Help! Bootloader wont flash rom! - General Questions and Answers

Hi I have a vx6900, and I am trying to flash for my first time.
I installed cokeman bootloader 2... and I have a sd with a rom compatible with my phone, but when I get to to the tri color screen, it looks like it is going to load the rom for a second, and then quickly just says serial at the bottom.
The sd is fat32 but i didnt reformat it once i bought it.
and I named the nbh file the correct name.
Please help?
I also tried flashing a radio, didnt work.

Welcome to forums

O2 restoring original boot rom

Hi,
ok I'm a lil bit desperate right now
I got my XDA II mini today and saw an update on the o2 site and started installing it .. only to notice that it was for the XDA II and not the mini. So, this thing killed my boot rom. I then found your guys site and installed GER_11201_150_11210 RUU package which went fine ... but well, that thing is for T-Mobile and I don't want my xda to be pink
So, I was looking through the forums to see how I can get my original image as I couldn't find an O2 RUU package. So, I tried the ntrw.exe write to SD card (512MB) thing. Inserted it in my xda, did a soft reset and then a hard reset. In the display serial shows up... but I never get it to ask me Press Power to Flash ...
so a) what am I doing wrong an b) how do I get the german o2 image back on my xda?
thanks
ok I understand now why the SDCard update doesn't work .. because I didn't have a chance to backup my boot rom :/
Where can I get a GER o2 boot rom installer that works on my device?
alright, I installed the 1.12 WWE exe package with the help of MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
... copied the existing boot rom to sd card, and extracted it from there. Overwrote the first 416 bytes in O2_GER_1.12.01_big_storage.nb1 with those of the extracted image.
Now, it's flashing with the SD card ... I'm confident that it'll work, we'll see
ok, the flashing worked ... but O2_GER_1.12.01_big_storage.nb1 is not really O2???
So, where do I get the real o2 boot image?
As much as i know it´s included in the ExtRom....
You can install it manually.
Don´t know who, but someone uploaded "Promasters Autoinstaller 1.5.zip" to the ftp. Very nice application. I would suggest you try/use it. There is an Option to change the bootlogo...
Regards
Stefan
you have to install the extended rom manually!
check the ftp

RUU error (262) update error

Hello guys...
Iam not new, and i have already flashed my first(it was wasted not by my fault)KAISER, it was one year ago and i did it with HARDSLPv1, and lately added some new roms cooked by sakajati(respect)...
Yesterday i bought new one(but one year old) so i tried to flash him as well, i have used HARDSPL 1.93, and then i tried to put Sakajati"s 4th feb ROM, but i come across one big trouble, everytime i try to put it on i encounter the same RUU error:
ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR
This error occurs during the CE ROM code upgrade process. Solution: If this happens, you can just soft-reset the device and run RUU again. The update process will then continue. Note: At this stage, the Wince is destroyed; instead, it is in upgrade mode.
what to do...????
i am very afraid that i destroyed my Kaiser...???
what it means that Wince is destroyed...
Please help me, i am desperate...
Iam not new,

But the solution could be found here (search)
If you see the tri color screen everythng is ok, just win mobile is destroyed. Try to flash a rom from your sd card
Thank you very much...
I hope it will work, i really did search for about an hour and tried to put rom on sevral times, but i didnt find nothing 100% secure, i dont want to indanger the unit any more that i did...
thanks again, i will try it tommorow morning at my job, thats where my SD card is...

Part of the problem is that 1.93 is a jump spl and should be used to upgrade to Hard spl 3.29 or 3.56, not as an spl on its own. You need to run jump spl 1.93 from your device and make sure you are connected to your computer, when you see the bootloader you need to unplug your USB, count to 10 and plug your USB back in then flash a hard spl to your phone! Again 1.93 is not a Hard Spl by itself, it is only a middle man to flash a Hard Spl.
I think the best would be to flash a stock rom at first, cause therefore you don't need an other bootloader. Then flash Hardspl (3.29 if you have a kaiser or 3.56 if you have a tilt) and then flash any rom you want
i obviusly have a lot to learn, mate how do I asses if I have TILT or KAISER, what is the main difference...
[email protected]: i have already DL the stock rom before i posted the tread, i hoped on that resolution if there were no answer...
in about 10 hours from now i will get my hands on my tilt/kaiser and hope to arranged the mess i done; I drop by in any case at that time and notify you about condition and my successes...
p.s.:sorry for my poor english...

