Ok first off I am really sorry for the stupidity and should have paid more attention. I was flashing the NBH on my Tilt 8925 and I got the wrong one! it was the KAISIMG-PANEL1-428.NBH that I downloaded and now the text is hard to read and it wont install and I cant change it. Right after I did that I found the forum that told you witch one to use. I wanted to cry!!! So what I'm asking is my phone done for? or is there a way to fix this? like through the andboot folder somehow?
Thank you for any help at all!!!
you learn from your mistakes though, I'm sure I wont do that again
Fixed it! :d
After I gave up I remembered someone said to hold the camera and the power button and reset buttons. I did that just to see what it would do and the colored screen came up with usb at the bottom. so I triad the right file and ran it again and it worked! Now I'll have to give it another go!
so this can be deleted now Thanks!
Just for future reference.
If you flash the wrong nbh with android, you should be able to flash the correct one using either the SD method, or the USB method.
Above all, do not panic, panic bricks more devices than bad flashes ever did
Since this is the Android area, I must say we are extremely lucky, since we are able to flash a new nbh without losing anything at all as far as the OS is concerned, your data and system files will remain intact, flashing an android nbh only replaces the zImage and the android bootloader files, unlike WM where you flash the whole OS and lose everything
Android
That's good to know because I thought I lost the phone for good. I didn't have any data on it that I needed, I was trying to install android to nand and just got the wrong NBH.
The only thing now that would keep me with WM 6.5 is cant get the wifi to work right. It connects to the router but the internet cuts out very bad, like it will work for 10 seconds then cant get it to work at all for 20min then it will load a web page then doesn't work again!
I did the same thing to my Tilt. I downloaded the Kaiser for Super Eclair and flashed it and did not not know I did not flashed the HardSPL.nbh.
I finally figured it out and flashed the HardSPL.nbh. It is at 3.29 right now. But I the phone keep getting error after the penguin screen with scrolling text. It said something about unable to read data. How do I fix this problem?

Jesus... the last post is more the 1year old.
I know you must search, but if the last post is that old, the probability that everything in it is outdated, is near 100%.
Well, that is the what I found. I hate digging up old post especially when it's that old.

I got my Cingular 8125 about a week ago, it's been a dream! I LOVE THIS THING!
Tonight I decided to update the ROM. I got it with 1.8 or something really old like that so I thought updating would be a good idea. I went to the HTC site an downloaded the latest ROM (2.25).
As I am a mac user, I fired up the old PC and updated. But before I did, I installed SPB Backup on the 8125 and backed everything up to my miniSD. Update went fine. Worked like a charm. I went to restore my files and thats where it all went to hell!!!
I made the mistake of restoring ALL of my files and settings. It seemed fine when it was done. the 8125 asked for my password, and as I finished typing it in, the 8125 rebooted without notice. The Cingular screen came up, loaded fine. Then the Windows Pocket PC screen came up and then the top bar with icons came up. That was it. Now it just sits there, nothing else loads. I can put it on stand by. But nothing else happens. No today screen, no phone, no signal, nothing.
I tried to connect it back to my PC but ActiveSync cant mount it. I tried the Wizard ROM update installer, but it said that the device couldn't be found. I tried connecting it to my Mac with Missing Sync. It asked for a password, which it has never done before (which seemed promising) but after I typed it in, again, no device was found.
Now the poor thing is just sitting there on my desk
Is there anything I can do to get it up and running again? Is there a way I can get one of my machines to recognize it and wipe it clean so I can start fresh???
Please help! I bought this phone refurbished, so I dont know if I will be able to get it replaced. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Was this device CID unlocked? Did you try going to the bootloader mode (Hold camera down and press reset while holding camera button, rainbow screen should appear) and then flashing it with your desire ROM?
If it still don't work, you might need an SD backup image of a rom. I've been trying to look for one but the only think I found is an image of a dutch language ROM. If I do get one I'll give you a PM.

Hey thanks Clem! I did solve my problem, but now I have a new one. I HATE 2.25!!!
So if you do get your hands on an older ROM, I would be forever greatful!
Thanks for responding!

What operator are you on? All of the recent ROMs do not work on Orange UK. The phone and txt message functionality is broken.
As for not showing the ROM version, this always happens after a crash. Just reset again as soon as you see "NONE".

