[Q] Can't flash rhodium. Error 246 [FIXED!] - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development

Hi folks,
i'm trying to flash my Rhodium. (i flashed it before, but than my screen was wrecked, sent it to htc, and get my phone back) so now i want to reflash my phone.
But i can't get hardSPL working.
tried several versions of hardSPL, also the newest one.
But every time i try to flash, it says:
Error 246 device not responding
or with auto-flash-mode:
---------------------------
Fatal Error
---------------------------
Hard-SPL is for non-commercial purposes only, we have detected that you appear to already have unlocked another device, if you wish to unlock commercially, please e-mail [email protected] or [email protected] to discuss solutions; However if this is your first device, then please ensure that the radio is turned ON and retry
And then he says that if RUU failed, i need to do it manualy with SSPL-manual.exe
but also then i can't get it flashed!
what to do now?

I hope this helps. The original license you got was only good for that device. HTC probabily gave you a different device and not the orignal phone you sent in.
"IMPORTANT: Each user gets 1 license, or perhaps 2-3 on request if needed (valid forever and works as transparently as possible, so it won't be a problem at all)
you can send a request for 1-2 more devices for private user (free) at http://support.htc-unlocks.com (ONLY at this link, not in PM)."

You should really post this in the HardSPL thread

Allright,
i donated 4 GPB, and that does the trick. I restarted the hardSPL app, and within a minute, my phone was unlocked successfuly!
Awesome, but it sucks that you need to donate!
Those guys gonna get rich!

Is says this for me too. Omfg, do you really have to donate?

no, if it is for personal use, then you don't have to, if you can't afford it/whatever. you can just send a message to us at http://support.htc-unlocks.com/ to get a free license

