I tried it but I have :
=== Trinity splxploit by pof - pof[at]eslack[.]org
=== Exploits stack overflow on HTC Trinity SPL
[] SPL file: TRIN_HardSPL.nb
\\.\\WCEUSBSH001: No such file or directory
cannot connect to \\.\\WCEUSBSH001
My ActivSync USB connection is disabled just like they ask!

hmmm... i'm not too sure about this one.. have you tried just flashing hard-spl or something while you're in bootloader screen?
also, sometimes it takes trying more than once to get splxploit to do its thing.. Is there a message with the 260 error? i can't remember which one the 260 is

I tried to install the HardSPL but still the same error : ERROR 260 : CONNECTION ERROR !!!
My usb cable is conected

When there is the "connection error 260" close the upload application and try to relaunch the installing file without deconnecting your usb cable from your ppc.
Besides, in the bottom of the bootloader screen (the white part), it must be written "USB", not "Serial".

It's it was just my ActivSync driver ! I have update it and now it's working.
Thank you for your answers !

First off...what version of active sync did you update to? Second....what if the white part of my bootloader screen doesn't say "usb" or "serial"?

I have had the same issue and for some reason only Ro update issue 3.14.4.1 seems to be able to connect to my phone too...
Expolit no longer sees my phone after upgrading to Mary Rom 1.2,
Some one else on here may be able to assist with these details...
I am using vista but my xp machine is the same too

There's a slight syntax error in the prog. Just edit the unbrick.bat file, and replace \\.\\WCEUSBSH001 at the end by \\.\WCEUSBSH001 (one less '\'). Did it today after experiencing exactly what you did, worked perfectly, now running just fine with new loader, new radio, new ROM
1) manually start in bootloader mode
2) disable USB in activeSync
3) check 'usb' appears at the bottom of the tricolor screen and that he device is recognized by XP. If not, try unplugging/repluging
4) run the corrected unbrick.bat
5) while still in (new) tricolor screen after loader update, upload a new ROM (might have to reactive USB in activesync, don't remember)
It worked just fine for me, after quite a scary day when I couldn't get anything from my device but 'connexion' errors or 'corrupted image' errors
Cheer up, everything's gonna be fine

Hi.
I've got windows Vista, and i have the same problem. How can i solve my problem?
I already downloaded all the updated software...

Bootloader reads "Serial" and not "USB"
I am using Kamba_a 6.2 EN, and I can not flash at all my trinity. When it goes to the bootloader, reads "Serial" and then freezes. I've tried to flash the bootloader also, but always get at the end a "CONNECTION ERROR". What should I do?

If you have HardSPL (Olipro 1.20, Olipro 1.30 or Des' Crash Proof) installed, check this and this.

First of all, thanks for your attention. I've been going through all the related links starting from those you sent. The CID on my trinity is HTC__001, and I can't find any cooked ROM with such CID so I can flash from the miniSD. By the other hand, the white strip of my bootloader reads "Serial". Is there any way I can change that to "USB". Otherwise, all the other ROMs I'm trying are giving me the same 206 communication error.

To whom it might be useful: My bootloader was giving me only Serial connection, and I couldn't make any flash. It ended up being the USB Cable!!! The bad one let me sync, upload/download files, everything exept flashing.

Every WWE ROM available here is HTC_001 CID. So you can flash any WWE ROM with the RUU or by SD.
As for the Serial issue, connect the Device to the PC with the USB cable an it will change to USB.
Be shure to read the Bible first!!!

Error 246 Device not responding

I'd bought my htc p3600 pro (black, free from sim-lock & free from any carrier) from London.
As advised by TRINITYGUIDES.INFO site I tried to do HardSPL with all the three available HardSPL files, but of no avail.
When the HardSPL's progress bar comes(on pc) it gives a message on my phone " Enterbootloader.exe....This may harm your device...Do you want to continue.." I pressed yes & the process stopped & gave an error on pc "Error 246 Device not responding" & on phone screen showed the bootloader with
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
I did soft reset on my p3600 & its working as usual with it original spl infos.
I want to put official WM6 SEA version(ROM+RADIO) on my phone...Please help.

