Hello,

newbie member here.

First of all, thanx for this tutorial.

Now, as you can guess, I'm having some troubles with hardspl my Fuze:

here's a couple of questions:

1. my first question is related to:

=> pardon my ignorance, but what are the signs of the "device entering SSPL automatically" ? (I don't know what SSPL is...)

2. second question:

I experienced something similar to what one of the members had reported earlier in this thread:

=> now, I can get the device back on by hard resetting (even soft resetting seems sufficient), but my next attempt to hardspl still fails the same way.

One difference I have noticed is that now *I no longer see the prompt on the device*. Screens just goes dark and then the above mentioned failure...

Any idea or suggestions? Are there some files I should delete after the 1st failed attempt?

Thanks for you help!

Route 66

Hello,

Can someone help please with simple instructions ?

I have installed and have Route 66 Mobile 8 working on my HTC Touch Pro but have to go into Total Commander to activate the program which is a pain !

I want to know how to create a icon or short cut so that I can access it easily from the HOME Screen is this possible and if so how do i do it please ?

Many Thanks

SPTV
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Captain_Throwback:
If you have Total Commander, it's easy!

Navigate to the Program in TC.

From the "File" menu, choose the ">>>>>" to go to the sub-menu.

Choose "Create Shortcut".

In the box that pops up, you can either type "\Windows\Start Menu" or "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs" (or any other subfolder there), OR you can press the "Tree" button, and navigate to where you want the shortcut.

Now I'm doing that from memory, so it may not be completely accurate, but it should definitely be close enough to give you an idea.

after i flashed and The Installation completed i could do it no problem ( of course like am doing restore).....

so i was wondering if anyone had this issue or Can help me i will appreciate it. thanks.

Yesterday I got MDA Vario IV (Raphael/Touch Pro in HTC terminology) with my new contract with T-Mobile.

So, I will replace my Diamond with MDA. :)

Now, I have some experience with flashing Diamond's ROM. But this is the first time I have branded mobile device, can I, using procedures explain in this thread, put Hard-SPL to MDA and flash it with a new ROM?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] danaketh:
Hi,

I finally found the courage to flash my Raphael. However, I'm unable to do so, because the phone just don't cooperate.

1) When I run RUU and get to the step where it says which image version I have, everything is fine, RUU shows version, I press Update and continue. When the progress bar pops up, it does nothing and after few second it ends and show information, that RUU was unable to connect with device. Display won't go black as it should.

2) I tried copying SSPLManual.exe on device and run it manually. In this case, display goes back but then ActiveSync kick out that phone has disconnected and RUU won't find an image version.

Also there was a strange pop up in Windows :) When I started SSPLManual.exe, Windows pooped a small pop-up, telling that CDMA device was found, which is strange, because I should have GSM - have SIM slot and using SIM card to call/SMS etc :)

So I'm pretty sure that somebody just decided I'm not the person who should flash his phone :) But maybe somebody here will know where the problem can be.

Thanks for any advice.

UPDATE #1: I'm now installing official ROM which has been released and everything goes fine so I'll see after that :)

UPDATE #2: Ok, no luck at all. Same problems as before. Strange :/

OK need major instruction

Never mind its the ROM i'm confused about.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] geo1:
ok so ive searched the forums and i cant seem to find an answer, so ill post it here even at the risk of getting told off.

Flashed my TP today for the first time, followed instructions, however after the flash and loading of the ROM the stylus config screen never came up, just sat at the black "touch pro" screen. I though maybe this is the point to hard reset, which worked, and just brought me back to the same screen.

Any one got any help?

edit: cant get any sort of activsync connection happening either
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Captain_Throwback:
My first question for you is going to be: what carrier are you on, i.e. do you have a CDMA or GSM Touch Pro? It kind of sounds like you're on CDMA and flashed a GSM ROM on your device.

Hello, im new to XDA, and this is my first flash, I was hoping this would go smoothly however i cant even seem to get started... Rather than looking through 102 pages to see if my problem has been addressed (i looked through a good 15+) i will simply ask here...

