[UPG][V.1] ELFIN USPL - CID Unlock & flash *ANY* rom to your device [ONLINE] - Touch GSM ROM Development

Hello everybody!
I made up a new version of pof's USPL, which is explicitly for the ELFIN 128/256 MB devices. So now you can flash SPL in step three without bricking your ELFIN, as USPL for ELF used to do.
This version is based on the ELFIN 2.20.0000 SPL and was patched the same way as USPL for ELF.
Download here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/94753943/ELFIN_USPL.rar
It has been tested by various users including myself and was verified to work without any problems.
Even though, I take no responsibility for any damages on your devices.
Thanks to pof for his great work!
If it doesn't work for you right away, follow the instructions in this file to enable RAPI prior to using USPL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=46098&d=1186268099
EDIT:
SOME PEOPLE GIVE THE INSTRUCTION ON MY ELFIN USPL TO CANCEL STEP THREE. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING WHAT THIS STEP IS? WITHOUT THIS STEP, THERE IS NO (!!!!!) SENSE IN ELFIN USPL.
So please stop giving tutorials on things you don't understand.
STEP 3 IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP! RUN IT, DON'T CANCEL.

good news for elfin users! well i will use this version when i got a chance lol thanks for your great job tho~
btw got you a mirror link: http://www.fs2you.com/files/0bbd31fa-e3ad-11dc-91b6-0014221b798a

i have the same question.

I received a "corrupt image error" at step 3, i rebooted the device and is working fine like nothing has happened, any clues?
I have this ROM installed:
RUU_Elfin_CHT_OPEN_2.20.753.1B_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_BLUE_Ship_Reduced.exe
IPL 2.20.0002 and SPL 2.20.0000 both remain unchanged after running elfin-uspl.exe

what is difference from pof's USPL?
as i used it to update my ELFIN without any problem

With pof's ELF USPL you are able to proceed till the end step 2 and then flash the ROM you want. If the ROM is not okay, your device is bricked.
Also, for like 99 percent of our ELFIN users, flashing USPL in step three used to brick the device.
With my USPL, ELFIN users can run step three without bricking the device.
-> Why flash USPL in step 3?
Because only then you will be able to flash any ROM from bootloader, not only from a running OS.
@giants2k
Please make sure your device is RAPI enabled. You can find the necessary files including a manual on how to unlock RAPI here:

Nice, very nice tool ... no more brick then
Thanks for the work

Can someone please clarify this for me.
I bought my cellphone from Vietnam, and it is unlocked. It is windows 6 prof, and I am very serious about flashing my baby to 6.1. When I was in Vietnam, I was using VietTel, t-Mobile, and in Mexico using Telcel.
BUT I bricked my iMate Sp3i before, and didn't want(CAN'T afford) to brick another one.
The question would be.
Because it is unlocked. Do I need to CID Unlock my Elfin P3452 before upgrading to 6.1? Thanks in advance.

somemore questions..
after runnig 2 steps successfully in pof's app, if rom update fails then i think it does not brick all the time.. atleast not 99% !!
is SPL temporary updated means after some update again CID is locked?
or it is permanent?

Excelent work djvw !! many thanks, I can confirm that works fine, three users in our spanish forum flashed this USPL and it works in all cases... no more white screen to flash roms.....

my problem is that my elfin gets stucks with that stupid penguin and 75% on my pc in step 2... doesnt move ahead at all.. did install the rapi cabs too.. did reset too.. any help or tips or guidance would be really helpful

Try with a hard-reset, some users get white screen after hard-reseting the device.
and remove SDHC memory card if you have it.

Does this one work on ELF ? Anyone tried already?
I have an ELF touch with 2.20.0000 SPL, should I use this ELFIN version or use the 1.11 ?

