Sd card flashing method don't work

hi all , i've tried to flash my trinity (s300) by wmdc under vista 64 but don't work ,also with trinity guides instructions ,( error 260)
So i have tried with Active sync under XP proS2 but don't work too ,same error
And then i have tried Sd card method described on wiki ,but when i put the phone into bootloader it doesn't read TRINIMG.nbh
So i need your help , why i can't upgrade ?
is SDHC card causing this problem ?
Before i was enable to upgrade my phone ,my actual rom is Shap's
Help me please

please close this thread ,
Solution found ,thanks

1. Extract the .NBH file from your prefered ROM upgrade: In windows use winrar (right click) to extract the contents of the exe file. In Linux / MacOS use cabextract.
2. Rename the .NBH file to TRINIMG.nbh and copy it to the root folder of your miniSD card.
3. With miniSD card inserted on the phone, start the bootloader (hold Power button on right side and Camera button at same time and stick with stylus in RESET on bottom).
4. You should see the screen pictured on the left, confirm flashing on screen by pressing the power button.
5. Flashing might hang after some time but this is normal. Just wait. Complete flash takes about 30 minutes, so check your battery or connect to charger before the flashing process starts.
6. When flashing completes soft-reset your device.
If not work
copy all file too SD
Run enterbootload
work 100%
First Unlock your CID

doesn't work

Non SDHC. Formatted to FAT32 as a post in the forums said. I've tried Sandisk and transcend since someone mentioned transcend has issues.
It can read the card from the OS, but it doesn't leave the bootloader.

Really need help !!

Sorry for posting this new thread but it was really important for me to do so.
I have a problem regarding flashing a rom.
I have flashed a lot of roms recently through sd card method but never had a problem.
I flashed ' smabergs ' ' Touch X ' Rom 2day but during the update . it stops at around 80% update.
so i have not been able to move to any rom. or more precisely... My phone hasnt been of any use since then i dont have a spare one.
Please help guys. any help is much appreciated !

hi
take your card out and formated with your computer as fat32 it might be correpted
try gain with SD card method if not
use hard SPL method
Use the computer in tow steps and keep your mobile linked while you do the hard SPL flash and uploading the ROM with RUUtility_Kovsky
1 - Downloads the hard rest program X1_HardSPL_v1from xda and unzip
2 - Download the flash utility RUUtility_Kovsky from xda and unzip
Installation, remove the SD card from your mobile it might be corrupted
To lode the ROM to your mobile in tow steps
1- Flash your mobile with X1_HardSPL_v1click the EXE file this will take less than 5 minutes watch your mobile screen and press yes to add a small ROM
2- Don’t remove your mobile USB
3- IMPORTANT you have to copy the new ROM .nbh inside the ROM utility folder called RUU_Kovsky, select ROMUpdateUtility.exe its located inside the folder RUU_Kovsky and pres the ROMUpdateUtility.exe , and start upload your ROM ,this will take less 10 minutes
Put back your formatted SD card

Thanx
thanx for your help bro. but i still am not able to properly understand your methods.
Please explain them in a little brief and please provide the links for ruu_kovsky
It's a request.

Thanx dude. M through now

hi , are you don , if so install this rom, the best
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509891

most probably:
1- you don't have HARD-SPL correctly flashed
OR
2- the ROM you are flashing is corrupted (bad download or bad decompression or bad copy to the microSD)
PS: with the stock SPL you can still flash STOCK ROMS
WHAT TO DO ??
1- remove the microSD card and insert it into a PC (with an adapter or reader)
2- delete the current kovsimg.nbh file
3- CHECK the microSD for errors (right click -> tools -> scan disk or check disk)
4- COPY A STOCK ROM to the microSD and rename to kovsimg.nbh
5- Insert the microSD back into the phone, go to bootloader and flash
6- ENJOY YOUR PHONE AGAIN

Can't install roms !

I normally can install roms but for some reason i can't anymore, when i copy the file to my memory card the ".nbh" part dissapears from the name, and when i try to install it, my phone says there are no images. Any ideas?

maybe you are hiding the extension for known formats on your pc.
it is an windows explorer setting.
fast solution : simply rename the file directyl on your phone via totalcommander or file explorer and you are good to go.
regards

Thank You so much , thankfully it worked.
One problem though, SEUS can't regonise my phone, i flashed a generic UK rom and thats it, any ideas ?

it because of the hard-spl
if you already have r3 then theres no point using SEUS
the only reason you would use it is if you want to return it to warranty, but even so flashing back soft-spl and generic rom would be fine!
SEUS is really jus useless

I cannot flash my Xperia X1 with Custom ROM

I cannot flash my phone with custom rom. I was taking all the steps from BioVolt tutorial but all i get when loaded in bootloader is tricolor bootloader that tells me KOVS110 SPL-0.72.OliNex MicroP1-787 MicroP2-707 and Serial. I have changed the name of custom_RUU and it did not help me. What shoul I do to flash it?

Where have you stored the rom image you want to flash? Don't place it in a subfolder of your storage card. And what is the name of your image file after you renamed it?

Your new ROM must be in root of card and it must have name Kovsimg.nbh

i'm also a novice; have done all as per tutorial by "Milancex" but same way after showing three color screen and info about my SPL and Radio...a white screen comes and says "Loading" and after that nothing.
this file "kovsimg.nbh" is on root of my memory card; but it does have other files and folders of my data

Well somehow, using Task29 and as per BioVolt's video tutorial, i'm able to format internal memory; copied the "kovsimg.nbh" to my memory root; my SPL has changed as per video tutorial; but when mobile restarts in 3colored screen its says no image file found. While i know i've formated my card and it has only one file wid above name...

I never needed to do the Task29 stuff BTW....
Have you read the thread about the "Micro SD method"?
Once you have your X1 hardSPL'd it is sufficient to
power off (remove battery for 2 seconds, reinsert)
insert µSD with KOVSIMG.nbh in root (regardless of other stuff on card, doublecheck in cardreader on PC that the file is there and has correct name)
press and hold "volume down" button, press and hold power button until tri-color screen appears
If this doesn't work you might have copied/renamed the wrong file....

thanx louis; just reformatted my SD card and copied the file again and here i go; i'm happy wid the new rom ; thanx to all...

same as above, plus: You need Windows and ActiveSync (for XP) - I just don't recall the exact name of the Device Management in Windows > XP.
Once you got your PC connected to the phone start thinking about the rest.....

[Q] Need help for instal custom rom

Hi, im a new user, and i tried to instal custom rom by watching video guide of installing a custom rom, and i followed it very carfully. However, once i got to the part where i pasted the nbh file from my pc to my storage card. removed the usb cable. turned off my phone and then got to the tri color bootloader screen it says " no image file found" can someone help me please?

Which ROM you tried to flash??

for sd-method to work, the img-file needs to be named "kovsimg.nbh" (without the ""), otherwise bootloader won't recognize it. make sure it's named that way and check if you're able to see file-extensions (if not it could be "kovsimg.nbh.nbh").

I try to flash Dynamics_GTX_2.2.0_WWE rom when I failed I tried to flash 6.5_V4.0F because I thought maybe something is wrong with Dynamics rom or maybe I do something wrong. I instaled 0.78.OliNex Hard-SPL. I change rom name to kovsimg.nbh but it still write that "No image gile"
P.S. Sorry for my bad english

Maybe you need to reformat your SD card to FAT32 again, after that put the kovsimg.nbh to the SD card and try again, I face this problem before but after I reformat the SD card, it works..
