Help!!
After un-bricking my device through the kitl way, for some reason the wifi lan cannot be opened no matter how many time I do a complete re-flash of the original rom..
Is it possible that a bad block was created when the device was bricked...
I noticed using taskmanager, in devices, the \device\mix1.dll is unloaded and it cannot be started manually because it cannot be found.
Where can I find the registy settings to see if WLAN is set correctly
Also, how can I extract and view the *.nb file once they are extracted from .nbh format. I want to try and find the mix1.dll and enter it manually and see if that does anything..
Mal...
I have the same problem after Unbricking my phone. Something was wrong with my Extended ROM after unbricking, it can never been unlocked like before. I would like to know how to fix the problem too.. No WiFi!
No Way!!!! I have the same problem too! Does you device run hotter than it used to and has less battery life? Mine does.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294919 theres the link to my thread, I think I asked an admin to change the thread name to WLAN problem, but it hasn't happened yet, (you know how busy they are!)
Do the AKU 3.3 roms work for you guys?
I reflashed my old rom, it hasn't fixed my WLAN problem, but my device doesn't overheat and lose battery power rapidly

you have AKU3.3
what operator are you using in AUS??
3 Aus
SHIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just hooked up with them about 2 months ago and got a DopPod 838 Pro with an 200mb internat package...
Roaming on the 2g telstra when 3 AUs is not available but the [email protected]#CH at the store failed to mention to me that Im charged by time when roaming on the Telstra Net and not Usage/mb...
Even though there is no difference in talk calls..

AKU 3.3's radio doesnt work right for me Its always searching, says I have no service and doesn't realize when I have a sim card in or out. I think it might the radio, but I don't think you can change it with the new roms.
Since my WLAN stopped workin ive been getting crappy battery life, it lasts less than for hours in sleep mode

I searched for mix.dll using search feature in Resco File Explorer and it couldn't find it. However it found all the other files that were on the list that I searched for. Can someone without this WLAN problem search and see if they have mix.dll? I'm pretty sure that it should be located in \Windows
I just searched for WZCSCV.dll and couldn't find that either. I think also has to do with the WLAN, I belive that is soemthing to do with the Zero Configuration
So far I can't find
WZCSCV.dll
MIX.dll
Is anyone else having this problem?
would it be possible for someone to upload the mix.dll and WZCSCV.dll
so I could see if it could put them on my pda?
im not sure that you require mix.dll as i cannot find it on my device but here is wzcscv.dll from the aku3.3 rom...
Might be a dumb question, but, couldn't you just reflash the device again to fix the WLAN issue? Or, do a few hard-resets in a row.. That seems to fix some gremlins.
Or, now that the unlocker v3 is out, unlock and go to a different ROM altogether and see if that fixes the issue for you (to see if it's a hardware issue that is still causing problems or just a software issue).
Just my two-cents.

I've tried hard resetting and flashing to different roms numerous times and nothing seems to help
well i dont believe that a simple file replacement will fix the problem... it sounds like a hardware issue....
Just a guess, but, I wonder if in the process of bricking it/repairing it, you've missed forcing an update on some part of the device.. Maybe a BL or something like that isn't quite 'right'...
Anyways, that sucks to get the device unbricked only to have this problem I feel for you.

as per topic, i can use my ppc as a pc but not at all as a phone, and i d/l'd WM2003SE under the himalaya section of buzzdev.net and yet still no go, i have tried various ways short of obtaining my old 2003 (non-se)
im going crazy, so many little error's i've gone through lately and gotten over most so far, but my radio rom and being unable to upgrade/ downgrade/ flash modify at all, i don't know why, i cant connect to the ppc via activesync so i can't use getverdata or whatever app it is... in simple words i need help with my radio rom, how can i def. edit it, cause iwth hima upgrade i can't seem to.get it working.. boh i dunno it's sending me crazy
Which Himalaya model do you have?
i have an O2 XDAII, just the normal version, not XDA IIi, not XDAII mini or XDAIIs
i've fixed my OS to WM2005 BUT can't seem to fix and keep getting error 114 (radio rom upgrade error) which im currently trying to overcome.
Also, could it be something with my bootloader, i only run 1.02 or something (will change later if i'm wrong, but i dont think i am, currently trying another flash atm)
do i need a new bootloader, or should i not bother trying cause this probably wouldnt help fixing my problem?
thanks in advance
also, i can't seem to use activesync now either
and FYI im using WM2005 atm
hey, also, can i downgrade if i do upgrade my bootloader
Sounds like a major problem. I haven't tried restoring the bootloader from an SD card so I couldn't give you any direct advice. I'm sure someone with the expertise will be able to help you further.
Downgrading may help but I haven't done this before either.
Good Luck....

