Followed instruction with using Y cable to downgrade SPL. Tried numerous SD cards with no luck. I only get to the Enter USB Host Mode..and that's it. Stock Image on SD, tried a few formats, a few cards, a few USB ports. Anyone have any ideas on what to try next. *As I read it, no goldcard needed with SD going from 5.X down.
Thanks.
TMOUS HD7, (Startech Y cable, Generic USB card reader, Sandisk Card)
Followed this:
download NoDo or Pre-NoDo Shipped ROM from here.
extract RUU_Signed.nbh
rename RUU_Signed.nbh to SCHUIMG.NBH
copy SCHUIMG.NBH to SD card
insert SD card into Card Reader
plug USB Y Cable's power connector to PC
plug Card Reader into one end of the USB Y Cable
plug HTC Schubert into remaining end of the USB Y Cable
boot Schubert into USB Loader Mode, not Bootloader
how-to: hold Power, Volume Down, & Camera button(s)
a. device should now detect SCHUIMG.NBH
b. device may reboot several times (about 6x)
return to XSPL Tutorial's Step #5, here.
Had same problem, After step 9, press camera button again and and watch screen. You mite have to do camera button couple of times till it starts.

cool, will give it a try. doesn't seem like it's sticking but who knows. thanks for the heads up.
Also i used 4gb micro card with adapter and card reader. Rom file that bought phone
back to bootloader was RUU_Schubert_TMous_1.20.531.01Radio_5.51.09.11a_22.31.50.09u_by_Ansur Changed name and it loaded perfect,only rom i found that worked. Then you can change bootloader and install any rom. You have to try several times like me and do not worry you will not destroy phone.I have tried about 6 roms after changing bootloader and have no problem with phone. Just remeber very time comsuming and you have to have a lot of relaxed moments OK Forgot camera button is not sticking that is what starts the file downloading in you phone press and watch screen and you will see it change

After all of my other problems... HardSPL is finally on correctly and I checked.
I have Kovsimg.nbh on my FAT 32 microSDHC card. I got to bootloader, saw OliNex whatever. It goes to loading. Then "Image not found!"
Had this problem before with official ROMs as well... Had to use SEUS.
What the hell is the problem with this?
My USB port has been unreliable so far, so I dont want to chance using CustomRUU (I dont know how to use it anyway).

Custom RUU is easy. Just leave your phone on and plugged into the USB. Make sure you have the image file renamed to RUU_signed.nbh. Start Custom RUU. Follow the steps in Custom RUU. And Voila! It turns the phone into the Boot Loader automatically and you can watch the progress on your monitor. I use it all the time. I don't like to copy everything off my SD card onto the HDD and I don't have a spare SD card to leave the SD card blank with only the image file.
You don't have to copy everything off your sd card, just put Kovsimg.nbh in the root of your card and everything is good to go.
Copy your .nbh file to the root of your sd card and rename it to Kovsimg.nbh.
Boot phone with holding : vol down + power keys until the color screen appears.
it should find the image now, else use ruu on a friends pc.
remember to active sync first...
regards
I dont have a Kingston card, but maybe I'll try using my Corsair 512mb microSD later today.
My main problem with CustomRUU is that the USB connection to my phone isnt stable. What would happen if it suddenly DC'd?
EDIT: Ahah, so using my Corsair card instead of my A-Data card works.

You have had problems with the USB Connection to your X1 before? Then dont flash via USB / Custom RUU. Thats really too risky then.
It first flashes the Bootsector and a few other things, then begins with the OS parts. If the connection is cancelled while flashing the Bootsector etc. you may get some serious problems as your device wont boot anymore (search for putty btw. if this happens to you).
When there is an Error while the OS is updating you can flash again. I had this once with a non-clear sdcard that the installation did not go over 99%. A reflash with a clear card worked without problems.
Hi, my Touch HD is still under warranty but I'm running Hard SPL 1.56.Olinex.
My USB is not working, it just charges my phone. My SD Card reader is also not working... So I can only connect via BT and I can't find any way of restoring SPL without USB/SD... Is it impossible?