A little bit difficult for us to understand the link you posted. Is possible to update in english? Thank you in advance!
yes please if this is a way to cid unlock a G4, can someone please translate?
not really a solution
I read the entire post. It is NOT a CID unlock, basically the guy just ran aWizard and ignored the error of CID unlock error. The screen says CID unlock success, but it doesnt really unlock CID. rest explains what roms he used to update his O2 xda. Mostly are in Simplified Chinese ROM. Nothing special or new in that post. Search is still on.
Kensu, thanks for your time!
If you want to install a new ROM then there is no need to unlock CID. This procedure explains a method for updating all components except IPL/SPL on a Wizard. The same procedure and the same tools in the document can be used on a Prophet.
Pay attention to the warnings on the first page though. The procedure is not trivial so make sure you know what you are doing before you actually do it!

Yep! Works well, as long as you try AKU2.x or better for the OS module. It didn't work with i-mate's old 1.2 ROM for JAMin but that just confirms what the article says. Everything else I've tried so far worked.

Hi inshar.
Have you tried with prophet with JAMin_ITA_2130921_21309111_020720_ship ROM ?
Do the settings remain the same as k-jam (ex. OS start address 80040000, HTC logo ?
Thank you

Hello all,
i'm new here and i dont understand something :
following this tutorial can i install on my o2 neo an italian 2.13 rom instead of the english 2.15 i am currently using?
in other words can i "down"date my rom from 2.15 to 2.13?
another question: wich is the best italian rom so far?
i've managed to find only a 2.13 around,are there any newest italian rom around?
thanks
Probably I made something wrong, my device is DEAD!!! I have been severals hours to fix it but no way.
Now I can see the device in boot loader mode (3 colors)
IPL 1.00
SPL 2.15.0001
How can I recover the installation?
You have missmatch in IPL and SPL version.
Your IPL is corresponding to DOC G3, but SPL DOC G4.
This should not be the case. What was your original DOC?
Do you have USB connection when in rainbow screen?
rgds,
fdp24
No, I don't have a USB connection. Tonight I was thinking and I going to try to put the ROM stop at bootloader. Let me try it now. As soon as I have some news I'll post it. Thanks!
I just finish to download the Dopod 818 Pro Rom stop at bootloader fix but now the problem is getting biger, I mean, the battery is empty, so I can not charge the device with the USB or AC cable. I have to find a battery to try with this Rom. Or go to the technical support and try to fix it.
The screen is on and of by it self efvery couple minutes (just for a while)
Finally I got a charged battery from my brothyer and I started to download the mentioned rom, but at 80% stop, I get an error message.
ERROR 326 Invalid Command. This NBF file cannot be used for your PDA Phoen. Please check your NBF.
How could I do? Suggestions???
I made a call phone to the service mantenience and I have a date to try to fix it. I'm affraid they are going to tell me something I don't like to heard, but...
Now I'm going to start a new life without my Prophet for a few days, or at least, hope so.

Hi all..
I have i-mate K-JAM. I need to downgade my phone rom..
thats my specification.
( i'm sure its G4 )
ROM. 2.16.9.1 WWE
RADIO VER. 02.07.10

extremely i need help.
i have "K-JAM_WWE_1010903_106_10110_ship.exe " i don't know how can i upload that rom to my phone..
You can't downgrade to an 1.x rom on a G4. You will brick you're device. Just wondering.... why do you want to downgrade?
indeed the rom you have is already pretty old and crappy why do you want an older crappier rom on there?
because i could not use my phone in this country. Its blocked. if i can downgrade my rom, can i change what i need ?
Thats the why i want to do downgrade..
If i'm wrong pls what can i do..

Downgrading for Upgrading
Dear friends. I recently installed a game named Assassin's Creed on my K Jam. When ever I play this game or other games I get white screen of death after 15 minutes. I want to upgrade my Rom to WM 6.1 for this reason. I have currently WM 5. Now the problem is that my phone is G4. It can't be cid unlocked. I have even used Hard SPL. Soft SPL. Every program from lockiwiz to some cab files. I can't unlock the damn cid. Now what can I do. I have read that there is a rom called CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe. Is this an old rom which I could downgrade to? Can it be downgraded in G4. Please Help! I am in great trouble. The errors I get when upgrading are sometimes This Rom can't be upgraded please hard reset and try again. Error 629 or something. And anohter rom gives a message you mk.mbf file is older so this rom can't be upgraded. Error 600 I think. Thanx in Advance.

