Flashing Roms Custom And Stock

[enigmatic]

Question
If I do this...."HTC DIAMOND
From Stock To Custom:

1. Unlock phone using hardspl found here: https://www.wckediden.com/show...iamond+hardspl (https://www.wckediden.com/showthread.php?t=171818&highlight=diamond+hardspl)
2. download rom of your choice
3. drag the nbh file into the diamond RUU (most come with RUU already)
4. Run romupdateutility.exe
5. Follow steps through wizard

Custom to Custom
USE STEPS 2-5 ABOVE"

Will I then be able to use a custom ROM to resolve my battery issues? If that is the case which 'Juicy' version should I use, and where can I find instructions for the install itself? I know where the ROM release section is in the side tool bar. Will I have apps that don't get reloaded or need to be reloaded? If that happens where and how do I do this too? Mucho thanks in advance. Oh and one last thing....I have a Diamond Touch, is this the same as the Diamond referred to above? If it isn't then I am still lost in the woods.
Sorry for being a pain.

i dunno mucha bout diamonds but i know dash always suggest using the latest juicy rom. the touch diamond is just the longer name of the diamond. people don't call it touch diamond probably cuz it's too long and they get lazy lmao. you already have the directions to install a rom so follow them. download the .nbh file and drop into ruu folder and then flash. but before that, remember to unlock

i read that. i guess i just follow those intrusctions haha thanks

[Fatal_Error]

If you follow them to a T everything will be fine

[m260gt]

i saw that it said that if i get a text or a call during the flashing process my phone will be messed up? i dont think there is any way i can make sure i wont get a text. what if i just turn the phone service off while i do the flash? or would that not be good?

I have an HTC Touch Pro in the US on the Sprint PCS network.

I have followed the instructions and I have installed Hard SPL correctly on the machine.

I'm now trying to follow this, but where is the ruu.zip attachment? Where is the link to the ROMUpdateUtility.exe? What is the best ROM and best radio that I should install to improve performance on this thing? I had to use the manualSSPL to install the HARDSPL software originally - will I need to do that to install the ROM?

I"m just confused since some of these sites talk about holding volume down with a reset button, some with the power button. Very confusing...


Touch Pro

How to Flash Via PC:

1.download the ruu.zip attachment
2.unzip to your desktop
3.then in the newly created RUU directory add the rom of your choice - (copy the RUU_Signed.nbh to desktop\RUU)
4.Place phone in bootloader mode (power button while holding volume down button)
5.open the ROMUpdateUtility.exe
6.follow the RUU on screen instructions from there


Please help!

OK, I found this: the RUU.zip file on the ppcsgeeks site (can't post the link for some reason since I"m a newbie poster)).

So, I think i have that.

But I"m still not clear about the bootloader mode or what ROM to load..

If the machine is on, and I hold the volume down and the power button, it gives me a warning that power will be lost and I may lose data if I have not saved them. (basically shuts down the phone), not right.. So that doesn't seem to be the right thing to get it into bootloader mode. I have the manualsspl.exe - can I use that?

Still not clear what ROM or Radio I should load assuming I did what is described above.

Just wait for Kaos to finish his rom. It is by far the best, Your patience will be greatly rewarded. And your current radio should be fine. And the rom update utility will put it in bootloader mode when you run it with the new ROMs .nbh file in the folder. Thats the way I always do it.

[egoldy]

Thanks for responding..

Any idea when that ROM is going to be released?

Also, the reason why I'm curious about the radio is that the GPS has never worked very reliably. VERY slow to capture location. I was kind of hoping that an updated radio might fix that.

What is expected to be in or not in this ROM? I"m also curious abuot what people think about 3dFLow? I personally hate it and have been experimenting with other launchers like Winterface. Is the UI expected to be based on 3dFLOW?

I found a youtube video of a Kaos' interface that seems to be 3dflow based (can't post the link), so I'm assuming it is...

