Seems you can't read also i said without using a memory stick. . . i need a way to do this without sticking the rom file on the root of a memory stick

Download the attachment, unpack and put the ROM in the same folder.
Connect your phone to your pc with active sync
Run CustomRUU to flash your phone

Thanks very much for your help, have a gold star from me

HUmmm okay this method of running the ROM from the same directory as the .nbh file is failing i get past the 4 colour boot screen and then to the 0% bar and then i get an error [26] update error
i have tryed this with two diffrent customRRU.exe and one supplyed with the rom i am trying to install ( X2 rom with win 6.5 latest release ) and nothing just crashes and re boots in ( yes the phone has had hardSPL used on it, as it was unlocked fromvodaphone network ) any ideas ???

Try connecting your phone to your pc when in bootloader, and wait until your pc has installed the drivers for it (don't run CustomRUU).
When the drivers are installed, reset your phone, connect to your pc with ActiveSync (or Windows Mobile Device Center, if you have Vista or Win 7).
Run CustomRUU when connected...

renamed to ruu_signed.nbh? kovsimg.nbh is only for sd method, just asking

Until the new version of WMDC is released with fixes, I suggest you use XP computer to do upgrade.
New WMDC v.6.1 coming soon: http://windowsvistablog.com/blogs/w...ows-mobile-device-center-6-1-coming-soon.aspx
The XP computer needs to have Active Sync 4.5 installed. Reboot xp computer before starting, to clear any existing syncs. Delete current sync profile on Trin. Connect to pc via usb as usual, let ASync run, but cancel when it tries any profile, you are left as: Guest sync
You should be connected now. Upgrade rom file should be extracted in explorer, e.g., so you can see all files. Run RUU wrapper or ROMUpgrade exe, depending on rom you're using.
If you go through process, & get error message. Don't disconnect Trinity. Close that page & start again. It should work the 2nd time. When it's working, you will see the boot screen, color bars & at bottom usb notation. (If it says serial, you'll have to, unhook usb connection, reboot computer, re-sync to guest status, & start again.) Then the update screen on Trin will show % bar, if process is working correctly.
If you still get error message, then check Trinity Wiki info as rom upgrade problem FAQ is there. I'll assume your Trin is unlocked. Check boot screen on Trin to see boot loader info. Wiki explains how.
Also: Use SSPL software Bootloader solution from "Des" - this loader ignores the CID and the upgrade will work also with wrong CID. See also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293632
If you still have problem, come back here & give info:
1. What rom is currently on Trin? What radio?
2. Did you buy an unlocked Trin? Exactly, what device do you have?
3. What wm6 rom do you want to upgrade to?

Big Problem?

I was performing the radio update on my MDAIII and now he hangs in the bootloader with USB in the upper middle und 2.08 in the under middle. All resets won`t bring it back to life. If I try to reinstall the update all I get is a blank message screen (update from version to version) in my Vista. How can I get out of there.
I did everything what was stated here
The original BAUpgradeUT won`t find my device. The MAUpgradeUt_noID.exe gives me the blank screen with the update from to screen.

I'm using a Vista PC.
After the Radio update to 1.15 the error described above is not to go away yet.
What to do, I'm nearly in tears.
Finally I got it back but with an old Romupdate from T-Online. Is there someone who got the QTC 9090 update (latest one)
That was fast..
im glad you solved your problem.
i think someone here has it.
just post what you need and make it as a title for others to read in the digest.
Im not a expert but is vista the problem??
Most likely.
Failed MDA II flash with vista notebook
Hello everybody,
I just read this thread in hope to find a solution for my problem, which is quite similar to the one described here initially.
I got a used MDA III with T_Mobile ROM. Since I'm a customer with O2, I wanted to change the ROM to O2 as well. I followed the directions given in an other thread here (don't have the link just now) and during the flashing, the flash application suddenly had no connection to my MDA III anymore. It was securely settled in its craddle an connected to my laptop via USB. Now my MDA III is stuck in Bootloader Mode with USB v2.07 displayed on the screen.
Each retry of installing either the O2 or the T_Mobile ROM now meet with the error 101: no connection. I read here that you managed to update successfully with a vista pc. Thus I wanted to ask, how you did that since I just don't seem to find the reason for the connection failing each time.
Here is what i tried to establish connection so far:
* disabled virus scanner & firewall
* unplugged the mda III and plugged it in again. It was recognized as a new device but that didn't help the connection issue
Could you please post what you did to make the update work under vista? Help would be greatly appreciated

