Hi,
Please can anyone help me. I desperately need MDA Compact 2 (HTC CHARMER) SD Rom backup with IPL & SPL.
My PPC is in bootloader mode due to wrong upgrade.
IPL 2.06
SPL 2.15.0001
Thanks in advance.
you can use the updater from bootloader, I did without activesync
My Bootloader is Corrupt.
Actually My PPC has a G3 DOC and SPL is of Now G4 DOC.
It is connecting in bootloader mode but not allowing any upgrade.
The only option is "r2sd backup of SPL"
Can u help me?

Sorry to bother you,but I see you have a prophet too
Could you be so kind to create an SD image of the prophet too (including ipl&spl) so I can restore one of my broken Prophet and upload it here so other people who have this problem can be helped ?
Thanks !

No problem, this forum helped me a lot, so i glad to give back to pepole here.
Its not working
today I got a 256MB MMC Card because SD Card was not available.
I tried it but nothing happend.
Can it be that the card must be SD and model and manufacturer must be same or something wrong with the backup image.
I then tried making SPL image from shiped ROM by typhoneNBFtools.pl on the same card but the message was "Update Not Allowed"
Please help.

did u CID ulock your phone? you must do that before flashing with SD.
I used Lokiwiz to unlock it, but I dont know it worked or not.
After this wrong update (Prophet Custom Rom for G4) the SPL is now of G4.
I am now facing the same proble as Jester (G4 SPL on G3 DOC).
As G3 & G4 DOC structure is different so its not booting to OS and even not allowing any G3 SPL to load.
I even tried Wizard Roms, Prophet Recent Roms and even Jester's ROM but my IPL & SPL stayes same as.
IPL 2.06
SPL 2.15.0001.
Dont know what to do more ?

I've investigated deeper, and if you have a G3 with an G4 SPL you are screwed, the only way to recover is to do a hardware level fix, that is to move the flash chip to a good G3 with the correct SPL still in memory and then flash it, then move the chip back into your phone.
in short:
NEVER, EVER MIX the IPL/SPL of ANY G3 or G4 device, you will brick your phone !

I had the same problem with my JAMin. I messed up trying to flash it with a home-made ROM and the tool used to build the ROM put two G4 SPLs instead of one G3 and one G4. This caused my G3 JAMin to have a G4 SPL. It wouldn't boot past the "rainbow screen" and the IPL and SPL levels were similar to what you have now.
The solution for me was to have it repaired under warranty :roll:
My charmer is still under problem.
Actually problem is that.. My phone is G3 chipset.. but someone flashed it with G4 flash files.
and Its spl and ipl is 2.xx.xxx and phone is detect as G4 chipset.. but phone is G3..
NOW ANYONE can guide me how I can write G3 Ipl/spl
waiting.

As I mentioned my JAMin was repaired under warranty. When it was returned to me they had replaced the main board. So it seems to be quite a problem to re-write the SPL if it has been flashed with the wrong type.
The new board has the G4 flash memory, so no more unlocking/downgrading adventures for me

Hi,
Yes You may be right, we need a ROM with only G3 IPL/SPL or only G3 SPL and if we can force this G3 SPL (I think JAFWM can do it but not sure) into the phone the problem will be solved.
But Question is where can we find this "RUU_Charmer_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship" as it is not available on net, the file on FTP is corrupt.
"RUU_Charmer_2060227_20602110_021921_T-MobileUK_Ship" have both G3 & G4 IPL/SPL and when we write this ROM into phone it writes G4 IPL/SPL as Phone is detected having G4 by every software.
Otherwise the only option left is "JTAG" but only one guy (ARC but he lives in Russia) know the test points for Charmer.
I solved this problem before using JAFWM dongle
just uncheck skip ipl/spl and try flash
it will flash ur mobile with the correct IPL and SPL

Thanks for your Quick Reply, please tell us as which ROM version & which JAFWM version you used.
Thanks
i used rom JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021 and JAFWM ver 2.2g
Thanks Man,
can u please confirm me that you had same problem of G4 SPl on G3 DOC.
Because JAFWM detects my phone as G4 DOC and the ROM you mentioned has both G3 & G4 SPL so I think It will try to write G4 SPL not G3.
sorry for the mentioned rom
this one not for charmer
just detect ur phone in JAFWM , chose the nk file for ur charmer , uncheck skip ipl/spl then flash
in that way i think ur mobile will be revived again

