If using the Danger SPL you should flash the eng or hard SPL before flashing the nbh. As I understand th NBH may flash an older radio version, although no one has confirmed it.

Back to the stock SPL? The only thing I can think off and it MAY NOT WORK OR BRICK YOUR DEVICE because I haven't tested it is using USPL to flash the stock RUU and hopefully that will overwrite the SPL.
From my understanding, the stock Tmo Wing RUU does have SPL and will over write it back to stock.

Except that the HardSPL is coded not to let another SPL overwrite it. Using USPL should overwrite this lock.

can't you strip the rom of the spl like on the wizard roms?

Yes. That will let you use any ROM, but if he wanted to go back to the stock SPL for warranty reasons, that would be the way to go, I would hope.
any one have USPL?

I'm sorry. Please restate your post. I didn't quite understand it.
i found a eaiser way and u dont need a uspl all u need to do is get the stock ruu and run it. your phone is going to restart...simply put it back into bootloader mode without taking off the usb and your done!!!!!

This will not overwrite HardSPL.

I don't understand. You HAD the HARDSpl installed in your phone? You ran the stock RUU and it automatically wrote the HardSPL even though the HardSPL was purposely coded not to allow that?
SO you say when installing a official RUU WITH SPL.nbh - the HArd-SPL will be overwritten??
Please clarify your devicesttings.
i tried it again and i missed a step (my bad)
here are the steps that worked for me......
step 1 :run the uspl (in the botton link of these steps) but in step 3 of the uspl program the ruu isnt going to work..
step 2 : put ur phone in bootloader run the stock ruu and at 1% the phone is going to restart and get out of bootloader..
step 3:simply put it back into bootloader (without disconnecting it to your computer) and let the stock ruu run...after go thru the steps...the align the screen put a pasword ect.. let it update the windows (if u dont want it to update then just soft reset the phone before it starts) and then your done.

verified: wing can go from hard-spl to stock spl via uspl
1. download uspl aka flash center and wing factory ruu
2. copy RUU_signed.nbh and SPL.nbh from wing factory ruu to flash center
3. run it
completed successfuly with no intervention, didnt have to put in boot loader
after flashing i checked (soft reset while holding camera button)
spl was 4.10.0000
Bootloader--Stuck
Hi,
After trying the above, I now get the bootloader screen... showing IPL 4.17.0001 and SPL 4.10.0000.. Try flashing it with
Stock--RUU_Herald_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.7.707.3_02.69.90_Ship_R.exe [Error 226 Flash Write] &
HTC_P4350_WWE_4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe [Invalid Vendor ID] & RUU_Herald_HTC_WWE_5.4.405.1_4.1.13.34_02.79.90_Ship.exe [Invalid Vendor ID].
I also tried alot of the cooked rom v4.0/V4.4/OpenTouch 2.4/
HERALD.ASERG.23F.WM6.RUS.PS6.rar but also get error message as file corrupt [#270]
I had the hardSPL installed before this..Trying to got back to stock rom because I am selling the phone. Do you guys have any suggestion?
Which ROM can I use to make it work.
My phone is the Dopod C800
Thanks in advance..

[SOLVED]SPL help

Hello all,
I have a rooted G1, CM 4.0.2, PVT 32B, and Radio-2.22.19.26I
--First of all I have read this thread."http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548924".... How do I find my current SPL?
--Primarily-I would like to know why/if I should flash the Danger SPL. What benefits will it give me?
--Also, that thread I posted explains how to flash the radio, spl and CM mod.
Do I need to do all three things just to get the updated SPL?
--If I just want to flash the SPL. I think I just need to DL the "spl-signed" zip file and rename it "update" and flash it.
If I am wrong could someone please link me to a tut or explain how to flash the SPL only?
Thank you.

As long as you got the newest radio (which you do) just update.zip and update. The "danger" spl will free up more space on your phone allowing you to install the hero roms. If you decide to do the new spl then be prepared once you flash it you will be stuck on the g1 screen. All you got to do is load a new rom and you'll be back to normal.
Thanks for the reply.

Just before you flash the new spl put the rom you want to use on the sd card, then boot into recovery and flash. Remember if you use the new recovery you don't have to rename to update.zip.
Thanks for your help!

Cool no problem. If you don't mind put [SOLVED] in front of your thread.
spl info ?
Hi,
while this thread is on the go may i ask anyone if they can tell me how to display the currently installed SPL ?
is there a command that shows this info ??? is there another method ???
and am i correct to assume that as i have 90-MEG total on my G1 that i must have the latest SPL ??
i was so careless not making a note of which spl i used during the root method !
(( thanks DEVs ))

To check, boot in to the SPL by holder camera and power when the phone is off. The version should be at the top of ths screen. A rainbow coloured screen means the SPL is stock.
spl info ?
THANKS...
i see three skater androids,, ..
i remember now, lord i must have been asleep when i did my root !
thanks for the reminder, now i can move on to the issue that made me ask the question in the first place,

un root a root ?

is there anyway at all that you can unroot a rooted phone without knowing.
if you can, what would you have to do to do it ?

