cannot hardspl the phone anymore(Secret anti-hardspl lock?) - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

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

Ok, so you are on the bootloader... Whats the IPL / SPL showing (exactly what both numbers are). When you plug in the USB cord, do you see USB above the left softkey (if you do, then you can flash). Is your phone a G3 or G4?
What is the exact error you get when you try to flash to your phone?
Have you tried flashing on a different PC? Have you rebooted your PC? Pull out the SD card on your phone before turning it on and flashing it.
In the WIki there is a link to how to flash from your SD card, if all else fails you may have to try that (but that would be a last resort IMO. Also remember that in the current state, your phone will not charge, so you may have to look at getting your battery charged.

The ipl is 1.01 and the SPL is 2.21
I don't get an error when I try to flash the phone, it just won't connect with the pc

1) Your IPL is 1.01. DO NOT flash WM6 on this phone. You have to be running IPL / SPL of 2.xx for WM6 to work or you will have all sorts of problems / weird issues.
2) What do you mean "it just won't connect with the pc"? When you are at the bootloader Activesync will not connect, but if you see USB above the left softkey on your phone then they ARE connected. You just run the RUU and it will flash (trust me).
3) Based on your IPL / SPL you have 3 choices...
a) Try flashing the Button ROM and get that working. Then do the CID Unlock procedure and follow every single step and verify everything is exaclty as that thread says it should be:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
b) Flash an official ROM. Once you are done, you may or may not have to do the CID Unlock (hard to say with your current IPL / SPL situation). Personally I'd do the CID unlock again to be safe.
c) Flash the Wizard Love ROM (if a and b don't work). Once you do that, then do a to do the CID Unlock.
If this still doesn't help, then you need to be very precise (no more short answers) with exactly what you are doing and what happens when you do it. Its hard to debug this situation when you don't tell us everything. Also you dd not answer any of my previous questions to you. Please do that.
I am having the same problem with a Cingular 8125. I used buttons 1.05 rom to downgrade from the original 2.25 so that I could use the Lokiwiz 0.2b. When that was complete I had IPL 1.01 and SPL 2.25 (similar to dantheman). After that I ran faria's WM6 RUU. All seemed to install well, but after reboot I got error "\Windows\Autoconfig.exe not found". Searching a forum on HTCWizardWeb someone had the same problem and the advise was that he should have used ShellTool to install the WM6 rom, so I did that. All seemed to install well, but after hard reset (as instructed) the device stays on the IPL/SPL screen with the beer mug. No USB message shows above the left softkey when USB is connected. The only time the PC seems to recognize a USB device connected is when I have uninstalled ActiveSync, rebooted, re-installed activesync and plug the wizard in not powered up. Then the taskbar shows USB device found, then your device is ready. I try the 1.05 rom after is says device is ready and it does not detect the wizard (Error 260:UpdateError, The update util cannot connect...) Noted that when I plug the wizard in powered on to the IPL/SPL screen the USB device connected message does not appear. I can only get to that screen and connectivity seems limited.
At this point when i do a hard reset I get "format failed" error and back to IPL/SPL screen.

Your phone isn't unlocked. How are you hard resetting? And you are sure you have a G3?
--M
You didn't follow all the directions for downgrading. Go back and reread Dr P's sticky, but after you do lokiwiz, you have to flash the button rom again so that both IPL/SPL are 1.xx. Then you HAVE to upgrade to an official 2.xx rom to get IPL/SPL to both be 2.xx.
Only after that is complete can you flash WM6 or other custom roms.
Thanks for your help...
You guys are right, I didn't follow all the directions correctly (or at least wasn't reading the correct set of directions, not sure). But for those that made the same mistake that I did here is how I got it going again.
It actually cost me $50, but it was worth it. I found a post about a fix using an SD card, but the phone had to be CID-unlocked (which apparently was the reason the ROM update I tried failed). And another post told me the only way to unlock my phone from the bootloader screen was to use the www.imei-check.co.uk website to unlock it. It cost $40. After i did the CID unlock via that website go to the forum post -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276963&highlight=splash+screen+freezing
I had to buy a 512mb miniSD at wal-mart last minute and paid $20. Anyway that's what fixed it for me, even though it cost me some money.

Cant Update P4350 With Official Wm6

Ive downloaded official wm6 sve rom from HTC website. My herlald is stuck on bootloader ipl 1.08 spl 1.08. When i connect to computer usb is shown on the screen bottom ,but when i try to flash the rom ,error 300 invalid update tool is shown.
how can i fix this??
Official rom matching my p4350 is supposed to work,but it doesnt.
please help!!!
Hi there,
I recently had a similar problem as you, what I did was to:
- remove the battery for 5-10secs
- put the battery back
- press and hold the camera button (do not release it)
- press the power on button ( the one at the top of the phone, used for the soft resets)
- The phone will display three different colors and "IPL ...."
- Connect your phone via the USB cable to the computer, Windows XP detects that as a new hardware and installs the USB drivers for it. Pockect PC ...., just accept the driver installation when it warns you that the driver is not signed.
- Past all of that you should now be ready to use the Official ROM file from HTC, run the file, and go through the steps. It should start the ROM upgrade.
Well I hope it helps you as these steps did bring my phone back after a failed ROM upgrade.
Cheers
thanks for your instructions .
i will try and post results
Is your phone CID locked?
Because if so, you have to go to your phone provider and see if they have their own official rom!

