[FIXED] SPL 1.54 / HSPL Problem

I think I've been a total idiot and messed up my HD. I hope there's a way to salvage the situation!
I was attempting to flash a 1.56 ROM so tried to downgrade to SPL 1.54; this was going along nicely until it encountered an error and tried to re-start the flash. Now the device is stuck on "Loading..." before begining the flashing process.
If I soft-reset the device, the SPL has changed to 1.54.0000 according to the Bootloader screen but it says "Upgrade ROM code error Please try again".
I've googled that error message and found a few hits but none of them presented a solution; just people asking this question.
Since that, I've tried to Hard-Reset but it brings me back to the same Bootloader error.
I've tried to flash a ROM but the device can't connect to Activesync to use the RUU_Wrapper and flashing via the BLACIMG.nbh on my SD card won't work either; it just goes back to the same Bootloader error screen and gets stuck on the "Loading..." again.
I've also tried to flash the new HSPL which is 1.56 capable but that suffers the same problem.
Anyone have any suggestions? Please? Never encountered anything like this in years of flashing my Blueangel and Tytn.
Full details from my bootloader screen:
RUUNBH
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
Upgrade ROM code error
Please try again

That doesn't seem to be the same problem as the one I'm encountering. I found that thread via Google as I said I had searched in my post and flashing the stock HTC ROM that came with my device did nothing to solve the problem; 3 machines here, one running XP, one running Vista and one running 7 all fail to connect to the device to allow for any sort of flashing and flashing via an SD card does not provoke a response either.

Sorry - realised that my reply sounded a little stroppy! Blame it on the stress of having a possible brick on my hands! Thanks for the attempt to help but, like it says above, that solution hasn't worked for me

Have you tried reading cRaCKwHoRe's guide for flashing 1.56 roms. Can be found in my signature. If you follow his steps, you should have no problems

Hi, dom_mitchell1...did you manager to fix you HD ? I have encountered the "exact" same problem...I went from 1.56 to 1.54...and now I am stuck on the bootloader at "Loading...." If you have a fix...can you please let me know...and save my HD as well....thx

If you use USPL you will be able to flash everything you want.

That's what I was following when things went wrong. Don't know what I did but during the downgrade process the flash "encountered an error" and had to restart....only it never did and just left me stuck in the bootloader with an error message.
It's fixed up now though and I'm running Dutty's shipped version quite happily. To fix it I tried different .msi packages from HTC and eventually one of them managed a successful flash. From there I was able to continue with cRaCKwHoRe's guide.

i had a similar problem i was upgrading to 1.56 so i to my thinking reverted to a stock rom them loaded 1.14 stock spl where my phone started showing the error screen i investigated and found that the stock rom id downlosded from the stock rom section must have been tampered with as the signarure was incommplete. so now the spl was reading 114000... as it was stuck in tri screen the data had loaded to my device it justxwasnt signed so wouldnt work i dowladed the appropriat 1.56 rom from htc which includdes the new 1.54spl started it and there i whent stock 1.56 rom with stock 1.54 spl. i than loaded olinexs new hspl im running vista so had to use the manual tool but othere than that installed ok.
i hope that helped in short as long as ur screen is reading a stock spl u can install an apropriat 1.56 rom from htc i belive the issue is caused by impropper signage of some stuff marked as stock here.

Green Fuzzy Screen/Stuck Airplane Mode & Can't Recover

Hey,
Ok so my attempts are failing at upgrading to Dutty's latest ROM. I've followed everything in the USPL section in crackwhore's dummies guide, and I keep getting a [262] Update Error, and it sticks at 0% on the phone.
I then followed the other dummies guide about using USPL, and downloaded the latest blac_uspl and ran than. That worked fine, and I got the ROM installed, but then suffered from the green fuzzy screen and being stuck in airplane mode. So I tried again, and had the same problem. I then used that blac_uspl and installed from SD, but still had the same problem.
This is driving me mad, I can't seem to find anything on here which works and now my phone's not working
Can anyone pleease help??

you have the wrong SPL for newer roms, Crackwhore's post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377 and typing green screen into the search box should help, question gets asked a lot.

Ok I've just read that for 1.56+ ROMs I need HSPL. I was worried about installing that because I've read that if not done correctly it will brick the phone. But I'm guessing that's what I need to install first?

You either need the standard SPL version 1.54 (which can also be flashed by using USPL and an official stock 1.56 rom), or HSPL 1.56. Yes it's possible to brick a phone by having a bad SPL flash, but a standard rom upgrade from HTC flashes the SPL anyway (unless you have HSPL 1.56 installed which protects itself)
I use HSPL - I don't care about the warranty issues.

Ok well I'll try and flash the HSPL 1.56 and keep my fingers crossed!!

