i was installing WM5 on my wizard when it gave an error at 85% and stopped. only starts in bootloader but wont install a new one. whats the solution?
thanx
Well... we'll need a little more info in order to help. What is your current ipl/spl? What ROM were you trying to upgrade to? Did you get any kind of error message when the RUU stopped?
was 2.24
and i wanted higher so i downloaded one of the O2 roms
ruu gave a "file not good for ur fon" kinda error
Well.... get into bootloader mode (press the voice button while starting the device until you get the three colored screen) and you can flash the original rom again.
Did you CID-unlock your device first? No? Read read read before flashing again. Start at the sticky.
thing is, how do i flash the fon in bootloader mode?
If you connect it to the pc it will say USB at the bottom of your device screen. You can just flash at this point. No need for activesync. If no USB appears on the screen than you're not in bootloader mode.
ruu says no connection cos it always tries to check the current version first.
Just got my Trinity today, and have successfully unlocked it using pof's unlocker. I unlocked the SIM lock and the CID lock, so it's now SuperCID.
I want to put WM6 on it, the LVSW version. I've downloaded the three files in the sticky post. Before I do it, I want to check that I'm understanding it right, because I'm a bit confused with version numbers.
So...
1) First, I need to HardSPL by running the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" file from the Hard-SPL.zip file, yeah? I ran this (but didn't flash it) and was confused because the new "Image Version" was 1.20 whereas the Image Version shown in the "current image" bit was 1.24.xxx. Usually, going backwards is bad but I may be misunderstanding.
2) I then need to flash the Radio ROM to 1.41 - why do I need to do this? I guess I run the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" from the GSM_xxx_xx file, right?
3) Finally, I need to flash WM6 - by running the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" file from the WM6 zip.
Is that right?
Just tried to flash both the HardSPL and the Radio ROM, and the ROM Update Utility always craps out after I select "Yes" to the security prompt on the Trinity.
"ERROR 246 DEVICE NOT RESPONDING" is displayed in the update utility. Any ideas?
Also, if I go to the bootloader manually (holding down the buttons) the version numbers are:
TRIN100
IPL-0.50
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.0000
But when I let the ROM Update program enter the bootloader, these are shown instead:
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
What does it all mean? Very confusing! It won't let it update anyway, when I select "Yes" to the security prompt, the screen goes black, the ROM updater throws up the error 246 and then the Trinity shows the bootloader.

SPL by Des is a one time only SPL called SSPL-TRIN.exe, it's somewhere on this board. Sometimes it's baked into a ROM too ... it fakes the SPL.
HARD SPL stays on your phone .... doesn't need SPL by Des anymore.
Windows needs some time to switch from Windows CE to the bootlader driver. This can cause an error ...... just start the exe file again on the PC.
Another common flash error is with Vista, then you need to overwrite the default driver when you're in the bootloader. The driver is in "VistaRUU.zip"
Relaunch the Hard-SPL, then the radio ROM and after that LVSW or mUn's ROM.
There is a file you extract called EnterBootLoader.exe
I copy this to the Memory card.
Then before I run the update I run this on the memory card.
The phone goes to the boot loader and then once windows has re-detected it I run the update.
This seems to have eliminated all problems I've ever had flash updating.

