i was wondering how do you flash Dopod2-fullromupdate.txt.gz file on the xda ftp, i downloaded it and it unzips as a txt file, is it just a rom dump or is it a full rom file? I did a search and could not find anything.
This is just a txt file containing a USB dump, I did some time ago to see the bootloader commands sent by the RUU to the device...
The shipped upgrades are on the wiki:

Thanks for clearing that up for me. have you found any solution for the tri color screen of death.
LOL... it is not a screen of death, it is the bootloader
If your device is stuck on bootloader follow the instructions here:

well for me its a screen of death i tried everthing looked at all the releated posts and nothing works, i think my radio is corrupted, there must be a way to fix it but i don't have a clue.
mtty.exe
is there a command in mtty.exe to totally wipe the device of all info so a fresh rom can be loaded?
If you are stuck on bootloader, to boot the OS again you just need to connect to the bootloader using mtty.exe and type the commands "set 14 0" and "task 8".
Why do you think your radio is corrupted? did you try to unlock your device with universal unlocker? if you did, follow this instructions:
1) Try flashing a new ROM using the 'HERMIMG.nbh' SD card method:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing
(Note that NBH file _must_ match your CID).
If this doesn't work, try to flash a radio only upgrade:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
Hope that helps

Anybody tried this?
These are what I did on my Vodafone V1605 with bl 1.06. Guarantee working. Actually, this's not a new solution. It exists long time ago, but pof remove this file from wiki due to license issue. Some chinese fans downloaded this file before and shared on their forum. I hope pof won't remove this thread since the Downgrade file is from another website.

Great, many thx to you. I'm going to try it on SPL 1.09 now...
I confirm it downgrading SPL 1.09 to 1.04
Does this keep the os in place and change only the boot loader so one would be able to just upgrade the radio?
Will attempt myself.

Yes, it does. I have latest SA HTC firmware with 1.20 radio and SPL 1.04 now.
Confirmed this will allow you to downgrade bootloader only and do a radio only flash.

one question.
my device is stuck on bootloader mode and when I connect to Activesync it does not recognize my device.
is it a problem (I can't try now because I'm at work and I don't have the device by my side)?
I works¡¡. I had installed rom 1.35 and i could downgrade bootloader to 1.04, install radio rom 1.16, get supercid and now i can modify extended rom.
Thanks¡¡¡¡¡

If your tytn is stuck on bootloader 1.06 (can't boot into the OS) and don't have a 1.04 ship rom matching its CID in the wiki, you can't downgrade your bl now. Please be patient.

1. What's the current CID on your device?
2. What version of rom and BootLoader did you use before flashing to HTC 1.35 bl1.09?
3. Did you run pof Hermes unlocker and mtty.exe to make your device SuperCID before flashing to HTC 1.35 bl1.09?

2. 1.04
3. yes
Ok... now this is going to be a work in progress and an answer to most questions...
To all pof, Des and Sleuth have done a great job in getting the tools together so we can flash our devices...
1. To all who want to SuperCID your device no matter what ROM version you have and no matter what Radio BootLoader version you have you can use POF's version 3 unlocker found here http://pof.eslack.org/hermes-unlocker/
2. Once you have SuperCID your device you can now load extracted ExtRom, OS, and radio roms (radio can only be done if you have radio bootloader 107 or less) to do this goto http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_BootloaderMFG
3. For all of those not interested in ROM cooking and flashing cooked ExtROM's all you need to use is des's SSPL tool... just copy it onto your device and run it... the SPL version should say SPL-1.09.des. The tool can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293651
4. Just to clarify... once you have flashed radio bootloader 108 onto your device it is possible to do Extracted Radio only upgrades please read edit 3 below..... to check what radio bootloader version a radio rom has goto http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms and radio only upgraded require SPL 1.04... for instructions on how to flash that goto http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_BootloaderMFG
5. if your device is unusable please refer to here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems
appologies for all the links but thats what the wiki is for guys... lots of reading but it is all worth while in the end...
and if ive missed anything feel free to add...
edit 1... The reason you SuperCID your device is to enable flashing of any SPL Bootloader versions, extracted OS roms, extracted ExtROM's and to an extent Radio ROM's (only if your device has RadioBootloader 107 or less).... but SuperCIDing your device voids the warranty... if your just looking to upgrade your device to a newer ROM and are worried about the warranty just use des's SSPL tool... read point 3 above...
edit 2... the SSPL tool... you need to copy this onto your device while windows mobile is running... if your device is not in a usable state refer to point 5... once its finished copying click on the exe and run it... it will put your device into a 'Service' mode and with bootloader versions IPL-SSPL by Des and SPL-1.09.ds... all you need to do now is choose which shipped original rom you want to use to flash your device with... see here for options http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
edit 3... now who wants the good news woo hoo!!!! i have managed to create an unsigned nbh file and flash it onto my device... now please all follow these details step by step
1. download this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294046
2. download the appropriate Full Shipped ROM from either the Trinity or the Hermes of which you want to rip the Radio from
3. download this http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_NBH
4. extract the RUU_signed.nbh file from the exe using winrar or something
5. open a command prompt and point it to the same folder where you extracted the files you downloaded..
6. run nbhextract to extract the radio rom... delete all other .nb files except for 05_GSM.nb
7. edit the text file for nbhgen and delete all information except for this
HERM100
SuperCID
1.23.707.6
USA
300,05_GSM.nb
8. run nbhgen.. this will generate the nbh file required to flash your device...
9. copy SSPL to your device.. refer to here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293651
10. execute SSPL on your device which will put you into the 'Service' mode,
11. now run the RomUpgradeUT.exe file... and your done!!!!!!!! any questions just ask...

