I am a newbie on flashing non-offical roms.. I did look at wiki but it seems my atom life can't go into bootloader mode (camera button + reset). Here are my questions regarding flashing cooked rom by sd card.
1. how to get Atom Life into bootloader mode so it flash the file in SD to the unit? I did tried holding the camera button then push the reset hole, after released the pin (still holding the camera button) the unit boot like normal....
2. can I use 2GB Mini SD or it have to be smaller than 1GB?
3. is the rom file should name AL1.DIO in the SD card?
many thanks
1- Bootloader: Press & hold Record (not Camera) + Reset, release Reset before release Record.
2- Ok to use SD 2G.
3- Must use Flexhex to cut 12 first byte & save as AL1.DIO into SD, put yr SD into yr phone, then enter bootloader to enjoy yr new ROM

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.

then INSTALL HARD SPL V7.....(check out page 116, post 1160 to use the sd card method - I find it safer and have no sync problems unlike usin the pc). Just make sure you have more than 50% battery power if you use the sd card method.
Then you can install your new OS. just unrar/zip the file. sync your phone with active sync and double click on the RUU_Wrapper.exe file... Follow the prompts...
I prefer the sd card method, I find it safer. This is slightly different than installing Hard SPL using the sd card...
1). Format a 2GB or lower sd card fat32. Copy the RUU_signed.nbh onto it and rename to "hermimg.nbh".
2). Insert sd card in phone and go to bootloader (hold power button, OK button above flywheel and reset with stylus. Hold until you get to tri-colour screen).
3). It should recognise the Hermes flash file, just follow the prompts.
YOU NEED TO HAVE HARD SPL'ED YOUR PHONE TO DO THIS.
Happy Flashing & Welcome...
Hello everyone i'm a noob.
i'm tryin to get information about installing a clean version of windows mobile 6.
This PDA was actually traded, so i'm not really familiar when it comes to upgrading or doing a clean installation.
Basically i'm trying to install with the leastt amount of programs included so I can have free space to run my htc faster.
Can someone give me any sort of advice how to flash this phone with a new rom that takes up less space.
THANK YOU For ur time!!!
OK, 1st thing to do is Hard SPL yourr Phone. Get Hard SPL V7 from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
THIS IS A MUST.... It helps if the flash goes bad (but does void any warranty)...
2nd thing to do is go to the wm06 forum and read about the cooked OSes available. These are ALWAYS faster than the carrier roms as the carriers always load up their roms with their own 3rd party apps... If you do want to use a carrier rom but don't want all the bloat they load it with reset before the "customisation" begins after setting up the phone after flashing.
I also prefer to use the sd card method when flashing as I believe its safer than using the pc BUT you need to Hard SPL 1st. To use sd card method to Hard SPL go to post 1160 on page 116 of the above link. Sd card method for oses is slightly different so read that post carefully.
To flash os with sd card (make sure you have >50% battery) -
1). format sd card fat32 and copy the .nbh file of the rom you want to it. Rename to "hermimg.nbh".
2). Put Hermes into bootloader (tri-colour screen) - hold Power, OK button above flywheel and reset with stylus until bootloader comes up.
3). If you formated the sd car fat32 and renamed the flash file properly the Hermes will recognise it and say to hit power button to start flash - hit power button. Wait until it says flash complete then reset with stylus.
Easy as 1, 2 and 3.
Cheers...
thanks alott m8!!!!!!!!
oops another problem they say in that thread i need .NET freamework 2.0.... how do i knw if i have it already??
cuz its 24 megabytes and i cant fit it inside the device memory.
any suggestions would be appreciated...
oh shoot...i didn't format the SD Card instead i just checked if it was fat 32 and it wass
so i ran the exe file SSPL and now its stuck at the tricolour screen so i might just soft reset it
While upgrading to WM 6.5 something goes wrong.
My device did not loaded the new ROM but erased the old one.
If I power on it I see an O2 image.
If I go into bootloader mode (press the two - keys and reset) I see the HP bootloader for about 2-3 minutes (it does not load the new ROM from SD card) and then it display the O2 image.

to go to the new bootloader try press camera and do styles in reset phone will go to bootloader put the room on sd card and try you
I've tried but nothing happens.
I see only the O2 image and do not read anything from SD
Your card might be no good for flashing, i have 3 mem cards, one only works, the smallest one what is 256mb. My kingston 2 gb doesn't flash.
I used this miniSD to install ARIEY HP68XX ULTIMATE 2009 ROM without problem.
Then I tried an update to ARIEY WM6.5 ULTIMATE FINAL and I pressed the wrong buttons and I found myself in this situation.

i download files from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4392044&postcount=1
and the file name is AL1.dio
i think al1.dio file must
"
3. Copy AL1.DIO to card. (See to it that there are no other files in the card)
4. Insert card to memory slot of your device. Press and hold record button (beside the camera button) and reset button ?
"
i am wrong?
HOW TO FLASH THE ROM:
1. You must have at least 70% battery.
2. Use mini-SD card and format it to FAT16 (only use 2GB capacity and below, don't use SDHC card for it will not be recognized)
3. Copy AL1.DIO to card. (See to it that there are no other files in the card)
4. Insert card to memory slot of your device. Press and hold record button (beside the camera button) and reset button simultaneously. Wait until BOOTLOADER mode appears saying "SD CARD DETECTED", release the buttons.
5. Wait till it finishes until the O2 logo and splash screen appear. Follow the on screen steps. HAPPY FLASHING!!!

Maybe you should change your SD card to test it...
AFAIK Not on every SD Card supported to flash via SD Slot...so try it first with different SD brand...
