Re: Simple steps to flashing your own rom
 

really dont take this the wrong way... but that's a lot of red
check out the first post this thread and see how dharvey uses diff colors, like yellow,white,black,etc - yeah i know its time consuming to edit but it really looks good... i've found that when using red if you dont bold it, it doesn't look good w/ the darkblue background...

also size is your friend, when trying to get a point/warning across :D
hey it's your call what colors you use... just another friendly suggestion

Yes. I do have some questions and confusion about SD rom flashing. I've flashed several roms via usb to my 6700 and recently to my 6800 and it's never failed to be a headache. So the potential to bypass those problems and flash via the SD route is very inviting.

But I have a few points of confusion after reading this thread and GaMedic's tutorial on the subject.

1. Does the unlocker file (I'm using the nueSPL-2.47) need to be run only once to unlock your phone, or does it need to be run each time you flash a new rom? (I suppose another way of asking this is, "Does the phone re-lock itself after each new ROM is flashed?)

2. I installed the new radio (3.42.50) via SD and it's working fine. And installed a new 5067 kitchen via SD and it's working OK, but I need to re-cook the ROM with some different features and reflash. However I haven't yet been able to accomplish the re-flash. I can get to the bootloader screen (SPL-2.40), but when I put the ROM in the SD card's root directory and try to flash it (pwr/cam/reset) the tricolor screen goes away for an instant, during which time the gray screen says "loading," but then the tri-color instantly returns and the phone just sits there, seemingly doing nothing. I'm obviously doing something wrong...I just can't seem to grasp what it is!

O great ones, take pity on your uneducated fellow mogul-traveler and enlighten me.

1 once your mogul is unlocked its unlocked till you run the relocker
1a nuespl is version 2.47 so you are probably running olipro and not the nuespl you install nuespl by running the exe on your phone not the sd card but the phone memory. (your memory card will get wiped if you dont have it already formated to fat 32 so make sure you back it up. it will format your card.

2 are you renaming the nbh file to TITAIMG.nbh ? I dont know if its case sensitive but I always did it uppercase TITAIMG and lowercase .nbh

well I hope that solved your problem, sent a pm if you still have issues let me know

Re: Simple steps to flashing your own rom
 

this thread is way too cool. it should be labeled as the advanced flashing. there is another thread that uses directions for o/s builder. that should be labeled as novice/getting your feet wet. i used both of these threads to flash 2 phones with some headaches as a noob starting out, but got it done none the less with some extra tips here and there.
i also found that 3.35.04 radio dorks with the verizon cell reception. for whats its worth--
i now have 6.1 with fast locking gps
per this thread i'm getting ready to cook my own rom and make my phone mine!

Thanks all

Thanks for the clarification, cornelious2. Your post helped a lot. I built another Kitchen and flashed the new 5067 successfully. Thanks for the help!

Glad I could help

I just ordered Sprint's HTC Touch so I should get it tomorrow. I've been browsing these forums for the last couple of days so I would know what to do when I get it. I still have questions, but I think the majority of them will be answered once I sit down and start flashing. Being my first PPC, I must admit I'm a little nervous... in the same way you get nervous when you're flashing your PC's BIOS.

Mainly just wanted to say thanks for this thread and holding on to it for later.
