i just got a startek ph off ebay and after 2 wks wait came in the mail without the usb cable, i am trying to get into bootloader mode to flash it with sd card and cant figure out after searching like crazy how to get it into bootloader mode.
here is what i have done.
1. got the micro sd card formated to fat32/512bytes
2. copied the STARIMG.nbh on the card
3. started the ph
4. held both the single biuttons on the side of the flip top and it wont do squat.
i read the instructions. but cant figure out the record button, which one is it... off the 4 buttons on the top 2 are for vol control one for camera and 4th one i am not sure of so i held that with camera and no-go
, start the bootloader (The bootloader is invoked by pressing down the Record button and Camera button at the same time).
what am i missing??
Hi
I don't know anything about flashing to new rom from SD
but about bootloader mode on startrek , you can see this thread .
Good Luck !
Same Problem
I'm having a similar problem. When I run enterbootloader.exe, it searches the SD card but says 'invalid certificate'. I can't do the record and camera button sequence because my charging connector is broken. Please help me!!!
1. you must copy the STARIMG.nbh on the root of memory card ( not in a folder )
2. also , if you use the official rom , you must first unlock application . ( for locked phones , sda unlock is necessary , too )

I did that, and i think my phone is SDA unlocked, but I can't run it just in case, my charging connector is broken. I flashed from SD to my current ROM from Erofich's v9c, and it worked. I just started SoftSPL from the start menu.
EDIT- Problem Solved. See my next post for what I did.
Bootloader mode
1. Find an official ROM (It has to be official, or you'll get Invalid Certificate error.)
2. Extract STARIMG.nbh (or whatever it's called) from it.
3. Place the STARIMG.nbh into the root of a FAT32 formatted SD Card. (If there are files already there, you don't have to delete them, my startrek just finds the STARIMG if it's in the root.
4. Put the SD into your device.
5. make sure your device is turned off.
6. Press and hold the Camera (bottom right) and record (bottom left) buttons, and while holding them press the power button for about half a second, then let go.
7. Wait about 5 seconds for bootloader to appear.
8. 'Flash from SD? Press this <- Button.' (Press the button it points to, not the left softkey)
9. Wait
10.
If you need SDA App unlock or anything like that, or to get into bootloader mode to flash an UNofficial ROM, you must start flashing an automated ROM (with the batch/cmd window), and close it when it puts the phone in bootloader for you.
So thanks for sharing your explanation .

i just flashed my rom to natf 4.0 and it says this beta software has concluded, and there is a white screen stuck on my fuze and it wont do anything, it wont even connect to active sync so i can re flash it i need help big time, phone not working, i run a business,i have no other phone, what can i do.
Did u HardSPL before flashing ? If not do so. See here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008
If yes u do not need Activesync, u can flash a ROM (NOT THE HARDSPL) from the SD Card as well
See:
Flashing Via MicroSD Card
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 using a PC (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
2. Download your prefered Rom from the Raphael Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your computer
3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to RAPHIMG.nbh
4. Copy the RAPHIMG.nbh file to the root of your microSD Card
5. Remove Sim Card and Restart phone
6. Plug the microSD Card into the phone
7. Press and hold the volume down button, then press the reset button with the stylus. Release the volume down button when bootloader tricolour screen appears
8. Follow the onscreen instructions to start flashing
9. Once phone finishes flashing and says Update Complete, reset with the stylus
10. When it gets to the screen where it configures the stylus, HARD RESET
(hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER (center) Buttons, press the RESET button with the stylus tip, then release the RESET button but continue to hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons until the reset screen appears)
11. Follow onscreen instructions to set up your New Rom
Taken from this, thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008
Did u try a Hard reset, this is mentioned in Step 10, just in the above instruction.
And last, Why did u take the 4.0, the ROM is at 4.7 according to

I have an HTC Mogul that I am trying to flash over to a custom ROM. Unfortunately I got a little too gung ho and didnt flash the radio over, so now the phone freezes at the HTC splash screen on start up. I have tried flashing it back to a carrier rom or even another custom rom but it gets to the loading bar and then fails out. Have tried flashing from the SD card but every image i put on there says that there is no valid image on the card.
I have looked high and low for an answer to my problem but have had little to no luck anywhere.