First of all Thank u very very much as I was not hoping to get such favour from any one so Thank You Again.
Yes I did give it a try, its not working with the message that "please get a new NBF"
I hope someday I may be able to use my Charmer Again.............
JAFWM (whatever this is) is not working (as mak_us1977 mentioned)?
BTW, how do you know if your machine is G3 or G4? By looking if your unit is P200 or P300? And to confirm,
SPL 2.06.0001 only works on G3?
SPL 2.15.0001 only works on G4?
Want to put this on the Wiki to avoid future similar problems

Dear mak....
Please let me know if you had SPL 2.xx.0001
This SPL is NASTY.
Searching the forum for these words gives too many replies. So I would appreciate it if someone would explain what IPL and SPL exactly are. On my Prophet IPL = 2.10.001 and SPL = 2.15.001. Should they not be the same, and if yes, how can I upgrade IPL only (whatever it is).
Who will shed some light on this?
IPL = Initial Program Loader, this is the bootloader
SPL = System Programming Language (I Think), Not sure exactly what this does. Its has something to do with the Chip, in the Prophets case.
G3 chip ends in .000 or G4 ends in .001.
I have IPL 1.0 but my SPL is 2.15.000 (i.e I have a G3 chip)
I also know higher SPL's are a pain to unlock, you have to try and downgrade
Hope this helps, it's only what I can gather.
Regards
Austin
how does one downgrade or upgrade?
Guess, that SPL is something like hardware abstraction layer software, platform &chip dependent.

Austin, you are right, just one thing. The Chip G3 ends in 000 and the G4, ends in 001.
What's the risk of flashing a Prophet G4 with a G3 ROM, or a Prophet G3 with a G4 ROM?

Your service centre may be kind enough to repair the phone under warranty if you manage to do this mistake. The phone will not start again if you flash it with the wrong IPL/SPL and without specialised equipment a main board replacement is the only solution to this.
(I did this myself and it took the service centre three weeks to fix it. I guess they struggled with their JTAG cables and then gave up and just replaced the board instead.)
The most of service centers does nothing but changing boards, display and other parts, and do some software loads via USB. Most of the services has no even JTAG equipment nor documentation on how to load the flash via JTAG.
What could be the differences between IPL/SPL versions?
Like I have IPL ánd SPL: 2.10.0001
While most people here on the board seem to have 2.15.0001
Also saw some ROM upgrades (the pdamobiz one for instance) which says it's for 2.15.0001. Although on their english forum it says 2.xx.0001, but not in the file
And while I'm at it (another sneak question ), I guess the pdamobiz rom (aku 2.3) upgrades the device to os: 2.15.13.27 right?
IPL = Initial Program Loader
SPL = Second Program Loader (System Programing Language does not make any sense)
IPL Trigger SPL and then SPL activate the OS
They do the Hardware check-around and hang up if something wrong happens.

check picture with DOC boot sequence
can someone help me to find IPL 2.15 for G3 prophet
I flashed my Dopod 818 Pro with lvsw's AKU2.3 & AKU2.3.1 and my SPL was changed to 2.20.0001 while IPL was kept 2.15.0001. I wanted to install the official Dopod AKU2.0 ROM back but it failed. I used ROMUpdateUtility.exe and it failed since initialization. If I used ROMUpdateUtility_No_VID.exe it failed at 95% which I believe the official .nbf file has some conflicts with SPL.
And I can't downgrade SPL back to 2.15.0001.
I saw some thread saying that there's no mean to downgrade G4 chip.
Does it mean I have to use AKU2.3 from now on?

No. Search this forum. There is a procedure for updating a G4 phone without touching the IPL/SPL areas. Be careful though! A mistake when attempting to upgrade your PDA may result in it being downgraded to a paper weight!
I have A Wing and I Dont see the IPL/SPL when I start it up, I downloaded the wizard service tool but It doesnt seem to work( "Warning!
A device was detected but one (or both) of RAPICommunications and Applications Policy isn'tenabled. Use first button for that purpose and try again") Ive Hard reseted it and enabled RAPI + unsigned APPS but it still wont work so Is there some other way to Get the IPL/SPL? Thanks.
never Mind I didnt enable the cab file within My wing Thnxs XDA Community ^_^
I was wondering how do I find out what IPL or SPL I have on my wing??
my prophet g4 device accidently flashed with 2.21 of wizard............

