[Solution] flash write failed while flashing NAND-ROM - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

i had the Problem when i was flashing a NAND-ROM via DFT that i got this error-messages:
Error Description: send partition data failed
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (802)
Error Description: flash write failed.
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (586)

i thought my NAND-Memory was corrupted and searched this forum and saw, that there are many peolpe having this problem without a solution.
Here is the way it worked for me:
1. i flashed back to WinMo 6.5
2. i flashed a 2.15_50 Radio-ROM (before 2.14_50)
3. if flashed MAGLDR 1.11
after this the error-messages went away and i was able to flash all NAND-ROMs.

I've had that error several times too. I found the issue to be various things.
One time it was related to the HSPL not being correct. Reflashing that part solved the issue on on device. In another instance, the phone wasn't properly communicating with the PC, so rebooting the PC and restarting activsync resolved it on that device.
I don't believe going back to WinMo is necessary, but if it worked for you, cool.
I've flashed and reflashed 3 different devices with various mods looking for the one I like best and I've found patience is the key factor all the way around.
Happy flashing.

Thats not necessary all you have to do is right click on DAF.exe and run as administrator

i always run DAF as admin and if it would have been this easy, there wouldnt be so much people having trouble with it.
i also did the usual things like reboot PC, flashing magldr 1.11/1.12, task29 and so on, but i didnt get rid of this error-messages. Therefore i was thinking that my nand was defective and i wanted to know, if i can flash a WinMo-ROM. After the Winmo-Rom-flashing was no problem i decided to give it a last try and it worked.

Remove your SD card before launching the flash... It solves the problem for me!

Here is a link to the error codes. Your error means you need to go back to SSPL before you can flash that ROM.

You are still using the original SSPL (Soft Second Program Loader) which will only accept official update ROMs.
In order to flash the custom ROMs available here, you will need to flash in a HSPL (Hard Second Program Loader).
I don't know if you are totally new to flashing ROMs or not, since you didn't say and your post indicator said that was your first post here, but I would advise you to be very, very careful. In the early days (last month, actually) a TON of people were bricking their phones because they accidentally downloaded the European ROMs for the 512Leo. Ours is the 1024Leo and only ROMs designed for our phones will work.
The phone I am using is actually a replacement from TMO. I was having issues with the original device I purchased.
How do I use a HSPL or whatever... I am slightly confused but I can catch up quickly...
Thanks.
same thing happened to me, what i did was i restarted the update without disconnecting the phone from the computer, and it worked.

I encountered the same problem and it appeared that my computer was slow in "re-recognizing" the phone. For some reason, it had to reinstall drivers before continuing with the update. After the device was again recognized, I restartde the update (without disconnecting the phone) and it continued without issue.
I had been worried that the phone had become a paperweight when I saw the tricolor screen, but everything has been fine and the upgrade appears to have worked correctly.

Think of HSPL as your BIOS (it isn't, but it may help you to think of it as such). You don't have any control over the options, but you need it to load or install your OS. Installing HSPL is simply a matter of following the directions in the link that I posted last time: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
Once you have HSPL installed, you should be able to "flash" any ROM. Of course, this also allows you to flash ROMs that are not meant for your phone, so that's the danger behind it.
When you visit a thread that offers a ROM, it should either have instructions or a link to instructions on how to install. If it does not, a google search for "xda how to install a custom rom" should give you a million helpful links. (This is actually beyond the scope of this post so I won't go into details)
Hope this helped some...

just for kicks did you try a different ROM, find another ROM that is Compatible and try it, not saying there is anything wrong with Dutty's , but could just be the download , but not sure since you tried stock too ...
You may need to reinstall HSPL3, if you tried to flash a stock rom, and even if it failed it could have removed HSPL ...
Also try plugging the USB cable into the back of the machine
error 260 1024hd2
Hey guys,
I am having the same issue although I may know the answer but not sure how to fix it. Prior to flashing chuckyRom, I installed HSPL but I don't think I installed the correct version (still worked). So does anyone think this entire problem is attributed to initially installing the wrong hard SPL. If so, how can this be fixed? android is running great on chuckyRom but it would be nice to use a rom that is used for more than running android.
Please help, I have been in misery trying to solve this for over two weeks now.

Finally I got it work.
After I started the update the first time, I got the message, driver was not installed successfuly ...blabla
I ignored the message, tried and the connection disconnected every time again.
At the end I used another usb port and it asked me to download the CDMA driver. After download and installation, the update was in 5 min. done

Error [260]

[Solved] How to restore to stock when RUU doesn't work?