Unlocked bootloader -> Custom ROM -> GPS Radio -> Boot
So as long as your bootloader is unlocked (olipro 2.40, no2chem 2.47) then go ahead and flash the Custom GPS ROM you want to use on there. Then flash a GPS Radio I use 3.42.40 and yes I have tested all the others. Then to be totally sure might as well hard reset and pull the battery for a few.
Edit: Tip I figure everyone needs to read. If flashing using RUU method (exe, or utility through usb cable) make sure you dont have a Memory card in the phone. That ensures no problems will arise like bad flashes.
If using microSD card then make sure its not plugged in while flashing. Card must be 2gb and under and be formatted fat 32, image must be named TITAIMG.nbh and be the only thing on the card, no files or folders but the .nbh
Also check in your Computers files and folders settings and make sure you have it selected to Show File Extensions. That way you know the files are getting named and assigned correctly.
The problem I am having right now is the bootloader seems borked. It will not load any files. any that i put on the card it flashes up quick and says no image file found and then back to the bootloader screen and if i try usb it goes to the point where the progress bar comes up and then errors out. Is there a way to flash the bootloader without loading into WM?

What bootloader is on there now? You should of already mentioned this in your first post, let alone your second..
Also what size memory card are you using, I hinted at that already too.
Yeah that would help
Here is what is at the top of the Bootloader:
TITA100
SPL-1.07.0000
CPLD-9
I am using a 2 gig card, tried with a 1 gig it would get the to loading screen and freeze

Yea you messed up, you need to flash an unlocked bootloader from a functioning WM. There are ways around it and to get out of your jam.
Tell me what the phone does after unplugging it, removing the memory card, taking the battery out and letting it sit for a couple minutes. Put only the battery in and turn it on.
I need to know if it tries to boot the OS and gets stuck or if it goes to bootloader automatically.
it tries to boot to WM, goes to the HTC logo and then freezes, i still have to hold down the camera button to boot into the bootloader

