Any ideas? I tried searching the forum already but i can't get a it?
Start in bootloader mode, download mtty.exe and start it, connect via USB.
Then type "info 2" - without the quotes.

so when we get a message from info 2 that has HTCSuperCID in it then were safe to do whatever right?

please READ: to flash an exctracted radio you need bootloader 1.04, your bootloader is 1.09. The radio 1.27 is offered in two different formats: shipped (NBH) file which you will be able to flash and extracted (NBF) file which you will not be able to flash unless you downgrade your bootloader to 1.04.
@pof (hi again LOL!)
From what ive read (see my sig am on 1.09) i cant use these upgraded radio ROMs, but if im not really having any unwanted issues is it even worth trying to downgrade to 1.04??
More to the point (im most probably wrong but...) to downgrade to 1.04 i must flash a different ROM, im happy with the HTC south Africa one?!?

If you are happy with the 1.18 radio, and don't need to access the radio bootloader or AT command interpreter, you can keep 1.09 bootloader without problems. There's no difference in day-to-day use of the Hermes as a PDA/mobile.

That's a way, but as I see in your signature your device is SuperCID, so to downgrade the bootloader you don't actually need to flash a full rom. The steps would be:
1. Flash bootloader 1.01 MFG
2. Flash SPL-1.04 from bootloader using 'lnb' if you don't want to keep the MFG.
You can do this without having to hard reset your device.

Sweet! Would it be a good idea to stick with 1.01 MFG if im planning on pursuing the GPS thing (IF we get past any risky stuff!), or even if i want to use some cooked goodies later on?

I get the following code: HTCSQTEK_001ÖUSB>

I am on bootloader 1.09 that came with the SA ROM.
Would like to upgrade the radio to 1.27

Your CID is the part just after "HTCS"
So in your case you get (from info 2) "HTCSQTEK_001ÖUSB" so your hermes is an English HTC branded device, your device is not SuperCID yet.
Check this post to see which it is (im only going by memory)
EDIT: I upgraded to the 1.27.00.00 radio yesterday, aslong as you use the signed released version (the first option on the related thread) you should be ok, dont use the extracted one. You MUST be SuperCID to upgrade the Radio (covering ones ass).
@basilrsa: Your CID is QTEK_001. Your device is CID locked with bootloader 1.09, you won't be able to flash 1.27 radio unless you downgrade your SPL to 1.04 first, either to continue CID locked and be able to flash extracted radio or to CID unlock and be able to flash shipped radio.
Thanks Pof

Are there any downsides to downgrading to bootloader v1.04?
Does v1.06 have anything extra that v1.04 doesn't?
I have an X01HT (v1.06)
Is it possible that future ROM upgrades could be tied to the bootloader version?

Bootloader 1.06 enforces CID checking, bootloader 1.04 doesn't.
Bootloader 1.06 doesn't have 'rtask' command, bootloader 1.04 does.
rtask command allows you to do some "interesting" things, for example enter radio bootloader, and GSM AT command interface, where you can type AT commands to the phone from bootloader. Read the wiki Hermes bootloader page for more info.
tle said:

Click to expand...

No, it has less things... rtask command removed
The "extra" thing is that your CID is checked when flashing a ROM, so you can't flash ROMs that are made for other Hermes devices such as HTC TyTN or Cingular 8525 on your X01HT.

it is possible, but unlikely to happen, shouldn't worry you too much now.
Thanks for the quick reply, pof.
I guess that if a ROM were to be tied to bootloader v1.06 then someone would have to make a bootloader only upgrade... Do you foresee and potential issues there. (excluding copyright issues?

No issues at all, and no "bootloader only upgrade" needed... if you are on 1.04 you just have to flash any ROM containing bootloader 1.06 to have bootloader 1.06 on your device. Then you could do the 'tied-to-1.06' upgrade.
But at the moment 1.06 and 1.04 are very similar, the only difference I've noticed is 'rtask' command and CID checking. rtask command also allows you to go radio bootloader and flash the 'extracted radio rom upgrades' (using rwdata), so you can't do a radio-only upgrade in 1.06 at the moment.
Anyway... I am investigating the way to provide an alternative method to go from 1.06 to 1.04 without copyright issues (as with the previous method from imei-check). Now I can jump from WinCE to IPL at physical address 0x0000000 and then the IPL reads the SPL from flash and executes it correctly.
The next step is to load the nb file for SPL 1.04 and place it in RAM at 0x3000000, and instead of jumping to IPL jump to SPL when this is done it will be possible to downgrade the bootlodaer for those of you on 1.06
Sounds like you are close to a solution. I read in a another thread that you said you are not a WINCE programmer, but you seems like you have a good grasp of low level programming. Best of luck!
I'm getting a lot of help from some friends, i wouldn't have reached this without their help, and I like to learn new things
What we're doing is modifying gnuharet to remove the linux-loading part and add very few changes in the ARM9 assembly part, if you're interested see the file src/wince/asmstuff.S.