Hi!
So.. My HTC Hero GSM has some issues that need to be repaired. Touchscreen not working in the lower part of the screen, constant headset-icon, trackball not working good. So I've contacted my repair center and they told me to send it in. So I want to restore my phone to as close to original as possible to be on the safe side.
The problem is I can't use the official RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver.exe(or any other version), without getting an error 155(apparently it has something to do with the rom not having correct filesize).
It doesn't matter what rom I'm currently using; Modaco, Villain, different kind of generics, but nothing affects the outcome.
I got a feeling it has to do with the recovery image I use(RA 1.6.2) or Hboot version(.0007), but I can't seem to flash a new one. Recovery flasher gives me "Backup FAILED: could not run command.", and since my HBOOT is .0007 I can't use remote command from fastboot to restore original.
1. Is it possible to downgrade HBoot from recovery mode? If so, does anyone have a update.zip I can use?
2. Could error 155 has something to do with the computer/OS im using?
3. Anyone has any other suggestions what I can try to restore?
Currently using:
HTC Hero GSM
Generic 2.73.405.38 (1.5)
Baseband 63.18.55.06OU_6.35.15.01
HBoot 1.76.0007
Any help is greatly appreciated!
/Jakob
Edit: Solved!
For anyone having issues with Error 155(CID-checks fail, perhaps?) or 171(USB fail) while trying to restore a rooted HTC Hero to stock with an official RUU-exe, this is what worked for me where nothing else did:
- Create Goldcard
- Extract ROM.ZIP from the Official RUU exe you want to use. I downloaded it from their main site
- Rename to HEROIMG.zip
- Boot to flashboot mode (Volume down + Power on)
- Flash.
- Reboot and enjoy your new stock HTC Hero.
1. Yes. There is an engineering hboot over at modaco (v2007).
2. No idea. You could just try re-downloading the RUU and doing an md5 check on it, might have been corrupted during download.
3. I forget what 3 was and I can't check cause I'm posting through tapatalk.
Hi!
Thanks for your fast reply.
I successfully flashed Hboot with 2007 and later with 0004, but it didn't make any difference when I tried to run the official RUU. I still get error 155 ("Unknown error").
I have since double, triple and quadruple-checked the download to make sure I've got the right RUU. And since I download it from HTCs official site, in the country where it is bought, it shouldn't be an issue. All the downloads I've made is also the same size..
I guess my last resort will be to try to flash the stock recovery image manually.
Anyone have that one lying around?
Du you have HTC Sync installed? Usb debugging on in the phone? Try flashing the RUU, when in fastboot. (VOLDOWN+ON)
I'm not sure what error 155 is.
HTC Sync installed, enabled on the phone. And the green little icon is green and the phone says connected. Usb debugging is enabled.
I will try starting in fastboot mode brb.
That didn't work either.
Still got error 155 Unknown error.
I also tried to restore my original recovery image in fastboot:
fastboot boot cm-hero-recovery.img

Click to collapse
An this is what it said:
Downloading 'boot.img' ... FAILED (command write failed (Unknown Error)

The "unknown error" appears even here. Could it be that my phone is so broken it cant write to that area?
If you have access to recovery
Try;
HTC Generic 2.73.405.5 (update.zip)
http://www.romraid.com/paul/hero/update-hero-generic-2.73.405.5-signed.zip
if that fails try;
Goldcard Method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572683&highlight=gold+card+method
if that fails try;
...... try the first 2 first then post back results. (Might be worth trying on another computer because unknown error 155 sounds like there could be an issue somewhere with the pc. Maybe build an XP vmware?

I did it, and now have a goldcard. Unfortunately I still get error 155. I also tried all this from a different computer than before. This time with win 7, but with no other result.
I guess next step will be to try it from XP. I will setup an virtual pc later and try it, but I have to admit I'm not hopefull... This is getting annoying.
Any other way you guys can think of? And I REALLY appreciate your help, this is driving me mad!

HEROIMG via fastboot maybe?
But isn't that the same as using recovery mode to flash a rom?
As I stated previously I want to get my phone as close to stock as possible(ROM, Radio and recovery). Can this be done with HEROIMG? Am I missing something here?

