For everyone pissed at Olipro & cmonex...Hard-SPL
 

Any one who has received the following error:

"Hard-SPL is for non-commercial purposes only, we have detected that you appear to already have unlocked another device, if you wish you unlock commercially, please e-mail contactchan@freemail.hu or olipro@gmail.com to discuss solutions; However if this is your first device, then please ensure that the radio is turned ON and retry"

I wanted to share my experience. I've read countless pages from the xda and ppcg forums, trying to decide whether or not to make a payment of £4.00 GBP to regain the ability to unlock my seemingly blacklisted device.

I wanted to know if making payment would work specifically for my situation which was:

New Sprint Touch Pro2 with an original SPL of 0.72 and running Windows 7.

I found a reference of a Sprint user paying and immediately being able to unlock and after getting a response from razorloves. Today I decided to make payment, not being interested in waiting a month for my open ticket to be answered.

Here were my exact steps:

1. Connected TP2 to computer.
2. Opened RhodiumW-HardSPL_V1_10R3.exe
3. Selected Flash Hard-SPL (Automatic flash)
4. Received error message about non-commercial use.
5. Selected Yes (would like to make donation)
6. Was taken to Olipro->Creations(&Unlockers); - RhodiumW Hard-SPL and selected Donate With PayPal
7. Logged into PayPal and made payment.
8. Repeated steps 1, 2, 3.
9. Continued unlock process, completed successfully.

The reason I started this thread is because I spent so much time looking for the specific answers. I agree, the developers have not been helpful to the community as of late. They should update all their posts and indicate that after the first free unlock, you are likely going to be required to make payment if you'd like a speedy unlock if your device is blacklisted.

I thought the developers deserved a little retribution.

It's OT, but can you give me a link to putting WP7 on a TP2? tnx!

Re: For everyone pissed at Olipro & cmonex...Hard-SPL
 

That's never going to happen bro... Check the MS hardware requirements... I think the only one the TP2 meets is the headphone jack requirement. LOL.

Yes, I know all that, but OP said it was, so thought I'd ask... :joker:

Oh DUH - when OP said "running Windows 7" OP meant on desktop, not on tp2.. DUH.

:oops:

im having trouble unlocking :( when its time for my tp2 to enter sspl (the black screen) my tp2 freezes and the hspl says there is a usb connection error... ive also tried the manual sspl with the same results. im using windows 7 64bit, wmdc 6.1 and the latest hspl. can someone help me out here? im itching to flash my first rom :cool:

Re: For everyone pissed at Olipro & cmonex...Hard-SPL
 

do you have a ROM on your SD card? remove it.

Can you try a different pc? Maybe a 32bit machine? Make sure all firewall/anti-virus software are disabled. Follow all the steps exactly.

i flashed mine on WIN 7 64-bit with no problems, so that shouldnt be an issue for him..

try turning off OC?? @ puff

Re: For everyone pissed at Olipro & cmonex...Hard-SPL
 

thanks for the advice guys! ill give it another shot once im back around a computer. i was overclocked at the time. i did disable antivirus but not completely, i just clicked proceed when it said there was a threat, but will also try with it completely disabled. and i also have the stock sprint rom .nbh on my sd. so the stuff you guys said could be a problem. thanks for the help, now i just have to try and get back to that computer. in the mean time i will do everything you guys said and try to enter sspl manually and see what it does. thanks again guys!

EDIT: i removed the rom, turned off oc and still couldnt enter sspl manually...

if there's a valid rom on the sd card and you go through the tri-color screen - that's the one that will be flashed - and it will give you an error in the middle (if you think you're flashing from the PC) and seem to stop flashing, but wait a minute and it will continue and finish and that's the rom you will have -

voice of experience
while trying to flash stock via PC while having energy rom on sd card - it re-flashed the energy rom while it looked like it was flashing from the PC - until half way through - then it gives you that USB error - and drops the usb connection - which it wasn't using anyway.. LOL

LET IT CONTINUE FLASHING UNTIL IT'S DONE!!!!!!!!!

you know eric... this did occur when the progress bar on the phone was around 50%... i didnt think to let the phone set a few more mins to see what happened since it said connection error. i will play around with it more when i can get to another computer...
