I have another, less harsh theory. It's that no one had a useful suggestion for you until HDUBLI came along and offered advice. Or, your problem has been experienced by others and based on reading the forum and a little experimentation on your part, you could have solved it.
Rather than lash out at everyone because they didn't overwhelm you with solutions, you should be thankful these forums exist in the first place.
If you are uncomfortable or unfamiliar with the risks and issues associated with ROM flashing, I suggest you stick with what your carrier provided. This is a friendly and sharing forum, but you won't make any friends by bearing unreasonable expectations and criticizing.
Glad your issue was resolved.

I can't get it to work. I flashed succesfully CUSTOM_RUU_Prodigy_2170702_217_20710_TMO_US.exe and CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe but afterwards with both ROMS when I try to flash 2.08 Qtek test ROM, it goes nicely all the way to colors screen and then stops with "error [296] upgrade only".
I noticed that SPL stayed 2.17 after both ROMS, is it the reason 2.08 won't go through?

search forum carefuly...you hv to CID Unlock everytime.I hv been doing this...Pls try and post here

Hdubli I bow down to you, you teh guru
I flashed Button's ROM and then ran cid-unlock with aWizard 1.2. After that I succesfully flashed Qtek 2.08 ROM. Thanks for the help, man!

Want to go back to qtek9100 1.1.7.5 9/22/05 ROM

Hdubli,
I have a bit of a similar problem here. I have a Qtek9100 with the ROM Version: 1.1.7.5 ROM date: 09/22/05.
Recently, I upgraded to AKU rom, but I see that this rom is unstable and gives me problems with wifi which used to work flawlessly on my original rom. I just want to go back to the 1.1.7.5 ROM.
In your post, you asked to flash a CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe rom and then CIDunlock and then flash old rom. My question is,
1. is this Custom rom the actual qtek9100 1.1.7.5 Rom ? If yes then I can just do this step.
2. If not, then you said that I need to CID unlock. Would cid unlocking void the warranty.
3. Further, if I cid unlock, do you know where do I find the installer for qtek 1.1.7.5 ROM, dated 9/22/05.
I know lot of questions here, but i would really appreciate any help on these.
Please advise.

Maybe CID Lock problem ? NEED HELP !!!!

Hi, After the soft reset comand, I removed the battery from my Wizard. After that the followin problem was appear: the phone is bringing up to the splash screen and STOP on this position.I have tried to download another Rom but the problem still is the same. My Phone is not CID unlock and before this, I cooked own rom like is writen here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=271043 . So any idea how to wake-up my phone MDA Vario.

Ok forgive me if I'm wrong here, I don't really want to judge before I know the full story, but seems to me your brain went on strike momentarily. First rule of flashing any unofficial rom CID UNLOCK YOUR DEVICE. Anyways sorry, I just wanted to say something so it doesn't happen to you again, that said, what rom did you try to upgrade to? what rom did you try to downgrade to after that? is your device a G3 or G4?
If your device is a G3 I would recommend downgrading to this rom by xelecin
ftp://xda:[email protected]_RUU_Wizard_1081002_108_10910_ENG_US.exe
it will ask you if you want to CID unlock your device at the start so you shouldn't need to worry about forgetting this time , if you can't connect your device to activesync just go into the bootloader (hold the camera, voice dial buttons while pressing the reset button) and once it connects run the set-up.
Oh another thing before I forget..... do some searching and read up a bit, because this is a pretty common topic on this forum, best of luck and hope everything works out ok. If not, report back.
*edit* I just noticed the thread that you linked to, I actually wasn't aware that this was possible, but anyways I think it's still much safer to CID unlock your device if possible, and another thing you might try replying in that thread if it doesn't work out since they should be more knowledgeable in the matter..... and that would help keep the forums less cluttered *edit*

Thanks, for your help, Unfortunately you are totaly right for my stupid act (again). At first i tried to solve the problem alone , but whole day I roam through this forum to find solution but I can't find the same problem like my. Maybe because of my ..... brain .Anyway I am with G3. NOW I have
IPL 1.0
SPL 2.26
GSM 01.09.11
OS 1.5.4.2
This is after this procedure http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=263116
I tried also to download also and Molski's 2.26.10.2 AKU2.3 Rom a.k.a. 2.26.10.2 Final Edition Rom, but the problem is the same : The splash screen is running and STOP and.... nothing.
I can go to bootloader and can download new rom, but I can't start fhe phone.

