How to update official rom in a coocked rom - HD2 General

Hi,
I've download the new official rom for HD2 from htc site. Is a .exe. But when I click on it its gives me an error like: directory error or something likes it. Maybe because I've a coocked rom or hspl and not spl? How can I resolve that problem? I tried to run on htc and on computer with active sync but it doesn't work
Thanks!

Use the search! This is covered even with a video tutorial in one of the stickies. Now go find!

Maybe i'm idiot but i can't find it searching with "official rom error install" or "official rom error directory" and so on... Especially in sticky I don't see anything that can help me, maybe is for my horrible english. i'm sorry for my incompetence.

You need to screenshot the error and let us see it. I'm afraid "directory error or something" really doesn't help us help you.

if you have hspl installed there is no difference between custom or official rom flashing. go to the rom developement page and you can find very nice visual guides and videos about everything you need to know.

Yes, I've Hspl installed.. I see a lot of video and I flashed a lot of roms before but this error I've never had before....
I post errors it gives me...
Thanks a lot.

I'm a little concerned about the folder from the first screenshot. It says the ROM is in the folder G:\?HTC HD2?\.... That surely isn't correct. Try moving it to a different folder and running it again.
If not, it may have been corrupted when downloading. I know it doesn't happen often, but it does happen.
Just my thoughts.

Huh... just try to rename the exe to some simpler name like ROM.exe, those ?s look like there are some weird characters in the name, they'd have nothing to do there...
Or probably the download failed, if the rename doesn't work just redownload the file.
This has nothing to do with what you have on the phone, it's the PC not being able to run the ROM updater.
What Windows version?

The folder is a usb key, but i try to run it form desktop or a different folder and it gives me same errors.
I just try to download again (three times) the file. Maybe is corrupted himself, but I don't think that I've downloaded it corrupted three times
Windows xp

I renamed file and it works! What noobs thing XD
Thanks a lot!

I need SERIOUS HELP, Help ME!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE

I have a Mogul. That was Running 2.17 Official, tried to install DCD 2.1.0SPRINT, Said it installed successfully, on reboot it GETS STUCK IN HTC BLACK SCREEN. I tried to run RUU, GET ERROR 260. I can't connect through activesync either, Then I read To try to flash through SDCARD the official 2.17 renamed To TITAIMG. IT GET STUCK IN LOADING SCREEN, WHICH I LEFT RUNNING FOR OVER A HOUR, I ran out of ideas, and I hope I didn't brick My month old phone PLEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAASE HELP ME
Did you not read any directions or other posts?
You need to make sure you have the new radio, otherwise any rom that is 3.16 based will do this.
Flash original 3.16 to get the radio on the phone then do DCD's rom.
Also, try not to post retarded type like that makes it really hard to understand what your trying to say.
THANKS
Well thanks I guess, and I ll will try
Go into bootloader mode before flashing to ensure a good flash.
That has to be a .nbh renamed To TITAIMG right, and if so do you have a link. For some reason mine is a .exe

Open it up with winrar (or similar) to get the nbh file. Dude this is all pretty obvious stuff remember to do some more research into the device and its quirks before doing anything else
Man I looked In the winrar, And only 1 thing is in there and it was
3.16.651.0.exe. That is why I asked for a link to the right one, and I reaserched this and other sites for four days before I tried this.
It was the best I can do without hands on, Sorry to be such a burdan.
But I though this site would help me.

Extract the exe then take a look inside that one?? We aim to help all users but it is a two way process dude
Not sure if I have A good version of 3.16
sorry I dont know tried to open but a little black screen flashed.
Should i look for a different 3.16 rom.
Every other rom I have Has a .nbh
yea my 3.16 must not be real. Might be a dumb question, but I just want to ask. Can you flash a .exe on your phone
Sorry for any confusion, Can flash .exe through sc card
Your making it harder than it is.
1) Extract the exe via winrar.
2) Manually enter bootloader mode
3) Run the upgrade from a Windows XP Machine to be safe (just run the exe).
4) Let the device start
Fixed your phone in 4 steps.