Hi,, I have used shelltool to install TNT 6.1 from wizlove all went smooth
Then i decided to try a different radio so flashed 02.71.11 from o2.37.11
all went smooth no problem,, It wasnt a day and I had to get rid of 02.71.11
so tried flashing to others and ruu loses conection on status bar and screen goes into the tri col mode,, since then I have tried to do hard spl and it gets as far as the white screen and then ruu says lost connection, so I used shelltool to flash back to wizlove but after reboot stuck on splash screen
I can get into the tri colour bootloader screen the usb shows but cant get any connection to ruu
Im G4, ipl 2.16.0001
spl 2.16.0001
gsm 02.71.11
os 2.26.10.2
help me please head is sore from reading too much
Thanks
What IPL/SPL it displays now and which windows are you doing on? If its vista it won't work.WinXP is highly recommended for HardSPL.Don't use Shelltool go for HardSPL or SoftSPL.

ipl spl as posted,,,,,I have already used shelltool to load TNT and then I tried to run hard spl but ruu says lost conection on white screen so I used shelltool to go back to wizlove but on reboot it is stuck on splash screen, and Im on xp
Ah ! yes,its G4,ok,HardSPL won't work in Bootloaders (tricolor) it'll only work if working OS is running.
Which windows are you on vista or winxp ?
Im on xp,, but as I have posted Im now stuck on splash screen
It is almost bricked
So try to reflash an original ROM dont install wizlove (it wont be a diference but...) in RGB try to run the RUU from original EXE package id dont works is almost bricked.
Try to get a backup from another device fully functional following the steps indicated by Drug store on splash screen stucks solution DIY thread if dont works or you dont have a backup Minisd so try the MTTY...
I am CID locked G4
Download Official k-jam stock rom from the below link and flash it in Bootloaders,recover back to default status and than proceed further:-
http://www.imate.com/Support_DeviceSupport.aspx
G4 devices cannot be CID unlocked like a G3 phones,in this situation only official stock rom will get flashed,it contains IPL/SPL for both the devices,it shud flash and work.Than after recovering back ,Apply 'HardSPL' to semi-CID unlock the phone and upgrade to any wm6 rom,don't use Shelltool,it sometimes creates problem.
I don't think Backup rom through minisd with MTTY will work in this situation, but than, thats me !
OK I got the official rom, but same problem RUU says it hasnt got a connection the phone is in tricol boot load at this time, I think the issue is how to get a comunication between the RUU and the wizard in in Tricol mode surely someone has an answer on this?
OK.... it seems to be your PC...
When you plug your device via usb in the pc port the dev shows USB bottom left on screen... ? Does the PC shows you "Unknown device, please intall the drivers... or has a bad function"?
The USB cable... maybe your battery is low.... maybe the USB PORT... i dont imagine anymore problems... Try to get a full batt.. other USB cable and other PC XP of course... and retry.
OK a glimmer of hope,, I switched to another usb port windows loaded driver etc, then i ran the official rom ruu and,,,,,,,,,,,,,invalid ID cant run this utility,
does this mean I need the original software and how would I know what version that was,,,,,,,,cause I wasnt making notes
DAMN!!!!

FIIIUUUUU!!! it seem that you have comm conection betwen the RUU and the device... but Wrong ID?
Download the file zabardast told you... it is from your carrier.
If this is the one u have tried...
so try another one... from Tmobile prodigy 2.26... or from qtek 9100 2.19 official Stock ROMS.

hmmm,ok,download this RUU attached and extract it, replace this RUU with the RUU in the official rom and run this RUU from the Rom,hope it'll flash.
Or,download the K-jam official stock rom from here :-
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/K-JAM_WWE_21...20710_ship.zip
I tried all that and still not getting anywhere, constantly the same problem re connection I do get the found new hardware when trying different usb ports but the ruu complains " no connection" I cant seem to get what it did before in terms of getting further to the point where it told me invalid ID I will have to try another pc with xp but dont have one handy
Might not be bricked..

But how to get the image from SEUS?
Mate, you seem to have HardSPLed your X1 (because of the "Olinex"). Usually SEUS does not work anymore then. You have to download an image e.g. here in the forum. You can find lots right in this section. You have to decide between a Stock-ROM or a custom one. Then you install it just like you did with the HardSPL. How to do this exactly you can find more than once in the "Stickies".
I see someone told that if you're using Vista, just login with Admin user then it's ok
anmeldung...try restoring the original SPL even if it shows error, do this about 3 times, then attempt the SEUS update about 4 times.
strangely enough this method worked for me and SEUS also updated the rom from 0.72 to 0.78 before they identified my phone...now everything is back to normal

Error 626 when hard spl

I have successfuly flashed my X1 and im installing costum rom on them.
But now friend came with his X1 wanting me to install custom ROM on it.
I started Hard SPL unlocker and everything gone OK until it came to bootloader mode. Windows installed all drivers without problems but progress bars on both phone and pc were at 0%. After about half minute waiting at 0% it thrown out error 626. After that i taken battery out and back in and phone boots normally with Stock SPL.
A am suspecting that problem is in Stock SPL version. I have 0.72 while in Hard SPL thread it says 0.52 and maybe Hard SPL is not supported on this version.
I have searched about 626 but didnt find any solution.
Please help.
go to olinex hard spl section and write about your problem maby they can help u

Just got that error yesterday while updating my Rom and OS go to Settings, Connections, USBto PC, then choose active sync and check enable advance network. You might need to reboot your host pc to recognize changes on you mobile device.
Tried both checked and unchecked and dont work
I have managed to solve it!
Problem was newer Stock SPL.
What i did is installed image that contained old 0.52 SPL and now i can finally install Custom ROMS
Great!!! I will remember that one too.
