Ppl c'mon... am puchin in from my fone
Was surfin other threads and i found hard SPLs for various phones...
I have an 8 gig card.. with partitions on it.Would be amazing if i cld just walk around flashing my rom with just an RUU (mayB i underplayed that )
That woud be cool :S
Newe, folks.. do we have a hard SPL or what !??
Thanx!
How about reading the first post in the vox forum???
Well yeah! i HAVE been doing that but they're no really weel spelled out instructions for a hard spl...
What's posted there is a USPL, not HARD
Well, think that sounded a bit rude.
PeaC
The USPL is the only solution, there is NO hard spl. But USPL is fine unless you flash back a carrier ROM (or HTC ROM)!
Aw well
Just hard SPL'd my touch to some 3. sumthin... was a joy to then flash off the card..
Well, just sumthin i'mgnna have to live with then :S
Thanks, newe!
You can still flash unsigned ROMs from SD-Card with USPL. Look in the Vox Wiki!
you will need to do the USPL only if you flash back to signed ROM's.
otherwise you have to just do it just once if you stay with unsigned rom's
Oh lovely
Then if i get this right, all i have to do it copy the ruu to the root of say, storge card (1) and name it to VOX01.* and it'll execute when i soft reset??
Or does it mean that i can run the updater with any (non-official ) rom from my lappy?
Damn I said look in the Wiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=vox_sdcardflashing

i was thinking the other day and came to wonder about hard SPL. we always stress to the n00bs that it is very VERY VERY important, but then i noticed that the htc rom tool in the kaiser kitchen has a place to build an spl into the rom. can't we just put the spl from hard spl into the rom tool on all of our cooked roms and save everyone a step later? i wasn't sure who to ask and i don't have a kaiser without hard spl with which to test this so i am asking anyone who can answer sorry if i'm not seeing why this can't be done
I think you've forgotten something.
HardSPL is needed to be able to flash your device. So even if HardSPL is baked into a custom ROM, it wouldn't matter. HardSPL has to be installed first, no matter what. Not having HardSPL installed would prevent you from flashing a ROM.
Luckily installing HardSPL ins't really that hard.
meschle's Artemis ROM's have two batch files.
#1 for HardSPL
And
#2 for the CustomRRU.
So First time flashers can't really go wrong.

Yeah but hard SPL does not always work the same way. Some get white screen. I got 3 devieces. All 3 original TyTN II's. First one (my first deviece) flashed spl easly. But the other 2 deviece were getting white screen. Finaly I managed to Hard SPl it but in a other way.

i use to have hard spl sir,and went back to normal official spl,just like going back to official roms.never had a problem..all went smoothly. been running official wm6.1 htc wwe for 2 weeks now with the original spl (not hard spl). Now that i wanted to try again to hard spl and flash cooked roms safely i cant see the usb on the bottom when i do sspl or jump uspl. am i missing something sir??
check for my reply under the sticky at the top of the forum
hard spl flashing...
hello skipper, thesire, and all others,
i wanted to reiterate that you should really read the forum linked above because it has a special "force usb" version of the hard spl installation that mau very well help you.
also, we could all maybe help you a bit more if you could post your firmware/spl versions (the numbers listed at top left on bootloader, but you probably knew that already, lol) Just so we can get a better idea of your situation- the more info the better!
i do a lot of kaiser and athena rom building, I posted a few decent roms at the beginning of the year but i havent released one since... (workin on one now though) but i am not exactly the caliber of rom builder that some of these guys are ... anyways, my point is that i have been in A LOT of hairy situations like this, but persistance is the key, so if i can help in any way i will....

