I've backed up the stock rom before i flashed the phone,but now i have another SD card and when i try to put the stock rom back on sd card and try to install it it says No Image File!.
I've tried a few cooked roms from XDA and they worked great,but now i can't install a new one...it says no image file.
Is it the new SD Card?I need to put in the old one?
maybe is kingstone.
This is an old problem which has been discussed several times on the forums But we are all here to help:
1. Check if you are using a Kingston card. If yes, the card is the problem, use an old card.
2. Format your card - preferably using the phone - and try again.
3. Use Advanced RUU - task 29, and then use the standard method for flashing using the Advanced RUU.
This should solve your problem. For links to advanced RUU, please search the forum.

Hi, this is my first post on this forum and i'm hoping to get some help to solve my problem.
I have an unlocked ATT treo 750 that i'm currently using with T-Mobile. I was happily running windows 5 and decided to try this new windows mobile 6.5 so i downloaded the rom from a thread on this forum and i ran the update process while my phone was connected to windows zync porgram, so it worked fine, but as soon as i rebooted my phone to the new windows 6.5 it gave me the
"This concludes de beta test of this software release...." now i try to reconnect my phone to my pc to zync and flash another rom but i won't recognize the connection.
what can i do, i know there is a way to flash a rom using your mini sd card but i'm not sure about this process....tell me if i have it right:
1. format your mini sd card using fat32, using a computer with a card reader (i can't format it using my phone cause of ovious reasons)
2. copy the rom image to the mini sd card on the root folder. the rom image should be in .nbh format. (i have a rom called CHEEIMG.nbh by Navenedrob)
3. re-insert the mini sd cad to the phone.....I DONT KNOW WHAT DO AFTER THIS, and what do you mean by HARD SPL or SPL... is it a file i should copy along with the CHEEIMG.nbh file in the mini sd card????
PLEASE HELP ME.. what buttons do i press on my treo 750 to trigger installation...?????
thanks
Hello there if you look a couple of threads down on main form page there's a post by Navenedrob who gives step by step instructions on how to sucessful complete the whole process

Hi,
I'm sorry, I wrote that tutorial for people who couldn't use HARD SPL (A piece of software that lets you flash the phone) to get Windows Mobile 6.5.
Try formatting the memory card to FAT32 using a card reader, then from your computer, download the ROM here and paste it onto your memory card (ROM Link- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541417 ).
Load the memory card into the phone.
Where you've just loaded the memory card, there is a Reset button. It's tiny, and its located where the memory card slot is.
On the other side of the phone is the Media Button. It's the one below the volume buttons. Hold this button down and press the Reset key with your stylus.
The screen should load into the "Bootloader" mode and try to scan your memory card. If it recognises the CHEEIMG.NBH file, it will ask you to press the Call End key and then go on installing itself (I hope).
After saying all this, please note that I'm not an expert and had to experiment. I didn't however brick my phone with a Beta release so I'm giving you this in the hopes that it will work.
Just make sure you have the CHEEIMG.NBH file. It may have a different filename (anything that comes before .nbh), you just have to rename it.
Secondly make sure your card is formatted to FAT32. Google it if you don't understand or if you don't know how. I use a mac so formatting is easy.
Thirdly, familiarize yourself with starting up in Bootloader mode.
Have a play, I hope this helps.

