Re: unlock, flash and even relock your TP via the SD card!

Hey guys.
I really need to get my phone back to stock before I take it into the Sprint store for a replacement as im running this EnergyROM. I need help ASAP as my screen is non functional at times and could very well die out any second.

I've downgraded to the stock rom.
Now how do i lock my phone ?

Re: unlock, flash and even relock your TP via the SD card!

First off, let me say thanks for this! It is fantastic, and worked for me but I did hit an un-bootable cycle. I think you may be getting people hitting this accidentally do to the instructions not being 100% step-by-step. Here are some places you may want to edit:

(I think some have hit the unbootable cycle by softreseting too soon at this point sometimes it hangs for a couple minutes while the bar is full but make sure it says complete before you soft reset) You can verify by holding power and vol down while pressing soft reset. It should say cmonex if you unlocked properly.
On my Sprint TP, it automatically reset at this point. Not really a big deal, but it was different than I expected.

If you have a file named RAPHIMG.nbh on your sd card this screen will only flash briefly and then give you a message that says press power to flash. Now, lets soft reset our phones at this point to start the prep for flashing your phone.
Here's where I think a lot of the "no's" in the poll may be coming from. This should be edited to tell people to remove the RAPHIMG.nbh they used to unlock the phone before holding down power/volume. Holding power too long will auto-reflash the nbh, and caused my failure.

You also may want to update this to say: 'Once you see "Update Complete, UPDATE SUCCESS," and not before, you can soft reset using the reset button on the bottom of the phone.'

Thanks again!

Re: unlock, flash and even relock your TP via the SD card!

Im having trouble with the SD card procedure. My phone simply displays a loading screen upon following the given instructions. Might anyone know what I am trying to explain? And in turn have a solution.

Re: unlock, flash and even relock your TP via the SD card!

my guess is you need to re-format your sd card (but backup first!)
