Well I being stupid person that I was loaded Faria's rom without unlocking my G4 it got to 99% and errored saying update error and such. So i did some research finding out that I had to unlock first, now after reaidng some tutorials I see things about uploading the EnableRapi to my 8125 but problem is when I turn it on it only has the rainbow colors I can't get in to the phone and I can't use it..
Could anyone please help me and guide me or paste me a thread on how I can fix this. I've been researching for hours and haven't gotten anywhere. If anyone can please help me itll be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
All you have to do is put your phone in bootloader mode then flash wizard love or the rom that your device was shipped with.
You havent told us what wm5 rom your device originally had on it so we cant help you there but Wizard Love can be found here and here.

i've installed farias o1st wm6 rom on my g4 device using the shelltoll method..
i wanted 2 try nother wm6 rom
do i have 2 go thru the entire unlock process again or just use the shell tool with the new rom
ok
u hav 2 go thru the unlocking CID process again & everytime u want 2 reflash
Cingular 8125 G4
All seems to be working back to normal question though using the shelltools it doesn't display all the information about the phone when I press Get Info, i have a 2.x.0001 but when I press get info it wont show the info on CID or the option below it, but itll allow me to Extract OS, is that okay? or do if I flash it, it won't work?

Unless the person who converted the 80040000-OS.nb to nk.nbf filled in those fields then they will be blank. Dont worry about these details. Flash away.
Good Luck
G4 help
so i tried flashing it I thought it was successful I did the hard reset after I ran the ShellTools. Was I supposed to do anything after the hardreset? Because I though then maybe I can go on to trying Faria's stuff but when I did got to 99% and 302 error occured so now im flashing back to old ROM, any hints? tips? or programs to make the G4 unlocking easier? any or maybe any roms out there you know of that won't mess with the SPL/IPL that I can just load the rom and use it?
Thanks

So you tried to flash Faria's rom to a CID locked G4 then when that didnt work you used shelltool. Following this you tried to flash Faria's rom to your still CID locked G4 and it didnt work again?
I'm a bit confused so I'll start at the beginning again. If you do in fact own a G4 CID locked device then the only way that you can upgrade your OS is to use shelltool, unless you want to pay imei-check to unlock it. Using the RUU method to update a CID locked G4 will produce an error and not finish flashing or it will complete the flashing process but your OS will not have changed.
Shelltool doesnt unlock your device, it will still be CID locked after shelltool completes. Shelltool only updates OS so the chance of bricking your device is minimal. Hope this helps.
to use the PK ROM?
I have searched and searched and not found an answer.
This is an unlocked 7501 from the US. Do I need to use the OliPro Unlocker or something else? Can I just load the ROM directly from a flash card?
Thanks,

Most definitely. Yours is only SIM unlocked. You need to CID unlock with OLIPRO's unlocker.
Thanks..
Used the new 3.0 OliPro unlocker with all 3 steps and had no issues.

No worry mate. Glad that your journey was smooth.
Sorry for the newb question, but what do I get by unlocking it? thanks.
Unlocking enables you to put a new ROM image in place of the factory ROM that is on your unit.
ROM images, such as the PK Dual, can then be uploaded and installed in your Athena/Advantage giving you greatly increased functionality along with integrated updates for your hardware drivers.
While you could manually gather almost all of the updates that a ROM contains and install them yourself, the ROM conveniently packages these together and has been tested to make sure it is stable.
Unlocking using the new OliPro unlocker is a relatively painless and safe process that will open your device to ROM updates while creating a environment that makes it difficult to "brick" the device when you have problems with new ROM loads.
HOWEVER, make damn sure that your carefully read up on the process of readying your device for the unlocker, ALWAYS use the LATEST and CORRECT unlocker for your device and proceed cautiously. IF you aren't comfortable with the unlocker procedure, then DON'T try it. You can literally render your brand new $800 computer unusable with the only choice but to send it to HTC to be RMA'd and get a new one. Believe me, I know!
After the initial unlock procedure, your device becomes practically "bulletproof" for future ROM updates. But during the unlock procedure it IS vulnerable to problems.
Hope this helps!

although u should run the 3 steps on the unlocker,i only ran the 1st and 2nd coz the x7501 is simunlocked from the factory.word of advice,take the proper precautions and read ALOT before doing anything.enjoy!
Cool thanks for the info!

How did you flash the original SPL?
As far as I know there is no JumpSPL or SoftSPL for Raphael yet? Or am I wrong?
[EDIT] Sorry, I've seen how it's possible in the Wiki.
Per the instructions at

problem is i cant flash the hardspl..........so 1 and 1 is 2,he cannot do that
have u tried getting in touch with olipro or cmonex? or with any members of the elite team? my guess is they are the ones with most technical knowledge of the device so ask one of them help.
ofcourse always be nice and polite and patient as those guys have their plates full
thanks ill send them a pm and see if i need to buy a new device.

but its really slow and sticky
any help s
please
thanks

Neon or Niki
Are you sure it is a Nike? If your in the US, it likely to be a Neon.
If, and I mean if, it is unlocked, then you flash whatever ROM that takes your fancy.
Do keep a copy of the original ROM to flash back in case something goes wrong.
Do HardSPL it, ie write protect the bootloader of the phone, to reduce the likelihood of making it a brick.
i am in the uk
is the t mobile version
its the roms im not sure about
also my screen is very slow when the keyboard is showing
and will putting a new rom on it take all the tmobile stuff off.