I too have the same message when I try to upgrade to hard spl as per teh guide here: http://trinityguides.info/index.php...ask=view&id=25&Itemid=66&limit=1&limitstart=2
Can anyone help? I have tried updating active synch... could there be anything else?
I have flashed my rom befroe to unlock the GPS but I now want to upgrade to WM6.
I guess the hard spl is a failsafe and I can skip this step?
Thanks

Have the same [Error 246]! How can I definitly fix it?
Hi,
first of all, sorry for my poor English. I try to explain my problem so good I can... I hope you can help me.
I have the "[Error 246] Device not responding" problem.
I have used a lot the "search"-function and I have found a lot of posts which propose the same solution "restart the Rom upgrade another time". Ok I did it and my PDA works very well, but now I would like to solve the problem radicaly... How can I solve this problem? Should I use SPLexploit (I have found the guide on trinityguides.info) and then reflash a Hard-Spl?
Thx a lot

Before flash manually enter bootloader. After start the rom update utility. (As www.trinityguides.info suggest). You will not get error 246 any more

Here is written to flash rom you should manually enter to bootoader. In this case, you will not have error 246.
Most of the people know this, so they have not this problem
Those who not manually enter bootloader can get error 246, and this way of flashing is not as safe as the manual bootloader way.
(because in this case you use the spl uploaded by RUU, not the hard-spl on the PDA)

Ok, now I really understand
Ok, this is a very good anwser, short and clear... thanks...

Hi Me has the trinity 3600 as a VPA GPS vodafone branding, and i get the same error message trying to run the bootloader and entering tricolor screen, ---> error 246 aber manually starting into bootlaoder and restatrting the romupdateutil.exe same error 260 no connention...
So you guys have a working version of the updating ?
And please remove all the links which are not working, linking a solve for the 246 problem, there are nomore links available...

Dome

I found a way to solve the problem 246 go in you mobile device, -->start -> settings-> connections ->USB to PC open this. Remove the hook @ Advanced networksettings activation! ---> click OK--> close
try again the bootloader etc, then on the tricolore reboot screen is shown USB in the lower white field and the bootloader can do its routine complete.
Have Fun with flashing the phones!

Please HELP. SPL 1.09 and stuck

hi guys,
i was excited about the new Radio upgrade, so i tried to flash it. i got an error, because my SPL is 2.05. so i tried to unlock the phone using jerpelea's guide, flash to 1.09 -->success, then WWE (1.10) but an error occured saying invalid vendor ID during WWE flash. now i have SPL 1.09 on my phone and my phone is stuck on the 2nd boot screen of jerpelea's WM6.1 beta 4 ROM. my phone is fully unlocked using jerpelea's unlock guide, that's how i got to install SPL 1.09 successfully. how can i recover my phone? please help.
Update 1: i tried to flash back the original dopod 595 WM5 ROM. i mixed the RUU updater from the latest official ROM with the nbh from dopod WM5 ROM. the flashing works. when it's 100%, the phone reboots and, i got back to the same problem. stuck at 2nd/3rd boot screen. i now have IPL-0.90 and SPL 1.09 on my phone. Please help me to recover my phone. i've tried to hard SPL shown in the wiki guide, doesnt work. says invalid vendor ID crap. i really dont know what to do now.
Update 2: when the device boots, it stucks on the 2nd/3rd boot screen and if the USB cable is attached, for a brief moment, windows can detect the phone and i can even browse the content of the phone from my PC. but after that, the device disconnects itself and just remain stuck at the 2nd/3rd boot screen. the device appears to be totally freezed/hang. even the LED charging indicator will not turn off when i unplug the device from computer
i believe what i need to do now is to make a nbh image that is signed to i dont get any corrupted image message when trying to flash. i used HTC ROM editor to mix and match the SPL and IPL file so that i can downgrade the SPL to 2.05 and upgrade it again later. but i dont know how to sign nbh files.

If i were you I'd use this one =)

is there a ROM editor that works for meteor? can someone please suggest one that can be used to sign the nbh file.
jerpelea, or futureshock, please help

not good news
I think I know what do you mean. My device was in very same state like yours few mnonths ago.
Try to run mtty and the command "info 2" without quotes.
Do not forget to disable USB on activesync settings before running mtty.
You will get an answer which includes the CID of your device.
If not (this was my case), you have to send it to the repair center probably.
My device CID was Qtek_A07 (RUS) and I have tried to instal the first official WWE 1.34 ROM update (combined from SPL.nbh and ROM.nbh) and it replaced only the SPL, and the ROM update crashed.
There was not way out so I sent it to the repair center.
The WWE images are expecting the device with CID Qtek_Z12.

