Hi folks,
Do you have any experience about Hard SPL which needs server connection ???..
What would you think if you meet a Hard Spl which requires server connection during flashing?
What would be the reason?
Could it be any risk in flashing?
Would you flash with this?
Would you feel yourself comfortable and secure ??

please don't use this, working 3.08 SPL is better than broken 2.20 SPL
unless you are rich and can trust a foolish Palesinian all attack him lets see what can this make for you
here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1449114&postcount=21
I'm pretty sure that G3 SPL willl work, but where are the problems, if pdocwrite ended in the middle of writing the SPL it will make primary part of SPL 2.20 and the other part SPL 3.08 and will make trouble so working 3.08 SPL is better than broken 2.20 SPL
here are my advices, but I think you should know them as this site for experts.
of course connect ur phone using active sync
here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1449114&postcount=21
please notice 2 bat files Paradis_G3.bat for g3 only and Paradis_G4.bat for g4 only
don't use if you don't know what G device you have
1- turn off your phone , to avoid recieving calls or sms or cell broadcast during the writing. and if you please turn off wifi and bluetooth and beam, i.e. safe mode, turn things off more than flight mode, if you can turn services notifcations all things you can turn off.
2- turn off all other apps in your phone.
3- turn off all other apps in your pc, and trun off sleep mode.
4- open task manager for windows pc (XP) and go to task see pdocwrite.exe in it, don't do anything unless it is close by its slef, and the cmd window will close by it self.
5- ask luck to make pdocwrite finish at the end of writing SPL without any problem.
6- wish me best of luck if this work, and forgive me if this didn't work and killed your phone
I tried to write the g3 SPL on my device, but if this stoped in the middle of my test, will not do anything, cause I have already SPL 2.20, I hope you understand what I mean.
please don't do it, you don't have to test this it is too risky
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1449114&postcount=21
are there any chances to work over 3.08?
it should work, acuall if some expert please help me there in this, I pretty sure it must work, but it is so risky, please consider this, it may brick your phone, while writing SPL
please can u explain whats the difference between 3.08 and 2.20?
im very interested in downgrading, but on the other hand if i do all the steps, im afraid the writing stops.
it may stop, it is so risky, it may stop I can't gaurantee, please if some expert help us here.
I write the paradis_gx.nb, kb by writing evry 32kb again, soevery 16 kb is again there, but the length I got 0x178000 but it suppose to be 0x200000 as slickdick told me, please some expert here, or please slick **** help us here.
I'm sure the lenght is 0x178000 but why in the code it is 0x200000???????
I test this in my device and worked cause I have already the SPL 2.20
the deference is 2.20 is for prohet and 3.08 is for charmer
you have a g3 you did a mistake by didn't unlock cid before doing anything
so... like the title says i'm new at this sort of stuff... seeing that the SPV C600 is my first Smartphone ... so i have a few questions:
1. What is the SPL ???
2. Is it necessary to have the latest SPL ??? and if so how do i update it... keep in mind that i already flashed my phone several times and i am familiar now with most of the programs but not with all the procedures
IPL = initial program load
SPL = secondary program load
These are the boot loader. I'm not sure what handles what.
My vauge understanding is that there's a firmware for the radio which handles the actual phone, and then there's the windows mobile software itself which is your interface to the phoen hardware.
Maybe someone will come along to edumacate us.
I've been trying to find a thread that addresses my issue but have'nt been able to find anything addressing my issue.
I wanted to upgrade my 8125 G4 (IPL/SPL 2.25.0001) to WM6 so I tried the guide for "newbies".
I have windows XP and Activesync 4.45. I was able to establish a connection with my 8125. I ran the HardSPL and it confirmed my device is G4 and it went to the utility.
I followed the utility and was able to reconnect and reestablish connection with activesync. after rebooting my phone the IPL is 2.21.0001 but the SPL is still 2.25.0001. Can you tell me why it did'nt change to
2.21.olip?
I then tried rerunning HardSPL but when the utility asked me to reconnect and establish connection with activesync activesync does not discover the phone. Otherwise am able to use my phone just fine and can even activesync with my laptop.
I did not continue to other steps for fear of bricking my phone since the guide says not to continue if SPL isn't 2.21.olip.
Can anyone please help me get back on my way to WM6?
my phone is:
Rom 2.25.11.1 wwE
radio 02.25.11
Protocol 4.1.13.12
ExtRom 2.25.11.102

Multi Posting !
Instead of starting a new thread practically in every forum is not going to get you help immediately and is not advisable,its always better and more beneficial if you post in the appropriate forum and thread related to the subject and problem.There are better chances of getting help sooner and by reading that particular thread might help you to solve your problem as many may had this problem and got it solved.
Thanks for the tip.
I particularly don't like redundancy, but since the other forums also deal with similar topics I thought multiposting would be ok.
Do you recommend one particular forum?
I thought the upgrades forum would be ok, but since I have a G4, well...you know.

to install new roms you have to use either Hard or Soft SPL
while hard spl is required only ondce and soft spl is required before every flash.

Hard reset and in customization soft reset again.
I install cert_spcs and Enable rapi
than restart than take the microsd and simcard
than run elfin_uspl and elf_usp_2.26.0000
but can not be success always when haret installing ,screen turn white and disconnect to pc
I used in vista and in xp
I did not run Touch_Unlock.exe because of viruses.
All my actions ı could not finish 3/3 step
What I miss or Is there an other method for CID unlock
Regards
some of these files might be perceived as viruses, but they're not.. it's safe to run them.
if you follow the instructions exactly as they're written you will manage unless your device has some kind of a hardware problem... trust that this has been done on many many .. many devices before.
in a more general manner, if you flash a hard-spl and then flash a specific rom of your choice, everything should work fine.
Hi im new on this site and i signed up cos i had the chance of getting my own Htc vox. The thing is i want to update it from WM 6.1 to WM 6.5.

you can try WM6.5 CLEAN / CUSTOM ROMs v3.1 (STABLE) for Vox , I think the package includes a tutorial
go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=526206 to get it

does this SPL has anything to do with it?
The SPL (secondary Program loader) is the part of software in the boot process that loads the operating system or uploads a new one. If you follow the "soft SPL" or "Jump SPL" method of replacing the SPL temporarily you cannot kill the device.
Avoid the "hard SPL" if you come across this. You must be well aware of what you do and if not then you could really kill the device.
thanks tobbie!! really helpful
AFAIK you don't need to jump / HSPL for WM Standard devices. It is required for WM Pro devices (correct me if I am wrong).
A piece of warning, make sure that your phone is not network locked (i.e. it is not SIM locked), because then you need to Unlock your phone first before you flash the ROM. Otherwise your phone will become unusable.
SIM unlocking is done in this forum by some people, but it is not free
Also be aware that flashing a custom ROM technically voids your warranty.
The SPL has to allow the flashing of a non CID matching or a non signed ROM. This is done by either Super-CID (on older devices), Gold Card (still needing a valid signed ROM) or bypassing the onboard SPL with a patched SPL. The latter can be done either "soft" - i.e. temporary in RAM (aka "jump" SPL) or permanently (aka "hard" SPL) by flashing the patched SPL to the device.
For Vox you need at least jump SPL (I would prefer this as it does not kill anything) as the CID unlocking is not possible for free.
Commercial Services offer a complete unlock (CID and SIM) for about 10 GBP
