[Q] Magic - Fastboot: FAILED (remote: not allowed) - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hi there,
I'd like to update to a newer Android Version. So as I read I have to flash a new recovery first. I tried to create a gold card in order to flash this new recovery but I still get an error when I use fastboot.
I read several tutorials and threads in this forum but i couldn't find the right answer. I hope someone can help me.
Is there a problem with a "ScanDisk" gold card...?
Error in Fastboot (sudo ./fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H.img):
sending 'recovery' (4520 KB)... FAILED (remote: not allow)

You said you have a Goldcard already, right?
Also, only do this if your Magic is a 32B. If it's a 32A, you're bricked for life (and I'm not responsible). It says on the fastboot screen which you are.
If it is a 32B, get the first download from the NBH/ZIP section of this thread <a href=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548218>here</a> (Make sure to read the warnings at the top) and put it on your normal SD card.
Then, boot into HBOOT mode by either
1. Booting into Fastboot mode and pushing volume down.
2. Booting phone with volume down pressed.
It should find the sappimg after a minute. If not, make sure the sappimg is on the SD card not in any folders and also that it's named SAPPIMG.zip.
Choose yes to all the questions. If it has an error, reboot and try again or try it on a Goldcard.
Now fastboot should work and you can do whatever.

1.33.0013 is perfected SPL, remote commands are disabled in this hboot.
If you have custom recovery (AmonRa or Clockworkmod), then you are lucky.
If not, then you must install official ROM: 3.12.531.1 T-Mobile USA FRG83D
http://www.4shared.com/file/j64ygA9t/RUU_Sapphire_T-Mobile_US_31253.html
After that, you can root phone with SuperOneClick, then install custom recovery, and custom rom (via custom recovery)

I already rooted using superone click but my phone wont boot after I tried to flash a rom how do I get it to boot up and work again I'm freaking out oh an I have clockwork recorvery image that's how I tried to flash the rom but i dont have a goldcard can i still use the same method can u give me a walk through or is there a way using clockwork mod

If you have custom recovery - just flash custom rom via it.
P.s. but choose appropriate rom (with tags 32b)

Help: Flashed a bad radio and bricked my phone

SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP50000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-2.22.23.02
I flashed the 2.22.23.02 through fastboot by mistake and now I can't get into recovery mode, or flash any other radios onto the phone. The fastboot menu is the only thing I can get to on the phone.
I tried reflashing the 2.22.23.02 again but it won't go through...
Anyone have any ideas on what I can do to unbrick it?
Edit: Tried sappimg.nbh via volume down and power button but i get a Model ID error. Now i can't fastboot anything over to my phone.
Edit: Flashed the sappimg.nbh, sappimg 2.16.707.3, sappimg 2.53.707.2, via gold card but I now get the error: Main Version is older!
I have answered similar questions before...
Use the search function.
But to get you started here is a quick solution.
1) flash eng spl that starts with 1.33.20XX where XX can be 05,09 or 10.
Restart into fastboot.
2) flash the right spl/radio/recovery combo.
This is confirmed to work....
Next time post ALL fastboot info... there are some info mission in your post!
all the fastboot info...

