I have a bricked Hermes, I am not able to flash it.
Is it possible to flash a hermes, when it starts till the following picture ?
And I have no usb-connection via active sync, only with the Multi-Port TTY.
No I've read that I can flash it in the bootloader-modus with the command "wdatah " ?
So i pu in following:
USB>
USB>password 0000000000000000
HTCSPass1.CMˆËHTCEUSB>
USB>set 1e 1
USB>wdatah HERMIMG.nbh
Invalid parameter number!
USB>
So what is wrong ?
data is sent in blocks, you can't flash with mtty.
and how can I flash ?
I've also tried it with "hermimg.nbh" on the micro-sd card.
But it only shows loading... and then checking ... and nothing more.

Try to flash HTC 1.18 rom with bootloader 1.04 and run the RUU two times. If this doesn't work try to flash a radio using HERMflasher.

Aha this should work because the device was already in bootloader when we ran the RUU for a second time, how we got past CID check in the early days?
Makes sence to try this.
I try it...
Must I start it in bootloader-mode ?
and have I to activate active-sync or disable it ?

So, I've done it serveral times...
After the first time - Error222 : Device not responding
After the 2nd time - Error 250 - Update Error
and I have done it a 3rd time - Update Error again.
why can't i flash the hermes with my micro-sd ?

i have the same, except that the reason is that i touched the usb cable and it disconnected and when i try to put the firmware, i have error 260
yes, I have also ERROR260 and not 250. Sorry...
And what have you done with your device ?
I have the same problem! It seem that there in no connection between the pc and pda... Other methods to update? I tried with the micro-sd too... It starts, but when it checks, so it freeze... Maybe the CID of the pda and the ROM's one is different?

I have the same problems. Put WM6 on my device. Now I have the Error 222. Also when I put HERMIMG on a SD card he do nothing. The difference between your device and mine is, that i boot the device but can't change any data. Don´t know what to do....
I am just trying the hermflasher.
Does anyone know how long the flash will last ?
There is no progress shown - only FLASH NBH on the device.
You should not flash a NBH, you should flash a radio: extract GSM.nb from the NBH file and flash it using the command 'hermflasher -F radio GSM.nb'.
@pof :
I've done what you said - and it works.
At start i have the strange screen (like a tv without antenna) but then it works.
Now I have : ROM-Version 1.25.207.2
Funkempf. 1.03.03.10
Prot. 32.34.7010.01H
Thanks a lot for your help.
And now, I consider to put another ROM on it (WM6 ?). to get at least a normal screen at startup.
First consider puting HardSPL to avoid bricking it again
Then flash any NBH containing the splash screens and you'll get the boot screen back

here is what I've done and what happened:
my ROM was HTC 1.18.255.3 07/22/06 with bootloader 1.04 then I ran "HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe" on the device but I didn't use "HTC_Hermes_Radio_for_SIMunlock_v1.16.00.69" to save time and i wanted a CID unlock only.
after "SUCCESS!" message from "HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe", I connected my device via USB to PC and started to upgrade to Cingular 1.31.502.1 08/30/06 with aku 2.6 and bootloader 1.06 but when I get the "ID ERROR",without disconnecting the USB, I switched back to ugrading to previous ROM HTC 1.18.255.3 and the Processe started with no problem untill 98%, then suddenly upgading interrupted a message came saying connection error or somting like that!
since then my device is stuck on windows mobile screen and I've tested solutions in the "Hermes_Upgrade Problems" page and tried using the "Hermes SD Card flashing" method, But It seems impossible to flash my phone agian.
Help me PLEASE,HELP
someone help me please!
POF can't you help me please
I think Pof is away until 3rd december, I have the similiar problems with my second hermes, if you have then use mtty to see if you have an corrupted cid using info 2.
Do you have the original rom to go back on if so that will fix your problem.
I've used mtty to send some commands to my device and it answers to some of them but It just stop responding when I type "info 2" or "info 3".
and i tried this in mtty:
"
USB>checkimage
IPL CRC checksum = 0x9FCC6BEB
SPL CRC checksum = 0x3BF03635
CE CRC checksum = 0xC0E1751A
ExtROM CRC checksum = Total Block= 1024
dwBlockIndex= 1024
Address Error1!!!
Get checksum ERROR!!!
0x0

again It stop responding
also tried upgrading, no matter which ROM I try, it just can't connect to device.
and thanx for your relpy.

from what I've found out my device hang up and stop responding when it gets the "INFO 2" or "INFO 3" or "TASK 32" or perhaps any thing involving CID so no upgrading utility is able to connect to it, the only thing is to connect to it using "mtty.exe" which I've tried any command found here, but no use again.

