Opal Hard-SPL

[cmonex]

well i made this a while ago, and finally got around to get it fully tested and release it.

this HardSPL is based on version 1.26 SPL. and is version 2 (2.00.cmon). also i *think* this one will not hard reset the phone

it's for any OPAL***** modelid now,
thanks to wlinsong and PhamQuang for testing :D

instructions:

0a) make sure you have .NET framework installed on your PC! if not, get it from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6&DisplayLang=en
0b) if you have vista, WMDC update is recommended: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center.mspx
1) download Hard-SPL package from attachment, extract to an empty folder (Opal_HardSPL_v2_0.zip).
2) you must have the phone synced with your PC, i.e. device must be in Windows Mobile!
3) run Opal_HardSPL_v2.exe.
4) follow steps in the RUU, and check on the device for prompts after PC shows loading bar.
5) device should go to a grey screen
6) go on with RUU, Hard-SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done.
7 ) to confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) and verify the screen shows 2.00.cmon

+1: if the screen won't go to grey mode (SSPL), then try manually entering SSPL by using the Opal-SSPL-Manual.zip - run the EXE on the phone then when it went to grey screen, run the HardSPL exe on PC and flash.


finally, donations are always appreciated to the "To Cmonex" link in my signature


now, enjoy the hardspl and cooked roms :D



UPDATE: How to flash stock SPL back for warranty purposes - please use this only if you need to return device for repair!
steps:
0. first flash entire stock ROM, then after that you can flash stock SPL as *last step*. do not reverse this flashing order please
1. get the RUU_Signed.NBH file from attachment (opalstockspl126.zip (185.3 KB))
2. run hardspl package from attachment (Opal_HardSPL_v2_0.zip)
3. *after* Opal HardSPL EXE extracts files, replace extracted RUU_Signed.NBH with the one from opalstockspl126.zip i.e. when asked to overwrite, say Yes, if it doesn't ask, then you are trying to copy it before running the HardSPL EXE, which is the wrong order.
4. flash just like you flashed HardSPL (see original instructions above)
5. device reboots, you can now check if it says 1.26.0000 or still 1.26.cmon or 2.02.cmon, in the latter case you did something wrong, it has to show 1.26.0000.

Thank for your hard working, but there's new issue occour.

If you have any idea about it, please kindly guide me!!:)

Heihei~~ Just read the guide instruction carefully, I have fixed the problem.
And currently, I flashed a HK Rom code on my device.
However, I found a new issue. The this device has Compatibility with the BT ear price. I'm using a Itech D-Clip Radio one. When the call is coming, the call will be actived.But after the call, the BT connection will disconnect.
Any one has idea about this? Thanks a lot to all. :)

[cmonex]

how do i check modelid?

see bootloader screen (tricolour) it will say OPAL100 or similar... if the number is 100 then ok. if not, post in this thread

EDIT: oops, possibly for opal there is no modelid displayed there (could someone verify - i dont have an opal). use getdevinfo in mtty. but easiest is just try the spl package and if you get modelid error, post.

[ruclip]

Hi cmonex, can you please make a HardSPL for the Touch 3G (Jade).

All phones have an SPL. This allows you to upgrade the ROM on your phone. However the SPL's that the phone comes with only allows you to flash ROMs that match the Carrier ID (CID) on your device, and the ROM image must be digitally signed.

Hard SPL's remove the CID checking and signature checking.

Also they cannot be accidentally removed if flash a new carrier SPL.

So, you can flash Opal ROM's made by any carrier or any of the custom ones you find.

Hope this helps.

Thanks
Dave

[Blackspider]

Thanks for the information it helped a bit to understand about the technical aspects of the viva.
since im new to all this its going to take sometime 2 understand the info completely.

well i bought my phone a week ago, and i live in the middle east. so wen i try to upgrade my rom i only get the arabic on. so could u plz help me out over here and tell me. which one should i do first.

conduct an Hard spl or install the new english rom, and what would be the difference.

Ya one more thing. my fone hangs a lot, i dont knw wt 2 do, how cn we avoid this or stop it and is there any way we can make da fone function faster?