Wait for 10 hours and I will be uploading my new and latest ROM.
Do not think about downgrading the G4 device. You will brick you're device
Do these steps to flash the ROM :
This guide is only for G4 device and flash in windows xp. Plz make sure that your device is G4 and has not flashed to hardspl. Check this link
1. Download softspl from here : Link
2. Download any ROM for HTC Wizard : My ROM
3. Extract softspl and The ROM.
4. Go to extracted folder of the ROM and copy nk.nbf file.
5. Go to extracted folder of the softspl and paste the nk.nbf file*.
6. Connect your HTC Wizard and make sure activesync is fully connected.
7. Run START-sSPL.exe from softspl folder.
6. Wait till it ends to 100%.
7. Dos windows closes and ruu will be opened.
8. Take a look on you wizard screen that the screen should be fully white and no active led on top of the device.
9. If step 8 is correct then you continue to flash the ROM. Follow the RUU instruction to flash the ROM.
Note : *nk.nbf and START-sSPL.exe files should be side-by-side.
At unknown percents RUU may hang but you do not afraid or disconnect the device. Wait for some time it will surely complete the flashing.

Your short but precise tutorial was far better than those confusing posts. They have contributed though but it would have been better if they would have catogorized between G4 and G3. Thanx again. And marry christmas to all christians. By the way tomorrow is Muslims' eid. Eid Greetings to all the muslims.

Both the programs 'SoftSPL' and 'HardSPL' are invented by the same very valuable member ' the-equinoxe ' and are posted as Stickies in the G4 forum with clear instructions/heading that its meant for G4 devices.Its strange you cudn't differentiate it as G3 or G4,only if you wud have read it and understood it,instructions are very much crystal clear.Thousands and thousands have benefited from these programs and applications,there's nothing confusing about it.Strange!!!
ksrikanth has simply narrated the same instructions and nothing new,though!
You shud give this credit to the original inventor of these programs,otherwise,there was no other known program to upgrade a G4 device to wm6.He is the 'Angel' in fact.A great service to the wizard community at large,we all will always be thankful to him
And,Thanks for the EID greetings

Dear I was making a mistake. First it didn't tell to copy the nk.nbf file to the soft spl folder in that post as far as I can remember. Secondly I was installing the rom after taking out battery when white screen comes and then trying to install it through bootloader. That was confusing. And the instructions got jumbled up at that time. I mentioned G3 catogrization according to other posts in which bootloader way is instructed but it is only for G3 and not G4. Where as in G4 we have to install rom while the white screen is there and that should also be through the nk.nbf file which we copy from the rom folder to soft spl folder. THis thing was not clearly written in the rest of the posts. This is what I was talking about. As it is my first flashing. So I faced these problems. Anyways this way or that way I got my objective and that is the thing which means to me most. All the people of previous posts as well as this user have contributed so all get credit. Cheers. And best regard.
Placing nk.nbf in the SpftSPL folder is only required while flashing through SoftSPL method,this is a temporary method,you'll always have to use or flash through SoftSPL,but if you apply HardSPL,the phone is Semi-Permanent CID unlocked and remains like this untill you personally don't remove HardSPL.With HardSPL,you just flash and upgrade in Bootloaders like an official stock rom or as in G3,thats the difference in SoftSPL and HardSPL.Yes! a G4 device can be Flashed/upgraded through Bootloaders.BTW,sSPL is a bootloader too
I'll suggest,you reread the SoftSPL sticky again.Regarding instructions in the SoftSPL sticky, I quote:-
"USE AT OWN RISK
How To use?
If you don't know what a G4 safe ROM is, don't even try to upgrade!
WILL NOT WORK IN VISTA
-Unzip SoftSPL.zip
-copy the nk.nbf file from desired G4 safe ROM to the SoftSPL folder
-Fully Connect to ActiveSync
-Run START-sSPL.exe
-the Screen of your Device will turn white, don't panic, this is normal
-SoftSPL will now run the RUU, proceed as usual (the screen of the wizard will stay white during whole process, again don't panic!)
DO NOT PROCEED WITH RUU if the screen isn't WHITE, OR when in bootloader SPL version isn't 2.21.olip"

