error [240] File open.....Please help

Im trying to upgrade my jammin with the latest dopod rom ..Ive got hold of the romupdateutility.exe which bypasses the vendor id but now when i run the .exe it comes up with the error
'ERROR [240] File open'
As anyone got any ideas as to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance

any ideas guys ???
Thanks

You most likely need to copy the nk.nbf file into the same directory as the romupdateutility.exe file.

I am having the same problem with my new mda IV compact i have tried to load the rom in every different way but still the same message comes up, i am trying to change radio settings to the 06 version. i have done the spl load but can't do a flash rom. any ideas please

I have the same problem i have installed HardSPL
But when i try to run the roms KaiserCustomRUU this error pops up
is there a certain program i should be using to run it? or did i save it wrong?

Make sure the phone is in active sync mode. My diamond i had this problem then realized that i had it in disk drive mode. switched it back and i was fine.

hey.. problem solved for me.
Click that "View README" button right next to the llast button you click before you get the error.
Where is that file located on your computer? For me it didnt load, but it said "could not find file at c:\windows\system32\readme.doc".
I took the cue, and moved my *.nbh file into the system32 folder. Voila! It was weird because I was running the ruu.exe file from the desktop (on a vista PC). I guess for some reason it was looking in system32??
So give the above a try. Might work for ya

Hi,

Changing bootscreen (XDA Neo, G4)

Is it possible to change the image which I can se when the device is booting up? I use smart1 WM6 v2!

here are some logos
you just have to run on pc with the usb cable plugged in, and then a soft reset, and everything will be ok...

What boot screen are you looking for? Or do you want to creat your own one?

Yes, I want to use my own! It's an Anime picture like my nickname!

well i had read the forum instructions and for change boot and welcom screen.
but something is wrong with the typho5. its suppose to extract nb 9200000 files but the application starts without extracting nobthing.
i would like to change the welcome screen from the PDAMobiz to some thing personal. i follow instruction but they dont fit the results i get.
any idea?
thanks to all
specially to the guys in PDAMobiz, who made the best of the best Rom

I want too to make a personal bootscreen...if someone can help us with a little tutorial, we are waiting..thx

Try this
The pdf manual in this thread has a section on updating boot screen and all the tools required to do it are included too.
I do not suggest everybody trys to get into the ROM cooking that is also described, but the splash screen section is fairly straitforward
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297027

first, with this tool you can create your own ROM (customized)...and also splash screens...see the manual pdf

welcomehead.96.png
well to make it easy to understand where we stand this is the only file we must change. but there is a problem. the original file is read only and can not be replaced nor rename or moved. not with total comander , not even unlock extended rom. after a small research i found that the file is integrated with in the original ROM not the extended.
so i am looking for a tool to delete/install files into the ROM when present on the device.
it sims that that cannot be done. we must dump the present rom, sort of cook it on our PC than re- install it with changes done.
at the same time since most of us are very happy with the ROM as is , but want to personal it littel bit, its worth a dedicated tool.
i will look into it. if i find a way i will post it here.
thanks for the great job of the PDAMobize last version .
good tool and very stable

You do not need to look into it!!!!
Read the previous two posts and look at the pdf manual in the download - it describes the tools you need to change you images (without cooking a complete rom)
And it doesnt need a hard reset either!

exactly, but i don't think that it will work on qtek s200, because now i saw that is only for wizard...if you made it, let me know...

Worked for me
You do need to use a prophet nvid ruu program though

here you go...
plug your phone in. run this program. then go to tools/immediate flash tools...and you should have a function called splash screen or something like that. point to the desired file. update... restart your phone and it should work. with this prog, you can also extract splash screen from a nbf file.

Hello
Thanks, I have plugged the phone in and ran program but i get "No file loaded, immediate flash not available (Client DLL not found)"
Cheers
Brogusblue

Choose, Test Immediate Flash, on your phone, TyphoonNBFtool.dll will prompt you to give it permission to run , allow it

Hello
I am completely confused, Downloaded the file to pc unzipped and ran program and get "No file loaded, immediate flash not available (Client DLL not found)" and that's how far i get the phone does prompt me. i have had a look on my phone and found the file "TyphoonNBFtool.dll"??
Cheers
Brogusblue

You need to extract the archive to a folder first, then click Test Immediate Flash, then TyphoonNBFtool.dll will prompt you to allow access

Cook your splash screen

Btw, this is where I got the ability to cook my splash screen on my ROMs. You know the first bootscreen.
Here.
I don't speak Vietnamese, but it's pretty easy to figure out. If you don't understand me, tell me and I'll write a walkthrough. The pictures tell it all, though.
EDIT:
Things you need:
-Thay Doi_SplashScreen.
-NBH_Tool_v1.1.
-HTC_ROM_Tool.
Create a BMP or JPG that's 240x320.
Run Chạy Tool Replace SplashScreen.exe
Click Load Bitmap and choose your file.
Click Update Splash.
It will create the needed files where the BMP/JPG is currently stored.
Take the ruu_signed.nbh and use NBH_Tool_v1.1 to extract the PrimarySplash.nb that you can use with your ROM.

you should probably type it up anyway. hah

Thanks for the link, Ivan

Can someone upload the files, I cant read the site so I cant make a log in lol.
Thx

Dumb Question
Okay, this is probably a dumb question.

