I've been having a lot of issues upgrading to the Energy.RHODIUM.29007.Sense.2.5.Cookie.2.0.Jan.23.7Z for my Tilt 2. I've tried everything on the "Flashing your First GSM Rhodium Rom" post, and I have been unsuccessful. Even the HardSPL download have failed. My Active Sync will not stay connected when attempting the to download the ROM, receiving a 262 Update Error. The Rhodium HardSPL Flash will not sync with my phone, first receiving error "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item" - now after deleting and redownloading the HardSPL file, there is no file found. I rufuse to give up on this upgrade, so can you please help me?
Try a different USB port bro... that solved the similar issues I was facing..
If you're having Hard SPL issues, then why not post in that thread? Read the first two posts of that thread carefully.
Thanks; I'll give it a shot.
Sorry about the double threading; there was a lot of frustration in me at the time.

I am new to completely flashing a custom ROM. I've been trying to flash a new ROM on my tilt, with the latest AT&T updates(ROM 1.62.502.0 Radio 1.27.14.09). Each time I try to flash a custom ROM I get Error 262 Update Error. The progress bar never gets past 0%. I've tried multiple PCs and tried reinstalling ActiveSync. Am I missing something, or do I have to do something first before being able to flash the new ROM?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Steve
i suggest u read all the wiki's and stickies regarding flashing a custom rom before taking any action...u obviously havent read it or havent got a good understanding of it which is why ur getting this error...and btw..i also suggest u search for solutions rather than just posting a thread like this which can be answered through a brief search of the forums.
I am about 100% sure you searched, didn't you?
Here, baby boy, let me spoon feed you and you can ask your mommy if she can whipe your drool:

I have searched the forums over the past week or so. The solutions suggested such as soft reset, hard reset, reinstall activesync, switch USB ports, etc have not done anything. I also came across this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=370205
which would suggest that I there is an incompatibility. I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of which radio version etc I would need to update to in order to update to a WM 6.1 ROM.
edit:yes I have run CID unlock.
Steve
AT&T 1.62.502.0 w/ 1.27.14.09 radio should flash fine on any Tilt even without CID unlock, since it's signed by AT&T. While I'm glad to hear your phone is CID unlocked, it's still strongly suggested that you flash HardSPL & Security Unlock your device.
Regarding your current issue, have you:
* Tried another computer to flash from?
* Entered tri-color bootloader mode on your phone prior to flashing? You can find out how to on the wiki.
Hope this helps!

Thanks Alex! Tri-Color mode worked!

My error 262 fixed
I don't know if this is the best place to put this, but I didn't want to open a new thread.
I too had been getting repeated error 262. And I spent a couple of hours searching for answers, and while there have been many questions raised on this subject, there have been few clear solutions (and certainly none that worked for me).
I have the HTC branded Kaiser installing from Vista. (By the way I am new to this, but as I had such a hard time working this out, I thought I should at least post what worked for me.) I unlocked the CID with pof's Hard-spl v1 tool. Then (as I want to stay with Mobile 6.1) I upgraded the hard spl to v3.28 by JockyW. I then downloaded a number of Roms I wanted to try. That is where the trouble started.
Each ROM I tried would get past the tri-color screen with no problem. Then it would hang at the 0% until finally showing the error 262. A soft reset would reload my previous rom unchanged. I tried many things: removing all USB's, firewall, virus protection, hard reset, reboot windows, every suggestion I could find (and understand).
While the hard spl I had should have worked, I thought I should try version 3.29. When trying to upgrade to that I had a similar problem with error 260 this time. Looking over spl update instructions I realized I had forgotten to uncheck "disable usb connections" in "Activesync" at the proper stage. Once that was unchecked, the new spl loaded. After that I was able to load the cooked roms with no problem.
It appears there was something wrong with the HardSPL v3.28 I was using or in how I installed it. The tricolor screen was showing 3.28. In any case, after I reinstalled a new hard spl (this time 3.29), I had no more error 262.
A bit long-winded, but hopefully this might help someone else.
Hi Guys,
I just had my kaiser replaced and i went to flash HardSPL on it and I keep getting an ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR. It keeps referring to communications error and then gives me the steps to recover. I have flashed my previous Kaiser plenty of times. I have tried the original HardSPL and the new updated one. My sim card is out, my microsd card is out and Activesync is connected on my winxp machine. Please help. Thanks
Please post your question in the HardSPL thread that already exists. I had this problem myself last week, so check the thread and you will see how I fixed it.
I'm guessing you have already been through this thread, if not read it first. Try the Force USB and see if it fixes the problem. I have done 10 or 11 Tilts and these directions have always worked.

