How do I update my rom using vista?? I'm going crazy - Touch HD General

Ah i'm just trying to update the radio.
Can someone tell me how to do it? The wiki is just confuzing me more.
The wiki and threads I've read just confuse me more.
Is this what ur sposed to do:??
1. GET customRUU.exe
2. put HD_Blackstone_Radio_1.10.25.25.nbh in customRUU directory.
3. load and follow instructions
4. get bar that doesn't get past 0%
5. get ERROR [262]: Update error, communication errors.

by the way i think I have an unmodified standard rom.

Copy the .nbh into the root of your storage. Enter bootloader mode by turning phone off, then press vol down and hold down while quickly pressing the power button. Keep holding the vol down key until you see the tricolour screen. It will then find your .nbh file on storage card and ask if you want to install. Once finished, soft reset and away you go.
Make sure you have Hard SPL.

As others have said, you need hard spl, I have vista 64 and the updater works perfectly.

why can't I CID/SIM unlock my phone?

Hi, I just got my Tytn from ebay, and I can't unlock it.
I unlocked my friends fine. but for me, It keeps hanging at 0%.
what's going on?
any help will be great!
also, when I try to just flash it. the phone won't go into bootloader mode.
Try doing it from the flash card.
I searched the forums and people said reflash it. But it won't work...
how do it do it from the flash card?
Thanks
sorry double posted. I press back by accident.
edit::
in tri color screen it says.
HERM100
IPL-1.01
HERM100
SPL-1.40.Olipro
None of the flashes people mentioned works! i searched. it keeps saying my phone is not connect to active sync.

Go to Bootloader mode: Hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus
Then Flash to any ROM you want !!

Does not work, none of the roms detect my phone

1. Search for "mr vanxs guide" so you have an idea on what you're doing.
2. OK, as Asfarizal said "Go to Bootloader mode: Hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus". If you cant work out what the buttons are, go to the manual. it will tell you.
3. type in "hard SPL" in search on the forum & download the .zip or .rar file. this should have 2 files inside when opened,
a). RUUWrapper.exe and
b). RUU_signed.nbh
sync Hermes and double click .exe file. follow prompts.
4. find a rom that you want (would suggest TNT SE as a fairly good rom for noobs... good and stable, no problems...) Again download, then (and this is personel preference) format an sd card fat 32 and copy RUU_signed.nbh into root directory. Rename it Hermimg.nbh. Put into Phone and put into bootloader(make sure the battery is more than 50%) follow prompts. This should get you out of trouble. You can also sync your Phone and double click on the RUUWrapper.exe HOWEVER, if you should reset your computer, pull out the usb cable or have anything else happen to the computer that interrupts the flashm, you could end up with a worse brick than you have now. try to read up on flashing (search for "mr vanxs guide") and this should help you a lot if you have other questions. Good luck and happy flashing......

for usb option got to "port" and then use the scroll bar to go down below com 8 you should see com 9 then com 10 then usb...

First off, what rom are you currently running? Second, which rom are you flashing to? Is your device Hard Spl'd? Which method are you using to flash? (uspl or hard spl?) I was running the stock tmobile rom, and I used the uspl method to flash to open touch 3.0. When I tried to go from 3.0 to 5.0, I got that same error 202 message at like 2%. Sometimes you have to enable advanced networked through the start/settings/usb to pc. I decided to hard spl my phone and hard no problems since flashing to any rom. I would recommend it, but definitely do some reading before you do. You can brick your phone. Oh, and yes, you can flash from your memory stick, but your phone has to be hard spl'd first.

I am running open touch 5.0v and trying to flash to 5.2v open touch. I have flashed other roms with no problem but something is wrong with the 5.0v touch it doesn't let me connect to a computer. The only way
is to flash using a memory card. If you can please tell me the steps of how to flash from a memory stick. I would appreciate it thanx

So is your phone hard spl'd? If it is then you can do the memory stick method. Here are the steps.
To flash via hardSPL method:
1) Place extracted .nbh file into root of microSD card
2) rename file to HERAIMG.nbh
3) Place into bootloader (hold camera button while doing soft reset)
4) continue to hold camera button untill white screen with instructions appears
5) slide the volume button down to begin flash
6) don't touch anything until it's done, then follow on-screen instructions

Its not very hard to be honest
You must flash HardSPL first to be able to flash any rom and hardspl will work for blac100 and blac120
More info and instruction about HardSPL
Tips about flashing the rom
Use fully charged device
* Switch off your device by holding the Power button untill a menu pops up
* Go to bootloader by holding Volume down + Power button at the same time
* Connect your device to your PC
* Start BlackStoneCustomRUU.exe and follow the onscreen instruction's
There are countless ROM's out there and everyone has different tastes so there is no point asking any questions on which is better etc etc etc.
I am curretnly using Duttys 2.3 rom and would recommned it or Laurentius26 V9.0
Hope this helps!
Laurentius26
I got mine from hong Kong when I was there in Feb, it was in chinese too. then I went to the wiki page, downloaded the Hard SPL, once that was done I just picked any ROM on the wiki page, I chose Dutty 1.7 at the time. copied the NBH file to the root of the SD card, made sure the name of the NBH file was BLACIMG.nbh and then used restarted the device with the key presses mentioned in the wiki and flashed it to english. MAKE sure you have at least 50% charge before you start.
the WWE versions are the english roms. I believe its mentioned in the wiki too.
Since then I've maybe flashed like 10 or more times and tried different roms. it doesn't matter which rom you pick. its a matter of personal preference. just take the time to read the wiki in detail and you'll be fine.
if you are getting a retail touch HD it will come with an 8GB SDHC micro SD and the usual accessories.
as of now I'm on dutty's 2.3

