Doesn't matter if it's 3% thats's just general. "try the files again as it doesn't always run properly first time"
Am searching for posts error 260 have you rebooted comp tryed differeent usb port?
This one the sudgested worked on error 260 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459008&highlight=error+260

i cant find how to fix it. still got error 260

1) Clean Storage in Accessories, hit 1234, and let it do its thing. If you have a sdCard, remove it before doing so.
2) Attach the phone to ActiveSync, unzip SDA Unlock, run it, once you unlocked the phone, reboot it.
3) Once the phone re-connected to ActiveSync, paste the SurrealAppUnlock into the phone, open the cab and install it.
4) Now, if you want to run Kavana's, do the following.
5) Open USPL-CID Bypass, once the phone is in Bootmode as in, white screen, run the RUU. Once it restars, let it load and then you can reinsert your sd.
Let us know.

still got error 260

help please

......lols....

Have you gone into your USB settings on your phone and unchecked "Enable Advanced Network Functionality"?

It don't matter...
ROM Flashing is extremely complicated and only few of us were chosen to be able to do so... and so he can only send me his Dash... he will then be free of such worries.

What do you do if the unlocker errors half-way through?

I actually have a new phone coming today because I had no idea what to do and when I called neither did Verizon.
I seen the GPS fix thread, downloaded all the necessary files, ran the first unlocker (.40) and it errored half-way through the process, I figured big deal I'll just run it again..
Well, my USB would show on the phone screen but in the bootload mode the unlocker programs couldnt detect my phone at all and I couldn't get out of bootload mode whether I hit soft reset or took out the battery. So I decided to try going ahead an upgrading, I tried the next step on the list (sprint rom) but the upgrade would error as well, then I tried the verizon one, error, and the just tried jumping back to the NFSFan ROM and it didn't even begin to error it said it wasn't allowed or something.
Anyways, I had no idea what to do... took it in to the store, they looked at it for awhile then told me to call a number, I tried the number and they attempted to wipe it from their side and couldnt do anything so they told me they'd send another one being I was still in my 1-year warranty.
Is this how you brick a phone? Having an error during an unlocker/upgrade? Or could I have fixed this if I asked here before I sent for a new 1? I don't mind because I'm hype for a brand new phone, I just wonder if it can be fixed incase this ever happens again.

to do the gpsfix you have to use coke .40, its not like its some old outdated thing the thread is from august everybodys been using it, all i want to know is if theres no return once an error occurs in the middle of an unlocker?

There is a fix
what is showing on the bootloader screen for the unlocker?
Also you may want to reflash a shipped ROM. I have had this happen on both Titans and Vogues and reflashing from the bootloader screen always solves the problem.

I'm assuming you have to flash via the SD card right? Because I tried doing it through the USB and all the ROMs would error because the unlocker never fully finished, I mean before all this my phone was unlocked by the 2.31 and I had the newest NFSFan running I just decided to go back for the GPSFix..
The bootloader screen wasn't froze, it showed the usual..
Upper right corner says "RUUNBH"
Then to the left top it says..
VOGU100
SPL-0.36.0000
CPLD-3
and Serial at the bottom until I put the USB in and it turns to USB.. but it doesn't get picked up by the unlocker if I try to re-run it

I guess I answered my own question.. to fix it I'd have to run the unlocker again from the SD Card so it finish's without error since the USB won't pick up right?
My problem is I've never ran anything from the SD card.. if anyone can tell me how you go about loading up an unlocker or ROM from bootload on the SD I'd appreciate it, this way when I get my new phone if I run into a similar problem I can fix it

Try installing this driver on your XP computer http://www.4shared.com/file/101893703/a59b72a/WindowsHTCdrivers.html if you have Vista let me know and I'll give you a link fvor that one. It should then allow you to communicate via USB. Also to answer your next question on flashing from the SD. It is simple you copy the NBH file from a ROM to Root directory of a FAT32 card 2 gb or less. Rename the file to VOGUIMG.nbh place the card into PPC and place into bootloader mode. Then follow the instructions.

All you do is put the .nbh file on the root directory of the memory card(use a newly formatted/clean card). It may delete anything else on the card while flashing.
I would take out the battery. Put in the SD card then turn the phone on. If, like you say, you are stuck in bootloader mode then it should start flashing as soon as it powers up.

Thanks everyone, I received my new phone this was mainly incase it happened again, but I also figured out why I ran into my problem..
During the unlocker I thought I knew the process being I'd done it multiple times, I skipped the part where I unplug the phone from USB and plug it back in so it's no longer connected with ActiveSync... thats why my unlocker error'd, so make sure you don't do that lol
What was messed up is my computers been acting like a piece of ****, it wouldnt even read my SD card so that I could put a file on it, but I don't think I'd wanna do it that way I have all my stuff on my SD card if it erased it I'd have been pissed..
ActiveSync does work, for awhile I thought the USB was only charging my phone because my new one wouldnt pick-up ActiveSync.. no idea why.. but if I plug it in and wait around 10 minutes it finally connects.

Touch Pro ROMs on Diamond?

Hi everyone!
I've been thinking...The Touch Pro and the Diamond are almost identical(except for Pro's hardware qwerty and Internal Memory/SD),but available ROMs differ significantly.So before trying anything I wanted to ask...Is there any way to flash a ROM for Touch Pro to Diamond?Without bricking or ruining it of course!

