I think that's my problem. How long do you suppose to press reset? I tried pressing reset with my stylus but it doesn't feel like i'm clicking anything. I'm thinking that paper clip might do a better job but i'm afraid of sticking it in there right now.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
you only need to press reset for about 3 seconds. If it doesnt go into bootloader in that time then maybe you arent pressing it in fully but i wudnt advise using a paper clip thats what the stylus was designed for lol.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] benrleroy:
So I followed everything perfectly until flashing the rom. I flashed the rom, the phone booted up fine and when it asked me to configure the stylus I forgot I was supposed to hard reset. Instead I configured the stylus and, after this, the phone configured itself by installing something and then restarted. At this point it asked for my sim so I turned the phone off, took the battery out and threw in the sim. Now nothing happens at all. No bootloader....nothing. Phone does not power on. I guess I bricked the phone so unless someone has a fix I'm thinking I'll take it into AT&T if no one knows how to fix the phone and tell them it died. Since I just bought the phone a few days ago, I'm hoping for a replacement. Will this fly, you think?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] vooood:
just flashed this on my phone.. let's see if it is a miracle perhaps..
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
The miracle WILL happen you just have to believe LOL :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
Thats really wierd. Try taking the Sim Card and Storage Card out and doing a Hard Reset on the phone with the charging cable plugged in:

Hard Reset [FONT=&quot](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)

If that doesnt work and you cant get into the BootLoader then send a message to oli or cmonex and see if they can help. If you send it back and they find you have flashed a custom rom it will invalidate your warranty and wont get a new phone. And probably get a bill for looking at the old one because phone companys are just that nice lol.

flashing radios

So when I download a new radio- It is called ruu_signed.nbh in one case or RALPHIMG.nbh in another case. I have downloaded the Custom RUU v1.2. It was said that if I used this it would not hard reset the device. What I don't understand is how to arrange the files. So here's an example:

For a new radio install do I place the downloaded radio file (the .nbh) in a folder with the custom ruu application file? When do you need the wrapper?

Do I need Net Framework 3.5 to flash radios?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
Yep just place the .nbh file and the customruu.exe in the same folder and run the ruu to start flashing. cmonex's wrapper is a patched version of the ruu and can be used if the customruu doesnt work. It doesnt matter what the nbh file is called as long as its in the same folder as the ruu but if u want to flash it from microSD Card thats when it needs to be named raphimg.nbh and placed in the root of the storage card. Just make sure that if ur flashing a non raphael radio that your device is unlocked. When you flash a new radio it wont hard reset your phone so u wont lose anything.

Im not sure if you need 3.5 framework to run the ruu. I dont think its needed but you will soon find out.

I appreciate your detailed response- I kinda thought thats how iw went but it isn't really selled out that well on the wiki. Yes- I got my security unlocker yesterday. Thanks

Noob - Flashing my shiny new Touch Pro!

I've got a new UK Vodaphone Touch Pro, and I'd like to flash the RSW and also the Romeo Roms on to have a look at them both.

I will load the HardSPL first. Then flash the RSW ROM using the MicroSD card method.

Aftwerwards when I want to flash the Romeo Rom, is it just a case of wiping my MicroSD card, loading the Romeo ROM on it, and then following the instructions to reset it? Is it that simple to reflash a new ROM?

Also do either RSW or Romeo ROMs cause any odd effects when used on a UK phone? For example will it have a different keyboard layout? If so how could I change these?

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] JoseftheBest:
I get this error after opening the RaphealHardSPL:

To run this application, you first must install one of the following versions of the .NET Framework:

v.2.0.50727

Contact your application publisher for instructions about obtaining the appropriate version of the .NET Framework.

Whats wrong?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
It's that simple ;)

If you have keyboard problems then you'll have flashed a ROM based on the Fuze ROM's, don't worry, there are plenty of fixes :)

Do you have the .net framework installed?

and still, I have a question :

in the tutorial theres one point -

*DO NOT let the Screensaver activate*

so, I should not let the screensaver activate on my pc or on my TouchPro? :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
The screensaver on the pc lol since the phone goes into the bootloader whilst flashing u dont have to worry about that.

Try NATF v4.1 standard hes a very well respected chef and it should suit all your needs.

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] neuen:
I hoped I wouldn't need to ask this...

I'm about to flash the eliteRC3 rom and I have a couple of questions: when it says "run the Raphael_Ruu.exe from the Roms Folder", what exactly does that mean. Once I unrar the download, I get three files: ChangLog.txt, ruu_signed.nbh and RaphaelWrapper.exe. Assume I'm all synced up, do I just run the RaphaelWrapper.exe file from my PC?