Instructions
Download Hard-SPL package from attachment, extract to an empty folder.
Unsigned_HardSPL_for_Blackstone_OliNex.zip
You must Have Phone Sync'd with PC in Windows Mobile!!!
Run HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe on PC,
make sure it's launched from a local drive (not through network drive, etc.).
if you are on vista, launching as Administrator is recommended,
Follow steps in the RUU
check device for prompts after PC shows loading bar
press Yes on phone if asked.
Some notes: When RUU says it will hard reset, do not worry, it is not going to do that. also when it says the flash will take 10 minutes, ignore that, it will only take a minute or so.
Device should go to a tricolour screen now that says 1.07.OliNex, the SSPL version, which is temporary.
In a bit unusual way, it will take a few seconds for the RUU to detect the device, but do not worry, as soon as the "USB" text on the tricolour screen shows up, RUU will see device.
SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done.
To confirm you got it installed,
go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) (Switch off your device by holding the Power button untill a menu pops up > Go to bootloader by holding Volume down + Power button at the same time)
verify the screen shows 1.14.OliNex, which is the Hard-SPL version.
I just got my Touch HD over the weekend and I used USPL so that I don't void the warranty:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462347
However, you need to have XP. Tried it on Vista but not successful. Luckily I had an old XP laptop stuffed away somewhere

oh really?
when it says
"Execute blac_uspl.exe;" do i just find the file ont he computer and double click it? or do i have to like install it using the phone?
and " If everything goes well, your device will restart and SPL version label should read "1.14.USPL" indicating that USPL was loaded successfully."
once that is done then... am i done?
this next part is when i want to flash a rom right?
("You can then start RUU update to flash RUU_signed.nbh. Once RUU update is completed, device will restart using regular flashed SPL.
If you want to flash from SD card instead, make sure your SD card is not inserted when you enter the bootloader originally.
SPL will try to install it and would fail if blacimg.nbh is not signed by HTC. Insert the card after "USB" label comes up in SPL but before running USPL.
You can run "blac_uspl.exe ?" to get command line parameter help. Only 1 parameter is accepted and that is the name of an SPL file you want to load. You can load an MFG SPL or HSPL. USPL automatically takes care of allowing unsigned/cooked ROM flashing with any SPL you use.")
man. i dont have XP
thers no way on vista?
thanks for the inconvenience.

Yes, you need phone sync'd to pc using your usb cable before running HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe?
What I mean by local drive is your C:/ drive or local disk and not by using other drives you may have i.e. G:/, H:/, J:/ etc
When you run HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe a screen will appear on your pc and it will have these steps on it for you to follow. i.e. just follow these steps

( do i put it in bootloader mode?)
what will show on the phone when i connect it?
and when i connect it. i just plug the usb in the phone and the computer and thats it?

Yes you need to extract it from zip as it will not run from within zip folder
Personally I ran it just from the desktop, i.e. I put HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe on my desktop
when you have your phone connected and in bootloader mode at the bottom on the screen it should say 'usb'.
then launch HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe, follow steps, then your done.
As I said put phone back into bootloader mode afterwards and verify the screen shows 1.14.OliNex, which is the Hard-SPL version.

HTC HD2 6.5 to Android back to 6.5 or 7?

I got this phone on Ebay because I am poor. It was a T Mobile unlocked that was changed to Android. I can't get rid of the old user name and don't have the password for the Android market account set up on this phone. I can't do a factory reset and I need help. I would prefer to put 7 on it but I would be happy putting 6.5 back. Android would do if I could reset the user account. I do hope someone can help me. I am not very technically gifted but I can follow easy instructions. Please help me.

Because you are new at this I suggest flashing the stock T Mobile from your SD card. It is the simplest and safest thing to do.
You may need the Serial and IMEI numbers located under the phones battery.
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32
2. Go to T Mobile web site and download the rom. It will ask for you IMEI number this makes sure the rom is for your mobile.
3. Unzip/unrar the downloaded file into a folder on your PC
4. Rename the RUU_signed.nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh
5. Copy the LEOIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card
6. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone
7. Reset the device while pressing the volume down button to enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top
8. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update
9. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device.
What if you want to flash it without using the SD card? I flashed android using NAND but I want to put WM 6.5 back.

I think doing it with the SD card is only way to get back to 6.5.
You could always boot into the boot loader by holding the up volume and power key then flash a 6.5 Rom.