Buddy. I was talking of that stupid multi colored boot loader. Although I have no problem with the developer or his product. But I want to ask one question. IF things get done with soft SPL then whats the need of Hard SPL. I mean to hell with permanent semi cid unlocking. just relax fool the G4 for sometime get the job done and thats it. Anyways. You win and I loose. Man. They were clear and I was blind. Hhahhahhahah
Ok now here is a problem which I have been facing since I bought my K Jam. Dear. Tell me that can I assign the asterisk button * key to any soft key. Because some games like Assassin's Creed are not recognizing the asterisk key so if by some registry hack will it be possible to re assign that key so that the game may recognize it. OR is there any emulator for games which can assign the control keys?

Which is your device,G3 or G4 ? and which rom is working on it at present.YES! its always possible to revert back to official rom and Bootloaders (IPL/SPL),only the method differs for both the devices.

Your device is already flashed to hardspl so do not flash any official ROM's Or you will surely brick your device. Which is the maker of your wizard?
Short details of hardspl :
ipl 2.21.0001
spl 2.21.olip ( Is known as hardspl )
Follow these steps to remove hardspl:
1. Download Qtek 9100 G4 Main IPl&SPL.zip which is attached below. ( Do no worry, this zip is for all th G4 Device which have 2.21.0001 SPL/IPL )
2. Download softspl from here : Link
3. Extract softspl and the provided zip file.
4. Go to extracted folder of the Qtek 9100 G4 Main IPl&SP and copy nk.nbf file.
5. Go to extracted folder of the softspl and paste the nk.nbf file*.
6. Connect your wizard and make sure your activesync is fully connected.
7. Run START-sSPL.exe from softspl folder.
6. Wait till the dos windows apps ends to 100%.
7. Dos windows closes and ruu will be opens.
8. Take a look on you wizard screen, that the screen should be fully white and no active led on top of the device ( I mean network led, power led, wifi led or bluetooth led).
9. If step 8 is OK then you continue to flash the spl/ipl. Follow the RUU instruction to flash the ROM.
10. It completes in 1 - 2 min. Till then do not disconnect or open any softwares. Keep it mind that, your flashing spl/ipl and if something goes wrong, you will surely brick your device )
11. Now you removed hardspl.
Note : *nk.nbf and START-sSPL.exe files should be side-by-side.
Steps for flashing official ROM:
1. Download the official ROM ( Note the official ROM should be the same maker of your device. I mean, If you have a qtek 9100 then you should download qtek official ROM.
2. Extract the official ROM which you have downloaded.
3. Run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe.
4. Now you can continue to flash the ROM.
5. Thats all, Now you have the official wm5 ROM.
At unknown percents RUU may hang but you do not afraid or disconnect the device. Wait some time it will surely omplete the flashing.
Warning :
* Before flashing, make sure you have ups for the pc.
* Use windows xp.
* Before flashing, make sure you have not running any background software.
If you have any trouble, Plz PM or post here......
Good Luck
Thanking You

Ok,no problem,as your phone is HardSPL,first remove HardSPL,reflash back to official original Bootloaders(IPL/SPL) and then afterwards reflash the official stock rom with which your phone came,its all very easy,just read and follow this link :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342744
And,just don't worry about the old Radio Rom or old IPL/SPL,as its permissible to upgrade by the carrier,just tell them,if they ask,that you upgraded to latest IPL/SPL and Radio Rom,they won't bother.
Its only the Custom Rom and CID unlock they object to,as long as official stock rom is working and G4 devices don't get CID unlocked,it'll show as CID locked,therefore,they have no objection.

