Flashing with SEUS and HardSPL? - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

HI Guys,
is it possible to flash (or check if R3 is existing ) via SEUS when i have installed hardSPL?
When I follow the instructions in SEUS the application doens't check my firmware...
I got in tricolor mode and attached usb cable but nothing happens?
do i have to revert to stock spl or is there a special trick?
thanks & greets from austria
Alex

No, u dont need to revert to stock SPL for using SEUS..
Just make sure u have sync ur X1 properly with activesync/windows mobile device center before using SEUS.
But if u'r using cooked ROM, i suggest u revert back to Stock ROM first.

hm, weird..Im having the same issue..
perhaps its win7 related

That's odd. I thought the new SEUS should work well with Win7, itje.

I just tried on my laptop with vista...It started with no problem
but I dont get any r3 updates, just to reinstall the stock rom I now have...

I think it's not Win7 problems. I've tried it with Vista, SEUS didn't work when I was using cooked ROM, then i revert to stock ROM and it works.

lol, did you think I tried with cooked rom?

I have try it with hard-spl olinex and with my own custom rom that is a light version of official rom (without videos and ringtones) made be me. jejeje
And seus works ok. Not problem at all..
Bthw i use win xp pro sp3

i have tried it now several times, only one time the status screen "checking version" came up but didn't really do anything....
reinstalling of seus didn't change anything

What ROM r u using? Cooked or Stock ROM?

I'm using generic_AT_R2 rom / stock...
but i have just discovered that my battery is < 50 %
will charge it now and try again later... maybe sw checks the status? (error message would be fine )

hy all
Small seus guide
1.unplug the phone
start seus and click next till it asks to connect phone
2.pull the battery
press volume down and power (enter bootloader)
3.connect the phone
and seus will recognise it

Hi Jerpelea..
Can you confirm if SEUS works with Cooked ROM? Some ppl reported SEUS worked with it, but in my experiences, it never worked with WM6.5. Or maybe SEUS only works with WM6.1 cooked ROM? or maybe I miss something?

I have use seus with my own custom rom that i made with an original wm6.1
R2AA from LAM i just take out the videos and other stuffs like bigs mp3...
And seus has work well...

hi!
i justed tried it with a full battery but same mistake again...
went through all instructions, phone is in tricolor, connected usb but then nothing happens...
i'm using SPL-0.72.OliNex
any suggestions?
thanks!

hi again!
just tried it again on a differnt computer, now i tried it with windows XP
and it worked
so there is a big problem with vista sp1..
tried to reinstall drivers and so on but it simply doesn't work
-> win XP worked great now I have 3RAA007 generic AT
greetz from AT

Well i think the problem is Vista/Windows 7.
The odd thing is that it can discover the device when it's not in bootloader mode(though not flash it because it's not in the bootloader mode).
It tells you the device couldn't be verified, but to me it seems like the program will only work if your device has an established partnership with ActiveSync/Mobile Device Center. But the device in bootloader mode isn't capable of establishing partnership, and therefor it doesn't get detected by the application.
That's my theory atleast.

I've used seus with a custom rom. But it definitely doesn't work in win7.
XP it works everytime, and vista seems a bit hit and miss..

I got my phone last friday and tried SEUS almost straight away, Windows 7 really doesnt like it. Had to use my xp laptop

Hmm... weird. I'm on HSPL with an original ROM, but not stock.
SEUS goes as far as "Checking connected phone" and then exits.
Any ideas?

cannot hardspl the phone anymore(Secret anti-hardspl lock?)

I had to take my xperia to store for maintainance and stock-spl'd it. Which went okay. I got it back yesterday, but now everytime I try to hard-spl the phone. I get the 262 error. Any idears?
can there be engaged some secret anti-romupdate anti-hard-spl lock on my phone???
the spl is 0.78.
SEUS can't see the phone, neither the rom-update utility.
If your SPL is 0.78, it seems like SE change the stock SPL of the X1
The stock SPL should be 0.72
So if it is true, you may have to wait for a new hardSPL...
oooh if you have spl 78 what sys do you have?

update activesync/WMDC on your computer.
Edit,
On my old machine running XP I was able to hard-spl the phone, but not on Vista
Stock SPL 0.78 requested
My problem is another way,
I bring my phone back to shop for maintenance. SPL is 0.78. then do Hardspl by activesync to 0.58 successfully. but now i cannot bring it back to shop for warranty anymore. cos i could never stock the SPL to 0.78 cos there is only have stock SPL 0.72 available. anyone can provide me stock SPL 0.78?

Just install stock ROM, then stock SPL 0.72. At last connect to SEUS and search for new ROM (SEUS will install stock SPL 0.78 without you having to flash a new ROM via SEUS).
But I can confirm the new stock SPL is 0.78, SEUS installed it when I connected to search for new R3AA013 Dutch Vodafone ROM.
I need to bring my X1 for service. I have flashed the original stock rom from Pavel's sticky thread, then flashed stock SPL 0.72. Phone works ok, and bootloader now says SPL-0.72.0000
However, no matter how many computers I tried I can't get SEUS to recognize the phone - when I plug the USB cable, Windows says "USB device not recognized", SEUS doesn't find the phone (stays at the prompt to plug in the bootloader started phone). Anyone have a suggestion what is going on?

Sometimes, SEUS and ActiveSync are not very good friends...
Try that: on your computer, go to ActiveSync settings and uncheck "allow USB connection".
Then, retry SEUS

No ActiveSync connection, but still charging??