I just tried this, but Windows doesn't seem to want to detect the presence of the device when I do. ActiveSync reports that nothing's connected.
Well I've got the Hard-SPL and Radio ROM to flash - instead of leaving ActiveSync connected I just went into the bootloader manually and did it that way.
But now I'm trying to flash WM6 and it gets up to 8% and then craps out with Error 286 - communication errors.
The device now won't boot past the bootloader
What do I do now?
Bloody hell. It's amazing, it really is.
I had it plugged into my USB hub.
Took it out and plugged it directly into the PC, just on the off-chance that the hub was screwed up.
It's all working fine now, I think!
Typical. Thanks for the assistance anyway guys.
Nps. Glad you got it sorted
Is the USB Hub powered? If not that will cause a ton of problems!
It's supposed to be powered, but I'm starting to think that the power supply might be faulty!
hi guys,
2 questions if i can;
1)What is HardSPL?
2) Why are there 3 steps to getting WM6? why can I not use the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" file from the WM6 zip straight away?
Thanks a lot!!
Same Problem as GazChap
Hey All,
I was having the exact same problem as GazChap with the same configuration to start out with.
This is what I did:
1)plug in my p3600 to the USB
2)let synchronize, and hopefully finish, otherwise stop it
3)run HARD-SPL; this usually freezes after the first go and stalls in the bootloader
4)run HARD-SPL again; this time it will finish. You will have to turn on your machine again after this.
5)run AX3L ROM 2.0.8.2; this ALSO usually freezes after the first go and stalls in the bootloader
6)run the ROM again; This time its gonna work...
Now it works..
brick time
I loaded the hard spl succesfully. I could not get the radio upgrade to load no matter what I did. My instructions said it was optional, so I went directly to the WM6 rom exe load and it has a perpetual communications error after about 8% even though the WM6 loader says each time that recovery is successful. I have a tricolor screen (bootloader?) on my 3600 which won't respond to anything I have thought of yet. Anything I can do other than pitch it? Help! And thanks in advance.
ok, just want to make it short: (P3600 user)
1. I have WM6.1 ROM (FleNover 3.3 Black edition) installed.
2. When I want to downgrade to WM6 official, after 20% it goes error.
3. Now, it only shows 3 colors.
4. Here is my PDA information in 3 colors:
TRIN100
IPL-1.00
TRIN100 MFG
SPL-1.30.Olipro
5. When I want to upgrade with WM6 official, after my PDA shows the progress bar, it restarted and the update screen shows Error 286.
6. How do I fix it?
thank you very much

Put your phone into its bootloader and try to run USPL.exe. Did you remember to disable antivirus?

Thanks. I did disable the antivirus. still not working.
Yesterday I tried orange ROM 'OrangeUK_HTCTouchHD_1.59.61.2_Radio_52.64.25.34_1.14.25.24_Ship_phone_software', hoping it would make the phone working. The update was successful, but the same problem.

Try to install a newer version of the HSPL.
If you can't get USPL to work, have you tried HSPL? Your using a rom based on 1.56+ so you'll need to use HSPL 1.56
I just tried HSPL. I followed the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377. Flashing for dummies. When I run the first step 'HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex', it sits on 0% for long time and finaly came up with error msg. I tried the option 'recovery', but no use. I have done a hard reset. Still same position where it started. . I'm very sad now..

What error message do you get? There should be an error code eg 260 or 262 etc. The different errors have different meanings and different solutions to fix them.
Update error (262). The ROM Update Utility has encountered a communication error during the update process.
I thought I could do the manual option. But hd doesnt go beyond the first windows screen.

ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR
This error occurs during the CE ROM code upgrade process. If this happens, you can just soft reset the device and run RUU again. The update process will then continue. At this stage the rom on the device is incomplete and it will not boot back up into Windows. You will need to place it into the bootloader to continue.

Try to reboot and try to rerun a few times. If this doesn't work you will need to run the manual sspl.
Troubleshooting - manual SSPL
* Boot up your phone.
* Copy SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe to your phone. In a file browser on your phone browse to where you copied SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe and run it.
* Your phone will reboot into its bootloader and should show SPL v 1.07.OliNex.
* When it shows USB at the bottom then run HSPLWrapper_blackstone_156OilNex.exe from your computer again.
* If bootloader now shows 1.56.olinex you can then flash to your new rom.

When you say you tried the manual solution is this what you meant. You may need to reflash to your stock (original) rom first and then run manual sspl from there.
As this is now becoming a flashing problem, please post further responses in the Dummies Guide thread and I'll help you there. This thread will probably be closed soon.

Hi all!
first of all sorry for my Egnlish
I tried to perform task29 on my HD and get an error "Invalid vender ID", in some guides i read that in this case I should use a stock .nbh files... I tried the .hbn file from HSPL thread from one of restore_stock_spl* zip files. task29 was performed normally. When I turn on device I can see the clear smart mobility screen only with "smart mobility" words in center. bootloader now showing me 1.54 Olinex version. Before task29 this version was 1.56.
And from this moment I can't do anything with device: I can't flash any rom or radio. When using RUU after three-colour screen device shows me a progres indicator which suspends on 0% and RUU progress is also 0%. after waiting some time RUU shows an "262 Update erorr". When I'm trying to flash ROM or radio from SD card I see the three-colour screen then grey screen "loading... No image file!!!" and then again the three-colour screen. It shows so fast that it looks like a screen blinking and almost impossible to read what is written on grey screen.
I have spend 3 days while looking for different files and flash packages, have read a guides and I'm at a loss.
Please helpme to make my HD work again!

