double check your USB cable and driver is installed, then check your Phone is ready on Recovery model

got it to work. was the spl and i wasn't in fastboot usb mode(w/white screen) but in recovery mode. But thank you.

do you think its possible to swap the nandroid backup data.img from daldroids rom that i have with the nandroid backup data.img from rogers rom and then flash to device? just because i find the daldroid rom not really customised for rogers 7.2mbps data connection. i could be wrong. Please advise. Thanks.

I'm getting an errorm while trying to restore. any ideas? see below.

You need to upgrade your SPL first~~

thanks mate that did it for me.
However, now I have a different SPL than what the phone came with.
How do I restore the original SPL?

thanks.

Thanks toneytse,

Thanks for the detail instruction, I have successfully backup my ROM. I have one question about the SPL. The shipment one 1.33.0009 while the modded one is 1.33.2004/2005. Does it mean 1.33.2004 is newer, or it is just the same thing just that it is modded to make flashing possible?

Hello! If i backup my rom , will it included the software which downloaded from market?

thanks
