splash screens

after installed a few ROMs on my i-mate k-jam, I wanted to reinstall the official rom but i had some problems...
for installing the k-jam official ROM i had to install first the Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii_CF2 ROM (otherwise the official one doesn't install). after installing the wizard love my splash screens were changed and the official ROM doesn't install her splash screens, so now i have an i-mate k-jam with K-JAM Italian ROM Build 2.18.9.1 ITA but with the splash screens of the wizard love... how can I install the official splash screens?
PS: i've got a G4

change all 3 splash screens

That's weird
The hard-SPL let you flash custom roms on your device.
Maybe the hard-SPL is included in the Touch-it, not sure about that
As long you don't have problems, there's no reason to worry about

i didn't used it either, and didn't start with the touch rom, but another one.
And don't have any problems yet, can flash every rom
greatz
Patrick

there is no need to make a hard spl every time you flash a rom. The first hard spl you do will stay "forever" and allows you to flash as many custom roms as you want.
Dont forget to read the forums. There are a lot of helpful FAQs and threads around. Just do a search.

Woo Hoo !
i will buy pizza for all you guys !

last flash i forgot the hard spl, too. But instead of flashing the new rom my phone stays at the old one...
very strange ^^ reflash with hardspl helps

Yeah like someone said before
The Hard SPL stays
only if you have some problems you can reflash it with hard SPL again and with a custom roms, but if you don't have any probs, you don't have to do it anymore ;-)
I'm not sure if this is correct (correct me if i'm wrong), but if you flash your phone with an official rom/firmware, the hard-spl-thing will be gone.
So after flashing with an official rom/fw, you'll need to flash the hard-spl again if you want a custom rom on it.

hm... i think you have missunderstand me... ^^
I wasn't able to flash the new Custom Rom. I tried to do so and the phone was in bootloader mode and then there comes the thing that says "23%" ... "24%" and so on...
But after the Soft Reset ("...100%") there wasnt the new rom on my phone but the old one...
So that didnt work for me...
I think you have to flash the hard spl every time before you can flash a custom rom

No, you don`t need too, HardSPL stays forever.

And why wasn't I able to flash a new rom without hardspl first?

Because, before you flash custom rom for the first time, you need to HardSPL first, but only one time.

Remove, duplicate post

hm... This was my 30. flash of a custom rom, I think.

Can`t say, .nbh file was damaged in some way, but if u flash same file after HardSPL, hmm.. wierd Never happend to me.

You have to READ and understand first before jumping into Flashing ROMs. Out of all the ROMs out there... Flashing Dutty's 2.7 is the most confusing, especially if you are new to ROM Flashing.
First of all, you would have to flash HSPL (Hard SPL) or USPL (Universal SPL) on your device to flash Cooked or Custom ROMs. Do a bit of reading on these 2 topics on the forum.
Learn about Bootloader mode.
Then go through the ROMs that are posted on the forum. Go through their change log, features, tweaks and programs that come with the ROM. Usually most of the Chefs post Change Logs and Screen shots of their ROMs. Go through the last few pages of the thread to know about any issues and solutions.
Then decide on the ROM you are interested in and go ahead with flashing your deivce.
Now, regarding the current state of your deivce... I am not really sure what exactly you did.
Try Removing the battery and put it back.
While holding down the Volume Down button, press the Power button. Your phone will enter the Bootloader mode (Tri color screen, rather 4 clolored sceen with White at the end).
Download one of the Stock ROMs they are also called Ship ROMs. Please do not download ROMs with version number 1.56.XXX. They are the latest ROMs and since I am not sure what state your device is in, I would recommend you to download a 1.14.XX version Stock ROM.
Then connect your device while in Bootloader mode and run the Stock ROM. You would get your device back to the original state that you bought it.

Thanks

Read the instructions properly. Here's the simplified version:
1. Flash a stock rom (e.g. 1.14.xxx) with 1.14 SPL. They also include the stock radio.
2. Flash stock SPL 1.14
3. Flash a 1.56.xxx stock rom (with 1.54 SPL). It also includes a new stock radio.
4. Run USPL 2.5(!).
5. Run the included RUUWrapper and install dutty's rom

kieboy
3. Flash a 1.56.xxx stock rom (with 1.54 SPL). It also includes a new stock radio.
do you have a link for that?

sorry
I found it myself, but thanks for the help

Potentially Broken T.HD - Need help!

