SD Flash not working...

Hi All,

I'm trying to flash a ROM through the SD but it's not working at all...(btw thanks for the great detailed explanation)

I tried everything but it's always the same result: No Image File

My piece is a touch pro (Raphael)

My SD is Sandisk 2 GB FAT32 (I just formatted it as FAT32)...

File names I tried: RAPHMIG.nbh, raphimg.nbh, RAPHIMG.nbh...

I tried it with different ROMs even with an original one...

I put the file on the root directory, and I even tried to put only the NBH file on the SD but still in vain...

I tried entering the bootloader mode in two ways, through an exe file OR by using the volume down...

same result: No image file...

Please help as I don't have access to an XP pc to flash a ROM and the ROM I have has some conflicts...and I'm starting to get mad...:confused::eek:

Thanks...

HEY I need help ReFlashing a Rom onto my Tmobile USA GSM Touch Pro 2

Hello people:rolleyes:, I am doing this from work so I hope you can understand why I really haven't had 100% time to devote to researching (I did however devote more than 80% to research) I Have a US T-Mobile Touch Pro 2. I flashed a ROM on it about a

month ago and then I got hooked :eek: but I wanted something that I saw where the ROM has animated gestures for Weather and other cool aesthetic features :p(Manila 2.6, or ManilaMan I believe). I do still need it to be not freezing and such.:confused: I went and tried to install a manila rom and after that I got freezing and my screen wouldn't get back to normal :mad:(it stays just black) I was told I may need to wipe my phone clean (perhaps with Task 29) and flash a normal compatible T-Mobile US rom and THEN put

the FLASHY looking COOKED ROMS on.:cool: Basically I would like to have a nice flashy rom without the stuttering slowdowns:( on my TP2 also and I'd like to know what to do 1st. I've seen plenty of threads that end up giving you 98%:rolleyes: information and the other 2% ends up bricking :mad: your phone. If I could get some links to better my search for knowledge I would really like that. I know this is long and I truly appreciate this, I haven't even made a twitter account yet.lol. Enjoy your day people.:)

how do i flash a rom on my att tilt 2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dky500:
Go to the first page of this thrread and read thru the posts. It's all very self explanatory.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] alexuma:
Silly question though... but how do you hard reset Tilt2? I mean after flashing a ROM it's advisable to hard reset but I am sure what's the exact key combination to do that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
To do a hard reset (which wipes all settings, texts, contacts etc), with the phone turned off, press and hold the Talk/Send, End and Power buttons until you see a message on the screen about wiping the device - then let go of the buttons and press Volume Up as instructed in the message.

Titl 2 AT&T flash problem

Hi:

I have a HTC Tilt 2 AT&T version. I am trying to flash it with a clean rom (without all AT&T stuff) but I am always having the same problem... My phone stops at 0% when flashing and never go on. I tryed Hard SPL, from my pc, copy and executing from the phone, several types of roms and the issue is exactly the same in all cases... Every time stop at the begining of the flashing process at 0%. I tryed from Vista 32bits pc and Win7 64bits.

My boot screen shows:

RHOD300 32M SS-BC

SPL-0.87.0000

MicroP(LED) 0x0A

Micro(Key) 0x04

Turbo HW/Turbo SW

TP MFG DATA

504,532 793,854

788,207 213, 207

220, 855 Calibrated

At last I tryed to flash it with the AT&T original Rom and it works... so It's something related wiht these unofficial roms.

Please help me!!

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mskip:
You need to install HardSPL before you can flash custom Roms.

After that is done you should have no problems.

Stuck in Bootloader

While flashing the current Leo Cell rom I got an error which put me into the bootloader screen. I reflashed with sucess but upon reboot I went right back into Bootloader.

I have since then ran Task29, reflashed via activesync with another rom as well as Flashed using SD Card method but everytime it reboots after the flash it goes straight into bootloader.

Any suggestions?

TIA

UPDATE: Problem resolved. I flashed back the Original ATT Rom and then reflashed the Leo Cell Rom and all is good!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mag1c22:
i am a complete noob to this, i just got my tilt 2 and got rid of my iphone.

anyways, the person whom i bought it from said it has been unlocked.

so is there a way i can make sure it is? or should i just use the HardSPL step anyways?

Thanks!

Can't flash phone back to original ROM

I have flashed my previous Kaiser several times (using HardSPL) and have upgraded my Telstra Touch Pro 2 to the recently released Telstra WM6.5 ROM, so I'm not a total newb to flashing. Unfortunately, since upgrading, the GPS rarely gets a fix on satelites and the data connection has become very flakey - even with a signal strengthe showing several bars.

Consequently, I want to return to the original Telstra WM6.1 ROM and radio and see whether this sorts out the problems.

I have downloaded the Telstra ROM backed up by Buzz83 (which does not include the original radio) and downloaded the original radio 3.44.25.27 plus I have downloaded CustomRUU.exe. I have not installed HardSPL since I am not flashing any custom ROMs and staying with the ROMs and radios provided by the carrier only (it is a work-supplied phone, so I have to stick with Telstra ROMs). When I try to flash by USB, I get the tricolour screen (it flashes briefly to a white screen - too fdast to read - before going back to tricolour) and it then shows 0% progress which never moves. Eventually, it gives up and reports a communication problem. If I try to flash from the card, I just get the tricolour screen with "Serial" near the bottom, where it says "USB" when flashing via USB, and it goes no further.