It realy doesnt make that much of a difference, I have a tilt and I use 3.29 and I would recomend it to anyone over 3.56 so flash either one, they will both work! And your english is great so no need to say sorry!

A Tilt is a At$T branded Kaiser, a TyNT II is a HTC branded Kaiser. Tilt has a different keyboard and OEM rom., only differences. People say use 3.56 if you have a Tilt because that is an AT$T Spl, but I use 3.29 on My Tilt and it works great so it doesn't really matter.
hey...
nothing seems to work...
I have tried to put default rom dl from here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_ROMs but the problem is that it is not bootable from SD, that has to be because the USB conection isnt on (i selected the 3.34.721.2) so i given up that way
Then i flashed the HARD spl 3.29(have kaiser) via SD steb by step first with this instruction: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433835; and it dint go through
so i tried with this instruction: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420683
it didnt work either, they are the same I know(noticed later);
So problem is that i stuck at WHITE screen that says "LOADING..."
nothig else...???
finally i manage to load/boot the htc rom from xda-wiki site, but i have to chose another one

Hey man, nice to see that your device rewakes, you can flash every rom from sd card, simply rename the nbh file to kaisimg.nbh than restart into bootloader and it will automatically take the one from the card
Unfortanly, althought i would like you to be right, you are not. When i tried to do it via SD, i stuck at white screen saying LOADING...(blue) and nothih further... and i tried also the Cmonex_s Hard SPL3.29_SD which also stucks at same screen
So now (after updatig with default rom) that i have basicly normal working device i startet from the top. Using @mskip"[email protected] tutorial called: Flasing your first rom (for noobs); it all goes well, till i start to update RUU(sakajati 4 feb) if it matters, and i tried both (spls 1.56 and 1.93), it stops updatig at 17% and notrhin else then works just puting back the HTC default rom from wikiXDA side(thank god for that)
i am thinking of MTTY, although i dont know what it does guys here almoste all say it fix bad rom flash, but i am not sure if thats my main problem, i rahter think it has something with spls...
if someone has some good advice i will be very grateful...

Hi,
I couldn´t flash my Kaiser via SD at the first time and tried something that worked.
The SD´s are formatted in Fat16 usually, try to format to Fat32... It seems like a stupid thing, but worked for me.
Reagards and good luck.
SD must be formated FAT32, to work, also I sugest a smal card, 512 or something like that, SHDC usual doesn't work
I have 1GB SD and its not shdc, so thats ok.and i have done it right now, like you two guys said so i formated it with FAT32 but still no succes.
I guess that this tree lines in red/green/blue screen arent right:
KAIS130
SPL-3.02.0000
CPLD-8
i thing this SPL has to da something to do with all this mess a have done
I have flashed a couple of roms( i had three devices) and i flashed a few for my friends and all was OK till now, and i dont know what else to do...

Yes, you still have a stock spl on there. It needs to be hard spl'd before you flash anymore. Check out the stickies at the top of the forum.
hi again...
Well, I respect the "rules" of forum, thats why i wouldnt ask for insructions that are already written(thanks for the authors) with that i mean stickys, because i read them, almost all...
But I still tried once again, and I came across the same thing, i stuck at 17% when loading RUU or if i choose the VIA SD i stuck at white screen with blue text saying (LOADING...)...
nothing else helps than loading the dafault ROM by HTC... as i already said once again...
if i manage to solve the problem i will be in touch; what do you thing about MTTY
Edit 1:
i have done everything as it says in the instruction, and just like some of you "replyed" me...
but i always stuck at 17%when loading RUU, when i flash it with SPL 1.56 or 1.93 i never get stuck at white screen it always apeare the mentioned SPLs nimbers and some other text in yellow but when i then load RUUs i stuck at excatly 17% nothing less nothing more
edit 2:
yupi....yupi
i made it...

So, what can i do to load a new rom or how do i get the orginal rom back on the phone?
plz help....