Thats not how you get into bootloader on a Titan.
Manual Bootloader mode on a Titan = Power Button + Camera Button + Reset Button (hole next to memory card slot) for a couple seconds then release.
Ok now next information that you forgot to post. What HTC Mogul is it P4000, VX6800, PPC6800, or other variant. What carrier branding is it, like what stock ROM was originally on there. Sprint, Verizon, Qwest. Exe.
I need to know this as well so we are not just trying things to you get it. I want to write you a walkthrough that hits the nail on the head.
PPC6800
Old Carrier was USCC
and it may just be this version but to get into bootloader I have just been holding down camera then at the same time holding down power holding it for a few seconds then releasing the power and it goes into BL
1: Download the following files from my HTC to Windows Unlock Tools directory. Download the Titan_Relocker.exe, a GPS radio of your choosing, and the titan_spl_olipro240.exe.
2. Now make sure you have Active Sync 4.5 installed first then the HTC windows drivers installed second (from my HTC unlock directory on my share site). Now install both of those and restart the computer, start from a fresh PC. Now disable the Active Sync usb connections just right click the Active sync icon on your PC's taskbar. Pick connection settings and then look for the Box with Allow USB connections. Clear the box (disable) the usb connections.
3. Take out the storage card and now manually put the phone into bootloader "power camera reset" and then plug the phone into the PC using a MAIN port built into the Motherboard (no hub, no front usb panel). Now use Winrar, or 7zip to extract the contents of the Titanrelocker.exe into a folder. You will then see the ROMupdateutility.exe and ExitBL.exe with a bunch of other files. Ok now Run the ROM update utitlity.exe from the extracted folder and let it flash The Stock SPL. When it is done follow the prompts on screen. Now if it reboots back to olipro bootloader then run the Exitbl.exe and soon as it reboots wait till after the first splash screen and Unplug the phone.
4. Now manually put the phone into bootloader "power camera reset" (so it restarts and goes back to bootloader). Now we are going to flash the Olipro 2.40. Use Winrar, or 7zip to extract the contents of Olipro 2.40.exe into a folder. You will then see the ROMupdateutility.exe and ExitBL.exe with a bunch of other files. Ok now Run the ROM update utitlity.exe from the extracted folder and let it flash Olipro 2.40 When it is done follow the prompts on screen. Now if it reboots back to olipro bootloader then run the Exitbl.exe and soon as it reboots wait till after the first splash screen and Unplug the phone.
5. Now manually put the phone into bootloader "power camera reset" (so it restarts and goes back to bootloader). Now you can flash a Custom ROM using RUU method or go ahead and use the microSD method.
a. You can use an RUU utility to flash the custom ROM while its still plugged in and in bootloader.
b. You can flash the custom ROM with a Micro SD card, just unplug the phone and put the card in and manually put the phone in bootloader again using power + camera + reset all at the same time for a second or two.
6: When the ROM is done installing you MUST flash a GPS radio version 3.35 and up if you are using a GPS ROM. If you use RUU method you have to perform a hard reset after flashing the radio. If you use the Micro SD method you do not have to Hard Reset.
Still it is a good idea to hard reset and then pull battery for a minute to make sure the page pool is set.
on #3 flashing it back to the stock SPL i get the same error as I have been getting, it goes to the progress bar on both the computer and phone, sits at 0% for about 30 seconds then the computer gives error 262
ok finally got it to respond to the SD card, but it has been sitting on a grey screen saying loading for a good 6 hours now, i have a feeling that this is going to take some low-level editing with mtty
First off, sorry if this is in the wrong section, didnt quite feel like it belonged in the development forum.
Now to the problem. I downloaded a root thing for gsm. Read the instructions and went oops thats for gsm. I cant post links because I am a new member but if you search for thread "ICS 4.0.4 upgrade guide - "not so permanent now"" on here you will find the page/instructions/link. Went on searching. However having way too many windows open on my little laptop screen with a touch pad thats too sensitive i accidentally somehow clicked on something in that folder because I am an idiot and left the window open. Lesson learned...close/delete **** that doesnt apply to my phone. I think i clicked either Rootexplorer.apk or whatever was on top or below (fastboot or step 1 - flash 403) it since that is where my mouse was approx when something popped up and my phone did something (lesson 2, dont leave phone plugged in to computer)
I have been searching furiously and have all but given up and am ready to go out and buy a new phone tomorrow...ouch...
I am hoping that somebody here might know of something. My phone was freshly updated to 4.04 before it happened. Please try to keep the flaming to a minimum but understandably i deserve some of it but im feeling pretty miserable as it is already. Thanks in advance for any help you guys may provide.
I'm no expert, but I would think of you can still get into fastboot you can saved your phone. I'm droidrzr.com there's plenty of people that use fastboot to go from one ics leak to another. Maybe you can do something like that. I don't know razrs all that well. Sorry if this was a useless post.....
Sent from my DROID RAZR
Google "matts razr utility 1.7"
Download and run.
Make sure your phone is connected to your PC and in ap fastboot mode,
Select option 1
Follow directions from there.
also, make sure you have .211.xt912.en.us on the root of your EXTERNAL SD card before you start the utility.
This should at least get you on the stock cdma ics.
EDIT:
Download
Verizon, 6.16.211.en.US
Unzip the file, copy the 2 files to Root of your EXTERNAL SDCARD
Follow this: droidforums.net/forum/droid-razr/213197-offical-ota-zip-installation-guide-droid-razr-razr-maxx.html
Copied from there:
1. Download the official OTA "Blur_Version.6.12.181.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip " file from above.
2. Place the file downloaded in step one into the ROOT of your EXTERNAL SD card. (DO NOT UNZIP THE FILE)
3. Turn off phone.
4. Go into recovery by pressing and holding the Volume Up (+), Volume Down (-), and Power button all three at the same time. (Press and hold all physical buttons.)
5. The menu will come up and select "Recovery".(Volume Down key to go down and Volume Up key to SELECT/ENTER Recovery.)
*The Android and Exclamation mark logos will come up*
6. Press both Volume Up (+) and the Volume Down (-) buttons at the same time. Release.
7. With the Volume Down (-) button go down to "Wipe CACHE partition" and press the Power button to select it. DO THIS TWICE (Don't worry your data will not get erased by wiping the cache.) (Thanks smmfc)
8. With the Volume Down (-) button go down to "Apply Update from SDCard" and press the Power button to select it.
9. Volume Down (-) go to the “Blur_Version.6.12.173.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zi p” and select it with the Power button. (This is the one we put in the External SD in Step 2.)
10. It will take a while to upgrade, mine isn't even done yet and I started it when I started to write Step 1
11. Once it is done, go to "Reboot system now."
12. Official ICS, Enjoy!!! =D
Once it's your first time starting ICS, it WILL take a while to load up, it is normal, it will also be "Optimizing applications" at first start up.
-----------------------------------------
Just extract the blur version zip and place it on the root of external SD, then run utility
All of this can be done from your PC if you have a card reader.
Don't thank me, thank matt for his awesome utility if it works.