Do u try a HARD RESET? If you try a Hard Reset and still have the same Problem you can do some of the things.. tell me witch ROM u use.. maybe the USB problem that don`t wana sync is from the ROM.. also sometimes when you flash a 6.5 ROM the CARD is not visable one FOrmat normaly will clear the things but its bad when you cannot conetc to format via PC
The Best you can do is to flash Another ROM via SD Card but 1st you need to make your SD card working so if you have some SD adapter or some other device that you can take out your SD card from the Phone and conect it directly to the PC will be perfect to FORMAT it.. Once the problem with your CArd is fixed you can just put there some new ROM and Flash the Device...
Its very Bad when on the same time the USB and Card not working but don`t worry you can fix the things but its not so easy.
I'm running official HTC Touch HD_MR_2009_RUU_BlackStone_HTC_PTG_1.56.410.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe... I can connect to PC via BT and copy files...

Yes but the NEW Cooocked ROm is around 170MB so you will need few days to copy this via BT also when your SD card not working this is not posible because the ROM file must to be located in the root of the SD card
Now i understand that you use STOCK ROM so the best you can do is to go in HTC service for Warranty i was thinking you have a problem with Coocked ROM but when is with STOCK ROM its not your fault.
The problem is that I've installed Hard Spl... If I take it to HTC they probably are gonna say it's not covered by warranty...
If you use usb to charge your phone than datacommunication with your pc has to work.
Which OS are you running, because when you entering the bootloader your pc doesn't see your phone as a mobile device anymore.
If you're running WMDC and entering the bootloader than Vista or W7 is searching for new drivers..... If not found read this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524619
For XP you have to install the drivers yourself.
They can also be found in the link.
When the drivers are installed en your phone is synced than it will show USB in bootloader.
After that flash back to stock SPL
Hopefully this is will help you, your problem is very strange
Because of a not workin SD card and a not working USB
I wish you luck!
Thx! I'll give it a try tonight... but I don't think that will help because I've hard-reset the device and tried with Windows 7 and Windows XP and nor the phone nor the pc show any message.
I remember that the SD card did show up, but after a few seconds it would disappear... But now it never shows up... Already changed usb options on control panel...
The last thing I did when the SD was ok was trying Android with no luck.
I believe it's really an hardware problem and maybe I could replace the board that has SD/USB/SIM but would like to use my warranty....
If you update usb drivers there's a good chance that your device will show up on pc. Don't forget to 'enable usb connections' in activesync connections settings
Also if this doesn't work try flashing orginal stock rom which came with your device. This rom, and only this rom, will still flash as long as you are connected to pc (doesn't need to say 'usb' at bottom of bootloader). Alternatively try MTTY

I had a very similar problem when I last tried andriod. first of all my sd card dropped off, It would go in, be seen and then drop again as soon as I tried to access it. Android had corrupted it. Try reformatting your SD card fat32, copy the rom on and try updating the ROM again using your SD card.
It also busted my pc drivers on my pc, I had to uninstall them completely and then load the latest drivers. If you have another pc try it on this first before faffing with your USB drivers.
Once my sd card was back I couldnt flash any roms, no usb connection. I did a hard reset and then went into spl manually and set it running that didnt seem to work but when my phone rebooted usb was backup.
It seems andriod manager to corrupt my ROM, SD card and uSB drivers on my PC, I havent bothered with Android since and wont until there is a bootable ROM available (never)?
Your USB cable may be bad. Sometimes they stop working and pc communications stops. I've had to replace my usb cables from time to time.