If I replace 3d with Winterface or something else, how much will a ROM Like this help me?

just run the unlocker following the steps and it will auto place you in bootloader and than comes the rom.... and the ruu is easily found the link is below..... and also you can flash from the storage card for your touch pro by renaming the nbh file to RAPHIMG.nbh and than dragging that to a fat32 formatted 2 gig card or less and manually placing in bootloader with the process you mentioned above..

you can just get the unlocker from here :>

[jsgeezie]

what do i use to open up the nbh. file... or do i just move it to my storage card or what should i do.. im going to try the storage card method... I have a 1 gb that came with it.. should i wipe the card clean before attempting to put anything else on there.. do i just randomly make a empty folder or just place it in there by itself...

I truly appreciate it Dash.. im going to go to random posts and thank you because i dont see a thank u button on here.. lol... :clap::clap:

all you do is format your card freshly again to FAT32 and than drag the nbh file only to the card and than manual bootloader..... a message will come on the screen and just follow what it tells you to do.

[jsgeezie]

How would i do that.. format my card to fat32... sorry for my noobism.. i thought i had more swagg than that lol..

hahaha aight all you have to do is insert it into your card reader on your computer than right click and go to format than FAT32is the option that you want... if you havent used it at all than you will still be formatted and have no problems.

do you have the card inserted and did you manually place in bootloader again by pressing and holding the volume down button, the power button, and the middle circle while sof resetting than you will be fine.

I am a little confused so going to ask questions during the process.
1) I downloaded your zip to my desktop and unzipped
2) I ran the RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3 program. Everything seemed to go fine and my phone rebooted, everything said things were good.

now do I click and run the CustomRUU file?

I forgot to add that I also have downloaded Da_G-ATT-Fuze-Cooked-Beta-1.7-MSVC-Dec-3-2008 which is Dash's ROM for the FUZE. So I am still at the point I posted above and unsure of what to do next. Thanks.

UPDATE - the custom ROM installed and the phone is back up and running at a basic set up. I am now downloading all the cabs of the programs I want to reinstall including mobile shield, etc. I will post back once I get it back to the programs I had before and how it is running!

After the tri-color screen shows up on the phone, how long should it take before the touch pro tells u it is done and u need to soft reset?

[Superman369]

A progress bar should show up. If it doesnt, restart the romupdate utility while your phone is in bootloader(tricolor) mode.

i have unlocked my touch pro! I still cant get it to change roms? After unlocked, i downloaded the rom, then transfered it to the sd disk then installed disk in phone. Did a hard reset, after tri-color shows up on screen.......nothing eles happens! Am i doing something wronge? Im tryin to do it from usb drive, using vista, but after reading a couple of post. Others are complaing that they are having problems tryin to do it using vista, thats why i rather do it from sd drive......again can anyone help.....Thanks.....? P.S.

ya if your doing it from the sd card you have to manually go into bootloader...now sure how to do it on the pro...i think it's power,volume down, and camera and hold it...someone with a pro correct me if i'm wrong....

[elboriyorker]

i never liked doing it that way through sd card.Easier way with no problem is to get a stock rom.Extract the file, remove the "RUU_signed.nbh" from the stock rom.Then download the custom rom of your choose, put that same ruu_signed.nbh from the custom rom inside that folder then run the rom update utility.

easy as 1,2,3

good luck

What does it install if you let it do the customizations, after the three second wait. I don't want windows media player because I've got core player. And I dont want the alltel get mail and games and more and all that shit, so can I avoid those without a custom ROM?

it installs all the programs listed in the thread...you don't have to use all the programs...you can choose...i would personally skip that and manually do it your self.

if your talking the stock alltel rom than if you dont let it customize you wont have any of the alltel stuff including mms...... you will still have wmp since that is built into the rom as the default player.

First I will unlock my phone using the download you provided. Then I will download juicyrom to computer. drag file from comp to windows mobile center ( using Vista ) to RUU (not shure where that is) Run romupdateutility.exe, them follow instructions. Some quick questions? will all the functions still work on phone after install ( gps etc ). Sorry for all the ?