Well I couldnt live without a phone, normally I would painful as it would be. But got a new job offer and I need to be in contact with the world so I went and got a new one this morning. But hopefully if anybody else is as silly as me then this thread will be here for them to save their phones.
Hello i got a problem im not sure but i think i bricked my phone i dont really know how to expalin it either, well i want it to update it so i downloaded update from htc website for sprint but i think i had to download it for hero G2 with i found later so i installled it i had an error phone turned off now i cant do anything with it it wont turn on only vibrate 5 times? if i connect it with usb laptop wont see it i cant boot it or nothing but when i put it on charge it heats up? any ideas?
Sounds like a brick to me... Do you get any output on screen, what OS are you using on your PC, any response from it ?
nothing happens when i use usb cable and windows 7. Today when i was trying to turn my phone on again power on/off + home it vibrated 5 times?
Pull out your battery, plug it back in, hold POWER+VOL DOWN, and it sould take you to HBoot, if you cant do that then im very sorry and your phone is hard bricked...
i was wondering would that work?
How to flash stock ROM through SD-Card
*This only works with current stock ROM or newer version. Downgrading will fail till we have SuperCID. More about that in here!
1. Run the RUU and get the rom.zip from it. (Find it in here "c:\users\%usrename%\appdata\temp\")
2. Copy rom.zip to the SD-Card and rename it to PJ46IMG.zip
3. Put the SD-Card in the card reader.
4. Put the card reader onto the USB Y-Cable.
5. Plugin the USB Y-Cable to your One X.
6. Hold volume down and press the power button while keeping the volume down pressed. This will get you into HBOOT.
7. Wait a couple of seconds and you'll see that it finds PJ46IMG.zip
8. Follow the instructions on your screen =)

Biggest question is - can You go into fastboot mode? Because there is a way to flash Your phone is You can go into fast boot, and there should be a manual somewhere here, not using One X, but hero ;]
Let us know, does the phone respond by going into fastboot.
Additionaly : how did You downloaded firmware for sprint, as You should give IMEI number on HTC site.

