuyichi:
Can I flash the newest HSPL 1.56 trough my storage card method?

I do not trust my computer anymore.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
If you did not flash a newer rom (one based on the HTC 1.56 rom or above) this is why. The new SPL (or HSPL) is not compatible with the older roms, and vice versa. It has nothing to do with it being a Telstra device.

Yes, you can.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] the_ape:
For those experiencing issues like Mine (see above) there is no 'Public' Fix so HTC says

You can send it in for an Upgrade though and they will fix it. Odd but hey!

I can do nothing now!!

plz help me!

_________________
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
This is why I never flash from the SD card. Since you can still put your phone into the bootloader, do so. Then, flash HSPL and/or a rom through RUU via your computer. This should take care of it for you.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kuyichi:
I tried but the screen stuck on 0%... what i have to do now?

This is what it saying in my bootloader:

BLAC100 32M

SPL-1.54.0000

Uprgrade Rom code error

Please try again.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
That's strange. I actually had that problem once too and had to use USPL to flash HSPL. Have you tried that? Are you familiar with USPL?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kuyichi:
No I am not familiar with that, can you give me a small explanation?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Have you read the thread on USPL?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kuyichi:
Uhm if I am right..

I download Version 2.5 USPL. I start the blac_uspl.exe, if everything goes right then i will start HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.zip with the file	RUU_Signed_Blackstone_stockSPL154.zip?

Is this correct?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Place your phone into the booloader and connect it to your computer. Unzip USPL and run BLAC_USPL.exe. If it works properly your phone should reboot and be back in the bootloader, showing SPL 1.15.USPL. Once you see this, then run the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe. :D

Hallo, please help! I have used 'HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex' and the screen is really damaged. it shows diffrent colors.:confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] songcry88:
screen fixed

I used Unsigned_HardSPL_for_Blackstone_OliNex and it solved the problem.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
This is because you updated your SPL to the new HSPL which is not compatible with the older roms. If you run the new HSPL you need to flash a rom that is based on the HTC 1.56 rom or higher. Please read before flashing blindy on a $1000 device!!!:eek:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aseer essamt:
Please help

I used Unsigned_HardSPL_for_Blackstone_OliNex put the screen looks funny when booting and the device runs so heavy. The ROM I use is DUTTY v3.0

please what can I do. Yeah now I can't sync the device to the PC.

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
This is because you are running an incompatible SPL version. You are using the old HSPL with a new 1.56+ based rom. You cannot do this. You have to flash the new HSPL (HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex) and you won't have this problem.

C'mon people... read before you flash.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] alfa:
question.

for now i am using the old hspl whit Davideuck rom..

so can i use "HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.zip" and flach to miri 10.0 rom?..

or schould i reflach first to the original rom and spl?

thanks in advance
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Is Miri's 10.0 compatible with the new SPL (HTC v 1.54.000 / HSPL 1.56.oliNex)? If it is, all you need to do is flash the new HSPL and then flash the rom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lucas0511:
Thanks guys - a winning combination, HardSPL by OlixNex, and thread moderation by cRaCKwHoRe :-). Both of you involved gave me confidence to flash SPL.

What an easy upgrade that was, flashed 1.56 HardSPL over 1.14 (after installer triggered auto-install of Qualcomm driver into Win 7 RC1), and now installing my first 1.56 ROM.

After all the posts reporting problems in various threads I would not have thought this would be so easy!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
LOL well thanks! And.. it is quite easy if you know what you're doing and read up on the process before you flash blindly!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bomangani:
quick question - I currently have the following on my Touch HD:

ROM version - Duttys HD v2.6 Extreme WWE

ROM date - 01/04/09

Radio version - 1.09.25.14

Protocol version - 52.49a.25.26H

ExtROM version - www.duttythroy.net

Bootloader I have the following:

BLAC100 32M

SPL-1.56.01iNex

MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6

Seems I cannot do any upgrades including radio or other ROM versions - from this version, how do I proceed to say Duttys 3.3 and get the newer radio?

