I tried to update my 8125 from 1.08 to 2.25 using the HTC official release last night and now I'm stuck at the bootloader screen with the rainbows on it. The update got stuck at 56% for a good 20 minutes before I decided that maybe it wasn't gonna move at all. So I disconnected it and now I'm getting errors at 56% every time I try to run the update. Can some one please show me which file I need to download and how to create an SD bootup media? I've read the other threads but I still don't understand what files are needed and how to initiate the booting from the SD card. Thanks in advance.
I was able to upload a ROM to the phone and now it works. However, I still can't update all ROMs. The only two I've been successful to get to work are version 2.08 and the Shogun ROMs. Every time I try to put in the official HTC ROMs I get a recovery error. Tried this on different computers and different downloads. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, first of all let me begin by saying that I have spent a long time reading around through the guides and forums about flashing rom/radio to my Rohdium but still face problems. I have successfully flash my old TyTN II and Orange E650 but am at a loss as to why Im struggling this time round!
I flashed the Hard SPL which went 'fairly' smoothly, got there in the end after having problems on WIndows 7 64bit and then succeeded using Xp 32. However when trying to flash a new rom and/or radio I am greeted with an error, that being Error 284. I have tried like I say on Win7 64, Xp32 and when the error pops up my phone gets stuck on the process bar and forced to pull battery out. I then put it back in and it freezes on bootloader. The RUU software trys to recover but it is a loop of the same thing happening (attempts and then crashes). The only way to get out of this mess was strangely reflashing HardSPL which recovers it and allows me to boot to Windows. I have tried flashing a radio and/or rom whilst in sync within windows, I have tried flashing when manually forcing the phone to enter bootloader, I even paid the £10 to get the unlocker which would patch the special radio but that even returns the same error. I have the sim card out and storage card, battery charged over 50%. I even tried the Mtty program (sorry if mispelled, at work now and can't fully remember name!) when it was stuck at bootloader and using the "boot" command it boots as far as Touch Pro 2 logo but then doesn't progress, then i resorted to reflashing HardSPL which allowed me to boot properly. I just don't know what else to try!
Like I said Im sorry if this is obvious to someone but I have tried alot!
Many thanks in advance if someone could help!
* Update: Just tried flashing a radio on my works computer (XP 32) and it flashed no problem!? Wonder why my operating systems had an issue?
** SOLVED! ** - got home and randomly tried again on Win7 64 without using my USB extension cable and plugged into a different USB port directly and it worked! Faulty cable maybe, bad luck, who knows, it works!
Thanks.
Sound like maybe your RUU/update utility may have gotten corrupted. I would try to re-download the rom you want to flash over to your home pc again and try to re-flash.
If that doesn't work, you can always flash your rom through the storage card.
hmmm yea thats possible, will try when I get back in couple of hours thanks! Just seemed weird how nothing was working, different roms (cooked roms or shipped roms) and even the security/sim unlocker that I purchased......mystery!
USB cable tends to go bad easily! That might be the reasion why!
Hi, guys.
I became recently an owner of AT&T Tilt. I got it with KaiserTouch (two months old release) and I wanted to flash the newest version. But there is the problem.
I downloaded the newest release, connected the phone with my computer, started the KaiserCustomRUU.exe and when the installation is about to begin, it just hangs on 0%?! And the computer shows the error 262, or something like that.
I tried ALOT of times and it's always the same.
Tried flashing from an SD card, but it just shows "Loading..." and hangs there until I take the battery out.
Then I succeded flashing the official ROM with KaiserCustomRUU and now I'm stuck on 6.1 AT&T ROM. Won't flash ANY of the cooked ROMs. :/
Tried to flash HardSPL with both methods and the things are the same (hangs at 0%, hangs at "Loading...")...
So, PLEASE help me!
Edit: My SPL says: SPL-3.56.0000
Edit 2: Made it! HardSPL wasn't installed. So I installed HardSPL 3.56 and it worked! Installed the cooked rom without problem from SD card!
lol How bizzare. I asked the question and I answered it in the same post. Sorry for this.