Anyone ?? Please?
Hard-SPL bypasses Vendor Model check so shouldn't have any problem flashing any stock ROM have you tried others? Try and flash a HTC or AT&T stock, just a bizarre thing as everyone flashes stocks at some point especially if nearly brick and peeps generally flash stocks to bypass 6.5 hard-reset issue.
Can you go into bootloader and reply with Hard-SPL you have?
Also another way is to try flashing via SD, info in the flashing for noobs guide in sticky.
Same Issue
Hi,
I also use Hard SPL to flash new ROMs, however i also face the same issue with certain roms, currently i remember i has similar issues with ATNT rom.
Ok, or i am a realy noob or i doing somthing wrong...
Now when ik start the phone i get the Tri Color : (Red, Green, Blue Screen)
I did a hard reset en now the phone shows the boot screen (Stylez)
When i take the batterij off and put it in after 20 secs again or the tri color or the boot screen is loading or the screen is black.....
Please don't say that i can trow him into the trash...
All you have described there is normal. Now just follow the noobs guide to flashing in the sticky and do everything it says word for word. If the usb method doesnt work then use the sd card way.

Sorry but i want to be shure, you mean this topic?
And if so, how do i load the rom?
Because the phone is not starting up normal,...
If you want i can make screenshots from the pc and make images so you can see?
Sorry for this noob questions....
Yes that is the thread I meant. So did you follow all that was said to do in the link about kaiser stuck at tri colour screen bootloader?
Ok, tryed but with the boot screen and with the Tri Color screen i can not make any USB connection with MTTY, when i start the kaiser with the camera button and with the powerbuton i can connect (USB is also an option (COM1 and COM2 also)).
But is this a correct move?
*contacted user via MSN*
Also tried several steps using the SD card but the phone will still hang into the tri-colour. It says loading, but won't reboot or do anything else.
Suggestions are still open.
FYI: It's a branded phone and wasn't CID-unlocked before. (Still not AFAIK)

help please!

Radio 1.58?

Hello, i've got problem with my GPS so i would like to reflash radio. The file i found in "athena upgrading" section doesn't work. It says to me wrong version. Is there a spécific file for X7510?
Thank you very much.

Thnxs for the complement , no its not included in my rom's. The reason is, that theres no points in reflashing radio rom, unless you have a problem, since the OS update does not affect radio.

Thank you very much, Hakim but I had an id error when I tried to flash the radio you posted me.
Vico thank you too for the quick reply but I had an 262 error when I tried to flash the radio you posted, I had the Hspl 365, do you think that I have to change to the stock one?
Thank you Vico and Hakim
Greetings from Mexico¡¡¡
Do not change spl to stock. Make sure that your device is x7510 NOT x7500 ect.
Make sure you don't have a sd card, and make sure you are in bootloader mode (camera + reset).
Hi Vico, the model is X7510 and I took out the sd card and tried to flash the radio again, It started well but at the 7% it stopped and now appeared a model ID error [244].
Thank you for your help.
Download my one again, and put your device in bootloader mode, make sure you you only have the two files in a folder. i really don't know what else to do, try another computer maybe?, there is also a way of flash a rom by putting it storage. just try Google
hi vico i just flahs your rom WM6.5.3-23153_128DPI_x7510_6.2_VICO, but have not signal on my divice X7510 , i found this tread and relise that ur roms donst have the radio, iam trying to install this radio Athena 1.58 but have a error massage , . i also try to install the X7510 radio without succes, see the pic atach.

what do you mean with flashing the rom from on board flash? .
what i did. i rename the RUU_signed.nbh to ATHEIMG.nbh i copy to the mini SD an then try to flash the rom in that way from the mini SD, i put the divice in boot loader and right now the screen said .... Loading.... but thats it,. i still dont see any progres.
According to the manual:
III.Select file system and format the MiniSD card to FAT32 mode.
IV.Copy image file XXX.nbh to the micro SD card and rename to ATHEIMG.NBH.
V.Turn the device power off and insert MiniSD card.
VI.Press and hold Power + Camera button, and Reset button to entry Boot loader mode.
VII.Press Power button to start upgrade procedure.
VIII.Reading source code from MiniSD card.
[Note]: This process will takes 15 mins, please don’t power off the device.
IX.After finish, press Reset button to reboot.
So probably make sure its the only file on the sd (and do it exact capital letters ect)