Your Radio ROM chip is probably faulty.
Had the same problem (read here)
My device went to repair centre.
Sascha
Problem:
use RUUWrapper.exe to Updata, final step, then Phone Screen stays in 0%, the RUU programs shows a 302 Error. when I did what it told me to, everythings happened again.
First happened when I updata my Radio from 1.51.00.00 to 1.47.00.00
and happened again when I updata the ROM (OS only)
Q:
1. How to solve this?
2. After I upgrade the Radio to 1.51.00.00 I can't hear the others clearly when pick up a phone. try to up the volume, but useless, which version will be OK?
3. any REG modify solution?
I try to modify the REG
HKEY_CURRENT_USER ->
ControlPanel ->
SoundCategories ->
InCall ->
InitVol ->
DWORD Data
6 to 9
but seems no change
I had the same problem and most likely noone will help you on this board.... I read the forum, then asked for help and still no educated replies... I feel like this forum is run by HTC producers and they make you brick the phone and force you to and go buy a new one !!!

This thread was hardly 1 hour old and you make a rather rude statement. This forum is supported by volunteers, not people that sit around all day waiting for posts to come in and find a solution that drops out of no-where.

You are not going to make any friends this way mate. If you want quick solutions then read all the material that's on here and search for the answer yourself.
If you don't want problems then leave your phone in its standard state.
WB
@camus_dvd: have you checked out the wiki? There may be a solution there. If not, you need to give us more info?
Have you ever successfully flashed before?
Give us Versions? Windows, ActiveSync, .NET, ROM, RUUWrapper (e.g. is it the custom or a standard shipped), etc.
Did you try removing the battery for a couple minutes?
Did you try connecting while in bootloader mode, instead of in normal state? (e.g. put phone in BL, THEN attached USB, then run updater)?
These answers will help us help you.
Oh, and about the volume issue, try using the google search link in my sig to search the forum for "hermes low volume tweak" or something like that. I had a similar problem, but cannot remember the tweak. I do not THINK It was the one you posted.
Heck - onew final edit. I got curious and did the searching. You will find a thread HERE and it references a tweak in the wiki HERE HERE . Hope this helps.

I spent 3 days reading the forum, trying all kinds of methods to unbrick it, however it still dead. Is it considered a quick solution ?
Anyways, I successfully flashed my device and made SUPER CID, so its fully unlocked. Thats the only flash I have done prior to upgrading the radio bootloader. I hold 2 computer science degrees and I could understand most of the stuff discussed on this forum, however it didnt solve the problem.
The reason I tried to flash my radio bootloader is because suddenly the phone started to freeze(about every 30 mins). I thought may be the operator has a new radio version so I need to upgrade in order to get the best connection and most importantly never have my phone freezed again.

Tried about 20 times, still unable to flash radio rom with any of the available versions. Always freezes at 0% thru RUU, if I use SD card method freezes in the 10-15% range. I am able to flash everythin, including SPL, operating system, but not the radio rom !!!

You can consider above answers very intelligent, however I did not get a single anser form POF or Olipro - people who actually created this software and know most of the tricks.
for me same problem, only that i can't use my device anymore( : I tried to install another rom, Hermes_WM6_WWE_vp3G_v3[1].61.0_ATT_Full.rar and Touch_I_interface_beta.zip and crashed. and now, i enter in bootloader, if i want to make super cid it tells me to connect the pda even if is connected. and if i try to install other roms is stuck on 0%

Flashed and superCID does NOT mean fully unlocked. If you can read programming and or networking text books, I don't understand what is so hard about the wiki?
If you read everything and actually tried to understand it all, then you would know that flashing the radio is inherently dangerous and that 9/10 times the radio is not the issue.