I guess it should be possible to do in wince by directly calling a rilgsm ioctl
(should work on universal, the equivalent code runs the phone in Linux).
devspecific code=54
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=rilgsm.dll
cr2, yes it is possible... this is what my unlocker does to do the [email protected] commands and uses almost the same code as buzz used on the universal.
EDIT: I read you too fast, I'm using RIL_DevSpecific commands to send the [email protected], but didn't read the code=54. Have to try this, thanks for pointing it out!

Hi pof,
I (stupid guy!) upgraded from ME_DT_WWE_1182553_106_10303_Ship to Cingular 1.34.502.1 (1.06) and now I cannot downgrade (using for example Cingular_1.30.502.1 (1.04)...why?
I tried every unlocking process, every step you write here, but no way! Always ID ERROR (294)...whyyy????
I cannot understand...I think a downgrade to 1.04 could save me...
Please, help me...
Yes, downgrade will help you. Just downgrade to a full rom matching the CID on your device, or wait until a free solution to downgrade bootloader.

Just to be sure: I flashed my Dutch TyTn (QTEK_E11) to Cing 1.34 WWE (CWS_001).
Now my CID still is QTEK_E11 or is it changed to CWS_001?
If is still is QTEK_E11 then I can go back to the Dutch HTC 1.18.254.2, can I?
And from there I can SuperCID my device?

You need to downgrade the bootloader to 1.04 to run the radio only upgrade. If you still have the bootloader 1.09 running on your device, the radio only upgrade will fail.
If your bootloader version is 1.09, you can buy the Imei-check unlocker to have bootloader 1.04. The HTC Hermes unlocker from imei-check is able to flash the 1.04 bootloader. It transfers the required files to the Hermes via ActiveSync before actually the unlocking key file with your IMEI is requested. The bootloader is flashed on the device after you enter the valid key file (you have to pay for that).
I SEE THAT IF I WANT TO CHANGE BACK TO 1.04 I NEED TO
upgrate to other version of HTC 1.04 then ill do every thing

No, you still don't understand.
That method is only valid if your bootloader version is 1.06, if your bootloader version is 1.09, you can't downgrade because 1.09 will not allow to be "upgraded" to a lower version.
You should spend some time reading the wiki, otherwise you'll end up asking those pointless questions and will waste another 10's of hours or even days of your time asking those questions.

Ohh yeah baby,
It's been done. They havn't said it has been done, but I assume that it has since I have checked their sice a couple times a week for the past couple of months just waiting for something to be said. They have removed the message about Softbank phones being unable to unlock. So I "ASSSUME" that you can now fully crack your phone with Softbank v1.09. Also for the simle fact that it is version 4 http://www.imei-check.co.uk/M3100v4Unlock.zip of their software instead of version 3. So, now we can crack, our X01HTs, we can downgrade to 1.04, flash with a English rom, then downgrade again to 1.01 and then flash with our custom splash screens.
Imei-check has cracked post December Softbank phones.

Interesting! Anyone tried it? Are you x01ht post december 2nd, able to flash another radio after unlocking?
Success!!
I tried as soon as I saw this post, I had previously bought the IMEI thingy (technically speaking) and realized that my phone was a post Dec. (I originally thought I got it in November, but I realized that I was just an idiot)
anyways a couple minutes later I'm using my Docomo Card on my unlocked Softbank phone.
I'm not gonna lie, it was well worth the $40.
Now, I am not sure if my mail is working. So you guys have any idea about the Docomo mail if that works or not on the Hermes?

