Fatal Error

Before I post my n00b question...I ran a search in the forum and nobody has answered this question that was posted by others or the posters never came back with the solution.

I am running Sprint Touch Pro 2, stock rom.

I hard reset my device and synced with Windows Mobile Device Center (running Windows 7 32bit)

Everything is connected and I run the file: RhodiumW-HardSPL_V1_10R3_100HSPL.zip

The program runs and I select the Flash Hard-SPL (Automatic)

Then I check OK

and then I get this error message:

"Fatal Error - Please make sure the device is still plugged in and synchronized to the PC"

I then tried in manual mode and still no go.

Am I using the wrong SPL for my device? Let me know how to fix this issue.

Thanks in advance!

i had the same problem, i had to put the phone into bootloader mode (hold power and volume down and hit the reset button)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ohhhhhmy:
Thanks, tried loading the unlock again in automatic mode...no success. then tried using manual mode but gets stuck at 0% and then connection error.

unlocker important info read

None of you are getting your answeres because they are in jail for violation of the digital mellenium copywrite act.

The reason we are getting the license error is because when you run the ruu it checks a database for bla bla bla and they disabled everything.

This is what ive been told from a few people who know the folks well.

I have a phone fetish and sell and trade personal phones all the time. I just recently got a droid evo. SCREW THE MS PHONES! THEY ARE CRAP! GO GET YOURSELVES A DROID!

I am a donater of about $100 for the past year or so. And the same ruu has been on my drive and unlocked many phones. Now all of a sudden im getting the lecense error. Sent numerious emails and never one answer.

**** YOU COM!

dammit

sigh,

sprint cdma touch pro 2

initial flash went fine, rebooted and got back to the home screen. then ran the tool for some random rom, and after rebooting, it never gets past the white htc start screen.

i tried putting a different rom on my microsd.. get to the bootloader just fine, says installation successful or whatever, then i reboot with the stylus and it once doesnt go any further.

somebody give me any idea of how to fix this, please...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] razorloves:
sounds like you flashed a gsm rom. what rom did you flash?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] warrenis1234:
i went to

r|MULTI LANG|Oct 20|.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.Energy.¸¸.·´¯ 6.5|21916 / 6.5.X|21682 * Sense 2018

(i cant post links yet)

and at the top, he says it's only for gsm, but "i do make a cdma version, click here", so i clicked there and downloaded it from that page. lol.

i saw some roms that didnt say which they were, so i skipped them until i found one that was specifically labeled "this is for cdma"

I saw what was told to another user having the same problem above, im gettting the stock rom now to see if i can go back. sh!t, if it goes back just fine, im gonna try another one.. i cant stand the stock
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] warrenis1234:
siggghhh, as u can imagine, waiting for a response was torture, so i went ahead and a cdma rom only thread and tried another after i saw that i can still run the tool through usb when in bootloader, instead of putting it on my microsd, and it worked.

im sure i did something wrong because other people used the energy rom just fine, i just cant imagine what. maybe it was my micro, i did format it to fat32 first though

thanks for your help, i really appreciate it
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] razorloves:
there is no multi-language enrgy rom that is cdma. All cdma energy roms say CDMA in the file name, so it makes it easy.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] warrenis1234:
yes, which is why i downloaded the filename listed as Energy.RHODCDMA.21916.Sense2.5.Cookie.GTX.Oct.25

Hard-SPL flash just worked for my VZW TP2. Ive read otherwise and was sktchy on trying but it worked
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Bohn101:
Hard-SPL is for non-commercial purposes only

Same old news here. I had at TP2 and was really having issues, so I had it replaced last week in the store. I was able to unlock that 2nd TP2 with no problems. Noticed that the keyboard had some hardware issues (space had no feed back).

Went back to the store, Sprint ended up sending me a 3rd sweet brand new one with box, accessories and everything. The problem now is that I'm getting the "Hard-SPL is for non-commercial purposes only." I've looked into making a payment of £4, but the box which asks for the IMEI# is sized to 2 numbers less than my phone IMEI.

Has anyone made a payment, using there shorted/truncated IMEI# and been able to automatically unlock after that?

If it has worked, I will make payment, but it looks like most ppl are waiting 2-4 weeks to get any help. I've sent emails to the two listed and opened a ticket.

Any positive input or help would be greatly appreciated.

