Fix/Workaround for 2016 Issue

Since I need the SMSs to show actual sent times, I used the "Ziggy471 USCC rilphone.cab" from the first post, believing I'd be able to just uninstall the cab if there was any issue...

VERY bad mistake.

Phone will only show the black "Touch Pro" start-up splash screen with the red ROM and radio information at the bottom. After about 6 minutes just sitting there, I get this cryptic message:


Ziggy, man, am I f--ked? Any ideas short of a hard reset? I stupidly hadn't backed up some recent notes and a video of my nephew's first steps. Yes, saved to internal storage because the storage card was too full, and a new phone was on its way.......

this shows up on our touch pro2's usually meaning that its time to hard reset. im pretty sure your ****ed

Yeah man, did a little research on XDA about "rilphone.dll hangs when device booting"... and looks like the rilphone.dll included in this rilphone.cab is not signed... at least not appropriately for my stock Sprint phone. Looks like running a simple file before (a patched NK.exe) would've saved me all this headache. But now....

I'd research further, but I am still kicking myself for not saving my nephew's first steps video -- he just did it last night... So sad...

Had the same problem, installed the rilphone.cab and the phone (Touch Pro running raidzero's now discontinued 6.5 rom) would not boot past the "Touch Pro" splash screen.

Hard reset. Searched xda and could not find a "patched NK.exe" file. Can you post a link or file?

Thanks.