They say as follows;
(1)
How do upgrade other radios:
Unlock using v4b unlocker. Upgrade again to the X01HT 1.09 rom. Now flash the phone with a COMPLETE rom (for example cingular 1.24 or imate ). Now the radio will be changed to something else. YOU MUST flash a full rom on a 1.09 so your radio it be flashing too.
(2)
ok again. PRIOR to flashing NEW RADIO ROM you have to upgrade to bootloader SPL1.09. You DO NOT NEED to run the unlocker again. Your phone has to show SPL1.09 when you run the ROM update with the radio of your choice.
Extended ROMs are EMBEDDED in the firmware update. Any access from WindowsCE to this ROM has nothing to do with SIM or CIDunlock.
So solution:
1) Update to bootloader SPL 1.09
2) Then run the update with radio firmware you like
NOTE: DO NOT RUN THE UNLOCKER AGAIN! Then it will work.

To upgrade radio on a new "1.14.00.10 radio":
First unlock the device with v4b unlocker.
After unlocked ok, upgrade AGAIN to the SB firmware so the 1.09 bootloader back in place.
Now flash the device with a FULL original HTC Hermes firmware (for example cingular full firmware) and now the radio will be flashed to a different one.
IF bootloader is NOT showing SPL1.09 the radio it will NOT be flashed when you do the flash upgrade!!!

And succeeded unlock to use M3100v4Unlock.exe.
However, the radio was unable to flash another radio rom.
Then,I read this advice,flashed a New Softbank Rom.
It was no lock.
However,can not run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe.
Unable to flash radio rom.
I think because SPL is 1.09.
Then,M3100v4Unlock.exe was made to run again.
When it used this tool, it became automaticaly SPL to downglade to SPL1.04.

I can run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe.
But, it is not unable to flash ...

To upgrade radio on a new "1.14.00.10 radio":
First unlock the device with v4b unlocker.
After unlocked ok, upgrade AGAIN to the SB firmware so the 1.09 bootloader back in place.
Now flash the device with a FULL original HTC Hermes firmware (for example cingular full firmware) and now the radio will be flashed to a different one.
IF bootloader is NOT showing SPL1.09 the radio it will NOT be flashed when you do the flash upgrade!!!

Hi all.
My Softbank has b/l 1.04 and the 1.14.00.10 radio on it. To use this method,which rom do I use for the 1.09 b/l? I looked at wiki,and the only one was a Japanese version for softbank. It does not match my Softbank, so I am not real sure which way to go. Is there a Dopod rom with the 1.09 b/l?
BTW.....My Sb is an HERM200 with the Dopod splash screen and was shipped with the Dopod 1.23.707.4 WWE Rom, IPL 1.01,B/L 1.04, and the dreaded 1.14.00.10 radio on it.
Thanks................Later
I had read many post here these few days and got so confuse.
I read in some post that reply from you and get this message,
please correct me if I am wrong.
If I buy a X01HT with 1.09 bootloader now,
Is it possible to downgrade to 1.04 use HERMES Bootloader 1.01 MFG?
After I downgrade to 1.04 then I can use your SIM UNLOCK v2a program
to SIM UNLOCK and CID UNLOCK. Also I can upgrade the radio and
ExtendedROMs to other language. Am I got the right message or wrong?
Thank You for answer my question!!

you can down to 1.04, but u can't get supercid, so u can't get Bootloader 1.01 MFG, and u can't flash other radio or OS.
i think.
If you want to discuss with one member only, please PM that person. If not, don't start thread with "To <member>:" You're only hurting yourself since doing this can limit the hits (people will ignore because title doesn't include them).
answer to your question: no, MFG solution is only available for SuperCID devices.
Sleuth255:
Thanks for your advance, coz Im new here.
So what is SuperCID? How I can know my mobile have SuperCID or not?
If not, how can I change to SuperCID?
Thanks!
"The CID is a string that identifies carrier and language of your device, it is contained also on ROM upgrade files and is used to check that you're flashing your device with the right ROM."
So SuperCID allows things from a different carrier to be flashed to your device without needing your specific vendor updates.
Connect to your device in bootloader mode through mtty.exe and issue the 'info 2' command. Do not copy and paste commands into mtty.

