[P3400 ROM Development] psychocyst:
if you've successfully run mtty then all that is left is to flash the ruu_signed.nbh file as mentioned in the thread...

if mtty does not run, then make sure you've set the right drivers...

i can't stress how important it is to read through the instructions...

just do a step by step check if you've done everything by the book...most of the time its just something we've looked over...

Hi Guys

I am running Windows 7 64 bit on my pc and started to unlock my gene but when I got to the part where I update the active sync drivers it doesnt work. I was wondering if there isnt a 64 bit driver which I could use. Any help would be much appreciated..!!

Thanks
[P3400 ROM Development] karan999:
Just the read the Step by Step guide properly.that will help you upgrade to the desired Rom.

windows 7 64bit is problematic when it comes to rom upgrading.but it works pretty well once you have the drivers installed.its just a simple procedure.read the Guide and that will help you.Also,before finally upgrading your device,make sure you have properly synced your phone with your computer/laptop.

Windows 7 Sync Driver

Hi

I have read the complete guide and when I need to update the driver it still says there is no compatible driver in the folder. Does someone maybe have a link to a 64 bit win7 driver?

Thanks in advance

Login to the defualt administrator account (Generally disabled, by default) and try again.

"Control Panel > System > Administrative tools > Computer management > Local Users and Groups > Users " once you are there in the right panel you will see an account called as administrator. Select it and right click > properties > uncheck "Account Disalbed".

Logout, now you will see the administrator account in the login screen. Select it and login and try again. You should be fine :)

Windows 7 64bit is one of the most beautiful, robust and stable OS out there in the market today. You just need to know, how to get things done using it ;) (Though I am on 64bit linux these days)

Win 7 64bit sync drivers

Hey Duron ive tried it with the Administrator account but still no luck, still says it cant find any compatible drivers....:confused:
[P3400 ROM Development] karan999:
yes it is indeed.the performance can be seen clearly while running high end games and 3d softwares.will shift back to windows 7 64 bit after ULT V8 is released.upgrades from my side will be coming up but on a less frequent scale after that.maybe if i figure out how to use the kitchen there,i'll continue my work.keeping in mind my high configuration..i really cherished 64bit.

the drivers should be 64bit specific.search on xda itself.if i find anything useful,i'll post the info.

Thnx

Hey bro ,

thnx a lot krazy_about_technology , ur post rocks !!! easily flashed a new rom to my old gene
[P3400 ROM Development] Duron23:
Have you installed Windows Mobile Center in Windows 7 x64 bit ?

and make sure you are installing 64bit version of it.

I have been, flashing my device and cooking rom's for it, all using 64bit windows 7. Don't know why you guys are facing these issues. :confused:
[P3400 ROM Development] karan999:
hi yaar plz make a small tutorial post in your sticky thread for the same.i really wannu switch back to 64bit as im not able to enjoy my comp config when it comes to high graphic games like dirt2 and grid.asking you for the same on gtalk or a phone call will unnecessarily disappoint you.
[P3400 ROM Development] Duron23:
you are free to call me any time. I have already mentioned the things I do on windows 7.

1. Install "Windows Mobile Device Center" ( its like active sync in XP for windows vista/7)

2. Enable default administrator account, login to administrator account. ***

3. Start using kitchen or flash device, simple :D

*** Using default administrator account is not recommended for normal use. Alternate will be to run the app as administrator with compatibility mode ( XP)

Also found Goldcard this method can skip CID check...is it true?

rom upgrade for my gene

I tried upgrading my gene ONBL 1.17.0000 SPL 1.17.0000 using olipro and orefkov. In both these spl gets upto 100% and stops, giving and error message. Is there any other SPL for ONBL 1.17.0000 SPL 1.17.0000, please guide me. I don't know whether my gene is old or new. I guess it has to be the new, looking at the SPL no.

Regards

Hitesh
[P3400 ROM Development] psychocyst:
if the oldgene spl patching method resulted in a bricked device then it is the newgene...you just have to run mtty and then follow the instructions to patch in the newgene's spl...

the guide was pretty clear and simple in the steps you should follow...go through it again properly...

personally i haven't a clue as to what happens if you patch the newgene's spl onto an oldgene but if anyone has done so, do post it up just to satisfy my curiosity...

Step 5: Use the Orefkov Unlocker

------------------------------------

1. Remove the battery, SIM card and SD Card of your phone and press the Power key for 20 seconds to draw out any residual power from the phone.

2. Replace the battery but not the SIM and SD card, and don't start the phone yet. Press and hold the Camera button and then press the Power button or Soft Reset button. Phone will come to boot loader mode (tricolor screen) and SPL 1.10.Olip will be displayed.

3. Connect the USB cable. The text USB will appear on the bottom of the screen.

4. On PC, go to the folder Orefkov in the folder extracted in step 1 and run the Mtty1_42.exe. Press the button "USB" in the window that opened.

5. In the window that opened, type the following command (don't use copy paste please) and press enter:

set 32 1

You'll see a response from phone.

6. Type the following command BUT DON'T PRESS ENTER YET:

ls boot.bin

Note : that is small L and small s in that command, dont mistake it with I.