Yeah I know these forums aren't the easiest in which to look for info. So you can go into the bootloader, that's good. Don't try to go to a AKU2.x rom or later, keep it under that, so no 2.26 roms at all. 105, or 108 roms should be good.
Did you try the rom from the link I provided or the one on the thread? and afterwards did it go into the phone at all? My friends MDA had a similar problem last week, caused by the same thing, though in your case I see the SPL isn't updating when you install new roms on his it was the os that wasn't updating, but as soon as I installed that rom I recommended it booted up fine, then I updated his device to molski's 2.3.
I'll check back in a few so let me know how's it going.

Ok, but tell me how to solve this :
"qiote"
8. Open ActiveSync, Explore and copy enablerapi.cab from your PC's C:\ (remember that's where you extracted lokiwiz to...) to you device, I don't care where.
9. Pick up your PDA, File Explorer, find the enablerapi.cab and click it.
"quote"
I don't have access to the phone explorer and phone at all.
masr1979 I have tried the rom you give me, but it look like there is some things I don't understand: When I start the exe file i have choice <continue> .Whet I type <c> 2(two) time the soft tell me <no device found> and order me to continue with copy ???. After few seconds tell me that Unlocker ..... Done!, and start HTC wizard Unlocker and NOTHING !!! Stop on this position more then 15 min. and only the led for charging on the phone is active.

Forget all about unlocking. Until you can boot the device completely it'll never work.
Try and install an official 2.x ROM on your device.
My suspicion is that you originally has a G4 device, which is bad because if you DID have a G4 you have a brick now...

Can you remember your phones old ipl/spl? for your sake I hope it wasn't something in this format 2.XX.000X.

Of course I'm not sure, but I thing it was 2.21. Anyway did you think that is posible to cook my own rom in G4? I'm totally confused.
Every time when I upload new rom I have this:

Thanks, but I try to find oficial rom but without success. And very interesting thing I found.. when I start to upload new rom the soft start to check my old rom and after that tell me that i have GE (german) language, but my old was WWE ?
Is it posible some one to give me some link to official 2.x ROM but for T-mobile german language.

Well the other day I tried finding that german rom for a while.... that search was going nowhere, I saw this thread, I don't know if you might want to check into it and maybe try it out. There's mixed results apparently but who knows

What exactly is hardSPL? USPL vs hardSPL

I apologize in advance if my questions are trivial and I am just dense.
I am pretty sure I've read through all the threads for "n00bs" but I still can't get a grasp of what exactly hardSPL does or is. I ran the search function and found that I don't NEED it per say and has claimed that it actually is "safer" to use USPL.
I own a Tmobile Wing (IPL > 4.xxx)
1. What exactly is the difference between USPL and hardSPL?
2. What are the limitations of either one.. will flashing a cooked rom without hardSPL cause problems?
3. I currently have flashed the newest Open Touch 4.0 and haven't had any problems at all (USPL), but I noticed in the thread for Touch-IT, it says that hardSPL is required. What does that mean exactly? If I flashed it w/o hardSPL.. will my wing crash/brick?
4. At some point, I'd like to sell the phone, so I don't want to do anything that is irreversible. My understanding was USPL is reversible, hardSPL is not?
5. I was on the verge of flashing the hardSPL but chickened out.
I installed the three cab files (canonyang.cab aserpolicy.cab disablesecurity.cab) but decided I wasn't ready to flash.
Will that cause any problems (installing the .cabs but not flashing)?
any help/input would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for all the n00b questions. Thanks