One other possibility is that this phone is to new, in that the current SPL is 0.72, see image:
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] razorloves:
they only allow one device for free. they record what computer and internet connection you use, so if you try again using the same **** you used to unlock previously, then your phone will be blacklisted and you will get the "We have detected that you unlocked before...blah, blah, blah." That is what happened to you. The way to avoid getting blacklisted is to use a different computer and different internet connection whenever you need to unlock future tp2 replacements. So, now that your tp2 is blacklisted, the only thing you can do is run the unlocker again like the instructions say, then when you get the "We've detected that you unlocked before..." message, it gives you the option to doante. Click on it and do the 4gbp donation. When you do it, they automatically collect your imei and whitelist your tp2. Then you'll be able to unlock. There is no place to type in your imei when doing this entire process, so i dont know what you're talking about there.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Bohn101:
Thanks for the input razorloves, ppls around here seem to love you. I went a head and made a payment today, and was immediately able to unlock. I posted a new thread to help with others also having problems on the topic.

HARD SPL without internet connection or older HSPL somewhere for DL?

hello, i just received my htc touch pro 2 from asurion with sprint brand new today and im familiar with flashing hard spl and roms because i did it with several phones previously and have a TP2 last year..

my question is now im unable to flash because i believe the new HARD SPL needs an internet connection correct? well im without internet right now and i only tether from my touch pro 2 wifi tethering.. so how would i be able to sync my phone while keeping the phone tethered so i could complete the hard spl flash??

It seems the hard spl gotten a little bit more complicated as to whats required to enable a successful flash.. Is there still an old version of HARD SPL floating because i would like to use that instead.. thanks again for the responses..
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] razorloves:
the hardspl unlocker for the tp2 has worked the same since day one, so not sure what you're talkin about. But, on ppcg's there have been a couple people in your same situation that said they were able to use the phones internet connection while tethered to successfully use the unlocker.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Xenithflare:
My girlfriend is having much the same problem with her Verizon TP2. She got the Hard-SPL loaded without much of a hitch, despite having no technical savvy whatsoever, and the bootloader shows 1.00.Olinex as it should. The problem comes after; now the phone won't boot past the whitescreen, and she can't get it to detect the ROM she wants to use (one of NRG's Nov8th CDMA ROMs) via the SD method. I'm trying to help her out, but she's out of town with the phone...

From what I can tell, she should be able to run a tool from the bootloader with a USB connection? I assumed it was the RUU that comes packed with every ROM, but she claims hers didn't... even though I know it does, because I downloaded the same thing, to check <_< Mind if I get some clarification for some piece of mind, good sirs?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] razorloves:
the latest stock verizon rom on the tp2 will not boot with the hardspl unlocked. this doesnt happen with any other stock rom, so it's kinda odd, but, it's a known condition.

all she has to do is download any custom cdma tp2 rom and put the phone into botloader mode and connect the usb cable and run the ruu. I've downloaded nrgz roms before and sometimes they dont have the ruu. It will just be an nbh file. She can get the ruu from nrgz thread.

EDIT: i just downloaded one of his roms to see and he does include the ruu, but it's in a selfextracting exe file. So, if she just double clicks on the exe file, it will start the process
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] emkorial:
Any help with my issue?

I tried changing USB ports, changing USB cables, installing the cab the installer tells me to install, nothing, I run the program, and after hitting the "OK" button to start flashing, NOTHING happens, on the phone or the PC. WTF is going on?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Xenithflare:
I re-downloaded the ROM she was trying to use, and it did come with the RUU that should've started it so long as the phone was in bootloader mode. I called her this morning with that info and gave her step by step instructions, and she made a comment about "if I can GET IT into bootloader..." which made me stop and think. I asked her if she held down the buttons or if she let them go as soon as she saw the tricolor.

I bet you can guess what her answer was XD

So I had her re-load the ROM to the SD card and hold the buttons down until the bootloader recognized the ROM, and it worked. Now she has a fully functional phone, and she's not allowed to mess with things again without supervision XD Thanks for the assist though, I'll let her know about the stock ROM not loading with hard SPL.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cajunflavoredbob:
It's time for a change.

I'm thinking of starting a bounty for a new Hard SPL tool. We need one that will be free with no stipulations to the community. We've seen already that the creators of this tool are either too busy, or don't care about it's users. I don't mean to flame or provoke, but there were ways to avoid this. We only got their attention for a brief period in the GSM thread when Fenny posted a work around. If cmonex came around and began answering tickets there for another reason, then I apologize, but when the whitelister tool was removed, support ceased again.