Wrong, you also need a patched radio to CID unlock. Running only the exe file without the patched radio has no effect on the unit.

HI,
I have same exactly problem on my spv m3100: since sept06 I've tried every kind of Unlock software,upgrade ROM and method found in xda..In mtty bootloader (spl 1.04) respond at every command but not "info 2","info 3" and "task 32".Sd card method works but if you try to upgrade other ROM,in your screen "loading..." and then "checking..." hangs on because the ROM upgrade must to match CID (I suppose..).I'll wait the next ROM Upgrade and ORANGE won't release it until gen07..

it seems your problem is like mine if so, I don't think ANY normal upgrade can solve your prolem 'cause it can't connect to it.
so don't wait and send your device to service center, if you can.
I'm in your same conditions:there's no repair center here so I have to wait Orange who release a upgrade Rom (I hope asap..).
Ok...I have been through all the posts about upgrading etc. I still have a problem and I'm sure that I'm overlooking something....but I can't figure it out on my own. Here is what is happening (it does the same thing with every RUU that I've used...the DST fix...upgrading to WM6....etc)
1. I run the RUU and let it go through its routine (extract files, verify info on pc, etc.)
2. I check the box that says I have read the readme and click next
3. The next screen appears and it has the following steps:
Connect to the USB cable (check)
Establish an ActiveSync Connection (check)
Disable standby and hibernation on PC (check)
Make sure batter is > 50% (check)
Then I check the box and click next
4. I pick the update and click on the update button
5. I verify that I want to upgrade my phone from ROM verion x.xx.xxx to x.xx.xxx and click next
6. The program tells me that I am finally ready to update...and if I am sure I want to proceed to click next...so I click next
7. As soon as I click next...the progress bar comes up on my pc and my phone goes into standby mode (no bootloader...just standby). The progress bar never moves.
8. After a minute or two the RUU give me the ERROR [260]: Connection
9. I reboot my device and repeat steps 1-8
10. I reboot my device and my computer and repeat steps 1 - 8.
Now if I leave my device connected to the usb and close out the RUU after it gives me the ERROR [260], and then run the RUU again...when it is first verifying the information on my pc (before it asks any questions and before it tells me to connect my device) it will throw the device into bootloader mode. If I try to keep running the RUU while the device is in bootloader mode it give me the error that my device is not connected. I have tried and tried...maybe one of ya'll can help me. Thanks in advance

Some questions:
.) Is your desktop PC running XP or Vista?
If you have a firewall running, close it.
.) If you running Vista check this guide:
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=23&Itemid=27
.) What updates did you try to flash?
.) Did you install Olipros bootloader first?

XP
No firewall
I tried to flash the WM6 from AT&T I assume its beta
and no did not install the Olipros bootloader
Ok...I think I found out how to do this...Ya'll can tell me if I'm screwing something up.
I go through all the steps listed above until it gets to the progress screen. When it gets there I manually put the the device in bootloader mode (Power, side ok, and reset). Once I do this...the progress bar starts moving. I will let you know if this works...
Hmmmm
Its not the way it should work but if it works its ok
You should have installed Olipros HardSPL first and then try to flash an official rom. If its working then something with your download is wrong.
What ROM is on there now?
Has the phone been CID unlocked?
Oli's CustomRUU is better, you may want to unpack the ROM and put the NBH in a folder with Oli's RUU and then do the upgrade.
BTW, gerald_s is right, you should not have to do that... what you may want to do is put the phone in Bootloader mode manually (while not connected to the PC), then plug in the USB, then start the RUU. That helps some people with 260 error.
I've got the same damn issue... it's driving me crazy. I had this occur when I flashed my Hermes100 from the stock version to Custel's. After about 15 starts and reboots it took. I'm now trying to get to Vp3G's 3.60 and it continues to give me the 260 error.
I am trying to figure out how to fomat my micro, but really hoping to find a solution over cable.
Hermes 100
IPL 1.04
SPL - 2.10 Olipro
Any suggestions?
You may be trying to flash a rom that includes the radio rom. What is your device? Is it possible that your device is a new x01ht with radio 1.14 and radio bootloader 0182? If yes, then you will get this error when you try to flash a rom with this method because during the flash it will be disconnected by the radio bootloader because it is not overwriteable. If you flash using the NBH file on the microSD, it will skip past radio and radio boot and just flash the other parts of the file.