What am I doing wrong?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
Being unlocked is different from having HardSPL. If you have HardSPL then when the phone boots, there will be four lines of red writing at the bottom of the initial screen for a few seconds. Also, if you hold the Volume Down key and press reset, the phone will boot into a tri-coloured screen with lots of writing, if it's got HardSPL.

I suspect your phone is just SIM/security unlocked, meaning you can use it on any network, i.e. it's not locked to one network.

Hard-Spl License

IMPORTANT: Each user gets 1 license, or perhaps 2-3 on request if needed (valid forever and works as transparently as possible, so it won't be a problem at all)

you can send a request for 1-2 more devices for private user (free) at h***://support.htc-unlocks.com(ONLY at this link, not in PM).

Hi all.. I have a noob question here. Does the phrase above means i have to get a license first to do a hard-spl on my device? And do i have to pay to get one? thanx
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
You get one licence for free. So usually you can just install HardSPL and it works fine. Sometimes you can find it tells you you've installed HardSPL before, and if you haven't then you can request 1-2 more licences for free, as it says above, which should sort the problem.

It's basically just something to stop companies setting up a service to HardSPL your phone and then charging you for it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] antrapoda:
Hard-Spl License

So Stevie.. Does it means it would automatically download a license to hard-spl or i need to key in the license key when doing hard-spl? because i have sent a request for license to the site mention above. i have notice that internet connection is required during the hard-spl as in the 1st page. btw thanx for replying.:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
It automatically gets you one licence, you don't have to do anything special. This is why you need the Internet connection when you HardSPL, as you mention. So you don't have to type in a licence key or anything like that, you just run it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] antrapoda:
Hard-Spl License

owh now its all clear.. thank you so much.. cant wait to flash my device after finish work.. :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mskip:
Internet connection is require as that is how the program checks if you have HardSPL'd before and gives you your free licence. You cannot go through the HardSPL procedure without an internet connection.

If this is the first time you are doing this then just make sure you are online and go through the steps in post 1. If for some reason it says you have already used your free licence then thats when you need to contact the programs creators and wait for another free licence (or donate a few dollars/euros to get another licence imediately).

I am going to sound so stupid... sigh

any ideas?

i don't know where you live but you could always go to a library, college library, net cafe, book store (borders, barnes and noble), coffee shop (starbucks) etc. and use their internet to complete the hardspl flashing process or just buy pay as you go wifi access and use it one time to get hardspl flashed and after that you are done.

hope this helps.

hello, i'm thinking about buying the HTC touch pro 2 (NL version) in combination with a contract from Vodafone, but i'm leaving NL for 2month to do some humanitarian work in Ghana, so a simlock free phone would come in handy.

During my search on google I bumped into this forum, first of all thumbs up for this amazing community you have here!

Because I didn't entirely wanted to look like a newb, I did some background readings about Hard-SPL. And it seems like the program that can do the job (make the phone simlock free), can anyone confirm this for me? :rolleyes:

Thanks in advance and loads of kudos!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] asango:
Hi,

another poster already asked the following question, but there was no answer on it so far:

--->Will HardSPL also "SIM unlock" and "application unlock" the Rhodium?

I remember that I think OliPof? had a tool for the Kaiser to do this, but after some time of not working on this stuff I don't remember if HardSPL is also including these two things making it unnecessary to do anything else in order to SIM/APP unlock the device.

Thanks for any information and maybe putting it into the noobs documentation!

first time to post

Hello,

This is my first time to post in this thread, and I'm kind of confused with the jargons used in several conversations (forgive me about this).

Here's my question: I got this HTC TP2 from Taiwan, that ofcourse comes with a Chinese Language (or ROM I should say?), but then I'm in Canada and I can't really read Chinese language. This phone was just sent to me by my dad who is in Taiwan.

Now is this "Flashing your ROM" the solution to my never ending frustration of having a chinese speaking TP2? By doing this process, does it mean I can finally install English Language on my TP2 and use it in Canada?

Thanks guys!!! Hope you here from you guys soon... :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Obs3rv3r:
Hi I'm new to all of this, I followed all of the instructions listed, and everything worked perfectly, except that each of the ROMS that I have tried (EnergyROM Genesis - Standard 2.5, Miri WM ROM), once I slide the keyboard out the home screen does not go into landscape mode. Instead it just appears to empty, having the menu options at the bottom. All the other screens seem to go into landscape fine, just the home screen is the problem.

Is this normal with Manilla 2.5/ Windows Mobile 6.5?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Obs3rv3r:
Never mind my question, I found the answer searching through the forum. Guess we'll have to wait for HTC to sort it out.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
Ok. Thanks for the reassurance. So if I want to go back to the Rom that came with the phone, how do I do that? Is the ROM update on the HTC website suitable?

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] DaveShaw:
Depends what ROM came with the Phone, if you have a HTC unbranded then use that one.

Just flash the ROM back and then follow the restore Stock SPL instructions in the Hard SPL thread.

Dave
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iridium21:
Hi Dave,

Thanks again.

Yes it's on T-Mobile, but it's an unbranded, sim-free phone. So I guess the one on HTC's website would be ok - yes? I'm not that concerned with the Stock SPL, I just wondered what I'd use to flash it back to how it is right now if I didn't like any of the cooked ROMs.

Many thanks for your help.

Steve
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lennyz1988:
Simmilair question here. If i understood it correctly then if you want to flash back to a stock rom, you can just download it from the xda wiki and then run the setup and flash back. Can anyone confirm this for me?

It should normally work fine, since you get a single licence for free. If you're coming up against problems where it says you've run it before though, then you'll need to contact the creators. See Mark's reply above for how long you'll have to wait (i.e. we don't know).
