[Q] Upgrading & HardSPL problems

[The Aslan]

Hi everyone,

It happened to me a lot of strange things. I tried to upgrade my herald with a rom from Tribulattifather (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884428). The first thing I've done is to install Hardspl. I connected my phone lauched the .exe and it gave me an error by 1%. My phone was freezed with a white screen. I waited a long time and shut it down. From this moment it won't restart and I can only access to the rgb menu:
IPL 1.08.0001
SPL 1.08.0001

When I try to re-install the hardspl or the installer recomended in this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824501) it raised an ERROR [300]: INVALID UPDATE TOOL.

For information I haven't got a SD card and I've done all this by USB cable.

Can enyone tell my how to continue?

Thank you very much,

The Aslan

It seems that nobody can help me? :confused:

So as I saw that nobody answered me I bought a microSD card 2Go.
I tried to create a Gold card (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=417930).
I formated it in FAT32 with a ppc programm installed on an htc TyTn named : storage tools v 2.5.
Did the steps 1-8 sucessfully:

right it's not recognized, i tried that.... on my Dopod C800/Wing/Herald

is this what you did?

1. Plug the MicroSD card to any working windows mobile phone?
2. Sync the working WinMo to PC.
3. do the perl thing psdread, perl typhoonn, psdwrite, and done right?
4. Copy any RRU/MOD/.nbh ROM to the MicroSD and rename it to heraimg.nbh
5. This time what's inside the MicroSD is the heraimg.nbh only

you tried to boot it, ooohhhhh.. it's not working.. just the 3 color screen.

and this the alternative way to solve.

if you downloaded the heradiag.nbh

1. Remove the MicroSD and plug it to card reader, or to your other WinMO.
2. Copy the heradiag.nbh
3. now there are 2 files your heradiag.nbh and your heraimg.nbh
4. plug again your MicroSD to your brick herald/wing/C800.
5. do the bootloader thing
6. there you go, you will be in diagnose mode.
7. select the flash.
8. the rest is yours to understand.

and your done.

--------------

If you successfully unbrick the phone.

download the HardSPL from Tribulattifather.

extract all files, and read the PDF file, do what exactly it says.

Thank you SmaRkieS for your answer.

I couldn't post a reply while I had no time this two last weeks.
What you said me didn't work. I bought a MicroSd card reader and created a goldcard with a french topic. Worked well but I've an error when he cheks the SD contents, blue bar, red message : Invalid certificate. I tried with revskills and other heraimg.nbh but it's always the same error.
Did you know already this problem? how can I go on?

Hi,

Anyone out there knows if we can remove hardspl from bootloader of Wing. Problem is my mobile displays splash screen, then switch offs by itself. Its been quite some time that I have hardspled it and have been using it. But recently I am facing this issue, so I am trying to move to original RUU and try if it works.

So for that anyone knows if we can remove hardspl from bootloader, because I am only able to enter bootloader. Moreover I tried several original roms from Flash Center as well as through SD card as well, but still be SPL version is 4.70.yang. Anyone knows any other alternative.

Also, if anyone has faced similar problem then kindly advice how you resolved.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Pankaj

So, after weeks and weeks searching, reading topcis and trying solutions I've finnaly succeed.

If anyone is interested, here are my steps:
First I read a topic (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343450&page=2) were I found a SPL.nbh in a dutch rom, renamed it in HERAIMG.nbh and with my goldcard flashed it. Then I looked for an original french Herald rom: flashed it. I installed Hardspl (before put the three cabs up on the phone). Finally installed the rom of Tribulattifather.

My herald works fine yet.:D
Thank you for your replies,

Best regards,
The Aslan

Hi The Aslan

i'm having the same problem & same IPL & SPL as yours ,but i'm still stuck in the bootloader for a week & i can't flash any ROM , so can you plz give me IN DETAILS all what you did starting from the GOLD CARD till the ROM you installed .

I need help please it is important.

Best regards,

Hi elnakah,

Here are my steps to unbrick the herald:

First download the dutch rom, take the SPL.nbh out and rename it HERAIMG.nbh. Put it on your goldcard with the heradiag. With the heradiag flash it. ( You will have the IPL at 1.08 and the SPL at 4.1)
Then, do a Hardreset; you can see the message who says : format sucessful or something esle and an image with the logo of htc will appear and desappear very quickly and you will return to the bootloader.(With the heradiag you have the possiblity to format your device in FAT you can do it but it's optional and just to be sure)
Flash an ORGINAL default rom
If it works, install correctly the hardspl.
Flash any rom you want :)


I hope I've helped you,

Regards,

The Aslan