Hello,
i have a big problem and i dont know how to solve it.
1) I flashed the OliNex 1.56 using the HSPL method.
2) Flashed Xnor 1.4 Rom
3) Flashed LIA 14.5 Rom
4) Flashed a stock Rom(O2 6.1 Radio 1.12)
5) Flashed back to LIA 14.5(Installed Radio 1.14 and Rillphone 1.14)
6) Want to flash to L3.5, but no connection any more and stll charging over the usb cable
7) Hard reset, nothing changed
Yesterday the connection to activesync was available, but today the phone still charging but the connection to active sync is lost.
I set the phone to bootloader to flash a other rom, but the phone does not detect the usb connection (no usb at the bottom).
Hope you know what to do...
Thx

Remove and reinstall activesync on your xp pc. You can also try to remove all known devices in AS first.

x1 upgrade rom code error :(

Hi
iv try'd to upgrade the rom via Update Service 2.10.5.11 (i have windows 7 64bit ) and it says
upgrade rom code error
its an vodafone X1i stock firmware... dont know what happand
it stops at 19%\10\0% and says "installation failed please disconnect phone and make sure that the battery is fully charged before trying again if the problems presists contact support"
i'v try'd this couple of times and again the same ****!
the battery was charged all night!
the same thing over and over again!
SEUS is the biggest piece of crap software I know, I never succeeded in updating my X1 with 1 try.
You can minimize the chance for errors by:
- make sure al the drivers for your phone are installed (the one when you connect to the pc in bootloader mode and the one when you booted your phone)
- don't run any apps in the background
- make sure you phone is connected with activesync before running SEUS
- make sure your phone isn't hardSPL'ed and running the original stock ROM (the one it came out the box with)
if by meaning "make sure your phone isn't hardSPL'ed" u mean that
the phone is with the stock firmware ? if it helps its vodaphone's stock firmware.
i know that its very anoying but can some one guide me what to do to fix the phone?
im a bit afraid to do that its my firms WinMob based phone and i dont want to brick it...
yet!
and no more double posting from now on pls
sry
wont happ'n again
hope so...

newsflash! ! ! !
i'v done it! the problem was the SEUS the app is not upgrading well under WIN7 OS
in XP the upgrading was smooth and that fixed my phone
thank u sooo much m8's!!!!!!

[Q] Sync over USB problem

Hello,
I'm having issue synchronizing my Xperia X1 with my PC using ActiveSync or WMDC.
Powering my battery works but sync doesn't. I tried 2 other USB cables and same problem occur.
I tried different PC but still I have same problem. I event went back to original Stock and this doesn't helps also.
Should I send my device for fix? I have warranty? I can reverse to original Stock and put back original boot loader.
Hopefully they will fix it but if they don't I cannot add custom ROM any more
You can go and get a card reader to have your sd mini read in the pc, I got mine with 5 EUR and it also supports several type of cards. Also keep in mind that read/write speed is faster with a card reader than plugging your device in Disk Drive mode and this can be convenient sometimes
Good luck with the repair. If you revert to stock SPL and to stock rom and if your time of warranty is not up then you should have no problems, although in my country the service center sucks, they try to make you pay as much as possible...
I manage to resolve this issue. I revers back to my stock ROM 6.1 and still I cannot sync. Then I put back radio 1.10.25.18 and it START TO WORK !!!! I can sync now without any problem and it works now with 6.5 ROM and different radio.
This was last step before I want to return it to SonyEricsson service.

usb probem
how to update the radio 1.10.25.85 on xperia x1 by the micro sd card? since the usb is not working? thanks!
same as you update your ROM, just rename radio file to KOVSIMG.nbh and update it. Hope this will work for you also.
yes I do this procedure [KOVSimg.nbh] but gets caught in tla loading. WHAT do I do now .thanks!
there is no difference in flashing ROM and Radio, can you maybe check that you do all proceudre correctly? maybe you should download Radio from some other place, maybe is broken
i have the same problem...the battery is recharging but it cannot sync...maybe it has something to do with the version of windows...i was using windows vista and windows mobile device center and it synced and all was ok...but now i have windows 7 ultimate x64 and even though i downloaded the mobile device center it does not recognise the phone when i plug it in activesync mode....it still works perfectly in USB drive mode....but i cannot flash a new rom through the usb method now...recently tried it on a friends pc with windows xp and activesync and worked just fine...any thoughts on that??..
ok. I tried everything. [xperia x1] is not reconhesido by [usb].
neither the radio rom can be clicked. [already downloaded several saiter]. it hangs in louding
I've the same problem occured before but I'm not sure if it's as simple as mine.
All I did was disable "Faster Transfer" under Active Sync radio Button in USB 2 PC (Control Panel), hope it's helpful.
Ok, I'd try this, but I have two questions:
1) can any body give the link to the old Radio rom?
2) I already have a 828x rom installed. is that compatible with the old rom?

hm, OT post
1) radio selection, don't forget to install a matching rilphone.dll
2) afaik those two (meaning radio rom and normal rom) are not related like that, radios should work in all versions on all roms
it might be, that you suffer less functionality/signal strength when using an older radio version, but that is regionally different and cannot be generalized
hope you find your ideal combo

[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
help?
Now as your device is updated (officially)... so now can you try installing HSPL from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312

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.