NO, after unlock your phone, you download the RUU (link in first post) to your comp and unrar it. It will then be a folder named RUU. You then download the ROM and place the .nbh file into the newly unrared RUU folder. After that, make sure you are connected to your comp through activsync and have your Personal info backed up( I prefer PIMBackup) and then run the RomUpdateUtility. After that, simply follow the onscreen prompts.

then you must be doin somethin wrong...i just DL the spl unlocker to see if the links were dead....(ppcgeeks).....and i had no problems....you might want to take this issue over there....and no...dont use anyother unlocker except the ones designed for specific phones.

When you use Pim it will save to your internal storage which after flashing does not get erased just the main memory does. After unlocking you wont lose nothing just after flashing a new rom will you lose info

ok ima do that then and after i unlock how do i get the info back? open up pimbackup, and then what? and so theres no way to save the info if when i flash a new rom its all gunna get erased? =/ or pimbackup help me there too?? THANKS in advance

all you would have to do is install the program and use the restore file you made on your card to restore your contacts and texts if wanted.... you will need to install all other compenents including apps and themes all over again....... and please if you have any more questions on pimbackup please ask in that thread so this thread can stay on topic :>

did the rom come in a folder full of files or just the ruu_signed.nbh?? if it came in a folder then no need to download the ruu since he already included it. just connect the device via activesync or place it in bootloader and run the romupdateutility.exe

Wow, dude....pick a thread...seriously. You posted pretty much the same question in 3 differnet threads. And Im getting kinda confused cause there all worded differenty. What is in that folder, if its a bunch of files including a romupdateutility.exe, then your fine. If its just the nbh file, you still need the RUU folder.

than you have to be doing something wrong or have the file named wrong or something since this is the only way i flash my touch pro.... why not jsut use the ruu folder and do it via activesync/mobile device center.

if i got a rom the way i want it and use sprite backup and back it up and flash to a different rom, can i go back to the backed up rom just by restoring through sprite or do i first flash back then restore through sprite.

[Superman369]

No, you never under any circumstances want to restore a complete back up after flashing to a new rom. The backup wil overwrite the current roms registry and just make a mess. When you flash a new rom, only restore your contacts, messages, and appointments. Never a full restore. That makes it pointless to even flash a new rom. If you like your old rom so much, just go back to it.

[gbogart100]

how do I know when flashing is complete? Is it after all the splash screens have loaded and before it asks for all my sceen taps and customizations, or is it before all of that?? Also for some ROMs it says take out the battery for 1 min after flashing and I was wondering exactly when to do that, becasue I'm not exactly sure when a flash is complete...this might be a dumb question, but I'm just wanting to be sure.

I always take my battery out after the RUU says you are "finished", then the phone will start to "reset", I let the first splash screen appear and sometimes let the second one come up to make sure it's going to boot, then I take it out for 1 minute, put it back in, turn phone on, and you are...................as Dashy says..............."GOLDEN", I've been wanting to say that for 7 months!!!

Yeah thats what I was thinkin, except when I tried flashing and I pulled the bettery out after the first splash screen, when I turned the phone on it only went to the first splash screen and then froze...I had to reflash a new rom and just run through all the screens and did a hard reset and everything worked fine for me that way, so I dunno where I went wrong...

[sakuralilies]

I dont' know if this is a stupid question to ask but what does it mean from a stock to custom?

Does stock mean the original phone? or .... ?

[raybond25]

I dont' know if this is a stupid question to ask but what does it mean from a stock to custom?

Does stock mean the original phone? or .... ?
stock would be either

a) the ROM that you had on your phone when you got it
b) a stock ROM that was made for your carrier and released on htc's website

and from stock to custom would be from either of the above to a custom ROM

ok, I have a quick question on this page about the Ruu.zip files. Are these files universal, or am I looking for a specific one if I'm using a Vista computer for the HTC Touch Pro. I see the link for it in the mogul section and in the Touch section, but when I get down to the touch pro, it just says the attached ruu.zip file. If it is seperate, where can I get it from?

