0. Make sure phone is hard-spl first
1. Make sure SD card is formatted with fat-32
2. rename the image file (ruu_signed.nbh) to rhodimg.nbh, then copy that to the ROOT OF THE MICRO SD CARD, Insert card into phone
3. Set your phone in bootloader (Hold the "volume down" and hold the power on button until you see the tri-color screen.
4. Then follow the on-screen instruction
5. (OPTIONAL) -after flash, make sure to hardreset (pull battery, insert battery then hold green and red PHONE buttons (send/end) and hold powerbutton) follow onscreen instruction.
thanks for the info
I've tried the above and somehow it won't work on my TP2, it stays at "Serial" text in the white box, I'm assuming it already went past the SD slot then? Checking for the image.
I have the Energy rom loaded on the SD card, named as explained in the first post in this topic, it is placed in the root of the SD card, no folders or other files exist on that card. I removed the SIM card from the phone just to be sure. Is there anything I am missing, or is there anyone else who actually used this method to flash his or her device?
Info:
SPL: OliNex 0.85
ROM: |RHOD|6.5|ROM|WWE| ★ EnergyROM "Warhawk" (23016) ★ | Built Aug 21 |Manila 2.5 / 2.1|
SD Card: 4GB MicroSDHC (No brand on card, supplied with the branded T-Mo TP2 (Vario V)
Formatted: fat-32
Thanks
The nbh file needs to be in capital letters! RHODIMG.nbh
And step 5 isnt to be done until the "Tap screen to set up device" screen!
Just reset when your phone says Update successful!
And done, name changed to the correct format. No luck. Reformatting the card now to see if that changes anything. Update in a few.
And that too didn't work sadly. Either someone here notices I'm doing something wrong, or I'll just wait till I get near a machine natively running Windows Running Mac OS here so can't run the executable, and read that it's not quite a good idea to flash it from a virtual OS.

You will want to partition your card so the nbh image is in a partion of at the largest 1G, anything larger makes it hard for the phone to find and read the nbh file! I have a 1G card just for flashing and it works perfect! And it also may be the mac, they never play nice with windows!
It's not the mac screwing it up in this case as I am using a virtual Windows OS to work on the card. (MacOS leaves some folders on the card that I don't want on it)
Will try partitioning the card, cheers. I'll update when I know more. ANd thanks for the help ^_^
Update:
Partioned the MicroSD card to 0.5GB, no change sadly.
thanks for information
Ok, SD update worked now, however, step 5 won't go (Oh crap...) Have the grey screen with "Update Complete" and "UPDATE SUCCESS" However, it won't do anything if I hold down Send/End/Power at the same time for over 10 seconds. How long should that take normally? What's my best option right now? Can't see any other than to unplug the phone and take out the battary, however, will this brick it?

Thanks for the swift reply! Done it, it's booting up as I am typing this. Didn't quite have the guts to just do that without having read I could when flashing from SD. (Was unsure how the device would react to soft reset then a first booth with the SD present etc)
Anyways, rambling. Thanks!
these post are telling me how to flash while the rom is already on the phone, but i'm missing the step on how to get the rom file on the phone in order to move it to the sd card.......... how do i get the file to the phone? do i put it onto the phone from the computer or do i go to my browser on my phone and download it from there to the phone

Everything you need to know is HERE. I really suggest you fully read the instructions so you avoid bricking your phone by mistake.
In re: making sure you're hardspl'd first, does that still apply if you're flashing an official ROM? Or just for user cooked ROMs?
I'm about to update my Verizon TP2 with the newly released official 6.5 from verizon. I'm not hard spl'd, and honestly, know very little about that particular modification.
not for official
I dont think you have to be hard SPL'd for an official ROM. I think everything is included in the ROM package. (at least for T-Mobile it is)
btw the .nbh does not have to be named in all capitals. I have personally done it both ways with no problems at all. RHODIMG.nbh works just as well as rhodimg.nbh

Thanks for the quick response!
Sadly, the way the install file is set up to work, I can't get to the nbh file. It insists on installing that via an active sync connection. I was hoping it would extract from the exe and schedule it for active sync installation, then I could hunt down the ROM, copy it to my SD card, and run it from there.

hmm.. sorry for kicking this post, but you can unpack the exe-file with winrar. just grab the biggest file you can find (RUU_signed.nbh, and rename it to rhodimg.nbh), copy it to your root-folder (fast way for accessing bootloader is to also copy the "EnterBootLoader.exe" -file to your SD-card, and to start that file after copying both the files). Now just enter the bootloader, and it works! (don't be scared when the screen goes black for a moment, and the bootloader has reloaded. It's meant to do that )
I still have a little question by the way: is it possible to flash the hardSPL this way? or should i rename it to something else?
No, Hard SPL needs to be done from the PC as it checks IMEI online and IP address. You only get 1 licence, can ask for more or purchase more licences, but it can't be done any other way...

