Need help in installing the V1.2

File was downloaded from Jeff Summer site. I click on the downloaded file and it would start unzipping and the adaptROM program would run itself. The Programme A shows up and and displays STEP 1, Welcome to ROM upgrade utility.
Go next. Release note is empty. Next again I will get the Error 007 message saying that NO ROM IMAGE FILE.
I am using AT&T SX56 and running Window 98, and had no problem upgrading before from Siemens site.What can I possibly do wrong?
Thanks.

try this.
unzip the 'jeff summers' file to a new folder on your desk-top for convenience.
check that you have
adaptrom.exe
programme A.exe
readme.rtf
start.bat
English (folder)
CLoader_serial.nb
CLoader_usb.nb
GetConnectionType.dll
Nk.nbf
remote_flash.exe
SetSystemTime.dll
if all files are present, connect your XDA and run start.bat.
if any files are missing, although they shouldn't be, download the .zip file again.

ROM upgrade headaches

Im trying to upgrade my jammin with the latest dopod rom ..Ive got hold of the romupdateutility.exe which bypasses the vendor id but now when i run the .exe it comes up with the error
'ERROR [240] File open'
As anyone got any ideas as to solve this problem?
Ive also tried the awizard tool but my jammin never seems to reset?
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks in advance

Ive managed to get the awizard tool to work and does reset the jammin but when i go then to install the dopod rom update in bootloader mode it comes up with ivalid provider id error ...... :? :? :? :?

Download and install WinRAR
Right click on the ROM you downloaded,
Extract the files to one folder.
In this folder, you will find 2 folders. You need to copy the files from both folders into one folder only.
Replace the RomUpdateUtility.exe as needed.
Double click on it and go.

Brilliant thanks alot thats where i was going wrong i wernt extracting both folders into the 1 ...Updating now
Thanks alot been pulling me hair out all day

You should expect the process to pause at 80% and 95%. Fear not, it will run its couse to 100%.
The new ROM is a lot faster. Try starting and stopping Blutooth. You'll notice the change in speed.

hmmm seem to have a problem where it stops at 46% and comes up with communication error 302 and wont go no further telling me to try a recovery :?

Yes, you'll take them all and put in one folder.
You'll replace the utility from the ROM with the one in my link above.
It doesn't matter what the folder is called.

I need the OEM Boot screen/how to change it

Hey
I just got my hermes. beatiful phone. I just upgraded from the 8125, i can't even look at it anymore (my old brick).
Anyway, i unlocked it yesterday and upgarded to wm6. I liked the default 3G (wit the flame) boot screen better than the "Bring Back the ROM page" (allthough that was funny).
I want to know,
1. can someone send the origional CINGULAR 3G(FLAME)=*=*=*=> boot screen?
2. After performing a few searches, i coudln't find out how to change the boot screen. Does anyone know how?

You can extract them from a commercial rom using NBHextract.exe

perfect ill try it when I get home. im on my mobile right now.

I could not find the nhbextract.exe, but i did open nbhtool.exe...
I have the default rom which i downloaded off HTC.com... how do i extract the nbh file from the exe? i tried to run the setup to see if it would extract files in any temp folder but i could not find it.
Help anyone?

heres the link to nbh extract
open the ROM exe file using WinRAR and get the nbh file.
Run: nbhextract.exe NAMEOFNBHFILE.NBH
and the file will be extracted (nbhextract.exe and the nbh file must be in the same folder)

It is possible to use Dutty's good NBH tool for extracting NBs from NBH. I think it is more n00b friendly way as they can use point and click method and thay are not bound to have NBH in the same folder.

nbhextract will convert the .nb files directly to bmp in the same process. Duttys tool just extracts the nb files.

Thanks for the help.
Unfortunately, the rom i downloaded from htc, has a .nbf file instead of a .nbh file (which is 73.xx megs). When i use the extractor, i get error :
Error: 'nk.nbf' is not a valid .nbh file
Could not open 'tempfile.dbh'
I also tried to change the extension of the nbf file to nbh but that did not help either as i got the same error. I'm downloading the rom from http://www.america.htc.com/support/docs/ruu_hermes_1.34.502.1_1.16.00.00_wwe_cws_ship.exe

Where can I get RUUpdater

I'm so sorry about this. I really have spent over an hour searching and Googling and reading the Wiki but I just can't seem to find this simple thing.
My O2 XDA Orbit is dead so I thought I'd try one last attempt to rescue it by re-flashing the factory ROM (WM5). I found this thread via the wiki http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306904 and am following the instructions for bricked devices. I downloaded the O2 Orbit WWE Wm5 factory rom from rapidshare, I have my device in the bootloader and it shows "USB" in the bottom left and the PC reacted and recognised the device when I plugged it in (but doesn't see it in Activesync).
The step I'm stuck on is that Meschle's instructions say "flash factory rom. (run rom executable or RUU updater from pc)". The rom is an nbh file so I suppose I need the RUU updater for PC. Where do I get this from? I just can't find it.
- Julian

dude if you downloaded the file the ROM you are talking about then you got ur self sorted - the package u have has the RUU or ROM Update Utility
when u go to bootloader, plug ur ppc to the pc and when u see the usb sign in the ppc screen just start the package u got from rapidshare it will do everything auto!!
let us know how you get on?
best luck with your 'surgery' it will be fine just dont worry

Maybe he downloaded simply a ROM file and not the complete package as usual. Download one of Meschle's or Tom's ROMs for example and delete the .nbh file inside the folder and replace it with yours.

true - Download any rom and delete the .nbh file inside the folder and replace it with yours. if u have ur rom on *.exe u can extract the ruu using winrar by right clicking and following the extraction!!

Direct download - a RUU
http://www.zshare.net/download/657626275df642/
this is a rom update utility - i got it from my files its only the ruu no rom is included so add ur *.nbh file to the extraction folder
BTW why dont u get artemis touch 3.01 rom its the best

"How-To Flash the HERALD-USPL-beta3:
Download and extract both files.
Place the extracted Open Touch v6.5 no spb or tl.nbh into the Herald-uspl-beta3/RUU folder.
Move the entire Herald-uspl-beta3 folder to the root of the c:\.
Follow the simple readme file.
Break down of how to flash this rom:
Then follow these steps:
II. How do I flash an NBH file?
a. USPL
Step 1. Download Herald-USPL-Beta3. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=A4N36HLO
Step 2. UnZIP the file into a folder on your Desktop. Let's call it "MyFirstROM" for simplicity's sake. Notice that there is a folder called RUU within this folder now. Keep that in mind.
Step 3. Download your NBH file and unZIP or unRAR it into that RUU folder. Make sure that that NBH file ends up in the RUU folder, not within a folder inside the RUU folder.
Step 4. Place your phone into flightmode.
Step 5. Go back to the MyFirstROM folder and then run USPL.exe
Step 6. Follow the directions on the screen. EXACTLY.
* Your screen on your cell phone will go white around the 75% part of the "second step" now.
* ActiveSync will LOOSE its connection.
Step 7. One step 3 on that black window, the RUU flasher will pop up. Just follow the steps.
That's it. Welcome to the flasher's world.

rapi.dll error when i ran the herald uspl :/ i was able to do it then error 202 upgrade ruu tool

Hmm... try install the .net framework 3.5 on your computer if you don't already have it... that's all I can really think of... or the runtime library files?

There are other steps you must do when you do a hard spl. I will try to find the info and post it in order of the way to do it.