I have just tried flashing hboot-1.33.2010 via fastboot.
However, I get the error message:
sending 'hboot' (512 KB)... FAILED (remote: not allow)
do this:
----- If you boot into fastboot and have issues with "fastboot:remote not allow", then your SPL won't work. Upgrade to Engineering SPL before continuing.
----- If you do not have an Engineering SPL, download 1.33.2010 and flash through recovery before starting this procedure. Flash the SPL update.zip like any other update.zip file.
in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605239
Unfortunately... I can't boot into recovery either, nor can i push a recovery image to the phone. I get the same error: "fastboot:remote not allow".
ok... you are very limited...
Do this:
Find a suitable sappimg.nbh... Not sappimg.zip...
Use this which i just uploaded for you:
http://rapidshare.com/files/421772202/SAPPIMG.nbh
Using your goldcard flash the sappimg.nbh in fastboot.
The sappimg.nbh does not need any unzipping... it's a complete img of the nand and overwrites everything.
I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere....
is there a way to create a goldcard at this point for me?
I can't get into debug mode on the phone (for obvious reasons) and therefore can't do adb....
Find ANY android device and make a goldcard...
Then use the goldcard on your device...
wouldn't suppose anyone have the goldcard.img from their email that they could send me...
1)Download the -G magic RA recovery
2) rename it to recoveryG.img
3) run 'fastboot boot recoveryG.img' (with the phone in fastboot mode)
4) allow recovery to boot then run the following adb commands
Code:
adb push recoveryG.img /tmp/recoveryG.img
adb flash_image recovery /tmp/recoveryG.img
5) Now power down the phone
6) boot into recovery by holding home+power
10) flash 1.33.2009 or 1.33.2010
Now you will have fastboot again
Most likely you will want to find and flash via fastboot radio 3.22.20.17 if you are not a Rogers/Fido customer or have signed the e911 wavier, otherwise you want 3.22.26.17..
After flashing the 3.x radio flash RA -h recovery via fastboot (and while in fastboot run 'fastboot erase system -w'); this will let you flash the ebi1 rom of choice
I just downloaded the recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
renamed it so recoveryG.img.
When i try to run the command: fastboot boot recoveryG.img
I get the error message:
downloading 'boot.img'...FAILED (remote: not allow)
Then its best to just install the official e911 ruu from rogers and re-root
I have tried that, but it doesn't work...

Yes, I'm also not sure why people are ignoring that fact that you can't use fastboot either :-S
My bad, using my phone and completely missed the first page.
EDIT: I think mum was on the right track. Your going to need a goldcard. No one will be able to send you their .img because its SD card specific. You don't know anyone with a Android based phone?

Looks like i'm getting progress....?
I have a gold card now thanks to my friend, however...
when I try to flash the SAPPIMG.nbh I get a Main Version is older!
I also tried the 2.53.707.2 SAPPIMG.zip and I still get this error.
I also just tried 2.16.707.3 SAPPIMG.zip and I still get this error.
YOU ARE STILL MAKING THE GOLDCARD THE WRONG WAY...
You should not get that error msg...
Try to remake the goldcard.
Did it on two different SD cards, the same way I did it before to get my phone off perfected SPL... not sure what I could've done to do it wrong this time around.....
a mmc CID can't change right?

my phone is...
HTC magic 32a s-on
hboot 1.76.0007
radio 6.35.07.29
its because of the perfected spl right?
From what I can see,with my limited experience, either you left out a part after "s-on", or your phone thinks its neither HTC nor google.
It should say S-ON H
And I dont think that 0007 is perfected.
But I'm a noob and would wait for mumilover to respond...

I don't believe that rom-manager has the power to **** up your fastboot.
Recovery and system, maybe - but not fastboot.
When you hold back-button and power-button together what do you see?
Write it down here or take a picture or what ever...
Can you see fastboot?
If you can't see anything beside flash screen then i can't help you!

Similar Issue
Hey Guys and Girls,
This is my first time posting on this site. I have run into a similar issue and have attempted to post on numerous sites without having any luck solving the problem.
The quick version: I ran z4root to root my phone; it said successful. I then installed Rom Manager and switched my recovery to Clockwork (the most recent one). Next I downloaded the latest CM6 from the Rom Manager with GApps. After having unsuccessful attempts at backing up and wiping first, I decided to try installing the Rom without backing up or wiping data. The Rom install worked this time (I got installation successful). However, when the phone rebooted itself, it never got past the Rogers screen. It is now in a constant state of rebooting until I pull the battery.
I can get to fastboot, but cannot get to the recovery screen. My HTC Magic 32A specs from the fastboot menu are:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H
HBOOT-1.76.0010 (SAP50000)
CPLD-12
RADIO-6.35.16.19
Some other info that may help:
-my PC recognizes my phone (I have been trying the Radio Switcher v.GUI 4.1 and it says the phone is connected) but it is not allowing me to flash anything.
-When I try "adb devices" it gives error: no device attached but "fastboot devices" gives me a number.
-I have tried putting "recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0H" on my sdcard, but the HBoot says no image or wrong image
-The Radio Switcher v.GUI 4.1 says my phone is not rooted
-I tried the goldcard method of rooting, but because I can't get the phone to recognize the sdcard, I can't get a proper CID for the goldcard creator
Hopefully I've provided enough info to get some help. I am waiting patiently, but am starting to get sick of the old Sony Ericsson Anything helps!

