Install ROM with malfunctioning volume button?? - XPERIA X1 General

Hey
I´m been searching the forum for the last hour and haven´t find how you install a rom with the pc, Can only find the storagecard method..
I want to install the default rom on my xperie because some buttons on the keyboard inclusive the volumebutton so the storagecard method isn´t an option for me..
Could someone help me out ?
thx

Most roms downloaded will come in a folder that has a rom update utility prog. Connect your X1 via activesync and run the program and follow on screen instructions

Thx for the tip,
but the two stock roms that i´ve downloaded here only come with either an .image or .nbh file without any other update utility..
The reason why I have to change back to the stock rom is only to be able to send it on service since the volumebutton and some keys on the keyboard won´t work..
So i´m still looking for a way to install the stock rom without using the volumebutton at the startup..
thx in advance

Download a ROM that comes with an installer and simply use that with the stock image.

Verbose Mode ON:
Download any ROM that comes with the RUU flasching tool (Xperia GEN, Touch-IT, ...)
Unpack the archive and delete the file RUU_signed.nbh. Rename the original ROM file as "RUU_signed.nbh" and place it in the RUU folder.
Now, flash your ROM with the provided installer.

Hello
Ive the same problem with defect buttons....
my qwertz keyboard sometimes is not funcional and the vol buttons doesnt work anymore....
if you have installed a custom rom based on R1A or R2A stock rom you only need the HardSPL package.....
there is an exe file "enterbootloader.exe"...... only copy it to your storage card and then run it on your X1...... now you have entered the bootloader and can do a reinstall/update of your ROM with SEUS and you will get the Stock rom....... after this you only have to install the stock SPL from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218
manual is on buttom of the first post.....

Lost rom SD card backup file-How to original downloaded rom?

I have lost the SD card backup before appling the 27 MB anakasy/MKS patch.
I tired to flash using the original clubimate downloaded 1.11 but after the same my STORAGE folder is missing.
Please help to slove this issue...
This is weird. I have twice done the Anansky and then installed another normal ROM on top of it, with no probles whatsoever. Maybe it's the I-mate ROM you are installing that's bad? Have you tried another ROM?
I have tried JAM 1.06 ROM and O2 1.11 ROM but no way get it work. Still same issue with storage.
One thing I noticed that before this issue I can flash the ROM after diabled the activesync and phone is normal mode. Now after this issue I have to switch the phone to boot loader for normal downloaded ROMs to start flashing.
Please help.....

It sounds like you're only flashing the radio+ce. Can you verify that there's a file called ms_.nbf in folder you're updating from?
Yes it contain all the three files ms_.nbf, nk.nbf and radio_.nbf...
I don't think you even should get to a point, where you can see which files are included in the installer. Just download the right ROM for your Magician and run it. Too often we see ppl having problem running a hacked upgrade and instead of just reverting to the original thing, they try to hack some more! Well, not all hacks works...
Other than that, I see 3 options as it is right now...
1. Redo the whole thing! Try to flash the Anansky and see if you can get that going. If you can, try running the normal ROM update afterwards. If it doesn't work...
2. You can ask for a kind soul with the exact same original branding as yours (I-mate, Qtek or whatever and same country) to upload a backup of his ROM. Overwrite the first 416 bytes from your own ROM and try to install this new ROM. If that doesn't work either...
3. Get the ROM flashed in a service centre.
Well.. You have something like ten active threads about this flying all over the net, yet when someone takes the time to try help you, you don't reply. You just move on to the next thread. If you don't take those trying to help you seriously, then I for one won't waste any more time on this...
I have solved my JAM's problem. Backed-up my friend's JAM ROM and restored in my JAM. Now everything working fine. Thanks a lot for all help...

Hello, thanks for this. I presumed it worked fine for you?
I was wondering, is there some way to flashing it back to original? I mean, if i want to flash back to the o2 rom? Is that possible, and if so, how? I have not seen the o2 rom anywhere yet??
Can you tell me what you found to be the biggest difference in the new rom? Is there momre included software?
need not to unlock cid first, it can overwrite the original german rom.
FOR can
not get the german rom. therefore, cant write back to german rom.