If you bothered to read the Wiki, you would have seen this:

If you can't bother to read the wiki, don't play with roms!
Actually, I did read that, and a couple of problems:
1) Boot Loader is 1.09
2) OS won't load, so can't use any of the ActiveSync-based methods for downgrading to an older version, such as 1.04.
3) CID appears to be corrupted, as per the earlier output pasted.

As a n00b I know how hard it is to understand what’s happening. I did read the wiki’s and still I didn’t get HOW TO upgrade a ROM until I found a great post in FutureShock’s thread
darkDirk said:
First of all:
It's fantastic what you are doing with wm6.1 and the Breeze, Futureshock !
I am new and trying to upgrade it myself, but at first I didn't have any luck.
Here is a simple newby step-by-step manual:
- Download and extract a MTeoR-FutureShock-WM61-xxxx.x.rar
- Check your Mteor battery in more then 50 % full
- connect the Mteor to the computer via usb and check if Activesync works
- go with DOS (cmd line) to the directory and start runme.bat
- On the Mteor press camera and powerbutton at the same time.
- then immediately press any key on the computer to continue the batch script.
- now you should see the 3-color bootscreen
- press any key to start the rom-update program and follow its directions.
When the update is finished (in less then 5 minutes), then wait untill the first boot is complete.
If you don't get the 3-color bootscreen or you the update on the Mteor stays on 0 % and the rom-updater displays an error, try testing this:
On the Mteor start the explorer and in the root directory (press UP once) find SSPL.EXE en start it.
If the Mteor won't start the program and there is an error like "insufficient trustlevel".
You need to remove the application lock on your Mteor.
Run SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe on your PC with Activesync working and then install SP_AllowCertificateInstall.cab on the Mteor.
You will find those two in the .rar in ".\opt Software\Unlock Tools"
Then redo from the start.
Then, Have fun !! (Futureshock & DarkDirk)
P.S. works on a BREE100 with IPL-0.90 and SPL-2.05.

But I still do not know what SSPL, SPL, IPL or whatever there is does to me or/and the phone.
Anyway. Thanks for all the work.

i did try to read as much as i could but apparently i didnt come across that. when i flashed to SPL 1.09, the device booted up just fine. it is when i try to update to WWE 1.10, the update process failed and bricked my phone. for your information, i was following the exact steps described by you in your unlocking/SSPL guide. you mentioned upgrade to SPL 1.09, then WWE 1.10. this is exactly what i did. i dont know what went wrong. im sure if im as knowlegable as you are, i wouldnt have screwed up my phone. my bad.
just to be fair, your method did work when i updated my dopod 595 (WWE device) to your WM6.1 beta 4 ROM. but i never upgraded my SPL to 1.10. i only thought of upgrading SPL when you posted the new radio release and that's where i screwed up.
anyway, what is important here is, is my phone unrecoverable? im reading the links you posted as i type, and i'll give the methods. maybe based on your experience, you could suggest some ways to do it. thanks.

i did try to read as much as i could but apparently i didnt come across that. when i flashed to SPL 1.09, the device booted up just fine. it is when i try to update to WWE 1.10, the update process failed and bricked my phone. for your information, i was following the exact steps described by you in your unlocking/SSPL guide. you mentioned upgrade to SPL 1.09, then WWE 1.10. this is exactly what i did. i dont know what went wrong. im sure if im as knowlegable as you are, i wouldnt have screwed up my phone. my bad.
just to be fair, your method did work when i updated my dopod 595 (WWE device) to your WM6.1 beta 4 ROM. but i never upgraded my SPL to 1.10. i only thought of upgrading SPL when you posted the new radio release and that's where i screwed up.
anyway, what is important here is, is my phone unrecoverable? im reading the links you posted as i type, and i'll give the methods. maybe based on your experience, you could suggest some ways to do it. thanks.

it depends on the info displayed on terraterm
for A07 you can use the russian rom to recover

this is what i got from terraterm. same as mtty.

i did flashed back to my original ROM after the first stuck in WM screen incident. and amazingly the flashing process works after several mix and match. after the original (WM5) ROM completed flashing, my IPL is downgraded back to 0.9 and SPL is still 1.09, and im still stuck at the WM logo screen (this time WM5 logo).

terraterm is a tool like mtty
what is your orignal rom??
just try to flash over sdcard... (look in wiki4more infos about that)

i tried SD card flashing too yesterday. it says not allowed. i have already flashed over the original dopod 595 ROM and my phone is now WM5. the flashing is 100% successful, but it is still stuck at the second boot WM screen.
i think im in a really screw up position now. i have SPL 1.09 and IPL 0.9. i dont know what is corrupted now. is it the CID? SPL?