[nkit]

what is your info displayed in tricolour screen?

Hi...cmonex:

My viva also can't HardSPL. It will show error244.
My tricolour screen is show
ONBL 1.27.0000 not OPAL
SPL 1.27.0000

[fulgerul]

Hi Cmonex.

On the back, the text is in chinese. The only info i can read are the IMEI, S/N, P/N.

On the tricolor screen :
ONBL 1.22.0000
SPL 1.22.0000
F256

When i turn on the phone :
ONBL 1.22.0000
SPL 1.22.0000
GSM 03.31.90
OS 1.22.0.0

Waiting for an updated HARD SPL from you which supports this SPL.

Thanks very much

ONBL means onenand bootloader (it's like IPL).

all of you who are getting error 244, are you making sure the device is activesynced when running the hardspl EXE on your PC? what does the bootloader screen look like _when_ you get this error 244? is it a grey screen or tricolour?

Yes, I am sure that the device is activesynced when running the hardspl EXE on PC. And the RUU is show 100%(the VIVA bootloader screen show grery), then RUU show error244, the VIVA is reset.

I really don't know what happen?? My Jade is no this condition.

Same here.

Htc is fully synced with Active Sync. After i start the HARD SPL, the screen is grey and i get the 'INVALID VENDOR ID' error.

At the moment I can't use the phone at it's full potential because the ROM is in Chinese and i don't know the language.

Any upgraded HARD SPL to support the ONBL ? :)

Thanks in advance

Nope sorry dint work for me. Ran the manual one followed by Ruu. Just get a white screen, then activesync is disabled. Have to turn on/off the phone. Mine is SPL 1.22

Would appreciate it if Cmonex could look into this problem. Think a couple others experiencing the same Error 244: Invalid Model ID error as well.

if you have the modelid error, i.e. error 244, then probably your Opal isn't OPAL100 (OPAL10000). for some reason I had that set in the HardSPL file, you can try one I'll attach to this post.

flash it using same process I posted in 1st post for stock SPL flash, with the important difference that the RUU_Signed.NBH you use comes from the attachment in this post (HardSPL126_anyOPAL_Test.zip)

note that some modelid differences mean actual differences, though usually it is fine. but if you are unsure, you can wait for someone else to test :)

great about HSPL :)

as for the italian rom, it is for different modelid again.. (OPAL10000)
you can rebuild the NBH for OPAL***** modelid and that will flash OK. any NBH tool will work for that, if you are unsure, I can explain how to use them. (I would do this myself but my upload bandwidth is too slow to upload such a big ROM right now)

of course I can make a HSPL that only checks first 4 letters ("OPAL" only, and not the numbers) even if there are no wildcards in the NBH, so you don't have to rebuild the italian or any other opal rom. but I don't have the device, so you would need to test that for me before I release it. can we talk on MSN? send me a PM with your MSN acc :)

[niki999]

Hello cmonex,
first of all thanks for your patience,
I think I found the id model, under the battery is written OPAL 120 5v dc, so I tried to change the rom.
Starting from HSPL that you posted on the frirst page, using nbhtool I extract the nb files, then with htc rom tool (model ID OPAL120** and country id 11111111) i rebuild the nbh file, and run HardSpl..... ALL it's ok :) ...
But when I do the same thing with the Italian Rom eappears the error 270 corrupt files ... :mad:
I have some step wrong?
I sent you my msn address by MP

[nkit]

Jade or Viva/Opal???

It is Viva. I used this opal HardSPL for my viva. The RUU show error244.
I also have Jade,and use Jade's HardSPL was OK.

Can you help me to slove this problem??

Hi....
I have already slove this problem. you just need to use nbhtool extract(model ID use OPAL*****)...the nbh file, and use this nbh to run RUU.

exactly as I explained.

new hardspl was tested yesterday (thanks niki999), I'll soon get around to posting it properly packaged.

[gbraux]

Hello,

2 fast questions :

-> Do I loose the currenly installed ROM (the official one) and datas when using the Opal Hard-Spl tool ? I think no, but when I start the tool, I can read "This update will delete all the information on your PDA phone" ... So I am a little scary ... Can sbd gives me a clear answer about it ?

