Hardspl Failure

OK so far I've done everything 20 times, the 15th time I decided to donate but then my

touch pro 2 RHOD210 32m SPL .87 win 6.5 pro

told me that I was using the wrong software and this might brick my phone and it exited out of the program and when I tried again it asked me to donate all over again. I've installed

enablerapinew.cab

and

SDKcert.cab

but I still get the same errors even the 262 update error, I've put in a ticket like a month ago but no answer, I'm not new to the game because I've hardspl my htc hd2 and loaded many types of roms on it so I know how to follow directions. ok so what I'm asking is will I ever be able to hardspl this phone are what and is there a different way to do it without getting broke and constantly paying olinex for a free program?:confused::confused::confused::(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
You might want to be more specific about what problems you're getting, what computer OS you're using etc. The thing about donating is usually when you hit the "non-commercial use" error. If you're not hitting that, then donating won't instantly fix that at all.

If you're using the HardSPL from this forum (i.e. the GSM version, since you've got a GSM phone) and it's telling you it's the wrong type, then there's something majorly wrong there.

Have you tried running from a different PC with a different OS ? Often people seem to have problems with Win7, but some do get on fine with that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] cuteangelika:
i've been holding off updating roms because i was scared of bricking my phone but with this guide, i faced my fears and went for the at&t rom.

And it was successful!!! And on my first try even!

So thank you thank you thank you :-)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] bambam91:
How much more specific could I be, it's not the computer cause I tried win xp and win vista 32-bit and the same results on both computers. I came into this forum for noobs and read all the instructions, it clearly saids for gsm so.....I still dont get it, I downloaded Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3, after flash didnt work I tried manual, then like I said I downloaded SSPL-Manual-RhodiumV1_01 and it froze my phone every time I tried:confused::(:mad::confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mskip:
Glad you managed to do it on your first go. Well Done :)

Mark.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Well, you could be a lot more specific. You hadn't said up till now that you'd tried it on XP and Vista 32-bit, so that's extra information, thanks.

You said earlier that you are getting "the same errors". What errors exactly ? Same as what ? Please be more specific about what exactly you are trying (e.g. running the program in auto mode, manual mode) and what happens and when.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mskip:
Well for starters you didnt mention at all in your original post what operating system you had tried to HardSPL on so thats why stevie asked you to be more specific. In certain situations the type of operating system used can be a major factor in why it isnt working, but as we now know you have tried several OS's with no luck then in your case its not.

HardSPL on the Touch Pro2 can be very hit and miss and I never did like the idea of the program 'asking' you to donate in order to enable it to complete. The only time to donate is if you need more than 1 licence and if you have donated over a month ago with no support given then I would sugest you contact PayPal and request a refund of your money.

Ok now down to your problem. Im afraid theres probably not alot I can sugest that you havent already tried. Are you making sure there is an active sync connection between your pc and phone before trying anything? Also some people have had more luck after using a different usb port on thri pc. On my pc some usb ports work and some dont.

It would also be useful if you paste the exact HardSPL procedure from post1 and as you go through the procedure write next to that step whether it was successful or what went wrong (with any messages). That was it will give a much more definite point of failure and how you proceeded with the steps upto that point.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] bambam91:
ok, when I try to hardspl my touch pro2 flash it tells me I've already done it even thow it was my first time and after paying my phone said the program might brick my phone then it exited out of the program, when I retried it wanted me to donate all over again, so i tried manual and each time it stays at 0% then gives me the 262 err, and no matter how many times I reset the phone and computer it does the same thing. I've tried it on my win xp and win vista same results on both, so now what?:confused::confused::confused:

My Anti-Virus is telling me Hard SPL has a trojan and wipes the file.

Anyone here got the same problem?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mskip:
Your virus program is reporting a false detection because of the way the file is made. It is perfectlty same and has been used many many thousands of times with no affect. You need to disable your virus program before you run your HardSPL program and it will run fine.

Of course if you dont trust the HardSPL program then you dont have to use it but you cant HardSPL your phone any other way.

I tried to search but it said the server is down to this evening.

I'm trying to upgrade to the Energy rom but after I sync and I run the custom ruu, active sync drops off after it goes into bootloader screen. Then I get a window that its not connected to check my connections.

