How to flash gene via memory card?

hi, you must place the rom on the sd card and then softrest while holding down the camera button. this will make the phone enter the bootloader and look for a rom on the sd card. i think that roms have to be specially cooked to be flashef in this way

yes it is too easy with a search in this forum so no one bother to reply...i think....

Format SD-Card as FAT32.
rename RUU_Siged.nbh to GENEIMG.nbh, Put GENEIMG.nbh on SD-CARD (root).
Charge your device at 100%!
Insert SD-Card in Gene, press AND HOLD "Camera" button, and do soft-reset.
If you see white screen with "Reading SD content":
Release "Camera" button, wait, and when countdown (start from 10s) in left-bottom corner of screen is appear, press "Power" button. Flashing is begin, and approx. 8 minutes long. After you will see "Success. Press any key". Do soft-reset. Congratulation.

PS: not all the rom can be flash via SD card, if you failed, do it the normal way with USB RUU

One thing more

In normal way by flashing using PC i make this before
1.Olipro's SPL for Old Gene
2. i have now white screen so i can flash the rom otherwise the device will breakdown if i did not jump the spl

SO by sd card there is no need to jump spl or what , explain please

[lypen17]

greate very usefull info thanks

@Zinzar: I have never used JumpSPL trick, right from the time i flashed my first ROM, i flashed the HardSPL and as mine is a New Gene the Olipro method bricked it and then i unbricked it using Orefkov's method. HardSPL is permanently applied and is never needed to apply again. After that you can flash your phone in both way, RUU and SD Card. NO special thing is needed to do. just format the sd card with Fat32, 4096 kb cluster size (the default one), put the RUU_Signed.nbh on sd card and rename it to GENEIMG.nbh, reboot the phone in bootloader mode and it will read the rom file from sd card. After that just follow the onscreen instructions.
I hope i have answered your query coz i dont really got your question.

hi
pls see below details for the same :D

.HOW TO FLASH ROM ON GENE FROM THE SD CARD

1. Rename the .nbh file of your rom of choice to GENEIMG.nbh, drop into the root of your SD card.
2.Poweroff your phone
3.hold the volume down key and while continuing to hold it power on ur phone
4. The Phone will go into the bootloader mode, and will auto detect the rom image from the SD Card and ask if you want to proceed by hitting the power button. Hit the power button and the rom will install
Note : it should take about 10-15 mins (as of now i have not tried this try at ur own risk )
also make sure that ur SD card is Fat32 or format the same to Fat32 & use a smaller memory card the smaller the better
this is as per my experience using the above method on my previous phone ie gene(P3400i)


correct me if im wrong :D
thanks

i exactly did that..... i'm using a 2GB micro SD with an adapter.... it detects, starts, but at the reading second OS stage it fails with the error...........

Also RUU fails for 64bit system (Using Win7 HP x64).... did it on a friends 32bit....

rename the ruu_signed.nbh to GENEIMG.nbh and the flash a custom rom via storage card.

rom upgrading works very fine on win7 64bit.you Just need to use the right drivers for the same.

yes i did rename the file, then formated using fat32, 4096 allocation size.... copy the renamed file, inserted in phone, reset + camera button.... then power befor 10secs........ the process saarts but as i said... fails when it tries to read second OS......... the driver specifies for win7, vista in the guide works only for 32bit systems....
