Have you tried this yet? [solution] G4 SoftSPL Flash any ROM to CID locked G4 [UPDATED]
You should be able to use SoftSPL with Vista without much of a problem HOWEVER, it is reccomended you use a computer with XP because should the update fail, Vista cannot communicate with the phone in tri-color mode(bootloader).
it says
it says will not work on vista...
I do not know what ancient version of shelltools you use or what strange ROM you try to flash... I used shelltools multiple times without problems (faria real thing, crossbow reloaded, pandora. xda mobile, wrcx. tnt and others, sometimes in several versions). All these were custom WM6 ROMs.
Mirek
yea
i have been using shell tool for the pass couple of months im tired of the precautions taken with it and if gives you headaches when you reflash
I do this when using shelltools:
1. I flash my provider's ROM
2. I use the CAB files acccompanying shelltools (cert...cab, enablerapi.cab)
3. I restart Wizard
4. Again point 2.
5. I flash the ROM I want with shelltools
6. If the ST do not end, I cut it after 30 minutes (all will be ok)
If anything goes wrong (it happened only once) I flash my providrer's ROM and repeat.
As far as I understand it is *impossible* to brick the Wizard with shelltools. So complete safety.
Mirek
i tried shelltool on a xp machine and im still getting custom rom error any help will be appreciated please
No idea. Maybe try to get another version of shelltools... Maybe the one you use is wrong...
And what ROM do you try to flash?
Mirek
after ur post i downloaded shell tool from another location and im still getting the same comment i even tried another rom "wizard love "
The picture is ok, I guess you misunderstood how the ST works...
a) Press "Extract OS".
b) After the OS is extracted, the button "Flash OS" will be allowed. Press it.
c) Then it will flash.
Mirek
mirekluza thanks alot man im officially now on WM6 "tnt 5 "
NOTE : for every one using windows VISTA when u click flash OS the app will be "waiting for response " Don`t panic just wait for 45 min and unplug the usb and make a hard reset it will work fine after the rest
theres many roms you can flash...all you have to do is just be patient and not to get eiger while flashing alot of people misunderstand when you enableRapi Reboot your Phone.
i just flashed a new rom just follow the basic intructions given plz dont leave the detail parts out
Using Shelltool on Vista
As mentioned previously, when you run Shelltool on Vista it generally won't ever return and tell you it's finished! However, you can actually tell when it's done for sure, rather than just waiting a certain amount of time.
When you're ready to start Shelltool, that is, you've enabled RAPI, rebooted your Wizard, and connected it to your system, open File Explorer on your desktop at the top level ("Computer") and open Pocket_PC (or whatever you've named your Wizard). Go to the root folder of the Wizard and just leave the Explorer window open. (Note: you have to have the explorer window open BEFORE you start to flash, or you won't be able to open your Pocket_PC folders.)
Start Shelltool as instructed and start the flash process. Now go back to the explorer window and refresh it. You'll see a file called "itsutils.log" in the top level folder of the Wizard. Open the file, and you'll see the detailed logging of each block that Shelltool writes. The logging for each block is five or six lines long (I don't have an example right now.) Regardless, the OS is 0x38e0000 (hexadecimal) blocks long. When the log file reaches block 38e0000 it starts spewing error messages with that block number over and over again. (Note: you have to close the file and reopen it to get it to update. So, it it's not yet reached block 38e0000, just close it and wait a little longer.)
When it starts doing that, the flashing process is done!
It seems that, at least on Vista, Shelltool is not looking for the end of the data file correctly, so it tries to write block 38e0000 over and over again, but, since there is no block 38e0000, it just logs an error message.
At this point, if you disconnect the USB cable, Shelltool will THEN issue an "end" message. Hard reset as instructed.
I should point out that one of the problems with Shelltool is that you can ONLY flash the OS, not the extended ROM, radio, splash screen, etc. That makes it sorta limiting.