Last time I had something like this, I had to remove the HD from windows mediaplayer. For some reason it was there as plain "storage card" if I remember correctly. After that I could connect normally with the HD again.
*Have you verified that your SD Card is actually working at all?
*-I've had a problem in the past with an "old" SD Card that wouldn't recognise properly in either my PC or my phone. Turns out all i had to do was clean the contacts on it lightly. My original 8Gb SD Card that came with my Blackstone has also completely died. It will not format, will recognise then drop-off and attempting to use it in ANY manner resulted in it becoming excessively hot - Dead card, not replaceable under warranty
*If the SD Card works in your PC, have you tried formatting it to "Device Defaults" via the PC?
*-This problem has in the past also prohibited me from using my SD Card in my Blackstone. For some devices, without certain registry tweaks enabled, only particular formats of SD Cards are recognised. I have also noticed that the card must be formatted in a particular way to be useable as a ROM Flashing card. The Blackstone simply won't read any images from the card in bootloader mode if the card is formatted improperly.
* Try another USB Cable, being able to charge via USB does NOT mean it WILL sync, for example, if your USB cable has bent/damaged contacts, or if the cable itself has a broken lead, the VCC (voltage core) and GND (ground) leads can still create a circuit to send power to the device which will enable it to charge.
*-Also try other USB ports... you never know when one maybe too dusty / dirty / faulty
* Windows 7 / Vista? Uninstall Window Mobile Device Centre (WMDC) re-download and reinstall, or allow Windows Update to do this for you after you've uninstalled. A simple registry error can fark this right up. I should know, as I recently accidentally imported my Blackstone's registry backup to my laptop... ugh that was a nightmare. Windows 7 recovered, but I spent a few days browsing with the wrong user-agent, meaning a lot of websites were redirecting to their "mobile" or "wap" counterparts...ewwww
* Windows XP? Well I can't say too much there, as I haven't used it pretty much since Vista was released years ago. Just do your best to make sure all drivers are updated appropriately.
other sd card
have you tired a different sd card there are known issues with some types of cards sd vs' sdhc and class 2 vs' class 6 cards. Also you may have a bad usb cable? Do you have .net framework installed. are you trying all this on the same computer you used to flash your phone with hspl. You can try putting your phone into bootloader mode wait for usb to appear on the bottom of the tri-color screen and then reflash stock spl from there by opening the BlackstoneRUUWrapper and going through the steps it should see your phone. See the wiki!
And why did you hspl if you have a stock rom?
I did a sim-unlock and didn't restore the spl after the process... I was waiting for the perfect 6.5 ROM...
I didn't have time to test it yesterday but I brought it with me and will try again later...
I already tested the SD in other Windows Mobile phones and was ok... The SD is not the original (Transcend) but a SanDisk 8GB but already tried it with a 2GB SD and nothing. Also tried with different cables. And in different PCs (windows xp and Windows 7). Also did a hard-reset.
Nothing worked! When I enter bootloader with usb cable connected there is no SERIAL and no USB message, but if I remove the cable it changes to SERIAL and doesn't change anymore. On the PC, with XP, W7 and Ubuntu, nothing happens... lsusb gives nothing... on device manager it doesn't show up.
Regarding the SD card, when I insert it the screen turns on, but still no storage card detected... I really think it's an hardware problem.... I ordered this, just in case, http://cnn.cn/shop/touch-simmicrousb-card-module-p-7149.html, but will still try to take it to warranty before because there is a seal over one of the screws...
Thank you all!
I looked and can not find things mentioning via sd card only via PC. If I am wrong, I am sorry but I didn't find it. Could you attach a link to where it mentions it? What do I name the .nbh?
Yes you can, the image needs to be called BLACIMG.NBH
and you need hspl on youre phone and the mem formatted to fat 32:-o

I just received it today from ebay, does this seem to be already for me to flash it?
It has 6.1 installed
Bootloader screen says
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.56.OliNex
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
Bootloader says "No Image File"
I have the BLACIMG.nbh file on my 1GB card and it's not loading it. I have done it the same way on my HTC Jade multiple times with the same sd card.
I TRIED WITH ANOTHER ROM AND IT WORKED JUST FINE. I don't know what was wrong with the other one but Thanks for everyone's help.
I'm afraid you're not following the right procedure. This should do the job.
1. Copy BLACIMG.NBH into the root dir of your Storage Card.
2. Be sure to have at least 30% of charge.
3. Turn off your device . Fully power the device off by long press of power key.
4. Go to bootloader mode. Push and hold Vol Down + press Power button.
5. As soon as presented the message, push Power button to start flashing or Volume Down button to cancel.
6. The whole procedure will take about 3 minutes. After you finish and see the relative message, soft reset your device, you are ready.
Make sure you formatted your sd-card.
To enter Bootloader, starting from powered off phone, hold down volumebutton and briefly press powerbutton.
You can also always use the "search" funtion on the forum startpage. Topbar (brown) on the right side.
It's recommendable to hardreset your device after flashing.
Good luck.

I got it to work just fine I used another ROM and it worked just fine. I have also had success with my JADE with no problem. I edited the post before stating what I did to get it to load successfully. Thank You for the assistance though, that is a easy step by step tutorial of how to perform the flash from sd.
I got a kingston card (8gb) it works perfect but for some reason I cant flash from there... I use my backup 2gb scandisk

