My TP hangs during ROM update

[planoleg]

The phone is unlocked with Raphael_CDMA_HSPL_037. Then I ran task 29. From tricolor mode, I try to install a rom. As the installation bar progresses, it suddenly stops at some point. Then it says
Error [262] UPDATE ERROR
The Rom Update Utility has encountered communication errors during the update process. The program will guide you step-by-step to recover from the errors so you can continue with the update. Then I go to recovery, unplug the cable, remove battery, install the battery, enter tricolor mode and connect back the cable. Then I try to flash again and it hangs all the time at a different point (%)

Or my phone simply restarts during flashing and gives the following error:
Error [324] INVALID COMMAND
This Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please check your update utility.

This is really weird. I only started having the problem since I lost my last phone and got a replacement. Never happened before.

Did you try to flash ROM from sd card yet? If not then give that a try just make sure the ROM is named "RAPHIMG.nbh" and not in a folder on sd card that is formatted to FAT32, then start phone in boot loader mode (tri-color screen)

+1..Give that a try and see how it works. Did you also try re-downloading the ROM to see if that would do the trick?