New thread. I'm sure the answer is out there buried in the 68+ pages on the ROM flashes...
I flashed with the current
Titan Unlocker,
It then resets into the rainbow screen.
The HARD_SPL wouldn't flash
so I went to the dcd_titan_2.1.0_vzw.exe and flashed that.
Then I upgraded the radio to the current version titan_radio_3.27.00.exe
My device gets all the way to the OS and is fine... As long as it is hooked to the USB.
If I unplug it, the device starts rebooting itself.
when i get the OS up should I try and install the HARD_SPL?
Directions for updating the flash and ROM and getting GPS enabled are scattered about 10 threads over 2 sites. It's confusing even for experienced users.
I remember reading that someone had a similar experience. They said the problem was caused by not using the unlocker. When you flashed the new 2.40 unlocker, did it run a batch file (did the command window come up), or did you just flash a .nbh file to the device? The batch file is the right way to go, and at least one of the new unlocker versions is an executable file that runs the batch file for you. That's the way to go.
You can put the device into bootloader mode by holding down the power & camera buttons and then resetting w/ stylus. Then connect via USB and try to flash the new bootloader again.
problem is that you need to flash the unlocker, which it sounds like you haven't done.
there is a Titanunlocker.bat file that you have to run and follow all the directions carefully! Once that is done you'll have the new hard SPL and the reboots will cease. I had the same prob, and yes the answer was in the 68+ pages... but now you and others don't have to search for it.
THE KEY IS TO CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS WHEN YOU RUN THE titanunlocker.bat FILE! YOU CAN'T JUST FLASH IT COLD LIKE YOU CAN A ROM!
I had EXACTLY the same issue you're having right now.
I cannot recall exactly which thread it was, but I found a different HardSPL flash from PPCGeek forum. (they're samething, just differently packaged)
When I used that, flash went through without any problem. Try search for the PPCGeek forum.
And good luck.
installing the newest unlocker worked for me as well. weird thing is it would only reset once i unplugged the usb cable <shrug>.
Oh well its been up for 10 min now ....unplugged that is.
Thanks to everyone for helping out.
btw, the recent unlocker is listed right there in the stickies. However do not grab the one from "flashing for dummies". that is the 1.20
I think my Mogul is bricked after trying the ROM update; after about 7% update Vista kicked off the USB connection and I'm left with a tri-color screen. When I try to reinstall the ROM I get an Error 328 message - Invalid Command. Any help? Thanks!
Definitely not bricked if you can get to the tricolor screen.. which rom exactly were you flashing and what have you flashed so far (unlocker, etc)?
Have you tried updating from the microsd card? That solved a similar problem for me.

What steps have you taken so far? That might help others figure out your problem(I would help but I'm leaving my computer right now)
Just tried to re-cradle and reinstall the update - ROM 3.35.651.2 from HTC's website, and I get the message Invalid Command and it stops the update. Can I run this from the MicroSD card as suggested? Any help very much appreciated!
I have no access to anything on the phone BTW - just the screen and nothing else. The screen has four horizontal stripes - Red, Green, Blue and White. In the red stripe it says TITA100 MFG, SPL-2.03.1000, CPLD-9, and at the top of the screen RUUNBH....
Run Olipros 2.40 bootloader. Than, go back and flash the 3.35. I'm pretty sure you need the 2.40 to load the new ROMs. Yes, just run Olipro's 2.40 while you are in the tri-color screen. Also, make sure you have more than 50% battery life left.
Where do I get the bootloader and how do I run it? Sorry to sound dense, but this is new to me. I have the concept of running the bootload mode - Camera, Power, Reset, so I assume some software needs to be loaded on the MicroSD card? Thanks!
You know, it's fine if you're new to this....everyone starts somewhere...and it's good to see new faces in the community...
But what I don't get is why people insist on just flashing right away without reading and researching. Then they make posts about thinking their phone is bricked, not even knowing what a bootloader is.
My advice before you do anything else is to take an hour and read. Read about how to flash, read about bootloaders, read everything you can find about updating your phone. Then, try and fix your bootloader.
Your phone isn't bricked. A brick is just that, a brick. NOTHING works, not the bootloader, not the buttons, nothing.