I have a 16 gb MicroSd-HC (Sandisk) and regularly flash blacimg.nbh files from this card. Never had any problems. My phone has hardspl and is secuurity unlocked courtesy Olipro
This has been covered many times before in wiki and stickies. Thread closed
Hi, PLZ HELP ME! i just have run the Hard-SPL v1 on my xperia x1, and it was all fine, but then, i Used the KovskyAdvancedRUU (Task29 mode) in order to fix broken sectors of internal memory, and the process ended OK... but my X1 have restarted, and now,i dont go further than de "Sony Ericcson" screen when i shut it on.... If i go to the BOOT screen, It just stay in the "colours" screen.. (I have the Micro SD whit the ROM named kovsimg in my device.... so, PLEASE HELP! im kind of newie....
ALso, i just have formated the Micro SD card into FAT32, and have the room in the root...
You have done all things correctly until now.
1. Can you check your ROM name at your PC whether is 'kovsimg.nbh' or 'kovsimg.nbh.nbh'? (Correct name should be only one .nbh) I guess you renamed it to double .nbh already.
2. After confirm the ROM name is correct, remove the battery and insert memory card.
3. Put back the battery then press the volume button down, and power button together and HOLD BOTH BUTTONS UNTIL TRI COLOUR SCREEN APPEAR
4. If your ROM name is correct then it should start installation.
Hope this works for you..
HAve done it like 4 times... i checked and everything was allright... i tried with 3 different micro sd and nothing happened.... At the end, i just bored of triyng with the micro sd, and installed the rom with the cellphone connected to the pc (using the RUU kovsky)... but still dont know what goes wrong with the SD....
have you pull out the usb cable from pc when in the boot screen (after you finished perform task29)?
My HTC HD7 (T-mobile) was initially bricked during an update.
Took it to a questionable phone repairer ..
Now you can start the phone, it goes to a red, blue and green screen with the following information:
PD29110 88-BC (4K)
SPL-1.16.2250.0(110866)
MicroP(LED) 0x07
TOUCH 81(v1.8,#1624)
Then it goes to a white screen with "Enter USB Host Mode.."
You connect it to the computer and it is not recognized via USB. Cannot turn the phone off using the on/off button.
Anyone know how can this be fixed?
NOTE: I am totally illiterate to phone tech talk so keep any answers to "very simple instructions". Thanks in advance :good:
Try flashing the device with a Tmobile Pre-NoDo/NoDo stock rom via the goldcard method and that should fix it.
Goldcard method - requires a Y cable, (either home made or purchased online) SD card reader and a 1gb to 2gb SD card (larger SD card can work but needs to be partitioned to 1gb) download the goldcard tool, goldcard image and the stock rom
Use this Tmobile rom -
https://rapidshare.com/#!download|4...02_Radio_5.65.09.25a_22.45.50.21U.7z|9315|0|0
Follow the goldcard tutorial and download the goldcard tool and image here -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837
This process seems alot more complicated than what it really is...actually it's easy.
Download the goldcard tool and goldcard image and put them in a new folder on the desktop
Download the Tmobile rom and extract (use a program like 7Zip) it to a new folder on the desktop. Connect the SD card with the SDcard reader to the PC. Remove the Ruu_signed.nbh file from the rom and rename it to SCHUIMG.nbh (has to be capitalized) and put it on the 1gb - 2gb SD card (clean/wiped and formatted to FAT32)
Run the goldcard tool and press the Load goldcard image button and choose the goldcard image, the select patch MMC button.
Connect the SD card reader to the Y cable and connect it to the power source, put the device into "Enter USB Host Mode" and connect to the Y cable and the flash process should begin.
That's pretty much it. After the flash process the the device should be fixed and from there you can either connect it to your PC and update the device through Zune or you can install XSPL (RSPL/HSPL) and then flash a custom rom like one of the OS 7.8
If you need any help just let me know!
Loading ...
Thanks xdrc45, I really appreciate your assistance.
I managed to do everything you mentioned ... connected all up and the phone went from "Enter USB Host Mode.." to "Loading..." and then it just stays on that screen.
I left it on for over an hour and still no change. Any ideas?
Your welcome!
I had this same problem when I flashed mine with the goldcard method and I ended up using a different card reader and the flash process started immediately. Good thing is, it's recognizing the connection since it changed to "Loading" which means the Y cable is working.
Try some of these and see if they work -
1. Use a different card reader. If the card reader uses a USB cable (like a printer style USB cable) try a different cable.
2. Try switching around the connections to the Y cable.
3. Sometimes the camera button will get stuck in and prevent the device from flashing.
4. Make sure there are no other files on the SD card other than the SCHUIMG.nbh.
When the flash process doesn't start and it hangs on "Enter USB host mode or Loading" make sure to disconnect the device and pull the battery and re-enter USB host mode to start the process again.
Try these and let me know how it goes!
i have he same problem
hi
