Error 262 Updating any Custom ROM

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!

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.

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!

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 , friends i been trying to sim unlock my new tytn2 which is in uk orange network now.

What should i do to get my phone unlocked, plz help i assure 5 pounds to the one who has time to help me in this. cheers friends.

WM6 and WM6.1 are Versions of Windows Mobile, see Settings, About on your phone.
Looking at the Radio version, you are a WM6.0 user still.
To install Hard SPL read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
If you get a white screen, read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354061
Once you have Hard SPL complete, you can SIM Unlock, read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/newreply.php?do=newreply&noquote=1&p=2572785
I suggest you read here Getting Started and on the XDA Wiki, there is lots of information on the HTC Kaiser page that covers the basics.
It is appreciated to search and read before posting new threads when the information is already available. If you get stuck with one part, re-read the thread, search for your problem, and then (and only then) post in the thread you are trying to follow.
Thanks
Dave

Try SSPL First, then JumpSPL 1.56, then JumpSPL 1.93. one should work.

Need help flashing Bootloader/Radio/ROM

I've recently gotten a Touch Diamond from Verizon and I'm looking to flash it. I have experience from flashing and cooking for my original Touch, but I've found this Diamond to be much more stubborn/fickle.
I'm interested in flashing a new Bootloader, Radio, and ROM on to the phone because the default install is disappointing (resource usage). I've all over this site, google, and modmydiamond.info and haven't been able to resolve my issue, so I'm looking for additional help by posting.
When trying to load a bootloader (Hard-SPL 1.40 Olinex SIGNED, and the Jockyw2001 Hard-SPLs), my phone will prompt me, saying something is trying to run on my phone, I tell it to allow it, and the spinning color wheel comes up then freezes after a short amount of time. The installer on my computer will eventually time out. I restart the phone and it's good to go. I guess I'd like to start there, I think if I can get a Hard-SPL loaded I should be able to do the rest without much issue. Current bootloader information reads:
Security Unlocked
DIAM400
SPL-0.58.0000
MicroP-Diam (LED) v81
PSOC-Diam STAGE_EVT_v20
Serial
Any help is appreciated, thank you.

I've done some more digging and trying and, I've obviously come across this thread in this forum, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544872. When trying to lock or unlock my phone using the links provided in that thread I get "Invalid Model ID".
Edit: Just realize it's not intended to work on Verizon phones... Any help is appreciated.

God I cant find a solution for this either

Did you try the HARD RESET and after the HARD RESET not letting phone load, instead pressing POWER/DOWN to go into bootloader?
Uhm... Is it Sprint? or Verizon?
If it's Sprint, let it reboot and install .NET CF 3.5 before launching Diamond Unlocker.exe
If it's Verizon, try using the SSPL-manual.exe <-- it's posted everywhere.
Good luck!

That doesn't work
sspl manual just gets you to the point where you realize that the hardspl doesn't work on verizon diamonds... wrong model #. us VZ users could really use a new cellphone company that doesn't cut the specs of a great phone down to that of a Motorola VU204... stupid big red...

Non-official rom Touch HD - guarantee

Hello everybody,
I'm new here, so I don't know if my topic is in the right forum or something. My English isn't also really perfect. Nevertheless I hope you can help me.
Two questions;
1.
I have a HTC HD here which is of a friend of mine. He bought it from someone else (not in a shop).
His HD was acting weird last days. So he went to the shop where the former owner bought this handset. The shop sent the HD to a repaircenter, but the repaircenter returned the phone with the message that they found a non official rom, so they didn't repair it.
I'm not very familiar with customroms from XDA(right name or not?). Apparently the former owner installed the non-official rom. I downloaded and installed an official rom from htc.com.
The phone is having the same problems, but currently with a official rom.
My question is;
Are there still any traces or certain indications that there was a non-official rom installed? So the repaircenter won't detect a non-official rom or any trace of it?
I installed an official rom so are the traces overwrited, or not?
2.
If I navigate to ''System info'' and choose the tab ''Identification'' I see three items, including Imei. This Touch HD displays ''Not supported'' at Imei? That isn't normal, any idea why it displays ''not supported?''
Thank you in advance!!
If you have any questions, please ask them!