I've used the mogul ruu on my pro a couple times. No trouble. But most of ( the good ons anyway) the touch pro roms come with a RUU in it already

call them and tell them that you have a touch pro and you want to activate... dont tell them through a different provider and than give them the hex esn only from the back and they will be able to do it.... you can find the stock rom dump to get all the features and necessary things by using google.... you will also have t change some settings around to get the mms and the internet to work correclty..... take a look at the sprint touch pro on verizon network thread for more details.

Dash,

Quick question. What am I doin wrong that when I am flashing back to Sprint Stock rom from MightyRom...it shows flashed but I can't get the Mighty Rom to go away. It shows on the splash screen and is still on the phone. How do I completely switch back? I tried relocking and doing it, unlocking and using the dump file...Helllpp..

The issue is I can't get my data to work. It keeps showing "Cannot locate remote server" and I can't find any posts that solve that issue so I'm thinking about just sending it back to Sprint for a replacement but I'm trying to get it back to stock before I do that.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Dude.

what are you using to flash stock? the nbh file or exe? if you used exe it should revert everything back to stock, rom and radio and prl.

[rdubb76]

I have been using the nbh file not the exe so that may be the issue I would assume. I got the dump file from ppcgeeks but I may have to get a different one. So the exe file just gets saved on my computer then I run that file, correct?

I was hoping to be able to resolve the data issue without doing this but I may be at the point of no return now.

is ppcgeeks the recommended link to getting the exe?

I'm a rookie at customizing so I appreciate all the advice..keep it coming please...

wait, i thought u were just trying to get mighty's bootscreen off? didn't say anything bout data but anyways..yeah, if it's not posted here then get it from ppcgeeks. just download the exe and run it

[rdubb76]

No, the data thing was a seperate issue. Yes I am trying to get Mighty off the bootscreen and off the rom. When I currently go into "device info" it shows MightyRom.

The data issue was something more technical that I can't seem to resolve even with advance technical support from Sprint.

So my main concern now is getting Mightyrom off so Sprint doesn't see it when they get the phone back.

well, do what i said. find the exe and just run it while device is connected to computer. after that, relock your phone. they will have 2 different ones on ppc. get whatever one u want, i prefer the newer one

first try a hard reset or reflash and if that doesnt work get the stock bootscreen and than rename that welcomehead96 and make it png extension. than once you do that use resco file explorer or total commander to overwrite it in your windows folder and than your done :)

[rdubb76]

Dash / Tweetybear...

Thanks for your help...that did work its back to Sprint Rom...while I was working with the tech support they keep asking for an "update" icon on the Settings tab that now shows up with the Sprint Rom but was not there with the MightyRom..that was what was needed to resolve the "cannot locate remote server" issue.

So I'm hoping now I can get the data working, reflash either MightyRom or Silence 8.5 and the data will continue to work.

Thanks again for keepin the instructions on the re-re level for me..

hey im having a problem with flashing and even unlocking my touchpro....everytime i go to do it it will start to load to the tri color screen and when the screen goes black when its about to change active sync will disconnect..and the rom update wont work...and if im connected to active sync and i press the power button just to turn the screen to sleep mode not off it disconnects then when i turn the screen back on it will reconnect...any idea why?first try a hard reset or reflash and if that doesnt work get the stock bootscreen and than rename that welcomehead96 and make it png extension. than once you do that use resco file explorer or total commander to overwrite it in your windows folder and than your done :)

i'm having the same problem with my vogue. except i thought it was maybe suppose to happen so i tried to finish the unlocking and when i got to the "tap here to set up your phone" thing, start to set up the touch screen and then it started to reboot/reset itself. it just keeps on doing that over and over. i pulled the battery so not to lose power????????????????????

sounds like you dont have the correct radio on your device..... wehn it boots up and the red letters and numbers come up in the bottom right hand corner what does it say next to the R: ?

[ebuzz]

OK, so I finally flashed to the Mighty Rom 4.something and you guys were right, it's a lot easier than I feared. I do have a question, however, when I downloaded the custom ROM and extracted it to its folder, there's like 10 or 11 files in there. I then extracted the RUU to its seperate folder.

