How To's: Unlocking, Relocking, Flashing, Dumping and Troubleshooting

[mwalt2]

Is anyone here having any problems flashing with Windows 7 RC1 x64? As soon as the progress bar comes up in the RUU utility (ie it becomes disconnected from Windows Mobile Device Center), Windows starts installing a QPST driver which seems to disconnect the phone from the update utility. That causes it to fail and I am stuck on the bootloader screen. If I plug the phone back into USB, RUU still cannot find the phone. I've searched and have found several people say they've been flashing with Windows 7, so I don't know why I am having this problem.

I need help getting the MSL for my Palm Centro I was given. I called Sprint with all the info they needed and was turned down. Under no circumstances would they give me the code; only in the store and I don't have time to go. Anyway, I have tried just about everything (downloads, syncing, etc.) and I need a quick fix. I can provide the ESN for any pros or employees. Just need a little help.

Thanks

if the rep knows and follows policy, they wont give it to you if u just straight ask for it...
i recommend you check out BAFMSL Grabber

Did you try disabling advance functionality in USB to PC?

Where would that setting be? I let it install the QSPT drivers, and the RUU program was able to flash successfully. However, when I tried to flash again, it was not able to communicate with the device and I was stuck in bootloader mode. I don't have this problem in Vista or XP, so I'm not sure what would be causing it.

hi guys; i am newby; so i might be asking for help alot because i have no idea what i am doing. all i want is to make my phone a little faster; a cool theme and be able to download cool apps with no prob. my first question is will this unlock work for my touch pro?. it is a sprint by the way. thank you so much. sorry if it is a dumb question....i go to downlaod .netframework and i have a download error by the way...i dunno

Will this part work for the touch pro as well?

Upgrade Your Splash:

For those of you who are tired of that old HTC Diamond splash screen (when you first turn on the phone), try THIS new one! - (Picture)
The picture is designed so that the bottom text is only visible from certain angles and/or certain brightnesses. It's pretty sweet.
Simply follow the BASIC Users instructions, using the link as your RUU_Signed.nbh.

I finally decided to make a Stock Splash. It can be found HERE. (Picture)

Like if i stock splash this to my touch pro won't mess anything up?

hello

the as error 202 is covered on page 4, post 35. it means you are not establishing a connection properly between your diamond and pc. there are several tips throughout this thread that may fix your problem.

Mabe the FP should have added to it that if your phone has a sim card in it - that this unlock with brick it as we are still getting people that arnt "getting it"...

[tobeychris]

No, because most of the people who can't read the warning are not that fluent in English. Yes, they have sim cards, so the warning would be good if they could understand it, but instead they'll see 'sim card' mixed in with everything else and say "Oh, this must be for me!"
