Error 238, please help.

I am trying to download a new rom, but receiving an error. The first error that i got was 240, but i figured that the new rom needed a different name. So now i need help on what I need to do to get the ROM updated and go past error 238.

thanks in advance.

Can you let us know what the error says if anything at all.....

Is your phone unlocked, RMEL? I have looked and it seems to be a locking issue... Your phone needs to be unlocked before you can flash to a new ROM..

[jason25]

What ROM are you attempting to flash to? Are you trying to flash via USB or Storage Card?

It should be named RUU_signed.nbh if by USB and RAPHIMG.nbh if by Storage Card.

Im using ROMupdateutility

I'm a newbie with this ROM stuff, so sorry for the questions.

When I go to bootloader mode it says:
Security unlocked
raph800
spl-0.37cmonex

Does this mean its unlocked?

Juggalo ROM via USB

I do have it named RUU_signed.nbh

I just want to confirm, when I download the ROM file it downloads as a .rar file, then I change the name to RUU_signed.nbh, correct?

[lafester]

no... you open the .rar and the .nbh is inside.

[BigDiesel07]

That might be the problem..

[jason25]

lol, sorry. You download the rar, extract the nbh file into the RUU folder, the run ROMUpdateUtility.exe

[rmel77]

Thanks Everyone! I figured it out. I needed a app that unzipped .rar files.

Thanks again!