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:
http://rapidshare.com/files/136927344/ROM_Shangrila_HTC_WWE_1.30.453.rar.html
how did you convert the nb file to nbh? what program to use?
by the way where is this rom from?
This is the rom for canadian shift, with telenav in it. Make a good base for custom rom. Hope the unlock still work. Rom is nice and speedy, but snapvued
It works. It can be unlocked as previous rom, and gps is in there. Seems to have more storage space also. Nice rom to wait for new ones.

G'Reloc error...

I'm getting crazy over here...
from one moment my G'reloc does give me errors when applying.
It says:
Can not open file C:\Kitchen\SYS\***\***
*** = a different map/file each time
I tried different G'Reloc.exe files and used different SYS-folders (even ones that worked before without any problems)
Can not cook roms anymore because they will not boot somehow...
Please help me with this weird error..
What are the files it's trying to access?
Also check out the IRC room they have, if it's still up at least.

It's a different file each time....beats me...
But often it is one of the bluetooth related files....
Maybe the files you downloaded were corrupted. Try manually replacing the files, or just uninstall and reinstall the kitchen.

Ok I know a little bit more...:
I formatted my laptop and did a clean install of windows...
After that g'reloc worked again.
I installed all programs I always use on my pc again.
And today when I used G'reloc again I get the same error each time. Even if I use different locations or diffirent SYS folders (also ones I know they work!)
Which program or setting interacts with G'reloc???
Merten i don't use that program because i don't know what it does.
But i tryed to open it but i think i got the same error as you got.
Is it something like this: cannot open file (root\dir\imageinfo.bin).
And then you only have one option to click the ok button (this will exit the program)?
Know i tryed some other g'reloc programs what i got and the all gived me the same error pointing to the imageinfo.bin and then give me one option to click the ok button.
But there was one g'reloc program what did work and gived me no error.
I send a email to you with g'reloc.exe so it could be that it will give your virusscan some trouble because it is a .exe file I hope it will work for you.
I will back in some hours so i can't respons to your questions so fast.

Thanx man for the effort. But I did not receive a thing... did you mail to:
[email protected]?
If your back maybe you can upload to rapidshare?
Thanx anyway!!
Well, I came across two things in PPCGeeks forum. People reported errors when they were running G'reloc on FAT32 en fixed it by changing to NTFS.
The other thing was that people reported a fix by just disabling their antivirus program. This might explain why it worked before you started installing all your programs on a clean windows install. I hope it works for you as well because I really like your roms

Apps Installation

Helo everyone. I'm new to the forum and to Windows Mobile. I hope this question is in the correct place....don't want to get bashed on my first post. I have searched for about an hour now for the answer to my question but I can't find anything that relates to my problem. I am trying to install a converter..."Pocket Converter 1.50" on my TMobil USA HTC HD2. After downloading the cab file into a folder...a screen pops up that says "installation of Pocket Converter 1.50 was unsuccessful". OK...I then tryed one called "MSS Converter 1.08. Same thing happened with it too. I have successfully installed other apps so I was wondering what might be the problem.
I have had the same issue a couple of times. I think sometimes the download gets corrupted. I just redownload and usually the app will install.
Thanks for replying......I've downloaded these 2 apps numerous times and on different days but still no luck. Do you think I could download them to my computer then copy them over to the phone and install?
That may be a good idea, other than that maybe try and download from another source. I think also some apps have issues with the hd2.
signman, do you have links to the exact cabs you tried, so I can test them on mine?
What kind of converter program are those? If they're for converting units of measurement, I use the uConvert app which works great on the HD2, and was developed by an xda member...I've attached the cab here for you to try if that's what you're looking for.
i used to have this happen to me all the time when i downloaded the cab directly from my hd2. Try using a pc to download it then transfer via usb and install. Hope it works!

Sorry for taking so long to post back...as I couldn't find my post!
The links to the apps I am trying to download are as follows...
Well since I'm a new user....I can't post the links..I got them from freewarepocketpc.net
I finally got the MSS Converter downloaded and installed from another website. Can't remember where I got it. I'm going to try to get your posted cab directly to my phone and try that one. Well that didn't work. Installation says it was unsuccessful. Maybe I have to do it like jfmckenna has suggested. Thanks for helping me out guys...I really appreciate it.