Essentially what you are doing is changing the Bootloader so you can install a different ROM regardless if it's signed.
USPL and HardSPL is a matter of having it done temporarely or permenantly.
USPL (temporary), is the safe route. This will allow you to Install one USPL capable ROMs per USPL. So if you're not a big flasher, and thinking about selling your phone in the near future, then you might want to stick to this method.
HardSPL (permenant), is the only TRUE way of bricking your phone. You will flash the bootloader for good so that you can constantly flash new ROMs without having to worry about flashing your bootloader of making sure it's a signed ROM. For heavy flashers, like myself, this is the ideal route.
HardSPL is reversible, there are some threads on how to do that. If I remember correctly, you have to flash back to a Stock T-Mo ROM.
Some ROMs require HardSPL because sometimes the cooks use different methods to flash ROMs onto devices other than ActiveSync (which is needed for flashing via USPL).
For example, ttran001's Open Touch V4.0 Micro ROM flashes onto your device using your SDCard, the phone is never connected to you PC so no opertunity to USPL. If it was not HardSPL'd, the ROM would be rejected. If it was, the flash would continue flawlessly.
I hope this answers your questions, and please, if I got anything wrong, correct me.
Regards,

Oh and from what I understand, installing those cabs wont hurt your device if you dont HardSPL. I believe you can uninstall them from the "remove program" which can be found under Settings/System/Remove Programs.
Everyone's allowed a Noob question every now and then I only know all this info because I read, so im sure if you read u'll be just fine.

nKiwan, thanks for quick and throrough reply
I get a little lost with this:

what does that mean exactly?
perhaps I should start by asking the USPL acronym stands for - I've googled it and I couldn't find the right acronym.
From my understanding.. the only real difference (besides one uspl rom per uspl vs infinite - i'm still a little hazy on that) is that hardSPL allows for flashing outside of activesync?
thanks again... I swear I tried my best using the search function and reading

Well, correct me if i'm wrong, if you do not HardSPL, then you must USPL your device everytime you wish to flash your device. This will temporarely change your bootloader so it will allow you to flash a non signed ROM, a.k.a. an "outside" ROM. USPL capable ROMs, are ROMs that you can flash using USPL, therefore, ActiveSync.
Well there are two differences I guess... HardSPL, basically, allows for flashing outside of ActiveSync; and will allow you to flash any ROM as many times as you would like, once HardSPL'd.
As far as the acronym goes, I have NO clue lol. Never bothered to find out, I guess it would be helpful to know .

nKiwan said:

hardSPL.... will allow you to flash any ROM as many times as you would like, once HardSPL'd.

Technically then.. I could also flash any rom as many times as I want using USPL as long as I run USPL.exe? I read the flashing guide several times. The only difference I found was that you run USPL.exe and it goes through a loader instead of just running the RUU flaser. Is that right?
i apologize once again if I am being incredibly dense.
thanks again for putting up with my n00bness

there ya go! you got it. As you become more experienced you'll start to understand the need of HardSPL.
I was once a noob myself, so i understand where u coming from . Just glad I can help.
Regards,

nkiwan - thank you so much for answering my barrage of n00b questions.
You have been a great help. I really appreciate it.

Wow I think this is the coolest thread I have read ...it is just awesome what the WWW has done for all of us and thanks for the info

Glad I can help

I can understnad the use of USPL but I would recommend the use of hard SPL if you are planning to flash multiple roms. Either way I think it is just a matter of whether or not you actually want to run the USPL everytime you want to flash a rom... Don't quote me on that.

Just to doublecheck myself....
If I use USPL method and hard reset my phone - will I have the stock rom or the flashed one?
if I understand correctly USPL will bring back the stock one after hard reset and HSPL the new one.

very sorry to ask this now..from what i get is there are 3 ways of turning ur phone from phone to super phone:
1. install .cabs
2.soft flashing
3.hard flashing???
am i rite??