You have to make a goldcard... if you can't make it using your device, then do it using any other android device.
When you have made the goldcard come back here, and i'll guide through the rest :0)
Done. I made a gold card previously...hopefully it still works. Once it's made into a goldcard, is it always a goldcard?
Actually... re-checking your info - you don't need a goldcard..
No need for sdcard either...
Download this sappimg.zip :
http://rapidshare.com/files/437924840/sappimg.zip
Then run this command from a command prompt:
Code:
fastboot flash zip sappimg.zip
Make sure that the sappimg.img is in the same folder as fastboot.exe
The sappimg.zip is the newest rogers update... the same version as you currently have...
No need for goldcard or anything :0)
if you get any troubles, then post here the outcome of the command prompt..
When all is done, you should be back on stock 2.1...
From there you follow my guide (check my signature) to root and get custom recovery.
Good luck
hi guys,

When I try "adb devices" it gives error: no device attached but fastboot command works fine.
i have my first goldcard.
this forum is my last hope... if anyone know how to proced, help me pls
I had the same problem as a few of you and after trying everything I eventually decided to try installing SAPPIMG.zip from hboot and it worked fine. Took me a while to find the correct SAPPIMG but you should be able to find it on the forums here. You have to put the SAPPIMG.zip on the root of your SD card from your computer, put it in the phone, boot into fastboot and go into hboot and it'll load the SAPPIMG file. If you have the wrong SAPPIMG it'll usually give you an error when trying to install it'll say someting like update failed or wrong device ID. It took me about 4-5 different SAPPIMG to find the correct one for my phone.

Hmm... try this:

The above will set the device into RUU mode.
Then download the official rogers RUU..
Run it and it should install just fine... no need for goldcard or sdcard..
I hope this will work.

Hey,
I just wanted to say I appreciate all the time you are putting in to helping me. I just did the RUU install, but once it gets to the updating signature part I get:

Which direction do I go for flashing?

I am sorry for making multiple threads, I am so lost, I was asking the wrong questions.

Well... you can flash the 1.33.2010 eng spl to do some stuff. But if you want a fully functional device, you have to flash the 0013 or 0013d spl as tvall stated.

So I just download 0013 or 0013d spl and just flash it in recovery correct?
Then I will have a better recovery, thus making it easier to install radios, and maybe even Rom's?
no.... you must need an eng spl... the 1.33.2010 or something.
The 0013 and 0013d radios are almost exactly the same. to flash roms download rom manager from the market. Them use that to get clockworkmod recovery. You flash roms from that

Here are my questions now:
Can I install Radio with Rom Manager?
Can I install SPL with Rom Manager?
If not, I read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605239. How do I do a full backup with nandroid or w/e it is.
As I think I know what it means, this is what I did:
I installed that app 'Rom Manager, then installed clockword' but when I did it the first time I clicked the 32B one on accident first, so I redid it with 32a one. It gave me the option of the 2. Now when I tried to make a backup with the app, it would restart, and just sit at the mytouhc screen =( I messed up? The phone still works, I just had to pull battery.
I even tried using RA 1.7 from the ROM manager and it still sits at green screen if I boot in recovery =/
Sigh, so I tried bypassing Rom manager by just using SDK/ADB to install the recovery I wanted...
I try getting into fastboot from my pc, and it says the phone isn't connected. I tried reinstalling the usb drivers MULTIPLE times. I have windows xp, when I go to fastboot it asks to install a separate driver than when the phone is booted up.
The driver is called: #USB\VID\0BB4&PID_0FFF.DeviceDescRelease%. It will install this but it doesn't do jack
If you need fastboot flash an eng spl temporarily. But you need a recovery to do that.. You might be able to do it in adb... Look at the stickies.