Have you tried flashing stock rom which came with your device?
I have tried .nbh file from "HTC Stock ROM_BLACKSTONE_1.14.401.3 (22273) WWE.zip"
if it possible tell me what exactly should I download and how to use it, I'll try. I'll try everything you advise, because I didn't find solution myself and don't know what esle should I try. first of all where should I start? do I need to perform task29 correctly or do I need to restore HSPL to 1.56 version, or flash a stock rom?
* Dont connect your phone to your computer.
* Hold down the Volume down button and hit the power button.
* Your entering the tricolor boot screen and at the bottom the word "Serial".
* Now connect you phone to your computer with te USB cable the word serial disappear and now it says USB.
* Now you can normally flash/update your phone and please use hspl.
I had before a HTC Diamond. On that device I used to run "task29" until that command killed my device. Almost same as you, I could flash the device but I couldn't boot normally. My ROM memory probably got damaged for good so I had to replace the device with a new one. My suggestion to you: on a new device never use that command again and you will be fine.

it's terrible, hope my devise still alive...
There is one detail I didn't mentioned... If download task29 package and just simply execute task29.exe (using .nbh from this package) progress on device goes forward to 4% and then "Invalid vender ID" error occurs... So I think I should use another .nbh file but which one?. Hope this checking of vender ID is not that 4% of progress and some actions with device memory really starts...

Try using a radio nbh for blackstone.
The original package, contains nbh for the LEO
thanks all of you for replay but I still need a help very much.
there are ways that I have tried
1. flashing rom/radio from SD card
2. flashing rom/radio using RUU
3. task29 using different .nbh files
4. install/restore HSPL
In the first way always hapens same thig: I turn off the device, turn it on, press volume down button, see tricolor bootloader screen, then for a very short time (less than second) i see a grey screen and there is written: "loading... No image file!!!", then i see tricolor bootloader again.
I tried different rom/radio files (it was "HTC Stock ROM_BLACKSTONE_1.14.401.3 (22273) WWE" and other roms I flashed before and different versions of radio files from thread int this forum).
for the RUU using ways I always get two situations: I turn off the device, turn it on, press volume down button, see tricolor bootloader screen, connect the devise to PC, execute RUU/taks29/HSPL/Restore_SPL, then press next a few times, then i see the progress in RUU and on device screen and there is two endings:
1. progress goes up to 4% and devise making a soft reset, load the black smart mobility screen with no orange version characters on screen bottom, RUU shows "Invalid vender ID";
2. progress suspends on 0% and after some timeout RUU shows "Error [262] Update error" and now changes on device screen.
last what I have tried: execute task29 with last hd radio 1.17.25.09 file and got invalid vendor id error, then execute task29 with radio 1.09.25.14 file and got update error.
my be this holds some information: in my bootloader is written following
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
what should I do?

Hmmm... I want to know, what .nbh file did you include in the task29 folder you have? Remember, you must to copy a radio ROM to your task29 folder and name it as RUU_signed.nbh, don't copy an OS ROM to task29 as this will give problem.
From the information above, seems you had restore to original SPL? Try flash HSPL or USPL. If you have any problem flashing, you can ask in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
Good luck, my friend. Cheers.
Agree with philrom: you are an the stock SPL. So, flash HSPL, then you should be fine.

Yes. Sorry I forgot to post the ending of this story...
I didn't understood about flashing HSPL in formated device... I was really tired of using different ways and flashing different roms... I just took my device to a not official service center (there is no Touch HD for my country). There guys said me that I need to flash a stock rom of my HD birthplace country. They found out that it was shipped from Arab Emirates, than they found a required ROM and flash it. It cost me 50$. Now I'm using my HD as usual.
Thank for the replays!!!
Glad you got it resolved
