I think I killed my elf0100, Help ?

I don't mind paying someone who would help me revive this device
The device is a HTC ELF0100 locked to movistar spain
I tried to unlock it with the following files
Cert_SPCS.cab
EnableRapi.cab
Touch_Unlock.zip
I got a 8 digit code that would not work.
I then tried unlocking with ELF_USPL-v1.zip. This is where things went wrong. The device did not upgrade ok.
Now the device just shows the operator logo for a few seconds then switches off.
It sometimes goes into booloader mode. And I could gather the following information
IPL 2.20.0002
SPL 1.11.0000
Please help, I just want to revive this device now. I don't care about unlocking !

Anyone with suggestions ? I have no idea what to do next

Same happened to my phone. i had to contact HTC support. thay sorted this out for me. i think you should do the same.. but dont tell them that you tried unlocking, otherwise they wont help you..

Thanks bro for their contact details. Normally they are very unco-operative with phones that have been tampered with or if they know you tried to unlock it. Also we are near the weekend and I need this phone working before monday.
Now I really do not want to unlock it, just wanna revive it.
I cannot even go a hard reset now

This should help.

Ok bro, I'll try this and before that let me just thank you !

you have flashed wrong spl and ipl, let me know you want an english rom or spanish rom. you will have to flash original rom, in order to revive your device, is it with 64 mb RAM or 128 MB ram, then i will let you know what to do.

Thanks bro. I need a spanish rom. I really do not know if it's 64 or 128 ram. Do I have to open the device?

go to following forum- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379034 and download following rom--RUU_Elfin_DOPODASIA_WWE_2.20.707.1B_4.1.13.51_03.0 7.90_BLUE_Ship_Reduced.exe, connect device to computer via usb cable and press camera button and power button together, a tricolor bootloader will appear on device screen, now run the downloaded rom. This is english rom, you can search any original spanish rom if available in above post and flash it afterwards, but initially bring your device to life with the rom i have mentioned above.

Ok, gagandeepbains. I'll be back with the results. Thanks bro!

Thanks bro that worked like a charm! Any idea how I get the spanish language back? Now the device is in english
I regret not reading before doing what I did and going through the entire mess.
Thanks again mate

you can try ROM 2.20.214.1 ESN (Windows Mobile 6.1 - SO CE 19214 - Build 19214 aku 1.0.4) or any other you like at -- http://www.htcspain.com/foro-f30/guia-de-roms-para-htc-equot-touch-sequot-t4576.html , but you must cid unlock device before flashing.

Thanks for the quick reply bro. I tried Cert_SPCS.cab, EnableRapi.cab, and Touch_Unlock.zip files which gave me an incorrect code.
Any other way to unlock this? Any way to change language if I cannot unlock the device ?

go to following page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408637, and download file-USPL_2.28.0000.zip . Unzip this file in a folder on desktop and replace RUU_Signed.nbh file in RUU folder with that of downloaded rom's RUU_Signed.nbh file. install enable_rapi and cert_spc files already with you to device memory, soft reset device and remove its sim card and memory card. Run the elf-uspl.exe file extracted in folder on your desktop after connecting the powered on device to computer, and follow on screen instructions.

Hey I followed your instructions, I got errors on the first two occassions. Process completed successfully the third time. The handset is still locked with language english.

Htc Touch Find Aka Pola200 Stuck On Bootloader

Hi to all i have received this Htc touch find aka Pola200 that stuck on bootmode,
POLA200