Can you give me a link to the two files I should use? I am sorry for being bothersome, but I just know I will eff up if I search the files on my own =/
You could try installing a recovery from terminal on your device. Get a terminal emulator from the market and then follow the directions in Amon_ra's recovery post. That way you wouldn't need to change spl or use rom manager. Hope that helps.
Tried this, got passed SU, but it says this:
flash_image: not found after typing flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire.v1.7.0H
Copy recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img to the root of your sdcard
start the terminal app
su(press enter)
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire.v1.7.0H(press enter)
reboot recovery(press enter)
The file you copied to your sd and what you type into the term should be the same. If you have "passion" on your sd card and type in "sapphire" in the term that's the problem. The sapphire recovery is the one you want for your device.
Actually I renamed the file to recovery.img to make it easy to type in. is that a problem?
Sigh I wish I could just figure out why when I put the phone into fastboot mode, then hook the phone to the PC that the PC will not see the phone when I type adb devices... wtf?
When I went through SDK and installed google usb driver rev 4 it seemed to download, but its not showing up in my directory folder... I am so aggravated atm

If I understand it correctly you need and engineering spl to use most fastboot functions that's why I suggested the term install of recovery. What you type into the term has to be what the file is called on your sd so if you changed the name, you type in what you changed the name to.
i.e. #flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img but the recovery you should be installing is the sapphire one NOT the passion one.
Sir I have been doing what you are suggesting right now. It consistently says not found for the emulator, or if I do it via fastboot. Just says remote: not allow.
I put a sappimg.zip file into my sd card and when into fastboot mode. I am currently waiting for it to load which I got the ZIP from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547133: it seems after you do this the fastboot will work?
Though I have no idea what this sappimg.zip is doing atm, I have been getting antsy, so I probably just ****ed my phone... What evs we shall see when this thing finishes updating.
I am worried now. Its taking hella long to boot up my device... god I wish I wasn't so impatient, I probably just effed my phone by doing that sappimg

I put a sappimg.zip file into my sd card and when into fastboot mode. I am currently waiting for it to load which I got the ZIP from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547133: it seems after you do this the fastboot will work?
Though I have no idea what this sappimg.zip is doing atm, I have been getting antsy, so I probably just ****ed my phone... What evs we shall see when this thing finishes updating.
I am worried now. lol

that guide says its for the original mytouch 3g. if i remember correctly you have the 1.2.. theres a huge risk of bricking your phone now
Well my phone isn't bricked, but the touch screen doesn't work =/
This is where I got the idea:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548218 so I searched sappimg.zip
Then I got that other link so I just downloaded that sappimg.zip, what sappimg.zip should I be using?
lol I ****ed myself over so bad...
Here is where my phone is atm.. it boots up no idea what the rom is, but it tells me the info:

Radio 3.22.20.17
kernal

Not a clue how to fix what I just did to myself =/
Try and get back to stock. There is a sappimg.zip somewhere that I used once. I'll find a link.
Or try and use fastboot. If it works then you can flash the correct spl, radio, and custom recovery. Ill get you some links when I get on the computer next

if you have fastboot working then follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
it will get you to a custom recovery and the spl and radio i recommend using.
if you still dont have fastboot then flash the spl from here

Mytouch 3g accidently flashed using wrong tutorial

I have read through for or so hours of everything I can find. I have a MT3G 3.5mm and thought I was following the proper steps to be able to flash ginger yoshi so I started to update.
I had this:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT 1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13
RADIO 2.22.23.024
Now I have:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT 1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13
RADIO 6.35.08.29
I have a sappimg.zip that is actually trying to flash except it starts to hang when it updates the radio. It will sit there for forever. I have left it going and the battery will die before it will finish updating the radio. I have been at this for quite a while now and really need help. I know I am supposed to be able to find a matching radio and spl. I tried flashing just the eng spl first, doesn't really do anything it just goes back to hboot. I have tried using fast boot and because it s-on it says no remote. I have tried going into the RUU usb mode and tried booting a recovery but it just sits there. It says it's booting but nothing happens. I did flash a recovery but that was with a 2.22 radio so I am guessing that the new radio that shouldn't be on there is messing it up. What else can i do here? I really need help!