Much obliged. I've actually been scared off the official vzw 6.5 because of issues upgraders have reported, but someday I'll put that to use.
Im sorry if i posted this in the wrong section; I have no clue where im suppose to post this ;\. Anyway, i followed this tutorial trying to jailbreak my g1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOo2V9qCauc. I downloaded the RC29(From the youtube tut) and put it into my sdcard and turned it off and on by holding the power and camera button. So i got to the part where it asked me to update my image but when i finished i got a update terminated msg instead of complete\successful. Then it kicked me to the colorful\rainbow screen with red green blue and white. I have no clue what i did wrong and no idea what im suppose to do now, can't turn off the phone or anything. Can somebody please help ;x! Thanks
I desperately wanted to post and say to say it failed bc you think your phone is an iphone (jailbreak). However, after reading your post i would say abandon a video and follow the root guide that is a sticky on here... look at the information thread above your post and look in there for the root guide.
When it says to get a recovery.img get cyans in the development thread. When it says get a rom, get cyans 4.0.2 stable cupcake... when you are all done i rec the community hero theme.
I typed all of that and this thread was right below yours

Dang i took out the battery and turn the phone back on but i went back to the update image part >_>; . No matter which choice i choose i end up at the colorful screen....(Choices are either update or not)
is your rc-29 named DREAIMG.nbh exactly named that caps and all. also is your sdcard formatted to fat32.
Snail....
I went to bed last night thinking you were fine. Could you post exactly what steps you have done? If you press red (power) + menu + green (call) your phone will reboot (no need to pull the battery).
Did you remove (delete using your computer) the .nbh file when you put the image and update.zip file on your SD? Did you get the files from the site you visited for the video?
I strongly suggest following my first post.
Just like everyone else said, follow our guides instead of some video on youtube. Make sure your card is formatted to fat32 and try to update again. If that still doesn't work it might have been a bad download. So download DREAIMG.nbh (RC29) again. You can check the MD5sum to make sure its a good download and update again. And by the way jailbreaking ain't the same as rooting.

Have you redownloaded the DREAIMG.nbh file. It was prolly just a bad download. Happens all the time, thats why you wanna check the MD5sum.

Yea I do its supremeteam256 on aim. I'm at work now so I can't do it on my computer and my phone signal might be hit or miss, but I'll still log on just deal with me if it shows me cuttin in and out. But what your going to have to do is either put the new DREAIMG.nbh on your sd card either by a card reader or another electronic device that you can transfer files over to the sd card. And the last option will be to mount your card using ADB and just push the file to your sd card. But as of right now it sounds like you can't access your phone because of the bad file. So once you get that file on your card then you would be able to boot holding camera + power and apply RC29. You'll be straight after that.
Yay got through with the image update part and now im stuck at the setup wizard part. Somehow my phone has problem with communicating with google servers when i type in my google account. And yes i don't have internet. I canceled it because i got this when it first came out and for the first 1-2months nothing worked on it such. None of the messengers work D:< so i had no use of internet so i end up cutting it xD.

You don't open it... it's utility
open command prompt (window key +R, type cmd) from there you can run adb commands (adb shell, adb pull, adb push or whatever else you need)

Hi all,
I have recently flashed a new rom onto my Kaiser and have since had loads of problems with the OS. It will flash fine and runs fine for the first half hour or so then the problems begin.
Programs will fail to open saying that they are not installed, when I go into file explorer or total commander I am unable to access the "program Files" folder on the device. At this point the system then starts to run slow and eventually crashes, upon rebooting it'll do a hard reset and I'm back to the beginning.
I have had a white screen twice on rebooting stating something like the OS or file are not accessiable press any button to hard reset. I am wondering if the internal memory is knackered?
Is there anyway of testing the internal memory? Like a windows check disc for windows mobile?
If anyone has any ideas and has a solution I would be grateful.
Cheers
Blinky
Radio 1.71.09.01
Prot Ver 25.75.40.02.eMoH

Try flashing a stock ROM first, then reflash with your intended ROM.
Cheers mate, worked a treat. Never needed to do that before but will remember it from now on.
Thanks again.