CPLD-2
someone can help me to restore orginal state it's a branded O2

HI, if i´m right you got a Polaris with spl installed correctly but the OS -rom is not flashed correctly?
I copied this from the "help with flashing" thread...
How to install cooked rom.
Download the cooked rom, and unpack it to a folder.
STEP MANUALLY to bootloader. (Press and hold camera button and press reset)
You will see a tricolor screen on you PDA, and you have to see SPL-2.20.Olinex string. IF YOU NOT SEE THIS DO NOT TRY TO FLASH ROM!!!
Now connect your PDA to PC.
From the Hard-spl folder, run RomUpdateUtility.exe, or Rom.exe, (Next, Next….)
The screen will be grey, and a few minutes later the new rom will be installed.
(After rom flash Hard Reset is strongly recommended)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So pls CHECK if you see the Olinex string.... make a screenshot if u´re unsure...
IF THERE is any question, ask before you try to flash or s.th.
Here´s the manual for flashing Hardspl:
How to install HARD-SPL! (You MUST do it first and once!)
Download Hard-spl, and unpack it to a folder.
Connect your PDA to PC, and be sure Active Sync can connect to it.
From the Hard-spl folder, run RomUpdateUtility. (push Next, Next, and Update…)
Your will see a tricolor screen on your PDA.
It will ask you to Replug your usb Cable. DO IT!
The screen will be grey, and a few seconds later hard-spl will be installed.
If you want to check it, step manually to bootloader (Press and hold camer button and press reset), and you have to see SPL-2.20.Olinex string on the tricolor screen.

Its the M-Amine 2.0 FINAL Rom... I testet it already in GER and think its one of the best here.!
The Flash-Manual is in short-form in my post above, in think in the Thread of the Rom too, and there will also be some very detailed instructions here in this forum at all.

[GUIDE] Step by step instruction to install/flash a custom rom.

Hello all,
There are many new users who want to install/upgrade to a custom rom but totally don't know from where they should start. So, they ask the same question again and again in irrelevant threads. Here is a very short guide which will help you to install/upgrade to a custom rom and will hopefully prevent newbie's from asking the same question.
@All New users: There is no problem in asking question and everybody is ready to help you but many ppl just don't go through the pages even tho the question has been answered several times in a single thread.
Things to be known:-
1. Flashing The term flashing means installing or upgrading. When we say Flashing a rom that simple means we are installing the rom. But sometimes you would have seen in forums ppl saying flash Hard spl or so. Here too flashing simply means installing.
2. Basic information On powering up your phone the basic information displayed on the screen are: ONBL version, SPL version, GSM or Radio version and OS version.
For flashing a custom rom we only need to know about SPL for now.
3. SPL Here is the description of SPL by krazy_about_technology,
SPL or Second Program Loader is a part of your phone's firmware. Its responsible for both loading of operating system and it is also used by operating system for some low level tasks. By Default, HTC and Other Manufacturers too, design it in such a way that it does not allows custom ROMs to be flashed in the phone. It does no by checking for the Digital Signature of HTC on roms. So it need to be patched in order to flash custom ROMs made by chefs in this forum.
4. H-SPL As you can see in the above description that SPL are designed in such a way that it doesn't allow you to flash custom roms. So we need a H-SPL ( Hard SPL). When we flash a HSPL it simply patches the current SPL or in other words it unlocks the device for flashing custom roms.
The flashing process
1. Flashing HSPL First flash HSPL, head over to this thread ( here ) for all the instructions and downloads of HSPL.
2. ROM Now after flashing HSPL choose a custom rom. Almost all the custom roms are compressed commonly with winrar or 7zip.
So, if you dont have winrar or 7zip to uncompress the package get any one of them. My suggestion is get 7zip from here.
After uncompressing the custom rom package there are two cases,
Case 1: There is a single *.nbh file, generally the rom file is named as RUU_signed.nbh ( but remember it may be of any other name too, just it will be of *.nbh format ). In this case you need some additional tools to flash this file into ur device.
How to flash the nbh file (this only guides you to flash nbh not unlocking ur device (hspl)​
Here is a short method.
1. Download this Installation package (295 kb). here
2. Extract the above downloaded package anywhere on pc (say desktop)
3. Copy the downloaded nbh to the extracted folder. (Here the extracted folder name is Installation package)
4. Double click on ROMUpdateUtility.exe
5. Follow the onscreen instructions.
Thats it!
Case 2: After uncompressing the custom rom package you will see there are additional files with the rom file. These additional files are nothing but the tools required to flash the rom into your device. So in this case you don't need any additional files and you can directly for for flashing.
Flashing the rom:
For XP
1. Download and install Microsoft Activesync 4.5 (the latest) if you don't have it in your pc. It can be downloaded from here.
2. Connect your Device with PC via USB cable. As soon as you connect you would see a pop up window on your device. Probably there will be three options, you have to select the option which is Activesync.
Now you should see in your PC Activesync connected, if it didn't sync open Activesync go to connection setting and select the port through which your device is connected. Now re plug-in your device.
3. Run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe remember the flashing tool should be in a folder where the rom file is also present. Follow the on-screen instructions. Thats it.
For vista/windows 7
1. Download and install Microsoft Device centre from here.
2. Connect your Device with PC via USB cable. As soon as you connect you would see a pop up window on your device. Probably there will be three options, you have to select the option which is Activesync.
Now you should see in your PC Device center is connected, if it didn't sync open Device center go to connection setting and select the port through which your device is connected. Now re plug-in your device.
3. Run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe remember the flashing tool should be in a folder where the rom file is also present. Follow the on-screen instructions. Thats it.
Essential thing to be known:-
1. Bootloader mode Knowing how to enter into Bootloader mode is one of the most essential thing to be known for a opal user (windows mobile users).
How to enter?
There are two way to enter into bootloader mode.
1. If you device is on, open your device's back cover. Press the soft reset button ( red button ) using stylus. As soon as you press it, immediately press the volume down button and keep holding it until you see a tri-color screen on your device's screen.
2. If your device is off, press the power button as soon as the device vibrates immediately press volume down button and keep holding it until you see a tri-color screen on your device's screen.
Uses?
If you flashed a damaged rom, you would be no longer able to use your device. In that case enter into bootloader mode. And flash a different rom.