I am hardSPL already.

A little help please.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Put your phone into the bootloader by holding the Volume Down button and pressing reset. Then when it goes into the tri-colour screen, it should say "Serial" at the bottom. Then plug in your USB cable, and it should say "USB" at the bottom instead. Then you may be able to flash it ok, hopefully.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pray4mercy:
well download the hardspl..

2. connect my t-mobile tp2 n sync to pc

3. i following instruction on hardspl extract files...

4. run hardspl... then i check box to continue

5. then phone turns off.. i wait patiently.. bar is at 0 % when trying to find my phone connection ... then

6. get error 260... connection between phone n pc.. but when i reboot my phone and unplug my phone it syncs .....so i'm been looking the closes i got was i got a message on my phone sayin "the software is not for your device and may brick your phone" and i notice it was for sprint tp2... so i'm thinking is there one specific for t-mobile... cuz i've tried in my laptop and nothing when i sync the phone when doing the hardspl flash.... i'm a new noobee.. but this is so easy the steps to go by.. but still can't figure out why it disconnect when about to hardspl sync.............hopefully bro.. i explain myself... thx
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Where did you get the HardSPL from ? You said you noticed it was for Sprint ? If you've got a GSM phone then you need the one from this thread. The Sprint one is for CDMA phones.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pray4mercy:
got the sprint from just googleing "hardspl for t-mobile tp2 gsm" i forgot the name of the site.. but i did tired the one here but with no success! that's why i am asking if there is a hardspl for only t-mobile tp2 ! cause ive tired the one here with no success...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] othater:
Stevie,

That worked perfect.

Just had to wait for the new hardware to install, then it changed from serial to USB.

Thank you so much. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Assuming your phone is a GSM phone (and if it's a T-mobile branded one, then it is) then the HardSPL in this thread is the one you need to use, and should work.

Try the one from this thread again, and post up exactly where it's going wrong and what's happening.

A trojan virus inside the package ?!?

Hi!

My antivirus software, (Microsoft ForeFront) warns for a trojan virus inside the Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_003_185HSPL package, and i wonder why?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] patrizio.marchesan:
Same problem... :(

Same problwm with AVG... :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Guys, please read the sticky on HardSPL. There is no virus/trojan in the file, but often virus scanners think there is (because it does look very similar to some viruses/trojans). It's a false postive error, so disable your virus scanner if it's not letting you run it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mskip:
I edited the first post to highlight a section of step4 of the HardSPL stage. Maybe people missed it or didnt read it but it has been there for well over a year now so maybe it needs pointing out again.

4. Run Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3.exe on PC, make sure it's launched from a local drive (not through network drive, etc.). XP requires Admin logon and Vista/Windows 7 will automatically prompt to allow it to run in Admin mode, allow it. If you get an AntiVirus warning please ignore it, it contains no harmful code (just used a packer to compress it).

If you dont trust the program then you dont have to run it but it contains no harmful code.

How to flash t-mobile stock rom with your sd card?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Doo Doo:
1.Download Official T-Mobile Stock Rom

2.Extract The Files From The Exe Using Winrar (Right Click On Exe & Click Extract Files)

3.Open Folder That Got Extracted & Look For (ruu_signed.nbh)

4.Rename ruu_signed.nbh To RHODIMG.nbh

5.Put RHODIMG.nbh On SD Card & Flash Using These Instructions

Flashing Via MicroSD Card

1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)

2. Download your prefered Rom from the Rhodium Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your PC

3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to RHODIMG.nbh

4. Copy the RHODIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card

5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone

6. Enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top

7. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update

8. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device.

if i use The GSM Hard-SPL then he doesnt do annything on the automatic Flash.. He only shows the Add. about some error... it doesnt show the RUU

But when i use the CDMA one it works perfectly, i get the RUU. but my phone then says: "This Package is not intended for your device type!!! High chance of bricking!!! Exiting now"

Do you have a CDMA phone?

Mark.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] lord-whiskey:
Well, Please tell me,, how can i see that?!

that is the question!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Take the battery out of your phone, and look for some information printed onto a plate on the phone, near where the serial number and IMEI are.

