cant flash a rom

erawtik · #1 (**permalink**) 04-13-2009, 12:14 AM

Ok im trying to flash to a new rom and it only has the nbh file in it not utility to flash. So I download the rom utility and there is no exe. So how in the world do I flash this rom? Im on my 3rd rom in the past week so this is not my first.

Rename the RUU.nbh to RAPHIMG.nbh, move the file onto a formatted memory card, put phone into bootloader (volume down key power and soft reset) and press power button when prompted to begin flashing

Here's the one from the How To Flash sticky. Works perfect.

This stickied thread would point you in the right direction, really.

"How To Flash Your Touch Pro"

Attached to it is ruu.zip - that's the ROM update utility you need.

It's named ROMUpdateUtility.exe and yes, it's in there. I just downloaded it and checked.

i don't know what you got goin on with your computer but there are 6 exe files, along with the ones you mentioned, in that RUU folder.

ok came to the site with my phone and downloaded the ruu, unziped it on my phone and then transfered the unziped folder to my pc and there was like 10 files in there including the exe wtf. So i deleted the ruu from my pc and downloaded again same thing 5 files no exe. Something is jacked with my pc. Makes sense why i was looking stupid now

just downloaded winzip and used it to unzip the file instead of winrar and all files are there so something is not right with winrar. Thanks to you razorloves