If you are running windows XP, just connect the card to the computer, open MY COMPUTER, right-click the removable disk that is your microSD and then click format. Default in windows xp is to format using FAT32 filesystem which is perfect.
The thing is... if you dont know how to format a drive in Windows, should you be flashing your device yourself?
Which Solution???
I've got a Softbank X01HT with:
S/N: HT639
SuperCID <--- result of checking by mtty
IPL: 1.04
SPL: 2.10Olipro
GSM: 1.47.00.10
OS: 3.54.07 WWE
I tried to flash with new Schap 3.54c but the process would not be done coz ERROR 262 or ERROR 302. Fortunately, after failure of flashing, my device is still normal running. Then I tried to flash radio 1.51.00.10 but I got the same above. Once again, I have just tried to flash splash screen and I got the same result too. It mean my device can not upgrade anything !
Anybody here show me a solution that help my device to become a normal device, I mean it will be able to flash anything ROM as it would be! Don't tell me READ and READ, I had read so much . And don't tell me use MTTY again SPL1.01MFG, I think that is a final solution

I forgot to tell that, I had flashed through extra memory card yet, and could be done!
But I wanna flash ROM against CustomRUU through MS Active Sync as I had used before. Can you help me
i have a problem very similar to Chris. when i check the box "yes activesync is syncronised", and then the progressbar shows up and the phone goes into standby.
i've turned standby of in powermanagement options.
my os is XP
i use active sync v4.5
and this is first time i try this.
i've read something about this bootloader, i can get there but then i cannot sync with active sync. so i kinda stuck.
have been searching the forums and this was the same problem as mine but i don't understand your solutions.
//KufrA
--Problem solved--
i did all things without activesync,
1. start phone in bootloader
2. do the install
3. wait 0% to 100%, and done.
is there a problem with active sync or why do i have to do anything with it at all?
First of all, Hi!
Now, how do I clear my nike to the point where it has nothing on it?
I need to do this because I got stuck in the process of flashing it with HARDSPL 1.22 that I need in order to flash a new rom!
I tried everything, I followed the guide on how to do HardSpl, but got stuck at step 8 of the tutorial, the process bar is constantly at 0%, and followed by recovery steps!
I do not need them because everything works just fine, only with the original rom still on!
So I want to flash a rom, but am unable to!
Please help me!
Even if my solution is deleting everything ( I do not mean a Hard Reset- Did that 10 times ) and starting from 0!
But this is one thing I never did, and do not know where to start or what to do!
So any good soul out there willing to help, please do so!
Thanks in advance!
Ok let's try to help, can you tell us more details about your phone, model 16 or 20 keys, rom and radio.
If this is not clear just send me a pm
Regards Rataplan
Thanks, mine is a 16 key version.
Radio 1.65.28.25
Rom: 2.09.405.1
Rom date: 30.08.2008.
Protocol version: 25.98.40.07H
And I did the first few steps of flashing the HardSpl
and now it says SPL 1.22
and further more, on start up screen it says "TEST ONLY NOT FOR SALE"
BTW: I was looking of flashing your ROM but as I said, no can do!
HELP
Ok from what I see it looks to me that you already flashed a rom, just one question is it telling SPL 1.22 or SPL 1.22 Hard
just SPL
That is my problem!
Any solution!?
You need to start all over again, do you have a Niki, you can see that under the battery
Okay just read your post in the other thread, that cleared a lot of things, just do it all over again and use 1.15 instead of 1.22 maybe that will work for you, btw from what I can see you didn't do anything wrong, I also flashed directly the 1.22 and from me that works.
Just keep me informed how it goes.
Regards
The phone is niki100
There is no simlock!
What do I need to do?
Refer me to a tutorial, or just tell me everything here?
And thank you for the help so far!
Edit:
OK, I did what you said, and so far works!
But, could you please explain to me a couple of things!
1. download the attached files DONE
2. REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !! DONE
3. connect usb cable DONE
4. copy sspl-1.16-nike.exe to your device and run it (usb cable must be connected!) DONE
5. after a few seconds "USB" appears on the display DONE
6. unplug and replug the usb cable DONE
(OPTIONAL, better to skip it! step 7. if you only want to test the sspl try flashing the attached splash screen by running ROMUpdateUtility.exe from flash-splash-niki) SKIPPED
8. you can now flash the hardspl-1.15mfg-nike.nbh by running ROMUpdateUtility.exe from flash-uspl-niki
AND NOW here is my question, in the file FLASH-USPL-NIKI there is a uspl-1.16-nike.nbh file, but here in this step it says to flesh the 1.15mfg(wich I downloaded), so do
i have to delete the 1.16 and replace it with the 1.15mfg or what?
9. after installing the hardspl you can flash any rom (rom cook project here)
Okay I think I kow what you mean, you must flash the 1.15mfg, do not copy it to your phone, you don't have to delete the 1.16.
EUREKA, it worked!
Flashed your F01-10 rom!
Now I only did the 1.15 HARD Spl
Please suggest to me a radio?
I tried flashing the Radio_1.71.09.01_25.75.40.02K and it got to 100% and then said FLASH WRITE ERROR, so I was stuck wit the old radio!
AND OMG, THE ROM IS WONDERFUL
Thank you so very very much!
I need help, i have flashed a rom but now my niki stops at the radio details. It doesn't boot to windows mobile.
How do i reflash a working rom now?
How long have you waited before taking out the battery?
It takes a while to load!
It takes a while to load yes, but 5-10 minutes is to long for it to start to boot.
It has passed 1 hour now.
Anyone knows how can i fix my niki?