Try on computer with Windows XP and kill activesynk (wcecomm.exe on taskmanager/processes)
Maybe it will work. If u cant flash O2 ROM try to use "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe". On my Qtek 9090 allways flash using this APPS and allways work.
U can try too format device first, put it on candle and use "mtty1.42.exe". On XP, kill active sync, and open mtty1.42.exe and select port USB and put OK. Do "Enter" on command and should appear USB>. After this write Task 28. This will format all your PC. Try install SO after this. This command delete all files on PPC. I have attach files that you maybe need.
thankfor the tipp and sorry for my late reply. Since I have no XP PC available i tried the mtty1.42.exe on my vista notebook. When i run it however, it only lists com port 1-3, no usb port. Do i have to make a special configuration on vista for it to work?
Thanks in advance,

In vista i dont know...sorry for my late reply too.... in XP u must kill ActiveSync process called wincecom.exe. in vista, maybe u have to kill the Windows Mobile Device Center....i dont know...
Dont forget, put the Qtek 9090 in Boot Loader Mode (Pressing Power Button + Record Button + Reset), maybe will appear USB and u can format the device.
If this does not work, try on Windows XP....Find a friend with Windows XP and ask him to use his PC only to do that.
Maybe somebody in forum have the Windows Vista and can help u....
Sorry my terrible english....

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

Solution for flashing from Vista 64bit and postin only once
I do have the solution for your issues (specially looking the amount of posts you have done since your incorporation to XDA-Dev's):
1) Go to the top of the page, near to your username
2) Look the third link in the brown menu bar, from the right (LogOut, QuickLinks, ...)
3) That's right: this one which says "Search". Click on it.
4) Write "Flashing from Vista" in the combo which appeared
5) Read the issues with Vista and specially with Vista 64 bit or even XP 64 bit
6) You'll have the solution, and you'll have found it by yourself. That's to be proud !
6b) In some cases, you'll find it's too hard to flash from Vista and you need XP or the use of SD card ;-p
thanks buddy but actually i am using xp32. so now?
is your phone Hard spl?

That's not Win XP 32bit...
On the other side, if you use Win XP 32 bit, did you hard-SPL ? Can you put all the data about your device ? (SPL, Radio, etc.) so that we can know what is happening ?

I too had trouble flashing the default ROM on my Wing. The secret is actually to open up the official RUU application, then search your Temp folder for two NBH's, the RUU_signed.nbh, and the SPL.nbh. You need to then copy them into the RUU folder of Flash Center, run that as administrator, and make sure to flash without SD card. That's the way that I used to restore mine to stock from Hard-SPL.

Important! My rhodium crashed during flashing

I synchronize my phone using ActiveSync. After flashing wizzard my rhodium wanted a driver. I didnt find it and now I'm standing in the tricolor.
Somebody help me please what to do !!!!! :-(
In the tricolour screen (the bootloader), does it say "USB" at the bottom ? If so, you should still be able to flash it ok. Though if there is a missing driver on your PC, it might just come up with an error and not be able to flash it. You could still try flashing from SD card in that case.
I did a soft reset and my old ROM was boot. Driver is missing. I have to install it. Thx

if you want to obtain the missing driver, you shouldve left the phone on the tri colour screen, and now this is my question, what OS are running? Win7 or XP? if youre on Win7 its going to search for the drivers on the internet and it should take 5 mins, as stated above if the drivers are installed it should say USB on the bottom and should be ready to be flashed, this happens to me once in a while when i flash a ROM, i just leave it on that screen and let the computer do the work and sometimes the RUU which is the program u use to flash a ROM will have an error, thats fine, just re run the RUU and should be fine from there
My OS is win XP, but this computer is adjusted using XP lite. One of important component is removed (maybe drivers support... idk). I did not know that I have these problems during the flashing on this computer.

If you have the ActiveSync drivers it should be automatic. If you were able to Sync with ActiveSync, you can flash. Just let it install the drivers by itself or download ActiveSync again and install and try again.
or flash from memory card.... no need for drivers.

Copy RHODIMG.NBH (you can take from any Rom, sometimes it has another name, rename it rhodimg.nbh) to your SD card using a card reader form your computer
Put it in your phone than start. It will ask you to push start button to begin flashing.
After flash restart phone with red button under battery cover

Have you tried doing a Windows update while the phone is hooked up to your computer? Your computer probably just doesn't recognize the phone. I had that problem when I did my first flash. Windows update just found the drivers and installed them and I was good to go.

I understood that but if ActiveSync works, then flashing should work as they are the same driver. Probably needs even less components than ActiveSync.
