Hey Guys,
during the last three month I tried a lot of roms out of this forum.
But now I want to reinstall the original WM6 on my Herald.
Is it neccessary, to patch my HardSPL down, or can I install it with the 4.7version without problems?
Thans for your help.

You can flash an original firmware without removing HardSPL. But beware of the fact, that you can't use an original ROM (RUU) without modifiyng the image!
The easiest way would be to use an original RUU and extract the parts of it with nbhtool. Then build a new ROM with the extracted OS.nb and then use the HTC Tool with the new OS.nb and the extracted ExtendedROM.nb and Splashscreen.nb to build a new .nbh.
After that you can flash this .nbh-File (Image).
I hoped it helped a little bit.
step 1. download the software from t-mobile
step 2. remove battery
step 3. hold down the cam button and put battery in. turn on phone.
step 4. you will then see the USB mode on your wing, connect it
to PC
step 5. install software and follow instructions...
thats it.

Okay, so I'm an idiot. I'm completely lost now. Here's the basic facts:
Hard-SPL install was unsuccessful, but I didn't notice. So I'm still with original SPL.
I started upgrading the ROM with original SPL, which of course crashes at 3 percent.
Now I can't get back into WM. It's stuck at the 'smart mobility screen'.
So the problem is: it won't let me install any ROMs because original SPL is still on there. I can't change to hard-SPL anymore either. The ROM that's on the machine doesn't seem to work anymore. When I try to install an original ROM it says I can't use this utility. I think I need to download an official ROM + installer, but I can't find any from HTC.
Alright, so skip all the noob and idiot comments please, I already know. But where do I go from here?
Please help!

First you can try a hard reset!
Here you can download the original shipped rom with installer.

Okay, so I did the hard reset as described here. No luck.
So I went back to the bootloader screen (original SPL) and tried the original rom and installer from the download link. Again, no luck. It says "Error [294] Invalid Vender ID. This utility cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please check your update utility." The phone was unlocked when I bought it, it's HTC branded. Is there another installer out there?
I've also tried loading several roms by putting them on SD, renamed as POLAIMG.nbh. (including the orginal rom, extracted from the downloaded installer). For the original Rom, it will say 'loading...', then 'checking...' and then it will tell me: "00028002 - not allow". Then it goes back to the three colour spl screen.
There's also a link here on the forum which I'm not sure is good advice.

Hi
Ths info I posted relates to the Kaiser (kaiser [nearly] equals Polaris in terms of hardware) and the MTTY is from the ELF forum.
"set 16 0" to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
"task 8" to get your device formatted
I suggest the set 16 0 and a reset to see if that helps, I do advocate you searching for these commands and checking they are applicable.
The info was from this KAISER thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2103884

MTTY
Thanks for your advice guys.
I tried the "set 16 0" command + reset. Still same situation.
Any other tips anyone?
Darn
No more reponses?
It is probably bricked then.
So what's my next move...trash it?

I think he wrote already that he tried to flash some ROMS using SD card... (POLAIMG.NBH). Not sure though if he tried re Hard-SPL'ing using the SD flash method...
So I would suggest to retry the HardSPL using the POLAIMG.NBH method (just as if the HardSPL's .NBH file was a normal ROM) if this hasn't been tried yet...
Hey you must careffuly read mtty in kaiser thread.....mtty can brick your device for entire life.....my advice to you is pm GSLEON3
he's the master of using mtty and lot of kaiser user saved by him...
Hope this can help you
cheers
The Facts
When I try to hard-spl through the SD-card, it just says "Loading..." and that's where it stays - Even if I leave it till the battery dies. I tried the 2.10 and 1.10 versions on this page.
Are you sure? This Hard SPL suit for Hermes. You have to use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=375338

Hard-SPL through SD
You're right; I did notice that - however
I had to take an nbh from this page. The reason is that the HTC Cruise Hard-SPL program I found on this page won't let me extract the rom.
I need the rom file to put in on SD!
The Hermes one probably wouldn't work anyway though, thats a good point Where to get the Polaris separate rom nbh? I haven't found it on the forums. Maybe I'm going blind...