Before you complain that users cant help you, try helping yourself. You will find that people are more willing to invest their time then!

Wierd, you are the first to come forward to say that it works fine for you. Myself and a couple of other users haven't been able to get reliable telephony for months now. It may be a regional thing, perhaps only in Scotland. I've had replacement phones and I still have problems.
No one seems interested in helping as it's not something that can be easilly tested unless you have the problem yourself.
i was looking for hte downgrade link ill give that a go tomorrow, as tot he person that said i should try helping, how can i help if i dont know anything? we all need to learn and start somewhere. think ill be staying away from here with my spvm600 if thats the attitude this place is takeing.
Hey, it wasn't intended at you, obviously. What I was basically saying was that if you have the same problem, then don't expect a fix as it's a tough one to fix.
could it happen that you are one of those who downloaded the rom which someone had the gall to replace the original one? which rom upgrade did you use?
i cant remmeber what rom it was that i used now as it was about 2 months ago i done it, ive tried the downgrade link that was posted and when i open maupgrade it dosent see any rom on my device or any in the folder and when i click up grade it takes about 10 sconds then says tis done, which is obviously isnt dont, any mroe ideas please people?

use one of the latest (i.e. helmi's or xplode's) and upgrade again. be sure to follow the instructions (including that for device data, and the no/yes/yes input). make sure also you were able to download the whole file (it was a problem for some users).
you might also want to upgrade your radio version (1.15.00).
good luck.
ok, i am totally confused. i had flashed to three different roms since joining this forum. i tried to flash ttrans OTv5.0UL and nothing happens. bootloader comes up, screen goes white, generic pda menu opens and all seems fine. when phone starts back up, all of my original setting are there just like if i only did a soft reset. i tried again with a different rom and the same thing happens. i have tried 4 times and nothing. can someone please let me know what i am doing wrong
when did you buy your wing???
and are you using flashcenter ?? so it can temporary cid unlock the device?
i got my wing in feb or march 08. yes i do have flash center, and i have used it w/o problems before. i have flashed from touch it to open touch and one of aserg's roms too. i have been using OT 4 lite black for weeks now. i have been watching the threads about the new OT 5. so i downloaded it and nothing new is flashing.
does this help any?

Are you using the standard activesync method or via SD?

iwas hoping not to bother any of the main guys with this little problem, but i'm glas your here (love your OT's btw ). ok, i am using the standard activesync method.
heres what i do:
1. download new rom and put it inside my RUU folder on my computer's C drive.
2. run the herald-uspl.exe.
3. follow the prompts
thats all i do and it used to work. i don't know if this helps, but it's the only other thing i have been doing diff. on another thread i asked if it was ok to delete old roms out of my RUU folder. i actually removed my OT v4 lite black and then put the OT v5 UL and ran the uspl. do you think thats what it is? maybe you have to have your old version in the RUU before you flash to a new version?
hope this helps
No. You don't have to have anything but your newest ROM in the RUU folder. When flashing, the phone doesn't know or care what you currently have flashed, unless that ROM is causing problems with your active sync. If that's the case, place your phone into bootloader mode, install the stock ROM (unless you have a HardSPL phone, and it sounds like you don't since you're using USPL.) Then boot up the ROM and run the USPL.
ok, so now know what to do, but why did this happen? whats wrong with the herald-uspl?
i just checked my device info and it says im running open touch v3! i thought that i was using v4. i have hard-spl downloaded, but i dont know if i need to use it or not. should it? then try to flash?
Unlock your phone with hars spl then run the exe from ruu folder. This method worked for me. I did not try the other way since my phone is unlocked but it should work aswell.

I'm sure you already did this, but I'll throw it out there. Did you leave the original .nbh file in the ruu folder? I don't think you can have more than one .nbh file in that directory.

