Hi to all,
im italian and i love this forum!
I finally got a HERMES SN641...
With this Roms:
Rom : 1.18.258.2
Radio : 1.03.03.10
Protocol :32.34.7010.01H
ExtRom :1.18.258.105
With new roms, i could fix some Hermes problems, bug, and compatibilty with TCTMP player ? In italy the release of new Rom is scheduled next years ...
Where i can find the version of my boot loader ?
Thx to all.
the way to find out your bootloader version is to go into bootloader mode on your hermes...
to go into bootloader mode, simultaneously press and hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus. when you see the tri-color screen, check the number of SPL-X.XX. that is your bootloader version.
if you are new to this forum, i recommend you to read through the wiki first if you have not. it's not too late considering any rom upgrades after spending some time reading the wiki and the threads related to upgrading issues. otherwise you may end up with bricking your hermes and that should be the last thing you want to do.

Thank you Harry.
I'll read the wiki before.

for others pls make a POLL if your button is working or not in WM2005
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=22737
Been a while since the POLL Shows that there are more people who has experiencing the non-working rec and cam button in Magneto than those has a working button. Up to this moment there are no single explanation why this is happening ..
But it is not the number that are very intriguing in the POLL but its BOOTLOADER version, because we can easily distinguish does people who have a working button than those has not working button
:arrow: If you have a BOOTLOADER 1.01, 1.02 or 1.03
Most Likely ALL your Button will work .. if it doesnt work .. just a little adjustment then it gonna work
:arrow: AND if you have a BOOTLOADER 1.04 and 1.05
The Record button will only work if it is turn off(press power off once) and the buttonlock is off but it will not work if the device is ON or Total OFF (press power off twice)
and Camera button is not working in any type of situation (ON, Suspend(press power off once), total OFF(press power off twice))
:arrow: BUT if you have 1.06 the results are mixed
if you are sure that your original Booloader Installed is 1.06, then same as those who have 1.04 and 1.05 your camera and record will not work if the device is ON
but some have a working button and has Bootloader 1.06 ..
im not saying that a ROM upgrade can upgrade the BOOTLOADER since it needs the bootloader to be Unlock or to be Unprotect before it changes the Bootloader which mostly of the Device Bootloader is Lock and Protected and im not sure if there is a ROM upgrade (.nbf) that can unprotect our Bootloader to Upgrade it although we had already a case in the past thread that bootloader is change due to rom upgrade..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=54696#54696
Heres My list of ROM version that contains Bootloader 1.06
1.66.00 WWE
1.66.00 ITA
1.66.00 WWE
1.66FRA
1.66.01 GER
1.72.00 WWE
1.72.01 GER
1.75.00 WWE
2.02.t1 WWE
2.20.07 CHS - both Translated and not
PS. I cant find yet a ROM Upgrade(.nbf) than contain 1.04 and 1.05 bootloader but some 1.60 ROM (NOT ALL) contains 1.03 Bootloader.
also 2.06.00WWE doesnt contain a bootloader (or bootloader is blank/empty)
Now we first extract and compare the bootloader of those who have working button and uses 1.06 with those is nonworking button and uses 1.06 bootloader

Suprising we FOUND no SINGLE DIFFERENCES AT ALL .. so it means that it is not the BOOTLOADER ..
BUT WE CANNOT CONFIRMED if no one will try to Downgrade there bootloader for those non-working and upgrade there bootloader for working button. And Downgrading and Upgrading the Bootloader is surely a very Dangerous thing that you will do to your device .. i once explain it in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=124909#124909
But Someone has to do it to end this Bootloader version Theory of non-working button .. and since im the KING of STUPIDITY .. i will do THis SimPLE STUpid ExpERIMENTATion to know if the Bootloader
is the MAIN Cause for a non-working Camera and Record BUTTON of SOME WM2005/WM5.0 user, including me ..

NEXT STOP .. BOOTLOADER 1.01 .. WATCH OUT ..
I would image at this point that its probably not bootloader so much as the hardware revision of the device, and probably older devices work, (which typically have older bootloaders).
The REAL experiment would be for someone with working keys to upgrade their bootloader, (like a 1.01 to upgrade to 1.06)...
(Ya I know,... NOT ME!.... :wink: ) Some other braver soul...
Actually Buzz might have done this? Buzz has 1.06, but did Buzz ever upgrade his bootloader?

SOme ROM Upgrade, mostly the OLD ROM WM20003 contains already a bootloader 1.06 like the 1.66 and 1.72 (or even 1.75) .. some older rom contains bootloader 1.03 like the 1.60 .. but this ROM will only upgrade/downgrade your device BOOTLOADER if you have unlock bootloader which is most of the case is LOCKED or Protected..
im not sure if there is a rom update that can unlocks the bootloader and change it .. but in the past there is http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=54696#54696 .. but in a case of anybody, (tnx my friend for all the info and help .. :wink: ), i believe it was updated and not originally 1.06 since he bought his device December 2003 and the bootloader 1.06 is built in Feb 18, 2004 .. .. and yet still he has a working Rec and Camera button .. but it was repaired in March 2004 so it could be also an update from the service center .. ..