i second this emotion
Actually, although I'm new to this forum I'm not new to computers. I'm not as familiar with the inner workings of a handheld. I assume a bootloader is the software necessary to run the ROM flash from the SD card; when I run in bootloader mode, I do get a very brief "image not found", so I assume it's looking for the ROM image on the card. And I'm tracking down Olipros stuff right now through the forums, as well as the recommended reading. With a little written direction I think I can "unbrick" this phone. I did successfully flash another Mogul from a different computer, so assumed it would be as smooth; guess not. For those with the expertise, I certainly appreciate the advice and patience to teach a novice...
Once you find the required bootloader program, just run it as if you are flashing a ROM. Once you get "Olipro 2.40" on your tri-color screen, you'll know that your getting somewhere. But yes search and search and read. I also downloaded everything I think I would need also, just in case.
OK - so far 've tried running the Olipro Bootloader 2.40, but I get "device not connected." Perhaps I should mention I'm running Vista Home Premium, so no ActiveSynch; my PC has Mobile Device Center. I hear the little chime when I connect the Mogul, but the Olipro software doesn't recognize a connection....
I have done all of my flashes on my Vista Home Premium laptop. Make sure you uncheck "allow USB connection" on WMDC. Also, after every failed attempt, take the battery out of your phone for 3 seconds and then reinstall.
Did you mean check "allow USB connections"? WMDC is attempting to connect, but always fails. I was assuming because it doesn't recognize the PDA...
no he meant uncheck....READ!!
start here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=9927
Thanks; I have an XP machine I'll try; jacking with the WMDC drivers in Vista would take more time than its worth...
Actually Vista should automatically find and install the required drivers for you. It shouldn't take long. It's well worth the time considering what you are getting yourself into.
First, thanks for the assistance all. Status to date: I have connected to my XP machine and still can't connect the Mogul to ActiveSynch. ActiveSynch won't recognize the device in its current state. I've tried running the bootloader program both with the "USB Connection" option in ActiveSynch on and off; when I run the bootloader I get a popup window that says "No device connected", and a query "Would you like to try copying again?" with button options "Yes", "No" or "Cancel." Clicking "Yes" gives me the same popup. Clicking "No" lets the loader proceed, but has no effect on the Mogul except ultimately it brings up a screen showing the percentage complete which remains at 0, and on the PC it brings up the Recovery screens for the ROM update, which have no effect on the Mogul because I assume no connection has been made. I'm obviously misinterpreting some of the steps?
Any way to run the loader from the MicroSD card? I think someone mentioned it before?
Sounds like you still didnt get Olipro 2.40 into your machine, right?
When you boot it (press camera+power+soft reset) which bootloader do you get showing?
If its 1.06 or something like that you need to flash a (manufacturer) stock rom.
If its 1.20 Olipro then you need to flash a customized pre-3.16 rom. (if you need one pm me and I will give you a link to a clean one for your carrier)
Either way you need to get the rom file called xxxx.nbh. Rename it to TITAIMG.nbh. Place that file into the root of a FAT32 formatted sd card. Inster it into your sd card slot and power down and power up the titan. It will automagically read the rom from the card and flash it for you. Same goes for radio nbh files
I need someone to provide me a proper guide that will not lead me to other topics and the files i should use in order to upgrade mu Orange M600 SPV with windows mobile 6.1 and some greek support.
Thanks a lot and sorry if i act like a total brat but i tried everything in the guides and i think its too misleading for a newbie like me.
I use this guide:
1. copy the 3 files from the jumpspl.zip (attached at the bottom of this post )to the
ROOT directory of your Prophet ( NOT NOT NOT inside the windows folder,)
2. UNPLUG/disconnect YOUR DEVICE from PC,
3. Execute the SPL.lnk IN THE DEVICE (use Total Commander recommended or you
will make errors), then you see Prophet in all bright or white screen,
4. Then plug back the USB port ( connect to computer), here, nothing will be seen in the prophet
(make step 5 NOW or you will receive errors and need to do over again),
5. THEN execute the Rom Upgrade Utility (ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G3.exe ( or G4), in the
HardSPL folder that you had downloaded, all activities will only take 2-3 minutes to go,
nothing will be seen in the Prophet screen. if you see unknown device detected (not normal) from PC, you need to repeat the above procedures.....
(P.S. if connection Error, NO PANIC, soft reset OR remove battery for half a minute and try again. )
6. after the flash completed, it will restart automatically.