Thanks
Explain the excellent and easy to understand, good work Thank you

Iam glad that you liked it. I hope now ppl will refer this thread and not rom threads. Ppl can ask all the question that they ask on other threads here.

Nice Guide
You've done a great job with this guide. Thanks. I've already referenced it on another post.

i have hard spl my device...i've instales the rom from this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=680164
after that i;ve tried to unlock my phone...is from austria t-mobile...
when i've tried to use some programs to unlock the phone, the progress bar went to 7% and the a windows pups and said that there is a 260 error...
the i instaled again the 6.1 rom froms here: http://ptxserver.net/blog/?page_id=37
the i've tried again to unlock the phone but same error...
but when i started to put the first rom on mi device...opal v 6.5..i have the same problem...can someone explain how to unlock the phone and to have the first rom on my device(opal version 6.5 d25)...pls...

Ruch0 your question is not at all clear, if you want someone to help you then please make it little more clear.
Is your phone sim locked, if so then it is always said not to flash a custom rom.
According to ur question u say u have done hspl and installed a rom then trying to unlock the rom. Here by unlocking do you mean sim unlocking?

to make a better point i want to get rid off the 260 error...because i have found a lots of programs that will sim unlock the phone...
know i am trying to use this:
1. download hardspl v7 from the first post.
2. extract ruu_signed.nbh and rename it to HERMIMG.nbh
3. copy it to a microsd card, make sure the card is formatted as fat32
4. download sspl-herm from here
5. extract SSPL-HERM.exe and copy it to your phone.
6. insert sd card and run sspl-herm.exe on the phone.
7. you should see the tri-color screen and then it should change to this
8. press power button to start flashing
9. reset when you get the msg that its done.
but i cant start the sspl-herm.exe from my mobile...

LOL, that really made be to laugh. First of all are you sure that you have a HTC Touch Viva (opal) because from your description it is clear that you are using herms and having some probs. Well, my friend this section is ONLY for the device called HTC Touch Viva (opal). So asking here is a total wastage of time.
You should immediately head over to herms section and ask the ppl over there. Visit here.

The main thing you have to check is whether your phone is synced with ur PC via activesync/windows mobile device centre. If you are sure that it is synced then also not working then there might be some other problem.
About remote access don't worry there is a software called Team viewer it will bypass all firewalls.

Yeah, Jagan sorry, I know the team viewer, tomorrow we can use this,
thank you for ur help.

Can u help me today?