You're welcome for the rom, about the radio if you want to try the 1.71 radio you have to go back to an older radio before you flash the 1.71.
I suggest to use a 1.5.. radio, that will do the trick.
For now you can always put Hardspl 1.22 on your phone, some people are recommended that if you flash a wm 6.5 rom, personally I don't see any difference.
Btw The radio I use is 1.65.29.22

Only afterwards proceed to the following :
First of all....try and use Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Second of all....do not try to use task 29 because its a bit more complicated and it involves some drivers and so on!
Use this little thing here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5848003&postcount=19 and after its completed....flash a proper radio something like 2.08.50.xx which you can find on Radio dedicated section here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
After all these....flash a custom ROM but be careful to be one suited with your radio! Which is a radio appliable for most of custom ROMS BUT be VERY careful!
Another thing.....do not flash from SD Card....Use the CustomRUU tool and flash it via ActiveSync!
Do you get any particular error message? When in bootloader mode, does "usb" show at the bttom of the screen? If so, try moving to a different usb port, preferably at the rear of the pc, or try different cable or even different pc. If still no luck, try uninstalling and then re-installing the latest version of Activesync.
The White Screen issue sounds like the incorrect radio version for the rom. I'm not familar with the details of the particular rom, but there are certain rom/radio combinations that will do that if they do not match eg running a 2.10 based rom with a x.xx.51.xx radio. The phone works intially until a reset and then hangs.

Thanks for the replay
I tried, flashing by activesync. i flashed it the first time by hspl (the tread you link to) and then by activesync. But like i said, the hd2 stops at a white screen, so i tried by every possible way i could think of. Also i tried task 39 by the tool you mention, but it still does not work.
But i will correct my ts.
@clydeb1
I tryd to flash different radioroms, but if it try by activesync it wont start and by sd-flash it stocks at 98%, but i will try a different active sync
Okay,
I tried the following options:
- I installed a newest activesync and tried to instal an new rom under windows xp. The update stocked at 0% and i tried to install radio rom, with the same results
- I installed the windows mobile on windows 7, and tried the same as in windows xp, and still the same results.
Then i tried flashing every rom from the site by the sd-method (after every bad flash i formatted the sd-card with fat32)
With the sd method the phone stocked at 99% and then gives the next images:
00018003
LEOIMG.nbh - Fail
Radio_V2Fail
Update terminate
update fail

IS there any one how has a solution for this problem
Ok....try from the beginning!
1.Get from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433 HSPL2_RUN.zip (extract the content in a folder named hspl ).2
2. For Windows 7 you need Windows Mobile Device Center ( WMDC ) NOT ActiveSync!! Get it here http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
3. Make sure in WMDC settings the USB connection is checked!
4. Take out your battery....insert it again! Start your phone while keeping pressed the Vol Down button! This will get you into bootloader! The screen should display USB on the lower part of the screen! (evidently connected to computer )
5. Flash HSPL2 select 2.08 version
6. Use that tool I recommended earlier.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3&postcount=19
7. Enter again the bootloader and flash a Radio ROM ( try 2.08.50.xx ) via WMDC!
8. Flash either NRGZ 21898 or Cleanex 21898 versions ( I recommend these in particular because they work with the radio mentioned above and are also stable ROMs ).
P.S. Take out your SD card and SIM card while performing all these steps!
Hope you will solve it!

