****, I killed my bootloader

Hi guys, I´m really in trouble, and hope someone can help me !
First of all I make a ppc 2002 CE and Boot copy from my XDA to SD card.
after all, I copied these Files to my computer ! so I have these Files anytime when It needed.
Then I used XDARit to make a copy from my mm2003 file to my sd card.
included also with a nb0 file for my bootloader.
After I flashing from SD Card, i should make a cold reset.
AFter coldreset I haven´t got a bootloader nor anything.
Just a ****ing grey nothing.
Please, I am in really trouble. what can I do, I need your help so much.
Thanx forward,
surreal5
So you copied win ce and boot to sd card, then you copied the files from sd card to pc and then used the sd card for something else?? Personally I keep an sd card with my original rom in a safe place, you cant just copy files to it and expect it to work as it is in some kind of special format. I think you need to go download the tools for sd writing on usb reader/writer, all the tools are available so look around the site and read lots on the subject before actually attempting anything.
Thanx cruisin-thru,
I wil try it !
So it is possible to restore my bootloader with my copy from pc ?
that would be great.
thanx so much

Flashing Radio from SD.. Possible?

i'm on a Mac, so I am wondering if its possible to flash the Radio from the SD or in a way that does NOT involve a computer. the phone is SuperCID and I have successfully flashed the regular ROM a number of times using the OK+PWR+RESET method from an SD card, but now i noticed that i can upgrade my Radio too.
I am trying to flash it with HERM_Radinly_1.54.30.10_CustomRUU and do not have access to a PC.
Pls help.. 'cause the Wiki hasnt yet. Not very Mac friendly, and I dont have Parallels.

If you want to flash rom by SD card. the file should be in .nbh format. also need to rename in HERMIMG.nbh.
You can flash by SD if you're direct use of HERM_Radinly_1.54.30.10_CustomRUU
Shouldn't be a problem.
Open your radio file with winrar and you should see a xxxxxx.nbh file in there - probably about 14MB size. Extract this file to your SD card and rename it to HERMIMG.nbh then flash the same way you did before.
As a tip, I normally make sure the SD card is empty (I usually format it also) before I copy the nbh file to it.

it seemed needn't to make SD card empty. BUT MAKE SURE YOUR SD CARD IS FAT32 FORMAT, it's important.
change name to HERMIMG.nbh and copy it to SD card(just place it to SD Card do not copy to and folders)
i've done this several times.
Card flash zeroes PIM data?
Awesome, exactly the info I was looking for. Just one more question before I go for it. I know as a general rule it's a good idea to back everything up. But just so I know, will flashing the radio wipe out the thing? Or will I not need to load all my data back in?
no it will not wipe anything out.....
just load it and soft reset

hi, you must place the rom on the sd card and then softrest while holding down the camera button. this will make the phone enter the bootloader and look for a rom on the sd card. i think that roms have to be specially cooked to be flashef in this way

yes it is too easy with a search in this forum so no one bother to reply...i think....
Format SD-Card as FAT32.
rename RUU_Siged.nbh to GENEIMG.nbh, Put GENEIMG.nbh on SD-CARD (root).
Charge your device at 100%!
Insert SD-Card in Gene, press AND HOLD "Camera" button, and do soft-reset.
If you see white screen with "Reading SD content":
Release "Camera" button, wait, and when countdown (start from 10s) in left-bottom corner of screen is appear, press "Power" button. Flashing is begin, and approx. 8 minutes long. After you will see "Success. Press any key". Do soft-reset. Congratulation.
PS: not all the rom can be flash via SD card, if you failed, do it the normal way with USB RUU

One thing more
In normal way by flashing using PC i make this before
1.Olipro's SPL for Old Gene
2. i have now white screen so i can flash the rom otherwise the device will breakdown if i did not jump the spl
SO by sd card there is no need to jump spl or what , explain please
greate very usefull info thanks
@Zinzar: I have never used JumpSPL trick, right from the time i flashed my first ROM, i flashed the HardSPL and as mine is a New Gene the Olipro method bricked it and then i unbricked it using Orefkov's method. HardSPL is permanently applied and is never needed to apply again. After that you can flash your phone in both way, RUU and SD Card. NO special thing is needed to do. just format the sd card with Fat32, 4096 kb cluster size (the default one), put the RUU_Signed.nbh on sd card and rename it to GENEIMG.nbh, reboot the phone in bootloader mode and it will read the rom file from sd card. After that just follow the onscreen instructions.
I hope i have answered your query coz i dont really got your question.

How to flash rom on gene from the sd card
hi
pls see below details for the same
.HOW TO FLASH ROM ON GENE FROM THE SD CARD
1. Rename the .nbh file of your rom of choice to GENEIMG.nbh, drop into the root of your SD card.
2.Poweroff your phone
3.hold the volume down key and while continuing to hold it power on ur phone
4. The Phone will go into the bootloader mode, and will auto detect the rom image from the SD Card and ask if you want to proceed by hitting the power button. Hit the power button and the rom will install
Note : it should take about 10-15 mins (as of now i have not tried this try at ur own risk )
also make sure that ur SD card is Fat32 or format the same to Fat32 & use a smaller memory card the smaller the better
this is as per my experience using the above method on my previous phone ie gene(P3400i)
correct me if im wrong
thanks

rename the ruu_signed.nbh to GENEIMG.nbh and the flash a custom rom via storage card.
rom upgrading works very fine on win7 64bit.you Just need to use the right drivers for the same.

SD card Flash for all ROMs-thanks to Twolf.

If I follow this very COOL SD card Flash ROM trick, does that mean I can do this for any ROM without the need to SSPL, HARDSPL? And Also Radio Flashing?
Just my noob experiences on it:
1.) you do not need to SSPL and HARDSPL again any more to flash new ROMS, but you have to do it atleast once, the first time around.
2.) When you flash a new RADIO ROM from the files here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369502 Make sure to delete or rename the nikeimg.nbh on the SD card or else when the RADIO flash aps starts to flash, it will then revert to your image and reflash your phone with that ROM in your SD card instead. If you want to keep that ROM there, then remove the SD card when you flash a new RADIO.

This are just my experiences, it may not work for all. I am not responsible for whatever damages this may cause your device.

Thanks though Twolf for making my life more easier!

PLZ HELP
thank u
Download it again, copy to external sd and install.
If you don't have SD card, (buy one!) use Odin instead. Download Stock Rom, put phone in Download Mode and flash it.
Later on you can root it again and go back to Custom Rom.
