Rom flash problem (new..)

This is my first ever Rom flash..
I have a HTC 3600i with WM6..and trying to flash to P3600_WM6_1.1_WWE_ADW_incl_RADIO
As i am trying to use RUU etc...when the PDA is connected to activesync, it shuts off as the RUU tries to update the new ROM....and afterwards I get the 260 error.
How do I stop the USB disconnection?
Or am I missing something important I didn't do?
Thank you...

Which OS are you using? Are you using Vista? If so, follow the instructions here.
I find sometimes my connection disconnects just before its about to update. To get around this I usually put the phone into bootloader mode first, and then run the RUU.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think flashing to the P3600i is possible for the moment. Read on here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328147

I see, but it still doesn't explain why the usb connection disappear as I try to update using RUU...
I'm using XP, i also tried using the SD card method but I just see the three colours when I try to enter the bootloader..
thanks.....

error 00018003 TRINIMG.nbh - FAIL

I am trying to upgrade ROMS. I have the Ollipro boot loader - ALL OK, the Radio ROM I want, ALL OK. When I try to flash a ROM ([P3600i] Karmba_a v10.1 - Diamond [fixed].rar) or (cmE_0.9_beta.rar) or (n0610e_beta_m2d.7z) I get the above error. I am flashing by SD as I do not use Windoze on my PC. Radio's flash this way fine. Would this be the problem?

Hey, i think you have bricked your trin. Read my post also! there is a solution for your problem by making gold card. Haven't luck yet, but i still tried to get my trin working again.

Not sure if my 3600i is bricked as I have the Olipro 3.6 Hard SPL and I can SD-flash any Radio ROM. It is just the ROM it self that fails with the error as mentioned in the topic. Any guidance appreciated!
tchoklat

Hi all,
Most definitely it is not bricked. Been there with my tinity.
On my pda only the WM5 could be installed without the error code (i only could install it from SD, because i have vista on my computer, and even with trying to follow others advice i didn't managed to flash from my computer)
and after something like 6 hours of hard searches and many tries here is my solution:
1.installed Olios's hardspl_120 (tried both 130 and DES):
first i booted om WM5, copied SSPL-TRIN.exe and the hard-spl nbh that i've renamed it to trinimg.nbh, and run SSPL-TRIN.exe, that will get you in the famous tricoloured screen (i don't know why it only installed the hard spl this way, if i try to manually enter the boot with power+camera+the stylus inserted in the reset it didn't installed and i end up with "Upgrade fail" after 1-2% or i got i restart during the flash upgrade).
2. installed the last radio Trinity_Radio-1.50.08.11
the same way like the hard-spl from SD card.
3. installed WM6 ROM
I've taken a WM6 rom (the first that i tried was Mary v3.7) and installed from SD card.
That was it.... success.
After i've managed to put a wm6 rom i've tried wm6.5 rom and worked and a couple of firmwares.
Hope this post will help in need trinity owners, because i was last night very desperate.....and i didn't found any answers, just tried and tried and...... and hope this solution will work for you too.
good luck!

Is it bricked? (Upgrade ROM error)

(I'm not 100% sure this is the correct forum, but since it is very ROM related it didn't feel all wrong to put it in here...)
Hi guys. After som serious flashing of cooked ROMs I decided for some unknown reason that I should try to restore a stock ROM. Now, being very tired as I was, i completely forgott that its probably a good idea to flash a new Stock ROM on the unit BEFORE flashing it with a signed SPL....so I just flashed the Signed SPL to the device. That in it self seem to have gone ok, because when I start the unit it say "SPL-1.15.0000". Problem is though that it also says "Upgrade ROM error, please try again"
Now, what should I do? Have tried put both signed and unsigned SPLs on the storage card and started up via the volume down/pwr button thingy, but that does not seem to do anything. I have also tried to attach the unit to a USB port when in tricolor mode ("USB" shows up on the screen) and tried the CustomRUU program. It finds the device and starts to "upgrade" (grey screen on the device with 0%) but then it just doesnt seem to get any further...
As the device was working fine with a custom ROM before I started all this, I suspect that the main problem proably is that I now have a Standard SPL with a cooked ROM, and that they collide sort of. I, as well as the Blackstone, is now stuck and I am all out of ideas what to do? Have also tried Hard and Soft resets, but that doesnt seem to change anything.
Help!

try removing the SD Card and put the phone into bootloader mode and re-flash the stock ROM! if this doesn't work ... still with the SD Card removed try flashing to USPL and flash the stock ROM again!
hope this helps

You can try USPL on your HD and flash a custom or stock ROM with it.

Thanks for the feedback!
Just be be sure, "into bootloader mode" is when you start the device holding down volume down and powerkey until you see the tricolor screen? Then that is probably what I have tried to do for a while now without success (total success that is, I do get into the tricolored screen)). Or maybe I am doing something wrong, could you perhaps point to a detailed explaination besides the one in "HardSPL" thread?
USPL I havnt tried, will do that! Is it still so that trying to do USPL on Vista is asking for trouble?
I read somewhere that Stock ROMs should only be flashed from internal storage, not SD cards, is that true? If so, how do I go about accessing that storage now when it doesnt show up in the file explorer on my PC (PC recognizes it as USB device, "HTC Sync" but I get no file access to it).

bootloader mode is when you power off the device and hold the volume button down and press power till you get the tricolor screen...
so here is what you need to do .
1. remove the sd card
2. go into the tricolor mode connect your device to the pc and make sure it says (USB) at the bottom
3. run the stock shipped exe from you pc
if that didn't work then you should try the USPL version.. and there is a guide if you are using vista.. i just tried and worked fine.. here it is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3331078&postcount=153
and the reason i'm asking you to remove the sd card because if you have a rom (blacimg.nbh) it won't let you do anything it will try to flash from the sd card and right now you don't want to do that.
and you shouldn't put any rom into the internal storage of the phone..