Thanks for the advise
I did every step. The first problem is: WMDC doest say there is a connection, while windows 7 say there is a connection also i see usb in the lower part of the screen.
In the same sequence as you right above. the hspl2 says it worked fine, but when i reset the boatlooder still says it has hspl 1.42 in stead of 2.08. The tool you recommended did't start. and says update error.
do you know something else i could do (or anyone else)
Give the phone to someone who can get it to work??
Give me your SD-CARD serial number.
I'ma make a goldcard for you.
sd-card max to 4gb!
And then try flashing stock nld 1.66 rom using sd-card.
Because you tried to fix it flashing a 'original rom?' from sd I think I know what's your problem.
Did you use a Dutch shipped rom while trying to fix or a WWE one?
If you flash a shipped rom from storage card it restores the original SPL and removes HSPL !
Try flashing a Dutch shipped rom one more time from storage card, it will restore the original SPL made for your device.

@Korenbloem,
A simple hardreset would have fixed your issue as well.
Instead of all kind of panic experiments like mtty/ flashing radios/roms from sd you could have come to me and I would have helped you.
You flashed a very old rom from the rom archive but never the less that rom is intensivily tested by me and the beta team.
I have no idea what kind of software you installed/tweaks you did or anything else but also with installing the wrong software it could cause the rom not to boot anymore.
Sorry to tell you but these 'bricking' stories are mostly caused by unexperiened users and it
making me sad to see more people are opening threads like this blaming a rom and causing a panic reaction in public destroying our work.
I realy hope you fix your device and I will try to help you but this isn't a rom issue.

Thanks for the adivse, but i already tried that with an orginal rom, but i will try it again, mabey there is a difference with a shipped rom.
The first thing i did was a hard reset, but that did't worked. (the phone is in this shape for 1 month now).
Second. I am not blaming you or anyone. I flashed the wrong radio rom i think (cant remember witch one) And that is my own fault. I never wanna make the suggestion that it is because of youre rom.
I took a risk by flashing my phone. and i is my responsibility.
Edit: I tried a shipping rom nld. But it gives the same error as always, only after 7%. But thanks for the advise
@ Xmoo, First of al thank you that you want to help with a sollution. But what does that mean a goldcard and what are the consequences of using it.
Laurentius26 helped me with fixing my device.
The problem was the radio. and by flashing a factory rom from t-mobile, the hspl was reset to spl 2.00. After that he flashed a orginal shipped rom (the orignal one from my device). And the rom is fixed again SPL 1.66 is now on the device.
Laurentius thanks for al the help!!!!!
HD2 bricked?
Hi, I urgently need your help. I used my hd2 on a vodafone branded rom 1.44. Last week I installed a Vodafone NLD 1.72 rom , + froyostone 3.4 Rom,kernel 8.5 (with hspl). Yesterday my touchscreen has stopped fully .. . The next, I've been in touch with HTC and they will pick up my phone tomorrow for repair. I have to remove hspl ofcourse .. so I happily try to flash official vodafone rom from the SD card, did nothing 1.72, 1.48 seemed to do until I restart and got an ROM code error. What to do: ( I am pretty desperate now .. when you start you get an exclamation point and then 'not allow' and then the tricolor. Is this due to the lack of the original 1.44 ROM? Apologies for this begging post and my poor English but I hope that someone has a solution to unbrick this device so he can up picked by HTC.

Do you have a branded Leo? If so, enter bootloader (remove battery, press volume down, insert battery), connect via usb (maybe you have to wait for driver installation), start the latest *.exe from your operator/carrier...

Maybe it is because you flashed the wrong stock rom.
You should find the CORRECT STOCK ROM for your device, otherwise you need a gold card