But the flashing instructions just say to "drop the nbh file in the RUU Folder" then run the romupdated utility. So if only 1 file (the .nbh file) is in the RUU folder, what happens to the other 10 files that came with the ROM? Do they get loaded to the device?

Also, if I want to flash another custom ROM over the MM ROM then I just follow the same procedure: copy the RUU_Signed.nbh to desktop\RUU;
Place phone in bootloader mode;
open the ROMUpdateUtility.exe

Congrats bro on ur first flash and when it says drop the nbd file in the ruu folder u dont have to drop it in u could just leave it out on desktop and im sure they all get installed ,and yes bro to flash to another custom rom u follow the same easy steps ,when flash back to stock thats different u then follow some other simple steps.

Congrats bro on ur first flash and when it says drop the nbd file in the ruu folder u dont have to drop it in u could just leave it out on desktop

OK, but I actually made 2 folders: 1 called RUU and called ROM and extracted the files to separate folders. So I actually copied the nbh file into the RUU folder from the ROM folder. It seems to be working but idk if its all in there.

I guess u didnt follow directions did u lol hey if it works its ok im sure your phone will be just fine.

[ebuzz]

IDK, maybe not, but I've never actually just "unzipped to the desktop" like the instructions say, I unzip to a folder. What happens when u just unzip to a desktop? :) And I guess it will be fine, but I may get addicted to this flashing thing and want to do it right next time.

When u unzip to desktop all the files come out of the zip to the desktop thats it nothing bad happens and u did fine .

I sell phones and i have alot of phones but none are as nice as the ones that are flashed so i was wondering what do i do to start flashing and what would be a good starter phone to start with as i do not want to blow a 600 dollar htc touch pro in the process of learning so please tell me a good cheap phone that i can pick up if i dont already have one to experiment with and learn the art of flashing thank you! P.s. Is there a incredible hulk flash that i could flash my sprint touch pro with??? I'll be patient thanks sdwyz74

Dash, I followed all the steps for flashing my Touch Pro. I've even read the majority of the post from the bottom to get a better understanding of how it's done. Everything goes smoothly until it hits 44% then it gives me an "ERROR 296: This NBF file cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please get newer NBF file."
Like I said, I followed the instructions step by step and didn't see an NBF file anywhere.

FYI: I'm running off Windows Vista. Is that the problem?

Download File Raphael_CDMA_HSPL_037.zip OR Raphael_CDMA_HSPL_025_MFG.zip

anyone of those should work. should work just fine on vista... make sure your phone has 50% batt life.... if not... put your phone in bootloader and run the unlocker (hardspl)

[BRUNO]

Ok thanks...I'll try that now...although, my battery life is fully charged and while in reboot loader (tri-color) it stated that it was unlocked. Do I still need to download the unlocker?

have you unlocked the device before? you only have to unlock your device once.

[BRUNO]

No I've never unlocked it before, but when the tri-color screen came up under bootloader it stated my phone was unlocked...

[D/\SH]

No I've never unlocked it before, but when the tri-color screen came up under bootloader it stated my phone was unlocked...

doesnt matter, you have to unlock it otherwise the orms will not be flashed and will error out with a invalid vendors code error........ it only takes literally 1 minute to unlock if your slow :)

upload the file to something like rapidshare, megaupload, megashares, mediafile, etc...


i would recommend mediafire though...... they never seem to having any troubles with their servers and the files dont get taken down as often..... or you can even attach to the site.

what a nightmare. im stuck on spl page staring at the red,green blue, white bars. Ive done everything from every web site including trying to flash it from a storage card and its just not working. my ppc says usb but it dosnt register as connected when i use the tools to flash the rom. i disable the activesinc and the titan exitbl dosnt work. i've been messing with this for 5 hours and nada.