T-mobile MDA downgrade Ipl/Spl & WM6 Upgrade Issue

I followed Dr. Puttingham's thread and Yippie's thread to a tee in addition to reading threads in this forum for a good number of hours each day for two weeks. Yesterday, I became brave enough to downgrade my 2.26 Ipl / 2.26 spl; GSM 2.25.11; OS 2.26.10.2 MDA with a goal to upgrade to a custom WM6 rom with touchflo.
* Started with flashing the button rom then cid unlock with lockwiz2b which looked successful no errors but got a 1.xx IPL / 2.26 SPL since I got a 2.26 SPL then
* flashed the wizard love rom then then cid unlock with lockwiz2b which looked successful also but got the same results - a1.xx IPL / 2.26 SPL again then
* flashed the 2.26 T-mobile rom from the Tmobile website then
* flashed NBD 8.3 only to go back to Tmobile's 2.26 rom - DISAPPOINTED after two hours...............
Any assistance would be appreciated without bricking my MDA. Also, I read the thread on how to install a 2.x rom in a cid locked G3, this method appears a little bid complicated and if I need to move forward with this method, would this method work for any WM6 rom with touchflo and if somebody could simplify the method in layman's terms for newbie's like me could understand, please advice.
Let me know if I missed anything in the process.
Thanks, Technobuff
After u do cid unluck and sim unluck and its reboots do a downgrade again to the button rom and ur ipl and spl will change.(u do not have to re-due the onlucking procedure again)
I tried again performing Dr. Puttingham's CID unlocking process in terms of flashing the button rom then the CID unlock process using Lokowiz2b but while I am at the DOS screen trying to CID unlock my MDA it the DOS screen showed unlocking phone........DO NOT DISCONNECT UNTIL THE PHONE REBBOTS.
This process went on for 5 then 10 then past 30 minutes until I gave up. To be on the safe side I turned off the LAPTOP by taking the battery then pulled the USB cable from the PC to the MDA.
What is the typical timeframe for the unit to CID unlock? Why is is it hanging? Am I missing or skipping the process? How can I complete the process?
Any help would ber greatly appreciated by newbies who read threads.
Technobuff
The problem is that you need to have an IPL/SPL of 1.xx before you try to unlock your phone. CID unlocking will not change your SPL which means that you had an IPL of 1.xx and an SPL of 2.26 before you even tried to unlock. You need to reflash the button ROM over and over until your IPL and SPL both show 1.xx and then run lokiwiz.
dont get your point, i have been using shelltool for ages without any problems and quite a lot custom roms. my SLP/IPL is 3.08.

unlock problem
if your device doesn't reboot almost at once after the unlock, it probably didn't work. That is what happened to me. Did you get four lines of File cannot be opened or a similar message? I got that from following the 17 steps carefully. What was wrong for me was unzipping to the root directory of C:/. When I redid it to the desktop and executed from there, no problemo.
Your symptoms sound exactly like mine. I posted a longer thread, somewhere....
LH
Ok i did a little booboo and yesterday was using equinoxe's softspl tool by mistake (didn't notice i had a g3), this causes you to actually end up with the exact same os you had before you flashed.
The best advice I can give: Open the Dr's guide and follow every step closely. (also just found this guide. Its a bit simpler http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=305225)
Once you CID unlock you should be able to use the RUUs to flash.
Make sure everytime you do any of the steps that dr. putt gives to be comepletely synced to activesync.
Also dont forget to load enablerapi.cab on your wizard.
Also you must use the unlock function before the cid unlock function in lokiwiz.
OH also the unlock will work after your ipl drops to 1.xx After you do the unlocks reflash button to drop the spl to 1.xx Then just flash up to a higher IPL/SPL as the Dr states.
If it seems unorganized im sorry =P

Umm I believe the IPL/SPL of 3.08 means your phone is unlocked... so you really shouldnt need to use shell tool. Some correct me if I'm wrong

Just cause you have 3.08 does not mean you are unlocked..you could have upgraded a 2.xx ipl/spl without having downgraded and unlocked first.
thanks. helps me to learn stuff.

right, i installed the latest german t-mobile rom and my device is still locked. the point i made is why the hell does somebody want to downgrade? It doesnt matter if u use the shelltool.