I don't mean to offend or provoke anyone here, but this is ridiculous at this point that we have a "donation" only SPL unlocker that is not supported by its creators, whatever their reason for not doing so may be. The majority of people in these threads are posting about problems that they have with the tool. The support from the tickets seems to have come to a close, and I feel that our purchasing of said tool should end as well.

I appreciate everything that cmonex and olipro have done for this community. I hold no grudge against them for this. I know that life gets in the way. However, they could have recruited someone to fill in for them who would actually be in these threads as well as over on the htc-unlocks website who could provide support to the folks who use this software.

I donated $10 when I first got my TP2 in the mail and unlocked it. I wasn't required to do so, but I did because this is where it all begins in regards to flashing literally ANYTHING on our devices. I respect their work, but forcing users to pay and then not helping with the problems is not acceptable by me. Look for my new thread in this area shortly.

Again, to cmonex and olipro, I hold no grudge against you two and respect the time and effort that you've put into your tool. I, as well as most others here, only wanted to see some support for what is essentially "paid software" for many users.

EDIT: New thread started. Come on over and help out. :) For anyone who noticed, I just copied the post from the GSM thread to here. ;)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Dr.8820:
from what's been posted, have you guys tried emailing again? she (cmonex) is answering emails again. i'm no fan of how things were and are being handled, hell, i'm still waiting for a response from my december 29, 2009 email lol...but let's not scare her off again! i've taken what's been happening and turned it into a positive...that's why i help out in the sim unlocker thread, because no one was around to help me :).
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cajunflavoredbob:
I'm not trying to scare anyone off. It's time that these Hard SPL tools were made free of charge. I have nothing against donating to them, but the "donation" system is what is causing the problems. The bounty on the thread I started applies to cmonex and olipro as well. If they decide to release a free version, then they can claim it. No one has a problem with what they do for the community, most folks are just upset with the lack of support they receive from what is essentially "paid" software. I don't want to start a war or anything with them. I just want to see that the community is looked after.

Reformed Hater

Much like many of the other stories shared recently mine was one of assumed deception, frustration bordering on rage, and plots for immediate retribution. I was shocked when, after bricking my device --nearly a year after the initial flash-- my attempts at flashing my replacement device were largely unsuccessful . I was further appalled when through hours of dedicated thread searching I came to the realization that not only was my IP address flagged as a "commercial user" IP, but my devices IMEI had consequently been added to a ban list; Thus limiting my options to: suffering through PPC use with a stock sprint rom, "donating" money to a group that markets their service as freeware for all non commercial users (to which my objection on mere general principle prevented me from even considering), or submiting a service ticket through their support site and pray. Though all reports seemed to condemn the latter option as an excersise in futility i found it to be my only real option and so took the time to plead my case and issue the ticket. I found my self shocked yet again when just 2 weeks (not 4-6) after issuing my ticket i received an email from the support depertment requesting my IMEI; and further elated when 72hrs after fulfilling this request another message appeared stating that my replacment phone could now be unlocked. I immedietly attempted to flash my phone and to my immesne delight, I was successful! :D

ANY NON COMMERCIAL HARD-SPL USER WHO IS UNSUCCESSFULLY TRYING TO UNLOCK THEIR REPLACEMENT DEVICE, THERE IS HOPE!!! the support team at olipro has not forsaken us, we must merely display a glimmer of patience and trust that those members the community we so aptly dub ourselves active members of, much like us, intend in their actions a result that is deemed as a benefit to those around them rather than a deficiency. As such the advised method to a reasonably timely FREE solution is as follows:

1.visit olipro support page and issue support ticket explaining your situation and INCLUDE YOUR IMEI!!!~~ Unfortunateley as I am a new user I cannot post the link but it is under the contact tab on the download sites homepage

2.wait (patiently if at all possible) for a response from olipro support, saying your IMEI has been removed from the ban list

3. PROCEED TO UNLOCK YOUR DEVICE AND BEGIN FLASHING CUSTOM ROMS AGAIN!!!!!

Thank you to the programmers at Olipro and the Support team for your dedicated service!