Hi All,
I have used the search function - but ended up getting confused.
I have a Touch HD that I bought in January of this year (2009) from Mobiles.co.uk (Carphone Warehouse) and is on the O2 network (UK).
I have been using Dutty's ROMs (both 6.1 and 6.5) for months now - and have always used USPL when flashing, using the SD card method.
Over the past 3 days, my HD has been playing up.
When it started, I was using Dutty's R7. The radio was 1.14.something.something. The device was working perfectly, and I was really happy with the ROM and the way the phone was working. I had installed NO other applications with the exception of a different taskbar and obviously SDKCerts.cab
First of all, HTC Sense stopped working - it would cycle between "Loading HTC Sense" and "Tap here to launch HTC Sense"
Then, when rebooting the device, it just hung on the "Smart Mobility" screen. I left it in case it just needed a while to boot, but nothing.
I had no other option than to hard reset.
It worked OK for a few hours, but then HTC Sense started to crash again. So I flashed a new ROM - Lost in Asia or whatever it is called.
Same symptoms.
I flashed Dutty's R7 back and also the new 1.17 radio.
No joy.
The phone also hangs for ages on the Smart Mobility screen - perhaps a full minute where as before, it used to be no more than 15 seconds or so.
The following is displayed on the "Smart Mobility Screen"
1.17.25.09
52.69.25.37H
1.59.Dutty
The bootloader screen (before running USPL) shows the following:
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) V6
So the question I'm asking - is... Is my phone suffering some kind of hardware malfunction, or is this a known and fixable fault that I somehow have caused?
If the phone looks like it is malfunctioning, how would I go about returning it to stock so that the CPWH repair centre do not know it's had an unofficial ROM installed?
I'd like to add that whilst I'm very PC literate, I'm no programmer and a lot of the stuff here is alien to me hence my confusion - I just know how to flash a new ROM etc.
Thanks to anyone that takes the time to help me - I'd be really thankful to anyone that helps me sort this - be it tell me how to fix the device, or tells me to take it back!
Thanks in advance & Regards,
Chris.

Will D/L and flash Dutty's R0 Holy Grail ROM and see if that makes a difference...

If you've been using uspl than it will still be the stock spl and thus you could try to load the stock rom from htc.com specially designed for the touch hd(blackstone). I've read and heard from a lot of people that after flashing several roms and even hard resetting afterwards, some bits and pieces stay behind and flashing an original stock rom will undo this. I don't think it's a radio issue. And another big thing if you use dutty R7 that's a 1.56+ rom so you should have the right uspl olinex software to load these roms, if you used older software then problems with colouring and other things will appear.

Thanks for the quick reply.
So is it perhaps better to revert to the original ROM before flashing a cooked ROM? I always Hard Reset twice after flashing as understand this helps.
OK - so the 1.56+ situation - I was under the impression that using the latest USPL (2.5) when flashing was OK? I have never had the colour problem... but perhaps if I'm flashing wrong then these problems could be to do with this?
Thanks again...
Chris

The Sense Manila has known bug that you need to press home to load it (sometimes).
For you case, I would suggest you to clean up your SD Card.
there may be several file that cause your system to freeze.
So, format your SD, hard reset.. and cross fingers.

Yes, It is better to revert to the original rom once in a while before flashing a new rom, if u used the latest uspl and the colours are ok, then you've done that right and it will probably be bits and pieces of old flashed roms floating around on the device.
Best to revert to stock rom and hard reset twice.
Afterwards flash the rom u want. If everything works again. U could hspl instead of uspl, hspl is more stable if u ask me. And you can go back to stock spl if you have waranty issues. there's a tut on that to in the rom section.

I forgot to mention - that was one of the things I did. Previously, I had loads of email folders from all the ROM installs.
Now I have a folder containing the useful CAB files that I need, and the ROM image file. Thats it.
It's only a 1gb card as my 8gb card gave up the ghost.
Thanks for the suggestion though and my apologies for not mentioning this in the initial post.
From reading the Dummies guide, am I right in thinking that in order to use a 1.55+ ROM (such as Dutty's Holy Grail R0) I only need to run USPL and then flash (as opposed to flash a newer SPL) as my stock SPL is already 1.54?

Thanks for this - I didnt realise the device would retain bits and bobs, and you may well be right in that things are getting corrupted in there!
Which is the best stock ROM to flash - is there a link to one? I looked on the Wiki and there seem to be loads... which will work on a UK T8282?!
Thanks again!
Chris

what do you mean hang for age?
1 minute is nothing if it turns out boot up.
There are chances that the nand flash needs to refresh and wasted some times. But it won't be forever.

there's an original rom on htc.com for blackstone just use that one.
hope it will turn out right for you

I thought I'm the only one who had this problem. Last Sunday my blackstone started to freeze on the smart mobility screen too. I flash 3 different roms because I thought its an rom issue with no luck. On Monday it even managed to hardreset itself after I waited for about 15 min in the smart mobility screen.
After that I flashed a stock rom and it seem to be fine by now.
But now I will flash a custom again, the stock one is so 6.1

Help with upgrade to WM6.5

Hi all,
please if someone can help me solve problem.
I got few days ago Touch Diamond2. It has WM6.1 ROM on it. I tried to upgrade with official ROM from htc.com to wm6.5 but it hangs on 18% with error "communication error". Phone turned on in recovery mode. After that i tried flashing with custom roms but no luck again. It hangs on HTC screen when booting and nothing happens. I flashed it back with shipped 6.1 ROM from HTCpedia and it started normal.
When i start it in boot load mode it states 1.33 Olinex SPL. Do i need to put original hardSPL before upgrading to official ROM or there is something else i am missing?
Tnx in advance

updating your Hard-Spl to HSPL 1.83 first ! in order to flash WM 6.5 rom or custom rom

Hi and tnx for quick answer.
Just to confirm. I need to update even if I want to flash official WM6.5 rom from htc.com?

I think it could, try it !

Doesn't the official WM6.5 ROM update include an embedded SPL though? Although if flashing from official ROM to custom ROM or vice versa you'd definitely need to update HSPL.

Please Read Carefully the instruction for installing HSPL 1.83 or better to upgrade it to 2.51.OliNex.Make Sure U Have a internet connection on as hspl needs internet to install.