Hi Brother,
Same problem with me i have also search every where but failed... no answer about Hard spl.Every body say do hard spl and search in fourm and so on. There was no proper guide what it is and how to do. i was really puzzel. Now i have come to know that axect what it is Hard Spl.
Hard Spl mean CID unlock. If you unlock CId of the phone its mean you have done Hard SPl. Without CID unlock you can not write ROM.
Thanks

I have a T-Mobile Wing. I hardSPL'd it, installed a custom ROM, then I used the RUU to flash the original ROM back to it. It doesn't show the CanonYang startup screen, but the SPL version is still 4.70.Yang. Is it still HardSPL'd?

You can always check in the bootloader screen (the RGB screen).
Even if you have a 4.70.Yang you still need the IPL to be higher than 4 to flash custom ROMs. That is what is important.
If you ever see any of these number's change, Run the HardSPL folder again.

(Newbie) - A couple of questions before flashing my HD

I posted this deep in another thread (a sticky), but I think it fits better as a new topic because it is not specific to that other thread. I'll make a note in the other thread to avoid duplicates.
Okay....
I'm absolutely new to the world of ROMs and SPL, HSPL, SSPL and USPL - but I've been doing my homework today and I've read all of the wiki links more than once.
Before diving into it and making some dumb newbie mistake, I wanted to run a couple of things by you guys.
I have the German o2 ROM 1.14.207.2 (24011) GER.
I don't want the o2 branding, but I still want it in German.
So, I want to flash RUU_BlackStone_HTC_GER_1.14.407.3_Radio_52.49a.25. 26_1.09.25.14_Ship.exe
My understanding is that since these are both stock ROMs (at least I believe they both are, right?), my stock SPL should accept the new ROM without any problems. In other words, I don't need anything like USPL. Am I correct? Or do I actually need USPL because the new ROM is not from my current vendor which is o2?
Based on what I learned reading all the info, this is what I plan to do:
Turn off my phone, remove SIM and MicroSD
Enter boot mode (tricolor screen)
connect phone via usb to WMDC (Vista 32-bit). The settings are set to ALLOW usb connections
Disable my antivirus program
Disable all power saving modes, screensavers etc.
Run the RUU Ship.exe mentioned above as administrator
Follow instructions until device reboots
So now my warranty should still be fine. If I have to send the device in for repair, to I need to put the o2 ROM back on it?
Thanks for your help (and patience) with a newbie that scared to turn his HD into a brick. I think I'll wear diapers while I'm flashing - just in case.
I'll wait for some responses before I tackle the 7 steps above.

No, thats not true at all. For instance you can't flash a WWE Rom over a German Rom, although they are both stock roms. There is a country specific code (CID). The stock SPL is checking this, so its impossible to flash roms coming from another country.
I'm not sure if the stock SPL also checks the vendor/operator, but I guess it does.

You should just try it. The SPL will tell you whether it accepts the rom or not.

First of all you should consider which SPL you want to use. If you really just want to flash this new rom, USPL is good for you, if you are going to change your rom more frequently then HSPL is the way to go.
Instructions on how to use this SPLs are given in the appreciate threads (with many comments of other users), so you should look them up (again).
Chris Cross said:

You warrany is fine, if the operator/vendor gets the device with the rom he shipped it to you (or any official upgrade provided by this operator/vendor). If you flash the official htc german rom, you might loose your warranty.

Read the USPL thread carefully - you have to disable allow usb connections. In vista you will probably find that you will have to downgrade the USB drivers - that is dealt with in Post 69 of the USPL thread - see also post 1 of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723

yes, I had read that about disabling usb connections. I just thought that if I did not need USPL then I could leave usb connections enabled and try the other german ship.exe rom. Anyway, I think might need to alter the SPL anyway.
THANK YOU ALL for your responses. They were very helpful and it is time for me to get working on it when I get home.
I will post back my results.

