how do I upgrade G4 Wizard IPL/SPL ?? ive searched around but havent found anything
I changed mine from 02.25.0001 to 02.26.0001 using SoftSPL based on the postscript on this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1537698&postcount=1
Post Script (09th Oct. '07)
As I have mentioned before in this post:
You shouldn't try to update ROM's with IPL/SPL after HARD SPL.
BUT: If you want to update IPL/SPL for G4 after hard SPL, do as following:
-disassemble ROM with IPL/SPL of your liking
Usage: typho5.exe -x nk.nbf
-reassemble the ROM or IPL/SPL with NKnbftool.
Make shure you only use G4 IPL/SPL for your G4, those are the IPL_2 and SPL_2 files created by typho5.exe.
-copy the nk.nbf you just created to SOFT SPL Folder
-start Soft SPL and flash the IPL/SPL.
You will lose the hardSPL though!
I do not remember where I found the 02.26.0001 IPL/SPL
Please check and double check when doing this.
Another user accidentally flashed a prophet IPL/SPL to his wizard and bricked his device.

I have got the Hermes
ipl:1.01 spl:1.06
I have got the olipro's customruu
I have got the WM6 custel rom.
I only want to flash OS.
Steps:
1. put the customruu and nbh(only OS) in the folder
2. Flash the rom using SSPL option
Coz i dont want to change the SPL version, and i think flashing only OS will not brick my device.
Plz confirm this steps.
AND if ill flash the hardsplv7 will i be able to go back to spl 1.06and how? Please tell.
You can return to SPL 1.06 But i wouldnt recommend it, 1.06 is also known as 'the brick maker'. LOL
Seriously flash HardSPL v7 BEFORE you try ANYTHING else.
mrvanx i have read your guide, its awesome.
But if at all i need it for warranty reasons, can i get it back(IPL and SPL).
Thanks
YES, relax dude.
get flashing
Thanks really appreciate your help.
And to say another thing my company (imate) hasn't released any official ROM for my phone, i have checked the wiki there are roms similar from which i can extract the IPL and SPL and OS which i will need maybe in future.
And i have read that to change the IPL and SPL i need to make a .nbh containing only IPL and SPL and flash it using SSPL option of custom ruu, am I right on this.
Thanks
Yes the procedure is:
Split the .nbh (from an imate ROM...or ANY with IPL and SPL that you want)
into the component .nb files using duttys NBH tool (v1.1 i think).
Then rebuild a new .nbh using ONLY the IPL and SPL bits.
Then flash it with customRUU and (yes correct) select the force SSPL option.
Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much i think you have helped me alot.
Thanks again, for being so freindly.
Alright, I have a cid/sim locked tmobile MDA G4. I originally used the soft spl to install the latest TNT. I installed it and everything was working great and then I noticed the Hard SPL. I went and installed that... Problem is that now that I put that on there anytime I try to flash back to one of the base roms like the tmobile or wizard love it gives me a crazy error. It tells me error 300, not supported or something to that effect. Any ideas? I want to get a clean rom before I try to go to anything else when a newer version comes out...

You shouldn't try to update ROM's with IPL/SPL after HARD SPL.
Reverting to a "clean ROM" is not necessary because old one will be erased during upgrade.
If you want to update IPL/SPL for G4 after hard SPL, do as following:
-disassemble ROM with IPL/SPL of your liking
Usage: typho5.exe -x nk.nbf
-reassemble the ROM or IPL/SPL with NKnbftool.
Make shure you only use G4 IPL/SPL for your G4, those are the IPL_2 and SPL_2 files created by typho5.exe.
-copy the nk.nbf you just created to SOFT SPL
-start Soft SPL and flash the IPL/SPL.
You will lose the hardSPL though!
tupho5.exe
could someone post a link for typho5.exe?
use WST for the same purpose as you don't need command line instructions.
If you're still interested in typho5.exe then install WST and look for it in the program's folder...

The all do, but if you use the "new" way to upgrade (this is the method used by every recent ROM) you need to change your SPL first.
You do that temporarily with JumpSPL/SoftSPL or semi-permanent with HardSPL.
Take a look at some Sticky topics and the WIKI pages, it will clear things a bit before you dive into the deep unknown...
One point, your device is a G4, make sure you use the G4 HardSPL/SoftSPL.
need them..
I`ve tried to use netrunnerAT spl 1.1600 but nothing - hardspl left...
do you have read the thread carefully?
you need to start jumpspl on your phone and then you can overwrite a hardspl.
Hallo. Can I go back to my previous SPL/IPL??I unfortunate upgreated my G4, WIZA 200 to 3.08..I have no idea how to go back or just make 2,25, 2,26..for instance. It was: IPL 2.21.2.126 SPL 2.21.0001.AND IT IS still CID-locked!!!! PLEASE HELP.
Read this closely to be sure, but this is how people remove HardSPL by using SoftSPL to flash their original IPL/SPL over the HardSPL. I think this is what you are looking for.
