View Full Version : [UPG][V.1] ELFIN USPL - CID Unlock & flash *ANY* rom to your device [ONLINE]

Hello everybody!
I made up a new version of pof's USPL, which is explicitly for the ELFIN 128/256 MB devices. So now you can flash SPL in step three without bricking your ELFIN, as USPL for ELF used to do.
This version is based on the ELFIN 2.20.0000 SPL and was patched the same way as USPL for ELF.
Download here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/94753943/ELFIN_USPL.rar
It has been tested by various users including myself and was verified to work without any problems.
Even though, I take no responsibility for any damages on your devices.
Thanks to pof for his great work!
If it doesn't work for you right away, follow the instructions in this file to enable RAPI prior to using USPL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=46098&d=1186268099
EDIT:
SOME PEOPLE GIVE THE INSTRUCTION ON MY ELFIN USPL TO CANCEL STEP THREE. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING WHAT THIS STEP IS? WITHOUT THIS STEP, THERE IS NO (!!!!!) SENSE IN ELFIN USPL.
So please stop giving tutorials on things you don't understand.
STEP 3 IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP! RUN IT, DON'T CANCEL.

I received a "corrupt image error" at step 3, i rebooted the device and is working fine like nothing has happened, any clues?
I have this ROM installed:
RUU_Elfin_CHT_OPEN_2.20.753.1B_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_ BLUE_Ship_Reduced.exe
IPL 2.20.0002 and SPL 2.20.0000 both remain unchanged after running elfin-uspl.exe

what is difference from pof's USPL?
as i used it to update my ELFIN without any problem

With pof's ELF USPL you are able to proceed till the end step 2 and then flash the ROM you want. If the ROM is not okay, your device is bricked.
Also, for like 99 percent of our ELFIN users, flashing USPL in step three used to brick the device.
With my USPL, ELFIN users can run step three without bricking the device.
-> Why flash USPL in step 3?
Because only then you will be able to flash any ROM from bootloader, not only from a running OS.
@giants2k
Please make sure your device is RAPI enabled. You can find the necessary files including a manual on how to unlock RAPI here:

Can someone please clarify this for me.
I bought my cellphone from Vietnam, and it is unlocked. It is windows 6 prof, and I am very serious about flashing my baby to 6.1. When I was in Vietnam, I was using VietTel, t-Mobile, and in Mexico using Telcel.
BUT I bricked my iMate Sp3i before, and didn't want(CAN'T afford) to brick another one.
The question would be.
Because it is unlocked. Do I need to CID Unlock my Elfin P3452 before upgrading to 6.1? Thanks in advance.

somemore questions..
after runnig 2 steps successfully in pof's app, if rom update fails then i think it does not brick all the time.. atleast not 99% !!
is SPL temporary updated means after some update again CID is locked?
or it is permanent?

Try with a hard-reset, some users get white screen after hard-reseting the device.
and remove SDHC memory card if you have it.

This version is based on the ELFIN 2.20.0000 SPL and was patched the same way as USPL for ELF.
Does this one work on ELF ? Anyone tried already?
I have an ELF touch with 2.20.0000 SPL, should I use this ELFIN version or use the 1.11 ?

HI dear,
I have an ELFin with IPL 2.20.0002 and SPL 2.20.0000. I have tested the procedure to make a CID unlock cretaed for the ELF and for the ELFIN but they doesn't work on it.
Using the procedure for the ELFin it stop it in the second step at 75% with an imege of a pinguin on the display and a little green note. I have just ENABLE-RAPI the device.
My ELF is brand HTC....does it need to be CID unlock to flash with another rom, right?
There is someone who know the solution to my problem?

my mistake ... IT WORKS!!!
tried for the 5th time... what the heck, new phone, i can always go for a refund.

boot up device, connect to pc, run uspl again. VIOLA, finally success!