[TUT][HSPL] Hard-SPL Unlocker for Blackstone - Released for 1.56 ROMs too now

MOD EDIT HDuser 02/01/09
This page has gone wiki and can be found here.
For a better understanding it is recommended that you read all 3 parts under "Flashing - Changing your device to a new version or language" on the main wiki page found here
END MOD EDIT
so, yeah, why not do one for this device too
[size=+3]UPDATE: Hard-SPL released![/size]
[size=+2]NOTE: This is NOT a SIM unlocker - it also doesn't unlock Security for other radios. if you need that, GO HERE[/size]
[size=+2]23/04/09 -
UPDATE: New version will work on SPL 1.54 or above ROMS!!!! [/size]
so I of course changed the 1.56 rom wiki accordingly to that. (someone can review it if they want)
many thanks to testers for testing!
[size=+1]Donations are always appreciated to the big link in our signature ("elite project"). Thank you!![/size]
Preparations:
0) this package is for Blackstone devices. for any BLAC***** now (SSPL loader checks this).
1) make sure you have .NET framework installed on your PC! if not, get it from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6&DisplayLang=en
2) if you have vista, WMDC update is recommended: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center.mspx
Instructions:
read this if unsure how to install Hard-SPL...
1) download Hard-SPL package from attachment, use 1.56 HSPL (HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.zip ) if you want to use new 1.5x ROMs. then extract to an empty folder.
NOTE: 1.14 HSPL (the original Unsigned_HardSPL_for_Blackstone_OliNex.zip) is good for only older ROMs, 1.56 HSPL (HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.zip) is good for newer ROMs. 1.56 is not backwards compatible with old ROMs. the incompatible ROM will still boot but screen is going to look funny which is a temporary issue but uncomfortable.
2) you must Have Phone Synced with PC in Windows Mobile!!!
3) run HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe on PC, make sure it's launched from a local drive (not through network drive, etc.). if you are on vista, launching as Administrator is recommended,
4) follow steps in the RUU, check device for prompts after PC shows loading bar, press Yes on phone if asked. please answer with Yes as fast as you can!
5) some notes: when RUU says it will hard reset, do not worry, it is not going to do that. also when it says the flash will take 10 minutes, ignore that, it will only take a minute or so.
6) device should go to a tricolour screen now that says 1.07.OliNex, the SSPL version, which is temporary.
7) in a bit unusual way, it will take a few seconds for the RUU to detect the device, but do not worry, as soon as the "USB" text on the tricolour screen shows up, RUU will see device.
8) SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done.
9) to confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) and verify the screen shows 1.14.OliNex or for new version 1.56.OliNex, which is the Hard-SPL version.
NOTE: you will not see the SPL version during normal boot, that is the OS version, not SPL!
to enter SPL to check version, fully power the device off by long press of power key, then power on while holding the "volume down" key on the left side of the device. keep holding the volume down key until you see tricolour screen which is the bootloader mode, then release it.
NOTE 2: anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL automatically, please copy SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe from SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.zip attachment to the device and run it. then once the screen is sayingn 1.07.OliNex, run RUU manually. i.e. you launch the Hard-SPL RUU (HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe) on the PC and flash.
*important*: make sure that the USB cable is plugged in and device is synced to Windows Mobile even if doing manual SSPL method.
NOTE 3: this is unsigned Hard-SPL. no limitations on flashing ROMs or radio packages. also, this has overwrite protection against HTC RUU's overwriting HSPL with a stock one, so if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty reasons, a stock SPL downgrade package is posted in this post as well. use this relocker *only* if you need to return the phone for warranty, and only use it as last step - after reflashing stock OS and radio. see steps at the end of this post about how to reflash stock SPL.
NOTE 4: do not use this RUU for anything other than SPL flashing (i.e. hardspl or stock spl restore)!!! nothing other than SPL's made by Olinex team (using OliNex custom cert) will flash to make SSPL more secure. if you want to flash some other rom, then use shipped RUU or blackstone customRUU if you need to flash cooked ROM.
NOTE 5: for developers asking: Hard-SPL is not based on MFG SPL, as that SPL causes the screen not to turn on after a resume. (maybe solved one day ). so currently, MFG SPL can strictly be used for development and hacking.
Troubleshooting:
- read the instructions above.
- read the instructions above.
- read the instructions above.
nothing happens on the device, does not enter tricolour screen mode anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL automatically, please copy SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe from SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.zip attachment to the device and run it. then once the screen is showing 1.07.OliNex, run RUU manually. i.e. you launch the Hard-SPL RUU (HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe) on the PC and flash.
general usb connection error problems if you get connection error in RUU after the device goes to 1.07.Olinex screen, then
- try a different USB port
- try different USB cable
- do not touch USB cable during the process especially if it is already a bit dodgy
- also do not use USB hub
- you can also try rebooting your PC
- and you can try using another PC.
- also you can try unticking advanced network functionality in start menu / settings / connections / usbtopc applet.
- another reason for USB connection error: if your PC takes too long to load the drivers (if your device is in bootloader for the first time and perhaps if you are on vista), then if RUU times out, but HD still says "USB" on the tricolour screen, just leave it there and re-run the RUU when driver installation finishes.
- finally, you can try disabling antivirus or firewall programs on the PC.
HD specific USB or connection errors:
- as already said, in a bit unusual way, it will take a few seconds for the RUU to detect the device, but do not worry, as soon as the "USB" text on the tricolour screen shows up, RUU will see device. if not (happens very rarely), wait for RUU to time out (or wait 5 minutes). then remove back cover, reset, it will boot OS again, then you can retry unlocking process from step 1.
- alternatively, launch SSPL-Manual.exe from attachment, run it, wait until 1.07.OliNex tricolour screen says "USB" on it, then run the HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe on the PC.
other issues if SSPL-Manual.exe or Enterbootloader.exe fails to run (says missing component or similar), try a hard reset of the device.
How to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!
0. be sure to first restore stock OS, and stock radio. stock SPL is always to be done last!!
1. download your choice of a stock spl package from this post. (currently 1.13, 1.14, 1.15, 1.54)
2. also download the original hardspl from the attachments in this post.
3. run the hardspl exe but do not click anything in RUU yet. just let the hardspl EXE extract the files for flashing.
4. the SPL you want to revert to is a .NBH file, put the stock SPL NBH in the extracted hardspl package, overwriting the original NBH file in it!
5. continue with the RUU (or if needed, run SSPL-Manual.exe manually, then run RUU when it goes to tricolour 1.07.OliNex screen), it goes to 100%, reboots, done.
+6. to verify, enter bootloader mode, see version number on tricolour screen, should now just say 1.14.0000 or any other version ending in .0000, but not ending in OliNex!
that's it.
+7. no worries: if your device is stuck in bootloader mode with Hard-SPL and you need warranty service, you can still flash stock SPL.
[EDIT 17-12]
Congrats on releasing this HSPL.
Now the cooking and flashing can begin.