Hello all,
I am a little confused about the issue of going back to BL 0107 if you flash Radio 1.33 + or Rom (say) 2.05 because you end up with BL 0108.
Isn't it true if you use Des's SSPL tool you can flash any ROM, so you can flash an older ROM, then you end up with older OS, Radio and Extended ROM as well as IPL and SPL??
Also if you use Boot loader 1.01 MFG, then upgrade individual components using MTTY??
With the latest developments over the past few days, it looks like Hermes is now an open field where one can try whatever combination as long as you can boot into service mode or Windows.
I would appreciate a comment from the developers confirming or explaining the current limitations.
Simple.
Please Answer if you are sure
Look !
my tytn have bootloader 1.09 and during upgrade it stopped , that is to say my phone das no OS so I cannot pass "WIndows Mobile " Screen unless I upgrade fully upgrade rom . I have read and tried all suggested ways but they are not useful , because bootloader 1.09 checks CID but my CID is corrupted .
I need a way to pass CID check same as SSPL . but I cannot copy any thing to phone . The only way which can help me , is a file which able to pass phone's CID check from PC .

ok now you have to open an mtty session... download this ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Cooked_ROMs/SPL-1.01MFG_Pack.zip
1. Disable 'Allow USB Connections' in Activesync
2. Open mtty.exe
3. type \\.\WCEUSBSH001 in the port section and click ok
4. press 'Enter' twice and type task 32 and press enter
4. type info 2 and tell me what is displayed...
What about writing an app which fully identifies all Hermes specs? It should open a message box and answer whether device is SuperCID, which IPL, SPL, RBL, ROM, Radio and if readable which ExtROM. Wouldn't that be nice? Every noob could give all the information viable for all others to help.
well if the user was to go and look at the device information application in 'Settings' > System then can find out what radio rom version they have when in turn if they look at the table in the wiki they can tell what version of Radio Bootloader they have... but i will investigate writing a little app... shouldnt be too hard...

Can you put the new "RUU_signed.nbh" from step 8 above back into the full RUU....._ship.exe using Winrar and run it that way too?
This is very cool! So we can change to any radio ROM (upgrade or downgrade), but technically we will still have radio BL 108, but who cares.

Hi Walshieau,
After I follow your edit 3 step, when I try to upgrade the radio,
it shown Error 262. What's that error message for?
Thanks
did you copy SSPL to your device and run it before you started the upgrade???
Am I right in thinking I could mix and match all the components with this tool?
I.E. extract the o.s. from one full update then extract the radio from another, then use "NBF generator" to merge them and flash them all at once?
Hi all,
I have a Dopod 838 Pro (HERMES). I successfully flashed to XDA Live 0.10, and all was working fine.
I then unlocked and write-enabled the Ext_Rom and tried to install an app in there (PTravelAlarm). The install hang at about 90%, and had to soft-reset.
Since then, it fails to boot, hanging at the HTC logo screen. I can also boot into bootloader.
I tried several times to perform another flash of XDA Live, and also older ROMS but they all fail with "error 262 - update error"
I then managed to flash the original ROM that was shipped with the model, the flash finished successfully and now it hangs on the Windows Mobile logo.
How can I have my phone back? I can boot into bootloader but none of the RUU update progs are able to flash while in bootloader?
Can somebody please help?
Many thanks
Chris

Well, I'm not sure what the "14 0" part is . BUT, what bl do you have and do you have an extracted os.nb using nbhextract that you're trying to flash?
i have bl 1.09.
no I dont have an extracted os.nb
do I need one?

Hmm... I'm not 100% positive if the 1.09 is going to be a problem here. But what you need to do first is to throw nbhextract.exe and and the nbh file (from whatever rom you want) into the root of c:\. Then open a dos prompt go to c:\ and type:
nbhextract "RUU_signed.nbh" -v
(be sure to leave out the quotes, and the file "RUU_signed.nbh" may be different from the nbh in the rom you choose)
That will put an "*.nb" into your c drive.
Any of this sound familiar yet?
Okay, so now you have your os.nb file.
Now, right click your ActiveSync icon and choose to disable your USB connection there.
Put your os.nb file in the same directory as mtty and connect your phone via usb to your computer.
Now get into your bootloader on the phone.
Open mtty up, choose your usb connection in the "ports" dropdown and hit "ok".
In the new window, hit "enter" a couple times to take you to the "USB>" prompt.
Now type these commands"
USB> task 32
USB> task 28
USB> lnb OS.nb
USB> task 28
USB> task 8
And that should do it! Well, that is if I didn't miss anything...
can i use any RUU_signed.nbh ?