Okay, now once and for all:
In step two, your device will be TEMPORARILY CID unlocked. This state only lasts until next reboot. So if you flash a working ROM at that point, all is fine. BUT:
What if the ROM you flash does NOT work? THEN your device is bricked and you can only get it back to life with an official Update of the right manufacturer.
This is what step 3 is for:
In this step your Bootloader will be overwritten by a patched one, so that your device will be PERMANENTLY CID unlocked. That means, you can flash ANY ROM EVEN FROM BOOTLOADER. There is no need to use USPL again for your device, until you overwrite the bootloader (only official updates do that).
The advance of step 3:
--> Your device is like impossible to brick by flashing ROMS, even wrong or defective ones
Now count how many people on this forum already bricked their devices by flashing wrong roms. I no longer give any support for people with bricked devices, who think they are the biggest saying 'I don't need step 3, you too' without knowing what USPL is all about.

hey djvw brother... my bad man.. i was under the impression that the cid is unlocked once so i always run the uspl prog before any flash.. :( sorry dude.. good work.. now i'm going to do the uspl thing right till the end and not worry before every flash :D

Does the above mean that as long as not flashed with official ROM, but only cooked ROMs no need any other CID unlock again in the future ?
I like this slogan;
**CID unlock once & for all**

5th April 2008, 09:47 PM
Yes, you got it right.
leondaphillips
6th April 2008, 02:50 PM
Yes, you got it right.
You must also choose the right SPL unlock for your device
Either ELF or ELFIN
and for the right SPL
2.24.0000, 2.20.0000 or 1.11.0000
So that the SPL unlock will indeed run all the way through as djvw says.

Hi
I have been posting in an other thread about this problem.
I am trying to put a french wM6 on my US Touch. I went through all steps pretty well, I have benn using both Elf USLP from POf and from djvw. I flashed the french rom, it works actually but I did that 3 times with 2 diffrent french Roms and I still have the same problem: when I disconnect my Touch from power (or from USB cradle) it truns of in about 2 minutes which is normal but then it reboots itself. After half an hour, it doesn't turn on any more and I have to reinstall the original Rom.With the last french rom I have installed and after using djvw USPL, I haven't got the impossibility to power on yet, but it still reboots itself over and over. Someone told me that this issue happens because I didn't do a "full flash". Actually, when I check the bootloader, my SPL has changed to 1.something but my IPL is unchanged. Why does everybody else succed to full flash and I don't? What do I have to do to succeed a full flash? Thank you for helping!

11th April 2008, 11:22 PM
djvw, I have an important question --
I have a Rogers Elfin that has SPL/IPL 2.21. You said earlier in this thread that it's safe to flash the 2.20 USPL onto a 2.21.... but it is a lower version. What are the repercussions of this, if any? Will my boot loader now say SPL 2.20 and IPL 2.21?

There are two USPL's...
Here are the links (thanks, AskSaravana - you are a star!)
These are the valid SPL's I tested
P3450 (128/64MB): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320155
P3452 (256/128MB): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1965737
If you have a P3452 You can use the P3450 USPL if you quit at the end of stage 2 but you are better using the P3452 USPL.
If you have the P3450 and it doesnt go through to the grey-white screen then you need to clean the handset down first before reloading certspcs and enablerapi
CLEANING DOWN YOUR PHONE AND RESTARTING WITH NO VENDOR CUSTOMISATIONS
REMEMBER: REMOVE YOUR SIM CARD AND SD CARDS BEFORE DOING THE FOLLOWING
Step 1: Hold Down the Red and Green Call buttons and press the reset.
A message warning you that you are about to format your storage is displayed:
This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press Action to restore manufacturer default or press other keys to cancel.Step 2: Press the centre button (you will see a message saying that the FAT partition is being formatted and the device will reset and load the OS for the first time)
Step 3: Prompt: "Tap the screen to set up your Windows Mobile Based device." - Tap the screen, complete the alignment and set the date and time
Step 4: Tap the next button on the Date and Time Screen
Step 5: Tap "Skip" on the password screen
Step 6: GET READY TO MANUALLY RESET YOUR PHONE avoiding all customisations!!!!!
Step 7: Tap the screen then immediately as the OS loads the today screen a "customising in 3 seconds "OK" dialog is displayed, PRESS RESET before it can take effect - Your phone will reset loaded with a clean ROM with no vendor customisations.
Once you have a clean handset, reload the Cert_SPCS.cab and EnableRapi.cab by copying them to the temp directory on your device and running them CERT_SPCS first. Then once loaded reset your handset again.
You now have a clean device ready to receive the right USPL. Make sure you choose the right one for your handset!!!