If all these installs are failing, I'm guessing you're either missing the NetCF 3.5, or the sdkcerts cab, both are attached below. These are necessary to run many of the apps/cabs you'll find here and at other sites like freewarepocketpc.net. Just put the cabs on your SD card (I recommend just putting all the ones you install in a folder there for easy reference later), and run each one, then you'll probably be able to install the stuff that was giving you issues.
cab files
I've downloaded the cab files you posted but the NetCFv35 says I have to first remove the older version. How do I remove the older version? I know nothing about Windows Mobil...sorry.

Right...I forgot that it was already loaded on the stock ROM, you can skip that signman.
m'lord, I would suggest installing the sdkcerts...it will probably be necessary for you at some point if you're installing any homebuilt apps. I suspect that most custom ROM's would have it built in.

Flash Lite
Sirphunkee. I managed to get your uConvert installed but it is trying to install Flash Lite. That install does not work...I get a "error installing Flash Lite". Is there anything else I can do? I downloaded Flash Lite to my computer and copied it to my phone. Still won't work.
I used a Flash Lite cab file posted on the forum for my fix. Thanks everybody for your help.

Ok good, I'm glad you got it working (I'd forgotten it wants flash light installed to get it to work). Does uConvert cover everything you need then?

[Q] Certificate problems

Hi..
Tried the latest Android Froyo build on my phone with some interesting results.
I downloaded Froyo, copied the Android folder to my SD card, hit CLRCAD and then Haret. Froyo started booting, but after 4-5 lines all stopped. There was nothing happening after 15-20 min, so i pulled the battery, and started the phone again.
Now i get the message (in Norwegian)
"The file <filename> cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of it's components cannot be found. If the problem persists try reinstalling or restorig the file"
The problem is that none of the programs installed on the SD-card runs. They all get the above error.
I can not install any programs (reg editors) because i again get the above message. My registry editor that is already installed wont work, and i can not install anything.
I have tried Googling the problem and i've also searched the forums here in XDA. But i have not found anything that actually might work, because they all wants to install something. I can not install anything, and all of my 3'rd party apps doesn't work.
How do i disable the certificate verification without having to install anything or run any 3'rd part apps??
Is there maybe any program that i can run from my Win7 computer??
Thanks for all informing answers..
Certificate problem?
Exactly the same thing happens to me. Bump!
I'm also having this problem, seems to affect .exe files regardless of whether they are on the SD Card or on the device itself. Same cause as well.
2 reasons may be:
Either you run a stock rom and you need to install certinstaller search here on xda or run a custom rom
Or the sdcard is corrupt so you have to reformat
When you post issues pls give details as well like what hspl, rom, radio you use so people could help you out

Hmm, yeah, it's a stock ROM (for now). I cant't install anything so the certinstaller can't help me.... Now i have to find out how to run a custom ROM.
I have also reformatted the SD-cart with no luck.
My (for now) stock phone:
Manila: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.66.409.1 (76641) NOR
Radio: 2.06.51.07
Using a custom ROM as a base for Android will heed much better results.
Full instructions for flashing a custom ROM are found here (and here for TMOUS HD2).
^^^ Also I notice you have an old radio (2.06). I'm quite sure you need a 2.10 or 2.12 radio for Android...most people seem to have had the best results from 2.12. You will learn how to do that in the link above I just gave you.
As well, there are programs that allow you to edit the registry while connected via activesync that don't require installing anything on the phone.
Case closed
Well, it seemed like a good time to reset the phone now...
While having this problem, i upgraded the SPL with no problem.
Downloaded the newest Dutty-rom, and tried to upgrade, but because no 3'rd part progs will run, this didn't work. I had to hard reset the phone, and then upgrade the ROM and then the Radio.
Everything seems OK so far...
Thanks for all replies
any luck? i m having the same problem