Need Help
Hi Jagan
I have HTC Touch Viva purchased recently in India.
Software : Win Mobile 6.1 Professional Build : 19971.1.2.6
ROM Version : 1.35.720.2 WWE
Radio Version : 03.37.90
Protocol Version : 4.1.13.74
I tried to update its OS to Win Mobile 6.5 first time.
I followed your instruction in Post 1. But I am unable to do that.
First I tried HSPL 2, but it didn't work. I got 202 error.
I downloaded the ROM from the following Link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629257
ROM update also failed.
While updating, it showed the message like
Current ROM Version 1.35.xx...
New ROM Version : 1.27.xx...
To update the OS to 6.5, I need to do any thing else? Where I am going wrong? Plz help.

ivk: caioofaria has too similar problems that is error 202, its like in some pc its not coming and in some its coming. I will check that out again today in caioofaria's pc.
I will post result of my testing today, if anyone has a suggestion post it here.

For now iam assuming that ivk and caioofaria is not able to flash hspl because of there new default os. I will try to get a solution for this,
But if anyone has suggestion be sure to post it here.

Need Help - Update
Hi Jagan,
Little bit improvement in my problem.
The HSPL completed. Now the spl version : 1.26.0.0
Again when I try to update the ROM, getting Update Error 270.
Tried on different laptops(win 7). But getting the same problem.
Thanks.

No the spl version should be something like this 2.00 cmonex
That means you have done hspl yet. Actually i think i got the prob of the error, when you u try to do hspl and ur screen goes tri color then your pc will or i should say must install a driver it will be something like "Pocket pc syn" if its not doing then hspl will not get flashed. Just one again try to do hspl in windows 7 then when you are in tri color screen see in ur notification area below that some driver is getting installed.

Great Work!
Wow, fantastic work! I cant wait to see what great ROMs you guys come up with for Windows Phone 7, keep it up!

Anyone confirm it works?
I was stuck at 0% then restart device.
Thanks.

Just by exchanging the imgfs :O

So in fact I could try the same with my T-Mobile Germany branded rom, by lets say swapping the imgfs with that from the generic unbranded rom?
Great job

so i was asking if someone could provide me with smplified way to install a new rom using HSPL
Thanks in advance and sorry for z long topic ​

basically, flashing a winmo phone is an easy process:
1. bootloader mode (power on with VOL- button pressed)
2. flashing
3. hard reset
however, there are a few preparations if your device was never flashed before, you need to install hspl on your phone and make sure you have the correct driver installed on your pc. the driver for the device in bootloader mode might vary from the driver used to sync the device, when switched on.
1. the driver:
if you have windows xp, connect the phone in bootloader mode and look, whether it changes from serial to usb on the bootloader screen, you should be fine by then.
on windows vista/7 you connect the device in bootloader mode, and might actually take some time for it to download another driver from windows update. if it changes from serial to usb, first try to connect using mtty, before attempting to flash, because the connection might not yet be stable and you might want to have a look at the thread (ref updating the usb drivers).
2. hspl
to quote the dummies' guide thread:
(HSPL2a) Place your phone into its bootloader.
(HSPL2b) Run HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe from the download in step (HSPL1a) and follow it as normal.
(HSPL2c) If successful, go to step HSPL3. If the flashing process sits at 0% and you get Error [260] connection after some time, go to step (Troubleshooting).
pretty easy, in other words, just connect the device in bootloader mode and run the package on the pc, it will unlock the spl and flash hspl.
if all went well, you are ready to flash, download any rom you like from the rom development section, and flash it using the .exe file that comes with them, might be updater.exe, blackstone RUU.exe or something else. if your rom download only consists of an .nbh file, like ruu_signed.nbh or BLACIMG.nbh, download advanced RUU and use it to flash.
alternatively, if this is to complicated for you as a beginner, you can rename the rom file to BLACIMG.nbh (if it is not already named like that) and put it in the root of the sd card, by then entering bootloader mode, it should find the rom and give you detailed instructions on how to install it.
last step, hard reset, as described in the original manual, switch on, while pressing VOL- and VOL+ and follow the instructions onscreen.

download this, extract all the files, take micro SD out of device, connect device to active sync and then run HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe on your pc, it will now start to flash a new SPL, when complete confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen! {hold volume down and press the reset button under the back cover}) now verify the screen shows 1.56.OliNex, which is the new Hard-SPL version.
when complete you will be able to flash any rom to your touch hd/blackstone
note: if you do not flash a new rom you will have graphical issues with the current rom, however this gets fixed as soon as you flash a new rom
if you have any trouble, click me and go to the first post
good luck