Hello,
I need some help with my HTC Blackstone. After numerous attempts to upgrade my ROM to Miri_WM61_21054_Manila_2.5_V2.1.rar and EnergyROM BLACKSTONE 20090829 StandardM2.5.rar (WM6.5) I succeeded in “breaking” my phone.
My ROM version was 1.56.401 (installed the update from htc.com: RUU_BlackStone_HTC_Europe_1.56.401.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe).
First I tried the EnergyROM using the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe and SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe but I kept getting the 262 and 260 errors. After I downloaded the Miri_WM61_21054_Manila_2.5_V2.1.rar and also tried with the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe and SSPL-Manual-TouchHD.exe and I kept getting the same errors. Then I had the brilliant idea to try the BlackstoneRUUWrapper.exe that was in the Miri archive. The progress bar went from 0 to 100% in 3sec and then I realized that I did something bad.
Now everything is in green tones on my display but when I turn it off and then back on the colours come back to normal. Also the Windows is working very very hard. I managed to sync it with the PC and install the ROM from HTC website RUU_BlackStone_HTC_Europe_1.56.401.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe but I have the same problem.
Can somebody please provide a solution to fix my phone.
Thanks

connect ur phone in active sync mode with ur pc.
then run the HSPL olines wrapper.
ull enter a tricoloured screen which will say 1.56.OLINEX.
disconnect and reconnect ur USB cable.
Run the EXE in the downloaded ROM.
ull be ready with the new rom..
this is assuming u have Win XP. for other OS u need to dnload drivers from the thread mentioned in the above post.
Generally speaking if you are experiencing discolourization it is because your SPL is incorrect.
Check your SPL in bootloader. Then follow this guide. Any future queries regarding flashing should be posted in that thread and myself or others will help you. If no one responds PM me and I'll respond next time I'm online.

Hello,
After 3 posts without answer in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
I hope someone can help, see below
repost
Hello,
I read the tutorial here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540 for SD card only (I'm not a windows OS user)
and try to change my rom for the official HTC win 6.5 FRA but in bootloader mode I only get a white screen with a message in blue "Loading..." and nothing else after 40 min!!
Note: My TP2 is NOT branded
Did I miss something?
I went to the HARDSPL using a friend's laptop with activesync. The tutorial says activesync must be connected to the phone when launching HARDSPL. Once I launch HARDSPL, the connection by activesync is lost and I got ERROR 260
I have tried with activesync on XP and the new application on win &..All same error
I don't think this post is going to last long, since the thread where you originally posted was the correct place for it.
You said you had no answer, but that's not true, you had at least one answer from mskip, and I also made a suggestion to which you made no response other than asking if you should give up.
hi,
I did answer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540&page=45
Even tried: "- anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL without functional USB port ("ERROR 260 CONNECTION" RUU error), you can get SSPL-Manual-Rhodium.exe from attachment in this post, copy it to the *device* itself and run it. then once the screen is showing black, run the Hard-SPL package on the PC and select Manual"
And same error code 260
It is a GSM phone, right ? Not a Worldphone (CDMA/GSM, which has a SIM card slot but needs a CDMA HardSPL and ROM) ?
Hi,
Yes It's a GSM (with simcard)..I guess.. How to find it out?
Carrying on this discussion in the ROM-flashing sticky, no need to duplicate it here.
Hi everyone,

That was my problem...........

Several time ago i got that error too, but i never give up. Try another hardspl for xperia, when u click it, it will auto generate to extract some file, just click romupdate utility and follow the same procedure.
If still got some error, try install it from a fresh computer with usb 2.0 installe and active synch.
You just got that error becouse there is some miss connection with another usb device.
UPDATE: it worked
So I did a hard reset on the phone (settings-> clear storage) and then tried again. Worked like a charm. Installing ROM right now!
Thanks everyone!
Moved to X1 Q&A as not Rom Dev
it still not work...
i have tried all you write me...
no it says first "no file found" and trys to update over usb and than it says again connection error...
what shall i do?
