How To: Install the Hard SPL

=================================================================================

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK / RUIN YOUR PHONE IN ANY WAY.
BASIC COMPUTER SKILLS REQUIRED
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT ROOT IS ... YOU PROBABLY DON'T NEED IT
=================================================================================

PROCEED WITH CAUTION

Installation of the Hard SPL

This will allow you to apply flash images from other regions (like UK on US phones, and vice versa), create full backups of your phone, install the latest build from the Android source, and usually resurrect your phone if it is "bricked".

Location of the Hard SPL: http://android-roms.googlecode.com/files/splhard1_update_signed.zip

1 Power off your phone.
2 Press and hold Home and then press Power to boot up into recovery mode.
3 You will now enter recovery mode. You should see an exclamation.
4 If you do not see a menu / text on screen, press ALT+L to show the menu.
5 Press ALT+S to apply the update from the SD card.
6 After the update is complete, hold Home + Back to restart.

- You've now applied the Hard SPL to your phone -

Next we will install the latest Custom ROM.

To Continue on please go to Installing the Latest Custom ROM

I followed all the steps and tried everything I could think of but when it comes to installing the "Hard SPL" it will not take the update because it says that the files do not exsist in my sdcard directory. Any suggestions?

Rename the update file "update" instead of "update.zip"

(from the Cyanogenmod forums)

No gemerekli you have to update the SPL before flashing the rom.