OK dammit. here goes my rant and rave. On every web site i went to( and i went to all of them i swear), when flashing from a sd card, they say to rename the nbh file to "TITAIMG.NBH" Well for anyone having a problem with this, dont rename it as such. Rename it "TITAIMG". Its already a nbh file so when you rename it TITAIMG.NBH it comes out on your card as TITAIMG.NBH.nbh. I had a similar problem a year ago when i was messing with my boot up screen. Those on the web kept saying " change the name to "whatever.png" I kept doing it and it wouldnt work. i couldnt figure out why until i looked into the windows and saw that it was being renamed as "whatever.png.png". I cant believe i spent 5 hours trying to figure this out lol. i had to take a break, have a beer and a double shot of jamesons irish whisky, and then i was able to figure out what i was doing wrong. So remember please. Its a .nbh file so just rename it to TITAIMG . And make sure your card is formatted as fat32 ( on home computer, right click it and hit format and change it to fat32)

yup your right on the card but its supposed to disconnect as stated in supermans mogul tutorial already and throughout the thread. as long as your device says usb and not serial you are connected to activesync or device center...... than jsut run the ruu and you would have been straight.

[mjcole2003]

Thanks i tried it that way but for some reason it wasnt working. No worries. from now on i'll just use the sd card. I was having problems yesterday synquing my phone via windows mobile device center. It was connected but wasnt syncing anything. I kept getting an error message.

What error message where you getting ?

[mjcole2003]

it was telling me that it couldnt synq and to close and reopen. I cant remember exactly what the message said but it was along those lines. Then i couldnt see the device in the device manager when i opened it. I was getting a message that no device was detected and to close and reopen over and over. It was a bit frustrating. Thats when i concentrated on doing it with the sd card. today i updated my vista and my device is synqing now though I get this screen now that says my username and password ( which i dont have one set) for active sync. I dont know what thats all about.

You can set your device to sync your email thru activesync on device(configure server) thats the screen your getting..

I should probably take this to another thread or start a new one. I dont have it set to download email but it keeps tellingme to correct my exchange server credentials. it keeps tellingme my username and password are incorrect. The rom i downloaded was verizon so i downloaded a sprint carrier cab hoping that might fix it but it didnt. I'll keep looking and if i dont find i will start a new thread. thanks.

I would check both exchange settings on ur device and on ur computer. i am not quite sure where on vista they are stored; however on xp they are control panel > Mail > Email Accounts.

gotta be kidding!!! who ever is your phone phone provider , that's who you call no one here can help with that here.

[homepro]

That's what I thought. Sprint said it is GSM because Alltel is owned by AT&T. Maybe I should call again to see if someone else there can do it. Otherwise, other option to swap the serial numbers.

Thanks for your help. Are the hex #'s same for Alltel and Sprint or are they carrier specific. Is that why they say they can't activate?

that would depend, who is our carrier or what type of phone do you have, AT&T (GSM) or Sprint (CDMA)?

you can't install the gsm rom on cdma and vise versa, it will brick your phone.

if you have sprint, check out the sss rom. TF3D2 and as well as other goodies.

Ok Ok so i used my current sd card formatted dropped file booted loaded new radio installed. Reformatted and reloaded sd card and put everything back. And as a wise man once said i am now "GOLDEN"
KAOS ROMS ROCK take 2 and 3

Sorry for dbl post wouldnt let me edit my edit lol


Um I think I may have bricked my phone lol here's wht happened:

Tried to flash to sprint 3.35 rom so i could flash to Kaos 3 enhanced for alltel.
Everything went ok until I tried to flash the rom. It got stuck with error 290 then got the bootload screen.

So I tried again (like 3 times) and got the same error. So I tried running the exit bootloader. It soft reset my phone and now im looking at the HTC logo screen saying "no radio" at the bottom. Can't do anything else. BTW I tried removing the battery but to no avail.

One more thing. I ran the executable for the rom but not from the RUU folder. Was that where I messed up?

[tlpalmer01]

did u extract the update from the ruu?

[blackdiamond017]

did u extract the update from the ruu?