Hi.
I tried this procedure on my Norwegian Qtek S200 with ExtROM 2.10.7.108. It all went fine until the phone started flashing. At 1% I got an error message on PC, which I don't remember, I clicked Exit and the update program stopped and nothing more happened on the phone. I restarted the phone and now the display only shows a red/green/blue screen and absolutely nothing happens. Phone won't start anymore.
Anyone who can help me out? Is there any way to flash the ROM from from SD-card? Help...! ;-\
Thanks, OrvarK

If you are still having the problem please take out the battery and wait ca. 3-5 secs and reinstall it back again. After doing this you can power up your device once more. And it should fine.

If you flash an OS only ROM, and us soft/jump SPL, it'll always be recoverable.

You'll need to use Hard/Soft SPL.

SnapVUE ROM 1.30.453 WWE + GPS drivers

OS.nb from HTC's 1.30.453.0 WWE ROM, including the latest GPS drivers in OEMAPPS.
You need to create a NBH file and use Hard SPL + Custom RUU to flash it.
ROM download Link:

(ROM) Anyone can help me the correct way to flash my Viva

Hi there, i have some problem regarding flashing the ROM..
Currently i am using WM 6.1 for my HTC VIVA..and i wish to flash it to WM6.5..
But i dont know the correct way...
Anyone can help me up?
whats the issue in it its easy just download it connect ur phone with the pc sync it and run the exe
it will simply guide u through the procedure
please note data will be lost from ur phone memory
me too. im confused. please help
Flashing your Viva
Hey guys, I'm a newbie here also and you are right, it is confusing. But here's what I've been able to figured out.
Go to this thread and download the file Opal_HardSPL_v2_0.zip.
When you uncompress this file you'll find see the file Opal_HardSPL_v2.exe. This program is what you use initially to flash the ROM of your Viva so that it's able to be Flashed with newer ROMs.
Download the ROM of your choosing. Sorry, can't help you much here. There are a lot of different ROMs out there and everyone's tastes are different.
Some of the ROMs that you download come with an installation program and some do not. After un-compressing your downloaded ROM if all you have is the single file RUU_signed.nbh then all you have is a ROM.
If you need an ROM update program there are a few out there to choose from. Here is a link to one that you can use.
If your ROM didn't come with an instalation program then copy it into the directory with the installation program you just downloaded and uncompressed.
You need to have your Viva connected and synced to you computer before continuing. Once this is done Flash your Viva with Opal_HardSPL_v2.exe that you previously downloaded.
Re-sync your Viva to the computer.
Flash your Viva by double clicking the ROM Update utility executable.
It takes about 10 minutes or so, be patient. Your Viva will reboot when the Flash is complete and you then just follow the instruction of the screen.
I think that about covers it. If anyone has any suggestions or updates or knows of something that I forgot to mention then please post a response.
Thanks
thanks for easy and quick steps, but i dont have guts to flash my touch viva.

T-mobile htc HD2 did not care anymore after installing rom

I have a T-mobile Htc HD2 did not you call more after installing a rom wrong (I believe), version 1.48, which is the rom that was in it was 2.13. This in English wanted to install one in Portuguese. I stopped with the phone without turning, if someone can help me

So youre phone is not turning on after flashing a new ROM? Sorry, its very hard to understand your post. The translation isnt the greatest... If you did try to flash a ROM and now youre phone is not turning on, do not tell T-Mobile what you did, it will void your warranty. Simply send the phone to HTC and tell them it just wont turn on. Theyll send you a new one under warranty. Good luck!
You tried to install a ROM for the Euro HD2 and that will brick a US HD2...the instructions here at xda clearly state not to use those on that phone.
As donkeypunch said, your only hope is to send it to HTC service directly, and not disclose what you did, just state that it suddenly won't boot anymore.
One person referred me to download the original rom for it is 2:13 ... and extract the file, you will see many files, has one. nbh, you rename it to leoimg.nbh, copy it pro sd, with the hd2 off you keep the volume down button and turn on the HD2, so install the rom by hd2 sd .. Already downloaded the rom just do not have these files available. Only the executable program's rom. Does anyone know where this rom down this way?
i also facing the same problem after i install ROM and now my HTC HD2 totally cannot turn on. Any solution? please help! Thanks in adcvance!
We have been seeing this more and more. I hate to tell you this but it is time to send it back as you have a very nice brick now. Please guys/gals Read before you flash, understand what you are doing before you try and you will save alot of time.

You need to unzip the exe file and it will give you the rest of the files. Good luck but dont count on it fixing it
