Help Please! Getting error with JumpSPL

[BKsFinest]

Which folder on my device do I have to copy JumpSPL1.94 to?

I have SPL- 1.0.OlifPof, CPLD- 8 (whatever that means?)


I flashed a new Rom after a couple years of having a Dutty Rom (which made me hate my phone) now I like the new rom but my radio doesn't work.

I've spent lots of time reading guides already. Just want to know where to go from here before I change my radio (I have no sound!).


Any help guys?:confused:

I have tried two times to flash the Hard SPL I copied the JumpSPL then ran KaiserCustomRUU. But I keep getting an error and this time it was stuck at 0% and I had to recover. I don't want to brick.

Is there anyone around that can walk me through it?

Should I go back to the stock rom and start over?

As I said before I'm on SPL - 1.0.OliPof. Is that a hard SPL or do I have to JumpSPL then HardSPL?

Just follow the how to flash for noobs guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433835) and follow the HardSPL directions EXACTLY! When HardSPL won't flash for me, it's usually because I didn't follow the instructions exactly (Eg didn't take out my SIM/SD card). Good luck and happy flashing.

Yes I followed it exactly. I followed the Noob Guide exactly and after Kaiser Unlocker, Step 2: Unlock Radio. I have a fuzzy screen after restart.

Damn it! Don't know what the hell to do now that's why I was asking.

[BKsFinest]

Next I hard reset my phone to get passed the fuzzy screen. It went alright til the phone restarted and I got a loud buzzing sound coming out of the back speaker. The phone restarted again with another quieter buzzing sound.

R- 1.70.Olinex


It's allowing me to tap and setup device. Same buzzing noise throughout the whole process.

Thanks DaveTheTytnIIGuy for your input. I appreciate it :).

The rest of you don't all answer at once. :D

It's posts like this one that irritate the long term members of this board. They are not your perosnal tech support, so being pissy about them not responding as soon as you want (even with adding a smiley face) doesn't really get help.

I am a complete noob to this, but after doing a fair amount of research I can try to answer your questions because I had those questions as well and just kept reading until I took a leap of faith. And yes I know information on this site is hard to find. You just have to keep at it and read forum posts on several different ROMs and their issues and you will find commonalities.

Which folder on my device do I have to copy JumpSPL1.94 to?

I always drop mine into the root of the phone file system when it is connected to my PC through USB. Then I use file explorer on the device to navigate to and then run the file.

...I like the new rom but my radio doesn't work. I've spent lots of time reading guides already. Just want to know where to go from here before I change my radio (I have no sound!).

I suggest you go to the radio page which is listed on the Wiki (and so is the suggestion that the issue with your volume is related to the radio):

As I said before I'm on SPL - 1.0.OliPof. Is that a hard SPL or do I have to JumpSPL then HardSPL?

To change SPLs, you always need to stick a Jump SPL on your phone and run it, and then run the update for the specific hard SPL you want. I went for the JumpSPL 1.94 initially and found it didn't work. Stepping back to the original JumpSPL allowed me to follow the directions to a T (including removing the battery, SIM and SD cards, deactivating USB in ActiveSync, etc...).

So it sounds like you went to a 1.0 Hard SPL, and doing so changed your radio to the one you listed. Generally if you are running Windows 6.1 Mobile or Windows Mobile 6.5, then you want to look for a Hard SPL in the 3.X range. Which one is a bit of a "poke and hope" but you should use the version that matches the OS your ROM version is based off on (most Windows Mobile 6.5 versions are based off of the HTC OS version 3.34 which is why I changed my Hard SPL from 3.56 to 3.34).

So might I suggest you get on the SPL version that matches your ROM base OS (the chef should know which one if they haven't already listed it), and then update your radio. You don't need the Jump SPL stuff for the radio or Windows Mobile ROMs.

Good luck and as I said keep reading multiple threads to try and see what others are running into and how they fixed it.

Thanks hotfix. My smiley and comment were more a joke for me to keep it humorous. Because I knew i messed up and there was no point in getting mad. I ended up having to start over.

What you said about the 1.94 JumpSPL was the same issue I had I went to the original and had no issues.

Information here is EXTREMELY hard to sort through. Wiki's and guides link to each other and parts and files are scattered all over the place.

I'm just looking for a stable rom at this point. But it's not really clear cut on this board. Do you know of any cooks who choose Quality over Quantity with their Roms? Meaning they make sure things are fixed before moving on.

ROMs are different from chef to chef but some are created more equal than others. I'm hooked on TPC's Elite series. you've got to understand that not all ROMs work the same on everyone's phone. TPC's v9 is probably the best one i've seen in a while but his v10 incorporated some new parts that caused problems for many. Try his or ultimate x2 if you want stable and fast with lots of extras.

Just make sure you follow the directions in the FAQ and be sure to read their FAQ posts FIRST (TPC's is the post #4 in his thread

[TheRealHotFix]

Off that link I posted, I searched for "cooked" and found a thread of all cooked ROMs. I have personally only been at this for less than a month, but I have been watching which ROMs are being updated and supported by the authors and which haven't.
I think you will find 2-3 to start with there if you simply watch the first page to see which ROMs are getting traffic (and if the feedback is good).

Stable is subjective. What is stable on one phone isn't necessarily stable on another. I was playing with on ROM everyone raved about and eventually ditched it because it kept doing wierd stuff that the authors couldn't reproduce. That and a v9 of a ROM can be very stable and a v10 can go off the deep end.

Right now I am playing with AthineOS (the multimedia version) and am quite pleased.

still should have asked the question in the right thread and waited for an answer instead of starting a new thread, i recommend reading forum rules before starting a new thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=378
