Blackstone down... need assistance - Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development

Hello,
I need some help with my HTC Blackstone. After numerous attempts to upgrade my ROM to Miri_WM61_21054_Manila_2.5_V2.1.rar and EnergyROM BLACKSTONE 20090829 StandardM2.5.rar (WM6.5) I succeeded in “breaking” my phone.
My ROM version was 1.56.401 (installed the update from htc.com: RUU_BlackStone_HTC_Europe_1.56.401.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe).
First I tried the EnergyROM using the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe and SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe but I kept getting the 262 and 260 errors. After I downloaded the Miri_WM61_21054_Manila_2.5_V2.1.rar and also tried with the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe and SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe and I kept getting the same errors. Then I had the brilliant idea to try the BlackstoneRUUWrapper.exe that was in the Miri archive. The progress bar went from 0 to 100% in 3sec and then I realized that I did something bad.
Now everything is in green tones on my display but when I turn it off and then back on the colours come back to normal. Also the Windows is working very very hard. I managed to sync it with the PC and install the ROM from HTC website RUU_BlackStone_HTC_Europe_1.56.401.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe but I have the same problem.
Can somebody please provide a solution to fix my phone.
Thanks

connect ur phone in active sync mode with ur pc.
then run the HSPL olines wrapper.
ull enter a tricoloured screen which will say 1.56.OLINEX.
disconnect and reconnect ur USB cable.
Run the EXE in the downloaded ROM.
ull be ready with the new rom..
this is assuming u have Win XP. for other OS u need to dnload drivers from the thread mentioned in the above post.

Generally speaking if you are experiencing discolourization it is because your SPL is incorrect.
Check your SPL in bootloader. Then follow this guide. Any future queries regarding flashing should be posted in that thread and myself or others will help you. If no one responds PM me and I'll respond next time I'm online.

i-mate KJAM stuck on bootloader

Hello everyone,
First - I'm really happy to have found this resource. I had no idea about all the cool things I could do to my phone. Thanks to everybody for all your hard work.
I spent a lot of time reading up with the goal of upgrading to a Windows Mobile 6 ROM. But now I need some help please, because I can't get my phone back!
I determined that my phone is a G4 (IPL/SPL of 2.16.0001). I attempted to load various WM6 Roms (TNT 4.0 Official and XDA Mobile 6), without success (error 300). Eventually, I succeeded in loading Wizard Love 2.26.10.2, and booted into Windows successfully. I then tried to load TNT 4.0 on. It got up to 100%, rebooted - and now I am stuck on the RGB / bootloader screen. Plugging in USB cable gives me the USB txt in the bottom left, but no response from the computer. The various RUU utilities I have tried to restore the phone back to Wizard Love or official iMate ROMs all fail - they can't seem to find the phone.
I would greatly appreciate any help. Thanks you in advance.
Regards,
Nick
Progress!
More research led me to find that WinXP should be able to install a new ROM without ActiveSync - in fact, you need to disable ActiveSync USB connections and end wscecomm.exe via task manager.
These steps allowed me to attempt flashing of a new ROM:
1. Uninstall device from device manager
2. Turn off device completely
3. Disable USB in ActiveSync
4. End process "wscecomm.exe" via Task Manager
5. Plug in phone, windows will detect and install as a Windows CE. This will make wscecomm.exe load again. End this before running the RUU tool
6. Run RUU. When detecting your phone, it will run wscecomm.exe. I kept ending it and crashing the RUU . RUU stops it itself.
7. Finally my phone was detected and I was able to proceed to flashing without an RUU error. Previously, i was getting error 260, 264, 300...
I was greedy and attempted to load XDA Mobile 6. It got to 99% and crashed. I will try and get back to Wizard Love.
If somebody could tell me what I am missing / doing wrong that would be great. To summarise:
- I have been able to install Wizard Love
- I have a G4 i-mate KJAM
- TNT 4.0 has reached 100%. On reboot, I only got boatloader.
- After many hours trying to fix, I finally was able to attempt to flash XDA 6 r2. It reached 99% before crashing
I will now try to put Wizard Love back on, but I really want to run WM 6.0 and am not very concerned about which flavour. Thanks for your help
No...You shouldn't use RUU for upgrading to WM6 because your G4 is not unlocked (You need to pay to unlock a G4, however it is not required if you don't use RUU).
Flash to Wizard Love, then get a copy of ShellTool and use it to flash the nk.nbf inside WM6 RUU.
no worries. I have the same phone and running XDA r2a, so it can be done!
Simply get hold of G4_step_by_step_install_wm6 I think theres a link to rapidshare on this forum, try search. (I will try get the link later on.) Follow the steps and it has shelltool which will extract th OS for and you can then install. Make sure you get the splash screens from XDA thread so you get the full package.
Good luck