@hanissusa,
Why don't you just send your device back to the repair centre, foot the bill, and put it all down to experience? You may have a hardware problem that nothing on here might solve.
You might be better off going down that route than going through the pain of trying to sort it and not getting anywhere. Also stops you p**sing people off on here. You can't claim that just because you have had a bad experience we should all stop flashing our devices.
We are all aware of the risks and if we can't fix it then its put your hand in your pocket time and send it back to be repaired.
Good luck with it; hope it all works out.

thx a lot. I will try it, 'cause i'm tired to use all kind of stufs
my first SPL was 1.03 but after a try of upgrading ROM it was modifed in 2.03 and i think this is the problem. does anyone knows how to modify it?
how can i downgrade my SPL ?
pi$$ing people off ? hey chill back I am just giving experienced advice to other people, just as you do. The fact that our opinions are different does not mean that you are right and I am wrong.
Anyways, I have T-Mobile MDA, as far as I udnerstood HTC repair would not care to fix it ?

Have you called the repair centre to see whether they will fix it or not? Your worse case scenario is that they say no. There again they might say yes, especially if you are willing to foot the bill, or put you in contact with another company who can sort it out for you.
I really do hope you can get it fixed; however I think you have started out on the wrong footing on this board and you may well find that people on here now just don't want to help you out (please don't shoot the messenger).
Good luck with it.

You can't without a running OS setuped on your device. If you don't have the HardSPL you should try to flash with the default flasher AND a rom matching your CID.
If there is a rom matching your CID out you may have quite good chance to get your hermes back to live. Toying without hardspl is a really bad thing
and that hardSPL how can i do it?

I don't know. In my country I have a htc services and they say to me that my motherboard must be replaced because is to hard to change only radio chip and they only change all motherboard. For 350 Eur(+some Eur) I can by new Tytn. Now I use my pda in my home (in toalet) via wireles to look internet. Work's fine, but sometimes freeze OS and I must do soft reset.
ok guys , i might found a temp solution or maybe it will work permenantely with some one , but i need some one who have spare time and steel nerves coz i'm sick and tired of trying many files and roms and radios .
so any one is willing to start this experiment with his hermes and his spare-time lets begin .
first of all i want to declare that this method revived my radio and i used my device for one day just fine receiving and making calls . then the next day i decided to make a hard reset to see if the radio will stay working , and the result was the radio was dead .
here we go .
1.flash you device with GM360 gold edition http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329282 don't ask why just try it .
2.after the phone is flashed with gm360 and working ok with no radio or "no gsm" messege now you should flash your phone with your device manufacturer WM5 ROM .
3. to flash WM5 rom you need to follow mr.vanx guide for safe WM5 downgrade . http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=27&Itemid=26 here it is .
4. now after you've flashed WM5 successfully and your device is also working fine with it but still no radio or "no gsm" . you need to flash only radio to your device . no OS only the radio .
5. download this radio . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334697 and unrar it on some folder . and don't flash it yet to your device .
6 download Olipro RUUwraper 5.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298737 there u go.
7. now the files from step "5" which they are the radio 1.54 put the file ruuwrapper from step "6" in the same folder with them to start the radio upgrade using "RUUWrapper.exe" not "ROMUpgradeUt.exe" . when u run it you will have multiple choices , choose "Force Unsafe SSPL (not recommended)" . .
now the radio upgrade should go smoothly as it went for me the first time . after the radio upgrade is done u should be able to use ur radio fine .
now can some one take half the effort of me writing this long method and try it ? thanx for the feedback also .
good luck for all .

Just now I finished all, by your instruction, step by step. When do the last step, flashing radio rom it's stuck on 0%. Many thank's for help, but it does not work for me.

thx for your discription,I'll try your method as soon as i can(because ADSL isn't much available!!)
eraserbabyboy,
can you tell me when did this problem happen to you(i mean loosing GSM)??did it happen when you was flashing WM6 ROM??
I really want to know why this problem happen to me while i didn't have it before flashing??is flashing cause to a hardware problem???