Now, hold down the Camera button on phone, and press the enter key on computer. After a while, the screen will become White. Continue pressing the Camera button for 10 more seconds.

7. Now release the camera button, close the MTTY program and run ROMUpdateUtility.exe in the same folder, not the one outside it. That one is for RAM flashing that we will use later. Check the boxes in each step and click Next Next and then at last Update. Let it finish the process. Your phone will restart.

8. Now on the splash screen you'll see the info with updated SPL version. The version of SPL will be 1.07.Oref.

Congrats! you have successfully patched your SPL.

i'm confused on how to proceed further as i have identified that mine is new gene, but u have given how to unbrick in case we do it by olipro method and it turns out to be a new gene...

pls help...:confused:

Hey Friend I need your help. I have a problem that my screen is blank after a rom upgrade (RUU). Only greeen and red led is working of two buttons. What to do? Anybody have a solution for it. Please reply me it's urgent. Thanks
[P3400 ROM Development] psychocyst:
if you've ended up with a bricked device after patching the SPL with the Olip patch for OLDGENE and then successfully run mtty and then patched your SPL with the Oref .NBH file (you can confirm this by running the phone in bootloader mode and verifying the SPL version as 1.07.Oref) then the only thing left to do is to download a custom ROM and flash it onto your device...if it doesn't let you boot or flash for any reason post what you've done in as short and descriptive way possible...

most importantly- read through the procedure again and make sure that you've done everything just the way it was supposed to be done

help to get from this error

I did what the guide said , first tried olipro method it didnt worked than tried orefkov . All work fine , but after matty and the white , we have to run rom update utility.

7. Now release the camera button, close the MTTY program and run ROMUpdateUtility.exe in the same folder, not the one outside it. That one is for RAM flashing that we will use later. Check the boxes in each step and click Next Next and then at last Update. Let it finish the process. Your phone will restart.

but i got a error of which i am attaching a image , please help me
[P3400 ROM Development] karan999:
remove the battery.

remove storage card.only sim card should be in.put back the battery.

on your computer open task manager and kill the process wcescomm.exe.

now go back to boot loader mode.connect USB cable and now run the Rom Update Utility.Make sure you are running the correct RUU from the correct folder as mentioned in the guide.
[P3400 ROM Development] naved321:
tried

i have windows 7 and when i opened task manager their is no process like that wcescomm.exe

i am running the correct Ruu , but same error .

btw thanks for ur help any other thing which can help
[P3400 ROM Development] karan999:
first just normally start the phone.Properly sync it to your computer.n then follow the steps again i mentioned.no need to kill any process after that.
[P3400 ROM Development] naved321:
ok thanks , the phone was not actually synced . the process is complete , but now when i reache to step 6

Step 6: Flash the ROM

---------------------------

Now let the phone boot once and then shutdown it. Insert your SIM card, but not the SD card. Go to the PC and copy the ROM file (it must be names RUU_Signed.nbh. Rename it if it has some other name.) into the ROM Update Utility folder that is outside the Orefkov and SPL Patcher folder.

Now press and hold the camera button and start your phone to go into the Boot loader mode once again.

Now Run the RomUpdateUtility.exe and follow her instructions. Please make sure that you are not running RomUpdateUtility inside the Orefkov folder in SPL Updater folder. You must use the one outside, in the RomUpdateUtility folder. Your phone will automatically go into bootloader mode and a progress bar will be displayed on both phone and PC. Once it completes, your phone will restart again and you'll get the phone with the brand new ROM.

A new error is their , its error 238 , FILE READ ERROR

and

But nothing is working.:confused::(

Please help!:eek::(

:)
[P3400 ROM Development] psychocyst:
the only reason you'd have to use the mtty process is to unbrick the phone after realizing its a NEW gene...

have your tried the olipro SPL unlocking patch as instructed in the previous steps??

assuming you have...make sure you've replaced the drivers as mentioned in the step by step procedure...the new drivers should get your gene up and running in no time...

what i don't get is...how can you say that your phone is the new gene??

have you run any check to know this beforehand??
[P3400 ROM Development] vineet_funky:
yes sir have already done splchk....and its saying that its a new gene...
[P3400 ROM Development] akshay2000:
Hmmm... HTC had made it a bit difficult to play with our Genes by releasing two versions! However, we didn't know it and kept on using Olip HSPL. This bricked the new Genes and they remained so for months! Then Orefkov came with unbrick method! (Good bless him!) So, anybody didn't bother to create direct method of HSPL for new Gene. So, you have to follow tis method only. Don't worry, just follow. Even if you get stuck after Olip HSPL, you'll get out of it. I had pushed my Gene to a great limit. So, I am confident that I can easily HSPL new Genes. Just go on, I'll help if the need be!
[P3400 ROM Development] psychocyst:
which method did you use to verify this??

there have been known to be exceptions to the SPL checking mechanism...

anyways...despite of this, i suggest you carry on upgrading by the method given in the first few posts in this thread...if you do every step correctly as mentioned, you shouldn't run into any problems...