Provided the phone is unlocked, you can flash any ROM.
Things to do:
1) HardSPL it with 1.22 HardSPL
2) Flash the WM 6.1 ROM from HTC. It updates the radio 1.65.28.25 or 1.65.29.22 depending on version selected, and it gets rid of the T Mobile extras.
3) If all's well, give an alternate ROM a go. There are several in this forum, including mine.
Have fun.

It assumes your phone is still locked. Get a cached copy:

Do have a copy of the original ROM. If phone is not unlocked properly, then these ROM flashes will fail, leaving you with a phone that is not usable. It will need the original ROM from your phone provider (t-mobile) to get it going again.
Hi i also have the same phone, a niki 200 t-mobile, and i have used the super CID unlock on the phone and changed to a lite rom, but i cant seem to get the radio to change?
Dose anyone know how i can do this? My phone is 1.15 hard.
Cheers
im not a newby to flashing ive been through my tytn flashing left and right. i just got my fuze about a month ago and ive been reading evaluating all these roms to see which one would be best for me with the least amount of bugs.
i had no issue unlockin my fuze and by doing that i know i can go straight to flashing. but when i go to flash my fuze it gives me a Error Code 244 Device ID....i have no clue and am completely lost. any help?
I'm not familiar with that error code but do you have Olinex's HardSPL? If not download it and flash it to your Fuze, and then you may flash cooked ROMs.
PRETTY POSITIVE I DO BECAUSE I SIM/SECURITY UNLOCKED MY PHONE ETC...
will it hurt to flash hardspl again even if i already have it on here?
Nope, just do the HardSPL again...
read this: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_RUU_Error_Codes
Even though its for the elf the error codes will be the same
also when u enter boot loader, does the top white bar say "security unlocked?"
be very sure you hardspl properly by holding down bottom volume button and soft reset button at the same time. Top left should be 1.90 olinex. if not, you are not hardspl properly.
im going to just reflash hard spl. i know its flashed bcuz i unlocked the phone and thats part of the process. see what happens then. thanks for all the info
no luck. getting the same error 244 invalid device id

That sounds really, really ominous. This is what error 244 says (thanks for the link, Warjcowski, it's an interesting read):
ERROR 244 (Invalid Model ID):
First reason: Your device is not CID unlocked, and the Model ID of your device does not match the Model ID of the ROM. CID unlock your device by flashing a Hard SPL and then try again, or flash a shipped ROM with the correct Model ID.
Second reason: You have the Hard SPL and are trying to flash a shipped ROM (which is attempting to overwrite the SPL). Flash a ROM that does not contain an SPL, or remove the SPL from this shipped ROM (i.e. use NBHextract.exe to grab all the components then rebuild just the OS.nb with HTC ROM Tool).
Third reason: You have the Hard SPL and are trying to flash an older (usually cooked) ROM. Downgrade to a USPL (different from Hard SPL!) using the 'white screen' method and then flash the ROM again.

That doesn't sound good. It makes me think you don't have hard spl. So I did a little poking around, and found this post from a thread that you started (emphasis mine):

In the first post, you said you had a fuze. You don't have a fuze, you've got a Sprint Touch Pro (unless you got rid of it and got a fuze-excuse me if you did). What ROM did you flash to your Touch Pro (probably Energy ROM, wasn't it?)? I'm afraid that you killed your phone.
excellent detective work Farmer Ted. I was going to go check to see all his posts as well to see what device he really had but you were ahead of me lol
i dont think ive killed my phone. im using it noe to reply. lol. i have not flashed any roms and im attempting. but i own fuze now
when you go into bootloader does it say? 1.90oilnex? i know someone said it before but i just want to make sure you have Hard Spl on there properly.
yes it did before i reflashed hardspl again. and it says it now too.....im sooo lost on what to do

Ok, now I'm really confused. In the first post, you say the phone is fine and you're using it to write the post. Maybe you're joking there-honestly, I don't know. But if it's fine, then why are you lost on what to do? Is the phone bricked, or is it fine? You can get into bootloader (I assume so, since you know that hard spl was flashed)? Then just flash your previous ROM back onto the phone off of an sd card.
im confused because i keep gwtting the same error message when i go to flash the rom

Let's head back to the basics again.
What exactly and completely does it say when you go to the bootloader screen?
What is the model number of the device you are trying to flash?
What carrier do you have?
What ROM are you trying to flash?
What method are you using to flash this ROM?
My bootloader shows the following
Security Unlocked
RAPH110
SPL-1.90.Olinex
MicroP-Raph (LED) v13
MicroP-Raph (KEY) v5
PSOC-Raph STAGE_CVT v0x36
I bought my fuze form a corpoate att store.
I have tmobile and have been using my fuze on the tmobile network for about a month now.
I have tried flashing via usb with actie sync. and when it goes to flash it brings up the percentage bar saying it could take ten minutes and just go straight to 100 percent in like 2 seconds then gives me the error invalid device id.
the rom i was attempting was natv v4 for the fuze. then i tried the elite rom as well. no luck same result
received response
Just flash from your SD card assuming you have one.