Nicely put. I see no reason to beg but then again I don't have the phone... yet. I know you must hate that begging crap more than anyone. I was right there with you when you developed the Wizard HardSPL remember?
Anyways keep up the great work OliNex! I can't wait until I have this phone!

Don't have this phone either, but like you (and most seniors) I do respect the efforts of Olipro and Cmonex (and alike).
They have contributed a lot for our community.
BTW. The honour for the Wizard HSPL goes to Olipro (as always), it was his patching that made the thing work (who's else )
Neh, i'll wait for the public release. I've seen enough horrible failures with HTC devices already when alpha testing
Good job cmonex and Olipro!
have HTC Blackstone SPA firmware to test... waiting for HSPL !
Olipro and Cmonex: the best!
Thanks to all mods
Congrats to all moderators who are doing fantastic jobs, dont have the phone yet but thanks guys, U all rocks
Yeah finally!!
Let the tests go fine and the flashes begin!
Great job man, many thanks!
Cheers.
Waiting patiently for the public release as well. Great job guys, once this gets wrapped up a world of rom cooking will open for the already great HD.
Thanks, please do let us know if we can be of any help!

I am sorry, but I still have to say I have got the so called HSPL in some forums. I downloaded it and have it tested. It worked. Someone said it is SSPL made by Cmonex not the HSPL.
I am not sure if it was the leaked test version. If you need it let me know.
Guys, Great Job. Thanks a lot.

Skywalkeret, what u have is leakage of Cmonex's testversion and so-called HSPL by someone, which makes you several steps to the success. what i know from Cmonex SSPL is not secure at this stage. And he/she does HOPE everyone can pay patience for the final HSPL release. THE PRE-LEAKAGE of SSPL WOULD MAKE HTC to improve their future "firewall" against HSPL, and I don't believe that EVERY EACH HTC OWNER or FANS would like to hear this sort of stuff?!
It is A REAL SHAME for those guys lost their promise to Cmonex and just make their own threads HOT, even DO NOT MENTION A WORD ABOUT THE GENERATOR OF THIS SSPL.

this concludes the beta test...