No prob,
Does that mean that the 1.01 bootloader worked? As in your hardware keys are now working, or the downgrade was successful?
hi
i need to confirm yet and do more testing before i post the result of downgrading to bootloader version 1.01
anyway heres my initial FINDINGs
MY RECORD AND CAMERA BUTTON IS STILL NOT WORKING
-toe
Upgrade Bootloader 1.03 to 1.06
Ok, this is a dirty job but (as they say) somebody has to do it!
As suggested by James, maybe if somebody can volunteer to upgrade his bootloader, we can finally put to rest the issue of "not working buttons" as either related to the bootloader or any other thing.
So toe, I see you are successful in downgrading, if you may share & give me the steps to do the upgrade i'm willing to take the risk!
I have bootloader 1.03 & working buttons. I'm willing to try an upgrade to 1.06.
Let me know. Good luck in your experimentations..... :wink:
I find it odd that there could be a software difference that would stop hardware buttons working, and yet here we have it. 2002/2003/2003se all work fine, but put 2005 on and they brake.
the recent experiments in downgrading bootloader would suggest that its the actual hardware that is the problem, ie, later models (tend to have later bootloader) are less likely to work.
From this, I think its time somebody looked at how the buttons actualy interface with the hardware, and what the difference is. Because the phone buttons, the cam/note buttons and the contact/calender buttons all work on different methods.
We may have to resort to a hardware hack. It may be as simple as changing a surface mount resistor to alter the value that the buttons trigger the hardware or as complicated as changing the gpio pins, who knows.
Any hardware hackers wanna take a look?
god i wish this theory of bootloader wud go away ,i bought a secondhand xda2 of ebay last week it has 1.03 and it works fine.
one possible clue is unfortunately is to dismantle the device or remove casing and locate what REVISION the board is.which i will do 2morrow .at the same i will try and identify any obvious differences between the two.
my original device has 1.06 and works fine!!!!!
o still think its a driver issue
well i still think its a driver issue or hardware gpio version issue
if i m not wrong the rom its made for one single device and that device was probably old so
new ones have new ship version and dont work. bootloader is recent
old ones work
and then aggain some new ones works cos the way chip board are manufactured
an old stock off chips got int production in a more recent version of devices wich made some 1.06 bootloaders also work.
so check the driver compared with 2003 driver and the answer is hidden there........
ok i m an idiot full of ideias
god buzz will solve it
god toenailed will prove it
god xda2jojo will anounce it

hi rhmartin .. pls PM me your YM or ICQ bro .. we need to talk live in Upgrading your BOOLOADER .. my first downgrade to 1.03 .. took 1 minute to finish .. and yeah ive been praying that nothing will happen .. when i downgrade to 1.01 from 1.03 it only took 15seconds .. but when i upgrade to 1.06 it took almost 30seconds.. but when i downgrade again to 1.01 and now from 1.06 it took me also 36seconds .. anyway its more on your PC and PPC condition than the actual upgrading process .
wish you were in pHilippines so we can study and compare our device ..
anyway guys before i even try to downgrade my Bootloader id already ask a forumer who has a working button to open his device and i will open my device also and compare it with him .. i just had to confirm first using all bootloader that its not really a bootloader issue .. it will just take us too long since i cant find a forumer near to my place that has working button to compare it we only communicate thru IM ..
ONE MORE THING GUys .. anyone here has also BOOTLOADER 1.01 pls pm me .. id like to check and compare it with the one i got from JAMES .. im having some problems with 1.01 than with 1.03 .. id like to know if this is just me and my device or the problem is incompatiblity somewhere of bootloader itself ...
anyway JAMES have you try using an MMC bigger than 64MB .. i dont have a problem in SD card even in 1gb but if i use MMC it can only read first 64MB and it will hang there .. i already try it in 1.06 but i havent encounter that problem .. i remember in 1.03 that i dont a problem in that either .. anyway tnx again for the 1.01 ..

actually m with you that the problem is due to driver (or dll) and it can be fix with a patch or a new driver .. since we dont have this problem in old WM version .. maybe we just need to distinguish first wat causes the problem ..