This is what I get when I try the first step. However, my situation is even more screwed. I am stuck at the RUU screen so all i have now is access via usb fastboot and fastboot commander. I can't get access through android commander. I have been trying to flash everything under the sun and when I do flash the proper sappimg.zip it just hangs when updating the radio and it hangs at like 97 percent and will not go any further no matter how long it's there.
To sum up. Followed this tutorial before and that's how I got here in the first place, because I thought I was following the right instructions to be able to get ginger yoshi but it turns out, my phone isn't what I thought it was.
Did you create goldcard properly?

HAAAAAAAA! SCREW ALL THAT .
I have the Mytouch 3G 1.2 (3.5mm Headphone jack) .
it was running android 2.2.1 and i used SuperoneClick root, then downloaded Rom Manager changed my Recovery and flashed ezGingerbread .
SIMPLE!
That's great and all but I would like help. I do not care about how awesome you are. I was unable to do superoneclick for some reason when I downgraded to 1.6. Nothing would work right. Rom manager would force close, universal androot would say that the phone was rooted and superoneclick would say that it wasn't.
Stuck in Ruu can't flash anything. Gets stuck on radio flash. Help. Accidentally flashed 32b board and chip files.
I did create a goldcard properly because i've used it over and over again without fail. It just hangs when flashing and doesn't finish flashing the radio.

Did you ever read tutorial?
The steps to follow:
1) Read and understand the above.
2) Rename special_sappimg.zip to sappimg.zip
3) Make sure that you have a working goldcard and flash the sappimg.zip
The device should reboot by it's self. If you get any error saying model id is no correct, you have a faulty goldcard. Also, please verify that the spl has changed to 1.76.xxxx. (flash by holding volume decrease (-) together with power and wait for the hboot to automatically pick up the file)
4) Once the device has rebooted, you should rename the 2.53.707.2_-_sappimg.zip to sappimg.zip and flash it using the goldcard. This image should give you an eng spl. If you device will not accept it/or you wish to have stock image, then rename the stock sappimg(2.10.531.4) to sappimg.zip and flash it the same way as the special sappimg.
5) If you indeed get the eng spl, then you have full control and we can do almost anything we want. Just post here and we can take it from there. The eng spl has the following nr: 1.33.2010.
If you flashed the stock sappimg, then you only need to root and flash custom recovery and you should almost be there... also here post the progress and we will take it from there.
After item 2 you must flash in hboot-mode (Turn off, then turn on by pressing VolumeDown + Power)
Please read always carefully, try to understand process and don't rush...
I cannot follow those steps to the T. I am stuck in RUU mode on my phone. So I cannot get back to the Hboot. I have been trying to flash everything with fastboot commander. I have a working gold card, just can't get back to where i can access it via phone. When I did have it working though, it was giving the same problem. It would just hang when trying to update the radio.
I have read and understood this particular tutorial. Infact it was the first I found after this particular problem started to occur. However, when I renamed and tried the files it would give the same error with the gold card. I have even, formatted and redone the gold card, which has always worked. Now I am stuck in Ruu and I do not think i can get access back to the bootloader.
Turn phone off (Remove battery, wait 2-3 minutes, place it back)
Turn on by pressing and holding Volumedown + power
What happening in this moment?

It goes straight to Ruu mode, no matter what i press or what buttons I hold down or no matter how long I leave the battery out.

Try to run (it should escape from ruu-mode)
Code:
fastboot oem boot
Then turn off (cause phone is bootlooping) and load into hboot-mode
i got a bunch of text in the command prompt when I tried to run it that made it look like it was going to do it, then it just hung and did nothing.
Still in Ruu mode.
Once you are stock in ruu mode, you kinda fu*ked.
You need hboot and goldcard to fix the problem.
There is a command called: fastboot oem resetRUUflag
Try it out, but most likely it is not permitted...

i have the same problem with this. STUCK IN RUU MODE!!!!
BUT I can open my phone via "fastboot oem boot". The only problem is whenever my phone has been turned off, it STUCKED in RUU MODE, so I need to go through "fastboot oem boot" again just to open my phone.