Hamed I dont know what's happened with my hermes, because I get him with the no gsm error. I have a bootloader 1.09 with enable kitl mode. In PB I lose many, many night to boot os but without sucess. And post many question here, but without answer, a-h-t1 is the first men who try to help and meny 10x for that.
So, before 2 week I send my hermes to Imei-check and before few days I get it back with bootloader 1.01 mfg and instruction from imei teamroblem_Description: The radio chip is faulty 100%. Now the handset is usable as PDA only (wifi + bluetooth working too), but not as a phone (the GSM module refuse to answer/flash).
DO NOT attempt to upgrade the firmware in the phone with a firmware which has RADIO upgrade, as it will put the handset back to the brick mode!!!
Model is SVP3100.[/COLOR][/COLOR]
After that I put the SPL 2.30 Olipro to prevent any future damage, and continuing to "play" and experiment, because I don't have more than, to loose. I have P3300 who work's very nice....
It's possible to boot any OS without radio. (I use nbh tool 1.01 to extract nbh file to nb and after make Ruu_signed but without radio).Also try metod via SD card and same to you, stop when try to flash radio. Also it's happened on 12-13%(independed of the rom version) when start full RUU upgrade. And when try to flashing only radio they stop on 0%. On 12-13% ruu upgrade try to flash radio in this moment, and this is the end. I am not sure is this hardware problems, but imei (I dont belived too much) said YES. In win OS I don't have a imei identification (in device info/identity) and of course radio version is blank. Sometimes happened that os blocked(freeze) or device just totaly go to power off mode and I must to do soft reset. Is any way to totaly disabled phone function in registry? I mean that freeze when phone try to find network or sim, but I am not shure. Last night I open my devices, and get out motherboard, just to see this famously radio chip. It's not possible in "home made" to change yourself this chip. Only if I have a more lucky and found some broken hermes with ok motherboard for 100-150 eur...
I hope that my info just little help to you to know "mystery" about our problems.
And one more time 10x to a-h-t1!

but many thx for a-h-t1 and eraserbabyboy's help.now I want to try fix it in hardware way!!
but if anyone has idea about our problem please say here.i think it's going to be common problem,because i see many people in xda who has the same problem.
Read this, to see how I solve my problem. But I still have a hope, that it's not hardware problem and in the future I hope that someone will found software key to solve our corrupted radio.

ok,i think it was almost three months ago that i had posted my last post!!
you know my problem and i feel it has became a common problem for poeple who have hermes,unfortunately.
last week,i found a service man who believed that my phone's problem is fixable.
so i gave my pda to him,and because he lives in another city,i returned to mine and waited for him.
yesterday i phoned him,and this is what he said to me:
"first,I tried software methods,but the result was nothing!then I disassembled the device and changed the piece of RF of your ppc.it hung first,but now it loads the windows and find the antenna too!!but immediatly after finding,it hangs."
he has used the Dopod's RF in my htc TyTN and thinks that this problem(hanging after finding the antenna) is because of not matched radiorom.
I have good feel about his say,and i'm trying to help him find the correct radio rom,because he is so busy and cant search the internet to find the radiorom.so I've mailed him the link of wiki's radio rom for hermes and I hope someday this tragedy will finish but i'm not sure.
if anyone have comment about this case please help us,specialy about the RF,because I don't know anything about the Radio Frequency.
I HAD the EXACT same problem I Hermes would get stuck at 11% EVERYtime I tried to flash the OS rom with WM6!! The upgrade process would start and then [email protected]! 11% and I would get ERROR 262 (loss of communication) No FIX anywhere, even with site full of "supposed Hermes Fanboys" Nothing NOBODY knows nothing bout this issue. BUT I think I have found a fix (I have recovered twice gonna do it 1 more time to confirm METHOD)
1a
Its called a 1a brick. Look in the sticky brick section. like 170+ pages of this issue. I believe I have the same device. No GSM/ no imei no radio. Can flash rom's all day long, as long as rom doesnt include GSM. Try to flash ANY GSM does nothing, let it sit 10hrs... Nice free PDA, till i can figure out the wiki & there must be hope for me. Till then my wiz100 keeps rocking. Like the 8525, but wanted it more as a phone then just pda.