Hardware
I have an old XDAII from Korea that came with 1.52 or something like that and a newer one from China with 1.66 with Chinese on it.
I have 2.20 Translated on both now.
The hardware is different.
I broke the screen on the China one and I took the screen out of the older unit. The connections would not even fit. Different hardware. :shock:
The China one is at www.PPCtechs.com now. When it comes back, I will flash them both with 2005.
If one works and the other does not... It will prove it is a hardware issue.
Volume slider program
Has any one tried this http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus_t.html It woks great on 2003 2.20 etc. If it works on 2005, even with only the two top buttons, you could have a total of SIX buttons. (two real and 4 virtual) If the Volume slider part works.. THAT WOULD BE GREAT TOO!
Hi all.
Well, I made the jump to the Hermes.....I missed you ex-wizard guys...LOL.
I was wondering, and have searched with little to no luck, for an easy way to check the bootloader version on my Softbank. I want to start playing with it a bit, but have not been able to determine the bootloader version. I am hoping that I can downgrade to the Dopod 1.04 bootloader rom. My device info reads;
Rom Version 1.23.707.4
Rom Date 7/21/06
Radio Version 1.14.00.10
Protocol Version 32.50.7018.00H
Any help would be appreciated. I did d/l both of the guides, but I am still just a touch confused........

Put your phone into bootloader mode to get the version, then soft reset
Look here in the wiki to find out how:

Your bootloader version is the number after SPL not IPL

I can not find bootloader mode.
I followed these directions: Bootloader mode: Hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus form this link: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Resets
side ok button is the one closest to the scroll wheel and the power button is the one closest to the top on the right side of the unit, right?
All I seem to be doing is rebooting.
Any ideas on what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks
Sometimes I jump the gun and let go of the power and ok buttons as soon as i hit reset with the stylus try holding the power and ok a moment longer.

Hi all, first of all you need to know that I have read the WIKI and have had a look through the forum before asking these questions.
I've just bought a Hermes (I had a Magician before) and would like to get wm6 black edition on it. I've made my phone SuperCID using the tools on this site and that worked nicely. Problem I'm having is that when I start the wm6 upgrade I'm asked what bootloader my phone is running.
Am i correct in saying that the bootloader is the same thing as the IPL ? I'm not sure about that ....
When I turn on my Hermes it comes up with a couple of numbers but only one of them "looks right" : 1.23
Is that my bootloader ? That version doesn't show up in the menu when starting the wm6 upgrade
Regards,
John Gillespie
Be careful, you might need to do some more reading before you start flashing. Put your device in bootloader mode and it will display the IPL / SPL.
Hold the side OK and power button together then soft reset all at the same time to get to the boot loader.
Before you flash make sure you look at installing Hard SPL - should stop the phone getting bricked if anything goes wrong.
mrvanx has written some good guides.
http://www.mrvanx.myzen.co.uk/hermes_guide/
thanks !! i'm running 1.04, now I can upgrade
When I was reading through the black edition wm6 rom thread it made it look as if HardSPL was integrated in the rom. Is that the case or do I need to manually install HardSPL before doing anything ?
That is the case, it pushes the latest version but it's always a good idea to manually install it anyway - just in case.
ok thanks for the tip
other thing I was wondering about was if anyone had bothered testing which radio rom performs best ?
opinion differs but from what I've seen the general consensus is that you should use anything 1.27 or later
Take a look at my guide, it will take you through it all. The radio I use in the guide is 1.38.00.10 I havent updated for the new Imate radio as people are reporting battery drain effects etc.
So far there isnt any known issues with the radio I use in the the guide.
It will take you through upgrading to the latest version of WMXL,LVSW or Black.
thanks for your time
I'm now running wm6 black edition on my Hermes100 Orange France unit and have set my hardware keyboard to french. I've read that it isn't possible to change the virtual keyboard, is this true or has a workaround been found on this issue ?
I've also been looking for msn live but can't find it anywhere :/
I looked through the wiki as suggested on a thread but couldn't find it
anyone know ?
Hi,
i must sent my hermes to repairs. so i have to restore it to wm5 and old bootloader.
i have some problems with the gsm module. sometimes i get "no gsm" in the bootscreen and after boot no phone functions. Some time i the radio shows up in boot and i get phone functions. the problem did not appear after a flash. the last flash a month ago.
it seems that the hardware that there is a loose connection. when i make a test call and knock the phone (softly) the phone connection is lost. the "end call" button does nothing and after a while the whole os freezes.
has someone another idea than faulty hardware?
OS is restored to original with the help of mrvranx guide.
whats left is the bootloader and the shipped radio rom.
Bootloader screen shows:
Herm 300
IPL-1.04
SPL-2.10Olipro
Radio Rom is 1.47.30.10
Im a little concerned about mrvranx warning: "If your radio version is currently HIGHER than 1.27.00.00 then it is very likely the radio bootloader is version 0108, this WILL NOT allow the radio to be downgraded to a radio containing BL 0106 and will result in a "NO GSM" error"
but on the next page is a guide to flash the bootloader back step by step to the original. is this method save? and does anybody know which one was the shipped one (t-mobile germany).
last the radio. i can't remember which was the shipped version.
and can i flash whithout problems back to the original? somewhere i read about problems because of the bootloader.
and the last question
in what order must i do this. first radio then the bootloader is right?
many thanks in advance.
washi
just today I had to get my old TYTN ready for warranty/repair.
I followed mrvranx's guide to downgrade my bootloader and it worked flawlessly. I did it all from an XP computer as I was having issue on my Vista machine. Follow it to a T and you should not encounter trouble.
As for the order, I don't think it matters. I did my radio last if you just wanna follow my lead.
As for determining the radio and boot loader version - I'm with Rogers in Canada, they send me my replacement device before I send them the faulty one. I just go into bootloader mode (power on the right side+ok on the left side+reset button at the bottom) and verify the version.
just checked my radio bootloader version. its 108.
so i wont be able to flash a radio < 1.3x?
which is unfortunate because the t-mobile germany never actually offered an official update :/
i just hope the handy will pass with the old os and old bootloader but newer radio.
Is this really needed?
I have to send my phone in as well and didn't know if it was really necessary to do all the downgrading and stuff? i guess can't hurt to be safe though huh
Hey Guys,
I am in the same boat as you all, I am with Rogers and unfortunately MRVANX guide is not online at present, can any one help. Also if you can tell me if it is at all possible, my IPL is 1.04, SPL is 2.10.OLIPRO and Radio version is 1.54.07.00 I am using FARIA.32 ROM
please help.
Thanks

