reformat the card (even if it says its FAT32) or try a different card...

I just reformatted my SD card and it worked. My phone is now unlocked. Now I'm stuck on the bootloader screen where it keeps asking to press power button to start update image or press action button to cancel update image. It keeps resetting when I press the power and the phone just has an error message when I press the action button. What do I do now? I know I have to flash it now but I'm confused on how to. THanks!

take any custom ROM and rename it RAPHIMG and drop it on the root of the card, then re-enter bootloader

-or-

leave device in bootloader, and run RUU from computer to flash ROM

I downloaded the Mighty Rom and it downloaded as an .exe so I renamed it like you said and dropped it in the root of the SD. I soft resetted and it did the same thing. It didn't recognize the file. It gives me "Upgrade ROM code error" the on the bottom it says USB. So then I tried running the RUU and my cpu doesn't recognize the connection.

you need to extract the nbh file from the exe first using winrar or similiar pr0g

- or -

just run the EXE from the PC

Ahh! I extracted the rom and followed the instructions for flashing on sd. So this means I have 2 nbh files on my sd card. The only way I've been able to put the rom file is through the sd card reader since my phone won't go any farther then the bootloader screen. It's still giving me trouble. I can't do it through PC because my cpu won't recognize the connection.

EDIT: Whoops! I had a space between the period. Its loading now.

you should only have 1 nbh file, the ROM you are flashing... you can delete the unlocker one
also, even though you can't establish an activesync/WMDC connection, u should still be able to flash roms while in bootloader mode

Thanks for the help Puff. I finally got it say Success! Definately donating in the morning. I'm drained from all this learning. Thanks again!

Help!
I'm already unlocked, i'm just trying to flash the sprint stock rom nbh file. I put it straight onto the root of my storage card (fat 32), renamed it RAPHIMG.nbh and hold power-voldown while soft-resetting. A gray screen flashes for a millisecond (i cant read the text fast enough) and then it gets stuck on the tri-color screen until i soft-reset.

IM ABOUT TO KILL MYSELF. lol
