[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
I see Lehrerbuch is offline now, so I will jump in for you:

1. Either remove HSPL with HSPL2_RUN.exe and set it to SPL 1.66 (You can find it here:http://www.hotfilesearch.com/hspl2-run.html), or install/use: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11499585&postcount=3. If you use HSPL4, set it to (H?)SPL 3.03 in order to flash HTC ROM 3.14 in the correct way with the usual RUU-----.exe from HTC itself.

2. Soft reset your device after you have done that.

3. Download with your S/N the HTC's ROM version 3.14 from HTC's official website

4. After downloading this to your PC, connect device to PC with either ActiveSync or WMC without setting your device up, i.e. syncing contacts, emails, etc.

5. Run the RUU...3.14 file from your PC. At a certain time your device will enter bootloader screen. Watch closely that it says at the bottom USB. If it does not say this, de- and reconnect your device untill it says USB and start it again.

6. After having succesfully flashed 3.14, you then can download Artemis V5x to your PC.

7. Make sure you have SSPL_RUN.exe (you can get it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=606713) on your PC in a seperate, preferably called empty, folder. Instead of using SSPL_RUN.exe, you can also use this one: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=492361&d=1295295583. This program is called LeoAdvancedRUU.exe and is posted by and all credits for that go to Kurt-Willems. Extract the downloaded V5x to the same folder where SSPL (or LeoAdvancedRUU) resides. The V5x will be in a extra folder within your newly created Empty folder. Go to the Artemis folder and copy the RUU_Signed_xxxx.nbh file to the same place where SSPL (or LeoAdvancedRUU) is.

9. Start SSPL (or LeoAdvancedRUU - if you use this one, always choose the third option=SSPL) and it will start flashing V5x. Be sure to be on homescreen of your device when you start SSPL (or LeoAdvancedRUU). Also then you will see at a certain time the bootloader screen. Again watch closely that it says USB at the bottom, otherwise perform step 5 again.

10. After installing V5x, perform first a hard reset (windows - settings - system - clear storage - 1234 - OK) and thereafter a soft reset and you're ready to go.

1. With the relesase of the new HSPL4, future will tell us if, when upgrading to a next Artemis version, we will stiil have to reflash HTC 3.14 before upgrading (as a kind of Task29) or not. Probably this is not necessary anymore when we set it to HSPL 3.03 and are able to flash new Artemis versions just like in the old times with HSPL2/3 and using Task29 before flashing. Credits for this goes the post of kb1313- http://xdaforums.com/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=11512103 - in Artemis thread. I will keep a close eye on that!.

2. This is the current situation with HSPL4:

A. If you already have SPL 3.03 (wich comes with HTC's stock ROM 3.14) and you only flash Artemis ROM's for which SSPL_RUU or LeoAdvancedRUU are still needed, there is no absolute necessity to install HSPL4, unless you want to perform a Taks29 before each new flash. So in this case, yes you have to install it.

B. If you do not have SPL3.03 on your device and want Artemis ROM (or something else that needs (H)SPL 3.03), you absolutely need HSPL4 in order to get (H)SPL 3.03 on your device so you can flash Artemis 50+ or something else, which need SPL 3.03.

3. So, no (H)SPL 3.03, due to whatever cause, on a device, means always installing HSPL4. This also means that you can install Artemis 50+ without first upgrading to HTC 3.14 ROM which comes in very handy for those users for whom there is still no 3.14 ROM available. You can do it from 1.66/1.72 ROM also when HSPL4 is installed.

4. If you installed HSPL4 and have set it to HSPL 3.03 and you want to flash Artemis ROM with LeoAdvancedRUU, choose the first option. Flashing Artemis ROM with the third option of LeoAdvancedRUU is only applicable when your device is set to/still is on SPL 3.03!

P.S. There is also another way to flash HTC's Stock 3.14 Rom to your device. This method works through SD Card. So if the above method does not work for you, you can try this one:

1. Download from HTC's website the official HTC 3.14 ROM with your S/N and extract this 3.14 RUU file with 7-zip or power archiver to desktop.

2. There wil be a file named ruu_signed.nbh on your desktop. Rename that to leoimg.nbh.

3. Copy this file to the root of the SD card, preferably not larger than 2 gB (credits for this advice go to user Kurt-Willems).

4. Power off device and reinsert SD card.

5. Enter bootloader mode (press and hold vol down key and then shortly on/off button) and 3.14 will be automatically installed and will also remove HSPL (therefore removal of HSPL before this procedure is not/B] necessary at all.

6. Thereafter: happy Artemis flashing. Make sure though that the custom.nbh file of Artemis version and SSPL_RUN.exe (or LeoAdvancedRUU - also credits to user Kurt-Willems) are in the same folder.

Hope this will be of help to all users with HTC's 3.14, and therefore Artemis ROM, flashing problems.

Both these methods will not work for those people with branded phones whose providers still have not have released their official HTC 3.14 ROM!! In this case you will have to use the Goldcard method as described by user Oliver Weidel on this same page!