I'm trying to run HardSPL through ActiveSync and it is coming up with error 202 saying my device is not connected, i've disabled antivirus and tried different usb ports, to no avail. I have a Fuze... I really would like to upgrade my phone but i seem to keep running into brick walls here. Thx in advance...

Successful

Thank you sooo much "mskip". I have successfully flashed my very first ROM and Radio for my brand new AT&T Fuze, thanks to you. I just received my phone last week and tried out the updated Rom from HTC's website. It was ok but I can tell the TF3D was still a lil laggy, not to mention all the "bloatware" that AT&T installs on the phone. So I literally spent 2 days reviewing, reading, and researching this particular topic and decided to flash "Louzeberry's" ROM (WM 6.1 with blackberry icons). This stuff is siCk!!!! I cannot thank you enough for this posting this thread.

I just want to give you guys MUCH PROPS and to all the XDA Developers/chefs that "cook" and create all these wonderful tweaks/ROMs to keep up the good work. You are all geniuses in my book and just want to say hello to the community. :)

I am now a proud owner of a custom "Flashed" Fuze and cant wait to show off my phone to my friends, especially the ones with an iPhone :eek:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] illusionz27:
This is EXACTLY the same thing that happened to me. After disconnecting and trying different USB ports, resetting, etc; I re-read the very 1st post about something where for "people having problems connecting to SSPL automatically". Basically what I did was:

Copy the SSPLManual.exe directly to the device, and run it from there. You will now get a black screen on your phone, which you then run the RUU (RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3) from your PC and follow the on screen prompts.

i now it sounds stupid i was wondering does the flash instructions work for the htc pro touch 2 aswell?

Hi all, I seem to have a prob with my first ROM flash.. :S

Normally a m8 does it for me, but i thought what the heck..! Ima do it myself now...

I have a similar problem that Seanny had... All was going well but after I reboot, just like Seanny, screen hangs on (and I quote):

Touch pro

R 1.11.25.01

G 52.58.25.30U

D 5.11.502.2

Cant do nothing, and dunno what to do... Should I insert my SIM/MicroSD? If I hard reset again, it starts good, but freezes again on same screen...

plz help me! =D

thnx in advance :)

***Edit: All went well till I got to the screen I mentioned***
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
Can you get into the bootloader screen? (see the first post on nhoe to enter bootloader). If you can then read the 2nd line which says SPL and let me know what it is. Also what Rom did you try to install and by which method?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] fuzion420:
To begin, great instructions, spells everything out clearly and provides links to resources :) Easy to follow.

I'm new to this so please bear with me on this problem. I downloaded and ran RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3.exe while my ATT HTC Fuze was connected to Activ-Sync. The normal setup goes through and it successfully verifies that my current image version is 5.11.502.2 (updated ATT rom)... The upgrade shows 1.90.Raphael, which I am assuming that everything is correct.

I hit the Next button and go to the Updating ROM image and it's stuck on 0% ... and eventually gives me a "ERROR [202]: CONNECTION" message :(

So then I take out the battery, start it up, put the SSPLManual.exe file into the phone. From here it get's kinda fuzzy, I've tried the following:

Attempt 1:

Execute SSPLManual from my phone>Phone's screen goes black> I execute HardSPL> RUU fails to verify my phone and I am dropped from Activ Sync

Attempt 2:

Execute HardSPL> Let RUU detect and verify my phone> Execute SSPLManual> Phone's screen goes black> Hit Next to initiate update> Receive Error Connection message

I'm out of ideas... i've been looking through the posts and most people fix it after they run SSPLManual, but it doesn't seem to work for me.

Can some please help me?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Cokedog187:
HI and thnx for the reply, I kinda fixed the problem... I just put an older version on my Sd card and went through the Flashing again...

This time it went a-ok... But, I tried installing version 23007 again, and I get the same problem :S

SPL = 1.90 olinex ---> ?

I will update that if possible, maybe it helps...

And again, thnx for the help so far :)

***EDIT: I just installed Shep's 23001, so far so good... but still, cant seem to install newest one***
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] SterlingInd:
Thank you so much for this! I have been lurking these forums for a long time (since the 8525 first came out) but only registered when the fuze was released.