Hey guys - thanks so much, I can't wait to get stuck into it.
You know I spent my whole weekend getting into this stuff and I'm sure I have only just scratched the surface!
I think it's fantastic that so many of you put so much work into this, and then also have time to guide people through the process.
Regarding the FTP links throughout these forums - They never seem to work for me. I get an error 550 - failed to change directory. These are links with usernameassword of xda:xda. The only link that worked had something different, along the lines of xdaupload:xda, can't remember for sure.
What am I doing wrong?
Just get the G4_step_by_step, forget everything else. Its on rapidshare. It has even a WM6 Rom in it so you can even that on your Wizard. But you can install XDA R2a also by following the step by step guide and knowing what to replace. Have you downloaded it? Its about 75MB but well worth every bit of it! You wont need anything else after that.
We learn from each other! Thats why we help others so they help us too

The forum carried many ROMs before. Micro$oft had some opinion on this and hence the ROMs were all removed. Most of the 550 errors would be due to this.

did you do this (prefereble on an XP machine)
Phone Synced with PC
run X1_HardSPL.exe
follow on screen instruction, including after getting the drivers installed on you xp or vista machine installed, so the hardSPL will make the phone in bootloader and make sure it says 100% done on you xperia. and XP VISTA
then put inte bootloader holding down volyme button and power until tricolor screen is shown, and make sure that the imgage.nbh file is named correctly.
'
then it should work.
the most common failure is that the hardspl isnt installed correctly.

DO NOT I REPEAT
DO NOT
use the hardspl custom RUU for flashing roms.
this is from the 1st post of the HARDSPL thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218
NOTE 4: do not use this RUU to flash anything else! this is only intended for flashing the Hard-SPL. use Xperia CustomRUU to flash other ROM images. for example this version: http://rapidshare.com/files/164933503/X1_CustomRUU.zip

IF you have finished hard-spl properly it should say 0.72.Olinex, I'd suggest doing hardspl all over again
thanx bro for replying...during hard spl process it never asked for any drivers, i will try this on xo machine and see what happens,
and i dont understand about customs roms, jack's rom is a custom rom right? so which hard spl file do i need ?

do the SD WAY, but remember to rename xxxxx.nbh to kovskimg....nbh otherwise it wont load it, se sticky post here in ropm section.
the driver issue is for XP AND VISTA when still in tricolor screen thn vista will install driver needed for hardspl to work (to recognise the device), as i stated the most common is that the hardspl isnt correctly installed.
hope you got it bro..
It sounds like you're getting confused between RUU and NBH
Ruu is the process for upgrading your phone with a new rom.
RUU stands for
Rom
Upgrade
Utility
nbh is the actual rom
there's only one Hard SPL available in the hardspl thread.
Run that again and let it complete, it should work from booloader mode on your phone.
when that is finished and your device in bootloader says 0.72.olipro then you can flash a rom.
If you use the SD Card method the whatever ROM file you choose must be called KOVSimg.nbh and be in the main section (root) of the SD card.
If you want to flash from desktop take the SD card out first.
Download the RUU I linked to in my last post. Extract that and make sure the nbh rom is called RUU_signed.nbh put it inthe ruu folder then start the RUU process.

read #2 post @ jack's ROM thread
Some cabs and extra files you may need.
1. X1 Panel package to add panel back (divided into sub cabs)
extract the .rar file then it'll show you the panels cab
install Jack Sony X1 Panel Main.cab first then u can install other panels
sorry cant help you with the xperia logo
ok i want to get back to my stock rom..is there anyway to do that?
how to remove this rom so i can install the orignal rom, by connecting with SE software update utility?
this rom is fast stable but its not only me how use this device.so others dont like the way programs and startmenu are showing.
Usb-driver
I have the same problem when trying to flash with XP. I have tried two different computers but have the same problem. It seems that there is some usb-drivers missing. One time i got an error in XP when rebooting the X1 that the usb-device not working correct.
Can not flash by computer
Can not flash using card
The problem occurs when trying to install ROM
Result: When running RUU. Reboot= OK, Tricolour =OK, Process freeze after "loading" apperas (when *.nbh is supposed to start loading.) SPL never finish.
Anoyone knows which driver i need?
don't forget to disable any firewalls and possibly antivirus... This was the problem for me when using Hardspl and Zonealarm suite... So switched off Zonealarm and Hardspl just worked.... [oh and any windows firewalls]
Will try again tonight without FW and antivirus...
However... i have successfully upgraded ROM using SE Update software earlier... The USB worked fine at that time.

Yes. Just download the generic ROM from the ROM thread and follow the exact same steps as for a custom ROM. Also, look for answers yourself before asking questions that have answers stickied
Spiff76, SE update uses a different way to access your phone. hardSPL can be considered a "hack", which is why antivirus etc. might detect it.
Hmmm... turned of FW and antivirus but same result. RUU freezes after reboot and tricolour. When phone is supposed to start loading new ROM it just freezes and i get a connection-error message.
I believe it has to do with the usb-connection but i can not figure out how to solve it. Have also tried ti install via card without any luck. Same problem remain... i can not get the SPL to finish.
Have any one experienced similar problem and how was it solved. It can not be a biggie but it is really ***.
As said, running this on XP. USB works fine with active sync and in usb to PC-mode.

