I got my Toshiba Tg01 three days ago. Since then I waste all of my free time trying to flash ANY rom just to get rid of the WM6.5 looking. I downloaded 3 miROMs, but they gave me the same error. Tried flashing the rom that has 0321 radio to get to download mode - not succeeded aswell. I tried using SDDL method and pin method. They gave me the same error: SD Downloading Failed - File Read Error.
I have no idea what to do or what is wrong with my device. I'll donate some cash if someone could help me flash my TG01. Can anyone help me?!
Edit: I just reformatted my sd card (fat32) and redownloaded some roms to my laptop. Same file read error. I'm getting sick of this...
Edit2: Just tried with .tsw .enc and .bin formated roms, neither of them worked, same error. HELP ME!
try with sddl+ and will work with .tsw make a folder prg in storage card and put the rom there

I just reformatted my memory card (again), downloaded the rom with 0321 radio, renamed it to tg01_release.tsw and moved to the newly created prg folder on my sd card. Now I have three files in the folder. The rom file, sddl and sddl+. When I click on sddl+, the phone reboots and the same error appears: sd downloading failed - file read error.

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,

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

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,
Since I mostly use Linux and Mac OS X, it's not very easy for me to flash my TyTN. There is an article in XDA-Wiki which describes a way to flash my device from the SD card, but it mentions formatting the card before doing the upgrade.
Is it absolutely needed to do so? I have lots of files in my card and I don't want to move them every time before I flash my phone.
Thanks in advance for your answers.
AFAIK, as long as your card is formatted in FAT32, then it should work.

Thanks for your answer, a test will convince me ...
i can confirm that you don't need to format it as long as it's FAT32. I can't flash ROMS at work for some reason (no admin privileges, i suspect) and so I occasionally flash from my SD card. It actually works really well.
Above posts are corre correct. I flash from SD card all the time, in fact i have NEVER used a cable to flash my phone. As long as the SD card has been formatted as fat32 you can flash from it without removing other files. I keep all my cabs, sms\contacts backup, files, contact pics, etc. in folders on the SD and then copy the .NBH file to the root of the card and flash away, makes it easy to change ROM's with minimal fuss and can even be done without a computer. About two weeks ago I found myself stuck in an airport and downloaded a new rom via airport wi-fi, extracted nbh file with pocket rar, renamed and saved to SD and viola, new ROM.
I confirm that too. What you absolutely need is to have it formatted in FAT32. SDcard flashing is the only way i use too. BUT... (yes... there is a ...but...) it happens that the "hermimg.nbh" is not detected if it is not one of the first files on your card. In this case, when you "hardreset", no file will be found. This is why i recommand to format it before.
I have a working CRC rom now, but when i started looking into flashing a lot of ppl were saying i should only flash off the sd card. well, it didn't work when i first tried it, and i thought i would enquire as to why this was.
i did everything as the faq/wiki said, i have got the latest Hard SPL on my phone, i renamed the file to HERMIMG.nbh, i held the necessary buttons in and clicked reset with the stylus and i didnt get that gray menu. all i got was the 4 color thing that normally comes up when flashing ROMs. I did manage to successfully flash by USB/Activesync, but as i said im curious to know what stopped it from working, and maybe learn how to do it right in time for CRCs next release
Are you sure that you extracted the .nbh from the archive and formatted the sd card to FAT32? I know you said you did everything; I'm just double checking
3. Extract the .NBH file from your preferred ROM upgrade: In windows use winrar (right click) to extract the contents of the exe file.

Did you format the card fat32? This seems to be so simple most people overlook it and go to the 2nd step.
I've also found that I sometimes need to reformat my sd card (even though I flashed heaps of times with it) or it won't work.
Also you can only use up to a 2gb card to flash. The os will recognise a sdhc card but the bootloader won't...
Cheers...
i did format it to fat32, and i did rename it to that filename
i will try again soon and will report back, but for now i am happy with CRC 13
If the sd card is more than 2gb then it won't work also as the bootloader WILL NOT recognise an sdhc card...
Cheers...
No .NBH File
I think I am having the same issue, but I also think I know where the issue stems from.
CRC's files are in .7z format and the only file they seem to contain is the RUUWrapper.exe file and not also the RUU_signed.nbh file (the one that you should be renaming) that seem to be the standard of most other ROMs - unless I'm missing something.
I'm working from Linux (hence why I need the SD card option), just thought I'd throw that out there as an FYI in case it matters.