I have been extremely skeptical about this stuff as I didnt not want a 300+ dollar door stop, but as luck would have it, I came across another fuze for cheap and BAM now I have one stock and one I can play with.

My first ROM was Da_G 23008 6.5 series and I loved it. I was remarkably stable for an unfinished product. However, I have always read good things about NATF's ROMs so I flashed back to 6.1 and WOW what a difference from the stock ATT ROM. I loved it.

So, in short, if not for this guide I would have been too afraid to try. THANK YOU!

Next step? Someone should create a Kitchen for Dummies thread because I cannot wrap my mind around that. Yikes.

need help flashing radio

I am not new to flashing ROM's, as I now have NRG ROM 3.0 build 20090722. I have searched and am not 100% clear how to flash the radio. the instruction says:

Flashing Via ActiveSync

Sync your phone with the PC, Run the Raphael_RUU.exe from the Radio's Folder and follow the instructions.

do I copy the RUU & NBH files to somewhere on the phone, and run RUU from TC?? can someone please clarify this.

my phone is unlocked via Olinex hardspl. I want to flash either 1) 1.14.25.05 OR 2) 1.14.25.35

thank you.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
If you flash via active sync then you dont copy anything to your phone. As stated in the instructions just sync your phone and pc and then run the ruu from the same directory as your radios nbh file is in.

If you want to flash it via microSD Card then copy the nbh to the root of the storage card and then enter bootloader mode.

I downloaded the HardSPL package from Rapidshare and when I tried running it my virus scanner blocked it with this message:

Works fine with Active Sync though.

EDIT: Sorry, false alarm, a third try at a hard reset got it back. But does anyone know why it said it wasn't connected when activesync said it was? Thanks.

Original post:

So I just started doing this process, it came up to the loading screen, didn't progress after about a minute, then said it couldn't make the connection (via activesync usb) even though active sync said it was connected and synced. So I touched the usb cable, and the computer made the "connected" sound and the phone brought up the new program screen and asked if I wanted to proceed, I hit yes, and the phone shut off. Now it won't turn on. Did I just toast my new phone? Thanks.

can't get to bootloader

Hello - search all the wikis and searched the forum... I can not seem to get my HTC Fuze into a bootloader screen. Flashed the hardspl 1.9 - did not work on my 64 bit system but worked on one of my 32 bits. Screen went black, progress bar, success, restarted, etc. Then I went to go the bootloader screen and did not realize I had to look very quickly or I would miss it. I believe I saw 3 color bars at the bottom of a black screen, then it turned on as usual. Now, I am unable to get to a bootloader screen to check the new 1.9. Each time I press the volume down button, keep it pressed, push the reset button next to the usb port with the stylus, wait for the black, let go of the reset button, the screen always goes directly to AT&T world phone and then proceeds to start as usual.

Can you help me get to the bootloader so I can check the new hardspl and then flash my new rom? Thanks SO much for any help.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] vtmorp:
More ways than 1 to skin....

Well - finally! very strange... decided, since I could not verify the hardspl, I would go with the new HTC Rom (sigh). Worked beautifully - even on my 64 bit Vista. Skipped teh AT&T bloatware. Then, since it worked, somehow it went into the bootload screen prior to the flash all on its own and I noticed the 1.9 Ol hardspl. So, after flashing the HTC Rom, I flased my new and wonderful Aurora EnergyRom! YAY!

Fuze on T-mobile

Been combing threw these Roms for a few days now, and don't know which one to go with.

Any Roms optimized for T-mobile network? any recommendations from anyone? which one has best performance? which one is the most well rounded?

Thanks, I came from G1, Eten m800, and Zinc atom, and there weren't this many choices for roms and its got me a little confused
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
Theres no definitive answer as to which Rom is best so you arent going to get an easy answer. All the Roms i nthe Development section are stable and fast, none of them are optimised for one kind of network as they are meant for anyone to use. EnergyRom seems to be very popular so you could start with that one and see how you like it. Failing that just try a couple out and see which one suits your needs and feels right for you. The couple of days you spent trying to decide which one to go for could have been used to test them all out to find your perfect Rom lol ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Dalamak:
Thanks I'm trying energy rom, now, this device is actually very easy to flash, compared to the problems with other devices I've had in the past, maybe its windows 7, maybes its the newer device, maybe its the flasher software, what ever reason, now that I've poped my cherry on the fuze with this first rom, I will take your advice, and just try them all.