Okay got it. Will try it. Thanks.
by the way, thanks so much for using Megaupload and Not Rapidshare. Megaupload is by far the best.
I'm nervous about doing this but here goes.

Just one question. I put the PrimarySplash.nb in splash box and not system box -- right?
Please advise.
thanks. (I just don't want to brick my phone.)

Got it -- worked. You are a Genius.
Okay I did what I thought and it worked great. Thanks again!!!!!

yay for viets! (sorry gotta represent)

Haven't tested that, but it's probably for one of the other two startups. The first startup cannot be changed without flashing.

Be nice if you could tweak this. Says ROM by Tom Condron. Nice graffics though. Uninstalled.

did you make the picture that you want for the flash screen ? Did you download the easy how to as well ???

Ok I am no noob .. Maybe im too tired or I missed something somewhere in all of this. So let me ask all the dumb questions and hopefully you can make this a sticky clearly explained. Lets start will all the directions 1 by 1 and hopefully 1 of you geniuses can clean it up then hopefully make a sticky .....
A.) Download all files needed. (assistance is more than welcomed here)
B.) get the picture you want to use for your splash screen.
(**Instructions written by ttran001**)
1. Copy the image you would like to use into the image folder.
2. Open up the Step 1 folder and run the Replace SplashScreen.exe file.
3. Click on Load Bitmap from the newly opened menu (Replace Artemis SPlashScreen.
4. Click on the Update Splash button.
The PDA Phone ROM Update Utility 3.0.3.1 menu will pop up.
Leave it alone.
5. Go back to the image folder for step 1 and locate the RUU_signed.nbh file.
6. Copy the RUU_singed.nbh and place it into the RUU_signed folder.
7. Go back and close out both PDA Phone ROM Update Utility 3.0.3.1 and Replace Artemis SplashScreen.
8. Now go to the step 2 folder and double click on the nbhtool.exe.
9.This will open up Dutty's good NBH tool v1.1.
10. Click on the Decompile NBH file button.
11. Browse back to the RUU_singed folder and locate the new RUU_signed.nbh file.
12. Choose the same location or the one of your choosing to save the extract files.
13. Once completed it will extract a new file called PrimarySplash.nb, this is your new Splash replacement file.
OK we now have that part as easy as can be. Now the next parts for creating a nbh file.
Download and extract the HTC_ROM_Tool to your computer.
Double click on the htcrt.exe file to get started.
This new screen will popup.
Click on the Build! button.
On this screen click on the box under the Device: to select your device type.
Choose Herald
Type in your version of the rom, example: 4.10.531.3
Click on the box highlighted in red to choose your OS.nb file.
( Now where do we get this file from i would like that clarified and have it added to a download list for the sticky please.)
Click on the Build ROM botton.
This new screen will popup.
OK ... Now we have a nbh file... Now what would be the correct way of flashing this to a device. also the basic questions.
1.) Will this delete and or change my settings. ?
2.) What are the risks of flashing this way ?
3.) Does this work with HardSPL ?
4.) Does this work without HardSPL ?
5.) Must the picture be a bitmap ?
6.) Can I just use the ReplaceSplashScreen to just change the splash screen ?
7.) Does the program ReplaceSplashScreen work on wing before HardSPL or after or both ?
8.) Maybe im really tired how do I put pictures in this thread ... LOL ...

If I want to change the Windows Mobile splash also, do I change the name from "PrimarySplash" to "Secondary Splash"? or something? thanks.

kittypong, you should try all the panels until it works nicely in your phone. Each device has an specific paneltype. One of the most common is the paneltype 1. Try to flash that one dated 20-February-2010 from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/2010-02-20/polaris/
Are you following a guide to flash your device?

Please help me
Please can you help me ? What have I do when on my phone screen is still only "smart mobility". How can I flash back system ? Thanks.

Kittipong, when you flash to NAND you actually don't have any system, only a kernel that allows to boot from it. You have to install Android after this step.
I suggest you to follow the guide I made for NAND booting here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625200
I think you forgot to follow some steps.

i did the same thing, but i've a different problem: after "smart mobility" there are 2 pulses of vibration and the screen become black.
nothing else.
now, when i connect my phone to pc, the customruu doesn't work.
what can i do?

You need to flash from the spl tri colour screen,black screen usually the wrong panel .nbh
