Hi guys,
I have a touch pro with a few issues (the same as everyone else) and I want to try a few things out in order to try and fix it. I just need to know I can revert it back to its original state if I need to...
This is my first Windows Mobile device, I have flashed hardspl to the device as the thread gives instructions on how to flash back, I'm just a bit concerned about restoring the original rom if I change it; The wiki has a few stock roms available, but it seems they include the SPL which I've read wont work correctly with hardspl installed. I've backed up the rom using pdocread, can I flash it back with pdocwrite without any issues? Obviously if I reconstruct it to flash back, it wont have the HTC signature so if I put the original SPL back on I will have a brick.
I'd like to mess around in the kitchen but need a way to revert it back to retail. How is this usually done?
Thanks.
Simply flash your chosen stock ROM (from the wiki as you pointed out). This will not overwrite your SPL. Hard SPL simply enables you to flash any ROM, stock or otherwise. There is a Stock SPL that you can flash for warranty purposes in post #1 of the HardSPL thread.

Hi, for warranty reasons i need to turn my fuze back to the way it was when att shipped it to me. now ive been reading around for about two days and found some links to stuff but i cant really figure it out on how to do it.. and more so i realized that the att fuze is diff than the orignal htc touch pro(as far as software and keyboard layout goes).. so i need the all the stock packages for the att fuze and the stock radio.. and if someone could post up instructions on how to do it also that would be great. as of right now i tried installing what i though was the stock spl but got just a modified version of a rom. thanks alot
I'm also new and it took me a few tries to get my fuze back to OEM config. These are the instructions that I pieced together from the forums. Here is what I did:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008
1. Revert back to stock radio if changed
Current Ver: 1.02.25.32 http://rapidshare.com/files/157236372/RAPH_Radio_1.02.25.32.rar
2. Install stock ROM
Current Ver: 1.95.902.5 http://rapidshare.com/files/157242627/RUU_Raphael_Cingular_US_.exe
3. Install stock SPL
Install SPL 1.90, your phone may have shipped with SPL 1.95 but you need to install SPL 1.90 to overwrite the OliNex HardSPL. When you reinstall the stock ROM in the next step, SPL 1.95 will be installed. Be sure to follow the instructions on the bottom of the page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410150
4. Reinstall stock ROM
Hope this helps!
Hi guys,
nice work from JockyW, ookba and everyone doing the job to bring us excellent software (pls if i forgot anyone, don't be mad ). I really appreciated the RUU_MAPL_3VOLUTION_WM65_3VO.2.50.112509 for a long time but I will sell my Maple now. It time to move on and try something new. Thats why I need to go back to the Official HTC ROM. I just cannot get it to work...
Obviously just flashing the original HTC Rom won't do the job because of the Hardspl, but how do i get around this. I just need some help on going back.
Thanks in advance, UKFencer
160 hits and nobody got an idea...? Or is the answer too simple?
If i am missing something pls point me to it.
Thanks,
UKFencer
Sorry, I don't think I have any idea. I *think just flashing the original ROM should work, I have upgrade/downgraded other phones with factory/custom roms with no problem. I have a question on top of yours. If I don't Hard SPL, what do I lose? There's a thread about downgrading the HardSpl to 1.19 or 18, I don't know if that helps. I would like an answer to my AT&T question as well. Sorry about hijacking your topic but I at least bumped it.
Download original rom in HTC website. Thats all.
Or you could use goldcard model to flash back to original WWE ROM

Have you ever imagined looking into Wiki
If I were your Maple buyer I would apreciate more to have it upgraded to a cooked ROM, rather to have ugly stock.
You can go back and install any ROM you want

Yes, I agree with your sentiments regarding the ROM, point is however that once the custom ROM is flashed with the Hardspl, the original ROM cannot be flashed back, which is sometimes required, especially if something happens to the phone and it has to be returned for repairs etc to the retailers.
Strange, it´s the 1st time I know that an HTC device can´t go back to original ROM...
I´ll do some research...
The original SPL is included in the package you downloaded from here..... Just have to use it, flash original rom, and you are on your way....
How exactly do I flash the original spl nbh file? I tried replacing the hard spl nbh with the original and running RUU but the spl remained the same.
you need to get the one from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=558003
there is a folder marked original spl in there. it is the same process you did when you put the hard spl on there, just using the original nbh
i had used other roms before, was gonna warranty the phone out so i put everything back stock, decided to keep the phone, now i cant flash anything.
i tried flashing hard spl but it doesnt get past 0%. same things happens if i try to flash a rom.
any help on how to get this thing flashable again?
I'm not sure you can flash hard spl after going back to the stock spl. From what I understand, it's not really the stock spl. It's a patched version of the stock spl that has the proper signature to over-write the hard spl. I don't know if the hard spl is capable of over-writing this one; you should probably post the question in the hard spl thread or maybe pm cmonex. Maybe you just need to run the sspl first, but that's just a guess.
Hello,
I have a G1 and I just installed DeathSPL on it (after installing the radio of course and I have a PVT board). I've been looking around and trying to find how to go back from DeathSPL to something like HardSPL. I am pretty much trying to revert the phone back to it's original state. Any help would be great. I could not find any information on this in the FAQ.
Thanks!

just flash the spl you want to revert back to. just remember, when flashing the spl it will wipe the current rom off of your phone. so after flashing the hardspl, youll need to reflash whatever rom you want to use after.
Thank you, I could not find this anywhere.