I'm trying to flash just released ROM for Tilt 2 (http://www.htc.com/us/support/tilt-2-att/downloads/) from ATT. It freezes and reboots itself around 6% down. How this can be fixed? I have HardSPL on.
I just flashed it last night with no problems. I'm not sure but I think it is just restarting the device to send it to the bootloader screen and then it will finish flashing the ROM. Mine did it at 7%. Is it completely stopping? You might give it a few minutes to resume. I did notice that it took a long time to flash (probably all the bloatware they cram in the ROM).
FYI, you don't need a HardSPL since you are flashing an AT&T ROM on an AT&T phone. But, it shouldn't matter either way.

Oh. I thought reboot at 7% was unexpected since previous ROM flashes would never reboot in the middle of upload. I'll give it another try and assume first reboot is expected. Thanks.
yeah, the official rom always stuck at around 7% as I think it was doing some sort of formating of the memory (like task29). Then it will reboot and continue to flash it afterwards, so give it a bit time.
also to be safe, it's good idea to reboot your pc before you flash.
Nah, not task29, but first it flashes SPL_Signed.nbh containing SPL and Radio, reboots into new bootloader and flashes now RUU_Signed.nbh containing everything .
I've done many flashes before. Maybe 1 too many (if possible???). I just flashed it and it seems to be stuck at the "update in progress..." screen, but it's at 99 -100% and it hasn't moved. I reflashed it 3 times and it's still stuck at this stage. I already HardSPLed it and i'm using energy rom. Do you guys have any idea what could be wrong? could it be because i flashed my phone too many times? i think i flashed it a total of 25+ times because after a certain point the phone starts to glitch up so i need a new flash... and i also like to keep updated..
please help! thank you in advance!
btw, I'm flashing via sdcard
Try RUU
Dear friend,
I had the same situation with my old Tytn II.
This is my recommendation:
If you have already done the HARD Spl,which is great,now do the following:
Go to the OFFICIAL HTC site and grab the latest stock 2.07 ROM.
Download it and you will get the RUU with it. RUU ( Rom Update Utility). Updating with RUU usually solves many problems when phones stuck at boot or whatever.
Follow the instructions in RUU and flash stock ROM.
But BEFORE you do anything,REMOVE that SD card with Energy ROM on it.
Please let me know if I was helpful.
Good luck,
Alexander.
Hello All,
I was following the guide here, and came across a problem when trying to use Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex, opened the ROMUpdateUtility.exe. Once I click Yes to running Bootloader.exe my device freezes, is there any way around this?
Thanks,

Having issue with the RUU
I've been trying to get the Tael ROM using the guide (here), but I needed to use the Hard SPL package to flash it.
I used the RUU from the HTC site (5.11 or something) before I found this site and ever since then, I can't flash Energy or any other ROM to the SD card or the actual drive of my HTC Fuze.
On to my problem.... Any time I try and use the RUU from OliNex, I either get Error 246 (Device Not Responding) or 262 (Update Error). I've done the bootloader thing (power + volume + soft reset), and nothing works. I've removed the SD and SIM card, like it said to. I've tried to trouble shoot from the original thread about TAEL and googling, but no luck.
Any help? I'd really like to flash different ROMs to my Fuze
TOTAL NEWB STATUS - soooo be easy please
**Edit/Revise**
Looked through the site and found the "Tutorial/How-to's/etc" thread (here) and downloaded all the different RUU's. Tried the one signed to OliNex, didn't work. Tried the other ones, nothing worked. Did it with &without the SD and SIM card. Still nothing.
When I run any of the RUU's and it runs the progress bar, it only runs on the computer and not my Fuze. Getting really frustrated with this... So far only able to run Android through SD card, and the battery life barely works on that (5 hours on idle). Hopefully I can get some help from somebody.
did you tried reset your phone?
press the reset button under stylus slot..
hope it helped..