I hope you will fix your device,but when I read about your solution,I felt that guy who brought back to life your device,has just used a ROM whitout GSM,the way that we have been using since months ago.if I'm in mistake so tell us more.
The end of the Tragedy
o0o0k!!
as I've said in my post,the service man that I love! replaced the RF of my pda,but new problem was hanging after finding the antena!!
as he told me yesterday,he tried another used RF,but this time the TyTN's one and it worked) and there is no problem.so after 4 months nearly I can use my pda.
as soon as I can,I will go to get my device and test it myself.
be wait for my smooth experience!!

its full name is RFSP=Radio Frequency Signal Processor.it's one of ICs on your Hermes mainboard.it needs a professional to replace.I'll explain more early.
but if you have same problem and have tried all of the the wiki methods then you can test my solution.
Hi to all. I solve my problem. Change myself motherboard. I buy second hand hermes with no working keyboard for 100eu (latter I solve even this problems,bad contact on flat cable)) and change the motherboard to my spv m3100. It's stupid to say that I solve this with some software, it's was hardware
faulty (or maybe not???) and I am very happy, because I can use my hermes again.
Now I have a one, my "old" motherboard (hermes) who working like pda, wi-fi and bluetooth also working, but without gsm. If any wish to do some experiment I am here, waiting for instruction. Also, I add some picture from the phase of changing motherboard.
Information for "experimental" hermes:
HERM 200
IPL-1.04
SPL-2.30.Olipro
Rom version:Schap's 4.00
Rom Date: 10/15/07
Radio version: none
Protocol version: none
ExtROM version: 3.60.20070822
No cid, no imei, can't flash radio (stuck in 0%)
Can't flash OS which contains radio (stuck in 12-13%)
Regards for all on this forum.
Hi,
how are you?
do you know is it possible to replace just radiochip to fix our hermes??
How I see, in "home made" it's not possible, because we don't have a special equipment for that operation. Even if you have, but where you can found this famously radio chip? If you wont, I can open my "experimental" Hermes and make a picture of all chip and send to you, but I think that on ftp you have all manuals and pictures with the name of each part. I use this manuals to safely open my hermes and myself change the motherboard.
If I understand you, your hermes working like PDA, without gsm. Do you have a same problem, that devices turn off yourself and until soft reset they don't wont to wake up? Also phone function working very slowly, sometimes it's not possible to activate connection manager...etc
And if you agree, please to continuing disscusion on this thread. Thank's.

yes,i have same problem(but when i downgraded it to wm5 it works better and faster!).and like you I still have hope that it's not a hardware problem and wish to find solution.next week I will send my PDA to a serviceman to know what is his idea (maybe it'll work).

OK, I will waiting, and good luck.
Don't forget to inform us what's say serviceman....
Ok , i've joind the club of "no gsm" 3 months ago . and i've tried many many roms and radios and still no luck .
but in one try i've succeeded in flashing the radio to 100% and the radio worked very well and that night was 5 in the morning i danced on the desk when i saw it . i just couldn't belive it . i called my hermes 20 times from another mobile to hear the defult stupid WM5 ring tone , i missed it really
any way i couldn't believe my eyes , so i tried to do a hard reset to check if the radio will stay or go , it just vanished and again back NO GSM . i was disappointed really .
here's the way it succeeded with me and i was gonna post it for every one else as a solution but it happened with me once , and now it wont pass 0% .
here we go .
1.flash you device with GM360 gold edition http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329282 don't ask why just try it .
2.after the phone is flashed with gm360 and working ok with no radio or "no gsm" messege now you should flash your phone with your device manufacturer WM5 ROM .
3. to flash WM5 rom you need to follow mr.vanx guide for safe WM5 downgrade . http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?...27&Itemi d=26 here it is .
4. now after you've flashed WM5 successfully and your device is also working fine with it but still no radio or "no gsm" . you need to flash only radio to your device . no OS only the radio .
5. download this radio . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334697 and unrar it on some folder . and don't flash it yet to your device .
6 download Olipro RUUwraper 5.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298737 there u go.
7. now the files from step "5" which they are the radio 1.54 put the file ruuwrapper from step "6" in the same folder with them to start the radio upgrade using "RUUWrapper.exe" not "ROMUpgradeUt.exe" . when u run it you will have multiple choices , choose "Force Unsafe SSPL (not recommended)" . .
now the radio upgrade should go smoothly as it went for me the first time . after the radio upgrade is done u should be able to use ur radio fine .
now can some one take half the effort of me writing this long method and try it ? thanx for the feedback also .
good luck for all .

i guess it was my one last lucky chance , and i blew it up with hard reset .
anyway the only solution right now for no gsm is to change motherboard unfortunatley
Nudge!!! :S
I lost my Radio today, also the IMEI is gone.
This morning it was working and this afternoon it just stopped, tried a hard reset, still nothing. Just tried to flash 1.54, but that didn't work, now trying 1.51 and i see the progress bar, but it stays at 0%
I will leave it this way at my computer and come back later, but it looks the radiorom is broken
I can flash everything except the radiopart, i really seems broken, i've tried flashing with different SPL versions including 2.60 olipro en SSPL.
Also the phone seems to be a lot slower.
But prior to this all the phone did hang often for the last few weeks, so i guess it was already starting to breakdown
i also have a almost similar experience, can anyone verify that the phone is already breaking down??