You should try it yourself - hope you're lucky enough to be the 1st who can flash Touch Pro to Diamond :wink:

But with the possibility of bricking my device?

no that wont happen, you will just be possible to flash a new diamond stock rom will it brick and then a custom rom
please try and give us feedback

Tried with default RaphaelWrapper RUU and flashing failed saying something about invalid model ID(obviously).Will try with diamond's custom RUU and report back.

Yes...Now that you mentioned it!
And how exactly do I flash a ROM from the internal storage?I renamed the nbh file to DIAMING.nbh and copied it to the root of my internal storage.Then I reseted while holding volume down key,got into bootloader(or whatever that screen which says what SPL I am using is called) but then nothing,it just stays there...What next?

oke you press: THE RED SOFT RESET BUTTON + VOL DOWN + BACK BUTTON (THE BUTTON WITH THE ARROW ON IT)
then you will be taken to the screen to flash

Right,it does try to flash,but I have encountered a minor issue...It says something about MoviNand MFG(Internal storage I guess?),goes past that and gets to a screen saying "Trigger USB Host...",I wait for a few seconds and then a message with red letters appears right below that says something about retrying with the usb...Then it goes all over again,but some distorted lines appear on the screen...And no matter how long I let it stay there it repeats again and again!Now what?Is that an "omen" of failure?
EDIT
Might it have something to do with the ROM's pagepool being at 24mb?It's a windows 6.5 ROM and as HELICOPTER88 has said,the diamond has less RAM than the pro...Trying again with 12mb pagepool.
EDIT 2
Nope...Same s**t again!It says "Retry connect USB"...And I think that for a fraction of a second it says "No Image Found"...

Also,I have no idea on how to use MTTY and am a little afraid to tamper with my new Windows 7 installation which was a bane getting it to be how I wanted!Can anyone else try?Maybe someone of you is luckier than me!

Wrong cpuid

Hello,
My A100 is stuck at the android logo, but never loads.
I have tried the EEUs that is available here (thanks), but because I can only connect in APX mode, the CPUID.txt file is never created. Thus when I enter my correct CPUID the program says it is incorrect.
Can anyone upload the contents from the CPUID.txt file, or perhaps recommend a tutorial on using NVFLASH included in the Image folder of the EEUs file?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as my a100 is a total brick.

where is the file located? I have spent 15 minutes looking for it.

Hi. Thanks for looking.
According to all of the tutorials I have read it should be in a folder called 7zXXXX.tmp in c:\users\(username)\appdata\local\temp
Unless my info is outdated and te program doesn't create it anymore, but according to the A500 forum you have to enter the CPUID into the CPUID.txt file when the temp directory is created, WHILE the program is still running.

I was looking on the phone.
Sorry, I do not have anything in my tmp directory. I have a script that clears my tmp folder every night.

Thanks for checking
The tmp directory disappears once you close the eeus program.

Hello,
I have a same problem after rewrite my framework-res.apk.
in EUU a put correct CPUID, but the programs said it's wrong.
also i can't find CPUID.txt in this directory.
I reflash my A100 with update.zip, just put it on SD card through card reader.
now it's work fine.
Sorry for my english.

I am unable to flash using the update.zip method, as I always get the message:
recovery verified failed. spin forever (in red letters).

i've this problem too. No way to solve it. Someone have found a solution?

I've solved putting update.zip into the SDcard and running recovery at startup.
Before using this system the tab remains with the android symbol with the " ! " inside it and nothing happen. After that, I've erased any data in the SD, placed update.zip in it and powered up using power button+left volume, or right, I don't remamber. But finally it works.

I tried that as well with a freshly erased sd card 2gb. Still get the recovery verified failed in red letters.
Anyone? Help please.

Are you pressing the correct combination at startup? I've seen that there are several combination. Have you tried pushing hardly both volumeup&down?

Yes. I did. I always get the dreaded recovery verified failed. spin forever.

How did you get this number anyway? CPUID must be something like this 039061c0424f3417.If you using Windows download USBDeview if your device is been connected to PC before to brick it you will see his CPUID.

already done that

there a way to fix it by creating a goldcard and run the ruu now press ctrl+r and type %temp% once your temp folder loads do a search in the temp folder for rom.zip rename that to to cant remember ill edit this post in a minute with the name you now copy the renamed file to the root of your sdcard and boot the phone as if you were going into hboot leave the phone for half and hour to 45 minutes to be on the safe side you the pull the battery and put it in again now try and boot your phone that worked on my mates wfs lets hope it works for you.
edit: rename it to PG76DIAG.zip its case senseitive.
p.s. most of the custom roms here are for gsm handsents and NOT cdma.

i think i can do it if i could just get into download mode...
none of the methods that i have found are working.
also, i did what the quoted text said and i got "no results match your query" what does it mean by run the ruu... i opened it and just minimized it.
edit: i guess i flashed the wrong ruu... it was probably vm uk, heh heh.

Run the HTC ROM Install
then open "Run"- if with Windows and type %TEMP%
that leads you to the temp dir and then search for a file rom.zip, rename it and put it in you card...

i did exactly that and it still shows no results...
should i redownload the rom and just get the file?
