OK lets start at the basics...... In bootloader mode (tricolour screen) what text does it say at top of the screen?
Have you DEFINITELY Sim Unlocked and CID unlocked?

it says these things
kais130 mfg
spl-10.0.Olipof
cpld-8

Ok that confirms you have the capability to flash. I have seen in the past some people have managed to flash one time only using jumpspl but then their device reverts back to original bootloader...I was one of those people
Next question then...Can you boot the phone normally and gain an activsync connection to it?

yes
i can use my phone normally
only i cannot put a new image in

Are you using Xp or vista? If using vista it may be worth trying a reboot... sometimes it goes doolally with its usb ports. If you cannot see the phone through WMDC or activsync after a reboot it is worth going to SYSTEM (on your PC) viewing non present devices through device manager,( Drop to Command prompt and type... Devmgmt.msc set DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1 ) removing the relevant phone connection and then re attaching it so that windows re detects it.
If you can get a connection via actvisync (win XP) or WMDC (vista) to your phone then all should be ok. Uncheck the activesync/ WMDC "allow USB connections" and try again.
If this still doesn't work then search around here for MTTY. That will allow you to specify the usb connection to the device...amongst other things.

thank you for your time
i have win xp and activesync works nice
the problem is when bootloader starts

When you attempt flashing, do you do it from the device already booted into windows mobile or direct from bootloader?
Which ever way you have tried it, try ther other way.
Not teaching you to suck eggs but just in case you dont know.... To get direct to bootloader hold camera button and soft reset with stylus whilst holding camera button down and the tri colour screen should appear.
With device at the bootloader screen, Can you confirm that you hear the windows "noise" when you unplug and re plug the USB cable just as you would when plugging and unplugging the device normally. This will determine if the device has connection at the bootlaoder stage.

why not just flash using the microsd card. its much easier that way

yes it has connection
the thing is that i have already flashed as i told before with dutty's v4
now i can't

Usually Error 260's are related to the USB port functionality ( Port can't be opened etc).
The SD card method or MTTY should sort you out.

thx again
hope it works

at least the sd trick worked!!!!
now running on winmob 6.1

Glad to hear you sorted it.

almost
i cannot use my sd card cause i have to have it formated in order to put a new rom in

disable USB connections in ActiveSync and flash.

This Link gives a list of eror codes for Hermes, and probably the same for Kaiser.
It's likely that you have a USB port error - maybe try changing the USB port you use or a different sync cable - or just stick to SD card flashing in the future - I keep an old 1gig card for this.

this IS the problem...i cannot flash...
it stays in the bootloader with the message i wrote

OHHH lord dutty we need your new rom

HardSPL problems

I finally got connect between my HTC Touch Pro and OSX (parallels + Activesync)
I am trying to run RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3 and everything goes well, but when it trys to connect to the device to start the mod, i get Error [202] Connection. I have tried enabling/disabling Advaned Network Funtionality in Connection settings, but that did not help. I have tried manually going into bootloader (when the transfer is about to start, I hold VolDown, and reset, and wait for Bootloader to go into USB mode). That didn't work for me.
My question(s) are, how can I get the HardSPL running, or how can I get my deviced flashed in general (SD method didn't work)
AND: My version in HARDSPL is stated to be 1.95.502.5. Is it OK if I downgrade to 1.90.1.3 in order to allow custom ROMs?
Thanks in advance.

Parallels doesn't play nice with the USB bridge.
Try boot-camp (works for me).

I crashed my first Kaiser, flashing with Parallels. Couldn't recover it after the usb connection cut out mid flash. I sent it in for warranty exchange, telling them it crashed while doing an " official " rom update. luckily no one looked too close and they sent me a replacement.
Now I only use Bootcamp and xp. And after more flashes than I can count, I have never had a problem.

windows 7 and windows mobile device center

Hi
Just for the fellas having problems when upgrading to a custom or signed ROM on the HTC FUZE on a computer with windows 7 and windows mobile device center.
you MUST be online at the time of installing a new rom
so the windows update downloads the " qualcomm cdma technologies msm" driver that recognizes your FUZE when windows mobile " is not present ".

I don't think I was connected when I did mine.
And that was flashing the Energy rom onto my Fuze.
I can't remember 100%, but I'm ~80% sure I wasn't. Maybe I just got lucky?
EDIT: Though that wasn't the first time I'd flashed. Maybe that was the differentiating factor.

i'm guessing this is the first time you're flashing for W7, the phone goes to bootloader mode and requires drivers that can be gained from Windows Update... after the first time, if you flash again using the same USB port, you'll be fine... using another USB port requires installing drivers again but you'll have the drivers saved in the windows folder

Is there some trick to get customruu.exe working?
Also i have problem syncing, i can only get it working if i disable fast data syncing.
I'm running latest energyrom and win7 ultimate x64 rtm

yeah, i think thats the difference, i was using a tmobile MDA with WM 5 like 2 years ago, and used to install custom roms but back in the time i had dsl so i never had a problem doing it.
so, BTW, how fast is the Energy rom?
the one i have looks nice but i feel is very slow

i wonder if there is an offline mode to do this?, without an internet connection.

not that i know, but i have win7 32 bits version, so maybe its has something to do with the 64 version

It could be that there are no 64bit drivers for the phone available. I use Win7 x32 and it is a hassle getting it first sync'd up. What I normally do is just put the phone in bootloader mode before plugging in the USB cable. That way it only downloads the drivers it needs the first time.
Usually takes me a few resets of the PC and a couple Mobile Device Center restarts to get it to start ticking. Perhaps try downloading the latest Mobile Device Center, even if yours is the latest... just install over the existing installation. That's worked for me a few times.
Is it your first time flashing? Is it a newer Fuze? Because the latest Fuze's have a newer bootloader that is 1.95 (vs 1.90). I haven't found a way around it yet unless perhaps flash an official AT&T rom that has the 1.90 bootloader that may downgrade it... then HardSPL.