Well, everything worked out fine.
I ended having to use USPL because my SPL did not accept the new stock ROM (same language, but different vendor: o2 vs. non-branded).
I did have to downgrade my vista drivers for it to work. I followed all the wiki instructions and had no problems.
Thanks again for the help.

Did i brick it ?

OK i think i ****ed up bigtime.
I was on HSPL, and at first i flashed a stock rom.
After that i flashed DUtty's rom and it went ok.
It booted up with green screen problem and loads of locks and really really slow. After that i tried to use uspl but i was getting connection problems. After that i thought i should go to 1.15 stock spl and so i flashed that one, in order to use uspl. But the problems still persist, and now i cant revert back to a previous cooked rom.
Any suggestions ?

Use Manually Bootloader
Go back to stock spl, first flash stock rom, use sspl manual turn olinex and flash stock spl and then u can hspl again.
Hope it solves the prob. Just take a look at my Grafik Problem thread!

Hi,
Why, Windows 7 has the same drivers like Vista???
Can You express more crearly?

i flashed on Win 7 (build 7077)... i had to roll back the HTC USB Sync driver as explained in many threads about flashing the latest HD ROM v 1.56. i think some of our fellow members are not following all the steps to flash with the new ROM/SPL.

i tried reverting the drivers but it is simply not working. i am thorough and i do read the details.

I had no problems with the drivers. I just followed the correct procedures mentioned in the wiki and post#6 of Duttys v2.8 rom
Have you tried rebooting pc afterwards and pressing F8 as per the instructions to help load them?

There is no red thread, they all just blend together in a big mess and leave out answeres to simple questions that would clearify stuff for newbies.
The more i read the long pages of instructions the more confused i get.

I agree, they can be confusing, but once you have mastered it, you'll wonder what the problem was!
What exactly are you confused with? What steps have you taken? Where are you now in the process?

Don't worry about the phone it will be ok.
The steps are as follow:
1). Flash hardspl
2). Flash a stockrom
3). Flash USPL 2.5
4). With USPL on your phone flash to Dutty
To revert back to previous roms:
1). Flash hardspl
2). Flash your previous rom.
Grtz,

OK i think i ****ed up bigtime.
I was on HSPL, and at first i flashed a stock rom.
After that i flashed DUtty's rom and it went ok.
It booted up with green screen problem and loads of locks and really really slow. After that i tried to use uspl but i was getting connection problems. After that i thought i should go to 1.15 stock spl and so i flashed that one, in order to use uspl. But the problems still persist, and now i cant revert back to a previous cooked rom.
Any suggestions ?

Im fine, thanx, I have flashed my phone twice without big problems.
But the second time I got really confused when i tried to really understand it and followed the instructions step by step, it just sent me in a loop between all the different pages.
A simple question and a simple answere in the ROM-thread solved my confusion then, and now I just ignore the ramblings in the instruction pages.

I have a question about this. As my HD was replaced (warranty) I don't know which version I have (O2 or HTC). My first HD was a O2 branded with 1.14.207 ROM, the replaced one (from the same supplier) came with the 1.14.407 ROM which is the official German HTC ROM. I've just tried to download the newly released ROM by HTC, but the site states that the new ROM is not available for my device (but I could at least register the device). Could be that this is because it's an O2 device or probably because the new ROM wasn't yet released in German?
So is it really important to flash exactly the stock ROM (as the CID has to fit) or is it okay - like Laurentius said - to flash any stock ROM? Don't wanna brick my device when upgrading to 1.54/1.56...btw...why one has to go to a stock ROM when upgrading to 1.5x afterwards? Is there a difference when upgrading from 1.14 to 1.5x instead of 1.19 to 1.5x? I didn't get it yet...
Thanks in advance,

Any stock rom should do it as Laurentius said

A lot of confusion has come about from these newer cooked 1.56 roms so I wrote a guide. If you still have confusion please read the guide in my signature
Windows 7 is also most definitely not an issue. Several of us here are using it successfully.