Please no flames. I've spent hours reading hundreds of pages and it's all kinda swimming together.

Thx
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rareness4:
Yes run the RaphaelWrapper.exe and follow the directions from there
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
The RaphaelWrapper is just a patched version of the RUU that some chefs use instead. Just run that file and continue with the guide as normal.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] JZ SmartMort:
Thanks for an awesome piece of work! This thread is where I started once I got my Fuze about one month ago and I keep coming back for refreshers.

I believe I finally understand all of the terminology. I wanted to ask for some clarification on the following:

On your first post, search for "Security Unlocked". I believe that this means CID/SIM unlock. Can you please clarify where in the two sections (SPL or CID) the term belongs?

I can't find the word "SuperCID" on the first post, but I think it also means CID/SIM unlock. Another possible clarification on the first post.

A tip for people wanting to unlock their CID/SIM security: I called AT&T and said that I'm going overseas where my company provides me with cell service/SIM chip and I need to be able to use it. They gave me the unlock code in minutes. I stuck my buddy's T-Mobile SIM into my AT&T Fuze, turned it on, it asked for the code, done deal.

All the best!

JZ
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
The three stages of unlock are:

SIM: Allows you to use SIM's from another carrier. Can be done using codes or unlocker programs on xda-devs.

Security: Allows you to flash radios from another device (i.e. Raphael) - It does other stuff, but this is all the casual user will use it for :)

CID: CID unlocking is an old concept, nowadays you flash Hard SPL instead. This lets you flash any ROM, Splash or Radio (depending on sec unlock) to your device. N.B. the CID is the carrier ID (e.g. HTC__001). The stock SPL's only let you flash ROM's that match the CID in the ROM image with the CID on your device.

Also, SuperCID is an even older concept no longer valid on newer devices.

Thanks

question about rom types

I want to install the latest Proven rom , but I am unsure which one I should use ?

PROven ROM 1.14a WWE CVSD

PROven ROM 1.14a WWE MSVC

PROven ROM 1.14a PLK CVSD

I have Xda 02 serra , can some explain what the letters after the rom version mean ?

Cheers

Andy
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
WWE = World Wide English,

PLK = Some other language (not sure, sorry :o)

CVSD = Cyberon Voice Speed Dial

MSVC = Microsoft Voice Command

Use either WWE ROM. CVSD and MSVC are just two different voice dialers, use your preferred one (if you have one).

Before I start...

Hi,

Thanks for the guide... Before I start a few questions... I think it would be wise to make a back up of my current ROM... how to do that?

I have (paid) software such as Route66 which needs a Device ID from my mobile in order to run. Will flashing affect any IDs such as that, or the IMEI? If so, how to fix/prevent these ID numbers to change?

Thanks,
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
Theres really no need to backup your current Rom since you can download the latest Stock Roms *HERE* If you go into your Device Info and write down your current Rom and Radio Information then match it to one in the link, if you ever need to go back for warranty purposes you can do it easily.

Information such as your Owners Name or Device Name might get changed after a flash but if you make a note of your current info it can easily be changed back afterwards. You IMEI number will never be changed by flashing any Rom or Radio so you dont have to worry about that.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
Well, that's not entirly true... ;)

The last two digits of your IMEI can change, those represent the SVN (software version number). It's the first 15 digits will never change.

Hi All. First post here, and am thinking about flashing my phone. My problem is that I have a brand new Raphael / HTC Touch Pro on T-Mobile in the UK, and looking at the Stock ROM pages, my ROM version is not listed (but my Radio version is). Also, T-Mobile in the UK are useless at phone support - they don't even list the Vario IV as a phone on their website as its only available direct through telephone, so probably very little chance for me to get their stock ROM.

How would I go about taking a full backup of this ROM just in case?

ROM Version: 1.69.110.8 WWE

Radio Version: 1.02.25.19
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
You can just dump the ROM; Post #6 of this thread covers the process, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=2577058#post2577058

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] VeenK:
Hi guys,

Great thanks for that info. However.... I am not talking about the Device Name... but the Device "ID"...

This looks like the following:

9934xx27xx089013B

(The xxx-es are just replacements for some other numbers.)

I'm not sure where it comes from, but I needed this for Route66 technical support to allocate some maps specifically to my phone. It originates from my unique phone.... but where??? and will that change and can it be changed back?

And what about the IMEI... will the last two numbers change when flashing with this ROM? Can that be changed back?