I have created this post because I was honestly baffled by the NAND install threads for the Vogue that I found, that claimed to be "straightforward" and simple, but the people who wrote them leave a lot of gaps that you have to figure out. Perhaps they have been doing it for so long now, that they just 'assume' you will know stuff, so here are step-by-step instructions for someone who has zero experience with Android, and all they know is that they have a Window mobile phone.
So, Here is the NAND install process (will install Android to your internal memory, which is much better than running from the SD card) for the HTC Vogue (240x320), CDMA or GSM. I believe this is the most straightforward tutorial on this entire site, and all files you need are provided in this post; no file-hunting necessary like with other tutorials. Keep in mind, this process will wipe your internal memory and replace it with Android, so you should backup any personal files you have stored on the phone. If you have a CDMA phone (Verizon, Sprint, etc.) then you should make sure to backup your Contacts using a 3rd party program. GSM phones however (ATT, T-Mobile, etc.), typically store their contacts to a SIM card, which is not altered by this process. You do not need to backup your SD card, since it is also not altered when installing Android.
Dependencies: This process works for any ROM release that provides an "androidinstall.tar" file in their download package.
First and foremost, make sure you have unlocked your phone ("2.31 CoKe" HardSPL for CDMA Vogues). If you have ever flashed a custom Windows ROM from this site or ppcgeeks.com, to your device, then you most likely already have an unlocked phone. If not, perform the steps HERE first, before continuing AND flash to a custom Windows Mobile ROM (non-stock) and make sure your phone is provisioned (you can get and receive calls), and that you can use data (if you have a data plan).
1. Wipe your SD card, and make sure it is formatted FAT32
2. Create a new folder in the root of the SD card called "andboot"
3. Download the ROM release package of your choice (for example, you can download the 240x320 version of Myn’s Warm Donut - [RLS 5 - 04/24/2010] HERE)
4. Extract files from STEP 3 and put ONLY the "androidinstall.tar" file in the andboot folder on the SD card, by itself (no other files are needed)
5. You are DONE putting files on your SD card. At this point, put the SD card into your phone.
6. Download the latest NBH file that begins with "voguimg-240x320-..." (needed for all Vogue Android ROMs): HERE
7. Download the RUU Update Utility (needed for all Vogue Android ROMs): HERE
8. Rename the NBH file to from STEP 6 to "RUU_signed.nbh" and place it inside the folder with all the other files from STEP 7
9. Now, put your Vogue in bootloader mode: Hold down power, camera, and the small reset hole (with your stylus), until you see the tri-color screen, and it says "Serial" at the bottom
10. Plug your phone into your computer, and the "Serial" text should change the "USB"
11. Now, run the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" from STEP 7, and click the "Next" or "OK" buttons to go through the flash/ROM update process, until your phone shows a progress bar on its screen and is updating.
12. As soon as that progress bar finishes the phone will automatically reboot; at this point unplug the phone from the computer
13. Now, watch carefully during the Linux boot process...there will be a quick message that says "Hold down Volume Up or D Pad". Just press and hold the center D-Pad button until you see the screen change to the installer menu. If you happen to miss it, and it continues loading, then just use your stylus to press the reset button (it will not hurt the phone or any files to try again as many times as you need to.)
14. You will now see a black and white menu. Select option 1, to "Install..."
15. Select "Yes" on the recommended prompt that follows
16. Once it says the Install process is complete and it returns you to the menu, just reboot your phone with the reset button
17. At this point just WAIT. Do NOT press the volume up button again, and do not do anything until you see the Android desktop. You may get an error saying that it could not find a file or something like that, but just ignore it...do not get impatient! Pretty soon the Android progress bar will show on the screen (might take up to 5 minutes), then the Android desktop will load.
DONE. Enjoy Android on your Vogue! You can now delete all the files on the SD card if you wish...Android will recreate anything it needs on boot-up each time.
MASS STORAGE FIX (USB to PC): You can get the Mass Storage fix HERE so that your storage card will show up as a drive on your computer. This is a widget, and not ROM specific, so should work for any Android ROM.
KAISER WI-FI FIX (for the Kaiser phone ONLY!): Download the Wi-Fi fix HERE (intended for use with 'myn's Warm Eclair RLS1', linked in STEP 3)
I do not ask for donations, just say 'Thanks' if this helped you.

