[TOOL] Task 29 (format internal Memory) without drivers, without mtty. - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

i thought of re doing doloop's modd for TP2
and here it is fully tested to be working
now we can mtty our X1 without having the need of MTTY and its drivers
INSTRUCTIONS:
- download and unzip
- run then ROMUpdateUtility.exe and wait for it to finish.....
- device will reboot but will neva go past the bootscreen coz there is no OS to boot
- take our batti and then flash a rom using mSD card or by taking device into bootloader and using customRUU to load ur favorite ROM

WHATS TASK29\MTTY
when u flash a rom, you are copying files onto the internal memory (like duh!) but if u repeatadly flash different roms, sometimes files from older version stays behind as when u flash a rom, you just copy and sometimes overwrite files without deleting the older ones. hence at times these older files may create bugs\instability. hardrest donot always fix it.so we use MTTY
read this post to know what made me such a firm fan of mtty.http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=6085
but the thing is, mtty is and can be hard to use for new users. ... for me,, i was having the worst time installin the drivers needed to run mtty on win7 x64. so u i made this tool for me and for all
CREDIT:
all credit goes to doloop for coming up with the idea

Hi,
I hex edited RomUpdateUtility.exe so it runs task 29 right after flashing ruu_signed.nbh
As every one understand this command format the rom,
Just unzip and run task29.exe . You may replace ruu_signed.nbh with the radio of your choice.
After the phone reset itself, your old rom will be gone, so it won't boot: binfs has been formated, your phone memory is clean.
You'll need to power up in bootloader mode (press vol down right after power key), then use the leocustomruu.exe provided with your favorite rom package, or flash it from memory card using standard procedure.

hey cool.. friend of mine just told me bout it.. he did it on his HD2 ^^
I'll give it a shot a soon as u release ur new Rom ^^

Brilliant idea. Haven't tried it out yet but if it works, this is going to be revolutionary.
Thanks for even thinking of such a procedure.

this is wonderful news !!!!!!!!

thx agent, should be sticky!

This is a fantastic application, as using MTTY with 64bit windows 7 takes a bit of mucking around.
Thanks agent)_47

Good one Agent, mtty Win 7 x64 had too many loops for me to jump through.

How to Flash HardSPL
1) Find out your IPL
-- Do a Soft Reset (Push Button under volume w/Stylus)
-- While doing Reset, hold the Camera button, it should bring up the Bootloader menu and list your IPL (I think, it has been a while since I haven't been running HardSPL)
2) Verify your IPL is 4.xxx or Higher!
3) Boot your phone Again
4) BEFORE Hard-SPL--go to Settings->Connections->USB to PC and check that checkbox
5) Download HardSPL:
http://rapidshare.de/files/38148213/HardSpl_WM6.rar.html
6) Transfer these files to the phone:
--- a) install canonyang.cab
--- b) install aserpolicy.cab
--- c) install disablesecurity.cab
7) Soft Reset again
8) Run ROMUpdateUtility.exe
9) screen will become white - WAIT until it reboots itself (Should be like 10-15 min)
10) Phone will boot back to your main ROM
11) Soft Reset, Hold Camera button, check if SPL is 4.70.yang
Okay, now HardSPL is on
12) Download Your ROM
There are 2 ways of doing this now, either
1) Run ROMUpdateUtility.exe - When finished, go to Step 8.
-OR-
2) Put RUU_signed.nbh on your SD-Card and call it HERAIMG.nbh
3) Soft Reset, hold the Camera button
4) It will say: PRESS KEY TO INSTALL or something like that...
5) Press the volume button down or up
6) The ROM should begin to Extract/Install
7) When it finishes, do a Soft Reset
8) You should have your new ROM now!
Good Luck!

Thanks will try now
I followed the instructions, however when I turn on the phone holding down the camera button I get a white screen that states searching for SD Card (the white screen disappears quickly) then a new screen with RED, Green, Blue, White stripes with the IPL & SPL INFO, there is no option to press up to install the ROM. The ROM is in the Root of the Storage card named written as such in your walk through.

What size Card are you using?
I cannot get my 4GB or 8GB Card to flash... I have to use a 2GB card (I think it is SDHC Drivers not loading in BootLoader)
That is most likely your problem.
Try to get a hold of a smaller one (Maybe borrow one)

I had a 4gb in there, so that might be part of the problem, as time went on there was more going on it seemed. I finally got it to go back to that flash that came with the HardSPL software.
In order to do it, I started off by taking your advice. First I put in an older Lexar 2gb chip into the phone (Non-SDHC), then re-installed the three cabs that come with the hardSPL (installing them to the device, not the SD card). Then had to put the phone into the mode with the 4 different color bars (press and release the soft reset button while holding down the camera button till the bars showed), and finally I started the RUU from the PC since it still did not see or take the NBH file off of the root directory of the 2gb Micro SD.
I hope it does not get flippy like that again. The darn phone was deleting its own files as it was unhappy on the last build. Thanks for the tip on the SD swap. I'll be sure to keep that in my bag of tricks should it happen again.

