Use Android Flasher.
Make sure you have the modified HBOOT USB drivers installed otherwise the final stage of the command won't complete.

You need S-OFF too btw which I assume you already have!
You need to S-OFF
It's really easy.
Just follow the top section of http://alpharev.nl/ to S-OFF and then you can flash your splash.
You don't have to flash the HBOOT patches at the bottom.
Boot with the cd (burn the iso first) and then when prompted connect the phone to the PC, the ISO will do the rest.
It will be S-OFF after that!
It's a known bug
Use wireless transfer instead, it will speed through at 2-4MB/sec
Done!!! Thanks
Now to flash a new splash

OK, somethings not right, i cant get the Android Flasher to work in windows. I just get an error and windows telling me that the program has stopped running?
I now have S-OFF because the splash screen has changed to the http://alpharev.nl/ one.
Any ideas? I have noted that the directory /data/local doesnt exist does that mean anything?

WHat do you peeps use for wireless transfer?
Anyone got an easy to follow guide to rooting? Found one on Modaco but its from 14th June 2010, is this still the one to use?
Whats a good rom to put on? This is for my brothers phone.
Thanks