Hello all,
first, a big thanks to all the rom developers around. You transformed my Diamond in a usable and enjoyable tool.
What happened to me tonight is very frightening. In fact, I cannot believe what happened.
And this is the story: I was at a birthday party and later in the evening I checked my phone : it seemed to have frozen, so I rebooted it as I do sometimes when I have no other choice. But this time something strange happened : I got the following message "this concludes the beta test of this software release. thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers" - what the ... ? No way to make a call, the message is impossible to remove... completely blocked !!!
I don't remember exactly the rom I flashed last because I sometimes change. It might be a dutty's release (75%M sure) - anyway I was in a very bad situation because my wife wasn't feeling well and I couldn't call her without finally borrowing a phone from someone.
I will flash a new rom tomorrow and I hope that the message will disappear but I can tell you that it is a very strange feeling when suddenly your phone refuses to operate normally. It's a nightmare.
I hope that someone has an explanation for this because I don't want to go trough this situation ever again, it's just so annoying to have a phone which tells you "No you can't use me; your trial period has expired" when you need it he most.
Thank you for your opinions in advance
Have you tried a hard reset?
Yep same problem here.
Using duttys 1.93 - Can't get to his website either.
Hard rest does not work - had to reflash back to branded (Telstra) ROM
i'm having the exact problem right now, what can i do to fix this? someone told me to reflash it but how? i'm VERY new to the diamond
hardreset does not work
I bought the phone from a person so it's second hand. The seller did mention he updated the ROM, I'm assuming this is the cause of the problem? help please
thanks!
I am getting the exact same problem.I do not know what to do.
Sigh and since my computer will not sync, I cannot reflash it. Hard set is also a no go.
ya I cant sync it with my computer either... i'm searching other sections on this forum and I cant seem to find one that teaches you how to flash without syncing with the computer
OK i got it well kinda sorta. If you hard reset and just use the date taht dutty had then your phone will load. Do not correct the date and you should also change the date on your computer so that it wont sync. Then donwload his new rom or whatever rom you prefer and then flash it. Then change the dates back. It worked for me.
thanks.. do you have the link for the new rom?
I'm going to give it a try
The link it dutt'y new rom is here http://rapidshare.com/files/162091111/Ruu_Signed_duttys_diamond__V2.9_5_2_20275_RTM_Full_MSVC.zip
just a question how do you flash it?
can you help me? i'm very new to this phone
I had the same problem last night- expired beta software. If I do a hard reset I believe I will loose all the info on the phone, is that correct?
I was thinking that changing the date will work, is there another way to change the date without having to loose the info?
Someone has a reliable link to an instruction on how to flash the ROM?
I am also using throy 2.3, to find the latest release please go to WWW.DUTTYTHROY.NET
Any help appreciated.
!everyone! you can flash roms from bootloader. hold volume down and the little red reset button, keep holding vol down untill bootloader. at the tri color screen, run ruu from host pc. everything will be fine with this method. just like activesync.
ok i to change the time and stuff and it actually can sync using active sync.. however.. when tried to install HSPL 1.24 after the part where the phone will turn black.. i click on the DiamondCustomRUU as instructed
but it says this "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). CLick on OK to terminate the application"
Is there a way I can recover this without losing all that is on my phone?
Do anybody know the password for the latest ROM 2.9 from Dutty? His page is unavailable right now....
Duttys V2.9 RTM Finale
someone please tell me how to flash.. from scratch? i hard reset my phone.. and i cant get HSPL to work. When i install the activesync way, the black screen turns on then i cant open DiamondCustomRUU
if i do i the bootloader way, when i connect from the three colour screen it cant pick up the phone because it says i'm missing Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM
please help been stuck for hours already
i won't flash Duttys ROM again!!! Right now i need my phone and it doesn't work! And if i reflash it i lose my data....
never again!
its you have a problem with duttys rom
you need to use his thread to point out your problems....
not this one.

My Blue angle is dead HELP...!!!