There will be something like "RHODxxx", where the "xxx" are three digits. For example, mine is a "RHOD100". If you have something like RHOD100/200/300, then it's a GSM phone. If it's a RHOD400 or RHOD500 it's a CDMA one (and needs CDMA ROMs and radios, along with CDMA HardSPL).

Okay I am a total noob probably just dumb but I need some serious help! I have the files I want to use for the new ROM which is the Energy, Standard, Reference ROM. I have the file unziped and saved on a cd. Now when I hooked my phone up without the sim and sd cards, the phone wouldnt activesync. So I want to know if I use my good computer will it work or will it not? Also I need help with the install......Sorry
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
It shouldn't make any difference to syncing the phone whether you have the SD/SIM cards in or not. You can flash direct from SD card if you want, but I would suggest you try and see why you can't sync - e.g. if you put the cards back in again does it really sync fine ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] tscyadi4:
I have downloaded the ROM to my computer, the file is now coming up as unknown. I fixed that and got it to run on my computer (the .exe file) When I finally started the .exe file, then after I got to the third step it said my utility file wouldnt open or something. I guess Im just going to delete everything from my SD card and place the .nbh file on the DCIM_100MEDIA folder? Is that right? or what do I do?

plz can u tell me what to do
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
It sounds like your anti-virus software may be blocking things from running properly. I would disable your anti-virus software to see if that helps.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] tscyadi4:
Thats it though I dont believe I have antivirus other than Spybot but my other question is, which way do you recommend, the activesync or sd card. And with the sd card can I just delete everything and download the nbh file or should I format it then download it and do I download it to the dcim 100 media file?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Flashing via the PC is safer because there are more checks. But if you want to flash via SD card, then you don't have to delete everything, you just need the nbh file in the top (root) folder of your SD card (so not in any of the sub-folders).

Hi everyone,

I recently bought a Tilt 2 with original ROM and due to some issues, upgraded it with the help of the latest upgrade on HTC's website.

It has HTC Sense UI and a lot of other HTC stuff that I don't like (especially HTC messaging). I would like to go back to the stock ROM with Touch Flo 3D instead of Sense UI.

Being a noob, I have no idea what SPL or HardSPL is and would like to request you to guide me, step by step, on how to return to old stock ROM.

Can anyone help?

Thank you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
You don't need to worry about the SPL/HardSPL if all you're doing is flashing a stock ROM that was originally designed for your phone. e.g. if it's an HTC-branded phone which had an English ROM originally, then if you're flashing another official HTC English ROM.

All you will need to do is backup any data that you want to restore (e.g. contacts, messages etc), then flash the ROM (by running the .exe on your PC once your phone is sync'd), and there you go.

You just need to find the official ROM that you're after.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] vulpine23:
thanks for the reply stevie.

That is the problem actually, i can't find the original stock ROM. HTC doesn't have it on its website anymore. instead they have put up the new ROM which i have already flashed.

i have found a reconstructed stock rom at the following thread, but i guess to use it i'll have to install hardspl first:

Then go with ENERGY ROM. Istalled on phone with PC with Windows MObile Device Centar.

Phone restart, and that black screen with TOUCH PRO 2 (White colors) come in, and at the bottom that red text characters, and ENERGY at the end.

And is freeze here.

ROM is Energy.RHODIUM.21681.Sense2.1.Oct.15
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Sounds like you might have flashed the wrong type of ROM. What type of phone do you have exactly ? Take out the battery, and underneath there should be a section of writing which says something like "RHODxxx", where the "xxx" is three digits. That will tell you/us what model of Rhodium you have.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] spirziv:
That digits are 100 , so it will be RHOD100.

What is this meaning wrong ROM ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
RHOD100 is a GSM Rhodium, so all the GSM ROMs in this forum should be fine for your phone. If it's definitely a GSM ROM that you flashed, then I'd try running task29 on your phone and flashing again, in case something went wrong the first time.

You do need to wait for a while on the first boot after a flash, it takes quite a bit longer than normal. But after a couple of minutes, something should definitely be happening.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] spirziv:
Task 29 gone well.

There was no red text at bottom of first screen.

Is it normal to be frozzen at first screen after TEAS29 ?

And then with flash ROM same thing, stucked at first screen.