But the SPL.lnk is not running either using total commander or the file explorer.What to do?
Use "Prophet Tools", there is a link in my signature.
This will allow you to HardSPL. Then, you need to get a ROM. I'd recommend one of gullums Coffie ROMs, as they have multilanguage support. They may not be WM6.1, but as far as I know, there are no WM6.1 Greek ROMs ATM.
I used your tool but after i press the hardspl the screen goes white and then nothing.Also it says error connection 204

deactivated your firewall too.
The screen should go white, as the new SPL does that!
i dont have a firewall
Are you using Windows XP or Vista?
I am using windows Xp,please someone contact me on msn so i can tell you exactly whats going on and maybe help me fix it.It goes to the white screen but then it disconnects for some reason.Please add me to your msn [email protected]
thanks a lot
I wish to publicaly say a thanks to l3v5y for all his great help.
Thanks a lot m8...
Would be quite usefull if you would post your solution here.
I also want to hard SPL my prophet but if i run the prophet tools select G4 and HARD SPL my PDA goes into a white screen and after a short time there is an error on my pc.
So i think i have almost the Same error but my code says ERROR 208 (CANT OPEN FILE)...
Yes i did have the same error.
Download this file and you will be ok:
http://rapidshare.com/files/112210743/HardSPL_G4.zip.html
If you need any more information i ll gladly help you.
That probably means I have the wrong/non existant file in Prophet Tools...
I had the same problem so he will be ok.
I have the same Problem. I tried the "Prohpet Tools" and the "HardSpl" tool (seems to be the same?).
As soon as i'm asked if i want to let jumpspl.exe access my prophet (TC500) and i choose yes the screen is fading to white, the usb-connection is closed and my prophet is doing nothing.
I tried it a few times and also tried another usb-cable and another usb-Port but nothing helped. My os ist xp sp3, firewall and Anti-Virus are disabled.
I tried to download the mentioned file in this thread but it isn't available anymore.
Please help me, this is getting on my nerves.
Thank you

Try lazy tools by Dioxda2
I know, I know: First use the board-search and google...
I did that and I couldn't find anything useful for my issue.
I'm trying to update my HTC Prophet G4 to WM6.1...
I wanted to use SoftSPL and after executing the SPL.lnk the screen turns white as it should, but after that Windows XP doesn't recognize my phone anymore as connected.
I tried different USB-Ports, but the "ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe" keeps telling me "Error 260" which means it couldn't connect to my phone.
I'm really desperate cause I've already tried to upgrade for some days...
So if anyone knows how to fix that plz write =D English and German are okay with me

Thanks for posting, but as I already told you: I did my research...
So I already tried different FlashingTools, like ProphetTools etc.
When I SoftSPL, I get to the whitescreen but i cannot make my pc recognize the phone at my usb-port.
When I enter the 3-Colored-Screen manually it shows the usb-connectivity, but I cannot update the ROM...
There was a way (I cannot remember anymore which way I did it, cause I really tried very often) I entered the 3-Colored-Screen and there was "RUU" written in the right upper corner of the screen. But then again the connectivity doesn't work...
Also tried different usb-ports and cables...
I could say that I'm feeling like a weirdo, cause upgrading a rom seems easy and still makes my day miserable xD
//EDIT:
Didn't see the "Lazy_Tool" at the first glance, but now after trying I still get the same error...
//EDIT2:
Realized that the error-code could be useful^^ --> "Error[260]: Update Error" (Sth like that^^)
I had a similar issue. When your PC reports it cannot connect to the phone - does the phone restarts?