You say his phone is acting weird, but what exactly is it doing wrong?
Is it struggling to get connection to the network? Does it keep crashing? Does the picture go all scrambled like an encrypted satellite channel?
I don't know quite why it would say "Not supported" next to the IMEI in device information, but it does sound like something isn't quite right about the handset.
How long has your friend had the handset? I'd be inclined to get in touch with who he/she bought it from and ask what has been done with the handset. The IMEI field should never say "not supported" under any circumstances unless some attempt to modify the IMEI has happened and it's gone wrong.
Do you know if the IMEI was present in this screen with the custom ROM previously flashed on the phone?
@any HSPL users - if a user flashed a stock ROM onto a handset which had a custom SPL on (like Olinex's HSPL), could this cause issues like this? (I'm a USPL user, so wouldn't know).

You are correct. This is the wrong forum. Go with your initial feeling.

Thank you very much for your respond!
-With acting weird i meant that during the start-up of the device the graphic are really bad, weird colours etc.
-And the phone doesn't want to turn in the phonemodus, you can select on but nothing happens. If you try to turn off the flightmodus, also nothing happens.
-Phone reboots by itselfs
-Phonesoftware gets stock (right wordchoise?)
With the custom rom the imei ''not supported'' message was already there..

Please take some time to read the "sticky" topics.
On a first glance, it sounds like there is a mismatch between your USPL/HSPL and the ROM flashed.
Modern 1.56 ROMs require OliNex HSPL/USPL 1.56 to function properly, otherwise you get a lot of screen and graphics issues and phone malfunctions.
In the sticky threads you can find advice how to fix your HSPL (or USPL, which one you prefer to use - HSPL is "hard" and you need to apply it only once and flash hundreds of times afterwards, while USPL is "soft" and it has to ber repeated before every flash)
In the same sticky threads, you can also find full instructions how to reflash your phone to the original state as it was when it came from the factory.
If you do so, nobody at the repair centre will be able to see the phone has ever been changed or mesed with.
It is possible to remove all traces of flashing, just check the "sticky" threads on the top of the threads list and there is a lot of step-by-step advice.

All this means, that phone was simply flashed in wrong sequence - please read HERE and do exactly what is said - if all weird thing are just those you wrote, your phone is fine

Please do some read from sticky, written by Digital Outcast. It will help you. By the way, there is nothing wrong between HSPL and HD IMEI. I've been using HSPL and I have no problem with my IMEI.

You English couldn't be more "perfect"!.........BRAVO

Thank you all for so far. I'm reading the guides where you linked to. Currently I'm in the bootloader of this HD. In the red area I see the following information (in yellow letters):
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.14. OLINEX
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
Can somebody tell me if there is HSPL or USPL version loaded on this phone?
No matters what the answer is, how can you see if this is an orginal SPL or not?
Thank you a lot you are really great with helping me!

I believe you are here:
If you wish to use USPL and it shows your current SPL as:
* Anything but 1.54.0000 - go to step (USPL1) on post 3

That's right, but that guide isn't useful in my case, I think, because I just need to know if there is a HSPL or USPL loaded on the phone. If there is I want to restore the orginal one and don't need a guide which explains how to install a H/U SPL.
So I don't know if there is (or how to see if) a HSPL or USPL is loaded on the phone I ask you guys for help.
I already found some *can't post the link, getting an error* about restoring. But I still need to know if I already have an orginal SPL or not. So please help me
Correct me if I'm wrong. (this is the first time I get in touch with, HSPL, USPL, custom roms etc,)

Agree with posts above. Follow the dummies guide and you should be fine. Post further responses in that thread

HELP! Softbank X04HT cannot be flashed!

i am trying to unlock this freak that i got from a relative from japan to work with any sim. i have downloaded diamond unlocker by olipro which is a three step-by-step process. so there, everything all set. but i cannot get to flash hardspl! tried all versions of it, signed, unsigned, developers edition, even jockyw's mfg spl. but none of them worked. unable to start the process because i cannot even do the first step which is the hardspl! i've here for a while and played with many htc devices but this is the first time i've encountered something like this. even tried flashing by bootloader, via activesync, internal storage, all possible methods i can think of, but to no avail. all just end up stuck at 0% and nothing happens until an error message comes up.
is there someone out there who had the same issue before and found a solution to this?
seems like it is nearly impossible to unlock this.
the phone is in japanese language, and the annoying "usim nag screen" keeps popping up! really frustrating! someone pls help!
here are details:
DIAM100 64M
SPL-1.73.0000
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x32
hope someone can help!
thanks in advance!

i am not even sure if one those paid unlock via imei process floating over the web will work on this.