Perhaps they want it actually cid unlocked for resale value...or perhaps they prefer the RUU method of installs vs having to use shelltool.

Vox Update SPL (USPL) 1.16

Hi guys,
I've just implemented a Vox USPL which allows you to flash any Vox ROM updates, i.e. you can flash any *official* ROM even if your phone's model and vendor ID doesn't match. It's confirmed that you can also flash cooked ROMs
This SPL is based on original Vox 1.16 SPL but includes 3 patches:
1) g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = 0 (set 32)
2) Does not check Model & Vendor ID
3) Does not check signature*
(*) code must be formally signed i.e. contain properly-formatted signatures on the right places, however no checking is performed against them.
This means you can flash ANY ROM to your Vox after running USPL on it, no need to pay for CID unlock anymore!
The USPL will *not* help you to SIM unlock your device. You still have to pay for that.
The USPL runs in RAM and is *not* flashed to your device, so there is no risk there. Once it runs you can run any official Vox ROM update utility.
The USPL does *not* permanently CID unlock your phone, like the CID unlocker from imei-check or so.
After you flashed a ROM your phone is again CID locked. Each time you wonna flash a ROM with a different model and/or vendor ID (different from your phone) or a cooked ROM, you must run the USPL again and then flash the ROM.
It's beta and untested and the risk is entirely yours !! Don't blame me if you brick your phone
EDIT:
You can now also flash the USPL allowing you to flash any unsigned (cooked ROM or ROM module, e.g. radio or OS) or signed ROM with any model/vendor ID. The USPL substitutes your SPL until you perform a full ROM update. Consider it as an extra insurance in case something goes wrong with flashing cooked ROMs or any other ROM update !
Instructions:
1. Run the USPL (Vox USPL- CID BYPASS.zip)
2. Run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe (Vox-USPL-RUU.zip)
Have fun,
JockyW
The attachments:
SDA_ApplicationUnlock.zip : application unlocker if u need it
mtty1.42.zip : terminal emulator (not neccessary if u only do ROM updates, but if you wonna play with the bootloader commands you need it)
Vox-USPL-RUU.zip: flash version of USPL (Note: you must first run USPL from "Vox USPL- CID BYPASS.zip" before you can flash it with ROMUpdateUtility.exe from Vox-USPL-RUU.zip !!!)
Vox USPL- CID BYPASS.zip : instructions included
Credits: in particular to pof. This USPL and also the one for Excalibur is based on his USPL for the Elf. See here
I think this is one of the most fantastic news of the century!!!
Finally some cooking can start on this little device.
Thanks again,
Ka.
noob question
what the difference between sim unlock and cid unlock?
This can be found in various threads around here, anyway.
SIM Lock - You can't use a SIM from a different provider than the one who sold you the phone.
CID-Lock - You can't flash your phone with a ROM which hasn't been cooked by your provider (or manufacturer for HTC unbranded phones).
Ka.
jockyw2001 great but make one for htc oxygen pls.
htc s710 - rom
confirm this is working very gd
thanks for all yoru help and support to this fourm

Same here
anyone online right now wanna drop me a line about this... what do I do exactly with the ruu file. Do I place rom image in that folder while runnning update???
so i followed the instructions and executed the cid bypass(installed itsutils and haret). once i get to the end it says use mtty or flash with RUU. so I attempt to flash right after (am I supposed to flash while the screen is black) but its gives me a connections error. I figure its because the phone is off. So I turn it on and update with the RUU again but only make it to 3% before I get a invalid vendor id. Would anyone care to comment on how I can flash this vox to the dopod rom...