What exactly is your problem? I've been noticing that about 70% of my calls fail or hang when I attempt to dial, when I try again they usually go through. I also have problems sending txt messages very often. Is my phone on its way out? I haven't even had this phone for a year.....pisses me off

My phone started to hang a lot last week, just for a minute and then come back again, also losing the phone connection. First i thought it was some software i installed. New rom, problem stayed the same.
And then yesterday i totaly lost the radio part, can't flash it in any way, but the phone still seems a lot slower then normal, like it's still looking for the phone part or something
I gues it's just broken, and as it is older then a year, i gues it is really trashed.....
So i think i'm gona buy a new accu for my old phone, my abbo ends in aug 2008, so no new phone before then
Helo everyone, im currently in limbo about what to do..
i've been using the official HTC WM6 rom on my 8525 with radio v1.40 i think.. i've been loosing signal 2 to times daily. I upgraded to Radio 1.57, everything worked much better then 48 hours later the radio went dead.
i've been using 2 different WinXP PCs but both have the same results so im sure its not the OS..
I've been reinstalling different OS without any problems but always reports NO GSM, i've tried running SSPL-HERM from within WM6 and run the flash from the radio 1.54.07.00 firmware here on XDA-Dev but still 0% progress on the "updating the rom".. error 262 update error..
The phone is using HRM100 IPL-1.04 SPL-2.10.Olipro
Could it be:
A - bad block? if yes, how do i fix it?
B - phone is bricked?
C - damaged radio (physical hardware)
Any help would be great!
I have EXACTLY the same problem....! Now I am worried that I'll get busted on the Warantee rap despite it being the offical T-Mobile release for WM6 for HERM300! Mine stopped working after 12 hours. I have a HERM300 and cannot flash the Radio back. Be careful... I think it's a bad block or something permanent. Trying to flash it back to WM5 and send it back for repair bit it's not looking so good at the moment. Will help you if / when I can.
Seems like all radio's starting to break
I didn't even flash mine and it is broken, can flash everything except for the radio part.
now using it like a normal PDA, using internet through bluetooth with my old phone.
Just 10 months to go before I can get a new phone, I don't think it will be HTC again, never got support from them, only from this website.
i found the best way to flash is by using the sd card method, I always use this method to flash my vario II

tried it, but freezes at like 10%, how do i go about repairing bad blocks?
i tried the SD card method, no good.. i checked the unit, no bad blocks =(
How did you check for bad blocks? Wanna do the same for mine. Cheers.
Try to use an earlyer RUUwrapper after exctract the .exe file. It solved my same problem. I tryed to flash Schaps 4.00 and stoped at 0% I extracted the 4.00 and the 3.60 roms and I overwrited the 4.00's ruuwrapper with 3.60's ruuwrapper and I launched it (4.00) I can flash with that ruuwrapper without problems I hope it works to you too
mine JasJam (shaps 3.54b) gives the same problem.no gsm signal and after try to upgrade radio,it stuck at 0% and now is always at the 3 colour screen also after off-on battery...what can I do..please Help me!!!!!!

I think your problem is bigger, because if you haven't got gsm signal than maybe your Hermes has bricked...
that means that I will never fix anymore my hermes????

I think you can unbick you hermes, but i don't know how exactly... I should read a lot here and ask befor do anything:

and here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick

Is it me or are suddenly lot's of TYTN's losing their radio en IMEI, i lost mine too now it is just like a pda, using my old phone with bluetooth for internet. Impossible to flash the radio. Os only works fine.
Yep! Dunno why. GSM appears to be dying, Just got mine repaired in the post from T-Mobile. Just did a quick MTTY check on it (info 8) and there is BAD BLOCK on it already!!! Repaired???? Not so sure. Should I risk HARD-SPL and flash the rom from WM5 to WM6?