cid you can check with mtty and info 2...
if that so... just do what i have wroted in pm...
you could also just try the old htc rom (w. SPL 2.05)

both mtty and terraterm give me the same msg when i type info 2. it says time out (refer above for exact error message).
the original dopod 595 rom has SPL2.05. and it was successfully flashed into the phone. when the phone reboots, it is still stuck at 2nd boot screen (WM logo). i checked, the SPL is still 1.09, but IPL has been downgraded to 0.9.

Messed up when flashing Touch HD - Help please?

Hello.
I have messed up seriously right now. I've flashed and flashed, original ROMs and Duttys, trying to get it to work.
I first got Duttys ROM flashed, but had problems with screnn-color and Flightmode.
Then I flashed directly from Duttys to Original 1.56 ROM, and during flashing something happend (don't know what).
Bottum line is that when starting phone, the screen says:
----------------------------
RUUNBH
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
Upgrade ROM code error
Please try again
Serial
----------------------------
And that is with normal start (1 push on the start-button).
What to do now? All i want is to get back to original ROM, 1.56 or 1.14. Just so the phone is working.
Thanks A LOT for ANY help I can get.... I'm really stucked now...

in order to flash 1.56 based roms you have to flash hspl 1.56
hspl is not backwards compatible so if you want to flash back to an older rom based on older spl you must flash hspl 1.14 (or whatever)
check cracwhore's dummies guide to flashing roms explains everything

download hspl 1.56 olinex and uspl 2.5 from the stick thread named tut dummies guide to flashing..(by crackwhore)
steps there after are..
1..remove the sd card
2.. startup ur fone nd let it go to the screen as described by u..
3.. connect it via usb cable to ur pc(install necessar drivers from the same guide as mentioned above). If all goes ok till now ull see "usb" written in the white part of the screen as described by u and u can move on to the next step.. if not ill remain "serial". incase it remains serial then ull hv to downgrade ur drivers in vista os by drivers provided in the thread.
4. run uspl 2.5. U'll see 1.56.0000 change to 1.xx.uspl
5. Now run the HSPL wrapper u hv dnloaded..
6. phone reboots and ull see 1.56.olinex
if all works as described u can flash any 1.56 cooked rom without any difficulties..
feel free to ask ne ques that arise during the process

Hello and thanks for help.
I've read cracwhore's dummies guide about 20 times, but I don't know what to do now.
In the HSPL-thread it says that I "must Have Phone Synced with PC in Windows Mobile!!!". How to do that - when the device does not even start up? I only get the tricolor-screen and what I posted erlier.

I've also got the same problem.
I was on Dutty's 3.9 XT, but decided to revert to standard WWE 1.56. I flashed the Std 1.56 ROM successfuly, and then tried to restore the ship SPL 1.54 using the card flash method. This failed, and now I'm stuck on the bootlader screen forever.
No matter what I do the THD always goes to bootloader (red-green-blue-white screen), with following text:
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
Upgrade ROM code error
Please try again

When I start blac_uspl.exe (USPL 2.5), a window flashes for a split second and then nothing else happens.
When I try to run HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe and step through the preliminary screens, the Verify that you want to update ROM version screen has the From Image Version as blank and the To Image Version as 1.56.Olinex. When I click to commit the flash the THD screen switches to white with a progress indicator that always stays at 0% until it times out. Recovery does nothing and the same thing always happens. Using Vista64. .Net installed and fine. I can't use the card method (BLACIMG.NBH) - the system also stays on "Loading .... 0%" and nothing else happens.
When I try to flash anything (have tried HSPL1.56, Dutty's 3.9 ROM, stock 1.54 spl) using the card method, the system says "Loading . . ." and hangs there forever without a progress indicator showing.
Please help!

Im having the same problem as you. I hope i havent bricked the phone.

AdamsvillE, go to this thread.

Stuck in bootloader loading screen.

Im about to flash my ROM from original 1.56 to Duttys new, but when i enter bootloader the white loadingscreen gets stuck in my face. Nothing happens and i need to remove the battery to shut down device. Anyone? Freakin frustratin´.