1. You can not flash hard-spl with microSD method! (hard-spl flash use jumpspl to ignore cid-lock. But with microSD card method you will not use jumpspl, so you can not flash hard-spl! (and to use microSD method you have to have hard-spl on your pda)
2. If you unzip hard-spl on your pc will be an RUU_signed.nbh. This is the rom file, but you can not to flash it with microSD.
3. Your device is bricked, I think. Take it to repair!
after an unsuccessful flash, u shud never try to flash again, high chance of permanently bricking your pda. go contact GSLEON3, he saved my kaiser from bricking when i made the same mistake as u. helpful fellow. make sure u donate lol
Accepted Defeat
Hi
I accepted defeat and exchanged the unit.
Thanks for all the help.

hi everyone. i am trying to install this cook rom Touch-IT v4.0 "Landscape" RC1.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485624
But the problem is, i dunno if i can just flash any rom.
i notice that there are 2 different software version..R2AA..and R1AA
im using R1AA017..and im wondering would that affect the roms that i flash?? or its safe?
Thanks alot! appreciate your help and time
Have you read the instructions and hard SPL'd your X1 first?
There are plenty of people out there using this rom who are very happy with it so I can only assume it is safe. I will be flashing this rom onto my x1 this weekend.
You can always flash your old rom back onto your x1 if you don't like the new one.
Just make sure you read all of the instructions and you hard spl your device first.
Edit: R2 roms are just the newer roms. The orignal roms were R1
i have used (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446070) to hard spl my phone a while back. and it looks good now.
so its safe to flash other roms?
also are these the steps to flash other roms now that i have already hard spl my phone?...
-Format a MicroSD card with FAT32 if not yet done
- Copy the Kovsimg.nbh into the root directory of your MicroSD card and insert the card in your phone
- Turn off the phone (USB cable not attached)
- Remove and reinsert the battery
- Hold the volume down button and turn the device on again, still holding both buttons until the 4-color screen shows up.
- Follow the onscreen instructions
i've notice that when i dl the file for Touch-IT v4.0 "Landscape" RC1.1 the file included a bootloader..should i run that?? or should i just follow the instructions above and just rename the ruu file to kovsimg?
plz help. i just want to clarify the instructions first...
help guys?
Yes. It is that simple.
hi guys im new here but been reading a lot over the last month or so. ive got a problem, ive tried searching but i cant flash my nbh file, do i need an update program??
cheers
That is a bit vague, what exactly is the matter? When you say you can't flash your nbh file do you mean you have tried to update your rom to the new HTC Official rom? Or are you trying to flash to a custom rom?
i have a cooked rom already installed, but i wanted to update it to a wm 6.5 rom, but the rom came only as a nbh file and no installer, so not sure how to flash it
cheers

Either download and use the Blackstone CustomRUU Wrapper or flash from the SD Card (search for instructions or check the wiki).

I was asked to patch USPL for ROM size checking when flashing via RUU, so this version does not check size even when flashing via USB. (original SPL skips the size checks only when SD flashing.)
I did this a few days ago, but didn't get around to posting it
download from attachment, enjoy! donations are always appreciated to the "To Cmonex" link in my signature
how to use it: if you already have a version of artemis USPL installed, simply flash this new version using RUU or from SD (ARTEIMG.NBH on FAT32 formatted SD)
in bootloader (tricolour mode) it should then say version: 1.11.cmon
for instructions on installing any USPL if you have no USPL yet - check out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403 until I have more time/motivation for userfriendly packaging
more plans: if I get time/motivation I might upgrade this to be full HSPL (overwrite protection)
Well done Cmonex..!
Thanks so much.
Peoples of Artemis forum wait it long times already.
Thread Sticked.
Cheers ..!

Thanks Cmonex, excelent stuff.
Thanks !
But I dont really understand. Can Flash under vista ou seven with no drivers ?
it's the same process.
The difference is that you can flash any rom without size limits.
Before you only could do this with SD Card method.
not working
its not working
it gives the same error : invalid size
canu explain step by step plzzzz
Is you bootloader showing SPL 1.11.cmon?
i have replaced the nbh file of artemis uspl with this one
then started uspl after that once it gets over i started
ruu upgrade utility
thats the way how it is done or something else
during this process no bootloader screen comes
And where is the response to my question? ....

I want to thank you very much for this useful work. However I couldn't try it yet Because at the end of the rom update utility application (I mean %100) it gives a error 270 udate error image file corrupted. Please check your update utility I have tried all these attempts while my phone is at the bootloader mode.
Thank you in advance

I have to go back to stock WinMo. How to do this? Lots of tutorials here.. But what is the good one?
Read something about downloading here the stock rom. Extract it and copy the .nbh file to your SD card as leoimg.nbh.. Will this also reset HSPL? After doing this, will it also install WinMo 6.5?
But what is the good one to get it back to stock? There are hundreds of topics. What is the good tutorial for doing this? Dont wanna brick my phone..
Got a HTC HD2 512.. Need a dutch rom. But when i install 3.14 from the topic above, will i be able to install Android again when it gets back from the fabric?

1. Download the required Stock Rom.
2. Extract it.
3. Plug your phone in via USB.
4. Turn your your phone off. Hold down volume first then hold down volume button to get into Bootloader mode.
5. Follow the prompts and wait for it to finish flashing.
6. Once it is done, click ok, close the program, and reboot the phone. Done!