I was upgrading my ROM, when it was reached 76% the upgrading process is stay stil until almost 1 hour, so i reset my device, but...... My device is blank. I've try to entering the bootloader or reset my device but it doesnt work at all.
showing nothing on screen....
Please help me what should i do......
Thanks....
when i first had that problem, i first of all tried to load the batterz for several hours, after that didn't help i took it out for several days and then i constantly tried switching it on or entering bootloader. i am sorry i cannot tell you which of those points actually made the change, but in the end it worked again, i. e. it entered bootloader and i was able to re-flash the device. try something out, i don't think you actually bricked your device, and in a state like this, the device wouldn't get broke-r maybe one of the methods described by me will help you get your device back up, be sure to tell me, what it was then
Chef_Tony,
Actually i have upgrade the ROM, but what i have install is ROM for GSM not for CDMA device....
How can i have the ROM for CDMA device...??? please help me....
or can i just release the batteray for couple days will bring my old ROM (WM2003)??
it wouldn't bring you back to wm2003se, because the flashing process overwrites exactly that part of memory in your device that contains your old wm2003se. the general problem is that the gsm version is so much more popular than the cdma version, i don't know for sure, but i think there is no wm6.x rom for the cdma version, so actually you don't have the blueangel, but the harrier. a thread handling with that, you can find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=244534
probably that would also be a good place to ask for the shipped rom, which you need to flash on your device, but remember, also for the original rom you need to put your device in bootloader mode and use the maupgrade_noid.exe, since you already manipulated your device information and therefore the upgrade tool will give out several errors like error code 101 country id error or 150 the rom is not suitable for your device, but apparently you know how to bypass these errors, as you already managed to (start) flash(ing) your device. there is also a section for shipped roms in this forum, in which you'll probably find the link to the original rom for your specific device from your carrier in your country, or you look it up yourself
good luck with that, and i will stand by for further questions
greetings, Chef_Tony
EDIT: a collection of manz shipped roms you can find here: just look for your country and carrier: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476675
Oh, God....
Its so difficult for me.... I'm a newbie in this world....
Can just you teach me step by step to get fix my device.?
Please...... I beg you.
Thanks alot for your help
ok, first of all, go by the steps, descibed in my first answer, try to get the device into bootloader mode by any means necessary. try different ways:
- charge it by cable
- charge it by cradle
- try to turn it on
- take out the battery and retry
- try hard reset
- try hard reset+record button
...
whatever comes to mind that would do the trick and get the device back on in the first place.
2. tell me your country and what network you are using, and i will try and find the latest shipped rom for you and give you the download link.
EDIT: here you can find several shipped roms and directly download them: http://harrier.atspace.com/
3. i will try and find the MAupgrade_noID.exe, in case you don't have it yet.
EDIT: here you can find it in 2nd post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=250099
4. you put that file in the folder, together with your shipped rom, where you should also find BAupgrade.exe, but you start MAupgrade_noID. your device should be in bootloader and you put it in the cradle to start downgradning process, wait until it's finished, shipped roms sometimes contain radio update files, so this might take 40minutes. and i hope you are not using vista, because this would make everything terribly complicated, which is not exactly great, since you are rather unexperienced.
so, awaiting your post with your country and carrier, while i try and find the other things necessary and re-post. don't panic, we'll get through this
harrier?
the harrier shiped Roms chef tony are in the Mr Xplode or wiki links... seems that the main batt and backup are dead... need to charge then enter to Bootloader and run his own carrier rom as you say if the Ruu cant do it.. the MA you can use the one that is on the Helmi_c WM6 Rom... it works for me instead of any other BA MA no ID...
the link i posted is taken from xplode's signature. i forgot to mention that. and while we are giving credit to people for uploading and sharing files, i want to thank ramram for posting and attaching the maupgrade_noid in the post i linked to. EDIT: the version of maupgrade is the same you offer in your downloads, so it should be the helmi version, which works for everybody.