I do believe... if you use the rom.zip taken from when you launch the RUU (remember to unhide hidden files) this also does radio hboot e.t.c. I did it with the tmobile rom and it did update radio. Rename it to HEROIMG.zip, put it on the root of the sdcard, boot into fastboot and it will find it and flash.
This is the contents of a rom.zip direct from an RUU i did tonight.
@android-info.txt
@boot.img
@hboot_7200A_1.76.0007_090804.nb0

Well done... for a final outcome the error 155 means there is an issue with settings and if you get an error 155 more than likely a new windows setup will need to commence somewhere. (Install XP, Windows 7 et all. Error 171 is a usb driver issue to the phone I do believe.... glad to be of an assistance.
I don't think it has something to do with the OS. I tried the RUU .exe on three different setups; One laptop with Vista, one brand new laptop with Win7 home premium and one virtual PC with XP.
Maybe a "full" setup of XP would work, but I think it's more likely it is something else.
On the other hand, to just remove the OS from the equation solved it, so you might be right.
Oh, and the 171 error only occurred when the driver got messed up one time, so it really hasn't got much to do with my case. But this solution would work for people having that issue as well.

The errors are system related, thus when you use the HEROIMG.zip via fastboot you totally bypass the need for having a PC except to transfer files to the device. So I think it is a driver/OS issue.
EDIT: To the OP, edit your first post and add [SOLVED] to the front.... let users know there is a solution.
I hope you guys can help me, i have a G2 Touch and i'm about to try restore to stock by using SD-Card.
Problem is, when i unpack the RUU.exe (Firmware 2.73.111.26), there's no ROM.zip in it. Only thing i get is a Subfolder with several installation files and a data1.cab sized 104MB, which i can't open (nether with 7zip nor winrar)

Did you start with a custom ROM or a stock ROM? I've heard some people say that starting the process with a stock ROM helps? Not sure why that would matter, but if flashing MAGLDR again doesn't work, try it.
Thanks, i'm using a custom rom with the last drivers ( BSB 7) and i just reinstalled magldr an the problem persist.
I suggested the following to a user this morning who had the same problem and he managed to install. I'm not sure which of the steps are all necessary but give it a try.
1. Turn off your pc Anti Virus.
2. Re-download your NAND rom zip file
3. Remove sd card
4. Run daf.exe as Administrator.
How hard is it to understand that "questions" get asked in the "Q&A" forum and general stuff gets discussed in the "general" forum.
This forum is for "development"
simply install winmo stock rom, and do everything again (installing magldr n rom), it'll work...
Thanks i reinstall all again and well done

How far did you get with the WP7 install? The problem with WP7 is that it formats your sd card and it is not always recognised properly. Try formatting your sd card again.
using the usb flasher tool the progress bar goes nowhere but the partitions are created and the data is starting to transfer (nothing happens to the sd card i can always see it and access it after using an external reader). i get a bad crc error and i assume that crc means cyclic redundancy check so i guess the magldr is assuming that the partition is bad. however i can still use the partitions by flashing a custom winmo rom to nand so i am assuming that either magldr is not able to create the partitions properly. does magldr create the partitions on the sd card? if so then your answer of reformatting the sd card could be valid? ill have to try it. however i assume that winPhone 7 creates the partitions on the sd card so this trying will be in vain.
however i will try reformatting the sd card so i ask which format should i use, fat32 or ntfs
thanks for the help.
its probably worth noting that even trying to flash a rom without the sd card achieves the same errors with magldr1.11 and 1.12 while trying to flash an android rom.
so to use android now i am forced to use the old method of going through win mo to boot android with haret.

Probles Falshing A New ROM

Ok, so I went to flash a new ROM on my phone, and when I go to the run the RUU, I get the screen with the 4 steps to complete, which are already completed, then hit next. Now I get "Error [240] : File Open" and below that it says "The Update Utility cannot open the requested file. Please check the update utility."
I tried downloading the Update Utility again, but it still does the same thing. Ive flashed my phone before, and Im pretty sure Im not doin anything different this time, but its not workin. Am I missing somethin?
Thanks

Check if your harddrive isn't full.
A RUU extract some files, and if your harddrive is full it can't
Nope, its not full. Far from it actually lol.

Its in the tutorial, but I havent tried it yet. Ive never had a problem flashing through the USB before.
Tried it from the SD card. Went great. Just takes a little longer.
Still open to suggestions about usin active sync though.