Most probably YOU HAVE NOT DONE THE HARD-SPL FLASH FIRST
Please CHECK your tricolour screen: the world "olinex" must be there, which means you correctly flahsed the "olinex HARD-SPL" to your device
READ again. It's all written there (sticky posts)
First of all why should i ASK if there WAS AN ANSWER TO BE READ???
I have:
1. Tried to flash using exact intructions in:

Yes, the STICKY POST!
2. I have tried to flash from card whit hard_SPL:

And of course:

I have changed cables, ports. The flash seems OK, it says "olinex" in boot-loader but it has never finished.
Have searched the forum for other similar problems and found this thread.
I do not feel the need of repeating myself. Was hoping for some help and answers...

HTC Touch HD T8285-WM6.5

I have been trying different roms to try to upgrade my phone to WM6.5 and so far the roms I've tried won't even load onto my phone. The download status bar will come up but it goes nowhere then it says update error. The phone will turn back on and work with the stock WM6.1
I'm just looking for a very clean OEM style WM6.5 ROM. Any recommendations?

Have you read the Dummies Guide? If not, you should do this. Just try some roms to see what fits better to your needs.
Assuming you hardspl or setup for USPL prior to flashing any ROM's. I have the 8285 and run the following ROM's: NRG LEO, PDAVIET LEO, and MIRI's LEO based ROM's. I personally keep going back to NRG as I have followed him from other devices and like his work. All the cooks are great. I also flash from SD card vs. using Activesync, find it faster and more reliable.
NRG is clean and mostly bug free ? yea from what you're saying maybe I did do something wrong. I'm not too advanced on this, I downloaded the energy rom and tried to update it. I've done nothing previous

well then that's why you're having problems for sure. as others have mentioned follow the Dummies Flashing Guide. if you're using HardSPL, make sure the top (RED) section of your bootloader looks like this Pic of Bootloader with HardSPL. when it looks like this, you're ready to flash a ROM!!
OK I found the 156OliNex.zip file. I put the phone into bootloader mode, when I tried to launch the file it would not execute. It flashes up on the screen for a second and that's it. I made sure that the windows firewall is turned off
Best, the least error, safest flashing tool USPL
i highly recommend you use USPL : I still yet have to see someone who had a problem after using USPL. This is even endorsed by Dutty Throy (you can see that he even states that this is the SAFEST METHOD) - Moderator ROM Cooker par excellence!
look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
and here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462347
format your sd card using fat32 (full format) (if you are a frequent flasher I suggest you get a small capacity sd card – 1Gb - and devote this only for flashing)
rename the RUU_signed.nbh to BLACIMG.nbh and pair this with ROMUpdateUtility -(application file). copy this two files in you formatted sd card.
then using Digital Outcast's USPL GUI: look here

if you're using Vista see this to update your sync driver
http://www.modaco.com/content/windo...u-on-vista-it-can-be-done-the-ultimate-guide/
flash the ROM.
please let me know once you've done this succesfully, i wish you the best of luck!

do you have .Net installed on your PC? if not, you need to install first. if you have .Net installed, retrace your steps to make sure you've got everything setup properly, e.g., installing the driver supplied in the thread. also, if you have problems please post your questions in the Dummies thread...the moderators will close threads like this one because "all" the info you need to flash can be accessed from the Dummies thread.
yes I have NET installed on my computer. I tried using the files in the dummies guide and had issues
OK. so I finally got the NRG energy rom installed and it shows up distorted on the screen.

if you're using a WM 6.5 ROM then you do not have the right SPL installed.... look at Post #5 and make sure your bootloader looks like the one in my picture; if it doesn't then you haven't installed SPL 1.56 Olinex. again, please post your questions in the Dummies thread, you'll get appropriate help there... thanks!
I want to thank everyone for their input. I finally got a rom installed and working properly
I just wanted to thank everyone for their ideas and input. I finally got a rom installed and working on my phone

Unable to flash my ROM. Please help

I ave read the site a lot and have a major problem. I am unable to flash a new ROM. I know the problem is the SPL but am unable to update the SPL with neither HSPL nor a USPL.
To give some info, I am on Windows XP, Windows Mobile Decive Centre 6.1 (installeed, uninstalled and reinstalled a zillion times now). I have even tried updating a RRU driver ripped off from Activesync 4.5 but nothing really works. I do ave .NET 4.5 installed on my PC so that isn't a concern either.
Can you guys please help me and suggest a solution.
Thanks a lot for all your help in advance.

[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.