I heard that you shouldn't download the radio(due to brick), but is it ok to downgrade the radio using the RC29 img?

Basically, if you have the 1.33.2005 SPL and you don't have the 1.5 radio you'll brick. Be it flashing without the new radio or downgrading the radio after SPL flash. You can flash a different SPL (say, HardSPL) and it will go fine, but you must not downgrade the radio first.
The RC29 img basically wipes your entire nand and reflashes the stock SPL, installs the RC29 firmware and flashes the 1.1 radio image. What it will *not* so is reflash the splash_2 image (it might do flash_1) so if you have a custom splash image then use fastboot to fix that first.
That understanding was put together by reading pages upon pages of the brick thread before flashing 1.33.2005 (as I was scared poop-less of bricking) so hopefully it's all correct.

Is there a way to modify DREAIMG.nbh

This might sound like a dumb question but I ask it because I was previously on the .11 radio and my phone wouldnt upgrade the radio at all no matter how many times i flashed it. I unrooted and rerooted and im at the .29 radio right now thanks to DREAMIMG.nbh but now i cant even upgrade to the .11 .26i or the latest radio through Amon_RA recovery, im still stuck on Stock SPL so i cant fastboot the radio....is there a way to modify DREAIMG.nbh so that it automatically flashes the latest radio?
Nope, its signed and changin it would remove the signiture.
Is it possible to resign it?
If not then is there any other way to force a radio update on the phone while running stock spl? My radio only downgrades and it refuses to upgrade any further..the call quality is just awful now, I really need some help please!

No, you can't resign it in a way the stock spl would recognise. Why can't you use the engineering spl?

No, only the deathspl is incompatible with old radios.. engineering will work with anything.
Hmmm so you're saying I should flash hard/engineering spl, then I can fastboot a radio update from my computer?

unbriked G1 with RIFFBOX but No recov, No fastboot, just bootloader.

Dear XDA-Helpers,
First of all I want to apologize. Because likely the most of you will think the answers on my question are already posted. But I've searched and searched and I don't have found the solution. (Yes I saw this thread too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487187 It's the same question but that didn't help too.)
My phone was bricked, now is unbricked with RIFFBOX, so now is empty, it needs a ROM, i followed that treath about rc29 http://www.gphone.org.hk/cgi-bin/ch/topic_show.cgi?id=60&bpg=1&age=0 and then i stuck on error 0028002 not allowed
My problem is i cant get anywhere, just the boot loader camera+power
I really don't know what to do now.
About the error of the bootloader:
0028002

Some specs about my G1:
DREA 200 PVT 32B
HBOOT-0.95.0000

Thanks!
do you have any idea if your phone is currently on 1.0, 1.5, or 1.6? without a recovery there's not much you can do but if your on 1.5 you may be able to flash the .nbh file wich i hope would at least get your phone booted lol try to get some more info for us to help you out man sorry for your troubles...
first, thanks for your answer and i will be glad if somone helped me, ok, as i said i just unbricked my phon with RIFFBOX, so the only thing that i know is this.

was your phone rooted before this happened?
yes it was rooted before it bricked, but now after unbrick with riffbox i think no, its not rooted, because the riffbox flashed a new radio and spl, as i see its a new boot loader.

oooo yeah so you may be in 1.0.. hmmm im not sure man i wish i knew.. i dont really know about fastboot and adb.. i kno adb isnt too hard to set up.. not sure if you can flash recovery and radios and stuff through that though.. maybe try looking into adb.. not sure if you have fastboot being on 1.0... but you may possibly be on 1.5.. you said you already tried the DREAIMG.nbh file?
yes i did, i tried the DREAIMG.nbh both rc29 and rc 7

Its simple..
1) make a goldcard (this may require a friends phone)
2) Download orange-1.58.73.2.nbh
3) Rename to DREAIMG.nbh and put onto the root of the goldcard
4) flash the orange NBH file
5) Follow (if desired) the 2708+ fastboot install instructions now that you have the eng SPL in that orange rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
6) compare the IMEI/Serial with the ones on the regulatory sticker behind the battery.. if they don't match, its because the creators of the raw radio write via JTAG in their haste to market.. and overwrote your IMEI with the one form the phone they dumped the "clean" image from.. rather than avoid that sub-partiton
Doesn't matter, you already got the instructions....

You will need to look elsewhere on xda for how to find the cid of your sdcard on winmo. But as long as you can find the cid .. and properly install the goldcard image to the sdcard (either via the phone or your computers sdcard reader) you are good to go.