Your method can work on bootloader 1.09?
If yes, after I change to mobile to SuperCID, then I can downgrade to 1.04,
right? And then I can upgrade the Rom, radio also?
I'm pretty sure that there's no SuperCID solution yet for your phone. I know you can unlock with the IMEI-check unlocker and I believe that takes you back to BL1.04, but you can't get to SuperCID since pof's custom radio won't flash on yours due to the radio bootloader yours has. Here's a link to a thread on this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290228
You can make x01ht post dec-2nd SuperCID by paying imei-check unlocker. This will downgrade your bootloader to 1.04 too. After that you can flash 1.01 MFG if you want, and also unlock your ExtROM. To flash other radio you'll need to upgrade the bootloader to 1.09 again and use a radio in NBH format (shipped 1.27 for example). Your radio bootloader can't be downgraded and you can't flash extracted radio roms. That's all
To be simple, Post Dec X01HT can only be unlocked & superCID by IMEI-CHECK (NO FREE METHOD at the moment), better pay if you need the phone function.......
Ahhh... so the new IMEI-check unlocker also does SuperCID. Damn.... How'd they get their custom radio flashed I wonder? That's good news for users of this phone!
You said I can't update the Extracted Radio ROM, that mean I need to download this file "RUU_Hermes_TMD-TMA_Radiopatch_1.27.00.00_107_GER.exe", right? Is it the post 2nd-Dec X01HT problem, even I downgrade to B/L 1.04, I still can't upgrade the Extracted Radio ROM? One more thing, how can I upgrade to B/L 1.09 again?
Thanks
Anyone can help?
Thanks!

Yes, it's forced by radio bootloader 0108, you can upgrade to SPL-1.09 to flash radios in NBH, read more here:

Unlock CID
HELP!!! dont want to send phone to service centre. Spl 1.01 mfg which is cid locked which means i cant upgrade bootloader to spl1.04 to flash a OS rom plus active sync does not connect whilst in bootload which most of the cid unlocking tools out there require a active sync connection. any way to cid unlock?
I've read and reread various posts about this. I just want to make sure I have the steps down before I go forward.
What I have now:
Cingular 8525
Rom: 1.34.502.1
Radio version : 1.16
SPL: 1.06
What I would like achieve:
Rom: 2.06.502.3
Radion version: 1.27
SPL: 1.04
Ext Rom: 2.06.502.3
1) Downgrade to SPL 1.04 by flashing the 8525 with file RUU_HER_Cingular_1.30.502.1_1.11.00.00_wwe_cws_ship.exe. This is because it matches my CID CWS__001 and it has SPL 1.04. I guess I simply run it without any other preparations. Is this correct?
2) Super CID and simunlock using HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v2a.zip
3) I choose the ROM RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2.06.502.3_6275_1.33.31.00_108_Ship.exe
4) Use NBExtract to decompress the above ROM to get files OS.nbf and Extrom.nbf file
5) Flash SPL 1.01MFG using mtty.exe. Is this necessary? Can't I flash OS.nbf with SPL1.04?
6) Flash OS.nbf file extracted using mtty.exe
7) Flash extrom.nbf file extracted using mtty.exe
8) Flash radio from file RUU_Hermes_TMD-TMA_Radiopatch_1.27.00.00_107_GER.exe by simply running it. Is this correct?
Am I missing something in the process?
Lastly, Is this the best COMBINATION of ROM, radio, and ext ROM? And how does RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2[1].06.502.3_6275_1.33.31.00_108_Ship compared to 2.05?
Thanks for any input.

This part is beyond what i did, my process was that i upgraded to radio ROM 1.27.00.00 using the signed .exe because i originally had SPL 1.09.