What happens if you do that? will it try and flash over the flash? Proper *&@! it up?

i don't think anything would happen... the file will get deleted when you flash as the rest of the files in the internal memory

Thank you everyone! The USPL thing solved it, when I did it from a XP machine! The once bricked Blackstone is not alive an kicking again!
About USPL, I saw the workaround for Vista, but downgrading a few components to make it work just doesn't seem like a safe way to do it. And I cant help but to think that it might have unwanted side affects, ie affecting system stability. But maybe I am wrong?

Going back to shipped ROM without bricking?
Hi,
After reading this thread I am now a bit worried and, as a newbie, would appreciate maybe a "simple" answer to my question.
I''ve been experimenting with various cooked ROMs after following the guide in the WIKI for installing HardSPL and then putting the ROM file (BLACKIMG.nbh) on my SD card and installing it using the power on + volume down button method.
However, I now want to revert back to the original "shipped" ROM, which I have downloaded from the list of shipped ROMs via the WIKI (I downloaded the one which closely matched what was originally on my HD - as I didn't know how to backup the actual ROM on my HD at the time).
So, my question:
How should I put the downloaded original/shipped ROM:
RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.3_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship.exe
into my HD without bricking it?! Do I just run it on my PC with ActiveSync enabled or do I need to do something to remove the HardSPL or something first?
Sorry if this has been answered previously but I get confused when a thread just makes loads of references to SPLthis and SPLthat etc.!

if you have the HardSPL already installed on your phone then you don't need to do anything more.. just connect your phone to the pc and let it sync (activesync enabled) and flash to any shipped rom you want by simply running the exe file..

good info that
I read often that it might be solved with one of the following
1. Remove your SD card, run the HardSPL again, then reinsert the SD card with your kovsimg file and it should work
2. reinstall active sync via .msn
3. change the usp port and the data cable
4. disable firewall and antivir
...
But item 1 is reportedly the main reason for most of the error 260 connection failures.
good luck

i believe my problem it had something to do with the SPL the rom its locked with the StockSPL that not allowing the update to happen or to get unlocked with the HardSpl

Have you ever tried to put your phone into the bootloader mode and try to hardSPL again?
Are you currently using win XP? Don't use Win 7 or Vista.

[Q] Flashing TD2 (Topaz) stays at 0% help please!!!

Hi all
I really need some help please!!
I think I have read and searched and tried steps by step all the posts and threads on this, none of them work for me,
Ive flashed my HD2 & TD2 with HSPL, radios and roms many times in the past. I have a stock rom on my TD2, (havent flashed a cooked one yet but did on my HD2 and worked great),
the problem is when I try flash anything, (HSPL,Radio's and Roms)
I connect with WMDC on windows ultimate 64x and go through all the steps, the phone disconnects from WMDC when loading the tri-color screen, and installs the HTC sync drivers fine, and then (my problem) it hangs on 0%. this happens regardless of what I'm flashing after a while brings up the communication errors 208 & 260. this doesnt have any effect on the software HSPL or radio as a soft reset returns back to the homescreen just fine. I am running HSPL 1.8.3. , radio 4.49.25.17 and a shiped stock wm 6.5.
This is what Ive tried so far:
I have used 3 different micro USB cables,
updated my .net fx to 4.1
I have tried different Ruu's such as custom Ruu, Ruu from topaz, Ruu, supplied with Hspl, flashes center and KaiserCustomRUU.exe and a few others.
Ive tried the white screen fix many times. including the SDA unlocker and stuff.
I ve tried manual and automatic.
tried entering the the Tri-color screen manually and via the Ruu.
I tried different computers and different operating systems (W7ultimate and XP 32Bit and 64Bit)
tried active sync WMDC 6.0 and 6.1
Ive removed the SD card and sim and have tried flight mode
Restarted pc's mobile any reinstalled WMDC many times.
Ive tried renaming to the HSPL, radio and Rom to TOPAIMG.nbh , put 1 by 1 on formated fat32 SD card, run from Tri-color menu. all of them just hang on
loading....
Have tried mixing and matching Ruu's with HSPL's, Roms And radios and everything else i can think of, after 18 hours of this I am fed up and decided i need some help
Thanx in advance

can some1 please help on this?

ok
i have now download the official RUU_Topaz_S2_HTC_WWE-AFK_2.53.421.3_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.44etc.25.35_4.49.25.91_Ship.exe Rom
and it worked with no problems.
it updated my HSPL from 1.83 to 2.51 and radio version to 4.49.25.91 which was exactly what i was going for.
The problem now is that i still cant change my HSPL, RADIO or flash a custom Rom which is what I need. it hangs on 0% and now gives me a 262 error which states that:
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.
which is not true as if a reboot it doesn't continue the update and just returns to the home screen as normal

Does your device is CID/SIM Locked? If yes you may have to try this first:
Diamond 2 CID/Security/SIM Unlocker. And then HSPL.