Just a small nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thanks

Brettman
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
When you say "I cannot do any upgrades including radio or other ROM versions" what exactly do you mean? Since you have HSPL v 1.56 already present on your device you should be able to flash right to Dutty's 3.3. Have you tried flashing said rom? If so, do you run into any issues or get any errors?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bomangani:
Here is the message I get when making the attempt:

ERROR [240]:FILE OPEN

the Update Utility can not open the requested file. please check your Update Utility

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Sounds like something has gotten ahold of the file before the RUU can. Do you have an antivirus program running? If so, try disabling it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] v6ttgnx:
When I try to run the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.zip, it keeps me at 1.14 and does not change to 1.56... anyone know how to change it to the 1.56. do I run the	Unsigned_HardSPL_for_Blackstone_OliNex.zip?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
No. You want to run the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex to flash to HSPL 1.5. When you run the RUU from HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.zip does it go through the entire flashing process to 100%?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] furrypotato:
In case anyone else gets the same problem as I did....

Using a Touch HD. Trying to flash to 1.56 HSPL. Windows 7 RC1.

I would get to the Tricolor screen ok, but it would not then detect USB and the update app would timeout.

Simple fix-

"also you can try unticking advanced network functionality in start menu / settings / connections / usbtopc applet. "

Did that, then windows installed new drivers. Once I got to the tricolour screen, Windows downloaded and installed new drivers again (HTC USB Sync) and almost straight away the update worked and I got the progress bar etc

Thnks guys.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] v6ttgnx:
Yes, I ran the wrapper and my HSPL on the bootloader still showed 1.14... :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Maglen:
Silly question - but i just can't avoid it...

Crackwhore, I've read all the apropriate sections, and am left with the following dilema:

i don't know my original SPL - bought it in the US, and HSPL it 1.14oli...

now using dutty's 2.6 (been with him since the 1.7 i think)

it comes down to this:

all i need to do is hspl 1.56oli and than flash new 3.4 dutty's right?

too many people talking about briking thier phones - just getting me worried.

again - sorry for asking something that is so simple...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sharkshark:
nice post!

SPL 1.59 is comming out! HSPL can work on new SPL or not?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Yes just upgrade your SPL to HSPL 1.56.oliNex and then flash Dutty's new rom. :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gfreek:
To add to cRaCKwHoRe reply yes you can do the above method and after flash the Bootloader will have the folllowing displayed:

BLAC100 32M

SPL-1.56.01iNex

MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6

However you may get an error message something like "The rom update process was unsucessfull please re-try" or something similar!! If you do get this then:

DO NOT PANIC! HardSPL was Flashed Sucessfully you now just need to flash a 1.56 compatible ROM thats' it! e.g. HTC Stock http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Ship_exe or Dutty's v3.3 or miri's v10 etc....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gfreek:
If you mean ROM 1.59 then yes you can, once you've flashed HardSPL 1.56 Olinex!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmonex:
only flashes if you have hspl 1.14 already

won't flash over stock 1.14 spl - must use full hspl wrapper via USB.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmonex:
does 1.56 spl work ok with 1.56 roms but not with 1.57? is this what you mean?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmonex:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmonex:
can you experience any difference between 1.56 and 1.59 in practice?

only put stock spl on it if you want to return it for warranty. NO OTHER REASON EVER.

if you need help unbricking that device you can PM me
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmonex:
in mtty: set 16 0 command (have a search on how to do it) or just flash a CID matching rom or use USPL to flash a non CID matching rom

then it will not be stuck anymore :)

Flash original Rom with latest HSPL?

Sorry, still bit of a n00b...

just checking; I want the original HTC ROM 1.56 version and have the latest HSPL (it says SPL-1.56.OlinNex in the bootloader).

Can I now just run the 'RUU_BlackStone_HTC_NLD_1.56.404.1_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship'-file to flash to that ROM or do I need the original SPL first?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Yes, since you have the new HSPL already on your phone all you have to do is flash the rom. :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] :
Can one use SD card to flash custom ROM after this SPL?

I placed blacimg.nbh in root directory. Inserted SD after a USB display on the HD. But it doesn't seem to do anything? I even formatted the SD.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
The SD card has to be present in the device before entering the bootloader.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] :
Even tried that.. Nothing seems to happen. It's the SD which came with HD. :confused:

Edit: Finally I flashed via USB.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Not all SD cards work by the way. The 8 GB that came with my HD will not flash either. There's many threads about this. At least you got it sorted via USB ;)