HERAIMG.nbh go on the Root of the SD-Card.
All instructions are right in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3321535&postcount=5
these files go to the root of the sd card: Transfer these files to the phone:
--- a) install canonyang.cab

Those CABs can go anywhere. You need to put them somewhere (root of the SD works for simplicity)
So put the CABs on the root of the SD Card
Use File Explorer or Total Commander (Whichever you have on the phone) to navigate to your SD Card and run the 3 CAB files (Order does not matter) - Install them to the phone (Not the SD Card)
Then run the Installer from your PC as stated in the instructions.
*Note: Installing HardSPL will also install a New ROM (It is some old version of PDAViet I think)
As for installing your old ROM again, you would use a different method.
Similar to installing HardSPL, there is a PC-Based installer for the stock ROM, this ROM will revert you to T-Mobile default OS and back to SoftSPL.
I can upload this ROM later when I get home if you would like...
I think i got the CAB part understood.
When I do the HARDSPL I should have a ROM ready to install correct may I ask what you reccommend I have never used any of them so all new to me.
Could you please upload the stock rom to revert back to t-mobile, the installer and softSPL or what ever I need.

I would have the ROM you want ready, otherwise you would be stuck with the HardSPL ROM (Which you probably don't want to use)
I would suggest Just2Clean.
It is customizable & fast. (Can be found in the ROM Dev forum)
Stock ROM:
http://www.mediafire.com/?2nq9iu0a2nt
so with the stock rom I can go back to my t-mobile theme at any time or do I need to get rid of the HARDSLP first?
1 more question my phone is Windows Mobile 6 Pro so do I need to stick with wm6 rom or can I do like wm6.1

The Stock ROM installer puts SoftSPL back on the phone.
Windows Mobile 6.1 is just modified version of Windows Mobile 6.
It doesn't matter.
got the phone HARDSLP tried installing rom just2clean of the sd card having the same problems as in post #7 tried different size microchip 2gig with no luck so i installed touchFLO 2d and now my phone just keeps rebooting tried connect back to the pc but it sees no phone any ideas

Try using Flash Center (http://rapidshare.com/files/202330180/Flash_Center.rar.html)
1) Put the phone in BootLoader (Make sure it says SPL 4.70.yang)
-- To get in BootLoader: Do a Soft Reset while holding down the Camera Button
2) Put the ROM in the 'RUU' folder (Name it anything [No spaces/special characters]) and try flashing using ROMUpdateUtility
If SPL is not 4.70.yang:
Try Re-Flashing HardSPL
If it won't stay connected long enough to flash (Gives an error upon flashing)
- When the Phone reboots itself, try holding the Camera button again, it sometimes will keep going
If you STILL can't get it going..
- Search desperately for a different SD Card (Make sure it is formatted in FAT32/FAT16)

Help for updating ROM on HTC HD

Hi,
I have my mobile updated with Dutty's ROM version Ruu_Signed_Dutty's_HD_V2.1_XTREME_5.2.21018.1.6.0_Test4 from HTC original shipped ROM without issues. I decided to try the Miri_WM65_21198_V5.2_Premium ROM using BlackstoneRUUWrapper.exe. Every time I try it struck on 0% on mobile phone screen and on computer screen. I tried Ruu_Signed_Dutty's_HD_V2.1_XTREME_5.2.21018.1.6.0_Test4 and it also strucked at 0%. After waiting for many minutes BlackstoneRUUWrapper.exe gives Error 262 and ask to follow reccovery. Any idea guys what could be the issue. Due to this I am not able to update any ROM on my mobile now.
Is there any other software for ROM update instead of BlackstoneRUUWrapper.exe that I can try?

Have you installed HardSPL, or have you used USPL for flashing your first rom?
You can try to flash it withouth using your PC at all. Format your sd card, rename the image to "BLACIMG.nbh" drop it on the card.
Power off your device, and hold the volume down button, while powering it on again.
Maybe you used USPL to flash it the first time?
If you did you have to use USPL again to flash a new rom or install HSPL to avoid this problems again.
I used the BlackstoneRUUWrapper.exe that is I think HardSPL and flashed my first ROM using PC (Windows XP). I didnt install any thing on mobile before hand... right now I am trying to do second ROM flash and where I am failing. I suppose although my first flash ROM is running fine but I did some thing or missed some thing that is stopping me flashing second time... ? any further help if I can still flash using PC?
Guys Sorry i am ignorent about HardSPL and USPL but I used the BlackstoneRUUWrapper.exe that shows version 3.27.4.3 for first ROM (Dutty's)flashing.
Use HardSPL
I think you are not using the hardSPL. Go to Dutty's latest ROM page and install the hardSPL like is explained on his page.
After this worked, you can follow the instruction like mentioned above...
Here is link of page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=498326
Rename the rom file to BLACIMG.nbh and put it on your SD card. Make sure you have enough battery power, don't connect to pc, and push power button while holding volume down. Follow instructions...
Thanks Dutchprop , after updating to HardSPL every thing worked fine. Thanks again for your help ...