I'm having the sticky Penguin problem too. Here's the things I've done:
1. I hard reset, stopped the customization procedure just before it began.
2. I synced with activesync
3. I installed cert cab first and rapi cab second.
4. I soft reset
5. I synced with activesync
6. I ran elfin-uspl
7. Step 1 and Step 2 completed.
8. I got to the penguin and it got stuck there and I never got the gray screen.
9. I tried this 4 times now, 1 in XP and 3 in Vista, I never get past the penguin.
So what could be wrong?

19th April 2008, 11:34 PM
Aaahh... Now I've solved it. I had taken out the SIM card just as a precaution. This time I put in the card and turned on the phone. I started the procedure again and this time I got the gray screen. I don't know if it was a coincidence or not, but I guess the phone must be active for this to work...

And what happens if you've got a call during the whole unlocking???
It is said clearly that nothing should disturb the process!!!
That's why we are adviced to remove the SIM card!
And the "desired" screen is usually white and blank!How did yours was gray?

After I got my screen to go "white" blank, there is a checklist in
"Follow instructions below for pda to update process".
On Part 2, it says "Establish a activesync connection to your pda phone".. And I'm not sure how can i make it the activesync icon go green again.
As I remember during the step1/2/3, the last step specifically says if your pda has a blank screen and the activesync icon to be grey, then continue on.
I tried continuing on with what I had and ended up with "congrajulations" and that was that. However, when I checked the spl, nothing has changed. Any help or suggestions would be great, thank you ><. :o

1st May 2008, 03:17 PM
What was your SPL before?
If you had a different SPL (meaning different than 1.11.0000 or 2.20.0000 , according to which one you used)
and you still see that in bootloader, then the unlocking didn't work.
ps:I think that the only way to find out if your unlocking worked
is following this method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347700) and check the line:
g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = ?
*If ?=0 => Touch=CID_Unlocked => Able to flash any ROM or Radio Update through Bootloader
*If ?=FF => Touch=CID_Locked => Try CID_Unlocking again BEFORE flashing anything

Thanks for replying helper, just to add i had was 2.21 before and its 2.20 now :confused:~
I tried doing the procedure from reinstalling Cert and Rapi and now i'm back to the penguin logo that is stuck at 75% at step 2~ ...
And one more important thing I would like to point out is do you need to hard reset in order the update to work? I mean does it have to be a hard reset? Cuz I dont' want to customize my screen and other things....
Thanks again

So far, I managed to get the white blank screen again, but I'm not so sure if it did work since I cannot establish an activesync w/ my pda. :o
I was wondering if the updating process takes less than a minute to finish because the estimated time is about 10 mins.
Thanks again^^

It worked like a charm!
1st time it said the image was corrupted and restarted the device. 2nd time it completed all steps correctly.
--> Step 3 took less than 30 seconds to complete.
My SPL before was 2.24.000. Now it´s 2.20.0000
Nice work!
ELFIN
IPL: 2.24.0002
SPL: 2.20.0000
Ps. Just a comment: it worked after i hard reseted the device and did the no-customization trick. Pehaps it was just a coincidence who knows...

Hi furiardi and tomsn
htctouchp is mostly right - but I *always* remove the SD Card and SIM card before I do any flashing (mainly because most flashes assume this as a base line and because I read somewhere that you always should).
I put together a list of do's and don't collected from all over the forum and the Wiki on CID unlocking and applying the USPL here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2172421&postcount=4
Following these steps will allow you to apply a USPL to your phone and add ROMs, it also perfectly prepares the phone for SIM unlocking although you may wish to reload CERT_SPCS.cab and EnableRAPI.cab and reset again before you try.