Don't worry...it worked for me and will work for you...
Hey Moderators, this is a good topic do be deleted isn't it? (Repeated issue)

stuck on 0% cannot flash hspl yes i did search the forum

Hello,
i am trying to upgrade my spl version to 1.56 to be able to use the 1.5x roms
currently my device is a mess :
radio : 1.10.25.25
rom : 1.56.47.601
SPL : 1.14 stock
i cant flash from active sync because that causes wm 6.5 to crash
when i boot on spl, then launch hspl1.56, the transfer stays stuck at 0% then HSPLwrapper goes to recovery mode.
I have tried on several PCs
I have seen a post about an HTC diamond stuck on 0% that said i had to use the developer version of HSPL, but i m not sure what i downloaded, and it was for the diamond so i didnt go ahead.
Someone please help me get the device functionnal again X'( ?

Enter bootloader.
run uspl 2.5 on pc
wait for the fone to reboot to the bootloader.
it'll show 1.xx.uspl
now run the hspl olinex wrapper.

No idea why HTC is releasing this rom now "OFFICIALLY" as they.
The rom date says 17th April, 2009 and this was available at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Ship_exe if I'm not wrong.

Uspl is not something you flash on to your phone like the hardspl, it is executed in your windows operating system of your personal computer, it is like a medium which allows to flash unsigned ROMs on to the HTC blackstone a.k.a HTC Touch HD from your computer. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7 be sure to downgrade your drivers and disable the driver signature enforcement in vista and Windows 7 and yes you can flash other ROMs by using Uspl even if you have hardspl on your device because it will not overwrite yout Hardspl. Try searching and reading through the forum for the answers. i hope i have shed enough light for you to pass through your problem. have fun flashing. enjoy

I hate to say this but..... HELP!!!

I've been lurking with the XDA forum for quite sometime now and its my very first posting and I'm having difficulties finding answers on search box I just simply give up looking for appropriate answer to my question. Since I like to use the good old Winmo 6.1 rom (Davideuck_V-7_MSVC to be exact)my bad is I forgot to SPL to earlier version 1.15 so got a green kinda thing on my screen, so I apply Restore_Stock_SPL_115 and everything went fine. (I know I'm stupid ) Unfortunately after I update the Time and Date it suddenly appear " This concludes the beta test for this software release....... blah, blah,.... guess what? its a time bomb can't do anything on screen but to reset. So I decide to re-flash it again but I got stuck at 0% on bootloader mode and got Error 262, I tried to understand whats the meaning of it and I did, but never got any solution how? I tried to flash it with HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex to restore Winmo 6.5 but I got stuck again on 0%. something unusual I tried to reflash more roms and it didn't work. All the Roms I've wont reach 1% Even flashing on SD card trick wont load. And my spl ver 1.15 can't flash anything. So I that's why I need your help desperately...

Near enough the exact same situation as me! I think that 1.15 file may have issues.

If you are getting an Error 262, you need to run manual sspl in order to resolve this. Read this post for the steps (post #2) and sspl tool (post #1) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377. You can also get all of the steps needed to successfully flash. if you have questions, please post them in that thread.

It seems when I restart my phone normally, I noticed that the message about " This concludes the beta test for this software release....... blah, blah" the manila interface was behind it when I press the task manager and the volume buttons it responses means its not bricked (hope so) maybe the reason why I cant flash anything? Or whatever...Well that's my observation..... Please guys I needed my phone badly tomorrow

Did you not read my post . You can flash another rom, error 262 is common. You just need to use sspl before flashing to hspl 1.56.

if ur stuck with hspl and cant flash that than try uspl or try stock rom.... they get installed without hspl or uspl installed.... its available in the blackstone wiki section

and with stock rom get through tomorrow . than try hspl or uspl with custom rom later on when u have free time

Upgrade the ROM with latest official HTC release it upgrades the bootloader to ver 1.54 as well. Then you can install the newest version of HSPL or just use USPL to flash whatever cooked ROM you want.

Apologies on replying again here instead of posting on the designated thread , but forgive my innocence the thread says "" launch SSPL-Manual.exe from attachment, run it, wait until 1.07.OliNex tricolour screen says "USB" on it, then run the HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe on the PC. "" how exactly that's going to be done? Currently I got the tri-color screen saying SPL-1.15.0000 and a USB on the bottom and when I flash either hspl or uspl I always end up on gray screen with a 0% that doesn't move at all, how can I manually apply SSPL? I cant access Manila interface because of time bomb message? My life's getting complicated!

If possible try flashing from an XP box, Vista/7 might give you some additional trouble if you don't use the right drivers. But if you get to the 0% screen, the issue shouldn't be with the SPL... so don't worry, I doubt the phone is bricked
So: try XP and/or using the drivers provided in the Flashing-thread

Did you downloaded the ROM from the HTC site? If the ROM is from the official site try again using USPL.

I seach the wiki page and found the latest version which is "Blackstone_WWE_1.56.405.1" and I can't find it on the official site, it should be "WWE" not specifying on certain countries, so I manage to download it from Rapidshare link. and for the SSPL I don't think I can do that coz I can't access my phone coz it has tim bomb probably the main culprit here.

Any flashing problems should be posted in Dummies Guide thread.
