how did you uninstall hard spl in first place...
by putting back original spl
What error you get when you hard spl?
it stays on 0% and never move then it asks me to make a recover
1. Unlock your polaris
2. Than Hard-spl your device
PS: Only use the hard spl in the link provided. Disable your antivirus before procedure.
this might work.
thanks at first
but the first link cant be downloaded
and i think it is just an earlier version of hard spl 2.0
so i think it wont be usefull
From what I've read on a while ago on XDA, if your rom flash progress hangs in the middle of the process, it may be because of the fact that your current radio is too new for your 'old', original rom. You should try to flash an earlier radio before you flash the complete original (6.0?) rom.
And if you get it flash half of your rom, you probably didn't remove HardSPL, but correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not that familiar with it.

As I recall, the figures above indicate that you do have the original SPL. You should try to flash an original rom (if you don't have one, i have a dutch one here (wm6.0). If that doesn't work you should try to flash hardspl (hold the camera button while softresetting to enter bootloader) ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351964 ) and then try to flash a newer rom.
Where are you from?
Btw. I forgot to tell you that you need to flash an old radio too if you're going to flash the original rom. (if you don't have one already).
And when you have hardspl on your device, it'd be wise to flash a rom which include a radio.
I'll be away for a couple of hours, so I've put the original (dutch WM6.0) rom (incl. the original spl, but I think (dont know for sure) you need hardspl2.0 just to flash anything.) online here, let me know if your figured it out.
well thank you for all the help
but i am sadly informing it didnt work if the problem is the radio the i just need to flash another one .
it is just i cant or i dont know the right method to flash the necessary radio
would any one please tell how to flash radio from the boot loader when i dont have hard spl
Maybe a stupid question, but why can't you flash hardspl2? And do you have an unlocked device? You don't live in the Netherlands by any chance right?
why I can't flash hard spl 2 ?
actually I don't know
maybe because I am stuck in the boot loader
and sadly I am living in Saudi Arabia so we don't have much programmers around here nor people who have PDA
that's why I can't find someone to help
Can you describe exactly what you do step by step on your pc and pda and how your hardware is connected?
update: and tell me what messages are on your screen and if you get any errors
well first i connect usb so the pda directly starts boot loader (the screen with three colours)
after that whatever (ROMUpdateUtility.exe) i use the installing stops to give me this messege:
the rom update utility has encountered communication errors during the update process . the program will guide you step by step to recover from the errors so you can continue with the update.
this happens with every rom i tried including the har spl exept for the original rom it advance untill 38% then stops and give me the same messege.
if i try the (step by step ) process it ends up the same way .
anyway what i understand that my problem will end once i put (hard spl)
or if flashed another radio all i need to know is how to do either of them from the boot loader.
i have been so needy but sorry for that i am just sad about my pda i like it alot
I dont think it changes anything, but you do keep the camera button pressed while softresetting your device to get into the bootloader?
Usually your device only gets to the bootloader when you do that, but i can imagine that when your rom update failed and the device cannot boot a rom, it stays in the bootloader, but not in flash mode? Worth a try..
Tell me what appear in your PDA screen during boot. I want to know the information on the first screen like below:
R:
G:
D:
These information usually appear on the right bottom corner or your screen when you boot your device.
Since then voila I install a rom for the first time I have a bug here is a picture to help you understand
It is an image that I have requests in the forum but am in all its images
More information please!
We need more information!
Are you using SPL or USPL?
What ROM did you flash?
Did you perform a hard reset after flashing the ROM?
If you're not sure about the above then read this for SPL:

Here is how I do I install rom always full of the same problem
Olinex I install 1.56 and then the official 1.56 rom 2009
The picture you supply isn't from the official 1.56 HTC ROM because it is running Windows mobile 6.5 (I can tell from the user interface). The official ROM uses Windows Mobile 6.1.
I think you need to make sure that you flashed the correct ROM and then flash the device again. After doing this make sure you hard reset afterwards at least once, preferably twice by holding down both volume buttons while powering the device on.
Also unless you have a CID locked phone that is branded eg. Orange, you shouldn't have to use Olinex HSPL and can download the official ROM from here:
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=533
In any case you should confirm which SPL you have by holding down the lower volume button while booting (it will tell you either SPL or HSPL along with version number).
Let us know how you get on...
G
HSPL 156 OliNex and htc is a factory not orange or other
Okay, it sounds like you have successfully installed HSPL, but now you need to try flashing the ROM again (it appears to be the ROM that is causing the graphic corruption in your picture).
Make sure you perform two hard resets after flashing and hopefully this should solve your problem...
Cheers,
G
P.S. Make sure you back everything up prior to re-flashing as you will lose everything in phone memory (SD card should not be affected, but my advise would be to remove it anyway until you have re-flashed).
Hi there,
Hope you can help me...
Since i bought my Cruise, I flashed it to the newest ROM version of HTC and it automatically installed SPL 3.13 with.
The problem is that if I want to install the WM 6.5 rom, I have to "Downgrade" My SPL version from 3.13.0000 to 2.20.
I followed the steps explained by "Olipro", but when the upgrade starts, RUU kills activesync (seems to be normal) and when the phone normally reboots in bootloader mode (like when you flash a new rom), nothing happens. The phone didn't shutdown and tries to establish a new USB connection !
I tried to turn manually the phone in bootloader mode on to force the SPL update, but the % bar stays at 0 and RUU returns a communication error (262).
I tried also to install the wm 6.5 rom without install SPL 2.2, but it crashes (stays @ 0% too)
I don't know how to install this stinky version of HARD SPL.
Heeeellllpppp !!
NOTE : I tried with or without µSd, does the same thing.
Thx
hmm try disabling firewall and antivirus one of them may be blocking the connection. Thats my only thought about it.
Thank you for the answer but it don't work...
Nobody can help me ?
Try to extract the files from the newest htc rom to a new folder, and then copy the "RUU_Signed.nbh" from the SPL V2 folder to the extracted files (to the new folder) and run the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" from the extracted files (from the new folder).
nope ...
Please, consider my asks...
I know there is necessarily a solution but I have not yet found.
I don't know where/why it is crashing.
What does the HTC need to downgrade the hardspl ?
Is there a protection that can't be bypassed with the 3.13 ?
The only thing that I can do atm, is flashing the official HTC rom (useless ^^).
The actual version of my rom is :
_HTC Touch Cruise_RUU_Polaris_HTC_FRA_3.13.406.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship
Thanking you in advance...

HSPL 3.13? In this ROM is ver. 3.13 drivers, not HSPL... If you have original ROM and you dont install Olipros HPSL, you have original HTC SPL...
When I enter bootloader mode, the HSPL version is : 3.13.0000
Of course it's the original htc HSPL.
The problem is that I can't downgrade it to the olipro's version : 2.20.
Did you try it on other PC?
2 PCs, 2 USB cables..
The official rom upgrade works fine, I dont think that the problem comes from the computer.
definite guide:
1. establish a connection with activesync via usb (orbit2 to pc)
2. start the romupdateutility provided in hardspl folder.
3. before it starts flashing, you need to also follow on-screen instructions on orbit2!!! execute jump-spl and stuff: click yes on orbit2!!
4. when the orbit2 states: Replug USB. you need to plug the usb-cable once off and then put it back to connect to your pc.
5. it starts flashing and restarts after its done.
Hi Manaaa,
I don't know what is jumpslp ??
I found it on the web (xda..), copied it in my "my documents" folder, ran it but it asks me a jump address (default is 0x00000000) and an spl (*nb) file..
What is jump spl ? What is the address to jump to? and where can I find the *nb file ?
In the olipro's hspl folder is only a *nbh file.
Thank you
I wouldn't recommend using a jump spl for our phones if there isn't one in the Hardspl Pack then one is not needed to be run.
Personally im still really confused by this so if i get it straight.
You are synced with activesync.
Run the file for Hardspl Run RomUpdateUtility.exe
Then go though. It switches off activesync.
Then what?? Exactly Does it ask you to replug the cable? Do you get the rom flash screen (with %) at all??
Also i dont think that spl flashes can be run from the booloader as it has to be a modded bootloader (jumpspl if you will), loaded by the program to be able to flash the new hardspl.
Also i know very little on this, this is as much as i understand it to be.