Help! Problems flashing X1

Hey everyone. I'm tearing my hair out trying to get this sorted but I just don't know what to do!
So, when I got my X1 as everyone on here should do, was flash my X1 with the HardSPL and some custom roms, this was a few months back. Then, shock! Horror! My case went and broke, (cracked near the volume button build W44) so I sent it back to SE for repair. I sent it back reset back to defaults but left the hardspl on there.
SE sent me a brand new phone (I think... This one says under the battery build w50, but the battery says w32..) I received it today. I thought it would be my old one repaired but SE had other ideas. Booted up and have Image Version: 1.03.931.10 and HardSPL 72.000 I think I said that correctly...
Now since sending it for repair and receiving it back, their seems to be quite a few wm6.5 roms floating about, and obviously I can't use the stock software as that wouldn't be right!
Now I have tried flashing the hardspl to the phone through my Vista PC and all it keeps giving me is connection errors. I thought maybe it was already flashed so I tried flashing just a rom, and that just made the phone get stuck on loading (flash by memory card). I thought it might be Vista, so I tried doing it on my other PC (XP) and I get the same issue. This bloody thing won't flash!
I have had "Connection Problems" - "Update Errors" with different numbers. The current one being Error [260] CONNECTION.
Now I have been searching around through the hardspl thread and other places trying to find out what I need to do or how I can fix it, but everything I try doesn't make a difference. I did read some other people with recently repaired phones having the same problem and perhaps SE have put a new spl thingy-ma-jiggy on there. (Please forgive the technical jargon, I have no idea what im on about.) I have also tried the ticking/unticking advanced network functionality, but that hasn't made a difference either.
So by the end of typing this, I have little hair left. Let's hope you can all help, before I have none left!
I would appreciate ANY help! Really.
Just wanted to add, I was at first getting the phone to a loading bar when flashing, but it would stay at 0% then flag up an error on the PC. Now after the tri-colour bars, the phone just sticks on Loading...
Well just to update. I have been trying to sort this since posting. I flashed the rom to an old UK generic one, as I read in another topic people had to do that before HardSPL. Done that, and tried flashing the hardspl. Same thing, just getting connection errors.
I tried going into bootloader and running the hardspl from there. It works and the phone gets to 10% and then gives an UPDATE ERROR. The phone is now bricked, and I have to reflash the original wm rom to get it back.
Though the Tricolour screen now shows 0.52.Olinex
Any ideas?
Shameless bump for help.
very stupid situation.
i have the same situation in puncto of flashing.
i get my phone three month ago.
after hardspl i .... sorry, no hardspl ... the phone says at 0% bla bla bla
i solve the problem by consulting one night absolutly stressing again and again and again .... google ... xda ... google
than 3 thinks at one time was the solution:
0. need activesync - connect !!!!
1. SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe for desktop pc
2. enterbootloader.exe for pocketpc (please, the right version, it exist for eten too, but we need the xpediaversion ..)
3. changing registry-entries
how to:
activesync-connect, than copy "enterbootloader.exe" to pocketpc. it must be root, not sd-card. use a pocketpc-registry-program to change these values :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\00001001 = 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\00001005 = 40
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\00001017 = 144
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \Security\Policies\Policies\0000101b = 1
if not exist than add the key.
now, start desktop-program, follow instruction EXCEPT reboot.
start "enterbootloader.exe" on pocketpc. now, you can install hardspl and the device is flashable for ever.
thats works on me, hope it could help you too.
Thanks for the reply. Not had time to try it till this morning. Ok so, after spending about an hour trying to find the correct enterbootloader.exe I finally realized, that the hardspl package includes it. *Duh!* So that was time wasted.
I changes the registry values as you said with Resco registry editor, and follower the unlock then enterbootloader.exe Start HardSPL package. Starts to install. Gets to 10% then I get
ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR
The rom update utility has encountered communication errors during the update process.
So im open to suggestions if anyone has any. I just can't understand why it's not working. It's not a problem with my computer or cables. I flashed the phone before I sent it for repair and I have tried doing it on two computers one with XP 32bit and one with Vista 64bit.
hmm. would u like to install a custom rom, or a stock rom?
msg me, and i hope, i can halp u.
I want to have the hardspl on there so I can flash custom roms.
If it's a case of the software/firmware/hardspl whatever you call it, has been updated by SE. How would one go about getting it flashed? Would we have to wait for an update HardSPL to be released?
U read this thread?
My first hardspl was from this thread. New X1 will come tomorrow back from SE (vibration was defect +++ some more problems with case), and i will try it again with this thread.
hope, this will help u mate.
Yeah, I have been through that thread with a fine toothcombe trying everything suggested to see if I can make it work.
When you get yours back, if you have to do anything out of the ordinary to get it to flash or can't do it. Please come and let me know in this thread. If they have updated yours like mine, and yours won't flash, at least I won't be the only one!
k, i will msg u tomorrow around 2pm.
Cheers.
In the meantime. Does anyone have any other suggestions I could try?
Bump, for some help.
now i know, what is exatcly your problem.... <--- SAME Problem
i hope, i will find a solution and msg u then. if u´ll got a solution for this prob, msg me too plz.
Solution found in this Thread!
Download this and unzip it to your device. ++ run it. It will start your X1 in Bootloader menu and say "0.52.OliNex".
Then start hardspl while X1 is in Bootloadermenu....
FINISH =)
Thanks for the reply matey. Glad you got yours sorted. Just tried what you said and I get 0% then it switches to ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
hmmm... it works fine on my new x1. are u sure, that u start the ssplmanual on your x1 and not on your computer?
Yea, im not sure what the problem was with it. Thankfully I have it done and dusted today! Because I flashed it earlier to an older official version, and you said you got it working. I presumed you had - had yours flashed to the newest version due to it being off for repair. So I reflashed the official update and fully updated it. Then tried hardspl which didn't work. Tried with the advanced USB thing off, tried again with how you said you did it above, and Viola!
Hip hip hoorah! Thanks for the help. Can finally use me bleedin phone now!
no problem mate hf with your x1
hello,
i see smilies and yea's ...
for me to understanding (for next time or other users):
1. complete official update (if exists)
2. flashing (hardspl) without "advanced usb"
thats all?
cool.