my htc hd problem ... help...help

i have htc hd new buy,,problem is i downloads rom energy rom ... and my pda to slow... i waant change back rom original... but activesynic canot link my computer,,, before problem,, i can link my computer.. so anbody out side there
helpppppppppppp meee... plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
1st you need to say witch ROM you flash Exactly because they are many NRG Rom`s
2nd You say its a brand new Phone so i guess you was with Stock WM 6.1 so the question is do you read here the info and how you flash the Phone?
3rd You didnt tell what is the ROM WM 6.1 or 6.5 and alot more things..
If you want really someone to help you with this info that you provide to us, be sure no one can tell you anything.
Please post in Blackstone Forums!
Also you should read the Blackstone Wiki. It will help you to understand what to do.
if activesync no longer works for you, connect the phone to the computer with a cable (as you would normally) then on the phone choose disk drive mode.
then download the ROM you want to flash (stock roms are in the wiki). the file should be a .nbh file. rename it to BLACIMG.nbh if it isnt already and put it on the root (not in any folder) of your sd card. reboot your device and hold the volume down button. you should now be able to flash that ROM
problem solved...
...i think.

any other way to flash the rom beside sd card

any other way to flash the rom beside used the sd card , because when i when to boot load tri color screen it say no image file , so any one please help .
Did you hard SPL it, and are you sure you renamed the file correctly?
yes i did and try find a way used pc to flash it , anyone know
hey, sorry i aint an expert but have you flashed the rom to the root of the memory card, turned the phone off, taking the battery out for 3-5 seconds, re-installing the battery then holding down the volume down button and at the same time th epower button, this should then display the bootloader mode, then everything is basically automatic, and just follow the on screen instructions, down forget to hard reset after installation!

The ROMS ive installed recently tend to come bundled with RomUpdateUtility.exe which allows you to install the rom from your desktop via usb link.

X1 hangs on tri-colour screen: tried to restore stock spl

Hi folks!
I hope that you can help me:
I have to restore the stock spl on my xperia in order to get the keyboard and a case crack repaired!
The initial situation was like this: X1 hard spled with custom fw.
I first downloaded a german vodafone rom and flashed this rom with the sd card method: Renamed the firmware to kovsimg.nbh, copied it to sd and flashed via hardspl. I rebooted the phone and the standard tom booted just fine.
Then I downloaded "ruusigned_072stockspl.zip" from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218
I extracted it, renamed it to kovsimg.nbh and flashed it... after the flashing process (the bar was full which means it flashed 100% to me) the phone showed "loading" for a while... after like 10mins I put out the battery.
The phone now starts into tricolour screen even if I dont press power+down.
its on stock SPL (shows SPL-0.72.0000) and it says "Continue to Upgreade ROM... please wait" but nothing happens..
what steps should I take from there on? I ve attached a screen which shows the tri colour screen.
Did I brick my X1?
Don't think you got much more options then try to reflash the spl. Maybe that will fix this. Do you still got usb access in this tri color mode?
nope, I dont get a usb connection
With spl you mean I should try to reflash hardspl?
If I have no hard spl, is it possible to flash a original rom with a sd card only?

thx for your advice I am sure that this will be the solution - stupid thing is: like the guy in the post you linked I have lost my micro sd to SD Adapter and therefore I cant write the stock firmware to my card -.- stupid thing...
In a hour I ll rush away, buy a adapter and then try to flash the stock rom but as it sounds from the thread the scenario is the same so I think it will work.
EDIT: This was the solution I downloaded the stock rom from the sticky thread in the Rom Section from XDA, extracted it to the sd root and renamed it kovsimg.nbh. Put sd card into X1, started X1 which automatically booted into tri colour screen - I only had to press power to porcede and everything is finde now after the flashing process! Stock rom and stock spl on my X1 thanx
simple!
i had the same problem...just rename the original rom.image to RUU_Signed.nbh then open hardspl (dnt push next)and replace the file push next ,update and it;s done!don't worry if u see the error at 0 % try to open the x1 after that and it would be fine