Hey , i used to know a lot about the xperia, roms, flashing, but after flashing roms for a very long while, i forgot a lot.
So, this may be a bad question but, how would i flash my stock rom?
When i do so, and go into bootloader mode, it says "No Image File"....
what did i do wrong, and what must i do? im pretty sure i renamed the rom to "kovsimg.nbh".
are you using Kingston memory card.
if so it wont boot from card, flash using PC method.
Peoples (including me) reported to have problem with Kingston card.
Also make sure you image name is KOVSIMG.nbh on the card (re-name it if you have to)
Mod edit: not dev related, moved to general
is your problem already solved with the help you received or does it still persist?
thoughts...
take a backup of things stored in memory card, format it and then paste in it kovsimg.nbh
or maybe the downloaded file is corrupt?
btw I always use nbh with small letters and not caps and never had an issue...
History
I bought a phone which was on orange-UK, the shopkeeper when gave it to me he used some code which i wrote down on first startup which unlcoked it.
I rooted it > success (with one click root)
ryanZ one click lag fix > did not work, phone stopped booting > went into 2e recovery and factory reset resolved the problem and i didnt tried to lag fix again...
yesterday found Darky's rom and docrom mod
doc's rom mods: http://forum. xda- developers.com/showthread.php?t=807848&highlight=doc
darky : http://forum. xda - developers .com/showthread.php?t=814091
and downloaded both....
copied everything needed, installed darky, my both internal and external sd cards didnt work....
flashed with odin on original factory stock eclair rom .... did again .... nothing....
flashed again with odin (coulnt access internal card, obviously) ... stock rom worked fine, both cards mounted....
then didnt do the darky one, did the other doc's .... same problem...
thought there may be some files remaining form the un succesful lag fix of ryanz ...
flashed again with odin, formatted everyhing all memory cards.... did doc's rom, now with sd card sitting on my table rather than in the phone ... internal sd card detected...
inserted external sd , didnt mount... did a couple of times more , no success...
Now I am using doc's rom and I cant use my external SD card... its a 4gig kingston one....
BTW when sd card is not accessible in the O, if you reboot into clockworkmod, it accesses it... so its something else...
I did the following post on darky's thread on page 53 i think... and the issue i thought was this:
"
Hi its me again, i found out where the problem is.... after the rom installs (not just darky, the other doc rom on which its based too) if there is no external memory card installed internal memory card appears fine...
(BTW i used odin to flash the factory eclair, repartition and format everything) after that did that 3 times with ur rom and doc mod one released on the 14th of the month if i remember correctly....
On each boot if there is no external memory card in the slot the internal sd card is usable, if at boot it is installed both are not mounted and are un useable.
Both these roms with the vodoo creates two folder "sd" and "external_sd" on the "/mnt/sdcard" address... and normally on the stock rom this sd folder is where the SGS mounts the external sd as a folder.... so i think vodoo does its magic and so SD cards (external) are unuseable with these roms or this version...
Couldnt quite understand....
Please check this on 3.0 version that if there is an external sd card inserted on the first boot and the subsequent boot as well , is that use able or does it render both the memory cards un mounted and you cant mount them either...
IS IT JUST ME OR SHOULD I POST THIS THREAD AS A SEPERATE ISSUE WITH DARKY / DOC ROMS (i have not tried the slim kalpik+doc version yet, got exhausted after flashing to stock for three times in one day and then reverting back here only to find out that "dont bloody put ur SD in... and use the internal memory only"
plzzzzzzzz help....
"
edit: turns out there is one guy who replied that he is able to access both memory cards on darky.....
Please anybody... Mr. kalpik, Mr. Tayutama, Mr. Docrombone .... (plz dont mind the spell)
Could anybody help.... What is it I am missing.....
Bit strange, first time i see this error.
You have the standard I9000?
What was the stock rom that the phone was shipped with?
Product code on your phone now?
If you are using my files, when it opens it shows /sdcard on top. Scroll down to sd. Thats your external card. Hope this helps.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
@ DocRambone
Yes this is standard I9000
i was originally on BVGJ4 i think (something like that ) (the eclair for Orange UK)... i cant quite remember this.....sorry
but then i flashed with odin with the stock rom that i got from the forums.... here
http://forum. xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=816890&highlight=uploading+stock&page=2
then i went into 2e recovery then into clockworkmod and flashed the one i provided link above....
now the product code is I9000HKDXEE in nv_data.bin (used SGS tollbox to see that, its the same as backed up one)
other info currently is:
PDA: I9000XWJP6
PHONE: I9000XXJPM
CSC: I9000XEEJP4
But these things are i presume, due to the firmware currently installed... (i am a newbie, so... dont know abt product code stuff)
Cant we just flash some rom with odin which makes this phone a WWE >>> ?
@ragin
I used the stocck rom from the link provided above....