[Q] Problem with my HTC P-4350

Hello. I'm new in here. half hour ago I got registered. so i have a problem with my HTC. For about 1-2 weeks now the device was restarting. 2 days ago the device never opened again. yesterday I tried the hard reset sequence and the device open to the message that i will lose everything and if i agree to press send but when i press it i get a green screen and nothing more. what can i do? what might be the problem? I uploaded also a video (but I can't post it cause I am a new user so ask me to send it as a pm) and a photo of the green screen.
thank you very much.
By all means, if you don't mind losing data that you had on the ROM memory, then hardreset.
Hard resetting I think is the best possible solution for you.
So press that green phone button when it tells you to ^>^
I already did a hard reset. that's why i have that green screen. I did a hard reset about 4-5 times now. thanks for your answer.
Ah, I see.
Try this:
Soft reset your phone while holding the camera button.
Does this get you to a screen where it's Red/Blue/Green/White Screen?
If it does, try plugging in a USB cord. If you get this far and see the word 'USB' in the lower left hand corner, then I think we can continue on.
I did it and it shows usb. what next?
Awesome, I'm glad.
Next, Download and run the .exe:
http://rapidshare.com/#!download|16..._4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe|56629
After this, all should be well.
Now if you want to flash custom ROMs like the ones that I make, just follow the directions on any one of my ROM threads from Top to Bottom ^>^
before i continue. after the installation i will have the OS back? I will have to install it again? i had WM6. thank you very very much for all the help.
error 300: INVALID UPDATE TOOL.
THIS UPDATE UTILLITY CANNOT BE USED FOR YOUR PDA PHONE. PLEASE GET NEWER UPDATE UTILITY.
that's the message i got.
Hmm, okay, try searching mediafire for the user aizend1985 and look for an .exe entiled Wing something or another.. I'm out right now, so cant get the link for you.
Download and run.
i can't find the user. i'll try again. when you have the time please send me. again thankl you very much. have a great time.
Here you go mate, try this:
http://download1152.mediafire.com/he785npun6pg/yj1oz2m3mzm/TMo_Wing_RUU_Update_4.26.531.4.exe
If this doesn't work I'll try to do some research for you and see what we can do.
Error 244: Invalid model id.
Okay. The last thing you can do is to try the dutch vodaphone herald version:
http://rapidshare.com/#!download|18..._4.21.172.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.rar|52629
Download and run the .exe from the Red/Blue/Green/White screen.
If this loads onto your device, then what we do is we HardSPL next.
*crosses my fingers for ya*
If this doesn't work, then have HTC try to repair it. Because I don't think there is anything else to do for it :1
:'( Error 244: Invalid model id.
thank you very much for everything. at least I know that it can be fixed.
you reflashed your phone in some custom roms?
but it didnt work still and you tried the hard spl too.... can you tell me the history of your phone before it went like that, i am a technician and might help you on your problem.... what was the last thing you did on your phone? i will wait for your reply if it's ok....
dear [email protected]
I have the HTC P-4350 for the last 5 years. the last 1-2 weeks the phone started to freeze and the screen went white slowly and then restart. after the 2 weeks the phone closed and didn't open again but the hard reset is working until the part that said format done (or something like that) and then i get a green screen (see the photo I have attached here). after that i made this post and the friend Tribulattifather (member of the site here) helped me with some info and gave me some files to try and install but the first file gave me this message
"error 300: INVALID UPDATE TOOL.
THIS UPDATE UTILLITY CANNOT BE USED FOR YOUR PDA PHONE. PLEASE GET NEWER UPDATE UTILITY."
and the other gave me
"Error 244: Invalid model id.".
there isn't something else. any idea?
thank you.
what is your spl number and ipl....
did you do the HARDSPL on your phone????
do the hardspl first and then flash your phone using a micro sd....
tell me if you already did that.... i will wait for your reply....
i also want to know if you dropped it or something before it went like that.... plz tell me the whole history of your phone....
to my perspective, the phone's problem can be resolve in flashing....
tell me if you hardspl it,,,, because you cant flash it on some ROMS if it's not HARDSPLed...
hi [email protected] i had a problem with my internet that's way I answer now after all that time. I droped it a couple of times by accident but that is a long time ago. the IPL is 4.17.0001 ans SPL 4.17.0000. i never did anything like hardspl. i changed the flex cable 5 months ago. when i first got the phone 5 years ago it had WM5 and after 5 months when i bought it I got WM6 at service. i never got the phone to service cause never anything happen. i can't remember anything else know.
I have an update for my device. now it doesn't open with anything. i mean i can open it to hard reset or to see the spl. it doesn't respont to anything.
May be time to put the phone to rest, mate u.u
I'll play the taps..