Hi Guys
I have here a ROM with 94,7MB
But when I Try to put this ROM on a locked device with your USPL they give me the error:
For a Unlocked Devices, I have a procedure to RUN the attached SPL before ROM Update.
So, my question is: "Can I merge this SPLs? Can I modify USPL to support up to 128MB ROM? How can I do that?"

Hi there,
I think this is my first message and it just to thank everyone in this forum for all the hard work they are doing to make our phones better.
I have used this USPL without much knowledge on the phone "but after reading a few threads" and now I am just flashing rom after rom and trying them.
Thanks a lot for the cooks as well but I think I will post the thank in their own threads.
Keep up the good work guys

Hi
I have been posting in an other thread about this problem.
I am trying to put a french wM6 on my US Touch. I went through all steps pretty well, I have benn using both Elf USLP from POf and from djvw. I flashed the french rom, it works actually but I did that 3 times with 2 diffrent french Roms and I still have the same problem: when I disconnect my Touch from power (or from USB cradle) it truns of in about 2 minutes which is normal but then it reboots itself. After half an hour, it doesn't turn on any more and I have to reinstall the original Rom.With the last french rom I have installed and after using djvw USPL, I haven't got the impossibility to power on yet, but it still reboots itself over and over. Someone told me that this issue happens because I didn't do a "full flash". Actually, when I check the bootloader, my SPL has changed to 1.something but my IPL is unchanged. Why does everybody else succed to full flash and I don't? What do I have to do to succeed a full flash? Thank you for helping!
Hi a colleague persuaded me that he could flash the rom on my Elf Touch using profs Elf USPL. It turns out my phone is an Elfin ELF030050
T-MOB005. At first the phone did work but it started turning itself off I kept turning it back on until it got to the point when it would only return to the three colour boot loader screen. I have tried boooting various roms via usb and SD card but to no avail & I cant seem to trace an original rom. Has anyone any idea's?:confused::mad:

Hi
Is there any way of amending this to run off an sd card.
My machine has the three colours boot screen and I can't get out of it. I have used Mtty and got my Cid and device id Elf030050 t-mobile005, but haven't got an origninal rom to flash to it nor can I see any prospect of geting one.
Thanks in anticipation of someone smarter than me sorting this out.

current Radio: 03.07.90
IPL: 2.20.0002

remove SIM card and MicroSD card
hard-reset, do clean-device procedure, soft-reset
run Cert_SPCS and EnableRapi, soft-reset
run elfin-uspl.exe
pass step 1 and 2
screen goes white-blank
press enter to follow update wizard,
got ERROR [260]: CONNECTION error, says: the update utility cannot connect to the PDA, make sure the cable/craddle connected properly
soft-reset, windows loaded successfully.
:confused: if it's not connected properly.., the screen will not change by itself isn't it..?
and I've tried this many times already.., same result.
help anyone..??
added:
sometimes.. I got stuck in the pinguin display too.., no white/blank screen.
it just stops there. and need to soft-reset.

Hey guys!
Here are some thoughts concerning d1ete's issue even though I don't use Vista:
1.Did you try another usb cable and/or another usb port?
2.Did you try the process in flight mode?
3.What is your setting for "Allow usb connections"?
4.After hard reseting take the battery out for 1'.
5.Are you ok with the drivers (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723) wanted for vista to run RUU?
Regards!

First of all find your device's DID and CID (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379318)!
Then check if there is any shipped ROM with DID&CID (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379034) that matches yours!
If you find one, then you are lucky because you will have it for recovery purpose in case your device is killed by any accident! (Which is very common for Elves)
Finally , IF YOU HAVE AN ELFIN , try CID unlocking again by following these instructions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2029798&postcount=32), or d/l this file (http://rapidshare.com/files/126617469/USPL.rar) or do whatever (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400987) RaffieKol suggested.

