Urgent HElp Needed with SPL

[ThePhoenixUK]

Need to flash back my device to the original SPL, I have downloaded it (1.37) as recommended and flashed but the bootloader still displays 1.93 OliNex, but it completed successfully, why ?

Much appreciated guys, need to drop it into Vodafone shortly so they can send it in for a warranty repair to fix the screen fault.

EDIT:

Don't matter, got it sorted, took 4 succesfull attempts to be succesfull though lol

LOL - Glad yu got it sorted.

I presume you flash stock ROM too - Which one?

[ThePhoenixUK]

Flashed the normal stock one, latest official UK release from HTC.

Did not get it repaired anyway, it's out of manufacturing warranty, so not covered, can't claim on my mobile insurance as not accidental damage, so stuck with it at the moment, at least for a month or so, then, somehow, something might happen to it that is covered by the accidental damage, loss or theft coverage :p

Quick question for you Jamie -

I'm about to take the plunge and go for the latest OEM ROM. I want the UK applicable version. Did you use -

RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.0 0.25.05_Ship

or

RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_2.03.401.2_Radio_Signed_Dia mond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship

Also I have previously installed SPL 1.37.OliNex which IIRC is unsigned. Should I upgrade to 1.40 which is the latest I have found and should I use unsigned?

Thanks.

Oh and in advance I'm sorry to hear about your loss ;)

No problem mate, I can deal with the screen for a while, it comes and goes and is not annoying yet lol

2.03.401.2 would be the best release if you want to stick with Official ROM's. As for the SPL it's up to you as the main reason for having the HardSPL is to flash unoficial rom's etc onto the device.

Some unofficial rom's work better with certain SPL's, but as for the official one's I am not sure.

Thanks

Do you recomend flashing from the internal memory as I have read this seems to be the current accepted method.

These are the isntructions I found but I don't seem to be able to extract the .exe. When I run it it wants to perform the update.

Instructions for flashing from internal storage:

Extract the RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_2.03.401.2_Radio_Signed_Dia mond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship.exe file (or whatever one you are wanting to flash) to a new directory on your PC
Find the RUU_signed.nbh file in this new directory and rename it to Diamimg.nbh
Copy Diamimg.nbh to the root of Internal Storage
Hold in the volume down button + the back button (thats the top right button on the front to the right of the big middle jog control) + soft reset
Follow instructions on screen
When the process is complete (it will say UPDATE SUCCESS) then reset

[vrstu]

Cancel that I've sorted the extracting. So internal memory for flash??

[ThePhoenixUK]

Yes, you won't be able to flash 2.03 over activesync, it corrupts the image, copy the nbh to your internal memory, rename to DIAMIMG.nbh, then hold VolumeDown and Back on phone while softreset with stylus, then follow on screen instructions

[vrstu]

Excellent, thanks mate.

Wish me luck :D

[ThePhoenixUK]

Hmm, good luck.... lol

[vrstu]

All done - Thanks for your help.

out of warranty, :eek: that's bullcrap. unless you told them about flashing it. The device only arrived in the UK less then a year ago.

I got mine from HK in May and orange did not start shipping until Jul. so your O2 one would of been later.

I would be on the phone to HTC