Goldcard will only help if your error is related to the CID. If you have a branded phone (Rogers, for example) and you want to flash a ROM that is only meant for a different carrier (Vodafone, for example), the goldcard overrides the CID check and continues the process.
A checksum error could mean that the file has been altered.
Could you tell us exactly what information you see on your phone's FASTBOOT page? Model, HBOOT version, RADIO, S-ON/S-OFF, etc.
Thanks.

Okay, there at two issues to deal with first. You have a perfected SPL, 1.33.0014, and you are S-ON. The perfected SPL means that fastboot is crippled and won't let you do most things, and S-ON means it will only let you flash signed images.
***
*** This is one way to fix things, but I'm sure someone knows a better way. If someone knows a better way, please post ***
***
The first step is to unlock the bootloader. This will at least let you flash a custom recovery.
Go to HTC Dev and make an account. Once you've logged in, click on "Unlock Bootloader", then the "Get Started" button. You should be able to skip the RUU installation step, but, if you must do it, the file you want is at this link: SAPP10000 hboot 1.33.0014G. Follow the steps, send your ID token, receive the Unlock_code.bin, and flash it.
Once all of that is done, the bootloader should be unlocked (but still S-ON). You should now be able to flash a custom recovery using this guide: RA sapphire recovery. Scroll down to where it says "via fastboot". It says that is requires an ENG spl, but the unlocked bootloader should be enough. The file you want is: recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
If you get into the custom recovery alright, you can try updating to an engineering SPL using a signed zip file. Go to this thread and download "roottools". Open it up and get "hboot_2010_signed.zip". Put it in the root (not in a folder) of an sdcard, put the sdcard into your phone and boot into recovery. Look for an option to install a zip file from your sdcard.
If that doesn't work, try renaming the hboot_2010_signed.zip to SAPPIMG.zip, put it on the sdcard and boot into HBOOT mode (Volume Down + Power). It will scan the sdcard and try to install SAPPIMG.zip.
If all of that goes well, let us know.
1. i already go to htcdev used the 1.33.0014 spl and unlocked it. It says "*** UNLOCKED***"
2. i don't recovery, only fastboot
3. tried goldcard with sandisk and no sucess!

But did you actually try to flash a recovery image from fastboot?
Download this image: AmonRA 1.7.0G Recovery image
Put your phone into fastboot USB
Open a Command Prompt, cd to the recovery-RA-blahblah.img location, then type this:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
Let us know if that works.

Hmmm. Are you able to enter HBOOT mode? Turn the phone completely off (or pull the battery), then hold VOLUME DOWN and POWER until it says HBOOT.
Yes, i can enter hboot and fastboot

Alright. We can try downgrading with the RUU for your phone and a goldcard. Download the RUU exe file, run it, but don't use it to install. While it's open, go into C:\ Users \ Whateveryourusernameis \ AppData (may be hidden) \ Local \ Temp \ then look for the 2 newest folders in Temp. One of them will contain "dotnetinstaller.exe" and another folder. Go into the other folder and you'll find "rom.nbh".
Run: fastboot flash nbh rom.nbh
If it still doesn't work, try it in RUU mode: fastboot oem rebootRUU (and then use fastboot flash nbh rom.nbh)
If THAT doesn't work, put the rom.nbh on the root directory of your goldcard, rename it SAPPIMG.nbh, and boot into HBOOT mode. It should be autodetected.

BTW, if it gives you a "main version is older" error, we can fix that.
as soon i tested all the ways, i'll report to you! BIG THANKS to you! cheers!
Let's catch up: i have an sapphire 32B S-ON G, spl 1.33.0014 unlocked, radio 2.22.19.23
1. when i run RUU i get error "bootloader version"
2. all the things i do with fastboot, receive error "remote: not allow"
2.1 when use fastboot oem rebootRUU and then use fastboot flash nbh rom.nbh, received error "Failed (remote: 43 main version check fail)"
3. using sdcard SAPPIMG.nbh (from RUU):
3.1 Non goldcard: transcend 8GB "Main Version is older!"
3.2 Goldcard: kingston 4GB "Main Version is older!"
---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 PM ----------
is there any tool to edit the edit NBH file and "fool" the phone?
I'll need to buy a 2gb kingston sdcard?
can i flash ruu hboot 1.76.0013 and try all the process?