-> Is there a way to fully backup my running rom (official) with ALL MY DATAS (like making an image of it) - So i can restore it anytime ...

Thx,

Guillaume

Hi everybody, im new over here.
I´ve readed the entire thread and decided to update mi rom, following every step that Alant posted, and it worked perfect...but here´s my problem:
-once i got the new rom running, i´ve tried to restore some system settings from a sprite backup file that i made before installing this ROM. When this process is done sprite restarts the system automatically, and it crashes in the first screen ("smart mobility" screen) every time.
Is this a compatibility problem, or simply i just f**ked up??
Is there any solution to this problem??
In the "smart compatibility" screen my parameters are:
ONBL 1.26.0000
SPL 2.00 cmon
GSM 03.29.90
OS 1.27.0.0

to to share something..

i've also got the error invalid model ID etc.. when trying to flash my viva with roms. it turns out it was with the ROMS. i downloaded all the latest ROMS from the front page , but all of them gave me invalid model ID errors or reboots at 2% progress. so i went a bit further back, and the older ROM's worked perfectly.
If anyone is having the same problem. try this rom

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=494460

it worked for me while nothing else would. oh.. you should change the date to something like the year 2000 .. otherwise it will show as expired
cheers.

Hello , When you use this update to HTC , the windows 7 go to Microsoft Download the drivers for HTC

The Driver is :"Pocket PC"

So go to this steps :

2. Use the Utility to update the SPL

If Have error don´t disconnect mobile , wait 5 a 10 minutes to install a driver

If driver now install now execute again a utility

[jagan2]

Hi,

I still have the problem of error 202 connection. forgot to mention that i already have wndows mobile device center 6.1. pls help.

If u have already installed device center then do one thing first enter into bootloader mode in ur device that is pres the reset button then press volume down butoon and hold it till u see a tricolour screen on ur device then plug ur usb cable to device and wait u will see in the tray installing driver that pocketpc usb sync. If the driver installation fails let me know. Once the driver got installed then run the hard spl program thats it!

How to change lock back?now is unlock 2.00comm.

Putting lock back means flashing ur device with spl that was initially in ur device that means u want to restore ur warranty for that first of all u should know what version of rom ur device came with, then u should flash the respective spl.

btw if u often change rom or try new then keep to lock off.

You might have missed some necessary steps ok let me tell you

1. Install active syn if you are using xp, If you are using vista or windows 7 install microsoft device center.

2. Connect your phone let it recognise.

3. If its not recognising then go to mobile device setting (device center) and then connection setting
You can see a option allow connection to one of the following check it.
Then in the dropdown menu select the com port in which you insert your device usb cable.

4. Thats it now it must recognise.

Steps to flash hardspl:

1. Connect your phone.
2. open the rom update utility of hardspl.
3. Follow the onscreen steps.

Thats it :)

Still having problem? You can ask here.

First you can hardspl your device only when your phone is connected and synchronised with pc....if still not working and you get 260 error on ruu try to hard spl your device after removing sdcard and sim card......

second, you can menually go into bootloader by continue pressing the lower part of volume key and press soft reset button.....

Hello
For those of you who are having problems while hardspling your devices...
here's what happened (in short):
i synced viva to pc via usb
run opal hard spl v2.exe & after a few nexts the process started n device rebooted to a white screen. usb connection was lost then and drivers of a new device started installed. before that could complete RUU displayed error. After restart of both pc n device i couldn't get them to sync. So reinstalled the drivers & run spl exe again. this time it went OK and displayed completion status. The second time i think the drivers of the device when in white screen were already present.
I have windows 7 ultimate 64 bit.
Now it says SPL 2.00.cmon
Thanks

you gotta a prett big issue at your hands, dont intend to scare you.
Wat you have to do is install HardSPL, wonder if thats possible through SD card,
Then install a ROM through SD card, from then on I think you could take over yourself.

upgrading means change your rom to a higher version of WM
hardspl is for Unlocking your phone to have other roms
baecause there is no hardspl 1.35 for opal you have to use hardsok 1.26 for offical rom 6.1 (if u changed ur rom)