Thanks,
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
No Idea what that number is, it's long enough to be an IMEI number. I also don't know how to change it back. Most people only ask for the 1st 15 digits to avoid this problem.

Can please tell me how to prevent the screensaver from activating before proceeding with the process? Thank you.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Farmer Ted:
Do a right click on your desktop. Click on 'properties', then go to the screensaver tab. Scroll to '(none)' on the menu, and click 'Apply.' Then click on the 'power' button, and switch all the menus to 'Never' and click 'Apply.' This should shut all that stuff off.

Don't forget to turn off any anti-virus software. I also disconnected from wireless, just in case windows decided to force an update, or something like that.

What happens if you flash the ROM without taking out the SIM card and microSD?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mrvanx:
Nothing, it flashes fine. ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] da_jojo:
its not an issue with the touch pro , so one can leave them in. I can get into lot of details why and how but i wont. the only issue one can have is when a rom-image is allready on the mini-sd and one tries to update the rom at the same time through RUU. suggest you double-check this.

nice guide!

must-have addition to the forum :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] mskip:
The only reason for taking out Sim and microSD Cards when flashing is to stop anything interfering with the flash that might cause a bad flash.

For the Sim Card it would be once your rom has flashed and the phone reboots, then goes through a self setup procedure to install any custom programs or settings put in by the chef. If you get a call or message during this setup there is a slight chance it might cause a problem so its always better to be safe.

For the microSD Card its just to stop any programs or roms that might be on the Card from installing when you dont want it to.

Neither are essential its just a safe guard to give you the best possible chance of a good clean flash without any problems.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Farmer Ted:
HTC has released a ROM update, and they have some instructions for flashing the new ROM. (Note: it's pretty much the same as what is in post #1, maybe even less detailed.) I just thought I'd post a link, because it might make some noobs feel a little better to look at instructions straight from HTC (you've still got to do the hard-spl to flash the custom ROMs-follow the instructions from post #1!). There's also a pic of the RUU.

no luck flashing hardspl with or without SSPL Manual

I've just gotten a Fuze and wanted to flash it so after doing it many times on the Tilt, I went through the postings and downloaded the various bits but I can't even get the spl to load. Two basic sets of outcomes:

(a) without using SSPL, with activesync reading connected/synched, I run the HardSPL-unsigned (1.90) and it goes past reading info on my PDA and then offers to change it from the 1.95.402.5 version to the 1.90 unlocked. The progress window appears and stays at 0% for about a minute and then errors out with a Error (202): Connection error.

(b) Running the SSPL-Manual from the Windows root with the SD card removed, the screen goes black, the PC makes the USB disconnect tones and then I start the HardSPL. In this case, it never gets past the Verifying the info on your PDA phone - please wait. and finally errors out with an error 260.

I read the various notes about how the phone is recognized as a qualcomm device and an HTC usb device but at no times do I ever see it in Device Manager (either running properly and shown as connected, or in SSPL-manual mode) and when the device is in SSPL-manual mode, the Safely remove hardware applet won't open. It opens once I pull the USB cable, though.

So the phone works but I see no way to get the unlocked hardspl on it so I'm stuck. I see about five other peoiple in this thread made the same noises and all were told to run SSPL-Manual but that only gets me a 260 error instead of a 202.

If it matters, it's an AMD-based ASUS running XP Pro SP3 and the phone was shipped directly from AT&T yesterday and it has the 1.95.502.5/1.02.25.32 stock setup on it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Bob Simons:
problem solved by using an Intel xp machine

I'd spent a lot of time trying to get either the hardspl or the sspl-manual to work on my high-end-at-the-time AMD system but it always failed in the ways mentioned above. I tried an old 815 chipset laptop and it worked instantly without drama. Out of curiosity, how many of the people who couldn't flash were on AMD or nVidia chipsets? My desktop is an nVidia 590 (at least all the USB runs off of it).

The ASUS board never saw the device as a Windows machine, a Qualcomm CDMA device (I know a lot of others said the same thing) but the Intel laptop did.

Hi, I am having problems flashing my ROm to my device. I jsut got my Fuze and it looks like the person who sold it to me already have PROven on it. so that means I don't have to do the steps for the HardSPL right?

But when I try to run the RaphaelWrapper.exe file, I get an error message.

The ROM folder is on my desktop and I run it by double clicking right?

My phone is synced with activesync.... Which options do I need checked in activesync. I'm actually a Mac user but I'm using my work pc to flash my rom.

I don't understand the statement You must sync with PC to Windows Mobile. That basically just means turn on active sync and sync the Fuze to the computer right? Or something else? Does it have to have a certain name?