hey genius you are replying to the wrong guy. I DID NOT make the post. The guy who did i already suggested the solution you provided (even before you did) under jockyw's hardspl thread where he posted the same exact problem ....
i have managed to get in to the bootloader to flash the hard spl,using the 1.56 ver of sspl..however,neither of all the hard spl works after that.i cant flash any of the hard spl packages. im really suprise this is happening as i have done a lot of flashing back and forth for my tytnII. oh yah,my spl is 3.29 from the official HTC WWE wm6.1
thanks for all the help..
well so finally here's a real hardspl =)
it's based on USPL's - new feature is overwrite protection. so devices won't get bricked if flashing a full shipped rom. the version after flashing this will be "xx.xx.cmon" (ending in cmon).
btw, this uses same CID patches as the 3.07 USPL made by htctouchp but i removed modelid patch after determining it wasn't necessary (makes it safer by not allowing to flash other devices' roms).
also thanks to htctouchp for testing this hardspl.
NOTE that shipped roms with SPL.NBH included will fail to flash until the SPL.NBH is removed (in the past this would have resulted in a brick, now hardspl protects you from this).
also, all these hardspl's include the size patch to allow flashing smaller images via RUU!
usage: download from attachment, flash with pof sspl, enjoy
or if you already have some version of uspl, then just use that to update straight to hardspl. (but after installing hardspl you will always have to use sspl if you want to change spl version, see detailed instructions below.)
more detailed instructions:
this is to flash any SPL: either update to hardspl this way or flash another spl over hardspl. (copied from other post)
0. make sure your device is synced to activesync!!
1. Run the elf-uspl.exe from ELF_USPL_2.26.0000.zip
2. Watch Screen and Press Enter When Asked.
3. Screen should Jump to White on Phone and on PC Flashing Loading Bar will Show.
4. Stuck in Black Ducky Loading Screen?, check Active Sync Connection or Do a hard reset on Phone first. But be sure to do the last Actual Flashing in White Screen. Sometimes this needs a few tries to go through white screen.
5. Done.
UPDATE: 2.26 and 2.28 hardspl's: 2.28 is best if 3.x versions don't seem to work on your device. very stable because it seemed to work on any elf/elfin so far.
...get them from attachments in this post,
and thanks to htctouchp (Aman) for saving me time by editing these!
UPDATE: 3.10 HSPL: Aman found a new SPL update and ported my hacks to it, thanks attached to this post too.
UPDATE: 3.14 HSPL: Aman found yet another new SPL update and again ported my hacks to it; newest attachment in this post. new feature: cool picture while device is charging!! if you don't like the idea of the device being on in bootloader when it's not in use just charging the battery, you can stick to 3.10 or 2.28.
[SIZE=+2]IMPORTANT: 2.26 and 2.28 are for both Elf and Elfin, but 3.07 and 3.10/3.14 sometimes don't work on 64mb Elf so if you have that device, test with USPL version first[/SIZE]
still, if you've managed to flash the wrong version, then to unbrick, see for now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3395787&postcount=155
[SIZE=+2]IMPORTANT 2:[/SIZE] [SIZE=+2]3.14 can Cause Larger Battery Drain then expected.[/SIZE]
Further Plans When I Get The Time:
- better integration of SSPL loader, and check included to prevent 3.xx installing on Elf's
- user friendly unbricking

as mentioned by cmonex, u need to use SSPL to flash another SPL i.e. elf-uspl.exe, the white screen method, which u were using before to flash the USPLs.

I've been out of the loop for a while. I just bought a new computer with Windows Vista and I just got a Tilt tonight. Trying to find out where to begin reading to unlock, Hard SPL and flash the MobileVista 3 Premium ROM. It's kind of confusing with all the old links. I don't know what's Vista compatible or not.
CID unlocking is tottaly your choice. Alot of ppl would say that its better (and they are probably right) but before attempting that using vista you have to play with the PC's drivers (to make it resemble XP)
those type of unlockers are probably the only thing u might face trouble with using vista...
but since ur warranty is still applicable, just flash hard spl. It will do the needful perfectly and after that u can flash any ROM u want. U can flash hard spl and roms using vista without any problems
go here for flashing hard spl
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396922
if there is a particular ROM you have ur eye on, go to the thread of that ROM and see what hard spl the chef reccomends (as there is more than one type of hard spl)
good luck

Thanx for the reply. How to I fix the drivers? The recommended IPL SPL was this: IPL CPLD-8
SPL 1.0.OliPof
My phone is used, it's not under warranty, so I'm not concerned about returning it. CID or Hard SPL? Which do you think would be better? I just want to flash different ROMS until I find one I like.
Flashing was so much easier with my Artemis.
Greetings,
Is there any RUU program for HTC Panther?? Or Treo FW upgrade utility??
Thanks!

I am never surprised by the smugness on this site. He is obviously from a different country and may not be able decipher through lots of English posts quickly...
tramuyo, keep checking back...there are a few posts on PPC Geeks with some activity on the CDMA verson of the Panther. Hopefully we'll be having fun with some new ROM's soon!

Obviously if he has 333 posts on this site, then he does know a little english.
Also, he knows to ask for a RUU for a custom ROM.
I would BET that he knows what HardSPL is as well, but like most people, simply too lazy to look

Oh, you free lance moderators and your worthwhile posts that contribute to the forums so much. The best way to build your post count is to respond with "search before asking!" in every new thread.
Anyway, yeah, a hardSPL is useless if we don't have an RUU. It's supposedly confirmed (according to a Sprint employee... who knows) that WM 6.5 WILL come to this device, so if/when that happens, we've got our RUU.
Good to hear. Thanks for the info to0

@ everyone: I need a RUU bcoz I want to flash some patched radio to try some things, thats all. I have SPL MFG and other stuff
here is the RUU that you can extract out of the 1.04 update from sprint.
I think we have to make things a bit clearer:
1) You CAN flash your device with any localized rom WITHOUT having to hard-spl it (ROM must be signed). HardSPL is only needed to upgrade the radio part (and to block dangerous IPL/SPL upgrades too, obviously) and flashing unsigned cooked roms.
2) You prolly CAN flash your device without CustomRUU. Generally speaking all devices made by HTC can be flashed from the SD simply putting a .nbh file with the proper name for the device in the root dir of the SD expansion card. Then, pushing a combination of buttons, you can start the flash process.
For the HTC Panther (the codename of the TP), we can only guess what name we have to use (PANTimg.nbh and TPimg.nbh could be good candidates). Then we have to guess the right button combo. Hard? Uneasy? Let's try...