The 1.66 ROM you posted above has radio version 2.06.51.07 with it. So have you considered trying to flash that radio version and then flash the ROM. I know if you get the ROM to flash it will flash that radio anyway. But you seem to think you flashed a wrong radio so just thinking out loud here.
Hello,
at first I like to say, that I've read lots of threads concerning freezes, false flashed roms, etc. but I don't found a thread which deals with my problem. In fact of this I opended a new thread.
What is the problem?
- The HD2 hangs up with a white screen while booting.
What things are still working?
- I'm able to go into bootloader mode (Vol-Down + Power)
- I'm able to get a USB Connection through the bootloader mode
The self analyzed main problem
- I've got a broken Radio Rom
- I've got SPL 1.42 (no HSPL)
What I've tried
- I tried to flash a Rom due to CustomRUU (Cooked & Ship Rom)
-- Effect: No success. Hang's up at 0% (I think due to SPL)
- I tried to flash a ROM by SD-Card over bottloader.
-- Effect: It load's the setup. Trys to install, but fails with the Radio part. (Radio Update failed)
- I'm able to get in MTTY an do a "Task 29". And try to flash again.
-- Effect: Task 29 works well. But flashing still fails at RadioROM Update.
- I've tried to get a connection to the WMDC and try to flash over UpdateUtility
-- Effect: The WMDC doesn't recognize my HD2. (Even if the bootloader menu shows up a USB connection.)
- I tried to get HSPL (1.42, 1.66, 2.08). I tried all versions. HSPL, HSPL2 & HSPL 3.
-- Effect: HSPL finds my HTC. I can select the version. But while flashing HSPL it stop with an critical error. (Flow: 00000006 Errorcode: 00000014)
So is there anybody how knows a way to restore my RadioROM? I tried lots of things but now I really don't know what to do.
I hope you can understand me (incause of my english skills) and that you'll have some more ideas.
With best regards,
Raffi
Lets wait for the pro's advice!
But if u can access bootloader, not all is lost.. and HD2 is not bricked
I had nearly the same Problem. The only difference was that i could install HSPL.
Something you can try: disconnect the battery for some hours and then flash from SD-Card. After some tries i got mine back to work

that's correct, it doesn't need to connect to wmdc, when they say to get an activesync connection, they only mean a usb connection. if you start the update whilst it IS connected to wmdc, the first thing it does is disconnect and then put the phone into bootloader. you are helping things along by entering bootloader yourself. a little confusing.
that being said, i suspect it won't work. i've seen a few threads where the radio prevents anything flashing, and they never seem to conclude to anyone's satisfaction.
i would probably go for the goldcard method, but you might need a working winmo phone to get the sd cid. an eveningsreading ahead of ya.

I really don't know, but I think I've got a goldcard. So I've 2 micro-SDs. With the first I'm unable to flash anything. The second I made goldcard some flashs ago. I really thought Goldcard would be only work for one flash. But with the second sd-card, which I made goldcard once ago, I'm able to initiate a flash. (But it stops at the Radio-Update.)
Question 1:
How to proof if it's a Goldcard.
Question 2:
I've heard about "JTAG". A saw that it's a piece of hardware. Are there any reports, at this moment, about successful repairs of HD2s with JTAG?
1 no idea, but i do know it stays gold until you format it.
2 there are a few threads about it, look in the tmous section, there are one or two in there too.
i thought it might not help.
have a browse through previous posts by xmoo, he has helped some situations regarding a stuck radio, though no promises.

Nice tip, but to my detriment i don't know which version exactly was the shipped one. I received one of the first HD2 in germany from tmob. I think it was something 'bout 1.43.But I really don't know. And you're sure that the original ROM will refresh the broken Radio?
is one sd card bigger than 4gb? 8 and especially 16gb cards are not much use for flashing.

Like already said, both are 2GB SD-cards.
I think the problem arised because you tried to flash a custom ROM without HSPLing (or Gold Carding or SSPLing) first.
You don't need the origional shipped ROM, all you need is to go to HTC Germany's site and download a T-Mobile ROM. You can either put your phone into Bootloader Mode, connect to your computer and run the ROM exe file or use the SD Card method.
It should flash properly and you should have the T-Mobile Germany ROM, RADIO and SPL.
In future if you want to flash a ROM, then read the chef's instructions. If you are sure you want to flash that ROM, then read the instructions again.

This is a solution for sure, I had the same problem.
Search in tmobile site or ask them for their first german rom.
Ok, I downloaded a Original Tmo-Germany ROM from HTC. But same errors. Over Update-Utility >> Error 262 at 0% after some minutes. Over SD-card: Update starts. Progressbar runs. And then >> Radio_ failed.

You must try the old-first tmo german rom that they loaded in the phone.Not just a tmo german rom!
When I had the same problem and I flashed a current rom, the problem remained until I flashed the first old rom.
Ok, I got the first and original rom. But it also fails at the Radio Update. But i found a friend of my friend who's got a HD2, too. So i'll try it with the goldcard method...
