Error while flashing a new ROM

[nicholas_yin]

Hi guys, i downloaded 2 roms here these days but all flashes failed due to the following error. The thing is first the device resets, then a white screen, then this error. Anyone can help me? Thx in advance.

Have you CID unlocked your device?

[nicholas_yin]

100%. I've flashed a few times.

Try flashing the new nosize USPL.

I didn't change from XP to Vista. I'm doing this on XP. But still with no luck. I couldn't flash the RUU_Signed.nbh either and had exactly the same error. After a reset, it just stops at the white screen somehow. damn...

Actually the update utility i used before to flash my mobile may be different from the one i'm currently using now. so i'll try using the same update utility later and post the result. im thinking maybe it's the update utility reason.

Ok. It works now. I removed the sd card and it just works. I know this sounds stupid. But before I 100% had the experience of successfully flashing it without removing sd card in advance.

And finally I kind of have some conclusion. If the sd card is in, the flash process would search for the sd card which is a quite time-consuming process lasting 3-5 minutes somehow on my device. And this causes the flash fail because it may have a timeout value less than that. If the sd card is removed, the search sd card process will end immediately and the device goes to next step very soon.

Just hope i've made this clear and can help some careless guys like me.

And thanks for randythered's kind heart.

No problem, and I feel sucky because I knew this is one of the possibilities and I forgot about it AGAIN! Somebody else had the same problem a few weeks back and I gave him every solution except removing the sim card and SD card. Jeez...!