UPDATE: This Thread is now featured on Wired.com's News Site!! Link: http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/04/windows-mobile-android/

please elaborate on step 8. what are we extracting here
Great post. Just some clarifications I thought would be helpful.
1. reminder to all - you can use SDHC cards for this, those being greater than 2gb, but make sure you format them to FAT32.
5. in some instances there are androidupdate.tar files that go with the build too, in which case that too needs to be placed in the same andboot folder
8. clarification, you'll be replacing the RUU_signed.nbh file with the 320 nbh file you download. So, you'll have to delete the ruu_signed.nbh that came with the update utility, and rename your downloaded 320 nbh to ruu_signed.nbh and place it in the update utility folder so it uses that file instead.
9. to enter bootloader mode you have to press those 3 buttons down for about 2 seconds, not just a quick tap. This bootloader is your failsafe fallback to reinstall if your operating system goes funky.
13. If volume up isn't working for you, try holding down the button in the middle of the directional pad. The last nbh file I used required this instead of the awkward volume-up. Regardless, be sure to do this quickly as soon as the phone reboots itself.
16. After the install process is complete you'll be brought back to the same menu you arrived at by holding down the button on startup, you may then select "update" or "upgrade" from that same menu to activate the androidupdate.tar file you may have copied to your andboot folder. Once done, just select "exit" or reset.
17. He's not kidding, first boot can take a very long time.
If you run into problems and just need a functional phone for a bit, download the nfsfan rom (or any other custom roms), put phone into bootloader and run the nfsfan rom utility from your windows desktop. Don't reinstall a locked carrier-specific rom that you might have used to update your radios otherwise I understand your Coke bootloader gets wiped out and you'll have to do that again. Alternatively, there is an older, dummy-proof Android ION build that will install the entire ION build through the rom update utility to your nand at http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/2009-12-17/androidinstall.zip/download
I'm no super-expert so if I have any misinformation in my post, or there are other shortcuts, please feel free to edit it or let me know and i'll modify it.

You're looking for the vogue 320 files, not the vogue eclair 320 files unless you're installing an eclair (2.x) build.
The .nbh files are usually referenced on the build thread in the forums, but if they are not head over to http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/ and download the latest.
(NOTE: I suggest you run at least the Feb 23 build at http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D as it enables the openGL support)

it keeps hanging up at the progress bar and both stay at 0% it looks like the active sync is gone once in bootloader it goes gray and then its gone from tray in bottom right corner. it seems like once in bootloader mode i have no active sync connection it just hangs Then the updater goes into its recovery any help please

Activesync has nothing to do with updates via the rainbow screen bootloader and will not sync.
You have already install the Coke bootloader? What OS are you running?
Thank you so much. Been needing something like this since the other NAND tutorials for Android didn't tell you what files to use or had outdated/non-working links.

What OS are you running on your computer?
The ROM update utility really just installs the .nbh file which is somewhat of a front-end loader mechanism. Once that file is installed, then the phone resets, you hold down a button and you enter into the menu that lets you actually install android from the androidinstall.tar file in your andboot folder.
Here is a fail-proof method that I think will resolve your goofy androidinstall folder.

http://74.53.45.2/~evadmin/nfsfan/Public Releases/Vogue 6.5/ROMS/NFSFAN's WM6.5 1.00 FINAL ROM.rar
Then replace the .nbh file with the vogue 320 nbh. Then, run it when your phone is already in the bootloader screen.
Excellent post
I'm linking this from Warm Donut on the first post.

What OS are you running on your computer?
The ROM update utility really just installs the .nbh file which is somewhat of a front-end loader mechanism. Once that file is installed, then the phone resets, you hold down a button and you enter into the menu that lets you actually install android from the androidinstall.tar file in your andboot folder.

XP Pro always worked well for me. I'm running Win7 x64 ultimate and recently my phone was recognized as a USB Sync Device in the bootloader mode which doesn't work for the rom update utility. This was occurring both with and without the installation of the MS Mobile Device Center app. To solve this I installed XP Mode and attached the usb device to the XP Mode and it recognized correctly as the Qualcomm MSM thing.
Just an FYI.

Used the windows file manager to browse to the SD card, and ran haret.exe
I see the dialog come up, with the progress bar. it reaches the end then goes to a black screen, frozen with this message on it
