Everyone was a Newb once and its VERY daunting figuring out how to flash your first Rom, what order to do it in and thinking if you get it wrong you will brick your nice new phone. I have put together an *Easy Guide* for flashing the Raphael/ Fuze to try and make it easier to update your phone. I hope this is useful to the community.
Before you start, backup anything on your phone that you might want to keep after the new Rom has been flashed because all contacts/ emails/ texts/ notes/ Internet BookMarks/ ect. WILL be lost!!
PimBackup is good and free (copy any mms attachments to your storage card or computer seperately)
***THIS TUTORIAL IS FOR THE GSM RAPHAEL'S ONLY!!! DO NOT USE WITH CDMA VERSIONS***
If your phone has a SIM Card Slot then its a GSM Model. Carry on reading.
If it has no SIM Card then its CDMA and you should not use this procedure.
**USE THE
WIKI FOR EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR RAPHAEL**
*ONCE YOU HAVE FLASHED A HARDSPL ITS PERMANENT. YOU DONT NEED TO DO IT AGAIN WHEN FLASHING NEW ROMS OR RADIOS*
*DO NOT start another process while the flashing process is taking place*
*DO NOT click off of the status bar... Let it stay in the foreground*
*DO NOT let the Screensaver activate*
(any of these can lead to a bad flash and possibly brick your phone)
1. YOUR DEVICE MUST HAVE AT LEAST 50% BATTERY POWER FIRST BEFORE ATTEMPTING EACH STAGE
2. FLASH HARDSPL
Flashing via ActiveSync with USB Lead (thanks to OliNex)
1. Download
Hard-SPL package and unzip it to your Hard Drive. Make sure it's launched from a local drive (not through network drive, etc.)
2. Your Phone MUST be Synced with PC in Windows Mobile!
3. Run RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3.exe,
4. Follow steps in the RUU (Rom Update Utility), check device for prompts after PC shows loading bar.
5. It should go to a black screen now.
6. SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done.
7. To confirm you installed it correctly, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) and verify the screen shows 1.90.OliNex.
**To enter Bootloader and check HardSPL version; with the device turned on, press and hold the volume down button, then press the reset button with the stylus. Release the volume down button when bootloader tricolour screen appears**
NOTE 1: You will not see the SPL version during normal boot, that is the OS version, not SPL!
NOTE 2: Anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL automatically, please copy SSPLManual.exe from the download to the device and run it. Once the screen is black, run RUU manually from the PC.
NOTE 3: This is an unsigned Hard-SPL. no limitations on flashing ROMs or radio packages. Also, this has overwrite protection, if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty reasons, go *
HERE*
NOTE 4: DO NOT use this RUU for anything other than SPL flashing (i.e. hardspl or stock spl restore)!!! If you want to flash some other rom, then use customruu from *
HERE*
3. SIM AND CID UNLOCK.
Note: You do not need to SIM or CID Unlock your phone to flash a new Rom.
If, however you want to flash Diamond/ Blacksone Radios OR use your phone on a different Network then you MUST Unlock your phone.