Are you sure you're SuperCID? What ipl and spl do you have?

I am supercid for sure (tested within mtty)

Hey,
I'm pretty new here but I hope I can get some help here.
I got myself a HTC X7550 (Athena) and when I connected it with activesync a romupdate started through a mistake by me.
It told me de vendor ID was wrong but instead of restarting,
my ROM image on the device was GONE.
Is there a way to know the vendorID and to find the original ROM image?
Regards FRaccie
Download the zip fiel called: Hard-SPL(2).zip
Than have your x7500 plugged to your pc and make sure you are on the bootloader (the 3 color screen).
Now unzip the file and copy the files to a different folder and than run the file:ROMUpdateUtility.exe
This will get you out of there and you can reset the x7500 once it's done.
After that download the file:AthenaUnlocker.zip and follow the instruction on the screen. After that you could install wm6.

Unlock in Bootloader
Hi JasJarMan. Your attached file was for Trinitiy device. Can this also be used for the X7500 ?
I need to unlock my X7500 from Bootloader if it is possible.
I can not find any ROM that installs on my X7500 and I am stuck in bootloader. My Telephone supplier has not released the original ROM as a flash- file and therefore I am afraid my device is currently bricked.
If I could get it back in original state I would be very happy and try unlock it before flashing again.
Regards, Eric

Thanks Boinger66 but according to the video / docu in this tread, the unlock are done in x7500's operative system. I am currently at Bootloader because I can not boot the device with any operativesystem.
Can the unlock application in the tread also be used in bootloader "modus" ?

It can't be flashed that i have been downloaded..
After flashing my locked T-mob vario dutch (for the 20st time) it now is bricked.
I tried to flash the Fun_Key_rom.
Hermes is stuck on the HTC logo 1pl-1.01 and SPL-2.03 not Super CID. (because of the warranty). I followed the thread about unbricking, but untill now no result.
I can flash it with Ruu.exe (and ruuwrapper.exe) the option 2.02/2.10 works for me untill 1% and then I get a invallid vendor ID.
I read the thread over and over again, but didn't seem to get how to unbrick it. Do I need to have a special rom? or other software?
no you need to flash Hard SPL on your phone right now!!! you can always unflash the HardSPL at a later date but you where just asking for a brick by not flashing HardSPL in the first place!

Had no problems for all those times..untill now I know it was stupid.
Trying to flash Hard SPL I got a 260 update error on the HardSPL v7. I also tried it with another upgrader and got an 270 error. It installed until 100% but no result.

Yes, you need to use CustomRUU to avoid the invalid vendor ID. It bypasses the CID check. That is why it works, even though you are not superCID.
Regarding the 260 error, try a couple things.
If you can, try SD flashing.
If you cannot do SD method, try using "manual bootloader" method:
- Put phone in bootloader mode
- NOW attach to USB lead
- Start CustomRUU
If that does not work, try taking the battery out for a while (5 minutes) and then try again.

It may be the RUUWrapper you have, but you can get it at THIS THREAD You may already have used it though, on the one that did not give you the invalid vendor error. Use it with the nbh file. If you only have an exe, then you can use winrar to take it apart into 2 files - the ruu file (the updater) and the nbh (the ROM itself). Once you are using the right CustomRUU, try the things I mentioned in my previous post.
Other things to be sure of...
If you are using Vista, check with MrVanx guides to see what you need to do.
You must have...
ActiveSync 4.5
.NET framework 2 or higher
Thanks for ur help. Really appr. it.
When I use the CustomRuu on any nbh file I'll get the Update error (260).
If I use the same nbh file on the RUU.exe file and I choose the 2.02/2.10 option it flashes my mobile till 1%. Then I get error 274 Invalid Vendor ID.
I see on the forum a lot of people bricked there Tytn on SPL 2.03.
Is Mr. Olipro having an solution?
Have you tried these things...

What were the specific errors for each method? I know you cannot get 260 with SD card flash method.

You are in a quite bad situation. I am not well aware about all the new ways to backup bricked hermes; but as far as I know the only remaining possibility for you is to flash your device using the default flasher AND a rom matching your CID.
Hopefully tmobile dutch released an updated WM5 release for your phone. You should be able to flash it, setup hardspl, and flash anything you want; but in a safe way this time.
There is maybe a way to tweak the CID of cooked ROM, but don't know anything about it (and there will certainly be signing issues).
In order to get your CID and see if something matching it is available at the wiki read the wiki about mtty (as far as I remember it is something like "type 2").

I got another error on cooked roms (26008 or something) and when I put an org. carrier rom on the card it says checking but will not install because its not a legal rom.
Because of a hardware error I had to return my Tytn today..while it still is bricked. Hope Tmob will be kind and fix this for me along with the hardware issue
