This is the crux of the problem. The HSPL program will only run from one IP address but donating is supposed to fix the problem. You can open a ticket by following the instructions here at the top of the page or run the HSPL on another computer perhaps? Untill the device is HSPL unlocked you won't be able to flash.

My device is properly synchronized but I'm not entirely sure what radio I need to turn on, I had my phone on CDMA only but changed it to Global for flashing the HardSPL. I tried flashing with the enablerapinew.cab as well but got the same result.

When I try manual flashing, I get error 246 that my device is not responding and then says that I have unlocked another device, even after donating and I have not unlocked another device.

I also tried flashing by going into bootloader mode first and then running RUU.exe but the progress bar hung at 0% and I got error 262 where I had to recover the phone. I tried flashing with each method without a sim card or SD card in the phone as well as with a PC with XP and a PC with Vista. Any input would be appreciated.

A couple of things...

1) Are you connected to the internet when you are trying to run the HSPL? Because you have to have an active internet connection while you run it.

2) Are you right clicking and using the "Run as Administrator" option? For Win Vista and 7 I think you have to use that option.

And just to clarify -you are saying that you HAVE NOT unlocked another device?

1) Yes, I am connected to the internet on both the XP and Vista PC.

2) Yes, in Vista I am running RUU.exe as Administrator.

I have never unlocked another device before.

Update: I just hard reset my phone and automatic flashing ran through without any problems.

-Thanks for the help

Hi Guys,

I got a replacement Imagio because the keys were stuck on teh old one (surprise surprise) and now HardSPL won't run saying I've activated another phone. Anyone know how to resolve this issue?

Yes- here's what you need to do. Try again. After you get the error -there should be an option to donate. Donate (I think it is 4 Euro/$7 American minimum). It should work after the donation is made. At least that is what I have heard reported by several people in your same situation.

And remember -you need an active internet connection while running the HSPL.

Good luck. Please report back for the sake of others that may have the same issue in the future.

LOL, this post is starting to sound like a broken record! If people read (not much, just 12 pages compared to ROM posts, 1000+ pages) you can clearly see the same response over and over...

I donated when this first came out, and now i cant use it to unlock my replacement phone. i put in a ticket and pmd cmonex. i tried changing my msid, and i even tried using on a different computer and a different wireless network.

i understand having to donate to use it twice, but why should people who already donated have to donate again to use it? seems a little f'd up.

and yeah i know its only 7 bucks but you know what, i am working through college and honestly every penny counts so dont go telling me not to be so cheap please.

Then switch carriers.... Verizon is the most expensive (well maybe not now with AT&T's nasty new data plan! LOL)

You know Boost Mobile (CDMA) has $50/month plans, with unlimited data.... Just an idea...