OK, rephrasing: the problem I had with my phone was that while a ROM update was running the phone would restart and I got the same error you did.
It turned out the battery was at fault, after replacing it with a new one - it works great.
If u do as dioxda2 says all should be fine. He is right in saying 260 is a connection error. That means unplugging all usb devices out of ur machine. It also means disabling all other connection software, like my raspberry program that display device screen when active sync'd. I always disable my anti virus and firewall (make sure ur not connected to internet at time).
i always ensure that the flashing tool is on the root drive, not in many folders (so place flash tool direct on ur main hard drive in its folder as uve unzipped) this itself can cuase connection errors. Ensure battery is 50% min too.
Good luck
Ive opened this thread coz many people are finding my tutorial usefull
so here goes and if it helps let me know and give me a thanks
Hi i was new to all this and installed dynamics v2.0 fully unlocked rom the other day and this is how i went about it
download this
RUU_Mozart_Orange_UK_1.24.061.35_Radio_5.50.09.18_22.24.50.09U
http://www8.zippyshare.com/v/48117282/file.html
this is a load your phone back to 1.24
to install it i did this
turn phone off hold down volume down and turn phone on you should go to the bootloader screen then plug in your usb cable to the pc,
then on the white line at the bottom on phone screen should say usb instead of serial but maybe it will need to install some drivers cant remember 100%
when it is ready open that file and click the RomUpdateUtility.exe and follow the steps in that then you will have your phone back to 1.24
next you can follow this post here and download the attachment at the bottom named DFT_XSPL_WP7FG1.rar this what u need for this step
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647
basically this is the install procedure u may need to install active sync (XP) or windows mobile device center (vista and 7) but i did not have to my phone automatically did this
DFT_RSPL_WP7FG1_LAUNCH allows you to load RSPL on the device:
1. Extract ALL files from RAR archive.
2. Run DFT_RSPL_WP7FG1_LAUNCH (with administrative rights to access USB)
3. Mindfully reads information text. Press “Next” button.
4. Reset your device and hold “Volume Down” button during reset to enter OSPL mode.
5. Connect your device to PC via USB cable.
6. Now you may need to install proper USB drivers. They come with Active Sync / Windows Mobile Device Center.
7. Install drivers if required.
8. Make sure device show “USB” at the bottom instead of “Serial”.
9. Press “Next” button in the wizard. It should detect your phone.
10. If you are using WCEUSBHS driver under Windows Vista/7 (for MTTY or MAGLDR TTY for example), you should apply “Windows XP compatible mode” in the properties of EXE file to get connection.
11. After successful connection it should show device codename and allows to choose installed OSPL version.
12. You should look at the screen and select OSPL version in drop down list box. You need do this because it’s not possible to detect installed version via USB.
If your current SPL version doesn't present in the list, you can choose nearest version,
BUT ONLY IF IT HAS SAME FIRST NUMBER!!
Example: You have 4.XX on the device. Do NOT choose 1.XX 2.XX 3.XX.
13. Press “Next”. Wait until comes final page.
14. Read and close window
15. Look at the device – it must reboot to RSPL.
16. If you see RSPLX.Y.Z and “CotullaRSPL” on the screen – the task done! Otherwise, please report in this thread about your problems.
17. Put some feedback in this thread for community and developers.
Installing HSPL
DFT_HSPL_WP7FG1_INSTALL allows you to install HSPL on the device:
1. Launch RSPL on the device like described above.
2. Be sure that you close RSPL wizard window.
3. Run DFT_HSPL_WP7FG1_INSTALL.exe (with administrative rights to access USB)
4. Mindfully reads information text. Press “Next” button.
5. Proper drivers already must be installed in RSPL step.
6. Press “Next” button in the wizard. It should detect your phone.
7. If you are using WCEUSBHS driver under Windows Vista/7 (for MTTY or MAGLDR TTY for example), you should apply “Windows XP compatible mode” in the properties of EXE file to get connection.
8. After successful connection it should show device codename and allows to choose HSPL or OSPL version to install. OSPL means you install stock SPL back.
9. Check device codename, if something wrong turn off computer and run to the nearest forest. Grab some water with yourself.
10. Press “Next”. Wait until comes final page.
11. Device will reboot and start to boot OS.
12. Reset it and enter SPL mode again. Be sure there HSPLX.Y.Z and “CotullaHSPL” appear.
13. Put some feedback in this thread for community and developers.