OT-5UL looks great all around. this is my first time with ultimatelaunch, so thats cool too. i haven't been able to go thru the posts for some of the fix issues. the only thing i'm a bit bummed about is the amount of memory left after the flash (program-20) i'll keep playing with it. hey thanks again for the fix

Yeah man, no problem. I finally decided to hard spl, and tried out 5.0 and 4.0 and I think I like 3.0 the best. 5.0 seemed kinda buggy.

i'm too scared to hardspl. i have the download, but not the nuts to try it. whats the hype about it anyway? it seems like some sort of badge for people in here. not you, but you know what i mean?
i'm gonna let the pro's go as far as they can with the OT V5 UL version and then probably go back to v4. gonna miss the UL (damn).

The HardSPL makes it so that if you flash a bad flash, you don't have to flash into the Stock RUU again just to get a working activesync connection to be able to flash again.
Courtesy of Ivanmmj
Step 1. Download Herald-USPL-Beta3. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=A4N36HLO
Step 2. UnZIP the file into a folder on your Desktop. Let's call it "MyFirstROM" for simplicity's sake. Notice that there is a folder called RUU within this folder now. Keep that in mind.
Step 3. Download your NBH file and unZIP or unRAR it into that RUU folder. Make sure that that NBH file ends up in the RUU folder, not within a folder inside the RUU folder.
Step 4. Place your phone into flightmode.
Step 5. Go back to the MyFirstROM folder and then run USPL.exe
Step 6. Follow the directions on the screen. EXACTLY.
* Your screen on your cell phone will go white around the 75% part of the "second step" now.
* ActiveSync will LOOSE its connection.
Step 7. One step 3 on that black window, the RUU flasher will pop up. Just follow the steps.