I bet you wont have the battery problem with a wizard's crossbow rom!

hehe hope so i will test but now i wont touch it again for a while! it was very hard work finding this out.
i would like to mention everything is a little slow at least i think it is compared to earlier. maybe im wrong but this could be the result of the 2.21 ipl and spl

I have an idea of how you could do it with g3.
Is your cid locked?
Is your phone g3 or g4?

its g4 xda neo cid locked
UPDATED NOW NEW TESTS DONE. IPL SPL = 2.21
if i use prophet roms now everything is slow on device not usuable. i have to use wizard roms LOL. only problem then no sound is working. but replacing dll from prophet gives u sound back again. ........ THIS IS ****ING BULL****. anyway its usuable again now. i flashed now the fucing pbootloader of wizard into my device..........................
Hardreset does not work anymore if holding camera and other button it goes again back to bootloader now i need to find out how u do a hard reset on wizard LOL.
anyway i need a IPL AND SPL From prophet ............... extracting ipl and spl from qtek prophet and traslating it making a new nbf results in a flash process but after i stays on old IPL SPL ....................... ill report soon more about this strage problem having a wizard bootloader on Prophet.
omg this is ****ing weird
that that works is really strange^^ thank you though again you rescued my device hope its gonna work for me I'll report in the next days...
so if I'm doing thats right the whole thing is working, while you are connecting the wires get don't plug the wall chargare in so you don't have elictricity and cover up the rest of the pins im not sure if thats necessary but you don't wanna brick your phone even more the phone is turning of though as soon as you disconnect the wires... i'm having a prophet rom on it right now i'm trying a wizard rom now...
alright im running the wizard aku 3.2 rom now. its working very well except that i have to wires coming out of the back of my pda.
but ipl downgrade might be possible from there... so thank ýou alot the solution works
your welcome
i will make a paypal account now so u can donate me i guess this solution is very good and no need to pay for it =)
UPDATE: IM NOW ON 2.26 TMOBILE WIZARD NOW WITH IPL AND SPL 2.26 THIS IS WORKING ****ING GOOD AND TRUST ME ITS FASTER THAN MY PROPHET WAS EARLIER WITH PROPHET BOOTLOADER.
GET THE TMO 2.26 from FTP and flash it. it will update ur device (IPL + SPL )too 2.26 never mind of it
IPL DOWNGRADE is NO PROBLEM FOR ME u can extract rom hex edit the ipl part and version number i did that already my ipl now is again to low number (custom) 2.01 but spl i coudnt find out to edit. im working with winhex and primary memory editing since this is very dangerous i dont suggest to do it. only experienced users should do that
WARNING WARNING WARNING !!!!
I WANT TO REPEAT AT THIS POINT AGAIN DONT TRY THIS ON WORKING DEVICE!!! ITS JUST A SOLUTION IF UR DEVICE IS ALREADY DEAD!!!!!!

can u take a pic for the wires?
wires
NO need to i will explain in detail.
1. Take ur phone and put it on ur table =)
2. Turn it so u can see the camera
3. On the right u see 6 Pins.
4. The Pin 1 is nearest to Camera
5. Pin 5 would be far away from camera.
u got it now ?
it worked for me with the sixth pin to by the way but that might be why it doesn't work without the wires for me yet.
did you cover up the other pins alphazero?
you were able to flash a lower bootloader back onto the device right with some kind of hexedit application or something?
I think a lot of users would be glad if you could upload a rom that can downgrade the ipl and spl including me , as you said it requires a lot of skill to cook the right rom...
thanks man
Just a quick one. If you can downgrade the ipl and spl to 1.xx.0000 or 1.xx.0001, could it be possible to do CID unlocking?
Downgrade
I could do compile a rom that downgrades ipl to whatever u want. the spl is coded and i need to find the place in a spl rom where version id is written.
i found out that the update rom process checks version id.
so theory is fooling of a lower rom a higher rom id. this means your downgrade rom will have a higher rom id.
im working on it right now. i have to do some test on university right now like many others please be patient.

haha be patient and 2 minutes later you post it
spl 2.21 is working normally on the prophet anyway doesn't it?
can you upload that downgrade?
how is it coming ...did you find out anything new?
if you manage to downgrade ipl and spl to prophet version you are where you were before you flashed the wizard rom right?
answer
yes it would solve the accident wizard g4 rom flash on prophet!
but isnt spl on the prophet 2.21 anyways and only ipl is 2.15?
Dear Alphazero is it possible to solve wrong flashed g3 with jesterz g4 rom so now i can be only in bootloader mode and i can start flashing my prophet but please tell me how and what with On my bootloader screen now is written IPL 2.10 and SPL 2.20.0001. Please help me repair my prophet if it is possible
Should I do something with cutting battery pins?
uhm no the battery pins was because our device did only turn on if it was plugged into the charger, which meant you couldn't plug it into the usb at the same time to flash a new rom.
your problem is different and can't be solved with that solution... sorry sd goldcard i guess
Yes but i can only connect to mini usb and from bootloader i can flash it with battery full so please tell me shell i cut some pins from the battery and what with should i try to flash