it turned out this was the problem ,
edit: meant to quote the post where it mentions formating to FAT32..
cyrxi, in windows you can use winrar to extract the .nbh file out of the .exe file. Not sure what you'd do in linux....
Sorry...
I really hope someone can help me out here. I have x10mini pro. I am on stock rom,build2.1.1.a.0.6,standard (never tried custom yet) but now that I see a lot of interesting Rom's I would like to try one. Here's what I did; installed Xrecovery via AAIS, then CWM and now the dual-recovery zip. (I also tried xrec/cwm seperately) So I can chose to use XREC or CWM. Now here's my problem; I am unable to install ANY Rom I have tried so far (gingerbread roms's i.e Gintonic.se but also 2.1.1.Clean.0.0 which is a normal 2.1 rom and flashable via xrec only) won't install.
Everytime I get:
cant open /sdcard/Roms/x.zip 'installation aborted' (bad) I have tried a different SD card (standard) but the same problem persists....I can not believe I am unable to install a custom ROM but I am completely stuck with my problem. I am rooted/xrec working/cwm working...I can install small updates (ie cwm via xrec&dual-recovery.zip) but NOT a complete Rom...Whywhywhy...It is driving me crazy!!! Can someone from this fantastic forum help me please?
Hi u find all ansers in q and a this is dev thread bro

Thanks for trying to help me as well mukptl! How can I check MD5 after copying? You know what is also strange? when I make a backup in cwm i get an error saying: "no /sdcard/.android_secure found.
Skipping backup of applications on external storage...backing up cache.... no sd-ext found (normal, dont have ext partition on my sd's)
generating md5 sum....backup complete!" I am able to run recovery with this though. Still not able to install any rom's I have tried to install via cwm/xrecovery...not even a 2.1 rom
Did you download on PC and then transfer to SD-card or did you download directly to your phone?
I expierences that once also with a ROM downloaded directly to my phone.... a fresh new download on my PC instead fixed it, and then transfer to phone via USB-cable.
Can you open the zip-file on your computer (just to see if it's valid)?
don#t copy your rom in a file folder
only copy the zip to SD
like /sdcard/

wen you back up your phone with cwm its back up also your app on your sd ext if you have so if you dont have sd ext then it say no sd ext found
thats nomal i think
for md5 check there is many software to calculate md5 just search on google and download on your pc
then calculate md5 of you downloaded zip on your pc
then copy the zip on your sd card then calculate md5 of the zip on sd card
if its comes dif then previous one then your zip isnt copyed well
I downloaded on my PC first. I tried with rom on my sd card directly as well...tried with 3 sd cards (class 2/4)...all the same problem. Somehow xrecovery/cwm can not open these files...but I am able to install small update files (also when they are in a directory on my sd) for instance cwm recovery/dual-recovery.zip ...same file extension, same way of coping to my sd...somehow it must have something to do with the files/sd card but what?? Went back to stock via seus...xrecovery via aais, installed cwm via xrecovery...same problem still...I am going insane...I really want to be able to install a custom rom

wen you able to install small update files then its not a problem with cwm or recover or any baseband
i think wen you copy your big zip files its not copied well
for be sure its copied well check md5
start from here for troubleshoot the problem
Edit : operating sys on your pc ?

I will google now for md5 calculator..no experience with it but I know what you mean so I will try...I am using xp pro
edit: ok md5 does not match between file on my pc and file on my sd..really do not know why but looking for it..maybe I should extract and then create the archive directly to my sd card or something? any help is welcome!
Edit2: I finally found a solution, it was simple in the end.. I formatted sd again, downloaded files again en checked them after moving to sd. All is fine now, I am running gintonic by slade..perfect so far! Thread can be closed. Thanks for your help!
how do you disconnect your phone from the PC again?
Remember to use eject usb on the computer first.