I used the one link i provided in the post above.... the thing is that if the sd card is in the phone and then u turn the phone on, no card is detected... neither internal nor external,
if not then, if u power it on if the external sd card is out then it shows the internal but when u insert the sd card, nothing happpens...
The rom i installed has already created a folder named "sd" and a second folder "external_sd" on the root of the external sd ..... so external sd is not mounted there...
if you go into recovery and then into clockworkmod recovery and u go into sd cards and mounts and then try to mount the sd it gives an error
/dev/block/mmcblk0 (cant remember exact file name) already exists cant mount sd....
SO thats why i was thinking that maybe voodoo has created some file or this file is causing the problem.
should i try to find where this file is and try to delete from a root file manager...????
I M BLOODY STUCK...
CANT THERE BE A WAY TO FLASH A ROM WHICH RENDERS THE PHONE INTO A FACTORY NEW PHONE STATE AND I COULD PLAY LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE IS???
what are the compatible file systems of the external sd cards for froyo roms??
fat16 / 32 / ext2 / ext 4 ????
@urhhoney
i had the same problem after apllying the darky steel rom on the tayutama rom (i disabled the lag fix first), i flashed the stock WJM9 then the CF root and recovery kernel then darky steel again but the external sd card didnot work but i noticed some errors in recovery mode about mounting the cach folder so i flashed WJM5 then WJM9 and CF kernel then applied darky steel rom and the sd card worked fine this time.
Hello,
I have an problem about installing / applying the update for the kernel.
Im trying now for almost 1 week. Maybe when u read this u think again an newbie that tries android on his kaiser.
I searched the forum an couple of times and didn't find an solution thats why i make an new thread. My problem is the following.
whatever i try to install android or the kernel update i see this message before it dissappear to the install menu.
Installing:
tar: can't open 'sdcard/andboot/androidinstall.tar' : no such file or directory exist
My setup:
Phone: HTC Kais130
Bootloader: 3.34 HardSPL
Radio: 1.71.09.01
Kernel: 2.6.32 (also tried with the 2.6.25)
Mutiple micro sd cards (from 2 - 8 gb) formatted in Fat32 or Fat
Roms: i tried: Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2 Froyo[2.2.2]: My Modified Fresh Froyo
Flashing the kernel doens't give any problems. i created the KAISIMG.NBH with atools.
Does anyone know what to do? cuz im out of options. I got 4 Kaisers here with all at the same problem.
Is the file really there?? is it a tar??

Hello Daedric thanks for responding.
Uhm these are the files i on the sd card at the moment.
/KAISIMG.nbh
/andboot/androidinstall.tar ( i tried also several times with .tgz)
/andboot/androidupdate.tar
with the option 1 install system i get that error and the same with option 4 install update.
I format my micro sd every time i try or change the files. What is following u the best way of format and which one?
edit:
I just saw the link of Kaiser android wiki and followed exactly the staps about the kernel with cache en scoot rs3. Still the same error. Sd card formatted in fat32 with 4k cluster.
Is there not an way i can flash it directly to the nand trough usb? This because i got 3 non working devices, and 1 turned back to 6.5.3
Hello again,
Solved the problem.
somehow the 3 micro sd's i used were corrupt, i bought one new one and tried the one on the kaiser wiki. And there it is it worked.
So for anyone else that have this problem and u find this with google.
Get other sd's
Hi all,
I am quiet new in try ROM's. Desperately looking for help/guidance. I am very much interested to try ICS and though of flashing DjangoManouche X 1.1 (NoOC) rebuilded on 30a. Till this morning, i was with Temasek unofficial GB rom.
I downloaded the rom - DjangoManoucheX1.1KoBNoOC.zip but did not move to external SD card. I followed the instructions the below instructions.
1. To change partition layout from old to new (if you come from GB roms) and unlock bootloader using AIO tool by Spyrosk.
2. Flahed New v30a recovery v6.0.1.5 based on v30a kernel.
3. Cleared Dalvik cache.
I could login to recovery without any problems. Now in order to flash new Django's ROM, i need to have the zip file my SD card however i dont have it. How do I install the new ROM now without having it SD card.
I tried CWM sideload to move the zip file however it threw error "adb sideload failed to write protocol fault error". Please help me to move the zip and install this new ROM. I tried using the SD card with a reader in my laptop however it didnt detect (perhaps due to new formatting?)

Hey i got a way to move the zip to SD card from CWM recovery. I mounted as USB storage from CWM and then my computer detected it without any problems
Btw, i am exploring the ROM. It is butttery smooth and looking great. Thanks Carburano. Happy new year..
you could have also put it on internal card, no need for sd card... works flawlessly...