Before I flashed my first rom, I read wiki.xda-developers.com to make sure I understood what I was doing, and used the search button, instead of risking turning my phone into a paper weight.
Since then, Crackwhore has written a very helpful post at the top of this forum about how to use HSPL and USPL to allow you to flash roms.

yeah i know all that. not my first time flashing a phone but the first time it got stuck loading the bootloader. and specially when i´ve only used the HTC update.

you mean you couldn't get to boot loader page?

So you already have HSPL 1.56 installed (or have SPL1.54 and used USPL)?
If you have HSPL you could try renaming the .nbh file to blacimg.nbh and copying it to the SD card and entering bootloader

Same problem here. Stuck in bootloader mode. Loading progress indicator never moves beyond 0%. Have always used the card method (blacimg.nbh), but this time it doesn't work and nothing flashes. No matter what I do the system goes to tricolour bootloader screen and says ROM update error. Have tried 3 microSD cards, all in working order, so this isn't the problem. The full problem description is here. Help!

try dnloading the rom again amd try.
the file might be corrupt

Have tried that many times. File is not corrupt. I'm getting really worried this is now a brick...

OK, if you can get phone into bootloader, it is not bricked
What does your SPL say in bootloader? Do you get any errors when trying to flash rom? Are you using USPL or HSPL? If USPL, you have to use it before every flash to new rom or radio. If HSPL, are you using correct version?

When I start blac_uspl.exe (USPL 2.5), a window flashes (Vista64) for a split second and then nothing else happens. The Vista64 system's USBs work with THD and have been used to sync over past few months.

Your SPL says 1.54.0000. When you try and run USPL.exe have you remembered to disable your antivirus?
Have you tried usb method instead of card for flashing rom?
I know you have said that youi have used usb for syncing, but when in bootloader does it change from 'serial' to 'usb' when you connect HD to PC?

Fallen Spartan - I want to thank you for taking the time to help me resolve this problem. Very much appreciated!
1. Yes, anti-virus disabled and indeed removed from the PC.
2. Yes, have tried the USB method at least 20 times.
3. Yes, the bootloader changes from Serial to USB. It then goes to the progress indicator screen and hangs on 0%. The progress indicator on the RUU on PC also stays at 0% and eventually times out. I've gone through the Recovery routine at least 20 times, with no luck.
When I try to run SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe it says "not a valid Win32 application".

I'm a bit perplexed by this.
You have obviously successfully flashed Duttys V3.9 so drivers are fine, you know how to use USPL, both flashing methods (SD card and usb/pc), disabled anti-virus, phone in bootloader.
Have you tried to reflash 1.56 rom or possibly performing a hard reset before trying to use USPL or HSPL. I doubt this would make a difference though.
Have you tried cRaCKwHoRe's USPL GUI v 2.5 Application?
You don't get any code errors?? I'm struggling to find a solution here.

Yes, this is most vexing. I've flashed innumerable times before and never had an issue. I suspect the SPL is fine, but somehow the actual WM ROM image is corrupted. Will now try to load Std 1.56 ROM image again...

Success! The 3rd attempt at reflashing stock 1.56 ROM worked. I don't know why the system bombed out before. Perhaps one of those inexplicable brain farts..
Anyway, all seems to be fine now. Fallen Spartan, you have my endless gratitude for at least responding. Let me know if you need accommodation at next year's FIFA World Cup in South Africa (though I'm a rugby fan).

No accomodation required, just glad you got it sorted

Im still stuck. When i installed HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex my screen changed colors but would go back to normal when i would turn the screen off and back on so i didnt see it as a problem. I installed the EnergyROM BLACKSTONE 20090608 Standard an tried to go back stock using RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.0_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship but it gets to 1% then says this update utility cannot be used for you PDA phone. Please check your update utlity.
Then the phone boots up and at the black smart mobility screen in the bottom corner it says
R 1.09.25.14
G 52.49A.25.26U
D 1.14. 21010
the phone boots up with the funny colors again and goes to align screen but it keeps staying there even after i align it.
The bootloader screen says
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
USB
Am i tryin to install the wrong stock ROM. I purchased the HD from phonesource-usa if that helps also

can anybody help me at all

Adamsville: perhaps you're stuck in bootloader mode because the WM ROM image flashed on your system has become corrupted or disabled, ie the only thing the system can boot into is the bootloader.
Try flashing a new compatible WM ROM image and see if that works.

a hardreset followed by a 1.54 base rom will solve all ur probs.
or lower spl to 1.14 cos ur stock rom is a 1.14 base as suggested by th name..