To the users who had the same problem as me I am currently flashing my phone and I managed to get past my problem by using the SDA Application unlocker on my vox. I always thought that HTC were already application unlocked. Was going crazy for a while but I guess I should've followed the instructions step-by-step regardless of what I thought.
Big up to jockyw2001(and of course pof for without him alot of us would still be using shipped rom) for this wicked tool.
Cheers

I only got this phone so I could upgrade it for a friend to stop the boot loop. It seems to have fixed that problem so I guess it's better than the other roms. On the other hand I can't stand smartphone's so my suggestion is to ditch your SP and switch to PPC . Also I read before hand that this ROM doesn't include Windows Live Messenger but it is included in the rom. Just thought I'd let u guys know.
input please
Just ran into another problem and would appreciate some input. I understand that USPL only works for one flash...but I wasn't aware that a hard reset counted as a flash. Regardless my device hung at the dopod boot screen after a hard reset. Is this normal after using USPL on a device, and if so does this occur with all devices??? I would hate to give a phone back and have to tell the person that they can't perform a hard reset...

If you flash a full ROM the SPL is overwritten with the one in the ROM (Dopod = 1.19). Nothing to do with USPL. Booting can take a long time after hard reset. Unplug battery and try again.

Thanks, I got it to work eventually...Good to know USPL doesn't effect hard resets, I guess you learn something new everyday.
If I had to take a guess before hand I'd figure a SP would boot faster than a PPC, but I realize now that I'd be wrong...
thanks to all for the help, I can finally return this Vox back to its owner

Hi
I flashed my E650 in French with the swissrom (present on FTP), all works !
an idea to change the logo operator to HTC original ?
thanks
thought I fixed the problem. seems as if after a day it just hangs at the dopod screen. It was working fine everytime I had it. As soon as I give it back it seems to hang. Guess ima just flash it back to the HTC rom, too much hassle for just $20.
why SDA_ApplicationUnlock.zip can't unlock my Orange SPV E650?

This is still a soft SPL? What benefits does this serve over the previous uSPL by jocky?
lol~~~~
tested, both of USPL and hardSPL worked fine.
The hardSPL version is 1.35.0000Cy
Thank you for your great job.

I dont know the change between the SPL 1.16 and 1.34/1.35. The patch
method was strictly the same. This is just for people like me who want
everytime the last release
I see.
Well thanks for your work in patching the new SPL. Hopefully somebody can merge or sticky this thread.
which file should i use for hard SPL? will it work forever means i can update any VOX unofficial ROM without running any SPL later?
It works as long as you don't flash an official ROM. It doesn't really matter which one you use. 1.16 is working perfect on my device, so should these!

1.16 is USPL means software SPL, i also use that to bypass CID and it needs to run everytime whenever you are flashing any ROM.
But my concern is if there is some Hard SPL and i run it on my VOX once, would i need to run USPL/HSPL again whenever i need to flash any ROM or will it work forever so that i can simply flash any ROM without using any SPL further.
If you FLASH uSPL instead of simply patching it through RAM, you will have an SPL that acts HARD until you flash an official ROM as it will overwrite the SPL since it is not a true HardSPL.
Take the same steps to patch uSPL and then instead of flashing your ROM, run FLASH.exe from within the uSPL directory, flash USPL and then flash your unofficial ROM. Patched uSPL will remain on the device and thus it will act as a HardSPL to any unofficial ROM and you will not need to patch SPL every time you flash an unofficial ROM.
Will this USPL allow me to flash an unofficial ROM on my Vox that has got the latest WM6.0 Orange UK ROM on?
Roland
Please help..
Hello, i have an Orange France SPV e650, every time i run sda application unlock thing it says "phone not unlockable" then it says succesfully unlocke, now it wasnt succesfully unlocked cos the flash does not work, stops at 3 percent.... Please help me I really look forward to ROM upgrade.
Thank you,
Sammy
BIG THANKS TO ChiemY
I can't believe how long it took me to solve this riddle lol. Was trying use Vox USPL- CID BYPASS for 1.16 and just took a lucky guess at using the number that seemed to be shown on the bootloader so often being 1.34 . It's my first time playing with WM HTC devices and it seems it will be smooth sailing from now on .
I flash HTC P3400 with Vox USPL and when phone restart that goes in blank screen, now it does not flsh anything, please help

You have successfully bricked your device - may it rest in peace. The SPL is the part of SW that opens the door to other SW loading. If that does no more work you are lost.