I would like to give credit to everyone who has worked on the android roms, and other guides. I have taken some of the info for this guide from the WIKI
It seemed we were due for a friendly how to guide on how to load a NAND rom on a RHOD device. I decided to write a step by step guide to help people out. This guide does provide a very basic ADB setup, but it is just enough to get you up and running. If you want to do advanced things you should get the full ADB, and learn more about it.
This guide is written for a RHOD400, Android GBX0*+3.4.26 rom, and a Win7 pc, but should be almost identical for the rest of the RHOD family, other versions of Windows, and most other roms.
It is assumed that you have unlocked your phone for custom rom loading in the past at some point. This is not the same as unlocking the sim card. This is 100% required. Please read here and/or here, and/or here if you need help with unlocking your phone.
This guide assumes that you know what a command prompt is, how to load windows drivers for a device, and can open zip files. If these things are not within your skill sets I would recommend that you find someone who understands these things to assist you.
Things you need.
1. A RHOD phone.
2. A micro SD card that is at least 512mb in size.
Tip: I suggest a sd card that is less than 4gb in size. There tends to be less compatibility issues with non SDHC cards. SDHC cards usually work, but if you have trouble this is a good thing to change. The SD card does have to be less than 64gb in size as the phone can not read cards larger than 32gb.
3. A usb based micro sd card reader. A usb based card reader is need to be compatible with the HP format tool. Some built in ones are usb based others are not. If you have one, you can try it and see if it works. It is not recommended to use your phone's sd card reader for prep work.
4. A usb cable that is known to work. Test it in WM first. On rare occasion I have seen cables that did work with WM and not Android. If you have issues, this is also something good to swap out during trouble shooting.
5. A windows based pc. *DO NOT USE USB 3.0 PORTS* Many reports about have come in about them causing issues.
The procedure.
1. Back up anything you want to keep from your phone. Everything on the phone will be wiped during this process.
2. Put the micro sd card into your USB card reader and format with the HP format tool. It needs to be a full fat32 format. Windows format is known to have issues on occasion, and this step is a work around for that problem. It is not 100% required, but if you have trouble it is 100% required during trouble shooting.
3. While this is formatting you can download the recovery (recovery_cwr_6.0.1.3.img) ***It has been found that the 6.0.1.3 recovery does not make backups correctly, resulting in md5 errors. You may use it if you are not planning on using the backup feature, or the older one by acl works fine. You can rename it to use the included scripts if you wish.***, rom (GBX0*+3.4.26 Full) , the boot loader, the needed usb android drivers, and the adb files.Gapps is optional.
4. Make sure your battery is at least 50% charged. I recommend a 100% charge. A dead battery in the middle of flashing can brick your phone.
5. Copy the RHODIMG.NBH, rom (GBX0*+3.4.26 Full), and the gapps (optional) files to the sd card and put it in your phone with the phone turned off.
6. Press the hold down the volume down button while pressing the power button. This will bring up the tri colored screen. It will then automatically go to the white rom update screen.
7. Follow the directions (press the power button on the RHOD400) to start the update. This should take less than 1min.
Troubleshooting tip:
If the phone sits at loading 0%, and never moves after 10 min you may not have unlocked your phone or there is an issue with your RHODIMG file. Verify that you have unlocked your phone (you can try loading a WM custom rom), format the SD card, re-download the RHODIMG file, and try again. Also try another SD card and SD card reader.
8. If the phone reboots automatically, that is fine. Otherwise when the phone says Update Success you can pull the battery to shut it off.
9. Turn the phone back on. You should see a blue miniPooploader screen with a lot of white text scrolling for a moment. When it gets done, pull the battery to shut it off. Then replace the battery (it should still be off)
10. Connect the usb cable between the phone and the PC, and turn the phone on. The PC should see the device, and may or may not assign drivers to it.
11. Install the USB/fastboot driver for the phone. On Win 7 the phone showed initially as android device under other folder in the device manager. After the driver is installed it should be called My HTC.
12. Open the ADB Tools zip file, and put the platform-tools folder on c:\
13. Open a command prompt and go to c:\platform-tools\.
Once there type:
Code:
fastboot devices
You should get a response similar to this:
C:\platform-tools>fastboot devices
HT04TM300704 fastboot
If this is not working stop now and troubleshoot.
14. Now to wipe the phone in prep for loading (or reloading) the android rom.
There is a wipe.bat file I have included. You may run it, or you may type the following commands.
Code:
Fastboot erase recovery
Fastboot erase boot
Fastboot erase misc
Fastboot erase system
Fastboot erase userdata
Fastboot erase cache
15. Place the recovery (recovery_cwr_6.0.1.3.img) file into c:\platform-tools.
16. Now load the recovery image. If it is named recovery_cwr_6.0.1.3.img you may use the reload_recovery.bat or type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_cwr_6.0.1.3.img
to load the recovery image then
Code:
fastboot boot recovery_cwr_6.0.1.3.img
to boot the recovery image.
17. Install the rom.
Using the volume keys highlight 'Install zip from sdcard' then press the call button to select it.
Highlight 'choose zip from sdcard' and press the call button to select it.
Highlight the rom file (GBX_3.4.26_Full.zip) and press the call button to select it.
Highlight yes and press the call button to select it.
The rom will now install. This will take a few minutes.
18. (optional) Install Gapps.
Using the volume keys highlight 'Install zip from sdcard' then press the call button to select it.
Highlight 'choose zip from sdcard' and press the call button to select it.
Highlight the gapps file (probably gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip) and press the call button to select it.
Highlight yes and press the call button to select it.
Gapps will now install. This will take a few minutes.
19. Press the back arrow, and select reboot system now.
The phone should reboot into the Android rom now. It will take about 10min the first time. If you have waited more than 30 something has gone wrong. You should troubleshoot and try again.
At this point you have the basics all in place, and can start using your phone.
If you want to do basic ADB tasks (along the lines of installing apps remotely/side loading or pushing/pulling files) you will need to install the adb windows driver.
20. Press the thanks button if you liked this guide.
P.S.
If you have issues getting adb to work later, download and use USBDeview.exe to remove the HTC driver entries and then install pdanet for android to get the correct adb drivers installed.