Nah, I had the nbh file and put it into the ruu folder. then I ran the unlocker. I don't remember having to extract anything from the ruu

Ok, I think I finally got it. Where I messed up was assuming the bootload screen would go away on its own. At that screen you have to either

1 - run the RUU or Stock Rom
or
2 - run the exit bootloader

I ran the Stock sprint rom 3.35 from bootloader and it worked great! Now I have Kaos Take 3 Enhanced running on my phone. It took a little getting messy but it worked.

Yes. I ran the titan unlocker and got to the bootload screen. I thought it was supposed to go away on its own so i ran the exit bootload then tried to flash the stock sprint rom. It kept crashing at 11% so i soft reset and voila i turned my phone into a brick. lol It was great.....

what edoes it say in the upper right hand side on the bootloader screen? and you did reformat the card and use one 2 gigs or less correct?

what do you mean in the upper right hand corner? you mean the RAPH500? this is what the bootloader screen shows
RAPH500
SPL-0.35.0000
MicroP-Raph(LED) v8182
MicroP-Raph(key) v0682
PSOC-Raph STAGE_EVT v20

i think the RAPH500 means its unlocked right?

maybe verizon locked it down...they are good at doing that...

just tried running it again and it did the same thing...:(

[DenverDev]

From PPCGeeks.........if you are trying to unlock a Verizon Touch Pro, it needs a different Unlocker NOT .37.......They have a .35 specifically for the Verizon Touch Pro...

Ok, I think I finally got it. Where I messed up was assuming the bootload screen would go away on its own. At that screen you have to either

1 - run the RUU or Stock Rom
or
2 - run the exit bootloader

I am by no means the master that D/\SH and so many others are, but, for me, flashing the 6800 via the SD card is definitely the way to go! Very quick and very easy... much less worry than using the RUU.....call me silly but when using the RUU, every time it stops and hiccups, i go into heart failure......using the SD card, it is much faster.....

Just my opinion........

HTH

[m260gt]

dude youre a hero!!!! thanks so much man! its unlocked when it says "SPL-0.35.CMONEX" right?

verizon just has to make everything complicated. thanks again man.

--------- New Post Merged on 17/7/2009 at 01:33:07 --------

got it flashed! NFSfans 6.5 rom. pretty cool. sucks that the verizon TP has like no ram. with nothing open it only has 24.63mb....

[DenverDev]

Glad that it worked out so well for you........I am currently studying the ins and outs of flashing the TP to Cricket and have been doing alot of reading and had already found that......VZW phones are typically easier to flash to Cricket (SPC is already 000000) so i start with them and then work upward to the Sprint (which needs the SPC re-set).......

[blackdiamond017]

hahahhah no troubles let me know how it works for you


Ok so it turns out that in the recent alltel-verizon merger they forgot to carry over my unlimited date plan *genius* so they added it back. I'm gonna try again to flash back to Kaos 3 enhanced and see what happens.

One more question. Why do we have to flash the Sprint rom first? I also found a later version of that sprint stock rom. Should I use that instead?

you need tp unlock the phone and thn flash the rom... are you following the guides we have given you many times already.

[sdwyz74]

yes i read the guides and i have flashed this phone 5/6 times already but when i bought it the ESN was bad but i figured for 40 bucks i could learn and if it burnt up not that much of a loss but today i called sprint and they gave me a big GIFT the CS rep said the ESN is all clear and i checked 3 times so now i'm trying to flash something nice and toss it to my Daughter but when i do it gives error that this rom is not right for the device ?

than it isnt for the device.... are you sure you flashing a rom made for the phone and not a mogul on a touch pro or vice versa?

[sdwyz74]

it's Merdins windows 6.5 it says for mogul

[Superman369]

Are you using the correct RUU folder, not the one you use for your TP. Make sure it is the RUU folder for the Mogul.