Hey, I was scared for a LONG time to do it...I read so much info before I finally decided to do it! It took me like 2 weeks of reading before I decided. It's an EXTREMELY simple process. Plus, it makes flashing easier. I was getting weird errors trying the USPL method sometimes. Anyway, just do this.
FIRST, make sure your IPL number is atleast 4.000 or higher. You can check this by holding the camera button down, and then doing a soft reset. HOld the camera button down till you enter the bootloader menu. (It's like 3 gradient colors).
If it's higher, great, you are ready to proceed.
Next, download this file.
http://rapidshare.de/files/38148213/...l_WM6.rar.html
Unzip it, and it will contain 3 .cab files you need to install in a certain order.
1. Install canonyang.cab
2. Next, aserpolicy.cab
3. disablesecurity.cab.
Do a soft reset.
Put phone in flight mode!!!!
Now, go to the folder you just unzipped that file from. I think the default folder will be called hard-splwm6 or something like that. Go and run the RUU.exe file in it. Just follow the instructions. The screen of your phone will go white, but just wait, wait, and it will reboot itself.
Presto, you are hard spl, and can load whatever rom you wish!
Hello all,
first, a big thanks to all the rom developers around. You transformed my Diamond in a usable and enjoyable tool.
What happened to me tonight is very frightening. In fact, I cannot believe what happened.
And this is the story: I was at a birthday party and later in the evening I checked my phone : it seemed to have frozen, so I rebooted it as I do sometimes when I have no other choice. But this time something strange happened : I got the following message "this concludes the beta test of this software release. thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers" - what the ... ? No way to make a call, the message is impossible to remove... completely blocked !!!
I don't remember exactly the rom I flashed last because I sometimes change. It might be a dutty's release (75%M sure) - anyway I was in a very bad situation because my wife wasn't feeling well and I couldn't call her without finally borrowing a phone from someone.
I will flash a new rom tomorrow and I hope that the message will disappear but I can tell you that it is a very strange feeling when suddenly your phone refuses to operate normally. It's a nightmare.
I hope that someone has an explanation for this because I don't want to go trough this situation ever again, it's just so annoying to have a phone which tells you "No you can't use me; your trial period has expired" when you need it he most.
Thank you for your opinions in advance
Have you tried a hard reset?
Yep same problem here.
Using duttys 1.93 - Can't get to his website either.
Hard rest does not work - had to reflash back to branded (Telstra) ROM
i'm having the exact problem right now, what can i do to fix this? someone told me to reflash it but how? i'm VERY new to the diamond
hardreset does not work
I bought the phone from a person so it's second hand. The seller did mention he updated the ROM, I'm assuming this is the cause of the problem? help please
thanks!
I am getting the exact same problem.I do not know what to do.
Sigh and since my computer will not sync, I cannot reflash it. Hard set is also a no go.
ya I cant sync it with my computer either... i'm searching other sections on this forum and I cant seem to find one that teaches you how to flash without syncing with the computer
OK i got it well kinda sorta. If you hard reset and just use the date taht dutty had then your phone will load. Do not correct the date and you should also change the date on your computer so that it wont sync. Then donwload his new rom or whatever rom you prefer and then flash it. Then change the dates back. It worked for me.
thanks.. do you have the link for the new rom?
I'm going to give it a try
The link it dutt'y new rom is here http://rapidshare.com/files/162091111/Ruu_Signed_duttys_diamond__V2.9_5_2_20275_RTM_Full_MSVC.zip
just a question how do you flash it?
can you help me? i'm very new to this phone
I had the same problem last night- expired beta software. If I do a hard reset I believe I will loose all the info on the phone, is that correct?
I was thinking that changing the date will work, is there another way to change the date without having to loose the info?
Someone has a reliable link to an instruction on how to flash the ROM?
I am also using throy 2.3, to find the latest release please go to WWW.DUTTYTHROY.NET
Any help appreciated.
!everyone! you can flash roms from bootloader. hold volume down and the little red reset button, keep holding vol down untill bootloader. at the tri color screen, run ruu from host pc. everything will be fine with this method. just like activesync.
ok i to change the time and stuff and it actually can sync using active sync.. however.. when tried to install HSPL 1.24 after the part where the phone will turn black.. i click on the DiamondCustomRUU as instructed
but it says this "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). CLick on OK to terminate the application"
Is there a way I can recover this without losing all that is on my phone?
Do anybody know the password for the latest ROM 2.9 from Dutty? His page is unavailable right now....
Duttys V2.9 RTM Finale
someone please tell me how to flash.. from scratch? i hard reset my phone.. and i cant get HSPL to work. When i install the activesync way, the black screen turns on then i cant open DiamondCustomRUU
if i do i the bootloader way, when i connect from the three colour screen it cant pick up the phone because it says i'm missing Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM
please help been stuck for hours already
i won't flash Duttys ROM again!!! Right now i need my phone and it doesn't work! And if i reflash it i lose my data....
never again!
its you have a problem with duttys rom
you need to use his thread to point out your problems....
not this one.
Why hello there.
Thought I'd start with a nice little greeting, if you're reading this hopefully you're looking forward to a nice little task. My G1 is entered paper-weight mode rather than my fast boot setting and it's starting to get rather redundant so this is my last resort. There's the premises of my problem here's a little more detailed one for ya.
So I have a launch G1 with Cyanogen's latest 4.2.4 rom installed with the latest radio & any of the other necessary things flashes, etc. I'm honestly pretty good with these kinds of things through actual knowledge from here for just trial and error but this is something I haven't had to deal with for a LONG time. The infernal pause screen of G1 death. It won't leave the "T-Mobile G1" boot image after being flashed / wiped / all around cleaned up. I'm curious if it may just be the G1 or maybe something else caused a corrupted image for some odd reason.
Prior to getting this to happen, my keyboard wouldn't type correctly. The space bar would result in some random key being pressed and in essence, my phone typing by itself. So either my phone's possessed or.... something far worse. If you happen to know what exactly that is, please help me out! I'm open to suggestions, I've tried other builds and I'm about to just grab some old roms and see if maybe this works. If you have tips or need to know any more information please, just ask.
Thanks! Adderall will make this much easier I just need some ideas
-chatty chatt mic-chat chat.
Boom.
The fact that your keyboard was messing up is ominous. Are fastboot and recovery working ok? Can you post a startup log?
I would flash the HardSPL
the spl monitor the control input (afaik because people w/ qwertz keyboards said flashing special spl's converted them to qwerty)
before you mess with that though, make sure you followed the install directions for 4.2.4
you dont just flash it as an update.zip if your switching to cyan for the first time.
you need to flash the HTC recovery image first, then flash cyan on top of that
no see i've been around here since the beginning of the G1 mods and such I know what to do with everything it just started going wild. I'll try flashing the hardSPL and see what happens but this is just odd. I'm trying one more time to flash a new rom on my phone with a freshly formatted sd card then we'll see what happens