Regarding those who feel that the support team at olipro has abandoned Rhodium users, and those who say that the precautions taken by those at olipro are an exercise of the utmost hypocrisy, I ask you to take a moment to assess the folly in your proclamations. I couldn't agree more that marketing a product as freeware and then abandoning the only free means of using the service more than once is a gross travesty, BUT THIS NOT CASE! Not only are those at olipro still answering rhodium support tickets, but considering the likely high volume of tickets 2 weeks of waiting for a free service hardly seems unreasonable.

Sprint Touch Pro 2

I have been having a lot of issues with the stock rom on my Sprint Touch Pro 2. I was going to try to use a custom rom but I noticed tn here that there seems to be some issues going on.

Is it okay to use the current unlocker?

Can anyone recommend a good stable rom?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] beachcomp.com:
Paid customer, just got a new phone from insurance and it says I cant unlock because of commercial.

Manual just gets stuck @ 0%.

Opened a high priority ticket with the good folks and now lets see how long it will take to respond.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cajunflavoredbob:
Make sure you put your ticket in the right area. It should be in "Rhodium HardSPL" or, if you've already donated before, "Rhodium HardSPL - Paying customer." cmonex has been on top of the tickets lately, as long as you're putting them in the right place. If you did this correctly, then just wait a bit. A response should come within 48 hours.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] beachcomp.com:
Thanks!

I did put in a ticket the right way, but what makes me nervous is I didnt get any email from them after it, and now it wont let me put in a second one.

Meanwhile, I'm stuck with crappy HTC rom after 2 days of no phone.

Oh well.. could be worst... no phone at all. ;)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cajunflavoredbob:
No auto respond e-mail is something we're trying to get changed right now. The system has its flaws, but we're working hard with the OPs to get it sorted out for the future. If your ticket goes more than 48 hours unanswered, PM cmonex about it. She will normally respond as soon as she sees the ticket, though. Don't loose your ticket number.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] beachcomp.com:
Yep.

what sucks is now I dont know my ticket #, so I cant confirm they got it, or to check status,

All,

I have a SIM Unlocked HTC Touch Pro 2 (Telus)

The Touch Pro 2 that I have supports both CDMA and GSM.

When i try to do a HardSPL (Automatic), on the screen the progress bar remains at 0% and I get a messsage on the phone screen saying 'This Package is not intended for your device type. High Chances of Bricking. Exit now'.

When i press ok, Active Sync shuts down and later I get ERROR [260]:Connection

I have tried Manual Mode but the same problem persists. I cannot get to open the file 'SSPL-Manual-RhodiumV1_10.exe' on the phone. Error is 'This Package is not intended for your device type. High Chances of Bricking. Exit now'.

Please guide.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cajunflavoredbob:
As I mentioned, it doesn't matter what your device supports. It is a CDMA device regardless of what carrier you use it for. The Hard SPL tool is trying to save you from bricking your device. Download the Hard SPL package from the first post of this thread, and try again with your anti-virus software disabled.

HTC Touch PRO2 Telus(GSM+CDMA) - ROM Update Issues

Hi All,

:)

At this stage i am short of options and would request someone to help me a little....Here is the scenario.

I have a HTC Touch PRO 2 (TELUS) that I bought SIM unlocked from a E-Bay Store.

I am using this device on GSM Network.

The device is a Win 6.1 Mobile.

I want to upgrade it to Win 6.5 for which I tried flashing the ROM using one obtained for European Region from HTC Website. Flashing failed with the error ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID

Going through the Forum, I tried to do a HARD-SPL.

When i try to do a HardSPL (Automatic), on the screen the progress bar remains at 0% and I get a messsage on the phone screen saying 'This Package is not intended for your device type. High Chances of Bricking. Exit now'.

When i press ok, Active Sync shuts down and later I get ERROR [260]:Connection

I tried Manual Mode again and the same problem but at one stage, I was able to HARDSPL.

Then When i tried to write the Win 6.5 ROM, I get this error

ERROR [226] : FLASH WRITE

Appreciate your help on this matter.

Is there a way for me to get rid of the TELUS binding? :confused:
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cmonex:
you can't flash an european rom on a telus (CDMA) device. it can use GSM, but that doesn't mean it can use GSM-only (no CDMA) roms.

sorry, that date of "dec. 29, 2009" is not enough info. I seem to recall talking to a guy who had an old ticket which was reopened with a new question, but I'm not sure if that's it, and I don't have any keyword to search for - so, what is the ticket number or give me the start of your email address (don't need the entire address)?

I see you said you figured it out, but if you don't mind, then I'm still curious.