hi u don't need to worry about mobile device center this never picked up my phone either until I installed the custom rom
Don't ask why I've no idea
So what's happening when you press volume down and power you are seeing the multicolored bootloader screen right?
If so I don't know why the rom won't install for you
Maybe I've heard your firmware is at .707 if so you need y cables and its harder to downgrade your sol
tell me the firmware version please and ill try help u its in settings then about then advance on your phone if I remember
Oh also do not extract the 1.24 from the .rar file run everything from there
This is why ur getting that error I think

you dont need to select a option just load ROMUpdateUtility.exe
ive just downlaoded and reinstalled the rom myself to try see what u mean and i dont get this option
when you go to bootloader screen on your phone and it says usb open the rom file and click ROMUpdateUtility.exe
now dont open active sync or mobile tools as it says on the program information
just click the tick boxes and continue through the process
maybe try download the rom again found this
ERROR [208] : FILE OPEN
ERROR [210] : FILE READ
These error messages indicate that RUU lacks certain important files and cannot continue with the update. Please get the complete RUU package again.
but like i sed i have downloaded the file myself and it is working for me without any problems

Thanks for the help.
My firmware is 2250.21.40600.61,hope I don't need y cables for this version..
I see the multi coloured screen, and once plugged in to my pc it says usb at the bottom..
Strangely the 1.24 rom update works sometimes and not others, can you remember when you do done it, did it tell you want version currently on? because it didn't for me, I pressed next until update screen and was on 0% for bout 6-7 mins, my phone also displayed the same, how long did it take roughly
As regards to the Dynamics rom update.exe ( I opened with no phone attached ) It says welcome to the advanced rom update utility for Htc Mozart below that are, two ruu options.. regular (this is default) and below is custom I was thinking or using logic that I don't think i have hehe.. that the custom would be the option? or leave it
I really appreciate your help on this, I have installed many custom rom on android,but this windows phone grr annoying but I wont give up.

lol np mate ill try help as best i can
right i understand your bit now about the dynamics rom u need to select regular on this part
custom i think would be if u want to edit it or some **** but i have no idea so u use regular mate because this is the actual rom file made but remember u must downgrade and load rspl and hspl onto your phone before doing this step
right my firmware is 2250.21.51301.401 but i dont know if this changes on installation of the downgrade and adding the custom rom like i sed im a complete noob with this myself but all went smoothly for me thats why i made the tutorial
and no mate my phone took about 5-10 mins to install the 1.24 orange rom
have u tried a hard reset first and then see if it helps with the installation
ill search around for your firmware and see if there has been issues
edit..........................................
did a search on the forums and your firmware comes up with nothing :/ did a google and only shows this thread did you type the numbers correctly?
also you mean that the rom update works sometimes and not others?
if it works once it should install it mate np's
When you load you phone into bootloader the multicoloured screen can you please type here what u see mainly the top letters and numbers