Evening guys,
I have been reading a lot of threads regarding the Mozart and more particularly SPL 4.6 because I want to flash Deepshining.
I am now more confused than anything. NoDo flash/Y Cable...
So here is my phone build:
carrier orange uk
7.10.7740.16 soft
2250.21.40600.061 firmware
0004 hardware revision
5.69.09.05a radio software
A.102.0.D4 radio hradware
4.6.2250.0 boot loader
4.06.061.00 rom version
spl-4.6.2250.0 (129193) MNG
PD67100
And my question is can I flash a Nodo to downgrade the spl.
(RUU_Mozart_Orange_UK_1.30.401.01_Radio_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50U_NoDo_by_ansar)
Also is normal if when I run the rom update utility the "from version" field is blank
I hope you can help.
Thanks!
now have 1.22 but rspl not loading
Hi Finally tried and now have spl 1.22
I lashed this rom
RUU_Mozart_Orange_UK_1.22.061.10_Radio_5.50.09.18_22.24.50.09U_by_ansar
but now I can't manage to load rspl. The phone does not reboot automatically.
If you have any ideas...
Thanks
I sorted it!
I flash again using a different rom to get a different spl.
I then was able to load rspl.
I now have Deepshining
Hi can you give me brief details of exactly what you did please as i would like to do the same with my orange branded phone please.

solution
Yep mate no problem
I first flashed my phone with a nodo rom
download and launch the exe shutdown your phone restart and hold “Volume Down” button during reset to enter OSPL mode....
located in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915827
in the middle of the page ou get this link from ansar

I fisrt tried version 1.22 but for some reason it would not allow the next step which is loading rspl and hspl the thread with the tools and tutorial is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647
Reset your device and hold “Volume Down” button during reset to enter OSPL mode.
you first launch rspl it then restart the phone and you can load hspl. your boot should change to hspl 1.24....
with hspl you can now flash with any custom rom / unbranded rom.
Don't hesitate to ask me more If any doubt. You don't want to end up with a brick
\m/
question
one thing what is your bootloader version/spl version
as mine was 4.6.2250.0
the way of doing differs depending on that
If it is 4.x you can do like me I am not sure about 5.x and above anymore
thank you very much for the guide....very much appreciated. i hope now that i can load a custom ROM on my fone without bricking it!!

Orange Unbrand Help
Hi Guys,
I'm trying to un-brand and custom flash my ROM so to release the tethering feature on the Mozart 7. I'm pretty new to flashing WP7 handsets so would really appreciate your advice and guidance.
Details:
(across red banner it reads Security Unlocked)
PD67100 SS-BC (4K)
SPL-4.6.2250.0
TOUCH C1(v66)
OS Version: 7.10.7720.68
Firmware Number: 2250.21.40600.061
I'm currently downloading the following ROM following your instructions above;
RUU_Mozart_Orange_UK_1.24.061.35_Radio_5.50.09.18_22.24.50.09U_by_ansar.zip
Once this has completed I guess i run the update utility in the zip to flash the Mozart and run through the DFT HSPL RSPL WP7F3 tutorial you mentioned above however I'm confused on the next steps as I then want to update to Mango so do I need to re-flash with a custom ROM (unbranded) to will enable tethering, do you guys have any recommendations?
I downloaded this RUU_Mozart_HTC_Europe_1.30.401.01_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50_RELEASE however I'm not sure if this is right!!
worried I might brick my phone