Hard reset between flashing rom and radio

What is the procedure between flashing the rom and the radio. The intructions are not entirely clear. After the ROM is flashed, do I hard reset and then flash the radio? Or do I flash the rom, then the radio, then hard reset?

I did search before asking this question.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
Follow the procedure as stated in the guide.

i.e. Flash Rom, then Hard Reset and set your device up, then Flash Radio. Hard resetting is only required after flashing a rom to make sure any settings from your old rom arent carried across which might cause problems. Hard restting after flashing a Radio isnt required. Hope that answers your question.

Did you flash HArdSPL before you flashed the English Rom? If you arent sure then go into your bootloader screen and check. What does it say in the screen that its hanging on?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] PocketFullOfFun:
Quick quest refering to this:

*ONCE YOU HAVE FLASHED A HARDSPL ITS PERMANENT. YOU DONT NEED TO DO IT AGAIN WHEN FLASHING NEW ROMS OR RADIOS*

ok, in the past. maybe 5 months ago, i flashed the hardspl and a romeos Rom onto my fuze. worked great. now i want to try a different Rom. the Energy Rom; do i have to flash the hardspl again or just flash the rom and it should take out the romeos Rom and put in energy rom? I just wanted to verify with people because this is my phone and i dont want it to be a brick.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
I think you already answered your question by posting that statement from the guide :)

If you enter the Bootloader screen to verify that you have HardSPL on your phone then you do not need to reflash it. Simply follow the guide to flash the Energy Rom and thats it, Job Done :D

Poblem with reverting to original stocks

Hi guys. For quite few years I was always able to search and find the solution to my issues, but this time I am really stack with the problem:

Some time ago after charging my Raphael was not powering up at all. I bought new battery and it occurred that probably power charging unit is damaged, because it newer completed charging, the device was always very hot and discharged in few minutes even when turned off (until completely drained out). What is more the USB connections works only for charging (probably damaged and not data connection is possible).

Before returning the device for guarantee servicing I wanted to downgrade all the roms to the original ones. As advised I started with Radio and OS stocks, but after bootloader update (from SD card) I got only "upgrading ROM code error" and the device tries to load some ROM, but putting any on SD card doesn't work anymore.

Any suggestions how to cope with this situation?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_maniaC:
Hey there,

I didn't read through all 106 pages (so please don't bite my head off).

Very nice turorial! :)

I was just wondering one more thing....

November '08 i got my HTC Touch Pro / Raphael and started flashing different ROMs probably by the end of that month.

My HARDSPL also dates back to that time...

Is it mandatory to even bother and look for a new version of HardSPL or is this simple non excistant?

There is only 1 version of HardSPL for the Raphael (1.90.OliNex) so no need to look for a new version.

I'm the new one here, so at first, I would like to say Hello everybody.

I have MDA Vario 4 first time. This is the phone with windows Mobile and I have not enought knowledge with flashing this phone as this one, so I have some questions.

At first Sorry for my english.

1. I flashed HardSPL for the Raphael (1.90.OliNex), and when I Turn on the phone in boot menu, the 3-colour start and the text>

RAPH300

SPL-1.90.Olinex

MicroP-Herm (LED) v13

MicroP-Herm (KEY) v5

PSOC-Herm Stage_CVT v0x35

and at the end is text Serial. And my Question is: Why I can't Turn Off the phone, I have to remove battery. Is it Ok ??

2. This is from this forum>HARD RESET

(hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER (center) Buttons, press the RESET button with the stylus tip, then release the RESET button but continue to hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons until the reset screen appears)

My question is : Where can I press the reset botton with stylus ?? I can't see that. If you can, give me some picture of this procedure. Thanks

3.I have MDA Vario 4 from Slovak T-Mobile, but I would like to use original HTC SW. Whitch flash rom should I have to use to flash it ??

Thank you for answers.