Can someone please clarify this for me.
I bought my cellphone from Vietnam, and it is unlocked. It is windows 6 prof, and I am very serious about flashing my baby to 6.1. When I was in Vietnam, I was using VietTel, t-Mobile, and in Mexico using Telcel.
BUT I bricked my iMate Sp3i before, and didn't want(CAN'T afford) to brick another one.
The question would be.
Because it is unlocked. Do I need to CID Unlock my Elfin P3452 before upgrading to 6.1? Thanks in advance.
Yes you need to cid unlock. sim and cid are two seperate things. after i sim unlocked mine i still had FF on my matty program. be careful there is no offical rom for the mdatouch aka elfin aka efl030050 so if you brick it you out of luck until later this year. when tmobile comes out with a rom

u can not use that ROM, it doesnt match with ur CID. this WWE ROM is for CID DOPOD001. so better not use it as such. although u can try this:
1. extract the ruu_signed.nbh
2. leave the IPL and SPL from the dump, take other parts and recompile them with HTCrt tool.
3. flash the ROM

[QUOTE=djvw;1964159]Hello everybody!
I made up a new version of pof's USPL, which is explicitly for the ELFIN 128/256 MB devices. So now you can flash SPL in step three without bricking your ELFIN, as USPL for ELF used to do.
This version is based on the ELFIN 2.20.0000 SPL and was patched the same way as USPL for ELF.
It has been tested by various users including myself and was verified to work without any problems.
Even though, I take no responsibility for any damages on your devices.
Thanks to pof for his great work!
Hi djvw, thank you for your dedication, everything went perfectly on the 2nd attempt. I got courage from reading ALL the thread. After running mtty I see ''g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = 0'' which is good, and dsxda's device-info returns me with IPL : 2.20.0002 and SPL: 2.20.0000pof same as before beside the pof addition. I take it it's your way to pay tribute to pof ?

What a coincidence ! Of all ppl you answered my post, at the same moment I was considering which Rom will be my first. No doubt it is an omen, so my choice will be Tess ( btw I already read blasev's thread one and a half times... ).
Wish me luck :o

Okay, now once and for all:
This is what step 3 is for:
In this step your Bootloader will be overwritten by a patched one, so that your device will be PERMANENTLY CID unlocked. That means, you can flash ANY ROM EVEN FROM BOOTLOADER. There is no need to use USPL again for your device, until you overwrite the bootloader (only official updates do that).
I found a Rom that recommends installing newer IPL/SPL, how will it affect my newly unlocked Cid ?

I tried to do the uspl in my elfin but step 3 cannot be completed because it does not recognize the connection with windows mobile center.
Please advise me.

Running Sprint HTC Touch
I have tried this on 2 different computers, both XP. Everytime it stops at 15%. I can actually hear the phone make a sound right before it stops at 15% and the device freezes. I have been working on this for about 6 hours. Any advice?
I have put the ELFIN folder on the C drive...hard resetted device..w/o customizations...installed rapi...soft reset, nothing so far has worked.

It's a CDMA phone, these can't be unlocked with software. I think you have to check at a store or something while GSM phones are unlocked by SIM unlock and allow you to jump networks by changing your SIM card.

Hi AskBosk
I believe there's no reason why it shouldn't work, read the instructions from post #3 in the thread I sent you, download and install EnableRapi.Cab (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=92913&d=1213560044) & Cert_SPC.Cab (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=92914&d=1213560044) on your device ( if you went back to your original Rom you have to install them again ) don't forget to remove storage card and sim card, do a soft reset and begin the process, it worked for me after 3 times so don't be afraid to try since you can return to the original Rom ;-)
You can try also Uspl 3.07 or 3.10.
By the way Wizard ServiceTools is for wizard phones and not for Elfin !
Good Luck!

Hello All.
It's true, my phone really dead.
I dont even get to BootLoader, the only thing that i have now is the response sound when you connect a new device to a computer.
the usb pocket pc driver is installed.
still no bootloader screen availabe(black screen)
wen i try to upgrade the rom i am able to connect to the mobile bot i get the Generic locked CID error.
This happened when i tried to upgrade to a 6.1 rom version.
i can connect trougth mtty and the lock status is FF
Here is the question?
once that aperantly the phone is dead, is there a possibility to recover it ?
Gold Card?
Many Thanks, Guys