Just to add, windows 7 64bit here and haven't noticed one difference or problem with anything.

Nah, had my raphael a long time, have flashed a couple of roms before, i'll try to put it in bootloader mode and let it install the driver, i'll keep searching for a customruu that works for 7 x64, Thanks for the reply

i got syncing working, uninstalled the driver for the mobile remote adapter, and let it download a new one from windows uppdate, and now it works, stange since it's the same driver as before...

I was having the same problem with windows 7 x64 and the fuze... found my solution elsewhere so i thought i'd post it here in case someone checks here first like me... I needed to install Windows Mobile Device Center to get the driver to work correctly with an active sync connection =)

I have W7 ultimate x64 and I can't flash either. But I don't mind. I just put the .nbh on the memory card, start up customRUU and it puts my phone in boot loader itself then installs the ROM off th ememory card.

even there's already a WMDC on win7, I tried to download it again from brothersoft, then it's update the driver..... done!
btw I'm using win7 x86, so I haven't tried on x64...

Accent color for WP7 tango for HTC

Hi. I was wondering, is there any way I could get custom accent colors for tiles on my HTC 1st. generation device? It is interop unlocked, couldn't get it fully unlocked :/ I tried deploying some .xap files like WP7 Root tools and Advanced config, but I get this error when deploying a .xap, Error - 0x81030120. Current accent colors are a little bit boring, so... I am new when it comes to this :/ Thanks.

You dont want to flash custom rom?

I do want, but whenever I try to, I get to some step and it says that my phone isn't connected to computer when it clearly is. Can you give me a link to mango ROM's [fully unlocked, right?] for HTC 7 Trophy? I can't do HSPL/RSPL for the reason mentioned above.

You should be able to flash HSPL and then custom rom to your 1st gen HTC device. If you follow all steps correctly it should not be a problem. You entered manually to bootloader and you have installed WMDC to your PC (Windows Mobile Device Center)?
I suggest you go back to http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=812 the Trophy section, find out where you made a mistake and try to get HSPL installed. When that is done you can flash fully unlocked custom rom.

for some reason, it's not working, I follow all these steps and I get an error when i try to HSPL in bootloader, but I get no "USB" word at the white area below on screen :/ And, I get this message in HSPL tool: I tried to reboot it, and yes, I have WMDC installed. But even on WMDC it states that my phone is not connected I can easily connect my phone to computer, but only when it's not in bootloader, and everything works, zune, app deployment..
[Error Description]:
Please make sure that your device connected to computer.
also make sure that right drivers are installed (they comes with WMDC / AS usually)
Try to connect device to different USB port and also you can try to reboot PC.
[Info]: USBWorkRSPL.cpp (184)
I even tried RSPL, but no results that device is connected to computer

For me this seems like a problem on your PC side. Im not a guru or anything, but what I would try to do is:
1. Uninstall WMDC and Zune
2. Run CCleaner or similar cleanup utility to remove crap thats left behind.
3. Download new packages to re-install WMDC and Zune.
4. Use another USB port and remove all other USB devices (I remember sometimes even usb mouse on a laptop has caused irratic behaviour)
5. Use different USB-cable
6. If you have messed around with your USB-port settings at somepoint (maybe when doing something else) these would need to be restored to default.
7. Try to get connection again.
If these steps would not work, I would try to flash using another computer, friends, mothers, etc... I would questimate that the problem has to be on your PC side as you cant establish connection. This would be naturally confirmed by testing to flash on other system.
Edit: Also, could your firewall be blocking the connection?

Installing usb driver

I'm unable to connect my phone to my computer via usb. I've tried downloading the latest driver direct from samsung, and I've tried using Kies. Every time the driver comes up unknown. I've tried everything I can think of. multiple driver installs and uninstalls. reboots, etc... I cant even do a simple file swap to my computer. Hopefully someone out there has run into this problem and has a solution for me.
Thanks in advance.

What ROM are you running?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app

Non. I'm just running stock. I even factory reset incase that was one of the problems. but it wasn't.
I couldn't put a rom on if i wanted to cause I cant even connect it to the computer to transfer files....

turns out it's the "CDC Serial" driver that wont install. Any ideas on how I might install that driver?

Try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1696822
theshowman "I just used *#7284# and changed back the USB->Modem to USB->PDA and now ADB works."
Worked for me when I was trying to upgrade to stock ICS from GB
edit: when he says "i used" he means, open up the dialer, type exactly what is says * # 7 2 8 4 #
There's a bunch of other "weird" codes like this also. Go google em. I don't know the actual name for them. Saw a list referring to them as "Samsung hack codes."
Try this one for fun. Open Dialer, enter *#0228# , Battery status should pop up.

I actually read that post and already tried it. I've tried just about everything. Even just installed my old vista 32bit on an old drive. Just cause I heard the samsung drivers didn't work well with 64bit. That didn't work either... I'm just about at my wits end

Is there another way to get a stock ICS on my phone? Last time i Rooted was years ago. And i had to connect my phone to the computer. Which isn't possible for me it seems like. Is there a way to put a rom on my phone without the use of a computer?

Like a copy of the OTA download that I can get on my phone and update it from there?