You seem to have it figured out, but dont go on what i say here, wait for it to be verified by more than just me
My process (having already got superCID and unlocked a while ago) was to upgrade to radio 1.27.00.00 before anything else, then to flash SPL 1.01MFG using mtty, then flash the OS.nb file from the ROM i chose, then to flash ExtROM.nb (again from the ROM i chose). By using radio 1.27 you will have radio loader 107 which is recommended still.
Once some other people have looked over what you posted then you should go ahead (if they all give the "all clear" )
You combination of rom and radio is a good idea (the ROM and ExtROM is entirely up to you but the radio is the highest that doesnt have loader 108?)
It's even easier than that;
get my Custom RUU kit and you can skip the reflash;
take the 3.3AKU and extract the RUU_Signed.
extract the RUU signed with NBHExtract or my GUI tool (make sure it's all in the same directory) then you can create a NEW RUU with SPL 1.04, whatever radio you like (if you want a new one) and the 3.3 OS AKU.
remember: if you do it this way, you can have whatever components you want; ExtROM, OS, mix and match anything.
however... if you don't think you can manage doing this, tell me what you want and I'll happily assemble it for you
1. SuperCid and Unlock with POF VERSION 3
Website:
http://pof.eslack.org/hermes-unlocker/
Install Instructions:
Easy auto-install Instructions:
Unzip unlocker and run AUTO_Unlock_v3.bat
If you don't want to install automatically, or for some reason the process doesn't work for you, here are the manual instructions:
Transfer SSPL/SSPL-HERM.exe to your phone and run it
Tri-color screen will appear
Disable activesync (file -> connection settings -> uncheck "allow USB connections")
Connect your phone to your computer using the USB lead.
Run RUU/ROMUpgradeUt.exe
Follow the flashing process (Check the "I understand..." and "I completed..." boxes and update!)
Allow your phone to reboot.
Transfer HERM_Unlock_v3.exe program to your phone and run it
Click the Unlock Button, select unlock option. Select if you want SIM/CID unlock.
Click "Unlock!" and wait until process finishes.
When done, turn off your phone for 10 seconds and reboot after that.
2. Then Run this cooked ROM (Cooked w/Olipro software)
http://uploadingit.com/files/8194/RUU_CINGULAR_2.06.502.3_1.27.00.00_SPL1.04.zip
Rom: 2.06.502.3
Radion version: 1.27
SPL: 1.04
Ext Rom: 2.06.502.3
I think radio 1.33 or 1.34 is better then 1.27. I do not see a difference between 1.33 or 1.34 though.
You pretty much had the process but this will be easier for you.
just to point out; SuperCID and Unlock (unless using a different SIM) is unnecessary and *could* potentially invalidate your warranty.
SuperCID is pretty much redundant nowadays with the new SSPL; the only real advantage to having your device SuperCID is if there isn't a ROM for your CID with old version stuff to revert to.
Thank you for all the replies! I appreciate it.
@mrvanx and wpbear
The reason stated using unlocker v2a was because, from what I understand, if I use v3 it would put a patched 1.08 Radio BL (which I thought we want to avoid). Which means that I won't be able to "downgrade" to a lower version radio. Am I wrong?
@mrvanx
You said that I didn't need to downgrade to 1.04 BL because I could use 1.01MFG. I thought that I couldn't do that with 1.06 or higher. I had to downgrade to 1.04 first.
@wpbear
I assume in order to use your custom cooked ROM, I have to SuperCID right?
@Olipro
Thanks for the offer of cooking up a ROM. I think wpbear's ROM has everything I wanted. But again, if I wanted to use your ROM, I would have to SuperCID? Also, where can I get your GUI?
But what is the best combination right now of OS, Ext, and radio?
Thanks again!
anubus12 said:

Nevermind, I found your GUI. Thanks!
The only advantage of real SuperCID is being able to write to extrom once you've unlocked it.
You did a real nice v1.0 upgrade set of instructions btw They were perfect. In fact that's exactly what I did to upgrade my 8525.
However, the recent explosion of NBHtools that take advantage of Des' SSPL technique (nicely done Olipro btw )have opened up much better ways to accomplish this now.

no, you do *not* have to SuperCID at all with my RUU since it uses SSPL.
if you use the custom RUU (and you can tell, it has the XDA Dev logo on) then your device does not need to be SuperCID

You SHOULD be ok, i downgraded to SPL 1.01MFG from version 1.09 by just flashing it using mtty.exe. I followed the instructions on the How to Flash AKU3.3 Update thread (the first post) to get my new ROM onto my device. I used the HTC AKU3.3 Test ROM and it worked just great.

I do not think Pof unlocker put BL 108 on your device, but it doesnt matter anymore since SSPL bypass this and you can now still do radio only changes.

Are you SuperCID with POf unlocker?
SuperCID/unlock yes. POF no.
Wiki and numberous posts indicate if the unit is SuperCID, it is SuperCID period however there is a v2 v2a and v3.
Is there more to SuperCID than just SuperCID?
Sometimes it sticks and sometimes it does not?
Can v3 be run over top of an existing SuperCID/unlocked unit without risk?
True you are either SuperCID or not, but we have seen people loose SuperCID for no apparent reason. Use mtty and check if you are still SuperCID.
Still superCID, still 1.06.