No you should not. Since their is no difference whatsovever during normal use. So why should you?
No need to update, there comes no known improvement with the higher IPL/SPL version. And with G4 devices you cannot downgrade anymore once you have the latest version on it. My advice do not update, but you are free to deceide. I will stick with my present version.

resolder the g3 chip, it costs about $70 to make and never ever touch your ipl/spl again.
Hello everybody!
I made up a new version of pof's USPL, which is explicitly for the ELFIN 128/256 MB devices. So now you can flash SPL in step three without bricking your ELFIN, as USPL for ELF used to do.
This version is based on the ELFIN 2.20.0000 SPL and was patched the same way as USPL for ELF.
Download here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/94753943/ELFIN_USPL.rar
It has been tested by various users including myself and was verified to work without any problems.
Even though, I take no responsibility for any damages on your devices.
Thanks to pof for his great work!
If it doesn't work for you right away, follow the instructions in this file to enable RAPI prior to using USPL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=46098&d=1186268099
EDIT:
SOME PEOPLE GIVE THE INSTRUCTION ON MY ELFIN USPL TO CANCEL STEP THREE. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING WHAT THIS STEP IS? WITHOUT THIS STEP, THERE IS NO (!!!!!) SENSE IN ELFIN USPL.
So please stop giving tutorials on things you don't understand.
STEP 3 IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP! RUN IT, DON'T CANCEL.
good news for elfin users! well i will use this version when i got a chance lol thanks for your great job tho~
btw got you a mirror link: http://www.fs2you.com/files/0bbd31fa-e3ad-11dc-91b6-0014221b798a

i have the same question.
I received a "corrupt image error" at step 3, i rebooted the device and is working fine like nothing has happened, any clues?
I have this ROM installed:
RUU_Elfin_CHT_OPEN_2.20.753.1B_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_BLUE_Ship_Reduced.exe
IPL 2.20.0002 and SPL 2.20.0000 both remain unchanged after running elfin-uspl.exe
what is difference from pof's USPL?
as i used it to update my ELFIN without any problem
With pof's ELF USPL you are able to proceed till the end step 2 and then flash the ROM you want. If the ROM is not okay, your device is bricked.
Also, for like 99 percent of our ELFIN users, flashing USPL in step three used to brick the device.
With my USPL, ELFIN users can run step three without bricking the device.
-> Why flash USPL in step 3?
Because only then you will be able to flash any ROM from bootloader, not only from a running OS.
@giants2k
Please make sure your device is RAPI enabled. You can find the necessary files including a manual on how to unlock RAPI here:

Nice, very nice tool ... no more brick then
Thanks for the work
Can someone please clarify this for me.
I bought my cellphone from Vietnam, and it is unlocked. It is windows 6 prof, and I am very serious about flashing my baby to 6.1. When I was in Vietnam, I was using VietTel, t-Mobile, and in Mexico using Telcel.
BUT I bricked my iMate Sp3i before, and didn't want(CAN'T afford) to brick another one.
The question would be.
Because it is unlocked. Do I need to CID Unlock my Elfin P3452 before upgrading to 6.1? Thanks in advance.

somemore questions..
after runnig 2 steps successfully in pof's app, if rom update fails then i think it does not brick all the time.. atleast not 99% !!
is SPL temporary updated means after some update again CID is locked?
or it is permanent?
Excelent work djvw !! many thanks, I can confirm that works fine, three users in our spanish forum flashed this USPL and it works in all cases... no more white screen to flash roms.....
my problem is that my elfin gets stucks with that stupid penguin and 75% on my pc in step 2... doesnt move ahead at all.. did install the rapi cabs too.. did reset too.. any help or tips or guidance would be really helpful

Try with a hard-reset, some users get white screen after hard-reseting the device.
and remove SDHC memory card if you have it.

Does this one work on ELF ? Anyone tried already?
I have an ELF touch with 2.20.0000 SPL, should I use this ELFIN version or use the 1.11 ?
