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.

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..

Re: Error 238, please help.

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.

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

Does this mean its unlocked?

Re: Error 238, please help.

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?

Re: Error 238, please help.

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

Thanks again!
