How to flash Iolite

eeans17 :

If you need to flash your Iolite with Custom Rom here, you will need these steps :

A. FLASH YOUR SPL FIRST WITH HARD SPL
Read from here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=552481

I'll explain here :
1. Download the latest Hard SPL file on first post attachement named :
Iolite-HardSPL_V1_10R2_109HSPL.zip
2. Extract to a folder on your computer.
3. Connect your Iolite to your computer. Make Sure the Active Sync is working between the computer and your Iolite. AND DO NOT DISCONNECT it UNTIL THE WHOLE PROCESS IS DONE
3. The Zip file which you extracted before will contain a file with this name : Iolite-HardSPL_V1_10R2_109HSPL.exe
4. Execute that file
5. If a form come out with two Buttons, choose : FLASH HARD-SPL (Automatic Flash).
6. Follow the on screen instructions (mostly you will answer "NEXT", if not, "YES", or else, "I AGREE" :D)
7. When the process of flashing the Hard SPL is done, your device will reboot automatically.
8. Now, before you proceed to the next step of upgrading to CUSTOM ROM, make sure your Hard-SPL is installed correctly.
Using this method : fully power the device off by long press of power key, then power on while holding the "volume down" key on the left side of the device. keep holding the volume down key until you see tricolour screen which is the bootloader mode, then release it.

If you see three-color screen with below sentences, then congratulations, you have succesfully installed the hard SPL on your Iolite :

IOLI100
SPL-1.09.Olinex
MicroP-Iolite (LED) v5


if not, try to repeat all process.
Don't try to flash any custom ROM before you see the above sentences on your three color-display screen.
if you want to make your device reboot again, just press reset button.


B. INSTALLING CUSTOM ROM ON YOUR IOLITE

Thanks to Billabong_Staff, he has made a good Custom ROM for us, you can download the latest version you want on this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=572713

Steps to install custom ROM :
1. Make sure your device sync again with your computer. DO NOT DISCONNECT UNTIL THE WHOLE PROCESS IS DONE
2. You will need a file with named : CustomRUU.exe
3. Unfortunately, Billabong staff only mention to flash using Micro-SD Card on that thread (of which, is the other way to flash the ROM, U can also use that way to install it).
4. Try to get the file from previous version of the Custom Rom from this link : http://rapidshare.com/files/2906899...mEgA_WM_6.5_Latest_XIP_SYS_21867_0409_WWE.rar
5. When you're done, inside that zip file will contain 2 files, delete the ruu_signed.nbh file, replace with the nbh file you've downloaded on on first step (the one with named : IOLIIMG.nbh), copy this file into one folder with file Custom_RUU.exe, then rename that IOLIIMG.nbh with this name : ruu_signed.nbh. --> Maybe this is not necessary, since the CustomRUU.exe will flash all the nbh file on the same folder with him (I think?) but I like to make it default.
6. Make sure before doing anything, in the folder now contains ONLY THESE 2 files : CustomRUU.exe and ruu_signed.nbh.
7. Execute CustomRUU.exe. Follow on screen instructions. (mostly you will answer "NEXT", if not, "YES", or else, "I AGREE" :D)
8. When You're done and your Iolite's display shows 100%, it will reboot automatically, and will boot the new ROM.
9. Congratulations !!!! Now you have your Custom ROM :)

Problem with Activesync during ROM Flash

Hi everybody,
I cannot burn my rom because during the "Iolite-HardSPL_V1_10R2_109HSPL" program, it occurs an error. Activesync during this operation seems to disconnect.
So the rules: "Make Sure the Active Sync is working between the computer and your Iolite. AND DO NOT DISCONNECT it UNTIL THE WHOLE PROCESS IS DONE" of the guide is not performed.
What is the reason? My serial is SPL-1.09.0000
There are problem with this version?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Best regards.