Normally, after killing activesync, the phone turns into bootloader mode. Mine stays in winCE and tries to establish new usb connection...
I also decided to force manually bootloader mode and killing activesync by myself.
I ran RUU again, it first checked the phone state (such as battery >50%, connectivity...)
CHECK : OK
Next step, by clicking "NEXT" on the RUU interface, the phone turns in "% mode" and the update starts but stays at 0%.
After a while, RUU returns an update error (such as 262).
Noway to flash hardSPL :'-( , v3.13 seems to be "write protected".
ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR
This error occurs during the CE ROM code upgrade process. If this happens, you can just soft reset the device and run RUU again. The update process will then continue. At this stage the rom on the device is incomplete and it will not boot back up into Windows. You will need to place it into the bootloader to continue.

That is what error 262 is but really dont see why this happens either. And since you can boot into windows its not much help.
So it just wont go to flash it when you click it through, hmm
Your last resort would be to PM cmonex as she will have helped make this with oilpro. Ask and see if she can shed some light on this one. Maybe something has gone wrong somewhere (quite likely) that we don't know how to fix.
Stupid question but have you tried downloading, unzipping it again? May have been a bad dl... or unzip
Have tested it with about 10# DLs...
I PM'd Olipro, waiting for a response now
Flash back to HardSPL and don't Re-Plug
Hi Pixel,
Herewith are guide for you
1) Flash back to HardSPL and don't re-plug until end of session (5 minutes)
2) Flash back to original SPL 3.13 on this post . This original SPL for HTC Touch Cruise only
3) After you do this you cannot flash with other Cooked ROM or Shipped ROM
with different ID, unless you flash back to HardSPL
Good Luck my friend
I have exactely in the same configuration as Pixel69 with the same result.
I've tried to an other PC without any change.
Has somebody any idea?
Just had an idea what OS are you running to do it?
If its not 7 may not be fully compatible... Shot in the dark really
This is what I have done and transformed my htc touch viva into a brick :
I wanted to install WM 6.1 WWE 1.35.720.2 Stock ROM. I used Opal-SSPL-Manual.exe on my device. After that I installed version rom 1.35. After reset, I had ONBL 1.57.0000 and SPL 1.57.0000. Then I get the error "Your OS isn't customized for your hardware." Now I cannot revert to spl 2.00.cmon, I get error 270. Also I cannot install any other rom.
I really apreciate if anyone think that there is a chance to save my htc touch viva.
If you haven't tried to install any other rom using bootloader method then try:
1. Open your device's back cover.
2. Press the soft reset button (the red one) with ur stylus.
3. Just after pressing soft reset button immediately press volume down button and keep holding it until you see bootloader screen.
4. Then connect your mob with pc via usb cable.
5. Run rom update utility of a working rom.
That's it now it should work.
Thank you for your answer, but unfortunately when I try to flash a new rom I get error 294 : INVALID VENDER ID. Tried several roms, same error . I also tried to put SPL 1.26.0000 and SPL 2.00.cmon from my storage card (after renaming them as opalimg.nbh) with no succes.
Actually the biggest mistake you did is flashing another spl, why u did that just to install a rom from unknowns source and from a stranger (yes me talking about the user ddl.team).
Well, no more ideas left but try to flash the stock rom which came with ur device.
I am thinking to use htcRIE application to extract the SPL from there and modify it to allow me to flash any other rom, but I don't know what application to use to modify it.
Usually custom roms dont have any SPL so nothing to be extracted although you can try to remove spl and other things from stock rom and post.
Well, I tried, no success. The only thing that remained to try is to flash the stock rom which came with my device. Guess I will have to address to HTC service.
Lol you haven't tried to flash your stock rom?
I already suggested you, i think u just overlooked it. You should have read it properly. Anyways, try to flash if it didn't work then remove everything from stock rom except OS part with the rom editing tool.
Good luck.
that's why im afraid to flash cooked rom in my touch viva. mate,
I had stock 1.66 and I tried install 3.14 stock. I download ROM form HTC page after giving serial number.
All flash process on PC was done correctly, on PC was that flash is finish (it goes to 100% and then I can put only Finish) but on phone I saw only SPL 3.03 after a longer while I decided to reset phone but after reset there is still only SPL 3.03, when I tried install ROM again but it always goes to 1% (HTC logo on Phone is strange, has strange lines on it) and I have error on PC Invalid Model. I tried install older versions but situation is the same.
Is there any possibility to force install ROM in this case or phone is permanently dead now?
on bootloader screen, what does the model ID read as? (top line)

It kinda sounds like you downloaded the wrong stick ROM. Who is you carrier? And what model HD2 do you have?