Everyone has forgotten to find out what device this is, t mobile are all over the place and some ship 1024MB versions, don't flash anything until you work what you need, flashing incorrect tmobile roms could give you a really bad day and an expensive paperweight
I tried the data cable first and it won't sync with active sync because it is at this time android. It just isn't recognized as anything but a usb storage device. Then I tried the card. I put all the files on the card according to the directions and hit the volume down button and the power button and nothing happens. I then have to remove the battery to turn it back on. The screen that comes up when I first start the phone is dark forces team. There has to be a way to do this.
You have to be holding vol down before u even press the power button, then press the power button simultaneously. U should see a tri-color screen then connect your usb to pc and flash the 6.5 ROM
Make sure u start with the phone off

I had a few attempts before I got it so try again.
It worked for me with a 16GB card.
Turn off your mobile.
Hold the Volume Down and End Call (power) buttons at the same time.
When "Searching" appears on the screen, release the Volume Down button.
This guide may help. But ignore the things about custom ROM’s and HSPL for now.

ok, there are two versions of the HD2, one with 512MB one with 1024MB, some t-mobile US phones (TMOUS) have 1024MB, if you ge the wrong ROM you could potentially bugger your device
for instance, flash a ROM with a unsupported radio on your device than game over....potentially
if you have a TMOUS 1024MB HD2
flash to .51 radio an its screwed
flash to .50 radio an its ok, except 2.05.50.x radio which will screw it
and stick to TMOUS ROMS as well
if you have the regular world wide version we can flash to what ever we like
its important to find out what someone is using before recomending them to flash any WM6.5 ROM because if by chance that ROM contains an incorrect radio version for that hardware then its game over.

[Q] Hellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllp

I was trying to install blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1 on my blackstone. I installed olinex and after that stored the nbh and exe file on the sd card and then through task 29 flashed it. The rom got successfully installed but now the phone is stuck at the bootup. It says
Checking Radio...
Checking protocol..
Checking Rom..
But now won't get to the next screen.Because of this i can't get to active sync. Please help..Pleaaaasseee
Did u follow the instructions completely, cause it worked fine for me and others... Do you have radio 1.14 or above installed? Did u try to reflash?
ok, no need to worry. Boot into bootloader. What is your SPL?
Yes i did follow the instructions. Now the phone won't bootup. I tried it with the volume down and power up method. Rom does get installed but then again it won't bootup..
Did you try Vol UP + Vol Down + Power ?
Yes i did try that after my phone got screwed up with test29 method but it shows nothing at all after successfully installing rom..:-s
no need to worry
always read read read and must read before flashing. I think your phone is quite ok. You does task29 to it. what is task 29 means. it means task29 will clean our device completely only splash screen displyaed, phone always stucked on this screen. it is very normal, it means you completyely cleaned your device. now you are ready to flash your device. do the following procedure--
1. remove the battery and reinsert it.
2. now turn on the phone while pushing volume down key.
then bootloader (tricolor screen) mode will be displayed. many times it will not come into bootloader and device normally starts and stuck on splash screen. the reason is simple, you didnt press volume down key properly, it happend many times to me also.
Now remove battery cover, remove battery and reinsert it, dont cover the battery, now take slylus & press volume down strip with the stylus. ( volume up & down keys are installed in battery cover, so when you push volume down key in flap open condition, it should be done by stylus.)
ok
push volume down by stylus & hold it and start the device, it will come in tricolor screen means bootloader mode, on the bottom screen it will show serial.
Now conect the device to the pc & bottom line on the screen will become serial to USB.
Now perform task28= means flash normal rom, do not perform task 29 again.
task29 will take 1 minute to flash while normal RUU will take about 7-8 minute.
try it and give feedback/

Have you flashsed a differnet radio ?
What you did is just Task29 your phone. Task29 needs something to flash in order to do its thing. Usually we flash radios (good ones obviously) because they are smaller than full roms. If you flash a full rom with Flash29, it will get erased after completion.
What you need to do now (since your phone now has no ROM installed) is boot it while pressing volume down to get to the bootloader, plug via USB and flash a rom using a "non-task29" flasher, like the standard BlackStoneCustomRUU.exe file that comes with basically every rom.
Hello thanks for replying my internet wasn't working but i did manage to boot my phone but now the touch stops working after. I know this as i press the volume button and the phone responds to that hence telling me it's not really freezed up. This is all what i did.
Stored .nbh file in the task 29 folder this is the rom version whose nbh file is used (RUU_Duttys_HD_V3.9__XT_Turbo_5.2.21051.1.6.4_1.59.709.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.14.25.24_)
After the flashing is done i reset the phone by taking out battery and starting it again in bootloader.
Now i flashed again with (blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1)
After installing it completely the touch stops responding.
Kindly help me with what seems to be the problem. Thanks

Yes that one is fine. Once T29 is complete take out battery and then re-insert it. Now put phone into bootloader (hold vol down and press power on while still holding vol down. BOOTLOADER IS A TRI-COLOUR SCREEN).
Now flash your rom
i also flashed blackstonhenge hyperslim 4.6 and now touchscreen stopped working....any solution...