Well if you have not listed all your trouble shooting steps, you will not get help from anyone. Our physic abilities are lacking these days.
Also posting specific questions in the thread about the rom you are trying to install will have a higher chance of getting useful feedback.

Maybe if you provided a list of your troubleshooting steps we might be of more help... Otherwise we have no choice, but to bow to your knowlage of having done all necessary things.

Thank you WizardKnight for replying me.
This is the steps i use to do.
1. I use RhodiumWUnlocker to unlock my rhod500 , to get any rom loaded with it
2. I copy RHODIMG.NBH, GBX_3.4.24_Full, recovery_cwr_6.0.1.3 all to my 4gb SDard
3. Vol- + PWR and phone turns to the tri color screen, then the phone started to load the image files
4. I press PWR butt to start the update, within a couple of seconds the phone update successfully
I press resest button for the phone to boot up to see if it will go to the fast boot screen.
But i was unlucky always the phone restart itself within some seconds.
This is my Prb

Sounds like you just need to flash CWM... the CWM recovery image doesn't go on your SD card, you flash that from your computer using the "fastboot flash" command...
You can also try "fastboot boot <recovery.img>" - w/o the < >. Remember, this is done on your computer. That's why you need the fastboot drivers...

It's in the guide, is it not...? Please read the guide. It walks you through everything necessary...
Edit - following the guide, you should be on step 9 at this point. Please continue with the guide.

You Mean This .
9. Turn the phone back on. You should see a blue miniPooploader screen with a lot of white text scrolling for a moment. When it gets done, pull the battery to shut it off. Then replace the battery (it should still be off)
My Phone doesn't bring this window

You described this screen (scrolling text, blue background?) I remember you said you got it to fastboot, no?
Where is your phone getting to?
edit: nevermind fiddled with it, dont know what i did but it worked
I have a rhod400. I have been messing with OMGB as my daily phone OS since July 2012 and just installed this one about a week ago.
I have two questions/issues
1) Every time I try to reboot, it freezes. When I try to power off, it sometimes freezes, but usually reboots.
2) I can't seem to make persistent changes to the hosts file. After every reboot, it's set to the same old generic "127.0.0.1 localhost"
During boot, does the OS unpack a .img or something with the hosts file packed inside it? If so, where is it?
Thanks, guys. Other than these 2 issues, this flavor of android for rhodium is pretty solid. i like it.

Please put rom specific questions in that rom's thread.
If you are running a newer than.27 kernel the reboot and power off functions do not work properly in any rom.
I believe that the host file is overwritten by the ram disk/boot.img on boot every time. Any changes will not stick.
There is a chance these issues may be fixed on the next release of GBX, but no promises.

This isn't enough information to help you.
If you're not going to provide detailed information on what is happening, no one will be able to help you.
Perhaps NAND is not for your device. Flash back to WinMo.
