[HOW-TO] - - Flash a Rom or Radio and re-locking on your TP2 from the SD card - Page 27

Ok, funny on the press harder...almost broke the phone the 2nd time!

Don't know if this helps, but since unlocking the phone earlier tonight, if i just do a normal hard reset, it gets stuck in that same screen.

I have tried both running it from the sd with the app and from the PC. Each time it gets stuck on that same screen.

have tried both energy rom and mighty rom, so quite baffled.

soft reset brings me back to my stock rom

Thanks, taking the sd card out did the trick. Not sure why the flash from SD didn't work, but the flashing from the PC was an easy process. My first flash and the energy rom has actually made the phone enjoyable to use.

Glad it worked. You need to properly format your SD card or possibly you have a bum one. That is if you want to flash from the SD instead of the PC.

Guys, I'm a noob to custom roms, never used custom ROMs before, never unlocked my TP2 either. I liked what I saw in VIN Plutonium ROM, there is an article on the front page of Ppcgeeks.... Can somebody please explain why the phone needs to be relocked ? Also, can the TP2 be flashed back with Sprint original ROM in case it has to go back to repair for whatever reason?

relocking is only done when sending phone back to sprint if its getting replaced and yes stock roms are posted here and simple to flash.

i read this post and couldn't find my answer so if anybody can help that would be great
my phone's touchscreen died - i got verizon to send me another replacement.
i now have to send the old one back and was attempting to put the stock rom back on and relock but something happened. it won't go past the HTC screen. (i did not relock the phone before trying to put the stock rom back on - not sure if it makes a difference)
i tried to flash a rom from the sd card (formatted to fat32) correctly renamed to RHODIMG.nbh
when i hard reset, it seems like it doesn't attempt to boot from the SD card - i've tried 2 different custom roms. and every attempt ends up with the same HTC screen from my failed attempt to reload the vzw stock rom.
any ideas?
thanks!

got it to work - was performing a hard-reset (3 buttons)
once i only pressed Vol Down and Power (not holding send) it worked.

now i think i bricked it
1) loaded a custom rom and it was working.
2) tried to install the relocker - it got stuck "loading......" i read in another thread that the phone has to be locked before i can load the stock vzw update.
3) now i can't install anything. in the tri-color screen it gives me an error message, but i can't read it before it goes to "loading....." again.

is there any help for this? i doubt i can send it back to vzw like this.

thanks in advance!

remove your sd card (or just delete all NBH files that are on the sd card) and run stock verizon ruu update from your PC via usb cable.
