When a file named this is put on the root of the card and the phone put into bootloader it will blink the bootloader screen for a second then say loading on a grey screen, then flicker right back to the boatloader screen. I have also read where it will just flicker the boatloader screen, go to the grey screen but it will only say "loading..." and not do anything until you soft reset. Are you sure your file is named correctly???? haven't heard of any other issue not allowing SD flashing. I only flash from SD, always have and renaming is the only issueI have ever had.

I don't know if it is just some cards or a filesystem naming problem, but I have some RAPHIMG.nbh files that are recognized by the SPL and other that won't. This is on the same card, which would seem to point to a filesystem naming issue, but it could be multiple problems with the same symptoms.
To eliminate other possibilities I took the 1GB sandisk that came with the Touch Pro, formated it FAT32, copied the RAPHIMG.nbh to the card on winxp and did the vulcan death grip.
I get the gray screen with the "No Image File!" text flashing by, then the 3 color screen.
I just use USB and the updater now because the SD card method doesn't always work.
I'm sure it is a problem with the SPL not being able to recognize the file, but I don't know if it is because the card can't be read, the filesystem can't be read, the filename can't be found, or the file is found and there is something about the file the SPL doesn't like. Would be nice if the SPL actually told you what the problem was.
I suspect it is either the windows 8.3 to longer name mapping or some issue with how the cards are formatted, either as a floppy style drive where there is no partition table or as raw disk/hard disk style with partition table.
Anyway, just wanted to mention that someone else has noticed this behavior before.