URGENT MAJOR HELP REQUIRED *PLEASE*:
I am stuck on DFT boot screen (after doing 1234-vol up_down-wp7-reset) and this is *after* (wp7 here !) all the chains b4 that are done: ie: power on, hspl, htc, magldr- for windows phone 7 on hd2. Sometimes get thru to windows phone 7. but generally reboots. Done spl back to stock and leoimg on sd back to stock and tried task28s, 29s, etc but just reboots constantly and randomly.
Any thoughts here? What is warranty process? DO they replace at all with NEW? or new BOARDS/RAM? Gone back to 1.66 spl and sent in for repairs. because - the stupid recommended Romupdateutility HTC stock rom 'upgrade' did this damage. yes, was Windows Phone 7 and activated using dev hack with marketplace & xbox/live. Also - although I activate ok and can use it on market fine once it boots good - still when both my hd7 (hd2) and Mozart are signed into XboxLive using same address at same time: (mozart is legit fully/eula-signed etc) then the hd2 seems to reset a LOT here at this point. maybe this has something to do with usual xbox-live security? ie: http://www.wpcentral.com/hack-xbox-live-windows-phone-7-get-perma-banned-microsoft ?????????? please hlp me - I am fully capable of mtty, sd-leoimg, whatever it takes- but need to know why this would be the case? same with Android roms/stock too. Anyone know about task2a on hd2? how many bad blocks I should have? partition/re-partition droid or wp7 to avoid these bad blocks? I just WISH Cotulla/DFT let you run the windows phone 7 installer in such a way that all bad bloks could be excluded totally as if the never exist... ie make hd2 clean.

note: although I have gone bak to original spl+rom in past I have (both unsuccs &succesfully) have previously done task2a and even spl-mfg install and radios/roms as DEBUG/SPL-MFG. xmoo?

[Q] new HD2 owner with issues! Please help :)

I have a HD2 but the down button is not working.
It has magldr 1.3 installed and the phone is running CM7. The mod version is MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 (v2.6) A2SD+
I really want to install a more up to date rom,a miui rom would be my chosen way.
Ive tried going through the process for one such rom.
I get to the point of running DAF and I get the following error:-
An error has occurred
Read below for more information
Error Description: Config load failed.
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (725)
Error Description: CONFIG: file not exist
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (359)
After this I tried selecting the AD recovery option I get this message in MAGLDR saying "No boot sources"
Ive no idea if cLK is even installed on the phone.
Any help with repairing the down button would be great. Ive seen new housings on ebay and one thread I read suggested this would replace the volume rocker. can anyone confirm this or a way of repairing it would be great.
Im not new to Android but I usually use clockwork mod on my other devices.
This HD2 Android experience is totally new!
I know that using clockwork mod I dont need a down button because I can go straight into recovery from rom manager. I have rom manager on the phone and have installed clockwork mod but what ever I do the phone just goes into MAGLDR.
Ive spent the best part of today trying to sort this out but all ive ended up with is a huge headache.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Welcome to the world of HD2
go to these steps:
- Run Task29 (will delete you phone storage complete (all data will be erase!)).
- Make sure you've got the right radio rom - but i think so
- install MAGLDR or CLK - i would prefer magldr for beginners
- flash Clockwork Mod Recovery
- flash your rom
if you need help with these steps, look in the forum after the HD2 Toolkit or even take a look with my tool (see signature) - its not up2date - but the steps and the tools which im using are )
i hope i can help ya a bit
edit:
oh your down button dont work - bad.. no down button no clockworkmod :/
Hi aagain, I'm glad you started a new thread.
I'd get a magldr user to confirm this before you try it but I think the 'no boot sources' error means cwm isn't present or corrupt. I know magldr users can flash cement via DAF but don't know if you have to do it from trial colour screen, if so your SOL. Try looking into flashing recovery via adb fastboot, I'm sorry I don't have time to research more for you, have a driving lesson in 10 min's
Sent from my HD2 using XDA App
Thanks for your reply.
I tried doing a task 29 wipe but the problem is I need a down button to get the phone in that mode.
Hmm ive never used adb fastboot but is it possible to do everything I need to do with this to get it working this way?
Update:-
I found a past post saying about AD recovery No sources found error and a fix was given where you used to HD2 tookit to do a MAGLDR Repartition.
I tried this and I can now access clockwork mod via MAGLDR.
Ok ive now been able to install the miui rom I wanted.
Many thanks for your help guys