[sdwyz74]

well not sure but i got it in the same section i got the rom

[Superman369]

Use this one and let us know.

merdin doesnt make a mogul rom and it says its for the touch pro not the mogul on merdins rom. thats why it isnt working. like stated earlier you have to watych the rom that you are trying to flash

your very right and i'm sorry but i was mistaken it is the kaos take 3 rom that i'm having problems with i tried to flash and i get the error but i will double check as i did get the wrong device error so i will check rom and make sure it has the right ruu folder and flash again and let you know but while i'm here do you have any other suggestions for the mogul? as i ran a search and only came up with a couple!

you got nfsfan (i can get you hooked up would jsut have to send me a pm in the morning for a while, kaos is great, the 6.5 roms out now are working good and there are many others since that was a beast of a phone rom wise.

im new to the whole smartphone business, what exactly does flashing allow

[PHE-NOM]

im new to the whole smartphone business, what exactly does flashing allow

it allows you to put a custom rom....... so pretty much you get rid of the stock rom, and you flash a custom rom which will improve your device's performance.

[junkhead01]

so would like the custom kaos rom on this site need to be flashed

[raybond25]

yes, these are instructions you'd need to follow to flash that rom

the radio isnt going to cause that nd what does it say after that like as a description for the error.... and did you use the search feature? they are stickied in the roms area as well as came right up when i searched for radios. use the feature in the future or you will not make it here or anywhere and thats a promise.

What this does is if you have a NUU_signed.nbf this will let you flash the file. you can use to flash radio or roms. You need this on ur desktop at the time of ur flash

[Kiit408]

the ruu file is the engine that can be used with different cars... depending on the rom or (car) your are trying to use... you put the RUU(engine) with the ROM file (car) in the same folder... and when you double click on RUU when you are synced up with activesync the the ROM will drive off and change all edits to your phone while the engine is keeping your phone from blocking the edits... if you need more clarifying let me know... lol...

[junkhead01]

so i find a rom and a matching ruu, do the people who create the roms also couple them with the respective ruu. And when i am running activesync and installing the rom, which folders do i put this stuff in?

Bro to flash u follow the simple instructions giving on the first post


to flash a stock rom over a stock rom
1. download the rom
2. connect to activesync
3. run exe
4. follow steps on wizard
5. DONE.|

to flash a custom rom from a stock rom
1. unlock your phone using hardspl found here: https://www.wckediden.com/show...titan+unlocker
2. download the custom rom of your choice and download
3. take the nbh file and drag into the RUU folder found here: https://www.wckediden.com/show...ghlight=RUU%2A
4. connect to activesync
5. run the romupdateutility.exe file from the RUU
6. follow the steps of the wizard.


You dont have to put anything in the RUU folder bro u simply download the rom of ur choice once downloaded u take out the nbd file like stated above and drag it out to desktop u then follow the rest if steps and u should be golden ,u will need winrar to do this .
7. DONE.|

[junkhead01]

im confused on what exe ur talking about. I want to do kaos's 420 rom and i went to the file share site and all it gave me was an nbh file. i also downloaded the titan unlocker. so after i run the unlockler what is it that i do exactly

--------- New Post Merged on 23/8/2009 at 10:22:50 --------

i have kaos's 420 nbh file. i really dont know what or were i can get the RUU or how to use it. I ran the titan unlocker and now my phone turns on and resets and i dnt know what to do

[livinlifes2shor]

you want to use the 420 rom and you have the nbh file then you are set. Now all you have to do is read.

https://www.wckediden.com/kaoss-****-sprint-t167673.html?t=167673

just follow the instructions and use the search button some of these guys on here will really jump you for it, but only because it works!

[D/\SH]

whats so hard about the step by step directions? there is no other way to say how this is done.

[junkhead01]

well i found different roms that are actually exe files. 420's has just the nbh file, so what i dont fully understand is where does this nhb file go, i know the instructions say in the RUU folder, but there is none. I use the titan unlocker to get the phone to the bootloader, then i flash the rom coorect, i already have the updated radio so i dont need to flash that, to my understanding. So when im sitting in the bootloader, where do i put this nbh file and how do i get out of the loader w/o the executable?

--------- New Post Merged on 24/8/2009 at 01:28:59 --------

when i downloaded whatever was on koas's thread, all i got was the nbh, so i need the rom, where do i get it?
